I, Tomoya Aki, am not a bootlicker

Aki Tomoya was convinced, it was Ginza again.

Can Takagi think of any other place besides Ginza?

If you suddenly give him a little help, this guy seems to be showing his true colors?

It seems that Tokyo is indeed lacking someone who can be a father to Takagi. There is really a difference between having someone suppress you and not having someone suppress you.

"Ahem, I'm used to it! Slip of the tongue! Slip of the tongue! I'm really touched. You, a man who forgot about his brothers after having a wife, finally have a change of heart!"

When Takagi finished speaking, Akitomo almost couldn't help but say forget it.

"I don't have any objections, just discuss the location and time."

Majima agreed, and the three of them did arrange a time to relax.

Of course, there is no need for any romantic places.

He and Aki Tomoya both have girlfriends, so it is not appropriate for them to go to that kind of place.

"Let's talk about it in a few days. I have something else to do in the pathology classroom."

Aki Tomoya opened his schedule and looked at it, but it was not easy to set a time right away.

We still have to wait and see when is the best time to choose.

Besides, he also had to finish the things at hand first.

"Come to think of it, you're doing so well in the pathology classroom, why don't you switch to internal medicine or do research?"

"Please stop talking, otherwise our event might be ruined."

Aki Tomoya threatened.

He personally thinks that academics and research are very important, and even if you are a surgeon, you must write good papers.

But everyone has their own aspirations. Although he has now moved from the pathology classroom to the pathology laboratory under Professor Yano, this will actually help him choose any direction in the future.

If he can't make it like Okajima in the future, maybe he will consider returning to the University of Tokyo, so it is true that this is a good alternative option.

Therefore, he is very honest whether he is with Okajima or Professor Yano.

"Tsk, it's different when you have the professor as your backer!"

"Ah!"

Chapter 401 I like it the most

How does it feel to not go home for more than two years?

Maybe two years isn't long enough.

Except for the first time he went back in the first year, Takagisai never went back again, no matter how important the festival was.

He is a person who doesn't want to go back home for a short time after leaving.

More than two years is still considered a short time for Takagi.

"It seems like you don't miss home at all."

In late October, they chose a sushi restaurant in Shinjuku for their gathering. Takagi even ordered some sake for this rare gathering, hoping that the other two would have a couple of drinks together.

During the meal, Aki Tomoya asked him a question.

He was quite interested in talking about the so-called homesickness.

"What's there to think about? My dad is like that, and my sister only makes me unhappy. Apart from my mom, I really don't know why I stay there. The last time I saw that old man smile was when I was in junior high school. I guess the next time will be when I return to his hospital obediently."

Gao Mu said with some disdain that he didn't miss home, as if only a coward would have such thoughts.

But to be honest, he really didn't want to live according to the path designated by his father.

At least he still wants to be a doctor, and when he comes to Tokyo, his family won't be able to take care of him anymore.

If I had gone to Kyoto University, I would have known exactly where I would be a trainee doctor after graduation, which hospital I would go to after completing my training, whether I would need further training, and when I would go back to inherit my family hospital.

There is no such thing as complete freedom, only relative freedom.

Similarly, Takagi knew that he would not be qualified to splurge in Tokyo if his family was not rich.

Therefore, in the general direction, you cannot go against your family, for example, by inheriting the doctor's mantle and aiming to inherit your own hospital.

"You're asking me this all of a sudden. Are you homesick? How long have you just moved out? Why are you homesick so soon?"

Takagi joked that his so-called homesickness was only moderate, and he even said that it might take a long time before he would want to go back.

At least for now, there is no such possibility.

"Me? I still have good feelings for my homeland."

To Gao Mu, it sounded as if these words were not said at all.

However, only Aki Tomoya himself knows that maybe in a dozen years, he might return to his country with his family.

When people stay in a place for a long time, they will always develop feelings for it, not to mention the land that nurtured them.

Aki Tomoya feels that he now has two hometowns.

But if I really compare them, maybe it’s because I’ve been away for a long time, so I miss the previous one more.

But there is also the possibility that he will not go back, because over the years, whether he wants to or not, he must admit that the new world is somewhat different.

"I have absolutely no say in this matter!"

Majima said regretfully at this time.

Both of them are people who have left home, Takagi is farther away, but for Aki Tomoya, at least his home is in Tokyo.

