Tokyo Girlfriend Illustrated Book

I was really stupid, really! I only knew to ask the unit to purchase Hojo Kyosuke's novel to cheer up my daughter and make her less worried, but I didn't know that this move would put me in this situation.

——Miyazu Toshiki

As a powerful director who was only two steps away from climbing to the position of vice minister, it was effortless for him to ask the logistics department to purchase a novel as a welfare for the department, and this was the fact. In addition to their department, two other directors who were familiar with him also made the same instructions, which was considered to support him.

The bureaucrats of the Fire and Disaster Management Bureau are divided into chief, vice minister, section chief, and chief of the department from top to bottom... Among them, the chief is the Minister of State, who can be replaced every day like the Prime Minister, and cannot be promoted from within the Fire and Disaster Management Bureau, so the vice minister in charge of specific affairs is the highest position. Miyamizu Toshiki is now in a position where he can stand at the top of the country in two steps. Although there are more people standing on the same ladder as him, they are also in a high position.

At that time, no one cared about this matter at all. After all, compared with thinking about which equipment supplier's banquet to attend in the evening, buying a novel is really too insignificant. However, as "The Dream and Death of Writer K" became popular online, Hojo Kyosuke frequently appeared on TV, and the public discussion reached an unprecedented high, Miyamizu Toshiki's somewhat abrupt behavior was finally noticed.

First, the general staff discussed it, but because of Miyamizu Toshiki's hard-line style, no one dared to gossip with him. Then, the heads of the same level as him asked him during a dinner party, asking him if he knew this supernova in the literary world. Miyamizu Toshiki could only say that he had met him once or twice to fool around.

Later, even the boss of their prevention department came to ask, saying that if he really knew him, he should bring him to them next time. Who would not want to make friends with such a genius? Miyamizu Toshiki couldn't refuse, so he could only say that it was his daughter's friend and he was not familiar with him. What he didn't expect was that as soon as he said this, the smiles of his colleagues and superiors suddenly brightened.

One by one, holding a glass of wine, they asked Hojo Kyosuke if he was his son-in-law. The basic information of everyone in the Fire Department was transparent, not to mention that Miyamizu Toshiki was promoted by exception because of his special contribution. Everyone knew the situation of the two families behind him, the Miyamizu family and the Mizoguchi family. It can be said that both surnames pointed to the two young ladies of the Miyamizu family to inherit, so everyone assumed that the Miyamizu Toshiki family would recruit a son-in-law.

Recruiting a son-in-law in Japan is a normal thing, and no one would find it strange. Even compared to biological sons, big companies and big families may prefer to let sons-in-law inherit the family name and industry. After all, sons are born with rebellious attributes, and resistance to patriarchy can be said to be engraved in their bones. Such an heir is not a good heir. Moreover, the son's IQ and ability are completely uncontrollable, but sons-in-law are different!

Height, weight, school, and even hobbies can all be chosen according to their preferences. As a son-in-law, he respects his father-in-law and will definitely follow the arrangements of "father" honestly. Even after he becomes the head of the family, he will not change his face instantly like his son. It can be said that he is far more practical and cost-effective than his biological son.

Like Hojo Kyosuke, who became a well-known writer in high school, after graduating from college and taking the civil service exam, his fame will be added to his father-in-law's efforts. The speed of upgrading should not be too fast.

Therefore, even the boss and the boss's boss showed great interest in Miyamizu Toshiki and his "son-in-law suspect". After all, young people as outstanding as Hojo Kyosuke are really hard to find in today's era.

Faced with gossip from all sides, Miyamizu Toshiki's head was swollen. He wanted to catch Hojo Kyosuke and throw him to these gossipers, asking them to take this bastard home as a son-in-law if they were interested, but he didn't have the courage to do so. If he really did that, it would be the two daughters who would run away from home.

No, it is known that there are only three people in the Miyamizu family. If two daughters run away from home, then he is the only one left? This is not running away from home, but expelling him from the family!

Miyamizu Toshiki, who finally returned home after going through so much hardship and finally got off his seat, didn't want to be displaced again. He could only swallow the bitter water and force a smile to "make up some" nonsense about his daughter and Hojo Kyosuke's good relationship to perfunctorily deal with his colleagues and superiors. Even so, others were still not satisfied, and they all shouted that he should bring his son-in-law to meet everyone at the next Fire Department bidding banquet.

