Are you trying to sweet-talk us?
Aki Tomoya looked at Takagi with amusement.
Not only did they target their alma mater, the University of Tokyo, with hoes, but they also targeted their friends. What a troublesome fellow!
Aki Tomoya and Mashima didn't take it to heart; the university hospital was their first choice for the time being.
Even though university hospitals are not as prestigious as they used to be, there's no future without spending some time there first.
"Even if you don't stay in a university hospital, why go to Kyoto? There are plenty of good private hospitals in Tokyo."
Pure Tokyo University students have no reason to go to Kyoto University students' places for thrills.
I'm doing so well in the Kanto region, so there's no need for me to go to the Kansai region.
"But you, Takagi-kun, weren't you the one who kept talking about the Kanto spirit back then?"
"That's right, it's me! At that time, we'll be conquering Kansai, it's called marching on Kyoto, do you understand?"
Now that we've come all the way to Kyoto, are we going to stage another Honnoji Incident?
Aki Tomoya didn't want to criticize him anymore, and Majima clearly wanted to say something.
"I won't go to Kyoto with Takagi-kun. Even if things don't go well, I can still go to Kyoto with Aki-kun, so I don't have to go all the way to Kyoto."
Majima's words hurt Takagi deeply.
How could he tell these two people that his family's hospital was very large and that his family was very wealthy...?
But the two people next to them weren't the kind of people who would be greedy for money.
"What do you mean by 'even if things get really bad, I won't go to Kyoto'? Kyoto is great, isn't it!"
Takagi couldn't help but retort.
Tokyo has its advantages, and Kyoto has its wonders. Takagi came to Tokyo from Kyoto, and although he vowed never to go back, he still had feelings for his hometown. He was a native of Kyoto.
Majima's words made him feel that he looked down on Kyoto, as if everyone outside of Tokyo was a country bumpkin, and he was just a foolish son of a landlord from the countryside.
"No, Takagi-kun, you misunderstood. I just wanted to say that I would probably stay at the university hospital at that time. I didn't mean anything else."
So even if things don't go well, Majima will eventually go to the Johoku University School of Medicine, where his father works.
His family is not short of money, and as for fame, his father, a professor, has already secured it, waiting for him to inherit the mantle and continue the tradition of the family of doctors.
"I also hope to stay at the university hospital, preferably where I can have a career development opportunity."
Aki Tomoya, on the other hand, is more straightforward. He believes that fame brings money, and if possible, he hopes to become a professor in the future, or, when he is still young, to be an associate professor like Okajima.
Therefore, Aki Tomoya and Mashima actually have the same goal.
"Two people who intend to bravely climb to the top of the white tower, I understand..."
Takagi understood what the two people meant.
One is ambitious about the White Tower, and the other wants to maintain the tradition of a family of doctors.
He intends to inherit the family hospital, and it is precisely because of this that he will definitely not stay at the university hospital in the end.
But it's alright, because that's something for the future, and nobody knows how long that will take.
"The thought of being in the same department as that disgusting guy Suzutani makes me so angry..."
Takagi muttered resentfully.
Why did that guy have to choose the same direction as him? What a small world!
"Speaking of which, Aki, you seem to know so much about Suzutani's future direction. It seems you two have a really good relationship."
Takagi pursed his lips as he spoke. Although he was very unhappy with Suzuya, he had no reason to expect the people around him to be like him.
He had no reason to interfere, nor could he control it, and he was well aware of the situation himself. Aki Tomoya's relationship with Majima and Suzuya was quite good.
"We're closer now, that's all."
Aki Tomoya shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do, even though the other person was naturally at odds with Suzuya.
Chapter 393 Considering the Future
Spring break, summer break, and winter break are observed as usual. However, strictly speaking, the academic year at Japanese universities is divided into two semesters. Therefore, even after returning from winter break and finishing the major exams, the second semester still ends.
I've successfully finished the major exams, and now I'm just waiting for spring break to end so I can go to the medical school.
Thinking back to the entrance ceremony I attended at the Budokan two years ago, Aki Tomoya had never been to that place before, not to see a concert, but to attend an entrance ceremony.
As for the martial arts hall, I've only been there once.
After spring break, a bunch of people will go back in, and a large number of people will leave the Faculty of Liberal Arts.
Starting in the third year, students are further divided into different specializations, such as Arts I and Arts II, Science III and Science II, and so on, and they have to choose a specialization to enter the corresponding faculty.
Of course, there's not much difference between Arts 1 and Science 3; the former studies law, and the latter studies medicine.
After completing the preliminary courses for the first two years, I immediately started my studies after the two-week spring break.
For medical students, there are four years left in their medical studies; for students in other departments, there are only two years left.
"I'll graduate the year after next, which means I only have two years left. I really want to be like you, without having to worry about the future!"
Sayaka Kudo spoke with an envious tone, her words putting immense pressure on Tomoya Aki.
What does it mean that he won't have to worry about the future?
Sayaka Kudo really overestimated him!
Moreover, she still has two years until graduation, which is plenty of time for her to consider.
"I also need to seriously consider the future, so please don't make it sound like I want everything to go smoothly in the future and that I don't need to worry about anything..."
Aki Tomoya sighed as he spoke.
He's someone who seriously plans for the future, so how could he be different from what Kudo Sayaka said, that there's nothing to worry about?
"Mingming is someone who could easily make a living as a doctor, unlike me, who will have no future if I don't work hard!"
"?"
Sayaka Kudo was probably joking.
"I can't laugh at the joke that Keio University graduates have no future."
To say that is actually quite modest.
He graduated from Keio University, after all.
The reputation of a top-tier university is still very useful.
Some places claim to value ability over background, but in reality, they only recruit from specific universities.
In Japan, a student's background is readily apparent, and there's a strong emphasis on prestigious universities.
"Sayaka, if you can't make a living writing novels, why not consider becoming an editor at a publishing house? I know a senior colleague named Hayaka who became the deputy editor-in-chief at a young age."
Machida Sonoko is a perfect example. She thrived as an editor, and her status in the publishing house's editorial department rose accordingly.
If Sayaka Kudo is really worried that her novels won't find a market, she might as well become an editor.
"found it!"
However, Sayaka Kudo didn't listen at all.
She slammed the magazine she was holding onto the table with a thud, then pointed to a spot on it, gesturing for Aki Tomoya to look quickly.
The latter rolled his eyes, but still looked over seriously.
"...Now that things have come to this, you still say you have no way out, but haven't you already done your interviews with people on that platform?"
Aki Tomoya couldn't help but complain.
Not long ago, she was saying that she was worried about having no way out, but then an interview with her was published in a magazine.
Ah, as expected, you can't trust a woman's words.
"Didn't you notice this is about his debut work?"
Sayaka Kudo reminded her.
The interview contained absolutely nothing about her new work.
She has absolutely no desire to mention her previous work again.
"Yifawu!"
She said this with great resentment.
If this continues, it will really turn into a sex shop.
Because of the steady increase in sales of her debut work, she was interviewed, which left Sayaka Kudo with mixed feelings.
There's absolutely nothing new going on with her; all people know about her is her debut novel—that is, "Oh, so she wrote that novel..."
A strong sense of crisis, an overwhelming sense of crisis!
She didn't know whether she should say it was shameful to live off her past achievements, but she seriously wanted to be a full-time writer. What did it mean to end up living off her past achievements?
