'''Mion:''' "...So Kei-chan, you're not stinking rich?" |
|||
<br />'''Keiichi:''' "What is this all of a sudden? Did I come to school in a limo before?" |
|||
<br />'''Mion:''' "How much do you get for a monthly allowance?" |
|||
<br />'''Keiichi:''' "About $10..." |
|||
<br />'''Satoko:''' "My, that's a rather plebeian amount." |
|||
<br />'''Rika:''' "His lunch is made up of normal stuff. He isn't rich." |
|||
What are they talking about!? |
|||
<br />To be asked out of nowhere how much I get and then told that's a plebeian amount! |
|||
'''Rena:''' "Ahahahaha. Sorry, sorry!" |
|||
Rena seemed to pick up on my dubious expression and started giggling. |
|||
'''Mion:''' "Kei-chan... your house, you know... It's pretty big, yeah? So the architecture has people all around Hinamizawa calling it the Maebara Manor, and it sorta stands out." |
|||
M-Maebara Manor~!? |
|||
'''Rena:''' "Since the house is so big, everybody is gossiping, wondering exactly how rich you are." |
|||
I see. Now I get it. |
|||
<br />...Well, the frame of it is huge. I see how it could cause some misunderstandings. |
|||
'''Satoko:''' "From my deduction, I wager they spent too much money on building the house, and that is why they are now broke~!" |
|||
<br />'''Rika:''' "...Being broke, how very, very unfortunate." |
|||
...Rika-chan took pity on me as she patted my head. |
|||
<br />I go from being treated like a millionaire to a beggar... |
|||
'''Keiichi:''' "Yeah, sorry for ruining your imagination, but we aren't millionaires or poor. We're the image of a normal, average household." |
|||
<br />'''Mion:''' "you can't call it normal with that huge house! The entranceway is all grand, and the gate is large enough for a large truck to get through!! That's not normal at all!" |
|||
They do say the bigger your house, the more prosperous you are. |
|||
The reason the house is so big is because Dad's studio is in it, too. |
|||
<br />There are a bunch of different workshops, and lots of his works are hung up in different places. All of them are huge, too. |
|||
<br />For those reasons, the family actually uses only a third of the house for day-to-day living. |
|||
He planned it out so people and cars could come in to see the gallery he opens up in the house someday. |
|||
<br />...By the way, the entranceway Mion is talking about is the one for the studio, and is normally sealed off. |
|||
<br />The entranceway the Maebara family actually uses is a very plain and simple one. |
|||
The interior is much different from how it looks on the outside. |
|||
'''Mion:''' "I'd really like a chance to explore Kei-chan's house... Claiming not to be rich, but having a home like that!! What could be hidden there!?" |
|||
<br />'''Rena:''' "M-Maybe there's something kyute hidden! Hao~!" |
|||
<br />'''Satoko:''' "They probably had no money to purchase furniture, so it's filled with spartan rooms!" |
|||
<br />'''Rika:''' "...If there are carpeted rooms, I would love to try rolling around on the floor." |
|||
<br />'''Satoko''' "Waa~! That'd be so great, so great! I want to roll around, too!" |
|||
...Seems like their imaginations were just piling on... |
|||
<br />Well... Sometime in the near future, it wouldn't be too bad to invite them all to my house. |
|||
<br />...Dad is a sucker for the ladies, so he might even let them look around his studio. |
|||
The cry of the higurashi crescendoed, as the sky towered over everything. |
|||
<br />It was hot but the air was clear. It smelled like the beginning of summer. |
