Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 144 The Moonlight Is So Beautiful (8000 words)

"I think I can do it."

Konoe Lianghua added another sentence.

Then she insisted on holding her head up for less than half a minute, then she immediately lowered her head and looked at her toes.

She was actually scared.

I am even more afraid than when I watched the first episode of "Midnight Ring", she is worried that she will be rejected by Higashino

If she was rejected, she even had the feeling that she would cry immediately.

Konoe Lianghua had never cried before, even if she was slapped a few times by her brother Konoe Ryoto last time, she gritted her teeth and endured it.

But this time, she really felt like crying.

If she was rejected, she felt that her tears would definitely not be able to hold back.

But even so, the body completely violated its own thoughts, and there was no intention of running away at all.

Roots also seemed to take root under my feet, and I couldn't move away.

Even Konoe Lianghua herself was a little surprised.

Have you become more courageous?

Seeing Konoe Lianghua lowering his head in less than half a minute after being strong, Higashino was taken aback for a moment, and then finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

Yes, although he was a little unfriendly to Konoe Lianghua, he still couldn't help it.

At first, I thought you suddenly changed someone, but I didn't expect that you were still the limp Konoe Lianghua before.

Hearing Higashinoji's laughter, Konoe Lianghua's confidence suddenly collapsed.

How can anyone laugh out loud when listening to a confession?

She bit her lower lip, her complexion suddenly darkened, and her eyes were misty, as if she would cry immediately as soon as she got a reply from Dong Yesi.

But soon, she heard Dong Yesi's voice.

"I think you can do it too, Lianghua."

"Hey?"

When Konoe Lianghua heard these words, she raised her head in astonishment.

For a moment, she thought she had heard wrong.

And the name Lianghua

Usually Higashino Division called her Konoe classmate.

"I said I think you can do it too." Higashino replied thoughtfully.

Yes, he didn't say that just because of Konoe Lianghua's appearance, but he had a similar idea before.

Konoe Lianghua likes her, anyone with a discerning eye can tell.

Several little girls in the studio were asking themselves if they were talking about boyfriend and girlfriend with Konoe Lianghua.

So it's normal for Higashino Division to have this consideration.

But it was just thinking about it before.

After all, Konoe Lianghua has a really good personality, and she is also kind and upright.

Higashinoji is also a normal man, so it's not like he hasn't thought about his girlfriend.

But honestly speaking, this was the first time that Konoe Lianghua took the initiative to put things on the table.

You must know that Konoe Lianghua is usually so thin-skinned that she fell into a 'fever' state after a few words of teasing, not to mention her face was red, even her neck was red.

She would take the initiative to find herself, and then mention this kind of thing, which is really very brave.

Even Higashinoji was somewhat teased by her unbiased straight ball.

"Uh"

Konoe Liangka, who was stupefied by Higashinoji's "I think you can do it" until now, finally came back to his senses.

She looked at Dong Yesi, her face was hot, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

Because she really likes Higashinoji

This feeling did not come suddenly, but slowly fermented with time.

Teaching painting, beating Ryoto Konoe, and helping to broaden her social circle

Although Higashinoji told her not to worry about it, she had already remembered all these things.

If you like it, you like it. She can't fake it.

"Higashi, Higashino-san, can I like you?"

Konoe Lianghua asked cautiously, her eyes were too shy to open.

She hesitated, she didn't know where to put her little hands, so she could only pull at the corner of her clothes awkwardly, and said very stupidly, "Please date me!"

After saying this, even Konoe Lianghua couldn't help blushing more than half.

God knows how she said that!Maybe it was affected by the previous atmosphere?

Normally she would never tell.

Seeing Konoe Suzuka's shy and pretty appearance, Higashino couldn't help but think of the origin of the famous sentence "the moonlight is so beautiful" by the great writer Natsume Soseki in his previous life.

It is said that the Japanese are generally shy and reserved, so I replaced "I love you" with "the moonlight is so beautiful".

Because "moonlight" has a certain degree of homophony with the Roman sound of "like".

But that's not the case in Higashinoji's view.

It's not that the Japanese are shy and reserved, but Konoe Suzuka is a shy and reserved person.

So he turned to look at the night sky that was gradually darkening, and the moon that appeared at an unknown time, and said softly: "The moonlight is so beautiful."

