Chapter 44: A Visit to Kaede Takasaka
"Mrs. Tomosaka, the main reason for asking you to come out this time is to hope that you can give me Mr. Tomosaka's handouts. Actually, when I left Suruga-juku, Mr. Tomosaka promised to give me this handout as a parting gift......"
"Ono-kun, I understand what you said, but the place where we live has been cordoned off by the police, and so far I have been staying in a hotel with my children. There's really no way to help you find this handout......"
Mrs. Tomosaka, who was full of sorrow, couldn't help but cry as she spoke. Ever since Sousuke Tomosaka was taken away by the police, Mrs. Tomosaka felt that her world had been completely destroyed. Mr. Tomosaka, the family's sole source of income, was taken away by the police, and even the house they rented had been seized by the police. Now Mrs. Tomosaka can only live in a hotel with her son, waiting for her husband's whereabouts, and at the same time making ends meet by eating his old money, and life is quite difficult. But this Ono-kun actually came to the door at this time to beg for temptation, which is really not humane at all.
"I'm sorry, Xiaole is still waiting for me to go back, if it's okay, I'll leave first!"
Since the words were not speculative, Mrs. Tomohan did not intend to stay here any longer, she stood up and saluted Ono, and then left the café without looking back.
Ono-kun, on the other hand, sat in place, looking at Mrs. Tomohan's back in disappointment and anger, with a complicated expression on his face. The palm on his knee clenched into a fist involuntarily.
……
In the afternoon, when Shuichi Hayashi and Miki arrived at Morimura Middle School, it was close to the end of school. As soon as they entered, they met Principal Morimura, who was saying goodbye to the students at the school gate.
"Lin Police Department, are you here to pick up the classmates of the Cangke Division?"
As soon as Principal Morimura saw Lin Xiuyi, he immediately asked enthusiastically.
"Principal Morimura, I heard that Reina has a classmate who hasn't come to class for a long time, can you ask what the reason is?"
Lin Xiuyi bowed his head to Principal Morimura, and then inquired about the situation of Reina's classmate Takasaka Kaede.
"Lin Police Department, you're asking about Takasaka-san, right? Is something wrong?"
Hearing Lin Xiuyi take the initiative to ask about Gao Hanfeng's situation, Principal Morimura couldn't help but feel nervous for a while, the other party was a criminal police officer who searched a class, if he targeted someone, he would not be a good one.
"Ah...... Please don't be too nervous.,I'm only asking about this because of Reina's relationship.,Reina seems to care about this Takasaka-san.。 Can I visit Takasaka-san?"
Lin Xiu asked Principal Morimura with a smile.
"Well, if that's not the case, our Arai teacher is about to go to Takasaka's house to see the situation, why don't she take you there!"
Principal Morimura called Mr. Arai over as he spoke, Lin Xiu had already known Mr. Arai when he came to school last time, and after some communication between the two, Lin Xiu invited Mr. Arai into the car. Then everyone went to Takasaka Kaede's house in the same car to find out.
It's a pity that it's the rush hour after school at this moment, and the situation on the road is not very good, and the distance from Takasaka's house is not far away. Therefore, when Lin Shuichi and the others came to Takasaka's house, they saw that Miki and Moriyasu Rei also came here at the same time.
"Kura-san, Moriyasu-san, are you also here to visit Takasaka-san?"
As soon as Mr. Arai got out of the car, she asked as if Reina and Moriyasu asked.
"Yes, Ah Feng hasn't been to school for a few days, and we are a little worried, so we want to come and have a look after school!"
After Mori Baoling saw Mr. Arai and Lin Xiuyi and the others, she hurriedly saluted. And Reina didn't expect what she said last night that her brother would be so concerned.
"Is Takasaka-san at home?" asked Arai-sensei about Reina and Rei Moriyasu.
"I don't know, we just got here!"
At the suggestion of Lin Xiuyi, Mori Baoling came to the door of Takasaka Kaede's house, and then pressed the doorbell.
"Ding-dong......"
Half a minute passed, and there was no response inside. So Mori pressed it again,
"Ding-dong......"
A minute later, just when everyone thought that Kaede Takasaka was not at home. Takasaka's voice rang out from the doorbell.
"Who is it?"
"Ah Feng, you're at home, it's really good, you haven't been to school for the past few days, and we're all worried about death!" Mori Baoling heard Gao Hanfeng's voice, and then said with concern.
I don't know why, but after a long while, Takasaka Kaede's voice came from the microphone at the door.
"Oh...... Lingling-chan, I ...... I'm not feeling well these days, and I can't afford to take time off for a while, so ...... Don't worry, I'll be back to class soon!"
Takasaka Kaede replied hesitantly.
"Takasaka-san, how is your body, is it serious, can you let me take a look?" Mr. Arai asked with concern.
"Ah...... It's okay, I'm almost fine with some medicine, you guys...... You guys go back first, I'm in the bathroom now, it's not convenient to open the door...... Sorry!"
"That's no way, Ah Feng! When you get better, let's congratulate you on your birthday in the old place! By the way, that Kurashia classmate also cares about you too, and he came with him this time, do you want to invite her to see her next time?" Mori Baoling felt that the last time she had a little unpleasant trouble with Takasaka Kaede, this time she came with guilt, so she naturally remembered what happened last time.
"Hmm...... No problem, so be it, I'll definitely go then, I won't talk about it today, sorry ......"
After a busy sound, Takasaka Kaede in the house hung up the phone, leaving everyone looking at each other at the door of Takasaka's house.
To be honest, Lin Xiuyi's impression of this Takasaka is really not good, everyone came for her hard work. But it's rude not to even let the door in, isn't it? It's rare that Reina is worried about her.
"That, maybe Ah Feng is really uncomfortable, she's not usually like this!" Mori Baoling said with some embarrassment to cover up for her friend.
"Don't Takasaka-san's relatives live here?" asked Lin Xiuyi curiously.
"Hey, Ah Feng has lived abroad since she was a child, and when she first arrived at school, she couldn't even speak Japanese very well, but it is said that she flies back to her parents every time she has a vacation. So usually Ah Feng lives here alone, and occasionally someone from the cleaning company will come to help her tidy up her room......"
Lin Xiu nodded clearly, and then invited everyone to get into the car together. But just before he got into the car, his eyes suddenly swept to the place where Takasaka's house was stacking garbage, and saw that several plastic bags there were damaged, which looked particularly eye-catching, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help frowning, and didn't say anything......
