Chapter 4 We all have a bright future
Climbing back to the living floor along the rusty exterior staircase, Tazakiji was so tired that he was sweating and panting.
The original owner has been a waste of house in the past ten years, and his health is so poor that he is in a state of weakness.
It seems that fitness has to be put on the agenda...
Tazaki took out the key and opened the door of his house.
A six-stack room, about 9 square meters in size, plus a small kitchen and a small bathroom, are all.
A little shabby.
There is almost no interior decoration in the room, only a desk, a bookshelf, and a wooden wardrobe. The bed is a tatami that is directly spread on the ground, occupying one-third of the space in the room.
Actually, it’s okay. Once you have more things, you feel like you’ll think about extra things. For example, if you have a gaming console, you will definitely waste a lot of time playing games.
There are fewer things and easy to take care of, so the room will not be dirty easily.
Very reasonable.
Although this small home is a bit broken, it is generally satisfactory.
It's definitely not because the rent here is cheap.
The main reason is that the transportation is quite convenient and is close to Kabukicho.
And the rent is only 40,000 yen.
Turn on the lights and change into indoor shoes. After walking a few steps, Tazakiji covered his nose.
The weather has been relatively humid recently. Because the room faces south and north, the sun cannot shine in, so there is a faint smell of mold in the air.
I’m satisfied with the hammer. When will I get rich, the first thing I do is to move!
Tazakiji walked into the kitchen and found that there was a rice cooker cooked in the morning. He looked at the refrigerator and a small piece of chicken, so he planned to cook some chicken soup and just eat it simply.
His request is already very simple and unpretentious...
But when it was almost cooked, Tazaki frowned and used up the salt.
The nearest convenience store is about 500 meters away... He thought about the calories he would consume in the next round trip, and decided to just give it a try.
After dinner, Tazaki wrote in his diary: Chicken soup without salt is like drinking chicken bath water.
Under the mold-filled ceiling, there are pale energy-saving lamps hanging, tiny dust floating in the air, a moth is circling around the lampshade, and its lonely shadow is on the ground.
The atmosphere is boring and boring.
Tazaki finished his homework, closed the homework book, and looked at the time. It was already past 11 o'clock in the evening.
Turning around and coming to the faded tatami, Tazaki lifted the mat and put 40,000 yen in. This is the rent that will be paid in a few days. The remaining money is only 20,000 left.
The money is not spent... Maybe you have to find a way to find another part-time job.
After washing up, Tazakiji packed up the garbage, turned off the lights, and came to the window to sit down.
The night sky in Tokyo is very bright, with a little alcohol and fatigue floating in the air.
Not far away, there are bustling high-rise buildings in Xishinjuku. Many office buildings have lights on the lattice. Occasionally, you can see one or two social animals standing in front of the glass window, looking at the bustling night view of Tokyo in a daze.
Tazaki played with his phone for a while, accidentally clicked into the album and saw a photo.
A blond girl with blue eyes and unparalleled beauty.
Qikawa Wei, the original owner, has started to fall in love with someone he has not yet known what he likes.
A large part of the reason why he committed suicide by swallowing medicine is because of the failure of confession twenty days ago.
Tazaki looked at the photos and compared the current situation of the two.
She lives in a maze-like mansion, enjoying the life of a group of servants, skiing in the Alps in winter and surfing in Hawaii in summer; while she lives in a dark and humid rental house, drinking chicken bath water and enjoying free night view of Tokyo.
Very good, we all had a good time.
...
The next morning, I was called out by the alarm clock while I was half asleep and half awake.
Tazaki entered the bathroom while yawning, brushed her teeth with half-closed eyes, washed her face, put on her shirt and trousers.
call out!
Tie your tie.
The smooth mirror reflects his appearance.
The clear pupils and a high nose bridge have just woken up, with a slight lazy expression, and the whole person exudes a strong and beautiful boyish style.
My face was a little pale and looked a little thin, otherwise the charm value would be a little higher.
Tazaki took the garbage he had packed yesterday and pushed open the door. What appeared in his sight was a disorienting view.
In front of the residential building is a large park covered with greenery. The sky is brightly blue, a middle area between green and green. The large and small buildings in the downtown area of Shinjuku are located in it, as if they are stacked with LEGO blocks lightly.
