I teach kendo in Tokyo

After Christmas, it’s the Japanese New Year.

In fact, the Japanese New Year faces a similar problem to the Chinese New Year in the immediate future: there is no sense of the year.

Generally, many people have almost forgotten all the things to do in Japan during the New Year, and there is only one red and white song battle left to watch.

This year, the red and white songs will join forces, and Kazuma gets the news that Kobayashi and Masato will take the stage. Because he released a single that became popular in Japan last year.

As the composer of the single, Kazuma had hoped to be invited to watch the Kohaku Uta battle live, but I don’t know why Kazuma was not invited in the end.

It doesn't matter if he is a horse, it's more worry-free when you watch it on TV.

While the Red and White Song Battle was going on, Amao stayed in his room to seize the last moment to review.

After the Japanese New Year, it was the first hurdle he had to face: the joint entrance examination.

If you can't even pass the college entrance examination, getting into college is just like a dream.

Kazuma was also a candidate last year, but he remembered correctly. At that time, he and everyone had a great time watching the Kohaku Uta Battle.

Of course, when I took the exam, I was in a different state than Amao. At that time, I basically didn’t have to worry about math because of my nine-year compulsory education, and I basically didn’t have to worry about English because I relied on the capital I had saved from working in foreign trade companies for many years. At this time, I didn’t have to worry about it. It's almost certain that I will be admitted to Dongda University.

Amao is different. After the prodigal son turned back, he laid the foundation from scratch. Even after two years of study, he still had to make a splash now.

In fact, Kazuma is a bit like asking Amao to come over and watch the Kohaku Uta battle. It might do wonders to relax his mood.

But Chiyoko didn't agree with anything.

As for Amao himself, he has always felt that getting admitted to Dongda University is a very serious matter and he must go all out.

Kazuma watched the singing program for two hours and finally saw Kobayashi Kazumasa's face, so he said: "Here you go, the famous song you composed. At least Kobayashi Kazumasa heard that I was going to sell songs, and he would definitely rush over as soon as possible." .”

This song "Sudden Love" was a single written by Kazuma for Kobayashi Kazumasa in the first half of the year. In the second half of the year, it was widely sung as the theme song of a love TV series.

It's a pity that Hippo always feels that the TV series this song is paired with is not fairy-like enough and does not have the flavor of "Tokyo Love Story".

I feel like Sonny Music temporarily found a love-themed TV series. After seeing that the TV series producers had a lot of generosity, I just used it.

I wonder if "Tokyo Love Story" will be born in this time and space.

Kazuma's memory, "Tokyo Love Story" has fundamentally influenced an entire generation's view of love.

If you think carefully about the influence of Japan on China at that time, Du Qiu and Mayumi influenced the dressing style and spouse selection standards of an entire generation. Later, popular films such as "Witness" and "The Story of Torajiro" directly laid the foundation for This set the tone for the people to be friendly to Japan.

At that time, almost everyone in China could sing "Spring in the Northland".

And "Tokyo Love Story" is already the tail end of this influence.

Later, the Chinese themselves created the largest industrial society in human history, and Japan's influence decreased.

No matter how strong the influence of the second dimension is, can it be as strong as Du Qiu? Back then, Du Qiu wore a windbreaker, which immediately became a hot item. At that time, the young man wanted to buy a windbreaker like this.

Kazuma listened to the "Sudden Love" he copied and recalled the "Tokyo Love Story" in his memory. He didn't know if he could still see Akana Rika's smile.

Rina Hinami looked at Kazuma: "Why do you look so serious, Kazuma?"

Kazuma: "I remembered what happened when I was writing this song."

While writing this song, Kazuma and the others went to the mountains near Sendai and soaked in hot springs, and a lot of things happened.

Hinami Rina actually doesn't know the complete truth about what happened. But she used her own method to understand Kazuma's expression now: "The god's son is still in Tokyo. I hope he can gain some insights when he listens to the master's song."

Kazuma nodded.

