Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home

   Chapter 568 Brother and Sister

   It's Saturday.

   Tokyo Haneda Airport, 9am.

   The Po Island siblings who got off the plane received their luggage and walked to the parking lot together.

   "Ah~~ I'm so nervous, brother."

  Hashima, who was holding books and magazines in his arms, shrank his shoulders and said nervously, "Finally...Is it finally time to meet that teacher?"

   Looking at his younger sister's appearance, Iori Hashima, who was walking beside him, smiled softly and comforted: "You don't have to worry, I will accompany you when you go out to sea."

   "But, but..."

  My sister's eyes flashed with anxiety and excitement.

   "This is the super-popular manga artist Fujimoto-san~! There are many, many girls in our school who are his fans, so I...can really become a member of the other party's studio?"

   "Well, aren't we here for this?"

   There was a slight worry on his brother's face, and he muttered in a volume that only he could hear.

   "Basically, as long as you don't have other favorable impressions of that teacher, there's no problem..."

   "Huh? Did you say something, brother?" A small question mark appeared on the little sister's head.

   "Oh, I mean that there must be no problem with your ability to go out to sea, I can assure you of this?" The elder brother replied casually.

   "Thank you, but brother, are you a little too confident?"

   "How could it be? I have always seen the talent of going overseas, so just trust my vision. Your potential in creation is limitless."

   "Ah, so...Brother, you've been hiding the fact that you're an otaku, it's too much!" There were faint tears in the corners of my sister's eyes, which was lovable.

   "That older brother, who is both handsome in appearance and inner, turned out to be an otaku like me, is beyond my imagination.

   And brother, if you suddenly said, "Actually, I'm the representative of the club "rougeenrouge", it will only frighten me! "

   After all, until a few months ago, Po Island didn't know that her brother was running a super-large fan club, and she didn't even know that the other party was an otaku.

   It can only be said that Iori Hashishima hides so well that she has always believed in the image of her elder brother as a "gentle brother" who can accommodate his otaku younger sister, although he is a condescending man.

  Hashima Iori didn't deny this, but just put his hand between his eyebrows slightly helplessly and lightly, and said.

   "Well, it turned out to be like that, so I have nothing to say. Sorry, going to sea."

   "Obviously I've always felt uneasy about letting my brother accompany me to otaku activities..."

   "Ahaha, isn't it good now? At least when we participate in otaku activities together in the future, you shouldn't have that kind of emotion when you go out to sea, right?"

   "That's true...but my brother's approach is still too much to say!"

   "Oh, what should I say? If it weren't for the fact that the person I want to meet today is too special, I wouldn't reveal my identity, at least not in two or three years."

  Bo Island went out to sea to know who the person he mentioned was, and for a while he became frowning again, "Ah, you are putting pressure on me again, brother."

   "Sorry, sorry~ Otherwise, that's fine. After the interview, how about I take you to Akihabara?"

   "Really~!?"

   Hearing Iori Hwashima's proposal, Hwashima's slightly distressed face suddenly lit up.

   "Of course~ After staying in Nagoya for so long, you must be hungry for otaku activities in Tokyo, right?"

   "Huh? That's true, but do ordinary people use the word "hunger and thirst"? "

   "It doesn't matter, I feel the same way anyway. Who is the market size in Nagoya, which can't be compared to Tokyo?"

   "I get it! Nagoya is really sorry about that."

  My sister couldn't stop nodding her head, agreeing with her brother's words.

   "You know, in Nagoya, it's hard to get something even if you arrive on the day of the product's release. Even the open order will close soon, and even if you can buy it, you will only be able to buy one."

   "About this..."

  Hashima Iori raised her little sister's suitcase inadvertently while pulling her sister's suitcase.

   "Now that you go to sea, you already know that I am running "rougeenrouge", so you can tell me what you want next time? No matter how precious it is, my brother can directly get it for you, right? "

  As an excellent fan speculator, his methods in this regard are top-notch.

   The book that was priced at several hundred at the event was resold at a price of several thousand or even tens of thousands. This was his battle as an alchemist.

He will not rely on the local method of queuing at the scene to buy goods, but will make full use of the contacts established by various means, and ask the stall owner to help reserve before the event, so as to take away those treasures with high cost performance in advance. .

