Watching the three girls go back to the room to catch up on sleep, Murakami Yu hesitated and gave up his plan to hand over the first day of July to the bed.

Sitting cross-legged at the "desk", he took out the manuscript paper, revised it one last time, and set it aside.

Drew a new piece of manuscript paper.

"Ryoma-kun Sato:

Greetings omitted

The potatoes sent by Sato-kun last time have sprouted due to the training camp and the rainy season.

It's a shame to throw them away, so I plant them all in the yard.

However, I don't even know how to water it once a few days, so I'm writing to you for advice.

After listening to Sato-kun's advice, the radio recording has improved. In time, Sato-kun might be able to hear me talking and laughing... Right?

The rainy season in Tokyo is coming to an end, but the weather is getting hotter and hotter.

If it weren't for the developed economy, convenient transportation, and interesting characters, it would not be a place to live for a long time.

I heard that Hokkaido is an island country famous for its summer resort, and there is a sea of flowers that you can't see the edge, which is really enviable.

The manuscript paper is not long, and the writing is very large, so let's end here.

Hope to receive your potato planting tips soon.

I wish you good luck

Yubi Murakami"

I checked it and the handwriting was as neat as printing, and there were no typos.

OK.

There is no need to entangle the sorting, whether the preface and the afterword are collocated, and they are directly stuffed into the envelope.

After looking at the time, at 11:23, I got up and went downstairs.

"Knock knock!"

Yu Murakami stood in front of Higashiyama's door: "Higashiyama, get up." ”

After a while, the door opened.

Dongshan's hair finally spread out and hung directly down to the waist, with an amazing amount of hair.

She rubbed her eyes, sleepy-eyed: "It's time?" ”

Yu Murakami nodded: "It's half past eleven." ”

"Ahh ”

She asks Yu Murakami before going to bed and wakes her up at noon.

"I want to sleep~ I want to take a vacation~ I don't want to record songs~" muttered into the bathroom.

Yu Murakami goes to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Ramen, soft-boiled eggs, barbecued pork......

Due to material limitations, although he has tried his best to work on the seasoning, the overall rating is only around 4.1.

Carrying two bowls of ramen to the living room, Higashiyama had just washed and put on makeup, and was tying his hair.

The little hands flew, and the dense hair grew shorter and shorter, until finally it became a big ball on the head.

A few strands of Ying Ying's hand fell on both sides of her face, and she used a machine whose name Yu Murakami didn't know to pull the roll.

By the time she came out of the bathroom, she had become a sparkling entertainer.

The two swept away their respective ramen, wiped their mouths, and sighed, "Murakami-kun's cuisine really makes people feel happy." ”

The two went out together and parted at the mouth of the alley. She went to record a song, and Yu Murakami was going to the Den Library to find the editor Kagura Saka Iris to read the manuscript a second time.

After passing by a convenience store, I slipped the letter into the mailbox, stood in front of the vending machine, hesitated between green tea for 150 yen and orange cans for 120 yen, and chose a can.

Opened.

Take a sip.

"Tsk-"

Unpleasant.

I drank as I walked, and when I entered the subway station, I finally finished drinking.

Throw the trash in the trash can and get in the car.

Editorial Department of the Shock Library, Conversation Room.

Kagurazaka turned over the manuscript paper and read it very carefully.

"Mild gynophobia?" She raised her head and looked at Yu Murakami: "It's the first time I've seen the male protagonist set to be afraid of women." ”

"The male protagonist has been molested by other female voice actors because of his phobia. Over time, Matsuoka also began to get used to certain women. That's probably the setting. ”

Kagurazaka Iris flipped through the manuscript paper and pondered it for a moment: "But there are still no female characters in it, and the only ones that stand out are Nao Higashiyama and Ayane Sakura, who shot the magazine cover together." The problem is that there is no intersection other than {hello}{please advise}. These two took the initiative to chat with him, but Matsuoka refused? ”

"This is also one of the highlights, isn't Kagura Saka-san curious about the next development?"

Kagurazaka didn't speak, she was indeed a little curious.

He put down the manuscript paper, pondered for a moment, and said, "This edition is no problem if it is published." But I made it clear in advance that if the sales volume is not good, or if the second volume you wrote does not satisfy me, the book will be cut in half at any time. ”

Yu Murakami nodded: "Okay." ”

"What's the title of the book?"

"The title of the book?"

"You don't even think about the title of the book, do you?"

"Well~, this is indeed a problem."

"Ugh." Kagurazaka Iris sighed and rubbed her eyebrows a little painfully: "Think of one now." ”

"The Life of Matsuoka Zhencheng?"

"No, nothing new. And the name of the light novel must be long~! Kagurazaka immediately vetoed this casual name: "I see... It's called "Me! Gynophobia! But I was surrounded by beautiful women! Available? Can you come to the rescue? Thank you! 》。 ”

Yu Murakami: "... This..."

"Huh? No way? Kagurazaka Iris thought for a moment: "Otherwise, it's called "The Great Crisis!" I wanted to be a car mechanic, but I became a voice actor: a womanophobic daily life surrounded by female voice actors! How about this? ”

Yu Murakami frowned.

Kagurazaka knew at a glance that this was another rookie writer who was not deeply involved in the world and was a little ill.

She persuaded: "The title of the book is to indicate the selling point, like your book, the selling point is female phobia." Write it in the title of the book, which is a good title that meets the market! ”

Looking at Kagurazaka Aura's firm and confident expression, although I feel that she is quite right, but ......

