I Refuse To Become Scumbag In Tokyo
Ch - 170: Meet Again?

Shishio then received his reward, which was "Business Mastery", and the moment he received it, he could not help but stop his movement for a while, trying to continue with all the knowledge he received.

Shishio took a deep breath and had to admit that it was a good ability.

This ability allows him to successfully run businesses and companies and an intuitive understanding of banking, entrepreneurship, investing, and finance.

By using this ability, he can get rich very quickly and easily and perform such feats as always developing ideas to make a profit, making the right choice in advancing the business, predicting the source of the monetary crisis.

Shishio thought that this ability was quite good.

After all, although he was also an entrepreneur in his previous life, his business was only related to food, services, mining, publishing, garment, and property.

As for other businesses, he needed to learn. However, with this ability, it knows all the knowledge and optimizes the performance of various businesses, even the most unique ones.

Shishio thought about all the business and assets he had from the system and felt that he could develop it better.

In order to enter the stock market, the futures exchange, real estate, etc., he needs more data, but he can get it easily by using "Mastery Programming" because this ability gives him the ability to hack things.

However, in conclusion, he had become the God of Wealth just now.

Shishio thought for a moment and had to admit that managing the business was troublesome, so he thought he had to make cryptocurrency, so he didn't need to work.

Aside from joking around, he actually had an idea to create a cryptocurrency.

Shishio knew that in 2009, in his original world, a developer possibly named Satoshi Nakamoto created the first decentralized cryptocurrency, bitcoin.

In 2009, its value was not that big, and it was used as a game by many people, but by 2021, it had become the largest value cryptocurrency in the world.

With "Mastery of Programming", Shishio thought of creating this cryptocurrency himself because it was quite easy.

He thought for a while and made plans in his head for a while, making various notes inside his brain.

He did not think that he would forget about this matter because he had "Enhanced Memory."

It wasn't that he didn't want to write down his plans on his laptop, but he was afraid that there was a small chance that his plans were stolen or something like that, and the safest place to keep secrets was inside his head, after all.

Unless one could hypnotize him, which was extremely unlikely, given he had "Mastery of Hypnosis", then there was no way his plan would leak out.

Shishio wrote down his plan moments before he quit because he remembered that he had to write his novel as soon as possible.

He wanted to write his novel, but before that, he thought of summoning Futaba first so that she could adopt the Sorata cat, especially the Sorata's last cat.

Shishio had planned to make Sorata leave Sakurasou, so he needed someone to adopt Hikari (the Sorata cat).

He knew that Hikari had a lot of meaning to Sorata, and he also had a feeling that someone wanted to adopt Hikari before.

However, Sorata rejects this person or pretends there are no more cats, which is why Hikari is still in Sakurasou.

Hikari is the reason why Sorata moved to Sakurasou.

If not for this cat, he might not have known how insignificant he was in this world and might not have known the existence of a genius in this world, but this cat was also what made him meet Shiina.

Still, even though Shiina and Sorata met each other, their relationship wasn't even a friend, or rather they were just tenants from the same dorm, either, the ones who only spoke to each other with a few words, even so, this cat, had many meanings to Sorata.

unlike his other cars, he also treats this cat differently from other cats.

Shishio then picks up his phone and calls Futaba.

He pressed his number then waited for a while before connecting.

"Hello, is this Futaba-san?"

As usual, after school, Futaba returned to her home.

As usual, everything inside her house felt so dim, but she was used to it, so she never said anything.

"I'm back."

Futaba came back, but no one welcomed her back.

His house was so quiet, and only his voice could be heard echoing along the corridor, but such a situation was common to him, so he did not react much.

Taking off her shoes, she went to the living room, sat on the sofa for a while before pulling her phone out of her pocket.

He quickly looked at Shishio's number stored on his phone and could not help but blush.

Futaba never expected that the two would exchange contact with each other easily, and she had to admit that someone with very high interpersonal skills was completely different.

Here, she struggles to talk and mingle with everyone in her class, but Shishio can easily ask for her phone number, and she also happily gives her phone number.

'But cats, yes?'

Futaba thought of her reason for talking to him and knew that she might need to adopt a cat.

Looking at his quiet home, where only his voice could be heard, he felt that a cat might not be evil.

Someone might have noticed it by now, but Futaba received some kind of waiver from her parents because they were abroad because of work.

She also had a fairly lonely childhood, making her choose to be alone because it was her comfort zone.

His previous talks with Shishio may have been outside his comfort zone, but Futaba is not sure why.

It was just comfortable just standing by his side.

Futaba looked at her phone number again and wondered if she should call him first or send him an SMS.

Such thoughts kept spinning for a long time which made him hesitant because he was afraid of being considered a freak and forgot the fact that he lived in Sakurasou, known as the "Den of Weirdo."

However, no one can blame him.

