Thinking about this problem, Hojo Shinoko didn't say a word until the station, just silently sucked the green juice bubble tea.

She glanced at the tram, turned her head and said, "Senior Qingze, then I'll go back first." ”

"Hmm."

Qing Ze waved his hand.

Hojo Shinoko stepped into the women's carriage, and with a sweep of her eyes, she found an empty seat, sat down, and put the food she had bought at her feet.

She glanced at the green bubble tea in her hand, and there was actually a small half.

Even if she was drinking unconsciously, the habit of drinking in small sips made her unable to consume too much milk tea every time.

Get used to it.

Hojo Shinoko thought to herself, her eyes swept over the carriages around her, and there was a group of well-dressed young girls laughing and talking.

There are also some elderly office workers who sit there silently to relieve the fatigue of going to work.

Hojo Shinoko retracted her gaze, and suddenly had an answer in her heart.

Sure enough, it's still different.

With her, Qingze's seniors should only have that bland atmosphere, and they can't experience the excitement of a roller coaster.

Her character is very well-behaved, and in the eyes of the world, abiding by the rules is linked to boredom and stuffiness.

Diligence and thrift are not much of an advantage.

At least, Hojo Shinoko is deeply aware of this, and when she used to talk to someone about that kind of thing, the other party's face would show an expression that she didn't understand what you were talking about.

Is this a topic for girls to talk about?

High school girls don't get together to discuss what fish is right for the market and what the meat looks like is fresh.

How much money can you buy vegetables that won't be slaughtered as fat sheep?

Hojo Shinoko has tried to talk to many people before, but the feedback he got was not very good.

She also knows that her personality is very boring.

But she didn't have the idea of changing.

The reason for this is that she herself is used to this, and she is used to insulating herself from trendy topics.

Get used to doing what you plan every day.

A plan that is boring in the eyes of outsiders, for Hojo Shinoko, there is a small sense of accomplishment every time she completes it.

Occasionally, she would envy girls who were dressed up beautifully, or who could smile and chat unscrupulously in front of others.

It's just that the thought of doing that too, Hojo Shinoko's heart will fall into an inexplicable entanglement.

That is, what kind of topics should be talked about so as not to affect others?

For example, at the moment she has no aversion to the topics that young women talk about, but she observes that middle-aged women in office workers show a trace of impatience with the topics that those women talk about, but they don't have seizures.

Hojo Shinoko wondered, if she also learned to speak with those people, would she disturb others?

Thinking of this, the brave step she tried to take was immediately withdrawn, and because of this, Mihime of Phoenix Temple looked particularly shining in the eyes of Hojo Shinoko.

That person and himself are the other extreme.

Every time she sees Mei Ji of Phoenix Temple, Hojo Shinoko will have a trace of envy in her heart, but she will not want to be such a person.

Because she knew very well that she couldn't do that kind of thing.

The train moved forward silently, and Hojo Shinoko lowered her head, drinking green bubble tea, tasting the cold sweetness on the tip of her tongue.

That's it.

Hojo Shinoko repeated in her heart what she had said she didn't know how many times.

……

Return to Hojo's house.

Hojo Shinoko unscrewed the door, and there was a pair of women's shoes in the hallway, apparently the sister-in-law came.

She closed the door with her backhand and shouted inside, "Ernie, is Sayuri Yoshikawa senpai here?" ”

"Hi ~ Shinoko-chan, it's me who come~"

Sayuri Yoshikawa poked her head out of Tetsuji Hojo's room, smiled brightly, and waved at her.

"Good morning, Yoshikawa-senpai."

Hojo Shinoko bowed, she was quite fond of this future sister-in-law.

This person is more sincere than himself, not the kind of restraint with rules, but innocence from the heart.

Say whatever you want in your heart, treat everyone sincerely, and even if you know that you will get hurt, you will not change your ways.

In the eyes of Hojo Shinoko, this is a very powerful performance.

Sayuri Yoshikawa smiled: "Shinoko-chan, you don't have to be so restrained, every time you meet, it looks like you meet for the first time, just call me Sayuri." ”

"This is too rude, if you are not satisfied with that title, then my name is sister-in-law?"

Hojo Shinoko tilted her head and asked with a serious face.

Sayuri Yoshikawa's fair cheeks quickly turned red, and she stammered a little when she spoke: "This, this is too early, we haven't received the certificate yet." ”

Tetsuji Hojo also hurriedly ran out of the house and shouted, "Shinoko, don't say that kind of thing, call Sayuri-sama for the time being." ”

"Yes, yes, call me Sayuri!"

Sayuri Yoshikawa immediately straightened up and patted her flat chest, wanting to show the demeanor of a reliable big sister.

Hojo Shinoko looked at the two of them and thought, this way is another thing from the imaginary love of Aozawa's predecessors, right?

She feels that Ernie and Yoshikawa-senpai are more like the kind of romance that is a sworn friend.

Two people have the same interests and the same personalities, and there are many topics that can be said, that is, occasionally mentioning the relationship between men and women will make the two blush.

It's incredible to be in love.

