Tokyo Love Story

At least no one disturbed her peaceful daily life.

——Even if it’s only temporary.

But just like the saying goes, some are happy while others are sad.

Kashiwagen Shiori was happy, but those boys who liked to watch the fun were disappointed.

For this reason, they often encouraged each other in their respective small groups, wondering whether they should send a love letter to break the peace.

But instigation is just instigation, and no one seriously takes action.

It's not something that everyone can muster up the courage to send a love letter to a brilliant classmate of the opposite sex.

After all, no one wants to be the one who is rejected.

Even if there is little hope, as long as you don't confess, it means you won't be rejected. In other words, there will always be a chance.

While Kashiwamoto Shiori's side was quiet, Kitagawa Che's side became inexplicably lively.

During a physical education class, he was confessed to in public by a junior girl from the first year of high school.

The girl originally wanted to hand over a love letter, but after hesitating for a moment, she changed her mind and decided to confess her love to him.

As a result, the news spread throughout the school in a very short time.

Although in the end Kitagawa Che politely refused, he was often teased by people who had a good relationship with him because of this incident.

"I just can't understand why Che is so attractive?"

On the way back to the classroom, Taku Kiriyama muttered to himself, holding a blade of grass he got from somewhere in his mouth.

"Because he's serious? Or, reliable?"

Kiyono Akino, who was walking side by side with him, slowed down her pace, with a hint of mockery on her face.

Although her boyfriend is also very reliable, it still depends on who she is compared with and her reputation among her classmates.

Tuo's reputation in the grade is definitely not as good as Beichuan's.

Or let’s put it this way, the reputations of the two people are very different.

"If you put it that way, it's true."

Kiriyama Taku didn't feel jealous, but nodded thoughtfully.

In fact, as a good friend of Beichuan Che, he knows very well why Che is popular with girls. However, it’s the same old saying, knowing it is one thing, but whether they can accept it is another.

This is the damn desire to win between men.

"Besides, Kitagawa is really handsome, so isn't this a normal thing?"

Kiyono Akino put her hands behind her back, the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, and there was a little more anticipation in her eyes.

In fact, she is not like this.

But ever since she started dating, she likes to do little naughty things like this to make her boyfriend jealous.

"The face is only one aspect."

Kiriyama Taku shook his head and analyzed the situation seriously.

Three or two girls may be crazy about it, but if all the girls are crazy about it, it would be too fake.

Let's not talk about other classes, just take their recent Class A as an example. Whether it's Ejima Tadashi and Kitazono Rinone who are particularly popular among girls, or Morishima Yukisa, the "little pianist" admired by both boys and girls, none of them are the kind of fans who only look at faces.

"What else?"

Seeing that her boyfriend was not fooled, Kiyono Akino did not get angry. She gently held her right wrist with her left hand and walked briskly.

"How he behaves and the feeling he gives people." Kiriyama Taku paused and spoke his true thoughts, "It's no exaggeration to say that when I get along with Che and don't know him well, I feel that he is a bit aloof and gives people a strong sense of distance.

“But as long as you go up to him and talk to him, even if it’s just a simple greeting, you’ll feel like you’re in the spring breeze.

"Add to that his gentle and refined manner of speaking and his handsome face that is suitable for youth-themed movies. Seriously, if I were a girl, I would also like him."

Ah.

Hearing this, Kiyono Akino couldn't help but burst out laughing.

What does it mean to say one thing and mean another?

"If I remember correctly." Kiyono Akino coughed lightly and stretched out her tone, "What someone said a minute ago seems to be the exact opposite of what he said now?" After that, she blinked mischievously, imitating the tone of Kiriyama Taku just now, and repeated what the latter had said before, "I just can't figure it out, why is Che so attractive~"

"Hmph." Kiriyama Taku snorted unhappily, held his girlfriend's hand, and explained stubbornly, "This is called playing hard to get!"

"If I remember correctly, the phrase 'playing hard to get' doesn't seem to be used in this way, right? I think 'two-faced' might be a more appropriate description."

Kiyono Akino gave a wicked smile and whispered to expose her boyfriend's stubbornness.

"Don't worry about it. Anyway, this is how relationships between boys work." Kiriyama Taku paused. "Besides, can it be called double-faced when it comes to things between good friends?"

"I'll take it seriously~"

Kiyono Akino raised her eyebrows, her soft tone full of disbelief.

"You'd better listen carefully." Kiriyama Taku paused, then loosened his grip on Kiyono Akino's hand, "We're here."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of Class A of Grade 12.

If it was last semester, they could have walked in hand in hand without caring about everyone's eyes, but for this semester, let's just let him go.

The big guy's eyes were so hot that they seemed to burn people, and he was really a little amused.

At that moment, he really began to understand how Ache usually felt.

It’s better to pay less attention to this kind of thing.

"Actually, it's okay to go in holding hands."

Kiyono Akino muttered quietly in a voice that only she could hear.

But obviously, Kiriyama Taku didn't hear this, and walked straight into the classroom.

The next class and the one after that will be Rina-san’s modern literature class.

According to Sister Rina in the morning assembly class, she will announce something about the school concert this semester in this class.

Thanks to Remlia Carret, The Sleepless Cat 590, and Shangxie Shui Weijin for their monthly tickets. Your support is my motivation for writing.

Chapter 363: Open Concert? No, it’s a disguised concert.

Music Festival!

Jingle Bell.

As the bell rang, Tsugumi Seina, holding the textbook, walked into the classroom on time with her long legs.

