Cute new Two-dimensional life record

The commission of Zai Muzao has been successfully completed, and at the same time, it has given the fat man a foundation to continue to create, which can be said to be gratifying.

On the way back, after bidding farewell to Hikigaya, Yuhihama, and Zaimoza, Yukinoshita Yukino and Xuehui were left on the road. There was no way, Yukinoshita Yukino moved out to live alone now. The younger generation has to take care of the older single female teacher at home. The destination of the two is the same, the supermarket.

This is the first time for Xuehui to go with Yukinoshita since he joined the service department.Yukino under the snow was relatively cold, and Xue Hui didn't know what to say, the air seemed to freeze for a while.

After walking for a while, Yukinoshita Yukino finally spoke first: "I never thought that you would prepare such a thing."

"After all, you are so serious, I can't always do nothing, can't I? To be honest, if Zai Muzao said that he didn't want to write light novels at that time, then I wouldn't show it. In the end, it's that guy I have the heart to pursue, I can at most let him avoid detours." Xue Hui shook his head and said.

Although Zaimuza is a junior high school student, he is a junior high school student with ideals. Even a guy like Hikiya Hachiman admires him a lot, so it's no big deal to help him out.

Although Xuehui said so, Yukinoshita didn't think so. She lowered her head and said calmly: "Although it was the same commission, I didn't think about it. After pointing out the other party's shortcomings, I didn't respond accordingly." Measures, this is my dereliction of duty."

"You can't say that. After all, Zai Muzao's commission was for us to express our feelings about his novel. What you are doing is your own job. Compared with the content of the commission, I am actually not doing my job properly. What you have done has already Very good, much better than most people, no one can deny this." Xue Hui stood in front of Yukinoshita Yukino, looked at the other person's raised face and said, "My impression of Yukinoshita Yukino But the calm, self-confident appearance is not the current appearance of a little girl who gets lost when encountering something."

"..." Yukino looked at Xue Hui's pupils reflecting his own appearance, and said after a few seconds of silence, "You are blocking the way."

Stepping forward, Yukinoshita raised the corners of Yukinoshita's mouth slightly at an angle that the other party could not see.

So hot and so sleepy, I feel like I have lost motivation in life.

Chapter 15 The weekend is coming

Afterwards, there was no such thing as in youth novels, where the hero and heroine go together and are discovered and misunderstood by classmates in the class or school. The two bought the ingredients they needed, and after paying their bills, they separated at the entrance of the supermarket. .

The only difference is that Xuehui buys more meat and less vegetables, but Xue Nai buys more vegetables and less meat.

After another day of doing nothing at school, Xuehui finally waited until the weekend to meet with the editor of Kadokawa Bunko.

Because it was the weekend, and because I was an acquaintance of Shizuka Hiratsuka, the time I chose was relatively random in the afternoon.

After having lunch at home, Xuehui was forced by Shizuka Hiratsuka to change into a slim shirt that would accentuate her figure, and then she was pushed on a chair and let the other party comb her hair.

"Let me tell you, do you need to look like this? Isn't the other party an acquaintance of yours, Miss Jing?" Xuehui said with an uncomfortable expression as he felt Hiratsuka Jing's slender and strong fingers constantly playing tricks on his hair.

"If it's just the other party, then it's okay, but I heard that she will bring an author under her hand, and the other party seems to be the winner of the last Kadokawa Newcomer Award. Although I don't know who it is, but you It’s always right to tidy up for me, do those who can’t lose me know?”

"Yes, yes, I understand..." Xuehui nodded helplessly, but was immediately held down by Shizuka Hiratsuka again.

"The last rookie award...it shouldn't be such a coincidence..."

After tidying up, Xue Hui looked at his basically unchanged hairstyle, and couldn't understand why Hiratsuka Shizuka took so much time before being dragged into the car, and the clutch and accelerator were activated in one go.

Although Kadokawa's headquarters is in Chiyoda District, Tokyo, but because the meeting place this time is a private meeting, it will be in the urban area of ​​Chiba at that time.

Driving to the business district, the two came to a cafe on the street. They had already received news that the other party had come.

"I have an appointment with Ms. Machida, she should have arrived." Entering the store, Shizuka Hiratsuka said to the waiter.

'Tsk, I knew it. '

Hearing Shizuka Hiratsuka say the editor's name, and adding that he had found it earlier, Xue Hui felt that his guess was pretty close.

Led by the waiter, the two came to a seat for four inside, one side was already occupied by a figure.

"Ah, it's finally here. I have to say that it's great to have such a good classmate as you, Xiaojing. Remember to help me find a potential author. Is this handsome guy? Or your cousin? Hurry up and sit down." Come on." The short-haired beauty in a black dress looked at Xue Hui with surprise on her face.

