Tokyo Girlfriend Guide

Chapter 246 His Heroine

"You are wasting your talent." Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu said this without hesitation.

If she wanted to be more convincing, she could add something like, "Those who expect you to compete with you will be disappointed."However, she is Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu, who is always loyal to herself and does not care about the eyes of outsiders.

"How to use my talents has nothing to do with you. Could it be that, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, are you caring about me?"

Ying Lili said in disbelief that even though she has lived together for so long, she still uses her full name to call Xia Zhiqiu, which seems to be out of some kind of persistence.Of course, the latter is called a childish game.

"I'm just regretting it." The girl with black hair and red eyes didn't change the subject, and directly expressed her true thoughts.

"..."

The roasted meat that Eriri just stuffed into her mouth fell unconsciously, and before she had time to wipe her mouth, she blinked vigorously, looked at Kasumigaoka, and then at Hojo Kyosuke, after three or four seconds, it was still difficult to execute .

What did I just hear?Eiriri, who secretly regards Kasumigaoka as her strongest enemy, couldn't believe that she could hear praise from her.Could it be that the great blonde princess has finally defeated the evil witch?
"Hmph~~ That kind of competition is just a piece of cake for me. It is far less interesting than making animation. I will bring my talent to the field of animation."

Baring his little tiger teeth, out of a certain idea, this idiot didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue, but comforted the opponent in his own way.

Hey--

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu sighed, thinking that this person was hopeless.Turning to look at Hojo Kyosuke, the latter gave her a reassuring look.Very well, she knew that although she usually looked like a lazy person like Eriri, Hojo Kyosuke knew the value of talent.

The opponent's uninterrupted kendo practice is the best proof. Although he said he didn't want to participate in the club competition, he never slackened for a moment in private.

"If that's the case, then I will also cancel all club activities and concentrate on making animations."

Hojo Kyosuke said with a smile as he watched Eirari who suddenly started to feel complacent.Although a bit cunning, he understood that ordinary persuasion was useless to Ying Lili.

If she seriously analyzes the benefits of participating in the competition and tells the pros and cons, then she can only say arrogantly, "Don't be too arrogant about chores, I will decide this kind of thing myself."Then she will only put things related to herself at the end of the sequence, and give priority to those things she thinks are "more important".

"How can it be!" Ying Lili immediately vetoed it.

I'm still waiting to go to the arena to help you cheer!As the male protagonist of my cartoon, how can high school life be so boring, and he is not an inspirational male protagonist, who has to work to earn money to support himself every day.If I'm short of money, I still have a lot of pocket money, even if it's all used for animation funds!

"I don't want the heroine of my cartoon to be a person who spends all day drawing in front of the workbench. Such a heroine can really become the envy of girls all over the world. After watching it, she will want to fall in love the heroine?"

Said calmly, Hojo Kyosuke looked at Eriri with a smile.

"Ah! I'm the supervisor, that's something I should consider, don't be too self-righteous about chores!"

After dropping these words, the girl immediately buried her face in the plate, and stuffed the barbecue into her mouth vigorously.

Two patches of blush quietly floated on the delicate little face, that blush was better than any dialogue, and the other two looked at each other, knowing that the matter had been resolved.

"If you need help later, just tell me directly. There are not many things in my school. There are professionals in charge of the carbonic acid studio, and everything will go smoothly."

After finishing speaking, someone returned to work and started grilling meat instead of Nitro.

Ying Lili raised her small face and looked at the figure in front of the grill, with a sweeter smile on her face.What a fool, he can't even tell what is important, like a child who hasn't grown up.

Talking about the school, talking about the studio, but not mentioning the most important aspect of the novel now, I really think I am a fool.The Motoya Grand Prize is voted by the clerks of bookstores across the country, and there is not much room for manipulation, but the Neon Mystery Writers Association Award and the Naoki Award have many ways to do it.

According to the information obtained by his father, the situation is very unfavorable for Kyosuke in the selection of the Neon Mystery Writers Association Award.Although it is generally believed in the society that "The Devotion of Suspect X" is a work of the Benge School, there is no doubt that he also set his sights on social issues.

What opens the novel is the injustice suffered by Ishigami, the case is caused by the women's problems in Yasuko's mother and daughter, and then the homeless man.People who read novels only think it looks good, and they don't think about the faction of the novel.However, in the Mystery Writers Association, which is full of hills, even each selection committee will allocate quotas according to each faction.

There are 16 people in the pre-selection and the final election, the faction of the original style, the style of change, the socialism... Everyone has selfishness and hopes that the faction he likes can be elected. Is it really out of inner belief, or is it a hope to gain benefits? ,unknown.

