Black Cat's Meow ...... The clever plan is actually to take your own works to the publishing house and submit them directly to the door, and then take the opportunity to find the responsible editor of "Sister Kong".

The denikaki library that signed "Sister Kong" is a fairly large publishing house, and those who can come to the door to submit articles are professional or semi-professional writers, and in principle, they do not accept direct submissions from ordinary people - no matter how wonderful their works are.

If ordinary people want to submit, they can apply for the annual newcomer award, as long as an editor feels that the work has potential, even if it fails to win the award, they will contact the author for guidance.

Although this is the case in principle, but the rules are dead, people are alive, relying on the "relationship" of the Saori family, the black cat, the second creation of the same people, the direct submission of the same people, was also accepted by the editorial department of the denki library as an exception.

- Although acceptance is not the same as signing a contract, the editor can't just throw it in the trash without reading it, or even if he wants to treat it perfunctorily with a formulaic reply, he must personally talk to Black Cat about the work.

This is not the shady curtain of the denok bunku, but the shady curtain of human society, the shady curtain of power and wealth.

Although Saori is very reluctant to mention her family's affairs, but through this "relationship" that can make Dengeki Bunko an exception, anyone with a little common sense can guess that her family background is really unusual.

Together with the black cat, under the pretext of submission, it was Chu Xuan who infiltrated the inside of the electric shock library to "reconnoitre".

For the sake of "mission needs", the two pretended to be brother and sister, and the black cat finally called Chu Xuan "brother", which was really a big victory for sister control.

In the process of communicating with the responsible editor "Pudding", who looks as scary as a ghost, the other party criticizes Black Cat's practice of relying on connections to go through the back door, and then criticizes her "Maschera" doujinshi as worthless.

However, although this editor is very stern and obviously expresses his disgust for finding a relationship and going through the back door, he did not give a bad review of Black Cat's work because of personal revenge, but gave a very low evaluation after seeing it seriously.

After the editor criticized the whole with great dedication, he criticized the black cat's work in detail page by page, sentence by sentence, and spent four hours criticizing the black cat to the fullest, and even cried on the spot.

I don't know if the black cat regrets it.,She took advantage of Saori's relationship.,When helping Kirino investigate the plagiarist, she sought some benefits for herself.,As a result, although I can finally listen to the opinions of professional editors.,But I was severely hit by the other party.。

Although the editor's words couldn't be more correct, Chu Xuan still wanted to defend the black cat, but the very frustrated black cat persuaded his "brother" and gritted his teeth and said that he would definitely work hard.

Later, Chu Xuan and Black Cat found out that this responsible editor, who was strict but indeed very serious, turned out to be the editor in charge of "Sister Kong", so they also explained the "business" to be done in the name of submission.

Although the editor in charge didn't want to believe that the author he was responsible for had plagiarized someone else's work, he still gave Chu Xuan, Black Cat, and Kyosuke a chance to confront the plagiarists of "Sister Kong" face to face.

And he carefully analyzed the evidence on Chu Xuan's side - after Kyosuke found the original manuscript of the sequel to "Sister Sora" from Kirino's room, he resolutely made the judgment that Kirino was the real author of "Sister Sora", and planned to consider his own whereabouts after reporting to his boss.

Eventually, the plagiarist honestly admitted that he had plagiarized Kirino's work, and he got in touch with Kirino on the same day.

After Kirino recovered from the cold, the plagiarist went to her with Mr. Kumagai, and then explained to her what happened and apologized to her, and Kirino simply forgave the other party.

And the part of Chu Xuan, Black Cat, and Kyosuke secretly helping was hidden from Kirino at their own request.

The plagiarism of the original manuscript was completely resolved, and it was already in early February.

In a few days, it was the most important festival for adolescent boys and girls—

February 14, St. Valentine's Day.

The night before this festival, Ayase rarely knocked on Chu Xuan's door for something other than studying.

"Big brother - are you free, please come out for a while."

After a while, the door lock of Chu Xuan's room opened with a "click".

"Ayase, what's the matter?"

Chu Xuan pushed down his reflective glasses, although it was still that expressionless face, it felt as if the lines were a little softer.

"That...... Could you please come into the kitchen?

There's something I want my big brother to help me taste it. ”

Ayase blushed a little for some reason, and peeked at Chu Xuan's reaction as she spoke, but of course Chu Xuan agreed without any reaction on his face.

"Is this, making chocolates for Valentine's Day?"

After following Ayase to the kitchen, Chu Xuan glanced at the chocolates on the table that had been melted in a pot and then re-solidified into a heart shape and other shapes, and asked lightly.

"Although、It's Valentine's Day.,But I don't have a boyfriend......

This is for Kirino and...... Some other people who are close to you. ”

Ayase walked to the counter with a red face and pinched a few pieces of chocolate that had been cleaned from the mold from the remaining material scraps on the table.

"I, I just want to invite my eldest brother to try it, don't get me wrong!"

Ayase raised her arm and brought the chocolate chips to Chu Xuan's mouth, as if she reluctantly twisted her head to the side, refusing to look at his face.

“……”

Chu Xuan didn't say anything, his glasses examined the chocolate reflectively, then lowered his head slightly, and directly ate the chocolate in Ayase's hand into his mouth.

When Chu Xuan's lips touched Ayase's fingers, the girl's body trembled involuntarily, and her pretty face, which was forced to be calm, also turned red.

Then she lowered her arm, hid the hand behind her back, and rubbed her fingers together, as if feeling the temperature on Chu Xuan's lips.

"How, how? Is the taste okay?

The chocolate I gave Kirino last year, and although she said it was very delicious, I knew that my level was not as good as that of a professional chef. ”

Ayase lowered her head slightly, her eyes looked upwards at Chu Xuan's face, and she showed a shy smile that was a little expectant.

“……”

Chu Xuan didn't answer immediately, but thought about it seriously, and re-tasted the taste of chocolate residue just now in his mouth, and then pushed down his reflective glasses and asked very thoughtfully:

"Need my help?"

"Uh-huh...... No more! ”

After getting Chu Xuan's euphemistic evaluation, Ayase, whose face turned red, refused his help with some annoyance, and drove the useless eldest brother out of the kitchen.

ps: The plagiarism of the original manuscript has greatly plumped up the image of the black cat, and we can't carry a lot of the original text in this paragraph, so we have to explain it briefly, sigh.
