Is it not a galgame?

Chapter 167 71. Summer is Yukata Hanabi and You
The sales performance of "The Demon Hunter" was much better than expected, and Shinji Mikami, as the producer, has finally been recognized by the industry and players.

This battle was really not easy for Mikami, especially in the early stage, when he once had doubts about himself.

Doubting whether he has the ability to be a qualified producer, after all, he has only been in the game industry for 2 years.

However, looking back now, the apprehension at that time seems to have become an interesting memory.

Diablo gave him a great workout.

The president also gave him great encouragement.

Up to now, Mikami feels more and more that Qing Zhiyuan is like a bright light in the dark night to him, or a [Master]-like existence.

Not only taught him a lot of game knowledge, but also always gave him spiritual encouragement and guidance when he was depressed.

In particular, Qing Zhiyuan's kindness to him was unforgettable for Mikami forever.

Shinji Mikami swore secretly.

In his lifetime, he will not leave pokeni, and must repay the president with better works and achievements.

So after the sales performance of "The Demon Hunter" stabilized, he anxiously took Xu Yuanxuan to find Qing Zhiyuan together, and discussed with him the development of the next work.

"President, "The Witcher" has come to an end now. Is it possible to consider developing a new game?" Shinji Mikami asked tentatively.

Qing Zhiyuan froze for a moment, then looked at him with smiling eyes.

Tsk tsk, it's like getting chicken blood.

In this world, success is the mother of success. It is difficult for people to get success factors from failure. Only when you accomplish something, will you know which direction to go is the right one.

The current Mikami Shinji is obviously in a state of being encouraged by [Success].

Good sales are more effective than encouraging [-] words.

So a good leader, no matter how pleasing he is or how extravagant his bragging is, as long as he fails to achieve results, he is a failed leader.

"What do you think? Do you have any ideas?" Qing Zhiyuan asked tentatively.

Mikami Shinji exchanged glances with Urobuchi Gen, and responded:
"Well, let's continue to develop Demon Hunter?" Mikami said seriously, "The gameplay of the game has been verified, which shows that players actually like this set. With no competitors, we should pursue the success and continue to develop the sequel of "The Witcher."

"What about the proposal?" Qing Zhiyuan frowned and asked, "I feel that it is difficult to make a sequel to the current plot."

The core of Demon Hunter is the conflict between humans and vampires. At the end of the game, the 5 different endings almost blocked the way to the sequel.

If you really want to make a sequel, you should leave room for it like Diablo, such as the blackening of the protagonist, which will become an opportunity to start the next generation of works.

No matter which ending the current protagonist Sisyphus is in, the mission has been completed.

It is actually quite difficult to extend.

"Isn't there a plot of the throne?" Xu Yuanxuan said, "Sisyphus sat on the throne, and then history reincarnated, and he became the new ruler. Wouldn't it be okay to overthrow the tyranny again in the sequel?"

Qing Zhiyuan shook his head, "This is the same as Diablo 2."

Diablo was sealed by the warrior with his body, but the warrior became the new demon in the second generation...

This reincarnation is the core process of Diablo, repeated over and over again, and using this as the selling point of "The Demon Hunter" is indeed easy to cause aesthetic fatigue to players, and even think that pokeni cut corners and the like.

Word of mouth will definitely be affected.

"Well... indeed..."

Mikami Shinji and Urobuchi Gen fell into deep thought.

"If this is the case, then although a sequel can be developed, all the characters and plots of "The Witcher 2" will actually have to be unbound from the first generation. It is equivalent to an independent story plot, and even the world background will have to be changed. .”

Holding his chin, He Tian also felt a little tricky.

Qing Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Don't be so anxious, wait until you think it over, you, and He Tiansang are both, don't spend all your time on work."

He paused at this point, always feeling that it was strange for the words to come out of the [President]'s mouth.

Not at all like a competent capitalist.

"If you have time to go out for a walk, accumulate inspiration, adjust your mood, recharge yourself, and then set off. Instead, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

"Charging?" Shinji Mikami asked with some doubts.

Oh, and forget about the lack of smartphones these days.

"Just like the Sega PG (new handheld), the battery needs to be charged when it runs out." Qing Zhiyuan finally found a way to get it back.

"come on!"

He clenched his fist in encouragement.

