Tokyo Girlfriend Illustrated Book

After lunch, Hojo Kyosuke and Yukino parted ways for the time being. The two agreed to go home and farm together after school in the afternoon. Just like Hojo Kyosuke's school, after the main exams are over, the students' tasks for this semester are basically over.

If it's a big city like Tokyo, students will start attending private schools, which are cram schools, in these days. However, Itomori obviously did not have this condition. If he wanted to attend a cram school, he would have to go to Hida City not only to Gifu Prefecture.

In fact, tutoring is also available in Neon schools, but only in schools for the purpose of further education. And it is generally not called tutoring, but something like "summer intensive lectures" or "admission courses". However, the high school department in Dongcheng is very simple and is simply called tutoring for senior high school students.

After school, Hojo Kyousuke took Sayaka and Shishi and wandered towards Yukino Momoka's house. The latter did not need to lecture or attend classes. He went home after handling school matters.

"Why do I have to go to work with you as soon as school is over?" Shi Shi muttered, pushing his women's bicycle behind him.

"Hey? Do you have club activities that you need to participate in?" Hojo Kyosuke said with a smile.

"I think so." The envoy was attacked by ten thousand tons in an instant. Whether it was a radio club or an occult training club, he would be willing to stay there all day if possible. It's a pity that the two departments of Itomori together can't even find people to form a baseball club, let alone those niche clubs he likes.

"Hey, I joined the farm work club." Sayaka said proudly. She was the only one among the three to join the club.

The envoy rolled his eyes. It was a club like a mutual aid club. The daily club activity was to help each other with farm work after school, which was similar to their current purpose.

"But even if you have to go to work, can you wait for me to go home and change into a set of clothes?" the emissary said.

That's it. It seems to be the case. Hojo Kyousuke was stunned when he heard this. Because he had experienced a disaster like a music exam when he arrived, and then had a happy lunch with Yukino, he had forgotten that his lower body was still unprotected by safety pants. No wonder he always felt weird when walking.

"Yes, yes, I can't go pulling weeds with my leather shoes on." Sayaka raised her feet and looked at her shiny round-toed leather shoes.

"Then let's meet at Yukino's house later." As usual, Hojo Kyosuke decided to go back and change into sportswear before coming back. The thought of wielding a hoe in a skirt made his scalp numb.

After returning home, Hojo Kyosuke first prepared his grandma's dinner, then put on his sportswear and took Yotsuba, who was shouting to help Yukino, out the door.

Walking on the mountainous road and looking at the seemingly endless slopes, Hojo Kyosuke deeply felt the limitations of the human body. Not to mention motorcycles, as long as he has a bicycle, he can carry Yotsuba and rush to Xueno's house easily while blowing the mountain breeze. There is no need to walk as slowly as now.

"But what should we do when we go uphill?" Yotsuba found a blind spot.

"Then I'll hold the handlebar in front and you push from behind." Hojo Kyosuke teased the little girl.

"Oh, that's all we can do." Siye shook her head and sighed helplessly.

This is also a test of life.

This was the catchphrase of an old gentleman in Itomori Elementary School where she attended. Although what the old gentleman said was difficult to understand, Yotsuba felt that she must have understood the true meaning of his words. After all, the old gentleman only served as the abbot of the temple in Baishan Village, and his family has been running the shrine for generations. It seems that he is even more powerful.

Now that I heard my sister's words, I imagined the joy of the two of them riding bicycles together and rushing down this long slope to the end. Yotsuba thought that this must be a test of life. After all, it was downhill when going there and it must be uphill when coming back. There can't be a journey that is all downhill, right?

Although she was only a primary school student and could not think deeply about this, she understood it just by trying, and imitated the old gentleman's tone and said with emotion:

"Ah - this is also a test of life."

"Hahahaha, where did Yotsuba learn this sentence?" Hojo Kyosuke was amused by the little girl's cute look.

"The teacher in school taught me." Siye said matter-of-factly, but then she thought of another question:

"But it seems that we don't have a bicycle at home!"

"It seems so, but does Neon actually exist in families without bicycles? It's amazing."

Hojo Kyosuke thought for a while, and it seemed that Mitsuha Mitsuha's house really didn't have this thing. They had exchanged it so many times, and he had basically explored all the places in Miyamizu Shrine.

On the green asphalt road that can only accommodate two cars parallel, the apricot light of the gradually setting sun falls on the road. Two people, one tall and one small, are walking while talking. Hojo Kyosuke is walking on the side close to the road, and Yotsuba It is next to the guardrail of the highway, and it looks like a leisurely countryside scenery.

"There used to be some at home, but my father was taken away by him when he ran away from home. Sister, didn't you complain about this before when you were learning to ride a bicycle?" Siye tilted her head and thought for a moment and said, Sister It seems a little weird again, that I even forgot about this.

runaway?

