Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 266 Is there a problem (4000 words)
The choice of tourist destinations is still more particular about this aspect.

Although Takahashi Yumi and Fujiwara Aoi said that it is up to them to choose, but it is really better to choose a place that is more in line with their two interests.

There must be coastal scenery, and there must be some historical cities and ruins in the area.

Dong Yesi also made some considerations about this.

It's just that before Dong Yesi thought it through, someone came to the door.

"Teacher Yamauchi?" Higashino did not expect that the first floor of Yamauchi in Musashino Art University would be the one who took the initiative to visit, which surprised him somewhat.

Higashino still remembers the fact that the other party helped him sign up for the Japan Art Creation Award.

"Visiting rashly, please forgive me, Mr. Higashino." The first floor of Yamauchi replied with a smile.

With the image of Kumamon, Higashino Tsukasa, who won the Ministry of Science and Technology Minister's Award, is now fully worthy of his "teacher".

"You don't need to be so polite, who is behind you, Mr. Yamauchi?" Higashinoji turned to look at the middle-aged man behind him on the first floor of Yamauchi.

The other party was a middle-aged man, ****, and he looked quite gentle. Seeing Dongyesi curious, he immediately introduced himself with a smile: "Hello, Teacher Dongye, I am from the New Century Art Association in Tokyo, Japan. The vice president is named Bunta Kageyama."

While speaking, the other party reached out and shook hands with Higashinoji.

"Hello, President Kageyama." Higashino thought to himself that it is fortunate that Higashino Chihaya is playing games with Fujiwara Aoi and the others next door, or she might be scared to death by these two men who came to visit on their own initiative - she has always They are all very recognizable.

He doesn't care whether others are the vice president or not. Anyway, in this situation, it is absolutely impossible to go wrong by calling them the president.

After saying hello, Higashino also turned sideways, made a gesture of 'please come in', and welcomed the two of them into the house.

After they sat down, Higashino served tea, and on the first floor of Yamauchi they offered sake for their collection as souvenirs after the entire Japanese social process was over.

Only then did Kageyama Bunta explain the purpose of his visit: "Actually, we came this time mainly to invite Mr. Higashino to join the New Century Painting Association."

At this time, Dong Yesi understood.

It turned out that this Kageyama Bunta wanted to invite him to join the New Century Painting Association, so he made a special trip to find the first floor of Yamauchi to help make a connection.
This was something Dong Yesi didn't expect.

Join the association.
Higashinosi joined some messy associations in the Celestial Dynasty in his previous life, but there were few people in these associations who really discussed painting skills. You punch, and then someone asks you what school and style you are in, and you just say "the head of the Hunyuan Baji evil-dispelling boxing school". This sounds a lot more bluffing.

Higashinoji is also a well-known type of person outside of the country now, so it is naturally impossible to randomly join some informal art associations. Of course, Higashinoji still respects the teacher on the first floor of the mountain who once helped him, and The other party was Meisa Kuromiya's teacher who was in charge of the Tokyo Youth Painting Award and did not operate in a black box.

It seemed that he had sensed Higashinoji's thoughts.

Bunta Kageyama smiled, and at the same time stretched out his hand and said seriously: "The New Century Art Association has cooperation with more than [-]% of art museums in Japan. In Tokyo alone, there are more than [-] active members and potential members. formalities for registration."

"It's really unusual." Higashinoji has also been in this industry, knowing that it is quite unusual to have such a large-scale association in Japan. It seems that the vice president of Kageyama has something.

"Just like the concept of our association, we hope to absorb young painters like Mr. Higashino. That's why we have this visit."

Kageyama Bunta once again held Higashino Division's palm, earnestly begging: "Please join our New Century Art Association, Mr. Higashino."

Seeing his sincere attitude, Dongyesi looked a little strange. He didn't have any impression of this New Century Art Association, and he didn't understand why the other party wanted to recruit him to join them so much.

So Higashino didn't answer the question, but asked curiously: "What will I do if I join the New Century Art Association?"

His current job is already tiring, and if he joins an art association, if there are some messy association activities, he will not be able to spare that time.

"If Mr. Dongye is willing, it is also possible to just name an honorary member or honorary vice president in the association, and also enjoy some benefits of our association."