After all, when Futaba saw Ritsu and Shiina, she felt Sakurasou was a place to gather models or such because the people living there were beautiful and handsome.

However, he might change his mind if he knew that Sorata was also living in that dormitory.

Futaba was still hesitant and did not realize that it had been several hours since she stared at her phone screen, but suddenly...

"!!!"

"Hello, is this Futaba-san?"

Futaba can solve a variety of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and various sciences related to science easily and explain it to the apes so that it can be understood.

Still, he had no knowledge of love, so he did not know what to do, nor did he have someone to talk to.

"Ah, um..."

That was the only word that came out from Futaba that made her feel regret at this moment.

"So, then I'm glad I didn't call the wrong person, and just to remind you, I'm Shishio Oga. We've talked near a bread food truck before."

"Um, Oga-kun, I remember." Futaba, of course, remembered it, or rather she dreamed of it, but there was no way for her to say all that, and at the same time, she wished she could express her feelings better.

He also wondered if her tone and words were too cold to make her think that she hated him.

'Ugh...!'

Futaba wondered why talking to someone was so difficult!

"I'm glad you remember me, so I want you do you still want to adopt a cat?" Shishio asked.

"Ms." Futaba nodded and said, "I want to adopt a cat."

"So, but have you ever taken care of a cat before?" Shishio asked.

"....." Futaba.

"From this silence, I know you have no experience yet" Shishio said in a flat tone.

Futaba blushed and felt embarrassed.

"I - I have experience!" He felt that he was being ridiculed, which made him unwilling to lose!

'But why do my words feel so strange?' Futaba felt confused all of a sudden.

"Um, Futaba-san, you don't have to force yourself. You should know that cats are different from school lessons. It's a living thing, and if you're not careful, then it might hurt, in worse cases, it might be dying" Shishio said, telling cruel facts because even though he wanted someone to adopt Hikari, he did not want someone irresponsible to do so.

Even though he knew that Futaba might not be such a person, he still wanted to be careful, right?

"....." Futaba wondered if her decision to adopt a cat was too deliberate, but when she thought about it calmly, it was true, because the reason why she wanted to adopt a cat was so that she could talk to Shishio. .

"How about this? Are you free this week?" Shishio suddenly asked.

"Huh?" Futaba.

"Do you want to visit Sakurasou so that you can see the cat itself? I can also teach you and tell you what you need to pay attention to in order to take care of the cat later there," Shishio said.

"....." Futaba never expected that their progress would be so quick, and she did not expect that Shishio would invite her to come to Sakurasou, but... "The - Then, what about this Friday?" He wanted to use his time to learn to take care of the cat first before he went to visit Sakurasou.

"Well, I'll see you Friday, Futaba-san."

"Ms." Futaba somehow also anticipates her visit to Sakurasou.

Then the two say goodbye and end the call.

Futaba somehow dropped her phone onto her soft and large pa*ud*ra and felt her body was quite dizzy for some reason.

He wanted to share this information with someone, but he was not sure who he could talk to.

"Ugh..."

Futaba's feelings were mixed up at this moment, she was happy and nervous at the same time, but one thing was certain, she needed to prepare herself so that she wouldn't mess it up!

Futaba then turned on the lights in her home, and it was probably her imagination.

Somehow his house is more vibrant than ever.

Shishio put down his phone and did not know what Futaba was thinking right now, but he did not think too much because there was something he needed to do now. He looked at his laptop and prepared to write.

Shishio has decided to write a novel to say goodbye to his past.

If possible, he wanted to write it as soon as possible, but he might make excuses like he didn't have time, or he might try to avoid it, but now, he couldn't.

He has expressed his feelings to Saki and knows that he cannot delay her any longer, but when his finger touches the keyboard on his laptop...

"..."

Shishio frowned and felt his head empty at this moment.

In the past, he has gained "Mastery of TK, SD, Junior High School, and High School knowledge", and of course, he also has literary knowledge.

It should be easy for him to write a novel.

Of course, he could also write everything from his previous world and make it better, but this time, his fingers could not move.

'Why is it so hard?'

Shishio closed his eyes and rubbed his temple.

He sat there for a few minutes, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind.

'All-around shop?'

Shishio thought of a girl he had taken advantage of on his first day arriving in Tokyo.

When he thought about what he had done to this girl, it made his chest hurt as he might try to forget about this girl, she said, but he knew that he could not escape his mistake and he had to fix it or if not, he would do it. Just walk in the spiral could not continue.

Shishio stood up from his seat and knew that he could not stay like this any longer.

So she picked up her hoodie and put it on before she came out of her room, hoping she could see it again there so she could confirm something from him.

A/N: So when I finish this, I have to go get rid of the trash. So I went to the toilet, locked the door, finished the business.... AND THE DOOR KEY IS BROKEN! So I got stuck in the toilet.... For about 5 minutes before I smartly dismantle the door handle (With outside help).
