Although Chen Yu had mentioned that the check-up at Tokyo University Medical School Hospital would be expensive, and an appointment needed to be made in advance, the man eventually chose to take his mother there for a check-up.
Through conversation with the man, Chen Yu learned that his name was Uncle, and he was a sensei at a karate dojo nearby, mainly teaching children karate. He had a very amiable personality.
However, Uncle's mother was a notorious drunkard in the area, often spending nights drinking alone from one establishment to the next, each time having to be carried home by Uncle in a drunken stupor.
With such a mother, it's difficult to say whether Uncle was unlucky or blessed, but one thing was certain: although Uncle often quarreled with his mother, he was very filial and, no matter how much he complained, he would always carry her home whenever needed.
