Tokyo girls have a big problem

Chapter 318 For men, secret stash of money is very important
Repeatedly.

Things are perfected through repetition.

Let alone the final version, the footage that has been filmed so far is already different from, and much better than, the script written by Aoyama Osamu.

Aoyama Osamu's script may not be good, but does that mean it's meaningless?
No.

He was the first step, which is more important than anything else.

Mikami used these words to fool Aoyama Osamu, Ono Mizuki, and Miyako Yaeko, and kept filming according to her wishes.

Aoyama felt that she was becoming less and less human.

Like a life guidance system.

Give the system an instruction, and it will directly take over the body, allowing it to study or exercise as instructed.
When she was chosen as director, she used a combination of coaxing, deception, threats, and extortion to ensure the smooth progress of filming.

She is also very strict with herself.

On Sunday, after the training camp ended, she visited Aunt Kiyono's house to thank the couple for their birthday wishes.

While waiting in the living room, she drew storyboards on her phone.

Long shot, full shot, medium shot, close-up, extreme close-up;
Looking straight ahead, looking down, looking up;
Fixed camera, push-pull, panning, tracking shot;
What is the stick figure Aoyama Risa doing in the picture?
The visuals should match the rhythm, mood, and climax of the song as closely as possible;

and many more.

She needs to think about every single detail.

It's actually very difficult. It's like writing a novel. You have countless ideas, grand visions, and exciting moments in your mind, but when you actually start, you don't even know how to write the first sentence.

Not to mention the transitions, foreshadowing, details, and so on.

"Drawing comics?" A soft, gentle voice sounded from behind.

Seeing that Shang Ai had come to her senses and was about to get up, the other person reached out and gently pressed her shoulder, making her sit down.

“No, Aunt Rin, the school's cultural festival is coming up soon, and I'm planning to shoot a music video. This is the storyboard for the music video,” she explained.

The other person's eyes were clear and transparent, as if they could see through a person's soul, carrying a sense of detachment that kept them at a distance.

Seeing that Ai's mother was young enough, Miyako even described her as a 'beautiful girl', but compared to the aunt in front of her, she was still far inferior.

Seeing Shang Ai's mother, although she is young, anyone can see that it is thanks to her genes and good maintenance.

The aunt in front of me looks like she hasn't changed at all since she was eighteen; only her demeanor and style have matured.

Time has left no trace; instead, it has become an adornment, adding to her ethereal and otherworldly charm.

"Is that your boyfriend in the picture?" The aunt's husband came downstairs. Even though they were so far apart, he knew what she was drawing.

"No." Jian Shangai didn't have a good impression of men who had many wives.

"Oh~~" the other person said with a sudden realization, their tone either nonchalant or nonchalant. "So, you just like it now?"

"No."

The aunt next to me smiled, a smile so beautiful it made me feel melancholy, and I felt sad thinking, 'What if I can't see her again next time?'

The aunt said to her husband, "Shall we go to the cultural festival together?"

"What number?" Aunt Lin's husband asked.

"It will start on October 12th and last for four days." See the answer above.

“No, we need to go back to Iwate Prefecture for those few days,” the aunt’s husband flatly refused.

The aunt's husband is a filial son. He is not only good to his own parents, but also respects his wives' parents in the same way.

There are some things that even Aunt Lin can't control, but if Aunt Lin's mother says a few words, Aunt Lin's husband can only agree with a wry smile.

However, regarding this matter, the mother said that Aunt Lin did it on purpose, because there was no way that Aunt Lin's husband would disobey her.

After finishing her meal, she left as soon as she saw Shang Ai, as she had other things to do.

In her 62S, she sent the storyboard she had drawn to Aoyama Osamu, asking him for suggestions on revisions, since he was not only an actor but also a screenwriter.

After delivering the storyboard, she immediately began drawing effect renderings: the changes in light and shadow on Mizuki's face, and so on.

At this time, Aoyama Ryo had not yet returned home.

He was in the kendo club, rehearsing with the club members—the kendo club readily agreed to participate in the performance, after all, Aoyama Osamu's Fighting Award was still held in the kendo club.

He will only bring it home after graduation.

They rehearsed until 8 p.m. before it finally looked somewhat decent.

"Aren't you tired?" Jun Aizawa asked Osamu Aoyama while wiping his sweat.

He felt that the training in the kendo club was not as hard as being an actor in the hands of Aoi Mikami.

“I learned the skill of ‘finding joy in hardship’ when I was eight years old, and I honed it to the highest level when I was fifteen,” Aoyama Osamu replied.

On Monday, the first day of school, when the topic came up in casual conversation, Kobayashi Shiki said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. He just took a fancy to Ai Mikami and was bewitched by her beauty!"

This is pure slander.

Another weekend has passed, and the atmosphere of the school's cultural festival is getting stronger and stronger. An exciting feeling of a grand festival approaching is brewing in everyone's heart.

From Monday to Friday, Aoyama Risa's mind wasn't on the cultural festival, but on the midterm exams.

