Chapter 697: Grandpa Kumamoto’s Secret
Chapter 697: Grandpa Kumamoto’s Secret
Early in the morning, Misae received a call from Kumamoto's grandmother.
"Hey, Mom? What's the matter?" After answering the phone, Meiya asked somewhat puzzled.
"Meiya, your dad...that's the, uh, pumpkin!" Grandma said to Meiiya hurriedly.
"Pumpkin?" Meiya was stunned. What does that mean?
"How do you say pumpkin in English?"
"The word for pumpkin..." Meiya looked at Mingxu.
"Pumpkin." Mingxu said casually.
"Yes, yes! That's the one! He might have been fooled by that pumpkin scam!" Grandma's voice came again.
"Pumpkin scam?" Meiya was stunned for a moment, scratched her head, and thought of the local language, and twitched her mouth: "Oh, do you mean the transfer scam?"
"Ah? Is that what you said?" Grandma asked in surprise.
“It’s the same all over the country.”
“And that kind of guess who you are scam?”
"Guess who I am, scam."
“Also called bullshit scam, right?”
"It's a remittance scam. The more I talk, the more confused I get." After chatting for a while, grandma felt that her world views had collapsed. After telling Meiya some things, she hung up the phone temporarily.
Meiya shook her head and looked at the family around her: "Oh, really, she is so flustered that I don't even know what she is talking about."
"Just like mom."
"As expected of a mother and daughter, right?"
"Hehehe~"
"!" Misae looked at Shin-Giro, staring at them with dangerous eyes.
The two of them suddenly felt a chill on their backs and their mouths twitched.
Guangzhi hurriedly said, "So, what he just said on the phone, Dad came here without telling her?"
"It seems so?" Meiya nodded.
Mingxu scratched his head: "Maybe he's here to meet up with old friends? Friends from school days or something like that."
"That's what I said, but your grandma said she wouldn't have hidden it from her." Meiya spread her hands helplessly.
"That may not be a scam." Guangzhi asked after a moment of surprise.
"I thought so too, but I'm still worried."
"So what do you want us to do?"
"doing what?"
"Are you going to ask us to follow grandpa?" Mingxu looked at Meiya in confusion and asked.
Meiya clapped her hands and said, "That's right! Aren't you going to the city today? Let's go find my dad first. Can you help me check it out?"
"Ah?" Several people were stunned when they heard this and looked at Mei Ya helplessly.
Meiya made the decision: "I will wait for my mother to contact me at home and pass the information to you."
After saying that, without waiting for them to say anything more, he pushed the father and his two sons out.
The three of them looked at each other and shook their heads. There was nothing they could do but to set off.
On the tram, they were getting closer and closer to the airport and could already see planes taking off and landing.
"Wow! Planes! Planes!" Shin-chan was a little excited as he leaned against the window and watched the planes taking off and landing.
Soon, they got off the tram and arrived at the airport. Looking at the people coming and going inside, Guangzhi began to complain a little.
"Why do you have to come here? Even if it's really a Guess Who scam... Even if I tell him, he will definitely say: Nonsense, how could I be deceived by that kind of person? This is bound to be the result..."
"Dad, we're late." Mingxu pointed at the information on the big screen.
Guangzhi was stunned, looked at the screen and shouted: "Oh no, the plane from Kumamoto has already arrived."
"Hey, where is grandpa?" Xiao Xin asked curiously while looking around.
Mingxu spread his hands and said, "Judging from the time, it is very likely that he has already left here."
"Ding ding ding~" Guangzhi's cell phone rang, and several people looked at Guangzhi at the same time.
Guangzhi was stunned and took out his phone: "Oh, it's from Meiya." He read the message on it: "Mom has sent a photo, what is this? What kind of weird photo is this?"
Looking at the blurry photo, Guangzhi called back.
"I'm sorry, my mom isn't very good at using mobile phones, and the photos don't seem to be taken very well. I think they should be sent to me soon." Meiya said helplessly. After all, it is really difficult for the elderly to accept new things.
"Hey, hurry up." Guangzhi complained and hung up the phone.
"I don't know how long this will last, right? Oh, really."
"What did mom say?" Mingxu looked at Guangzhi and asked.
"She said some information would have to wait."
"There's no other way. We can only wait." Mingxu spread his hands.
