Tsukasa Higashino thinks he is famous, and of course he has long thought about the situation where his address may be exposed.

After all, the area of Adachi where he lives is too shabby... But it's certainly not as safe as in other parts of Tokyo.

Therefore, it is normal for someone to see their figure here, and it is quite normal to be curious to follow them.

And there are files on the school side, and many teachers know their addresses.

It's better to talk about... Higashino himself was still a little surprised, and his address had not been revealed until now.

And—

Higashino glanced at the photo content of the post.

The photo is indeed your own home, and the style of the security door is not wrong.

Merely... There are too few people who believe in the poster.

The entire floor is a handful.

Yes, no one wants to believe it.

The cumulative sales of Higashino Tsushimitsu "Midnight Bells" have already exceeded 1.5 million copies, and the revenue is 60 million yen (tax included) based on the calculation of 40 yen for a single book.

Not to mention the cooperation with Kumamon.

He is so rich, how can he still live in such a dirty and messy place?

There's no reason for that.

Many people also cited the income that Higashino could at least earn this year.

But even under this offensive, the owner of the post still didn't give up, and a photo of Higashino Tsukasa going out for a walk was released in the back.

This time there was a lot less opposition all of a sudden.

Many people confirmed the photo again and again, and after discovering that it was indeed Tsukasa Higashino, they began to excitedly ask the other party about the location of Tsukasa Higashino.

This kind of fan behavior... To be honest, Tsukasa Higashino doesn't actually hate it.

After all, the other party likes his work and wants to come to the door.

In his previous life, Tsukasa Higashino didn't have this treatment, at most, there were quite a few apprentices who followed him to learn to paint, and they came over every day.

It's just that coming to the door like this really bothered him a lot.

After all, he doesn't live alone, but with Higashino Chihaya.

He doesn't care if he comes to the door like this, the key is Higashino Chihaya.

"I've got to change my home." Seeing that this post quickly became popular, Higashino stopped holding the palm of the mouse and pondered.

He had actually considered moving before.

It's just that due to Higashino Chihaya's illness, it hasn't been implemented.

But it's different.

Today is the end of November, and Chino Higashino has checked her physical condition again in the middle of the month.

The result is that the condition is stable, and even if there is any change, there should be no problem.

And Tsukasa Higashino also asked Higashino Chihaya for his opinion before.

Higashino Chihaya's answer is also very pertinent, everything is up to him, no matter where she goes, she accompanies Higashino Division.

So... He had already planned to change places to live, but this time he just brought the plan forward.

He didn't hesitate, he simply called Higashino Chihaya over and told the other party what happened.

Chihaya Higashino touched his head as he listened, and then summed it up and said, "That is... There's a bad guy coming to the door. And then Ace wants to move, right? ”

"Uh... It's not necessarily true to say that it's a bad person..."Tsukasa Higashino shook his head with a smile, but he didn't explain too much.

After all, Chihaya Higashino doesn't necessarily understand it.

"Oh... Oh... I know. Then let's move. As. ”

Although Higashino Chihaya didn't understand, she also knew that Higashino Tsukasa was for her own good, so she didn't hesitate at all when she nodded.

Very good.

After getting Chihaya Higashino's consent, Tsukasa Higashino did not hesitate.

By the next day, he quickly found a trusted real estate agent through Urashima Press.

Originally, he was looking for a house in Meguro Ward near Kita-Yoshijuku, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and there was no such good thing at all, and Higashino Tsukasa ran for two or three days in a row and did not find a good place to live.

But the situation is not bad, because Tsukasa Higashino thought of one thing-

"I—Is there any extra house near my house? Is it? ”

Ryoka Konoe looked at Tsukasa Higashino in front of her, and her face turned red.

How did Tsukasa Higashino suddenly ask himself this question...

Do you want to live together?

It's too early! The relationship is also progressing too fast!

She was very thin-skinned and couldn't ask at once, but Yumi Takahashi was different, she finished chewing the bread and swallowed it, and asked her own question very dryly: "Does Higashino-sensei want to live with Lianghua?" ”

To her question, Higashino Tsukasa also replied happily with a half-smile: "Yes, I have this idea." ”

Ay? Do you really want to live together?

Ryoka Konoe, who heard Tsukasa Higashino's answer, was stunned, put her hands on her chest, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Between men and women, when it comes to cohabitation, then that aspect must be mentioned, right?

Of course, Ryoka Konoe will panic.