"Then, President, why don't we travel somewhere together?" Xu Yuanxuan said seriously.

Since it was proposed by the president, he thinks it is not bad. If he can travel with the president, he can learn some new things.

Furuhara Chunqiu is not only Mikami's teacher, but also Urobuchi Gen's teacher.

"Eh?"

Qing Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't thought that He Tian would actually invite him.

Why travel with a man?

The two were not saved.

Have you ever thought about finding girls to play with?
Qing Zhiyuan said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wada, I have already invited my girlfriend to travel to Hokkaido. I may not be able to go with you.

Mikami, Wada, you can ask the girl you like to go to the beach.

I wish you all the best. "

After speaking, Qing Zhiyuan chuckled and invited the two of them out of the office.

As soon as they walked out of the gate of the president's office, Gen Urobuchi and Shinji Mikami looked at each other, both of them were stunned.

"Damn~ I was shown by the president!"

"Ah~ I feel like I have suffered a 10000-point crit!"

"How can I repair it! I also want to fall in love!"

……

Hokkaido has beautiful scenery and has always been a very famous resort for neon lights. Especially in winter, it is really delicious to come here to soak in hot springs and enjoy the snow scenery.

But now it is August, and Qing Zhiyuan and Tsuda Nao came to Hokkaido mainly to see [Maple View] and soak in hot springs.

The place where the two of them stayed was a very famous hot spring hotel in the area. There was a bath in the room, which could accommodate two people.

Large floor-to-ceiling windows, the mountains are outside the window.

Enjoy the mountain view while soaking in the hot springs.

One night passed, and Qing Zhiyuan was exhausted to death.

Waking up the next morning, opening the window—

A gust of cold wind came in from the window.

Accompanied by the coolness, there is also the endless cold and beautiful lakeside outside.

And the lake full of red leaves reflected by the lake.

It was this scenery that pulled Qing Zhiyuan into a dream.

Here he glimpsed a long ancient meaning.

After the two of them washed up and ate the breakfast prepared by the hotel, they were ready to go out and enjoy the summer scenery of Lake Akan.

Qing Zhiyuan followed Nao Tsuda on a stroll along the shore of Lake Akan, starting a day of romantic and leisurely journey——

On the icy lake, occasionally a few unnamed birds can be seen flying by.

The shore of Lake Akan is full of forests one after another.

The early red maple leaves are like flames.

From a distance, it looks red.

Qing Zhiyuan and the others wandered through the forest like this, feeling as if time had stood still.

And the maple leaves are imitated as Danxia, ​​one wins the flowing clouds and the other wins the flowers.Yunjuan should know that the wind is easy to disperse, and it is difficult to credit flowers when they bloom.It is necessary to take advantage of the timely autumn rain, and don't sleep in the spring to mourn the years.From then on, after the rivers and lakes were separated, each went to the end of the world according to their fate.

Qing Zhiyuan's thoughts drifted halfway, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the end of this poem.

bah bah.

Too unlucky, what is meant by fate! ?
Obviously, it is destined for three lives.

Nao Tsuda didn't know what he was thinking, but he couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw his face was cloudy, happy and sad for a while.

"Qing Sang?" Nao Tsuda called his name.

"Huh?" Qing Zhiyuan raised his head.

The two looked at each other, one behind the other, wearing bathrobes, standing by the lake, which was a beautiful scenery in itself.

The reflection of the two people on the surface of the lake is really beautiful.

"Why are you walking behind me?" Tsuda Nao asked, tilting his head.

"Well...not really..." Qing Zhiyuan put his hands in his hands and looked at the other party with a half-smile.

Under Tsuda Nao's gaze, Qing Zhiyuan said, "Perhaps, I want to record the current you and the lake view. If we go together, we won't be able to see such a beautiful back."

Eh?
Nao Tsuda was taken aback for a moment, then turned around.

She gently brushed the long hair beside her ear with her hand, and before she knew it, it became red to the root of her ear.

"In this case, then you can continue to follow."

After she finished speaking, she stepped on the clogs and continued to walk forward in small steps. The soft sound of the fallen leaves under her feet was really pleasant.

Qing Zhiyuan looked at that beautiful figure and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

……

At night, they were lucky enough to see fireworks.

Fireworks festivals are held irregularly in the island assembly.

