[Japanese Edition] Love at First Kiss] Female Supporting Struggle

Reiko Matsumoto counted the time and waited until 09:30 to take a shower and change clothes.

The place where she and Naoki Irie made an appointment for tutoring was an Italian cafe in Akasaka, and it took Matsumoto Reiko about ten minutes to walk there.

It was almost ten o'clock, and most of the people who came to have breakfast had finished their meals. There were not many people in the coffee shop, only the aroma of scrambled eggs and bacon could be faintly smelled in the air.

"It's been a long time." The waiter greeted Matsumoto Reiko.

"Well, almost," Matsumoto Reiko thought for a while, "it's been six months."

Reiko Matsumoto is familiar with the owner and employees of this store.Before going to private school, every time she got tired of staying at home, she would come here to read.But since I went to the private school, I basically haven't been here again.

"Is it still lemonade?"

"Well," put away the schoolbag, thought for a while and added, "Show me the menu again."

Not sure about Irie Naoki's taste, Matsumoto Reiko ordered a latte that couldn't go wrong, and an apple tart.

Looking at the time, there are still 10 minutes.She took out the textbooks and handouts that she would use later, and went through the problematic places by herself first.

Matsumoto Reiko complained that Tsurumi Marin likes to use a marker pen to draw colorful textbooks, but in fact she is not much better.

Reiko Matsumoto likes to use sticky notes, colorful sticky notes.

When she was reading, if she encountered any problems, she would write them down on sticky notes and stick them in the notebook.For the wrong questions, the revision is also written on the sticky note and pasted on the note.

She also set up a set of symbols for her notes, for example, → means how many pages to turn to, a slash means that the question is not clear, and different colors have different meanings.

After each chapter and each section, there is a mind map drawn by her.

Reiko Matsumoto loves her notes very much. She treats her notebooks as works of art, and she feels happy every time she reviews them.

As soon as Irie Naoki walked into the cafe, he immediately saw Matsumoto Reiko who was reading a book with her head down.

She just sat there like a painting.

Reiko Matsumoto's facial features are firm and resolute, and she doesn't look as soft as Japanese girls. The corners of her mouth droop slightly, and she looks cold when she is not smiling.But when she smiles, it makes people feel kind and friendly.

As if feeling that she was being watched, Reiko Matsumoto raised her head, and seeing that it was Naoki Irie, she waved to him happily.

It's like being on a date.

Thinking of this word, Naoki Irie felt awkward and shy in his heart.

"How is it?" Matsumoto Reiko also felt a little nervous, she said something without beginning and ending, and quickly added, "Here."

"That's right." Naoki Irie nodded and didn't speak again.

Feeling a little uncomfortable, he picked up Reiko Matsumoto's notes and looked through them.

He had read Matsumoto Reiko's notes before. At the beginning, Irie Naoki was a little surprised by Matsumoto Reiko's symbol system, but it was not difficult for him. After reading it twice, He can know it by heart.

But his mind is not on this right now, he casually flipped through a few pages and put it down.

"Let's look at these questions today," Naoki Irie closed Reiko Matsumoto's notes and put them aside, and took out a notebook from his schoolbag.Inside were a few questions he found for Reiko Matsumoto's blind spots when he was preparing last night.

Reiko Matsumoto's foundation is very good, but sometimes when encountering a problem with a deep routine, it is easy to turn a corner, and she often uses violence to solve the problem.

For example, for students who have not learned the arithmetic sequence formula, when encountering the summation problem from 1 to 500, those with a more flexible mind will find the law; those with a stupid mind may simply give up; A little bit, but those with commendable perseverance can directly use their own computing power to make hard calculations.

All in all, it is that the brain is relatively single-minded and cannot turn.

Reiko Matsumoto took the notebook, didn't say anything, and started writing the questions.

————————————————————————————————————

"...Then, by substituting it in, you can find out,"

"Ah, I see." Reiko Matsumoto nodded, "This method is very useful."

Irie Naoki tilted his head and nodded in recognition.

According to Matsumoto Reiko's experience, there will always be such a magical creature in school, he will know what the teacher told him, he will know what the teacher didn't tell him, and the most frightening thing is that he will know what the teacher didn't know.

Another characteristic of this kind of creature is that their problem-solving methods are often simpler than the teacher's.

"So," Reiko propped her chin with her right hand, she stared at Naoki Irie in amazement, as if discovering him for the first time.

"Huh?" Irie Naoki tidied up the books on the table somewhat unnaturally.

When he was talking to Matsumoto Reiko, he was natural, but now that the topic was over, he began to feel awkward and at a loss.

He shifted his position, trying to look more natural, but found it difficult, like a thorn in a chair.

Reiko Matsumoto didn't notice Naoki Irie's discomfort, she seemed to have discovered him new.

For a long time, Reiko Matsumoto knew that Naoki Irie's grades were better than her own, but this kind of goodness was only reflected through the test scores, and she had no actual experience of how good it was.

Take "The Big Bang Theory" as an example, Sheldon Cooper can easily crush her, and Howard can easily crush her.

So what is Naoki Irie's level? After tutoring, Reiko Matsumoto felt that it should be at least similar to Leonard.

This is so cool!

"What is Naoki going to do in the future?" Matsumoto Reiko asked a little excitedly, she felt that she was watching a future experimental physicist.