In short, this novel by Kyosuke Hojo was strongly supported by Go Aisaka, a representative of the Benge faction, and he also tried his best to persuade his close friends to choose this book together.But so far, no one has let go. The two socialists, Toyoya Kurokawa and Hiroki Naganuma, also supported another purely socialist novel.

Mentioning this Ying Lili made me angry, and those two bastards actually said, "If everyone uses the concept of socialism to modify Bengepai like this in the future, then socialism will slowly perish."

It's really unreasonable. For novels, as long as they look good, it's fine.Even if it can't be read easily like a light novel, wouldn't it be good if it can make people think deeply? !Isn’t that the case with Kyousuke’s book? Didn’t the newspaper say last month that the number of homeless people in Tokyo has decreased a lot this year?

This has triggered a social phenomenon, isn't it considered a socialist?

But these two were not the ones who made the girl the most angry, the other two were.The two guys who can't even remember their names seem to have looked down upon Kyosuke's status as a manga artist and light novel writer in a private gathering, and they also said that they polluted the mystery novel world.

How can there be such a person in the world, I really want to take that woman Xiazhiqiu Shiyu to scold them severely.I sneered and put pressure on the side.

Of course, this is all a private statement. When discussing it, these people will use some reasons such as lack of skill, weak story in the second half, insufficient motivation, and illogical actions of the characters.

It's impossible for that idiot Kyosuke not to know about this kind of thing.From her father and Kazuo Kitamura, the legislator of the awards committee who went to play golf last time, she learned that the relationship between Jingsuke, Aisaka Tsuyoshi and the president of the association is very good. If there is any news, the two will definitely be the first Notify him immediately.

However, this guy didn't say anything.At a time like this, you should mobilize all your relationships and get active, are you being shy?
Ying Lili has urged her father to help more than once, but the social circles really don't overlap much, and she is powerless.

Just like the award she originally wanted to give up, the Neon Mystery Writers Association Award is also the best chance for a newcomer to become famous.Although domestically it is not as prestigious as the Edogawa Rampo Award, internationally, as long as the award-winning works are translated and published, various adaptations will follow.

Ah, how annoying this guy, can't you have a sense of urgency!The final selection will be on April 27th. Hurry up and exchange the money in your bank card for a gift and send it to your door. We are still having a leisurely barbecue here.What a hopeless idiot.

Wait, why do I have to worry about his affairs like a nosy old woman.

"Yinglili, do you want more grilled chicken wings?"

"Two!"

Although, if he can sit here every day and eat the things he made with his own hands, it seems that he will be very happy even if he never paints again.Of course, the premise is that there are only him and himself, and at most Momotaro.

Hmm...it seems a bit too deserted, so the noisy Sakura over there should also stay.Nitro...can't bear to drive her out and continue to be a model.Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, locked in the tool room desperately writing scripts...

Cranky, the leisurely day is over.

周日
After accompanying Eriri to register, Hojo Kyosuke came to Yanting.Just like Miki Okudera said at home before, Hojo Kyosuke seldom invited those friends he met in the society to dinner at home.

And the second floor, which was originally intended to be operated as a coffee shop, has completely become a place for the two to entertain friends.

"Ah, it's really delicious. Hojo, you are so enviable." Aisaka just took a sip of tea and said with a sigh.

"Aisaka, that's too frivolous." Kinno Kenzo said.

"You guys are not qualified to talk about me. I heard that you have been giving lectures at Neon Women's University recently. Don't think I don't know what your plans are." Gang Aisaka was not polite.

"Cough, cough, cough."

After coughing repeatedly, Kenzo Konno quickly picked up his teacup to cover it up: "Don't say such stupid things, you guy, that's the daily task of the association, lazy people like you can't understand how much I have done to promote mystery novels effort."

Feng Saka didn't even look at him, but raised his glass to Hojo Kyosuke: "But this is inevitable, Hojo-kun is indeed enviable, the little lady who just left will be an incredible beauty in the future."

Yes, at the strong request of Ying Lili, Hojo Kyosuke also brought her here for dinner.The two women seem to be getting along very happily. Although they are both sisters, Miki Okudera and Kasumigaoka are obviously of completely different types.The intellectually mature Miki seems to have frustrated Yinglili, and finally asked the other party to send her more messages when she returned home.

It's really hard to understand this guy's brain circuit.

"Speaking of this, Yinglili is going to participate in the Tokyo Youth Art Exhibition. If you have friends who happen to be judges, please help."