The benefits of the New Century Art Association are not bad in a certain sense. A certain amount of funding will be distributed every month. There is no need to pay for the admission fee to visit some art museums that cooperate with the Art Association. With the help of the connections of the Art Association, such as holding art exhibitions and some cooperation with art museums, these are resources that Higashino Division can borrow.

And from the very beginning, he was willing to give the title of honorary vice president, and the benefits were very heavy, and the weight was enough. Dong Yesi could see that the New Century Art Association still valued himself.

Higashino Si pondered for a while, thinking for a while.

On the other hand, Kageyama Bunta saw that Higashinoji seemed to be moved, and immediately added: "We originally wanted to visit the house before, but we have been suffering from no one to introduce us, so we delayed until now."

"President Yingshan, you don't have to be so polite." Higashino waved his hand with a smile: "Thank you very much for your invitation, but unfortunately, I am going to travel recently, and it is a bit troublesome to go through the membership procedures, please give me a little time Consider it?"

When talking about this, Higashinoji said jokingly: "I haven't decided on a place for my current trip. If Chairman Kageyama has a good place to recommend for me, then I can consider joining the club."

Tourist destination?

Kageyama Bunta attaches great importance to Higashinoji. Whether it is oil painting or manga, he can play well. The key is that he has a great influence on the young generation in Japan. Manga is known as the third largest industry in Japan. The current leader of the Japanese manga industry, he naturally has to think about it.

So he thought about it and said: "Since Mr. Dongye hasn't decided where to travel, what do you think of Aomori County? The scenery over there is very good, with mountains and seas, and there are many places of interest. There are also us there." Sub-Association, if Mr. Higashino thinks about it, he can also go through the formalities directly at the sub-association over there."

Aomori Prefecture?
Higashinoji was more or less interested: "Thank you, Chairman Kageyama, for your suggestion. If I make a decision, I will definitely go to the Aomori County Branch Association to go through the membership procedures."

"Then I'll just wait for the good news from Mr. Higashino." Bunta Kageyama also smiled.

Although he was a little regretful that he couldn't pull Higashinoji into the New Century Art Association, at least he had taken the first step, and Higashinoji didn't have a bad impression of them, and they still had a good chance in the future.

After the conversation, Kageyama Bunta said that he would write a letter of recommendation when he went back. When the time comes, Higashinoji will bring it to the Aomori County Branch Association together, and many procedures can be exempted.

To this, Higashino Division also agreed with a smile.

Several people drank tea and chatted for a while, and the topic also came from the New Century Art Association to the first floor of Yamauchi.

"In two days, Mr. Yamauchi will take Mingsha and the others to practice sketching outside the school?" Higashino asked curiously.

"Almost, Meisa is now a junior, and next year will be a senior. The only thing that gives me a headache is Chimi Nagawa in the class." The first floor of Yamauchi obviously knew that Higashinoji and Kuromiya Meisa had a deep relationship , so it is also called by name.

When Nagawa Chimi was mentioned, Yamauchi First Floor couldn't help rubbing his temples, feeling helpless.

If she hadn't met the number of days of attendance, the quality of the homework she usually handed in was not bad, and the first floor in the mountain would almost have made her repeat the grade.

Apparently Higashinoji also thought about Chimi Nagawa's saying that she would go home and inherit hundreds of millions of property if she couldn't study, so she just smiled. After all, this guy is rich, and it's normal to be free.

But it's no wonder that Kuromiya Meisa and Nagawa Chimi haven't visited much recently.

It turned out that I was going to go out for an internship to practice painting.

Several people chatted for a while, and Higashinoji sent Yamauchi Yirou and Kageyama Bunta away.

"Aomori County." Higashinosi thought for a while, and decided to search for this place on the Internet.

But before that, he searched about the New Century Art Association first.

There are many webpage entries about the New Century Art Association, Higashinoji is a little dazzled just by glancing at it.

The webpage is mainly about the works of members of the association and the exhibition of oil paintings and sculptures held by the association in conjunction with a certain art museum.

