"But... they are all in Europe and won't come to Japan." Noa Himesaka said with some distress. "Although most of them are in Europe, there are some in Japan as well." Himesaka Noa's mother suddenly said mysteriously. "Really? Do I have brothers and sisters in Japan too? Mom, are you lying to me?" "Mom called and invited her to come to Tama for a trip, and you'll know." …… "Erriri." Sayuri Sawamura knocked on Eriri's door. "Mom, what are you doing?" Ying Lili opened the door, her voice a little impatient. She had been busy with Xia Jii's affairs these days. She sat in front of the computer for more than ten hours every day, but the progress of the notebook had not made any progress at all. "Your Aunt Himesaka invites you to travel to Tama for a few days." Sayuri Sawamura said with a smile. "Aunt Himesaka, who is that?" "She is your father's cousin, Himesaka Robert Emily."
"I don't know him. Dad never mentioned it to me." Ying Lili shook her head. "Mom, I'm very busy these days. Let's go after I'm done." "But you can't create good works if you just work in isolation," said Sayuri Sawamura with a smile. "Eri, you haven't made any progress in a while, why don't you go to Tama to relax? You might get something unexpected." Chapter 193: Eriri's Painting "Are you Eriri's cousin?" Himesaka Noa stood in front of the tram station, looking at Eriri who walked out with a drawing board on her back. With cute twin ponytails, blonde hair and blue eyes, skin like a porcelain doll, and a pair of timeless black over-the-knee socks, Eriri's appearance is very easy to recognize. "Who are you? Noa-chan?" Before going out, Sayuri Sawamura and Eriri introduced the people of the Himesaka family. Eriri was also very interested in her cousin Noa Himesaka. "That's right, I am the lovely Noa-chan." Himesaka Noa said excitedly. "I didn't expect that mommy didn't lie to me. I actually have such a lovely cousin in Japan." Ying Lili stood up straight and played with her long hair: "No, it's not as good as you said. Take me back quickly." "Cousin Yinglili, this way, mommy is waiting for us in the car." …… "Cousin Eriri, can you cook?" After returning home, Noa Himesaka started asking questions like a machine gun. "Cooking?" Ying Lili shook her head, remembering the embarrassing moment when she almost burned down the kitchen when she was a child. “So can you bake?” Ying Lili still shook her head, wondering why little girls nowadays like to rub salt into other people's wounds. "Ice cream? Sushi? Rice balls?" Eriri shook her head repeatedly. After all, she was a genius cooking girl who couldn't even cook rice.
"Cousin Eriri, you don't know anything, do you?" asked Himesaka Noa, tilting her head. Ying Lili was speechless for a while, and felt an urge to return the same way she came. "By the way, cousin Eriri, I saw you carrying a drawing board with you when you came. Can you draw?" Himesaka Noa suddenly said. "I know a little bit about drawing," Eriri said modestly. "I only know a little." Himesaka Noa sounded a little disappointed. Eriri took a few deep breaths. It seemed that if she didn't show off her skills to Noa Himesaka, she would probably think of herself as a rookie. "Naoai-chan, can you go over there, pose and be a model for me?" Eriri took out a drawing board and placed it on the ground. "Pose, is this okay? I love the cute poseone!" When she heard about being a model, Noa Himesaka instantly became excited. She closed one eye, made a scissors hand gesture, and struck a very professional pose. Eriri was stunned for a few seconds. She didn't expect that Noa Himesaka, who was so young, already knew how to show herself actively. This saved Eriri the time of explaining the poses to Noa Himesaka. "Cousin Eriri, why aren't you drawing yet?" asked Himesaka Noa. "It takes a lot of effort to maintain this cute pose." "I was just thinking about it, and now I'm painting it." Eriri draws very quickly and completes a sketch in just three or four minutes. "Noa-chan, the drawing is done." Eriri showed the sketch. Although the painting only contains simple black and white lines, the whole painting is not simple at all. Himesaka Noa's appearance, movements, and slightly arrogant expression are all outlined by Eriri. "Cousin Eriri, you are so good at drawing!" Himesaka Noa held Eriri's hand and said excitedly. She originally thought that Eriri was a good-for-nothing cousin, but unexpectedly found that she possessed an amazing talent for painting. Isn't this a light development? "Just a little, a little bit." Although Ying Lili was proud in her heart, she still laughed it off. "Cousin Eriri, how about you be responsible for drawing for me from now on, and then I will be a vtuber! With my cuteness and cousin Eriri's drawing skills, I will definitely be very popular!" Noa Himesaka's eyes shone. "This... isn't a good idea." An embarrassed look appeared on Ying Lili's face. "I'll go find Hinata right now and let her see cousin Eriri's paintings too!" "Hey, hey, Noa-chan, don't!" Before Eriri could stop her, Himesaka Noa ran out and walked towards Hoshino Hinata's house. …… "Wow, this painting is so well done. I feel like Noa-chan in the painting is even cuter than the real person!" Hoshino Hinata said in surprise. "Eh, eh? I think the real person is cuter!" Himesaka Noa was a little unhappy. "Nai Ai-chan, is this really drawn by your cousin? It's no worse than many great illustrators." Miyako Hoshino was wearing a sportswear and admiring Eriri's paintings. Miyako Hoshino often designed various handmade clothes, which also involved painting. To be fair, Eriri's drawing skills were at a level that she would never be able to catch up with in her lifetime. "Well, my cousin finished the drawing in less than two minutes!" Noa Himesaka took the initiative to reduce Eriri's drawing time by half. "Two minutes? A sketch of this level of completion only takes two minutes?" Miyako Hoshino was a little surprised.
