Kyoto: I just want to be a gentleman

Why Taniguchisonomachi?

Could it be that he went to the wrong place?

Watanabe Hideyuki looked around again and again, and after making sure that he was not in the wrong place, he stayed where he was.

How about changing to another firm? But it seems that this is the only agency nearby that provides support for minors to provide guarantees.

If he goes in, will it have an inexplicable butterfly effect on himself two years later?

Especially... when I met the agent from last time...

But then again, is this agency the same one he went to last time?

Is it possible that they just have the same name?

While Watanabe Hideyuki was still thinking, the glass door of the agency in front of him was pushed open from the inside.

An agency employee wearing a neat suit and tie walked out with a worried look on his face. He had already taken out a cigarette from his jacket pocket, but when he saw Watanabe Hideyuki standing at the door, he was stunned for a moment, then put the cigarette back into his pocket and greeted him enthusiastically.

It’s over. I can’t leave this time even if I want to.

Watanabe Hideyuki wailed in his heart.

"Hello, do you need to rent a house?" The man bowed first, then solemnly added, "Our agency has...it is definitely your best choice..."

"We've contacted each other on the phone before." Watanabe Hideyuki showed the text message records on his phone.

The man suddenly realized: "Oh, you are the Watanabe classmate, please come in."

As the man spoke, he stepped aside to make way for Watanabe Hideyuki and led him into the office.

The light in the room was soft, and there were several tables put together, covered with various documents and materials. Several staff members were busy typing on their computers, and when they saw outsiders coming in, they all nodded in a friendly manner.

"Please take a seat, Watanabe-san." The man guided Watanabe Hideyuki to an empty reception area and handed him a cup of hot tea. "This is the special tea that our top salesperson brought from his hometown in Shikoku. Please try it."

Watanabe Hideyuki took the disposable paper cup filled with half a cup of tea with both hands, took a sip, and the refreshing fragrance made him relax a little.

"Thank you."

"Mr. Watanabe, you mentioned on your phone that you were interested in house rental. I wonder if you have any specific requirements for the house?" The man sat opposite Watanabe Hideyuki and took out a notebook, ready to record details.

Watanabe Hideyuki put down his tea and began to list his needs: "I want a clean and sanitary house with basic furniture and appliances... The most important thing is to provide a guarantee service and be able to move in with your luggage."

The man carefully recorded the information, nodding his head from time to time. After recording, he took out some information from the folder and began to recommend a house that met Watanabe Hideyuki's needs.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Watanabe, there is only one house for rent that meets your requirements..." The man took out a document from the bottom of a pile of documents and handed it to Watanabe Hideyuki, "This house is not far from here, would you like to go with me to take a look..."

"Okay." Watanabe Hideyuki agreed.

When he pushed the door and was about to leave, he heard several employees at the door talking about something.

"Senior Hase, I heard that the office is moving. Is that true?" a young employee asked curiously while drinking the iced coffee in his hand.

Hase, the older employee, looked up from his busy work and nodded affirmatively, "Yes, President Yokota has finalized the plan. We will soon move to Yamanouchi Araki-cho, where the location is better and close to the city center. Not only are there abundant properties, but the potential customer base is also larger."

When the young employee heard this, his eyes suddenly sparkled with anticipation and longing, "Then our business will definitely be even busier in the future, and our income should also increase, right?"

Hase smiled softly, "That's inevitable, but there are also commuting problems. Yamanouchi Araki-cho is quite far from where we are now, and the daily commuting time will probably increase by about an hour."

The young employee's expression suddenly dimmed, "If this is the case, many colleagues will choose to resign..."

"If they leave, we can just hire new people," Hase said calmly, "In this era, there is a lack of everything, but there is no lack of labor like us." He patted the young employee's shoulder hard to comfort him, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened YouTube, and started watching beautiful dancing videos, as if all this had nothing to do with him...

Chapter 108 I'll be waiting for you at the end of time (3)

Watanabe Hideyuki looked at the house in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

The location was remote, the walls were mottled, and the exterior was much older than he had expected.

Can people really live here?

However, when he walked into the house, he saw a completely different scene. The decoration inside the house was simple and warm, and although the furniture was not brand new, it exuded a retro charm.

The sunlight came in softly through the window, filling the whole room with a warm atmosphere.

Watanabe Hideyuki felt a little relieved this time.

It seems to be ok.

Moreover, the remote location and old appearance of the house can better hide his whereabouts.

He was very satisfied.

But due to financial constraints, Watanabe Hideyuki had to think of some tricks to try to lower the rent.

