Takaichi Kiyomoto, the principal of Kitayoshi High School, is an acquaintance with Higashinoji.

After all, this month, Higashinoji went to the principal's office whenever he had time, and came to help move things and copy some information...

At first, Takaichi Yoshimoto was quite resistant to Higashinoji's behavior, but later on, he got used to it.

I also started to take care of Higashinoji from time to time.

After all, in his opinion, Higashinoji is just a pure and scheming high school student, and he has also come from this age.

Looking at the other party's clean and pure face (just looking good), Takaichi Kishifeng acquiesced to such an uninvited guest coming to visit from time to time.

Within a few words, he served Higashiji a cup of tea, poured himself another cup, and then sat down with a teasing smile on his face:

"What's wrong with Higashino coming here this time? I've agreed in advance that I know your sister's situation, but the regulations are there, so I can't make this hole for you."

Before he could start speaking, the other party blocked the premise.

But Higashinoji was not annoyed, just laughed: "Look at what Principal Jifeng said, I am not that kind of person either. I came here for something else this time."

Of course, Higashinoji knew that Takaichi Yoshimoto would not agree to speak.

After all, he was empty-handed and could not convince the other party that he could have the ability to win the Tokyo Youth Painting Bounty, right?

"I hope to join the Art Department and hope Principal Jifeng can approve it."

There are ready-made painting boards and canvases in the Art Department of Kitayoshi. Apart from painting plates, paints, and oil brushes, the rest are not required to be paid for by Higashinoji.

Just use these tools, wait until you take down the golden reward and make your own request.

"You want to join the art department? Teacher Gangye is responsible for this matter. Can you just go to her to apply?"

etc--

Takaichi Kiyoshi suddenly realized, and he looked at Higashinoji: "Oh, Teacher Kane basically does not recruit art department staff from the headquarters. To enter the art department, you need a basic painting... No wonder you came to me."

The requirements for entering the Art Department of the Kitayoshi School are very strict, and entering through him is equivalent to walking through the back door.

Ji Feng Ryuichi smiled.

"It's true that I can't hide it from Principal Jifeng."

Higashinoji smiled embarrassedly.

Seeing his youthful and tender performance, Ji Feng Takaichi didn't think deeper.

It's not a big deal to join an art department.

He wrote a note, then took the seal, stamped it, and handed it to Higashinoji: "Just give this to Teacher Kono for a glance."

"Principal Jifeng, I will definitely give you a surprise."

"Hahaha." Ji Fenglong laughed.

He didn't care much about Higashinoji's words.

He is the principal of Kitayoshi School. What other surprises can Higashinoji surprise him?

There is no idea of ​​looking down on Higashinoji, but his status is here. Could it be that he still expects Higashinoji to cut off the Tokyo Youth Painting Bounty?

Higashinoji even had to go to his back door to enter the art department, so he didn't have a chance to think about it.

He waved his hand and started chatting with Higashinoji.

Of course, Higashinoji would not leave, after all, he would pat his butt and leave after asking the other party to help... This is not what human beings do.

Ji Fenglong felt quite comfortable.

After all, chatting with Higashinoji made him more pleasant.

The other party is very good at speaking and will respond. Unlike ordinary students, he often shares some interesting social news that he, the principal, has never heard of and seen.

The noon passed quickly during the chat.

There was nothing to say about the afternoon class, Higashinoji sat in his seat and just gangsters passed by.

He has always been a person who never forgets his teacher's kindness. He has returned the little things that the teacher taught him in his previous life long ago.

Letting him learn these things now is simply torture his consciousness.

Higashinoji didn't know how those old guys who had returned from time to time calmed down and studied hard, but he couldn't learn anyway.

Compared to studying this...

"Tungno wants to join the art department, right?"

Ryoko Kawano, the instructor of the Art Department of the Kitayoshi School, looked at the book documents with Principal Yoshimoto's seal in his hand, while looking at Higashinoji in front of him.

Her attitude is not particularly friendly or alienated, but she is just her attitude towards ordinary students.

"Please make sure to let me join the art department."

Higashinoji said in a sure tone.

"Well, this is not difficult, but the department work of the Kitayoshi Arts Department is very strict, and it will be different from fellow friends. Are you sure you can keep up with Higashino classmate?"

After Kawano Ryoko confirmed that it was Takaichi Yoshimoto's seal, her attitude improved a lot, and she asked.

"子子" is the abbreviation for campus "club activities" in Japanese, and it originated from the Japanese campus group activities during the Meiji era.

The "job activity" of the Japanese ministry is to achieve results in a certain aspect, so the rules within the ministry are very strict.

This is how the art department work in Kitayoshi School is.

Attend to painting at least four times a week, and no absence is allowed without special circumstances.

Moreover, after the "ministerial work" is over, a summary report needs to be written. This summary report is very troublesome and many students from the ministry are unwilling to write it.

But every once in a while, you have to submit it to the school, so there is nothing you can do.

After all, if the school’s venue and the club funds allocated by the school have to bear the corresponding obligations.

"I try to keep up."

Higashinoji nodded with a smile.

He just likes the artboards, canvases and open venues of the Art Department, so he is too lazy to care about these miscellaneous things.

Hearing Higashinoji's promise, Ryoko Kaneno didn't say anything more.

She took out the spare key from the art department from the drawer and handed it to Higashinoji. After a few instructions, she lowered her head and continued to work on her own affairs.

Of course, Higashinoji, who got the key, did not continue to stay here. He thanked him, and then walked away from the teaching building and headed to the club activity building.

The art department is located on the third floor of the studio. Higashinoji didn't think much about it and walked into it directly.

As soon as he entered the studio, a smell of oil paint and turpentine oil rushed into his nose.

But not only did he not feel pungent, but he also had an inexplicable sense of nostalgia.

He used to have a studio, but now he's gone, and after some spare money, he still has to set up a studio.

As soon as Higashinoji entered the studio, he saw a group of little girls surrounding a girl with long hair.

From time to time, he also made a few exclamations of "How did this draw?" "Senior is so amazing!"

Japanese high school studios have always been full of yin and yang. After all, Japanese male high school students who have pursuits are busy pursuing Japanese tablet girls, so if they don’t help, they will study.

Then when will you participate in an art club that sits for an afternoon?

Higashinoji does not have the habit of asking seniors for advice when entering the door like ordinary Japanese.

He glanced at the girl surrounding him, came in and then looked around.

There are several oak easels with pigments on the edges in the corner of the studio, and several painting boards with mottled pigments on the surface are placed next to them.

This is true for painting boards that have been used for a long time. The paint will penetrate the paper surface of the painting and penetrate into the painting board. Over time, marks will be left on the surface of the painting board.

Apart from these, there are easels, buckets and small stools that seem messy but are actually placed around in an orderly manner.

Nowadays, students from the Art Department of the Kitayo School are preparing for the Tokyo Youth Awards, and many people have half of their oil paintings.

The girl in the middle of the crowd is probably the best painting skills among these girls, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people around her.

But this has nothing to do with Higashinoji-

In the past, he was a professional painter who made a living by painting. With his eyes on the paintings of these high school students...

How to say...

He didn't want to say it too straightforwardly, so he just found a word to describe it.

Rubbish.