Hojo Shinoko sighed in her heart, the expression on her face was as quiet as a lake without a trace of waves, and said, "Yes, Sayuri-san, are you going out on a date?" ”

"Hmm."

Tetsuji Hojo nodded.

Sayuri Yoshikawa's face turned even redder, and he said, "Tetsuji, I'll go out and wait for you first." ”

She hurried out of here.

Tetsuji Hojo scratched his head and said, "Shinoko, I drew six original manga manuscripts, please trouble you to color." ”

"Hey, please leave it to me."

Hojo Shinoko nodded and watched as the eldest brother and Sayuri Yoshikawa left the house.

The door closed, and she withdrew her gaze and placed the dish in her hand in the kitchen.

It's still early, and she's not in a hurry to cook these dishes.

Hojo Shinoko goes to her eldest brother's bedroom and finds the original manga manuscript that needs to be colored from the desk.

She took a look at the plot.

Compared with the previous plots, after the relationship is officially confirmed, the comic plot of the eldest brother is very sweet, and it belongs to the kind of sweetness that makes the corners of the mouth can't help but curl up after reading it, and wants to roll on the bed.

The Galaxy Self-Defense Force has become the Galaxy Love Team.

This is also the wonderful change brought about by love.

A trace of curiosity suddenly flashed in Hojo Shinoko's heart, if she was also in love, would she be able to make any changes?

Or will it remain the way it is?

She thought about it, but didn't get an answer, so she took out the original comic manuscript, ink, and brush and colored it.

……

After finishing the coloring work, it was time for lunch, and since she was eating alone, she didn't do any complicated cooking, but just used the leftovers from the morning to make a shrimp fried rice.

On the table, she took out a pair of chopsticks, folded her hands and said, "I'm moving." ”

There was no response from the air, which was also a normal thing, and she was the only one sitting here.

Hojo Shinoko lowered her head to eat and did not look at her phone.

She doesn't use TikTok, YouTube, Twitter and other apps much.

The most commonly used software for her mobile phone is LINE, which is also because of Xia Hua and Qing Ze.

Hojo Shinoko is the kind of girl who can live without relying on her mobile phone.

After eating the shrimp fried rice, she picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth.

Ding Dong, the phone screen on the desktop lights up.

Hojo Shinoko unlocks it and discovers that it is Natsuka's message, "Shinoko, did you just finish lunch now?" ”

"Hey, do you have something to do?"

"No, I just want to make sure I'm right."

Yanamachi Natsuka's writing is as cheerful and boring as ever, but Hojo Shinoko doesn't feel any boredom, but patiently answers every question Natsuka.

"Congratulations, you guessed it right."

"It's not a fulfillment at all, your daily schedule is as precise as the calendar on the wall."

Yanagimachi Natsuka complained, lying on the bed, surrounded by a bedroom full of pink girlish atmosphere.

It's just that there are handsome photos of all kinds of mature men hanging on the walls.

The air conditioner released so that she could hold a bear of equal height in the summer, "This is not an activity that a girl should have in the summer, you hurry up and give me a high spirit."

Going grocery shopping on time every morning, no change, that's not what we should do. ”

"Xia Hua, I can't say that there are no changes, I'm shopping for vegetables with Qingze seniors in the morning."

"Eh, I haven't heard of this kind of thing, when did you develop that kind of relationship with Qing Ze's seniors to buy vegetables together?"

Yanagimachi Natsuka, who was still lying on her stomach, quickly became full of curiosity, sat up and pressed the bear's head on her hips, and crossed her two snow-white legs, "Are you holding hands when you buy groceries, or are you shoulder-to-shoulder?" ”

After such news was sent, Yanamachi Natsuka felt that words alone could not satisfy her strong desire to pursue gossip.

She initiates a voice call directly.

After being connected, Yanagimachi Natsuka said with curiosity on her face: "Quick, be honest, don't hide anything." ”

"Xia Hua, it's not what you think, it's just that Qingze's seniors also need to go grocery shopping every day when they are on vacation, and then we agreed to go to the Adachi Market in Kitasenju together, and I will bargain for him and save some money."

"Cut, is that all?"

"At the end, Qingze's seniors will buy me a cup of milk tea to drink, which will be counted as a return."

"Isn't this just dating?!"

Suddenly shouting at Yanagimachi Natsuka, Hojo Shinoko blinked, and said with some doubts: "Natsuka, I just went to the vegetable market with Aozawa seniors to buy vegetables." ”

"Shinoko, let me ask you, is visiting the vegetable market a place that makes you relax and happy?"

"Hmm."

"The place where men and women go on a date is a place to relax and be happy, and you still say that you and Qingze seniors are not dating?"

Natsuka Yanamachi swears that she has to push behind her back to make Hojo Shinoko realize that she is dating Aozawa-senpai.

Hojo Shinoko retorted: "But Aozawa's seniors should not be interested in the vegetable market. ”

"But he doesn't hate buying groceries with you, and inviting you to drink milk tea afterwards is ironclad proof."

Hojo Shinoko was silent, and once again thought of Aosawa senior's view of love.

What exactly was I expecting?

She was confused and didn't know how to answer.
