- I don't like you, prove it for the rest of my life.

That night, in the garden of Sawamura's house, Yingli Li's words full of shame and determination were like an off-string arrow that hit Xia You's heart and left an indelible impression.

At that time, he was still stunned for a while, as if he was hallucinating, until Ying Lili took off his coat and stuffed it into his hand, turned around and ran home with a red face, and he came back to his senses.

…… I'm here, I've been confessed, right?

Probably.

No, I should say yes.

When a tsundere girl who has always been very thin-skinned plucked up the courage to kiss you secretly, and left a solemn declaration of 'a lifetime', in addition to confessing, Xia You really couldn't imagine what else could be the reason.

Speaking of which, this is really a confession that is very in line with Ying Lili's character, and it is as awkward as her, full of strong emotions unique to her.

- I obviously like it but I don't like it, I want to be together but I don't want to tell the truth.

However, I have to admit that this is indeed a great confession, and it is the second charming confession that makes Xia You feel heart-pounding so far.

As for the first word, of course, it was a long time ago, and that time, Mahime conveyed his heart to him at the recital.

That was the first time Xia You was confessed by a girl in his life, and he was naturally the most impressed.

To be honest, after harvesting the confession of the pear, in addition to the heartbeat, Xia You was actually quite moved.

There is no other reason, with Ying Lili's arrogant and awkward personality, let her take the initiative to do these things, it must have taken her a lot of effort, right?

Really, Xia You feels that she is too lucky, how can He De make such a girl fall in love?

For this reason, Xia You made up his mind that he must treat Yingli well and compensate her next.

Yet who would have thought.

…… Since that night, Ying Li Li blushes and bows her head when she sees him, and when she gets a little closer, she immediately turns around and runs away.

For this reason, Xia You couldn't find a chance to talk to her at all, so he could only cry and laugh.

But forget it, it's cute enough anyway. And people grow very much, considering that Yingli pear is thin and arrogant, there is really no need to be too urgent about her.

There is a way that is a long stream of water.

In short, it has already entered the palm of his hand, Xia You doesn't believe that Yingli can run away, and sooner or later she will eat her.

Since some time ago, with the song "Pure Land of Bliss", he defeated "A-rise" to advance to the lovelive national competition, and his popularity has been growing day by day. They are clearly just a campus idol group, and they have not yet debuted, but the amount of attention on Twitter has exploded a bunch of groups that have debuted for a long time.

However, as the saying goes, there are two sides to a coin, and the muse is on fire, which has both advantages and disadvantages.

The good thing is that with the popularity of the muse, the name of Otonogichan Gakuin has entered the eyes of more and more people, and the number of students who have expressed their intention to enroll in it is also increasing.

With so many new students planning to come and study in the coming year, for now, Otonogihan Gakuin has little to worry about being abolished.

I heard Minami Kotori say that her mother, who is also the chairman of Otonogi Hakuhan Academy, has recently changed her original idle appearance and is busy handling various official duties.

- According to her, the revocation resolution of the decision to abolish Otonogihan Academy will probably come down soon.

In this regard, everyone was naturally happy, especially the nine muses who were so happy that they cried. In this way, their hard work in the past six months has not been in vain, and they have successfully protected their beloved alma mater.

However, it is famous, in addition to the many benefits, the disadvantages are also obvious.

Since the popularity of Muse has soared, the nine of them have sometimes been recognized even when they go out, and then they are surrounded by groups and begging for autographs and group photos.

What's more, they bought flowers directly and gave them to them.

Fortunately, there are not many people who do this, and most of them are very cute girls, and if they are replaced by boys, the muse girls are really a little unbearable. Especially Haiwei, who has always been honest and shy, just thinking about it if she was surrounded by boys, she was so scared that she didn't want to go out.

In addition, the complicated affairs at the social level also brought a lot of pressure to the nine daughters of the muse.

Many agencies saw that Muse was on fire, and they had the momentum to win this year's lovelive, so they rushed over and wanted to sign them as their artist groups first.

This kind of thing is not uncommon.

