If there is anything else that can happen between men and women, no matter how much Chimi Kawa thinks, it can only be a topic of 'love'.

It's not that she's easy to think crookedly, it's that the chances of pure friendship between men and women are too low.

Could it be that his cabbage was arched by a pig?

No... If you have to say it, in fact, the conditions of Mingsha are not as good as those of Higashino Division, and there is a big-breasted school girl next to Higashino Division...

That's Kuromiya Akira pig arched the cabbage of Tsukasa Higashino?

No way...?

Chimi Nagawa was still puzzled in the same place, and when she saw that Kuronomiya Mingsha had completely put things into her bag, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Mingsha, what do you think of Senior Brother Higashino?" ”

"Huh?" Kuronomiya Masa didn't understand why her friend suddenly brought up this topic, she was obviously stunned, and a contemplative look appeared on her demure face.

After a while, she thought about it and replied: "Senior Higashino is a very powerful person, his painting skills are much better than mine, and he also taught me a lot when he was communicating and learning, and maybe he will trouble him in the future." ”

"Huh?"

Chimi Nagawa heard her friend say this, and showed an incredible expression.

It's over, it's over, it's all over.

In the past, when she asked Kuronomiya Mingsa, Kuronomiya Mingsa would always keep her head down and think for a long time, and then look up and reply, "I will definitely surpass him." ”

Why is it now that 'Higashino is very powerful, I want to learn more from him?' ’

You must know that the previous Kuronomiya Mingsha was very good and strong, how could he suddenly admit defeat like this?

It seems that what he is thinking about is true, and Kuronomiya Mingsha is probably moved to think about arch cabbage.

Chimi Nagawa hesitated for a while, feeling that she should be tactful at this time, and she couldn't persuade Kuromiya Akira too directly.

After all, there is a good saying, girls in love are blind, if you accidentally hurt Kuronomiya Mingsha's self-esteem... That's not good.

So she thought for a while before she said what she thought: "Mingsha, I personally think it's a bit inappropriate for you to fall in love with Senior Higashino... This kind of old cow eating young grass is not right. ”

Belch...?

Kuronomiya Akira was originally a very calm person who didn't like to talk, but when she was suddenly told by Chimi Nagawa, her face was inexplicable: "Chimi, what are you talking about?" ”

She didn't understand it at all.

What old cow eats tender grass? Whose grass to eat? Tsukasa Higashino?

At this time, Chimi Nagawa also sighed and walked over, and gently patted her flat chest: "As a friend, I actually support you, but how are you going to solve the big-breasted senior next to Senior Brother Higashino?" ”

Then Chimi Nagawa shook her head a little worriedly.

She had seen it in the newspaper, the issue of 'Moonlight is Beautiful'.

Tsukasa Higashino said he had a girlfriend, and that girlfriend was the big-breasted school girl I saw before...

So what can I do? Mingsha's small breasts are congenital, and it's normal to not be able to beat big breasts, so you still have to use a chest pad, right?

Chimi Nagawa thought about it and wanted to rub Kuronomiya Mingsa's breasts, she wanted to see if there was room for development in the future.

But before she could stretch out her hand, Kuromiya Mingsa smashed down her sketchbook directly, smashing the back of her hand red.

"It hurts! Mingsha! What are you doing!? I'm good for you! ”

Chimi Nagawa was still thinking about the possibility of chest massage, why did Kuronomiya Akisa suddenly smash herself back?

“... What do you want? Kuronomiya Mingsha's mouth twitched, she really didn't expect that her sworn friend would dare to sue the wicked first.

"Don't you like Higashino-senpai? I'll give you the possibility of a staff officer. Chimi Nagawa said and wanted to stretch out her hand again, but looking at the sketchbook in Kuronomiya Mingsha's expressionless hand, she shrugged and could only give up: "Okay, okay, I'm no longer a counselor." ”

Kuronomiya Akira was speechless for a while by her funny appearance with a rich expression, and after a while, she asked Chimi Nagawa puzzled: "Chimi, why do you think I like Senior Higashino?" ”

She doesn't seem to be doing anything, is she?

“... Haven't you been parodying the original manuscript of "Midnight Bell" these days? Seeing that she was still unconscious, Nagawa Chimi continued: "And when you mentioned Higashino's junior brother before, you were very bitter and hateful, and you were especially unwilling to lose to him... But today your attitude is completely different. ”

"Was that what I used to be?" Kuronomiya Akira touched her face in surprise.

