Chapter 187 Kyoto Part 2
“Takeda, who are they?” Takeda Yifu asked his son.
Takeda put his arm around Lei Yin’s shoulders and said: “His name is Gennai Masashi, my University classmate, and my good friend. Next to him is his girlfriend, her name is Hase Naoko. Right, I almost forgot. This little girl is his distant relative, we call her little Amy. Masashi is her temporary guardian.”
After listening to his presentation, Takeda Yifu dryly said: “Since he is your classmate, it’s your duty to take care of them.”
Although this so-called classmate of his son did not wear fancy dress or wore strangely decorated accessories and hair dyed in a wacky color like a punk. But seeing that he already has a girlfriend within the first year of college, in his heart, Takeda Yifu already classified him as an unambitious young man just like his youngest son.
But toward his old man’s cold shoulder approach on them, Takeda instead was very happy with this result. He smiled and then said: “I will entertain them. Big brother, when did you get back?”
After a while, Takeda Yifu still has not heard his eldest son’s answer, so he turned around and glanced at him. Only to find his eldest son unblinkingly stared at the young man’s girlfriend. It seemed like his eldest son did not even hear the question from his youngest son.
Takeda Yifu heavily coughed. Takeda Changshi immediately reacted and he awkwardly changed the subject as he said to his younger brother: “I saw in the news that the Teikyo University students who were on an educational trip were hit by a storm, and many students are in the hospital. Are you okay?”
Takeda said: “I am okay, thankfully, we arrived at Yakushima before the storm appeared, so we did not encounter the storm. However, the boat behind us was caught in the storm, but luckily, no one was hurt.”
“Very good then.”
Takeda did not want to stay here any longer so he said to his father and elder brother: “If there is nothing else, we are going to go out now.”
Takeda Yifu nodded his head.
When they walked out of the hall, Takeda Yifu found his eldest son was still watching the back of that beautiful woman, lost in thought.
It seems like it is time to find him a wife, Takeda Yifu said in his mind.
Outside the hall, from his pocket, Takeda fished out the earring that he took off before they went inside the hall and re-worn it on his left ear.
“Everytime I see that old man, I feel like I was seeing my high school disciplinary director. You just heard him said: ‘I don’t expect you to do something good for the family in the future. I would content as long as you don’t give me any trouble.’ Sometimes I wonder if he found me in a toilet.”
Lei Yin gave him a serious look and said: “It is possible. No wonder I always thought that your body has a funny smell.”
“B*stard.” Takeda gave him a middle finger.
When they walked near the garden, Takeda took out his mobile phone to call Yoshikawa.
After hanging up the phone, he said to Lei Yin: “When that guy comes, I will take you out to the best hotel in Kyoto to eat a meal there. And then, tomorrow, I will let you sit in my car and go for a ride. There are many fun places in Kyoto that we can visit.”
Suddenly, Takeda saw a person trimming the flowers within the cluster of flowers and said to himself: “Who is that guy? I’ve never seen him before.”
Lei Yin and Naoko looked at the direction where he was looking and saw in the distance, near the bamboo groove, a tall guy was holding large scissors as he trimmed the nearby weeds.
At this time, the butler Iketani walked by, so Takeda called him and asked about that person’s origin.
The housekeeper Iketani said: “Young master Hidetoshi, that man is the new handy man that was invited by the master. I heard that he seemed to have saved young miss Nadeshiko, so young miss requested the master to let him do things here. He rarely spoke, and when he first came in, his clothes were tattered like a stowaway (illegal immigrant; In Japan, they all come by boat). I really don’t understand why master would let someone with unknown origin stay here. I think we should know more about how he could save young miss Nadeshiko.
Right, young master Hidetoshi, if my guess is correct, then he is definitely not a Japanese. Because I once heard him speak, and his accent was strange, completely unlike a native Japanese. I wonder if he is really an illegal immigrant. Moreover....” Takeda knew that once this butler started talking, he would not be able to stop himself. So Takeda stopped him, “I know, what’s his name?”
“He said his name is Brin. You see, even his name isn’t a Japanese name. Young master Hidetoshi, I think we better alarm the police. If he really is an illegal immigrant, I don’t know what kind of accident he would bring us.” The old butler appeared to be worried.
“I will ask my sister about this particular situation, no need for you to care about it. Why don’t you help us prepare our lunch? After the meal, we are going to go out.”
“I understand.” The old housekeeper reluctantly walked away.
When the old butler was gone, Takeda found out that Lei Yin was looking strangely at the new handyman.
“Masashi, what’s wrong.”
“It’s nothing.” Lei Yin slowly recovered his gaze.
In the evening, Takeda and Yoshikawa acted as the host to lead Lei Yin and Naoko to eat at the nearby large Hotel.
After finishing their dinner, Takeda cheerfully proposed to go for a ride.
Lei Yin, who was feeling full after satiating his appetite, did not want to go. But he could not bear to dampen his friend’s excitement, so he nodded in agreement.
Naoko has a mild motion sickness so she just wanted to have a good rest and did not go with them.
When they went out, Lei Yin sat in Takeda’s car, the $ 210.000 worth of Lamborghini sports car, which was the prize his brother sent to him after Takeda was admitted to Teikyo University.
“What do you think, it’s cool isn’t it?” After driving for a mile, Takeda very proudly said.
Lei Yin said: “You car’s only advantage is to dry your hair after you take a shower and sit in here while driving it; the hair will dry naturally. Or, you can also use this car to dry your freshly laundered clothes.”
For this review, which can’t be called as a praise, Takeda was very dissatisfied: “This is a convertible sports car, of course, this will satisfy the craving of going against the wind.”
The nearby Yoshikawa said: “This guy can’t wait to drive this car, everyday he would lit the incense and bow down to ease his mind.”
“D*mn!” Takeda, all of a sudden, accelerated the car. The oncoming strong wind blew all their hair backward.
“Whoo, this is so great,” Takeda shouted out like a madman.
Lei Yin was glad that Naoko did not come with them; women sometimes can really tell the future.
After driving for half an hour, Takeda suddenly stopped the car.
“What are you doing?” Yoshikawa asked.
“I drank too much water. I need to relieve myself.” With that, he ran to the roadside bush.
After he went there for a few minutes, a scream suddenly sounded from that place.
Yoshikawa and Lei Yin’s face immediately changed, because they recognized that it was the voice of Takeda.
Lei Yin immediately jumped out of the car and rushed over to that place.
