I'm a weird expert in Japan

Lian complained in her heart, but her body remained honest and motionless, more stable than Rohan on the shore.

The location is in the classroom after school.

One of the two people who was talking to Lian was called Sawamura Spencer Eriri, the daughter of a British diplomat in Japan, a blonde mixed-race girl, and one of the four beauties of the private Toyonosaki Academy.

By the way, Kasumigaoka Utaha is also one of the “Four Greats”.

As for the other two... we'll talk about them later.

He is also one of the few friends of Shijo Ren, the ace of the school's art department, and secretly the famous R18 comic artist Kashiwagi Eri.

Although Lian admits that he has a low acceptance level for the humiliation genre, he has no choice but to accept that Eriri's style of drawing is very impressive, making her one of the few illustrators of the humiliation genre that he can accept.

I will not list the other big guys that Lian likes, such as Mickey King, Hinasakiba, Okumoto Yuta, etc. one by one.

As for why I became friends with her, it has to do with another person next to her, Eriri's partner - Shinomiya Shitsugu.

To Si Tiao Lian, there is nothing more ridiculous in the world than having a relative who is one year younger than him, but is at least two generations older than him, and whom he still has to call "uncle grandfather" even if he is out of the fifth degree of mourning.

But when Lian thought about her two cousins ​​who were in a similar situation, she felt a lot more balanced.

Shinomiya Shion is the youngest son of the Shinomiya family, one of Japan's leading chaebols. He has three older brothers and one older sister.

Strictly speaking, Shizhu and her sister were born to the same mother, but her three brothers were not, so there is a difference in the degree of closeness between them.

As for Lian's father, he is the younger brother of the current head of the Shijo family.

By the way, his mother's last name is Utsunomiya, and his current stage name when performing is based on his mother's last name.

The Shijo family is a new family formed by people who left the Shinomiya family decades ago, and is gradually returning to the Japanese business world.

The people in power of the two families are naturally incompatible, but that does not affect the relationship between the younger generations, and they are actually quite good in private.

For example, lian and dianthus.

As for the specific cause, it is also very simple.

Lian, who had just made her debut as a violinist at the age of twelve, was helped by Shizuo Shinobi, who was visiting backstage, to solve the problem of replacing her broken violin during her first performance.

He wanted to thank him, but Shizhu responded with a cool line like "I'm just a Kamen Rider passing by."

Knowing that the other party wanted to say the famous line to show off his feelings, Lian said a little bit sarcastically at the time, "You still can't eat sea cucumber now, sir?"

So Sigong Dianthus didn't get to enjoy it.

At the same time, Eriri, who was present, burst into laughter because Shizhu was humiliated.

Through this opportunity, everyone gradually became friends because of their common interests.

But in general, as a young violinist, Ren spent more time apart from the two of them than they did together. It was not until half a year ago that he transferred back to Japan and became a student at the same school, and only then did he have more opportunities to meet them.

The school was recommended by Shizhu, but since he also studied here instead of going to Shuchiin, Lian always felt that there was a lot of secrets behind it, and it would be interesting to reveal it all sooner or later.

"Think about it...the name Kasumigaoka Utaha is quite interesting, isn't it?" Lian said casually.

Shizhu used a pen to calculate the proportion of Lian, "Kasumigaoka is a place name, right? Although I don't remember there is a place called 'Kasumigaoka' in Japan."

"I mean the name, 'Utaha'," Lian said.

"What's so special about the name?" Ying Lili sat down at the table and glanced at Shizhu's drawing.

Originally, the art department was supposed to practice in the activity room, but Lian didn't want to go there, so the two of them chose the classroom where Lian was.

It's just a sketch anyway, and I'll clean it up after I'm done.

And there are no other students yet.

"It's written as 'poetry' (shi) but read as 'song' (uta), and with the addition of wings (hane)." Lian thought, "In other words, poetry has grown wings, full of artistic sense, isn't it?"

