Chapter 237: Himeno and Nanamiya
"It's strange, and you don't pretend to be anything that will kill me?"
After going out, Naoki Natsume walked through a street with a steady pace and the same state as usual, until he could not see himself from any window of the house, and then stopped to open his schoolbag to check.
After the zipper was opened, there were six neat single books, and he didn't need to pull it to know that it was "Jockey Xuanzu", because it was too familiar, he turned these books hundreds of times, and he could tell which one was which one from the thickness, the newness of the side paper, etc.
In addition to the booklet, there are some items that are necessary for today, such as paintbrushes for painting, which were prepared when I decided to sign up after returning home last night.
After all, I'm not sure if I will learn skills directly from Mr. Nanami after signing up, and I'm not sure if the painting class will prepare these things or say that I will pay for them.
Even if you don't need to prepare yourself, you can take it home as an after-school practice.
At least Naoki Natsume never has the habit of putting all his studies in class, and even more than 70% of his study time is squeezed out of the sponge by himself after class.
Get on the train at Mikagebashi Station, take the famous cherry blossom sightseeing route Toden Arakawa Line, and transfer to the Yamanote Line at Otsuka, about 30 minutes away, Naoki Natsume gets off at Hamamatsucho.
The bustling scenery is more eye-catching than the single-family villas on the Kanda River, after all, it is a commercial mecca near Odaiba, and there are more than a dozen or twenty izakaya in the vicinity alone.
Not far to the north is the Imperial Palace, but unfortunately it is hidden by high-rise buildings, but the Tokyo Tower to the west stands tall and tall, no matter what direction, as long as you lie on the window facing west, you can see it.
Hamamatsucho Nishi 1-chome, is the address of Mr. Nanami's painting class, in a high-end community, renting a villa of several hundred square meters as the base of the painting class.
Maybe it's not rental, Natsume Naoki thought to himself after coming to the community, the actual person in charge of this tutorial class on the business card is Himeno, a teacher who teaches painting at Todai, who is good at sketching, and often flies around the world with well-known young painters to sketch, and the places he has been to are too many to count on his fingers, and it is said that he just returned from the Maldives not long ago, and vowed never to go again before the Maldives was flooded.
The reason why I feel that this villa is not rented may have something to do with Himeno.
Naoki Natsume went to check the Internet after giving him the business card of the painting class in Asai.,Check the level of painters on the business card except for Mr. Nanami.,I found that almost all of these artists are top-notch.,It's just that their fields are different.。
Among them, Himeno, who is in charge of the lead, is powerful and really rich, living a life of drunken money.
This reminded him of Nanami School Doctor, who also seems to enjoy luxury, spending money and spending lavishly every day.
Thinking of the school doctor inexplicably, Naoki Natsume suddenly realized a problem, the salary of the school doctor in the university should not be too high, so where did the school doctor of Nanami get so much money to squander?
While thinking, he explained the situation to the security guard and entered the community.
"Why haven't you arrived yet? There will be new students coming today! ”
On the second floor of a large villa, Himeno paced his bedroom with his hair tousled.
She was talking on the phone, deliberately lowering her voice, and there were students on the first floor who came to study practicing drawing.
They said they were students, but in fact, there were a lot of people in the society, and only two of the five or six people were college students, and Himeno was their mentor to the art department of Todai, and the rest were people who were engaged in the art industry in the society to study and improve their professional skills.
Naoki Natsume guessed right, this is not Himeno's rented villa, but her home in Shibuya.
Using her own home as a venue can save a lot of money and not worry about commuting, such as when she sleeps until now, and goes to the lone guard to clean up while talking on the phone.
"Didn't they learn sketching?" Nanami's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone: "It's rare that I don't need to be on duty at school today, and it's a little too unsatisfactory to force me to get up early." ”
"But you're a teacher!" Himeno didn't even mention that he had just gotten up, "I really didn't need you today, the students who came in the morning learned sketching, and in the afternoon they came to teach board painting covers, and very few children who learned comics came...... But the new students who are coming today are different, and they are coming for you. ”
Himeno thought about the connections from the Amamiya Foundation, and felt that this student couldn't be lazy: "The backstage is very hard, so I have to give some face." ”
After a long time, Nanamiya yawned and replied, "Okay, I know, but I'm looking at your face, so it's not a backstage and relationship." ”
Himeno breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that with her temper she would refuse this new student who had just come in a relationship.
At the end, before hanging up the phone, Himeno thought of something and decided to fight again: "Xiaoye, are you really not going to teach oil painting?" I remember that you painted oil painting very well before, why did you suddenly stop painting? ”
Nanamiya on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and then replied, "Because I don't want to draw anymore." ”
"Okay...... I know the temper, and the things I decide are useless no matter how much others persuade them. But be sure to let me know if you change your mind at any point. Himeno sighed, his voice much softer.
"Ding Dong!"
A doorbell rang on the first floor.
"That's it, you drive carefully on the road, my students should be here." Himeno hung up the phone, ran out of the bedroom and shouted to the first floor on the railing on the second floor, please wait, and then hurriedly ran back to the lone guard and combed his hair in the mirror, making sure that the image was not so unbearable, so he went downstairs.
"Don't look at the hustle and bustle, concentrate on drawing, I'll check you later." Himeno said a few words to the students who were painting death gray plaster and scarves, and then opened the door to the villa.
"Hello, is this a painting training institution?" Naoki Natsume saw that it was a woman who opened the door, he was stunned at first, but a happy expression appeared on his face: "My name is Naoki Natsume, and I was introduced to sign up for study!" ”
"Natsume, I've heard about it, come in and tell me."
Himeno led him into his villa, poured him a glass of water, and the two sat in the living room and talked.
"You're looking for a relationship with the Amamiya Foundation, right?" Himeno smiled and said: "I also have cooperation with their company, since Miss Amamiya has already spoken, then the matter of signing up is a certainty, you only need to explain to me a simple personal information and study direction, and I will make a study plan for you." ”
Naoki Natsume asked, "Then how do you pay the tuition?" ”
"No, Miss Amamiya has already paid your tuition when she said hello, you just need to study with peace of mind."
Himeno's words made Natsume Naoki stunned, but when you think about it, it's unexpected.
With the temperament and style of a little rich woman, it would be unbelievable if she didn't pay this money for her.
Naoki Natsume silently wrote down this matter in his heart, and when he found an opportunity to exchange money or something else in the future, this favor can't be owed, and he owes a lot......
Hiss.
If you owe too much, it's a big deal to make a promise?
It doesn't seem to be a loss.
Putting these behind for the time being, Naoki Natsume looked at Himeno with a sincere expression.
"Nanami-sensei, I'm a fan of yours, and I'm here to study for you this time!"