Hinami Rina is staying with Kazuma now because she agreed to celebrate the New Year together after watching Kohaku Uta Battle, and then go to the shrine together for the first time.

Although Hinami Rina's mother was quite critical of her going to Waseda University, she seemed to have given up recently and allowed Hinami to prepare for the exam.

Hinami Rina even wanted to live directly with Kazuma to concentrate on preparing for the exam.

The most staunch opponent of this idea is Chiyoko.

Now watching the Kohaku Uta Battle, Hinami Rina mentioned this idea again: "When I was reviewing at home, my mother and father were always uncooperative. My mother would even play Tchaikovsky, American Calling it Tchaikovsky must be helpful for the Waseda exam... I think, for the sake of efficient review, it is better to live at the master's side."

Chiyoko said before Kazuma could speak: "After all, this is Waseda University. Maybe Tchaikovsky really has a miraculous effect."

Rina Hinami looked at Chiyoko and was about to speak when Chiyoko said, "We have no free rooms here. If you want to live here, Hinami, you can only stay in Mikako's room. Tell Mikako about it and she will be happy to do so." Will you let me stay?"

Mikako: "Recently, my return to the dojo has always been a small-probability event, so it doesn't seem to be a problem if I make do with it. When I spend the night in the dojo, I just have a large shop to deal with it for one night, just like today."

Chiyoko raised her eyes and looked at her with an expression as if she wanted to kill her for her flesh.

Mikako didn't care. She reached out and picked up a mandarin orange and peeled it off smoothly.

Hinami Rina: "Then I'll live in Mikako-san's room until the exam is over?"

Mikako waved her hand: "You can stay here. You can use the things in my room as you like without asking me."

Chiyoko showed a gloomy expression.

However, Hinami Rina didn't tease Chiyoko. She directly stuck to Kazuma and whispered: "Then please ask the master to tutor me in English and mathematics."

Kazuma: "No problem."

Hinami Rina seemed very happy, she peeled an orange and fed the flesh to Kazuma.

When Kazuma was eating an orange, he seemed to lick a little bit of Hinami's fingertips.

At this time, the battle between the red and white songs was over. Mikako raised her hands in the air: "I've finished reading! There's still time before I visit the shrine for the first time, so I'll get some sleep first."

Chiyoko: "Don't sleep in the kotatsu! You'll catch a cold if you sleep in the kotatsu!"

"Yes, yes." Mikako responded without taking it seriously and lay down directly in the kotatsu.

Because she was lying down, Kazuma's leg directly touched her leg.

After all, we are all in the kotatsu, so it is normal for this kind of thing to happen. In fact, in addition to being Mikako opposite, Kazuma could also feel the legs of Hinami Rina who was sitting next to him.

Honami didn't like the kotatsu side, so she sat behind the square table by herself. From Kazuma's perspective, he could just see the curve of Honami's legs under the square table.

Where did Japanese girls come from this habit of wearing skirts despite being extremely cold? Honami wears skirts anyway, and uses super thick stockings to cope with the cold.

Anyway, Kazuma had fun watching it.

Honami noticed Kazuma's gaze and looked confused.

Kazuma wanted to laugh: "You have been seen completely, and you still have a confused look on your face."

"Ah, it's just being looked at. I'm used to this kind of thing. What I'm curious about is what are you thinking?" Honami said.

Kazuma: "I'm thinking about putting on long johns for all of you."

Rina Hinami was the first to object: "If we have pants under our skirts, the school will punish us."

Kazuma: "Then just wear pants."

"No, it's stipulated that you have to wear a school uniform on the back-to-school day." Hinami Rina sighed, "Girls in Japanese school uniforms don't have pants. If I want to wear pants, I have to buy a pair of boys' pants. Only bad girls can wear them." I will wear the boy’s school uniform.”

Well, Kazuma finally discovered that the reason why Japanese girls wear skirts when they freeze to death is because their school uniforms don’t have pants.

