Chapter 196. 20 million (8,000 words goal achieved)
Sure enough, at the morning meeting after the seats, the chairman of the school officially announced that Chiba Hotaru was temporarily acting as an art teacher, responsible for the responsibility of the acting teacher of the art department.
After saying this, Hotaru Chiba, who was on crutches, walked up from behind the curtain and looked at the students standing under the rostrum.
Obviously, this is not the first time she has faced this kind of scene, and there are many interviews about her on the Internet, so just introducing herself from the podium in a school, she doesn't have much fear and nervousness at all.
Chiba Hotaru's eyes swept first, and from all kinds of surprised students, she accurately found Beichuan Temple looking at her expressionlessly.
She nodded slightly in the direction of Kitagawa Temple and leaned closer to the microphone: "It's an honor for me to teach at Keihoku High School, and I hope that when I am temporarily acting as an art teacher, I can leave good memories with my classmates..."
Most of what she said was official and the students below were not interested in listening to it at all.
On the contrary, as soon as I saw her come out, the discussion broke out instantly.
"Hotaru Chiba?! Is that Hotaru Chiba? β
"You can see me here? I'm a fan of hers! β
"Chiba-sensei! Look here! Look here! β
β......β
When I first heard that it was Chiba Hotaru, the students below didn't believe it was me, but when I saw that she really appeared with a cane and began to narrate, the people below began to discuss.
That's Hotaru Chiba, who has been interviewed on TV and is a rising star in the painting world mentioned by many great painters.
The most important thing is that Chiba Hotaru is the same age as most of the students on the scene. And this kind of peer appeared directly as a teacher in Jingbei, how could this not make the students excited to discuss.
"Temple-kun, Chiba-sensei is because..."Kamiya Mirai approached the Kitagawa Temple beside him, and his voice was broken.
After thinking about it briefly, she roughly understood that Chiba Hotaru might have come to Kitagawa Temple.
Kitagawa Temple also just nodded: "I mentioned it yesterday, Miss Chiba is still as decisive as ever. β
Kamiya Miku didn't continue to ask after hearing this, she took two steps back thoughtfully, not knowing what she was thinking.
Hotaru Chiba's speech ended quickly.
The chairman of the board of directors came up again to speak some official face-to-face speeches, and the whole morning meeting scene dispersed in this atmosphere of excitement and frenzy.
As soon as Chiba Hotaru disappeared behind the scenes, a tall young woman wearing a big mask, sunglasses and a round hat came up and supported Chiba Hotaru, she listened to the discussion that the students did not calm down when they left the venue, and teased:
"It seems that Chiba-sensei is still very popular, I am really impressed with you, Hotaru."
Although this woman was teasing, her tone was full of decadence, and she couldn't hear any sense of vitality at all.
"You're making fun of me again." Chiba Hotaru sighed, looking at the young woman who had covered herself tightly and spoke: "If you take off your sunglasses, mask and hat, I estimate that Keihoku will be able to put together a concert immediately." β
"Haha... Then you really think highly of me, I haven't been active for nearly half a year. β
The young woman changed the subject in a sinister tone, and then she asked, "Who is the very powerful Beichuan Temple you are talking about?" I just hid on the other side and didn't notice. β
β... Sister Mika, you should have a snack on yourself. Didn't I show you a photo of Kitagawa seniors before? β
"I really didn't pay much attention... I'm sorry... It's true... I'm sorry. β
The voice of the young woman like a strong cheer made Chiba Hotaru's heart ache.
It took a long time for Chiba Hotaru to come to her with a cane and gently hold her palm: "Sister Mika, believe me, I will definitely not let you down this time." β
β... If I didn't believe Hotaru, I wouldn't be here. The woman laughed self-deprecatingly: "Anyway, I'm just a waste person now, forced by both sides." β
Hearing this, Chiba Hotaru held the other party's palm tightly, and the other party also held her palm.
It took a long time for the young woman to speak: "I'm really curious about that Beichuan Temple, but now it's not just the illness that restricts me. β
Chiba Hotaru's bright eyes dimmed for a moment, but she quickly regained her spirits, and this time she replied with ample confidence:
"I know. That's why I think you need to get in touch with Beichuan seniors, he can definitely help, Sister Mika, you must cheer up. β
"I hope so."