His goal is 17, 20 would be considered acceptable, and 25 is the bottom line.

This way, we can guarantee a place in the top 25.

He didn't need to worry about class activities. It wasn't until the cultural festival started and voting began that it was his and Amakusa Sawa's turn to appear and take photos.

However, he had to use his after-school club activities time to prepare for the cultural festival.

Department of Philosophical Studies in Athens.

“The track and field department should be added; ‘running’ is very symbolic,” said Ai Kan.

"Speaking of which, I was also a member of the track and field team," Aoyama recalled.

“I remember when I went to audition for the track and field club, you and Ono Mika-senpai happened to be looking for clubs together.”

At that time, there seemed to be some conflict between the two.

I can't remember the specific reason anymore.

“Oh, right,” Aoyama thought of something else, “Mika-nee is just as cute as Mizuki, but you don’t seem to get along with Mika-nee?”

"Who do I get along with?" Jian Shang asked rhetorically.

Also.

At least Aoyama Ryo and she don't get along.

"Let's go." Jian Shangai stood up.

The two took action.

First, find the cheerleaders.

"To cooperate with the performance?" The cheerleading captain was dressed in a cool outfit, revealing her slender waist and healthy long legs.

"Is that okay?" See iAsk above.

"Hmm—" the captain said with some difficulty.

She saw Ai give Aoyama a look.

—Okay, okay.

Aoyama Rika: "Please."

"this."

"Please~"

"Aoyama-kun, this."

"Please~"

"Okay, okay."

They exchanged contact information with the cheerleading captain, agreed on a shooting date, and then left.

“I feel dirty.” Aoyama Rin’s voice was hollow, like a fish that was killed too cleanly and had its internal organs ripped out but was still alive.

"It's okay, at least I won't look down on you." Ai looked at the schedule in her hand.

What's the use of whether you dislike me or not?

"Have you forgotten our promise to get married when we're twenty-nine?"

"hehe."

"Considering how hard you've worked, you're twenty-eight years old," said Ai.

—Are you sure this is a reward for me?

Aoyama Risa didn't say it aloud; some topics should be handled with a cool head. He didn't think he couldn't get married at twenty-eight.

The only question is whether to marry Sister Meihua or Sister Meiyue.

After visiting the cheerleading squad, I went to the baseball club.

Aoyama Riya is a member of the baseball team.

"Really? You think too highly of us! No problem!" The female manager of the baseball team readily agreed.

"Teams that don't have matches are always so generous in agreeing," said Ai Kanami, nodding.

"I'm sorry, but after thinking about it carefully, we still need to prepare for next year's spring tournament." The female manager of the baseball team bowed, even more politely than before.

Seeing this, Ai gave Aoyama a look—"You go."
Aoyama Riya was looking at her—Can you talk?

“Um, I’m sorry, please.” Aoyama said. “Okay, alright,” the baseball team manager replied.

He left the baseball team.

Before Aoyama could say anything, he saw that Ue took the initiative to say, "I was wrong, I'm twenty-seven."

"No, it was my fault!" Aoyama Risa quickly said, "Let me do everything from now on!"

—That was close!
My life almost ended.

It's like a 1000-chapter romance novel where the male protagonist almost got married in chapter 313!

How could the male lead get married twice?

The male and female leads must be each other's first time!
In subsequent clubs such as the track and field club and the swimming club, Aoyama Risa took the initiative to step forward.

The track and field club's condition was that they had to compete against Aoyama Risa on the day the music video was filmed, and if they won, they could film it. Aoyama Risa agreed.
The swimming club not only agreed immediately, but also gave Aoyama Risa four complimentary tickets to watch the club's synchronized swimming performance for free.

With the other party being so cooperative, Aoyama Ryo vowed that he would definitely go and see it!

Next up is meeting my love.

These cooperative groups are also under a lot of pressure. In order not to delay things, they must think everything through before filming begins.

Storyboards, concept art, scene drawings, props, and character designs all need to be approved on the first try.

This is no small project.

It's fine to be casual, but I can't be casual about Aoi. She's not a casual person to begin with, especially since she received investment from Aoyama Osamu and made a bet with Miyako Yaeko.

Qingshan didn't care; he took advantage of her busy schedule to study hard.

Of course, there was one more thing he needed to do—buy black stockings.

As a gentleman, he couldn't possibly buy black stockings, so he went to buy them in the middle of the night when everyone was asleep.

At midnight, Aoyama Risa sneaked out of her room, walking cautiously, afraid [Talent: An Accidental Activation in the Second Dimension].

He finally breathed a sigh of relief after struggling to push his motorcycle out of his house.

The Ono sisters are both good kids. They've been busy preparing for the cultural festival and midterms lately, so they're probably too tired to get up in the middle of the night.

Aoyama Ryo put down his motorcycle and went home.

You can't do this.

You shouldn't do things that you're afraid the Ono sisters will find out about.

If you don't even have this much awareness, what right do you have to associate with them?

The question now is, who should we invite to go together?