"Where's Shin-chan?"
"Here." Mingxu pointed casually. As expected, the boy was chatting up the older sister.
"Big sisters, do you like beef or chicken?"
"Aren't you arresting him?"
"I'm tired, let him be proud for a while." Mingxu glanced at Xiaoxin and said to Guangzhi.
"Ding ding ding~" the phone rang again.
"Ah? Are you here? Let me see, there are some words written on the back of the flyer."
"Hey, it's so blurry, I can't see clearly, Pingchuan Hotel, right?"
"There are signs of being crossed out, it looks like this may not be it." Mingxu said as he carefully identified it.
"Ah!" Guangzhi was suddenly stunned, and hurriedly grabbed Mingxu in front of him, and pulled Xiaoxin who was coming over: "Look over there."
"Grandpa!" Xiao Xin was startled and wanted to run over. Ming Xu hurriedly grabbed Xiao Xin.
Guangzhi looked at Xiaoxin and whispered, "Listen carefully, this is a confidential investigation."
"I got it, Chief Stinky Feet!" Shin-chan nodded and stood at attention.
"Stinky feet are unnecessary."
Mingxu pointed at Fangzhi who was not far away and said, "Grandpa is over there!"
"Okay." The three of them followed quietly, hiding behind obstacles from time to time.
Looking at Fangzhi holding the note in his hand as if looking for an address, Xiaoxin asked curiously: "Grandpa, are you going to meet the scammer?"
Guangzhi shook his head: "I don't know yet. Anyway, we will catch the driver as soon as he shows up."
"The driver? Who's that?"
"That's not a person's name. It means the person sent by the fraud group to take the money."
"Oh."
"Hey, hey, hey, stop chatting." Mingxu rolled his eyes at them.
"Well, that's bad! Where did he go?" Suddenly Guangzhi looked back to his original position and found that Fangzhi was gone, and asked anxiously.
Xiao Xin jumped out from the side and said, "Too careless! Chief Sheriff of Stinky Feet."
"You're the one who asked me to ask random questions and that's why I ended up like this!"
"It's too childish to just blame others."
"Okay, okay, let's find someone quickly." Mingxu said helplessly as he looked at the two childish people.
"Ding ding ding~" the phone rang again.
Guangzhi was stunned: "Well, is it Meiya again?"
When I opened it, I found it was a message from the child's grandmother: "Hey? Mom! Let me see, Mei Ya asked me to send the photo directly to you... What? Mei Ya put all the responsibility on me, what is this?"
"It seems like mom doesn't want to care at all." Mingxu spread his hands.
"Let me see."
"Another blurry photo. Is this Jin? Don't you have any idea what this means?"
"Dad." Mingxu pulled Guangzhi.
"Ok?"
"That's it!" Mingxu said, looking at the Golden Lion Coffee opposite.
"Golden Lion Coffee, so that's it. It's here." Guangzhi also reacted and walked in with the two little ones.
The waiter entertained them warmly.
"This way, you two, please."
"Have you seen your grandpa?"
"No?"
"That's weird."
After taking them to their seats, the waiter politely said, "Please call me when you want to order."
"Okay." Mingxu nodded and replied. As for the two of them, forget it. One looked at the menu and the other looked around, with no intention of replying at all.
Guangzhi was still a little puzzled: "How strange, isn't it here?"
"Whom?!" Mingxu pulled Guangzhi: "Dad, watch the door."
"Ah? Here he comes, right behind this seat..." Seeing Yoshiharu walking past them and sitting behind them, the three of them suddenly became a little nervous.
Xiao Xin suddenly screamed: "Wow~ Dad!"
Mingxu, who was sitting next to him, covered Xiaoxin's mouth directly: "Speak softly, don't let grandpa find out."
Xiaoxin nodded repeatedly, then looked at Guangzhi and asked, "Can I order anything?"
"Yes, both are fine." Guangzhi nodded in agreement before he could react.
The waiter came over, looked at them and asked with a smile, "Would you like to order?"
"This one!" Xiao Xin pointed at one on the menu and said after getting the accurate information.
"Seasonal fruit sundae, huh?" The waiter nodded and wrote it down.
"I'll have a glass of juice." Mingxu said casually.
"Yes, and coffee." Guangzhi also nodded.
