Tokyo Girlfriend Illustrated Book

The earth and sky are connected together, blending into a gray-white world. A series of railway tracks extending from nowhere to here meet in the middle. The dark steam train is like a line at first. It is emitting thick smoke and continues to accelerate, accelerate, clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang...

Countless trains crashed into each other like Don Quixote rushing towards the windmill. The locomotives faced the locomotives, the locomotives faced the carriages, some flew up, some burrowed into the ground, and they were all tangled together.

The steam engine was still roaring and making a harsh sound.

This was the scene that appeared in Hojo Kyosuke's dream. Even after he woke up, the hundred trains still seemed to be running in his head.

His body was covered in sweat and his hair was soaked.

What, are aliens going to attack the earth?

He lifted the quilt and scratched his hair, wondering why this happened.

I took my phone from the bedside table and saw that it was exactly seven o'clock.

The moment I got out of bed, put on my slippers and stood up, my head felt a little dizzy. Sure enough, was it because you were too tired from work in the past few days? It seems that I can’t work for more than one day from now on.

I opened the curtains, opened the windows, and before I had time to look around the courtyard as usual and breathe in the air with extremely high carbon dioxide concentration, the pleasant sound of reading came from below.

I leaned over and looked down, and saw that it was Glass holding a book and reciting aloud. When I heard it again, it was "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" by Bai Juyi, but it was a Japanese version, and it was in ancient Japanese. The translation also fully respects Japanese grammar, placing the verb at the end.

For example, "hot spring water washes away the grease" is translated as "hot spring water washes away the grease", which is roughly understood as "washing away the grease".

This is an ancient Chinese text that can only be learned in high school. Unexpectedly, Glass is already previewing it now.

Aren't you afraid that breathing in the cold air will damage your throat?

Although he was thinking this, looking at the girl's focused look and listening to her serious voice, Hojo Kyousuke didn't want to disturb her.

After walking into the bathroom and taking three minutes to rinse briefly, he walked downstairs. Zhihua was also sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a book and reading attentively.

Although he has long known that not everyone can appreciate the beauty of sleeping in, he was a rare early riser today, and he was actually the last one!

"Good morning, Naohua."

Seeing that his movement downstairs failed to bring the girl back from the world of books, Hojo Kyosuke shouted.

"Oh? Good morning Kyosuke, why did you get up so early today?"

Naohua raised her head in surprise when she heard this. Based on her understanding of Kyosuke, after working like this for three consecutive days, he would definitely sleep all day long before leaving the nest.

"You are all studying so seriously, how can I still sleep?"

Smiling, he took his cup from the cup holder, poured a glass of water and sat on the sofa.

"Haha~~"

Naohua smiled briskly, turned her head and glanced at Glass, whose back was still facing the living room, and raised the book in her hand.

"Me and Glass are different."

The cover of the book is not any kind of textbook, but a short-haired woman wearing a brown sweater, "BAILA", Zhihua's favorite fashion magazine.

"Aren't you studying too?"

Hojo Kyosuke laughed and said, so it is very pleasant to be able to develop a hobby into a career to a certain extent. The magazine he usually used to relax has actually become a study material.

"The seniors are so awesome. Some of them can already publish articles in magazines of this level."

Naoka turned the magazine around and showed Hojo Kyosuke what she was reading.

Well, even though the average daily maximum temperature is only 13 degrees, in the picture that says "Slimming Award", the girl has already put on a skirt that looks very cold. Below are some fabrics and design concepts explaining why fashion looks good.

Oh, that's right, high school students are still honest. This doesn't explain who understands fashion.

"Zhihua, you have received a special scholarship. You will definitely be more powerful than these seniors."

Although she was thinking so in her heart, Zhihua still embarrassedly plucked the hair beside her ear with her little finger. Her beautiful blue-purple eyes were full of longing, and she whispered softly: "I hope so."

"Most definitely."

Hojo Kyousuke stood up, walked to the courtyard, opened the sliding glass door, and the sound of glass being blocked suddenly came in. This idiot must have gone to the courtyard to study because he was worried about disturbing Zhihua.

"Glass."

