Tokyo: Pick up the big sister next door at the beginning

Chapter 298 297. This guy is already a champion and yet he is so low-key!

"Oh hey!"

"Hey! Xinhai-kun, I heard that you won the literary newcomer competition??"

Early in the morning, Shinkai Taki came to school as usual, but as soon as he arrived at the school gate, a girl he didn't seem to recognize but had a ponytail with a few pink hairpins came over and greeted him proactively.

"Oh, who are you?"

Shinkai Taki glanced at the other person. He had a good figure, good looks, and a good voice.

But Shinkai Taki did not have much impression of the girl in front of him before, and he was a little confused for a while, until he saw another cute girl with twin tails from a distance, talking to the person next to him, Shinkai Taki suddenly shouted.

"Miko!!"

It’s Meiko! !

Has Mi Saijo recovered and returned to school? ?

I remember that in the hospital earlier, the doctor said that I needed to rest for a while.

At this time, the girl with two ponytails who was chatting with her left and right heard someone calling her name.

And it was a rare nickname. He froze on the spot, following the direction of the sound.

The cute look made Shinkai Taki laugh.

"here!"

"here!"

Shinkai Taki waved enthusiastically.

After Saijou Mi found out that it was her childhood sweetheart, Shinkai-kun, Saijou Mi quickly waved to greet her in excitement.

"Ah~ Shinkai-kun!"

"Xinhai-kun!"

"It's been a long time, it's been a long time. I've always remembered Xinhai-kun's rescue of me last time. I don't know how to repay you."

The two of them were obviously reunited after a long absence, and each showed joy, which made the girl who had just chatted with Shinkai Taki feel frozen for a moment.

What? I greeted you so enthusiastically, but ended up being attracted to other girls.

Hate!

It’s not like I’m not beautiful.

What's more, I am quite talented in writing, but in the same examination room, I only got fourth place.

At that time, this classmate of Shinkai Taki may not have paid much attention to her, but when the examiner announced that Shinkai Taki was the champion, she remembered his name firmly.

What was even more unexpected was that the two of them were alumni of the same school.

"No, no, no, our relationship requires repayment."

"How's it going? Is your recovery going well?"

Shinkai Taki quickly came to Saijo Mi's side. This girl was wearing a winter school uniform like everyone else today. She had cute twin tails and a red scarf around her neck.

"Well, the nurse sister said it was a bit dangerous when it was first delivered, but luckily it was delivered in time, otherwise it would have been life-threatening."

"By the way, Shinkai-kun, how are you, Sister Uehara?"

Not seeing Mi Saijo for a long time made Shinkai Taki get closer to her.

In the past, Shinkai Taki always felt weird after knowing that Saijo Mei had a crush on him. Now that she is recovering from her injury, Shinkai Taki feels that nothing is more important than living well.

Emotions are, after all, a small part of human life.

"Okay, now she has gone to a new company and has become a partner. There are many companies poaching her."

"Hee~ Xinhai-kun's neck seems a little cold, so I'll give you the scarf."

My neck does feel a little cold.

This year's winter is much colder than previous years for some reason. This is what Shinkaitaki felt before. Now Saijo is observing it carefully, so he gives Shinkaitaki the scarf wrapped around his neck and cares about it.

"No, no, you have just recovered and you need it more than me. If you want to give me a scarf, I will be ashamed of myself. I don't want it."

As soon as Saijo Mi took it off, Shinkai Taki quickly wrapped it around her neck.

Saijo Mei: "Shinkai-kun doesn't have to be polite to me. On the contrary, I will feel a little uncomfortable if I see Shinkai-kun catching a cold."

Shinkai Taki: "It's okay, Meiko is also an emotional girl."

He sighed with emotion, and suddenly his shoulders sank. A hand patted his shoulder, and he turned around. It was a tall boy, about 178cm tall, wearing thin black-rimmed glasses. After he saw him, The sunlight slid across the lenses of his glasses, revealing his handsomeness.

"Good boy, you don't even know how to tell your best friend when you are famous. It's really interesting."

"Huh? What's so hot?"

The person who came was none other than his friend and classmate Haidong Gaocheng.

"You are still pretending that the champion of the Tokyo Literary Newcomer Competition is not my friend Taki Shinkai of Takagi. Is there anyone else?"

"Soukar, brother, don't you know that I'm usually a very low-key person?"

"Then you can't be so low-key!"

"Others are just showing off their power after ranking in the top ten, but you are the first, but you are low-key and don't look like the first."

Gao Cheng meant to advise himself to have a good celebration.