The young woman's gaze hidden behind large sunglasses is somewhat hollow.
In fact, she has already thought about her own path, and she has already decided where she will return, and it is difficult for outsiders to influence her.
As for promising Hotaru Chiba to come here... It's just a matter of not making your friends sad.
If you really want to leave, you have to let Hotaru's obsession go.
With this thought in her arms, she seemed to have a little spirit: "Let's go meet that 'Beichuan senior' earlier, to be honest, I am really more and more curious about him to make Hotaru so trusting." β
Treat Chiba Hotaru who can't cure her legs all over the place, and make Chiba Hotaru so respectful.
He... What kind of person is he?
The young woman was intrigued.
......
The morning class passed quickly, but the topic of Hotaru Chiba's detonation was passed from class to class.
Under this powerful communication offensive, it has attracted many students to get to know Chiba Hotaru.
Even people who don't like painting very much used to pretend to know Chiba Hotaru very well.
After all, this may be a conversation between the students of Jingbei High School in the future, so if you want to not be embarrassed during the discussion, it is better to get to know it.
"That's right, come here to teach Eri painting skills, and find opportunities to improve from the students." Kamiya Mirai said while taking out the bento cloth for Kitagawa Temple's specially made bento box.
"That's none of my business, everything depends on what to do with Eri."
Although it is not a one-on-one teaching, the master-apprentice relationship between Eri Kitagawa and Hotaru Chiba is still there, as long as Eri Kitagawa takes the initiative to ask, then it is impossible for Hotaru Chiba not to answer.
Even Kitagawa Temple guessed that Chiba Hotaru would be biased towards Eri Kitagawa -
But how much does that have to do with him?
Eri Kitagawa has her own choice, and she should be allowed to choose.
Thinking of this, Beichuan Temple no longer hesitated, and the chopsticks were about to pick up the tamagoyaki carefully prepared by Kamiya Future-
"Beichuan senior, it turns out that you are here."
"Chiba-sama?" Kitagawa Temple stood up and looked at Hotaru Chiba, who was walking from the other side.
Hotaru Chiba didn't come alone, she was accompanied by a young woman wearing a mask and hat with a 'Visitor' sign on her chest.
Judging purely by her height, this woman should be in her twenties.
"Hello Chiba-san."
"Yes, Miss Kamiya."
Hotaru Chiba greeted Miku Kamiya with a smile on her face.
It is also that there are relatively few people in the atrium now, and few people have noticed this side, otherwise it is estimated that many people will have to look here.
But if you stay here...
Kitagawa Temple was keenly aware that there were already eyes around him.
He covered the bento box and proposed, "Let's talk as we go." β
"I'm really sorry to disturb Beichuan senior's meal." Hotaru Chiba said embarrassedly.
"It's nothing, Miss Chiba is in such a hurry to find me, she should have something to tell me, right?"
As he spoke, Kitagawa Temple looked thoughtfully at the young woman on the other side.
β... Some of the things here are not easy to explain. There are a lot of people. Chiba Hotaru coughed dryly.
Mirai Kamiya shrewdly put forward his idea: "Then we can go to the grove behind the main building, where there are usually no people." β
β... Just go there, trouble the two to lead the way. β
The young woman finally spoke, her voice a little hoarse and weak, as if she had deliberately suppressed it like this.
A few people simply walked to the grove, and after Kitagawa Temple repeatedly confirmed that there was no one, Chiba Hotaru nodded to the women beside her.
The young woman no longer hesitated, raised her hand and took off her sunglasses and masks.
A female face with three dignified and five heroic looks appeared in front of Kitagawa Temple and Kamiya Mirai.
As soon as he saw the other party's face, Kamiya Miku couldn't help but let out a subtle cry:
"You're... Nakajima flowers? β
Her voice was low, as if she was afraid of being heard.
But the next thing that happened made Kamiya Miku completely change his face.
I saw that Beichuan Temple actually frowned, and asked incomprehensibly:
"Is Miss Nakajima famous?"
Well!?
This time, not only Kamiya Future, but even Chiba Hotaru was choked by the other party's words.
"Kitagawa senior... Don't you know Sister Mika? β
Hotaru Chiba said in an incredulous tone.
"Just saying the word 'Mikasa' is a bit impressive, and I mentioned it before." Kitagawa Temple said flatly.
