Chapter 500: The Grievances of Natural Things
"It would be great if our Michiru could be as obedient and studious as Ryota-kun."
Mrs. Bingtang, who was sitting on the sofa, held her nephew's hand and sighed sincerely, while Mr. Bingtang, whose complexion had improved a lot, nodded in agreement.
Michiru Hyodo held her feet with her hands, her eyes fluttering as if she hadn't heard anything. She looked up at the ceiling, her body banging against the chair.
The girl had heard such words countless times since she was a child. She couldn't say that she had gotten used to it, but she could only say that her heart was as calm as still water.
If it was any other cousin, she could have resisted by saying something like, "I'm not good at studying, but I'm good at sports." But this time, the "other person's child" is Ryota Tsuchiya, and it would be too hurtful to use sports as an excuse.
After all, in addition to the hard-to-describe "our Michiru", the "stone boy of the Tsuchiya family" is also hard to describe...
"If Ryouta had used the energy he wasted on baseball to study, he might have won the Nobel Prize a long time ago." This kind of saying also spread among the Hyodo family and the Tsuchiya family. Of course, it was a joke at every family gathering.
Based on this, Hyodo Michiru actually has a good relationship with her cousin Ryota Tsuchiya, who shares the same suffering. After all, although her parents always use Ryota to criticize her, in fact, as long as she can show her sports performance, she can make Ryota's world fall into black and white. So to some extent, when the girl heard her parents say that, she felt a little proud.
Thinking of this, Michiru's mood suddenly improved a lot, and she actually took the initiative to join in the conversation.
She jerked her body forward, using her thighs, which were muscular from playing basketball, to push the two legs in front of the stool back to the ground. She leaned forward and asked with great interest:
"By the way, Ryota-kun, how come you have time to come here today?"
Hearing this, Mr. Hyodou, who was about to scold his daughter for her jumpy behavior, shut up and looked at his nephew expectantly. Not only him, but everyone else also looked at Tsuchiya Ryota.
Although the nephew had changed from school uniform to casual clothes, considering the commuting time, it was obvious that he rushed to the Hyodo family as soon as he got home from school with his gifts. Such strong family affection was rare even in the Hyodo family, where it was customary for children to spend time with their cousins in their hometown. It was really touching.
Although he had already made a plan in his mind, Ryota Tsuchiya, who was originally full of sense of responsibility and family affection, suddenly felt guilty when he was stared at by the four "Hyoudo".
I, I don't want to put my cousin in the baseball team for Hojo-kun's sexual happiness! I'm here to resolve the conflict between my aunt and uncle and my cousin!
He shouted twice in his heart, reaffirming the justice of his actions.
Yes! This visit does not contain any personal interests, but is entirely for the purpose of fulfilling the family relationship between cousins. In the modern society where people are becoming increasingly indifferent to each other, the conflicts within the family have become irreconcilable, and the relatives who should have acted as mediators at this moment are also becoming increasingly distant. I, Ryota Tsuchiya, will never turn a blind eye to this situation!
Turning a blind eye is the greatest sin in the world!
That’s right, my heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is just.
Show the same courage you used to convince the school board to build a bathhouse for the baseball team!
After hypnotizing himself, Tsuchiya Ryota smiled slightly, facing the gazes of his cousin and the other three "Hyoudou", he cleared his throat and spoke loudly:
"Actually, I came..."
Ding-dong-
The doorbell rang at an inopportune time. Ryota Tsuchiya frowned in annoyance, and the Hyodo couple had the same expression.
"Is anyone coming tonight?" Hyodo Xingren asked unhappily. He thought about it and couldn't think of anyone else except his nephew Ryota Tsuchiya who said they would come to his house tonight.
"Maybe an administrator?"
Mrs. Hyodo said as she walked towards the door.
"Impossible, the administrator wouldn't be so rude."