This sentence is actually a very common sentence, in Dong Yesi's opinion, it doesn't have any emotional appeal, but it is very appropriate to use it on this occasion.

But maybe it's the reason why girls in love are all silly.

So when Konoe Lianghua heard these words, she just blinked her eyes in a strange way and let out an 'ah'.

this silly

Higashino was a little speechless.

The pretty good atmosphere was mostly ruined by Konoe Lianghua's simple word 'hey'.

So he simply pinched Konoe Lianghua's cheek and pulled her closer: "I mean, I like you. If you still don't understand, I'll explain to you again——Can you be me?" Girlfriend, be my wife in the future and give me children! You should understand now, right?"

The menacing appearance made the timid Konoe Lianghua straighten his body immediately, and nodded in panic: "Understood! Understood!"

It's just that because Higashino Division pinched her cheek, she was also slurring her speech.

"" Higashino Division.

Well, Konoe Lianghua finally had a first love, Higashinoji originally wanted to have some romantic talk for her.

As a result, I couldn't hold back all of a sudden, and the atmosphere suddenly collapsed.

There is no such confession.

"Really" Higashinoji thought it was funny, so he let go of his hand, and touched Konoe Lianghua's head again.

Seeing Higashinoji's hand stretched out, Konoe Lianghua originally wanted to hide.

But being stared at by the other party, Konoe Lianghua didn't dare to move.

"Can't I touch my girlfriend's head?" Dongyesi asked her back.

"Uh huh." Konoe Lianghua nodded in a daze.

Seeing her vague and naive look, Dong Yesi also felt a little helpless-does this guy understand?

But it was too late now, Dong Yesi looked at the time, and it was already past seven o'clock.

He also knew that Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi were hiding in the corner of the stairs ahead.

It's not good to keep them waiting, so Higashino just patted her on the head: "Go back quickly."

"Hey?"

"Hey what?" Dong Yesi pointed at her two buddies, inexplicably amused: "Do you want me to take you home?"

"No, no need! I'll go home by myself!"

Hearing Higashinoji's words, "Send you home", Konoe Lianghua woke up from the muddy state, and she ran to Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi cutely, her back seemed to be running away.

"This stupid"

Higashino Division sighed, expressing his anxiety for his unreliable girlfriend.

But he didn't think too much about it.

After all, with Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi by her side, nothing will happen to her.

He waved at Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi before turning around and returning to the room.

"It's all your fault! Shorty! Look, you must have been exposed!"

Seeing Higashino Division waving to herself, Takahashi Yumi immediately realized that her peeking was known, so she immediately blamed Fujiwara Aoi.

"What do you mean I exposed it? Didn't you grow too tall, you stupid pig? Forget it because you are big so you can be spotted easily. You don't understand if you say it, the guy who was at the bottom of the exam."

Fujiwara Aoi replied angrily, and the two looked at Konoe Lianghua who came back panting.

"Lianghua, you are so powerful, you just rushed over while I was not paying attention."

Yumi Takahashi spoke first, with a look of admiration: "I saw Mr. Higashino's expression, and he seemed to be stunned too. Uh, what's wrong with you?"

She paused in the middle of speaking, with a strange expression on her face.

Because Konoe Lianghua in front of him had a dull face, his eyes were glazed over, and he looked like he had no love in his life.

"Did the confession fail?" Fujiwara Aoi next to him looked at Konoe Lianghua's expression and couldn't help but said with concern: "It's okay, Lianghua, it's just this time that the confession failed. There will be chances in the future, Higashino-san He’s a good boy, and he really needs to work on it.”

Takahashi Yumi also responded, with a serious face: "Yes, yes, there is a good saying, as long as you work hard, flowers can also be planted on cow dung."

"shut up!"

What kind of nonsense is this talking about?

Fujiwara Aoi couldn't help turning around and scolding Takahashi Yumi.

"No." Konoe Lianghua shook her head, looked at Fujiwara Aoi and the others hesitantly: "I seem to have successfully confessed my confession."

"Hey—? Isn't this a good thing? Then you are Mr. Higashino's girlfriend now, right?"

Facing the expectant eyes of Takahashi Yumi and Fujiwara Aoi, Konoe Suzuka also shook his head in confusion: "I don't know either."

what?

