Tokyo Soft Rice King

Without relying on parents and family background, and without relying on innate physical value, what else can you show off?

Anri Hitomi herself couldn't think of it.

So she wanted to get answers from him.

If you had the same gaze as Mother... you should be able to see it.

Please tell me.

Where exactly is my value?

Chapter 6 Genius and Mortal

Hei Yuming crossed his arms and looked the squad leader up and down.

Even if you let him make the offer, you have to first make sure whether the help he can provide is crucial.

"Let me ask first, how many people are there in the Arts Department now?"

The monitor first raised three fingers, and then raised his little finger.

"There are three of us now, including me. If you, Kuroba-kun, join us, we'll have four."

"Even if I join, it won't solve the problem. The minimum number of members in a club should be at least five, right?"

"Yes, that's true, but the Arts Department won't be targeted by the Student Council until the seniors graduate."

"When do third-year students officially quit the club?"

"Kuroba-kun wants to know how much time is left in the literature club, right?"

"Yeah, just a quick estimate."

"Well... third-year students from other clubs usually retire in November, but our Arts Club doesn't have any competitions to participate in, so the retirement time for third-year students will be a little later, but at the latest by the end of the second semester. Starting from the third semester, the seniors will no longer be considered active members of the Arts Club. As I said earlier, the seniors are actually concentrating on reviewing and are no longer coming to the club."

"The new semester starts tomorrow. There are still four months until next winter break..."

There is still plenty of time. As long as we find one more person within this year, we will have five people in total.

In other words, the timing of Kuroba Akira's joining had not yet reached the critical moment of the "company's abolition crisis", so it can only be regarded as a small help.

And even if enough members are not found by next year, the squad leader can mobilize his own popularity to find a bunch of people who are willing to help add people. After all, all he needs to do is write an application for joining the club, which is a piece of cake.

"Suppose I join the Arts Club. Do you have a candidate in mind for the fifth person, class monitor?"

"not yet."

"Um……"

At this time, Hei Yuming has already decided to join the literature and arts club, and the next step is to see what benefits he can get from the class monitor.

In fact, even if you don’t want anything, it’s not bad to just do a favor.

Building a good relationship with the squad leader now is also an investment in the future.

Although it doesn't mean that being good at studying will definitely make you a lot of money, having a talent for studying means that you will continue to improve.

Moreover, Anri Hitomi is very good at observing people's words and expressions and has good interpersonal relationships. She is not the kind of high-scoring idiot who only knows how to study.

People with such excellent communication skills and who are also good at learning will definitely make a name for themselves in the future.

But Hei Yuming was really hungry.

He didn't want to let go of the fat sheep that was delivered to his mouth.

"Squad leader, can you show me your hands?"

"Hey?"

"I want to see my palm and then decide what I want."

"Can Mr. Kuroba tell fortunes?"

Hei Yuming lied without blinking.

"Understood."

"That's it..."

Anri Hitomi was a little surprised and disappointed. At this time, he actually relied on such an unreliable method as divination to make a decision. Did she choose the wrong person?

Female high school students are very obsessed with fortune-telling. Hitomi Asato often talks about this with her friends in the class, such as what is today's lucky color, what is the lucky number, and various subtle psychological tests.

But in fact, she didn't believe in such unrealistic things from the bottom of her heart, and she only absorbed the relevant knowledge in order to have topics to chat with them.

The more she read those fortune-telling books, the more certain she became that there was no way to predict the future. It was all just psychological suggestion and chance.

Mother once said that only foolish people would pin their hopes on illusory things, and those gamblers bet everything on unreal luck, so they become losers in life.

So when people talk about divination, Anri Hitomi would just join in the conversation, trying her best to avoid taking stupid divination tests herself.

If you listened to the entire conversation between the class monitor and his friends, you would have noticed carefully that Hitomi Asato never mentioned her lucky item or lucky color.

Because she doesn't believe in these things at all.

But the fact that this method was proposed at this time made her feel that Hei Yuming was indeed an interesting person.

So this time, facing the serious Hei Yuming, she made an exception and stretched out her right hand that was used to hold down her skirt.

"Okay, then I'll ask Kuroba-kun to take a look."