"I really want to live together." Tsukasa Higashino nodded with a smile and replied very confidently, "Isn't it normal for me to live with my girlfriend?" ”

"But... But..."Konoe Ryoka was incoherent.

"Lianghua doesn't like it?" Tsukasa Higashino turned to her and asked.

"It's not that I don't like it... Belch... If you have to say... Yes, I like it. ”

In the face of Higashino's question, Ryoka Konoe is always prone to enter a state of 'air conditioning heat', and after she finished speaking, she was stunned for a while before realizing that she had said the wrong thing.

So she could only open her mouth, lowered her head all of a sudden, looked at her toes, and blushed so much that she simply shut up and stopped talking.

But soon, Aoi Fujiwara, who saw the most clearly on the other side, finally spoke: "Higashino-san, don't make jokes about Lianghua, isn't there still Sister Chihaya?" ”

yes, there's also Chizao Higashino.

How is it possible for Tsukasa Higashino to live with Ryoka Konoe?

Fujiwara Aoi estimated that Tsukasa Higashino was bullying Ryoka Konoe again.

But...

Aoi Fujiwara glanced at Ryoka Konoe...

Konoe Lianghua was really bullied by him, and he was so obedient that he didn't even return his mouth.

"I did plan to move recently." Higashino Tsukasa didn't continue to tease Ryoka Konoe, but explained the reason for moving to some extent.

After learning that Tsukasa Higashino's address was exposed and he needed to move, the three little girls in front of him also put away their jokes.

Instead, they got together and analyzed for Tsukasa Higashino very seriously: "If the address is exposed... You can indeed move to the vicinity of Lianghua. She has good security there, and the security guards downstairs are particularly responsible, but the rent is also very expensive. ”

This was said by Aoi Fujiwara, and she was the only one of the three girls who would seriously consider the issue of rent.

As for Konoe Ryoka... Because of her birth and family background, she didn't know the value of the 10,000 yen bill, and no matter how expensive the rent was, it was 'Huh? Is that so? I didn't pay much attention'.

It's perfectly fine to say that a rich woman is completely fine.

On the other side, Yumi Takahashi is even more unreliable, and he is not very popular except for sports.

So at this time, only Aoi Fujiwara can stand up.

"There is nothing wrong with the rent, but the most important thing is that there are any extra rooms nearby?"

"Well, there's a lot of room on the same floor as me... Rent..."

Konoe Ryoka nodded, and after a while, he looked at Higashino Tsukasa pitifully: "If Ace thinks there is a problem with the rent... It doesn't matter if I'll pay. ”

She really wanted Tsukasa Higashino to move near her house, and thought that even if she came to pay the rent, it would be fine.

Looking at Konoe Lianghua's appearance, Higashino Tsukasa was also speechless for a while.

Fortunately, Konoe Lianghua didn't find another little white face as a boyfriend, otherwise this stupid and sweet character would be deceived sooner or later.

There is an industry in Japan called the Cowherd Shop, where the men are still relatively powerful, and the means of cheating money can be said to be endless.

But Higashino Tsukasa is not a cowherd, and he doesn't like to eat soft rice, so he simply refused: "I can pay for it myself... Since there is a place to live over there in Lianghua, then I'll go over tomorrow to see the situation. ”

He is a very efficient person, and he is used to doing things immediately when he makes a decision, and he definitely doesn't want to procrastinate.

In the afternoon, Tsukasa Higashino was counting the moving luggage at home, and then he was attracted by a rush of doorbells.

I don't know who it is, ringing the doorbell.

Tsukasa Higashino opened the door with a strange look and looked over-

Ooh... Aren't they all acquaintances?

The manager of the convenience store, the owner of the butcher shop, the mother-in-law of Chiyo, and the owner of the fish shop, Hirakasaka, who opened the fish shop, are the owners who sell Mariana Trench sea bass to Tsukasa Higashino.

These people actually have a good relationship with Tsukasa Higashino... They often see Tsukasa Higashino on the TV, so they take Tsukasa Higashino as an example at every turn, so that their granddaughters or sons must be on par with Tsukasa Higashino.

But why did so many people suddenly come to their homes?

Higashino Tsukasa felt very strange in his heart, and before he could ask a question, he was asked in advance by the manager of Ino.

"Higashino-san, I heard that Administrator Kondo said you're planning to move recently?"

Oh.. I see.

Tsukasa Higashino suddenly realized.

Kondo is the manager of this apartment, and Tsukasa Higashino has greeted him before, saying that he is preparing to move.

"Hmm... Yes, there is this reservation. "These people are also good friends, Higashino Tsukasa replied bluntly without hesitation.