You do not know?

You don't know whether you confessed success or failure?Shouldn't it?

Now it's not just Takahashi Yumi, even Fujiwara Aoi, who has always been calm, showed a look of incomprehension when he heard these outrageous words.

And this kind of thing?

"It's just that Dong Ye said something to me, and I don't know what it means."

Konoe Lianghua was very confused.

"What?" Fujiwara Aoi asked first.

"The moonlight is so beautiful." Konoe Lianghua said.

"Ah? What?" Fujiwara Aoi glanced at the moon behind her. Tonight's night sky looked really beautiful.

But that's not what we're talking about, is it?

"No, that's what he said to me, 'The moonlight is beautiful.'"

"Is the moonlight so beautiful?"

Fujiwara Aoi understood what the other party meant, frowned and began to wonder what this sentence meant.

The moonlight is so beautiful, the moonlight is so beautiful, what does this have to do with confession?

Wait a moment.

"Could it be possible that Higashino-san wanted to express this meaning?"

Fujiwara Aoi’s grades in Guowen are still good, so I just read it twice and realized: “‘Moon’ and ‘like’ can be regarded as homonyms in a sense, which means that this is a hidden confession, so romantic.”

When it came to the end, Fujiwara Aoi couldn't help sighing.

There is something romantic about it.

The lovers walked under the moonlight, the man looked at the moonlight, then at the woman, and said, "The moonlight is so beautiful."

The atmosphere and subtle taste are instantly reflected.

This is simply a confession!

Even Takahashi Yumi, who didn't quite understand next to her, nodded repeatedly when she heard it, praising Higashino-sensei as worthy of being Higashino-sensei, and even thinking of such boring literary words.

"Is that what you mean?"

After listening to Aoi Fujiwara's explanation, Konoe Lianghua realized it.

She had good grades in the school year, but after listening to Fujiwara Aoi's explanation, of course she understood immediately.

It turns out that the moonlight is so beautiful, and there is such a meaning?

Recalling that I heard Higashinoji's words just now, not only did he not express anything, but he even said a silly 'ah'?With a cry, Konoe Lianghua's cheeks that had finally cooled down began to heat up rapidly again.

It's no wonder that Dongyesi looked at him with inexplicable eyes before leaving.

really stay alone

Higashinoji didn't know that Konoe Suzuka and Takahashi Yumi were discussing the true beauty of the moonlight.

After he returned home, he continued to work on the "Victor Is Justice" cartoon.

After all, for Dong Yesi, confession is confession, work is work, and the two still have to draw a clear line.

His credo is to finish the matter at hand first, and then think about other things.

After yesterday's hard work, he has already touched four pages of the first chapter of "The Winner Is Justice".

Definitely catch up before next week.

"I don't know how that Mr. Kimoto Fuji is doing."

As Higashino Division was drawing, he thought of the tree vine mentioned by the editor-in-chief of Fuji Publishing House Shinji Furuta.

He was actually a little curious.

Because it is serialized in the same period, and Kimoto Teng, like him, also belongs to the lawyer profession type manga.

So Higashinoji is actually quite interested in what kind of work the other party will produce.

And at the same time as he was thinking.

On the other side, in a small three-story detached building near Bunkyo District——

"It's very interesting, it's really interesting. Mr. Kimoto Fuji, this "Lawyer Trap" is really interesting."

Furuta Shinji looked at the manuscript in his hand and nodded with satisfaction.

Really interesting cartoon.

A lost lawsuit dragged the hero of the elite lawyer down the quagmire. During constant inquiries and investigations, he discovered that the lost lawsuit was secretly arranged by someone, and the purpose was to drag him into a situation where he could not stand up. quagmire.

In this situation, the male protagonist gritted his teeth and fought hard to catch up, not forgetting justice and truth in the struggle in the quagmire

The overall rhythm is very fast, but a lot of foreshadowing has been laid in the first episode, which makes the follow-up full of expectations.

As for the setting of the lawyer hero with a strong sense of justice

It's old-fashioned, but it works pretty well.

"In this way, maybe I can meet that Higashino-sensei from Urashima Publishing House."

Furuta Shinji muttered to himself.

　Thank you Shangui for not listening to the [-] starting point coins reward!Thank you so much!