β... Belch... But... But but..."Kamiya Mirai was on the side, but he didn't hold back for a long time, and finally he could only swallow his saliva: "Sijun is really an extraordinary person, and I haven't heard the name of Nakajima Mikasa." β
Beichuan Temple heard the words and looked up again.
These two people are really completely unreliable, so it is better to ask me directly, he turned to look at Nakajima Mikahana and asked directly: "Miss Nakajima, are you very famous?" β
A funny look appeared on Nakajima's face, she scratched her chin, and teased funny: "Kitagawa-kun, it's really complicated for me to ask me this question yourself." β
When she said this, she took on a decadent tone again, which made Beichuan Temple frown slightly when she heard it.
But considering that everyone has their own way of living, Kitagawa Temple is not obliged to talk more.
And his frowning expression also fell into Nakajima's gaze, and she also touched her nose a little embarrassed.
Ah... It seems that the first impression is a little not good.
Kamiya Mirai stepped forward at this time to popularize science for Beichuan Temple:
"Nakajima Mika, that is, the one in front of you, Sijun, is a famous female singer who has influenced our generation, and many music lovers have given her an exclusive nickname 'Sister Mika'."
"Sister Mika debuted with her unique singing skills, and she did not sign a contract with a music agency during the period, but with her excellent talent, she has a record of touring all over the world, and her composition "Wandering Flowers" also won the gold medal at the 45th Japan Record Awards, and was covered by people from many countries.
Kamiya Miku's expression is a little unnatural:
"Even if I listened to a lot of songs about Sister Mika, I didn't expect you to know."
Nakajima Mika is definitely an extremely legendary person.
made her debut as a lyricist and composer, during which she did not sign a contract with a music agency, but she went from zero to the status of the national female king of Japan.
Not to mention how difficult it is to compose lyrics and music by yourself, just by not signing a contract with a music agency, Nakajima Mika is destined to be a legend.
The songs she sings are not limited to the pop repertoire of love between men and women. Traditional songs, classical songs, and even light music composition, this genius is familiar with it.
But Kitagawa Temple actually said that he didn't know?
Say you don't know Nakajima flowers?
"Haha... What not to sign with a music agency... I didn't have that opportunity at all. Nakajima shook her head with a bit of self-deprecation: "Who doesn't want their path to success to be smoother?" Miss Kamiya, all you see is me introduced in the encyclopedia and the news. That's not who I really am. β
"Really?"
Nakajima's expression was a little depressed and decadent, which also made Kamiya have a question about the future.
That's why the other party suddenly stopped singing activities.
You must know that Nakajima Mika is in the rising period of her career, why did she stop her activities and fall silent?
Kamiya wanted to ask, but Nakajima's expression already said it all.
There may be something else hidden in this.
"I'm sorry to scare you." Nakajima Mika deserves to be a big star, and she had a slight gaffe just now, but she adjusted it in a moment, didn't care about her star status, and bowed to the two high school students and apologized.
Kitagawa Temple shook his head: "It's us who is abrupt, but I don't know if Miss Chiba has any idea for us to meet Miss Nakajima?" β
Even if he heard the other party's well-known reputation, Beichuan Temple still didn't say much, he still had the same voice as at the beginning, and his voice was calm.
But the other party's attitude didn't make Nakajima Mika make a fuss, she just picked the corners of her mouth upward.
Maintaining a humble attitude at all times is how she has improved the most.
But Nakajima Mika is not a soft-footed shrimp, on the contrary, she also has her own proud bones.
After all, for a person like her, who strives for excellence, she can be arrogant, but she can't be arrogant.
"Actuallyβ"
"Actually, I want to ask Kitagawa-kun for something."
Before Chiba Hotaru could finish speaking, Nakajima Mika spoke on her own.
"......" Hotaru Chiba closed her mouth after taking a deep look at Nakajima Mikahana.
Nakajima Mika bowed to Kitagawa Temple, and her tone became very calm:
"I want Kitagawa-kun to take care of me for half a year."
"In half a year, I will pay Beichuan-kun 20 million."
She straightened up and asked, "I don't know what Beichuan-kun thinks?" β
Million.
The request of the Female Heavenly King of the People.
Kitagawa Temple was silent.