He took a deep breath, turned to face the real estate agent, and showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"Although the interior of this house is nice, the exterior is indeed too old, and the location is so remote." Watanabe Hideyuki said with embarrassment, "I'm afraid it's not easy to rent a house like this in the market, right?"

After hearing what Watanabe said, the agent looked embarrassed and said, "Mr. Watanabe, this house is indeed a bit old, but the interior decoration and maintenance are very good. Moreover, the quietness and seclusion here are also what many people pursue."

"I understand, but considering my financial situation," Hideyuki Watanabe sighed, "it's really hard for me to afford such a high rent."

The agent hesitated for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Mr. Watanabe, I can talk to the landlord and see if I can give him some discounts on the rent."

In fact, his heart was already filled with joy.

I don’t know how long this house has been on the market in their office, but no one has shown any interest in it yet.

It’s not because of its dilapidated appearance, but mainly because it is located in a remote area and the house is small, so it can only provide normal living space for 1-2 people.

If he could make this deal happen, not to mention the commissions on both sides, the extra commission from the guarantee company alone would be a good income.

Moreover, it can solve the troubles of landlords who originally thought that there was no hope of renting out the property.

Kill three birds with one stone.

After friendly communication between him and the landlord and his persistent argument, he finally managed to lower the rent for this young customer to 30,000 yen per month.

Hideyuki Watanabe was also satisfied with the price.

Although the price was not reduced by much, it was still slightly lower than the rental price of nearby houses that he had previously learned about.

Moreover, the other party did not raise the price excessively because he was young and in urgent need of housing, which made him feel comfortable.

Including the gift money, deposit, guarantee and a host of other miscellaneous expenses, Watanabe Hideyuki spent a total of nearly 200,000 yuan as rent for the past few months.

Although he was not sure when he could leave this hellhole, he had to pay the rent at least every three months. This was a hard condition.

So after signing the contract, there was only about 100,000 yen left in Watanabe Hideyuki's wallet.

After the agent left.

Hideyuki Watanabe first cleaned the house simply, and then went to a nearby supermarket to buy brand new bed sheets, quilt covers and some basic daily necessities.

After tidying up the house, Watanabe Hideyuki lay down on the sofa in the living room and let out a long sigh.

He finally settled down temporarily in this world.

The next task should be to find a job, take care of your daily needs while looking for an opportunity to go back.

Watanabe Hideyuki gets a headache when it comes to part-time jobs.

He had been steadily moving towards a comfortable life with the help of Arisa Kuroda, but in the end he was brought back to square one.

if...

If he sneaks back to his sister-in-law's house now, steals his bank card, and withdraws his one million savings, it should be able to last for a while...

But what's the matter with stealing your own things?

No, stealing your own things cannot be called stealing, it should be called taking!

However, this dangerous thought only stayed in Watanabe Hideyuki's mind for a brief moment.

There is no other reason.

Watanabe Hideyuki didn't want to see this absurd farce of calling the police to arrest him.

So...

That’s not the case...For a moment, Watanabe Hideyuki couldn’t think of any good solution.

If you go out to work, you will undoubtedly come into contact with a large number of people, which will add many uncertain risks to the future.

Risk represents great uncertainty.

If someone with ulterior motives noticed that two identical people appeared in two different locations at the same time, it would be difficult for him not to be caught for human research.

But this is something that is unavoidable. As long as he needs to live, he will inevitably leave traces of his presence in this world. He does not have any props such as disguise techniques or masks.

So what he can do is to be as careful as possible to avoid getting involved in unnecessary trouble.

...

A few days passed in this dull and ordinary life.

During these few days, Watanabe Hideyuki has been staying at home and has not been able to think of a more reasonable way to support himself.

So his mood became more and more irritable.

It would be fine if I didn’t know how to get back, but now even eating in a month or two has become a problem.

In order to prevent these negative emotions from affecting his thoughts, Watanabe Hideyuki found a good way to relieve stress.

That is...

Yes, night running.

There are many people doing morning exercises in the morning, but he doesn't dare to go out to exercise, so he can always do it in the evening.

The streets were empty at night, with only the stars in the sky and the dim street lights illuminating the empty road ahead.

Watanabe Hideyuki ran alone in the night, his footsteps echoing in the quiet streets, clear and powerful.

The cool night breeze blew gently, taking away the sweat and fatigue of the day.

Sure enough, proper exercise can help people keep their minds clear.

He felt that as a reborn person.

He has brought shame to all the seniors.

I'm about to lose myself after being reborn.
