Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?
Chapter 7 The Landlady is Like a Snow Girl
Hearing that it was a woman coming outside, Namikaze Yukaku in the closet was a little dazed.
Could this senior named Oda Shingo be a magnet for women?
In such a short time since I was in the closet, two women have already come to see him.
She was surprised here, while Oda Shingo was quite embarrassed.
After Oda Shingo heard the landlady's voice, he subconsciously touched his phone.
He knew that his savings, after buying furniture and painting tools just now, only left more than 26,000 yen.
The original owner already owed three months' rent, totaling 75,000 yen.
Although the rent is super cheap, it is still not enough to make up for it. And the remaining money should be kept for living expenses.
Most rentals in Japan are guaranteed by agency companies, so landlords don’t need to worry about rent.
It is very rare for the landlady to directly rent a house or even come to collect payment in person.
It is for this reason that the original person has been in arrears with rent for so long and has not been blacklisted. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the original person to work part-time at Animation Co., Ltd.
But whether it was for daily needs or wanting to form a team to create comics, Oda Shingo quickly made a judgment in his mind: The rent in arrears cannot be paid for the time being!
"Come right away." Oda Shingo stood up, quickly adjusted his appearance in the broken mirror, and then opened the door.
After Oda Shingo opened the door, he smiled and bowed with Japanese etiquette.
"Hello, landlady. Thank you for taking care of me."
Bowing with respect at a thirty-degree angle, the details of the action are very standard.
Mrs. Yukino Midwinter was stunned.
Before she came, she had thought about what might happen.
Because this is not the first time she has come to ask for rent.
The first time he pretended to be sick, the second time he pretended not to be at home, the third time his attitude was arrogant...
Unexpectedly, this time, the tenant Shingo Oda opened the door and greeted him with a smile.
Is this also a routine? Mrs. Yukino Midwinter speculated in her mind.
"Hello, Mr. Oda." After thinking about it, Mrs. Yukino Mifuyu bowed very politely, and the two parties exchanged a few polite words at the door.
As she spoke, Mrs. Yukino Mifuyu had some doubts as to whether she had gone astray.
Is the Oda Shingo in front of me the same young man with unkempt beard that I saw before?
Dress appropriately and speak politely.
Even if it is not used as a reference, the whole person's energy and spirit are completely different!
After all, they are just two people, right?
Mrs. Yukino Mito, who was very knowledgeable, was confused and couldn't help but secretly look at the young man in front of her again.
"It's been very windy these two days. I'm really sorry that I bothered you to come see me." Oda Shingo said politely.
As long as the matter is not urgent, it is a tradition in Japan, especially in Tokyo, to chat for a long time before getting down to business.
It is said that it is even worse in Kyoto. Maybe the two parties chatted happily for half an hour before bringing up the serious matter, and then they wanted to kill the household registration booklet opposite them...
Oda Shingo was also looking at the landlady.
In this era, it is relatively rare to dress up in a kimono.
A very beautiful woman, no, I should say very delicate.
He has fair skin, a frail figure, and his mannerisms and speech suggest that he comes from a traditional family.
"The landlady is here, presumably because of the rent, right?" Oda Shingo's face quickly became serious.
In her memory, her deceased husband seemed to be a boss of a certain family...
Oda Shingo had no doubt that if the landlady got angry, he would be thrown into the street at the least possible risk.
It is entirely possible to be sunk to the bottom of the Meguro River in Tokyo...
"Oh, since Mr. Oda brought it up on his own initiative, let's talk about it." Mrs. Yukino Mifuyu's beautiful eyes widened slightly, "Mr. Oda Shingo, is there anything wrong with the apartment room? Are you living there well? Habit?"
She is actually not short of money, but collecting rent is her current job.
Oda Shingo heard that her words were very polite.
If he owes her three months' rent, 99% of Japanese people will abandon their usual politeness and directly scold her, or even evict her directly.
Japanese society seems to be very polite, but at its core it is more utilitarian than any other country.
It can be said that worshiping the strong and despising the weak is their law of heaven.
People who are behind on their rent are losers. The most common thing that happens is that the tenant stands down and asks for a deferral of rent payment.
