Tokyo: Simulation starts from the big sister next door

"That guy is really different from many murderers I have reported. He is too smart and has fooled us and the police for so many years."

The old man sighed.

There was deep resentment in his tone.

Tamamo Yuki bit her lip, her eyes full of unyielding spirit.

She must find the murderer and clear her parents' grievances.

Everyone chatted and helped sweep the graves, and then the old man left. Before leaving, she was still talking to poor little Tamamo Yuki. "If you need any help, be sure to tell grandpa."

He is really a kind old man.

After watching his grandfather leave, Yuki Tamamo looked at An Zeliang and the other two and sincerely thanked them, "I really appreciate everyone's help today."

"Well, if you don't mind, could you please come to my house for a meal? I want to thank everyone for their help today."

Chapter 61: 60: Wife: She is my type

Everyone got in a car, drove on the road, and headed to Tamamo's house.

None of them had ever been to Tamamo's house, and this was their first visit.

So having dinner at Tamamo-san's house is also part of today's club activities.

After driving for an unknown amount of time, we arrived at a relatively remote area, at the doorstep of Tamamo-san's home.

This place is obviously a suburb, and the houses nearby are all neatly arranged in rows of small single-family houses, which appear to be only about 34 square meters in size.

The same goes for Tamamo's family.

Everyone took off their shoes at the entrance and entered the room. The space inside was relatively small and the furnishings were simple, but it had a warm and homey feeling.

"President, Nakano-san, please sit down for a moment. I'll change into my school uniform and then go buy groceries." Tamamo Yuki said and walked into the bedroom.

"So small."

An Zeliang looked up and looked around the small living room.

Tamamo-san’s house is so small, not even as big as the living room in his house.

However, because of the clever space design and the upper and lower floors, it can perfectly accommodate 5 or 6 people from three generations.

Such single-family houses are also the residences of many ordinary poor people in Japan.

However, although Tamamo-san's room was small, it was very clean. The books on the table were neatly arranged, the floor was swept clean, and there was no dirt on the walls.

An Zeliang's eyes turned and suddenly stopped at a photo hanging on the wall. It was a photo of a young couple with happy smiles on their faces and their daughter and her family of three.

"Tamamo-san looked so sunny when she was little." An Zeliang looked at the little girl in the photo. She had an innocent smile on her face, which was pure, happy and contagious.

It's a smile that only comes from a carefree age.

From this point of view, the young couple in the photo is most likely Tamamo's parents.

"Well, Tamamo-san has changed a lot." Nakano Aoi made this comment while looking at Tamamo Yuki in the photo.

It was also the first time she saw a photo of Tamamo Yuki as a child.

The little girl in the photo is sunny and cheerful, with an infectious smile that makes people like her. But now Tamamo-san is lifeless, gloomy, speaks little, and rarely smiles, and even when she smiles, it is insincere.

It's hard to imagine it's the same girl as in the photo.

but.

Thinking about what Tamamo-san has gone through, most people wouldn't have it any better than Tamamo-san.

"Tamamo-san's home is actually in Kanagawa? No wonder it felt like the car ride took a long time." An Zeliang was a little surprised when he looked at the map information on his mobile phone.

"How do you usually go to school when you live so far away?"

"As for classmate No. 2, he often rides a bicycle to school." Xingmiya Rin replied.

"bike?"

An Zeliang was a little speechless.

From here to school, according to the map, it takes more than 40 minutes by car. If you ride a bicycle, it will take at least an hour, right?

"Well, because classmate No. 2 said that riding a bicycle can save a lot of money." Xinggong Lin said calmly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

I knew Tamamo-san was a hard worker, but I didn’t expect her to be this hardworking.

It’s such a long way to go to school every day.

And during this period I also have to work part-time.

That means she would get home very late every day, and she would have to get up one or two hours earlier to go to school the next day, otherwise she would be late.

No wonder Tamamo-san always looks sleepy... There's a reason why the painting style is so gloomy.

There was a look of sympathy in Nakano Aoi's eyes. Just as she was about to say something, the bedroom door opened and Tamamo-san, who had just changed her clothes, came out.

A very simple piece of clothing.

Seeing this, the three of them stopped talking about the previous topic to avoid hurting Tamamo's self-esteem.

"Well, everyone, sit down for a while. I'll go buy some vegetables and start cooking when I come back." said Tamamo Yuki.

"Tamamo-san, let's go together. I'm strong and can help you carry the vegetables or something." An Zeliang stood up and said.

"This...is not good."

Yuki Tamamo felt a little embarrassed, after all, the other party was a guest. It was unreasonable to ask a guest for help.

"If Tamamo-san really considers me a friend, then you don't have to be polite. There's no such thing as being so distant between friends." An Zeliang smiled.

Hearing this, Tamamo Yuki nodded with emotion.

The word "friend" is very destructive to her.

Then, they put on their shoes and went out together.

Originally, Nakano Aoi volunteered to help, but because it was not good to leave the president alone at home, she had to stay.

the other side.

Led by Tamamo Yuki, the two walked for a few minutes and came to a vegetable shop.

As soon as Tamamo Yuki walked into the vegetable shop, she was noticed by the aunt selling vegetables.

"Xiao Xing, are you getting out of school so early today? It just so happens that there are not many people buying vegetables today, and the vegetables haven't been sold yet. Auntie will give you these vegetables at a discount, half the price, you can take them back and eat them."

As the auntie spoke with a smile, she subconsciously picked up the vegetables that didn't look very good and put them into the bag.

