Tokyo Girlfriend Guide

Chapter 673: Lie down and don’t get up, or I’ll beat you up again

The people in the dojo had different reactions to the arrival of Hojo Kyosuke. While Naito Akifumi was chanting hymns non-stop, the sixth generation master Otsuka Yoichiro also stood up, walked over enthusiastically, took Hojo Kyosuke's arm, and asked with a hint of blame why he hadn't come home for so long.

The chubby face that looked like Maitreya Buddha was full of kindness. If someone didn't know, they might think that the person he married his daughter to was not the little yellow-haired German but the yellow-haired Hojo. But it was obvious that just by looking at the appearance of the sixth generation, it was clear that his daughter was definitely not in the range of Hojo Kyosuke's diet.

It must be said that foreigners have good appetites. Although there are so many allergens that they may die at any time, they can readily accept some "delicacies" that are indigestible in Asia.

Hojo Kyosuke had no choice but to let go of Miyamizu Mitsuha's hand, and was dragged by the arm all the way to the place where the big guys had gathered before. The Sixth Hokage still introduced the people present to him enthusiastically.

"This is Mr. Kenichi Takenaka, the chief of the Metropolitan Police Department's Eighth Convenient Headquarters. I heard that Hojo-kun's academic performance is also good enough to go to the University of Tokyo. If you aim to become a police officer in the future, you must learn from Mr. Takenaka."

"I have long remembered Takenaka-san's name. Every time I meet with seniors who were admitted to the University of Tokyo, I always hear them talk about Takenaka-san's legendary experience. He graduated with the top score in the comprehensive law course of the law department of the University of Tokyo and entered the Metropolitan Police Department. He is the youngest police chief in the country."

Hojo Kyosuke smiled broadly, speaking in a gentle and humble tone:

“No matter what kind of person you want to be in the future, outstanding people like Takenaka-san are worthy of learning for us younger generations.”

After someone said this, everyone present couldn't help but look surprised.

This young man in front of me, who is as gentle as jade and can win people's favor with just a few ordinary words, is he really the villain with a domineering and arrogant aura just now?

Among them, Kenichi Takenaka felt it most strongly. Everyone would say "I've heard a lot about you", but the young man in front of him was obviously different. As soon as he heard that the young man in front of him often met with seniors from the University of Tokyo, he couldn't help but want to ask him. Later, when he heard that the other party even knew the proudest thing he did in college, his favorability increased. When he heard the other party talk about his achievements in politics, he instantly felt comfortable flattering him.

He is such an outstanding and rebellious young man, but he respects me so much and even remembers my glorious history. He must really respect me.

The superintendent also had a warm smile on his face, patted Hojo Kyosuke on the shoulder, and said in a friendly tone:

"As far as I know, Hojo-kun is a talented person who was specially recruited by the University of Tokyo. He will definitely surpass my achievements in the future. Naito told me that you are well-loved by seniors and juniors in school. I can't wait to see how you will shine when you enter university."

Yes, Naito Akifumi is his direct subordinate, and this is the network of Hokushin Ittoryu. Nowadays, Japan is used to dividing factions by school cliques, but in the Edo period, it was very popular to use the Kendo Kaikojo to compile the relationship network. Many powerful swordsmen became disciples of the Kendo Kaikojo, sometimes not to learn skills, but simply to see the relationship between the master and the disciple, maybe there is a promising senior brother who can help them.

Hojo Kyosuke smiled and bowed his head to show that he would learn from his teacher, looking like an excellent young man that adults like the most. Miyamizu Mitsuha beside him laughed in her heart, thinking that if her father saw Kyosuke's current appearance, he would definitely be so shocked that his eyes would pop out.

The chief inspector, who had easily won someone's favor, took over the Sixth Hokage's position and took Hojo Kyosuke's arm to help him introduce other people.

"This is Mr. Arisugawa, the chief of the Roppongi Azabu Police Station. Hojo-kun, you..."

"Haha, I've known Hojo-kun before, and I've been planning to make Hojo-kun's school our police station..."

"This is Mr. Ishibashi, the managing director of Kyushu Electric Power. He has brought some very outstanding young people to participate in the trial. Hojo-kun, you should do your best later."

"I will try my best. Please give me your advice."

"This is from the Waterworks Bureau..."

"first meet……"

With the face of Chief Inspector Takenaka, those bigwigs in the political and business circles did not hesitate to say good things to him. Each of them praised Hojo Kyosuke as the best in the world. The latter also received a bunch of business cards, and he also took out the business card that Xisaki prepared for him today.

