Early morning.

Compared to the first time she saw Mukai Kano, she had long hair and a commuting style in a suit. Today, when she puts down her long red hair, she looks more like a sister next door. Walking to the car with Shinobu Shinobi who was about to go to school training, Maki looked in from the car window, and could see that she was wearing a blue sleeveless top and a high-waisted printed over-the-knee skirt, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said in a soft voice: "Let's come up together, I'll send Yu Shijun and Yueren to the Ice Emperor first, and then go with Zhenji to pick up the teacher." ”

Xiang Higaku quickly skimmed out from the passenger seat, "Good morning!" Surprise！ ”

Xiang Hi Lu Nai's appearance is very similar to that of Xiang Riyue, but her facial features look softer, although she is about the same height, but because of her gentle big sister temperament, it is difficult to confuse her with her delicate younger brother. She always speaks softly, in a gentle tone, and she can't see the upright and irritable character that Xiang Higaku and Shishido Ryo usually describe.

Of course, the "pit sister crazy demon" Xiang Riyue was still yelling at her as a "blind date big demon king", and she probably didn't know much about it.

But Maki doesn't think that Hinata is just a weak girl because of her appearance.

After all, she is only a few years older than Eri-sama, and there are countless editors who are older than her in her publishing house, but it is she who took over from Miss Narita, a senior in the industry, and has become the editor of Kazumi Umegaki on behalf of today's female writers in the literary world.

Maki is very familiar with the former editor Miss Narita, who is a junior of her aunt's school, and she has come and gone with her aunt all the way, but in recent years, her health has deteriorated, and she fell ill after returning from a business trip to Nagoya last time. Fortunately, I miraculously met my first love in Nagoya, who was also on a business trip, and after several visits and cares, the two middle-aged people got married quickly. In addition to the chores of the new book release, Shinobu Kazumi came back this time mainly to attend the wedding of the editor and friend.

Before leaving for recuperation, it was Miss Narita who personally recommended Hinata Kano as a successor to Shinobu Kazumi.

Drove the ninja foot and Xiang Riyue to the door of the Ice Emperor Academy,After the two people got out of the car door,Xiang Ri Lu Nai lowered the car window,As a big sister to the two teenagers encouragement:" Will you race the day after tomorrow? Come on, I'll go to the final. ”

The national competition will open the day after tomorrow, and now is the adjustment period for the main selection of players, so the ninja foot yoshi and Xiang Riyue people, who usually get up early to go to the morning exercise, didn't go out until half past eight today, and the real season was also able to steal the time to go to see a lively scene with Aunt Ninja and Beauty.

Because it was only a short-term return to China, and the family had been vacant for a long time, Renzu and Mei chose to live alone in the hotel. As for the fact that her son's apartment was still vacant, she hadn't considered moving in at all. On the day that Zhenji picked up and went home, the ninja was still half bright and sad and sighed: He has long been forced to get used to being treated as a third party between his parents when he grows up.

When they arrived at the hotel, Shinobu and Mei were already standing at the door of the hotel waiting, and the angle from which they drove over could just see the silhouette of Shinobu and Mei.

She had a tall figure inherited from her children, her hair was loosely braided, and she wore a bat-sleeved silk dress with a navy blue background.

Hearing the voice, Shinobu and Miri turned around, and when she saw Maki lowering the window and waving her paws at her, she was also in a good mood and smiled.

As a niece, even if she is familiar with her aunt's small movements that will subconsciously tilt to the right when she smiles, she still can't ignore the elegant arc drawn by her slender and smooth neck. And it is obviously not a special color cloud pattern, but because of the rendering of the wearer's own unique temperament, it seems to be able to touch the psychedelic ukiyo-e style.

"Good morning, teacher."

After greeting his new editor, Hika Nobi, Shinobu Kazumi opened the back door and prepared to sit next to Maki. When she came in, a lock of fine hair slipped out of the braid, and Shinobu Kazumi casually stroked it, but her fingers were accidentally hooked, and the braid, which was not very tight, was almost torn apart.

Maki volunteered to raise her hand: "I'll come!" ”

"Well, okay." It seems that my aunt doesn't have much hope for her braiding level, and when she heard her niece say this, she immediately turned sideways, and Ren Zhenji pulled the rubber band off her tail. Zhenji, who was excited just now, was embarrassed to remember that he with short hair would not carry a comb with him at all, stared deeply at his paws, and was thinking about the possibility of breaking the jar and going straight to the hand, when a black lacquered wooden comb with a rather quaint shape was suddenly handed in front of him.

Mukai Kano also realized Maki's stupid attempt, and funnily shoved the comb directly into her curled palm.

As a distant relative by blood, Shinobu Kazumi and her sister Uragaki Kiyowa are most similar in appearance, but this long hair as thick as a black waterfall.

