Tokyo Girlfriend Guide.

Chapter 215 is really enviable, Hojo-kun
"You know, when Senior Brother Yamamura Ono returned to the dojo to register for your exemption qualification three years ago, he praised you very well, just like Masao Kurata saw his disciple Luye Ryuken get the continuation of the game instead of him. The victory of the three-generation competition is as proud. I have lost the appearance of a senior, and I was laughed at by my classmates."

Hojo Kyosuke knew that the two names were characters that had appeared in each other's novels, so he really liked to quote the contents of his own works when chatting.However, he didn't dislike this kind of personality, on the contrary, he felt that the other party was quite straightforward.

The interesting things he didn't know about the other party also made him even more ashamed. He thought that Mr. Ono Yamamura let him go to his home just to learn the secrets, but he didn't expect that the other party also planned to use him, his proud disciple, as a pretense.

But having said that, the last time Shi Fan came to our house as a guest, he didn't have a chance to entertain him properly.No, didn't he and his father have a good drink in the end?When I got out of the taxi, I still carried him to the guest room by myself, so that's how I treated him well.

But the next morning when Mr. Yamamura Ono left, the expression on his face was really strange.

"Three years, Kyousuke, you really haven't been to the Chiba dojo in the barrel town once. Is the mystery of the Beichen Yidao style so unattractive to you?"

Resentment!
Such emotions appeared on the face of an old man in his 40s, and his voice was full of complaints.

Reluctantly, Hojo Kyosuke had no choice but to resort to the Dafa next time, promising that the other party would definitely go there in his lifetime.

Bei Chen's one-shot style, even Miyamizu Mitsuha once told him that if he had time, he would go to the Chiba Dojo in the barrel town to visit the seniors together, but he didn't expect that even writing mystery novels would be involved.Originally, I was just looking for a self-defense skill, but I didn't expect to get entangled so deeply. Is this also a "knot"?

"After coming to Tokyo from Minato City, I was dazzled by the bustling world of the big city. I was entangled in all kinds of things, so I couldn't go to visit. I am really ashamed of Mr. Ono." Kyosuke Kitjo bowed his head and drank tea.

"Hahaha, I don't believe Hojo-sensei, who can write a character like Tetsuya Ishigami, is the kind of person who has fallen into the mundane world. How about it, go to the dojo with me before school starts. Brother Naito heard that you are going to join the association But the face was as black as poisoned.

Shouting 'has he completely forgotten the way of the sword?What a waste this is, with such a strong talent, with Hojo Kyosuke, I, Hokshin One Sword Style, will definitely be great again'. "

Kenzo Konno described it vividly, but although he said it was vivid, Hojo Kyosuke felt that his imitation was not very similar, because his wanton eyebrows looked very proud.Turning his head for a while, he thought of the reason. The president should be proud that he didn't go to the dojo of his family, but joined the Writers Association first.

"After shouting like this, Senior Brother Naito strangled my neck and told me to take you to the dojo when I saw you, otherwise he would drag me to the dojo when I went to the dojo in the future."

After finishing his complacency, Kenzo Konno grabbed Hojo Kyosuke's shoulder with a heavy expression.

"Then... let me ask about the arrangement of the publishing house and see if there is time." Hojo Kyosuke spoke with a little sincerity this time.

"If you don't have time, make time! Men can't say no, Hojo-kun!"

Kenzo Konno, who was quite easy to get along with from the beginning, put on the classic neon senior posture, as if a lot of work would be thrown over at any time to squeeze the newcomers.But his wish should only be to escape the pain of additional training.

"Then let's go together on the day of the awards." Hojo Kyosuke joked that the relationship between the two parties should have become friends.

"Huh? Then if you can't win the award, don't you go?"

"Haha, how is that possible? Even if you can't win the award, you still have to congratulate the other authors."

"That's right, there should be such a demeanor. The original intention of the association to create this award is to promote the development of neon mystery novels. Only when everyone treats excellent works with an open and inclusive attitude, absorbs the essence and discards the shortcomings, excellent works Only then can it continue to emerge.”