However, at the top of these miscellaneous news, there is an eye-catching headline-"Vice President Tashiro of New Century Art Association transferred to Uesugi Art Association, and Mr. Kageyama took over the position of vice president. According to insiders, Vice President Tashiro Long took away nearly half of the influential association members in the Japanese painting circle from the New Century Art Association. '

Ok?
This news attracted Higashino Tsukasa's attention. He clicked in and quickly browsed it. After reading it for about 2 minutes, Higashino Tsukasa probably understood why the vice president, Bunta Kageyama, was so thirsty for talents.

It turned out that the top core members, those painters and illustrators who were still well-known in Japan and had published a collection of paintings, were poached by the previous vice president Tashiro.

Bunta Kageyama was the one pushed out to take over the mess.
It was also for this reason that he took the initiative to come here to recruit Dong Yesi into the group this time.

No wonder he was directly given the title of honorary vice president.
But this is also normal. Joining the association is similar to a transaction for Higashinoji and Kageyama Bunta.

If you join, Higashino will be able to rely on the contacts of the New Century Art Association. If you don't join, Higashino will not lose anything.

Higashino Division crossed out the news. He hasn't considered whether to join or not, and it doesn't make sense to look at the stuff.

Next is the news from Aomori County that he is more concerned about.

He quickly found many entries about Aomori County on the Internet.

Look at it as a whole.
"It's not bad." Dong Yesi looked at the picture above and muttered to himself.

Not bad indeed.

There is a place in Aomori Prefecture called the Mutsu Shiokaze Trail. It can be said that there are mountains and seas along the way. The official boast is that it is more than 1000 kilometers long, but in fact the total distance of sightseeing spots is only about nine kilometers, which perfectly fits Takahashi. Yumi wants to see the sea, and there is also a famous historical city in the area called Hirosaki Castle, and there is also a large area of ​​ancient relics from the Jomon period, with profound historical and cultural heritage, which can also meet the needs of Aoi Fujiwara.

In addition, it is now at the end of summer and autumn, and the local area in Aomori Prefecture is neither hot nor cold, so it was indeed a good choice in the past.

"It does look like a nice place."

Higashino Division pondered, and decided to include Aomori County as a candidate.

Just as he was about to continue looking down, there was a loud noise outside. It turned out that Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara, who were playing games next door, had returned.

"Teacher Higashino, have you made a decision yet?" Takahashi Yumi rushed out of Higashinoji's room first as a gust of wind.

Behind her, Fujiwara Aoi couldn't help but speak directly when she saw this:
"Stupid pig! Wait a minute! Don't just enter Classmate Higashino's room."

If Konoe Lianghua goes in, it's almost the same. You are at most Lianghua's best friend, so it's a bit bad to just enter her boyfriend's room like this?

"I didn't go in all of them, stinky dwarf." Takahashi Yumi answered back confidently.

Although she has an out-of-the-ordinary personality, she also knows that boys' rooms cannot be entered randomly - if she sees something she shouldn't see, it will be bad.

So Takahashi Yumi left half of her body outside the door and half of her body in the room.

This made Dong Yesi a little speechless when he saw it. What is the difference between half of your body and your whole body?What about deception?

But forget it, I have to talk to them anyway.

Higashino Division simply called them all in, and then made a decision: "Let's go to Aomori County."

He didn't give Takahashi Yumi and the others a choice, so he made a decision directly.

After all, over the past few days, Higashinoji has figured out the routines of Takahashi Yumi and Fujiwara Aoi. If they are given a choice, or with a soliciting tone, they can chat excitedly about this topic for a whole day .

As the saying goes, there are three women in one play, but Dong Yesi thinks that the two of them can form a stage troupe.

So he directly chose to cut the mess with a sharp knife and finalized the matter directly.

But what Higashino did not expect was that when Takahashi Yumi and Fujiwara Aoi heard the place name of Aomori County, Qi Qi showed a look of astonishment.

Even Konoe Lianghua, who just came back with Higashino Chihaya behind the two of them, was also surprised.

They were too stiff to speak over there.

On the other side, Higashino Division also noticed something was wrong.

This kind of atmosphere is like poking a honeycomb at once.
Aomori Prefecture. Is there a problem?

　Thank you Dungeon Rat for your tip!Thank you so much!
