Chapter 25: How Could People Who Have Different Hobbies Become Friends?
Aniki Shimizu is asking us what kinds of manga do we like to read?!
Abe Takumi even cried with happiness, "Aniki, do you mean that we can choose the genre of the manga?"
Eguchi Haruka shed tears, "What an extravagant gift it is! What an extravagant gift it is! Perhaps even Mikado has never enjoyed such a happy life!" (TL: Mikado: the emperor of Japan)
'Mikado's life isn’t as miserable as you thought!'
"Well, you should value this opportunity. Think about it carefully. What's your favorite genre? Ask your heart, tell me honestly, and then I'll help you find it."
"Is any genres ok?"
"Yes, there are all kinds of mangas, but I can't take away too much at a time, so you two can tell me your favorite genres and I will choose two books for you."
They looked at each other, and then looked at Shimizu Hakuseki, asking him in a hesitant tone, " Aniki Shimizu, you won't tell others our hobbies, will you?"
"Well," sighed Shimizu Hakuseki, "If you don't believe me, you can give up this opportunity."
They panicked. Abe Takumi knelt down skillfully and hugged Shimizu Hakuseki's legs, and Eguchi Haruka slapped himself in the face. After a total mess, they finally opened their mouths.
Abe Takumi first took a deep breath and said, "Any adult manga is ok, I don't mind the genre."
"Really? This opportunity is rare, maybe you won’t have such an opportunity after this time."
"Sorry, Aniki Shimizu! I was wrong. I like mothers!"
"What?!" Eguchi Haruka stared at his friend in surprise.
Abe Takumi blushed but still insisted on his "little hobby". After all, it was a rare opportunity.
"I like mom! No, I'm not a pervert, I don't like my mother, I just like mature women. If such a mature, beautiful woman is a mother in the story… it would be perfect."
Shimizu Hakuseki nodded and didn't make any comments. It wasn't too surprising to hear this. After all, there were many MILF adult videos in the future, which meant that this genre had a huge readership group.
He just said, "I see, you like MILF. What about you, Eguchi Haruka? What's your favorite genre?"
"Me? My favorite genre is Loli!"
"Loli? Is there an age range?"
"From eleven to fourteen years old."
"Well, I understand."
What the hell? Both of them are pure perverts! However, there is one more question.
"Speaking of that, I have one last question."
"We will tell you anything we know, Aniki Shimizu!"
"You like MILF and you like Loli, how do you two become friends?"
"Well, can't we be friends?"
"Even though we have different hobbies, we can be good friends. Can't we?"
Shimizu Hakuseki didn't say anything and turned away.
Behind him, Abe Takumi and Eguchi Haruka were still discussing the problem just now…
"Wait, you are a Lolicon? I don’t know it before! What a pervert you are. Why do you like Loli?"
"You like mom’s, you are more perverted than me. Are you a baby who hasn’t been weaned?"
"So that? You don't understand anything at all."
"You are the one who doesn't understand anything. You don't understand the virtues of Loli."
Listening to their quarrel, Shimizu Hakuseki nodded. Sure enough, the two couldn't be friends.
In the evening, Ida Shinji and Kitahara Shimomura arrived at the attic of Tokoharu Apartment.
The attic had been cleaned up. After putting some old tables and chairs in, the attic looked more like a place for work now.
"It looks good," Ida Shinji praised, "However, the room is just too neat. Without all kinds of sketches placed everywhere and piled up reference materials, I always feel like something is missing. Oh, but I think it will become a real workroom the next time I come here."
"Yes, it will," Shimizu Hakuseki said, "Sit down, please. Then… Senpai, why are you here?"
"Isn't this my workroom too?" Kasannoin Ayase sat down beside Shimizu Hakuseki and said, "Let's continue our previous conversation."
The four people sat on their knees and looked at each other. Ida Shinji first said, "Well, let me introduce each other for you. First, this is Kitahara Shimomura, he wants to be Sensei Baijie's assistant and learn painting skills from Sensei Baijie."
Kitahara Shimomura looked quite different today. Although his body was still short, and his face looked like a skinny monkey, his clothes had been carefully ironed and his hair had been gently combed, not looking like a cluttered bird's nest now.
Kitahara Shimomura took two solemn steps forward on her knees, bowed down to Kasannoin Ayase and said with a serious look, "I didn't expect that Sensei Baijie looks so young, but it's better… cough, cough, oh, it's really good to follow such a talented mangaka like you. I feel as if I'm dreaming! Sensei Baijie, please command me to do whatever you want, and I will not resist whatever excessive demands you make!"
At this time, Kitahara Shimomura's heart was as settled as still water. Oh, he had planned everything well, and everything was under his control now. For a moment, Kitahara Shimomura felt that he was the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang. Although it was somewhat different from what he imagined before… he still made a bundle!
"Cough," Ida Shinji coughed and said with an embarrassed look, "Wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"This one…" Ida Shinji pointed to Shimizu Hakuseki and explained, "This young boy is 'Sensei Baijie'."
"Chatter?" Kitahara Shimomura suddenly panicked. For a moment, he felt that the sky was turning upside down and the whole world lost color. "Chatter, chatter!"
"Calm down! Speak human language!"
"Cough, cough!" Kitahara Shimomura calmed down and roared, "This, this, this! This is impossible! Isn't 'Beauty Baijie' a woman?!"