Although Zhenji's athletic ability can be called a fighter among the five scum of war, his fingers are very dexterous. After combing his hair, he walked lightly through the black waterfall, and he had already made a prototype in three strokes. After all, she felt that Barbie didn't seem to be as good-looking as her mother since she was a child, and she directly started using her mother's long hair as a toy.

Umegaki Kiyokazu, who has always been accustomed to light and simple life, has never expressed it clearly, but has been silently wearing waist-length hair that is actually quite troublesome.

While Maki was busy with enthusiasm, Mukai Kano also began to confirm today's itinerary while driving, "Just now, President Baotian's secretary called, saying that the crew was almost ready today, and he also arranged someone to pick it up. Wait a minute, you will need your cooperation, and after Mr. Tsuruga's audition, I will ask you to show up and judge. In addition, he also made a point of saying that President Takada did not tell Director Sù Ogata about your coming. ”

Shinobu Kazumi was not surprised by this, and she smiled softly, "It's indeed President Takada's style." ”

At this time, Zhenji probe probed his head and interjected a sentence: "If you are not qualified, will you really replace Tsuruga Lian?" ”

The reason why "DarkMoon" became a hot topic before filming began, on the one hand, is inseparable from the lasting influence of the previous work. But on the other hand, more than 20 years have passed, and the fans of the previous work are not young after all, and as the main audience of current film and television works, there are a lot of young people who are here for the starring role, and the most popular male artist Tsuruga Ren is currently recognized.

Maki was also surprised to learn that the president of the LME insisted on replacing his company's popular artist. I heard that this audition was won by director Keifumi Ogata, and if Tsuruga Ren's performance still does not satisfy President Raleigh Takada, he will lose the opportunity to appear in "DarkMoon" without any negotiation.

And Kazumi Umegaki, the original author who happened to return to China, was also invited to participate in the judgment of this audition.

Although it is still under wraps.

"Of course." Patience and beauty are categorical. Because she had to braid her hair, Maki could only see the tip of her aunt's nose on the side of her face. But when she said this, Shinobu Kazumi suddenly turned to the side, so that Maki could clearly see her long eyelashes fanning up and down, as well as the vague smile that flashed away.

"Zhenji, the opportunity will not look back."

Shortly before arriving, Mukai Kano contacted the LME president's secretary. So as soon as they parked their car, someone came to lead the way. However, if it weren't for Hiki Kano repeatedly confirming that this was someone from the LME company, Maki would definitely decide that it would be impossible for him to go with this suspicious person in his next life!!

…… Who will tell her why the president's secretary is dressed as the ancient minister in the movie? And also Chinese!

Could it be that the LME has fallen into some terrible financial crisis, so that the secretary of the boss has to take the opportunity to go to the historical drama crew next door to perform part-time in order not to starve to death?

Zhenji had a real expression of "hell in the", and suspiciously swept this guy with a paralyzed face up and down.

Not to mention the clothes, just the hat like a hat covered with red tassels was already very conspicuous, and seeing the black tail hanging behind the hat and the suspicious peacock bird feathers and the big black braid, she could really confirm that this was the hat of the Chinese official, which should be called "Hua Ling".

Following this minister, they came to a darkly lit photography area. I heard Chancellor-kun explain that for this morning's audition, the rest of the crew's filming was suspended, and only a small part was used to perform the part of "Mitsuki and Katsuki's first solitude at Hongo's house". Because it's not an official performance, the photographers have taken a half-day holiday, and this place has become more hidden.

And because it's a photography area, the view here is very good, and it's perfect for dark observation.

When I looked at the real season, the lights of the overpass and the ceiling had been basically debugged, and the brightness of the indoor lights at night was played, and the scenery had been set up. There were already quite a few people standing in front of the stage, discussing noisily. Director Keifumi Ogata stood in the center, next to a chair with an exaggerated shape, because the back of the chair was so high that Maki couldn't tell who was sitting on it, but she still caught a glimpse of the yellow cuffs propped up on the side of the chair with her good eyesight.

After standing still, the minister-kun rolled a carp and went away - scaring the ignorant girl Maji Chenggong.

"It's 'unloading the arrow sleeves.'" Shinobu and Mei Wensheng explained for Zhenji his series of unknown movements of clapping his sleeves and bowing on one knee, "This is Qing etiquette. ”

…… Oh.

…… Ah no, auntie, it doesn't matter what it's called, the important thing is this person, did he take medicine today?!

