Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era

  Chapter 10 Special Interview

   During the time when Tao Zhiming was silent, Rana Onodera did not speak.

After a long time, Tao Zhiming suddenly asked, "Where is Miss Runa now?"

   "I'm at the phone booth at the corner of the street!" Onoji Rana's voice was clearly filled with joy, thinking that Tao Zhiming had moved.

   "Wait for me, I'll go over now."

   After hearing her clarify the location, Tao Zhiming hung up the phone and put on casual clothes again. Out of the bedroom door, Yosuke Ueno who saw him dressed up asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

   "Deal with a little thing." Tao Zhiming just said casually, and had already walked to the door to put on his shoes.

   "Want to go out? You won't have to find that woman again just because you got 500,000?"

  Tao Zhiming thought to find a woman, but not the one you think. He complained: "When did the tenant start to control the landlord's whereabouts?"

   Ueno Yosuke could only watch him go out, and scratch his head.

   Tao Dalang has changed a lot since he was rescued by himself last night.

   But he couldn't be like Tao Zhiming, he was very aggressive in paying attention to other people's private lives. He could only suppress his inner curiosity and prepare to ask him again tomorrow.

   Tao Zhiming didn't go very far when he saw Rana Onodera standing next to a public telephone booth.

   On the street in the middle of the night, if this is in a lively nightlife district, I am afraid that others will be regarded as a woman who attracts guests.

   He walked to Onodera Rana and said, "Let's go."

   Onodera Runa bowed, then lowered his head and didn't speak, just quietly followed him slightly behind.

   Tao Zhiming walked to the street and waved for a taxi.

   It was late at night, but there were not many cars on the road. After all, this area is not an area with very rich nightlife, and most of the taxis go to such places to solicit customers.

   After waiting for a while, a car stopped.

   Tao Zhiming said, "Tell the driver where your house is, and I'll take you back."

   Onodera Runa looked at him in amazement, but Tao Zhiming had already opened the car door.

  The situation was controlled by Tao Zhiming, and Rana Onodera couldn't ask anything in front of the driver. After she told her where she lived, she could only guess the current situation in her heart.

  Tao Jun is indeed different now. He was not as restrained as before when facing himself just now, and even had an unquestionably tough attitude.

   She thought Tao Zhiming was going to enjoy the good feeling from today, and asked her to follow him to a hotel or something.

   In this regard, Rana Onodera has already made up her mind during the wait just now.

  But why send her home?

   Onodera Rana felt uneasy in her heart. She hoped that Tao Zhiming agreed to her conditions, but she was afraid that Tao Zhiming was just sending her home, and she was even more afraid that Tao Zhiming was going to live where she lived...

   In the face of this man's sudden decision, even if Onodera Rana is no longer an ignorant girl, she can't guess what he is thinking.

  Tao Zhiming kept looking out the window quietly as the taxi passed through Tokyo at night.

   Today's experience is very special to him.

   On the first day after his rebirth, he felt Tao Dalang's status among his classmates, and he was aware of the exclusion he would still encounter as a "naturalized" person in a foreign land.

   At the same time, there is also the maintenance of Yosuke Ueno, the absurdity of getting money during the interview, and the realization that Rana Onodera is busy until late at night to even sacrifice her body.

  The sense of reality after rebirth is established in this way, which are all living beings in Tokyo at this time.

  The taxi drove for nearly an hour until we arrived at a wooden apartment building.

   Seeing that Tao Zhiming paid the taxi fare of 20,000 yen without hesitation, Rana Onodera bowed her head and said nothing.

   Tao Zhiming looked at the apartment building in front of him, it was not as dilapidated as he imagined.

   Onodera Runa was still pondering what he meant, and finally asked, "Tao Jun, can you not stay at home?"

  Tao Zhiming laughed dumbly: "Where did Miss Runai think? I'm just taking you home. Please come home and drink a glass of water before leaving."

   Onodera Runa finally asked, "Does Tao-kun doubt what I said?"

   "No, I believe it." Tao Zhiming was already walking towards the stairs outside the apartment building, "But I want to know what kind of person Miss Runa is in life."

"Eh?" Onodera Runa didn't quite understand his thoughts, but it seemed that Tao Jun really didn't plan to ask her to do anything, and now she was worried that the house thing would fail, and she was a little comforted and disappointed." this way please."

   On the third floor, she gently opened the door of a house.

  The long and narrow room, you can see the pattern at a glance, a small apartment of 1LDK.

   "I'm sorry..." She went inside first, looked at the bedroom, then closed the door, turned on the small light in the living room, and went to the door to invite Tao Zhiming to come in.

  Tao Zhiming looked around at the furnishings and decorations in the room, and he couldn't call it orderly, but the children's schoolbags, cute umbrellas, and books on the small table next to them all showed that there was indeed a little girl living here.

   is probably asleep in the bedroom.

   Onodera Runa poured a glass of water, knelt down beside the low table and bowed: "Tao Jun, thank you for spending money to send me back. But your decision..."

   Her voice was low.

  Tao Zhiming waved his hand: "Don't worry about this. Miss Runa probably wondered why I asked about your income."

"Yes…"

  Tao Zhiming turned around and continued to look at the room: "How much is the rent for the apartment a month?"

   "Huh?" Rana Onodera really had difficulty adapting to the rhythm of his topic, so he could only reply, "I hope I can live in a safer place, so I have to pay 40,000 a month for the apartment..."

  Tao Zhiming nodded: "If you can successfully sign an agreement every month, can you get an additional 300,000 yen as a bonus?"

   "That requires good luck..." Onodera Runa said truthfully, "On average, I can earn more than 200,000 yen per month."

"Is it more than 200,000 yen?" Tao Zhiming muttered and said, "I can't sell the house right now, but there is one thing I can help Miss Runa. My house is a 3LDK, and there is one room left empty. If Ms. Runa thinks that Ueno-kun and I can trust you, you can consider moving there. If you have rent, you don't have to pay me until the house is sold."

   "Huh?" Onodera Rana really didn't know what he was thinking, "But Miko goes to school..."

   "Is the distance too far?" Tao Zhiming suddenly smiled and asked, "If I can help Mizi transfer to a better private school when school starts, will Miss Runa be willing to do anything?"

   Onodera Rana just felt that his smile was full of bewitching, after all, was it with his special request?

   She looked at the bedroom and hesitated: "Of course I hope Mizi can...but..."

"I understand that this is a very hasty proposal for Miss Runa." Tao Zhiming smiled again, "However, living with two students from Dongda University temporarily, Ueno-kun is a very caring and very kind person. A gentle and enthusiastic boy may be able to help Mizi's study."

   Onodera Runa stared blankly at Tao Zhiming: "Tao Jun, what the **** are you..."

Tao Zhiming recalled several meetings with Onodera Runa in Tao Dalang's memory, as well as her performance last night and today, and said frankly: "I have a plan, and I may need Miss Runa to work for me in the future. In March, If you live with me temporarily, the cost of rent has not increased, but there is no need to pay for water and electricity, and it is closer to the place of work, so Miss Runa has nothing to lose."

"And I am easy to observe Miss Runa's character and ability. If you can meet my requirements, starting from April, Miss Runa can expect to earn at least 500,000 yen per month. Take this March as I'll give you a special interview."

  500,000 yen per month? A special interview?

   Onodera Runa frantically looked at this young boy, and was in a state of turmoil.

   But why does his face have such a certain confidence in the dim light?

  Tao Zhiming smiled again and stood up: "Think about it."

   said goodbye and left her house, leaving Rana Onodera standing at the door in a bewildered way, watching him walk away.