"I remember what you said, treat me to dinner." After sitting down, Shizuka Hiratsuka put forward conditions to the other party bluntly, and then said to Xue Hui, "Here, this inconspicuous woman is my college classmate, and now she is in Kadokawa. Wenku is an editor, I showed her the first three chapters of your novel, and she is very interested in signing a contract with you."

"Hello, I'm Sonoko Machida, the editor of Kadokawa." The woman introduced herself.

"Hello Editor Machida, I'm Hiratsuka Yuki." Xuehui introduced himself calmly.

After observing Xuehui up and down, Machida Sonoko sighed: "I don't understand the world more and more. Are high school students these days monsters? I really didn't expect such an excellent and innovative novel to be Mr. Xuehui, you wrote it."

"You're too good, Editor Machida." Xuehui smiled slightly. He had done the investigation before Juejian moved out of Sword Art Online, so it can be said that he was sure of everything.

"You don't need to be so different, your cousin and I are classmates and friends, just call me Sister Yuanzi from now on."

"Sister Yuanzi." Xue Hui didn't refuse, and called out directly.

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Machida Sonoko's eyes that were staring at Xuehui and then sparkled, and somehow felt creepy, and immediately said: "Sonoko, didn't you say you want to bring one of your writers with you, man?"

"Oh, this, I called before, it should be here soon, there is no way, it takes time for girls to dress up." Machida Sonoko responded and replied.

"Girl?" Hiratsuka Shizuka was a little surprised, judging from the other party's tone, she seemed quite young?

"Yes, the other party is also a high school student, and she happens to be from Sobu High School, but she asked us to keep her identity a secret, so not many people know about it." Sonoko Machida looked around, and then became excited Raise your hand, "Ah, Xiaoshi~here~~"

Following Machida Yuanko's line of sight, Xuehui saw which author she was talking about.

Wearing a white suspender dress, with bare white arms, beautiful long black hair, exquisite makeup, and swaying legs wrapped in a pair of black translucent stockings on the lower body, it attracts the attention of male customers in the store.

'A woman who knows how to show her charm. '

Xue Hui's evaluation made him truly recognize this person's identity.

Kasumigaoka Shiwa, one of the heroines among passerby heroines, is a third-year student at Sobu High in this world, a girl who overlaps with Yukinoshita Yukino in some attributes.

If you really want to compare, in Xuehui's eyes, Yukinoshita Yukino is a little more beautiful, but Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's figure is better, or more than a little bit better.

It's also fortunate that this woman is not a second grader like Yukinoshita Yukino, otherwise there would be no good development when the two meet.

The war between the poor and the rich has existed since ancient times.

"Sister Yuanzi, can you stop being so loud, do you think I won't be able to see you?" Under the eyes of several people, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu came to sit next to Machida Yuanzi, who happened to be sitting opposite Xuehui.

"Hi, Mr. Hiratsuka, I'm Kasumigaoka Shiwa." Kasumigaoka Shiwa was still very polite, Machida Sonoko also told her who it was before, and she knew this teacher who was also a well-known person in school .

As for why famous?

Last year, Shizuka Hiratsuka witnessed a few punks molesting a girl in the school outside the school after school, and they even used hands and feet. This kind of thing is the most unbelievable kind of thing. Calm directly went up and used fighting skills to beat up a few punks After entering the hospital, he immediately became famous among the students of these classes.

Haven't you seen that there are no bad guys and gangsters around Zongwu High now?

Shizuka Hiratsuka's name is much more useful than a security guard or something.

Ah, I always feel a little sad.

"Kasumigaoka Shiwa?" Hiratsuka Shizu looked at this gorgeous girl in surprise. Kasumigaoka Shiwa is still very popular in Sobu High School, and her grades are also top-notch, although Sobu High School's rankings are not made public. Policy, but the top few people, everyone still knows more or less.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu's student Shizu Hiratsuka didn't come into contact with it, but she still heard from some teachers that the other party was excellent, and it was a bit of a headache to sleep in class, but she didn't care about the other party's excellent grades. After all, geniuses have some privileges, don't they?

"Xiaoshi, I told you. I am very optimistic about Mr. Xuehui's novels. If it hadn't been for a while before the awards start, I think he would definitely win the gold award like you did last time!" Machida Sonoko said to Kasumigaoka Shiwa, causing the girl to look at Xuehui in surprise.

Although Sonoko Machida told her that she had discovered another talented high school student writer, Kasumigaoka Shiwa didn't take it too seriously. Only she knew how much effort she had put in from the Rookie Award to this step.

