Roppongi, outside the window of a luxury high-rise apartment.

The night view of Tokyo is still splendid.

Tokyo Tower, Tokyo Bay ......

What are you doing with all this stuff?

Although Higashino Qiang was still on his recliner at this time, he didn't care to look at the scenery outside the window at all.

There's a better one in my house.

Yui, when this girl came in, she turned into a cook and tossed in the kitchen.

In other words, the kitchen of this kind of apartment is of course open, and Higashino Qiang can easily see how Yui's girl cooks.

Want to cook yourself a meal?

Will she?

Higashino Qiang was skeptical in his heart, but he definitely had a smile on his face.

"Ernie sauce, you just wait, don't always look over!

"Oh, I see. ”

It's pretty secret, what the hell is going on?

In other words, Higashino Qiang wants to ask one thing, that is, how did she and Masami rent a house here?

Japanese stars are very hard, not to mention newcomers like Masami and Yui, who have not been debuting for a long time, really can't make much money.

Some of them are even less moneyless, and they are simply arranged by the office to live wherever they want.

Of course, this is also money, so that the star will not be able to get rid of the control of the firm in the future.

It's okay for Masami and Yui to come out and rent a house, but in this Roppongi, it's too different.

Moreover, even if they are big stars, most of them are in Meguro Ward, which is where the Higashi-Okomaba Campus is located.

This one......

With Higashino's strong reasoning ability, he immediately started a lot of contacts.

My parents bought a house, and I bought Roppongi, which is more expensive here, so the reason for buying the house can be explained.

However, it is also quite far from Todai.

At the same time, Masami and Yui also moved into this apartment building.

Now it's still like this, as if it's a door.

So, what is the truth?

But I heard Higashino Qiang say: "There is bonito in the refrigerator, but there is no tofu." ”

After listening to it, Yui naturally replied, "I don't use tofu this time, my aunt said it, you can use ......"

Well?

"Ernie sauce!" Yui shouted at the moment.

Higashino Qiang laughed when he heard this, "I see. ”

That's right, the truth has been figured out.

Yui was angry at this time, "Ernie sauce, how can you be like this, just rely on your own cleverness, just, just bully people?"

Higashino was wronged for a while, "What did I bully?" ”

Before, it was just my father who said to buy a house, but now that I look at it, it must be my mother who is also in battle.

No wonder I have to pay the rent, it turns out that I bought two houses, and ah, I haven't told myself yet.

Is this a little accident for me Higashino Qiang?

And Masami and Yui lived in, so the purpose is to cultivate feelings?

No, that dish of fried tofu with wooden fish flowers, but my mother's specialty dish has been passed on to Yui.

The meaning is obvious, just like when I was in Okinawa, my parents were very satisfied with Yui's daughter-in-law.

But, the girl is only 16, what should I do when I am Ernie sauce?

But think about it again.

According to this reasoning, the mother should be towards Yui, and the problem of this house is to create some opportunities for the two of them.

So, isn't it strange that Masami rents with her?

Mom even agreed.

What did Masami and Yui say to be able to do this?

Or, Mom didn't agree at all?

No, no, no, then......

Although Higashino Qiang's reasoning ability is very good, he can't completely see the current situation, but he can feel that Masami is indeed as she said in Shikoku that night, and she is also working hard.

So, what about Yui?

Looking at the way she is working hard to cook now, it seems that she is also working hard.

Inexplicably, I was very moved.

But the future of the three of them is actually the biggest obstacle.

If everything goes according to normal development, Mr. Kigo will be so famous, and Masami and Yui will become big stars.

If we are together ...

It would be unimaginable for the public to know about it.

But that's the future, and maybe a way will be found then.

Higashino Qiang definitely looks at the present first.

"Ernie sauce, done. ”

Yui is really very hands-on, and it didn't take much time to make three dishes and one soup.

The kitchen of the apartment is open plan, then, of course, the dining room is next to the kitchen.

Higashino Qiang hugged the toast sauce over, well, now he can't dual-wield, Xiao Rika has already come to Yui before, and it's a good meal.

The girl of pear blossom sauce has not forgotten to save her life.

Yui couldn't help but spoil twice when she saw it.

Higashino Qiang didn't care so much, sat down and took a look.

It's really good.

The soup is just ordinary miso soup, and there are mushrooms and vegetables in it, and it looks okay.

One of the other three dishes is fried beef cubes, which are fine cuts of beef, which are then fried in butter until medium-rare at 7 and sprinkled with black pepper.

This dish is considered to be using Higashino Qiang's refrigerator reserves, although he has just moved into his new home, he will definitely not treat himself slowly.

Another dish is thick egg roast, which is relatively simple.

As for the last course, the absolute key, it is the bonito flower pancakes.

