Ayase's affair was only a trivial episode for Kazuya after all, so although he didn't understand Ayase's current situation, Kazuya still decided to go to Eiri Ri's house to meet Kirino first.
And this is also the first time he has walked into Ying Lili's house since he quarreled with Ying Lili.
Go to your girlfriend's house to visit, but the ultimate goal is for another girl, and to meet this girl, you should get your girlfriend's acquiescence. This kind of description, which looks like a harem plot at first glance, happened to Kazuya, but it made Kazuya feel so ironic. Because, the current plot is not the kind of light comedy plot that he likes to see, what he has to face is something heavier.
It was Kirino who came out to greet Kazuya, not Eiri herself, which made Kazuya a little relieved and made his mood a little lower. He was relieved because he didn't have to meet with Ying Li Pear alone, and now he didn't know how to talk to each other when he was alone with Ying Li Li, and he was depressed because he let Kirino come out to greet him, which meant that Ying Li Li didn't want to reconcile with him yet.
I don't know if it's my own delusion.,Kazuya feels that compared to when he met him more than a month ago,Kirino's round face looks a little thinner.,But,Given that even Ayase, who gets along with Kirino day and night, didn't find that Kirino was too abnormal.,That can only prove that Kirino is still very good at adjusting to his own psychology.,So,And also more willing to believe that this idea of his own is a delusion.γ
Same as when talking to himself on the phone,Kirino's face did not show the arrogant and free atmosphere that often appeared in the face of himself in the past.,It's a little more respect for the juniors when facing the seniors.,Although there's no problem with this approach.,But he's used to Kirino being "lawless" in front of him.,Looking at such Kirino for a while.,There's no way to connect her with the child he knows.γ
"Now, Kirino, how are you doing?" Kazuya asked a little awkwardly.
"It's good, it's much better than Aragaki Senpai imagined."
is still that kind of quiet attitude, and this quiet attitude has made He also a little collapsed. Whether it's Kirino who can't show his true state because he's too depressed, or because he realizes the gap with his own identity and estranges himself, it's not a good thing for Kazuya.
I can only hope that the next thing I said can adjust her emotions.
"Okay, Kirino, the next thing I'm going to talk about is about your novel last time, although I was sorry for you last time, but this time-"
"-If you can, Aragaki senior, can we discuss this matter together when Eiri Senpai is present? After all, from beginning to end, we were all three of us negotiating together, weren't we? Kirino interrupted Kazuya's words and asked seriously.
"Well, if you say so." Kazuya looked at this strange Kirino in a daze, and finally said helplessly
And it's not the first time I've come to Ying Lili's room, but in my own room, Ying Lili is dressed so formally, this is the first time, she didn't wear the green casual clothes she was used to at home, but put on a yellow coat when she went out or when she met guests, and her hair was not draped over her shoulders in a mess, but she combed it into her usual double ponytail hairstyle. Everyone can feel it.
However, it can only come one by one. Solve Kirino's problem first, and then explain my thoughts to Eiri Riri, right? Kazuya shook his head and thought helplessly.
"So, I think everyone should know that this time I want to discuss Kirino's novel, and I think of a remedy for the publication of Kirino's novel. Kirino said that this topic has always been discussed by the three of us together, so this time I think we can continue to discuss it. β
After listening to Kazuya's words, Eiri and Kirino glanced at each other and did not express an attitude of opposition, which also made Kazuya's mood a little more uplifted.
"Of course, after the last failure at the Mysterious Library, we don't need to be cheeky to go to Machida, we have completely torn our faces with them, and if we want to get the novel published, the main target is other libraries, such as the Fantastic Library where I am now."
"Will Fantastic Bunko give me this chance?" Kirino looked up with a puzzled expression
"I've just discussed this with the editor of the library, and he has agreed to at least give your novel a chance to be reviewed, from my personal point of view, the possibility of your novel being published through the review is quite high, and we are all very clear about the advantages, your huge popularity on the Internet, itself is the best reliance on the publication of novels, the disadvantages of the last time I negotiated with Mystery Library, this time it is almost gone, Fantastic Library itself has strong experience and contacts in this aspect of novel publishing, Therefore, as long as you decide to publish it, you can promote it smoothly without using too many resources, and it will not be overstretched like the Mystery Library. Kazuya nodded, revealing a confident expression.
Then, looking at the thoughtful expressions of Eiri and Kirino, he continued: "And, we all know that the last time Kirino novels were not published, it was because Machida's made a stumbling block, this time, the editor-in-chief of Fantastic Bunko will not intervene in this issue, if it is just a pure comparison of the strength of the novel, Kirino's novel has no disadvantage." At the same time, personally, I feel that Fantastic Bunko has another reason to accept Kirino novels, and that is that it can be used to almost further attack Mystery Bunko. β
"According to you, when the Mystery Library didn't succeed, wouldn't it be okay to go to the Fantastic Library in the first place? Why bother until now? Eiri Asahaya asked with a distrustful expression.
"At that time, I didn't have much say in Fantastic Library, but now it's different." Kazuya's expression became slightly embarrassed and said.
"Oh, it seems that the new new novel writer Mr. Aragaki is in the limelight!" Eriri smiled with a smile that she didn't know whether it was sarcasm or appreciation, which made Kazuya's expression even more overwhelmed.
"All in all, Kirino, I've analyzed the advantages, if you have to say the disadvantages, it's that it's absolutely impossible for you to become a more dominant writer in the fantastic library, after all, there are too many gods there, but if you only consider the opportunity to publish a novel, then I've already given you a good opportunity."
