Tokyo Soft Rice King

He had heard his mother say that when he was three years old, she was pregnant for the second time.

But because of the one-child policy at the time, the family did not want this child, so when Hei Yuming grew up, he had to support the family alone... Sometimes Hei Yuming also felt that it would be nice to have a brother or sister.

However, it is precisely because I don’t have a younger sister that I can write this kind of sister-con novel! This is the power of fantasy!

"I see... If you have a younger sister, she would probably blush and feel her heart beating fast after reading this light novel."

It's like a long love letter to my sister...

Fortunately, he doesn't have a younger sister, otherwise it might cause some misunderstandings within the family, and might even turn into a very bad situation.

"But this work is really interesting. Kuroba-kun is really talented..."

"Hey, thanks for the compliment."

Anri Hitomi admired from the bottom of her heart, but the uneasiness in her heart also became stronger.

I'm afraid that after this light novel is released, there will be a wave of sister control across the country.

As an enlightenment work, the sales of this light novel will also increase.

He will become very famous and make a lot of money, and then my value to him will become less and less...

This won't work.

I have to work harder to catch up with him... otherwise he will never look at me and will only get further and further away from me.

Anri Hitomi once again made up her mind that as his friend, she must acquire the talent to be able to move forward side by side with him no matter what.

Never be abandoned.

Chapter 132 She’s Here to Collect the Debt

On the other hand, Aizono Moeie's reaction after watching it was as if she was struck by lightning. Her shocked expression was like a frozen picture, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

After she came to her senses, she shouted to Hei Yuming excitedly.

"Kuroba-san! This work is sure to be a hit!"

Aizono Moeie, who usually speaks softly, made such an assertion at this moment.

After she finished speaking, she felt embarrassed, blushing slightly and waving her hands repeatedly.

"Ah, sorry... Maybe what I said doesn't have much credibility... But I've read a lot of light novels, and I really think this work has potential!"

"I feel relieved with your words, Aiyuan-san."

Moe Aizono is the only one among the three girls in the literature club who is a real audience for light novels. Her evaluation is roughly equivalent to the real evaluation of readers, which gives Kuroba Akira more confidence.

"Mengmeng is right. This work will definitely be a hit, and I will make it even better."

"Well, then I'll leave it to you, Shiori. Let's practice with the prologue today."

"Okay, leave it to me!"

Shirai Shiori took out a stack of draft paper and placed it to the right of the manuscript. She wrote while looking at it, carefully considering the choice of words and sentences, and immediately got into the state.

On the other side, Aizono Moe also raised her hand and asked.

"Um, Kuroba-san, can I start drawing the character designs for the heroines now?"

"Oh? Have you figured out how to draw it?"

"Because Kuroba-san's descriptions of the heroines were so complete, I could immediately imagine what they would look like...especially the younger sister. I feel like I can draw her right now!"

"That's no problem, Aiyuan-san, why don't you try drawing first? I also want to get to know your style."

Kuroba Ming had never seen how well Aizono Moe painted before. Although his proficiency was definitely not bad, every artist has a different style, so he still had to see it to know if it was suitable.

But since she likes light novels and comics very much, the style should be more two-dimensional, which is exactly what Kuroba Akira wants.

"Yeah! I'll draw it right away!"

Aiyuan Menghui was full of energy. She took out the sketchbook that she always kept in her schoolbag and started drawing the character design with a pencil.

After a while, the draft of my sister's character was completed.

After seeing this, the muscles on Hei Yuming's face trembled slightly due to extreme shock.

Because Aizono Moeie has talent and relevant proficiency, he had raised his psychological expectations, but the result still exceeded his imagination.

Seeing Hei Yuming's expression, he asked cautiously.

"Um...Is my drawing bad?"

"Do not……"

Not bad, but great.

The lines are very clean and fine, and it doesn't even look like a draft, but more like a line drawing.

This shows that Aizono Moeie has a steady hand and already has a complete composition idea in her mind, so she can wield the brush without any hesitation when painting.

The painting style is a bit old-fashioned, but it’s not her fault, because this is the popular style in this world. It’s just that Hei Yuming’s aesthetic is more advanced.

He originally thought that because Aizono Moeie liked boys' comics, the style might be a bit tough, but in reality, it seemed that his worries were unnecessary.

Moreover, the painting style can be adjusted, and you can guide her yourself to make her style ahead of this era.

"Aiono-san, your drawing is amazing. It's beyond my imagination."

Aizono Moehui was delighted by the praise. She patted her big chest and said with relief with a bright smile.

"Really? That's great... I'm pretty good at drawing people, so I'm a little confident..."

"By the way, I forgot to ask before, Aiyuan-san, can you color?"

"Yes, I usually use colored pencils and watercolors for coloring. I'm more adept at the celuloid style...ah, celuloid refers to a coloring style."

"I know. Even though I can't draw, I still have some knowledge in this area."

Celluloid painting style refers to an extreme flat painting style, characterized by clear distinction between light and dark, distinct blocks, and a very refreshing look.

However, with the popularization of computer software painting, layering has become very convenient, and the thick painting style has gradually replaced the celluloid style.

