Tokyo bubble life

Shogakukan called me last night and made an appointment to send the sample issue of "Jurassic Park" to Naoki Nagayama for review this morning, so Naoki Nagayama didn't go out at home in the morning.

"Yingtaro, let's talk about it, can you stop sticking to me?"

Naoki Nagayama, who was sitting on the verandah, pushed the dog next to him with his fingers. It was a hot day, but he still wanted to cuddle up with his owner.

Such a big dog radiates a lot of heat, and when it breathes with its mouth open, it's like hot air from an air conditioner blowing next to it.

Still have breath!

"Woof woof! (No!)" Yotaro shook his head, and then put his head on Naoki Nagayama's lap.

"Oh~~~ If it was a female, I would recognize it, but you, Taro Ying, are a male dog!"

Nagayama Naoki rubbed the dog’s head,

"Sure enough, males are more clingy."

At this moment, Akina's voice suddenly came from behind:

"Naoki-san, what are you talking about? What about being clingy?"

Nagayama Naoki turned his head and saw his wife walking over with juice in her hands, and quickly stood up and took it.

"Yutaro is too clingy." Nagayama Naoki helped Akina sit on the wicker chair, "Akina doesn't need to give you juice, it's so tiring."

"It's only a few steps away." Akina smiled, "It's not like I can't move now."

Looking at his round belly, Naoki Nagayama felt heavy. The closer to the due date, the more he felt as if his thin belly would be burst at any time.

“It’s better to have a good rest”

Akina sat down, feeling lost in thought as she listened to the occasional cicada sounds in the yard.

In fact, the cicadas on the cherry tree usually don't dare to bark too much, because there is an orange cat in the house that can climb trees. If it is too noisy, Nyanotaro will climb up and catch the cicadas.

Under the bright sunshine, the lush cherry trees covered nearly half of the yard, leaving the white sand of the dry landscape with a shiny luster. The succulents in the corners and the bamboo leaves outside the courtyard wall sandwiched a white wall, like a blank picture. Picture scroll.

“You can draw on the wall from now on!”

Akina, who put her hand on her belly, suddenly said such a sentence, which stunned Naoki Nagayama for a moment.

"???"

"I mean, the baby can use the wall as a drawing board in the future and draw on it!"

"."

Nagayama Naoki didn't know why his wife suddenly said such words, but in line with his pregnant wife's best wishes, he still nodded pretendingly:

"Well, if you look at it this way, it's really suitable for painting."

"Woof woof woof!"

"Look, Taro Ying also agrees!"

"."

Lying on the cat climbing frame, Nyaotarou stretched out his head and glanced at the three strange guys on the verandah, then retreated back into his nest. He didn't sleep in broad daylight and began to dream~

The doorbell of Shanyingyuan rang once, and then the iron door opened, and it seemed that a vehicle was driving in.

Not long after, the butler Alfred walked from the main hall of the front door to the living area here and reported to Naoki Nagayama:

"The guests from Naoki-san Elementary School have arrived."

"Ah" Naoki Nagayama stood up and walked towards the main hall, "Thank you very much, Afu!"

"This is what I should do Naoki-san, I'm going to prepare tea"

Alfred, the butler, was still dressed very rigorously and followed him out very unsmilingly. Given the emotional value, the monthly salary of one million yen is not a waste at all!

Walking to the living room, Kuniji Morikawa from Shogakukan and Yuya Furuya, the baby-faced assistant editor, were sitting there chatting.

"Bonzhi-san and Furuya-kun?"

Nagayama Naoki was a little surprised. Isn't Furuya Yuya a rich second generation who experiences life? Didn’t he say that he had gone back to inherit the family business? Why are you here again?

"Naoki-san~" Kuniji Morikawa said with a smile, "Yes, when Yuya Furuya heard that I was coming to deliver sample magazines, he had to follow me."

"Sasashibu~" Furuya Yuya stood up and greeted, "After the renovation of Yamazakura-in, it is much bigger than before!"

"It was renovated last year."

Nagayama Naoki said with a smile,

"Because I have a family~"

"Haha, it's true that the space will be bigger after you start a family."

"How come I didn't see Furuya-kun when I went to Shogakukan before?"

"Because I went abroad to study for a while."

After exchanging some pleasantries, the three of them sat down. Kuniji Morikawa also handed over a novel. On the cover was an exaggerated photo of a Tyrannosaurus rex, as well as the title of the novel, "Jurassic Park."

"Naoki-san, the trial version of the novel is ready." He pointed to the cardboard box next to him, "Send a box to Naoki-san."

These trial printing plates can be given as gifts or kept as souvenirs.

"Well, it's already printed~"

Nagayama Naoki looked through the freshly printed books. Since it was Nagayama Naoki's book, both the paper and the ink were of excellent quality, exuding the smell of freshly printed ink.

