Tokyo Wingman King

Chapter 380 European Trip, Kiss, and Assistant

There was another round of cheers when the plane landed.

In the Love Consultation Club, Pochi and Fuzugawa also joined in the fun and whistled.

Asama ended his study time.

Fujiwara was still hammering the back of his chair with perseverance, although he did take a break - Asama once thought that Austrian Airlines had added a massage function to its seats.

Daimyojin was still sleeping, and in her sleep she adjusted the back of her chair and rested her head on his shoulder again. Fujiwara's continued hammering did not affect her sleep.

He put away the desk and notebook and looked out the window. The sky above the Swithat Airport was clear. Majima, who was also putting away his notebook by the window, gave Asama a bright smile.

"It's 33 degrees in Vienna today, which is a bit hot."

Ichijo touched the inner window, feeling the heat outside. Although he had a great time yesterday, he lost motivation when he thought about rehearsals today and no time to play with Asama.

Busui suggested.

"After Masumi-chan finishes rehearsal, how about we take a night cruise on the Danube together? Did everyone bring a swimsuit? It would be a waste if they didn't wear one~"

So the night tour you mentioned means swimming at night?

Feeling the gaze, Asana tilted his head to the left. Hououin was staring at him like a porcelain doll, without blinking.

"anything?"

"I'm curious about what you've been listening to. Your two headphone cables have been in different pockets from the beginning, which means you've been listening to two kinds of music or radio at the same time. Won't they interfere with each other?"

"Is there a possibility that I just want to add some background music to this dry lecture?"

Asana made up an excuse without thinking.

Fenghuangyuan's eyes widened slightly, and then nodded.

Pochi hugged Hououin from behind, resting his chin on Hououin's shoulder, and said with a smile.

"Hey, Ah Shui is famous for not being able to multitask. When we were playing Brain Split, his scores were always at the bottom."

"Is that so?"

"Huhu, a man who is devoted to his wife is more attractive to girls."

Jinguji covered his mouth with one hand and smiled with his eyes narrowed like a raccoon cat.

"The only thing that Ah Shui can do with multiple things at once is probably [coaxing girls], right?"

"Pochi, it seems you haven't finished your recent homework for me yet?"

Asama interrupted Pochi's nonsense.

"Humph, all study and no play will make Master Pochi stupid."

Pochi stuck out his tongue and made a face at Asama.

"Teacher O, Ms. Pochi did her homework before bedtime yesterday, but she didn't finish it."

"Robert, a combination of work and rest is the key to learning efficiency. It doesn't matter if you spend two days on it."

"That's it."

As the darling of the love consultation department, his problem of being spoiled and arrogant is becoming more and more prominent. Asama decides to return to Japan and discipline this guy.

Asama and his friends, along with the Berlin University of the Arts Symphony Orchestra, booked a hotel in the first district called Beethoven.

The Old Town District 19 was all of Vienna until Vienna expanded and merged with other districts in the th century.

Therefore, the Hofburg, Museum District, St. Peter's Church, St. Stephen's Church, Golden Hall, City Hall, Belvedere Palace and other city highlights are all in this area and not far from their hotel.

After returning to the hotel and dropping off our luggage, we said goodbye to the Love Consultation Department and the band.

The schedule for the past two days is very full. In addition to rehearsing today, they will go to the Golden Hall to rehearse early tomorrow morning until their official performance. The reason for such hard work, which is different from the previous two performances, is said to be to put some pressure on the Leipzig University of Music and Drama Symphony Orchestra, which will perform the day after tomorrow.

There was no hatred between the two schools, but the professors and conductors on both sides did not get along, and the personal grudges between the two groups naturally turned into a battle of honor for the schools.

Seeing her waving every three steps, Asama simply stood still and watched her follow Ms. Ebi onto the bus.

"I thought Shizumi-kun would go over and instruct them."

Erjian said with a smile.

"Other orchestras have teachers, conductors, and experts like Ms. Ebi all here, so they probably don't need me."

"Teacher, see you tonight~"

Shinomiya and Ogata also came over to say goodbye. They were going to Schönbrunn Palace to shoot a VLOG, so they also said goodbye in advance. Although Shinomiya's family is not short of money, Shinomiya Yukina has already received more than 10 advertisements of various sizes through her social media. In terms of popularity, she is no less than those professional idols such as Toyo Eiwa.

It's a pity that neither Jiandao nor Futami have the desire to become an idol.

Jinguji waved in front of Asama.

"I'm sorry, Asama-kun, our wonderful time together is over for now. Let's say goodbye here~"

Pochi hugged Asama's left arm and asked,

"Where are you going, Riyo-chan and Jinguji-senpai?"