Mr. Hyodo denied it outright. He lived in a high-end tower building. Even if it was an ordinary apartment, the administrator would make an appointment in advance. Didn't you see that even his nephew had to make an appointment half a day in advance to visit? There was no such thing as a Japanese person who suddenly visited without an appointment.
"Ah, it's Tomoya-kun, yeah, yeah, I get it."
Mrs. Bingtang said a few words to the video doorbell, then turned around with a smile on her face and was about to explain to her husband. But before she could say anything, the beautiful girl with short purple hair stood up and ran over, lying in front of the black screen and staring at it non-stop.
"Is it Xiaolun?"
Michiru Hyodo asked excitedly, her attitude was much more enthusiastic than when she saw Ryota Tsuchiya coming.
Such a sharp contrast caused Tsuchiya Ryota and the Hyodo couple's expressions to change subtly. Although it was normal for cousins to have some close and some distant relationships, it was very embarrassing to show it so obviously.
"Ryunya? Is he the one from Uncle Hyodo's sister's family?" Ryota Tsuchiya asked. Although he was a relative from his uncle's side, he still knew him barely.
"Ryota, you actually still remember Tomoya. Oh, by the way, when you were a child, you would also go to Nagano's hometown to play during the New Year. That was when you met Tomoya, right?"
The nephew's thoughtful words of relief made the pedestrians in Bingtang smile comfortably.
"Yes, the red bean cakes made by grandma are delicious. Every time during the Chinese New Year, when I eat cold food, I will think of the hot red bean paste."
Ryota Tsuchiya said with a smile that there was no awkwardness or tension when talking with the elders, and his expression was sincere and touching when he missed the old people, which completely met the standards of other children.
As expected, Hyodo Kotobuki's expression became more and more joyful, and he started talking again, "It would be great if our Michiru could be as obedient and studious as Ryota-kun." The pretty girl who was happy about the arrival of her savior raised her eyebrows when she heard this.
Upon hearing this, Ryota Tsuchiya simply smiled a humble smile that met international standards. He knew that if he dared to show off a little, his cousin would stamp his forehead with the trophy of her county competition.
However, the Hyodo couple noticed something from their daughter's expression, so Mr. Hyodo asked:
"Michiru, you were the one who called Ren here too?"
His daughter was always looking for excuses, so he had to deal with her early. But Amaki Tomoya? Why did his daughter think Tomoya could help her with this matter?
"Yes, even a death row inmate has the right to hire a defense lawyer. How could I just sit there and wait to die?" Michiru Hyodo admitted it very simply. If she hadn't been stopped by her parents in advance, she would have run away from home and gone to Tomoya's house.
As she spoke, she glanced at her aunt with pity and anger at her aunt's lack of resistance. If she hadn't been a little tougher, she wouldn't have had to resort to such a desperate measure.
Hyodo Tsunemi's eyelids fluttered, and he began to rock his chair back and forth with a clanging movement, in exactly the same posture as Hyodo Michiru before.
The Bingtang couple felt overwhelmed when they saw this scene. For a moment, they actually thought that it was a good thing for their sister to go to Johannesburg. Now she was going alone. If their daughter continued to hang out with her, they might run to Venezuela together.
Shaking his head, Mr. Hyodo turned to look at his nephew, Ryota Tsuchiya, and felt fortunate to have such a considerate and sensible relative. He also looked forward to the arrival of his nephew, Tomoya Amaki, even though he was his daughter's rescuer. But he was also "someone else's child".
Soon the doorbell rang, and when the door opened, a boy in a black school uniform and black-framed glasses appeared.
It was the usual small talk. Although he was a otaku, in order to avoid trouble, Aki Tomoya was still good at perfunctory relatives. As long as he said a few simple "hmm", both uncle and grandma would lose interest in him, and then he could happily browse his phone.
"Xiao Lun!!"
Michiru Hyodo cheered and was about to rush over to hug her cousin, but before she could take two steps, she was hugged by her mother.
