"Well, I'm sorry, I was wrong! I should call you Higashino-sensei. Come to think of it, this time the teacher just wants me to help with the staff, which of the two endings is better?"

"......" Higashino nodded with a flat face.

To tell the truth, he was already smiling in his heart.

I'm Higashino Qiang, and now I'm 'Higashino Sensei', publishing, participating in the Ranbu Awards, these are the little things.

I almost couldn't suppress the excitement in my heart.

Naturally, Hizuki didn't know Higashino-sensei's inner activities, and he still thought about novels.

It would be wrong to say that "After School" is the best novel available.

However, it must be admitted that this novel is very good.

Especially this second ending.

In fact, there are rules to follow in our traditional literature, for example, in terms of ending, it is a tragedy.

Happy ending, that's a film and television drama.

Traditional literature, but the kind that can leave traces in the history of human literature, is mostly a tragic end.

Because tragedy can deeply shock the reader's heart.

Even this kind of law is taught to students in the literature department of the university.

Both endings of "After School" are actually okay.

In the first ending, two people who love each other have no way to be together, and this helplessness is also a tragedy.

The second ending is much more complicated.

The death of the actor is also a tragedy in itself, and it seems to be a misunderstanding to do this, but there is a profound tragic logic in it.

Aso-sensei knew that her relationship with Maejima was taboo.,So,She herself has some self-destructive tendencies.。

And even more profound is the student's this, aid, jiaoji.

This incident really made the RB people blush a little, but there was no way, there was such a phenomenon for a long time.

At present, novels, comics, film and television dramas have many exposure of this phenomenon...... Some are more forbidden than eighteen prohibitions.

By the way, there's also "Initial D".

No matter how fast Tuohai's 86 is, it can't catch up with Uncle's Mercedes-Benz. . .

Maybe this topic is not new, but what Mr. Higashino wrote is shocking and profound enough.

WHAT IS ...

"It's despair, isn't it? Mr. Higashino wanted to write about the desperation of some of the students at the moment. "Hisagi emphasized the word 'despair' very solemnly.

This society is solidified.

Only a very small number of people have the opportunity to change their lives.

Most people have no way to make any changes, and even more people are simply being demoted.

Hisagi felt that he had discovered something in the book "After School", and it was likely that Higashino-sensei was writing this school mystery story to expose social issues.

He looked eagerly at Higashino-sensei across from him.

However, Higashino Qiang shook his head.

This made Hiagi even more surprised, could it be that he was wrong?

But I heard Higashino Qiang say in an indifferent tone: "Edit Higi, actually, I used tricks on you. ”

"Huh?" Hisagi was stunned.

"It's okay to call it a trap. Higashino Qiang continued: "You should have noticed, this manuscript is clearly written to be voted for you. ”

Hiagi nodded...... That's right, he had some doubts about this in his mind.

Now, it's time for answers.

Higashino Qiang said: "From beginning to end, I was for one thing, well, or strictly two things, in the novel "After School", I did write two endings, but these two endings, I have my own judgment.

But, the real key, one is publishing, and the other is that I want to compete with this novel for the Ranbu prize. ”

When Hisagi heard this, he was still a little dazed, because in his opinion, wasn't this a normal thing?

Higashino Qiang could see it, but he still shook his head, and continued: "Editor Hisagi, what I want is not ordinary publishing. Of course, this is naturally a fair competition, but in terms of publishing, I hope that your company, and the editor, can help me to the greatest extent. ”

"This ......," Hisagi asked, somewhat confused, "What does the maximum mean?"

Higashino Qiang pointed to the stack of mystery novels, and then said: "Those novels, I bought them not long ago, I will introduce myself again, my name is Higashino strongest, I am a middle school student in Okinawa Island Osato, I will enter high school next year, but my family's financial situation does not support me to enter a private high school." ”

No one would have imagined that Higashino Qiang would tell his true situation.

And Hiagi was simply fascinated by it, even more wonderful than the novel.

Higashino Qiang talked about these practical conditions.

The family is poor.

His father even decided to mortgage the grocery store to support Higashino Qiang's studies.

That's why my father did that to you like that.

However, I, Mr. Higashino, have a solution of my own.

Write novels to earn remuneration, so that tuition fees are settled.

When he said this, Hiagi couldn't help but let out an exclamation of 'Si Guoyi'.

But the father of the Higashino family disagreed, he felt that writing novels was not very reliable, especially a novel written by a child, could it really be sold for money?

Higashino Qiang, there is a solution.

"Mr. Aki, you're here, so it's much easier for my father. But what about the others? What about people outside of Okinawa?"

This question made Hisagi suddenly startled.

Higashino-sensei was so powerful that he actually thought of this.

"So......" Higashino Qiang said directly without delay, "I hope that the editor of you and the publishing house will hide my true identity, that is, "After School" will be published, or, I will publish works in the future, and the authors of these works are also my information, and do not disclose them." ”

When Hisagi heard this, he suddenly realized: "Mysterious novelist...... This is likely to boost sales!"

Higashino nodded, but shook his head again.

It's weird, Hiagi really can't read it.

Higashino then pointed to these two endings, one by one.

Hisagi followed Higashino-sensei's fingers, and he looked and looked, and thought and thought.

Suddenly.

"I understand! I understand this time!" Hisagi's eyes widened, and he said excitedly: "These two endings are actually two choices! If Higashino-sensei's identity is a middle school student novelist, then, you have to use ending one, which is in line with Higashino-sensei's identity! And if Higashino-sensei is a mystery novelist, ending two is completely OK! Ending two is more in line with the ...... that a mystery novelist can write."

Hisagi was so excited, he didn't expect that the child in front of him was ...... No, he's Higashino-sensei!

If it is considered profound and shocking, it is obvious that the ending is weaker.

But what if this ending was written by a middle school student?

That's pretty good.

The second ending is significantly stronger, which does not conform to people's perception of a middle school student.

In the minds of RB people, a child who can write such a terrible ending is definitely a monster.

Therefore, as long as Higashino-sensei's identity is exposed, it can't be used.

Moreover, the setting of a mystery novelist will indeed play a role in the sales of novels.

That's why, just now, Mr. Higashino nodded and shook his head at the same time.

Italy now has a mysterious female writer, the author of "Nasty Love", Hélène Ferret, and no one knows who she is.

But Jiumu was speechless for a while, and there was still hesitation on his face.

Higashino Qiang said again at this time: "Edit Hisagi, do you remember the story of Ichiran Ramen?"

After hearing this, Hiagi immediately nodded heavily and said, "Teacher! I understand! I must use ending two! The teacher will also be the most mysterious writer in RB! I, Hisagi Masaki, swear by my life that I will definitely help the teacher achieve this!"

In an instant, the dust settled.

Why?

The story of Ichiran Ramen mentioned by Higashino Qiang can be said to be a household name in RB.

Now Ichiran Ramen is famous, and this is all thanks to the contemporary helmsman, his name is Yoshitomi, and the key is that he has a particularly classic story.

At that time, as an apprentice, Yoshitomi used to make noodles for the same customer for three consecutive days, and for these three days, the three bowls of noodles were all completed by Yoshitomo, and there was no difference, they were all Hakata ramen, and they were all exactly the same way.

However, during these three days, as long as Yoshitomi said that he made this noodle, the guest would say, 'You didn't do a good job,' and if he said that the noodle was made by the master, the guest would smile with satisfaction.

So, Yoshitomi thought of what Ichiran ramen looks like now.

There is a small table for one person, and there is a bowl of ramen in front of it, which the chef and waiter can't see, and there are even partitions on both sides.

It means that you can enjoy the ramen in front of you without any other distractions.

With such a bizarre form of dining, Ichiran ramen is on fire.

But who still can't understand this story?

RB people are such virtuous people, and they look down on young people in various ways.

The whole society is ranked by seniority.

Higashino-sensei used this story to make Hisaki make up his mind.

However, Hisashi asked, "Higashino-sensei, is it going to be so mysterious?"

This is a normal problem.

Higashino Qiang said a very strange thing, "Sure enough, the high-rise buildings are all in big cities." ”

If ordinary people listen to it, they will be absolutely confused.

But, as a practitioner in the publishing industry, Hisaki immediately laughed, "Higashino-sensei likes the works of Akira Toriyama, that, I also like Katsura Masa-sensei, haha......"

Forget about Akira Toriyama, how can there be Katsura Masato and the teacher?

But Higashino Qiang hadn't finished speaking, and said another strange sentence, "Will Fuyuma choose Xiaoli?" or Mieko?"

If others listen to it, I'm afraid they will immediately show a lewd smile and even blame it.

Mr. Higashino, you are not yet sixteen years old this year, and you actually read eighteen forbidden comics!

Fuyuma, Rei, Mieko, these three names can only appear in one manga, "Sakura Communication".

The famous eighteen forbidden works of tourists.

Hisagi was completely different, and said seriously: "It turns out that Mr. Higashino wants to study in Tokyo." ”

Higashino Qiang, smiled and nodded.

He just talked about two stalks, these two stalks, and made his purpose clear.

High-rise buildings, this is a joke made by Akira Toriyama and his friend Gui Zhenghe, saying that his friend is a countryman.

The synopsis of the manga "Sakura Correspondence" is that Fuyuma, a foreigner, went to Tokyo to study, and he pretended to be a college student and wanted to soak in Mieko, but unfortunately, he never had enough money to go to university, and he couldn't get into a national university. Xiaoli, a female high student, is very good to Dongma, but Dongma is a scumbag.

In short, it is the story of RB slings firing guns everywhere in Tokyo at the end of the last century.

He Higashino Qiang is a countryman, and he just wants to go to Tokyo to study like Dongma, and even his economic conditions at this time are not as good as Dongma.

It's tiring to talk like this, but Higashino is strong and he's a genius Higashino teacher now.

That's it.

Mr. Higashino felt bitter in his heart, it is not easy to be a genius, and it is even more difficult to pretend to be a genius.

Fortunately, Hisaki Soto, who is in the publishing industry, understands, "High schools in Tokyo are indeed much better than those in Okinawa, and Higashino-sensei, I can help when the time comes." ”

"Thank you. Higashino nodded, but then said very blandly, "High school is just a process, and my answer is in Todai." ”

This is still a bit mysterious.

Hiagi was momentarily stunned.

Higashino didn't seem to notice Hisagi's reaction at all, and he continued:

"The moment I was admitted to the University of Tokyo was when I revealed my identity. ”

It turned out to be so!

Hiagi was stupid, and the shock to him at this moment was stronger than the ending of the previous novel.

The kid in front of him...... No, he's Higashino-sensei.

He's a genius!

Only a genius could come up with such a plan.

PS: Thank you! There is another helmsman, thank you very much! I am even a little scared of the black car, not to say much, good code words, just ask everyone not to worry, it will definitely break out on the shelf, thank you very much.
