As April approaches, the short cherry blossom season comes to an end.

Small grey fluttering and brownish and yellow birds rise and fall between the branches and the wires, and make a graceful arc under the blue sky, making a crisp and gentle cry.

For ordinary people, this is just another ordinary and unremarkable spring; For some, it's a spring full of unusual significance.

Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan.

Xiao Bury hummed a familiar tune while skillfully installing a series of live broadcast equipment in his room.

In the process of debugging the equipment, she logged in to the mobile terminal of the live broadcast website she signed up for, and changed the title of her live broadcast room to "Assault! Resurrected. R！」。

After confirming that the equipment is correct, Xiao Bury officially began, this time without any notice of the surprise live broadcast. Of course, there are also some early fans who immediately entered the live broadcast room when they got the news pushed by the background.

"It's coming!"

"Ye Qing Hui!"

"Congratulations! By the way, please urge someone to write a book!"

Compared with the past, the relatively rare barrage did not dampen Xiao Bury's enthusiasm for live broadcasting, but it is better to say that her eyebrows are now filled with a sense of excitement that she is eager to try.

She greeted with a smile on her face: "Good morning, everyone! Ah~ I really haven't seen you in a long time~! I just got the live streaming equipment back up, so I'll broadcast it for a while. ”

"However, saying that, I haven't really figured out what I'm going to broadcast~ Why don't we have a chat?"

Will anyone be able to refuse a virtual Bishoujo's offer?

Not! Yes!

"You can hear it. R-chan is excited now wwww"

"I'll come first, I'll come first! Question: Which university did U-chan get into? Maybe we'll be alumni too!"

"Is it really JK from the grassland? I thought it was a joke before! It's like the eternally seventeen-year-old purple sawdfadsgw."

"Is that brother in front alive?"

When Xiao Bury saw the barrage, he thought about it and felt that there was nothing to hide, so he replied, "It's the University of Tokyo!" With Nissan in a university! ”

The next moment, a large continuous question mark suddenly floated on the screen. Most of these question marks are grouped in groups of three, vividly and profoundly expressing their inner surprise and dismay.

「？？？」

"I used to think that high school students who were able to balance their studies and work were deceitful......

"A school with Nissan...... In other words, the old thief of Baili is actually a student of Dongda?!"

"Brother! Younger sister! Halter! Stumble!"

Xiao Bury looked at the barrage and continued to smile and replied, "Yes! In the past year, my brother has really helped me a lot in my studies, and I am very grateful to him! ”

Naturally, the barrage is another burst of chickens and dogs.

"My sister can't be so blunt!"

"Is this someone else's sister and someone else's brother?"

"An only child is walking on thin ice and is afraid to speak......

After this topic ended, Xiao Bury casually chatted with the fans in the live broadcast room about some topics such as the games that are expected to be released, where to play in the recent weather, and what his brother has been doing in the past year...... No, I mean, the last topic isn't quite right, is it?!

About half an hour after the start of the broadcast, Xiao Bury used the stunt that he had finally practiced for the year of suspending the live broadcast, which was in the same vein as Jiang Yu - the speed of light.

Well, it's actually quite easy to learn.

took off the headphones, Xiao Bury stretched his waist, and his beautiful figure hidden under loose clothes was unobstructed.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and a plain and soft female voice came: "Xiao Buried, breakfast is ready." ”

"Got it~ Sister Megumi!"

Xiao Bury replied in a loud voice, then rolled around on the bed, took the shortest path to the door not far away, and hopped towards the door.

At the moment when he was about to open the door, Xiao Bury seemed to sense that something was wrong, thought hard for a moment, and suddenly widened his eyes: Hui ...... When did Sister Megumi come?!

As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Bury hurriedly pushed open the door and walked to the living room. What catches my eye is Hui who is naturally busy in the open kitchen, and Jiang Yu who is staring at the laptop screen with a sleepy face on the dining table.

Xiao Bury leaned on his slippers and walked over quickly: "I'll help!" ”

Megumi chuckled and handed over the plate in his hand and instructed, "Be careful of scalding." ”

Xiao Bury put the dinner plate on the table, glanced at the indifferent Jiang Yu, pouted and kicked the other party across the table, and said angrily: "Brother, what are you looking at?" Come and help! ”

"Yes~Yes~" Jiang Yu closed the screen and got up while stretching, "Speaking of which, do you plan to stay in a dormitory next month or continue to live here?" ”

Xiao Bury was stunned when he heard this, his cunning eyes rolled, and he asked with a smile: "What's wrong?" Did I disturb you? ”

Jiang Yu stretched out his right hand and gently flicked his sister's forehead, and scolded with a smile: "What is the little girl in her head all day!" ”

Xiao Bury covered his forehead and smiled, and he didn't argue.