Mrs. Bingtang felt her temples throbbing:
"Michiru! You're already in high school, so be aware of your identity as a girl!"
"What's the matter? We are cousins." Michiru pouted and sat back in her chair angrily.
After changing into slippers at the entrance and walking into the living room, Aki Tomoya looked at the crowded living room and suddenly felt his scalp tingling and wanted to run away.
"Hey, you didn't tell me there were so many people at home. Didn't you say you had something to talk to me about? If it's not urgent, I'll come tomorrow." He leaned close to his cousin and whispered, saying he would come tomorrow but in fact he would definitely not come tomorrow. This scene was obviously not something an old man could handle.
"Ah? Please, Xiaolun, I have high hopes for you, my family man!"
Hyodo Michiru put her hands together and whispered in a bold voice. This made Aki Tomoya realize how rude it was for him to whisper in front of so many people, so his expression was very bright.
"What the hell is Family-kun? I've never heard of such a creature in the world. After all, we are just cousins who are not that close and live an hour away by train!"
Under the unfriendly gaze of Uncle Hyodo, Tomoya Aki had no choice but to draw a line between himself and his cousin in the most resolute manner. After saying that, he immediately ran to the person who looked most suitable for an alliance, the boy on the sofa who was wearing a decent suit.
"That's really hurtful, Xiaolun. I used to wipe your back when we were little." Michiru Hyodo said in a sad tone as if she was talking to a heartless man.
"I beg you not to say things that would cause misunderstanding. When I was a child, my grandma would help me wipe my back when I took a bath!" Aki Tomoya shouted.
"Haha, Michiru was just talking nonsense, you all know what I mean," he explained while looking at the boy next to him.
"Well, I understand. I think I took a bath with you when I was a child." Ryota Tsuchiya said with a smile.
"Ok?"
Hearing this, Aki Tomoya's otaku brain worked rapidly, and half a minute later he spoke:
“Um, please…?”
"Ryota Tsuchiya, my mother is Aunt Hyodo's sister." Ryota Tsuchiya kept smiling.
"Oh, I remember it!" No way, I have no impression of it at all.
Aki Tomoya showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face. It was not very realistic, but everyone could see that it was just a polite gesture:
"My mother is Uncle Bingtang's sister." He also introduced himself.
"Yeah, I know, it's Tomoya Aki."
Seeing that everyone was present, Bingtang Xingren brought up the previous topic again.
"Ryota, you said before..."
Tsuchiya Ryota straightened up and continued to smile:
"Ah, well, I heard from my mom about Michiru's band, so..."
"Band? Michiru, you haven't given up yet?"
Aki Tomoya suddenly interrupted.
Um? ?
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the Hyodo couple and Tsuchiya Ryota looked a little strange.
"Wait, Tomoya, have you known for a long time that Michi stayed in the band?" asked Hyodo Xingren.
"Ah? It wasn't that early. I heard about it in the fall of my first year in high school. Didn't Michiru just give up basketball at that time?" Aki Tomoya said naturally.
The autumn of my freshman year? Now it is the spring of my sophomore year.
It wasn’t that early, only half a year. I was only at the stage where I could perform at school festivals and was asked if I wanted to try performing at live houses. I was only at the stage where I wanted to develop further and asked my parents for help…
It’s not too early to tell your parents at this time!!
The look in the eyes of the Hyodo couple when they looked at their daughter became even more strange. Hyodo Tsunemi, who was standing nearby, tried hard to block herself with the vase on the table.
"Wait, wait a minute...why did the atmosphere suddenly become so suffocating!?"
Aki Tomoya screamed in shock. Even though he was not very good at reading the air, this was already the level where even a blind man could smell the danger.
"What happened? I was just passing by!"
Hearing this, and combining it with the news he heard from his mother, Ryota Tsuchiya's smile became playful.
"Michiru...tell your two cousins the whole story from beginning to end." Mrs. Hyodo said in a deep voice.
