Chapter 605 372 Happiness
Chapter 605: The Happiness of Three Hundred and Seventy-Two
The students of Kyoto University are so abstract. Two of them put their hands on each other's shoulders and turned them into a table. There are also two guys who turn into Dogeza forms one after another and stack on top of each other like the combination of the Beasts Sentai Powermon, and then shout "Teacher Hojo, please take a seat!"
Even if Hojo Kyosuke was a very cunning man, if he really sat on it, wouldn't his good brother be crushed by that guy's head?
Fortunately, before he could say anything, other students from Beijing University kicked the "four brothers of tables and chairs" away one by one. Playing and joking aside, the quality of students from these prestigious schools is still quite good. In other words, those who can find girlfriends to show off their love on the riverbank are considered outstanding in school, so the order of this sudden fan meeting was maintained very well.
"If possible, please write it to Hasegawa Akemi by the Kamogawa River. That's my girlfriend. She likes Hojo-sensei very much, but she didn't come today because she had something else to do."
The boy at the front of the line bowed and asked, and Hojo Kyosuke took the photo handed over by Sakura and wrote down the words as he was told. After taking the photo, the boy was surprised to find that it was not an ordinary business photo, but a private photo of Hojo teacher.
In the photo, Hojo Kyosuke is wearing a blue-dyed kendo uniform with a stern expression, holding a bamboo sword high in one hand. Opposite him, there is a person whose back can only be seen, swinging a sword towards him. The person taking the photo has quite good skills, and a murderous aura is almost emanating from it.
"I asked Mitsuha to take the photos." Sakura said with a smile, and then opened the dozen photos in his hand into a fan shape like playing cards.
Hojo Kyosuke took a quick look. They were all taken during the kendo training session that day. Some were of him chopping down one person, some were of him chopping down two people, some were of him chopping down three, four, a group...
"Ohhh! That! Miss, I want the one with corpses lying at Hojo teacher's feet!" A girl raised her hands high and shouted, and other people who stretched their heads like her also shouted.
That photo was exactly the one of Hojo Kyosuke chopping down Tojo, Kaiku, Onizuka and others all by himself.
The ground was filled with people lying all over the place, only Hojo Kyosuke stood tall, holding a bamboo sword in his hand, looking handsome and cool.
"Dameyo~ This is the lucky prize~"
Yingliang spoke soft Kyoto dialect and washed the photos in her hand twice, her technique was quite skillful. When she was a child, she often went to Hojo's house to play cards. Hojo's mother and son plus her, the three of them were just right for playing Landlord. Compared with the complicated flower cards, this kind of cards that don't require much brains are more popular with her.
The crowd then stopped making noise and started signing autographs one by one. Sakura, who was standing nearby, was responsible for taking photos with the fans' phones, but she herself did not appear in any of the photos.
In the gorgeous sunset glow, a strange scene appeared beside the Kamo River.
The couples who usually indulge in their hormones on the banks of the Kamogawa River to poison singles regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter, changed their minds today and left the riverbank. The bent grass was able to stretch its body, and couples lined up in a long queue. Some single guys took the opportunity to insert themselves in the queue, destroying the perfect queue of men and women.
Sakura's prank plan was perfectly realized here.
After noticing this, Hojo Kyosuke looked at Sakura in surprise, only to see that she was staring at the queue, muttering something in her mouth, "Men, men, men, women ...
Is this also part of your calculation? !
The brown-haired girl over there was like a monarch overlooking her own mountains and rivers. She let out a long sigh of satisfaction and turned around. She saw the boy's strange expression, so she smiled playfully and whispered:
"This time, are you satisfied with my trick?"
Satisfied, satisfied. I don't know if Hojo Kyosuke is satisfied, but the fans are satisfied. Many people present had applied for tickets to the Neon Mystery Writers Association but were not selected. They were regretting that they didn't have the chance to witness the deification of Hojo Sensei, but unexpectedly, they caught Hojo Sensei on a date when they went out for a walk with their girlfriends.
Oh, that's not right. Tomorrow is the day of the Neon Mystery Association Awards. For such an important matter, why would Hojo Sensei appear in Kyoto, 400 kilometers away?
With this in mind, someone asked.
"Teacher Hojo, aren't the awards going to be presented tomorrow? Why are you still in Kyoto? Has the venue been changed temporarily?"
