Couple...?

When Higashinoji said this, Konoe Ryoka's eyes widened. Although her face was pinched, her tone was still uncertain: "Are you going to get married?"

Seeing her astonished expression, Touyoshi finally came to his senses.

This is Japan.

Moreover, in Japan in 2003, although it was rare for female high school students to get married, it was not impossible.

Konoe Ryoka obviously took what Higashinoji said seriously. She looked very happy for a while, but then lowered her head again with a red face - she liked Higashinoji very much, but she didn't expect that this day would come so suddenly. Naturally

Somewhat apprehensive.

Seeing Konoe Ryoka's appearance, Higashinoji reached out and patted her on the head: "Okay, go back quickly, it's very late. It's almost time for you to rest. Remember to make time on Saturday."

"Oh..." Konoe Ryoka nodded innocently, and then walked out of the door in a daze.

Obviously, she is still thinking about getting married.

After sending Konoe Ryoka off, Higashinoji turned around, looked at the manuscript in front of him, picked up the dip pen without hesitation, and continued to draw.

Three days later——

Higashinoji accompanied Konoe Ryoka on the train. He looked at her looking down at the comics and asked her in a low voice: "How is it? Is it good?"

"It's very beautiful..." Konoe Ryoka woke up from the new chapter "The Winner is Justice", and then whispered to Higashinoji next to her.

They originally planned to go to the movies today and set off early.

But it happened that "Abominable Cold" was released in advance with a winter holiday special, so Konoe Ryoka happily bought "Abominable Cold" - even though Higashinoji told Konoe Ryoka that a publishing house had sent it to him.

Even the sample magazines couldn't stop Konoe Ryoka.

From Konoe Ryoka's point of view, this is the only support she has for Asi, and of course she cannot be careless.

And seeing his girlfriend supporting him so much, Higashinoji was of course a little happy.

Konoe Ryoka watched for a while before finishing "The Winner is Right". When she raised her head again, she discovered the advertisements that were densely posted on the train.

There are poster advertisements for "The Ring" and advertisements for "The Winner Is Justice".

In addition, there are also advertisements endorsed by certain celebrities.

These advertisements are posted in the tram and look scattered and messy.

Usually, Konoe Ryoka basically doesn't know how to ride the train, so she didn't know that Higashino Tsukasa's works were so popular.

She was very happy, and when she was about to take a closer look at the advertising posters painted by Higashinoji, she heard the faint discussion of the female high school students next to her.

"Although "The Lawyer Trap" by Mr. Shumotofuji is good, I think "The Winner is Justice" by Mr. Higashino is still better in terms of plot."

"Really? I haven't seen it yet, but I've seen it often on the Internet recently... It was drawn by the designer of Kumamon, right? Is it nice?"

"Well, it's very interesting. I watched several episodes in a row. It feels like I'm watching a TV series... It's really interesting."

"Really? If that's the case, then you can lend it to me."

"Hey? Go buy a copy of "The Cold" by yourself. It's only 400 yen, which isn't much. Please support Mr. Higashino."

"You guy..."

If you look carefully, you can see that these female high school students have Kumamon pendants hanging on their bags, and they seem to be fans of Higashino Tsukasa.

And one of them seemed to have noticed that Konoe Ryoka was eavesdropping and looked over here.

Then...at this moment, he saw Higashino Tsukasa standing in front of Konoe Ryoka holding the ring.

Their eyes suddenly lit up, and several little girls pointed at Higashinoji and discussed in a low voice, as if they had discovered Higashinoji.

This made Konoe Ryoka suddenly feel a sense of crisis. Originally, Higashinoji was standing and she was sitting.

But after noticing the gaze, she immediately stood up and stood next to Higashinoji.

But to be honest, Konoe Ryoka is too short compared to Higashinoji.

Therefore, even if she stood on tiptoes, she could not block Higashinoji's face.

Seeing the group of female high school students walking towards here curiously, Konoe Ryoka suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

"Hello, are you Higashinoji, Mr. Higashino?"

A high school girl with her hair tied up and her forehead exposed asked curiously.

Konoe Ryoka quickly turned her head and looked at Higashinoji.

That pretty and nervous face made Touyoshi couldn't help but smile.

But it would be a bit troublesome to deny this thing.

If a reporter from any media dug it out, they would definitely say that he was indifferent to his fans and that he was a cold-natured person - this is not a joke, they would really write that.