Although he was unwilling, for the sake of his daughter, Miyamizu Toshiki had to bite his teeth and agree, but he still said firmly that he was not a son-in-law, but just a good friend.

Colleagues all expressed their understanding of this, and they would not confirm such things unless they were engaged.

If Mitsuha knew, she would be very happy.

If the little bastard knew, he would be very proud.

Of course, although he agreed, Miyamizu Toshiki did not plan to tell his daughter about this. The boss was so busy with official duties that he would definitely forget it by then, and his colleagues would just perfunctorily deal with it.

When the old father thought about taking Mitsuha and Hojo to introduce their relationship to his colleagues, he felt his blood pressure rise in waves, never! At least I will never let this happen while my hands and feet can still move!

Recalling the torture he suffered at work, Miyamizu Toshiki closed his eyes painfully, sorted out his thoughts, and then looked at his two daughters.

Then the eyes of this man who was no longer young slowly narrowed slightly, and the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes curved into a happy arc.

The old father sat on the sofa, quietly listening to his two daughters bickering, listening to Mitsuha accusing Yotsuha of dropping her ranking in the last exam, listening to Yotsuha accusing Mitsuha of leaving her and secretly going shopping with Kyosuke, listening to Mitsuha angrily scolding Yotsuha for wanting to cheat and saw the table in half...

When he first reunited with his daughters, he had stopped their quarrel, feeling guilty that it was because of the lack of the role of a father that the daughters quarreled every day when they got home and lacked friendship. But his attempt to stop was stopped by his grandmother (who always called him from the perspective of the children, such as the child's father), who told him to shut up and observe quietly.

At first, he thought that his grandmother was angry that he had betrayed the family for so many years and wanted to act like a father as soon as he came back, but as he watched, he suddenly burst into tears.

The Miyamizu Shrine was too empty for the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren. When they didn't talk, it was so quiet that it was like entering another world. When they talked, they would feel the silence that was not like a human world more deeply, and those who made noises would be scared instead.

The quarrel between the two sisters was just like the round pebbles in the stream, making the gurgling stream play a beautiful movement, as if the Miyamizu Shrine, which was about to fall into the kingdom of God, was fixed in the world.

Miyamizu Toshiki watched and listened silently, and then he found out. In the chattering quarrel, Mitsuha told her grandmother and sister everything that happened throughout the day. When Yotsuha pushed her sister's face away in disgust, she had already vented all the troubles of being a child; Mitsuha laughed at Yotsuha and said something that sounded like an egomaniac, but in fact she had already given her own opinion from the perspective of her sister.

Yotsuha said that Xiaomei in the class bought a new hairband that was very beautiful. Mitsuha said that only people in small towns in the countryside would envy that kind of industrial product, and then took out the hairband she had woven and proudly said that if it was placed in a big city like Tokyo, it would definitely sell for more than 1,000 yen, so Yotsuha wore the new hairband half-believingly and half-doubtingly to find Xiaomei.

Siye said that the teacher asked her grandmother to help predict her future husband. Mitsuha said that if your teacher could know like me that happiness depends on one's own efforts, he would be able to find his ideal partner. Siye came to school half-believing and half-doubting. Just when she was about to speak, she thought of the fact that her sister had been single since birth, so she stopped at the brink and realized that she should never ask unreliable people for advice on love, such as teachers and sisters. They are all negative examples.

Siye said that Xiaoshuai and Xiaomei in the class asked her to play together on the weekend and she didn't know who to listen to. Mitsuha asked why they didn't play together. It's better to have many friends, just like her, Sayaka and the imperial envoy, and she said shamelessly that the number of friends can show a person's ability. Siye then thought of her best friend Sayaka and the ugly imperial envoy Kawahara Katsuhiko, so she was furious. Not only did she call Xiaoshuai and Xiaomei on the weekend, but she also asked Sayaka. Everyone took a bus to the next city to go shopping.

Siye drooled enviously at the chocolate cake on TV, and Mitsuha said I want to eat it too.

Siye opened the refrigerator and looked at the only jelly left. She squinted her eyes happily, ready to enjoy her sister's jealous eyes and slowly enjoy it. Mitsuha grabbed it and ate it in one bite, teaching her sister that she must grab the things she likes before everyone else, and never let go once she grabs them. She will not suffer retribution if she listens to the advice of those who have experienced it.