The beautiful girl with short purple hair pursed her lips, looking very reluctant. Although she didn't think there was anything embarrassing about it, she always felt that she had done something very bad in this situation.
"Well, last fall I joined a band at school, playing guitar and also serving as the lead singer."
Under her father's gaze, Michiru Hyodo spoke honestly.
"I always feel that you say something very extraordinary in a casual way." An Yilun also complained without tact.
"Yeah, she joined halfway and became the lead singer. If I remember correctly, Michiru, you have never been exposed to music-related stuff, right?" Tsuchiya Ryota also agreed.
The two cousins looked at each other and saw that they shared the same pain, which was the pain of being ordinary.
"Then at the school festival last week, our band "Icy Tail" performed on stage. The atmosphere was really great, and everyone in the school called it the legendary STAGE (stage)!"
The cute girl who was reluctant a second ago now immediately became excited when talking about her favorite things.
"So not only did you quickly become the lead singer, you also named the band after you? And you even gave a wonderful performance at the school festival?"
Tsuchiya Ryota was extremely surprised. Before this, he only knew that his cousin had fallen out with her family because of her band. Now that he heard the details, he was even more amazed at her talent. But it seemed that his aunt and uncle didn't know it earlier than him.
"This is a genius." Amaki Tomoya also exclaimed.
Hearing what their two nephews said, Bingtang and his wife couldn't help showing a proud expression on their faces, but they soon frowned again.
"I have asked the student affairs office for the video, and I can show it to you later. But when it comes to band performances, the live effect is always the best!"
The cute girl with short purple hair was full of energy. If she hadn't had a bit of rationality, she would have started playing the disc right now. But even so, her domineering figure was still full of life, which made Mrs. Bingtang frown and quickly took a shawl to cover her daughter.
“Also, there were people associated with the live house who saw our performance and asked us if we wanted to give it a try.”
It's exaggerated. Others pay to find a stage to perform on, but for my cousin, she was actively invited by the live house because of her performance at the school festival.
Ryota Tsuchiya was amazed, and at the same time felt more and more that he had made the right decision.
Michiru shouldn't be performing on such an inconspicuous underground stage. She should bring her talent to the Sobu High School baseball club and play the victory melody after Hojo-kun hits a home run!
"So, I thought if I were to concentrate on doing this, I would have to incur some necessary expenses, so I tried to ask my parents for help..."
Hyodo Michiru continued.
"Yeah, it's true that if you decide to perform in a live house, the expenses will be quite high. Not to mention the basic transportation, food and accommodation expenses, stage costumes, makeup, renting musical instruments, agency fees, etc., any of which are not affordable for ordinary high school students."
Aki Tomoya nodded repeatedly. Even he could only go to a live house once a month while working three jobs. Of course, he went there to support his idol, just to spend money.
When Michiru Hyodo heard the words of her reinforcement, her eyes immediately lit up and she thought that she had made the right decision to ask Tomoya for help.
"That's right, but my dad got mad at me and said, 'I've never heard of such a thing.' But it's true. This is the first time I've told them that."
She even complained to her cousins.
Aki Tomoya, who was nodding his head repeatedly, suddenly felt a sharp pain on his face. He carefully looked around with the corner of his eyes. Sure enough, Uncle and Aunt Hyodo were looking at him with unfriendly eyes, so he quickly shouted:
"You should have told me in advance! You should have told me when we first started playing in a band!"
“Pfft~~Hahahaha~~”
An inappropriate laugh broke out, and everyone's eyes instantly focused on the lower left corner of the dining table.
"Don't worry about me, I just suddenly thought of something happy." After saying this, Hyodo Tsunemi quickly turned around and began to reflect on her mistakes. However, the last look she gave to Aki Tomoya with a smile made everyone look at Aki Tomoya.
Yes, you were the first one present to know about it. How dare you say such a thing?
