Is it okay not to want to work hard?

Higashino Kanade nodded again.

His room was occupied by Xiaoling and Yuzuru, the tatami room was occupied by Nijika and Naoko, and although Kikuri's room was empty, he was too lazy to sleep in Kikuri's room. It was nice to sleep in the kotatsu in the game room, and if the upper body was exposed, you could cover it with a quilt so you didn't have to worry about catching a cold.

"I want to sleep here too."

Izumi Konata wants to sleep with Tono Kanade.

"Then go get the quilt."

Dongye Kanade reluctantly opened his eyes and walked towards the bathroom. He was a little too lazy to take a bath, but after hesitating for a long time, he decided to take a bath. After all, the water in the bathtub was ready, and it would not be too late for him to take a bath and have a nice soak before going to bed.

Anyway, it's daybreak.

Higashino Kanade looked out the window and realized that it was already morning. It looked like he would have to sleep through the day and going to the shrine to pray was impossible.

Well, if you can't go, then you can't go.

Higashino Kanade, who hadn't woken up yet, was still groggy, with all kinds of chaotic thoughts floating in his head.

In the new year, we should still maintain a leisurely state.

You can't be too hard-working in life. Eat when you should, drink when you should, play when you should, pose when you should, and work hard when you should. It's uncomfortable to push yourself too hard.

Rinsed by the hot water, Higashino Kanade finally regained consciousness, and in his heart he was thinking about what he should do this year.

Of course, he should go to school and comics, and as for animation, he should think about when he should start, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or after the family visit. Oh, and there is Jump's annual meeting in two weeks, or after the meeting?

Higashino Kanade had a lot of ideas, but he just thought about it. If he really wanted to make up his mind, he would have to wait until he woke up. This party also wanted him to sell the book at the comic convention, but he was hesitant at this time. After all, fans also hoped that his book would have a physical version instead of just an electronic version.

After taking a bath, Higashino Kanade dried her hair and returned to the game room. At this time, Chi Fang had fallen asleep with a quilt covering her, but she was not very peaceful in her sleep and the quilt was not covered properly.

"You're already this old, but you still sleep like this."

Higashino Kanade helped Izumi Konata cover the quilt, and he also got into the kotatsu, lying on his side on the floor covered with bedding, covering himself with the quilt or blanket and sleeping peacefully.

The first day of the new year is a daytime nap (? ). This is a good start. I will sleep (? ) most of the daytime today.

Higashino Kanade slept until the afternoon. He could have slept until dark, but in the afternoon there was a noise in the game room. From the noise, it sounded like Konoha and Hongxia were arguing about something. He listened carefully and found that they were arguing about the game.

"You guys are so noisy."

Higashino started playing and saw that the game room was full of people, including Konata, Nijika, Naoko, Yuzuru, and Rin.

"woke up?"

Izumi Konata, who was watching TV, turned around and saw Higashino Kanade blinking.

"Yeah, you woke me up."

Higashino Kanade rubbed his eyes, stood up and stretched his muscles.

He felt a little uncomfortable. Although the quilt was warm, he seemed to have been roasted for too long. His body felt hot and his mouth was dry.

Wash your face and drink some water.

Higashino Kanade didn't watch Izumi Konata and the others playing games. He found his phone, checked the time, and went to wash his face.

It’s five o’clock in the afternoon, and it’s almost time to prepare dinner.

"It's another day where I haven't done anything, but the day is almost over."

Holding the cup of hot water, Higashino Kanade blew the hot water and looked at the sky outside the window and couldn't help but sigh. Although the sun had not set yet, it was beginning to set and the day was about to end.

This is what staying up all night is like, it gives you the feeling that time passes quickly.

But it's a holiday anyway, there's tomorrow after today, and the day after tomorrow after tomorrow. Unfortunately, he's still a student, and can't live a beautiful life where every day is like Sunday. When he graduates from high school or college, and his comics are suspended or he stops writing, he will probably be able to live a leisurely life where every day is like Sunday.

When the time comes, take Cifang and the others on a trip together.

"Xiaozou, I want to go home."

