Chapter 368: She Hasn’t Grown Up
Located on a secluded street in Tokyo’s Edogawa district, there is a row of small buildings that seem to have been constructed in the 70s or 80s of the last century. Surrounding the exterior is substantial greenery, not only are there trees, but the high walls are also overgrown with ivy.
Each household is detached with its own courtyard, and the area is remarkably quiet, as there are barriers on both sides of the street preventing the passage of vehicles.
This is where Yoko Ono’s parents lived in the past, and it is an incredibly luxurious and upscale area.
According to Yoko Ono, her mother was killed by her father many years ago, but the reason was unknown to her – only that her father had murdered her mother and afterwards, he had been wandering abroad, leaving the house uninhabited ever since.
Besides the occasional visit from her, no one else came here.
Yusuf Zuck and Yoko Ono entered the yard, then the house.
The two-story building, without a garage, featured typical Japanese residential design – there were no beds in the house; instead, an elevated section of the floor served as a bed, also known as tatami mats. The doors were not hinged, but sliding. The TV was an old model from the eighties or nineties, and everything was quite antiquated.
However, as part of a high-class community, the house was equipped with all necessary living facilities, such as 24-hour hot water, and so on.
"I’m going to take a bath, just sit here and don’t move," said Yusuf Zuck, after a brief tour of the house, before plunging into the bathroom, the smell of blood on him being too overpowering.
Yoko Ono sat on the tatami, her eyes lifeless; she didn’t know what her fate would be from now on.