Gollum—
Aki Tomoya swallowed his saliva, feeling that Uncle Hyodo's gaze had escalated from unfriendly to the point of looking at someone dead.
"that……"
But before he could explain, Bingtang Xingren shook his head and looked at his other nephew.
"That's the thing. Live house, is that a place for decent people to go?" The old father's tone was full of worry and helplessness.
Even if my daughter is a loser who is bad at studying and only gets bored after a short while no matter what she does, it doesn’t matter. At least she is adorable and safe. Looking at her every day makes me feel warm in my heart and I feel that the world is a beautiful place.
But now he is heading down the evil path. He is not going to be a waste, but a spellcasting material.
"Well, it's true. No parent would feel comfortable letting a girl go to a live venue alone." Tsuchiya Ryota nodded knowingly.
He is worthy of being my good nephew, Bingtang Xingren nodded with satisfaction.
"Yeah, I know. Rock 'n' roll is all about drugs and sex."
Aki Tomoya pushed his glasses. He must emphasize that the live houses he went to were all filled with cute 2D underground idols, who had nothing to do with rock music. They were pure and beautiful, and they didn't take drugs or have sex. At most, they sold handshake tickets, hug tickets, date tickets, etc. as fan benefits. They were the kind of idols who cared about their fans wholeheartedly and were of the highest quality.
Although his performance just now was a little poor, he is still my good nephew, Bingtang Xingren nodded with satisfaction again.
"Hey, Xiaolun, aren't you too prejudiced? And you have a complete double standard. You don't say a word about otaku?" Michiru Hyodo protested.
"Um, well..."
"Michiru!"
Mr. Hyodo shouted in a deep voice, "Old wallet, no," The majesty that the old father had accumulated for a long time made Michiru sit up straight immediately, and even took her feet off the chair, and her white and cute little feet stepped into the cotton slippers obediently.
"You've heard what your two cousins said. It's not that mom and dad are too strict with you or restrict you in everything, but this matter is really too outrageous. You..."
"But!" Michiru was anxious and wanted to speak.
"Michiru! I don't remember teaching you to interrupt when your elders are talking!" Mr. Hyodo said sternly.
"Yes, I'm sorry..."
The cute short-haired girl pouted, and the two slightly longer strands of hair hanging by her ears curled up meekly.
"Whether you wanted to dance ballet, act in a play, or play basketball, your mother and I did our best to satisfy you. We helped you contact professional trainers, signed you up for competitions, picked you up, and gave you condolences..."
How could I repair it? Last time I wanted to take my dad's car to a book signing event, he told me to get lost. Aki Tomoya was envious when he heard this.
"Every time I see the sweat running down your forehead and arms during practice, your mother and I are very happy, thinking that Michiru should have found what she really wants to do this time. Every time I see your happy smile when you stand on the podium and cheer in unison with your teammates, your mother and I are even happier than you, thinking that Michiru should be able to persevere this time."
Mr. Hyodo said, his voice seemed to have a hint of fatigue. Mrs. Hyodo's face was expressionless, Tsuchiya Ryota lowered his head, and the liveliness on Hyodo Michiru's face seemed to have faded a lot.
The shaping of personality is inseparable from family, so a lively girl naturally cannot be cultivated in a repressive and restrained family. As a beautiful girl born from the 500-year essence of the Hyodo family and the Tsuchiya family, Hyodo Michiru is also absolutely loved by both families.
How could she not know that her parents cared about her? Didn't she choose to go to her aunt's house every time she ran away from home? Like this time when her aunt was arrested early, she just stayed at home and was scolded.
but……
How can I fix it! Why did my parents criticize me so harshly after hearing that I went to the office every day to report to the school for the animation screening during the school anniversary, and even went so far as to initiate a righteous conflict with the Dean of Academic Affairs? Aki Tomoya was envious and jealous when he heard this.
"But every time you gave up so suddenly, before your mother and I could even recover from the joy of your honor, we found that our baby had become a bad girl with nothing to do again."