"How so...? Is there a new house? They looked at each other and asked.

"I already have an idea, and I'll go over tomorrow to see the new house."

"That's right..."

They nodded, then looked left and right again, and then the representative of the residents' committee, Mikio Sagara, took the initiative to deliver a package.

"This is a little bit of our heart, and we old guys have always been taken care of by Higashino-san."

Sagara is a very amiable old man, and he handed the generous souvenir to Tsukasa Higashino, and a few neighbors who had a particularly good relationship with Tsukasa Higashino shed a few tears.

Feeling their sincere friendship, Higashino hesitated for a while, but also accepted this souvenir.

This is also a well-known town culture in Japan, which is xenophobic, but it attaches great importance to the inside.

In addition, this area belongs to the middle-aged and elderly community, and promising young people are going to Minato-ku, Chiyoda, and Bunkyo Ward, and few people are willing to live in Adachi Ward.

Some people in Japan are very disregarding blood ties.

Some office workers would rather spend the New Year in a rented house than go back to their hometown to see their parents.

And young people like Tsukasa Higashino, who have a future and keep running to their homes, come over from time to time to offer a few words of condolences and send souvenirs... That's just too little.

Old people are always like this, remembering, especially the people who are on the way to the end of their lives, they will remember it clearly.

And Higashino Tsukasa moved away, and I don't know when they came back to see it.

By that time, how many of them would be left?

This walk, you may not be able to see it after that.

At least Chiyo's mother-in-law, who has the title of the former flower of Shimojo Town, saw that Higashino Tsukasa was about to leave, and her tears flowed down, and Higashino Tsukasa gave her several hugs and couldn't stop crying.

Looking at these simple old men, Higashino Tsukasa also sighed and shook his head, and he was also a little moved in his heart.

The movement outside the door naturally alarmed Higashino Chihaya.

She soon appeared at the door, and was hugged by Chiyo's mother-in-law.

"Chihaya... Don't forget your mother-in-law when you move outside. ”

"Hmm... Oh... Oh..."Higashino Chihaya didn't understand what was going on, but looking at the tears that kept oozing from the eyes of Chiyo's mother-in-law, she was also very distressed and stretched out her hand to wipe her face: "Chiyo mother-in-law, don't cry... Did Ace bully you? Tell me about it, and I'll teach him a good lesson. ”

Listening to Chihaya Higashino's words, Chiyo's mother-in-law could only cry.

She didn't want the Higashino siblings to leave this Shimojo Town.

But the network address exposes this kind of thing, and they can't do anything about it.

Most of the people who cry are elderly women, and middle-aged and elderly men are not as delicate as them.

Men, it's probably just a matter of silence for a while, and then make a harmless joke to liven up the atmosphere.

And they are the same: "Speaking of which, when my granddaughter grows up, she will still say that she wants to be your girlfriend Higashino-san, but now it seems that there is no chance." ”

"What's the matter?" Higashino replied with a smile: "I don't plan to sell this old home, maybe I will live back in the future, I hope you can take care of your health, I will come to the door to disturb me when the time comes." ”

Yes, he has no plans to sell his old home, and he may come back in the future.

When the time comes, come back with these good neighbors of the residents' committee... Have a good chat, talk well.

Of course, the fact that their granddaughter is a girlfriend is still forgotten.

Several of their granddaughters are only a few years old, and Higashino doesn't want to break the law.

And just like that, the day passed unpretentiously.

The next day, Tsukasa Higashino, led by a housing agent, came to the area where Ryoka Konoe lived.

The environment here is really good, and the security is very good, and the security guards below are patrolling all the time.

Higashino made a decision quickly, and in the afternoon he called someone from the moving company to come and help.

At sunset, Tsukasa Higashino watched the moving company move the furniture out of his old home one by one, took Chihaya Higashino's palm, and planned to get in the car, leave here, and go to his newly rented home.

Then, Tsukasa Higashino noticed that Chihaya Higashino's gaze stopped.

She seems... I don't know where I'm looking.

Tsukasa Higashino followed her gaze.

It turned out that at some point, on the other side of the street, there were already seven or eight middle-aged and elderly people standing.

They just stood where they were, and then they raised their hands.

Slowly waved at Tsukasa Higashino.

Chihaya Higashino, who had just gotten into the car, immediately got out of the car.

She jumped and jumped in place, waving her hand vigorously.

Hair flicked and flicked.

In the sunset and the sound of the wind, Higashino only heard her shouting over there-

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"