Jiang Yu understood what she meant, spread his hands and said, "Whatever you want." I was just thinking about whether you need to broaden your social circle and try a different way of life. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Bury showed a rather exaggerated expression of surprise, leaned back slightly, covered his mouth with his right hand, tears instantly appeared in his beautiful big brown eyes, and his voice choked up and said, "I, I didn't expect it, it actually ...... You would say such a thing to your brother. Actually、It will be my brother who is so narrow that his social circle is too narrow to be ......"

Looking at his sister's deliberately exaggerated acting skills, Jiang Yu only felt a throbbing pain in his forehead. He stretched out his right hand again and was about to play, Xiao Bury hurriedly restrained his expression and tears just now, returned to normal, and said in a cheerful voice: "I'm hungry, come and have breakfast!" ”

By the way, Megumi had been watching this scene with an unusually soft watchful gaze.

After breakfast, Jiang Yu and Xiao Bury consciously took over the cleaning of the dishes, while Hui sat on the sofa, holding the laptop, not knowing what they were reading.

Xiao Bury glanced over there, wiped the cleaned tableware in his hand and put it back on the shelf, and asked in a low voice, "Speaking of which, brother, what were you looking at just now?" ”

Jiang Yu replied casually: "The final draft of Lunye's plan." ”

Xiao Bury blinked, and asked with some hindsight: "Is it the game that the club is going to do this year?" ”

Jiang Yu turned off the faucet, wiped the water stains on his hands on a rag, and said, "If nothing else, it will be launched on COMI this winter, right?" ”

Xiao Bury asked curiously, "Is this time also Galgame?" What about the type? Is it a new work or a sequel? ”

Jiang Yu reached out and stroked his sister's hair scattered on his forehead behind her ear, and motioned with her eyes to quickly dry her hands before replying: "Of course it's a new work of Galgame, if it's a type...... Should it be considered daily, life and pure love? Oh, and the most important 'convention'. ”

Xiao Bury nodded as if he didn't understand, and immediately asked with an interested expression, "Then what do you need me to do this time?" Has the name of the game been decided? ”

"You just ......" Jiang Yu looked at Xiao Burying, who was very close, and stopped talking, and after satisfying the other party's appetite, he smiled, "You girl, study hard first!" I'll call you to help when I need someone later. ”

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yu patted his sister's head and turned around to leave.

Xiao Bury quickly grabbed the hem of his clothes, pouted, and had an expression that was useless even if I was unhappy, even if I coaxed me: "I knew it was like this!" And what about the name? If the name of the game is decided, it doesn't matter if you tell me now, right? ”

Jiang Yu got rid of his sister's hand, and replied while arranging the hem of his clothes: "It's nothing to hide, the game is called "The Promise under the Blue Sky". However, this time, I'm afraid that there is no way to get Senior Sister Shiyu and Sawamura to join in for the time being. ”

"Huh?" Xiao Bury, who also has some understanding of the complex relationship between everyone, couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, "Brother this time, don't you plan to invite Shiyu seniors and Ying Lili seniors to create together?" It's not easy to reconcile. ”

"It's not that I don't want to, but I can't." Jiang Yu shook his head categorically and corrected, "This project is not so good that it can make those two people want to participate even if they leave everything behind." ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Yu suddenly laughed, and said: "However, whether it is the current Lun Ye or the current me, I am not qualified to be comparable to Hongsaka Zhuyin." ”

Xiao Bury opened his mouth, but in the end, he wanted to speak and stopped, with a complicated face.

If the "Universal Chronicle" at the end of the previous year was the standard for projects that creators wanted to participate in at the expense of everything, then I am afraid that only by looking at the entire history of video games can we find more than one pair. Of course, this is to put aside works that are more meaningful than the game itself, and are more like milestones than gods.

Even for Akasaka Zhuyin, the "Chronicle of the Universe" the year before last is worthy of her highest masterpiece so far.

This conclusion is based on the fact that it covers all types of works that the other party has participated in and led in the past.

Going back decades from now, in terms of the overall quality of the game, "Chronicles Worldwide" is well-deserved first.

In the short time when the brother and sister were talking, Megumi on the side had already seen the character design part of the project. Since Lun is not good at painting, and he has not shown this project to anyone other than Jiang Yu before, this part is still only a text description.

But when Megumi saw some of the descriptions of her appearance, especially her hairstyle, she couldn't help but sigh a little in surprise.

