Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

Throwing away the entangled club managers, he came to the third floor of the school building again.

West Side, Fine Arts Department

Looking at the team that was still the same as two days ago, Kato Yusuke couldn't help sighing.

It was because I expected such a situation that I thought of going to the baseball club to participate in the assessment first, but in the end, even this goal was not achieved.

Since he didn't expect to be surrounded, in order to avoid trouble, the baseball club had to be put on hold temporarily, so he chose to come to the art department first.

But the popularity of this art department is too high, right? ?

Kato Yusuke was a little speechless. Unlike the previous self who was indifferent to everything except making money, he has now visited all the clubs in the school.

There has never been a society like the Fine Arts Department, where there is an endless stream of people applying for admission.

Simply inexplicable

After thinking about it, he still walked to the end of the line and started to line up.

Time passed little by little, and outside the corridor window, the sun gradually slanted westward.

People kept coming in from the door of the art department, and people kept coming out.

Most of the people came out with a sad face, only a very few people had happy smiles on their faces, and all of them were girls.

When passing by, Kato Yusuke also heard the content of their conversation.

"That's great! This way, I can participate in the ministry with Sawamura-san!"

"Really, congratulations~"

Sawamura Spencer Eiri

One of the two beautiful girls of the private Toyonozaki Academy, a topical character that friends A and B used to discuss in class.

Speaking of which, the two did seem to have mentioned that this girl was the ace of the art department.

Glancing at the crowd in line, his eyes flashed with enlightenment.

"Adolescent pig-headed boys are really simple creatures."

Made meaningless thoughts.

"The girls you dream of are like the moon in the night sky. No matter where you go, they follow, but you can't touch them, and you can't grasp the sense of distance. It wasn't until the end that I realized that it was just a distant dream. and dreams.”

"As long as you say hello a little, you'll be cranky. If you text each other, you'll still have a lot of trouble in your heart. When you receive a call from the other party, you'll smirk at the caller record all day."

Ask but can't, give up but can't, get but don't hesitate, maybe sometimes not getting it is a kind of beauty.

Thinking about whether there are some or not, the team gradually lined up to the end.

"Name?"

"Yusuke Kato, one year E class."

A scrutinizing gaze stared at his face for a moment, and the girl who seemed to be a member pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"Why do you want to join the art department?"

It's more like an interrogation than an interrogation.

"No particular reason."

"Huh?!" The girl suddenly became vigilant and said again: "That's what you said, but you must be thinking of "wanting to get close to Sawamura-san" again, right? "

Kato Yusuke smiled, "Blowing a pond of spring water (Chinese)?"

"Hey, what are you talking about?" the girl asked in confusion. The boy in front of him suddenly said something he couldn't understand, and the syllables were very strange, similar to the ancient poems taught in Mandarin class.

"It's nothing." Kato Yusuke shook his head, "You should have an entrance examination, let me participate in that."

It's also not polite to speak, but his good intentions are reserved only for those who deserve it.

"嘁." The girl pointed to the inside and said unhappily, "Then go in, the person in charge of the assessment is inside."

So Kato Yusuke raised his foot and walked towards the door. When he was about to step into the art room, the girl warned again as if he had remembered something.

"By the way, remember not to walk around after entering,

Especially the second art preparation room by the window is absolutely not allowed to enter! "

"Second art preparation room?" Kato Yusuke paused, "Isn't that where the teacher prepares teaching materials for class, what's the problem?"

"The teacher used the first art preparation room, and the second art preparation room is now Sawamura's exclusive studio. Unrelated people are prohibited from entering. Just remember this."

The girl with glasses explained impatiently.

"Privilege...?" Kato Yusuke muttered.

At this moment, an unfeeling electronic female voice rang out from her ears.

"Ding, trigger a hidden event."

"[There is a big problem with this art club (0/1)] (Status: Locked)"

"Task description: Explore the secrets hidden in the second art preparation room (the prerequisites must be fulfilled - this task can be unlocked after joining the art department)."

"Task reward: 5000 points."

Kato Yusuke couldn't help laughing, a wry smile.

It went back and forth, and the result was back to the starting point.

I remember that two days ago, the first club I visited was the art department, but I was persuaded to quit by the queue at that time. If I could have been more patient at that time, maybe I wouldn't have to go around such a big circle.

Kato Yusuke took a deep breath and walked into the activity room while meditating in his heart.

"System, exchange the [Painting] skill."

"The exchanged skill - [Painting (Proficient)], deduct 1000 points."

"Remaining points: 12880."

◇

Tables and chairs, easels, canvases, sculptures.

What catches my eye is the art room that I am used to seeing in class once a week.

There were already people in the room, including Kato Yusuke, a total of four boys and one girl.

On the south side of the classroom against the wall, four easels are lined up in a line, facing the teaching drawing board on the north side.

Seeing Kato Yusuke walk in, the braided girl standing in front of the drawing board coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention.

"Welcome to the Art Department, and I will explain the content of the assessment to you."

After a while

"...Sketch, still life, color painting, oil painting, the subject matter is not limited, as long as everyone submits the work within the specified time, the time is 30 minutes."

"Well, can I ask a question?" A boy with freckles raised his hand.

"Of course." The braided girl nodded and responded with a smile: "What's the problem?"

The attitude was many times better than the girl wearing glasses outside the door, which made the boy who asked the question could not help but relax.

He continued, "Excuse me, what are the criteria for judging, and what does it mean to pass the assessment?"

As soon as the voice fell, the other two boys immediately raised their ears.

Seeing this, the braided girl smiled slightly, and then raised three fingers.

"There are three main criteria for judging. The first is that the picture should be clean and tidy, the composition should be clear, and it should have strong performance and shaping ability."

"Secondly, the color contrast and harmony must be clear, and the overall effect of the picture is good and has a certain aesthetic feeling."

"Finally, it is the emotion expressed in the work. It is not just painted with a brush, but with a heart. Whether it can show what you want to describe in your heart is also a very important consideration."

"Among the three points, as long as you can achieve more than two points, you are considered qualified."

After speaking, there was a sudden wailing from below.

"Isn't it... It's impossible to do these things in such a short period of time, right?"

"That's right, let alone 30 minutes... not even doubling it."

"If it's just a line draft, it's barely okay..."