But as for Mashima, it’s unknown how long it will take before he leaves home.

"Let's not talk about that. Why don't you have a drink? It's just sake. Try it."

"It's okay to drink a little."

It's just sake, very low alcohol, no big deal.

Neither of them rejected Takagi.

But they forgot that sake, although not very strong, can still leave a lingering effect if you drink too much, so you can't drink it too fast.

He drank one cup after another and didn't eat much sushi. He was just being coaxed into drinking by Takagi.

Both Aki Tomoya and Majima gradually became tipsy and a little drunk.

As for alcohol, drinking a little can make you happy, but drinking too much can harm your body.

With this idea in mind, Tomoya Aki still remained calm in his heart.

Under Takagi's instigation, he gradually came back to his senses.

"I won't drink any more, you guys continue."

By the way, he looked at the time. It was eleven o'clock and Shinjuku's nightlife hadn't really started yet.

But Tomoya Aki didn't want to enjoy any nightlife in Shinjuku. Before he knew it, it was already this time and he should go back.

"It's getting late. I think I should leave first?"

Aki Tomoya shook the watch on his wrist.

Seeing that he wanted to leave now, Gao Mu was not very happy.

"Tomorrow is Sunday, no need to leave so early?"

"No, I'm past curfew."

Takagi was about to persuade him to stay, but Majima also said he couldn't stay for long.

This made Takagi a little depressed. What happened to their agreement to party until dawn?

"We can take you to Kabukicho, where you can continue partying in the middle of the night."

"..."

Takagi was speechless. He smacked his lips and finally could only respond to the two with a speechless expression.

He was leaving and no one could persuade him to leave. It was meaningless for him to stay alone in Shinjuku, so he said, since he was leaving, let's have one last drink.

……

When I left Shinjuku, the subway had stopped running.

To get back to Bunkyo District, you can only take a taxi.

Fortunately, Bunkyo District is right next to Shinjuku, so it’s not too far to go back.

Takagi and Majima were both going back to Chiyoda.

Although Tomoya Aki could have gone the same way as them, in the end either he or they would have to go around a circle. Bunkyo and Chiyoda are both nearby, and with Shinjuku, it forms a triangle.

He felt that there was no need to go around in circles just to get by, and there was no time, so they should just go back early.

Because Takagi delayed him for a while, it was already past midnight when Tomoya Aki returned to the apartment.

After opening the door, I walked carefully from the entrance to the living room.

At this time, Tomoya Aki didn't dare to turn on the light. He didn't want to wake up Sayaka Kudo. At this time, she must have been asleep.

He walked into the bathroom, turned on the light, and then planned to wash up and go to bed.

After a simple wash, he walked into the bedroom quietly like a thief.

"Are you sleeping?"

Akitomo muttered to himself, and then he also felt a little sleepy.

"You smell like alcohol."

Just when Aki Tomoya had just laid down, a faint voice beside him almost scared him to death.

"So you haven't slept yet!"

He covered his chest, still feeling a little scared.

And at this moment, there was suddenly a warm and soft touch on the forehead.

"I was actually asleep, but I just woke up again."

She whispered, then moved closer to Aki Tomoya and sniffed him.

"I suddenly remembered that my dad was the same. He used to come home drunk very late at night."

"Only occasionally, and I just drank some sake... huh? Do you hate it?"

Aki Tomoya said softly.

"You should take a shower first to change your smell."

"Hey, at this time, shouldn't you hold me tight and comfort me to sleep?"

"I hate the smell of alcohol, not you. I like you the most. Go now!"

"So perfunctory!"

Chapter 402 The Door

Probably the best thing about being with Kudo Sayaka is that you forget when you're tired.

We started dating during the summer festival of that year, and now we are living together.

The beginning of the junior year is actually very hard, because although it is different from the five-year system in China, it is a six-year system with one extra year.

However, starting from the fifth year, you have to face clinical internship and then take several very important exams.

Learning never stops, but time is also important.

Time is short, so hold it firmly in your hands.

Spending Christmas with Sayaka Kudo in my apartment in Bunkyo Ward means that next March will be the final transition period before clinical internship.

We said Merry Christmas to each other and started to welcome the New Year.

On the New Year's Day in Neon Japan, for the first time ever, Aki Tomoya brought her home and introduced her to his parents.
