I Refuse To Become Scumbag In Tokyo
Ch - 3: Bad Habist
After Shishio sat down and closed the door, Chihiro drove the car out of the station parking lot.
Looking at the tall buildings and the number of people outside, he felt relieved for some reason.
Unlike Kyoto, where most of the things there are mostly traditional, the scenery in Tokyo is very similar to the city where he lived in his previous life.
This city had somehow melted the strange feeling in his heart as it was still difficult to accept his identity as someone who had reincarnated.
Fortunately, Shishio Oga previously had "chuunibyou."
The word "chuunibyou" may still be foreign abroad.
However, it is quite common in this country.
In short, "chuunibyou" is a derogatory colloquial term in Japanese used to describe someone who exhibits delusional behavior, especially thinking that someone has special powers that no one else has.
Originally a term used for children in their second year of high school who acted like adults, the term eventually evolved into a term commonly used to describe delusional behavior in general.
It was also the reason why his parents did not feel strange when he wanted to move to Tokyo because his life in high school was so embarrassing that his parents often nagged, lectured, and reprimanded him, she said, so that when his personality became normal, his parents were so grateful that they took him to the temple in person, giving many offerings, showing how happy they were, however, the act frightened him because the priest in the temple came out, gave him silk or some kind of spell.
Still, he was happy that he was not an evil spirit, and he was fine.
Shishio knew that he had reincarnated, and he could not return, so all he could do was accept his new identity.
Thinking of his parents, Shishio is happy that his parents are kind.
He could accept them as his parents easily because the care they gave him over the past month made him moved, and since he had become Shishio Oga, then replaced Shishio Oga earlier, he was the one who had been the first to take over, he would make his parents in this place a happy world.
That's all he can do right now.
Being accepted in high school, studying hard, entering a good university, and working hard in his career were the only things he could do right now.
"Shishio, tomorrow, I will accompany you to school. You will be enrolled in a high school affiliated with Suimei University, known as Suimei University of the Arts. I also worked at that school as an art teacher in the art department.The opening ceremony will be held the day after tomorrow. Don't forget, okay?"
"Yes, Chihiro-nee." Shishio nodded and asked, "So, are we going to go to school now?" He knew that he should not have thought about the current system.
Still, she needs to process Shishio Oga's memories beforehand, especially about the lessons and knowledge in high school because the entrance exam will start tomorrow.
"No, where we're going now is where you're going to live in the future, which is the dormitory that's connected to the school and I'm also the manager of that place. As for the name of the dorm, you'll know later, and you'll have to hang out with the other tenants, okay? "
Chihiro glanced at Shishio and felt a little worried because she knew that she had no friends in this city.
He was afraid Shishio would be lonely and he really wondered why big brother
his women let Shishio come to tokyo alone.
"Yes, don't worry, Chihiro-nee."
Shishio understood his aunt's intentions.
Chihiro was worried about whether she could handle interpersonal relationships when she arrived at a new place, after all, this country was Japanese, and it was important to get along
each other is at school, but she wonders why the name of the school is so familiar, even though she has never been to Tokyo before.
"Oh, right, your mother told me that you have a very habitual
lousy."
This time, Chihiro looked at Shishio with a stern expression.
"Bad habits?"
Shishio scrunched his lips and knew what was meant by habit
that bad.
"Your mom has reminded me to watch you not gamble anymore, so you better not do that here, okay?"
Chihiro is a bit confused at first, wondering if she misheard him since her older sister said that Shishio had a habit of gambling.
"Yes, you don't have to worry about me, Chihiro-nee, I won't do anything like that anymore."
Shishio Oga's previous habit was gambling and it was also the source of the previous 15 million yen in his bank account.
Shishio Oga knows that it is not because Shishio Oga previously liked to gamble, but rather because it was part of the setting of Shishio Oga's character when he was still in chuunibyou.
He was a little confused, but, he had to admit that Shishio Oga was previously a great gambler because he could turn the savings of five hundred thousand yen and the new year money he had collected several years into several times.
Chihiro felt strange with Shishio's reply and asked, "what's wrong? have you lost a lot of money gambling before that you you're going to quit?" He did not expect his nephew to say that he would stop
gamble right away and wonder why he is not trying to negotiate or fight it because
he knows that his older sister has a problem with Shishio's gambling habits.
"..."
Shishio was speechless, wondering if his aunt wanted him to continue his bad habit, but he still answered her.
"I'm going to be a high school student, so I'm thinking of getting out of a bad habit
"Oh, not because you lost
money?" Chihiro tries to tease Shishio because in her mind, the bet between Junior High students is only 100 yen and at most 500 yen.
"No, I've won a lot."
shishio replied in a daze while looking at the sight of Tokyo out of curiosity.
"Oh? Already won? How many?"
Chihiro thought her nephew might win her around 10,000 yen or something.
"15 million yen."
"...."
Chihiro blinked her eyes and thought that she had heard something wrong.
"I'm sorry, Shishio, can you tell me again how much money you earned from gambling?"
"That's 15 million yen."
Shishio thought of no reason to hide his 15 million yen because
in his bank account there are another 500 million yen, though, though he says
that she was sure her aunt wouldn't believe her, she regretted answering Chihiro's questions, as she was afraid she might not be able to arrive at her new dorm.
"Chiro-nee! Chihiro-nee! Watch the road! We're gonna hit!"
Hearing Shishio's cry, Chihiro quickly stopped at the side and heaved a sigh of relief as she almost moved across the street.
He then looked at his nephew with red eyes and asked "are you serious ?!"
"...."
Shishio was speechless.
They would have hit another car before, but this woman asked him if the amount of money he won was real or not?
Shishio somehow understood why his aunt was not married at this time.
"Yes." Yeah."
"...."
The moment Chihiro heard those words, she felt that she was blown away.
His salary is around 30,000 yen a month, and he has been working for the past six to seven years which means he can earn around 3.6 million yen a year, the total amount of money
he collected over the past seven years was 25.2 million yen.
However, all that money needs to be deducted from his expenses for eating,
make-up, outing, gasoline, clothes,
insurance, taxes, etc.
Although Chihiro did not need to pay rent because she was the hostel manager, her living expenses were quite large and therefore, her savings were not much.
Chihiro felt somewhat embarrassed because her savings were only 1/3 of the wealth
clean nephew.
He then continued driving, then patted his nephew on the shoulder.
"Save your money, don't gamble anymore."
"Yes." Yeah."
According to Chihiro, gambling was risky and better kept because no one knew if his nephew would be lucky in the future.
Hearing Chihiro's words, Shishio's impression of her aunt was quite good, thinking that she cared about him.
Yet...
Chihiro then glanced at Shishio, who was looking at the window and could not hold her breath.
"If you're older then we can get married soon."
Unfortunately, Shishio had no idea what his aunt was thinking at the time.