Most importantly, today is the annual Qixi Festival.

In Neon Legend, the Weaver Girl not only has to give the children skillful hands, but is also responsible for fulfilling various wishes.

The Chinese Qixi Festival is to pray for good craftsmanship and to pray for love. In the neon Qixi Festival (Tanabata), it is not mainly used to pray for love, but to pray for girls to have good craftsmanship.

At this time of year, adults and children will gather together, write wishes and poems on colorful strips of poetry paper, and hang them together with paper decorations on small bamboos in their yards. Offer offerings such as corn and pears, so as to ask Vega to bless her girls' calligraphy, tailoring and other skills to improve.

At the end of the ceremony, these offerings will be floated in the river to symbolize that one's wish can reach Tianhe.

Qing Zhiyuan and Tsuda Nao were originally planning to wander around downtown Sapporo.

I didn't expect that when night fell, I would meet men and women in bathrobes all over the street.

After a difficult communication, they realized that there will be a fireworks display tonight.

Since they couldn't grab a good position, they could barely stand on the mountain road, leaning on the railing.

The crowd is huge, and most of them are girls.

Along the river outside, many girls can be seen placing tributes on the river bank.

I hope my wish can reach Tianhe.

Afraid of getting lost, Qing Zhiyuan quickly stretched out his hand to hold Tsuda Nao.

Nao Tsuda leaned forward with a smile, and offered him a hand, like a princess waiting to be invited to dance.

The people around have a quick glance——

If there really are Cowherd and Weaver Girl in the world, then it should be the appearance of these two people, right?
Qing Zhiyuan smiled slightly, didn't care so much, and held her hand tightly.

"There are so many people, what if they get separated?"

There are indeed quite a lot of people, a few are locals, and most are foreigners.

Most of them are tourists.

"You'll find me anyway." Tsuda Nao smiled slightly.

It was then—

The first firework rose, blooming into thousands of meteors in the sky.

Colorful, lighting up the entire night sky.

"Look, Dad, look, Dad!"

The children shouted with joy.

Immediately afterwards, another huge firework rose up, like stars bursting brilliantly in the sky.

This is perhaps one of the greatest inventions of mankind—

Because it brings colors that do not belong to the world to this world.

Tsuda Nao stared blankly at this spectacular scene, with a smile in his eyes.

She turned her head and looked at Qing Zhiyuan with a smile. She wanted to say something at first, but when she met his gaze, her smile gradually froze.

Because she found that Qing Zhiyuan didn't watch the fireworks, but watched her silently.

In Qing Zhiyuan's eyes, there is only her.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Tsuda Nao ran his fingers through the long hair beside his ears, and lowered his head with a blushing face.

In the gorgeous fireworks, Tsuda Nao wore a ball head, and his stunning appearance was brilliantly illuminated by the lights.

She raised her long eyelashes, and the tip of her nimble and small nose stood upright.

The perfect lip line is clear and three-dimensional, the corners of the mouth are slightly raised, the lips are slightly opened, and the color is full...

Qing Zhiyuan felt that the whole person was about to fall into it.

"You'll miss the fireworks," she continued.

"I'd rather miss ten thousand fireworks," Qing Zhiyuan said with a slight smile, "I don't want to miss a second of you."

"..."

Tsuda Nao froze for a moment.

She lowered her head and smiled slightly, while brushing her long hair blown by the wind by her ears, her eyes flickered.

Tsuda Nao stared into Qing Zhiyuan's eyes with a smile, and smiled, "You can, the words you use now are very exciting."

"What I said is true. For me," Qing Zhiyuan didn't plan to give her time to cool down, and took advantage of the victory to pursue, "summer is, fireworks, bathrobe and you."

Qing Zhiyuan uttered Tomohisa Yamashita's famous lines.

"I don't believe it." Tsuda Nao glared at him coquettishly.

However, when looking at his infinitely lingering eyes, I suddenly felt that my heart beat faster.

"Kiss me." Qing Zhiyuan said in a commanding tone.

"Shouldn't boys take the initiative at this time?" Nao Tsuda resigned.

"Didn't you see that I was squeezed?" Qing Zhiyuan said angrily, "I can't lower my head."

"Idiot~"

Nao Tsuda scolded softly, approached him holding hands, and stood on tiptoe.
