Tokyo landlord: why is the panties of the lady next door in my house?!-Chapter 572 387: Come to see me alone next time, I’ll give you a reward!
After walking out of the cemetery,
Haruka Yuzan noticed a black sedan parked by the roadside.
There was no need to guess who had come.
"Mr. Haruka, wait for me a moment,"
Chiba Shimizu said and walked toward the black Honda. The girl's silhouette looked particularly slender as she got into the car.
Haruka Yuzan saw Chiba Seiryo inside, wearing sunglasses and sitting expressionlessly at the back.
"Wearing sunglasses in the car, such a child,"
he muttered to himself before wandering off to sit down. After all, there was nothing for him to do while the two sisters had their heart-to-heart.
Haruka Yuzan then took out the "Revitalizing Pill" he had; it was dark brown, large, and round, resembling a chocolate bean.
He thought for a moment and took out his phone to call Otome Mizuko.
After a sweet half-hour conversation, the lady seemed to have encountered an emergency and hastily made an appointment with Haruka Yuzan before hanging up.
At this moment, Chiba Shimizu also stepped out of the car. Judging by the girl's expression, their conversation was over.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, let's go."
"Okay."
Haruka Yuzan glanced toward the sedan and saw Chiba Seiryo leaning out of the half-open window, making a gesture to look at his phone.
Then the window rose, and the sedan drove off with a ripple.
"Really, she could have given us a ride, considering how far it is," Haruka Yuzan grumbled.
"Pfft," Chiba Shimizu couldn't help but laugh.
With no choice left, Haruka Yuzan took out his phone to hail a cab. Though this was Tokyo, the area was somewhat remote and taxi fares were extortionate, costing over a thousand yen for a single trip.
While waiting for the cab, Haruka Yuzan checked the message Chiba Seiryo had sent him.
"This time you did well, I'll have a reward for you next time we meet!"
???
What had he done?
Why the sudden praise for a job well done?
Feeling curious, Haruka Yuzan turned to the girl beside him, "Shimizu, what did you talk about with your sister in the car?"
Hearing the question, Chiba Shimizu lifted her gaze, her cool eyes resembling a shallow, tranquil, and clear pond: "I told her that I saw our mother yesterday, and mother misses her very much..."
As she said this, the girl glanced at him.
Everything that happened last night felt like a dream; if she hadn't experienced it herself, she would only think others were deceiving her.
"And those subtitles... what was that about... did Haruka see them?"
Hearing the girl's response, Haruka Yuzan suddenly understood why Chiba Seiryo had said those things to him.
Perhaps the missus believed this to be a signal from Chiba Shimizu, a sign of her desire to return home...
"Yes, let's go home, Sister Reiko must have prepared lunch by now," Haruka Yuzan said with a smile.
"Also, I really appreciate what you did, Haruka," Chiba Shimizu thanked him once more.
Haruka Yuzan grinned, "I've said it many times, this is what I should do. Chiba-san, you are being too polite!"
"Okay."
"But this can be our little secret, don't tell anyone," Haruka Yuzan added.
Chiba Shimizu glanced at him and then nodded, "Alright."
The two got into a taxi, and as they passed through Shibuya, Haruka Yuzan suddenly spotted a familiar figure on the street:
"Teacher Mizutani Nozomi?"
It was indeed the Mizutani Nozomi whom he had not been in contact with for a long time.
Since the start of summer break, Haruka Yuzan had lost touch with this close friend from school. It was quite regrettable, but...
Teacher Mizutani had her own difficulties.
The figure flashed by, and the car continued moving forward.
Upon arriving at the villa's entrance, Haruka Yuzan was surprised to find two large trucks parked on the street.
Mariko Akiyama was there with Misaki Saki, the foolish girl, watching from the doorway.
"What's all this?"
Haruka Yuzan walked over, curious.
Before Akiyama could reply, Misaki Saki excitedly jumped in, "Me, me, me! I know! This is a birthday gift Yumeko-chan bought for Shimizu!"
A gift?
Haruka Yuzan was taken aback, then looked at the large crate being carefully handled by the workers:
"Bechstein 'Louis XV'?"
The Lamborghini of the piano world, worth 400 million yen!
For its 160th anniversary, Bechstein dug out the old custom blueprints and assembled a team of 140 craftsmen, including master piano makers, carvers, painters, and more. It took a full three years and was crafted entirely by hand.

It used a large amount of gold leaf, exquisite craftsmanship, and its appearance was luxurious.
"Yumeko sure is generous,"
Haruka Yuzan was astonished.
Hearing his muse, Misaki Saki's eyes widened, "400 million yen?! Even selling me wouldn't cover it!"
"Selling us all wouldn't be enough," Arisugawa Hoshina added from the side.
"This thing is pretty useless," Chiba Shimizu remained indifferent.
