Society fears that young people don’t want to be literary godfathers

"Huh...he's here, Teacher Xiaocheng."

After meeting a certain naughty kid who was his comic partner, Mochizuki Riri also changed from the red warmth just now to quite gentle:

"Welcome - do you want to sign this one today?"

"Nonsense... I have your signature, I just need you to ask me for it."

Joking softly, Takegami Kasumi couldn't help but tease me:

"What, you're not used to me being such a considerate girl?"

"...Compared to a kid who teases me all the time and a white-haired mother who nags me all the time and has a bad mouth, Teacher Xiaocheng is indeed relatively clean."

"Hmph, if you know, cherish me more~"

"okay."

After leaving these words, Mochizuki left his signature like a dragon and a phoenix:

"OK, it's signed - I feel like this is more handsome than the previous signatures."

"...I really hope your signature is unique."

The dog-eyed girl smiled meaningfully, and then took the comic Mochizuki handed to her:

"Anyway, thank you - keep up the good work."

"?no problem."

Watching Kasumi Takegami slowly leave with the comics, Mochizuki Ri also greeted the next fan who wanted an autograph——

"Sign them all for me."

Completely opposite to the calm voice just now, the next reader's response seemed quite cold.

"......"

Hearing this familiar voice, the young man raised his head and found a certain white man who had bought both "Chainsaw Man" and "Fire Fist" and had changed from a low-cut cosplay costume to everyday short-sleeved trousers and wearing sunglasses. The wheelchair-bound little pig is now spreading dozens of comics in front of him:

"Sorry to trouble you, popular cartoonist~"

"........"

Seeing Kurihara Saki in front of him who had changed his disguise again, from Emilia to an ordinary girl, Mochizuki couldn't help but feel a little confused:

"No...who are you?"

"Presbyopia? Don't you even recognize mom?"

Kurihara Saki took off his sunglasses, his bright red eyes full of disgust:

"You're starting to turn your back on me, right? You've been eating for nothing for so many years, right?"

"...Don't say that in public. It would be bad if it causes misunderstanding."

"Leave me alone?"

"...Okay, I don't care about you."

Being suppressed by the young mother, the young man timidly said this, but did not continue the daily bickering. He just obediently signed the dozens of comics that were brought to him:

"You really want to tire me out... Sigh, my hands are sore from signing. For the sake of our partners, you should be considerate of me and go away with the comics. I signed two I feel like my fingers are about to break."

"...Ha, you, Sister Xu and Xiao Cheng don't have this attitude."

Kurihara Saki pointed out:

"You're starting to get annoyed with me, aren't you?"

"...Why do you feel like the older you get, the more girlish you become?"

While chatting with Kurihara's mother, who seemed to be getting more and more out of her mature halo, Mochizuki's hand continued to sign:

"Okay, let's skip this topic... Speaking of which, didn't you come here when you first cosplayed as Emilia? Why did you suddenly change into normal clothes again?"

"...Because the cosplay suit was too tight and too revealing, so I felt uncomfortable wearing it."

"Are you that old?"

Mochizuki couldn't help but ask.

"Do you dare to say it again?"

Kurihara Saki's eyes were sharp.

"...No, I just said that you hide it deeply."

Triggering emergency evacuation, Mochizuki continued to patch:

"Okay, if you don't want to wear it, don't wear it. I also think you look the best now... You always like to hear this, right?"

"Just barely."

"Okay, that's it - Num, the names have been signed. Teacher Xiaocheng and that little pig haven't gone far yet. Hurry up and ask them to take you to play for a while. I have something else to do and will accompany you for team building later. ..."

"Okay, remember to drink more water. It feels like your voice is a little hoarse."

After leaving such words, Kurihara Saki just rocked the electric wheelchair and drove in the direction of Takegami Kasumi and Xu Yuhuai.

At this point, after a small interlude, Mochizuki continued his autograph signing, and the girls gathered together, preparing to wait for a certain elementary school boy to finish his work and go to the exhibition together.

Everything is going smoothly.

However, it was also in the corner that Mochizuki didn't notice.

The gears of fate are turning quietly.

......

Being born as a human being is not superior to other species, but the achievements of human beings are comparable to those of the divine.What brought mankind to this point? Yuval Harari once clearly stated in "A Brief History of Humankind": It is the ability to make up stories.

Human beings conquered the world based on creating and believing in various fictional stories.From countries, religions, international organizations, and various systems to small sports competitions, game rules, and student codes, they all reflect the great power of stories.Because we believe in stories, human beings can cooperate with each other and create aircraft, cannons, submarine missiles, the United Nations and the World Trade Organization. In short, the history of human development is the history of the emergence of small stories one by one and the demise of each small story. .