After hearing the sound, Nishimiya Glass immediately turned around, his voice full of surprise:

"Ah, Kyosuke-kun, you're getting ready."

While she was talking, she walked quickly from the pond to Hojo Kyousuke, and a smile appeared on her frozen face.

"What's the matter? When you see me so surprised, do you mean to say that I'm a lazy person staying in bed?"

Looking at the girl's cute appearance, Hojo Kyosuke couldn't help but want to tease her.

"Yeah, that's not true." Glass shook his head quickly, even though he knew it was a joke, he still explained seriously.

As she spoke like this, she lowered her head in embarrassment, and then looked at the boy opposite her with slightly raised eyes, her brown eyes shining brightly in the morning light:

"Although I know that I will see Kyosuke-kun every morning from now on, I still can't help but be happy."

"What an idiot. Don't read aloud in the courtyard in the morning. The temperature is too low. Take care of your voice. If necessary, you can go to the third floor. There are many empty rooms there."

"Yeah~" Glass nodded happily.

"Go in and have a glass of water and rest for a while. I'll prepare breakfast right away." As soon as he saw Glass's innocent smile, Hojo Kyosuke couldn't help but want to rub his fluffy brown hair.

"How about I prepare it today?"

"If you really thought so, you wouldn't have waited until now." He stretched out his hand and scratched his small nose.

"Hehe~~ Who made Kyosuke-kun's food so delicious?" Glass stuck out his pink tongue.

Although Itomori had spent many days eating white rice in the morning, Hojo Kyousuke still couldn't get used to it, so the breakfast he prepared was simple and delicious wheat pancakes. Add sugar and water to the wheat flour, apply a little oil on the pan, and spread the batter evenly. It will be sweet after it is made. You can eat it directly, or you can choose to spread it with blueberry jam.

The blueberry jam I eat now is bought from the supermarket, but Glass has already planted blueberries in the yard, and I hope to be able to eat Hojo's blueberry jam in the second half of the year.

Neon Medical University Hospital

In the single ward with "Yamauchi" written on it, Sakura was looking out the window in a daze, using the LINE conversation interface on her phone. A photo of cherry blossoms in full bloom was sent to the person opposite. According to the "itinerary", she should be walking with her grandparents beside the Kamogawa River to enjoy the cherry blossoms.

And in fact...

"Sakura, are you really not going to tell Kyousuke-kun?" Yamauchi Maki hesitated again and again and asked. At half past eight, my daughter will enter the operating room. She believed that if Hojo Kyosuke was in the hospital, he would definitely give her daughter more courage.

"Hahaha, Mom, it's not like you don't know Kyousuke. If he comes to the hospital, his serious expression might scare the doctor so much that his hands tremble." Sakura turned around and spoke to her mother in a brisk tone. said.

"Haha, what are you kidding? Kyousuke-kun has a gentle smile, doesn't he?"

Even though he said that, Maki Yamauchi had to admit that Kyosuke's child's downcast face was really scary. But I rarely see her. The last time I saw her was when she was in the fifth grade of Sakura Elementary School. She was hit on the head by a few boys playing ball on her way out to buy snacks. Kyousuke came to his house to play. After learning about this, his face instantly turned ugly.

At that time, he just smiled and comforted Sakura, saying that he would definitely take revenge in the future. This "future" came unexpectedly quickly, and the next day she saw a group of parents gathered at the door of Hojo's house. Kyousuke-kun stood in front of his mother, facing the group of angry parents with an expressionless face, and then handed out his father's business cards when he was still a lawyer one by one.

Thinking of this, Maki Yamauchi had a better understanding of why her daughter had to hide it from the child even if she told Kyosuke secretly.

In the eyes of her daughter, if her daily life with Kyosuke is ruined, it will be like the end of the world. And for that child, if he knew about Sakura's condition, it would really be the end of the world...

Thinking of the good times between the two children, Yamauchi Miki couldn't help but feel sore in her eyes, and then she immediately turned her head and wiped away the tears that had overflowed from the corners of her eyes.