"Not the right hand, but the left hand."

"Oh... here you go."

Under Hei Yuming's tough tone, the squad leader took out his left hand, which was used to press down the buttocks behind the skirt, and gave it to Hei Yuming.

Hei Yuming held her left hand in front of him and examined it attentively.

Although Hitomi Asato is very good at communication, she has never had a boyfriend or held hands with a boy. This is her first experience of having her hand held and looked at carefully by a boy.

The girl's heart locked in the box is trying to jump out uncontrollably.

Until just now, she had been able to deal with Hei Yuming's soft words naturally, and even fought back, but now, with her hand being held, it felt like her lifeline was being pinched and she couldn't move...

As expected, I still can't completely hide my inner feelings.

My palms seem a little sweaty...will there be any smell?

"Um, Kuroba-kun, can you let me wipe my hands first?"

"No, I can see clearly."

Hei Yuming replied without even looking up.

He is so serious...

It seems really 'professional', right?

Hei Yuming was indeed concentrating on looking at his hands, because otherwise he couldn't see clearly.

However, Hei Yuming was not looking at palmistry at all, and he didn't understand palmistry at all.

The reason why we need to look at the hands is because Hei Yuming's "plug-in" is checked through the hands.

As mentioned earlier, Kuroba Akira saw the words "Academic Ability A" on the class monitor's right palm, which means that the class monitor has A-level learning ability, which is a very versatile and advanced talent.

Since there are words on the right hand, there will naturally be words on the left hand as well.

In fact, it was through the words on his left hand that Hei Yuming first discovered that he was not a "son abandoned by heaven". It turned out that the Lord God had given him a small cheat.

This is really a very inconspicuous plug-in, so inconspicuous that he didn't even notice it when he first crossed over.

Other time travelers all have systems that allow them to see rich character information and various fancy functions. The superpowers they are given are refreshed every week, and they can even chat with the host. But when it comes to Hei Yuming, there is not even the most basic virtual frame that appears in front of his eyes.

It's simply the beggar's version.

Calling this thing a system is an insult to the system!

However, Hei Yuming is still very grateful for this cheat given to him by God.

Unpretentious, but useful.

If the palm of your right hand reflects "talent", then the palm of your left hand contains "hard work".

As long as Kuroba Ming concentrates, he can see the "proficiency" emerging in his left hand.

However, unlike talents, proficiency often has multiple levels, which is why Hei Yuming checked it so carefully.

And in the squad leader's left hand, lines of proficiency appeared and disappeared one after another...

「Mandarin Level 1」

History Level 1

Geography Level 1

Political Level 1

Economic Level 1

Mathematics Level 1

「Science Level 1」

English Level 1

Piano Level 1

"Go Level 1"

Calligraphy Level 1

Art Level 1

「Flower Arrangement Level 1」

Tea Ceremony Level 1

Ballet Level 1

"Acting Skills Lv1"

……

This is too much!

Not only did he master all subjects, but he also dabbled in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

This is true genius! Mortals don’t understand!

Chapter 7 The First Bowl of Soft Rice

Hei Yuming was simply numb from watching it.

Could it be that her "A" talent is not only reflected in her academic performance, but also has an impact in other aspects?

That talent is really amazing!

It turns out that people with high IQs learn things quickly, which is really enviable.

As the saying goes, more skills are better than less. Although learning more does not guarantee more benefits, it can increase your opportunities to perform (pretend) and show off (force), and it can also leave you with more options, which will lay the foundation for your future development in any direction.

However, combined with the analysis just now that the class monitor may have a lot of family pressure, perhaps she did not learn these things because she was interested, but was the result of receiving "elite education."

Kuroba Akira knew very well how much effort it took to improve the proficiency of a skill to the level of Lv1 that could be recorded on his left hand.

Because not long ago, Kuroba Akira accidentally saw the words "Japanese Lv1" appear on the palm of his left hand, and there was an experience bar below that had only advanced a little bit. Only then did he discover that he actually had this strange ability.

In other words, this is the proof of his efforts after he spent nearly half a year, almost all his time, practicing this language, which is equivalent to a "certificate".