At this time Honami said: "Would you like to try the thickened stockings developed by our Nanjo Foundation? They are quite warm for me. Although they are not as warm as pants, they are almost the same. However, the disadvantages are also obvious: they will show Thick legs.”

Kazuma couldn't help but take a few more glances at the curves under Honami's table. It turned out that the stockings were super thick.

No wonder Honami has been sitting at the square table and doesn't feel cold at all.

At this time, Tamamo suddenly stood up: "It's almost time to prepare to go to the shrine for the first time. Anyone who wants to change into a kimono can pass on the kimono here. If you wear a kimono, you don't have to worry about keeping warm."

Chiyoko stood up: "Well, I'll wear a kimono."

She looked at Hinami Rina with undisguised eyes.

In fact, Kazuma has told Chiyoko many times that Hinami may not want to compete with her for Amao, but Chiyoko feels that it is necessary to be on guard against others.

Hinami Rina sighed: "I'll forget it, I'll just go and pay my respects later, that's fine."

Kazuma: "You didn't bring a kimono?"

"No. When I was at home, my mother would dress me up every time I went to shrines for the first time. Then our family didn't go to a nearby temple for the first time to go to shrines. Instead, we set off more than an hour in advance to go to the famous shrine. Go to the shrine. When I go there, I will meet many great people in the entertainment industry, which will be very troublesome."

Hinami Rina said and smiled at Kazuma. This smile made Kazuma feel like a fleeting flower in the mirror.

Hinami Rina stood up, came to the TV, and began to turn the knob to change the channel.

Honami said: "Recently, there are models that can use remote controls. I'll see if I can get one for Kazuma."

Kazuma nodded directly, but Chiyoko said: "As long as the TV can be watched, it's not much trouble to change the channel now, so let's leave it at that."

Honami looked at Chiyoko and said, "This TV has very few channels to choose from. The latest TVs now have dozens of channels, and the knobs are not enough."

Chiyoko: "Our family doesn't need that kind of thing. Anyway, our main activity is going to school, so we can put aside the things we enjoy first."

Kazuma actually wanted a color TV that could receive dozens of channels and change channels with a remote control.

However, Chiyoko killed Kazuma's thoughts with one sentence. She said: "Those who can receive dozens of channels are cable TV. We can't afford the cable TV fees at all. Even NHK's tax, we can't afford it." It took a lot of effort to hand it in.”

Kazuma shut up decisively.

At this time, Amao came out of his room and asked Chiyoko: "Why is it so lively?"

"Ah, Tamamo said that everyone should wear kimonos to visit the shrine for the first time. How about you enter now, Amao?"

Amao nodded: "Not bad. I just finished a set of papers today and am working on the answers."

Kazuma: "If you don't understand anything, just ask."

"I will." Amao nodded vigorously.

After saying that, he quickly went to the kitchen to get a glass of water and went straight back to his cabin.

Chiyoko seemed very worried about Amao's condition, but she didn't dare to ask more questions.

Soon, the Kiryu family was ready to visit the shrine for the first time.

Qingliu wore a kimono that looked super expensive, and it looked like her whole person had a different feeling.

Tamamo is still wearing the same dark kimono with flying crane pattern, but with a few layers of feather fabric added, she looks more graceful and luxurious than before.

She and Qingliu stood together like a mother going out with her daughter in costume.

Amid everyone's exclamations, twelve o'clock passed quietly, and the time entered 1982.

Hema's family went out to pay their respects for the first time.

However, because everything near Kiryu's house was almost demolished, they didn't meet many people until they reached the station.

When we arrived at the station, the crowds became dense.

When visiting Geshi District for the first time, the first choice is naturally Emperor Shakten.

There is a line in the national comedy "The Story of Torajiro" that says, "The water of Shakten raised me up." To the people of Kazushibamata, Shakten was such an existence.

When Kiryu's family visited the shrine, Kazuma made a wish, hoping that this year's candidates would be able to successfully enter the school they want to go to.

Chiyoko is probably the one who makes the most effort in making a wish. She washes her hands meticulously and then makes every step of the wish perfect.

