After the party, the neighbors began to pack up their things and go home, and Yasu Fukuda and Nanako Yoshino also returned to their rental house after saying goodbye.

Fukuda looked at the time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and it would take more than an hour to get to Kyoto by train from here, and then it would take more than ten minutes to walk to his place of work.

Although the nightclub doesn't open until 4 o'clock in the afternoon every day, Fukuda Kang usually has to go out at more than 2 o'clock.

So Fukuda Kang began to pack his things and prepare to go out to catch a train.

Looking at her well-dressed boyfriend, Miss Yoshino seemed to be speechless.

When the boy was changing his shoes at the entrance, Miss Yoshino finally couldn't help but say, "Akang, aren't you really going to try it again?" ”

Fukuda Kang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "Haven't we all discussed this issue, you also know that my grades are not good, and there is definitely no hope for a prestigious university." Instead of repeating a year to go to those universities that don't enter the stream and wasting a few years in vain, it is better to come out and work now. ”

Nanako Yoshino threw the things in her hand on the ground in anger and said, "Excuses, what you said is all excuses, in fact, you just want to sing, so you don't want to continue to go to college, right?" ”

Hearing this, Fukuda Kang hurriedly said to his girlfriend comfortingly: "Nanako, don't be angry, you know that singing has always been my dream, and I'm working hard for it, aren't you also very supportive?" And my brain is really not the material for reading, the current economic situation is so poor, graduates of prestigious universities may not be able to find a decent job, not to mention me, a guy who only has third-rate hope even if he repeats. ”

Nanako got up when she heard this and said, "Akang, I know you like singing, and I hope to develop in this. But we have to face the reality, singing can't feed our family in the future, can you sing for the rest of your life? How many big stars have been in the past, and how are they now? After the popularity is gone, it is not necessary to find another way out. I won't stop you from singing if you want to, but we have to live first, and we can't fill our stomachs with ideals alone. ”

Yasu Fukuda was blushing when his girlfriend said it, and he took out his □□ from his pants pocket and said, "Nanako, this is my □□." In the past few months, I have been singing in nightclubs, and I have saved some money, you see that I can still take care of our lives by singing. ”

Nanako Yoshino sent □□ back to her boyfriend and said, "I don't want your money, I want you to think about our future lives." We are going to get married, we need a house, we will have a baby in the future, and the baby needs to be taken care of and a stable environment to grow up. You're 20 years old now, so young and have a good voice, of course you can sing anything, but what will happen when you get older, you've seen a nightclub with forty or fifty years old. Akan, we are human and we will grow old, and I don't want our future to be nothing. ”

Fukuda Kang was a little overwhelmed when he heard this, he just stepped out of school and went out into society last year, and left the small city of his hometown with a longing and ambition to follow his girlfriend here.

Although the real life is far from being as good as he imagined, being able to work hard for his ideals makes Fukuda Kang feel that no matter how hard it is, it is worth it.

But I don't know when it started, but his girlfriend, who has always supported him to stick to his dreams, gradually changed her attitude.

Nanako began to encourage him to repeat his studies, or to learn a trade somewhere, saying that in this way he would be able to secure his future life.

But Fukuda didn't want to waste that time, he now has to go to work every night, and when he comes back from midnight, he basically sleeps until the afternoon, where he has time to study something.

Nanako can't understand Fukuda Yasu's thoughts, in her opinion, this guy can spend more than 2 hours a day practicing singing and practicing his voice, how can he not have time to learn things, but he is just shirking and making excuses.

And Fukuda Kang feels that he is becoming more and more confused about his girlfriend, why does she have such a big opinion on her current life? Why is she so pessimistic about their future? These Fukuda Kang can't figure it out.

So controversy, a word that had never appeared in their lives before, now increased.

The silent boy and the worried girl were silent as the room suddenly became very quiet.

In this silence, Futian Kang's phone rang a little abruptly.

Hearing the phone, Fukuda Kang seemed to have just woken up from a dream.

He lowered his head and turned the phone out of his pocket, and after answering it, he said in surprise: "It's Shibasaki, yes, I'm Yasu Fukuda." What do you say? I passed the guò primary, didn't I? It's really great, what? Do you have to go to the second round on the 15th? No problem, I will definitely arrive on time. Yes, sorry for your bother, thank you. ”

After hanging up the phone, Yasu Fukuda almost jumped up and said to his girlfriend: "Nanako, Kyoto TV called and said that I had passed the guò primary, which is really good, I'm so happy." ”

Nanako Yoshino's eyes widened when she heard this, and asked, "Akang, are you going to participate in those TV stations' singing talent shows again?" ”

Fukuda Kang heard the words and said: "Yes, I am very well prepared this time, and the table on the stage is also very good. ”

Nanako Yoshino sighed when she heard this and said: "Since the day you turned eighteen, you have signed up for not ten times but eight times, which one did not pass the preliminary round, which time was finally selected, do you think it is interesting that you can't get up or down?" ”

Hearing this, Yasu Fukuda hurriedly explained: "Nanako, this time is different, I couldn't go to the big stage before, not because I didn't sing well, but because the judges thought that my image was not outstanding and there was nothing worth packaging." But this time it was different, the organizers specially invited Mr. Sato Takeuchi to come over as a judge this time, and the teacher said on the first day he sat on the judges' bench that he only listened to the sound and didn't look at anything else, so my opportunity came. ”

Nanako Yoshino heard that she looked at her boyfriend's high-spirited appearance, and she really couldn't bear to hit him.