It has been more than 10 years since the LoveLive competition was held, and almost every winner of LoveLive will choose to sign a contract with their favorite agency to become a real idol group in order to continue to pursue their acting dreams.

For example, last year's lovelive champion, "A-rise", was the case.

They had already signed a contract with the economic company, and when they participated in the last lovelive contest and happened to graduate from high school, they made their debut immediately.

For this reason, the agency that signed "A-rise" has spared no effort to cultivate them over the past year, hoping that they can defend their championship and take advantage of this hot momentum to debut and become a real idol group.

…… However, who would have thought that this beautiful plan would be disturbed by the muse that suddenly appeared.

Regardless of "A-rise", at present, due to the overtures of many brokerage companies, the pressure on the Muses is indeed very high.

It's inevitable.

Although they have completed the big comeback of the Jedi overtaking "A-rise", and they have gathered extremely high popularity, even if they are not inferior to real idol groups, but in essence, the nine of them are just ordinary female high school students, and even the most knowledgeable Mahime has rarely been exposed to these things.

For this reason, Xia You had to ask for some people from his father, all of whom were talents who specialized in dealing with these matters, and it was very simple for them to help solve these things.

As for whether the Muses will continue on this path in the future, and sign with a certain agency like "A-rise" to become a real idol group - this matter, Xia You didn't intervene much and remained silent.

It's up to them to decide.

But personally, he thinks this is most likely unlikely.

There are many reasons for this.

First of all, there are nine members of the Muses, and they are in three grades, which means that they can't graduate and debut at the same time as the members of "A-rise".

Secondly, as the only daughter of the Nishikino family, Mahime's future direction has long been determined - to become a doctor and then inherit the hospital. Similarly, there is Hai Wei, who also has to inherit her own Sonoda Dojo, so it is destined to be impossible to continue in the direction of idols.

Although the others don't have a family business to inherit, most of them have their own things to do, such as Kotori, who wants to study fashion design abroad, Eri, who wants to work in law, and Rin who wants to become a physical education teacher......

…… It is estimated that there are only a few people who will insist on being an idol in Muse, right?

When I think about it like this, I can't help but feel a little sad.

But it doesn't matter, even if the muse can't be maintained forever, Xia You believes that the feelings of the nine girls will definitely not be easily erased.

Of course, if they decide to continue to be idols, Xia You is also very supportive, and even considered simply getting a brokerage company for them.

After all, the Japanese entertainment industry is very deep, and if you mix with the simple confidence of these girls, most of them will be eaten to the point that there are no bones left, and even if you really mix up, you must have paid a lot of price.

And that's exactly what Xia You doesn't want to see, he hopes to open up a clean environment where the Muses can pursue their pure dreams.

All in all, if necessary, Xia You will definitely spare no effort to help.

- Take an oath in the name of the Lala!

Let's talk about the game production.

Although it was not as fast as Shiyu-senpai, who was in charge of writing the script, with the combined efforts of Eiri Riri, Mashiro, Rita and others, Kanon's original painting was also completed quickly.

The number of original drawings drawn before and after adds up, and there are more than forty or fifty in total, which is already a large-scale game.

And the work on the game's sound effects is also progressing slowly.

Since the end of the lovelive regional competition and successfully defeated "A-rise" to advance to the national competition, the Muses have focused most of their focus on making the game, working with Xia Yu, plus they have already recorded some of them, Kanon's tunes and voice acting were recorded in just a few weeks.

Of course, the efficiency can be so high, thanks to the fact that the muses are very powerful.

Although they have never learned dubbing systematically, they are all talented, and they often only need to try two or three times when recording.

At this point, Kanon's production is nearing completion, the script, the original art, and the music are all completed, and there are no big problems in the program, only some small bugs remain, and it will be no problem to debug it a few more times.

I have to say that the speed of game production is much faster than Xia You imagined. He had thought it would be close to early December before Kanon could barely finish.

After all, this game is so big.,The content is so rich that it doesn't belong to the level of a fanwork at all.,It's a very qualified commercial work.。

For this reason, under normal circumstances, Kanon would have to take at least half a year to a year to complete.