At this point, Bingtang Xingren gave a helpless smile. He was worried if his daughter was not lively enough, and he was also worried if his daughter was too lively, so parents are here to pay off their debts.
"Your mother always told me that it's okay, Michiru just hasn't found what she wants to do yet. I think, yes, Michiru will eventually find what she really wants to do."
The old father's tone was a little higher, with an open mind. Yes, even if his daughter is eighty years old and still hasn't married, and hasn't found what she really wants to do, he can afford to support her with the family property of the Hyodo family. It doesn't matter, as long as Michiru is happy.
Mr. Hyodo's words moved Tsuchiya Ryota deeply. He felt that he would never hear such words from his father in his life. That arrogant man would never say such cheesy words to his son. At most, when he found out that he had secretly given away his treasured wine collection during the New Year, he would say, "Ryota, you know, I usually don't get angry with you, but..."
So a father who raises a daughter and a father who raises a son are two completely different species.
Thinking of this, Ryota Tsuchiya's firm belief began to waver.
If things really go as smoothly as he imagined, his cousin Michiru will really become Hojo's exclusive guitar, ahem, exclusive band. In short, his cousin really falls in love with Hojo.
It's not that Hojo-kun is bad. As a man, he is simply the embodiment of perfection. Tsuchiya Ryota believes that no woman can resist Hojo-kun's charm. Being fickle is not worth mentioning at all... Can a man's fickleness be called fickle? Only weak men are fickle, and strong men are called philanthropists, right?
But, if that day really comes and my uncle knows that I was the one who pushed this matter...
Ryota Tsuchiya is not a timid person. He is always the first one to go to the baseball field!
But the fatherly love in Uncle Bingtang’s words just now was so heavy that he was so scared... his own father probably wouldn’t save him, right?
How can it be fixed!! Isn't it normal for a new anime to have one more wife? This is an affirmation of the work, why does it become that I can't even concentrate on watching anime with my mother?! Aki Tomoya was envious when he heard this.
Even her cousin Tsuchiya Ryota was moved. As her father's little cotton-padded jacket, how could Hyodo Michiru remain indifferent? Hearing her father's softening tone, she quickly spoke:
"But! This time I really found what I want to do. When I heard the music, I was like I was hypnotized. I couldn't help but walk to the classroom where they practiced when they were little, and begged them to play it for me again. Really, this time I found something I really like to do!"
In her anxiety, Michiru Hyodo's speech was a little confused, which made her even more anxious. The two long bangs beside her ears swung back and forth. If she hadn't had a guitar at hand, she would have wanted to sing a song to express her feelings.
"Oh, right! I've been in the band for a year this time! Longer than any other time!" She seemed to have found strong evidence.
One year...because it's the New Year, it becomes one year?
Mr. Bingtang thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He just smiled at his daughter's face and said in a surprisingly calm voice:
"Whether you really like it and want to keep going, or it's just an illusion before giving up, it doesn't matter. Michiru, you're still young, there's no need to rush this kind of thing."
He says this now, he said this before, and he will say this in the future when his daughter gives up again.
Michiru pursed her lips and said nothing. As a girl who was well-known (among her relatives), she knew that her words were not convincing. In fact, even she herself was not sure if she could really stick to it this time. After all, whether it was ballet or basketball, she was really happy at the beginning, and it was no worse than the band. Why did she give up? She couldn't explain it.
Now, when I say those words, it's more like I'm acting cute to my dad. The effect is also very obvious. Dad's attitude has obviously softened. The next step is to agree, right? Agree to perform in the live house.
Seeing his daughter's appearance, Mr. Bingtang's expression remained unchanged, and he just continued to speak calmly:
"The only thing I can do is to ensure your safety and to ensure that you can calmly make choices in the future. So, I don't agree. I won't allow you to go to a place like a live house alone."
Mr. Hyodo's gentle smile was accompanied by a tone that left no room for doubt.
