On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the village book rental house opened its doors in the early afternoon.

Honju Kosuzu did not hang out the license plate in the business, but went straight to the Suzuna-an.

A woman with chestnut hair and eyes seemed to notice her and followed.

"Yo, Suzu, opened so early this year?"

"Mr. Yuzo?"

Tanuki ten changes, walking in the world and hiding his identity is a very easy task, but as the leader of the tanuki, the great youkai Niyan Yuzo is not obsessed with this.

In the more than a year since they met, the contact with Xiao Ling has never changed his posture. Because of "an accident", his identity was revealed.,But maybe I didn't intend to hide it in the first place.,Maybe it's to see how Suzu reacts to the monster...... Tanuki youkai did not stop contact with the girl because of this.

"No, I have something to do today, so I'll come here temporarily. As he spoke, he took out an inkstone from the compartment under the counter.

Seeing the girl grinding the ink on her own, Eryan Yuzo thought it was interesting, and leaned his elbows on the table and asked:

"Aren't they all using dipping pens now? Why do you still use this, and what important letters do you want to write?"

Suzu nodded.

"Eh-that's it," Eryan Yuzang thought for a moment, and then smiled, "However, if you want to let the old man leave by himself, it's too much to think about it~ Youkai don't care so much about human thoughts." ”

Wandering around in the people today, seeing the small bell of the Honju was an unintentional move, to put it bluntly, there is nothing important, but ......

"Don't expect a wicked youkai who takes pleasure in embarrassing others to be "interesting". ”

Honju Kosuzu did not waver because of this, and continued to grind on his hands: "As long as Mr. Yuzo doesn't come over to look at it, after all, it's a letter to someone else...... It's not "fun", it's common sense. ”

"What's the big deal, it's not that you can't guess. The tanuki monster stood in front of the bookshelf not far away, pretending to read the bibliography while observing the girl who was half-blocked by the book counter.

Honju Suzu laid out the paper, and the slender brush was slightly dipped in ink.

"It's the one—the long-cherished Mr. Prince Charming—right?"

Honju Xiaoling was about to press down the tip of the pen for a moment, frowning slightly.

Then I put pen to paper again.

At the same time, a calm voice came: "Did Mr. Yuzo misunderstand something, why do I have to write to him?"

"Tsk, the reaction is very subtle. Failing to swindle the information, Eryan took out a novel from the bookshelf—neat and beautiful dipped pen handwriting.

Today's dissemination of classics in the world has long since taken the form of printing and publishing, but Suzuna-an still retains a large number of hand-copied novels, which is also a major feature. This kind of handmade text is sometimes more emotional and heart-to-heart than printing.

"Is Suzutaro's short story ...... 'Unattainable'?" said Niyan as he turned the pages of the book.

Honju glanced at the tanuki monster in front of the bookshelf, then pushed down the round-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose and moved his gaze back to the table: "That one...... Didn't Mr. Yuzo read it?"

"I've read it, but it's just ...... It's weird, this kind of ...... It's not like a text that ordinary girls can write. ”

"Let's take it as Mr. Yuzo's compliment. ”

“…… It's true, ordinary girls wouldn't talk to big monsters like that," Eryan said with a smile, "Suzu, do you know that your current appearance is completely different from last year. ”

"Isn't this kind of thing common," Motoi replied without stopping, "How short is the life span of human beings, but there is no room for innocence like youkai." ”

"Naïve...... For such a description, Eryan Yizang didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Do what you like, don't do what you don't like, don't stay in things, don't lose your heart, think about it, love and hate clearly...... It's so nice," Motoi Suzu seemed to be smiling, and as if sighing, "Human, you can't do it." ”

"Suzu...... Your mind is a bit off-track," a strange light flashed in the tanuki monster's eyes, "Could it be ...... Are you planning to become a youkai?"

"Not at all, humans are always looking ahead, and I can't leave all of this behind as a human being. ”

"What shall I say...... I'm only sixteen years old this year, but I have the same conversation and demeanor as an adult," Eryan said with a smile, "However, I can tell that you are more like you're pretending to be calm." ”

"Sixteen years old, that's already an adult. ”

"Oh, speaking of which, the old decay has actually been studied...... In many worlds out there, the more advanced the civilization, the later the date of adulthood. Sixteen years old, which is considered decent...... In some places, the stage of maturity of girls' secondary sexual characteristics is even set as ......"

"Please stop telling jokes in front of shy girls. ”

“…… Meat jokes?" Eryan Yizang took five seconds to react, and then laughed and said, "If you want to talk about meat jokes, you can't understand an untrained girl!"

