Chapter 427 Only at Home with Mrs. Yukino

Springfield Bookstore prepares to celebrate 2 million sales.

After the official expressed condolences and invited Oda Shingo, Saburo Mikami came over again carrying some small gifts.

Oda Shingo felt a little baffled.

Saburo's compliment to Oda Shingo was almost disgusting.

"Xingo, you must be the most eye-catching cartoonist at this ceremony!"

“It’s all because of you that Springfield Bookstore is what it is today.”

"The president and I, together with many of our colleagues, are eager to enshrine you and burn incense sticks."

In fact, many people at Springfield Bookstore do worship Oda Shingo.

Oda Shingo looked at him with a somewhat depressed expression.

This guy keeps saying this to his face, what on earth is he going to do?

After praising Oda Shingo for a long time, Mikami Saburo suddenly said: "Then when is the right time for me to take my sister home?"

Oda Shingo: "..."

Is this why you guys have been praising me for so long?

"Brother!" Although Yuko Mikami was still working at the work table, she was listening nearby. When she heard this, she immediately jumped up to stop her.

"Hahaha, long talk." Mikami Saburo was such a smart man. He immediately knew that his sister's elbow had turned out to the edge and there was no hope of saving it.

Forget it, Oda Shingo is also a trustworthy guy, and I already have Takano Ran, so I better try not to worry about my sister. This was all he could do to comfort himself.

But I feel very sad in my heart. I have watched her grow up, so why doesn’t she kiss him now?

Oda Shingo is a girl-stealing demon! Called Sister Devil!

Hmm, when he thought of this, Mikami Saburo felt that his guess was quite correct. Is this how male succubi come about?

Before leaving, he whispered to Oda Shingo: "When will I take you to meet my parents?"

"???" Oda Shingo subconsciously took a step back, but quickly figured out that he had misunderstood.

The moment he heard this, he thought Mikami Saburo was a little crooked. But he soon realized that he was trying to find out for his sister.

"If you want to know the progress of your sister and I, just ask directly." Oda Shingo smiled.

Saburo Mikami rolled his eyes: "Everyone knows you won't answer, right?"

"Ask Guiwen."

"Okay, how are you and my sister progressing?"

"you guess."

"..."

Oda Shingo smiled and said: "You ask, it's up to you to ask, and it's up to me to answer."

"You little girl!" Saburo Mikami gritted his teeth.

Oda Shingo retorted: "You are the sister devil, the sister-control devil."

"Celebrating 2 million sales is very important, and you are also a top priority. Come as soon as possible." Saburo Mikami knocked on his shoulder before saying goodbye and leaving.

What Oda Shingo promised was: "I will definitely arrive on time."

Springfield Bookstore's 2 million sales celebration is a rare ceremony for businesses to prosper in recent years.

Since Japan's economic decline began in the 1990s, society as a whole has not slowed down.

Especially in the comics industry, paper media has been severely impacted by online media. Most companies take survival as a passing standard, and those with a 3% upward trend in annual performance are called market-leading companies.

However, Springfield Bookstore's performance improved significantly in the year when it acquired Oda Shingo.

Although the annual profit has not been released, the market sales have increased from one million to two million. This is definitely an unprecedented achievement in the comic industry.

So Springfield Bookstore really attaches great importance to this 2 million sales celebration, and it is also a celebration banquet to thank Oda Shingo.

Oda Shingo also understands this truth, so he must go.

He returned to the room and noticed several girls looking at him.

The conversation between the two people just now was getting louder, and it was not impossible for the female assistant and others to hear them.

Yuko Mikami's face was red. After Saburo Mikami left, she came over in a panic and explained: "Teacher Oda, my brother has no other intentions. Maybe he wants you to recognize my family."

"Hmm, yes, I guess so." Oda Shingo waved his hand.

Namikaze Yukaku and Toudou Kojo both looked at Oda Shingo with squinting eyes.

"The day after tomorrow is Springfield Daqing, we have to make more progress." Oda Shingo called on the female assistants to work hard.

"Boss, are you scheming to squeeze red blood cells?" Todo Xiangcheng protested.

Oda Shingo was annoyed: "Where did you learn it?"

"Your comics."

Oda Shingo corrected: "Is it a comment on my manga?"

"The root is still your comics."

Oda Shingo was speechless.

My cartoons are a metaphor for black-hearted capitalists, so why did I enlighten my female assistant?

"I want to take half a day off tomorrow! Buy some..." Todo Kouchi was about to say, but when he looked at Namikaze Yukaku and Mikami Yuko, he shut up.

"What to do?"

"Anyway, I'm taking half a day off."

"...ok! Don't be too crazy."

"I would go crazy if I look at you every day!" Todo Xiangcheng pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.

"Thank you for the compliment." Oda Shingo didn't take it seriously.

Namikaze Yukaku suddenly said: "I also want to ask for leave."

Yuko Mikami: "And me."

Oda Shingo: "???"

The next day, the three girls were not there early in the morning.

Oda Shingo was a little confused.

Only Mrs. Yukino came on time, and she was a little surprised: "Aren't they here?"

But when Mrs. Yukino came, it was already afternoon as usual.

"I've asked for leave." Oda Shingo shrugged his shoulders.

"Oh." Mrs. Yukino changed her slippers and sat on the sofa.

In the huge studio, there were only Oda Shingo and Mrs. Yukino.

For some reason, Oda Shingo felt his heartbeat was a little faster while painting.

He glanced at Mrs. Yukino and was surprised to find that she had just turned away.

Did Mrs. Yukino have the same idea as me? Oda Shingo was surprised.

No, no, Mrs. Yukino would not be such a hooligan. Oda Shingo quickly corrected his thoughts.

Time passed quietly, and only the hands of the quartz clock on the wall were ticking.

Damn, I should have bought a completely silent clock earlier! It's as if it was deliberately making people uneasy.

Oda Shingo, who usually didn't notice the sound of the quartz clock at all, began to have some random thoughts at this time.

Oh, by the way, the clock was attached to Mrs. Yukino's house. Is there any meaning? Could it be that Mrs. Yukino's heart is also restless like this quartz clock?

As soon as Oda Shingo thought of this, he shook his head violently.

What are you thinking about? Conan would not make such an irrelevant inference, right?

Taking two deep breaths, Oda Shingo tried to calm his mind.

At this time, Mrs. Yukino stood up: "I'll go buy clothes too."

"Ah? What clothes?" Oda Shingo was stunned.

"Don't you think that they all asked for leave to go out and buy clothes to wear at the celebration tomorrow?" Mrs. Yukino asked back.

Oda Shingo slapped his forehead and understood.

Mrs. Yukino walked to the door and was about to go out.

"So Mrs. Yukino, will you also dress up tomorrow?" Oda Shingo asked quickly.

"... No, I don't like places that are too lively." Mrs. Yukino opened the door and was about to leave, but when she turned back, she saw Oda Shingo's disappointment that was difficult to hide.

She paused as she was walking out, and smiled: "You want to see me wearing clothes other than kimono?"

Oda Shingo was stunned, and quickly responded: "Ah, although it is very rude to say this, it is undeniable... yes."

Mrs. Yukino's smile was charming: "If there is a chance, I can wear it for you to see..."

After that, she opened the door and left, leaving Oda Shingo still in a daze.