Hojo Kyosuke automatically ignored what he said earlier. Can anyone else say that Eriri is a beautiful woman? He is the one who knows it best.Whether it's the attitude of the eldest lady to the outside world, or the image of the abandoned house at home, they are all cute.

"Arrogance, arrogance, I haven't settled my own affairs, so I still have the time to think about other people?" Kinno Kenzo joked, leaning on the back of his chair.

Although he is the chairman of the association, it is completely fine to come to this kind of gathering, not to mention that he is not in the selection committee at all, even if he is, this kind of thing is normal.It is said that it is to gain a deep understanding of the connotation of the work, so that it is convenient for oneself to make judgments.

This is a normal game rule, no one dares to jump out and make irresponsible remarks.

"Yeah, Hojo, you don't seem to care about it at all." Aisaka Gang said, he was lobbying for him there, this guy is enjoying his youth in school, it's really annoying.

"Hey, there's no such thing. I'm so nervous. But I don't know the other judges, and I can't find a way to participate in the event, so I can only pin all my hopes on Senior Aisaka. Replace wine with tea ,Thanks again."

Hojo Kyosuke said with a hippie smile that he is very used to getting along with these people as a junior, and sometimes being young is also an advantage.Just like now, although they are all friends, the two still take care of him as a promising junior.

"Don't say these nice words, the judges in this industry are people who don't quite deal with me. I don't know why they chose me as a judge. Isn't it good to let those guys play by themselves? Let us do it next time .”

Aisaka said angrily, and then looked at Kenzo Konno, the head of the association, who also had a playful smile on his face. It is difficult for men to be serious when they get together.

"Balance, balance, there must be someone like you in every session, and there will be suspense in the selection. Otherwise, they will recommend one person to win the award in order, and you will recommend one person to win the award. Wouldn't it be more convenient?"

"Yeah, isn't that great, I can even write reviews for them."

"No no no, that won't work, the association will mess up."

"Electing you as the president is really the most correct decision everyone made, Konno-san~~" Aisaka said teasingly.

"It's too late, I don't have much salary, and I can't let everyone come to promote my new book, and I have to be quarreled with by you every day. This position has no benefits other than working."

"Hojo, if you want, you can ask President Konno to help you make an appointment with the two judges from the social faction. They are currently the most likely to get votes. As for the other two, I don't know if they have such prejudices." Why did the association let them be judges."

Aisaka just said today's business, and then looked at Kenzo Konno again.It seems that the relationship between the two is really good, and such things that would be criticized by words and pens can also be said wantonly.

"Hey, why do you have the expression that the judges are all selected by me. If I have such great power, the first thing I will do is not to award you." Konno Kenzo waved his arms and muttered dissatisfied.

"Interview..."

Hojo Kyosuke pondered slightly, he was a little impatient to do these things after being reborn.Although he doesn't care about the money benefits that will be brought later, the real social status improvement brought about by the awards makes him very envious.

After thinking about it, he said, "If I write a novel about socialism now, can I make them change their opinion of me?"

"..."

As soon as this remark came out, Aisaka Gang and Konno Kensan looked at each other in blank dismay.After two seconds, the former asked:

"Leaving aside the feasibility of this matter, Hojo, do you know the date of the final selection?"

"I know, it's the 27th of this month."

"Then you already have a book written?"

"No, there are some words that have not been published earlier."

"Hiss—as expected of Hojo-san, the creativity and energy of young people are really enviable to me."

Kenzo Konno clapped his hands, and then said:

"But this society doesn't work that way. Even if it's true, as you said, you managed to write an excellent social mystery novel, it may only be considered as a provocation by the other party, and you may lose your integrity Send support here."

"Hey, don't make me sound like a fanatic, I don't care about sects."

Feng Bangang said that although his past novels were all works of the original style school, and he was also branded as the original style school in the association, but he was able to write those works only because he was only good at that. He was a science student when he was studying. There is an extraordinary love of design tricks.

Hojo Kyosuke nodded knowingly. What he said just now was like slapping the two judges in the face.While beating, he also scolded, "What kind of shit socialism, I can write a work that beats you ten times in ten days."

"Things are not as complicated as you think. In fact, in this round of selection, among the works nominated for the final selection, there is no social novel that can surpass yours. Your works are the shadow of socialism from beginning to end. You just need to express your approval for the Socialists after meeting, and talk about what they like to hear the most—”

When Kenzo Konno said this, Gosaka Aisaka also spoke, and the two said together:
"The reason why society can continue to progress is because of our continuous observation and criticism of unreasonable social phenomena."

"Without us, Neon would have been finished."

"At the end of the day, paying attention to the modus operandi and solving crimes all day long will only increase the number of copycats."