"But I have teammates. Xiaoshi, Xiaolan, Rui Zhijia, they are all very good people."
Michiru Hyodo said in a low voice. She suddenly realized that it was not her father's attitude that had softened, but that she was about to be convinced.
But no, this is not just my dream. Being able to stand on such a stage is everyone's common dream. Or rather, my dreams are all borrowed from Xiaolan and the others when I was little.
I forced myself to join the band, and they accepted me without any hesitation. After everyone's efforts, they finally saw results, but now because of me, the band can no longer carry out activities and is even in danger of disbanding.
This kind of thing... How can this kind of thing be allowed!
"I promise, I will protect myself. You know, Xiaolun has never been able to beat me since they were young. With his ability, I can beat two at once!"
Michiru Hyodo raised her arms and posed like Popeye. Her biceps were obviously bulging, just like her muscular legs. She was a very toned young girl.
"Protect……"
Mr. Bingtang smiled bitterly and shook his head, then turned to look at his two nephews and asked:
"What do you two think?"
"Well, actually, as long as you carefully screen the organizers of the livehouse, the danger can be greatly reduced. As long as you pay more attention to the remaining parts, there shouldn't be any problem." Aki Tomoya said. In fact, what he wanted to say was that Japan's underground idols already have a mature industrial chain. Unlike those who play rock music, as long as they wear cute cat-ear girl costumes, it is impossible for them to encounter bad guys.
Mmmmmmm!
Michiru Hyodo nodded, thinking that asking Ren to come today was the wisest thing she had done.
"filter……"
Mr. Hyodo shook his head again and looked to the other side.
While listening to Tomoya Aki speaking, Ryota Tsuchiya had his mouth wide open in surprise.
Looking at his cousin's innocent smile, her fullness that couldn't be covered by a loose T-shirt, and her voluptuous long legs under her hot pants, he considered for a moment and said:
"Michiru, your teammates are all girls, right?"
"Yes, I go to a girls' school so of course I'm a girl." Michiru said as a matter of course, and was very surprised why her cousin asked such a simple question.
Looking at the natural objects in front of him, Ryota Tsuchiya also understood the concerns of his uncle and aunt. His cousin had been raised in a girls' school since she was a child, and she had very little understanding of men, such a terrible creature.
"The difference between going to a live venue alone and going to a live venue with three girls is just the difference between having shrimp on a pizza or having shrimp, ham and salted egg yolk on a pizza," he continued.
"Eh? Salted egg yolk and ham don't go together. Which pizza would use such a weird combination?"
Aki Tomoya complained that if salted egg yolk is present, the aroma of ham will be completely taken over. Both are the main flavors and it is absolutely impossible for them to appear together. This is common sense that anyone who has worked in a pizza shop knows. For him, who has worked in three different brands of pizza shops for more than three months, it is knowledge that is engraved in his bones.
"..."X4
The air suddenly stagnated. Not only Ryota Tsuchiya who was speaking, but even Hyodo Tsunemi who had been facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes turned around and looked at Aki Tomoya in silence. There was no need to say more about the other three "Hyodo".
"Well, Amai, I don't think that's the point of what Ryota-kun said." Michiru Hyodo said hesitantly.
"It's not that, it's what it is. Most people would be very concerned about that, right? Salted egg yolk and ham or something..."
As Aki Tomoya spoke, his voice became lowered, because Uncle Hyoto's look of looking at him dead came back. He suspected that if he continued to talk, his father would call Hyoto's house in the evening to ask if he had returned home, and Uncle Hyoto's answer would be that he had returned home a long time ago.
"…normal people would definitely think of eating pizza when they hear it. The only difference between one high school girl and four high school girls going to a live venue is that the latter is more tempting and the impulse to commit crimes is greater."
Ryota Tsuchiya simply said it directly, after all, this was the purpose of his visit.
