Tokyo life starting with painting

"What?! Higashinoji-san won the gold medal in the student category of the Youth Art Award? Fukushima Madoka-san won the bronze medal?"

Ryoko Okano stood up from her seat after calling.

Because there was so much movement on her side, the teachers in the entire office glanced at her, but when they heard the content of Okano Ryoko's words, they showed a look of surprise and congratulated Ryoko Okano.

Kita Gym has always preached to the outside world that arts and sports promote the school, so these teachers also know a little bit about the Tokyo Youth Art Prize.

But what they least expected was that the students under the guidance of Okano Ryoko this year were so successful that they directly won the Tokyo Youth Painting Bounty Award. As for Fukushima Madoka's Bronze Award? To be honest, this is actually a good result, but there is really nothing special to mention under the gold reward.

After all, in history, there are only a handful of students from Hokugi Junior High School who have won gold medals at the Tokyo Youth Art Awards. Counting this time, it should be the third time.

The kind where students who win gold medals can be interviewed in newspapers.

The student named Higashinoji has brought glory to the school, so of course they want to congratulate him.

As for the adult gold reward? Then this is not within the scope of the teachers' consideration.

After all, the annual Tokyo Youth Art Prize Adult Bounty Prize winners can appear on TV. That is no longer a world that high school students can access, and it has nothing to do with teachers like them.

"Yes, yes, thank you for your hard work. Well, I will inform Higashino-san right now. Okay. The award ceremony is tomorrow night? Okay, okay, I understand."

Ryoko Okano was in a good mood and finished the phone call with a smile. Then she greeted the teachers who congratulated her one by one.

"Everyone, I have something to do and go to the studio, so I'll take my leave now."

Naturally, all the teachers said they understood.

It's normal to be busy informing students and the principal.

Gangno Ryoko opened the door directly and walked towards the club activity building.

Maybe it's because people feel refreshed when happy events happen, but even this road they usually walk on is particularly pleasing to Ryoko Okano's eyes.

After all, it was a golden reward!

Although it is only a gold prize for the student group and not the adult group! But that’s also a golden reward!

This is the first student to win the gold medal in the student category since Ryoko Okano joined the company! Memorial in every sense of the word.

Moreover, Madoka Fukushima's results are pretty good, and she won the bronze medal, which is also something worthy of praise.

She was in a good mood and walked more briskly.

Most girls like to think about the future, and so does Ryoko Okano.

She is already imagining that Higashinoji will go to college after that, and maybe he can win the gold medal in the adult category of the Tokyo Youth Art Award and appear on TV to win glory for her.

At that time, maybe I, Toyoshi's instructor, will be able to be interviewed by a TV station?

A smile appeared on Gangno Ryoko's lips, and she quickly arrived at the door of the studio.

She knocked on the door, then opened it and went in. She looked around with a smile on her face. Then she was stunned and asked Konoe Ryoka: "Where is Higashino-san?"

Yes, there was no sign of Higashinoji in the studio. The easel next to Konoe Ryoka was empty, and there was no sign that anyone had been there.

"Higashi, Higashino-san, he should still be carving wood carvings." Konoe Ryoka was stunned by Okano Ryoko's sudden question and opened her mouth to answer.

Oh—I see, there is such a thing as wood carving.

Only then did Ryoko Okano think of Higashino's promise to make a wood carving exhibit for the student union some time ago: "Really? Then Konoe-san, can you call Higashino-kun over? I have something to announce."

"Oh, good."

Konoe Ryoka nodded slightly.

She knew which classroom Higashino was in, Higashino told her.

But why did the teacher suddenly want to find Higashino-san? And he looks quite happy

Konoe Ryoka couldn't figure it out, but she still walked out of the door with small steps and walked to the third floor obediently.

"The empty classroom on the far right on the third floor"

Konoe Ryoka murmured to herself, as if to make sure she remembered correctly, and walked towards the corridor on the right side of the third floor.

Soon, Konoe Ryoka had already reached the door. To her surprise, the door of the empty classroom was opened directly without being locked at all.

She hesitated for a moment before knocking on the door politely and said softly: "Sorry to bother you, Higashino-san."

Then she looked up and saw the wooden eggshell that was fixed on the base and had been polished extremely smooth.

This was probably a broken eggshell. The vertical lower half was intact, but the upper half was shattered.

The wooden square base is decorated with carved eggshells and feathers.

The carving was so detailed that Konoe Ryoka couldn't take her eyes away from some of the wood grains and details.

Too beautiful

Konoe Ryoka thought that Higashinoji really knew how to carve wood.

But it was obvious that the wood carving was not finished yet. Higashino seemed to be preparing to carve something into the eggshell, holding a hammer and arc knife and tapping it time and time again.

With this wooden sculpture at the center, the ground is littered with wood chips and sandpapered wood powder.

In the corner of the classroom, there are also sawdust, wood powder and other garbage that Higashinoji swept away with a broom.

It stacks up quite high.

Higashinoji had actually noticed Konoe Ryoka a long time ago, but he was doing the job he was doing just right, so he didn't let go.

After everything was done, Higashinoji stopped and raised his head: "It's Konoe-san. I'm sorry, I was a little busy just now. What can I do for you?"

He walked over and asked with a smile.

"Oh, oh, Mr. Okano has something to ask you." Konoe Ryoka came back to her senses and said to Higashinoji in front of her.

"You want to see me if you have something to do?" Seeing her innocent look, Touyoshi laughed twice: "Do you know what it is?"

"I just want to see you if I have something to do."

Konoe Ryoka shook her head.

Don't know what's wrong?

Tonoji held his chin.

There is only one recent thing that comes to my mind - the Tokyo Youth Painting Awards judging event.

Could this be the case?

Higashikata thought for a moment and took out his phone and took a look.

The "Tokyo" he used to participate in the adult category of the Tokyo Youth Art Award was not participated in the name of Kitajuku, but in his own name.

Therefore, Ryoko Okano should be notified of the winning status of the student group.

As for the award-winning status of the adult category, the Japan Art Education Association should notify him personally.

He just took out his phone, and then—

The phone rang.

Um?

Does this mean Cao Cao is here?

Is it a gold reward?

Higashinoji's mind was wandering, and he said to Konoe Ryoka, "Wait a moment, I will answer the phone and go to the studio," and then answered the phone.

"Hello? Are you Mr. Higashino Tsukasa who submitted an article for the Tokyo Youth Art Prize?"

coming

Higashinoji regained his energy and immediately replied:

"it's me."