……

The two talked to each other, joking about the socialist novelist, and the air was filled with a happy atmosphere for a while.

Downstairs, Miki Okudera, who was preparing snacks, raised her head and looked in the direction of the stairs on the second floor, with a bright smile on her face.

Although she didn't live in Ruyi Liao, and even though Jingsuke spent less time with her after going to school, she could still feel Jingsuke's concern for her.Among other things, I should be the girl who knows the most Kyosuke friends among all the people.

For example, Ying Lili, who came here today, can see that she doesn't know the two people from the Writers Association at all, as well as people from other publishing houses and animation companies. Come to yourself.

Rather, in a sense, I am the most intimate woman recognized by Kyosuke in society.

Hearing the heated conversation upstairs, she slowed down a little, not wanting to disturb them at this time.

Hojo Kyosuke was also amused by the two, and took the opportunity to learn.Feng Saka said just now that he was not a fanatical believer of the Benge sect, but now he can't stop talking about his opponent's swear words.

After a long time, the laughter stopped slightly.

"In short, that's what happened. Although I have only one vote now, the two socialist votes can be corrected as long as they work hard. Three votes are enough to win."

"That's right, if you agree, I will try my best to hold a banquet next week, invite them over, and create opportunities for you." Kenzo Konno said.

Although everyone understands the rules of the game, it is still necessary to pay attention to face.

"In this case, I'm not polite, thank you Konno-san for your great help."

Kyosuke Hojo raised his teacup, he really didn't expect that Kenzo Konno could help him do this, and he almost sent the trophy directly to his home.Although I didn't say that I could speak for myself with the other party, but I entertained myself and the two judges together, and the other party can already get a lot of information from this.

"Ah~" Konno Kenzo waved his hand casually:

"Just like Tiandu Saburo said, people who practice kendo, when they see someone who is stronger than themselves, they will first be unable to resist the challenge, and then they will be involuntarily attracted. I look forward to Hojo-kun, and you will officially obtain the Beichen One Sword Style The day of Xu Jiechuan will come sooner, and when the time comes, accept me as a disciple, so that I can also experience the profound meaning of the sect."

The first part of this passage was very serious, and Hojo Kyosuke couldn't help but wonder which sword master this Tiandu Saburo is, and then he joked again later.

But soon his super brain recalled the origin of Tiandu Saburo, um, it was a character in the other party's novel.Kenzo Konno is really narcissistic and cute.

"It's okay to accept you as an apprentice. My main concern is whether I will be forcibly elected as the head of the family if I really get the exemption." Kyosuke Hojo looked distressed.

"Hahahaha, you guy, you are worthy of the name of a genius just because of your arrogance. I accompanied Naito-senpai in the dojo and praised you vigorously. Many people are waiting to see your strength."

"..."

To be honest, I have already played enough sandbags in the dojo, so let's stop looking for it.Hojo Kyosuke complained in his heart.

Aisaka Gang next to him also criticized his friend's bad intentions.

At this time, Miki Okudera also came up with snacks, which were wagashi, which looked extremely exquisite, and the appearance alone was not inferior to those old shops with a long history.

After observing, she found that she should have finished speaking, so she sat next to Hojo Kyosuke.

"You can only eat such delicious dim sum when you come with Hojo-san." Said Aisaka.

"That's right, the exclusive food outside the menu is just extraordinary."

Miki Okudera covered her mouth and chuckled, generously thanked the compliment, and then said:

"Actually, Kyousuke's cooking skills are higher than mine, and I have to ask him often."

Well, as Kyosuke Kitajo's culinary talent has developed more and more, at first it was just an excuse to have a regular meeting, and the "trying new dishes" has become a real consultation.As long as he is free, Hojo Kyosuke will come to Yantei, and huddle together with Okudera Miki in the kitchen to study the whole day's cooking.

Even the most powerful range hood can’t be exhausted. The back kitchen is quite spacious, but the two of them feel extremely crowded standing there. Whether they are washing vegetables or picking up seasonings, their bodies will rub against each other. The hot kitchen is getting hotter.Soon I had to move the battlefield to the balcony on the second floor and start tasting the dishes I just made.

"Really? Hojo still has this ability?" Konno Kenzo said incredulously.

Normal people can't, and shouldn't be so omnipotent, right?Generally speaking, if you are so handsome, you can obediently be an idol with no brains and no culture. This guy insists on writing novels and drawing manga.

Is this the secret for him to win the favor of the beautiful college student cook?

"The kind of delicacy that you can't help but want to swallow your tongue." Miki Okode further explained.