Jiang Yu and Xiao Bury heard the prestige, and couldn't help but ask at the same time, "What's wrong?" Megumi (older sister). ”

"Ahh Megumi turned her head, the expression on her face was a little subtle, "It's nothing, it's just...... I'm just thinking about how much An Yijun likes Ying Li. ”

"Huh?" After Xiao Bury was surprised, he instantly showed a strong interest, "Let me see!" Let me see! ”

Jiang Yu had an expression of "sure enough".

There's no way.,Who made the first heroine in this project case a blonde double-ponytail girl with a weak personality.,And the hidden heroine who has the same agreed token as the male owner.,It's a straight-hearted girl with a short double ponytail.。

It's like the past and present, the two sides of the weak and the strong.

Of course, he would feel this way, perhaps because he knew that there were some preconceived factors in the ten-year-long entanglement between the two.

However, it is understandable that a person who is a creator for the first time will look for materials from his side.

Looking at Hui and Xiao Burying, who were huddled together on the sofa to watch the screen, Jiang Yu shook his head, walked reflexively to the study, and used the computer in the study to download another copy of the plan from the mailbox, and read it carefully.

He'd read this project many times, so the previous content was skipped at a glance, and soon came to the most important part of the plot as a Galgame.

The plot of the whole game can be roughly divided into three parts: spring, summer, and character line. Among them, the plot of spring is a common line, which tells the story of the arrival of Rina Sawaki, a transfer student who is one of the heroines, and the only dormitory of the only school on the island. The story begins with the joyful,Early in the morning,The almost naked hero and heroine wake up in the same room in the dormitory after a hangover.,It ends with the lonely Rina who didn't want to have a good relationship with everyone.,Rona who is alone integrates into the dormitory.。

And the events experienced in the process of improving the relationship between everyone, such as the round-the-island marathon, make-up exams, etc., as well as hidden under this glorious and youthful page, the open and secret struggle between the school and the dormitory on the demolition of the dormitory has laid the groundwork for the plot behind.

The summer plot is the main character strategy plot and the largest part of the text. If the spring plot is Rinna's home field, then the summer plot is Mei Lan Zhuju, each with its own expertise.

The events of the different heroines experienced by the protagonist Hoshino in each scene will deepen the relationship between the two while going deep into each other's past to varying degrees. Among them, the childhood sweetheart Yu Yamakai Ji line and the senior sister Nao Asakura line, respectively through the description of Hang's childhood and adolescence and the period from the time when he just entered high school last year to the time of the beginning of the plot, jointly portrayed a character who is affectionate and righteous, straightforward and not lacking in cleverness, and occasionally shows weakness and is still on the way to growth.

This seems to be the tradition of "SimplePlanSoftware". The biggest difference between the work under the name of this small community that has only been established for three years and other similar works is that it is good at and willing to create a full-fledged protagonist, rather than treating it as a tool that acts as a player's camera.

Whether it is the fierce truth at the beginning, Shirou later, or even today's hang. Rather than letting them substitute from the perspective of a player, they are more like human beings with their own joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and they are really trying to live in this world or even somewhere in the parallel universe.

However, unlike the single and certain relationship line of "FSN", which has a plot lock, no matter which line "The Promise Under the Blue Sky" is, it can be clearly seen that except for the heroine of this line, the rest of the heroines have a good impression of Hang. Among them, the most obvious, or the most interesting, is probably the route of Kaiji, in order to give courage to Kaiji, who is afraid to go further because of the past, he chooses to have a very youthful momentum, announcing in front of the rest of the dormitory that Hoshino Airlines wants to have a relationship with Hayama Kaiji.

Then, the individual explanation work for each girl shows the demeanor and characteristics of each girl, and it is easy to see the special feelings that everyone else has for the air.

Another thing that Jiang Yu found very interesting, even ironic, was that in the route of the six Miyako with the attributes of the traditional eldest lady, when Hang and Miyako were following in the footsteps of the latter's grandfather and were stranded on a small island overseas, they saw on the wall of the cave, the matching umbrella engraved with the names of Hayama Kaiji and Hoshino Hang.

So, how much do you like Sawamura.jpg?

Looking at the lines involving all the playable characters, it is obvious that they are relatively more like the main line, and they are the three lines of childhood sweethearts, senior sisters and transfer students. And the one with the strongest ink is undoubtedly the sea line as the protagonist's childhood sweetheart.

Whether it is these three lines or the other four lines, they are full of a large number of fragments full of trivial life. These fragments that try to show a sense of reality and life, some plots can't help but make people smile, and at the same time, they also invisibly make many characters gradually take root in the hearts of the people.

When the player opens all the lines and deeply feels the bonds and feelings between everyone, the hidden ending "The Promised Day" ushered in will instantly detonate the feelings accumulated along the way, so that the whole work has the possibility of sublimating from an excellent work to a masterpiece at once.