"Let's go on a date~"

Fuzugawa also hugged Jinguji Rimi's left arm and winked at Pochi with a smile.

Both Fuzugawa and Jinguji changed into formal attire, obviously going to attend a formal occasion. Where were they going? Fuzugawa didn't tell them yesterday, and Asama didn't ask. She would tell him sooner or later anyway.

Austria does not have many public welfare resources. I wonder if Fuzugawa can get music teaching and music exchange students for her welfare home plan. Instead of donating money in exchange for policies, it is better to invest the money directly in the welfare home.

Perhaps to clarify this matter, we need to investigate the variable Jinguji.

The tulips purchased from the Amsterdam flower market were loaded into a nanny car by the Jinguji family, and Fuzugawa followed Jinguji into a black Audi.

After saying a few goodbyes, Asama, Futami, Majima, Pochi, Hououin, and Fujiwara, a group of six, began their city walk in Vienna.

This is a combination of actions that had never been anticipated.

Without the adhesive effect of the Busei River, Fujiwara's existence became somewhat abrupt.

She did not stand with the other girls, but instead stood face to face with Pochi, occupying the position to the right of Asana.

"Asama Asama, where are we going now? Let's go to the Belvedere Palace and record how many couples visit Klimt's The Kiss in one day, and then interview them about how they view the inequality of love shown in the painting; or ask a girlfriend: If you have to choose between 100 million and your boyfriend, what would you choose?"

Asama doubted how long she could survive without the secret protection of the Fujiwara family's bodyguards.

"How about going to Belvedere?"

Asama asked.

"No, I want to eat pork cutlet!"

Pochi raised objections immediately.

"It will be all right."

Jiandao pursed her lips. She had done her homework on both the fried pork cutlet and the Belvedere Palace.

"No problem~"

Futami supports going to Belvedere Palace, although she would rather go to Schönbrunn Palace or the Sissi Museum.

"The Belvedere."

Phoenix Court has made the final decision.

The vote count was 3:1, and Pochi's pork cutlet was far away from her. Phoenix Court asked,
"Master, do you need me to arrange something?"

"No, just go and buy your ticket. Today is Monday, so there shouldn't be many visitors. If you have to queue, just queue."

Jiandao searched for "Kiss" on his cell phone and handed it to Pochi.

"Ms. Pochi, this is the painting you were talking about."

In the painting, a tall man is hugging and kissing a woman with a happy face. The woman's face is more intoxicated than Psyche in Bouguereau's "The Happy Soul".

“You can’t come to Vienna without listening to Beethoven, and you can’t come to Vienna without seeing Klimt.”

Jiandao recited the tour guide words he had heard from somewhere and introduced the Austrian painter Klimt to Pochi.

The son of a gold engraver, he used gold foil as a painting material and incorporated the extravagant and luxurious style of Byzantine mosaics into his own works, creating extremely dazzling golden works.

Speaking of Klimt, this great painter and Vienna also had a mutually beneficial relationship.

After Franz I, the founding emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, decided to turn Vienna into a magnificent empire like Paris and ushered in the Golden Age of Vienna, the subsequent urban expansion movement gave Klimt plenty of opportunities to show himself during his student years. His works, from freedom to modernism to the final decorative style, also fully record the changes in Vienna's thoughts and the epitome of the collapse of the Habsburg regime.

After listening to Jiandao's introduction, Fenghuangyuan also helped to make appropriate supplements.

After learning about the golden characteristics of Klimt's works and that the Belvedere Palace houses 24 of Klimt's paintings, Bochi became interested.

"Well, the golden pork cutlet and the golden painting are both within the hunting range of the golden hunter Pochi. It's no problem to temporarily change the hunting order."

How badly do you want to eat Austrian schnitzel?
It is about 2 kilometers from the hotel to Belvedere Palace, which takes more than half an hour to walk.

Asama escaped from the squeeze of Pochi and Fujiwara and walked alone in front.

The girls followed behind with umbrellas.

Musical performances can be seen everywhere on the streets of Vienna.

He plays guitar, violin and sings beautifully, all professionally.

“This is the City of God’s Ears.”

Jiandao sighed. She knew little about classical instruments, but when she saw that there were many respected singers in the world's music capital, her inferiority complex was wiped out.

Futami was stopped by a street performer, who put a marionette in his palm and performed ballet.

When the artists heard Futami say thank you in German, their genuine smiles became even brighter.

"Beautiful oriental girls, your arrival has healed my long-lost heart."

The old man probably borrowed the words from a poem by the Austrian poet Rilke: "Whoever is lonely now will be lonely forever."