"Naoki-san~" Furuya Yuya said excitedly from the side, "I didn't expect Naoki-san to change the track again!"

The last "Paradise Lost" had already surprised him. The later "Tokyo Love Story" was a return to the original realm of youth love. This time it was actually a science fiction novel!

And the quality far exceeded expectations

In the eyes of Yuya Furuya, Naoki Nagayama is already that kind of talented and all-around writer.

"Haha, maybe I still have a childlike innocence~" Nagayama Naoki explained with a smile, "I reviewed "Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur" before, and I actually came up with the idea of ​​writing a dinosaur novel~ "

"I see!"

"Is this the reason?"

Both Kuniji Morikawa and Yuya Furuya felt strangely relieved. Speaking of which, "Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur" is indeed somewhat similar to "Jurassic Park". They both raise dinosaurs, but one is an animation and the other is a science fiction novel. That’s all.

Naoki Nagayama saw the two people's looks and nodded with satisfaction. He had only recently thought of finding a starting point for the sudden changes in his novel, and it seemed to work well.

Yuya Furuya continued to chat with Naoki Nagayama about the content of the novel, like a loyal book fan, and also discussed whether cloning technology could actually realize the behavior of cloning dinosaurs in the future, etc.

"Cloning is definitely achievable. But when the technology reaches that point, the first consideration should be ethical issues."

Nagayama Naoki lamented that there will be many books and movies on cloning-related topics in the future, such as "Escape from Cloning Island" and so on, all of which will explore the relationship between cloning technology and ethics.

With the development of science and technology, there will be more and more conflicts and discussions about them~

Alfred, the butler, brought tea, which made the three people in the living room feel like they were having a tea party. However, this kind of chatting was really interesting, and you could talk for a long time if you were not careful.

When Nagayama Naoki felt that he was almost done with his skills, he stopped this strange "seminar".

"The official release of Naoki-san's novel will be in early August," said Kuniji Morikawa, "but before then, you should be able to see the promotion of this novel~"

As I said last time, a lot of money was spent on promoting Shogakukan this time, and they will advertise it in the children's playground.

"Thank you for your hard work, Bangzhi-san~"

Naoki Nagayama and Kunji Morikawa shook hands to express their gratitude.

"Naoki-san, I will introduce this novel to my friends!" Furuya Yuya's words were very down-to-earth, like a big boy, "They will definitely like it too!"

"Haha, thank you very much~"

"It's getting late, let's say goodbye~"

"It's hard to come here."

"Where, where~"

"."

After sending people out, Nagayama Naoki saw Akina also arrived in the living room, flipping through the trial version of the novel that had been sent to her.

"Naoki-san's "Jurassic Park" is about to be published~"

Akina looked at her husband with a smile,

The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

"Can you sign your name for me?"

"You can sign ten!"

Nagayama Naoki picked up the cardboard box and walked to the small living room with Akina.

"Let's plan who these books will be given to."

Now Nagayama Naoki has so many relatives and friends, and the people he wants to send are also very particular. In addition, Akina's side, this kind of human relationship is also very troublesome.

Sachiko Kamaike, who had just walked out of Ikebukuro Station, raised her hand to cover the sun and looked at Tokyo, which she had longed for for a long time.

I just feel that under the bright sunshine, the rows of buildings throughout Tokyo are emitting light. On the commercial street at the entrance of the station, the colorful signboards and hangings are even more colorful. People are coming and going at the entrance and exit of the station, and everyone is Traveling in a hurry.

"It's just as expected. I'm going to live here this summer!"

After asking for directions, Kamaike Sachiko dragged her suitcase and walked towards the address given by the magazine, looking at this city with the most neon lights along the way.

"I heard that at night, it's the same as during the day."

The latest trailer of "Ginza Tigers" was played on the LED screen in the mall, Shizuka Kudo's song "I Want to Say I Love You Loud" was heard in the record store, and the latest version of "Slam Dunk" was printed on the cover of the comic magazine at the newsstand. Then, on the background of the bus stop is a large advertisement for "The Sound of Neon"

The poster hanging on the wall as I passed by was advertising a dinosaur park?

""Jurassic Park"? A children's paradise? It's actually a novel. European model series~"

Asking for directions all the way towards the dormitory, the hot summer sun was beating down on my body, making my forehead sweaty after a while.

At this time, Kamachi Sachiko discovered the conspicuous signboard of a milk tea shop on the street - Mixue Milk Tea.

I don’t know how it tastes, but the shape of the white snowman made Kamaike Sachiko’s mind cool for a while when she was too hot. Then when she saw the guests coming out holding cool milk tea in their hands, she felt full of temptation.

Pursing her lips, Kamachi Sachiko decisively opened the store door and walked in!

"Welcome!"

Waiter Junsui Ishii saw the guest coming in and greeted him quickly.

"Guests, please order here."