Masaki Yamauchi stood aside and sighed heavily. He was naturally happy to have a son-in-law who liked his daughter so much and was such an excellent person. He had even thought about discussing marriage with the Hojo family a long time ago, but now it has become like this.

"It's okay, Mom, the operation will be successful, don't be so afraid." Sakura held her mother's hand and squeezed it hard.

She has no fear and full confidence in her heart. Her high school life with Kyousuke has not yet begun. She only has a once-in-a-lifetime JK experience, and she will not miss it. Therefore, Yamauchi Sakura's operation will definitely be successful, and he will become healthy and go back to see Kyousuke. The house has not even been named yet.

"Yeah!" Yamauchi Maki also stretched out her other hand and covered her daughter's hand.

The phone on Sakura's lap vibrated.

"It's Kyousuke~" She picked up the phone and shook it at her parents, but she didn't want them to give them private space.

"Moxi Moxi~~The lazy Kyousuke actually got up so early. Don't tell me that you are also walking on the trail of Kamogawa."

The brisk voice did not sound like someone who was about to undergo surgery.

"Haha, Sakura, you are the only one who has no right to call me a lazy person. I will definitely get up more early than you!"

"That's weird! I have written this down. I got up earlier than you for five days in the third grade!"

"It's just because the times are too few that you can remember them. In fourth grade, I got up thirty-two times earlier than you!"

"Ha, you're still talking about me, isn't it because you only remember it because the times are too few?"

"There are 32 stone pavements in front of your house, and there are 13 levels in total from the first floor to the turning point in the middle. And you, Sakura-sama, who has a good memory, do you know how many levels there are in total from the turning point to the second floor?"

"Of course it's 13 too!" Although he didn't know anything and had never lost once, Sakura's voice was so sure.

"Stupid, it's 14."

A light laugh came from the other side of the phone.

"Damn it, I want to complain to the designer. This is too unfriendly for blind people. If I remember it wrong, I will have a big fall!" Sakura clenched her fist and expressed her condolences to the blind compatriots who did not exist in her family. indignant.

"I think if you were really blind, you would use a blind cane."

"Nonsense, how can anyone keep dotting at home?"

Sakura is still very sure about this, because she once doubted whether Hojo Kyosuke could live with his eyes closed in a bachelor apartment, because the placement of each of his things was fixed. As far as she knew, Only blind people do this.

Time passed quietly as the two chatted. Over there, Hojo Kyousuke's boredom due to nightmares disappeared without a trace. Over here, Sakura was looking forward to the days after the successful operation.

Seeing their daughter smiling brightly and dancing and talking, the Yamauchi couple couldn't bear to turn their heads.

After a while

Seeing his mother click on the time on her watch, Sakura knew it was time to end the conversation. She straightened up and looked out the window at the direction of Hojo's house:

"The cherry blossoms along the Kamogawa River are so beautiful. You must come and see them next year, Kyosuke."

As she spoke, the girl seemed to have really seen the gorgeous cherry blossoms on the bank of the Kamogawa River: "When the time comes, you can bring Nizi and the others with you and secretly pick some cherry blossoms to make sakura cakes."

"Idiot, cherry cakes only use the leaves of the cherry blossom tree."

"Of course I know this, but there is no rule that you can't add cherry blossoms in it. After all, cherry cakes without cherry blossoms are basically a scam!"

"Sir Sakura is right, then pick more cherry blossoms then." Hojo Kyosuke obeyed.

"Hey, hey, Kyosuke, please don't steal the whole tree again."

"How dare you say that you didn't say you wanted it yourself!" Although Sakura's words were a bit confusing, Hojo Kyousuke knew what the other party was referring to immediately.

"Okay, grandma is calling me. Goodbye Kyosuke."

"Well, come back soon."

"Hmm~~ Miss me as much as you miss Sakura Cake, hehe."

After hanging up the phone, Sakura looked at the darkened screen of her phone.

"Mom, you would never imagine how exaggerated Kyousuke is."

"What's wrong?" How could Maki Yamauchi not know, but it must be an even more incredible thing for her daughter, who is also mentally ill, to say such a thing.