Eriri was speechless, "You are indeed an artist..."

"Sorry, your thinking is too artistic and I can't keep up." Shizhu raised his hands in surrender.

Lian was so angry that she couldn't stand still. "You guys are talking so indifferently! It's as if you are not artists!"

"I'm not saying this, it's good to do art, but not everyone can make a debut like you, sell CDs, hold concerts, and do it all in one go." Shi Zhu put his hand on his arm, "Don't do art if you're drawing a book. There is only one '70s Long-standing Organization'."

"That's right, it's easier to do color, and you can make money." Eriri closed her eyes, "Doing art is just a school assignment."

"Are you into art?" Shizhu asked Eriri.

"I don't do it." Eriri shook her head. "Do you do it?"

"Neither do I."

“Can you make a living by doing art?”

"How about trying it out in the beer hall?" Shizhu smiled.

"ill!"

The two of them high-fived happily.

"It's true that summer insects can't talk about ice." Lian rolled her eyes. "Come to think of it, Kasumigaoka Utaha writes novels, right?"

"It's a light novel, to be exact." Eriri added, "She's not an artist either."

"..." Lian was almost speechless.

"Turn slightly 4.396 degrees. The position of the setting sun has changed, and the shadow area on your face is a bit larger." Shizhu tilted his head to examine Lian's facial features. "I remember you have read her book? Kasumi Shiko's "Love Metronome"?"

"Are you a robot?! You need such a precise angle!" Lian complained while turning slightly, "I've seen it, but we didn't eat together at that time. It was recommended by Sawamura. Haven't you finished watching it yet?"

"I have a disease that will kill me if I read more than five lines of a book."

"You were talking about dense text last time!" Lian completely lost his balance and stood shakily.

"Well, that's pretty much what Shizhu's 'incurable disease' is all about." Eriri crossed her arms, looked at Shizhu and laughed a few times, then said in an awkward tone, "Anyway, that woman isn't that great, but the books she wrote are pretty good... although I really don't want to admit it."

Section 13 Chapter 2 "I often feel out of tune with you because I am not silly enough" ()

Eriri's attitude seemed very unnatural, but Shizhu didn't say anything.

"But weren't you quite happy when you recommended it to us?" Lian didn't ask, but just posed again and continued asking.

"I was unwilling to accept that. I was hoping that Shizhu would criticize me after reading it." Ying Lili snorted and turned her face away to argue, "Who knew that Shizhu didn't even finish reading it."

Shizhu looked innocent, "I told you I have—"

"Reading books can kill you." Ying Lili looked at Shi Zhu unhappily, "Okay, I've remembered it. By the way, why were you able to finish reading the four articles?"

Lian was immediately embarrassed. He lowered his eyes, then raised his head and looked to the side sadly. "Do you know that the existence of fans can be very scary sometimes?"

"No way?" Eriri opened her eyes wide. "Every time I release a new book, my fans will only say things like 'great', 'PRPR', 'go for it' under the new work preview on the 'egoistic-lily' homepage or official account."

Her answer was so shocking that Lian lost her balance again and sat on the chair behind her.

"Eri...there are differences between fans and fans." Shizhu covered his face.

Her fan club is basically a collection of LSPs who like the book.

Lian is a violinist and a real public figure, so the nature of her fans is different.

"Anyway, it was the one that Shizhu gave me. I put it on my dressing table, and when I posted a pre-performance photo report on Twitter, I accidentally took a photo of it." Lian shrugged. "It was noticed by careful fans, and many people started asking me about it... Plus, I basically never talked about it on Twitter before..."

Shizhu snapped his fingers and gloated, "It ended up trending on Twitter. You thought you were in the spotlight."

"The enemy is in Honnoji!" Eriri echoed with great momentum.

"Hahahaha—" Shizhu laughed, "So what you mean is..."

"When fans were discussing their opinions on Twitter, I couldn't just play dead..." Lian covered her face, "So I just went and watched it, and I found it was pretty good."

