"Okay, sure enough, little Ayase is really cute, and she will definitely fascinate everyone today." Aragaki Haruka said with a smile, stroking her cheek with her palm, as if she had fallen into her own fantasy.

"So, it's just an ordinary celebration party. After the speech is over, if there is nothing else, I will leave. There is no such possibility as you mentioned, and there is no chance." Ayase flatly vetoed it Haruka Aragaki's words.

Aragaki Haruka pouted, protesting against her daughter's unlovable words and deeds.Then she thought of something else, her eyes suddenly brightened, she pulled Ayase and walked towards the mirror.

"Come on, let's see how this look looks like, are you satisfied?" Aragaki Haruka looked like a door-to-door salesman, with an exaggerated tone.

Although she was a bit reluctant at first, after being tossed about for so long, some expectations have faintly risen in Ayase's heart - of course, she will never admit it.

"Well, really, just take a look." Ayase said reluctantly, sat down in front of the dressing table, and looked into the mirror.

then……

"How? How?" Aragaki Haruka asked anxiously.

"Uh..." Ayase twitched the corners of her mouth, and asked with a confused face, "Do you have any makeup?"

After hearing her words, Haruka Aragaki felt as if struck by lightning, and was distraught, and asked in a trembling voice, "Can't you see it, Ayase?"

Ayase shook her head, it wasn't that she was being modest, it was actually herself in the mirror in front of her, which seemed to be the same as usual.

At most, it's the dark circles under the eyes that I've been too busy recently, which are covered a little lighter, the skin is a little whiter, the cheeks are a little red, and nothing else can be seen.

"You..." Aragaki took a deep breath, and then asked like a cannonball: "Eyelashes, lip color, eyebrows, haven't you noticed any difference from before?"

Ayase held her breath again, looked at herself in the mirror seriously, and then shook her head at Haruka Aragaki blankly again.

"I really don't see the difference from before." Ayase didn't lie, in her eyes, she seemed to be about the same as usual.

"I'm so pissed off!" Aragaki Haruka hated that iron could not be made into steel, and stretched out his hand to flick Ayase's brain, "Why do I have such a stupid daughter like you?"

Realizing that he was playing the piano against a cow, Haruka Aragaki said angrily: "When you come back this time, go and learn makeup skills for me."

"Uh, there's no need..." Ayase squeezed out a smile with difficulty, and looked at Haruka Aragaki flatteringly.

It's just that her flattering behavior was completely ignored by Haruka Aragaki.

Ten minutes later, Ayase was sent out of the house by Haruka Aragaki with a look of disgust.

"Then I'm leaving." Ayase smiled and waved her hands, not paying attention to her mother's eyes.

Although what the other party said was very strict, and there was nothing "must be implemented", but after getting along for so long, Ayase had already figured out the character of Haruka Aragaki. It will be cancelled.

If that doesn't work...

Well, anyway, Yan Ye and Tong Nao are both proficient in makeup techniques, so I will say that I will ask them for counseling, and then I will collude with them in advance, and Aragaki Haruka will forget about it after a while.

While Ayase was thinking about these things, the train she was on also arrived at Shinjuku Station.

After walking out of the station, Ayase did not take the usual direct route to Dengeki Bunko Building, but chose another route.

The venue for the celebration was a city hotel located 20 minutes on foot from the Dengeki Bunko Building.

Shinjuku Station just formed a triangle with the two, so in order to save time (in fact, to go out later and sleep in at home more late), Ayase declined the invitation of Editor Tomoken to go to the library building first.

——It was absolutely not that she was afraid that as soon as she entered the Dengeki library building, five hundred knives and axes would throw cups and lock her in a small black room dedicated to underground codes.

But this time the banquet was held on the second basement floor of the city hotel, so it could be regarded as another form of "small black room".

When Ayase arrived at the hotel, a banner had already been hung outside, "The 13th Dengeki Bunko Newcomer Awards Banquet"

Such banners can be seen from entering the hotel, and road signs are specially placed in the lobby to remind people who do not know the way.

Following the signs, Ayase soon arrived at the large underground banquet hall.

This place has been decorated by Dengeki Bunko's operation department and the hotel staff.

As soon as you enter, you can see the huge background board, and the official name of this banquet: the 13th Dengeki Bunko Newcomer Award Ceremony and Award Commemorative Banquet.

It's a very long name, and it's very difficult to pronounce it in one breath.

As the name suggests, this banquet is mainly used to recognize those writers who have won the Newcomer Award, to celebrate their career as a professional author, and it is also a commemorative meeting in the nature of a gala.