Only now did Hojo Kyosuke truly realize that the man opposite him who has been talking about kendo is a person who has been in charge of the Neon Mystery Writers Association for more than five years.In the first year of his debut, he won the Edogawa Ranpo Award with "Kendo Contest Murder Case", and then successively won the Neon Mystery Writers Association Award, Naoki Award, Honka Mystery Fiction Award...

With seven championships a year, the association has also developed extremely rapidly under his command. Although the Edogawa Rampo Award is still the most valued award in the neon mystery fiction world, the influence of the Neon Mystery Writers Association Award has far exceeded that of overseas. ahead of time.

Well, although they are responsible for the selection of both, there will be vitality only when there is competition.

The adaptation of Hojo Kyosuke's novels into movies is still floating in the sky, but dozens of works by Konno Kenzo have all been filmed.

"The president's words are still so thought-provoking." The sudden voice startled the two of them.

"Aisaka, so you're still there!" Kinno Kenzo exclaimed in surprise.

"It's so rude, how can I hide in the cracks of the sofa with such a big body!" Aisaka Hao Zheng dissatisfied, and at the same time straightened his waist to show his beer belly in May.

"Hahaha, just kidding. But it's almost time to take Hojo-kun to go through the registration procedures." With a hearty smile on his face, Chairman Konno walked to the desk, pressed the phone and said a few words.

"I still have things to deal with, so let Zetian accompany you?"

dong dong——

The half-open office door was pushed open, and a woman in a black professional dress walked in.Hair pulled back, wearing oval black-rimmed glasses, holding a conference book.

After walking in a few steps, she stood there and bowed to them.

"Secretary Sawada, long time no see. This is Hojo Kyosuke, the author of "The Devotion of Suspect X" who is joining the club today."

Aisaka Hao was standing up and introducing.

"Hojo-kun, remember our agreement. I'm not the kind of person who wants to save face like Senior Brother Naito. If I don't see you in the dojo, I will definitely go to your house to find you."

"Haha, even if there is no such thing, the president and senior Aisaka are welcome to come to our house as guests. The Edo Higan cherry tree in the garden will be in full bloom soon. Wouldn't it be interesting to drink tea and enjoy the cherry blossoms at that time?"

Hojo Kyosuke said with a smile, this is a good opportunity to expand the social circle.Although it is good for the body and mind to hang out with beautiful girls every day, a man should have some friends with whom he can drink.

"Haha, that's exactly what it should be. It's a pity that Hojo-kun is far from old enough to drink, otherwise I would have taken the treasured Penglai Spring with me." Aisaka Hao was talking.

"Haha, just bring it, is Hojo-kun the only one who is qualified to taste that fine wine?" Kinno Kenzo pretended to be displeased.

"President, please forgive me, you almost drank all the good wine at home."

Because the secretary Zetian next to him was still waiting, the three of them quickly stopped talking.

The procedure is actually not complicated, and it takes less than 10 minutes to complete, that is, to fill in the basic information, and hobbies and so on.There is only one link that needs more attention, and that is the speeches of new members, and all of this information will be published on the association website.

Fortunately, Hojo Kyosuke now has enough experience in speaking on the scene. Thanks to the recommender Komasa Aisaka, I named several highly respected seniors in the association and talked about the insights I got from their works.Then there are the difficulties encountered in writing, although the writing process is actually quite enjoyable, with the super beautiful girl Kasumigaoka-senpai accompanying her at all times.But difficulty is something, as long as you want to find it, you can still think of it.

Seeing the meal time, Konno Kenzo appeared again, and without saying a word, he pulled Hojo Kyosuke and Aisaka Hiroshi to rush towards an izakaya.It seems that even if he is the chairman, this person is still as wanton as other neon writers.

Drinking during the day is called finding inspiration and being trapped in a magnificent fantasy world.Drinking at night is called feeling sentimental, trapped by love, even though there are three or four female servants around.

