Teacher, I hate it

Chapter 132 A day on campus

"Kayo-chan, what are you doing?" During the break that day, Hoshizora Rin suddenly jumped to Koizumi Kayo's desk like a lively little rabbit, with his hands behind his back and his upper body leaning forward. He lowered his head and looked at the things on Koizumi Kayo's desk.

"This is a picture book?"

The so-called picture books are actually something similar to children's books, but the content is not mainly text, but is composed entirely of wonderful paintings. The text exists only to explain the meaning of the pictures and facilitate people's reading and understanding. .

Therefore, the main target audience of picture books are those young children who are still in kindergarten and the first, second and third grades of elementary school, as well as adult women who have children at home.

Although the audience is not very wide, it still has a good status in the circle of Japanese writers.

At least not the lowest level existence.

"Yes." Koizumi Kayo responded with a slight nod.

"What are you drawing?" Xingkong Lin asked more and more curiously.

"Didn't the school issue a notice some time ago that it was soliciting manuscripts to promote Bishamonten, and there were no restrictions on subject matter. I was wondering if picture books could also be used to submit manuscripts." After a pause, Koizumi Kayo continued: "After all, Compared to light novels or folk tales that require readers to imagine, the content of picture books makes it easier for readers to recognize the image of Bishamonten that the school wants to promote, so I drew this."

"Hanayang is so awesome!" Xingzong Rin praised directly, regardless of whether he understood it or not.

"No way." Koizumi Hanayang became a little embarrassed and shy.

It can be said that except for idol matters, Koizumi Hanayo is a standard introverted and shy girl in other aspects.

"I'm not lying. Hua Yang is really amazing. At least if it were me, I wouldn't have the energy to think about picture books besides Muse's daily training. Therefore, Hua Yang is the most powerful. ." Xingkong Rin complimented with admiration.

"I still don't know if I can pass the trial." Koizumi Kayo said in a low voice.

"I believe Hanayo, it can definitely be done!" Xingzong Rin used both hands to show two thumbs up to Koizumi Hanayo and said encouragingly.

……

"Let's see if this style is possible." While Kayo Koizumi was trying to find free time to draw picture book stories, Eiri took the rare initiative to find Kasumigaoka Shiu who always made her feel uncomfortable every time they met. He handed several drawings to her.

"You finished the painting so quickly?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu was surprised when he finished the drawing.

It has only been a few days and I have already finished the illustration. Could it be that Yinglili is fooling herself?

"Not yet. These are just simple sketches of the characters mentioned in it that I made after reading your manuscript. I only show them to you this time to determine what style to use, and then I will officially Let's start drawing illustrations." Eirili explained to Kasumigaoka Shiu with an air of saying that I am the professional in this aspect.

"That's it." Kasumigaoka Shiyu suddenly said.

"Why do these characters look familiar to me?" After a while, Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who had seen Eiri's drawings, asked in confusion.

"Because when I designed them, I referenced real people." Yinglili replied.

"Referring to real people? You don't know that it is illegal to use other people's portraits for creation without the permission of the person concerned?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu looked at Eiri in front of her in astonishment, as if she was I can't believe she could be so ignorant.

"First of all, these drawings are my original works. Although I drew on the characteristics of some real people, they did not completely follow the two-dimensional design of real people. Secondly, the ones I used are not celebrities. You see..." Saying that, Eiri walked over, took the drawings back from Kasumigaoka Shiyu's hands, and picked out a few of them and handed them back again: "These are all designed by me with reference to the characteristics of the muses. Look at the characters, how are they the same as the characters in my drawings?"

"It's indeed different." Kasumigaoka Shiyu examined it carefully for a moment and found that it was indeed different.It just feels very strange——

They are all obviously different characters, so why does Ying Lili's character design remind me of the members of Muse?
Even if this kind of thing is put in the hands of a famous contemporary painter, it seems impossible, right?
Involuntarily, Kasumigaoka Shiyu looked up and down at Eiri in front of her with surprised eyes.

Could it be that I have discovered a diluted treasure, a future great painter?

"Why are you looking at me with such strange eyes?" Ying Lili was very uncomfortable and could not help but frown and asked.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu expressed her doubts without hesitation.

"This is just a simple psychological suggestion." After hearing Kasumigaoka Shiyu's doubts, Eirili slightly lowered the corner of her mouth and said softly.Then he picked up the few character drawings that surprised Kasumigaoka Shiyu again, and pointed at some of the decorations on the characters - such as the details of clothing, jewelry, and the color of clothing. These may seem insignificant, but when combined, they can make people feel The strongly suggestive fragment of information said: "Look at these places, and then think back to whether the costumes and movement details worn by Muse during her stage performances are exactly the same."

"I see. I didn't expect that you could add psychological hints to small illustrations. It seems that I have indeed underestimated you." Kasumigaoka Shiyu exclaimed after understanding.

"This can only be useful to people like you who have watched Muse's stage performances and browsed the performance videos they uploaded. For strangers who have never seen these, it is just a simple character sketch. Okay. Okay, now tell me if this style is okay." Ying Lili's expression was calm, but she said proudly with some pride in her heart.

"This style is quite good, just use this style." Kasumigaoka Shiyu carefully looked at the character sketch in his hand again and handed it back to Eirili.

"Then I will draw it in this style." Yinglili finally confirmed.

"Ah."

……

"Have you heard? The principal is going to hold a summer festival at the school during the summer vacation." After school in the afternoon, in the gymnasium used by the basketball club, several members of the basketball club were doing basic dribbling exercises with great interest. discussed.

"Of course I have heard of it, but the prerequisite for holding the summer festival is that there is a club in the school that can enter the national competition. I don't know what the results of other clubs are." Another student took over the topic and stated.

"It's definitely not bad."

"Are you so sure?"

"Don't forget the composition of various clubs in the school this year."

"Hey, I forgot about those special admissions."

"Although the teams and strength formed by those specially recruited students may not be comparable to the strength of the teams and star players from traditional strong schools in the Tokyo area, they are second to none in the entire Tokyo area. Just like our basketball team, as long as there are no accidents, , even if we can’t win the regional championship, there shouldn’t be much problem squeezing into the national competition as the top three.”

"Doesn't that mean that in addition to the fireworks display this summer, we can also experience a unique summer celebration here at school?"

"You heard it, the students are very excited." Ashikaga Chie, the director of the Sakura High School Basketball Club at this time, said to his companion and friend Ishibashi Ion.

"I can see it." Ishibashi Iwen, who has dark skin and looks like he was born in Okinawa, said quietly: "It's just that the pressure will be on us main players. If we don't perform well then, we can It’s not just as simple as losing all the players.”

"Oh, who would have thought that this Principal Aragaki would have so many small thoughts." Ashikaga Chie, who raised his hand to shoot, threw the basketball in his hand toward the basket and sighed helplessly.