Ijichi Kouka came out of the game room and said to Tono Kanade who was drinking water in the living room.

"Aren't you going back after dinner?"

Higashino Kanade didn't expect Hongxia to come home at this time.

"My sister is asking me for help." Ichichi Hongxia sighed, "My sister is not good at cooking. I have to go back and cook."

"Go back to cook for her? Why don't you call her over and let her eat here."

Higashino Kanade thought that instead of letting Hongxia go home to cook, it would be better to let Xingge come to the studio to eat.

"That's not good."

Ichichi Hongxia was a little moved. She didn't really want to go home. It was cold outside, and she wanted to stay in the studio for a while during her rare vacation. If she went home, she would either cook or clean. In her spare time, she would either practice drums or watch TV. It was quite boring.

"What's wrong with that? I told her, and you said she might not agree, but I said she would definitely agree."

Higashino Kanade believed that as long as he invited Xingge to the studio for dinner, Xingge would definitely come. If she didn't come, he would use Ichichi's mother-in-law to control her.

"That's up to you!"

Yidi Zhihongxia was very happy.

That’s great, I don’t have to go home to cook when I’m hungry!

"Ah."

Dongye Zou took a sip of the slightly cooled hot water, and with his other hand he took out his cell phone to contact Xingge, asking her to come over for dinner.

Oh, there's no food in the fridge, I need to go buy some. I'll randomly pick a lucky person from the game room to go shopping with him. Forget about Hongxia, I'll choose between eating, Naoko, and Yuzuru. Don't ask why there's no Xiaoling, the answer is that she's not good at anything, and she's the best at eating snacks.

If you take Xiao Ling with you, you will definitely have to buy a lot of snacks. Snacks are not a problem, but who will take them is a problem. Xiao Ling, that little girl, will definitely not want to take large bags of snacks, and in the end, they will still have to be handed over to him as her brother.

Well, let’s catch Yuzuru.

Higashino Kanade thought about it and decided to bring Yuzuru along. It wasn't to cultivate a relationship with Yuzuru, but because Yuzuru liked photography, he liked to go out more, so it was more appropriate to bring her along.

Chapter 60 Ordinary Daily Life

"why me?"

Outside the apartment, the cold snow hit Yuzuru Nishimiya's face.

"Because of love, well, because you like photography."

Higashino Kanade pointed at the SLR camera hanging around Nishimiya Yuzuru's neck.

“Why do you have to drag me out just because you like photography?”

Nishimiya Yuzuru looked up at the sky in silence. She didn’t quite understand Tono Kanade’s logic.

"Photography is all about traveling around, and you want to take pictures of winter, so take more pictures. You can't miss taking pictures of winter on the first day of the new year."

Higashino Kanade touched Nishimiya Yuzuru's head, and the warm feeling was really nice.

"Ok."

Yuzuru Nishimiya held up his SLR and took a photo of Kanade Higashino.

She does like to run around. After all, if she wants to take pictures, it is impossible for her to stay at home all day taking pictures of the scenery at home.

But it's too cold today.

I don’t know if it’s because the house is too warm, but it feels freezing cold outside.

"Let's go buy groceries. Do you want me to carry you, little friend?"

Higashino Kanade patted Nishimiya Yuzuru's head again.

Thinking back three years ago, he was a dwarf like Yuzuru, but now he is taller than Konata.

"do not want!"

Nishimiya Yuzuru slapped Tono Kanade's hand away in dissatisfaction.

You can touch the head, but you can’t pat it. Touching the head can make you grow taller, but patting the head will not make you grow taller.

Higashino Kanade opened the umbrella, and Nishimiya Yuzuru walked over consciously.

"It snows all the time in Tokyo. The textbooks clearly teach that Tokyo is not a city where it snows easily. Why does it snow every year now, and it often snows heavily?"

Higashino Kanade looked up at the sky and talked to himself. Although he was asking this question, he actually knew the answer. This was nothing more than a romantic two-dimensional everyday world. Only the constant snowing could prove that this was the two-dimensional world.

"do not know."

Nishimiya Yuzuru shook his head.

She is only in primary school, how could she understand geography?