"Excuse me. The guest who just went out had something to drink. It looks very refreshing."

Kamaike Sachiko walked to the cashier and was describing the drink she had just seen to Nagayama Tsuruko, when she saw the two busy people behind the console turning around.

The broad-shouldered and round-waisted clerk has muscles that cannot be hidden even by loose work clothes. The tattoos can be vaguely seen on the open collar. There are traces of knife wounds on the circled arms, and there are even vicious scars on his face.

Could it be that this is a black shop? ! !

Kamike Sachiko felt her eyes darken, even a little dizzy, and even hesitated to speak.

“Cold drinks with ice cubes”

"Ah~~that!" Tsuruko understood very understandingly, "That's our store's signature hand-made lemon tea!!!"

“It’s a special summer drink made by mixing the best perfumed lemons with ice cubes and crushing them by hand, adding syrup, tea juice and other ingredients. Guest-san, do you want to have a drink and try it?!”

Words such as "force" and "hammer" echoed in Kamachi Sachiko's ears.

"Is it possible?"

"Of course!" Hezi turned around and shouted to a strong man, "Hongdousang, let's have another cup of hand-made lemon tea!!"

"Hi right away~"

Hara Hongdou was originally the new janitor of the Shimizu Nagayama group, but after he went to Kobe to rescue Nagayama Kumahara, he became a confidant. This time he was sent to learn how to run a milk tea shop first, and he will be the regional manager of the chain store in the future.

Kamai Sachiko only saw the strong man behind the operating table, taking a shovelful of ice cubes and putting it in a transparent plastic bucket, then putting a washed lemon in it, then closing the lid and stuffing it through the round hole in the middle of the lid. Entered a short wooden stick

Next, bulge your muscles and work hard!

Only the sound of cracking ice cubes was heard, which soon turned into a rustling sound. Under the unparalleled violence, the ice cubes and lemon became thinly crushed and mixed together until they turned into a slightly greenish-yellow mass. Smoothie mix.

Tsuruko and Kamaike Sachiko, who was standing in front of the cashier, boasted:

"Guest Sang, the hand-made lemon tea in our store, one lemon and one cup of tea, is absolutely satisfying and authentic! You made the right choice!"

".Is all the milk tea in Tokyo so violent?!"

Kamachi Sachiko was frightened

"When making lemon tea by hand, the harder you press, the better it will be! In this way, the aroma and sourness of the lemon will be released to the maximum extent."

"."

Kamai Sachiko is a little worried, will she not be allowed to go out later?

Not yet an adult, she is wary of unfamiliar cities!

Until Tsuruko handed over the plastic-wrapped hand-made lemon tea:

"Guest-san, do you need our help inserting a straw?"

"Ah, no, no, no"

"Okay. Then it's 150 yen sincerely."

"Hey, please put it away"

Kamai Sachiko quickly took out the change from her wallet, stuffed it in, and hurried out without even having time to sigh that it was so expensive.

When she returned to the hot but crowded street, she felt relieved. It looked like it was indeed not a black shop. It was also very exciting.

After staying for a few seconds, she felt the coolness of the lemon tea in her hand. She hesitated and inserted the straw into it, raised it to her mouth and took a sip.

Coolness is the first feeling, followed by sourness and sweetness, as well as the slightly astringent taste of tea and the sweet aftertaste. A lemon fragrance fills the mouth, and it seems that even breathing feels fresh~

On this hot summer day, Kamachi Sachiko shivered subconsciously.

Sure enough, it is the signature hand-made lemon tea!

She raised her head and strode towards her dormitory, feeling even more fond of Tokyo!

"Tsuruko. What's wrong?"

Ishii Junsui cleared the table and saw Tsuruko at the cashier looking at the door blankly.

"It's nothing." Tsuruko looked at the coins and coins in his hand and laughed, "The guest just now gave me a handful of change. It was not enough."

"Eh?! Why don't you catch up?"

Ishii Junsui said subconsciously,

“It shouldn’t be far away yet”

"Forget it, it's only ten yen," Tsuruko said with a smile, "The way that little sister looks, she probably didn't do it on purpose. She would be very shy if she caught up with her!"

"Eh~~~" Junsui Ishii looked at Tsuruko in surprise, "Tsuruko actually started to feel pity for her?"

"She is indeed so delicate that it makes you feel like you are seeing spring water in the mountains~"

Tsuruko shook her head. Such a temperament was very iconic. She had only seen it on a few people.

“A very interesting person. I feel like I will meet him again in the future.”

"."

Ishii Junsui glanced at the strong men behind the console, and when he saw that they were not paying attention, he quietly approached Tsuruko's ear,

"Tsuruko, wake up. Why do you feel like you're having sex?! She's a girl!"

"!!!???" Hezi was stunned for a moment, then his face quickly turned red, "Chun Shui, you guy!!!"

"Hahaha~"