"I didn't kick Mr. Yuzo out of the door, not to hear you make fun of me. ”

"Obviously, you brought up the topic of meat jokes first. ”

"Mr. Yuzo!" Suzu was still writing the letter with her head down, but the tone of her mouth became a little heavier.

"Alright, let's get down to business," the tanuki closed the pages of the book, "Have you heard about it, there has been a lot of commotion in the village in the past two days." ”

"Mr. Yuzo is saying, those samurai?" Motoi Kosuzu paused, thought for a moment, and asked, "The major clans made such a move as if they had agreed upon it. Don't...... It's also related to the mutation at the New Year's Festival?"

"On the night of the New Year's Festival, Suzu seems to be at the shrine, right? ”

“…… By this way?"

"Well, that's it, the old man has changed into the appearance of you, Suzu. ”

Motoi Xiaosuzu put down the brush, stood up from the desk at the front desk, leaned forward with both hands, and smiled kindly: "...... Forgive me the liberty of asking, has Mr. Yuzo done anything with my identity?"

"It's just a bystander, a bystander...... but his face suddenly became gloomy, "Although the identity has been recognized, it makes the old man a little worried." ”

“…… Is it?"

"That's it. ”

"It's suspicious, Mr. Yuzo, it's not surprising that you misunderstood me, and if you came into contact with that guy, you would do anything out of the ordinary, right?"

"I haven't had time to do it yet, ahem...... The old man means, how can it be done, this common sense is still there, not to mention that the identity was soon discovered. ”

"Hmph, it's different from that time when Mr. Yuzo was deliberately discovered by me, and this time it was deliberately hidden but exposed...... You must be in a bad mood, right?"

"Speaking of which, there is one thing ......" Eryan Yuzo recalled for two seconds, and suddenly laughed, "Although that guy said a lot of plausible inferences and said that he confirmed the identity of the old man, it was by no means 100% conclusive evidence. ”

“……？”

"Until then, the old man had turned into a little bell and you didn't show any flaws, and in that case he suddenly lifted the skirt that was supposed to be you...... In other words, he must have prepared in his heart for something – that it is not the old age that is present, but the consciousness of you. ”

“……”

Half a minute later, Honju Xiaosuzu seemed to be deflated, and sat back at the table and buried his head: "Please don't do anything superfluous." ”

"It's innocent...... I'm just doing a very ordinary action, and suddenly I'm being treated like that, I can only blame that guy for not being okay?"

“…… Forget it," it seems that the girl who has exhausted her strength is not going to talk about it anymore, "If the "samurai incident" of the past two days is related to the mutation of the New Year's Festival...... Did that guy do something again?"

"It's not surprising, is it?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he was at the shrine in the second half of the night, that is, he left the club in the first half of the night, solved the mutation, and did he have any agreement with the family?"

The little bell who seemed to have calmed down began to put pen to paper again.

"It is indeed a very strange change, and it is only through many changes in the past two days that I found out some news...... This is the core inside story that even the reporters of Youkai Mountain can't find. ”

"Come on, don't sell it. ”

"How about the human clan wanting to improve their relationship with youkai, doesn't that sound ridiculous?"

Motoju Xiaoling pondered for a long time and replied, "Is this Mo Ming's idea?...... It's not so much ridiculous as naïve. ”

"But what about the saying that the promotion of great causes always requires some naivety?"

"Is it great?" "Honju Kosuzu stopped writing, thought for a moment, and said, "The ...... in Mr. Yuzo's hand, 'No Bonding', is actually a statement I saw in a comic book in the outside world, and it was meant to be an exhortation to human beings...... However, this short story of mine is actually a piece of advice for youkai. ”

"Do you fall in love with a monster woman who is a human writer and a tragic story of self-destruction after the death of a writer......

"Needless to say, there are yokai with evil intentions, but if there really are yokai with good intentions towards humans, I actually want to show them in this book. ”

Eryan Yuzang groaned, "In other words...... Don't you support the model of humans and youkai getting along?"

"It's not that clear, it's just ......" Motoju shook his head, "All races are actually selfish...... Humans are the only ones who always justify and even unconsciously make it so unfair to the monsters that they don't know what they've done to trouble others. ”

"In other words, if humans have enough consciousness to interact with youkai, don't you think there's anything wrong with that?"

"Is it enlightened enough...... Do you mean 'giving up your human identity and becoming a monster of your kind', this level of enlightenment?" asked Motoi Suzu rhetorically.

“…… I can't answer that," Eryan smiled bitterly, "but I have a feeling, is it true that Suzu wants to say that he is old?

"No, Mr. Yuzo, I'm just curious, big monsters usually don't take the initiative to get involved with humans, so why are you interested in a child like me?"