Of course, there is also a pseudo-thick painting style in between... which is to use thick painting techniques on the basis of flat painting to make the picture more three-dimensional.

Since Aizono Moehui is purely hand-painted, it is not surprising that it is better at flat painting.

Anyway, she has no problem with coloring. Of course, it would be better if she could learn to apply thickly, but we will talk about that later.

"So what are you not good at drawing?"

Aizono Moeie tapped her chin and thought for a moment before saying this.

"Hmm... probably architecture... I can draw it, but the speed will be very slow..."

"Is that so... But it doesn't matter. This light novel won't require you to draw any major scenes. It's mainly about drawing the characters, so it's your forte."

"Yeah! I'll try my best to draw the heroine cute!"

In fact, what Kuroba Akira is most satisfied with is that Aizono Moe's understanding of the characters is very thorough.

She really read the novel carefully and liked it very much, otherwise it would not be so suitable for her.

Therefore, the image of the sister she drew is very consistent with the description in the novel. There is a hint of danger hidden in the cuteness, and the clothing design is also very appropriate, with the flavor of a home girl.

No matter how good the artist's drawing skills are, if he fails to grasp the cuteness of the character, the character he draws will always be a little lacking.

But Moe Aizono had no problem at all in this regard. She didn't even need Kuroba Akira to point out the key points. She drew a character sketch that required almost no modification.

This is the advantage of having design proficiency...!

Too strong! I really found a treasure!

But at the same time, Hei Yuming also felt confused.

If you have such talent, why would you join the literature club? Wouldn't it be better to join a club like the Manga Research Club?

And if she loves comics so much, why doesn't she create her own work? Doesn't she want to be a comic artist?

But Hei Yuming didn't ask any more questions. There was no need to understand such things, nor was there any need to create unnecessary trouble.

It was enough for her to continue illustrating for herself like this.

"Anyway, I'm very satisfied with this character."

"Hehe... As long as you're satisfied, Kuroba-san, do you want me to design the rest of the characters now?"

"No, let's finish the rest of the character designs later. Although your drawing of the little sister is already very good, I still want to make some suggestions for revisions... Is that okay?"

Aizono Moehui is not the type to insist on her own way. She will prioritize meeting the needs of others, so she is not opposed to changes at all and nodded in agreement.

"Sure, Kuroba-san, just tell me. I'll definitely work hard to change!"

Just waiting for your words!

"That's good, but let's put off the revisions until tomorrow. It's getting late, so let's disband for today."

"what……"

Aiyuan Menghui glanced at the time. It was almost seven o'clock. Generally, club activities ended at this time. Non-sports clubs would end even earlier. The school gates would be locked around eight o'clock in the evening.

Of course, there are no evening classes... High school students in Japan really have a great time.

Today the meeting was extended to this time because everyone had to read the manuscript of Kuroba Akira's novel first. Usually the literature and art club would be disbanded much earlier.

"And Shiori too. I'll see how your polishing is going tomorrow."

"Well, I'll continue after I get back and try to finish polishing the prologue."

Shirai Shiori nodded, put away the completed part, and then went back with Aizono Moe, both of them with smiles on their faces.

Hei Yuming also started packing his schoolbag to go home. At this time, An Litong came to his side with his hands behind his back and said with a smile.

"So, Kuroba-kun, how do we settle our bet?"

"Ha ha……"

After all, there is no escape...

The class monitor won the previous bet, and she came to collect the debt.

Chapter 133: The Universe Hidden Under the Girl's Skirt

However, a shameless person like Kuroba Akira certainly couldn't honestly accept the fact that he lost and fulfill the bet like Shirai Shiori did.

Adults are just better at playing tricks. What’s more important than face is profit.

So Hei Yuming avoided the question and spoke.

"Putting aside the bet, squad leader, do you think I did pretty well this time?"

An Litong followed his words and praised him.

"Yes, you did a great job. Not only did you completely change Shiori's opinion of you, you even got her involved in the production of the light novel. This way, Moe-moe and Shiori have similar interests, and you've solved the hedgehog effect."

"Hmm! Great summary!"

"If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to solve it so perfectly. I'm impressed by you, Kuroba-kun, this time, so I'll give you a pat on the head, okay?"

Asato Hitomi extended her hand with a smile, and Kuroba Akira immediately knelt on one knee like a general receiving a reward, nodded and waited.

"Please."

"Haha, Kuroba-kun really loves to act like a spoiled brat. Do you want to see the scenery under skirts again?"

"I really didn't mean that..."

Only then did Hei Yuming realize that after he knelt on one knee, his line of sight was level with the hem of the class monitor's skirt.

However, he just got into the act when he was with the squad leader, so he performed this act, and he really didn't have any evil thoughts.

"Okay, okay, I understand. I'll give you some rewards."

But Anri Hitomi showed an expression that said 'I know everything', walked forward with a smile, and came right in front of Hei Yuming.

This "in front" is the real "in front", because the tip of Hei Yuming's nose is almost touching the fabric of the class monitor's skirt.