But who would have thought that it would only take them more than four months to do it.

But then again, it's not surprising that it's fast, you must know that none of the members of the club are simple, and everyone is very efficient. In addition, everyone is so energetic that they want to do a good job in this game, and it is rare to touch the fish, so they can finish Kanon before December.

And the completion of Kanon's production also means that An Yilun can finally show his talents.

He can neither write scripts nor draw original paintings, let alone dubbing, in the past, in addition to helping to type code, he was basically idle during club activities, either playing time, or helping to serve tea and water to buy snacks.

For this reason, when he finally waited for himself to give full play to his skills, An Yilun could also spare no effort to struggle. As a well-known blogger with hundreds of thousands of followers, he is very good at publicity.

Thanks to his efforts, in just a few days, Kanon quickly became popular on the Internet and became a hot topic at present.

Countless otaku are vying to discuss this work, which is already a hit before it is released.

Of course, An Yilun actually didn't spend much effort to promote, he just made a simple list of Kanon's productions, which has already attracted countless eyeballs.

Curator: Natsu Aoku

Script: Kasumi Shiko

Original art: Eiri Kashiwagi, Ruriya, Shiina Mashiro, Einz Worth Rita

Publicity: TAKI

Music: Natsu Aoku, Muse

Voiced by: Muse

Procedure: Megumi Kato

When An Yilun also announced the production list of Kanon, as he expected, it quickly caused a lot of discussion on the Internet, but most people thought it was nonsense.

After all, almost everyone in the above list is a very famous creator, and the person in charge of dubbing is the muse who is currently so popular.

Its lineup is luxurious enough to brighten everyone's eyes.

For this reason, there are many people who are skeptical about this, thinking that An Yilun is also joking, how can this kind of luxury lineup say that cooperation will cooperate.

However, after Xia You and others confirmed the news on Twitter and announced that they had formed a fandom club called [Wolf and Spice], everyone had to accept this really unbelievable fact.

What followed was a wave of explosive discussions, and the topic of Kanon reached a higher level, ranking in the top three of Twitter's hot search list for three consecutive days.

"I'll go, is this news actually true? I thought it was 100% used by others to bluff people's eyes!"

"To be honest, even though I've always been a fan of Taki and know that he rarely makes up false news to deceive people like some unscrupulous bloggers, I still didn't expect him to be true this time......"

", so many big guys cooperate, is this game going against the sky? Anyway, I must go and buy it in winter comic!"

"Sales 88,000, 88,000!"

In addition to the above discussions, there are many people who privately refer to Kanon's production lineup as the national team.

Of course, it's still a bit of an exaggeration to say this, after all, although Xia You, Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others are very famous, they are not the top creators in the industry in terms of age or qualifications.

But then again, considering that Xia You and others are all the best creators in the new generation of the industry, as long as nothing goes wrong, in a few years, they will all become leading writers in the industry.

Therefore, it is not too much of a problem to call Kanon the national team lineup.

In fact, after more than ten years, there are many otaku who come to archaeology and buy kanon to play.

For no other reason, this is the first work of the legendary club in the industry - [Wolf and Spices] at the beginning of its establishment, and at the same time, it is also the first cooperation between many bigwigs.

All in all.

Due to the luxurious creative lineup, Kanon was in the limelight for a while, and even when the prestigious "Rouge-Rouge" led by Akasaka Zhuyin announced their upcoming game for Winter Comic, it didn't overpower Kanon in terms of topical popularity.

It can be said that as of now, Kanon has become the most anticipated work of this winter comic.

Countless otaku are looking forward to the arrival of Winter Comic so that they can see what Kanon will be like.

☆

Recently, perhaps because it is approaching the end of the year, there are many things, and in addition to Kanon's unsold fire, there is another big event.

That's ...... The winners of the Medium and Long Awards have finally been announced!

This news was told to Xia Yu by Machida Yuanzi, and if she hadn't said it, Xia You would have almost forgotten about it for a while.

But this is inevitable, after all, it has been almost two months since he handed over "The Shape of Sound" to the library and asked them to revise it on his behalf.