Looking at Xuehui, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu smiled and said: "I really didn't expect that the person that Sister Yuan Zi told me would be my junior."

Under the seemingly beautiful smile, this trace of scrutiny of Xue Hui.

Chapter 16 Surprised

"Senior miss, you are my senior in this respect, and I still need to ask you for more advice." Xuehui's modest attitude made Kasumigaoka Shiwa very satisfied. I originally thought that Machida Sonoko would be the one who made such an evaluation. A proud guy, but I didn't expect it to be so easy to contact.

Is it pretend?

"Sister Yuan Zi has praised you very much. I also want to read novels by writers of the same generation this time. I don't know if I can?" Kasumigaoka Shiwa said so, Machida Yuanzi only had the top three books given by Shizuka Hiratsuka. The content of the chapter, and Machida Sonoko, who has professional ethics, did not show the manuscript to Kasumigaoka Shiwa, who is not a member of the company, without the consent of the original author, so she can only come here in person.

"Yes, yes, the original manuscript!!!" Machida Sonoko remembered her purpose this time, as long as the quality of the novel content of the other party is still the same, she immediately signed the contract. She has already read the content of the first three chapters to the editor-in-chief. The other party also gave her an order to sign the author.

Under the urging of Machida Sonoko, Hiratsuka Shizuka handed the two printed manuscripts to Machida Sonoko and Kasumigaoka Shiwa, and then belatedly called the waiter to order.

After a while, the drinks were brought up. Xuehui was drinking iced coffee casually, looking at the person who was focusing on the original manuscript of the novel in front of him, while Shizuka Hiratsuka was flipping through her phone boredly. They just came as an escort, and it didn't work, or it could be said that everything was already a sure thing.

Sonoko Machida had read the content of three chapters before, so after receiving the manuscript, she turned a few pages and read it next.

It was the first time for Kasumigaoka Shiu to read Xuehui's novel. The title [Sword Art Online] was the first thing that caught her eyes. She didn't put a pen name on it, but directly used the name Hiratsuka Yuki. She probably didn't think about it yet. Good pseudonym relationship.

'Battle novels? '

Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu thought so, this is a completely different kind of novel from her novels, although she usually reads some novels of this type to enrich her knowledge, but to be honest, fighting novels are not her Cai, she is not good at writing such novels.

But after reading it, she was a little surprised. Although it is true that it is about combat, to be precise, what Xue Hui wrote is an online game novel, and it is the kind of novel that is ahead of schedule. Theoretical full stealth MMO novel.

There wasn't much that fascinated her at the beginning of Chapter 1, but after reading it slowly, she discovered the first breaking point of the novel.

Death Game.

All players are locked in this virtual reality game called VR and cannot exit the game. As long as they die in the game or forcefully unplug the connection outside the game, the player will be killed by the microwave device in the game helmet to destroy the brain.

If you want to escape, you can only go through the strategy game layer by layer until you reach the 100th floor and defeat the final boss.

It is not a simple game world, but a real world in which players will die. Players' despair, hope, struggle, failure, and conflicts, etc., can all be well understood through this world. displayed.

It's a game, but it's not just a game, it's a story of these characters struggling to survive in this world.

Alternative ideas and a completely different style from the past made Kasumigaoka Shiyu involuntarily fascinated by this fantasy world. Her eyes moved continuously with the text, and her hands involuntarily turned back page by page. She desperately wanted to To know what happened next.

With the passage of time, Xuehui has discovered that Xiazhiqiu Shiyu in front of him has been completely addicted to it.

Suddenly, he felt a slight tremor on the ground.

"Earthquake? No, could it be..." Xue Hui was slightly taken aback, looking at the girl in front of him.

This woman seems to have a problem with shaking legs?Xue Hui, who used to shake his legs while listening to extremely toxic songs, could clearly determine the source of this trembling.

Looking at Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's staring eyes, Xuehui could see that her heart was not at peace. Well, I guess it was in the middle of the first volume. The appearance time in the first volume was very short, but yes The protagonist's development played a major role in promoting the character, fortunately.

Fortunately, this story is written in reverse order. The first part was still having sex with Asuna, and the dark history was directly revealed in the latter part. He couldn't stand such a sudden change when he read the original work.

On the other hand, Machida Sonoko, who has been tried and tested as an editor, performed much better, she didn't show much expression, but the emotion that appeared in her eyes from time to time still made Xuehui feel relieved.

The reading speed of these two is not slow. After drinking a cup of coffee, they flipped through their mobile phones to read the recent industry news. After watching those netizens complaining about the latest new episodes on the forum, Machida Sonoko and Kasumigaoka Shiwa put down their manuscripts one after another. .