"Yeah, is Mr. Hojo planning to protest by not attending the awards ceremony?"
"Protest? Hasn't the Reasoning Society been reformed?"
"..."
As one of the few universities that still operates student-run dormitories, Kyoto University students are extremely enthusiastic about various "movements" and "reforms". The so-called student-run dormitories are that the school does not participate in the management, and the students form an autonomous association to collect dormitory fees to maintain operations. Such a place is naturally suitable for various student movements.
Schools and local governments are certainly not happy to see the existence of such a country within a country, so there are not many student-run dormitories in Japan now.
Now these guys are getting more and more excited, and are already discussing forming a coalition to attack Tokyo Daiichi Hotel tomorrow. Hojo Kyosuke was so scared that he quickly waved his hand to interrupt.
"There's no particular reason for coming to Kyoto now, it's just because I want to see the Kamogawa River today."
He said with a smile, his eyes meeting Sakura's.
Hey——
Hearing these words and looking at the two people's drawn eyes, the person asking the question, the person who was filled with righteous indignation, and the person who didn't understand the severity, all felt like they had suffered tons of hurt.
Is this human language?
At the age of sixteen, and to receive the highest award in the Japanese mystery literature world tomorrow, shouldn't he be so excited that he can't sit still and roll around at home?
But instead of waiting at home, Hojo Kyosuke ran to Kyoto, four hundred miles away, on the eve of the awards ceremony, simply because "he wanted to see the Kamogawa today."
"No wonder Hojo-sensei has so many girlfriends..."
Someone sighed, obviously having seen the girlfriend voting online.
"I'm the childhood sweetheart number one~~" Yamauchi Sakura made a scissors gesture with a bright smile.
"Thank you for the photo. If I had known you were from Kyoto, I would have voted for you! Next time, I will definitely vote for you!" The man bowed quickly.
The signing continues.
“Please write “It’s not just the days in a year that are over 300 pounds, your wife’s weight can also be over 300 pounds, and even if she’s 372 pounds, you can still be happy.””
……
Hearing this, Hojo Kyosuke, who was about to start writing, paused, raised his head stiffly, and as expected, saw a pair of eyes full of resentment.
"Ha, ha ha, ha ha ha - no problem, I'll write it right away." He laughed dryly and didn't dare to read any more, for fear of being killed by this loyal book fan.
When promoting the new book, he left a suspense and used hunger marketing. He first released a high-quality prequel comic "Blood and Dreams of Corporate Animals" to make everyone believe in his sincerity, and then used a sequel comic as a random benefit to "seduce" readers to buy more and participate in the lottery.
"Happiness of Three Hundred and Seventy-Two"
At that time, his fans naively speculated whether this meant that the protagonist had to double the time to make up for the days he had spent numbly before, so a year became 372 days. Some people also speculated whether the protagonist spent 372 days to complete the creation of the novel...
In short, everyone guesses the number "372" based on time, after all, it is close to the number of days in a year.
When the novel was officially released, a crazy book fan bought 100 copies at one go. After drawing 110 times, he finally won the extra comic. He opened the comic with great anticipation without even reading the novel. Then he almost died from suffocation.
The first page showed the thin protagonist holding the hand of a woman who was three times as wide as him. No explanation was needed. The moment this crazy book fan saw the fat woman, he knew the meaning of three hundred and seventy-two.
At that time, the store clerk's shouts, the curious voices of the surrounding enthusiasts, the sound of traffic on the street, everything was silent, and the fan only heard one sentence: "This time, are you satisfied with my trick?"
At that time, Hojo Kyosuke's Twitter was overwhelmed. Fans and netizens who just wanted to join in the fun and bought the book all flocked in, frantically condemning him and questioning how he could have the heart to deceive his loyal fans like this.
In response, Hojo Kyosuke only sent a three-word reply:
"Does it look good?"
Does it look good?
Nonsense, of course it's good. If it wasn't, why would people just curse at it on Twitter? It's not like no one knows Hojo Sensei's home address and school.
Although the heroine is a bit fat, their daily life is so sweet. It's so sweet that the heroine's face, which can't see her eyes when she smiles, becomes extremely cute. Just kidding, when it comes to daydreaming, Eriri is definitely a professional. This comic, created by the efforts of two major cartoonists, is designed to attract book fans.
