Boarding the train, returning to Tokyo, Iruma sent Megumi home first, and gave her a copy of Kasumigaoka's "Love Metronome" when they parted.

The time is not as late as Iruma thought, it is only seven o'clock, and the bookstore has not closed. Iruma then wandered around to find out about the release of "Love Metronome" in Tokyo.

Iruma ran five bookstores in succession, but the result did not leave him lucky.

No matter which bookstore, "Love Metronome" is placed in the corner, not selling too many copies, and the answers obtained by consulting the cashier are similar to Saitama, and the Immortal River Bunko has not invested publicity resources.

Each cashier is given a book, and they are asked to read it and recommend it to customers.

On the way home, Iruma couldn't help but worry about Kasumigaoka.

Iruma is very optimistic about "Love Metronome", but after all, it is a personal opinion. He is not a professional editor, maybe Kasumigaokaoka's book is not suitable for the current light novel environment, it is reasonable not to invest resources in publicity, and the Immortal River Bunko has a lot of money and does not care about the loss of a book on the street.

It's just that it's not clear whether Kasumigaoka can accept this blow, and her dedication to this novel is obvious to all. Kasumigaoka has her own pride in the pursuit of perfection, and only hopes that the results of this release will not sink her.

Iruma remembered that Kasumigaoka had mentioned to her editor, Machida Enko, and the other party should know something inside.

After Iruma arrived home, he turned on his computer, logged in to the website of the Immorukawa Bunko, and found the submission email address of Machida's editor.

[Hello Miss Machida, I'm Akira Iruma, a friend of Shiko Kasumi, and I would like to consult you about the release of the book "Love Metronome".

Iruma edited the email and sent it. Iruma wasn't sure if he would dismiss his email as harassment, and he didn't want to call Machida's editor because he was worried about Kasumigaoka's mood.

Without waiting for Machida's reply, Iruma first received a line from Kasumigaokaoka.

[Sorry]

The message was only three short words.

Iruma did not reply, and he called Kasumigaokaoka's line number.

It was hung up twice, and the third time Kasumigaoka was finally connected.

"What's wrong? Scum junior brother Iruma-kun? Already tired of the last photo? Want to use my voice this time?

Kasumigaoka lazily entered the room with a poisonous tongue, as if nothing had happened.

"Kasumi Shizi, can I ask you to come out and meet?"

"Huh? How bold is it? Could it be that you are a scum junior..."

"I have something very important to tell you." Iruma spoke sincerely.

Kasumi no Oka panicked, should it not be to enter the room...

"I'm going out for coffee, is Iruma going to come?"

Kasumigaoka sent out the invitation without incident.

"It's a great honor, Senior Sister Kasumigaoka."

Iruma was still wearing the clothes Megumi had sent, and after thinking about it, he changed into the long sleeves and sweatpants he used to wear and went to the location of Kasumi Coffee Shop.

Senior Sister Kasumigaoka sipped coffee in her regular clothes, and the only thing that remained unchanged was the eye-catching black silk.

"Junior Brother Iruma, what's so important that you came to me?"

Kasumigaoka held Jiro's leg and tilted his chin to look at Iruma, who was standing opposite.

Iruma took out the "Love Metronome" from the pocket he brought over, opened the title page, and bent down to offer it with both hands.

"Please ask Shiko Kasumi to sign for me!"

There were not many people in the café, and they didn't hear what Iruma said, and many people thought that someone was handing a love letter to confess.

The moment she saw her novel, Kasumi Shiko's expression could no longer maintain a smile.

"Stop laughing at me... Iruma, can I call you that? Kasumigaoka's tone was low, and his eyes were a little empty.

"Of course Senior Sister Kasumigaoka can call me that, can I sit here?"

Iruma walked to the seat on the other side of Kasumigaokaoka.

Kasumigaoka didn't answer, she moved in a little, and Iruma sat next to her.

"Am I useless?" Kasumi Hills leaned on Iruma's body, "More than a year of preparation and hard work, stayed up so many nights, deleted and changed so many words, Iruma helped me so much, stayed with me for so long, and finally ended up with a data of only 1,000 sales on the first day." "

Kasumigaoka smiled self-deprecatingly, "Am I not talented at writing at all?" Iruma, have you been coaxing me? In

the evening, Kasumigaokaoka, who noticed that something was wrong, finally learned his results from his editor, Miss Machida, under pressure.

More than nine hundred copies.

It didn't matter if it was 910 or 990, Miss Machida's tone seemed to be a little distracted, and she didn't care anymore.

After she knew the result, the first thought in her mind was to be sorry for Iruma.

Her hard work is for herself, but Iruma has no such obligation. My own needs have never been shirked, and even late messages will be replied to in the room, and it is even more common to stay up late to disrupt the schedule. Therefore, the failure of her novel made her feel that she had failed to pay her to her.

Iruma guessed correctly that this incident dealt a big blow to Kasumigaokaoka, who has always pursued perfection.

Iruma didn't push Kasumigaoka away, letting her lean on his shoulder.

He is not only facing Kasumi Hill, but also his friend Kasumi Shiko, who has been with him for a long time.