   In this way, not only does it not take much effort, but you can also earn a lot of money, which is very convenient.

   So, the kind of behavior that honestly ran to the venue to line up was never the choice of Iori Hwashima.

  “Be graceful in everything”—this is his long-standing proposition and motto.

   In the face of the tempting proposal put forward by the brother, the reaction of the sister is like this...

   "—that's not going to work!"

  Bo Island refused to go to sea without hesitation, and ranted about his elder brother.

   "If you want something, you have to queue at the specified time, make an appointment in a regular way, and buy it at a normal price."

   "Even if you try your best under the correct specifications, but you still can't buy it, you must continue to work hard without giving up."

   "Don't complain about sellers, don't spread bad words on the Internet, and never deal with online sellers for the purpose of reselling."

   "Even if you want to exchange it with others, it must be based on the regular price of the product, and never do transactions that prevent the creator from getting legitimate benefits."

   "It's the right way to do otaku activities like this, right? Brother!"

  “…”

  Hashima Iori was instantly speechless.

   Such a way of fighting that is too dignified, resulting in a laborious and complicated process and a low chance of winning, in his eyes, is extremely ignorant.

   If it were someone else, he would have been too lazy to pay attention to it, and could only say one sentence that they were different, but the person who said this was his own sister, which really gave him a headache.

   And because of this, he couldn't help but complain about someone in his heart.

   "Hey, I mean, Hae, will you be too influenced by Lun Ye-kun? Do you think it is more important to follow the rules than to be able to buy your favorite products more conveniently?"

   "Isn't that of course~!"

  Hashima replied unequivocally when he went out to sea, and said from the bottom of his heart: "When I buy something I really want through a formal method like this, I feel really super super super super~ happy!"

"…Is it."

  Hashima Iori sneered at this in his heart, but when he thought of the scene where his sister happily bought those boutiques and hugged them tightly in her arms... I couldn't help but fall into self-doubt.

  —“The so-called otaku goods are just things that can be obtained with money and connections.”

   It was difficult for him to distinguish whether the concept he held was happiness.

on the other hand.

  It is clear that the two are blood brothers and sisters, and they have the same hobbies. Under the superposition of the two, they should be able to get doubled happiness.

However!

  In the world of the otaku, what went out to sea was not him, but the edification of another man.

  —It is inevitable that people will feel lost.

   "Speak up."

   Ignoring the troubles and worries of the elder brother, the younger sister, who seemed to be thinking of something, had a look of longing on her face, and muttered to herself.

   "Since we are in Tokyo, can we meet Renya-senpai this time?"

   "...Who knows?" Iori Hashima looked at her sister's expression, her mood was very complicated.

   "Then, after the interview, can we go to see Senior Lunya? Brother."

   "I'm fine, I just don't know if Lun Ye-kun is free, and..."

  Hashima Iori laughed softly and said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about going to sea, but I think Lunya-san would be reluctant to see me."

   "That's true, after all, you've quarreled before."

  Bo Island went out to sea and nodded his head like garlic. After thinking about it, he said, "Then I'll go to see Lun by myself when the time comes, so go ahead, brother."

  “…”

   Hashima Iori's face darkened, and he didn't want to say anything immediately.

   The situation is obvious, his sister has been brainwashed by the man, no matter how much he loves this sister, her status seems to be far inferior to the other party.

   However, it is not incomprehensible what he has to say.

   For Chuhai, who was two years younger than him, An Yilun was the only person she could talk about otaku.

  So when they moved their family to Nagoya because of their father's work, all they could feel when they went to sea was the sadness of losing their only friend.

   From this point of view, his previous worries did not seem to be superfluous. His younger sister still cherished the man who brainwashed her, and perhaps even the new national boyfriend might not be able to change the situation.

   As for Chu Hai's favorable impression of An Yi Lun, is it pure comradeship... Chu Hai, who was only in elementary school at the time, naturally couldn't understand it, and even his older brother was subtly not very good at judgment.

   At this time…

   "Iori, here—"

   A lazy voice suddenly came from the front, dragging him from his wandering state back to reality.