"When I was in my second year of junior high school, I was on the phone with Kyousuke at my grandfather's house. I told him that the maple trees at Kiyomizu Temple were so beautiful and I really wanted to move them to Tokyo."

"Then?" Yamauchi Masato asked. He had naturally had this thought before. After leaving Kyoto, the most unforgettable thing was the maple forest that could be seen from the balcony at home, as if it was setting Qingliangji Temple on fire. .

"Then? Hahaha, then Kyousuke really went to Kyoto to get a maple tree and planted it in the newly purchased mansion."

Sakura laughed loudly. The small maple tree planted in the most important "service tree" position in the courtyard was so conspicuous. Even someone with no knowledge of gardening could see the disharmony, and she certainly could, because she didn't have one.

Aunt Mijiko was also confused, and then said, "And he got this tree from Kyoto on the Shinkansen. I thought it was given to him by you, Sakura-chan, but it turned out not to be the case."

Of course I didn't give it to myself, because...

"The maple trees in the maple forest in front of Qingliang Temple?" Yamauchi asked in disbelief.

"In front of Qingliang Temple, directly opposite the balcony of grandpa's house!" Sakura affirmed.

"But I remember that it's not for sale!"

"Hahaha, that's it." That's why she said she didn't give it to her. Although she had thought about it, she really just thought about it! How could a good boy like him do such exaggerated things as Kyousuke?

"What a mess."

The Yamauchi couple laughed at the same time, but immediately the sadness in their hearts became even worse. God, why would something like this happen to my daughter? She obviously did nothing wrong. She is about to enter the most beautiful period of her life with the boy who loves her deeply, and she is about to enjoy her splendid youth.

If we lose her, myself, my husband, and Kyousuke, our world will lose its color.

Doctors and nurses walked into the ward. Because the gifts were sufficient, the hospital sent the best doctors in this field. Yuki Minagawa, a rare female surgeon. The reason why I chose this hospital instead of the other two hospitals that ranked first in terms of cancer was because of this doctor. As long as the pancreatic cancer surgery she performed was in the early stage, the success rate was 100%.

Seeing the doctor come in, the Yamauchi couple quickly said hello, and Dr. Minagawa responded with a smile on his face. She has great medical ethics and knew that the target of the surgery was a little girl who was about to enter high school, so she had communicated with the patient and family members several times before to reduce their tension.

But what she didn't expect was that the girl, who had just celebrated her 16th birthday, was not nervous at all. Instead, she kept comforting her parents.

"The operation will be successful."

Looking at the girl on the bed who was as bright as a cherry blossom, she made such a promise. Although it was against the norm, she just wanted to tell the other party.

"Well, thank you, Dr. Minagawa." Sakura grinned, showing her white teeth. Of course she knew the operation would be successful, because Kyousuke was still waiting for her.

After hanging up the phone, Hojo Kyousuke kept standing in the courtyard, staring at the lush maple tree. He has decided that once all the maple leaves turn yellow, he will knock them all down.

Originally, he thought it was cruel to focus on knocking down dead leaves to facilitate cleaning, but it was different now. He wanted to make everything in the yard full of life. It was also because of this that he gave up dry mountains and rivers. He didn't like the ghost wabi-sabi.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Minagawa Yuki walked out of the operating room and informed the Yamauchi couple about the operation status with a gentle smile. It was very successful and the resection was very clean. It can be seen that the prognosis of the surgery will be very good and I will not miss high school life.

Maki Yamauchi didn't even bother to thank the doctor, tears flowed down silently and squatted on the ground.

Very good

In the evening, Yamauchi Sakura recovered from anesthesia.

"Ha, ha, I just said the operation will be successful."

Looking at her parents beside the hospital bed, she forced a smile and wanted to make some exclusive theory, but she really didn't have the strength.

"Mom, help me send that message to Kyosuke."

Yamauchi Maki took the phone as instructed and sent the message her daughter had prepared before.

Ding

"Good night! (picture)" - Yamauchi Sakura

Hojo Kyousuke, who was reading a novel in the living room, quickly picked up his phone and clicked on the picture.

Sakura smiled with her mouth wide open and made a corny scissor-hands pose.

Smiling, he also returned

"Good night."