As if deflated, he lowered his shoulders and lowered his head, walked past his boyfriend, opened the wooden door of the rental house and said, "Since you think so, then I can't stop it, but I think we all need to calm down." I won't be coming here recently, so don't go to me, you can call if you have something, and we'll get in touch when we've all calmed down and thought about it. ”

It seems that he didn't expect his girlfriend to say this, where did Yasusu Fukuda stand like a fool, and watched Nanako Yoshino leave in a daze.

After the girl left, the room was quiet again, and Fukuda Kang was stunned for a while, and then seemed to finally react.

He scratched his head a few times with his hand, then crouched on the ground without saying a word, his frustration evident from his body movements.

George, the wren who was on the bird shelf on the side, had been wandering from side to side on the bird shelf since the master and Nanako began to quarrel.

When Nanako left, George couldn't help but fly over and rub his head against his cheek when he saw his master's depressed look.

Feeling that something was rubbing against him, Fukuda Kang raised his head, and after finding that it was Brother Wren who he had raised, he stroked Brother Wren's head with his hand and said, "George, I really like to sing." In order to be able to step on a bigger stage, I practice singing every day, and in order to protect my voice, I only eat boiled vegetables and a little salt in addition to socializing. I wanted to shine on the stage so that everyone could see me, but why didn't I always succeed? Did I really take this wrong step, and does my current persistence still make sense? ”

In a rental house on a winter afternoon, a 20-year-old boy faces an unknown future, both frightened and confused.

The Fujimoto family's pet hospital has a familiar new guest today, their upstairs neighbor, Mr. Yasushi Fukuda, who temporarily fosters his pet brother George.

Since the quarrel with his girlfriend, the two have not seen each other for a few days.

Although they still contacted each other by phone, Nanako was still urging Fukuda Yasushi to repeat his studies or learn a craft that could make a living.

Yasu Fukuda, who still has a dream of stage, doesn't want to do what his girlfriend said, so the relationship between the two sides is frozen here.

Because he had to deal with the re-selection of the singing competition for a few days, he had been staying overnight with a friend in Kyoto recently.

This is done to nourish the essence of the old age, and the other is to facilitate the practice of singing.

Futian Kang goes out, and pets are naturally not allowed to be taken out.

So George was sent here by his owner for a week.

The happiest person about this is actually the guy Black Feather, who now flies with the Wren every day, and can often hear the birdsong and duet of the two of them in the hospital.

Xu Jie can now be on time for the air bed, because after his nap time, the birds will start chirping.

Although the wren's chirping is very pleasant, and the voice of the black feather is hoarse but not unpleasant, it is impossible to continue to laze in bed in this situation.

Dr. Fujimoto welcomed this situation very much, because Xu Jie's daily examination a few days ago found that although his weight was still within the normal range, it had a tendency to exceed the standard.

Recently, Xu Jie's activity has decreased significantly in the cold weather, and he eats more than usual in order to keep out the cold.

Looking at the increasingly rounded cat face of his tanuki cat, Dr. Fujimoto said to it, "Great Sage, you should control your diet and then strengthen your exercise." ”

Hearing this, Xu Jie turned sideways and twisted his head to lick his back hair, looking like he couldn't understand what you said.

Looking at the tanuki cat who was brushing the scoundrel with him, Dr. Fujimoto pushed the eyes on the bridge of his nose, then turned his head to the big black cat waiting outside the clinic and said, "Daikoku, the weight of the tanuki is going to be too much if it grows like this." If a cat is obese, it is very detrimental to their health. So during this time, I will give some foods with less fat content for Dasheng to eat, and you should also pay attention to not bringing pork sausages or anything back for him to eat, you can bring more fish and shrimp, these things are also less nutritious and fat. There is also its strengthening exercise, so if you continue like this, you will not only be obese, but your physique will also decline. This is very bad for it in the future, you must know that life lies in exercise, if the cat wants to live a long life, it is necessary to ensure a certain amount of exercise every day. ”

Mo listened very attentively, and he took every word the doctor said to heart.

Xu Jie was dumbfounded, it couldn't believe it, was the doctor making a 'small report' with Mo?

Of course, Dr. Fujimoto is not making a small report, he is just explaining the doctor's instructions to the patient's family.

It doesn't matter if the tanuki cat pretends to be stupid or not, anyway, it has a family, and as a guardian cat, Dahei will always have a way to make the tanuki move.