  Hashima Iori followed the sound and looked over. A black BMW 5 Series was parked in a parking space with a man and a woman standing in front of the car.

  The male is tall and handsome, and the female has a graceful figure.

  The two wore black sunglasses and dressed like a pair of entertainers who went out in disguise, but they couldn't hide their outstanding temperament.

   "Sister Zhu Yin."

  Hashima Iori showed a friendly smile on his face, and led his sister up, "It's a little bit terrifying to be fortunate enough to be greeted by the two of them on a special trip~"

   "Stop talking."

   Hongsaka Zhuyin laughed and scolded and took off his sunglasses, and one hand naturally took the other's arm, and said, "It's not so much to pick you up, I just accompany this kid to see the jade in your mouth."

  The so-called jade, naturally refers to the creator.

  Hashima Iori nodded understandingly, put a hand on his sister's shoulder, and made an introduction with a calm expression.

   "Thanks to the trust of the two of you, this is my sister, and Hashima is going to the sea. Going to the sea, this is my master, Ms. Aksaka Akane. As for this one, you will be your future leader, Mr. Fujimoto. Let me introduce myself~"

   "Ah, yes!"

  Bo Island's body trembled slightly when he went out to sea, and immediately made a 90° deep bow.

   "That! It's the first time we met, I'm Shimizu Bo Island. I'm 14 years old. I'm currently in the second grade of middle school. Please give me more advice—!"

   The voice stuttered a little because of nervousness, but it was quite pleasant to listen to.

"…Hello."

   Kato Yusuke nodded slightly, then took off his sunglasses and looked at the girl in front of him.

  The girl has long red hair and short ponytails in the style of double buns on both sides of her head. The overall body is very petite, except for a certain part that is very plump, and the size is about between D and E.

   She was wearing a lake blue dress with a red ribbon at the neckline and a blazer of the same color as the skirt, which seemed to be a school uniform.

   Kato Yusuke took a rough look, and then said.

   "Thank you for your willingness to come to Tokyo from Nagoya and go to sea. But don't be in such a hurry, we'll decide after the interview."

   "Ah, okay, I get it...!"

  Hashima straightened his body out of the sea, took a deep breath, and said with a tight little face:

   "Brother told me that if you want to become a teacher's disciple, you must pass the exam first, right? I will work hard...!"

   "I'm not a disciple either..."

   Kato Yusuke frowned slightly and looked at Iori Hashima next to him, who gave him a smile.

   So he withdrew his gaze and said to the girl in front of him:

   "...Although I don't know exactly what your brother told you, but as long as you pass the assessment and are willing to join, you can become a member of our studio."

When    mentioned the assessment, Po Island's face when he went to sea couldn't help but show a little unease, but he still nodded his head again and again and said yes.

   Then, as if thinking of something, she said timidly with red eyes:

   "That... In fact, I have been learning your brushwork since before. Teacher, I copied the painting "Love Festival" that you painted before, and I have copied it privately many times~ many times!"

   She said and gently stretched out her hand, handed out the thing she had been holding in her arms with both hands, and bowed her head again.

   "So—! If it's convenient, I hope you can sign it for me!"

  “…”

   Kato Yusuke looked down at her hand, and what caught his eye was a manga magazine called Shonen Undead, with an interview about him written in quite prominent font on the cover.

  —That's the latest supplement from the Undead Chuan Manga Department.

   In addition, there is a signature pad and a marker pen.

   In the face of the girl's request, Kato Yusuke had no intention of rejecting it. He neatly took the thing, signed his name, and returned it.

   "Here, is this okay?"

   "Yes! Thank you very much~~~~!"

  Bo Island went out to sea and took the thing excitedly, and held it tightly in his arms as if it was a treasure, his face was slightly rosy because of excitement.

  Hashima Iori saw this scene, and subconsciously estimated the price of the signature board in his heart, and then gave up angrily, after all, he couldn't **** it from his sister.

   "Okay, let's stop the gossip here."

   Hongsaka Zhuyin saw the opportunity and said: "If there is anything you want to talk about, I will wait until the car, and then go to this kid's studio first."

   So a group of people got into the car and drove to the studio.

  …
