Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

After school in the Fine Arts Department, the second prepares the interior.

"Sawamura-san, why are you hiding your fanfiction?"

"Huh? Does this have anything to do with you?"

"No, I'm just curious, it doesn't matter if I don't want to answer."

Her azure blue eyes moved away from the drawing book for a moment, and Yingri glanced at the young man sitting next to her, then lowered her head and muttered, "Just think about it with common sense... I Sawamura Yingri draws erotic fangirls. How can I explain it to everyone?"

"But there are also works of all ages in your paintings. As long as you make it clear at the beginning, you can participate in animation fan clubs and the like, right?"

"The public's discrimination against otaku is deeply rooted."

"That old saying is no longer popular now, after all, everyone has seen animation more or less."

Kato Yusuke considered his words and continued: "And even if you will be discriminated against at first, everyone will gradually get used to it. An otaku like you, who is so crazy and impossible to close the mountain, is happier going that way? "

In an instant, Eiri's expression swayed like a mirage in a heat wave, and even her body swayed slightly.

"I...was the least worthy of being an otaku since I was a child."

Her eyes were a little dazed, as if recalling the past, and her voice was a little ethereal.

"Everyone seems to think that someone who doesn't look like an otaku would be more embarrassed than someone who doesn't look like an otaku who happily chats about animation and video games."

"When you were young, you meant the second grade of elementary school." Kato Yusuke thought for a while and said, "Could it be that you are too sensitive?"

"Even if I was bullied all the time because of that? After that, I just pretended to be out of the house, and no one dared to bully me again?"

"..."

Yusuke Kato couldn't help being silent at the words of Eri Ri's questioning.

Looking at the girl in front of him, a certain enlightenment emerged in his heart.

Perhaps because of her beautiful appearance and her family background, people are completely unable to associate this "beautiful mixed-race girl as delicate as a doll" with those sloppy and sloppy otakus in society.

It's because the people around Ying Lili who have fantasies about her cannot accept that she is addicted to drawing two-dimensional illustrations, and is also intoxicated by pictures like Brother Pig.

After figuring this out, Kato Yusuke stopped talking too much, and just said to Eiri: "I discriminate against others just because of their inherent beliefs, but ignore the shining points in others, such people don't need to care, at least I don't care. I think you draw really well."

Hearing what he said, Eiri came back to her senses.

I saw that the girl first glanced at Kato Yusuke with a scrutiny look, then turned her head with a "hum", and responded with some pride: "Just a newcomer... What a big deal!"

"Yes..." Kato Yusuke did not argue with her, but pointed to the drawing book in the other's hand and asked, "So is there any problem, Mr. Kashiwagi Eri?"

"Well... It's completely different from the previous style of painting, and the characters' movements feel a little stiff. The most important thing is that this isn't the point at all!"

Eri Li, who was flipping the pages, said with some dissatisfaction, then threw the painting book back, and left a sentence, "Show me the paintings at the back first."

Kato Yusuke did not refuse, after all, it was the plan. So according to the content in my memory, I drew the most critical pictures.

It is worth mentioning that in this painting process he used a pill pen. Because this pen can draw very thin lines, it can be very delicate when drawing certain parts.

Seeing this scene, Ying Lili nodded slightly indiscernibly. If you want to be a respected painter...well, a book painter, attention to detail is essential.

So she also got up from her seat, stood diagonally behind Kato Yusuke, and looked at her with her arms crossed, and this look made her fascinated.

In the quiet second art preparation room, only the rustling of the tip of the pen across the paper and the even breathing of the boys and girls could be heard.

Time passed silently, and the content in the picture was gradually completed in a single stroke. Although there are still no lines, the simple and crude picture presented on the paper can basically be understood by everyone.

From an angle that Kato Yusuke couldn't see, Eri Ri's eyes were shining with an inexplicable light.

"All right."

"abnormal……"

The moment he stopped writing, the voices of the boy and girl sounded in the room at the same time, and the latter's words made Kato Yusuke feel bad in an instant.

Are you, the master of the abuse department, qualified to speak to me? ! ——Before saying this sentence, the painting book in front of him was snatched by the other party.

"I'll take a look..."

Having said that, Eiri ran to the side with the drawing book in her arms, and turned her back to Kato Yusuke to look at it, and from time to time strange words came out of her mouth.

"Sleep?", "ero", "scumbag"... and so on.

For a beautiful blonde girl who seemed to have stepped out of a picture scroll to say these words... it's a bit bad.

And from Kato Yusuke's point of view, Eiri's body still seems to be shaking slightly...or twisting?

Is it necessary to read this old manga so seriously?

He complained silently in his heart, and asked the girl, "...Excuse me, where is the painting wrong, Mr. Kashiwagi Eri?"

As if she just realized that there is another person here, Eiri's movements froze. After clearing his throat, he turned around and said with a wandering gaze, "Well...although there are some things that need to be revised, it's still interesting. What's the name of this story?"

"Name?" Kato Yusuke froze for a moment, then blurted out: "What are you talking about, isn't this "Early Summer Time"?"

"Early summer time...?" Ying Lili rested her chin in one hand and frowned slightly: "It's a casual name, but it's a fitting occasion."

As she said that, she glanced at Kato Yusuke, and organized the language: "It's not bad for a newcomer, so try to add lines later."

"Isn't this necessary?" Kato Yusuke wondered, "Isn't it more convenient to buy it online?"

"What are you talking about? No one will buy this kind of semi-finished product, and the problem of stiffness in movement has not been solved, so let me go back and perfect it before that! Perfect!"

Looking at the girl who spoke to him in a reprimanding tone, Yusuke Kato stared straight at him without saying a word.

It wasn't until Ying Riri's expression was puzzled at the beginning that it gradually became a little scared, and she folded her arms to the corner, and then he finally spoke.

"Hey, Sawamura-san."

"Ah...ah! What, what are you doing...?"

Without bothering to find out where the vigilance on the other's face came from, Kato Yusuke asked word by word.

"Have you not read this story?"

"...Huh?...Story?"

Hearing his words, the girl was stunned for a moment, then slightly relieved, and asked doubtfully, "Do you mean your book?"

"Yes, haven't you seen anything similar?"

"Well...it doesn't seem like it." Ying Lili shook her head.

Kato Yusuke's eyes lit up suddenly.
