Tokyo Girlfriend Illustrated Book

"The mystery writer who swings his sword at the stronger one and defeats the superior!"

A line of large characters then appeared on the big screen, followed by a name - Kenzo Konno (President of the Neon Mystery Writers Association)

"This is a recommendation written by President Konno for my new work. In addition, some seniors will also help promote it."

Hojo Kyosuke said with a smile. This was his answer to another question from Yanohara.

"Are you worried about causing dissatisfaction with the association? President Konno is very happy that I can see this problem that may exist within the association. He is currently working on making the selection process more transparent and open..."

Then he wrote a long article. On the surface, he seemed to be introducing the secrets of the Mystery Writers Association. In fact, he was showing the close relationship between himself and the association. He just said directly, "Don't worry, everyone, my work will not only cause a Apart from the attention and popularity, there are no safety risks, and it is guaranteed to sell out."

As expected, Yanohara Nobushi from the Shimayama Bookstore chain nodded repeatedly, his expression became relaxed, and he sat down after bowing and thanking Mr. Hojo for his generous explanation.

After his introduction, a few more people asked questions, but they all asked about the subsequent publicity plan. Everyone's chests were beating loudly, saying that if Mr. Hojo wanted to hold a book signing, he would definitely support it.

Hojo Kyosuke naturally smiled and accepted the order, saying that this year's event would be far more powerful than last year's. The top priority now is to sell goods and sell books. As for whether it will surpass last year, who knows, he didn't win the award last year. If he said more good words when he won the award this year, wouldn't it mean that the activities have become more intense?

The atmosphere was so good that Chisong Youqi felt relieved.

"As expected of Mr. Hojo, he is so versatile!" He praised in a low voice.

Kisaki Tetsuta didn't say anything, wasn't that natural? He trusted his eldest brother immensely. If he couldn't handle it, his eldest brother would have given him a signal as early as the day before and asked him to visit the houses of these bookstore owners.

The activity of filling in the number of subscriptions continued. The simple boss who had previously gritted his teeth and wanted to fill in two thousand volumes now relaxed and happily wrote the words four thousand.

Ah, he is indeed Mr. Yanohara. If it were not for his keen observation and discovery of problems, Mr. Hojo would definitely not have revealed these inside information, and he would have almost lost so much money.

Editor Chisong personally took back the subscription orders one by one. He couldn't suppress the smile on his face, his white back teeth were exposed, and the bookstore owners laughed and teased him.

After the presentation, there was naturally a dinner party. It was already close to five o'clock, and the bosses who had come from afar were all waiting.

Hojo Kyosuke wanted to run away, but he still expected these shop owners to do a good job in publicity, so he had no choice but to follow him to the Ryotei. Although Chiyoda District is far less prosperous than Minato District, as a political and cultural center, the most important thing is high-end restaurants. Because the number of subscriptions was unexpectedly high, the publishing house suffered a lot of bleeding.

"Akamatsu, this eel is good." He praised softly while holding a piece of fried crispy eel tempura.

"This is their signature dish. If you want to eat it on weekdays, you have to queue for at least three hours."

As the knowledgeable editor Akamatsu spoke, he immediately called the waiter and offered to order twenty more takeaways.

"Hey, as long as the raw materials are enough, I will go home and do the cooking part myself." Hojo Kyosuke added with a smile.

…

And when Hojo Kyosuke skipped class and went to the publishing house, the school bell rang as soon as the school bell rang, and the teacher announced the end of get out of class without any pause. The classroom that had started to be in commotion as early as five minutes ago immediately became noisy, except for some people who had participated in the time request. The students from the strict club have already hurried out of the classroom. The others, boys and girls, just stayed in their seats and started chatting. Some were discussing homework, some were discussing where to go for dinner, and some were talking about where to go after the club activities. Where to kill time...

But all the excitement has nothing to do with Yukinoshita Yukino. She has no intention of joining other people's conversations, and no one wants to talk to her without opening their eyes. She just packed up her books and stationery neatly, and had to hurry up to get the club classroom key. If she was late, that idiot Sakura would definitely complain, and Hojo Kyosuke might make an excuse to leave early. Will Glass come today? Woolen cloth? It seemed to me that the office was very busy at work?

While thinking about it casually, a smile appeared on the girl's face.