It's a trick, but it's not annoying.

The world that Lun Ye writes about has such a charm. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a story that can only be written by people who have experienced the hardships of society, but have maintained sufficient motivation and fantasy for life.

Moreover, although there are templates and slightly old-fashioned problems in character design, the reason why classic characters are classic is precisely because most potential consumers will buy this set.

The old-fashioned character setting and the plot are good enough, so it won't be boring, but will unconsciously smile during the game.

It can be said that Lun didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and wrote a plan that would satisfy the creators, fans, and investors.

After a quick glance at the rest of the proposal, Jiang Yu sent Lun a message with the content "OK, you can also send a copy to Iori and ask him to draw up a development schedule." message.

There was an immediate response.

TAKI: "Really?! Great!"

Seeing this news, Jiang Yu couldn't help laughing.

Tu Su: "Now can you understand the author's mood when he finishes the manuscript?"

TAKI: "I deeply empathize! The people who urge and review are simply devils!"

Tu Su: "Hahaha! Anyway, congratulations, Lunya. It's just ......."

TAKI：「…… Next time, I'll definitely get them back."

The tone of this news did not seem intense, but Jiang Yu seemed to be able to see the strong will of the sender and the courage to not give up until the goal was achieved.

Thinking about the growth of his friends in the past three years, Jiang Yu leisurely thought that maybe the day in the other party's mouth is really not far away.

The next day, "SimplePlanSoftware", which was in a state of semi-closed business, was also summoned by the representative of the association, Lun, and held a remote video conference.

The theme of the meeting is, of course, the new work that the club is expected to launch at this year's winter COMI, "The Promise under the Blue Sky".

Because of the vaccination in advance, everyone knows that this work is expected to be directly commercialized. However, when I saw that the time limit was too strict compared to the last "FSN", I still couldn't help but take a gentle breath. Especially the two who are painters, Ikai and Kanna Shiraishi.

By the way, Kanna Shiraishi, who has successfully graduated from the private Feng Zhiqi in March this year, is about to attend the school in April, which is where Shiyu is located. As for the profession, it's animation design. It seems that when applying for the major at that time, this obedient and well-behaved girl can be said to have fought with her parents unusually, and finally won the reluctant consent of her family.

To be honest, Jiang Yu actually doesn't approve of his senior sister applying for this major. After all, in Japan, most people in the ACG industry generate electricity with love, and most of the time, hard work is completely disproportionate to income. But he quickly thought about it again - wouldn't it be nice to change the industry like this? - such an excessively frivolous and thoughtless thought.

Straight to the point. In the realm of creators, Iori has no idea of pity for his sister at all. This brother, who clearly knew the current strength of going to sea, and also knew that she was far from reaching her limit, smiled and put the excessively large workload and excessively harsh deadline on the shoulders of this girl who was about to enter the third grade.

In this regard, Jiang Yu and Hui naturally knew in advance. The former naturally would not object, and the slight reluctance in Hui's heart was also offset by Jiang Yu's persuasion and the outstanding performance of the two outstanding creators who once belonged to this society.

After seeing his work, although he was a little surprised, he quickly turned into an excited smile that was so bright that it was even terrifying.

Ah~ This is the creator's world.

Shiraishi Kanna once again recognized what kind of monsters the group of people around him were, and at the same time, he was even more determined in his thoughts.

Sure enough, I still wanted to get closer to them. Even if it's just a small distance.

This is probably the most determined obsession in the heart of the girl who chose her own path even if the spring breeze blows.

After the meeting, since Len was also in the early stage of preparation and had completed Hayama Haiji's personal plot line, everyone was asked to read this part today and tomorrow and start working as soon as possible.

As a commercial work, "The Promise Under the Blue Sky" is naturally unlikely to be delayed on the deadline like the previous two works. Fortunately, after the first two years of matchmaking and pondering, today's community members are familiar with this set of processes, so they don't have to worry too much.

In April, the pink and white cherry blossoms bloom for the last time of the year in the warm spring sunshine, and then fall into the dirt and fall into a deep sleep for the following year.

A group of acquaintances around Jiang Yu have either gone to college or are working hard as this year's fresh graduates. The four of them were successfully admitted to the same women's university, and Mahime was also successfully admitted to the medical school of the University of Tokyo, becoming Jiang Yu's true schoolgirl.

The communication between people becomes longer with the day, and the feelings of each other are brewed in time, becoming a mellow old wine, full of fragrance and heartbreaking.

Spring passed quietly, and the tender green of the branches was dyed dark green by the breeze, and soon, it was the summer vacation when the cicadas were singing.
