Freeze, Don't Move!

After a while, Seiji said goodbye.

Before he left, Shouzou gave him a gift. It was a large box of flower tea.

"My wife and I personally cultivated this flower tea. I hope that it's to your tastes."

"Thank you, I'll sample it with care." Seiji politely accepted the gift.

"Once again," Shouzou Amami said seriously, "thank you for helping out my grandson, and please take good care of him in the future as well." 

Seiji understood Shouzou's feelings when he saw his expression. "I will," he promised.

After leaving Shouzou's residence, Seiji began walking back to his apartment. He inwardly reflected on what had transpired.

Seiji decided to take out his cell phone and make a call.

The call connected quickly.

"Good evening, Senpai!" Hoshi's voice greeted.

"Good evening, junior," Seiji returned. "I just left your grandfather's home. You'll never guess what just happened."
