Chapter 146 Protecting Weaknesses
Although the Kita District where Eriri's family is located and Chiyoda where Akihabara is located can be said to be one north and one south, the straight line is only about six kilometers, and it only takes 14 minutes to reach along National Highway 17.
So, although there are 23 districts, Tokyo is actually really small, so Maki Kyosuke and his friends are "cross-provincial" when they have a ride at night.
After parking the motorcycle at the parking point, Hojo Keisuke got out of the car first and stretched out his arm to let Eriri help him down.
"So it turns out that Akihara is so lively so early?" Looking at the crowd in front of him, Hojo Kyosuke felt afraid of difficulties. He didn't want to be wrinkled in his new clothes when he went out for the first time.
"Hahaha, this is the holy place of the Otaku clan."
Beside him, Yingliri's proud voice sounded. Turning around, he finally understood why Yingliri was not wearing a three-piece camouflage set.
The girl had put on the huge hat of her coat at this moment, her golden hair was completely hidden, and even her smooth forehead was covered, and her delicate little nose only showed a little tip.
"Yingli Li, can you still see the road?" While admiring Yingli Li's disguise skills, he expressed his concerns.
"Idiot, isn't it your mission to open the way?" Yingliri raised her head and scolded.
Although, even if you raise your face, I can't see your eyes at all. Hojo Kyosuke casually said yes and yes, and then took the lead in walking into the crowd.
Unlike the last time I came, Hojo Kyosuke, who had already entered the circle, easily opened the crowd in front of him while looking at the street full of wallets. No, it was full of Ah Zai.
Even if the buildings on both sides are covered with advertisements and posters, you can still see that they are already very old. The layout of the street is not the popular shopping street style nowadays. However, there are also some new buildings mixed in, and there are also cartoon pictorials on it from top to bottom. Some are so huge that they occupy half of the size of the building, which looks like a chaotic beauty.
"How is it, isn't it shocking?" Behind Hojo Kyosuke, Eri, who had no previous experience in Akihabara, automatically entered the role of the tour guide.
"Indeed, it's hard to imagine why a street selling electrical appliances would become like this, so is the way the technology home changed the world?"
"Hahaha, what are you talking about? Even now, it is still an electrical street. Basically, you can find any kind of electrical appliances here." The girl was amused in an instant.
"Is the one in the corner of the wall there a gasket machine?" If you want to say that Akihabara can compare with Azai, it may be the gasket machine. As long as there is free corner outside the store, you can basically see that thing, and the three layers of the upper, middle and lower are piled tightly.
"Yes, yes, how about it? You want to go and have a look? The store's gilder often has limited edition goodies."
Speaking of this, the girl suddenly jumped out from behind Hojo Kyosuke and grabbed his sleeve. It seemed that as long as the latter agreed, she would burst out all the strength to knock everyone in front of her and take him to the front of the glider machine.
Hey, Yinglili, do you know that you look like a fool who can't wait to give the money in his pocket to the casino owner?
Of course, Hojo Keisuke knew what the gating machine was. The blind box that was popular in the country next door in his previous life was a variant of this thing. Simply put, it is to use randomness, rarity, and winning psychology, so that cheap products can be successfully made.
"I don't care if I'm not in a hurry to buy comics." Looking at the girl who was eager to try, he did not refuse.
"Um..." Looking at the person surrounding the glider machine, then looking at the Guji Guji Bookstore in front of him. Yingliri made a decision after only half a minute.
"Let's buy comics first. After all, if you don't have my reply letter, your comics may be cut in half."
As if helpless, Eriri shook her head and sighed, then hid behind Hojo Kyosuke again, stretched out her hands and pushed him forward.
"Haha, thank you very much for Teacher Eriri." After a smile, Hojo Kyosuke walked forward obediently.
The reply can also be understood as a questionnaire, which is the thing used by "Weekly Boy High" to determine the fate of the comics.
The bookstore where the two met was still as lively as ever. Fortunately, everyone is more skilled and they checked out and left after a simple choice, otherwise there might be long queues outside.
This is also the first time that Hojo Kyosuke knew the name of the bookstore "Guji Guji", which can only be said to be very two-dimensional. Of course, this is translated, and the actual store name is written in Katakana.
It is said to be a bookstore, but in fact, game CDs and various surrounding areas are actually sold, but in the upper floor, the first floor is mainly books.
After letting a boy who happened to walk out with the thick "Weekly Boy High", the two walked in.
The interior of the bookstore seems a bit crowded, with books on the front, back, left and right. Each bookshelves has categories written on it, and they are classified according to the release date, etc. Although the bookshelves are placed very regularly, the base area is here, and the bookshelf and the aisle between the bookshelf and the walls are very narrow.
"Keisuke Kyosuke, that person is holding our comics." As soon as he walked in, Eriri immediately approached Kyosuke Hojo and said in an excited voice that could not be concealed.
Because of the narrow passage, the two of them were basically huddled together. In the space full of ink and plastic smell, a scent of eggs suddenly came into Hojo Kyosuke's nose. What's going on? I suddenly felt a little hungry. How could the smell of Eri Ri be so strange?