"Yukoshita-san, are you looking forward to club activities?"

The sudden sound made Yukinoshita move her hands. She closed the cover of her schoolbag and raised her head. The person who spoke was the girl sitting in front of her, Kiyoshiko Tsuruno, whose family runs a lunch box club that is one of the top ten in neon. , this person is considered the smartest girl in the class besides her.

If you want to ask why Yukinoshita has such a high opinion of Yotsuruno, it was learned from the last discussion between the two of them about lunch boxes. Although the other party misunderstood her as a childish person who learned to meow by herself, she was very satisfied with the high praise of the cat lunch box. As we all know, people's aesthetics are linked to their IQ, so a person who likes cats must not be too stupid.

This is a conclusion drawn using her as an example. Although it seems a bit hasty to draw conclusions with such a small sample, the real truth does not require a large number of examples to verify. For example, Newton and apples. How can we replace apples with blacksmiths? Will the result of the anvil change?

In view of this, in order to prevent his past self from becoming a fool, Yukinoshita decided to listen to why Yotsuno Kiyoshiko said such a thing.

Looking forward to club activities? Own?

"Why would Yotsuruno-san ask that?"

She asked, and while speaking, she gently brushed the hair beside her ear, which had been blown down by the wind.

The familiar wind is coming, and I have to rush to the club classroom quickly. Feeling the wind caressing her face, Yukinoshita thought silently. Every time at this time, there would be a gust of wind blowing into the school from the west. The size and temperature were comfortable. In early April, it would bring the colorful cherry blossoms, and now it would bring the sprouting of green buds, which made her feel clearly. The flow of time, she most likes to read in this wind.

ah! ! Yukinoshita-san is so beautiful and handsome!

Being stared at by those bright light blue eyes and listening to that clear and cold voice, Kiyoshiko Tsuruno screamed in his heart.

Although Yukinoshita Yukino's question seemed a bit rude, she said she didn't mind at all because she knew it was just a simple question without any emotion. What's more, there is no one else in the class who can talk to Yukinoshita-san like this except her!

"Because I can feel it," she said with a smile.

"Can you feel it?"

Yukinoshita frowned slightly and turned to look at the girl on her right, trying to see if she could feel it from her. But she immediately realized that she had done something stupid. Because there is no need to feel it at all, the reason why the girl hasn't left the classroom is because she is complaining to her friends about the boring club activities, and she is making a vow that she will quit the club next semester.

So she turned to look at the boys at the back of the classroom again, and this time she felt it. Those boys were probably from the football club. They were constantly urging a boy who was a little slow in his hands and feet to hurry up. It looked like The runaway huskies are just as impatient. There is no need to feel this at all. Anyone with eyes can see their anticipation for club activities.

etc……

Yukinoshita suddenly shuddered. Could it be that she was like those boys?

No! Absolutely impossible! Although she is very satisfied with the club members and club activities she has accepted so far, there is absolutely no way she will become like that.

"Yes, Yukinoshita-san's movements of collecting books are very light, just like the last time I touched the lunch box to imitate the cat's meow. That way..."

"With Tsuruno-kun! I didn't imitate the meow!"

Yukinoshita categorically denied that she was not meowing like a cat, but was just talking to the white guy on the slip box. Although she was indeed speaking the language of the cat tribe, it was not a childish behavior like meowing at all. Do humans have to be labeled as learning how to speak a foreign language when they learn a foreign language?

So, so cute...

Yukinoshita-san, who uses strong words to hide her love for cats, is so cute. She is 10,000 times cuter than those girls who pretend to like cats to be cute!

Kiyoshiko Tsuruno felt another scream in her heart. At the same time, she must be glad that she had the courage to talk to Yukinoshita last time. As her contact increased and her understanding deepened, she found out more about Yukinoshita's classmate who looked withdrawn and indifferent. How cute.

"Yeah, I know, Yukinoshita-san must be talking to the cat relief!" She nodded repeatedly.

"You can say that, but I am actually not yet proficient in talking to cats. In 1944, Mildred Mork conducted a detailed study of cat vocabulary and discovered 16 types of words, including consonants and vowels. Meaningful pronunciation. Although it can be summarized by simple pronunciation when excited, pronunciation when angry, etc., this is still not accurate.