After the customary standing up and greeting, Tsugumi Seina walked to the podium and spread out the textbook. She did not choose to ask the students to turn to the pages of the book and start the class directly as she did in the past. Instead, she picked up the chalk, turned around, and wrote the three big words "Concert" on the blackboard.

As a teacher, she knows her students' temperaments too well.

If nothing unexpected happens, they will be eager to get started and discuss this matter enthusiastically before class.

Instead of letting them have something on their mind while teaching until the end of get out of class and then bringing up the concert, it is better to satisfy their curiosity first. Once their unnecessary curiosity is resolved, their seriousness will be much higher.

"I won't keep you in suspense, let's talk about this semester's concert."

Tsugumi Seina turned around and casually threw the chalk accurately into the chalk box. Then she supported herself on both sides of the podium with her hands, posing as if she was announcing a school activity as usual.

As soon as the words fell, pairs of eyes full of expectation fell on her face.

Tsugumi Seina saw it very clearly: the bright eyes looking at her from below the podium were full of anticipation.

Obviously, her judgment was correct.

If you think about it carefully, it is normal. After all, she was a student before, and her age is there. This is the advantage of being young. There is not too deep a generation gap between her and young people who are in adolescence.

She is very good at thinking from the students' perspective. Because of this, compared with other teachers with relatively richer teaching experience, she can more accurately grasp the students' pain points.

After considering her words for a while, Tsugumi Seina coughed lightly and talked about the concert plan notified by the school, "Compared to last semester, our concert this semester no longer has such strict venue facilities.

“Listening to a concert in an auditorium sounds like a ceremonial event, and in fact, it is, but the problem is that the auditorium can only accommodate a limited number of people.

"In previous years, concerts would subconsciously exclude senior high school students, partly to help them focus on the upcoming exams that might even determine a part of their lives.

"On the other hand, the school auditorium really can't accommodate so many people.

“Based on the attendance in previous years, the auditorium has always been able to accommodate just the right number of people. Sometimes, some unlucky students have to stand to watch the entire concert.

“So, the school decided to complete a well-deserved change.

"The venue for the concert has been changed to an open-air playground. As for the number of performers from each class, there is no longer a limit on the number of participants. The appropriate musical instruments will be placed on the stage. Those who are interested can sign up and queue up to play.

"Then, a comprehensive score will be given based on the on-site scoring - that is, everyone's feelings - and the judges' comments.

“In short, everyone can think of this concert as another form of music festival.”

After finishing such a long list of contents in one breath, Tsuchiya Seina slowly exhaled a breath of foul air, then opened the water cup and took a sip of lemon black tea.

This was the tea Miao had brewed in the morning. She thought it tasted good, so she shamelessly went to get a cup.

However, Miao was quite generous and poured her a full cup.

call.

After closing the lid of the water cup, a feeling of 'finally alive' flashed across Tsugumi Seirina's eyes.

"Then there was the customary raising of hands and questioning session."

After putting the water cup away, Tsugumi Seirina raised her eyebrows and looked towards the audience.

The discipline in Class A is much better now than it was in the first year of high school. Back then, the moment she finished explaining the specific content, the audience would start to make noise.

Now, we can only say that everyone is growing up.

Swish.

Upon hearing this, more than ten hands were raised at once, and some of the more active students even raised two hands.

"Hmm...Takizawa-san, please ask first."

After hesitating for a moment, Tsuchiya Serina called out Takizawa Kaoru's name first.

It’s not that she is partial or anything, but the other few people always do something cruel during such serious moments, such as creating some show effects or something.

For the overall smooth operation of the class, she could only click on those few people who would give relatively serious answers, such as Takizawa Kaoru and Kiriyama Taku.

"I have two questions. The first one is, what if there are too many people from one class at this concert? I mean, there are multiple programs." Takizawa Xun stood up from his seat and asked this question. Then, he continued, "The second one is also an extension of the first question. Is there no limit on the number of performers in each class?"

"Your two questions are actually the same, but the second question is a supplement to the first one." Tsugumi Seina smiled and shook her head, "First of all, the concert is scheduled for a whole day, so there is no time limit.

“Secondly, no matter how many students from a class go up, the performance score will only be counted based on the highest performance.

“As for the rest, this concert is not based on a points accumulation system.

"So, you understand?"

Hearing this, Takizawa Kaoru nodded thoughtfully, said "I understand" and then sat down.

If only the highest score is taken, it means that everyone can participate in this concert. As long as you are not too eye-catching, you can go up and show off.

But normally speaking, the only people who can participate are those who are confident in their own abilities.

After all, no one wants to embarrass themselves in front of so many people in the school, right?

"Then, everyone can continue to raise their hands."

After saying this, Tsugumi Seina looked towards the audience expectantly.

Now, she can give a little bit more attention to those students who like to create some show effects.

But to her surprise, those students all took their hands back, looking very frustrated.

It was obvious that they must have had some ulterior motives just now, such as letting everyone go up, with the main goal of getting points. No matter whether it was high or low, isn't it enough to get first place in the total points?

But it is obvious that the school has already thought of all the loopholes they can think of.

Instead of having a bunch of people go up and make a fool of themselves, it is better to let those who are talented in this area go up and strive to get the highest score.

"Is that all right?"

After looking at the audience several times and seeing no one raising their hands, Tsugumi Makina asked this question with a helpless look on her face.

"Nothing."

This time, the students answered in unison.