The tanuki monster couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "One will say that he is an adult, and the other will call himself a child, is he sixteen years old...... It's a tough age to deal with. ”

"But, Xiao Ling, don't be presumptuous, there are not many people who can be looked at and think are interesting by the old man...... To be able to write such a book, it's hard to treat you as a low-level child anymore. ”

Moju Xiaoling tilted her head: "So...... What about Ah Qiu? If you want to say that there is no one else in Gensook, there is no one else in Gensukyo, right? She has also written many, many interesting works, so why not her?"

Eryan Yuzo couldn't help but laugh when he heard this name: "Little Suzu, because you are human beings of the same age, there are many things that you haven't noticed......"

"As a tanuki monster, the old man is very sensitive to the attitude of others, and it is not surprising that the young lady who is the head of the barnyard field hates the existence of the whole concept of "monster" in her heart...... It's a little subtle, and although she barely reveals any flaws from her superficial posture, she can feel it through old decay. ”

Xiao Ling's eyes couldn't help but widen: "You say...... Ah Qiu hates youkai?"

""Nasty" is actually a very slight wording in terms of tone......"

"I don't really understand your position, but make it clear in advance, don't think about any disadvantage to Ah Qiu? Today's incident may tell Ah Qiu that there is a tanuki monster named Eryan Yuzo who may be playing something wrong. ”

"Okay, the old man doesn't have time to find himself boring, the two of us have actually seen it a long time ago," Eryan Yuzang shrugged, "If she herself is a stronger and unyielding personality, the old man will naturally be interested in her...... It's a pity that it's a calm and sensible, and sickly girl. ”

"Compared to a genius scholar with a single glance, you are the type that is more interested in the old decay. ”

"Although I want to say that I am happy to win Aqiu once, I really can't be happy because of this...... Do humans get along with youkai? ”

Honju Kosuzu picked up the letterhead, blew it, and set it aside.

He took out another envelope and put pen to paper.

PS: It's time for the second round of voting to come forward, readers who support this book!Click on the "2nd ******** Annual Inventory" on the homepage, click on the "Best Fan Works of the Year" column at the bottom of the category, and vote for this book.

This round of voting is no longer related to the data of the book, only related to the number of people, one person, one vote, you can vote once a day, for 7 days (voting started yesterday, until the end of the 15th), from this point of view, the disadvantage of this book is very large, although there are many iron fans to trivial daily in a stage of support, but this round of only 1 vote per person per day, and then you can only watch other books surpass us 2333.

The current results are not ideal, there are more than 300 people in the book friend group, and there are more than 200 votes in two days, indicating that there are only about 100 people voting for this book.

If you can get the top three in this event, there will be additional recommendation columns, which will be a great opportunity for trivial daily life, and this is a rare opportunity to look at word-of-mouth without looking at turnover.

Interestingly, the editor approached me and asked me to write a canvassing slogan, which is probably the process.

—————————————

Editor: Congratulations on being selected for the second round, please write a summary of the canvassing of "Trivial Daily".

Me: Is there a request for how many words?

Edit: Not required.

Me: I mean, if you want me to write a tweet for this book, it should start with 5,000 words, so that's okay?

Edit: Restraint.

Me: OK (Start codeword).

After 10 minutes, the editor: asked, about 50~500 words.

Me: Okay. (about 1,000 words deleted)

(Send to editor, word count: 499)

Me: I guess that's restraint.

Edit:......

—————————————

It's been almost four years since this book was published, and to be honest, it's a rare opportunity...... I want to take advantage of this promotion.

Guoba has actually been in a hurry, and there is no channel to promote this book so that more people know about it...... In the past, I wrote a push book, posted in the Oriental Bar, Fan Fiction Bar and other places, and basically sank to the second page within five replies...... I remember that at the beginning, a book friend with the ID RK99 helped me write a long review in Longkong, and it also caused a discussion, which was very happy, and I don't know if this book friend is still paying attention to this book now, I can't help but sigh.

In addition to the author himself, there are many book friends (both those who have joined the group and those who have not) are also actively helping to promote the book, and the bookkee's account sometimes receives private chats about book review discussions...... It feels like a pleasure.

How to say it, it's rare to have an opportunity to face many unknown readers, but the limit of 500 words is too short, and there is no way to cut even one sentence out to canvass for votes, just say it here, if you like this book, don't forget to vote every day~

PS: By the way, at the end of last year, I asked a very powerful artist in District 11 to draw the next cover of the book, and I said that I was busy with the C93 project, and I finally replied a few days ago and promised to start drawing, and I will see the new cover at the end of January, so stay tuned!