The heroine and the hero's mother-in-law form a sharp contrast with the three judges the hero encountered when he was competing for the award. The misery when competing for the award and the support and support for his 372-pound wife after marriage are sincere and sweet, which is really touching.
So the fans of the book cursed while reading, and they rolled on the ground and were frightened. The rolling on the ground was naturally because they were so sweet about the happy daily life of the male protagonist and his 372-pound wife, and the fright was because they were afraid that their aesthetic taste would be forcibly distorted by the comics of Hojo Sensei.
After all, they have gone from angrily cursing the heroine as a fat pig when they first saw her to saying "Oh, so cute", and the book fans themselves have no idea what she will become like in the future.
So one by one, everyone started leaving crazy messages to Hojo Kyosuke, asking him to draw a romance comic immediately to entertain everyone. The content didn't matter, but the heroine must be good-looking.
The money is already in his pocket, so why would Hojo Kyosuke care about these stupid things? Strictly speaking, he is also reforming society. In Japanese society, there are many obese girls who are bullied in school and quit school to hide at home, and finally commit suicide. If someone really awakens his true interest because of his comics and saves an obese girl, then wouldn't he have done a great deed?
If you think about it carefully, the two mystery novels written by Hojo Kyosuke since his debut, "The Devotion of Suspect X" focuses on women's marriage and economic problems, and "The Dream and Death of Writer K" focuses on the psychological and emotional problems of women with unbalanced weight.
This is totally enough to run for the title of "Friend of Women"!
It was not just Hojo Kyosuke who discovered this. Those strong women who used their female identity as a selling point and were active in all walks of life also discovered it. Kisaki received interview invitations from two female congressmen and dinner invitations from three female social activists, but Hojo Kyosuke declined them all.
The reason why Hojo Kyosuke wrote those things was not for fame, but simply to make money.
Back to the fan meeting next to the Kamogawa River, with the first person's reminder, the others who were also shocked by the 3,722 kilograms also became excited.
"Teacher Hojo! Do you also have a confidant who weighs 372 kilograms?"
"Absolutely not. I can testify to this. Although the food Kyousuke cooks is very, very delicious, it is nutritionally balanced and will definitely not cause obesity. Let me tell you, he has been dragging me running to exercise since the third grade~"
Yamauchi Sakura raised her hand and generously shared her story with Kyosuke. The expressions of the female fans twisted, and the male fans looked at the youthful, beautiful, energetic and cute Yamauchi Sakura, and then thought about the huge monster that made them feel that "as long as there is love, even if I weigh 372 pounds, it doesn't matter", and suddenly felt the darkness of society.
How dare you do this? How dare you! How could you bear it?
Looking at those inexplicable murderous gazes, in order to avoid killing these book fans himself, Hojo Kyosuke felt it necessary to explain:
"Well, most people don't live as they wish. Although writer K has gone through so much torture and still hasn't won an award, he has finally gotten rid of his numb past and embarked on the path of becoming a writer he always dreamed of. Similarly, although his wife looks different from ordinary people..."
"You know that person is not a normal person?" a boy interrupted loudly, and was immediately punched by a fat girl standing behind him.
"Ahem, I'm not trying to tell you that inner beauty is better than outer beauty, but I'm trying to tell you that people can't have everything they want. The protagonist has a wife who truly loves him, and a mother-in-law who can help him achieve his career. Isn't that good enough?"
Hojo Kyosuke spread his hands, and the fans continued to sign autographs while cursing.
"Eight out of ten people's lives are not as they wish..." Yamauchi Sakura whispered.
Behind the queue, a group of people holding various instruments were walking towards this side from the lower reaches of the Kamogawa River.
Kusaka Hero, maybe you are unfamiliar with this name, but he can be considered an acquaintance of Hojo Kyosuke. He was the first 32-tier celebrity who came out to ask "Are you satisfied with my trick this time?" He became famous in an unintentional way and his life has been so fast. He has received so many performance invitations and program notices that he came to Kyoto today to record a program at the invitation of a TV station.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him in front of the camera, and there was a long line in front of him for some unknown reason, Kusaka Hero suddenly became unhappy. What a joke, he is no longer the same person as before. If no one still pays attention to him, then he is just riding on the popularity of Hojo Sensei for nothing! Kusaka Hero agreed, but Hojo Sensei's fans did not agree!
Thanks to the big guys for their monthly tickets, recommendation tickets and reward support.
