Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 88 New Monthly Magazine - "Green Leaf"

After the press conference, Higashino took the special car prepared by the school to go home.

The bonus of the double gold reward will be collected later, today is just a double gold reward certificate.

Okano Ryoko was obviously moved by Higashino Division's mention of herself on the stage of the Golden Awards, her eyes were red.

Higashino asked the reason cheerfully, but the other party was too embarrassed to answer, so he could only shake his head, and said 'no' falteringly.

She looked like a teenage girl.

But since Yoshiko Okano didn't want to talk, then Higashino wouldn't ask further, he and Yoshiko Okano talked without saying a word.

It wasn't until he was about to reach the downstairs of the apartment where Higashino lived that Yoshiko Okano took out a document from the side pocket and handed it to Higashino: "Higashi, this is what Principal Yoshimine asked me to give you. "

"Huh?" Higashino raised his eyebrows, and took the document from Okano Ryoko.

This is Higashino Chihaya's return to school document?

Higashino Division looked down quickly, and saw the seal of the principal of Beiyi School all at once.

"Then I've brought the things I want to hand over to you, so I'll take a step ahead, Higashino-san."

Okano Ryoko smiled and waved to Higashino who had already got out of the car, and then let the driver drive away.

"That's really true." Higashinosi looked at the school resumption document in his hand, then shook his head.

One or two of these principals are good people, and there is no need for Higashino to bring it up, because Higashino Chihaya's resumption documents have already been prepared over there.

but

"This is temporarily unavailable."

Dong Yesi held the documents for resuming school firmly, and then went upstairs.

Back home, Higashino Chihaya ran over as soon as he saw Dongye Si: "Asi! You are back! I saw you on TV just now, and suddenly you disappeared on TV. I am so worried. .”

"Really?" Higashino Si smiled and touched Higashino Chihaya's head: "Why are you worried about me?"

"I'm afraid that Ah Si will be tricked away by bad guys." Higashino Chihaya pouted, "Ah Si is very stupid and not as smart as me. Maybe he will be cheated away. My sister wants to protect Ah Si."

As she spoke, she waved her small fist with a very serious expression on her small face.

Seeing this cute and naive look, Higashino laughed cheerfully: "I'm back, right? Miss Chihaya, have you eaten yet?"

"Eat." Higashino Chihaya nodded.

"Then Miss Qianzao must not be hungry, right?" Higashino Si asked thoughtfully.

"Well, I'm not hungry, and I have to control my appetite at night, otherwise it's very unhealthy." Chihaya Higashino rambled.

She wasn't hungry. Dong Yesi ordered a bowl of pork rice bowl, and she was a bit full.

"Then I'll eat oden alone, anyway Chihaya-san is not hungry." Higashinosi took a box of oden from behind.

"Huh?" Higashino Chihaya was stunned, she could only put her index finger next to her mouth, and watched as Higashino took off the plastic cover that sealed the oden.

Light yellow grease, white air drifting away, and the fragrance rose all of a sudden.

"A Si" Higashino Chihaya swallowed, and called out Higashino Si who had already filled a bowl of oden.

"What's wrong? Miss Chihaya?" Higashino Division gave Chihaya Higashino a strange look.

"No, nothing."

Chihaya Tono shook her head.

Dong Yesi wanted to move his chopsticks again.

Then--

"Asi, Asi, Asi" Higashino Chihaya called again eagerly.

"what happened?"

"nothing"

Higashino Chihaya swallowed her saliva, but when she thought about it, she said in front of her younger brother that she should control her appetite.

She could only lower her head sadly with aggrievedness, turned her face to the side, stopped yelling 'Asi Asi', and stopped looking at Higashinosi's oden in a bowl.

then

"Eat, Miss Chihaya."

Higashino Si put the bowls and chopsticks in front of Higashino Chihaya with a smile, and added: "I can't finish it all by myself, and I have to rely on Chihaya sister, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of food?"

Looking at the hot oden in front of him, and then at Higashino, Chihaya Higashino nodded cheerfully: "Yeah!"

There wasn't much oden in one serving, so Higashinoji ate a little and gave it all up to Higashino Chihaya.

Seeing Chihaya Higashino's cute appearance biting dried tofu, Tsukasa Higashino laughed twice, and suddenly felt that this simple and happy life is actually quite good.

During these days, he kept visiting some small street shops alone. On the one hand, he wanted to expand his knowledge of Japanese food, and on the other hand, he also wanted to experience the mood of Inokashira Goro in "The Lonely Gourmet".

One person, eating alone.

This is undoubtedly a very lonely thing, but there is a special charm in this loneliness.

Don't care about other people's eyes, you can eat whatever you want, and order whatever you want.

You can overeat or drink too much, and no one will judge your behavior.

It's a simple joy.

Higashinoji already fully understood Inokashira Goro's mood.

He also believes that empathy and pictorial awareness are the most perfect to be used in this state.

"It's almost time to start drawing the original version of The Lonely Gourmet."

Tonoji whispered to himself.

There are only more than 20 days until mid-September, and the original manuscript of "The Lonely Gourmet" needs at least forty to fifty pages.

According to the plan of three pages of "Midnight Bell" manuscripts and one page of "The Lonely Gourmet" manuscript a day, it is almost time to start writing now.

Some people may say that it is a bit late.

But in fact, it was not too late for Higashino Division.

He can now draw a page of manuscript in an hour and a half.

And three pages of "Midnight Ring" and one page of "The Lonely Gourmet" are the usual number of pages a day.

But don't forget, Higashino still has holidays, and Higashino can also use it to draw manga during the Beiyiju Art Festival.

The blank period in between is enough for him to complete the first chapter of "The Lonely Gourmet".

In addition, the blue bird is almost finished, it is only a matter of sanding and polishing the rough parts with sandpaper and polishing wax

"There's plenty of time."

Higashino nodded contentedly.

And just as he was about to refine his plan, his cell phone rang suddenly.

Who is calling at this late hour?

Higashino took out his phone suspiciously, and glanced at the names on it.

"Editor Hosokawa?"

What's the matter with her calling so late?

Higashino connected the phone: "Hello? Editor Hosokawa?"

"Ah, it's Higashino-sensei, right? I saw you on TV Asahi just now. Congratulations on winning the double gold awards in both the adult group and the student group."

As Hosokawa Koharu said, he also glanced at the announcement at the bottom of the TV screen that Higashino Division won the double gold award.

The news has not gone away until now, so one can imagine how hot it is.

Hosokawa Koharu was also surprised, even dumbfounded.

This author of my own can not only do comics, but also oil paintings?

And it's double gold reward?

Simply too versatile, right? !

but--

"There is one more thing I want to tell you. I can't get through to you all day today, so I can only bother you late at night."

It's no wonder that Dong Yesi was busy with the awards ceremony all day today, and the phone was completely muted, even the vibration was turned off, so naturally he couldn't get through.

"Excuse me, what's the matter?" Dongyesi asked her.

"It's about "The Lonely Gourmet" that you're going to publish in the monthly magazine "Aoba"."