Suddenly a sensation of dizziness spread in my chest.
This is Tokyo~!
The scene inside and outside the door seemed to be two completely different worlds. Tazaki looked at the glass buildings that were shining in the spring glow and thought to himself: I want to live in this city.
“Ah~~”
Yawning while swiping the card to enter the station.
"Please pay attention when the tram enters the station"
"Please transfer passengers get off in an orderly manner"
A radio sounded from the loudspeaker, and under the push of the crowd, Tazakiji squeezed into the central line car at 8:00.
After 20 minutes, get off at Shigu Station.
After leaving the bus stop, walking through the bustling avenue, turning into the ramp leading to the school gate in front of a large shopping mall, there are more and more students wearing the same uniforms around them.
The high school girl bathed in the spring of April, her skirt swayed with a youthful atmosphere, which made people feel the urge to poke her head into the underside of the skirt to take a look.
Stepping on the pink and white cherry blossoms covered with school roads, Tazaki entered the private Kitagawa Academy.
As soon as you enter the school gate, you will see a tall beech tree, which is at least a hundred years old. Standing under the tree and looking up, you will feel that even the sky is covered by green leaves.
After passing the beech tree, it is a school road full of cherry blossoms. When you pass through the school road, you will be able to see the coastline of Tokyo Bay in the distance.
Speaking of which, the arrangement of the school buildings is also a bit strange.
A common teaching building, a junior college teaching building, a community building, a comprehensive building, and four buildings are arranged together like the Chinese character "mouth".
The buildings at each right angle have an aerial corridor connected to the other two adjacent buildings. The open space surrounded by the quadrilateral school building is the vast expansive place - the atrium.
On the left side of the school building is a playground for both baseball and football, and there are six tennis courts next to it. At both ends of the playground are a swimming pool and a gymnasium, which have basketball courts and volleyball courts.
Just from the perfect facilities, you can know how difficult this school is.
Private Kitagawa Academy, the best private high school in Japan, was founded in 1870 and is a product of the Meiji Restoration Period.
There are top teaching facilities here and strong teacher reserves. The quality of students is also very high, so the tuition fee is naturally ridiculously expensive.
In three years, the total tuition fee required is as high as 8 million yen.
How exaggerated?
For example, for a general tuition fee for a national high school, the tuition fee for the first year is about 1 million yen, and the next two years is 700,000-800,000 yen. For a general private high school, the tuition fee for the first year is about 1.5 million yen, and the next two years is about 1 million yen.
The expensive tuition fees and the same expensive extracurricular activities are not affordable by ordinary people.
Most of the students studying here can be summarized in a sentence from "Kafka by the Sea": it is almost all children of high-class families or wealthy families. As long as they don't have a big shot, they can go directly to university. They all have neat teeth, clean clothes, and bored words.
Of course, in order to take care of the admission rate and to promote the so-called fairness of society, the school provides some special recruitment quotas, which recruits about 10% of the children of ordinary families with top grades every year, reduces half of their tuition fees, and provides a large number of scholarships.
Under this background, the students of the private Kitagawa Academy are roughly divided into four classes.
1: Like the ones in Sukawa Wei, who are particularly rich and backgrounded.
2: Generally rich and backgrounded.
3: Those with no money or background but top grades.
4: People like Tazaki, who are marginal in big families, have no money, no background and average grades.
Inexplicably, he lived to the bottom of the food chain...
When changing indoor shoes in front of the shoe cabinet, Tazaki Shi was secretly excited.
Those are the past and the future is in progress, and if they are in progress, they must be turning over... What is the grammatical sentence structure for the future?
The sentence structure of the affirmative sentence is: subject + shall/will + be + present participle + others.
Another knowledge point was consolidated. Tazaki Ji was in a good mood. Walking on the elevated corridor leading to the classroom, the bright and gentle sunshine shone on his face in late April, shining brightly.
The classmate wearing the same uniforms was walking around. He was the son of the president of the enterprise; she was the daughter of the MP; the fat man seemed to have received a letter of recommendation from Dongda University; and I just drank the chicken bath water last night.