Siye finished her meal and urged her sister who didn't cook to wash the dishes. Mitsuha was kicked in the butt by her sister just as she was about to make up a story, so she had to walk to the kitchen in a huff.

Siye was so tired from practicing Kagura dance that her calves were swollen and painful. Mitsuha muttered that it was your turn to massage me next time while helping her sister relax her muscles and blood circulation.

Siye...

Miyamizu Toshiki watched all this silently, watching the unique way they got along when he was not with his daughters.

He knew very well how rebellious the little girl was, after all, Mitsuha was rebellious until junior high school. But in Siye, he could only see that she was well-behaved and sensible, but at the same time, she was not lacking in the healthy vitality of a little girl.

Siye...she didn't look like a girl who grew up in a family without parents at all.

He wanted to kill himself when he said this, but it was the truth.

He didn't know whether Mitsuha deliberately used this quarreling method to educate Yotsuha, or it was just an unintentional act, but in the quarrel between the two, Mitsuha quietly guided her sister and taught her the feelings of the world as an elder sister.

For her younger sister, Mitsuha Miyamizu did not play the role of both mother and father at the same time. She was just herself, Yotsuha's sister, a useless little witch of the Miyamizu family.

Although it looked very unbecoming, she became the best sister.

If the eldest sister was like a mother, Yotsuha would be sensible early and know what her sister was not suitable for. Mischief and joy would quietly slip away from her childhood. Miyamizu Toshiki would never see the scene of the younger daughter and the older daughter quarreling in his life, and would not have the opportunity to see this vitality and sisterhood.

If the eldest sister was like a father, Yotsuha would become another Miyamizu Mitsuha. Her world view, outlook on life and values ​​would not be as distinct and unique as they are now. Miyamizu Toshiki would never see such a unique little daughter in his life, and would not have the opportunity to see this wonderful and interesting scene.

Following his grandmother's instructions, he silently watched and listened to the quarrel between the two sisters. Miyamizu Toshiki was moved, but the guilt in his heart was about to drown him like a tsunami.

Although he had made up his mind to treasure his two daughters as the treasures left by Erye when he returned home, the moment he realized all this, Miyamizu Toshiki vowed to risk his life for the rest of his life to make up for his debt to his daughters, especially Mitsuye.

Of course, they really quarreled and fought many times, but they never needed grandma to be the referee. The two people who were evenly matched would separate quickly, agreeing to take revenge when they had the chance, and hurling harsh words at each other.

Since then, every time he went home, the quarrel between Sanye and Yotsuba was the part that the old father looked forward to the most. He would prepare snacks to replenish energy, drinks to moisten the throat, and record TV programs for his two daughters to prevent them from trucing because they wanted to watch programs. In short, he did all the logistics.

At the same time, he also slowly learned from Sanye and slowly put forward his opinions as a father. Not to mention, the effect was really good, and the distance between him and his daughters was shortened a lot. Every time Sanye and Yotsuba would roll their eyes and turn their heads and shout "Don't interrupt!"

But happiness is not without troubles. Since coming to Tokyo, the younger daughter who used to be able to suppress the older daughter has gradually fallen behind, and is often suppressed after saying a few words. If you want to ask the reason, it's all because of a name.

"…Apologize! Otherwise, I won't take you to the award ceremony next week!"

Miyazu Mitsuha put her hands on her hips, arrogant and high-spirited, looking at her stupid sister with contempt.

Miyazu Yotsuha's mouth pursed, looking at her stupid sister with disbelief and grievance.

Why would her sister want to threaten her with Kyosuke? Did she tell me the story of Itomori? Kyosuke made fruit smoothies for her, took her to Itomori Lake to catch fish and shrimp, took her to dig the land and plant crops, and helped her make a bicycle...

Why did a stupid girl who snatched popsicles from her think that Kyosuke would abandon her because of her? !

Yotsuha became angrier and angrier the more she thought about it, and her fists clenched tightly.

Miyazu Toshiki was so excited that he thought, that's it, Daddy will take you to an award ceremony!

Yotsuba raised her head, looked at her sister angrily, and said proudly:

"I'm sorry!"

"Yoshiyoshi, be good, I'll take you there when the time comes."

Miyazu Toshiki bowed his head dejectedly.
