Crossover Anime: Not Joining the Service Club at the Start

Wen's mother's instructions came through the phone again.

"But why?" Cheng Shi still had some questions.

“I already have this house, and I don’t have to worry about living expenses at all, so why would I want to go looking for that sister I have no connection with?”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mrs. Wen asked, puzzled. "Aren't you still renting a place to live?"

"Huh? No?"

As Cheng Shi spoke, a sudden pain shot through his mind.

Then a memory flashed through my mind.

It turns out that the previous owner had not told his parents about the house.

The reason is that the house is too cheap.

Furthermore, the old man's circumstances were also too bizarre.

In addition, we will definitely need to find another tenant for this house later.

When the time comes, whether to rent out the house or sell it cheaply will ultimately be up to him to decide.

After all, he is not a citizen of this country.

I definitely want to go back to my hometown.

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi quickly began to make amends.

"That's right, I recently wrote a few songs online and someone took a liking to them."

"Then (blah blah blah) in short, you don't need to give me living expenses for the next six months."

Upon hearing this, Wen's mother remained silent for a moment.

Then he questioned, "You actually have this ability?"

Cheng Shi was speechless for a moment.

However, he was still aware that his mother hadn't realized what was happening yet.

She said that simply to make herself understand, son, that you can't fool your mother. It's just that kind of rhetoric.

So, Cheng Shi immediately sent over a few songs from his phone.

"Mom, open WeChat and listen for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Wen's mother opened a green software.

When she heard music coming from the phone, Wen's mother fell silent.

This kid actually has that skill!?

She took a deep breath: "How much did you sell these songs for?"

"Not much, 10." Cheng Shi made up a number.

After all, he had no idea about the music market here, so he had no idea how much it would cost.

Furthermore, he hasn't even started selling songs yet.

Wen's mother was unaware of this, and the moment she heard the number, she gasped in shock.

Although their family is not poor.

But you can earn 10 just by writing a few songs?!

Did you sign a contract with them?

"Huh?" Cheng Shi was taken aback by his mother's question, but he quickly recovered and replied:

"Oh, of course it's signed! This is no small sum."

"Well, Mom, I don't understand this either," Wen's mother said, trying to sound modest before adding, "but there is someone who does."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi knew who she was talking about.

"So, is it absolutely necessary to visit this relative?"

"Yes, remember to bring the contract you signed," Mrs. Wen issued her final ultimatum.

She had originally thought that if she didn't want to go, she wouldn't go; she could just ask Eri to come and visit when she had time.

Whether they want to see it or not depends on their mood.

After all, even if they chat very enthusiastically on the phone or in the chat software, it doesn't mean they'll be fooled.

But once you actually meet them, you really don't know what their attitude will be.

Besides, it's his own son; he can always make a video call, right?

But that's different now.

She really didn't understand anything about selling music or signing contracts.

However, one thing she was clear about was that contracts, which are written in black and white, are very dangerous.

She frequently sees things like dual contracts and slaving contracts on TV and short videos.

Therefore, the first thing she thought of when she heard the word "contract" was a lawyer.

They then inquired about Eri Kisaki's profession.

Thus, what was originally just a simple family visit, as Cheng Shi had thought, that he could choose whether or not to go, suddenly became a situation where he had no choice at all.

But Cheng Shi had no idea what his mother was thinking.

But even if they knew, they probably wouldn't think much of it, after all, the name Eri Kisaki...

Detective Conan is one of the anime series he's watched the longest!

The next day, on the train to Tokyo.

Cheng Shi looked at the news about Shinichi Kudo in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Great, now we just need to confirm whether the woman we visited has the same name.

but

How should I greet people when I get there?

You can't really call me "sister," can you?

I feel a little hesitant to speak.

Also, what should I do if this Eri Kisaki is not that Eri Kisaki?

Are you still going to watch Detective Conan?

And so, Cheng Shi spent the rest of the journey lost in thought.

"Ding—We've arrived in Tokyo."

As the tram station announcements came on, Cheng Shi finally snapped out of his reverie.

"Forget it, whatever, we're already here, let's see what happens!"

A collection of versatile Chinese sayings.

After exiting the station, Cheng Shi began to look around.

Soon, he spotted an elegant woman standing next to a Mini Cooper.

She was wearing a purple women's suit and square-framed glasses.

Upon first seeing her, Cheng Shi immediately gained a solid impression of the descriptions of Eri Kisaki's appearance found on Baidu.

And the casting for that second-glance, ridiculous live-action drama was just... (a hodgepodge of birdsong and fragrant flowers).

Yes, that was a very profound lesson.

Out of boredom and a bit of curiosity, Cheng Shi glanced at the live-action TV series, and then...

Sigh, let's not talk about this anymore.

Okay, time to call and confirm.

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi picked up his phone and dialed the number his mother had sent him yesterday.

Not long after, he caught a glimpse of the real-life Eri Kisaki answering the phone.

"Hey?"

"Ah, hello, I'm Wen Chengshi. My mom sent me to find you."

After saying all this, Cheng Shi felt a strange sense of embarrassment.

That's a bit much, it's like they had nothing else to say.

Fortunately, Eri Kisaki didn't seem to mind. She said gently:

"Oh, it's Cheng Shi. Where are you now? Have you gotten off at the station?"

"Yes, I'm out. I'm at the station entrance now." Cheng Shi's tone was slightly unfamiliar.

Eri Kisaki didn't mind, since the two of them had never met before.

It would be even stranger if they were too familiar with each other!