When I was a child, stories were hidden in fairy tales and fables.Princesses, frogs, apples, poisons, children touch the vague shapes of real life in a semi-fictional world; while in adulthood, the stories are hidden in entertainment products, showing bizarreness in the dangerous period of hair loss in middle age. The dreamy rhythm numbs the pain of the soul and offsets the fatigue... It is precisely because of this that the existence of cultural entertainment has such a wide audience and has become the choice of entertainment for many people.

As a two-dimensional Brahmin, Mr. Kitahara Aoha, who graduated from the meat-selling harem and industrial saccharin that was thrown into the brain, is naturally well versed in this.

The past year has indeed been quite fulfilling. It has been a long time since I graduated from a high school in Toyama Prefecture and boarded the train to leave my hometown to go to school in Tokyo. My eyes have expanded from a small town to a big city, and I have changed from a high school student to a college student. I just feel that my life and the world have been impacted to some extent in the blink of an eye, the glitz and glamor are also entangled in my heart, and the inexplicable anxiety and uneasiness are rising in my heart... As the pressure gradually increases, I Under the reality of growing up, a story that is good enough, fun enough and relieves stress is naturally the rarest treasure for teenagers.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the need for stories that Kitahara Aoi has great respect for a certain psychiatric cartoonist who serialized "Chainsaw Man" and "Fire Fist".

After coming to Tokyo, the boy has always had the desire to meet his idol, and also has the idea of ​​​​deeply working in the industry... Therefore, in a college career that is more free than in the past, a boy named Kitahara Aoi Ye's boy has also transformed from an ordinary high school student to a loyal acg researcher, practitioner, a single promoter and evangelist for the love of power generation sloth fish & all, and a columnist. He often publishes related chat videos and industry news on YouTube—— Due to work needs and interviews with cartoonists who heard that ALL would participate in this exhibition, the boy was naturally prepared and spent the whole day wandering around this exhibition, which can be called the Spring Festival Gala level in the acg world.

Today, Kitahara Canye witnessed a scene that can be called legendary: his favorite manga artist suddenly loudly announced the explosive fact that he was the popular singer Slothfish in the middle of the stage, and completely defeated the most hidden light novel writer. Exposed, and even brought a live singing performance on the main stage that was a double surprise to the audience and friends... Such a series of operations is truly a miraculous reappearance, which is dizzying.

As expected of him... he was able to do such a thing.

Standing in the audience, silently watching Mochizuki Ri go crazy on the stage and chatting some radio-type jokes. Kitahara Aoha, who has always regarded the naturally curly fool as her idol, also excitedly took pictures of all Mochizuki Ri's highlights. ——When all the activities were over, the Internet was already hotly debated, and the queue for comic book signings began, the young man excitedly uploaded the photos and videos he had taken to Slothfish & all’s online fan group one by one, and spoke with great enthusiasm. It’s hard to know how to evaluate:

Pochi Silverhand: Click to view the picture.

Pochi Silverhand: My family, I’ve been shopping for a long time, and now I’m waiting in line for Teacher All’s autograph.

Hometown Chang'an:?

Undertaken by:?

Maomaotou:?What?I was still learning about the sloth fish tearing off its waistcoat on the Internet, and it turned out that Mr. Pochi was at the scene? !

Pochi Silverhand: Nonsense, I'm in Tokyo now, it doesn't matter if I have time to go and have a look...

Hometown Chang'an: Wow, so happy!Alas, seeing you so happy suddenly makes me feel a little uncomfortable. I am still looking at houses with clients, which is very sad.

Mao Maotou: Oh, I remember our group seemed to have Mr. Cappuccino going too... Damn it, I'm jealous. Big cities are so nice. It would be great if we could have this kind of comic exhibition here. From now on, I will go there and cosplay with the beautiful lolita every day???

Pochi Silverhand: The police in Tokyo are very fast, so be careful.

Maomaotou: Well, actually a large-scale comic exhibition like this is nothing.

Hometown Chang'an: .....Changed his words.

Pochi Silverhand: It’s better to ignore this silver bug and take a look at my offline photos, family.Did you see it? There were really many people at the autograph session.

Cheng Gu: Oh, I didn’t expect that Mr. Pochi would go to that booth. I’m the only one still playing mahjong in Toyama Prefecture. What the fuck???

Pochi Silverhand: Why don't you die on the mahjong table, old man? This kind of show is not suitable for old people like you?

Cheng Gu: You are numb, don’t think I can’t go!If I were willing, I could drive from Toyama Prefecture to Tokyo in a minute to take my baby daughter there and play.