I found that the language of cats changes depending on the area where they live. Cats from Okinawa pronounce Moao~ which means happy and express joy, but cats in Tokyo will get very angry when they hear it. Cats in the Hakata region generally have softer voices, and their meows are very confusing. Cats in other places often don’t understand whether they are scolding or acting coquettishly..."

Seeing that Yukuru Ye understood what he said very well, Yukinoshita showed a comfortable smile, so he generously shared his research on the cat language with the other party. When talking about the rise, he also mentioned that when it rained yesterday, he went to the club activity room to eat alone. He used his lunch to bribe the cat that sneaked in to take shelter from the rain, and let the cat practice cat language with him all afternoon.

"Yeah, I see. There is such a thing. This is the first time I know about it, Si Guoyi!!"

Yotsuruno Kiyoshiko nodded repeatedly and kept exclamating from his mouth. But in fact, she has no interest in cats at all, she just thinks Yukinoshita-san is too cute. She had a serious face when talking about research, but she became extremely gentle when she started meowing, and she changed very quickly from movement to stillness. The huge contrast in cuteness almost made her scream.

But Yukinoshita, although she was addicted to talking about cats, she quickly noticed the perfunctory relationship with Tsuruno. This person is not interested in cats, he is clearly interested in her meowing like a cat! So she closed her mouth and said with He Ye's disappointed eyes:

"In short, my movements are normal. I am definitely not eager to participate in club activities!"

"But Yukinoshita-san, you are laughing. You must have been thinking about the club when you were putting your school bag away, right?"

Yotsuruno Kiyoshiko said with some envy. When she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed at the corner of her mouth with her index finger, indicating that Yukinoshita smiled like this.

Ah, if only Yukinoshita-san could invite me to go shopping while smiling like that, she thought in her heart, she would even be willing to turn into a cat if she could!

After hearing Yotsuruno's words, Yukinoshita subconsciously raised her hand to touch the corner of her mouth, but she quickly stopped because she was sure that what the other party said was true. I was really thinking about the club at that time!

“I didn’t expect that Tsuruno-san’s “human heart control technique” would be so powerful. "

The girl said with a complex expression. It was a great shame and humiliation for her to have someone see through her mind after studying the art of controlling people's hearts.

Um?

Kiyoshiko Tsuruno was stunned, "The art of controlling people's hearts"? what is that? Do you still need to master this thing? Yukinoshita-san, you just have to hold up a billboard to tell others that you really want to go to club activities as soon as possible.

But having never seen Yukinoshita-san's expression before, she felt a little proud for a moment, so she nodded inexplicably and said with pride and guilt:

"Just a little research."

From what Yukinoshita-san said, she seemed to be studying this thing too, and she and I had more common topics~ The girl was in a good mood.

"See you tomorrow!"

Yukinoshita buttoned up her schoolbag, stood up and said goodbye like a beast. The conversation between the two was as abrupt as a fault.

"Huh? Ah? Okay, see you tomorrow." Yotsuno Kiyoshiko responded blankly, what's wrong? Aren’t you having a happy chat? She was still thinking about whether she should take the opportunity to suggest that she go to her club with Yukinoshita-san.

Looking at the back of Yukinoshita Yukino walking out of the classroom, watching the flowing long straight black hair disappearing from sight, Yu Heno hated his own race so much, why was she not a cat? If so, it would be possible now I used meowing to persuade Yukinoshita-san to stay. That girl who is as cold and beautiful as snow will definitely turn around and hug her in her arms, caressing her gently.

Eh~~ It’s really a pity.

Yukinoshita's face became a little serious as she walked out of the classroom. At this moment, she was very clear that she was really looking forward to club activities. Now she is extremely eager to study the three rare samples in the club!

We must learn from Sakura, Glass, and Hojo Kyosuke to upgrade the "Heart Control Technique"!

After taking the key and coming to the special building, Yukinoshita saw Sakura walking in front of her on the stairs. Just as she was about to shout, she saw the figure in front of her running upstairs quickly in three steps and two steps.

This guy……

Yukinoshita, who had already thought about what would happen, sighed inwardly.

"Xiao Yukino, you are so slow. I have been waiting for a long time~~"

Yamauchi Sakura stood at the door of the classroom and complained loudly with her hands on her hips. Above her head, the door number of the service department was shining brightly. (End of chapter)