Mr. Hyodo nodded in agreement, he thought so too, his daughter having a few more companions would only mean a few more crying families when something happened.
Michiru Hyodou turned to look at her aunt, but saw no support.
"When I went to Johannesburg, I stayed in the company dormitory. I had already familiarized myself with the slums and chaotic areas in advance. If I wasn't with reliable colleagues, I wouldn't even go to an unfamiliar bar, and of course I wouldn't get drunk," said Tsunemi Hyodo.
"You still want to go to the bar?!" Bingtang Pedestrian raised his eyebrows.
"Brother! I'm almost thirty!"
"If you're not married, you're just a child!"
"..."
Michiru Hyodo remained silent. She knew that even her aunt, who had always understood her, agreed that going live was a very dangerous thing.
She could understand her father's concerns because she was now also beginning to worry about the safety of her companions.
When I was little, Xiaolan and Rui Zhijia were so cute that even the girls in school liked them, not to mention the boys. Even when the school held a live show, the students under the stage were so enthusiastic. If you go to a livehouse... not to mention the organizers who may have bad intentions, perverted fans, etc...
She wasn't really an idiot, she just thought that if she was more careful, she might be able to avoid it.
But now even Brother Liang and Auntie said so...
"No, is it really that dangerous? Why haven't I encountered anything after going there so many times?"
Aki Tomoya was stunned, but he still wanted to defend his idol, saying that the only ones who were confused were rock musicians, and it had nothing to do with the two-dimensional world!
The other people in the living room now have some understanding of what kind of person Aki Tomoya is, so when they heard her words, they didn't even look at her, but just looked at Hyodo Michiru, wanting to hear what she was thinking.
Only Michiru Hyodo looked at Tomoya Aki with emotion.
Xiaolun hasn't given up yet and is still speaking for me.
She could only respond with an apologetic look.
"I understand. I will talk to the kids. At least let us play in school, okay?"
The cute short-haired girl is still making her last effort, at least not to let herself disband the band! The big breasts that were always jumping around are unable to jump, and they are quiet like a quiet beauty.
She was very scared, fearing that her father would ask her to quit the band in order to prevent her from secretly going to the livehouse.
"no!"
"That's not necessary."
The one who shouted anxiously was Ryota Tsuchiya, and the one who spoke calmly was Mr. Hyodo.
The former is really anxious. Although everyone is happy and the crisis of the Hyodo family is resolved, he is not really here to mediate family conflicts. He is here to kidnap... He is here to ask his cousin Michiru to bring her talent to the Sobu High School baseball club! You can't go to the livehouse, but you can go to Sobu High School! The dozens of strong guys in the baseball club are all bodyguards. Let alone a drum set, they can carry the instruments of an entire symphony orchestra for you.
If that doesn't work, there's still the Kendo Club, and there's also Hojo-kun! Hojo-kun is the devil of Tokyo, with him leading you, there's no danger even if there are a hundred times more perverts in the livehouse.
No, there was no such thing as going to livehouses at that time. I went to Hanshin Koshien and Tokyo Budokan with Hojo-kun. Those were places where only national superstars could perform!
"Ryota?"
"Ryota-san?"
Both Bingtang and his daughter cast doubtful looks at this cousin. You are the one who keeps persuading people not to go to the livehouse. You are also the one who says it is not possible. What does that mean? Are you here to mediate or just to watch the fun?
Provoked by a few looks, Tsuchiya Ryota almost said that he was here to add bricks and tiles to Hojo-kun's harem. Fortunately, he was a well-trained ninja, and he was used to speaking with hand seals, so his mouth was half a beat slower.
If someone familiar with the secret code of the Sobu High School baseball team was here, they would be able to read the following message from the seals that Ryota Tsuchiya placed on his knees like a crazy chicken claw:
Hojo-kun, home run, I want them all!
Thanks to the big guys for their monthly tickets, recommendation tickets and reward support, thank you.
I am indeed a man who keeps his word.