The landlord scolded the tenant who defaulted on rent, and even rushed to the street and threw luggage everywhere, but no one said anything.
"Madam, the conditions of the apartment are acceptable and meet my income standards." Oda Shingo stood up straight and said with a serious face, "I don't want to make any excuses with you, this..."
As Oda Shingo spoke, he observed the landlady's face.
But the expected change of expression did not happen. Mrs. Yukino Mito raised her head slightly, without any intention of scolding, and just listened carefully to what he continued to say.
"I'm really sorry. I have to say sorry to you." Anyone else might have been embarrassed to say anything when they saw the beautiful landlady looking at her like this, but Oda Shingo said very firmly, " I need to continue to default on your rent!”
Mrs. Yukino Mifuyu looked at Oda Shingo, her face still smiling. After a few seconds, she slowly said, "Since Mr. Oda is so frank, I need a reason."
In fact, today is the last time she plans to come.
If she is treated like before, Yukino Shindong will leave it to someone around her...
However, Mr. Oda seems a little different this time.
"..." Oda Shingo did not give the reason immediately.
He quickly analyzed the landlady's dress and behavior in his mind.
Although she was wearing a kimono with four seasons, it was obviously made of luxurious materials, and with the top-grade pure handwork, the cost must be no less than one million yen.
She had very few jewelry on her body and light makeup on her face, but her lip gloss and cheek base color were luxury goods. The hair in her bun was also carefully taken care of, and the slight fragrance also fully demonstrated the expensiveness of the hair wax.
In terms of behavior, she was very decent and polite. Her posture and tone of voice were perfect, and she obviously had a very good upbringing.
Then, this landlady is not short of money!
It can even be boldly speculated that collecting rent may just be a kind of work hobby of hers!
"Landlady, to be honest, I did make some money from working part-time recently..." Oda Shingo told the truth.
As he said this, Oda Shingo was still observing.
Mrs. Yukino Fuyuki still had a smile on her face, and she seemed to be listening quietly.
If she were a friend, she would be a good listener to troubles. This was the feeling she gave Oda Shingo.
This lady, is she that kind of high-quality woman? Oda Shingo remembered an article he had read in his previous life that studied women.
High-quality women may not have outstanding looks, but they are the kind that men find very attractive.
However, this lady is also very beautiful and has a good figure. If her hair is dyed white, she might give people the feeling of a famous snow woman.
He continued to explain in a serious manner: "I plan to start creating comics recently, and I really need start-up funds. So, I'm very sorry that I can't repay the rent I owe you for the time being."
He bowed at a 90-degree angle, with an attitude of solemn apology.
Mrs. Yukino Fuyuki asked slowly: "Animation? Specifically, what do you want to do?"
"I have an idea and I'm going to submit it." Oda Shingo explained immediately.
"The market is now tired of harems, and the anime market dominated by different worlds lacks innovative ideas..."
"Publishers are eager for success, and producers are impatient, ignoring the tendency that readers are gradually tired of it..."
Oda Shingo used his rich experience in the past life, and used his memory and the understanding of the anime market just now on the computer to analyze the current anime industry in this world.
This...what he said...Yukino Fuyuki was surprised.
Mrs. Yukino Fuyuki had some contact with the anime industry, but had never analyzed the market situation.
After hearing this, it seemed that this young man had seriously thought about the anime market.
Mrs. Yukino Fuyuki looked at Oda Shingo again.
Simple outfit, cheap clothes, delicate but weak facial features, it is easy for the elder sister to have a feeling that she can't help but want to bully him.
But his words and deeds are not at all impetuous of young people. Combined with the temperament shown by his standing posture and eyes, he is more like a veteran who has been in the workplace for a long time.
What a strange feeling...
Mrs. Yukino Fuyu has met all kinds of people in the process of collecting rent, but this is the first time she has met a young man who she cannot understand.
"I see. I am very honored that you can share so many ideas with me." Mrs. Yukino Fuyu looked directly at Oda Shingo and put forward her own ideas, "Before deciding whether to accept your request for arrears, can I take a look at your room?"
Hearing this, Oda Shingo was stunned. Somehow, countless familiar plots appeared in his mind...
For example, the plumber who came to the door, the female tutor, and the courier who broke into the room...
