Chapter 108: Polarization

When the bookstore opened its doors and opened as usual, a crowd of customers waiting to buy books had already gathered outside the door.

Compared to the slightly cold appearance of the past, today's bookstores are extremely crowded.

At least.

In front of the shelves in the bookstore that sell the latest periodicals, I was surrounded by customers who came to buy books.

"Boss, please help me wrap this up."

The first customers to enter the bookstore struggled to squeeze through the crowd after grabbing the book they wanted.

The crowd pushed and shoved him, and by the time he reached the counter of the bookstore, he was already a little out of breath.

But his face did not show an irritated expression because of this situation, but excitedly put the book in his hand on the counter.

Can't wait to urge the bookstore owner.

"Hey."

The bookstore owner picks up the books on the counter, scans the code and helps the customers pack the books.

The customer happily paid and walked towards the outside of the bookstore as if he were holding something precious.

A long line formed in front of the counter, with each guest holding the same book in their hands.

Is the pure literary weekly "Light Things" of the Yuyin Society?

The bookstore owner thought to himself.

It's been a while since I've seen "Light Things" sell so well.

Regarding the sudden best-selling of Yuyin Society's "Light Things", he didn't feel too much surprise.

To be precise, long before the door opened for sale, he had secretly left a copy of "Light Things" for himself, waiting for the bookstore to be a little free, and then take it to read.

After all......

"Light Things" has published a new work by the teacher of the small courtyard.

The owner of the bookstore can't forget it until now, when Mr. Liuying's first work was serialized in "Light Things", the bookstore exploded.

The wind chimes rang at the door of the bookstore for almost a morning.

Every now and then, a customer would come into the store to buy that literary journal.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the bookstore returned to its original tranquility.

Taking advantage of this brief silence, the bookstore owner walked over to the shelves and adjusted the layout of the books on the shelves.

He placed "Light Things" in the most prominent position on the bookshelf.

Then, after a slight hesitation.

The owner of the bookstore picked up a stack of "Light Things" from the bookshelf and walked to the table where the bookstore entered the door.

He also put the weekly magazine there.

In this way, customers who enter the store to buy a book can notice it the moment they enter the door.

Even passers-by can see its presence through the glass.

After doing this, the bookstore owner returned to the back of the counter.

He reached out and pulled out the copy of "Light Things" that he had left for himself, and pinched the pages with his fingers.

Open the Catalog section at the beginning.

His eyes quickly locked on the position of the [Pure Love] section in the catalog, and his finger ran the name below.

"The small courtyard is flowing, the small courtyard is flowing...... Ah, in this ......"

There isn't much suspense.

With just a move of his fingers, he found the pen name of the small courtyard waterfly.

Sure enough, it's still a pure love theme.

The bookstore owner followed the work corresponding to the pen name, and it was a long list of titles.

Teacher Ryuharu Konoin seems to like to give a long name to his work.

He flipped through the pages by their number, and finally stopped at one page.

["Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You Date" Author: Xiaoyuan Liuying. 】

Tomorrow's me dating yesterday's you?

It looks like a rather strange name, just like the last book "Tonight, Even if this love dissipates from the world", people can't guess what Mr. Koin wants to write.

He looked towards the beginning and saw a tweet written by Ryoichi Kishida.

[When I love you the most, it is the time when you are the strangest to me. 】

……………………………………

Almost at the same time, everyone who bought the weekly magazine "Light Things".

I saw the latest work of the small courtyard teacher Liuying.

While they were happy to see the new work of the author they liked, a touch of confusion rose in their hearts.

Because of the tweet at the beginning.

When I loved you the most, was it when you were the strangest to me?

For some reason, their minds actually thought of the plot in the previous book of Xiaoyuan Liuying.

Total feeling.

This tweet can also be used between Toru Kamiya and Shinori Hino.

A bad feeling arose.

Could it be ......

Mr. Ryuharu Konoin's new work is based on the setting from the previous book.

Because in reality, there are indeed many writers and teachers who will continue to apply the routines of famous works after writing a famous work.

What's more, many authors in pure love literature are now imitating the setting of Mr. Koinaka's first work.

Such speculation has made many people's hearts uneasy.

Puzzled conjectures and curiosity about the strange title drove them to read it.

Love at first sight on the train, confession on the platform of the station, first date......

The smooth plot and delicate brushstrokes gradually fascinated them.

Looking at the clumsy appearance of Li Nanshan Gaoshou, it is like seeing the self of the person who once worked hard to pursue love.

The pages in his hand were turned page by page.

They are deeply caught in the love that rises in the wind, full of the clumsiness and youth of the two of them.

Fukuju Aimi always responds to everything about Nanshan Takashou with an amazing fit.

The corners of the mouth rise slightly unconsciously.

