Tokyo girls have a big problem

Chapter 29 The Door of the News Department

"You should have confidence in yourself too." Jian Shang Ai said.

“Who is it that keeps undermining my confidence?”

"Do you know Emerson? If not, then let me tell you, American President Lincoln called him 'America's Confucius.' You don't even know who Confucius is, do you?"

After saying that, Jian Shangai suddenly realized something and laughed softly: "Sorry, I subconsciously hit your confidence again."

She really didn't realize it, because there was a hint of apology in her smile, as well as genuine happiness.

"Forget it, go on. What happened to the American Confucius?"

"It's Emerson. Emerson was a thinker. He believed that God is the 'Oversoul' and that every human soul can enter the Oversoul unimpeded. Everyone can communicate with God and possess the means to acquire all knowledge—as long as you put your mind to it, kendo, baseball, football, basketball—they'll all be easy for you."

"Why don't you learn?"

"What are you talking about, Qingshan classmate? What I seek is spiritual troubles. Physical exhaustion is not what I pursue - here you go." Jian Shang Ai handed the book in her hand to Qingshan Li.

It's a book by Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Qingshan Li casually opened it and saw these words:
The individual is the only instrument for discovering the truth, in order to fully unfold the capacities of the individual soul. Each person must be a determined seeker, and must discover God for himself, through complete obedience or complete trust in his intuition.

Similar to 'just play according to the score'?
Qingshan Li also has her own music score in her heart.

Ono Mika is already in her third year of high school, the last year of her high school life, and he must help her get rid of her part-time job no matter what.

Let her take charge of her time, whether that means studying hard or enjoying school activities.

The same goes for Ono Mitsuki, a sixteen-year-old girl who attends club activities every day with a sense of guilt. No matter how sweet the song is, it will probably sound bitter when she sings it.

She didn't go to work, not so much to relax herself, but more to make Ono Mika feel better.

Let them be free, this is the current melody in Qingshan Li's mind.

The system also serves this purpose.

"Since reading detective novels cannot help you commit the perfect crime, why not read more of this kind of books?" Jian Shang Ai said.

"Thank you." Qingshan Li returned the book to her. "Next time I go to the library, I will borrow this book."

Jian Shangai looked at him for a second before taking the book.

It didn't seem like he was playing hard to get, he really didn't seem to want anything to do with me.

"Without further ado, let's go straight to the News Department and then visit the Kendo Club," she said.

Qingshan Li admitted it.

He also decided to work hard on his body.

Doing burpees repeatedly is certainly more effective for fitness, but practicing kendo can not only improve your physical fitness, but also improve your fighting skills.

There is one biggest reason: he can't stop Jian Shangai from taking action.

It is neither possible nor allowed. Love at first sight is the subject matter and the protagonist of a campus mystery novel.

Only by letting her act completely according to her own ideas can we record her accurately.

The two went to the News Department.

Function-oriented clubs such as the News Department and the Broadcasting Department are concentrated on the fourth floor.

As Qingshan Li was walking, he was thinking about his novel. At this moment, he suddenly thought of a sentence: all the mistakes started from that physical education class.

If he hadn't run himself into the infirmary during physical education class, he wouldn't have gone to the choir and wouldn't have met Ai there.

Even if she hadn't met him, she would still have founded her own club the next day, but it probably wouldn't be called the 'Athens Philosophy Research Club'.

If they had missed that opportunity, it would have been almost impossible for the two of them to meet again. Qingshan Li would not have gone to the calligraphy club, the prophecy and divination club, or the cooking room.

He would only occasionally hear news about this young lady's misbehavior on campus.

Wait, that's not right.

There’s no need to be so realistic when writing novels!
Moreover, the two must meet in order to obtain material and write novels to make money.

Just like now, he obviously doesn't want to go, but she wants to go, so he has no choice but to go.

This sounds a bit romantic, so I'd better change it to: He clearly didn't want to go, but in order to collect materials, he had no choice but to go. I heard that in an excellent novel, the author cannot control the characters. When the characters want to do something, the only thing the author can do is follow the characters' actions.

[School-level reasoning, beauty is the main ability] will definitely be a perfect work.

Anything produced by the system must be an A—except that he didn’t break the world record in running because of his poor physical fitness.

Aoyama Riki himself was also curious about the level of this book.

"Are you the type who doesn't dare to strike up a conversation and can only peek silently?" Jian Shang Ai suddenly asked.

"What?" Qingshan Li heard it clearly, but he couldn't believe what he heard.

"Always, always, always walks behind me."

"Now go downstairs, what do you care about me?"

Seeing Shang Ai stopped, he sighed with a headache.

"Aoyama-san," she said, "even though it's difficult, I still hope you can understand the feelings of the rich. I am young, beautiful, and wealthy, and I really cherish my life. I feel very insecure when someone walks behind me on the stairs."

Without waiting for Qingshan Li to say or do anything, she concluded:
"There must be a mystery novel where the criminal's motive for murder is hatred of the United States and the rich!"

Qingshan Li really wanted to sigh like her.

But he didn't, he just walked in front of her silently.

The two continued downstairs.

"Qingshan, please imagine that you are young, good-looking, and your family is very rich. And someone with poor grades, no money, and who doesn't like you is walking behind you. How would you feel?"

"I'm going to beat you up." This is how Aoyama-san feels.

"Just because you don't have the ability, you start using violence?" Jian Shang Ai said.

"I"

[School Reasoning, Main Ability is Beauty: 92.5%]

Qingshan Li calmed down.

"Everyone has different values. In my opinion, violence is also a kind of ability. I will never give up the right to use violence," he said.

"Go to the Kendo Club later. If there's a conflict, it's all up to you."

Qingshan Lihui ran faster than her.

Jian Shangai knocks on the door of the news department.

After waiting for a while, the door was opened. From the angle, it seemed that the other party had no intention of inviting them in.

The first person the boy who opened the door saw was Jian Shangai, an elegant and beautiful girl with shiny black hair. He showed a very obvious expression of shock.

"Excuse me, we are from the Athens Philosophy Research Department." Jian Shang Ai said.

"Ah, hello." The boy came back to his senses.

The door was angled slightly open.

"Excuse me?" he asked in confusion.

"Is this the news department?" Jian Shangai didn't seem to be in a hurry to go in.

"Yes."

"This Saturday morning after school, our department and the cooking department will have a cooking competition in the home economics classroom. We'd like to ask the news department to be the referees."

mean.

Wait until the News Department arrives and gets the best news, then make your request. The News Department, which is willing to help, is more likely to agree.

The door opened a little further.

but.

"I'm sorry," the news department representative replied, "but we've been on hiatus lately."