"So you bought the whole set?" Ying Lili shook her head. "It's not easy for you either."

"Ahahaha..." Lian brought the topic back with a smile, "So I personally have a good impression of "Love Metronome". But where did you recommend the book, Sawamura, and you also complained about the author. Did you have a conflict?"

“…Who, who had a conflict…” Eriri defended herself guiltily.

Shizhu glanced at Ying Lili, put his hand on her shoulder, and smiled helplessly: "It's not that serious. We could have continued the conversation at that time..."

"I was just giving face to my partner." Ying Lili rolled her eyes at Shizhu.

At that time, she was bothered by the fact that Kasumigaoka Utaha and Aki Tomoya were too close, so she wanted to find fault with Utaha.

However, Shizhu persuaded Eriri to stop the incident, so that her contact was not so provocative.

They did continue chatting, but the ending was still a bit unpleasant. If Shizhu hadn't been there, they would probably have started arguing.

"Anyway, Kasumigaoka-senpai doesn't like to communicate with others. If you are interested in her, do your homework in advance."

"Don't like... communicating with people?" Lian wondered if she had done something wrong.

Kasumigaoka Utaha is not only not a socially anxious person, she is simply a walking sharp-tongued machine, always quick to speak. Lian wishes she could turn into a bat and not speak.

"Well, I think so. At least he knows how to identify his target." Shizhu continued, "He is quite similar to you in this respect."

"Hey……"

Eriri couldn't help laughing, "Indeed, in this respect you two are on the same side."

"Aren't you human?"

"What about us?"

“…” Lian was at a loss for words.

"Even with the senior who lost to you in the Second Music Room, you didn't have much communication." Shizhu continued.

Lian twisted her neck stiffly, "I just wanted to share the second music room... It became like that because of the situation..."

"It's obvious that whatever the teacher says is what it is." Eriri narrowed her eyes.

"Don't, don't make me sound like the top student over there!" Lian pointed at Shizhu in protest.

He stopped posing and Shizhu couldn't continue painting, so he pursed his upper lip and put down the brush.

"Who told me that that was Mr. Hanekawa~~~~"

"Shizhu, shut up..." Lian glared guiltily.

"Having said so much, Lian is actually very concerned about Kasumigaoka-senpai's affairs, right?"

"Well……"

If we blur the specific meaning of "concerned", then I am indeed concerned...I am concerned about what kind of weirdness has entangled Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"It turns out that men like that kind of vulgar figure." Ying Lili said with disdain.

"Who made Lian's taste so special?" Shizhu smiled mischievously, and the pen fell from his face.

"That's better than you who likes tablets!" Lian became angry and started to sabotage each other.

"What do you mean by flat? This is a normal body shape." Shizhu put his hands on Yinglili's shoulders from the side righteously.

Ying Lili was stunned for a moment, "Are you talking about me?"

"Give me an example." Shizhu lowered his head to pick up the fallen pencil.

"Hehehe, you are really good at talking. Very good, very good, very good, very good -" Ying Lili laughed and put her arms around Shizhu's neck, while her other hand kept rubbing his head.

"Be gentle, my head is not a flint." Shizhu kept struggling.

Si Tiao Lian watched as the two guys started to have attacks again and was too lazy to say anything more.

I thought they might be able to provide some information since they have been in this school for a long time... but it seems... there is nothing useful.

If I continue asking, who knows what the two of them might ask me in return, and that would be putting the cart before the horse.

He plans to continue posing as a model, and it was agreed that I would treat him to a meal out later.

Lian was planning to eat and drink a lot at dinner to make up for the rip-off from the two men.

This is called loss shifting.

however……

He suddenly looked out the door that was not closed.

"Sorry, I have to leave first today." Lian grabbed her schoolbag.

The two people who were fighting stopped.

"Didn't we agree to have dinner together?" Shizhu was surprised.