Kazuma guessed that her wish was that Amao could pass the exam.

**

A few days passed quickly after visiting the shrine for the first time, and it was directly the day before the joint entrance examination.

Kazuma couldn't help but think back to the day before his joint entrance exam last year. He felt like he didn't pay much attention to it and just took the exam casually and passed it.

But today Chiyoko got up early and prepared the equipment for the candidates of Kiryu Dojo.

Kazuma always felt that she would check Amao's pencil case after a while.

Amao himself seemed very calm at the time.

Kazuma asked him: "How was it?"

He gave Kazuma a confident smile: "No problem. After all, the joint entrance exam only consists of basic questions, so you can pass it easily."

Kazuma smiled and said: "Check your pencil case carefully, I'm afraid there may be any omissions due to Chiyoko's frizzy hair."

When Chiyoko heard what Kazuma said, she immediately protested: "What's wrong with me! I'm just a little uneasy!"

Kazuma smiled and said, "That's what you call being impetuous. It's just the joint entrance exam, there's no way you can fail it."

Chiyoko still looked very worried: "I think the joint entrance examination can eliminate many people..."

Amao smiled and said: "Those are all those who came here to hang out. It is mainly these people who are eliminated from the joint entrance examination."

Kazuma patted Chiyoko on the back: "Look at his confident expression, there is nothing to worry about. As a person who has experienced it, I tell you, for things like exams, if you feel confident that you have it, then you really have it."

Chiyoko was unconvinced and said, "What about Mikako's kind?"

Kazuma laughed dumbly: "Mikako is a special case. Can ordinary people compare with Mikako?"

Chiyoko curled her lips and looked at Amao seriously: "Take the test well, it's up to you."

Amao nodded: "Leave it to me. When you come back from the exam, we can have a celebration banquet."

Basically, you can estimate your scores after taking the joint entrance examination because there are many multiple-choice questions.

That's why Amao said "celebration party tonight".

Kazuma patted Amao on the shoulder.

At this time, he remembered that there was a candidate named Hinami Rina in his family. Hinami Rina had been staying at Kiryu's house since New Year's Eve.

So Kazuma hurried to find Hinami Rina and found her in the dojo.

She is practicing swinging her sword.

Kazuma: "Why, are you suddenly keen on learning kendo?"

"Because I found that practicing swinging the sword recently can calm me down." Hinami Rina replied, "When swinging the sword, you don't have to think about anything, just look ahead. Don't think about anything, just swing the sword to where it is. Just the specified number of times.”

Kazuma came to the front of Hinami Ricai: "Then do you want to try a fight with me?"

"No, it's impossible to win." Hinami said coquettishly, "The biggest problem with learning swordsmanship here is that you are too strong, master! I fought you a few times, and my confidence was completely destroyed."

Kazuma glanced at Hinami's kendo level, and wanted to say that this actually had its benefits. After all, Kazuma's experience level was very high, and it could quickly improve Hinami's kendo level. But Hinami probably wouldn't believe this.

Kazuma: "If you can't keep up with my level of swordsmanship, you may not be able to have a heart-to-heart relationship with me with a sword in the future."

Hinami Rina smiled and said: "There is no need for that kind of thing between men and women. Look, master, you can understand my thoughts as long as you hug me, right?"

"I don't understand." Kazuma denied decisively.

Hinami Rina chuckled: "It's obvious. Every time I'm held by you, master, I feel that my thoughts can be conveyed more or less."

Open up the topic with Ma Cha: "How do you feel about the joint entrance examination?"

"Hmph, for an exam like the joint entrance exam, you can just take it casually. People who can't even pass the joint entrance exam are not qualified to compete on the same stage." Rina Hinami said this, and her words were quite domineering.

Kazuma sneered: "Don't fail in the joint examination and run back crying."

Hinami Rina said sternly: "If I fail the joint entrance examination, then I will obey my mother's wishes and join the entertainment industry. I hope you won't mind it, master, and come to compose music for me."