Afterwards, Xin Haitaki said: "To make a fortune in silence, let's go to karaoke in the evening?"

"Agree!"

"Taki, you got a lot of bonus this time, right?"

"Well, 400 million yen, but the bonus hasn't come out yet. I have to ask about the progress."

In addition to the ranking that makes him shine, in fact, what Shinkaitaki likes the most is the bonus. If he is the organizer, he will definitely give the bonus directly on the day when the ranking is announced, which will surprise himself.

But now that the organizer’s process is like this, there is nothing they can do.

"It's indispensable. After all, the newcomer competition is also the face of the Tokyo literary world. It will be given to you soon."

"makes sense."

Shinkai Taki and Gao Cheng chatted while walking.

"Oh, hey, Mi Saijo."

"Hey, Takagi-kun."

During this period, Takagi and Saijo Mei said hello across Shinkai Taki.

Shinkai Taki quickly tilted his head and whispered in Gao Cheng's ear: "What? Are you interested in Meiko?"

"You can chase me if you like."

Both of them are good friends of Shinkai Taki.

If the two can be together, Xinhai Taki will also be happy for them.

But after Takagi heard this, he quickly replied in a low voice: "You kid! It's not like you don't know that Saijo Mei has always liked you. My other half may not have appeared yet. When it appears, there will be no way to stop it. You said Right? Taki?"

Gao Cheng winked at himself.

Shinkai Taki sighed, yes, this kind of thing cannot be forced, but it is true. When love comes, there is nothing to stop it. There is nothing you can do about the person you are destined for.

"What do you mean, Takagi-kun, you mean that Taki won first place in the literary newcomer competition?"

I had just met Xinhaijun and was very excited. I wanted to chat with him for a few more words. I saw Xinhaijun was the same.

But after Gao Cheng came, the two brothers started chatting.

It really corresponds to that sentence. Girls can chat with girls and boys with boys.

But it's understandable for girls to gossip with girls. Two boys can't talk to each other for so long when they ignore such a cute girl.

"Yes, it has been announced on the Tokyo Literary Forum's website, and it has also been on the hot search list. This guy Taki seems to be fine, this guy."

Gaocheng is a bit resentful.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have been so excited that he couldn't help himself.

He was just fine, just like any other person.

"A big tree attracts the wind. Only by staying humble can we continue to make progress. The Newcomer Award for Literature is just the starting point. My dream is the sea of ​​stars. From the perspective of the universe, we are just a drop in the ocean."

Shinkai Taki expressed his feelings.

And he felt that was indeed the case.

Humility can make people progress.

"Yes, Mr. Xinhai has a noble character, which is rare."

Saijo Mei was listening to what Shinkai Taki said to her. Although the two grew up together and knew each other's character very well, he had always been like this, but now that he can maintain it until now, she has nothing to say except admiration. that is……

It's just that he doesn't like himself.

Thinking of this, Saijo Mei suddenly felt a little painful in her heart.

Why, why should it be so excellent?

Why, you can pinch yourself hard at every point.

Shinkai Taki and Takagi were walking and chatting at the same time, and Saijo Mei quickly fell behind them.

As she walked, silent tears fell.

She was so sad.

I thought I was already well.

……

Clang clang~

"Today is the first day of the last week before this year's holiday. In the coming week, everyone can have a good rest~"

"The cold wave is coming, everyone should pay attention to keep warm~"

Class starts on time at 8:20 in the morning.

As Teacher Noriko kindly announced to everyone on the podium.

The atmosphere in the classroom quickly became relaxed and exciting.

After this year's holiday, the college entrance examination will be held immediately next year.

This should be the last moment of relaxation before the college entrance examination.

Sitting by the window, Shinkaitaki thought about the changes he was about to undergo and what he had experienced so far.

Target: University of Tokyo

Test Score: 656

Current score: 556

During this period, if you want to increase by 100 points and maintain stability, you cannot suffer too much interference.

Well, I have to grit my teeth and improve my scores in each subject.

As for the senior sister, she has just made a comeback and has officially entered the orbit. Now that the truth about her mother's suicide has just been brought to light, Yuko is left with what her eldest sister is currently experiencing. I don't know what she will do.

Thinking of this, Shinkai Taki felt that he had to accompany his elder sister and get through the difficulties with her.

After thinking about this, Shinkai Taki has always dreamed of buying a blazing off-road vehicle. If he gets the bonus, he can buy one.

After class, go and chat with Teacher Noriko.

On this Monday in the classroom, except for Shinkai Taki, who was thinking about what was going to happen next.

