This Japanese Story Is Not Too Cold

The deadline for online voting for the Youth Painting Awards is the day after tomorrow.

Beichuan Eri’s work is currently ranked first with 1563 votes.

However, the next work is Asuka Ando, ​​who came up from the tenth place.

She spent money to buy tickets, and the increase of one or two hundred votes a day quickly followed.

In addition, her own painter is pretty good, and some people were attracted by her swift momentum and finally voted.

Now Ando Asuka's votes are 1,521, but according to her rate of one or two hundred votes that day, it is estimated that Beichuan Eri will soon be squeezed by her.

Well

Seeing that she was about to be overtaken by the opponent, Eri Kitagawa pouted, holding the sandwiches, feeling that it was not very tasty.

She didn't quite understand how Ando Asuka's votes rose so quickly, it was obvious that Ando Asuka's paintings were not as good as hers.

Eri Kitagawa sighed while holding a sandwich.

"The website of the Youth Painting Awards?" Sakurai Saaki, who was sitting next to her, helped her glasses, with a curious tone: "Isn't Eri No. 1 already stable?"

"No, Saxi, I'm almost driven by Ando from the Art Department." Beichuan Eri touched her little head, and continued with a little embarrassment: "I thought I was already stable, but now I look at it. Maybe I am too naive."

Upon hearing this, Sakura Mio and Takigen Nanako approached.

They all know that there is a festival between Asuka Ando and Eri Beichuan. Eri Beichuan was still showing off her first place last time. Everyone also discussed where to play after Eri Beichuan was number one. How could it be two or three days? Eri Beichuan will fall from the first place in the time?

At this time, Otomo Ai's calm voice sounded: "Maybe you don't know Eri, I heard that Senior Ando seems to have spent money on the Internet to buy tickets. This rate of increase is obviously wrong."

She frowned and continued: "Not only do you usually wear Eri shoes in the club activities, but also use this method in the awards competition. Eri, it is better to let your brother come forward to solve this problem. ?"

Otomoai is the most calm and witty girl among the five, so she sees things more thoroughly than others.

At least Beichuan Eli only needs to use Beichuan Temple, the largest backer in the north of Beijing, to see her life, her life will not be as sad as it is now.

But what Dayou Ai never expected was that Beichuan Eli's face changed and she yelled loudly, "No! I can't tell Brother Si!"

"Hey?" The surrounding friends all made incomprehensible voices.

Their voices made Beichuan Eri's face flushed.

She stiffened her neck, blushed, and chested out: "This kind of thing is not something I do alone, so it doesn't make sense at all."

"I have to use my own abilities to convince those guys."

Beichuan Eri seems to have a childlike stubbornness in this respect.

But from another point of view, this kind of Beichuan Eri made the other four people uncomfortable at all.

Perhaps because of her personality, she is the one most cared and loved by others among the five.

But the group of Ando Asuka has done this kind of thing, and even the most basic fair competition cannot be guaranteed, and there is no way to convince people with their ability.

So Otomo Ai made a decision

Secretly told Beichuan Temple about this.

After all, Beichuan Temple is a predecessor, and in northern Beijing, the reputation of Beichuan Temple is simply a weapon to deter lower grades and deter seniors.

If it is Beichuan Temple, there should be a way to help Beichuan Eri.

After all, the voting day is the day after tomorrow. If this continues, Beichuan Eri will really be squeezed to second or even third place.

With this in mind, after lunch, Da Youai hurriedly packed up the lunch box, said hello to the buddies, walked back to the main building, and walked in the direction of the second grade a class.

As soon as she went up the stairs, she saw Beichuan Temple talking with a pretty girl with shoulder-length hair.

that is

Miku Kamiya in the second grade?

Otomo Ai was a little surprised.

She looked back and forth between Beichuan Temple and Kamiya Miku, and found that Kamiya Miku was smiling while talking without a word on Beichuan Temple, she was even more surprised.

Kamiya Miku is a celebrity in the second grade. Because of his talent and looks, he is often discussed.

And that brother would even chat with others during lunch break? Or the Kamiya-senpai who is popular with others? This is too surprising.

