Hikigaya Hachiman Will Also Become a Current Charge

He nodded towards Hachiman as a greeting.

Hachiman also nodded to express his response, and then the silence continued. After all, neither of them is the type who is good at speaking actively, and the two of them don't know each other.

Through the glass in the living room, he could clearly see the editorial department on the opposite side. The staff seemed very busy coming and going, and it was obvious that they would have to wait for a while.

Thinking of this, Hachiman picked up his mobile phone and started playing games.

The world is not fair, everyone has a different life.

Lucky people are born at the apex of many people, and then go smoothly along the way without any setbacks, and then climb to a higher end.

Ordinary people live like this day after day, working busy for their families, parents, and children.

But whether you are a lucky person or an ordinary person, the prosperity during your lifetime is nothing, and the last little box is your forever home.

.........

After playing in Yawata for an hour, a short-haired beauty in an OL suit opened the door of the living room and walked in.

The capable short hair swayed slightly as she walked, and although her delicate face was not as good as Kasumigaoka Shiyu's, she had a mature temperament that Shiyu didn't have. Generally speaking, she was not inferior to Kasumigaoka's beauty.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm so busy today, I've kept you waiting, I'm Machida Sonoko, the editor in charge of you!" The visitor said embarrassedly to Hachiman and Kasumigaoka Shiwa.

"It's okay, and I haven't waited too long. I'm Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, and I'll trouble you next."

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu shook her head, expressing her indifference.

"Understood! I understand. I'm Hikigu Hachiman, and it's thanks to you to review our novel in your busy schedule." Hachiman also expressed his indifference, and glanced at the beautiful editor in front of him.

Tsk tsk, black silk, uniforms, seniors, I have to say that it is still very tempting in some ways, but he has no interest now, and the most important thing now is to pass the review of the novel.

"Thank you for your understanding, do you have anything you want to drink?" Machida Sonoko asked the two with a smile.

"coffee."

"Cafe!"

The two spoke almost simultaneously.

"Okay, no problem!" Sonoko Machida sent three cups of coffee over, and then looked at Yawata and Shiwa, "Then we don't waste time, who will start the work of the two first?"

"Ladies first, let Ms. Kasumigaoka come first!"

With the beauty in front, Hachiman naturally wants to show his gentlemanly spirit, and Kasumigaoka Shiwa did come before him, first come first and then later.

"Okay, editor Machida, please read, this is my novel!" Kasumigaoka Shiwa nodded, took out the manuscript from the folder and handed it to Machida Sonoko.

"Love metronome, romance novel?" After receiving the manuscript, Machida Sonoko stopped talking nonsense and went straight to work, browsing quickly.

As an editor who has worked for a long time, Machida Sonoko has already mastered the skill of fast reading, and it only took half an hour for her to read through the thick manuscript.

After reading the manuscript, Sonoko Machida closed his eyes and recalled for a while, and after a while, opened his eyes and looked at Kasumigaoka Shiwa.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu also straightened her posture, because the moment to decide the fate of her novel is coming soon.

"Miss Kasumigaoka has never been in a relationship, right?" Machida Sonoko asked a question first without immediately commenting on the novel.

"Yes!" Xiazhiqiu Shiyu nodded strangely, not understanding why she would ask such a question. Could it be that one can't write romance novels without being in love?

"How should I say it?" Sonoko Machida organized the language, "Although the description of the text is very beautiful, and the sugar distribution is also very good, the plot still seems a bit too plain."

"Is that so? I see." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu was a little disappointed when she heard this, obviously she thought her novel had not passed the review.

"But this aspect can be improved. I have confidence in Ms. Kasumigaoka."

Just when Kasumigaoka Shiwa thought she had failed, Sonoko Machida changed the subject, "Your novel has met the requirements for publication."

"really?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu was a little surprised by the sudden reversal.

"Of course, as long as a twist can be added to the ending of the first volume, I believe there will be a good response." As an editor, Sonoko Machida also gave Kasumigaoka Shiwa a suggestion for reference.

Looking at Shiwa who was lost in thought, Sonoko Machida put down the manuscript in her hand, turned her head to look at Hachiman and said, "Then the next thing is Mr. Hikiya's work."

"Of course, this is my work, please have a look." Hachiman said as he handed over his manuscript.

"Sword Art Online? Another world type?"

After seeing the name, Sonoko Machida subconsciously thought it was a novel from another world, so she didn't talk nonsense and started working again.

"Virtual Reality...Death Game...Strike Team...Salvation...."

Slowly, Machida Sonoko immersed herself in the world of words, and this time she was obviously more impressed than the previous one.

About an hour later, Machida Sonoko put down the manuscript in her hand, closed her eyes and thought about it, and looked at Hachiman after exhaling.

"What's the matter? Editor Machida, is it my novel that is not good?" Sensing her gaze, Hachiman also felt a little rewarded.

"No, on the contrary, it can be said to be quite good." Hearing what Yawata said, Sonoko Machida shook her head, "It has fully met the publishing requirements."

Chapter 008: Novel contract

Do all of you editors like to talk like this? It’s a big breath.

Hachiman's expression is a little helpless, since I wrote it well, you shouldn't put on such a serious expression, it's scary, okay?

"Then editor Machida, can my work be signed?" After hesitating for a while, Hachiman asked tentatively.

"Of course, Kadokawa will not let go of such an excellent work. Mr. Hikigaya, Ms. Kasumigaoka, wait a moment, I will prepare the contract right away." Sonoko Machida smiled at the two of them, and got up to prepare the contract. up.

