I Just Want to Be an Ordinary Writer

Kira Yoshikage turned her gaze to Kirihara Misaki's hand, her fingertips and tiger's mouth had calluses, and the movement of sweating on the hem of her clothes indicated that she was a little nervous.But her body wasn't stiff, which meant that the situation was still within her control.

So......

Question 1: How would a [19-year-old freshman student] who witnessed the crime scene but did not fulfill the obligation of "informed reporting" be interviewed?

The answer is - children who have just entered college have low social experience, and will instinctively feel guilty, and they will be full of flaws from the perspective of adults.

Kira Yoshikage withdrew his gaze and looked at Misaki Kirihara with a cautious look: "Officer Kirihara..."

He eagerly walked up to Misaki Kirihara, raised his volume slightly to speed up his speech: "This matter has nothing to do with me! I'm just an ordinary student! Please believe me!"

"Jirana-kun, don't worry!"

Kirihara Misaki squinted at Kira Yoshikage's dodging gaze, then got up and patted his arm to signal him to sit down.

She quickly found the most suitable way of interrogation, and said softly: "I'm just doing some routine inquiries, and I don't really doubt you. Don't be nervous, okay?"

Seeing Kira Yoshikage nodding to herself with a sigh of relief, she lowered her face and said softly, "Kirara-kun, I want to know when you started writing this book."

"About two months ago."

"I just read your previous submissions, which are basically short stories about youth and daily life. Why did you suddenly turn to reasoning?" Misaki Kirihara's spectacle lenses were slightly reflective, staring at Kira Yoshikage:

"I've seen The Rose Hunter, and the style of writing is completely different from the past. If your previous work was light-hearted and lively, this one is full of hatred and madness from the inside out. Tell me why this shift is ?"

Kira Yoshikage squinted his eyes, and his eyes flickered when he raised his head, looking at Kishimoto Castle.

Misaki Kirihara noticed immediately, turned his head and said, "Mr. Kishimoto, I want to chat with Kira-kun alone for a while."

"This..." Kishimoto City looked at Kira Yoshikage in embarrassment. He was very worried that Kira Yoshikage would leave a shadow because of this cross-examination. You must know that the people of the Metropolitan Police Department have already been arrested by this order. The panic-stricken case is driving me crazy.

Kira Yoshikage shook his head at him and tried his best to smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Kishimoto, I'm fine."

After speaking, he nodded towards Kishimotojo and watched him walk out of the living room.

Well, now it's just the two of them in the living room.

Question 2: Why do you think about him?

Because he [must] show a fluke, a 19-year-old freshman is technically no different from a senior in high school, and he should worry about being blamed.

Ji Liang Yoshikage lowered his head again and said in a low voice: "I just think some changes should be made, because I have been shot twice before "Rose Hunter"."

"So you suddenly understood the perpetrator's mind like a god, and wrote something like this from the criminal's first point of view?"

"...it's just ordinary writing skills, plus references to similar works, it's not difficult."

"Snapped!----"

Misaki Kirihara suddenly slammed on the table and said sternly: "So will similar works tell you the modus operandi of this serial murder case?! More than 70% of the details in the book are exactly the same as the unpublished crime scene of the task force. , is this also what similar works told you?!"

Kirahara Misaki didn't give Kira Yoshikage a moment's respite, opened the "Rose Hunter" that had already been labeled on the side, and quickly said:

"Here!' When she nailed the iron awl into the man's palm, the splash of blood made her tremble. She always had a smile on her face, tilted her head and said innocently: 'There are three more~''"

"And here!" After doing everything, she was suddenly no longer happy, just staring at the man's unrested eyes with a dull look. She carefully placed the rose plucked from the garden between the man's crotch, and then revealed pity face'"

"This way! 'She....'"

"Here, here, these! All similar works told you?!"

Looking at Kira Yoshikage from Misaki Kirihara's point of view, she could neither see Kira Yoshikage's slightly boring expression due to the questioning, nor could she notice Kira Yoshikage's slightly raised lips.

She only saw Kira Yoshikage take a deep breath, her shoulders began to tremble, and then she raised her head.

Kira Yoshihage's eyes were bloodshot and wet, and after moving his lips, he seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then said: "I... the scene... I saw, saw the scene! I... . Officer Kirihara!"

Question 3: Since you always have to confess, why do you have to go around in circles for two months?

Because Yoshikage Kira didn't want to sign the nondisclosure agreement on the case before the novel was confirmed.

Kira Yoshikage violently held Kirihara Misaki's hand, pouting her lips slightly because of the thin calluses on her hand, and then said eagerly and flustered: "You can't tell others! I saw the scene... She will ...she will kill me!"

Question 4: Why deny first and then admit?

Because he was always a "normal" "eyewitness", his heartfelt fear would be silenced by the murderer, so much so that he didn't even have the courage to call the police, but was eager to protect himself.But when faced with authoritative evidence, he [needs] to start the first round of disintegration.

Last question -

Kirihara Misaki looked moved, looked at the young man in front of him who seemed to be crushed by an invisible weight, sighed and finally slowed down his tone, and asked:

"Then why did you write it?"

Because ordinary people will feel guilty - when the number of victims continues to increase, he/she will inevitably have self-blame in his/her heart.Even if he never took the step of calling the police in order to protect himself, his heart would be extremely tormented by this secret.If he/she is kind enough, he/she may feel that he/she is an accomplice.At this time, proper venting will be especially important.

Ji Liang Yoshikage slumped back on the back of the chair, covered his face with his hands, and whispered: "I... I can't keep this secret, but I dare not call the police... "

In line with the characteristics of most juvenile witnesses of massacres, he has a certain degree of stress disorder - after making the judgment, Kirihara Misaki sighed, and looked at Kira Yoshikage's slightly trembling shoulders with distress.

——To be honest, Kira Yoshikage was about to laugh.

Misaki Kirihara remembered the bloodshot eyes in Kira Yoshikage's eyes, and couldn't bear to think: If he hadn't seen that scene, maybe he would have slept well for the next two months.

"Kirara-kun..." Misaki Kira patted Yoshikage Kira on the back, and asked softly, "After you have stabilized, can you take a note in the hall?"

"......Um."

Yoshikage Kira walked out of the building of the publishing house, and after passing two blocks, he looked at the pedestrians, vehicles, and cars parked on the side of the road.After confirming that everything was normal, he raised his hand and took off the newly bought contact lenses in his eyes and threw them into the trash can, blinking.
