Mira felt embarrassed for her younger sister and scolded her gently, "Minji, please don't be rude."
Minji pouted and replied, "I just wanted to know if he could get me one..."
Mira was about to speak when their parents chimed in, "Mira, your little sister has a point. If he's really a wealthy young man, he should be able to prove it, right?" Miku stated.
Mira then turned to Shin to gauge his opinion.
Shin simply smiled and said, "It's just a KiShin SKT FamiCom, isn't it? Alright, I'll get you one."
Minji's eyes lit up with excitement as she exclaimed, "Really!? Then please, get me one!" She had always wanted to have one, being interested in new and exciting gadgets.
Upon hearing from Mira that her boyfriend, Shin, was the CEO of the KiShin Company, Minji wanted to try her luck.
Shin retrieved his phone from his pocket, which surprised both Minji and Mira's parents.
Shin dialed a number and made a call. The phone rang for a moment before someone picked up on the other end.
"Hello, Sir. Do you have any tasks for me?" a man's voice inquired.
Shin greeted first and then stated, "I'd like you to deliver a KiShin SKT FamiCom." He also provided the address of Mira's family's residence, "To Osaka, Chuo XXX..."
"Now?" the man asked.
"Yes, right now," Shin replied with a nod.
"Understood. It should arrive by tomorrow," the voice on the other end confirmed.
Shin ended the call with a simple "Thank you."
"It'll arrive tomorrow," Shin informed Minji.
Minji cheered with excitement.
Mira's parents continued to regard Shin with skepticism.
After that, the conversation resumed its awkward tone. Mira's parents seemed to ignore Shin, except for Minji, who continued to chat with him.
Later on, Mira and Shin said their goodbyes. Mira's parents didn't forget to remind Mira to be cautious around Shin.
Mira nodded in agreement, feeling somewhat helpless. With that, she looped her arm through Shin's and leaned close to him as they walked away.
Mira's family watched this display, and Daichi couldn't help but furrow his brow.
"Our child is growing up so quickly, isn't she? Honey..." Miku commented with a smile.
Daichi nodded with a slight frown.
Miku chuckled at his reaction.
"I'm so jealous of my big sister! I want a boyfriend too!" Minji sighed wistfully as she observed Mira and Shin walking together in the distance.
Daichi and Miku redirected their attention to Minji and firmly declared, "No! Focus on your education before entering into a romantic relationship!"
"Ehhh!!!" Minji pouted upon hearing her parents' words.

Meanwhile, Lee Han and Ishigi had completed their discussions with the hired lawyers and engaged in a conversation of their own.
"Mr. Suzuki is interested in purchasing your company for 300 million yen," Lee Han informed Ishigi after going over the details.
Ishigi gulped nervously; after all, that was 300 million yen! He even felt tempted to agree immediately.
After all, the animation studio was an inheritance he had received from his father. So, the land, equipment, and other items he used – he didn't know their true market value. Still, he couldn't help but feel they wouldn't add up to 300 million yen. He had upgraded some equipment himself, spending hundreds of thousands of yen or, at most, a few million yen, but nowhere near hundreds of millions.
"Umm..." Ishigi didn't know how to respond.
Lee Han looked at him seriously, and Ishigi couldn't resist his temptation. "Alright. I agree. 300 million yen it is."
Lee Han smiled upon hearing this and stood up, extending a hand for a handshake, which Ishigi gladly accepted.

Shin, who was on the train with Mira on their way back to Tokyo, received a phone call from Lee Han.
Shin answered it promptly upon seeing that it was Lee Han calling.
"Hello, Mr. Han. What's the news?" Shin inquired as soon as he answered the call.
"Mr. Suzuki, we've acquired the animation company for 300 million yen," Lee Han reported.
"Really? That's great." Shin smiled and felt pleased.
"But, Mr. Suzuki, are you sure you weren't too generous with the offer of 300 million yen for such a small company?" Lee Han asked curiously.
Shin just smiled and replied, "It doesn't matter. Big corporations like Nippon TV, Suzuki, and Tora were interested in acquiring it. That alone suggests it's worth the investment."
Lee Han didn't have much knowledge about anime, so he simply nodded in agreement.
After a brief conversation with Lee Han, Shin ended the call.
He began contemplating which anime from his previous life he should reproduce in this world.
"Pokémon would be a suitable choice..." Shin mused with a smile. However, before he could create a Pokémon anime, he would need to develop a Pokémon game with his programmers.
Since people in this world might not be familiar with the concept of Pokémon, he decided to create an anime to introduce them to the fantasy world of Pokémon.