Needless to say, this bonito flower is taught by my mother, and the pancakes are somewhat similar to Okonomiyaki.

"I can't see it, you girl has really grown. "Higashino Qiang, this is definitely a sincere compliment.

It's a pity that Yui doesn't appreciate it very much, so she takes off her apron and sits opposite Ernie chan.

"Ernie sauce, you're saying this as if I used to be terrible. ”

"Oh, this ......" Higashino Qiang summed up, what were you like before, I don't know yet?

Cook?

It's good at eating.

But he didn't say this, he just looked at her with a strange look.

Yui blushed when she was seen, so she had to say, "People will always grow up!"

Higashino Qiang was also hungry, "Okay, I'll try Yui's methods." ”

Picked up a thick piece of egg roast and put it in his mouth...

Chew, chew, chew...... Swallowed.

"How?"

"Not bad. ”

Yui kept staring at Higashino Qiang's expression until he swallowed it, and it was no different, she was so careful that she put it back in her stomach.

Higashino Qiang picked up another piece of wooden fish flower tendon cake, and then, chewing, chewing......

"How?"

Yui's heart was lifted again until ......

"Well, that's good. ”

Higashino nodded with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"Great!" Yui felt like a big success.

But Dong Ye Qiang continued: "Don't just eat me, you can taste it too." ”

"Haha......" Yui was very confident at this time, revealing a smile.

It's also a thick egg roast...

"Poof!"

Why is it so salty!

Yui felt like her tongue was going to explode, and if she hadn't made this thing herself, she would have gone berserk.

But he was still unwilling, and sandwiched another pancake.

Outcome......

"Wow, Ernie sauce, you, you......"

This time it's not salty, it's a taste that I don't know how to describe at all.

Yui then looked up at Higashino Qiang.

I saw Ernie Sauce eating hard.

"How so!"

Failure, complete failure, and, moreover, being tricked by Ernie sauce.

Higashino Qiang just played in line with the central idea that I can't suffer alone.

So, being so ruthless, of course, I tried my best to pick up the rice.

Yui covers her face with her hands.

No, I don't have a face to see people.

Higashino Qiang took the time to say: "You, I just saw it, when you cook, you make an average of 3.33 times per minute, and it is okay to be able to achieve this level." ”

This...

"Ahhh

Yui was frustrated, but it occurred to her all of a sudden.

"Ernie-chan, you ......"

Have you been staring at me?

Higashino Qiang stretched out his hand at this time, held Yui's little hand, and comforted: "Actually, there is no need to force yourself. ”

Well, Higashino Qiang could see Yui's efforts early on, but this was indeed reluctant.

Such and such...

His own hand was in the palm of Ernie sauce's hand, and there were these words of encouragement.

Yui's heart is beating fast!

"Oni-chan! Eat it yourself!"

After saying that, he ran away.

Higashino Qiang saw Yui's back, and he couldn't help laughing.

This girl, although sometimes bold, is still similar to when she was in Okinawa.

It's clearly my brother and sister.

But.

Yui's plan to cook for Ernie sauce and conquer the stomach was a success or a failure?

Fortunately, this black pepper beef Higashino Qiang did not eat less, and he also drank a big bowl of miso soup.

......

Kadokawa Shoten, Editorial Department.

I have already obtained the distribution rights of the book "White Night Walking", and 100 million yen is equivalent to the original manuscript material for Mr. Kigo.

In fact, this is no different from normal publishing.

The editor-in-chief Tanaka knows very well that the so-called Hatano Bookstore is just a façade.

So, the key now is how to better distribute this one.

It's a better sale.

If you want to be a big seller, the quality of itself is of course a must.

But in addition, a lot of propaganda tools are needed.

In the publishing industry, everyone sees such awards as marketing advertisements.

It will indeed have a great impact on sales.

But now.

Tanaka himself came out of the Spring and Autumn Period of Literature and Art, and those two awards are probably ...

However, Tanaka also thought of a good way because of this.

He pulled out his notebook, which contained many records.

Turned to such a page.

It is written above, many awards.

It's very complicated, not only the Akutagawa Award, the Naoki Award, the Reasoning Association Award, but also, the Saitama Sports Literature Award.

Worthy of being a professional editor, such awards are recorded.

Tanaka looked down.

It's October now, but what about after October?

Izumi Kagyoka Award.

Yamamoto Fridayo Award.

Yukio Mishima Prize.

Looking at it, Tanaka had a smile on his face.

This time you have to make those old guys look good!

There are already plans in the field center, but some help is needed.

This so-called help ...

He couldn't help but laugh.

Why did I forget that teacher?,Moreover,Teacher Onigo was also admitted to the University of Tokyo.,And there's already a connection with that teacher.。

East?

The teacher?

Who is he?