"I see." Kirino nodded and said.
"Okay, I'm going to contact the editor-in-chief, the manuscript of your novel is still there, just a few days, I can take you to meet with the editor-in-chief of Fantastic Library-"
"I'm sorry, Aragaki Senpai, but my answer is no." However, just as Kazuya was excitedly making plans for Kirino, Kirino's unexpected answer reached Kazuya's ears.
"Refusal? Why refuse? Looking at Kirino's resolute expression, Kazuya was stunned, "Do you still want to take advantage of this almost light novel debut and become a popular writer in the library?" It's still too hard to do thatβ"
"That's not what I meant, Aragaki Senpai," Kirino shook her head and said, "I just don't want to use your recommendation to achieve this result." β
"My recommendation?"
"That's right, Aragaki Senpai's recommendation," Kirino nodded and continued, "As Eiri Senpai just said, Aragaki Senpai is now making his light novel debut, and his grades are also good, so he is an excellent writer, right?" So, as long as it's a work that you recommend that isn't too bad, Fantastic Library is naturally happy to give you a favor, isn't it? But is it because of the excellence of my novel that led to the publication? No, it's because of the recommendation of my seniors, not my own efforts. β
Kazuya looked at Kirino stunned, he knew that this girl had her own extra persistence in many aspects, but he didn't realize at all that Kirino actually had such a high self-esteem in this kind of thing.
"Kirino, don't play such a petty temper at this time," Kazuya tried to persuade Kirino, "If your novel can be liked by Mystery Library, that in itself means that your novel has been recognized enough, so it doesn't matter whether Fantastic Library was published because of your novel itself, or because of my recommendation, right?" Now, the important thing is to get the novel published, isn't it? β
"So, why does Aragaki think that I have to publish my novel now?" Kirino Chao Kazuya threw out a question that caught Kazuya off guard
"Why? Of course it's because, Kirino wants to do this, right? Kazuya subconsciously gave such an answer, from his point of view, helping Kirino's novel be published, is an opportunity to make up for himself, and it is also an opportunity to reconcile himself with Ying Riri, so, he naturally did it, but when Kirino really asked him' When it came to the question of whether Kirino himself wanted the novel to be published, he was a little surprised to find that from the beginning to the end, when doing this, he had not asked Kirino what she thought about this, but was taking care of himself to solve the problem for the other party.
"Of course,It's a lie to say that you don't want my novel to be published.,Aragaki seniors said that my recent mobile phone novel update time has become less and it does have something to do with it.,But,This doesn't mean.,I like it.,At this time, people decide their own future.,I don't like to bear this kind of help that seems to be a charity!" Kirino's face turned red, and he said to Kazuya with some excitement.
And looking at Kirino in this appearance, a nameless fire suddenly appeared in Kazuya's heart, the efforts he has been working on, the sacrifices he has been making, in the end, will fail because of a little girl's stupid self-esteem, which he can't accept anyway.
"What kind of charity-like help, what kind of 'arbitrarily decide your own future', Takasaka Kirino, I tell you not to go too far," Kazuya's voice became cold, and he also looked at Kirino with some dissatisfaction, and said word by word, "You know, I'm helping you, don't you know?" How much Black Cat wants her novel to be published, I have this opportunity to recommend your novel instead of Black Cat's novel, do you think Black Cat would be so sad if she learned about it? And you tell me you're going to give up this opportunity? Who do you think you are, please don't be too self-centered! β
"Isn't that you, someone who is too self-centered?" Ying Lili's cold voice came.
"Pear pear?" Kazuya threw a surprised and puzzled expression at Ying Lili, who had not said a word before, but looking at his girlfriend's appearance, his expression also softened a lot from the coldness just now, "What I just said may have gone a little too far, but you should understand, right?" For an author, the opportunity to publish a novel is so important, and Kirino just gave up this opportunity, I think it's too much-"
"So, Kazuya, did you really not hear what I said clearly?" Ying Lili showed a sad expression, "This problem of yours has not changed since before, why do you always like to think about some problems for us without authorization, and try to solve some problems that have never existed without authorization, and then, after the other party refused, why should you blame them without authorization!" From beginning to end, Kirino never offered to blame you, did he? From beginning to end, Kirino didn't want you to solve this problem, did he? So, are you blaming her in front of Kirino for her sake, or is it for your own self-righteous self-esteem and self-satisfaction? β
"I admit that there are some subjective reasons of my own in this, but doing this is for the good things of Kirino, right? Wouldn't it be funny if Kirino rejected me just for the sake of her stubbornness and face? Yingli pear, you should also understand this, right? β
"Kirino is going to the United States in a week." Ying Li Li calmly spat out a fact that shocked Kazuya, but in fact it shouldn't have shocked him.
"To the United States?"
"Yes, I was favored by the coach over there, and I want to further improve my ability, there is no problem, right?" Kirino squeezed out a somewhat reluctant smile and said.
"So, if you don't know about this matter, what reason do you have to decide the fate of Kirino without authorization, or rather, even if the current Kirino agrees to you to publish the novel, after the author goes to the United States, which is inconvenient to contact, do you still have the patience to negotiate with such an unknown author?" Ying Lili's helplessness came with a hint of sarcasm.
And Kazuya can only face this fact dumbly.
"So, you still don't understand, and yes, you're still, you don't understand anything!" Eiri shook her head, revealing a bitter smile that made Kazuya's entire heart turn cold.
