Chapter 124 – Internet Cafe (Repair)
Masayoshi Kishimoto counted the time and took his MP3 out the door. As he walked on his way to the Miki Bookstore, he couldn’t help but remember the conversation he had with Rie Sakai at the dinner table.
If he thought about it a little bit, it was only natural for Rie Sakai to have such naive thoughts and demands.
She was young, came from a middle-class family, and had never been poor, so naturally she would not truly understand the horrors of poverty, nor would she understand why beautiful women from poor families would do anything to escape their initial destiny and move up the social ladder.
Justice Kishimoto read Vanity Fair by Thackeray, another English novelist who was as famous as Dickens at that time, and realistically understood some of the things that should be on the minds of beautiful women from poor families.
The heroine of the book chases after fame and fortune, and instead of annoying herself, she makes herself quite sympathetic. Love for the poor girl, that is a luxury that can not afford to consume, after all, a long time struggling to get above and below the breadline.
This can afford to consume the love of people, at least must also be middle-class family background. Otherwise, even the best love can not withstand the long time test of wood, rice, oil, salt, soy, vinegar and tea, a little bit is worn out.
That is why there is a familiar saying that love can withstand the test of life and death, but not the test of life.
Masayoshi Kishimoto knows that Japan is a country where monogamy is on the surface, but in reality it is possible to exploit the loopholes in the existing laws, allowing a man to have N women, and still be able to let them legally live under the same roof with him.
He knew that the trick was to register his favorite woman in his family’s registry as an adopted daughter. In this way, the relationship was nominally between the adoptive father and the adoptive daughter, while in fact it was that of husband and wife.
In Japan, family members are recognized by their name in the family register (who says there is no family register in Japan?) and by their blood relationship or husband and wife relationship.
Lovers are not reluctant, but rather show a particularly positive acceptance. In addition to being recognized, there is also a legal guarantee. Adopted daughters also have certain property inheritance rights.
As for whether or not the family would be in a state of turmoil and unrest, that was a different matter. Therefore, Masayoshi Kishimoto would rather choose to keep the little one outside than to get together like that.
When Masayoshi Kishimoto walked to the Miki Bookstore, it was already closed. Natsui Makoto had taken off her Miki Bookstore uniform early and replaced it with her everyday clothes as she stood at the side of the front door waiting for her arrival.
When she saw Masayoshi Kishimoto walking towards her, she took the initiative to walk up to him. The two of them walked to a suitable distance above each other and stopped in unison.
Natsui Makoto had absolutely no intention of complaining about his late arrival. She still left the choice in his hands saying, “Should we go to the internet cafe first, or should we go for a snack first?”
Masayoshi Kishimoto took the idea while handing back the key to her house, “Are you hungry? If you’re hungry, we’ll go eat first and then go to the internet cafe.”
Natsui Makoto smiled and gently shook her head up as she said, “Not hungry. Are you hungry?”
“I’m not hungry either. We’ll just go to the internet cafe first.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with a decisive voice.
Natsui Makoto turned one hundred and eighty degrees to walk alongside him. They didn’t have to go out far before they found an internet cafe nearby.
Masayoshi Kishimoto opened a private room at the front desk that could accommodate two people together. Although he himself didn’t use the internet, a single room for one person would be too small, with space for just one person.
He and Natsui Makoto passed through the aisle one after the other, and found the two-person private room whose number corresponded to that one. They pushed open the door and took off the shoes on their feet before they stepped on it.
There were two computers in here, and Masaru Kishimoto had only turned on one. It only took an hour to get himself online. In fact, he estimated that half an hour was more than enough.
Japanese-style internet cafes were genuinely unique. Not only were several carbonated beverages and cheap coffee free to drink, but there was also a bath room and a laundry room.
Only, bath and laundry need to pay separately. In addition, if the monthly subscription, often live in the Internet caf茅, but also be able to enjoy a discount.
The soundproofing effect of the cubicles in the Internet cafes is not good, and there will be people coming in and out 24 hours a day and night, but it is also a temporary place to stay. Some of the private rooms have not only computers with internet access, but also game consoles such as PS.
In addition, there are also Chinese-style internet cafes in Japan, where there are rows and rows of computers with no compartments. A group of people sitting in the open space, each playing their own games, as if there is an illusion, not in Japan, but in China.
Masayoshi Kishimoto took out the MP3 cardboard box, opened it, took everything out of it, and taught Makoto Natsui how to use it by hand.
Kneeling to sit close to him Natsui Makoto, not between men and women too close to the natural side of the inner embarrassment, but the sweet feeling, after all, is long ago fell into the middle of the love of the woman.
If she and her boyfriend like this together will still have that kind of inner embarrassment, can only show that she does not like him, just in the scene of a fake relationship.
At this time, Mp3 download music copyright and so on, has not carried out a relevant supporting legal perfect, so all can be free to download songs.
Mp3 music files were made by some netizens to be posted online for the purpose of simply sharing their favorite songs.
As time goes by, relevant laws and regulations will be introduced to fill the gap in copyright protection.
Japan is also known for its excellent copyright protection. If you don’t pay for it, there is no fun in surfing the Internet. If you listen to songs, you have to pay for them. If you watch a movie, you have to pay for it. ……
“Got it?” Masayoshi Kishimoto personally put the earplugs on top of Natsui Makoto’s left and right ears respectively, and pressed the play button, saying.
Natsui Makoto joyfully pointed both forefingers to her own earplugs and said with a smile on her face, “There’s really a sound, I can listen to songs.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto was already not surprised. So, he moved his body away towards the side, wanting to watch her operate it herself and said, “What song do you like, place it yourself.”
Natsui Makoto moved her body forward in front of the computer, holding the mouse underneath her right hand, and with one pair of eyes staring at the screen she began to search for her favorite song.
Masayoshi Kishimoto sat cross-legged next to her, drooping his head and supporting it with his own right fist, and looking at her focused little look, he also found it quite cute.
He couldn’t help but feel in his heart that the women who attracted men might not all be beautiful women with outstanding appearances. A woman’s most lethal weapon against men is gentleness and thoughtfulness.
