I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Arima Zezong immediately became anxious.

"Didn't you see that I was holding him down and beating him at the beginning? Then I ran out of energy and was knocked down by him. It must be because I was too excited last night and didn't sleep well. I don't have much energy today!"

"Is that so?" Imagawa Kashiwagi said with a smile, but his smile always gave people a weird feeling.

"It's boring when you talk like this."

Arima Zezong felt as if he had been punched in the air, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart. He looked at Higashino Yu: "Higashiya, tell me, at least I am not a loser in swordsmanship, right?"

Higashino Yu, who was taking off his kendo uniform and changing back into his school uniform, smiled helplessly and nodded.

"Arima's swordsmanship is indeed not weaker than Tetsuo Sugatani's, but there is a huge difference in physical fitness."

Arima Zesong received Higashino Yu's approval and just felt a little more comfortable. He looked at Imagawa Kashiwagi and said, "See, I told you before. When it comes to swordsmanship, I, Sky Blue Ittōryu Arima, am not weaker than anyone else."

"Okay, I approve of you."

Imagawa Kashiwagi smiled and nodded. He also quarreled with Arima Norimune because he lost the match and looked in a bad mood. Now it seems that he has recovered, and naturally he doesn't need to be like that just now.

Dong Yeyu quickly changed his clothes. To him, the weight of this protective gear was no different from that of an ordinary person wearing a shirt. However, it was true that it was not very comfortable because of the layers of wrapping.

"Higashino-kun, your sword."

When Imagawa Kashiwagi saw that he had finished changing his clothes, he returned the knife in his arms to him.

"Sorry to trouble you." Dong Yeyu thanked him with a smile, took the knife and prepared to leave the locker room.

"Higashiya, wait a moment."

Arima Zezong stopped Higashinoyu who was about to leave, then ran to his own cabinet and rummaged through it, finding a black sword bag.

The material is like Oxford cloth, which is thicker and full of texture.

"As I said before, I gave it to you. I bought an extended sword bag at the time, which should be able to hold it."

Arima Norimune handed the sword bag to Higashinoyu, and at the same time, he came closer and asked softly.

"Dongye, do you have a certificate for holding a knife? If not, try to find a safe place to store it. The gun knife law is very strict, and it will be tragic if you are caught."

I didn't expect Arima to be careful sometimes.

Dong Yeyu looked at him and asked, "How long does it usually take to get this certificate?"

"How long? You can't say for sure. Those tax thieves in the government may ask you to hand over this information and that information, and they also need some messy certificates, signatures, etc."

"I have never applied for it, but I have heard that the process is complicated and cumbersome."

"What if someone helps?"

"If someone does."

Arima Zezong pondered for a moment, glanced at Higashino Yu, suddenly realized, and showed a teasing smile: "President, right? That shouldn't take long."

Imagawa Kashiwagi listened on the side and saw that the two people were talking about something vague. He was a little curious, but he didn't ask any questions.

The three of them talked and laughed and walked out, with Aruma taking the lead: "Let's go, let's take you two to have a good meal to celebrate today's competition."

Dong Yeyu originally wanted to say that he was going to work today, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was a bit disappointing.

Arima and Imagawa are really good friends as they are nice people.

Moreover, I have a lot of savings now, so it won’t have any impact if I miss one day of work.

But I want to tell Miss Miyamizu about asking for leave today.

The schedule of the Duke Xiaolin's residence is usually decided the night before.

She had an out-of-body experience last night and was sent to the hospital. Ms. Miyamizu must have considered her inability to work today when scheduling her shift.

Of course, to be on the safe side, it’s better to say yes and go to the restaurant to collect your salary for three days and one hour this week.

Higashino Yu thought of this and said to Arima Norimune: "I have to go to the place where I work first to get this week's salary. You go first, and I will call you then."

"Okay, I'll contact you then."

While the three of them were talking, the president of the Kendo Club came over to say hello.

The president has regular features, short black hair and some curly hair, thick eyebrows, deep eye sockets, brown eyes, and a slightly brown skin color. Judging from his appearance, he seems to have Ainu ancestry.

He is not short but not tall either. He is over 1.75 meters tall and has a strong body and well-proportioned muscles.

"Hello, I am Kazuji Yasuhara, president of the Kendo Club." He greeted Higashino Yu and the others, and then looked at Higashino Yu.

"The fight just now was very exciting. I see that Higashino-kun is very skilled in swordsmanship. I wonder if you have any thoughts on joining the Kendo Club?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Arima Norimune: "Higashino-kun should have heard about the past history and rich resources of our school's kendo club, right?"

Arima Norimune then enthusiastically introduced the glorious history of winning ten championships in the history of our school's kendo club.

Then, like a salesman, he explained all the favorable facilities and conditions of the kendo club.

Finally, he gave serious advice: "Dongye, if you achieve success in kendo, it will have a very good assisting effect on some of your future career plans."

Arima Norimune really hopes that Higashino Yu can join the club, but he still has not given up on his dream of the Three Swordsmen of Tachibana.

In other words, after encountering something, he was even more looking forward to this fantasy becoming a reality.

And although Higashinoyu defeated Tetsuo Sugatani this time and saved the face of the three of them, it is hard to say what his situation in the Kendo Club will be like in the future.

