Tsukasa Higashino obviously didn't know what Hosoya Koharu had been through in the past two days.

But now that the news has come from there, it means that there is still some hope.

He walked out the door in a relaxed mood, and even the apartment manager outside, who always liked to shout, was particularly pleasing to the eye.

Tokyo, Japan, 2003.

In this day and age, there is no WIFI, no smartphones.

Japan had just emerged from the effects of the 1997 Asian financial crisis, and everything felt like it was crumbling and hollowing out.

It took Tsukasa Higashino, a person who traveled over in 2020, to adapt to Tokyo in 2003.

He walked on the side of the slope, and from time to time a high school girl with dyed hair walked past him, and her face was childish with childish pride in her exaggerated makeup.

This is the Shibuya trend that has been popular in Japan for a long time at the beginning of the 21st century.

In Japan in 2003, high school girls wearing folded bubble stockings, dyed hair, and shiny nails and diamonds on their hands could be seen on the streets and alleys.

High school girls pursue adult behavior and desperately try to mature themselves.

As a result, it became this nondescript appearance.

But these girls in Japan don't know it, and they think it's a trend and it's very fashionable.

So 'wrong again and again'.

In my memory, it seems that the Shibuya trend was going to be a big hit in 2004.

But to be honest, Higashino didn't understand what was so nice about the heavy makeup of this ghost drawing.

He shook his head, shaking the clutter out of his mind.

The school that Higashino Tsukasa is going to is called Kita-Gijuku Private High School, and the students are referred to as Kita-Gijuku.

As a well-known private school in the surrounding area, Kita-Gijuku High School has abundant teachers and teaching equipment.

This school is famous for its art and sports students, music, and art, all of which have won the National High School Youth Award.

I heard that the judo of Kita Yoshijuku is also going to target the national competition recently, and it is considered a prestigious school in Meguro Ward.

The original owner had good grades in school, and with a handsome face, he was also very popular.

But since the Higashino family suffered from a serious illness, and Higashino Chihaya suffered from mental illness, the girls who stuck to the original owner at the beginning were like seeing flies and avoided him.

After all, for these little girls who are already a little vain, their 'boyfriend' suddenly has a mentally handicapped sister in their family... Who can stand this?

But Tsukasa Higashino didn't care.

Without these high school 'tablets' dangling around me, I ended up idle.

As for why a tablet...? Isn't that obvious? How good do you expect to be in shape as a high school student?

Most of the girls' bodies in Japanese cartoons are deceitful, don't believe you can find a Celestial High School right now, take a look inside-

Wow, aren't all tablets? There is no situation where Japanese girls develop so much better than Celestial Girls.

When he came to the classroom, the sweltering heat in his face made Higashino Tsukasa squint.

It's summer, and not to mention the heat in Tokyo, there's a damp feeling in the air.

Coupled with the number 30 people in the classroom, everyone exhaled and exhaled together, and the whole body was stuffy, and there was an indescribable feeling.

The key is that the electric fans in his class A classroom also collectively announced a strike, and the three smooth electric fan blades swayed and rotated, and the crunching sound was upsetting.

As soon as he entered the classroom, Tsukasa Higashino could feel the gaze poking at him from all directions.

It's something that can't be helped.

Chiba Higashino was also a celebrity in the North Yoshijuku before, after all, people are very beautiful.

Later, after she suffered from mental illness, many people used her as a topic of conversation after dinner, and looking at Higashino Division's eyes, there was an inexplicable psychological advantage.

Tsukasa Higashino clearly didn't care about these stares.

He came to his seat, and was about to sit down—

"Hey, Higashino, someone was looking for you just now."

Someone from behind patted Higashino on the shoulder.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Gohara-san, I don't know which classmate it is?" Tsukasa Higashino asked.

The boy in front of him is named Hou Yuanzhong, wears big glasses, is upright, and has a good relationship with the original owner, although he is not a dead friend, but he can also be regarded as a first-class friend.

When he first crossed over, Higashino Tsukasa also took out a lot of information about the original owner from his mouth.

"It's your girlfriend... She asked you to go to the back of the teaching building at noon. ”

Hou Yuanzhong glanced at Tsukasa Higashino, hesitated for a moment and then leaned closer and said, "I'll tell you something, Higashino, this time your girlfriend probably came over to break up with you." ”

"Huh?" Higashino Tsukasa was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Really? ”

He knew that the original owner had a girlfriend.

But this month, he has been busy getting acquainted with the new environment, and he has not bothered to pay attention to this girlfriend at all.

So he hung the other party for a month, and if he didn't mention it, he would have forgotten it.

Higashino Shile looked very happy.

He certainly wouldn't be upset.

Tsukasa Higashino has long passed the age of 'first love equals lifelong love', and he is also very open to emotional things.

It is also the right of the other party to want to break up.

What hypocrisy, crying, grief-stricken ... None of this had anything to do with him.

After all, there is also a problem with Higashino Division, who left the other party dry for a month for no reason, and it is normal for the other party to want to break up.

But Hou Yuanzhong didn't know these situations, and was baffled by his happy appearance.

No... Your girlfriend is going to break up with you, why are you still so happy and gloating? Acting like my girlfriend is going to break up with me?

Wrong!

Hou Yuanzhong suddenly realized.

He probably understood.

Tsukasa Higashino: This probably doesn't want to let himself see his sad side.

After all, once this high school breaks up, it means that they will never see each other again.

Alas!!!

Gohara Nakazai sighed heavily in his heart, and reached out and patted Higashino Tsukasa on the shoulder: "I understand, when Higashino comes out after school, I will invite you to eat." ”

"I have something to do after school."

Tsukasa Higashino waved his hand.

He was telling the truth, he wanted to bring Chihaya Higashino to the school, which would inevitably require the approval of the school.

Of course, this approval will definitely not be simple, and it is impossible for the principal to open this back door for Tsukasa Higashino.

Recently, however, I heard that there is a national high school youth painting festival in Tokyo, and the gold content is quite high.

After all, the North School is an art and sports school, and it attaches great importance to these external honor things.

If Higashino Tsukasa can directly cut the gold reward, maybe he will be able to have some say and negotiate the matter of Higashino Chihaya.

He's going to go to the principal's office at noon today, and if it goes well, he'll go to the art room in the afternoon.

As a former professional painter who has also held several exhibitions, Tsukasa Higashino is expected to have no problem winning the gold award.

But then Harazhong understood again, and felt that he had been dumped, and he just wanted to be quiet and quiet.

He sighed heavily in front of Tsukasa Higashino again, patted Tsukasa Higashino on the shoulder, his face changed, he smiled, turned around and called his girlfriend, and asked her if she was going to dinner this afternoon.

Higashino didn't pay attention to the actions of Gohara Naka's show, and just planned a plan of action for today's day in his heart.

First of all, go to the back of the teaching building at noon to quickly deal with the relationship problems.

Then go to the principal's office again and discuss with the principal about Chihaya Higashino.

If all goes well, go to the art room in the afternoon to check on the situation.