"Huh..." Machida Sonoko looked at Xuehui and said with a soft breath, "I wanted to see if there was anything that needed to be revised in the first volume. It seems that I was thinking too much. But I have question."

"Sister Yuanzi, please tell me."

"The time span of the first volume is about two years. There should be a lot of stories to write in it, but Mr. Xuehui, you simply skipped it. Moreover, the characters appearing on the stage feel a little less." Yuanzi said directly Out of the doubts in my heart.

Xue Hui smiled, and said indifferently: "These are not problems. I have already thought about the content of it. The main characters who will appear in the future stories will appear in the second volume. I did not put them in the first volume." The main problem is the length of the volume, the stories of several main characters will directly consume the content of a volume, so the first volume can only focus on the main line."

"That's not a problem." Sonoko Machida nodded and said, "However, the story of this game of death is over in just two volumes. As a light novel, if it is going to be popular, isn't there a little less content?"

Xue Hui stretched out a finger and shook it, and said: "Although this world is over, the problems in it will continue to the end, and will be interspersed to the end of the whole story, so the problem of space is not a problem, as long as you can After signing the contract for publication, the follow-up content will naturally unfold smoothly.”

"It seems that Xuehui-kun is very confident?" Machida Sonoko looked at him with a smile.

"I still have some confidence in my story." Xue Hui is not humble either, he is indeed full of confidence in this novel.

Nodding, Machida Sonoko looked at Kasumigaoka Shiyu beside her and said, "Xiaoshi, you've finished reading it too, so you can tell me what you think."

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu looked at the manuscript in his hand, paused and said: "This is the first time I have seen this type of light novel. The creativity, writing style, and plot control are all excellent. I am looking forward to the publication of this novel." that day. But..."

Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu deliberately paused, looked at Xue Hui and said: "I didn't expect my junior to like to play different things so much. In the first volume, a female character was written to death, and she was also a very attractive character."

"Cough...well, the plot needs the plot." Xue Hui explained with some embarrassment.Indeed, in the light novels in this world in recent years, it is rare to directly write the girl to death, even if it is not a harem, but at least it is to surround the protagonist, unlike Xue Hui, who has obviously developed to a certain degree with the protagonist. relationship, and it turns out that death is death.

"Well, the plot needs it. Although it's right to do this, I still don't want such an important supporting actress to die in the future. Readers these days are very fragile." Said Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, let Xue Hui I am ashamed.

At this time, Sonoko Machida took over the words: "The content of the novel is completely fine, no problem, and even exceeded my expectations, then Yuki-kun, I sincerely invite you to sign a contract with Kadokawa Bunko, and we will be in charge of your novel Is it possible to publish and distribute it?"

Xue Hui did not hesitate, and agreed at all points: "Of course, I am also very happy to be able to cooperate with such professional editors as Kadokawa Bunko and Sister Yuan Zi."

The goal of signing the contract was finally achieved.

Chapter 17 The Difficult Person

"Hmph~ That's really great. Apart from Xiaoshi, I have another ace writer. Congratulations. By the way, Xuehui-kun, you and Xiaoshi will be considered colleagues in the future. Yes, and I’m a student at the same school again, so we need to communicate more in the future. It just so happens that Xiaoshi’s novel debuted in the third volume, and she is currently working on the fourth and fifth volumes. I also want you to help me come up with ideas."

Hearing what Machida Sonoko said, Xuehui was stunned for a moment, it was difficult because:

He has never read Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's novels!

Although the novel "Love Metronome" published by Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu under the pseudonym "Xia Shizi" is very popular on the Internet, but because it is a youth love novel, Xue Hui, who is completely hard at this type of novel I never thought about what to see.

As a result, what he was afraid of would happen today, and he directly hit Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's muzzle.

Seeing Xue Hui's embarrassed face, Kasumi Oka Shiyu showed a dangerous smile on his brisk and happy face: "Schoolmate, although I haven't said it all the time, you should know my pen name."

"Uh... Well, Sister Yuanzi said that senior sister, you were the gold medal in the Kadokawa Newcomer Award last time. I also checked a little bit of Kadokawa's information before, so I already know that senior sister is Teacher Xia Shizi."

"That's it..." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu still looked at Xuehui with half-closed eyes, "I feel ashamed that Xuedijun's novels are so well written, and I know a lot about light novels, right? Do you know what types of novels you like to read..."

"Cough...Sister, you don't need to talk anymore, so what, I really haven't read your novels. I haven't read any love novels in the past, and they are not in the category of personal preferences. " Facing Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's creepy smile, Xuehui didn't bother to talk about it anymore, isn't it just anus?What's there to be afraid of?

It's a big deal to admit cowardly!

Is it bad to live?