For a while, only Kasumigaoka Shiwa and Hachiman were left in the living room.

She was still as silent as before, but at this moment Shiwa looked at Hachiman with a trace of curiosity. She never thought that something written by this guy with strange eyes would get such a high evaluation.

From the words of the Machida editor, one can understand that this guy's work is more than a little bit better than his own. I didn't expect a guy who was younger than me to be so much better than me.

This made Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, who had been a talented girl since she was a child, a little unconvinced.

Not long after, Machida Sonoko returned to the living room with two contracts.

"Okay, here is the contract for the two of you, you can take a look at it first." Machida Sonoko distributed the contract in his hand to the two of them.

Hachiman looked at the contract in his hand, found the part and nodded.

Regardless of the fact that the manuscript fee is only 12%, you must know that physical novels and online novels are completely different. Whether it is printing or publicity, the library takes a lot of risks. For a new author, 12% is already quite good.

Moreover, the two own the copyright, which means that no matter whether it is adapted into a manga or animation in the future, both of them can get a share again.

After simply reading the contract, neither of them felt that there was any problem, so they signed their names with a pen, and then handed the contract back to Sonoko Machida.

"Okay, congratulations on the successful signing of the contract. You need to prepare a pseudonym. Of course, you can also use your own name." After accepting the contract, Machida Sonoko said.

"Pseudonym? Then use Da Teacher!"

After thinking about it, Hachiman decided to use this as his pseudonym, after all, Hikigu Hachiman in his previous life was called the Great Teacher.

"Then my pen name should be Xia Shizi." Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu beside her also decided on a pen name.

"Big teacher? Xia Shizi? No problem." Machida Sonoko nodded, a pseudonym or something, as long as it's not too much.

"By the way, the library will also register a Kadokawa blog account for you. Remember to manage your own account when the time comes." Sonoko Machida reminded.

"Understood!" Hachiman and the two nodded.

After accepting the contract, Machida Sonoko looked at the time, and it was past twelve o'clock, "It's already this time, you must be hungry, I invite you to eat!"

"This...would it cost editor Machida too much?" Hachiman hesitated.

"It's okay, it's okay, it can be reimbursed." Sonoko Machida patted Hachiman's shoulder with a smile, then turned to invite Kasumigaoka Shiwa, "Miss Kasumigaoka, please come along."

"Editor Machida can call me Shiwa, thank you." Kasumigaoka Shiwa also nodded.

"Let's go! Let's go! I'll take you to eat delicious food!" Seeing the two agreeing, Machida Sonoko said with a smile.

When the three of them walked out of the Kadokawa building, Komachi who was in the shade immediately ran towards them.

"Oni-chan!" Komachi shouted at Hachiman.

"Komachi? Why are you here?" Seeing his sister, Hachiman was a little dazed, he couldn't imagine why Komachi was here.

"That... Hehe, I followed Oni-chan." Komachi was a little embarrassed.

"What?!" Hachiman yelled, a little annoyed.

"How can you come to Tokyo alone, what if you encounter any danger along the way!"

If something really happened to Komachi, how would he explain it to his parents!

"Komachi, I know I was wrong." Seeing that Hachiman was really angry, Komachi shrank his neck, "And it's not because Oni-chan has been secretive all day long and hasn't told me, I'm worried about you! "

"You... hey!" Hearing Komachi's words, Hachiman was a little helpless, opened his mouth to say something, and finally sighed. In the end, it was because Komachi was worried about him.

He stretched out his hand and rubbed Komachi's head, "This time it's my fault, don't do it next time."

"Yeah, Komachi knows." Seeing that Hachiman was no longer angry, Komachi smiled happily.

"I'm sorry, Editor Machida, this is my younger sister Komachi, who followed me to Tokyo today." Pulling Komachi, Hachiman said to Machida Sonoko with some embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter, the relationship between you brothers and sisters is really good!" Machida Sonoko, who watched from the side and probably understood the cause and effect, smiled, "Since she is your sister Yawata, let's go have dinner together."

Shi Yu on the side also looked at this scene with some envy. As an only child, she couldn't understand their brother-sister relationship at all.

"Then I'll trouble Editor Machida." Hachiman was a little embarrassed, and there was one more person to eat, but there was nothing he could do. Komachi must have not eaten yet. As a qualified Chiba person, he couldn't leave Komachi alone. People throw it here!

"No trouble, no trouble, reimbursement at public expense!" Machida Sonoko said with a smile on her face.

The four of them got into Machida Sonoko's car, and soon came to a restaurant that didn't look too big.

"Don't think this restaurant is small, but the taste of his restaurant is not to mention." Several people got out of the car, and Machida Sonoko introduced to the three of Yawata with a mysterious face.

Looking at the small restaurant with a small area, Hachiman had a strange expression on his face, because the name of this restaurant was Xinghei Restaurant.

That's right, it is the restaurant run by the male lead Soma Yukira and his father Seiichiro Kohei in The Spirit of the Halberd Eater.

"Oni-chan, what's the matter with you?" Seeing the expression on his face, Komachi asked a little strangely.

"It's okay, I was just thinking about something." Shaking his head, Hachiman said he was fine.

But with the matter of the senior sister, he is not so surprised, maybe this is Zongman!

I just don’t know what characters will appear in the future, but I hope there will be no characters from the world of high martial arts. If there is a Supassaya or something, the earth king will explode at every turn, then I can’t play it anymore.
