If there is a book, it is long, and if there is no book, it is short.

Three weeks passed unhurriedly, and soon it was late October.

To describe how fulfilling the lives of Jiang Yu, Shi Yu and Ying Lili were during this time, it can be summed up by a fairly clear "frequency of appearance" - of course, the location is limited to the school.

In the past three weeks, of course, Ying Lili did not casually use the three epidemics to get three weeks of vacation, she asked her family and is now in the setting of a one-month short-term study abroad in the UK. Inspired by this incident, Jiang Yu asked his father to explain at school, and on the grounds of "going back to his hometown to save his relatives", he was given a ten-day vacation, and the rest of the days were at least half a day to take classes at school.

As a college student, Shi Yu simply did not appear in any class in the university for three weeks, and slept all day except for work, and the three places he often lingered in were Jiang Yu's house, his own home, and the recording studio.

By the way, because a week after the work went unexpectedly smoothly, Jiang Yu suddenly received a new commission from Marz's side, specifically about the content of the event performance, including the actions and expressions of the characters, and said that all of them must be designated by this side. So after the relatively easy first week passed, the next two weeks of life - especially for Jiang Yu and Shiyu - really became a hell of a rush.

To briefly summarize the reason, this part of the content was originally handled by Hongsaka Zhuyin himself, and because that person would never back down in this regard even if he was hospitalized, this part of the work went around and finally found Jiang Yu and the three of them.

In other words, this part of the work was not a transaction to reduce the burden on Marz's side, but out of the will to "not be handed over to the other party" and "must be done by yourself", it was pushed to the "current Akasaka team" who knew the development of the plot of the work best.

Well...... After hearing the news at that time, the wonderful expressions and blurted out insults of Ying Lili and Shiyu will be ignored for the time being.

On the weekend night when the performance of the event and the work related to the supervision of the original art ended.

After nearly 50 hours of intense work, Jiang Yu put Shiyu and Ying Lili in a taxi and called their families. Then, in his own sister's worry, surprise, and respect—no...... Why do you respect it? ——With a vague step, he rinsed the mug that had been renewed for coffee many times and replaced it with hot water, then shut himself in the room, laid out the quilt, and planned to sleep like this.

But the wonderful thing is that after excessive fatigue, it seems that even the concept of fatigue itself, the brain and the body can no longer be understood. Therefore, I tossed and turned for a long time, and I couldn't sleep. The heart is heavy, as if something important has not been completed or resolved.

But in fact, it is clear that all the work has been done.

Jiang Yu, who was extremely irritated by that strange feeling of burning his heart, simply sat up from the quilt and looked at the street scene outside the window in the cold air of late autumn.

Tokyo still looks so bustling at night, and it seems that it is no different from when we first met a year ago. Whether it's the passers-by who are in a hurry and have a slightly tired face, or the neon flashes and colorful plaques on the shopping street, or the noise that faintly penetrates through the curtain of the izakaya, and the dry eyes of each pair of hands tapping on the keyboard from time to time, staring intently at the screen.

The city is as it always has been, following certain rules.

Whether it is the city in my memory or the city I am in now, it seems to be so beautiful, so ugly, so leisurely, so busy.

After looking at the night scene for a while, Jiang Yu blinked, as if he felt a little sleepy. Before getting into the bed, he took out his phone and habitually checked LINE and his mailbox for any new news. Then, he looked at the name of the one who hadn't spoken for more than three weeks, and the message he had sent three weeks ago still hadn't shown "read," and he was a little stunned.

By the way, I'll have to tell her.

Jiang Yu had this idea in his mind, which was not too bright at the moment, so he immediately dialed the other party's phone.

After a brief current tone, the phone is connected.

Jiang Yu frowned tightly, and asked in an excessively dry voice that he didn't notice at all, "Kato? ”

After a few seconds of silence, a soft answer came from the other end of the phone: "...... Well. ”

The next moment, Jiang Yu's frowning brows relaxed, and even a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and he still said in that slightly low and dry tone: "The work here is all over, and I should be able to return to the club tomorrow." ”

The girl on the other end of the phone couldn't help biting her lip with her teeth, her face was a little complicated, a little tangled, and a little subtle, and then she replied, "I know." ”

"Huh? Oh......" Although Jiang Yu was a little puzzled by the other party's tone that seemed to have been expected and not surprised, his state at the moment did not support him to think so much, "Listen to me, this game is really, really super amazing!" Shiyu Senpai and Sawamura too, have become excellent creators who can attract people's attention! By the time the game is released, they will quickly become the most popular artists and writers. But in this way, it seems that they can't entrust them with galgame's project anymore? Well...... It seems a bit difficult to move directly to other types of games......"

"Ah, yes, yes! Kato: Did you know? Because I was in charge of the revision of the line book and the guidance of the live recording with Sister Shiyu before, I met a lot of famous voice actors at once! It's great, can we also add voice acting to our game? Be sure to find Saber a hard-working one! Overtime, overtime! Well, by the way, find a voice actor from Merlin? You have to be the kind of person who will say, 'Don't associate characters with voice actors!' 'Or something? Aha! ”

"Speaking of Sawamura, although I feel that she is still as unmellow as before in dealing with people, her skills in painting are really amazing! Even in the past three weeks, it has been improving! I heard that the art team on Marz's side often made her pick on the finished products she handed in before, and she was so anxious that she cried several times because of the construction period! ”

The tone of his voice was more excited than ever, and the logic of his expression was not clear.

The perceptive and intelligent girl was naturally aware of this, but she did not stop him from continuing. Instead, as always, he listened quietly.