"Nai Ai, you have such a powerful cousin, why haven't I ever heard you talk about it?" Noa Himesaka felt a little sweaty. If she hadn't asked her mother this time, she wouldn't have known that she had such a cousin. "Haha, you've never talked about having such a powerful cousin, right?" said Noa Himesaka. "Xiaohua, cousin?" Hoshino Miyako suddenly felt a sense of crisis. "Hinata, didn't you tell Sister Miyako?" Himesaka Noa looked at Hoshino Hinata. "Nyanei stayed in the room the whole time last night and didn't go out, so I forgot about it today!" Hoshino Hinata scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled innocently. . "A very handsome cousin has come to Xiaohua's house, and Xiaohua calls him Brother Kazuto." said Noa Himesaka. "Handsome cousin, living in Xiaohua's house?" "Oh, that's right! Meowne made macarons a few days ago, but Xiaohua didn't want to go out because her brother came!" Hoshino Hinata added. Miyako Hoshino felt as if her heart was cut by a knife and brushed several times by a barbed steel wool. "By the way, Sister Gongzi, I heard that Xiaohua's brother is good at cooking and baking, and he's not inferior to you at all!" Hoshino Miyako felt that her advantage was almost gone and she could now raise the white flag and say GG. "Noa, your cousin drew such a cute portrait for you. Can you draw one for us too?" Hoshino Hinata held Noa Himesaka's hand. Himesaka Noai was a little embarrassed. After thinking for a while, she said, "I have to ask my cousin first. I can't make the decision for her." Himesaka Noa and Eriri just met for the first time today, and their relationship is not that good yet! If she rashly asked Eriri to help draw the picture, she was not sure whether Eriri would be disgusted. "Then go and ask right away, and ask Xiaohua, Xiaoyi, and Sister Xiangzi as well." …… "Draw a sketch?" Eriri breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was only asked to draw a sketch and not to help design the vtuber character. "Sure, bring someone over to sketch for her." Drawing a sketch is not a difficult task for Eriri, she said generously. "Cousin Eriri, there may be too many people who need sketches..." …… "What? A dozen sketches?!" Eriri felt that her life had suddenly turned gray. Where was the trip to Tama that she had agreed to? How come she was in the den of the editor who was urging her to submit her manuscripts? Chapter 194: Reunion in a Different Place "Brother Kazuto, you're back." Shirosakika opened the door and Hayama Kazuto walked into the room.
"Has Sanae-chan gone home?" Shirosaki Hana asked obediently. "Well, I just came back after sending her home." Yushan Heren said, "Xiaohua, why haven't you taken a shower yet?" When she returned home after playing shogi, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. Normally, Shirasaki Hana would have finished her bath at this time. Shirosaki Hana shook her head: "Just now, Hinata called and I talked to her for a while." "Okay, let's take a shower quickly." Yushan Kazuto changed into slippers and touched Shirasaki Hana's head. "Brother Kazuto, did you win the game?" Shirosaki Hana moved her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping herself. Seeing the puzzled look on Kazuto Yushan's face, she had to change the topic. "That's for sure." Yushan Heren smiled, "Go take a shower and rest early tonight." …… At 11 o'clock in the evening, the lights in the room were turned off. "Kazuto-nii-san." Shirosaki Hana called softly while sleeping in the quilt. "What's wrong? Xiaohua?" When they just came back, Yushan Kazuto felt that Shirasaki Hana had something to say, but she always hesitated. "Brother Kazuto, Noai invites us to her house tomorrow. Do you want to go?" said Shirosaki Hana. "You can go if you want..." Yushan was talking to others, and suddenly felt something was wrong: "We?" "Well, Nai Ai also invited you." "What are you inviting me to do?" Yushan Heren felt a little strange. It was precisely because Hanayama Kazuto was invited, and Himesaka Noa didn't say why she invited the two of them as guests, but only said that she had some good things to share with everyone, that Shirasaki Hana felt a little embarrassed. "I don't know. Maybe it's because Kazuto's brother is too charming." The air seemed a little sour, but Yushan Kazuto didn't notice it: "Really? I think it's okay." Shirosakihua pouted, luckily the room was pitch dark and Yushan Kazuto didn't notice. "However, it seems that Aunt Haruka will not be at home tomorrow?" Yushan Kazuto continued. "Mom won't be home tomorrow." "Then if I go out again, won't Sagiri be hungry?" Yushan Kazuto said. "Are you planning to be alone with her at home?" Shirasaki Hana suddenly pressed on Yushan Kazuto. "Isn't Sanae still here?" Yushan Kazuto said with some confusion. "I, I'm not going..." Shirosaki Hana said in a low voice. "Hey, why don't you go? It seems like you really want to go." Yushan Heren touched her soft hair. "I'll call Nai Ai tomorrow morning and tell her I'm not going."
"Okay, okay, if you don't want to go, then don't go. Go to bed quickly." …… "Stay out of the kitchen, both of you!" After finishing breakfast in the morning, seeing Shirasaki Hana and Toumori Sanae trying to step into the kitchen, Yushan Kazuto hurriedly stopped them. Toumori Sanae raised her head, snorted, and walked towards the sofa. However, Shirosaki Hana was still standing there, and spoke hesitantly:
