January 2002.

The final results of the 126th Akutagawa Prize.

Nagashima has "Mother, Fly!"

But this session is very different from the past, and there are two more special recommendations.

"Snake Tongue" and "The Back of the Underkick".

It's very weird that there will be a special recommendation, which was not available before.

Naturally, it aroused the interest of a lot of people.

It didn't take long for news to come out.

The Literature Promotion Association will never again invite Kigo to be a judge.

There is even news that Onigo had a conflict with several literary celebrities in the process of review, so this is the case.

But that's not all.

It didn't take long for more rumors to pop up.

"Have you heard of it? It's because I recommend new people and new books.,It's the kind of newcomers who are particularly new.,That's why I'm fighting with those old-timers.。 ”

"No, right? Why is the ghost like this?"

"It's those two special recommendations, and one of those two special recommendations is my father's judge, and I threw them all away. ”

"Huh, is it so ruthless?"

"Later picked it up again and recommended it. ”

"Isn't that shameless?"

"What I heard was that the ghost was clearly speaking for the young man!"

"It's really enough to talk about seniority or something!"

"Yes, it's obviously too young to win the award. ”

2CH played a role again, and when it was rumored that Onigo was helping young people, many people chose to side with Onigo.

Then, something even more interesting.

"Snake Tongue" and "The Back of the Underkick", although they did not win the award, they also completed their debut.

Both works were sold well when they were printed.

In particular, "Snake Tongue" was named Japan's "Troubles of Young Werther".

Of course, this book has also suffered a lot of attacks, and many people don't even believe that it was written by a young girl.

"The Back of the Underkicked" was also a big hit, and after it came out, many people praised this work.

Interestingly, the sales volume echoed each other.

Originally, the literary market in Japan was relatively deserted, but both of these works contributed to more than 200,000 sales, setting a record in recent years.

And even more amazing is the onigo.

A ranking from 1987, 'This reasoning is amazing'.

In 2002, of course, the rankings were made as scheduled, but there was a very unusual situation.

"Secret" and "D, N" occupy the first and second places in the charts respectively!

Two books by the same author, it turned out to be so.

In Japan, this is a rare and uncommon situation.

There are many awards, that is, there is no next time after you win them.

For example, as long as you have won this award, no matter how good your work is in the future, you will not have the opportunity to win it.

This ranking is made by the Treasure Island Society.,It's a guide-reading ranking.。

And there is only one reason why such a special situation has arisen.

The votes are too high!

So, in terms of sales.

In January 2002, with three copies and a total sales of more than 500,000 units, Onigo became the number one!

This sales volume can already be booked as the best-selling company this year.

Unexpectedly, it was achieved in the first month of the year.

Based on past experience, others don't even have the slightest chance.

This is just the beginning.

......

In February, in No. 3, 2nd floor, Ivy Village.

"Teacher, I have another request for an interview, this time from NHK!"

"Tell them I'm not available. ”

"Haha...... I knew it was so. In addition, there are several awards that I would like to ask teachers to be judges. ”

"I've said it all, it's not available. ”

"Teacher, you can think about it, these awards are not now, but distributed in the months of this year. ”

"Huh, are you thinking so long-term? They're not afraid that I'll offend the Literature Promotion Association?"

They all said that as long as Mr. Onigo appeared on the list of judges, then they could improve the fairness and authority of their awards!"

"You mean, I'm a critic now?"

"Hahaha...... Teachers are versatile and should use their full strength. ”

"Forget it, Hiagi, I'm really busy right now, so I can only say sorry to them. ”

"Hello!"

One phone call after another, Higashino Qiang was so busy that he was speechless.

I don't know what those guys think, desperately trying to ask Onigo to do this and do that.

It's weird.

I'm so busy.

I put down the phone and picked up my high school English textbook again.

That's right, at the moment, the first priority of Kigo aka Higashino Qiang is to learn high school knowledge and study hard in order to get a good score in the final exam in the near future.

It's so stressful.

I guess those guys who want to be sent away by Hiagi can't imagine that they lost to high school book knowledge anyway.

Mr. Keigo couldn't help himself for a long time, "Saikyo! ”

"What? Mr. Keigo, are you not mistaken? What kind of stand am I putting up, I have to take an exam, do you understand? Otherwise, I will be assigned to a class next semester, and I will be assigned to the following. ”

"Hahaha...... You kid, you're justified. Really, saikyo, I was touched by you, I didn't expect you to be so upheld in the spirit of justice. ”

"Mr. Keigo, how can I have that kind of thought? Did you take the wrong medicine to think like that?"

"I'm a ghost, what kind of medicine do you take!"

"Okay, actually, I'll be honest with you, do you see the current situation? Hehe, how about I show you Mr. Onigo's passbook? There are a lot of zeros on it, do you want to read it? I thought of this situation early on, I am so righteous and awe-inspiring, I will definitely let more people buy my book, hehe, my goal has been achieved. ”

"Saikyo, you guy has a hard mouth! Forget it, you can read the book. ”

It must be said that Higashino Qiang is relatively weak in his quarrel with Mr. Keigo.

At that time, he was really based on righteous indignation.

Maybe it's because I'm my own age that I can feel that way.

Coupled with the protection of a helmet, he was furious.

Thinking about it, he was also a little scared, and slapped the table on those literary bigwigs in front of him.

However, on second thought, there is an old thief like Ishihara, this old thing is very bad, and this old thief is the kind of representative even in Japan, especially extremely stubborn.

It's a pity that I didn't have a chance to punch and kick twice.

Yes, it may have something to do with this, that's why I'm so impulsive.

However, the results are still good.

I have more and more money in my Higashino strong account.

That's right, I just want to make money now!

The familiar JPG is about to appear.

Maybe Mr. Keigo saw through him, so the ghost didn't care anymore and just pouted.

In addition, a lot has happened.

The literary club of Tsuruoka High School is about to collapse.

Kanehara and Yamada Lisa, after the announcement, chose to transfer at the same time.

I didn't even say goodbye to my classmates.

In fact, this is a normal phenomenon, at the level of school, a celebrity, if it is a little famous, it is fine, but if it is too famous, it is not good.

Although I didn't get the Akutagawa prize, I was better than that.

The sales volume is much, much higher than that of Nagashima.

In fact, Nagashima was the biggest victim of this incident.

There is nothing wrong with his works, he is originally a funny author, and he also collaborates with many comic book authors to write jokes.

What an innocent hapless.

I heard that Kanehara was studying abroad, while Yamada Risa was back in Kyoto.

That's it, and I don't know if it's good or bad.

But at this time, the doorbell rang.

"Mr. Taiga?"

"Hah, aren't you welcome?"

"Why are you here?"

"Bring you some Okinawa specialties?"

"Huh?"

Higashino Qiang really didn't expect that it would be Mr. Taihe.

I haven't seen it for a long time, but now that I look at it, it's still greasy.

However, Higashino feels that this guy's temperament has changed a lot.

It used to be a slightly obscene kind, but now it's very spiritual.

What happened?

Anyway, please come in, just sit down.

"Saikyo!"

"This ......"

"You should understand, do you need me to talk more?"

"What do I understand?"

Higashino Qiang was in a state of semi-fake at this time.

What Mr. Okawa said...... This guy didn't make it clear before, did he?

I don't know if it's a friend out of nothing.

But I heard Mr. Dahe say: "Jin Yuanjing told me before going abroad, and I want to thank you very much." ”

These words ...

"Wait a minute, you guy, you're not going to tell my secret, are you?"

"Haha...... I don't!"

"It's strange that I can believe you. ”

Teacher Dahe continued to say very solemnly: "I really want to thank you, saikyo, she said, she had a good communication with her father, and her mood is different from before, this time studying abroad is not to hide anything, but to make arrangements, and I still want to thank you in the end." ”

thanked him twice, and Higashino felt inexplicably that this should be the share of Dahe and Jin Yuanjing.

So, am I completing the teacher's entrustment?

Higashino Qiang said: "I'm not afraid that this guy of yours will tell my secrets everywhere. ”

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Ohga laughed.

Even Mr. Keigo couldn't help but cast a look of contempt.

This kid has a too hard mouth.

Higashino finally asked, "Then will she still write?"

Teacher Dahe smiled: "She talked about it deliberately, and she also prepared one, which is even darker and sexier." ”

Higashino Qiang's expression is really ...... Is the senior sister good or not?

After chatting for a while, Dahe left, and the visit ended, very happy.

Higashino Qiang couldn't help but think of Yamada-san.,Her departure.。。。

Suddenly, Mr. Keigo said, "Saikyo, it's fun to write, isn't it?"

"Oh, what do you mean?"

"Why did you write it?"

"Mr. Keigo, are you old fools? Haven't I emphasized it many times?"

"You just want to make money? hahaha...... You duplicitous imp!"

"You're the ghost. ”

"Hahaha......"

No. 3, 2nd floor, Ivy Village, everything is as usual...

PS: I just saw that there are 10,000 rewards, don't say much, go all out to code words, today 4 is more guaranteed, I'll see if I can add more, thank you!