He did not write about the names and achievements of the animation company and comics, but about his fame in mystery novels. He even printed the award he had just won from the Mystery Association. The efficiency was frighteningly high. It was a bit straightforward and narcissistic, but the effect was amazing. When dealing with these officials and businessmen, the identity of a cultural person was surprisingly useful. In addition, the status of Japanese writers was already high, and the business card handed out by Hojo Kyosuke received a lot of praise. Many people promised to read his works in the future, and some even invited him to give lectures at their companies.

Japanese companies are very fond of organizing such activities as having well-known writers give lectures in the company. They would get a famous writer to help the boss brainwash his subordinates. Corporate culture is what they are most passionate about.

Kyujuku Shinku, who had been sought after by the big shots before, also came over and started to communicate with Hojo Kyosuke familiarly. The two casually discussed the strength of the major kendo colleges this year, predicted each other's strong opponents in the qualifying areas, and agreed to exchange and learn with Kyushu Gakuin High School and Sobu High School in the future.

The Sixth Hokage, who was like Maitreya Buddha, looked at Hojo Kyosuke, who had become friends with a group of big shots and was chatting and laughing in such a short time. His colleague's face sank and his eyes became a little sinister.

In his expectation, Hojo Kyosuke was just a freshman in high school. Facing so many high-ranking people, he would definitely behave very poorly. Even if he was not afraid, with his rebellious appearance when he first entered the door, he would definitely not be liked by these people. In this way, even if this kid really defeated Daidoji later, he could show the character of his son-in-law Qingyi to form a sharp contrast, so that everyone can see clearly who is more suitable to be the heir of the dojo.

But he never expected that this guy would be so sociable. No, this is no longer just being good at socializing.

Otsuka Yoichiro looked at the enthusiastic way those big men surrounded Hojo Kyosuke and began to suspect that this guy was a human succubus. In just a few minutes, why did these old men introduce their daughters and granddaughters to Hojo Kyosuke? ?

"Ah, I almost forgot to introduce you all, this is my good friend, Mitsuha Miyamizu."

Hojo Kyosuke struggled to free his arm from the hands of the president of some unknown company. These old men were physically fragile, and if he used too much force, he was worried that the other party would lie down immediately and blackmail him.

Hearing this, Chief Inspector Takenaka, who had been calling Hojo Kyosuke his nephew, reluctantly shut his mouth and turned to look at the beautiful girl with a noble temperament.

The heiress of a thousand-year-old priest family smiled at everyone gracefully and introduced herself, calmly telling the school she attended and her father's occupation.

In the small town, everyone knew her, and the girl was bound by her identity. She hated it and wanted to destroy the town and escape immediately. Now that she has left the town, she has to introduce herself to others. It has to be said that it is really dramatic, but Mitsuha Miyamizu, who has entered university, has long been accustomed to all this.

Even the extremely lazy Kyosuke used his wisdom in such a boring way, so she naturally would not lag behind. She knew the situation Kyosuke was facing now and hoped that she could provide some help.

As soon as they heard the name of Ochanomizu University, those bigwigs immediately showed respect. They were even more excited than when they heard that Hojo Kyosuke was specially recruited by the University of Tokyo. After all, there were always many University of Tokyo students among their subordinates, but as for the female students of Ochanomizu University, they could only hope that they would work harder so that their sons could find a student who graduated from there.

As expected, Miss Miyamizu's background did not disappoint them, and then Inspector Takenaka looked at Hojo Kyosuke with a more friendly look.

He is handsome, tall, capable, sociable, and good at picking up girls. Isn't such a person a genius in officialdom?

When the Sixth Hokage heard that Superintendent Masaru had invited Hojo Kyosuke to have a midnight snack, he could no longer sit still. How could the protagonist run away when the play hasn't even finished yet?

"Well, Takenaka-san, there's no rush about eating. Hojo-kun just came from the Mystery Association's celebration party and he's probably still full. It's a good time to practice kendo to help digest the food." Otsuka Yoichiro said with a smile, and now he turned into the appearance of Maitreya Buddha again.

Hearing this, Takenaka Kenichi's eyelids drooped slightly, and he immediately understood what the other party meant. He hesitated for a while, struggling whether to help Hojo Kyosuke, an outstanding young man, solve the dilemma tonight. It was not difficult for him. Even if so many people came for Hojo Kyosuke tonight, as long as he made a slight change and turned tonight's He-Ryu Test into a kendo exchange, he could just let Naito and the like go up and play two rounds and he could fool them.

