After thinking about it, Jiang Yu could only think of one possibility - a debt of affection.

And it's the kind that its own editor thinks that as an author, he has to pay it back.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu couldn't help but sigh, since it was a human debt, there was no way. But...... Who do you owe a favor?

That's when you need to use elimination! First of all, exclude Kasumigaoka Shiyu, if that senior sister needs him to write a waist seal recommendation for her new book, she will definitely come and tell him about it herself, and she will use a vague and extremely misleading statement!

And so—

Which light writer do I know?

As soon as he thought of this, a drop of cold sweat couldn't help but slip down Jiang Yu's forehead. He suddenly found that in the field of light, except for Senior Sister Kasumigaoka, who he had known in real life, he really didn't seem to have any other connections.

Fortunately, if you don't understand, you can ask.,And when debugging the program, if you don't encounter an error, it's Baidu's excellent quality.。

Tu Su: "That, which work of your peers?"

Black Cat: "The one you told me not to be stingy when the other party needs help—Mr. Izumi Seizong! and the other party's new work that is expected to be released at the end of this month - "The cutest sister in the world".

Jiang Yu nodded suddenly, because the author of "Spring Things" had helped him promote it during the newcomer award at the beginning, he had told his editor a long time ago that if he needed help, he would also lend a helping hand as much as possible.

After learning that it was Hequan Zhengzong, Jiang Yu's slight rejection of this kind of people dissipated without a trace. It's just that......

Tu Su: "This name...... Has the girl line been very popular lately?"

Black Cat: "It's always been popular, but recently it seems that due to the new works of your Bikiya Komachi and several other writers, there are likable sister characters, and the popularity has risen a lot."

Seeing this, Jiang Yu couldn't help but be stunned, whether it was in the last world or in this world, Komachi's popularity was so high? Could it be that in any world, there will always be people who are trying to buy Komachi stocks? So should I also learn to sail and change my Twitter profile picture to Komachi?

Oh~~ Silk Zhai steamed goose heart!

So immediately after, Jiang Yu began to launch his excellent qualities again.

Tu Su: "The popularity of Komachi...... Is it that high?"

Black Cat: "...... You pay a little bit of attention to your own business, right? During the summer vacation, on the 2ch, wasn't there a fan spontaneously held a popularity survey of "Spring Things"? In the end result, your sister is ranked fourth, behind the three main characters."

Tu Su: "That's ......."

Jiang Yu wisely chose to ignore the first half of the other party's cliché.

Black Cat: "Ugh...... But the popularity survey of your work is also quite wonderful. In other works, it has always been the most popular female character in the first place, but yours is the unexpected protagonist who reaches the top, followed by the two heroines, and then the sister who has a rather likable image, and people don't know what to say."

Seeing his editor's exclamation, Jiang Yu raised the corners of his mouth and said secretly: "You think this book is really light!" Is it a joke to be at the top of the list in the male character category for three years in a row? The kind of selection system based purely on readers' votes is in the top spot, but it can't be faked.

With a lonely and lofty state of mind of "everyone is drunk and I am sober", Jiang Yu pulled the topic back to the right path.

Tu Su: "I understand, then please send me the manuscript of Mr. Izumi Zhengzong's new work later, I will read it as soon as possible and write you the most authentic feelings." If nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Black Cat: "Wait! One more thing!"

Tu Su: "Listen up."

Black Cat: "The release date of the fourth volume of "Spring Things" has also been set, on the 7th of the next month, Saturday. In addition, because I know that you must not care much about these things, I will also tell you by the way - the release date of the second volume of "Strawberry 100%" by Hyacinth-sensei is set for the 1st of next month, and the side story of "Four Lies" by Kasumiko-sensei will be released on the same day as your work."

Tu Su: "I know, I will write the manuscript of the fifth volume and hand it over to you as soon as possible."

Black Cat: "No, you don't understand, do you?! Also, if you deliver the manuscript so quickly, our illustrators might just go crazy, right?"

Tu Su: "What's wrong with Teacher Eromanga?"

Black Cat: "...... You really don't know?"

Tu Su: "???"

Black Cat: "Lost to you...... In addition to being the illustrator of your "Spring Things", Mr. Eromana is also the illustrator of Mr. Izumi's new work "The Cutest Sister in the World". Similarly, the illustration work for the other party's previous work, "The Silver Wolf of Reincarnation", was also handled by this person."

Tu Su: "Original...... That's it."

Once again, Jiang Yu felt the narrowness of this world and the wonder of the word "fate".

Black Cat: "Anyway, I'll send them their new work later, and the deadline for your slogan is next Friday." Since it has just finished a new work selection event, I plan to publish it as soon as possible while the iron is hot. So we're given a lot of time."

Tu Su: "Roger!"

Black Cat: "...... You use such radio language, I really doubt your age, Jiang Jun."

Tu Su: "Doesn't the black cat understand it too? (laughs)"

Black Cat: "What are you talking about, why can't I understand?"

Tu Su: "Even if you say this typical tsundere language now, you can't help it, right?"

Black Cat: "Huh?"

Tu Su: "Eh~ Wrong, wrong! I beg you to discourage, Mr. Editor, and I'll get off to work."

After ending the conversation with his editor, Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, supported his head with one hand, and began to be in a daze.

Speaking of which, is there really such a coincidence in this world?

- Then, recalling the facts I had just knew, I couldn't help but let out such an exclamation.

Who would have thought that two people who got together because of a work that the newcomer appreciated would end up with the same artist drawing illustrations for their own works?

Although Jiang Yu has never forgotten what happened at the beginning, and he has thought about when he will help Hequan Zhengzong again, he has never taken the initiative to contact the other party.

The so-called "gentleman's friendship is as light as water", probably this is the feeling, right?

Speaking of which...... Teacher Eromana's recent painting skills seem to have improved?

This feeling appeared when Jiang Yu was discussing the illustrations of the fourth volume of "Spring Things" with the other party before.

Thinking of this, he raised an eyebrow and decided to contact the illustrator who had been greeting him for a long time. I want to talk about "Programmer in the Second Yuan" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