During this time, there was no news about the big prize

The whole process was silent.

And Xia You didn't pay much attention to it, although it was the first time for him to participate in this kind of competition, but under the popularization of science by Machida Yuanzi and others, he learned that the review period for this kind of award was long.

——From the preliminary review, retrial, final review, and final review screening, it will take about one or two months, and if it is slow, it is not impossible to even three or four months.

For this reason, all participating authors should relax and wait.

As for Xia You's words, he was still quite anxious at first, and wanted to see the result as soon as possible, after all, "The Shape of Sound" was a new attempt by him - except for the plot reference to the original work in his previous life, the whole text was written by him word by word.

For this reason, if he can win the award in the big award, it proves that Xia You can write excellent works on his own even if he is not a copyist, which will be very helpful to him in his future life as a writer.

However, this feeling of anticipation quickly wore off after a few days.

Instead, due to his busy schedule, Xia You gradually forgot about it. It wasn't until Machida Enko called Xia You specifically to inform him that he suddenly remembered this, and it turned out that the award had already announced the list of winners!

At the same time, Machida Enko also brought great news to Xia You.

- "The Shape of Sound" won a silver award!

As an event that has been held for many years, the awards of the mid-length awards are clearly distinguished, and there are three gold awards, silver awards, bronze awards, and excellence awards, as well as a number of consolation prizes.

And the silver award won by Xia You's "The Shape of Sound" is roughly equivalent to the second prize when converted.

Although this result seems to be average, considering that the contestants are all top writers of the new generation, and Xia You is only sixteen years old and has debuted less than a year ago, it is quite golden.

You must know that except for Xia You, the youngest of the other winners are all in their early thirties, and some are even nearly forty years old, so they can be called middle-aged uncles.

It is only those writers of the older generation who have been active in the industry for more than 20 years who serve as judges of the awards that are qualified to call them young.

All in all, for Xia You, winning the silver award for "The Shape of Sound" is undoubtedly something he should be proud of.

And this incident, as expected, caused a considerable uproar in the light world, and many peers were very happy and honored that Xia You won the silver reward.

This is normal.

You must know that before, all the light writers who participated in the mid-length awards, let alone the silver awards, did not even win a consolation prize, and every time they went away with confidence, they returned disappointed.

And this time, Xia You won the award, which finally proves that even lightness, which is defined as relaxing and pleasant for readers, can write a very deep and serious story.

For this reason, many peers who were unhappy with Xia You in the past have changed the direction of the wind this time, and have praised Xia You on the Internet, saying that he has spoken out for light writers.

And Xia You's words are actually quite happy.

…… At least in this way, when he publishes a new book in the future, he shouldn't be hacked so badly, right?

As one of the winners, Natsu was naturally invited to the award ceremony, which was scheduled for Tuesday and the venue was in Tokyo.

In order to attend the ceremony, Xia You naturally had to buy a formal suit, so accompanied by Ayase and the others, he went to the mall one day and bought a neat suit.

Speaking of which, there is one more thing to be happy about recently, and that is ...... The five more glazed ones also won the award!

Of course, the award she won was not Xia You's participation in this medium-length award, but another award, but it is also very famous, and it is a fairly famous award in the industry.

Every year, it selects the best in the industry, and then selects a series of distinctive and bright works.

And "Friends of the Week" was honored to be selected.

The award to "Friends of the Week" is -

"Warm and plain writing, telling a very interesting story"

When she learned that she had won the award, she was stunned, feeling incredible, and thought that Machida Enko was joking with her.

It wasn't until she finally confirmed the authenticity of the news that Wugen Liuli felt ecstatic, she knew the industry very well, of course she knew how difficult it was to win this award, so that she didn't expect to be selected one day.

However, who would have thought that good luck would really befall her like this.

How can this not make the five more glasses feel happy?

Also, coincidentally, the award ceremony was also held in Tokyo, the same venue as the mid-length awards. As for the time, it is also very close, with a difference of less than two hours.

Of course, there is a reason why it is so coincidental.