Yumao Xing was a little embarrassed and quickly refused: "Auntie, I'm inviting my friends to dinner today and I need to buy some fresh and good-looking vegetables. Could you please help me pick some?"

"And meat. We need to buy some beef too."

"Want to treat your friends to a meal? Okay, Auntie will help you pick something good."

The aunt looked at An Zeliang, somewhat thoughtfully, then selected some dishes that looked good, and took out two portions of frozen meat.

Then he put the dish on the scale and weighed it, saying, "The total is two thousand six hundred and fifty. I'll give you two thousand six hundred, Xiao Xing."

"Only two thousand six?"

An Zeliang calculated silently in his mind... According to normal prices, one serving of beef would cost 1,900 yen, two servings would cost at least 4,000 yen, and with vegetables, it would be much more than 4,000 yen. But the aunt only calculated 2,600 yen. This was a reduction of nearly half the price without Tamamo's knowledge.

Thinking of this, An Zeliang took out a few large Japanese yen from his pocket and said, "Auntie, let me pay."

"No, no! An Ze! We agreed that I would treat you to a meal today. How can I let you pay?"

Tamamo Yuki refused seriously, then took out her wallet and looked for money in it.

An Zeliang glanced at the girl's wallet, which was a patched and worn cloth wallet, and the money inside didn't look like much. Half of the money would be spent just on buying these vegetables.

"Auntie, here's the money. Thank you, Auntie!" Tamamo Yuki handed the money to the auntie and said thank you politely.

The aunt took the money with a smile and asked, "Xiao Xing, do you have many friends today? Do you want to buy so many vegetables?"

"Yeah, there are three friends." Tamamo Yuki smiled happily and didn't feel bad because she spent half of the money in her wallet.

"Auntie, I'm going back first."

"Xiao Xing, be careful on the road."

After saying hello, the two left the vegetable shop.

On the way home, An Zeliang was a little curious about what the aunt meant by discounted dishes.

"Tamamo-san, what was the discounted dish that Auntie packed for you earlier?"

Hearing this, Yuki Tamamo felt a little embarrassed and whispered, "Those are the dishes that don't look as good."

"Generally, the dishes left over by customers are discounted when the stall closes. But the aunties here are very nice. They saw me always coming to buy vegetables very late, so they would sell me the defective dishes in advance so that I could cook and eat earlier, instead of waiting hungry until the stall closes and the discounts are on."

"So that's it..."

An Zeliang has a high EQ and understands that Tamamo-san doesn’t want to eat good-looking food, but is just trying to save money.

He nodded in agreement, "Yeah, I often buy this kind of vegetables, they are actually the same, just look a little different, they taste the same, and can save a lot of living expenses."

"Yes yes yes!"

Tamamo Yuki was very happy to be recognized and nodded happily immediately.

She even counted on her fingers and told An Zeliang, "If I only buy discounted vegetables every month, I can save tens to hundreds of dollars each time. If I live like this for a month, I can save more than a thousand yen."

Only saving 1,000 yen a month?

In other words, her monthly living expenses are only around 2,000 to 3,000 yen?

An Zeliang felt a little sad.

It's really not easy for Tamamo-san.

Her frugality does not mean she is stingy. In fact, she is very frugal with herself, but she is not stingy at all when it comes to treating friends to dinner.

"That vegetable seller is also a good person."

An Zeliang sighed in his heart.

The other party has helped Tamamo-san many times without realizing it.

……

The vegetable shop was not far from Tamamo's house, and the two returned home quickly.

"Student Anze, please sit down for a moment. I'll go wash the vegetables and cook." Tamamo Yuki greeted with a smile and went into the kitchen carrying the vegetables.

Because of chatting and communicating along the way, the relationship between the two people is not so unfamiliar.

Watching Yuki Tamamo enter the kitchen, An Zeliang said slowly in a low voice: "Tamamo-san bought groceries today and spent half of the money in her wallet... I roughly calculated that it is equivalent to her living expenses for a month."

"I suddenly feel like, shouldn't we be guests here?"

Although Tamamo's monthly living expenses were not as much as his two-day pocket money, Tamamo still took it out without hesitation when buying vegetables and meat.

Moreover, he did not show any expression of pain when he paid the money. He looked very happy, even when he went home and greeted everyone, he always had a smile on his face.

It seems that she is very happy to have friends come to visit her, and she doesn't care how much she has paid.

"One month's living expenses..." After hearing this, Aoi Nakano fell silent.

Xinggong Lin didn't say anything either.

All three of them felt that the meal was a bit too expensive.

It has nothing to do with money, it's just valuable.

"We can also treat Tamamo-san in return. Each of us can treat her a few more times, so that Tamamo-san can get through the time when she doesn't have living expenses." An Zeliang said.

"Given Tamamo-san's personality, it's fine if you ask her to return the favor once, but if you ask her more than twice, she'll definitely find out and refuse."

Nakano Aoi knows Tamamo-san very well, and she is very sensitive. Even when she used to bring her lunch boxes, she would still pay for it or do the work.

For example, Tamamo would take the initiative to help her run errands, do homework, or let her do whatever she wanted, and she would never eat her lunch box for free. If Nakano Aoi didn't let her work, she wouldn't eat her lunch box.

"Well, I'll go help Tamamo-san cook first." Nakano Aoi was silent for a while, then stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

"Don't look at me. I don't know how to cook. If I go, I will only make things worse and affect the progress of cooking."

Xing Gonglin noticed An Zeliang's gaze and explained calmly.