Ayase said before when she was a judge that similar activities are being done by every library publishing house. Although there are some differences in details, they are generally the same.

Basically, the winners, judges, past winners, contracted writers within the company, multimedia linkage personnel, etc. attended.

For those writers who live in remote areas or are purely part-timers, as well as writers who do not usually have the opportunity to meet, this is a precious venue to meet.

It is also a place where "ah, I survived another year in this cruel industry" can realize the hard work of myself and my colleagues.

Ayase arrived a little early, and the banquet hadn't started yet, and many people with staff licenses were still busy running around.

The banquet is very long and lasts from morning to night.Of course, such a long time can't just keep everyone trapped in one room eating, in fact, there are quite a lot of activities.

In order to hold such an annual sorority, Dengeki Bunko has reserved all the rooms on the second basement floor. In addition to the main venue, some rooms next door are also arranged as game rooms, reception rooms, etc., for the convenience of the writers. Connect with feelings.

Except for the opening and meals, you need to be in the main venue, other times can be arranged freely, and it doesn’t matter if you want to leave in the middle.

——It’s just that there will be a lottery at the closing, and if you leave, you won’t get any prizes.

This year's grand prize has been placed in the banquet hall, very conspicuous, Ayase saw it at first sight.

A car with the sign "○田".

Of course, what appeared at the venue was only a scaled model, and it is still being assembled. From where Ayase was standing, you could see the steel skeleton inside, as well as the staff who drilled in and installed it.

After revealing her identity to the staff, Ayase found a place to sit down, and first notified Editor Fujin that she had arrived, then she put away her mobile phone and looked around boredly.

In addition to herself, some authors seemed to have arrived at the venue ahead of schedule, but Ayase didn't know any of these people, so she wasn't interested in chatting with them.

Maybe all the people who can be authors are more or less "nerd attributes". These people seem to have reached a tacit agreement, each quietly holding their mobile phones and immersing themselves in their own world.

To say that among these people, the only one who made Ayase look twice was a girl who looked very immature—judging from her face, she was probably about the same age as Ayase.

But this is not the main reason to attract Ayase, what really makes Ayase look twice is the silver hair of the other party.

Oh my god, isn't this girl albino?Ayase secretly observed the other party. Apart from the hair, even the eyebrows were silver, and the skin was astonishingly white.

Thinking of this, Ayase herself believed in her own guess, and couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic.

The silver-haired girl was not playing with her mobile phone, but was holding a novel with great interest, but because the book was spread flat on the table, Ayase could only vaguely glimpse the illustrations in the pages.

——It seems a little familiar?

Before Ayase could think about it, another person walked in from the entrance of the hall.

A person Ayase knew well.

Long black hair, slender jade legs, and iconic black pantyhose.

It was Ayase's old friend and Yan Ye's old opponent, Kasumigaoka Shiwa.

As another judge of this newcomer award, she has no reason not to attend the celebration banquet.

Shi Yu stood at the door, her wine red eyes scanned the venue.

Although Ayase lowered her head and wanted to reduce her sense of existence, Shiwa caught her figure immediately and walked towards this side.

"Ah, isn't this Miyuki-sensei? I didn't expect you to come so early." Said Shiyu, and calmly sat down on the seat next to Ayase.

"Hmm..." Ayase hesitated twice in a low voice, as a greeting to Shiyu.

Shiwa didn't take it seriously either, and stared at Ayase's face with great interest, without looking away for a long time.

Ayase endured for a while, and finally couldn't take it anymore, and asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

"Tsk." Shiyu smacked her tongue and joked, "I'm just a little surprised to find that Teacher Shenxue is actually wearing makeup. Is it for the speech later?"

"You actually saw it?" Ayase was taken aback, subconsciously touching her cheek.

Shi Yu was even more taken aback, and asked back: "Isn't this obvious?"

"Are your eyes all monsters with their own high-precision imaging devices?" Ayase was defeated and complained a few words.

"You mean..." Shiyu twitched the corners of her mouth, and after complaining, Ayase gave an explanation.

"It's my mother, who dragged me up in the morning and insisted on putting on makeup. It's superfluous for me to say."

Shiwa shook her head as if hearing a weird story.

Ayase didn't want to continue talking about this anymore, so she decisively changed the subject and said, "By the way, about the Galgame script, how are you preparing..."

While Ayase and Shiwa were chatting passionately, neither of them noticed that beside the table not far away, the girl with gorgeous silver hair was secretly observing them.

In fact, ever since Shiwa called out Ayase's pseudonym "Miyuki", the silver-haired girl had already turned her attention to them.