But Kyosuke Hojo didn't want to try this kind of writer's happiness for the time being, so he proposed that a friend of his own opened a restaurant.As soon as these words came out, the other two naturally had no room to refute, and it was only natural to cheer for friends.

Hiroshi Aisaka was driving the car, and the three arrived at JR Kasuga Station.Because it is the time to get off work, and there is a shopping street nearby, it took a lot of effort to find a parking space.

"So it's better to walk like me!" Konno Kenzo said sarcasticly.

"President, you can't get a driver's license, right?" Aisaka Haozheng said casually after closing the car door.

"What, which newspaper is spreading rumors? Tell the legal department to sue quickly."

"You said it yourself, the president, when you drank last time."

"...you can take what you say when you're drunk so seriously!"

"Didn't you also say that you utter the truth after drinking? And I have read the report. Chairman, you said that you once drank a whole bottle of Junmai Daiginjo and wrote a novel of 8 words in one breath. That's it." The Black Seduction."

Saying so, Aisaka Hiroshi turned his head to look at Hojo Kyosuke, winked and said sarcastically:
"This is an incredible skill. Hojo-kun, you have to study hard. After you learn it, you can write while drinking. It's the most beautiful thing in the world."

"It's really astonishing." A certain person responded, isn't this the same as when he was in a financial deficit and wanted to ask Mitsuha Miyamizu to help him with his part-time job.I was doing something easy and pleasant, but the money miraculously came into my pocket.

"Which newspaper, let Zetian look it up later and sue them for violating privacy rights." Kenzo Konno looked like he completely forgot that he said it in person in front of the reporter.

While joking, the three of them had already walked into the shopping street, and then something happened that shocked the two old men. They had been famous for many years, but passers-by first recognized the younger generation Kyosuke Hojo.

Because today is business, Hojo Kyosuke put on a casual suit, not the silver suit yesterday, but a dark blue suit.The already outstanding appearance is even more handsome under the background of the custom-made suit. In addition to the aftermath of yesterday's signing event and the overwhelming reports today, he was immediately recognized by the people in the shopping street.

At the beginning, Miki Okudera chose this place because there are schools, high schools, and universities nearby, and they are also most concerned about the current news.According to the sales volume of more than 100 million copies of Hojo Kyosuke's "The Devotion of Suspect X", an average of 1.2 out of 1200 million neon people have bought his novels, and this proportion may be even higher among the student population.

At the entrance of the cold drink shop, the girl who was bored looking at her mobile phone stopped looking around, pulled her companion's sleeve vigorously, and asked in disbelief:
"Hey? Is that Hojo Kyosuke?!"

"Really, where is it?!" The companion quickly moved his eyes away from the phone, and started to ask before turning his head.

Both of them are students of the nearby Shangmei Music College. They don't know their artistic level, but they are absolute experts in makeup and dressing. The beautiful legs under the miniskirt are so white that they stand there and attract all the eyes of the men around them.Seeing the reaction of the two, the people around also followed their gazes.

"Kyosuke Hojo? Who is that?"

There are also people who don't know, and the people around them will give him popular science in an extremely exaggerated tone.

While everyone was still watching, the beautiful duo trotted over and asked if they could take a photo with their mobile phones.It was the first time for Hojo Kyosuke to receive this kind of treatment. In order not to disappoint the book fans, he readily agreed and introduced two great writers around him to the two girls.

From the previous conversations, he had learned that both Konno Kenzo and Aisaka-senpai were the kind of people who didn't mind being exposed.Maybe this has something to do with the fact that they all hold positions in the association.

The girl didn't expect to have such a harvest, and she smiled even more happily.

After the photo was taken, the girl didn't ask for an autograph anymore, and left after bowing and thanking.

Seeing that the first person who asked for a group photo succeeded, other people who were shopping on both sides of the shopping street quickly ran over, and some people quickly bought a copy of "The Suspect" placed in the middle of the display board from the bookstore. X's Devotion".