"yes... It's like this. "Chimi Nagawa made a demonstration in person, her face collapsed directly, her eyebrows were wrinkled together, and her facial features were crowded together... It's just that this doesn't look like bitterness and hatred at all, but like a dead parent.

This appearance made Kuronomiya Akira a little surprised, she touched her face repeatedly, but she didn't want to be a ghost like Chimi Nagawa.

However, she only touched it for a while, and then hesitated to tell Chimi Nagawa the answer: "Actually, Chimi... The reason why I've been imitating Higashino's brushstrokes is because..."

Akira Kuronomiya told Chimi Nagawa that she was going to work as a painter in the production team of "Midnight Bell".

"To be a painter?!"

Chimi Nagawa was a little silent, and it took a long time to realize that her voice seemed to be a little loud.

So she hurriedly lowered her tone, and the surprise in her tone did not dissipate at all: "Mingsha, you really want to be a painter?" It was a very hard job... And it doesn't make much money. ”

Chimi Nagawa often helps Kuronomiya Akira draw backgrounds, and she is quite clear about things in the animation and manga industry.

Nowadays, many animation film production companies use hand-drawn works, and have not yet adopted the method of CG computer production.

And there are two positions derived from this, one is the original artist, and the other is the animation painter.

Although they all bear the title of 'artist', the position of the original artist is much higher than that of the animator, and the salary is higher than that of the animator.

Let's take a simple example.

For example, in the shot of a boy running, there are several key actions such as raising hands, raising legs, stepping, and closing legs.

The original artist's job is to be responsible for drawing these key movements of 'lifting the leg and stepping', but just like that, the action of running is definitely incomplete, for example, the action of 'raising the hand', the hand must have a time process to raise it, and the same is true for the action of 'lifting the foot', there is also a process of lifting the foot, but the original artist ignores these processes.

The animator is responsible for making up for the leg lift, the process of stepping, so that the whole picture can move.

It's a very tiring job, and it's mainly about the face of the original artist, and the most important thing is that the salary is not high - Kuronomiya Akisa draws a manga casually, and sells a single book for millions of yen... She didn't have to suffer like this.

And the main thing is ... How is the animated movie "Midnight Bell"?

"Mingsha... I've heard this job is quite tiring... Are you really going? Chimi Nagawa couldn't help but ask.

"Well, I'm going." Kuronomiya Akira nodded.

Her words were as few as ever, but her attitude was tough, and she didn't mean to back down at all.

"Why are you so positive all of a sudden?" Chimi Nagawa has always held back and didn't want to mention Kuronomiya Akisa's wound about Tsukasa Higashino, but she didn't expect that she would actually want to take the initiative to see Tsukasa Higashino.

As soon as these words came out, it didn't make Kuronomiya Akira think for long.

She just thought about it, and then said, "I want to ask Senior Higashino a lot of questions. Not only in comics, but also in oil paintings... In short, I want to be his disciple. I do have a lot to be desired. ”

Chimi Nagawa was speechless when she heard this answer.

Because she found out...

Kuronomiya Akira seems to be more calm and humble than before.

Of course, this is not to say that Kuronomiya Akisa's attitude was aggressive before... But... Genius always has a little bit of an unapproachable feeling.

But the current Kuronomiya Mingsha seems to be more down-to-earth than the previous image of a genius who pulled away a position around him.

She will take the initiative to admit her shortcomings, instead of being full of 'I must defeat Tsukasa Higashino' like before.

Is this change for the better? Or is it bad?

Chimi Nagawa was inexplicably looking forward to it.

......

Since the tenth episode of "The Winner is Justice", the word-of-mouth accumulated in the past has gradually exploded.

And looking at "The Winner is Justice", which re-aroused word-of-mouth and topics, Higashino Tsukasa also breathed a sigh of relief - he didn't embarrass this Japanese drama that was popular in his previous life, and he also won quite an honor.

But at the same time, there was also news from Kita-Yoshijuku, where Higashino Tsukasa had been messing around.

It's time for winter break.

And when it comes to winter vacation... This has to mention the holiday system for students in Japan.

There are three holidays for Japanese students, spring break, summer vacation, and winter break.

Among them, the winter vacation is the shortest, which is only the Christmas holiday plus the annual leave for two weeks, and you have to come back to class on the sixth day of January.

In addition to these three standard holidays, the rest are the Golden Week holiday and the usual scattered three consecutive holidays.

Tsukasa Higashino was able to spend this winter vacation happily, after all, Kitayojuku directly hid his grades, which is equivalent to directly giving the green light and ensuring that Tsukasa Higashino goes all the way to school.