But before he could decide whether to release this kindness, he heard the young man sitting upright opposite him say:

"Hahaha, Lord Rokudaime is such a timely help. I just happened to have eaten a little too much at the award ceremony and wanted to stretch my legs. Without further ado, please arrange it for me."

Hojo Kyosuke laughed loudly, stood up, looked around, and asked humbly:

"Excuse me, who will come up to be beaten first?"

The sharpness revealed at that moment made Superintendent Takenaka stunned on the spot.

Before the Sixth Hokage could say anything, Nishimura Ryuta, who was the first to have a conflict with Beichen Ittoryu, jumped out. These people were already impatient to wait.

"Hey, kid, hurry up and change into your kendo uniform and protective gear. I'll teach you first."

These people had been waiting impatiently for a long time. After finally waiting for Hojo Kyosuke, they saw their superiors and bosses being so friendly to him. Suddenly, the disparity of the world was displayed in front of them. They couldn't say that they were furious, but at least they had new hatreds and old grudges, which made them even angrier.

Hojo Kyosuke looked at the man who stood up, and his scanning eyes assessed the other person's strength with just a casual glance.

"Naito-san, I don't have a bamboo sword with me, can you lend me one?"

Naturally, he came to his own dojo without any weapons.

Naito Akifumi on the other side was well prepared. He got up from the ground, trotted to the wall of the dojo, and took down a bamboo sword from the bracket on the wall.

The biggest feature of the kendo field is the various weapons hanging on the walls.

From wakizashi to Kurosaku-dachi (a type of nodachi), the walls are filled with swords of varying lengths, with the longest nodachi almost as long as the naginata next to it. Naginatas also come in different sizes, including spears and long sticks. But the most common are bamboo swords, most of which are labeled with names and belong to the disciples in the dojo.

From Naito Akifumi, Hojo Kyosuke learned that there was an unusual sword enshrined in the dojo, the "Junju" blade wielded by Chiba Shusaku, the founder of Hokushin Ittoryu.

It is because of this precious sword that Okemachi Chiba Dojo became the main family.

Hojo Kyosuke was quite interested in the knife. After all, it was the weapon wielded by his ancestors.

After picking up an ownerless bamboo sword, Naito Akifumi immediately trotted over to Hojo Kyosuke and presented it to him with both hands.

Hojo Kyosuke walked into the circle formed by the people holding the bamboo sword, waved it a few times to get used to the weight and length of the new sword, then looked up at Nishimura Ryuta and said casually:

"bring it on."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Ryuta Nishimura's face turned dark. Not to mention protective gear, he didn't even change his kendo uniform?

"I won't need protective gear if I hit you, come here quickly and don't waste time."

"Haha, kid, don't regret it later."

Nishimura sneered, looked at Hojo Kyosuke with resentment, and walked into the competition venue quickly without waiting for others to speak. He was very confident in his skills, and he didn't think he could beat Hojo Kyosuke at the beginning, but since the other party was so arrogant, he couldn't blame him.

The disciples of the Hokushin Ittoryu school who were surrounding Daidoji Masashi saw the arrogant look of Hojo Kyousuke and immediately started to grumble. They didn't have any good feelings towards Hojo Kyousuke.

Before Hojo Kyosuke came, they thought, "This arrogant kid actually wants to challenge the pride of Hokushin Ittoryu."

When Hojo Kyosuke arrives by car, the time becomes "The provocateur has set out from his lair"

When Hojo Kyosuke's subordinates arrived at the Okemachi Chiba Dojo, "the evil gang of the murderer appeared at the dojo"

When Hojo Kyosuke finally arrived, looking at the handsome man, their thoughts changed slightly: "The despicable usurper may be able to turn over a new leaf under the guidance of Brother Daidoji."

And now, seeing Hojo Kyosuke standing in the field in a suit facing the enemy, they began to feel dissatisfied again: "The usurper with the name of Beichen Ittoryu is about to lose face for Brother Daidouji."

"Hey, Hojo, if you don't have protective gear, you can use mine." Daidoji Masashi shouted.

Hojo Kyosuke was a little surprised by this sudden kindness, but he still refused with a smile. His mild mysophobia did not allow him to do so. (End of this chapter)