After signing for several people, seeing that the two seniors had been squeezed outside, Hojo Kyosuke quickly clasped his hands together and shouted to the people around:

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, I will hold the second autograph session at Diyang Academy in front of Chunshanzhuang Garden. You can find me there. Now please let me eat first. My stomach is already protesting."

Hearing his words, some book fans who knew his attributes as a big eater laughed out of good intentions, and then they all dispersed politely.

"Ah, I really didn't expect to be recognized." Hojo Kyosuke said apologetically to the two seniors beside him.

Kenzo Konno and Hiroshi Aisaka looked at each other, suspecting that the kid was showing off, so they didn't speak anymore, and decided to eat more later, so that he could feel good about it.

"Yantei? That's a good name. Could it be Hojo-kun you chose it?" Konno Kenzo asked while standing under the black-and-white signboard.

"No, no, I have a hard time picking names. I can't think of such a good name. It was chosen by my friend." Kitajo Kyosuke waved his hand.

While the two were talking, a beautiful figure appeared at the door.

"Kyosuke? What are you doing standing at the door, come in quickly!"

Wearing dark blue casual clothes and a white apron, Miki Okudera waved, with a bright smile on her face as if she wanted to compete with the sun.

"This is your friend?"

Regardless of impoliteness, Kenzo Konno and Hiroshi Aisaka asked while holding Hojo Kyosuke's arm alone.No wonder this guy didn't show a rippling expression when facing those young girls who asked for a group photo, so he was waiting here!
"That's right, Meiji's cooking is top-notch, whether it's Italian or French, she's good at Chinese cuisine."

Hojo Kyosuke greeted the two of them into the store with a smile, and then introduced them to both parties.

Hearing their identities and knowing that they were Kyosuke's friends at work, Miki Okudera bowed slightly with a gentle smile on her face.

Kenzo and Kenzo also quickly returned the gift.

The tables on the first floor were almost full, and Hojo Kyosuke led the two of them to the stairway with the barricade without seeing anyone.

Although Yanting has recruited a chef and a waiter, the cafe business mentioned earlier has not been carried out. Except for the friends of Kita Kyosuke and Okudera Miki, no one else has visited the second floor.

The boss and chef went down to prepare with the menu, and the old man, whose two children were almost as old as Hojo Kyosuke, looked at him enviously.

"Hojo-kun, is that your lover?"

"Huh? They're good friends."

"Just friends!?" Kenzo Konno obviously didn't believe it. If he had such a beautiful woman by his side, how could he be satisfied with just being friends.

"Well... still a partner."

"Partner?"

"Well, there's a part of me in this restaurant, too."

"Ooh-oh-" X2
The two old men showed greasy smiles of "I understand", and then laughed loudly and patted Hojo Kyosuke on the shoulder. While talking, they had already agreed to go to the high-end club in Ginza to play together next time.

The sumptuous meal was served quickly, and as for whether they had jumped in line, none of them had thought about it.Knowing that Miki's restaurant was busy, Hojo Kyosuke didn't let her sit down and eat together.

"It's delicious, Si Guoyi, I didn't expect such a beautiful woman to have such good cooking skills!"

After picking up the spoon and taking a sip of the vegetable soup, Aisaka Haozheng immediately praised it loudly.

"Haha, Miki is a graduate of Ochanomizu Women's University. All the dishes are improved by herself, and they are guaranteed to be nutritious and delicious." Hojo Kyosuke added oolong tea for the two, with a reserved smile on his face.

"Damn it, my biggest dream in college was to find a girlfriend from Ochanomizu Women's University!" Konno Kenzo let out an unwilling voice.

"Yes, it's really enviable, Hojo-kun." Aisaka Hiroshi also said.

Wrote such a great novel before he was in high school that he was nominated for a Neon Mystery Writers Guild Award.Although the final selection has not yet started, several people actually have vague guesses in their hearts.Kendo is also so powerful that it was regarded as the hope of the genre by the seniors, and now I have such an excellent female friend.

Damn it, Hojo-kun.
