Tokyo life starting with painting

The next day, Saturday.

The Higashino family has returned to normal life, but Higashinoji is obviously much busier than usual.

After all, in addition to "The Ring", there is also the new mission "The Lonely Gourmet".

In the fourth episode of "Midnight Ring", the plot has entered an urgent stage. After investigation, Asakawa Reiko finally learned that she would die in seven days after watching the video tape, and she took a photo with her camera, and the death sentence emerged in the photo. Xiangnori further confirms this point - according to Japanese legend, the appearance of a dying person in objects will be distorted.

Repressed fear struck. In this case, Asakawa Reiko turned to her ex-husband Takayama Ryuji for help.

It's still the same out-of-context, crisp and depressing plot.

Coupled with the countdown to the time of death at the top of the comic, it is like pressing people's heads into the comic, making them feel pure fear.

The response of "The Ring" is getting better and better, and it has now become a popular comic among young people. Almost every week, you can see young people rushing in to buy the weekly "Cold" in convenience stores.

Most of the young people had dark circles under their eyes, but they were still very excited. When they opened "Cold", their movements were trembling, but they were very excited, and they looked like they had taken some forbidden drugs.

After painting "Midnight Bell", the next step is "The Lonely Gourmet".

A very simple realistic painting style, striving to restore the Tokyo street scene. Inokashira Goro is walking hurriedly on the street. He came here in response to the needs of his clients.

Halfway through "The Lonely Gourmet", it was already noon.

Higashinoji heated up lunch and cleaned up. At about 2:30 in the afternoon, Higashinoji started working at his desk again. Then he started cooking at 6pm. After dinner at 7pm, he and Chihaya Higashino watched TV for a while, and then continued painting. comics

Saturday and Sunday passed by in such a busy life.

On Monday, after breakfast, Higashinoji cheered up and went to Kitajuku Private High School.

The weather was not bad, there was still a bit of coolness in the morning air, and it looked like another smooth day.

but

"What are you doing?" Higashino glanced at the cheerleading team composed of female students who had formed a square formation at the entrance of Kitajuku, and then looked at the banner they had pulled up - 'Congratulations to Mr. Higashino for winning the Tokyo Youth Art Prize Double Gold Prize' .

They wore short skirts, cheering balls, and chanted the slogan, "Come on, come on, Higashinoji," and they looked decent.

There were students passing by, and they couldn't help but look at these cheerleaders a few more times, with envy on their faces, as if they were lamenting how Higashinoji was so lucky to have people cheering for him so early in the morning.

To be honest, only these young boys would be envious.

In Higashinoji's opinion, this thing is simply a torture to his face. Even though he is thick-skinned, he is still a little unable to withstand it.

"This is probably caused by the cheerleading department themselves."

Just when Higashinoji wanted to stand still and observe the situation, a voice came from next to him.

"President Kijo?" Higashinoji turned around, only to find that Aiko Kijo was standing behind him at some point.

"Congratulations, Higashino-san, for winning the Tokyo Youth Art Prize Double Gold Prize."

Aiko Kijo nodded, her words full of appreciation: "Higashino-kun, the cheerleading club you see now is actually preparing for the Kitajuku Art Festival, but they can't find suitable slogan training."

"I just happened to win a double gold bounty, so they use me as training material?"

Higashinoji picked up what she didn't say, and thought to himself, isn't this the same as the teachers and schools in China who stipulate that they should watch a certain movie, a certain book, and write down their thoughts after watching it?

But speaking of it, there are really many clubs in the North Gym, and they even have such a messy club as the cheerleading team.

But combined with the background of the times, Higashino found that it is actually quite understandable.

After all, Japanese high schools in this period even had activities such as campus beauty pageants, and they were very common. Cheerleading was actually quite common.

However, Higashinoji smiled again when he thought of Japan's 'beautiful women who only come across once in three thousand years'.

"Yes. But basically everyone in the school knows that you won the double gold medal, but you don't know. On the day of your award ceremony, the school and teachers semi-forced the students to watch the Asahi Shimbun award ceremony at eight o'clock in the evening."

Aiko Kijo answered with an explanation, and at the same time she looked at Higashinoji strangely: "Why do you feel like Higashino-kun, you are quite unhappy?"

Isn’t this the case for all adolescent boys? When I see short skirts, I think about thighs, and all I can think about is showing off.

So isn't this situation something that many high school boys dream about?

"No, am I not happy about it?" Higashino replied cheerfully, then turned around and his face turned dark.

You want him to be happy with this, but he won’t be happy either?

Being crowded here so early in the morning, and even dancing to promote it, I guess only those little boys like it.

He shook his head, pretended not to see the cheerleaders and walked towards the school.

Finally bypassing the cheerleading team, Higashinoji thought he would have a stable life today.

Then

Higashinoji was called out five or six times today by various female students.

As for what else they can do? It's nothing more than a confession.

This made Go Yuanzhong look envious. He patted Higashinoji on the shoulder and said, "When will you teach me how to draw? I will learn how to pick up girls from you."

In response to this, Higashinoji also smiled and patted the other person's shoulder, saying, 'Then you are probably not very good, you are not as good-looking as me.'

Yes.

After all, the good foundation left by the original owner is here. Mr. Higashino has a handsome face and belongs to the type of boy who is particularly good-looking. In addition, he has won a double gold medal from the Tokyo Youth Art Award. He is one of the most famous in the school for the time being. So It is normal for girls to chase you.

But these girls are just having fun at most, and Higashinoji has long passed the age of "playing" - he had a few dates in college in his previous life, and made the girls cry several times.

So Higashinoji doesn't plan to play around anymore. Next time he talks about a girlfriend, it's almost time to get serious - at least not with a tablet.

Besides, I have time to play with these girls, wouldn’t it be nice to draw a few more pages of The Ring?

You must know that if you draw another chapter of Midnight Bell, it will be officially released as a stand-alone book.

At that time, there will be another sum of money, and the Higashino family's finances will no longer be tight.

In short, all kinds of things happen. After procrastinating for a long time, Higashinoji finally arrived in the afternoon.

Needless to say, wood carving, grinding and polishing, Higashino strives to make it the best.

I spend my time drawing comics, going to school, making wood carvings after school, and drawing comics. This cycle gradually passes.

While time is passing like this, the Hokuyi School Art Festival has arrived as scheduled.

Brother Xuefeng will save the leader update for next time. Thanks to the Fire Pigs, the Imperial Guards, the Geckos on the third floor, and the Black Cat Deer for their rewards! Thank you so much!