Seeing that her niece was successfully stunned by the wild style of Raleigh Baotian's wild horse, Shinobu Kazumi did not continue to explain intimately, but asked towards Hikanoi, "Lunai-kun, have you read "Moon Dawn"? ”

Social person Xiang Hikano showed her composure, and quickly reacted from the terrifying state of "Lie Groove Groove Groove", and when she heard the question of Patience and Beauty, she immediately replied with a smile: "Yes, the first work of the teacher I read was "Moon Obscurity". ”

"Huh?" Shinobu Kazumi was surprised, "For your age, it's unusual. ”

She has been famous for a long time, and Mukai Kano is about the same age as her eldest daughter Shinobu Erina, and it stands to reason that when Hinatal Kano was able to read, she already had a lot of well-received masterpieces, and "Moon Obscurity" was obviously not among them.

After all, this is only her debut film when she was seventeen years old, and despite the great influence of the TV series, the work itself is not valued by critics from a literary point of view.

Seeing that there was an extra girl with short black hair next to Keifumi Ogata, Shinobu Kazumi was curious: "Is that the actress who played the unfinished scene?" I remember her name was ......."

Maki picked up crisply: "Kyoko." ”

Seeing the corners of Maji's eyebrows raised obviously, Shinobu and Mei also asked with interest: "Maji, do you know her?" ”

"It's my friend, she used to live next door to me and Yushi." Maki said with a smile, thinking that the opportunity was precious, so he simply took advantage of the situation to ask his aunt about his impression of Kyoko Mogami, "Auntie! Did Director Ogata send you the video of the actors? What do you think? Did Kyoko play well? ”

To be honest, because I didn't have time to be a group performer before, I really haven't seen Kyoko Mogami play Hongo Mitsuki.

Since Aunt Shinobu and Mei specifically mentioned Kyoko Girl, Maki guessed that it would not be a negative impression at least. But she didn't hear the comment she expected, Shinobu and Mei just reached out and touched the top of her head, but they didn't look directly at Maji.

Her gaze seemed to be fixed on the lustrous green-glazed cherry blossom vase on the coffee table in the interior.

But it was as if he hadn't seen anything.

She said something unrelated: "Remember? True season. When you were a child, you asked me if Mitsuki was me. ”

……？

To be honest, Zhenji didn't react for a moment, because the impression left on her by this question was really not deep. But after thinking about it carefully, she could still remember her aunt's answer back then. It was really very young, and she was only a child who could divide people into two camps: "bad" and "good".

At that time, she didn't even know how to study, and went to Yushi's house for the summer vacation, because she quarreled with Shinobu Yushi, and was ignoring him (unilaterally), so she found a box of videotapes from the cabinet alone.

It is the TV series recording of "Moon Dawn".

Of course, it's natural to watch TV series and stand in the protagonist's camp, especially when she is still a child who doesn't have many judgment standards, and Mitsuki is indeed a gentle and sensible girl, of course, she will hate those who bully Mitsuki. Later, she learned that this was a book written by her aunt Shinobu and Mei, and she couldn't tell the difference between fiction and reality, so she pestered her aunt to ask this question, and wanted to ask if those bad guys had been defeated.

She tugged at the corners of her beautiful skirt, and her aunt squatted down gently, caressing the top of her head gently.

- "She's not me, my little girl. ”

Maki grew up and read some critical works, although there is not much research, but there are quite a few people who agree that this work is at least half of the autobiography of Kazumi Umegaki, she read a book review and said:

After this debut novel, due to her experience as a journalist, Kazumi Uragaki's work turned to social criticism. She is a writer who is good at finding a balance between reality and literature, but there is no doubt that her work is very dependent on the cornerstones of reality. It can be inferred from this that before she entered the society, it is very likely that she will use her own growth experience in her works, and "Moon Obscurity" is her only creation during this period, because of the popularity of the film and television work of the same name, which makes people ignore the in-depth interpretation of this special work. ”

This is a logical and literary corollary, and some good deeds have even dug into the fact that my aunt was fostered at my maternal grandfather's house when she was a child. In other words, the real and heavy atmosphere of the wealthy family in the book, as well as the detailed and elegant description of life although not cumbersome, all hide the fact that she is better than a famous family.

I remembered it, but what does this have to do with her asking about her impression of Kyoko?

Maki didn't understand the relationship between Kyoko and her aunt, she subconsciously stared at Kyoko Mogami who was watching in the stage area, and saw Kyoko's short black hair, which was completely different from the previous work, and suddenly thought that it was not only the appearance, but Kyoko said that she made a bold attempt to interpret the character of Mixu, but fortunately it was affirmed by the director.

- Change.

This change and the aunt ......

Ay? Since "I'm not Mitsuki", does my aunt mean "I'm Mitsuki"?!

No, Mixu is a "bad guy" who bullies Mitsuki!

didn't wait for the real season to change his thinking when he was a child, and the whole studio suddenly fell silent. Then I heard the sound of the doorknob unscrewing, and the young actress Momose Yoshimi Momose, who played Mizuki Hongo, poked her head out of the door, holding a tray of refreshments in her hand.

- The audition began.