If the glory of the French-speaking world is in Africa, then the glory of the German-speaking world is in Central and Eastern Europe.

Perhaps no German would hate Vienna, because this city hides another side of the Germanic soul.

Vienna is even a place that better represents the inspiration and soul of the two Austrian poets Rilke and Trakl than their hometown.

Likewise, Vienna is half of the history of Western classical music. Mozart, Haydn, Schubert, Beethoven, Strauss, Brahms, Schoenberg, too many music masters have stayed in this city.

In terms of art painting, there is the splendor of Klimt, the founder of the Vienna Secession, and the gloom and depth of Egon Schiele, the master and apprentice, like light and darkness, interpreting a complete era at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.

Freud is also a mirror of Vienna, reflecting the city's progress from classicism to modernism.

In this way, the Central Cemetery seemed to attract Asama more than the Belvedere Palace.

At night, when everyone is asleep, go and pay your respects to those masters.

Vienna today is 10 degrees hotter than Vienna in August in previous years.

Global warming is already a consensus.

After experiencing the unreasonable, high-humidity heat in Tokyo, the heat in Vienna seemed bearable.

The wind blowing along the avenue and the endless music are also wonderful ways to cool off in Vienna.

The city is like an open-air video store.

I just heard Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons" and then "La Vie en Rose". Four violins played Mozart and then four guitars played "Hotel California".

Not counting the more distant performances heard by [Feng Cong Er], Asama was like an impatient customer, cutting through more than 30 songs in half an hour.

Music can not only cool you down, but also make your steps lighter. It seems that the Eastern European bards can add buffs.

It took them only 28 minutes to reach Belvedere Palace.

The weather is quite hot today and it is Monday, so as expected, there are not too many people queuing at the door.

Except for Asama who rented a Chinese narrator, everyone else rented the Japanese version. Of course, Fujiwara also rented a Japanese narrator.

"Is Asama Asama good at Chinese?"

"good."

"The Great Sensei is really learning all the time."

Phoenix Court sighed.

Following the guide's guidance, the group soon saw Gustov Klimt's "The Kiss", "Judith" and 24 other works at the Upper Belvedere Palace.

Standing in front of the picture of "The Kiss", Futami and Mashima, who originally thought it was very romantic, both recalled Fujiwara's version of the commentary. In a love relationship, although women are the beneficiaries, they are also the weaker and smaller party.

"Is there really no love in this man's kiss?"

Jiandao asked.

"Love may be hidden. Isn't it said that the love of traditional men is as quiet as a mountain? Silent love is also an expression of love. With this large piece of gold, it seems that love has been plated with a layer of gold, becoming eternal. Everyone appreciates this painting as a symbol of romance and love."

The narrator laughed.

Fenghuangyuan was surprised at how little the narrator knew about the painting.

"Although both of them have satisfied their desires in this painting, there is no love. This painting is full of labels such as dominance, power, and sex for men, and beauty, softness, indulgence, and vassalage for women. This is a work that Klimt created using his artist and his long-term partner Emilie Flög as a symbol. It does not paint any exposed parts, but is full of sexual and violent elements that are unacceptable to traditional morality.

This painting is a self-mockery of his ruthless love for women, as he had countless lovers throughout his life; this painting is also his interpretation of [themes of love and sex] to fight back against criticism and deconstruct tradition. "

Asama nodded and said,
“Indeed, former Minister Fujiwara’s position is correct. This kiss is different from the photograph of a sailor and a nurse at the end of World War II. The male posture in the kiss is distorted and violent, and the whole painting is full of inequality. But there is still love in this painting, the intoxicated love of this woman with her eyes closed.

The modern concept of equality in love was born along with the theme of "Who loves whom more" that comes to mind when looking at this painting."

Like this, Asama, Hohoin, Majima, Futami, and Fujiwara successively participated in the discussion of each painting.

The originally enthusiastic tour guide had lost his energy. In the subsequent introduction, he only read the author and the title of the work once and then maintained a stiff smile, nodding as he listened, like a student.

For this Japanese commentator, this torture-like experience can be listed among the top ten darkest moments in his life.

"It's too easy for a Vienna commentator to make money."

Fujiwara's words made the commentator blush.

This guy didn't even think about how others would answer such a ridiculous question as "How many P's does Klimt have at most?" The key point is that he made others look at him and the girls around him with strange eyes.

Asana came back from using the restroom and noticed that the girls were looking at him differently.

"what happened?"

"Shizumi-kun has been enjoying visiting art galleries so much lately, is it because of Mr. Sasaki?"

"In order to be Sasaki-sensei's teaching assistant next semester, you want to stay with her every day?"

ah? (End of chapter)