Looking away from Ayase, the silver-haired girl murmured the word "Miyuki" in a low voice, and her slender white fingers ran across the pages of the book on the table.

The book that had been opened before had been closed, and the silver-haired girl's finger brushed across the cover, landing on the place where the author's name was printed.

"Shiba Miyuki".

"Are you alone?" The silver-haired girl muttered her doubts.

As time passed, the banquet venue was gradually completed, and the people who came to participate also arrived one after another, and the venue became more and more lively.

At this time, the staff in charge announced with a loudspeaker that the winners and judges were invited to receive special badges.

——When entering the venue at the beginning, there were people at the door who were responsible for distributing name badges, but there were not enough people at that time, so the corresponding badges have been delayed until now.

The silver-haired girl stood up and walked towards the door.She took a special look around her, and the girl who was called "Miyuki" just now, and the woman next to her with red eyes who looked very "bitch" also stood up together.

The silver-haired girl grunted twice, and according to the speaker, she found the place where the winners received their badges.

Are they also the winners this time?The silver-haired girl was a little curious, but also faintly excited.

On the other hand, Ayase naturally didn't know that the silver-haired girl was watching her. While chatting with Shiwa, she walked to the other side, where the judges received their badges.

Seeing Ayase pinning the judge's badge to her chest, the silver-haired girl's heart beat faster than expected.

Chapter 710 The Sixth Banquet Begins

Probably due to the characteristics of the writer's profession itself, this celebration banquet is not like the kind of high-class banquet that Ayase attended with her parents-all kinds of formal dresses-instead, the attendees are dressed in various styles.

Most of them are jackets and suits, some are dressed in more ornate styles, and there are obviously people who are wearing ordinary casual clothes as usual.

Ayase stood at the door and watched the scene of the awards banquet, feeling very emotional in her heart.

"Teacher Shen Xue?" A familiar strong voice came from behind. It turned out to be the editor Fu Jian in the library building, and he rushed over after finishing the matter.

"Long time no see." Ayase greeted her editor with a smile on her face.

At the same time, she looked behind the editor with guilty eyes.

Fortunately, he didn't follow the five hundred knives and axes, so he probably didn't come to question the crime.

Although there was no ambush, editor Fu Jian started the broken thoughts mode as soon as he came up this time, "Mr. Shenxue, have you finished your manuscript? It's not me urging you. Usually, you can deliver the manuscript a month in advance." The model of the publicity is now approaching, you have not encountered any difficulties this time, have you?"

"Isn't it? There are a lot of things. Don't worry, the draft of the new volume of "Accelerated World" has been basically completed. I will write a brief introduction and send it to you." Ayase said with a smile.

She didn't realize at all that when she was talking with Editor Fu Jian, there was a pair of clear eyes not far away, staring at her all the time.

"Hey, are there too many things going on recently? Regarding the speeding up of the "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" theatrical series, I have also reported to the above whether the time will be too tight." Editor Tomi Kan sighed, and Ayase Chatted about her recent work.

Last month, the first part of the theatrical version of "Little Yuan" was released as scheduled, but because it is a general episode-to put it bluntly, it is to repair some broken parts of the painting, and then throw it in the movie theater to cheat a wave of money.

So it didn't get any strong response. At most, some people felt that the audio-visual effect in the cinema is much better than watching it on TV at home.

Dengeki Bunko has advanced the release time of the sequel to the theatrical version after doing corresponding research. The purpose should be to maintain the popularity of "Madoka", and may carry out other multimedia linkage plans in the future.

"But after all, it's an episode. You don't have to do it yourself, Mr. Shenxue. If you can't do it, just delegate this matter to the production team." Editor Fu Jian kindly said.

"Uh...cough cough, I will. Haha." Ayase replied awkwardly, and then she used exaggerated laughter to cover up her guilt.

In fact, judging from Ayase's schedule during this period, it can be seen that she has nothing to do with the theatrical version of "Madoka".

A long time ago, she completely entrusted the production team of Shin Nippori with the work of "Madoka Madoka", and she didn't care about the progress after that.

——Anyway, it’s just a general episode. With the previous TV version there, it’s impossible to do Honchi even if you come from Okochi.

"By the way, do you have any ideas for the new plot after the total episode?" Editor Fu Jian asked again.

Although the general episodes are used to swindle money, it’s not good to consume the audience like that, we still have to release something new.

Ayase said at the time that he could make another theatrical version in the future, called "New Edition".

She asked editor Fu Jian to help tell the story of the new edition, and naturally editor Fu Jian was more concerned.

"Well, I probably have some vague ideas, and I need to refine it a bit more." Ayase said vaguely.