Before Reiko Matsumoto was reborn, science had become the most fashionable and sexy.

Just like Einstein at the beginning of the twentieth century could become an idol popular all over the world.

For a young man, it is not cool to be able to recognize AKB48, but it is impressive to be able to say all the names of the people on the 1927 Solvay meeting photo.

Open-mouthed string theory, closed-mouthed condensed matter,

Science is the greatest romance and sexiness.

Schrödinger's cat is no longer compelling, and Heisenberg's uncertainty theory is barely cool.

Quantum entanglement, collapse of wave function, high-dimensional space, parallel universe,

Make it clear to greet people.

CERN, FAST, LIGO

Even if you can't understand "General Relativity", you must always have "A Brief History of Time" and "The Universe in a Nutshell" on your desk.

In the eyes of Matsumoto Reiko, Naoki Irie at this moment is simply too sexy.

"What are you doing?" Irie Naoki was taken aback by the question.

Just when Reiko Matsumoto had fantasized about Naoki Irie wearing a T-shirt, holding a Starbucks in his hand, and operating cutting-edge instruments in the laboratory of Caltech, Naoki Irie's future was still a phantom in his mind.

future, direction of life

He has not discussed this topic with anyone.

Unlike his intelligent appearance, Irie Naoki is actually a person who lacks self-confidence.While he was growing up, his mother was always making decisions for him.He had some thoughts, but when he didn't get his mother's attention when he said it, he was no longer used to expressing himself.

His father is sometimes willing to listen to his ideas, but because of his love for his mother, he will unconditionally submit to his mother.

Irie Naoki couldn't get support from his family, and after a long time he got used to obeying.

So be it, anything is fine, anyway, it is you who make the decision in the end.

He has no chance to explore his values ​​and goals, because in the environment he lives in, his mother is the authority and she will choose for him, so he becomes more and more without his own ideas.

Sometimes, he also has some ideas, some directions he wants to try, but his mother's disapproval makes him habitually shrink back.

Sometimes, he would also want to lose his temper and express his thoughts and dissatisfaction loudly, but the experience of being dominated since he was a child made him unable to summon up the courage to say no.

His heart is weak.

But seeing Reiko Matsumoto who was looking at him expectantly, Naoki Irie hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Informatics, I hope to engage in work related to information technology in the future."

"Huh?" Matsumoto Reiko opened her eyes wide in surprise.

In fact, Japanese intelligence science has nothing to do with spies and agents. The corresponding Chinese related science is actually information technology.

"It's amazing! So Naoki wants to become Japan's future Bill Gates or Jobs."

"Eh?" Now it was Naoki Irie's turn to be surprised. Although computers have been used for home use, it is rare to know Bill Gates and Jobs. "Do you know Jobs?"

"Of course." Reiko Matsumoto nodded as a matter of course, and asserted without hesitation, "Jobs will definitely change the world in the future!"

This is the belief of how many fruit fans!

"Hey, hey, does Naoki know how to program now? C language, C++?" Matsumoto Reiko suddenly got excited when an idea popped up in her mind.

"Of course," Irie Naoki was infected by Matsumoto Reiko's enthusiasm, and his interest became high. "I taught myself programming when I was in elementary school."

There is nothing more gratifying than being affirmed for one's efforts, which made him gradually feel confident in the conversation with Reiko Matsumoto.

"I'm trying to edit a software that can retrieve information recently." Worried that Reiko Matsumoto would not understand, Naoki Irie planned to explain further, "That's..."

"Really!!" Reiko Matsumoto stood up in surprise, "It's similar to the one in the United States..."

Reiko Matsumoto was not sure if Google was born now, so she could only pat her head, as if she couldn't remember it, and said vaguely.

"Yahoo, yes, it was improved on that basis." Naoki Irie seemed to have found a bosom friend, and took it up naturally.

"Really? This is too powerful!"

Yahoo has a longer history than Google?

Reiko Matsumoto is really excited. No one in this world knows better than her how great the development of information technology will be in the future.And this is a search engine!

Is Naoki Irie the Japanese version of Zuckerberg?Or is it Musk?The more Reiko Matsumoto thought about it, the more excited she became.

Irie Naoki didn't know Matsumoto Reiko's unconstrained style, but seeing her happy appearance, he also felt a kind of spiritual joy.

Spiritually, he likes Reiko Matsumoto, but he is actually not sure about the relationship between the two of them.

He has no friends and doesn't know the correct way to communicate. He is always worried that the two of them will fall into a situation where they have nothing to say after chatting about their homework.

But the reality is far better than he imagined. They seem to have endless conversations. Their knowledge backgrounds are so consistent, and their views on the future are so consistent.

He can talk to her about his thoughts and visions for the future with confidence and at will, without worrying about being denied. She will not bring him a sense of oppression, she seems to be able to read what is thinking in his mind Similarly, it can inspire him in many cases.

He had never experienced such a pleasant exchange, and his heart had never been so light.

The author has something to say:

Thank you for your comments in the last chapter, I love you (づ￣3￣)づ╭～

There is a computer in the room of Naoki Irie in the 96 version, and his first choice is the Department of Science and Technology of Dongda University (only later changed to the Department of Economics because of the crisis of his father's company, and later changed to the Department of Medicine for other reasons ), so the setting here is that what he is really interested in is information technology.