Mizuki is too young. For her, whether it's riding a motorcycle or buying black stockings, she should just go to sleep.

Aoyama Riki knocked on Ono Mika's door.

After a long while, Mika Ono finally opened the door.

"What's wrong?" she asked, glancing at Aoyama Ryo, who was still wearing his tracksuit.

"Come out with me?" Aoyama Risa said.

"Go out? Now?"

"Let's go." Aoyama Risa took her hand and led her outside.

"Wait a minute!" Ono Mika refused.

She said, "I'll change my clothes!"

I didn't ask why; I just wanted to change my clothes.

She was also wearing her school's sports uniform.

The two went outside, and Aoyama Ritsu explained the reason to her, saying that Ai was too busy and asked him to buy black stockings, which were due the next day, but he forgot when he got out of school.

"Can't we just buy it tomorrow morning?" Mika Ono asked, puzzled.

"Let's take a drive," Aoyama Risa said with a smile.

The two rode their motorcycle. The house was well soundproofed, so they weren't worried about disturbing Ono Mizuki.

"Are you sure you can ride?" Mika Ono asked.

"If you're scared, hold me tight."

Ono Mika put her arm around Aoyama Osamu's waist.

Aoyama Ryo discovered that hugging Ono Mika was comfortable, and being hugged by Ono Mika was also comfortable.

—Transformation, Kamen Rider Gentleman!

Full of high spirits, he mentally gave himself a voiceover while twisting the accelerator.

The motorcycle wasn't going fast, but it glided away with remarkable agility.

In the darkness, Aoyama Riki searched for the black silk like Ultraman Ace searched for the Super Beast.

First of all, they are still open for business at this time;
Secondly, there must be black stockings that sell for 1,000 yen.

It was a bit difficult, but Rira Aoyama was really into it, and going for a drive was really fun.

The strong wind blowing on my body seems to really blow away the pressure and worries that are trapped inside, and it can also broaden my mind.

My spirit felt refreshed, as if I had just been washed, and a powerful urge to strive for progress surged from deep within my body.

Besides, Ono Mika was sitting behind him.

Mika Ono also felt the cool summer breeze and pressed her face against Osamu Aoyama's back.

On the streets of Tokyo late at night, there are many people speeding, and many of them extend invitations—in various ways, such as honking, revving the engine, or giving the middle finger.

"Don't be impulsive!" Ono Mika quickly advised.

“The most important person in the world is sitting behind me, how could I be impulsive?” Aoyama Risa laughed.

He had no time to waste with them; he continued his search for Black Silk, just as General Duanmu had searched for Oxher.

Ono Mika hugged a little harder.

The two rode from Jingumae to Shinbashi, then from Shinbashi to Zojoji, then to Nishi-Azabu, and finally through Omotesando back to Jingumae, completing a loop around the Minato Ward.

Only after I was completely satisfied did I find a shopping mall that was still open and selling stockings.

"Which one should we buy in the summer?" asked Aoyama Riki.

"This kind?" Ono Mika didn't know much about black stockings either.

Aoyama looked around. The mall was so quiet you could hear the static, like it was the end of the world. The two of them were shopping freely in the mall.

There was no one around.

"Sis," he whispered, "you should buy a pair too."

"Huh?" Ono Mika asked, puzzled.

Aoyama gave her an ambiguous smile, and Ono Mika hit him with the plastic bag containing the stockings in her hand.

She still chose it.

When it was time to pay the bill, she stood far away.

"Sixteen hundred yen," the clerk said.

Aoyama Ryo was in despair.

He only had enough money to buy the black stockings he loved!

He looked at Mika Ono, who pretended not to recognize him, as if they were buying family planning products instead of stockings.

Mika Ono was hastily taken out of the house by him, and she probably didn't have any money.

Aoyama Risa felt heartbroken, like a monkey had stolen her newly bought phone; that monkey was Aoi Mikami.

"I don't need this, thank you," he said.

"Okay. One thousand yen." The clerk replied crisply.

If he could enter a dream, Aoyama Rika would enter Ai's dream tonight and make her wear ten thousand pairs of stockings!

The two left the mall one after the other.

"Didn't you buy anything?" Mika Ono asked.

"Thinking about it carefully, it's too vulgar." Aoyama Risa didn't mention that all his money had been taken by Mikami Ai.

It wouldn't matter if the Ono sisters found out, but he wanted to give Ono Mizuki a surprise.

"It's fine if you don't buy it. Even if you did, I wouldn't wear it for you anyway," Mika Ono said with a smile.

"Then why should I buy it?"

"You've learned your lesson the hard way."

A blessing in disguise.

—No, after buying them, all I have to do is say 'it would be a waste not to wear them,' and Ono Mika will probably wear the black stockings out of reluctance.

Having secret stashes of money is a big problem.

Fortunately, he will receive 500,000 NTD after the cultural festival, and he can keep 300,000 NTD.

By the time.
We can't just buy it for Meihua; we have to treat everyone equally. Meiyue should have some too—she's more suited to white stockings.