"Idiot, there's not just our comics on it. Maybe people buy them every issue, so there's something to be excited about."
Although he said this, his heart also fluctuated. Yes, that person will see the comics I drew later, and I will become a writer. Thanks to myself, thanks to Yinglili, and thanks to ONE.
"Idiot, of course I know, I just said that just because you are too nervous!" As if you were fighting back, the girl said two idiots in a row.
OK, Hojo Keisuke rolled his eyes in his heart.
When I came to the relatively spacious magazine area, there were books that people would buy in each issue. Some stores would choose to place at the door to facilitate customers, while others would choose to place them at the bottom of the store, so that customers could read the books on the way, and perhaps increase sales.
Guji Guji is the latter, but his magazine area is relatively wide, with two rows of small chairs, and even magazines that have been opened by the clerk for customers to watch. Of course, even if he doesn't take the initiative to disassemble, a small layer of plastic paper can't stop the money-scared Ah Zui.
At this moment, there was a large group of people surrounding the bookshelf where "Weekly Boy High". Hojo Keisuke originally wanted to call Smimasei and Eriri to break into the penalty area as usual, but was grabbed by the latter.
"What's wrong?" he asked in confusion.
"What they are discussing seems to be "One Punch Man"." After entering the bookstore, Eiri, who was still wearing a hood, pulled Hojo Kyosuke to a closer position to the bookshelf.
"So are we eavesdropping now?" Hojo Kyosuke leaned against Eriri's head and whispered.
Spring's jacket is already very thin, and the ventilation system in the store is very good, so as the sound reaches Yingli Li's ears, there is a warm breath. The sensitive ears are suddenly attacked, and the girl feels her body soft for a moment, and her little face turns red in an instant.
Ahh, this idiot, why are you doing so close? I wonder if the five centimeter range around the beautiful girl is a restricted area! Humph, it turns out that I wanted to confess to me before, so I kept trying my best to get close to me.
"Don't get so close, you're a big pervert." A voice that was not louder than the breathing sound came from the girl's mouth.
"What?"
Forget it, just treat it as a benefit to celebrate the success of the comics in advance, so that he can breathe the air full of the beautiful girl's body fragrance. Fortunately, the hood is big enough that the girl hides her red face in the shadow.
"How can creators be called eavesdropping! This is called listening to readers' opinions, stupid."
Shaking his upper body, Eriri attacked Hojo Kyosuke with her head. Unfortunately, after being buffered by her hair and hat, the attack seemed soft and weak, even like a close collision between a couple.
The attacked person, Kyosuke Hojo, obviously didn't understand the girl's intentions. He looked disgusted before, but why did he suddenly make such intimate actions again? I really don't understand.
Then, those who were reading "Weekly Boy High" in front of the bookshelf behind them were also continuing to discuss.
"I'm so touched. Even the kid with such an annoying butt and chin is willing to block his life and save him. Is this the general's mind?"
???You guys are really in a state of ghosts. Which branch are you from? You come to Dongcheng the day after tomorrow to practice. Hojo Kyosuke was confused. It is not surprising that there are so many members of the Rapunished Angels, but it is not right to meet them like this coincidence?
"Hahahaha, what about you, the handless demon." Eiri's body kept shaking, and laughing mixed with teasing voices. While she was talking, she still had her arms on Hojo Kyosuke's belly, her delicate voice was full of pleasure.
Because Eriri pulled herself away and was not discovered, Hojo Kyosuke decided not to pursue his offense to the unarmed demon.
"So let's change to a bookstore, right?" Someone decided to retreat strategically. It is common for the author to observe the market response of his works, but it would be embarrassing if he was caught on the spot.
"No, this is a good opportunity to observe readers' feedback." Eriri held her smirk and tightly grabbed the corner of Hojo Kyosuke's erection.
"But, can exercises like 100 push-ups and 100 sit-ups really become so powerful every day?"
"Bastard, I have so many opinions on reading a comic!"
Yingliri, who was obviously just silently sad when others posted negative comments on her work, was so furious that she was like a lioness protecting her cub. She immediately wanted to step forward and give the invisible guy a look.
"Calm down, please let Teacher Eriri stop the thunderous anger." Hojo Kyosuke hurriedly grabbed the corner of the girl's clothes, and the characters were instantly exchanged.
"Really, did he know how difficult it is to stick to these exercises every day!"
The dragged Eriri was still indignant. This was a comic that Kyosuke and I worked hard to draw! The girl had the urge to rush out to buy all the comics and fill out 10,000 replies by herself.
Listening to the girl's thoughts, Hojo Kyosuke was so funny. You should know that when the two completed the final version, the girl had questioned this point, and at that time she said the same thing as that person.
Moreover, although he is engaged in fan creation that is not influenced by business, the girl often tells him when she is actually creating, "Although writers are a very free profession, they must fully consider the readers' reactions and cannot just let themselves go."
But the girl who said that, she looked unreasonable at this moment. While she was amused by the girl's cute behavior, Hojo Kyosuke knew that it was Eriri's protection for her.
