Retirement Process [Extra]
At the front door of the restaurant, under the compliment of the clerk, Shiyu Kasumigaoka picked up her shoulder bag and stepped out of Geya’s front door with a blank expression.
The hot sun at noon made her raise her hand, and the hot weather also made the girl who had just walked out of the air-conditioned room extremely uncomfortable.
However, compared to the physical discomfort, what was even more uncomfortable was the girl’s fragile self-esteem that was better than glass.
After getting used to the sun and the temperature difference, Kasumigaoka Shiyu put down her arms, took out a light blue sunshade from her shoulder bag, leaned the umbrella pole against her shoulder, and looked at the asphalt road in front of her with traffic and traffic, the girl felt inexplicably melancholy.
“It’s really a blow to the skin.”
In the past, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu would not have recklessly chosen to retire early. After all, this kind of behavior is very impolite. In the eyes of the people of the island nation, this is already a serious behavior that offends people.
But at that time, her mind was hot, and she chose to get up and leave the seat. Although she told her before leaving the seat, it was just that the girl was saving her last dignity.
‘And even if you don’t leave the table, you will only receive additional attacks while sitting there? ’ Shiyu of Kasumigaoka, who was walking towards the shady road, couldn’t help but think so.
Seeing Aksaka Zhuyin’s enthusiasm to win over Eiri, even if she knew that the other party was concerned about her family and interests,But for Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who was just ridiculed as an accessory, it was almost like adding salt to the wound.
One side is highly sought after, while the other side turns a blind eye. Just think about how embarrassing it is for someone who is turned a blind eye to stay on the scene.
Thinking about it this way, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu has already found enough reasons for her previous disrespect, and as for being targeted by the big boss of the industry, Benizaka Zhuyin… It has already been treated as a gift, does it make a difference if it is targeted or not? ?
Moreover, although Xiazhiqiu Shiyu didn’t want to admit it, she knew very well that if she was targeted, someone would definitely stand up for her, right?
‘That guy only has an advantage of ‘protecting his weaknesses’. ’
Sighing softly in her heart, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu held an umbrella and planned to walk to the bus stop ahead and take the subway home.
As for the taxi, in the island country where the starting price is sky-high, it is really a VIP service that only rich people can enjoy.
Of course, it wouldn’t be that exaggerated. At least Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu could afford the taxi fare, but now she plans to take a walk and calm down.
“Wait, wait a minute, hello, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, did you hear that?”
A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind the preoccupied Xiazhiqiu Shiyu who walked to the front.
“Sawamura?”
She froze for a moment, then turned her head and saw Ying Lili in a beige dress trotting forward.
Running to the front and back of Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, Ying Lili stopped immediately, bowed her waist, pressed her hands on her knees, and exhaled heavily, and the comforting words she wanted to say turned into sharp questions like a hedgehog.
“Huh~huh~ you guy, did you deliberately pretend you didn’t hear it?”
“That’s not true. I just thought that you should be in the restaurant at this time, so I subconsciously ignored it.”
Rarely, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu patiently explained to Ying Lili the reason why she had turned a blind eye before, which also made Ying Lili, who was already a little worried about the other party, even more worried.
“Hey, you must have been hit by that woman, right?”
As soon as the words were spoken, Ying Lili’s face froze, and she cried out inwardly, what kind of pot did she not mention? Originally, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu was upset, and she deliberately mentioned Hongsaka Zhuyin.
After the words fell, even Eriri, who didn’t know how to read words and expressions, could clearly notice that there was something wrong with Kasumigaoka Shiyu’s face. The expression of frowning and then letting go, was obviously disgusted by her, right?
“……more or less.”
Unexpectedly, Kasumigaoka Shiyu turned her head slightly, and said in a light tone. The scene of getting angry as the former imagined did not appear.
In fact, as long as anyone who has been with Eriri for a long time can see her thoughts from her rich expression, and in this point, among the women who are best at observing Eriri, the first must be Sayuri Sawamura, But the second is none other than Xiazhiqiu Shiyu.
So knowing that Ying Lili cared about her, the girl was not as angry as the former imagined, but rather relieved.
Knowing that Xiazhiqiu Shiyu was not angry, Yinglili secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then carefully observed the other party’s expression, and softly probed:
“Hey, don’t you really believe what Hongsaka Zhuyin said?”
“Otherwise? We must know that Hongsaka is famous in the industry for his sharp eyesight. After being discovered by her, the creators who have embarked on the road to fame are probably enough to form a reinforcement platoon, right?”
Under Ying Lili’s astonished gaze, Kasumigaoka Shiu became a little unconfident. Although in the Celestial Dynasty, experts became the object of public ridicule because of some black apples, but in the island country, experts have an extraordinary role among the people. authority.
The Dana who decides the life and death of new people with one word is too numerous to count in this class-solidified society, and he is extremely authoritative.
Not to mention anything else, as long as Benizaka Zhuyin releases her previous evaluation of Kasumigaoka Shiwa in public, at least without external force, her resignation from the circle is almost certain.
Of course, under normal circumstances, when there is no conflict of interest, no one would do such a thing that destroys people’s future. It is inevitable that the islanders are notoriously prone to extremes, otherwise Conan’s business would not spread all over the island up.
“Are you really okay?”
After hearing this, Ying Lili, who is stupid, can no longer describe her mood with worry. She always feels that Xiazhiqiu Shiyu is like a virtuous and eminent monk, who may become a monk at any time and become a Buddha. Uh, no, it should be said to be giving up Career, but it seems to describe it similarly.
“Ah, I was a little bit hit, but it’s just Akane Benizaka. Give me a while to break through myself and stop her mouth with better works.”
“…Is that so?”
Ying Lili said a little worriedly, she always felt that the other party seemed to be trying to be brave.
“Okay, Sawamura, the bus is coming soon, I have to go first.” Kasumigaoka Shiu raised her hand, pointed to the gradually approaching bus in the distance, and said softly to Eriri.
“Oh, oh! Then you should be careful.”
Ying Lili watched Kasumigaoka Shiyu walk to the bus, thought for a while, gritted her teeth, picked up the phone, and dialed Yu’s number.
……
1 hour.
A subway station in Nerima.
Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who walked out of the subway station, walked through several streets with the crowd, stepped onto the path back home, and walked forward with a silent expression.
Although she talked to Ying Lili that she would get over it soon, but in fact, it was the first time she faced criticism from professionals, and she still directly denied everything.With one blow, Kasumigaoka Shiwa who was attacked was not as strong as she said.
This is always the case for cutting-edge writers. When encountering professional negation, it can easily turn into self-denial, resulting in a series of self-doubts, and then encountering a bottleneck in creation, and then continuing deep self-doubt, which is almost equivalent to a vicious circle. Strange circle, this phenomenon can be called the ‘retirement process’.
To be honest, there are quite a few authors who directly step into the resignation process because of a criticism from a reader or a senior colleague. It is even very common to “speak freely” because of the development and anonymity of the Internet.
And Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu herself is also aware that she has already begun to have this tendency, and knowing this phenomenon, she is a little helpless now.
Perhaps, she should seek psychological counseling from the editor.
Just when Xiazhiqiu Shiyu was thinking this way, two consecutive sirens suddenly sounded in his ears.
Xiazhiqiu Shiyu froze for a moment, frowned in displeasure, and turned her head.
Then, she saw the white Lexus running parallel to the side of the road and slowly pulled down the window, revealing Yu’s face.