While she was still thinking about it, Beichuan Temple's gaze was already far away.

It's not very polite to take a peek like this when the other party finds it.

Otomo Ai walked out from the partition wall of the stairwell carrying the bento box, and respectfully came to Beichuan Temple: "Brother Temple, Senior Sister Kamiya, good noon."

"Friends of Eri?" Beichuan Temple looked at Otomo and asked, "Is there anything you want to do with me?"

He had long felt that Otomo liked to hide his voyeuristic gaze, but because the other party was a friend of Beichuan Eri, Beichuan Temple didn't particularly care.

"That" Otomo's eyes hesitatedly flowed over the faces of Beichuan Temple and Kamiya Miku who was smiling.

At this time, Kamiya Miku suddenly spoke: "This classmate should have come to Tera-kun because of sister Eri's affairs, right?"

She looked at her big friends with piercing eyes, and there was a hint of agility in it from time to time.

"Hey?" Otomo said in a loving tone, somewhat inconceivable: "How did Kamiya-senpai know?"

"You can tell from the way you look. It's just that I don’t know the relationship between Si-jun and me. He hesitated and didn’t know how to speak. Si-jun also said before that you are a friend of sister Eri. , It's easy to make people think of this."

Kamiya Miku replied with a grin.

But for the careless smile on her face, Otomo's heart shuddered.

This elder sister is too smart, she just thought of so many things from her own words, shouldn't she be a girl who can talk to Beichuan Temple during lunch break?

and

"Listening to Kamiya-senpai's tone, does Brother Temple already know about Eri?" Otomoai asked tentatively.

Facing Otomo's question, Beichuan Temple definitely nodded.

"Then why not help Eri?" Otomo Ai opened her mouth.

No matter how you look at Beichuan Temple, it doesn't look like you don't favor Beichuan Eli. The last time they encountered danger, they rushed there quickly. Beichuan Temple was also very reliable, and everything was solved in two or three strokes. On the contrary, they were like salted fish shouting 666 behind Beichuan Temple.

"I will do everything that needs to be done. The most important thing is to respect Eri's own wishes." Beichuan Temple's complexion was slightly slower: "Similarly, thank you for caring about Eri."

"I and Eri are friends after all." Dayou's indifferent person couldn't hold back a little.

She is the standard cold-skinned little girl who can't help being kind to herself.

She will always remember the people who were kind to her. She will never forget the people she has done badly.

Otomo Ai took a deep breath and returned to a respectful and indifferent expression and said:

"Since Brother Temple already knows. Then I won't bother Brother Temple and Senior Sister Kamiya's lunch break."

After leaving this sentence, Otomo Ai bowed and turned to leave.

Seeing Otomo Ai's back, Kamiya Miku couldn't help but smile twice: "This junior can really talk."

"It's quite talkative." Beichuan Temple nodded beside it, agreeing.

I just don’t know if what he agrees with is the same thing as Kamiya Miku’s approval.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and in a blink of an eye it was three hours before the voting deadline.

These two days are very difficult to wait for Ando Asuka.

From the tenth place at the beginning to spending money to buy tickets on the Internet, Asuka Ando posted all his pocket money, not to mention, even spent part of the supplementary tuition fees.

She had to let Beichuan Eri taste the taste of others stepping on her feet.

"That guy dared to confront me." Ando Asuka gritted his teeth bitterly.

That was when Beichuan Eri first joined the art club, and the people in their small group were holding Beichuan Temple and joking.

"Oh, that's why it's really incredible. The Great Devil of Beichuan, I heard someone said that he had drunk human blood and ate human flesh."

Ando Asuka said these words playfully.

"I hate it, if it's really terrible."

A little girl next to her covered her mouth and smiled cheerfully.

"I also heard that the second-year senior Kamiya was also forced to be at the same table because of the threat of the Great Demon King Beichuan. It is really pitiful, Senior Kamiya."

The girl with short hair made a pitiful voice, as if Kamiya Miku was her own.

"That Beichuan Temple was originally a bad one. I heard that he cheated on the exam results."

Clang! ! ! !

A voice suddenly came out.

