Chapter 5, 300,000 yen per month
When the sky is dark, it is dark, and when it is dark, Mito says goodbye to her colleagues and gets on the train and rushes towards Higashi-Shinjuku Station.
Half past six is the typical rush hour, and the cars are packed with men and women in suits and leather shoes, and the smell of sweat and perfume is mixed everywhere. Although all the passengers remained silent throughout the whole process, it was just a matter of habitual squeezing and enduring, just as the air conditioning in the carriage hung down from the top of their heads, which cooled and increased the risk of cold.
Midong clutched the handrail, her face tired, sweat running down her sideburns, as she constantly struggled with the vector force of the tram and had to beware of accidental groping hands. The disadvantage of jeans is here, if the hip shape is too highlighted, it will be easy to attract bees and butterflies.
There was still some time to reach her destination, and as a daze, she looked out the window. The lights in the carriage were bright, reflecting her appearance.
Meidong is only twenty years old this year, but she has been crawling in society for many years, and she is already old-fashioned and quite a mature woman.
Just like at this time, she was plainly wearing a pair of jeans and a black and red striped shirt, and combed the simplest ponytail, with that exquisite face, hanging a white plastic light film satchel, like the image of a literary young woman.
Instead of a farmhouse farmer girl who is dirty to the slag.
The tram arrived at the new station, and another group of passengers boarded the train, and the carriage suddenly became more crowded. Midong lamented and leaned her whole body against the pillar, and the middle-aged man behind her was pushed towards her, and the force was so great that her shirt was dented.
The electroplated handrail was actually caught by her ravine!
"Damn it!"
Midong had the heart to scold, but she knew that as long as she spoke, she had to spray a breath on the neck of the person in front of her. But she's not the only one moaning, there are hundreds of thousands of people rushing to Shinjuku during rush hour!
At this moment, Midong heard her phone ring again. She sighed again, sweating hard and squirming her right arm so hard that she could easily pull her phone out of her bag. It's also thanks to the caller's perseverance, for a full twenty-five seconds, he didn't hang up in advance.
"I guess I'm here to urge it...... Sure enough......"
On the bright screen of the mobile phone, the name of a person that Mi Dong least wants to see is displayed.
But tonight, it's time to see him.
Midong let out a long sigh, laboriously brought the microphone to her ear, and connected the phone.
"Hey ......"
"Ah, Aoyama-san, I can be regarded as contacting you."
On the other side of the phone was a middle-aged man, he sighed: "Today is the deadline, we should get off work in one hour, if you can't arrive in time, you will have to pay an extra interest next month......
"You have to waste such a thing at the end of every month......"
People are crowded, Midong uncomfortably sticks her face to the back of an office worker, the smell of men's sweat is everywhere, and it is good that she can be in the mood to talk now.
"Because every time, you are stuck with us before we get off work."
The man smiled bitterly: "Then Qingshan-san, before eight o'clock tonight, we will wait for your visit......
"Hey, Kumamoto, I'll tell you something."
Just as the other party was about to break off, Meidong suddenly said: "It's normal to urge me to repay the loan, but if you want to play tricks, it seems a little redundant." Why are you all of a sudden playing the trick of harassing phone calls? ”
"Spam calls?" The man Kumamoto was obviously stunned for a moment: "When did we hit you with that kind of thing?" ”
"Didn't you? About an hour ago, I received a call from an unfamiliar number, and the other party answered without saying a word. Kumamoto, I've never encountered this kind of trick in all these years, and after thinking about it for a long time, it seems that you are the most likely......"
"You're making a big joke!"
The anger of the man Kumamoto rushed towards Midong through the phone: "Harassing phone calls like that are already gangster-style behavior, where will we do it!" ”
It doesn't seem to be.
After a few more words, Midong hung up the phone, didn't take the phone back, and waited for the train to arrive.
It was only on the way to the last few stops that she no longer focused on complaining about the crowding, but just swayed her body as if she was tired, staring at the ground with her eyes fixed on the ground, bowing her head in contemplation.
"Higashi-Shinjuku, Higashi-Shinjuku has arrived."
After a few moments, the train prompted, "Please be ready for those who get off the train, Higashi-Shinjuku Station has arrived." ”
Shinjuku Station, one of the largest stations in Tokyo, is a behemoth that is directly underground and is connected to more than a dozen subway lines. In such a place, the flow of people that can be ushered in during the rush hour after work can be imagined, Rao is Meidong has long been used to it, and every time she encounters it, she has to be speechless.
"It's just seven o'clock, and it's just a bit of a head before those bastards get off work, so it's still too late to hurry up......"
Midong walked along the road with ease, and soon walked onto the ground.
At night, the cool breeze blows, the air is fresher, the neon lights shine all around, and the bustling area in front of Shinjuku Station is in full view.
However, Midong didn't have time to appreciate these at this time, and after leaving the station, she hurried to the right. She walked quickly, her denim shirt fluttered in the hunting wind, her slender ponytail lifted the ends of her sideburns, and in a few moments, she was hundreds of meters away.
With a slight turn, Midong turned into a laneway.
It is abruptly deserted, where the backs of two important high-rise buildings meet, and the ground is very cold and damp.
An ATM stands in the corner, which is Meidong's goal at the moment.
She didn't say a word of nonsense the whole time, stared at her watch, saw that there was still some time to spare, quickly inserted the card into the machine, and entered the password lightly and skillfully. Then, on the curve option that popped up, she directly pressed the largest number.
"Whew...... Now I can finally ......."
Listening to the rattling sound of work in the ATM, Midong stared at the unchanged screen, and her expression returned to the same flatness. It's just that when the cash pops out of the machine and she picks up the receipt, the slender willow eyebrows have to frown.
"305,720 yen, all of a sudden, became 5720 yen, desperately, depleting dignity, and earning a huge amount of money, just enough to repay the loan. Without my eldest brother's salary, neither of us would have been able to survive until I ...... completely."
Midong only muttered for a moment, and then decisively stuffed the 30 Fukuzawa Yuji into her satchel.
Then, she looked cautiously at the sides of the road.
The length of this alley is not short, and when you come here every month to withdraw money, you will inevitably be a little apprehensive.
"Well, let's go, and then we'll have to work at night."
Carrying the white bag, she quickly walked towards the end of the road she came, the main road was about fifty meters ahead, and there were three forks along the way, as for the ......
"Buzz~!"
Suddenly, the bright high beams turned on, and a heavy motorcycle rushed out of the fork in the road ahead and rushed towards Midong!