"You guy, didn't you agree to invite us to our house as guests? I can bring the wine by myself, and the ingredients are in charge of the ingredients. I have worked hard to get you votes, and I will make a big meal to reward me !” Feng Saka just yelled.

Tsk, with your big mouths, I'm really afraid that after a meal, the whole association will start to spread the rumor that "Kyosuke Kitajo's family raised six beauties".

"Well, how about going to eat kaiseki cuisine, any restaurant is fine, even if you want to go to the restaurant."

"The kind we can go by ourselves. Besides, if we want to go to the restaurant, of course we have to be in Kyoto. By the way, we will recruit two lovely ladies from Fumi... Cough, anyway, I am looking forward to your big meal in Hojo, and I have written it down The memo is on."

Saying so, Aisaka just took out a small brown notebook and started writing.

Fumiyo?Unexpectedly, you are quite old-fashioned, Feng Saka. You are worthy of your title as a writer. You will be the next Nobel Prize winner.

Sighing, knowing that this matter cannot be avoided, Hojo Kyosuke thought for a while and said: "Then let me find a suitable time to invite you."

"You bastard, don't look reluctant, I invite you and Ms. Okudera to my house as guests today." Kenzo Konno said.

Miki Okudera smiled happily, her slender waist swaying slightly more charming than the peony by the window.Having experienced the banquet at Hojo's house, she fully understands someone's thoughts.Even if the neon literati have always been outrageous, there are not many like Kyosuke.

The two middle-aged men were very tactful and left after only ten minutes, leaving room for a man and a woman.

I haven't seen Miki for a week, and Kyosuke Hojo misses him very much, so he draws the curtains.The entire second floor instantly became dark, only a faint light came through from the stairs.

Stitching the chair into long strips, resting his head on those plump, slender and elastic thighs, he started his afternoon nap beautifully.

Said to be a person who has difficulty sleeping, hating light and sound, but smelling the good smell of Miki's body in his nose, and feeling the little hand brushing gently on his face, Hojo Kyosuke fell asleep soon.

Looking at the man lying in her arms, Miki Okudera smiled contentedly.When she first found out that Hojo Kyosuke was so much younger than herself, she really had a hard time accepting it. Although she was persuaded by the other party's love, she still felt a little awkward.

However, just as Kyosuke said, seeing him chatting and laughing with the chairman of the Writers Association and the backbone, and seeing how he was able to handle many girls with ease, I really didn't expect that it was just a boy in the first year of high school.

And with this tall and strong body, it really must be viewed as someone of the same age.Miki Okudera looked at the man tenderly.

Hojo Kyosuke was woken up by the sound downstairs, and slept for a full three hours, and it was time for dinner in the afternoon.

First, he rubbed Meiji's uncomfortable thighs, and instead of going home, he accompanied them to the kitchen, where he began to serve as a chef.The original female chef was announced to leave work early.

The day's work was not over until the sun was setting. Miki Okodera simply closed the store, and the two came to the nearby parking lot.After opening the store for a while, she also bought a car for convenience.It is usually used for emergency purchases and the like.

"I'm sorry Kyosuke, I didn't know Xiaojing would do such a thing." Driving the car, Miki Okudera whispered.Neither of them told her about it. It was only after a friend came to her house for a drink last night that they told her about it after they got drunk, and she didn't know until then.

"Yeah." Hojo Kyosuke shook his head, and after hearing Miki's uneasiness, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked her head:
"Isn't this exactly the same as what we said when we first met? This is the arrangement of God of Destiny."

"Pfft——" Hearing someone mention this, and remembering what happened at that time, Miki Okudera burst out laughing.

"Actually, at that time, I thought that although you were very mature, Kyousuke, your face looked a little small, but I thought you were a kind of person with a baby face."

"Actually, I might be that kind of person~" Hojo Kyosuke said in an erratic tone.

The gift "Back to the Beginning" given by Sanye, although there is a remark that "all interpretation rights belong to the system", but the functions revealed so far are already powerful enough.Not only stumps and broken arms can be restored, but even things like "youth" are no exception.

That is to say, when he feels that he is about the same size, he can directly return to his best condition.

"Huh?" Miki Okodera was puzzled.

"It's nothing, you will know when the time comes." Although there is no way to do it at the moment, it is impossible for him to enjoy this gift alone.

This time was not the peak time, so the two soon arrived at the door of Ruyiliao.

"Won't you come in and sit for a while?"

Seeing Miki sitting motionless in the car, he asked.

"Xiao Jing is already waiting for me at home, and she will complain non-stop when she returns home late."