After being absent for several weeks, Saijou Mei finally came to the classroom. Everyone came over to care about her. Saijou Mei thanked them one by one. She had good academic performance and was also very popular.

Unfortunately, none of this was what she wanted. She was just coping on the surface. During this period, her peripheral vision looked diagonally towards her from time to time, only to find that she was never in the eyes of the person she cared about.

【Kana Uehara】

【Sakurai Yui】

【Yuko Mikami】

……

During the break in class, Mi Saijo, who had been listening carefully to the class, took out her notebook and instead of taking notes, she wrote down the names of the three girls one by one.

And keep using the pen to deepen the handwriting and keep outlining.

It seemed that without them, Xinhaijun would definitely be with him.

Yes, without them, Xinhaijun would indeed be with him.

In the past, Xinhaijun said that he liked girls with fair skin wearing double ponytails and pleated skirts.

Since then, I have dressed up like this every day. The two of them did have a better time in junior high school, but at that time they were just young and ignorant of emotions.

And this thought doesn't matter, how to separate Xinhaijun from them all?

When Saijo was thinking about such a plan, Teacher Noriko suddenly proposed that Saijo should go to the podium to explain a reading comprehension text.

As smart as Saijo Mi!

Wisdom is as beautiful as Saijo!

The response is as fast as Saijo Mi!

Even though she was distracted, for a Chinese subject, it was just an easy task for her, a top student who often ranks first in Chinese studies.

After he finished explaining, everyone burst into applause in admiration. Even his competitor Akari Fujita, who was sitting in the front row, turned to him and said, "Not bad, Miko. It seems that you didn't fall behind in your studies while you were in the hospital."

"See you soon with your college entrance examination results."

Saijo Mi replied politely.

Teacher Noriko praised Saijo Mi's talent on the podium and expressed concern: "I have just been discharged from the hospital and come to school. After class, I have to take good care of myself at home."

Saijo Mei nodded.

But just as everyone's class was ending, Saijo Mei suddenly raised her hand and said to Teacher Noriko: "Teacher, I have an idea that I don't know if I can talk about it."

"Of course, any ideas that can help with learning are welcome."

Teacher Noriko is organizing teaching materials on the podium.

He said softly and curiously.

"That's it," Saijo said soon, "Xinkai's Chinese and English scores have never been very good. I hope to help him and give him more tutoring. I wonder if I can set up a study group and provide one-on-one support." , students with good grades can also choose the ideas they come up with on the spur of the moment, and together we can improve the overall performance of the class.”

……

My grades are bad?

At this moment, I was thinking about what the female president who likes women would do to my eldest sister after she went to the company today.

I will definitely call my eldest sister later and ask.

Suddenly he heard that Saijo Mi wanted to help him improve his academic performance, and he was stunned for a moment.

I used to be very poor, but later, wasn't it because my academic performance was already among the top ten in the class?

Although he is not as good as top students like them, his grades are still in the middle and upper reaches.

Saijo Mei wants to help herself make up lessons.

For Shinkai Taki, who had just improved his grades, it was a bit of a surprise. Although he later realized that it would be difficult for him to improve his grades by more than 100 points.

It was perfect for Saijo Mi to help him.

"Yes, it's a good idea."

"Do you have any comments?"

Teacher Noriko felt a little comforted for a moment when she heard Saijo Mi say this.

Mi Saijo and Akari Fujita compete in academic performance. They are the study leaders in the class, and whoever is the first to be the study committee member is also the leader.

Now I can really think about the overall performance of the class.

"support!"

"support!"

"I was just thinking about someone who could help me improve my grades!"

"Saijomi-san is really nice."

As soon as Saijo Mi's words came out, the students with lower academic performance in the class were the most happy.

Not only can I maintain a relatively good relationship with classmates with good grades, but I can also effectively help myself. This is a rare opportunity.

"Angri, do you want to compete again?"

Saijo Mi and Akari are in the front and back, and they are like enemies and friends. In this case, if Akari agrees, then she can get along with Shinkai-san openly.

Unexpectedly, Akari said: "Of course you can, but Saijo-san doesn't want to be a drunkard in the bar?"

"Why don't we each take charge of Shinkai-kun's two courses and see which one of his grades improves more? I think Mi Saijo also hopes that Shinkai-kun's grades will improve overall, right?"

Fujita Akari smiled lightly.

This morning I heard that Xinhai classmate won the championship in the literary newcomer competition. The admiration for him in my heart had disappeared along with the beauties at that time, but now, he is so good.

……

Damn it, there are ripples in my heart again.