"Senior Sister Kasumigaokaoka, do you remember your original intention for writing the novel?" Slow opening in the room.

"The original intention?"

Kasumigaoka's thoughts drifted back to the day when he decided to write a novel.

What did she come to write a novel in the first place?

In the past, when I complained about the current situation of light novels with Iruma, I seemed to have randomly made up a story and sent it to Iruma.

[Those female characters who only serve the male protagonist can also be called female protagonists?] The motivation is far-fetched, and the white is also inexplicable, at least this is how to let the reader experience real feelings! ]

After that, I sent such a paragraph, what did I call Jimma at that time? It seems to be just a simple "you".

[I didn't expect Kasumi Shizi, your writing to be so good?] I also think that those light novels are of uneven quality, too much of a house style, and if they describe feelings as delicate as yours, I wouldn't call them "fast food readings." [

You trust me a lot, so do you say I should try to write a novel myself?] The two characters I just wrote, I don't really want their story to end like that. [

If your characters are real, they will be grateful for the vitality that Kasumi Shiko's writing has given them.] This

is how Kasumigaoka embarked on the path of being a writer.

"Remember?" Iruma reached out and shook it in front of Kasumigaoka's face, "Your original intention was to give your character a more complete story, and you have succeeded in this regard.

Kasumigaoka's eyes lit up.

"It won't be a word of comfort for me, will it?" Kasumigaoka's tone was not as low as before, "So far, I've only heard good reviews from you and Miss Machida. "

Iruma took out his mobile phone and showed Kasumigaoka a chat history.

Kitagawa : [Iruma relatives!] Your friends are too good! It was as if I was really watching Yuka Saga and Naoto fall in love in front of my eyes! Don't come back to me, I'm going to finish reading this book tonight!"

Iruma withdrew his phone, picked up his own coffee and took a sip.

"See? Senior Sister Kasumigaoka, not only me, but others who have read your novel will think the same. I also recommended quite a few people, and I'm sure they feel the same way. Your novel is not asking the reader to read the story, but to read the story as if it were happening right in front of them.

So I say, Senior Sister Kasumigaoka has completed your original intention, and your characters have a complete story, because they seem to have real existence.

Kasumigaoka Zhu's lips opened slightly, and he whispered Kitagawa name.

"Kitagawa is a veteran two-dimensional enthusiast, and she can see it so fascinatingly, I think it should explain some facts."

Iruma thought that Kasumigaoka was grateful for Kitagawa for his evaluation, so he briefly introduced Kitagawa hobbies to make her feel more convincing after reading it.

"Who is Kitagawa ? Why are you called intimate relatives?

Kasumigaoka raised his eyes and asked irrelevant questions.

...... Iruma's hand holding the teacup trembled.

"Should Senior Sister Kasumigaoka pay attention to this issue?"

He looked down into Kasumigaoka's burgundy eyes.

"Cut, the scum junior junior is really a scumbag."

The title was changed back, and it also represented that the familiar poisonous tongue senior sister Kasumi no Oka was resurrected with blood.

"Can you sign me now?" Teacher Kasumi Shiko.

Iruma reopened the book and placed it in front of Kasumigaokaoka.

Kasumigaoka took out a black signature pen from his jacket pocket, left his signature on the title page, and wrote a thoughtful message:

Kasumi Shiko - a scumbag who tries to take advantage of the void to play with her people.

"Teacher Kasumi Shizi doesn't have to waste pen and ink so much." Iruma laughed far-fetchedly.

"I like it, is it in charge of the scum junior junior?" Kasumi did not let Iruma see his satisfied smile.

The cost of publishing the novel is borne by the Immortal River Bunko, and she has nothing to lose, nothing more than the novel's waist. She was already able to accept the situation.

As Iruma said, her original purpose was only to give the characters a complete story, which really could not be published, and she would only write it to Iruma to read in the future, as long as he admitted himself, there was nothing to care about.

Kasumigaoka regained his strength, and Iruma was ready to go home.

He wanted to get up, but his calf was tugged.

Without looking under the table, Iruma could guess that Kasumigaoka must have been wearing no shoes on one foot, and clamped his trouser leg with his toe.

"Senior Sister Kasumigaoka, it's late, I should go home..." Iruma

pressed down the thought of wanting to see it.

"Does the scum junior want to pat his ass and leave after making out on my skin?"

"It's me that Senior Sister Kasumigaoka relies on, and we're just in contact with clothes."

"Have you already fantasized about being without clothes? It seems that I didn't misread the scum Junior Jun, who obviously has a girlfriend, and doesn't even hide when I lean in. "

Is this right, how can that weak look just now be Kasumi Hills.

"Because I like Kasumi Shiko, and I don't hate Kasumi no Okaoka either."

Iruma said this in a deep voice.

Deadly hormones poured into Kasumigaoka's ears.

Iruma smiled and left his seat, leaving Kasumigaoka with a blank brain, and went to the bar to check out.

He's not the one he used to be.

And he is telling the truth, he likes Kasumi Shizi, a netizen, and does not hate Kasumi Zhiqiu, a senior sister.