Pochi Silverhand: Then why don't you go shopping with your Waseda baby girl now? It's not because she is hanging out with the handsome boy you talk about, and as a result, you abandoned your old father. Bar???

Undertaken by:?Don't scream, little one. I am giving the children space to get along harmoniously. I feel relieved just because I know that she is going back and forth with her friends on the same day. Am I not called a model parent?All the top ten people who moved Japan must be listed on my profile.

Maomaotou: .....Why does it feel like the more Teacher Gu talks, the more he feels like he has been abandoned by his daughter?

Hometown Chang'an: With tears in my eyes, Teacher Gu, please give me my condolences.

Cheng Gu: Your mother?, and you gave me some drool-worthy failed old father characters. Are you looking down on me?

Maomaotou: Teacher Gu, why don’t you stop explaining? It feels more honorable if you don’t explain...

Hometown Chang'an: Indeed.

Cheng Gu: Awesome, just piss me off like this, and then there will be no one on the Internet who loves you.

Cheng Gu: Who is in a hurry?Who do you think is in a hurry?My daughter calls me every day and cries at night saying she misses her parents. She has to be coaxed to sleep by me every day.

Cheng Gu: Forget it, it’s okay if you little guys don’t understand, don’t think about it all day long, you know?The fact that I didn't come to Tokyo can only mean one thing: I still have business to be busy with, I hope you know.

Pochi Silverhand: You are right, but now you are just a left-behind old man who was abandoned by your daughter in your hometown and is still wailing and playing mahjong with your friends. But it’s okay. Don’t worry. I’ll take care of you. I’ll take care of you when the event is over. Keep laughing at you, who makes you my best friend?

Cheng Gu:? Boqi, your mother is dead.

"......"

Seeing that the oldest Lao Deng in the chat group seemed to have broken his guard and even started to surround and suppress him, Kitahara Cangye put his phone back into his pocket with satisfaction, feeling inexplicably happy.

Jedi Gossamer is the most enjoyable laning experience.

After so many days of online battles with the old guy with the ID of "Cheng Gu", the boy gradually understood the weakness of men that are most likely to break defenses. At this point, he finally took the absolute dominant advantage from the disadvantage in the line and began to enslave online. Lao Deng’s new journey.

But a lonely little landowner who was abandoned by his daughter in a small town, isn't it easy for you to handle him?

Perhaps the more he thought about it, the happier he felt. Kitahara Cangye couldn't help but snicker twice, and his steps became disordered unconsciously. He accidentally stepped on the heel of the girl in front of him in line.

"......Well?"

A soft hum sounded.

Feeling that she had been kicked, the girl with long straight black hair who seemed to be a little sparse standing in front of the boy was also stunned at this moment and turned her head——

"what......"

Realizing that he was a little distracted and accidentally stepped on someone else and shouted, the young man also reacted from the joy of being in the line just now and apologized continuously:

"Sorry, sorry... I didn't see the road clearly just now, please don't worry."

"Ah...it's okay."

After seeing clearly the appearance of the boy behind her, the girl wearing black-rimmed glasses, black pantyhose and small leather shoes also waved her hand at this moment:

"Don't worry, I was just a little scared... It's okay now, please, please don't worry."

"That, that's good..."

The atmosphere is indeed a bit awkward.After apologizing repeatedly, the boy and girl, who usually rarely interacted with outsiders, quickly turned their heads at this moment and continued to move forward as if nothing had happened. The roots of their ears were slightly red.

"........"

Holding the comics of "Chainsaw Man" and "Fire Fist", Kitahara Cangye's thoughts have completely separated from the confrontation just now.

At this moment, what appeared in his mind was still the long, straight, black girl wearing black-rimmed glasses and showing a mature appearance.

....for no reason.

There was a faint throbbing in the young man's heart.

She is such a good-looking girl... Logically speaking, such a good-looking girl should not be wandering around the comic exhibition alone - but why is there no one accompanying her?

.......How strange.

Trying his best to suppress the faint emotions emerging in his heart, Kitahara Cangye kicked his legs and continued to line up as if nothing was wrong.

Standing in front of Beiyuan Cangye, the girl whose shoe was stepped on just now, named Xu Haoqing, also felt a little sad in her heart.

She never expected that she would go to the toilet, but when she looked back, she could not find her cousin Xu Yuhuai and the accompanying girl in a wheelchair... I don't know if it was because of this. Whether her phone was out of battery or the comic show was too noisy, she still couldn't get through the call, and she couldn't find the large team, so she could only come to the autograph signing site by accident, thinking that since she couldn't find anyone for the time being, she might as well go to the autograph signing site first. We have to wait until we sign, otherwise this exhibition will really be in vain——

.....So, where did that little pig Xu Yuhuai go?