"It's called "Unexpected Love", literature and art, and it also hints at women's phobia, how about it?"

Kagurazaka frowned, thought about it for a while, and finally gave up arguing with the original author about the title of the book. The main thing is that she savored it and felt that this was not bad.

Nodding: "Okay, it's not so straightforward, but it's not bad." ”

The two discussed a series of details.

"By the way, do you have any of your own people to recommend the illustration?"

Yu Murakami shook his head, where did he know any painters.

Wait a minute.

Sakura's villa has a studio, and although he doesn't know what Miss Sakura's level is, let's count it as one.

Let's take care of this matter first, if it doesn't work, isn't there still him.

He did some homework, and in the sales of light novels, illustrations also played a key role.

If he takes action on his own, he can maximize the advantage of this factor.

"I have a friend who is very good at drawing, and I would like to recommend her."

Kagurazaka didn't think much about it: "Show me the original painting before next Saturday." I'll also try to help you send out invitations to artists in the industry, and choose which one is better when the time comes. ”

"Okay, I'm sorry for you, Kagurasaka-san."

After everything was done, I went out of the power building, and it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.

Walking to the supermarket, I happened to come across a beef special, and I bought a beef for 790 yen.

I bought onions and umeboshi again, and I was going to make a beef rice bowl in the evening.

Walking to the fruit area, there are already watermelons on the market. Sold by the piece, one piece costs thousands of yen.

Yu Murakami was not very interested in watermelons, so he went straight home after buying vegetables.

Suzune Sakura and Ai Nakano had already gotten up, and the two of them were sitting in the living room, lying on the table weakly.

"What's wrong with you?"

Sakura-san: "Hungry—"

"Hungry?" Yu Murakami didn't understand what the situation was: "If you're hungry, you go to eat, there are noodles in the kitchen, and the convenience store is not far away." ”

Suzune Sakura shook her head: "No, I have to save my stomach for dinner." ”

After she said this, Ai Nakano changed her face and continued to lie on the table.

Yu Murakami looked at the back of her head and suddenly felt a little funny.

The temptation of food is really irresistible to anyone.

There is still some time before cooking, and Yu Murakami is not in a hurry to do it.

He sat down in his old seat and asked, "Sakura, how are your drawing skills?" ”

"Huh? What how? ”

"Draw. My novel is about to be published, and I need illustrations. ”

"Oh, you show me the novel, and I'll draw it for you." Suzune Sakura didn't say how his skills were, and agreed directly.

Yu Murakami handed her his original manuscript - Kagura Saka took the photocopy.

Suzune Sakura forced herself to sit up and began to flip through the pages one by one.

Half an hour later.

"It's okay to write, but why do you have so few scenes between Nao Higashiyama and Ayane Sakura?"

"At the beginning of the story, the three of them have just made their voice actors."

"Oh." Miss Sakura nodded, "Who to draw?" ”

"Hmm," Murakami thought for a moment, "Let's draw a picture of Matsuoka and the three of them." ”

“OK。”

Suzune Sakura took out a pencil first, conceived on a draft, and wasted three or four sheets of paper on the ground in a while.

Yu Murakami saw that the time was almost up, got up and went into the kitchen, and began to cook.

Finely chop the onion and plum, and cut the beef into cubes.

Fry the beef in a pan first, and then keep the gravy in the pan when it is done.

Pour in the red wine, continue to cook, wait until the aroma of the wine and meat are perfectly combined, then add the minced onion and stir-fry over high heat.

The pan was flipped in his hand, the onion was tossed into the air and fell, and in a simple operation, each onion was coated in juice.

Reduce the heat and continue frying.

Wait until the onion is golden brown and add the burnt soy sauce and other seasonings.

Yu Murakami has his left hand in his pocket, and his right hand tosses the pan from time to time, and he doesn't use a spoon at all.

Every time the pan is turned over, all the minced onions are turned over and the sauce is incorporated.

"Gollum~~"

Dongshan, who didn't know when he would come back, stood at the kitchen door, staring at the pan in his hand.

"Coming back so soon?"

In addition to recording songs in the afternoon, she also has to make up for the dubbing of Teacher Ryoko.

"Uh-huh." Seeing that he was discovered, Higashiyama walked in directly: "Today's recording and dubbing went smoothly, and Iga-san has been praising me for being spiritual." Gollum~ What to eat tonight? ”

"Beef rice bowl."

"Oh, I can help you taste it."

......

When the minced onion is almost cooked, pour in the potato flour to thicken and stir until the soup is thick.

I took five bowls and put in the rice mixed with plum grains, then spread the beef, and finally drizzled with the sauce.

I grabbed a handful of chopped green onions and scattered them.

"Gollum~"

The sound is particularly loud.

Yu Murakami looked over, and the light in Higashiyama's eyes was almost even more dazzling than the glowing dishes he cooked.

"Alright, let's go to the living room."

"Hey!" Dongshan took one in one hand, and shouted as he walked: "Open the meal~~"

There was a sound of the door opening outside the door, followed by, "Hey, hey, I'm back, are you eating?" ”

Then, there was the lesson of Ai Nakano.

"Concave sauce! Wash your hands first! ”

Yu Murakami took off his apron and washed his hands.

Well, the time card is just right.

When he returned to the living room, the four of them were waiting for him.

Yu Murakami sat down slowly and turned on the TV.

“... This year's typhoon will be bigger than usual, and I hope it won't affect crops..."

Pick up chopsticks.

"I'm moving." X5

The first day of July passed like this.