Beichuan Eri, who was wearing a long dress in a hidden blue uniform, stood up suddenly and looked at them with her big crystal clear eyes:

"I don't allow you to talk bad about Brother Si!"

She is of the kind of short height, but at this time she shows an inexplicable aura.

This inexplicable oppressive aura caused the small group of Ando Asuka to stop talking and laughing.

then

It was the beginning of the quarrel.

Fortunately, the art instructor Hotaru Chiba arrived in time, otherwise Eri Kitagawa would definitely fight them.

Fight alone with a small group

At that time, Eri Kitagawa's head-crushing eyes that did not admit defeat left a deep impression on Ando Asuka.

And now such a person is about to lose in his own hands.

Ando Asuka happily opened the voting webpage, and took another look at the rankings of himself and Eri Kitagawa.

Jingbei High School, Bunkyo District, Tokyo, Kitagawa Eri, work: "Asuka", first place: 2130 votes.

Jingbei High School, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Asuka Ando, ​​work: "Untitled", second place: 2115 votes

"Huh? Why are there still fifteen votes?" Ando Asuka glanced at the transfer notification on the phone, not quite understandable.

But at this point, she won't be stingy with that little money anymore.

She paid for some more votes.

Then continue to refresh the web page.

Ando Asuka, second place: 2286 votes.

Beichuan Eri, first place: 2300 votes.

"What's going on?!" Ando Asuka stood up in disbelief.

Why did Beichuan Eri suddenly raise more than a hundred votes? ! What happened?

but

"Fourteen votes short, fourteen votes short"

She was getting closer and closer to her goal, and she couldn't give up in any way. She could no longer maintain her calm expression, and once again took out her mobile phone to buy votes.

The page refreshes again.

Five minutes later, the list appeared again.

Asuka Ando, ​​second place: 2460 votes.

Beichuan Eri, first place: 2476 votes.

"What's going on?! Is there something wrong with the backstage?"

How can Eri Beichuan raise so many votes in just five minutes?

Asuka Ando, ​​who had just taken a shower and had a disheveled hair, couldn't help but call the organizer.

What is available is a notification that there is no problem at all in the background.

"hateful!"

Asuka Ando clenched his phone tightly, his eyes turned green when he looked at the rankings on the page.

In this case, continue to swipe the ticket! She didn't believe that Beichuan Eri could still break the waves in the last three hours!

Page click, refresh

Second place, 2650 votes.

Buy more tickets! Refresh!

Second place, 2761!

Buy tickets.

Refresh.

Buy tickets.

Refresh.

When he got to the back, Asuka Ando just mechanically raised his hand and clicked, repeatedly repeating this action.

but

Second place!

Second place!

Second place!

How could this be? !

The bright red second place and Beichuan Eri only had a few votes each time, making Ando Asuka gritted his teeth, pale, and kept beating to buy tickets.

But on the page, she will always be second.

Yes, it will always be second.

The number of votes reached more than 3,000, but Beichuan Eri had a dozen or so votes in the lead every time, just pressing her on her head.

"This is impossible!"

The words that the big balance is insufficient on the phone seem to be mocking Ando Asuka.

She grabbed her hair, screamed, and got up from the chair.

She has invested all the money in it, how can she be less powerful than Beichuan Eri!

There are still problems that cannot be solved by the banknote capacity in Japan? !

She stepped on the floor, but it might be because she didn't blow her hair just after taking a shower. Unexplained water stains appeared on the ground. When the soles of her feet slipped, her head slammed into the ground fiercely!

Ando Asuka fell so badly, but his chest was up and down with anger, and his mouth was still muttering unconsciously:

"This is impossible"

Yes it is

This is simply impossible.

but

"Hello? Beichuan-kun, I have done everything you want me to do, how about? Do you want to continue next?"

On the other side of the phone, Akisasa Yuna's curious voice came.

Beichuan Temple called her suddenly just now, saying that she wanted her to help.

But she didn't expect it to be such a thing

‘Are you bullying someone? ’

Looking at the first and second place with a gap of about a dozen votes, Akashino Yuna twitched, thinking in his heart.

"No, I will trouble you this time."

The voice of Beichuan Temple came from there.