- The person in charge of presenting the awards to the winners of these two ceremonies is the writer Shinobu Akiyama, a national treasure of Japan.

In the past, although Shinobu Akiyama often received such invitations, he basically refused neatly, but this time he agreed for some reason, and he should have two more at once.

For this reason, the association, which was in charge of the two award ceremonies, specially set the location nearby in order to cooperate with Shinobu Akiyama's actions. As for the time, it is two hours apart.

In this way, Shinobu Akiyama can go to another after attending one award ceremony. And there is no possibility of a crash.

There was no dissatisfaction with this, but they were very excited because Shinobu Akiyama was here, after all, she was the most legendary writer in Japan, and I don't know how many people wanted to see her.

Like Xia You, when the time comes, you have to go to the five watches of the award ceremony, and you have to buy a formal suit.

For this reason, everyone went out again and spent a day choosing a beautiful dress for her that suited her perfectly.

As for the money to buy a dress, don't worry.

Some time ago, Kadokawa Bunko sent the royalties of "Friends of the Week" to Gogen Ruri, although she gave most of the money to her parents to subsidize the family, but the remaining part of the money was still enough for her to buy a dress.

By the way, I heard Wugen Liuli say that when she handed over the manuscript fee to her parents, they stayed for ten minutes, and even thought that their daughter had gone to rob the bank.

Afterwards, even if the information was confirmed from the fifth watch Liuli, the fifth watch's father still felt unbelievable and had a very complicated mood.

…… He wants his daughter to be more angry, but this seems to be too angry!

His daughter's monthly manuscript fee is more than his annual salary combined, so what should he say as a father?

☆

With a flick of your fingers.

Time passes.

Soon it was award day.

Tokyo.

The capital of Japan and one of the most prosperous cities in the world.

At night, the city is not dark, but rather bewitching and enchanting against the backdrop of traffic and neon lights, it looks far deeper than during the day, as if you can inadvertently lose yourself in the city.

As a prestigious event, the award ceremony was very grand, and the award ceremony was very grand, and the entire floor was covered in a high-end hotel, and only the journalists, media, and writers who had received invitations were allowed to enter and leave freely.

At the ceremony, everyone was dressed in elegant formal attire, men in suits and leather shoes, women in long skirts, they held wine glasses and talked and laughed, and there were many snacks and drinks on both sides for everyone to use.

Xia You, on the other hand, was sitting casually in the corner of the hall, holding a goblet in his hand, and the red liquid shook gently, revealing a bewitching color.

It's a very low concentration wine with no ingredients, so you don't have to worry about getting drunk.

"I'm really not used to this kind of place......

Taking a sip of red wine, Xia You raised his head, looking at the scene in front of him as if the upper class people were dealing with each other, he muttered quietly.

However, as one of the winners, he must be present unless there is a special reason, otherwise it will be disrespectful to this traditional competition and the teachers who are responsible for serving as judges.

But even if he was there, there was nothing to do, only when the host read his name, he went to the stage to accept the award step by step, and then thanked him.

And only when he is on stage, can he attract the attention of media reporters, and when he goes, he will immediately be ignored as a transparent person.

Of course, Xia You is not the only one who has suffered such a snub, but also many other winners.

Even the writer who won this year's big prize was ignored after receiving the award, and few reporters interviewed him.

This is also unavoidable.

As one of Japan's top writers of the new generation, they are indeed very popular, and every book they publish can achieve excellent sales figures, but these achievements are not worth mentioning in front of the older generation of writers who are responsible for serving as judges for the big awards.

They have been active in the industry for more than 20 years, and they are the real humanoid money printing machines, and any thing they write can arouse the fanatical pursuit of readers.

Among them, it is not impossible for a book to sell tens of millions of copies.

For this reason, although the purpose of this award ceremony is to award awards to the younger generation of winners, in fact, the real protagonists are these prestigious judges and teachers.

However, Xia You has nothing to disagree with, he has always disliked being in the limelight, he is happy to be leisurely, and he sits alone in the corner and drinks slowly.

(There is a change in the evening)