"I don't know...uh..."

Dongye Zou wanted to say something but stopped himself. He couldn't say anything because if he said it, it would be a disaster.

"What? You don't know what?"

Yuzuru Nishimiya looked up and took another photo of Kanade Higashino.

"If you don't know, you'll get beaten."

Higashino Kanade patted Nishimiya Yuzuru on the head.

“That’s annoying!” Nishimiya Yuzuru slapped Higashino Kanade’s hand away again and said seriously, “Don’t hit my head. What if I don’t grow taller?”

"It's okay. If she can't grow tall, then she can't grow tall. She's cute even if she's short." Higashino Kanade comforted her. "Your sister Konata can't grow tall. Her height is just like this. You see, although she's not tall, it doesn't affect her cuteness, right?"

"No, I want to be like my sister."

Nishimiya Yuzuru shook her head without hesitation. She couldn't accept becoming like Konoha's sister. Not to mention the height, she couldn't accept her figure and the heart of an uncle.

"why?"

Dongye Kanade laughed. Obviously he knew why. He asked this on purpose.

"Because... because of love."

Nishimiya Yuzuru winked playfully.

"What are you talking about at such a young age?"

Higashino Kanade looked down at Nishimiya Yuzuru, and when he met Yuzuru's eyes he shook his head.

Kids nowadays are really smart.

“I learned it from you.”

Nishimiya Yuzuru retorted.

There were not many people on the road on a snowy day. The grocery store that Tono Kanade often went to was not open today, so he went to the supermarket to buy some vegetables, some meat, and some fruit.

"It's so cold!"

Coming out of the warm supermarket with air conditioning, Yuzuru Nishimiya felt the coldness of the world again, which was a bit unbearable. In such weather, you shouldn't go out, just stay in the warm room, crawl into the fireplace, eat senbei and watch funny variety shows or cartoons on TV.

"If you're cold, here's the scarf."

Higashino Kanade was holding vegetables in both his left and right hands. He bent down and tried to give his scarf to them.

Normally when they go out, this person always tries to snatch his scarf, not for any other reason, but just to make sure he doesn't have any scarf to wear.

"no need."

Nishimiya Yuzuru shook her head. She was holding some fruit in her left hand and holding an umbrella in her right hand, so it was not very convenient for her to hold the scarf.

"Then hurry home."

Higashino Kanade and Nishimiya Yuzuru walked on the street holding umbrellas, looking like a pair of siblings. Because of their hair color, Higashino Kanade and Higashino Suzu are siblings, but they don't look that much like siblings. The same is true for Nishimiya Yuzuru and Nishimiya Shoko. Their hair colors are different, so the sense of blood relationship is not that strong.

Higashino Kanade and Nishimiya Yuzuru have the same hair color, although their eye colors are different, but to passers-by they do look like siblings.

Fortunately they are not.

Higashino Kanade looked at Nishimiya Yuzuru without any extra thoughts in her mind. She just thought it was incredible that Yuzuru, who is so small now, would become such a big but not particularly big cool girl in the future.

He was also thinking about whether he should continue to think about Yuzuru. The girl next door is growing up sounds good, but in reality, well, if he were an uncle, it would definitely be abnormal. But for him, a junior high school student, it seems that it is not impossible. Moreover, the age gap between him and Kikuri is much larger than the gap between Yuzuru and him. If Kikuri is fine, then Yuzuru is not impossible either.

But, he always felt something strange. Yuzuru seemed to be becoming like a younger sister. When it came to treating his younger sister...when he thought of Xiaoling, he completely lost those worldly desires.

Well, let's think about this matter after high school. When he is in high school and Yuzuru is in junior high school, he can then consider whether to make a decisive move or to get entangled. Now, let's not talk about anything else. It's not a good idea to just sit there and watch the pot when we know the strength of Hongxia and Ichiri. What if we are willing but unable to do anything at that time? Right?

Snowy days are beautiful when viewed from a distance, but not so beautiful when actually experienced, for example, walking on the street. The ground is not only slippery, but also muddy. Sometimes the snow falls into the sleeves and clothes, which is even more uncomfortable.