"Okay, let me repeat, your order is a seasonal fruit parfait sundae, juice, and a cup of coffee, is that all?"
"Yes." Guangzhi nodded.
After confirming again and again, the waiter looked at them and nodded: "Okay, no problem, please wait a moment." Then he went downstairs to prepare.
Guangzhi suddenly became curious, looked at the names on the menu, and then widened his eyes: "Seasonal Fruit Parfait Sundae... Three thousand eight hundred! You little brat."
"Dad, keep your voice down, someone is coming." Mingxu pointed at an old lady who was walking towards them.
"Oh." The three of them lowered their heads again.
When Fangzhi saw the old lady, he immediately said enthusiastically: "Hello. Please come and sit over here."
"Ok."
"Yes, grandpa. Is that grandma the driver?" Xiao Xin asked curiously after hearing the noise behind him.
Guangzhi shook his head: "It doesn't look like it."
"Why does it feel like this isn't a scam?" Mingxu scratched his head. Why does this scene feel like someone is trying to catch someone cheating?
The sound of two people talking came from behind: "It's been a long time."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Xiaoshan, for coming all the way here."
"It seems like they are acquaintances." Mingxu and Guangzhi looked at each other and nodded.
"I came here without telling my wife."
"Really? It's okay, please don't worry."
Hearing this, the two were immediately confused. What was going on? Were they here to catch their grandfather having an affair? ? ?
"No, it won't, right?"
"We are always ready."
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Woman: "How should I tell the madam?"
"Well, of course I have to hide it from her, but my determination will never waver." Yoshiharu said seriously.
“Is this true? Xiaoxu, Xiaoxin, let’s go home.” Guangzhi was completely at a loss when he heard this and couldn’t do anything about it. . .
"But I haven't had the sundae yet." Shin-chan looked at Hiroshi in confusion.
"Forget it, remember to tell mom that we didn't see grandpa today, okay!" Guangzhi looked at the two of them seriously and said, he really didn't want to care about this matter anymore, and it was not easy for him to care about it.
The waiter brought the drinks they ordered at the right time: "Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
"Ah~ Dad..."
"Oh, okay, let's go home right after eating."
"Oh, this is a headache. My father-in-law is having an affair. How should I tell Mei-ya?"
"Dad, maybe the situation is not what we thought." Mingxu listened for a while and looked at Guangzhi.
"Ah?" Guangzhi was stunned. Before he could understand what it meant, he saw Xiaoxin's amazing move.
"Ah~ So delicious~" Then Bu Xiaoxin sneezed and the grapes in his mouth sprayed out: "Ah? My muscat grapes!"
Mingxu and Guangzhi looked at Xiaoxin lying in front of Fangzhi's desk in silence, shook their heads, and walked over.
"Ah? Why are you here, Shin-chan?"
"Hi, Grandpa."
"Grandpa..."
"dad.."
"And there's Xiaoxu and Guangzhi." Looking at their expressions and then looking at the person opposite him, Yoshiji finally understood.
After explaining the reason to them, the three of them suddenly understood.
"Ah, so that's what happened. It's about my sister-in-law's blind date."
"Yeah, Gao Ya is really wasting her time!"
"Who told you to hide it from her?"
"If I tell her, Shinya will know immediately. If she knows, she will definitely say that I would never go on a blind date. That's why I kept it from her. I was worried that I might meet someone I know in Kumamoto, so I came here on purpose." Yoshiharu said resolutely.
"Let me introduce myself. I'm from the Kumamoto Prefecture Professional Matchmaker Association." The woman looked at the three people and smiled.
“So he’s not a driver.”
"what?"
Covering Shin-chan's mouth, the three of them quickly said goodbye to Yoshiharu. However, Yoshiharu refused to visit their home. After saying goodbye to them, he went straight to the plane.
After returning home, the three of them told Meiya about this incident, and Meiya also complained: "Dad is such a jerk. He actually went home directly without coming to our house. We were fooled around by him the whole day."
"The rare holiday is ruined." Guangzhi sighed.
"I feel like I had a fulfilling life. I went out for a sundae worth 3,800 yuan." Shin-chan looked very satisfied.
"Of course, Dad didn't bring enough money, so I paid for it." Mingxu said helplessly.
Meiya looked puzzled: "Huh?"