Kazuma snorted: "I won't write songs for a guy with your singing skills."

"Oh, you are so strict! If you write a song for me, I will give you benefits." Hinami Rina said with a smile.

Kazuma looked at her body in the kendo uniform. Even the kendo uniform could not suppress her curves.

However, when Kazuma thought about it, none of the girls in his family could suppress their curves with the kendo uniform - except for Haruyu.

Even Chiyoko can at least be included in the range of promising futures.

As for Seiryu, it seems to make no difference whether it is a kendo uniform or not. From another perspective, it is also impossible to suppress.

Without curves, the kendo uniform cannot be suppressed!

Hinami Rina looked at Kazuma and suddenly snickered: "Master, are you thinking of something rude? Do you want to take off my kendo uniform and do something interesting?"

Kazuma said solemnly: "The kendo uniform smells so bad, there's no way anyone would have anything wrong with it."

Hinami Rina snickered and said: "I discovered it. If you practice swordsmanship well, you can attack the master in this aspect. It seems that I have to take it seriously."

You'd better be more serious. You are the worst swordsman among all the members right now, and you can easily be used as a breakthrough point.

At this time, Hinami Rina suddenly said: "By the way, I just took a look at Amao's review materials. How should I put it, I feel that his preparation level is weaker than I thought."

Kazuma didn't expect Hinami Rina to be talking about business at this time.

"What does it mean to have weak preparation for the exam?" Kazuma asked.

Nichinan Rina shrugged: "That's the literal meaning. He struggled with many of the basic questions that I thought were basic."

Kazuma sighed: "After all, before he met me, he was still a bad boy, and he was the kind of guy who was regarded as a reserve army by the Yakuza. He just started to pick up the previous subjects when he turned back as a prodigal son, and started from scratch. Learn high school stuff.”

In fact, Amao also learned a lot of junior high school knowledge from scratch. Chiyoko was preparing for high school entrance exams at that time, so she helped him a lot.

Hinami Rina looked at Kazuma with a serious face, thought about it and said, "If Amao fails this time..."

Kazuma: "Then let him live here and prepare for the exam from scratch. I never thought that a prodigal son could get into the top university in Tokyo in one go."

Hinami smiled and said: "You are talking about others. Aren't you also a prodigal son who suddenly became energetic? Now the teachers at North High School regard you as an example to encourage others. They say that you are a sports special admissions student. It took three years for me to suddenly work hard and finally get admitted to Dongda University, which is incredible."

Kazuma thought to himself that there is a reason why I can do this. I have nine years of compulsory education on my back, okay?

Nichinan continued: "However, the one who has been used as an example recently is Miss Mikako. She was also a special admissions student for sports. She worked hard only in the third year of high school. As a result, she was admitted to Sophia University, and then she appeared on a program and scolded Sophia University to death. professor."

Kazuma: "I'm not scolded to death, Chie Kazuo is not dead."

"It's not bad for a teacher."

Kazuma cleared his throat and said to Ninan: "If Amao fails the exam, I will support him to continue preparing for the exam."

Nichinan Rina smiled and said: "But if Amao doesn't pass the exam this year, your financial pressure will suddenly be reduced. Does the master hope that Amao can't pass the exam this year?"

If Amao didn't pass the exam this year, then in March he would just have to pay Kazuma's own tuition and Haru's pitch tuition. That's right.

But Kazuma never expected that from the beginning.

He looked at Hinami seriously and said loudly: "What are you talking about! I have never expected that kind of thing. This is the first time I visit the shrine this year, and my wish is that all of you in the dojo can be admitted to the school of your choice this year. "

Hinami Rina bowed to Kazuma with a serious face: "I'm sorry, my apprentice knows I was wrong."

It's a good attitude to admit your mistakes.

As soon as Kazuma thought this, Hinami straightened up and said to Kazuma: "Come punish me for making mistakes, master!"

...I shouldn't think too highly of her.

By the way, both candidates from the Kiryu Dojo successfully passed the joint examination.