Hojo Kyosuke was stunned. It turned out that this was how Yotsuba viewed his father who left home to join politics. In the eyes of his grandmother, who is the head of the temple, Toshiki Miyamizu was kicked out of the house. In Miyami Mitsuha's heart, she became a heartless person who abandoned her family.

It's amazing that the same person and the same thing actually have three opinions in the same family. However, it seems that the little girl Miyamizu Yotsuba, who has not had much experience of her father's love since she was a child, is the least disgusted with her father, and even uses relatively cute words like "running away from home".

"When I see my ruthless father again in the future, you will make him speechless just like you did today!"

This was his second exchange, encountering the memo written by Mitsuha Miyamizu after the day Toshiki Miyamizu gave his campaign speech. It was also from that time that Hojo Kyousuke had his first impression of the strange man. He also learned some scattered information about Miyamizu Mitsuha's father from Tie Shi and Sayaka.

But maybe it was out of avoidance or something like that. Although they were close friends, Sayaka basically didn't tell her any useful information. It's because the imperial emissary's family construction company is a loyal supporter of Toshiki Miyamizu's campaign, so he told a lot of information. But most of them are information about Toshiki Miyamizu's campaign making great progress. Today he won the votes for the entrance area, and tomorrow he won the votes for the flat area.

"Every time they come back to my house to drink and celebrate, they all yell and blush. It's really annoying." The emissary said.

Hojo Kyosuke doesn’t know whether he really thinks the adult world is noisy or is irritated because he is forced to warm wine and serve food. In short, Hojo Kyosuke’s portrait of Toshiki Miyamizu is basically like this:

The father of Mitsuha Mitsuha and Yotsuba Miyamizu was born into a wealthy family in Nara, a student at a prestigious school, a former folklorist, a former clergyman, and the current mayor of Itomori Town. He is an enterprising politician who actively promotes the development of Itomori Town. The campaign promises are basically based on economic development and increasing job opportunities.

Although he felt pity for the sensible Yotsuba, and although he heard what Mitsuha Mitsuha said to the townspeople from Yukino, and was moved by the other party's filial piety, he still had no intention of intervening in Mitsuha Mitsuha's family affairs. Besides, the two of them had just met last time, and they didn't even say a word to each other, as if they were frightened and lost their souls.

Mitsuha Miyamizu mentioned this in the memo last time, but it made him feel guilty for a while.

"Bicycles are not rare things. I will get one back for you later." He promised casually.

"Really!?"

Yotsuba was surprised and said that in Itomori, where the average person walks, for a child, owning a bicycle is a big deal. It can be said that owning a bicycle means having a happy childhood, but Yotsuba, who has always been very sensible, has never mentioned this matter. After all, if you have time to ride a bicycle, you might as well do something for the family.

It is very hard for my grandmother and sister to manage such a large shrine. If I want to become the shrine master in the future, I must work hard from an early age. She will recruit a son-in-law to inherit the shrine! As for my sister, doesn’t she want to go to Tokyo? Just let her live more comfortably.

That's right, although she is only a first-year elementary school child, Yotsuba has long had the ambition to become the head of Miyamizu Shrine. Anyway, inheriting the shrine is a painful thing for my sister, so let me do it myself. In this way, the plan to sell kuchizhu wine on the Internet can be implemented smoothly, and I will definitely be able to restore the glory of Miyamizu Shrine!

However, if you can have a bicycle, what second grade child would refuse it.

"Will I still lie to you?"

Hojo Kyosuke was indeed not talking nonsense. When he and Sayaka went to the imperial envoy's house to play, he saw an abandoned children's bicycle among the debris piled in his backyard. It could be used with a little repair. At that time, he had experienced Such an idea was forgotten.

stare!

Yotsuba didn't speak, but suddenly stopped and turned around, raising his head and looking at his sister with questioning eyes.

"..."

Hojo Kyousuke was startled, and then he remembered that Mitsuha Miyamizu, who even knew how to strictly separate himself from his sister even when it came to ice cream, seemed to have a little low credibility here.

"Okay, how about I help you get it done today?" He rubbed the little loli's head and said. He recalled that the bicycle he saw last time seemed to have a seat, the brake line was missing, and the body was rusted in many places. , at this level, as long as you have the tools, you can definitely finish it in an hour, and you will be at Xueye's house for dinner.

"That's great!" Siye jumped up happily, then immediately turned around and walked towards the envoy's house, but she stopped after taking only two steps, turned her head and said seriously:

"But aren't we going to help Xueye?"

"Just let those weeds live for one more day. This is also the mercy of the miko." Hojo Kyosuke said casually.

Then the two of them turned around and walked towards the direction of the imperial family. The imperial family and Sayaka's home was farther away from Lake Uraito, so even though they were riding bicycles, the imperial family and Sayaka went to school more often than Miyazaki. Water clover is much slower.

Before the two of them took two steps, they heard the sound of the envoy and Sayaka bickering from a distance.