But unlike Tsukasa Higashino, who operates in the dark, Yumi Takahashi, Ryoka Konoe's best friend, cried directly, she hung up two subjects, and then she had to take the make-up exam, and if the make-up exam hadn't passed, she would have to stay for a year.

Fujiwara Aoi was sneering on the side, but when it really came time for Yumi Takahashi to help her with tutoring, although she was full of 'stupid pigs' and looked disgusted, she still couldn't stand Yumi Takahashi and agreed.

And the place they chose to hold the study meeting was Konoe Ryoka House.

Tsukasa Higashino can usually hear the noise on their side, the panicked sound of Ryoka Konoe, the heartless laughing voice of Yumi Takahashi, and the scolding voice of Aoi Fujiwara, this noisy atmosphere makes Tsukasa Higashino feel that this cold winter day is a little more noisy and warm.

He can be regarded as having traveled for half a year, and in addition to himself, it is Higashino Chihaya in the house, and he seems to be deserted.

Friends of the same level in the past half a year, Higashino Division didn't make a few, probably just them, and they can usually come over to play games with Higashino Chihaya... That's enough.

Tsukasa Higashino is content with the current situation.

After he finished drawing the original manuscript, he would also go to the living room from time to time to play games with Higashino Chihaya and them, especially the game of the squirrel carrying the box - he killed many people, in addition to Aoi Fujiwara, Ryoka Konoe and Yumi Takahashi were all poisoned by him.

This also leads to the fact that every time Tsukasa Higashino appears, these little girls will snap and pull out the cassette of this two-player game, and replace it with another little savage who will throw an axe, eat an egg and ride a flying dragon.

This is a single-player game, and Tsukasa Higashino naturally can't intervene.

And in this time of coming and going, Christmas has quietly arrived...

Higashino didn't really care much about what Christmas was, but since it was a holiday, he naturally prepared gifts.

What is ready for Chihaya Higashino is the new console console - there are already console consoles in this era, and there are quite a few games.

Ryoka Konoe is a scarf, and the gifts to Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara are limited Sadako's merchandise and a new glasses case, respectively.

These are the gifts he has carefully chosen, and they should make the Konoe Lianghua a little happier.

After preparing all these things, Tsukasa Higashino put the gifts on the table and wanted to sit on the stove that was installed at the end of the year.

But before he could stretch his feet, the doorbell rang outside.

This made Tsukasa Higashino, who had just sat down, stand up and look out the door-

Then he was stunned to see Chihaya Higashino in a bloated Santa Claus dress.

It's really bloated, and it doesn't have the feeling of bare breasts and thighs that you usually see in Japanese anime.

Her whole person seemed to be wrapped in a red Santa Claus suit, although she had a beard on her face, but her beard was also crooked, and the whole thing was not like a four.

"What are you guys playing?" Tsukasa Higashino couldn't help but ask the three little girls standing behind Chihaya Higashino.

Ryoka Konoe, Yumi Takahashi, Aoi Fujiwara... They were all dressed in Christmas clothes, bloated like a big ball of meat, and Tsukasa Higashino looked at it with a puzzled face.

If you want to say anything, especially Higashino Chihaya, she looks like she is shaky and shaky, but she still has to pretend to be an urn, and her movements are clumsy: "I'm Santa Claus, Ace." ”

"......" Higashino didn't speak, just looked at her.

Seeing that Higashino Tsukasa didn't believe it at all, Higashino Chihaya panicked all of a sudden, she jumped up vigorously and turned around, for fear that Higashino Tsukasa would think that she was pretending: "I'm really Santa Claus, Ace, look, look!" ”

After saying this, she forcibly jumped several times.

Then, under the incredible gaze of Tsukasa Higashino and Ryoka Konoe, he fell to the ground with a 'snap'.

The fall was really painful, and Higashino felt the ground tremble.

Higashino Chihaya couldn't hold back at all at this time, and cried directly.

She cried and muttered incomprehensibly, "Ace used to say he likes Santa Claus... I think Ace would be happy to do this..."

As he spoke, he couldn't figure it out even more, and he had a feeling of 'taking a step back, the more he thought about it, the more he lost it', and he cried even louder.

She pretended to be Santa Claus because she really thought Higashino Tsukasa liked it.

As a result, Higashino Division's expression did not fluctuate, but he landed on his ass - it hurt to death.

Naturally, she was so aggrieved that she cried.
