Crossover Anime: Not Joining the Service Club at the Start

"It's not expensive, about the same price as the subway in China."

bargain?

How much?

Bargaining with your own mother will never get you the result you want.

Unless you are in the right.

“Oh, oh,” Wen’s mother said with a sudden realization, then said irritably, “Why didn’t you just say it was the subway? Why did you have to tell me it was a tram?”

"I thought it was some kind of new charging gadget."

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do," Cheng Shi joked, then changed the subject, "So, Mom, why do you want me to go to Tokyo?"

"Oh, I want you to go there to visit relatives!"

"Visiting relatives?" Cheng Shi was dumbfounded: "We have relatives in Tokyo? It can't be the kind that's eight generations removed, can it?"

“Eight farts,” Mother Wen categorically denied. “Why would I invite such a distant relative over? Are you just bored?”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi moved away from the microphone and whispered, "You've definitely eaten your fill by now."

"What did you say?"

"Oh no, no, no, what's that distant relative's name?"

“Emm,” Wen’s mother fell into memories.

three seconds later

"Wait a minute, let me go find the chat history."

Cheng Shi was speechless.

"Hey, I found her. Her name is Eri Kisaki, and she's a lawyer in Tokyo now."

"Oh."

So her surname is Fei? But isn't my mother's surname Liu?

and many more!

Eri Kisaki? That name sounds familiar...

"Mom, say that person's name again."

"Her surname was Fei, and her given name was Yingli," Mother Wen said, recalling the events. "She was the daughter of your maternal grandmother's eldest aunt's daughter."

Halfway through her speech, Wen's mother almost lost her train of thought.

Fortunately, she managed to break free in the end using her own methods.

"In short, they are distant relatives by blood."

"Is this still a bit?" Cheng Shi couldn't help but complain when he heard his mother's summary. "It's more than three generations apart, isn't it?"

"Oh dear, what can we do?" Wen's mother was quite helpless about this.

"Who told your grandmother to have such a good memory?" Wen's mother whispered, "As soon as she heard that you went to Japan alone, she dug out the family tree from the old house."

"What are you talking to your friend about?" (Hakka dialect)

To avoid being accused of padding the word count, the use of dialect and translation in a chapter will only be done once.

"No, they didn't say anything, just some ordinary conversation. (Guest)"

"Oh, tell him quickly, tell him to go find his sister right away. (Guest)"

"Okay, okay, we'll talk about it later."

"Ah."

After listening to the conversation between the two elders on the phone, Cheng Shi cautiously said, "Hello?"

"Mom, why did you go to Grandma's house? And what's going on with my sister?"

"Of course it was your grandma who called to say she missed me," Wen's mother said irritably, "but I didn't expect that she actually missed you!"

"Hahaha," Cheng Shi didn't dare to reply.

Years of experience have taught him that if he talks to his mother now, whether he agrees or disagrees, he will almost always get a scolding.

Anyway, the result was that my mom was in a good mood.

Therefore, Cheng Shi chose to avoid it directly.

After chuckling for a while, Cheng Shi changed the subject: "So what's next? Are we really going?"

Eri Kisaki, he didn't know if she was the one he was imagining.

"Sigh, go ahead," Wen's mother said helplessly. "Your maternal grandmother has even called."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi couldn't help but twitch his lips.

My own grandmother is incredibly quick to act.

but

"If we just go like this, people will definitely hate us, right?"

After all, it's quite strange when a relative from several generations ago suddenly calls and says they want to visit.

A normal person would think something was wrong, right?

I doubt they'll be very welcoming when I go.

"Perhaps," Wen's mother naturally understood this point, "but there's nothing we can do. Your grandmother is worried about you."

"I was worried you'd be all alone out there without anyone to rely on, so I was called over to help search for you for almost half a month."

At this point, Wen's mother suddenly fell silent.

Cheng Shi also quickly identified the keywords.

"Together!?" Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow: "So you're involved in this operation too?"

"Ahem," Wen's mother sounded a little embarrassed, "There's nothing I can do. A mother worries about her son no matter how far he travels. I am indeed more worried about you than your grandmother."

"Then why were you acting so convincingly when you were criticizing your grandma just now?" Cheng Shi retorted.

There was no reply from Wen's mother, who seemed somewhat embarrassed because she had been exposed.

Cheng Shi didn't pay any attention and continued talking to himself:

"Alright, Mom, stop pretending. You actually talked to her too, didn't you?"

"Huh? How did you know?" Mrs. Wen was very surprised, as she had not revealed any information about this at all.

"Chat logs, Mom, you exposed it yourself."

After all, who can tell someone's profession without knowing them first?

Upon hearing this, Wen's mother immediately abandoned her previous thoughts and said in a defiant manner, "Yes, your mother did talk to them."

"Hmm, and then what? Do you want to go?"

"Hmm?" Hearing this, Wen's mother asked in surprise, "You're not refusing?"

"Oh? You can refuse?"

"It was okay before, but don't even think about it now."

""

I shouldn't have opened my mouth so quickly.

But then again

"Mom, how long have you been talking to that person?"

""

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a quiet, wistful voice: "Can't you be a little naive?"

"Every time this happens, it makes your mom feel so unaccomplished!"

After venting her anger, Wen's mother told the truth:

“It’s been more than five months. We spent a long time just calling your maternal grandmother to look for the family tree. In the end, we finally found your sister.”

To be honest, when I heard those words...

Cheng Shi was still very touched by his mother's actions out of concern for him.

But when he heard the last address, Cheng Shi couldn't hold back his emotions and the mood that had finally surfaced took a sharp turn.

"Sister? What the heck is this?"

"I don't know, but according to that very long family tree, she is your sister."

Chapter 24 Tokyo Trip

Cheng Shi was speechless.

I'm speechless.

"Remember to go tomorrow. Your mom, your grandma, and I have already spoken to her."