After all, I am one of the top offenders, so many seniors and seniors probably have a bad impression of me.

Yasuhara Kazuji glanced at Arima Norimune approvingly, wondering why he hadn't noticed before that this slightly wretched member actually had the talent of a lobbyist.

"It is indeed what Arima-kun said. What do you think of Higashino-kun?" He looked at Higashinoyu with some expectation.

"Sorry, your club is really good, but my family is poor and I have to work part-time to make ends meet after school. I don't have time to participate in club activities, so I can't join the Kendo club."

Dong Yeyu declined with a smile.

"Well, that's really a pity."

An Yuan and Si sighed regretfully, feeling a little disappointed.

To others, the Kendo Club seems glamorous, with ten Jade Dragon Banner champions in history, but in fact it has been almost seventy years since Tachibana High School was established.

In recent years, I haven't won much in kendo competitions. Winning awards basically depends on luck. The last time I won the Jade Dragon Banner was more than ten years ago.

Tachibana High School has no shortage of high-quality students. This situation is mainly due to learning problems.

There are basically no third-year high school members in the Kendo Club.

After all, Tachibana High School is a private high school for the purpose of further education, and everyone wants to get involved in Tokyo University.

Generally, by the senior year of high school, there are basically no students participating in club activities and competitions.

Therefore, in many cases only first- and second-year high school students compete. If they try to beat other students who are in their third year of high school and have more experience competing in the competition, they will naturally not be able to beat them.

Tetsuo Sugatani is already considered a powerful member in the club.

Just now, Kazuji Yasuhara went to see Tetsuo Sugatani's condition and found that his injury seemed a bit serious. He didn't know if he would be able to make it to the Yulong Banner competition in August.

That's why I came to persuade Higashino Yu to join the Kendo Club to fill the vacancy.

It’s not that they don’t care about the physical condition of club members.

Injuries in the sport of kendo are really common. Students often get injured during training before a competition and are unable to participate in the competition.

As for the first graders playing against the second graders, the following are guilty of the same thing.

No matter what kind of sports, as long as it is involved in competition, then food is the original sin.

Of course, the more important reason is that Tetsuo Sugaya made some sense in trying to deal with Arima Norimune at the beginning, but later it seemed too much when it affected Higashino Yu.

Even if you win, you will feel like you will be punished, but if you lose now, you will be a pure clown.

It's just that Higashino Yu doesn't seem to have any plans to join the Kendo Club at the moment.

Although Yasuhara Kazuji was disappointed, he did not persist. After all, not one person could change the outcome of a kendo competition.

"If Higashino-kun changes his mind in the future, you can come to the Kendo Club at any time."

He said some kind words and bowed slightly to salute, and Dongye Yu returned the salute: "Definitely."

Just as he finished speaking, he raised his head and saw two familiar figures coming out of the women's locker room. At a glance, they were Jinguji Hiiragi and Asami Sanae.

Miss Moon Witch shouldn't be a member of the Kendo Club with her appearance, so Jinguji Hiiragi is a member of the Kendo Club?

Speaking of which, when I first came in, I did seem to see her practicing her sword in the corner.

Higashino Yu originally wanted to contact other demon slayers through Jinguji Temple, so that he could kill monsters and make a lot of money!

Although I asked for contact information before, I can't just try to find trouble and call someone just to say: "Are you there?"

If you start now, you will definitely be a clown!

Thinking of this, Higashino Yu asked Kazuji Yasuhara who was about to leave: "Excuse me, Senior Yasuhara, can I be a nominal member? Participating in club activities is casual."

"Named member?"

An Yuan and Si hesitated for two seconds, feeling a little embarrassed.

He was worried that Higashino Yu's name would cause dissatisfaction among other members.

But I thought that I would be retiring soon after entering my senior year of high school. If I could win the Jade Dragon Banner Award this year, and if I could be admitted to Tokyo University, I would graduate in the gold watch category.

He thought about it and felt that if he made it clear, not many people would object, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay."

After saying that, he immediately asked someone to get Zhang's application form for joining the club. After Higashinoyu filled out the application form, Yasuhara Kazuji originally wanted to take him to familiarize himself with the Kendo Club dojo, but Higashinoyu declined.

There are a lot of things to do today. I will go to the restaurant to collect my salary later, and I will go to dinner with Arima and the others to celebrate.

Finally, I have to buy a suitable gift, go home and visit the tree demon to thank the tree demon.

If you have enough time, you have to go to Hisitsawa and see if you can find the tanuki boy that day.

What a time management guru.

Dong Yeyu felt helpless that he had to travel around at such a young age.

Yasuhara and Tsukasa originally wanted to say something, but then Asami Sanae and Jinguji Hiiragi came over.

"Your Highness." Higashino Yu first greeted Asami Sanae, and she nodded slightly: "Wonderful game, but why didn't you say your name just now, my loyal knight."

Isn't it a bit too embarrassing for you to ask me to say that kind of thing in front of so many people?

With a smile on his face, Higashino Yu was sweating a little when facing the strange looks from Kazuji Yasuhara and the members passing by around him.

After taking it, I stopped drinking Red Bull. My stomach felt uncomfortable all night.

Update in the evening as usual.