"Really, that monk is bullying Sayaka again!" Yotsuba said angrily.

That little look made Hojo Kyosuke very happy. This little guy really likes Sayaka.

"Three leaves~four leaves~"

Seeing Hojo Kyosuke, Sayaka immediately stopped exchanging feelings with the envoy, raised her hands and shouted.

Okay, now the sense of déjà vu in the neon countryside chapter is more complete.

Hojo Kyosuke didn't stop and kept walking forward. The envoy also slowed down and parked his bicycle in front of Hojo Kyosuke.

"Hello, Yotsuba." Jumping off the back seat of the bicycle, Sayaka said hello to Yotsuba immediately. No wonder Yotsuba liked her so much, and hated the emperor so much.

"Hello Sayaka." Yotsuba responded sternly. Children like to imitate the behavior of adults to gain satisfaction, which is clearly reflected in her.

"Sanye, isn't Mr. Xueye's home over there?" the emissary asked.

"Oh, plans have changed. I plan to help Yotsuba get a bicycle." Hojo Kyosuke explained.

"Oh, is it the one I found in the garbage in my backyard last time?"

"What do you mean by a garbage dump? It's so rude, that's for reuse!" Yotsuba wrinkled his nose and corrected him with his hands on his hips.

The imperial emissary rolled his eyes and did not follow the young man's argument. When he was working in a construction company, he would help clean up things that the owner didn't want, and he would take them home if he saw something that seemed useful. After all, in rural areas, there is no need to worry about things taking up space.

"It's true that the bicycle can still be used after repairing it, but wouldn't it be a little bit to give it to Yotsuba..." Although the little guy didn't have a good face every time he saw him, the emissary still felt very fond of this friend's sister. caring.

That's right, Hojo Kyosuke was stunned. The TV and refrigerator in his home were all second-hand from a second-hand store, so he didn't feel anything about this kind of thing. However, as a little girl, Yotsuba might...

"Imperial Envoy, you sound like a rich man." Siye glanced at the Envoy with her little eyes. She still didn't have a good tone, but everyone understood what she meant.

The imperial emissary slapped his forehead, turned around and walked back while pushing his women's bicycle.

Indeed, I have become so particular that even the bicycle I use is a women's bicycle that my mother has discarded. Now I start to have random thoughts.

Hojo Kyosuke rubbed Yotsuba's head. This little girl is so sensible that it makes people feel heartbroken.

He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Yukino Momoka to inform him of the matter.

"Understanding (smiley face)" - Teacher Yukino

This smiley emoticon is either a cute emoticon or the kind of emoticon that comes standard on ordinary mobile phones given by telecommunications companies. However, Hojo Kyousuke always felt that he could see Yukino's gentle smile from that expression, and the lines at the corners of Huang Doudou's mouth seemed to have become softer.

The group of people soon arrived at the backyard of the envoy's house. It was said to be the backyard, but it was actually a large open space behind the house.

The size of the waste was now twice as large as the last time Hojo Kyosuke saw it. When he was worried about how to find the bicycle, the envoy had already pushed the bicycle out of a small shed nearby.

"I've cleaned it since you told me last time, but I haven't started repairing it yet."

"Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to be quite reliable!" Seeing the bicycle, Siye felt that his Majesty also liked it.

Yotsuba's sudden change of attitude made the other three laugh, and then they started repairing the bicycle.

Just as Hojo Kyosuke remembered, the seat and brake lines were missing, and the fenders were missing. Fortunately, the imperial family had enough tools. He found a piece of wood and cut it into the shape of a seat. He then fixed it to the bicycle with screws and wrapped it with unwanted old clothes. It was even softer than the original version. Brake cables are not a problem, so I have a bunch of spare ones at home. If time hadn't allowed, Hojo Kyosuke would have planned to cut a solid wood footrest for Yotsuba.

The last problem was the rust on the car body. Considering that Yotsuba was already impatient to drive her new mount, Hojo Kyosuke asked the emissary to find some pieces of colored paper to wrap up the main parts such as the rungs, etc. Give her a good paint job when Ye is not riding.

Then, a shiny bike is complete.

Thanks to the leader of "Yan Yu Xin" for his support, I will add another 20,000 words (but I have to wait)

Originally, I would have been happy to have a leader, so I should have coded hard, but it seems that I caught a cold last night because I was too excited, and I had a headache all day long. Please allow me to rest for one day and continue to do so tomorrow.

The leader’s update will be posted after I finish writing it.

I went to bed today because I had to write some emotional lines, so I didn’t dare to write because I was in a bad mood.

Let me briefly tell you about the upcoming plot, including Glass's consideration for further education, the arrangement of Kasumigaoka Shiha's line, the protagonist's career line, and some foreshadowing for the future.

The next two years of junior high school will not be as detailed as what I wrote before. I will try my best to transition to high school as quickly and smoothly as possible.