“…… Akasaka Zhuyin is really a great person. It feels like she's living in two worlds with the average creator, and if she is surrounded by her, she'll either progress to the point where she assimilates into the inhabitants of one world, or she'll collapse and lose everything she has. ”

"Speaking of which, how can there be such a chaotic company in this world that revolves around one person! Especially if it can be so big! In other words, those people haven't thought about what will happen to the company after the backbone falls like now? Give me a little responsibility for myself and the industry! ”

"I think my father is much wiser in this regard! After becoming a manager, he basically did not take the initiative to take charge of any project, and most of the time only carried out macro control. But I can't stand that kind of life, right? It's fun to make a game that makes people praise it by yourself! ”

Jiang Yu's head was extremely excited, and at the same time, his body became more and more tired. Then, as if feeling a little cold and tired, he sat down against the corner of the wall, wrapped himself in a quilt, and then continued.

The topics he babbled on and on would occasionally become inverted, occasionally repeated, occasionally referring to family situations that had not been mentioned in the past, occasionally being incomprehensible, and then laughing to himself.

The girl on the other end of the phone didn't stop or warn, but occasionally responded with some tone words such as "um", "ah", and "oh".

She wasn't perfunctory, she was really listening to Jiang Yu very seriously.

It's just that, probably, it will take a little time to sort out the inner emotions and be able to speak them fluently.

Then, she suddenly noticed that the voice on the other end of the phone stopped.

Just as she was considering whether it was time to speak herself, the man suddenly said in a very soft, whispering voice, "I'm sorry, Kato. I'm really sorry...... Then, I came back. ”

After the voice fell, there was no sound on the other end of the phone, only the sound of subtle breathing could be heard, as if I was asleep.

Megumi Kato didn't hang up the phone, he held the phone quietly for a while, and after a brief change in expression, his lips suddenly opened a touch of arc, revealing a shallow smile, and said softly: "...... Welcome back. ”

……

Time goes back to the time when Shiyu and Yingli Ri were yawning and boarding the taxi with tired faces.

Just as the taxi drove away from Jiang Yu's house, the two suddenly took out their mobile phones and began to edit text messages to the same recipient. The difference is that one of them doesn't care whether the message is seen by the other party or not, so they use LINE; The other person is quite concerned about this, and is afraid that the messages he sent in the past will be ignored, so he uses the email.

Moreover, although the content of the newsletter is mostly the same, there are also inconsistencies - the message sent by Shi Yu is only a description of the current situation, and a sentence that seems to be a declaration of war and a provocation "temporarily returned to you", emphasizing the word "temporary", and even annotating it; In addition to the explanation of the current situation, the message sent by Ying Li Li also has a sincere apology and the kindness and thoughts that are released timidly and carefully, and longing for reconciliation.

And Megumi Kato, who was the target of the two of them, received a call from Jiang Yu shortly after reading these two messages.

Regardless of what Miss Kato, who finally answered the phone after some struggle, had her thoughts at first, she was probably relieved after the phone call ended.

This month of overly fulfilling and overly hard game production work made Megumi Kato understand a little bit about what Jiang Yu said at the beginning, and the reason why he had to go.

Pursuing the highest possible level of completion in a limited production cycle may be an idea that every game producer with ideals and aspirations, or even a game production participant, will have.

Thankfully, everyone in SimplePlanSoftware is probably a person with aspirations or ambitions. Even Michiru, who is not interested in game production itself, has a passion for music.

In the end, whether it is an excellent work or a masterpiece that can be called a masterpiece, the satisfaction fed back to the game producer is completely different.

Especially when there is the possibility of chasing a masterpiece, if you retreat to the second, I am afraid that for some strict producers, you will not be able to get the slightest sense of satisfaction. I am even afraid that it will be the opposite, making it painful, anxious, unwilling, and regretful.

To be honest, the production schedule of "FSN" is not optimistic enough to realize Megumi Kato's resentment a month ago - to complete a masterpiece without Jiang Yu, and after taking over all the work of Jiang Yu except for the script, Megumi Kato is trying to ensure the progress while inevitably being exhausted.

The simplest proof of this is that she dozed off at school much more often than in the past. If she hadn't always habitually activated her recent passive aura that was about to expire, she would have been interviewed by the head teacher.

Of course, this month's experience only gave Megumi Kato a basis for understanding the so-called "aspiring creator". What really made him change his mind, or rather, understood the thoughts of the group of people who left by themselves, was Jiang Yu's upside-down rhetoric.

Because, even when he was physically and mentally exhausted, his words were still full of enthusiasm, satisfaction and joy when he talked about his experience this month.

The enthusiasm of participating in the production of the game,After a lot of hard work, I was finally able to make the work come out in the original god form.,And,The long-awaited joy.,The joy of working hard with Shiyu and Yingli Pear.。

This made Megumi Kato feel a little empathy, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel envy and jealousy in his heart.

She's ...... too I'm looking forward to playing with those two again.

After recognizing his heart in a trance, Kato Megumi was a little unwilling and a little self-blaming, and at the same time, he naturally dissipated most of his resentment towards Jiang Yu at the beginning.

Of course, this only means that she understands Jiang Yu's choice at that time, and it does not mean that she forgives the other party.

Before the official completion of "FSN", it is still cold when it is time to throw a cold face, and it is still a cold face when it is time to ignore the other party.

After all, who made her a girl?

It's also a girl's prerogative to be a little arrogant and unreasonable once in a while, isn't it?