It wasn't until the last page was turned that the story came to an abrupt end.

The smile on his face stiffened, and the beautiful images that kept coming to his mind seemed to be scattered by a punch.

In a flash.

A sense of longing rose from the bottom of my heart.

It's gone again......

Immediately after that, the forum of Yuyin Society's "Light Things" became hot again.

"Bastard! Why is the teacher's always broken when he is looking at it, why can't he add more pages to the teacher?! ”

What does the title "Tomorrow's Me Date with Yesterday's You" mean? Isn't that really a sick sentence? ”

"Doesn't anyone think that the content of that editor's tweet is similar to the content of Mr. Koina's last book? Could it be that in the content of this book now, Nanshan Gaoshou or Fufushou Aimi also suffers from amnesia, and someone will die suddenly......"

"Although it's not enjoyable to watch, I have to say that Mr. Xiaoyuan's description of love is really too delicate, and it always makes me feel that there is, ah, it turns out that love should be like this......"

“……”

There are more and more posts on the forum about "Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You", and they are discussing the content enthusiastically.

Compare the two works of the small courtyard firefly.。

Gradually, the voices in the forum split into two factions.

One group questioned that Xiaoyuan Liuying's new work was an extension of the old routine of the previous book, and there was nothing new in it.

On the other hand, they believe that the new work of the small courtyard will have a setting worth looking forward to.

Chaotic voices quarreled.

Like two stirred waves, rolling wildly.

……

The editorial department of "Light Things" of Yuyin Society.

Ryoichi Kishida looked at the noisy crowd in the forum, and his brows couldn't help but lock.

Why did they quarrel inexplicably.

Ryoshi Kishida scrolled the mouse wheel with his fingers and flipped through the posts in the forum.

Soon he found some clues.

Posts on the forums have become polarized, even though everyone has their own opinions.

But Kishida Ryoichi found some users who kept jumping sideways on both sides.

My heart suddenly rose.

If nothing else, someone should be leading the rhythm in the forum.

"Ryoichi, have you read the posts in the forum?" The editor, who was sitting not far away, asked, pointing to the computer screen on the table.

Ryoichi Kishida raised his head with a helpless smile on his face: "It has become one of the hottest posts on the forum...... The situation looks a bit bad......"

"So what's going on? Did the teacher really use the routine of the previous book? ”

As soon as the words came out, all the eyes of the surrounding editors fell on Ryoichi Kishida.

Since the release of the work on "Light Things" by Mr. Liuying in the small courtyard.

Ryoichi Kishida became the editor in charge of Mr. Ryuharu Koin, and in addition to Ryoichi Kishida, Mr. Koina's manuscript may only be read by the editor-in-chief Teruo Omiya.

Facing everyone's inquiring gaze, Kishida Ryoichi was slightly silent.

He has only read the first half of the manuscript of "Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's Dating You", and the second half of the manuscript has not yet been sent to the editorial department.

If you were to be a different author, this kind of serialization is almost not allowed.

But the other party is a teacher who single-handedly helped "Light Things" open a small courtyard with the theme of pure love.

At the behest of the editor-in-chief Teruo Omiya, although he has not yet received a follow-up manuscript from Mr. Koinaka, "Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You Date" has also been officially serialized in the latest issue of "Light Things" weekly.

Speaking of which, Mr. Koin is the same as all the settings he said on the phone.

"Mr. Koina's new work does not apply the setting of the previous book, but a new setting...... All I can say is that it's going to be even better than the last book, which Neon never had......"

Ryoichi Kishida slowly shook his head and explained to everyone.

His voice was steady, as if he were stating some kind of fact.

When everyone heard this, they fell into a slight silence.

"Do you want to say something in the forum...... After all, it's all like that. An editor spoke.

"Say what? As long as Mr. Koinakain's work continues to be serialized, those people will naturally know. ”

Another veteran editor retorted, looking at Ryoichi Kishida as he spoke,

"This kind of thing is always inevitable, and the teacher of Xiaoyuan used a work to tell the potential of the whole literary world about the theme of pure love...... When a teacher releases a new work, it is inevitable that there will always be some people with ulterior motives who want to do something...... Ryoichi, you must know that almost every publishing house has an extra pure love section in its journal now......"

Listening to the words of the seniors in the editorial department, Ryoichi Kishida remembered the accounts he had just seen in the forum.

His hands rested on his desk, his eyes thoughtful.

……………………………………

A refreshing wind blew in the street, gently stirring the cheeks of the crowd.

"Actually...... The Hain Society has sent a sample to the author, so there is no need to buy it in the bookstore. ”

Hayabusa Kimura looked at the bag that was packing from the bookstore, which contained the Tomorrow's Smoke from the weekly magazine "Light Things" that he had just bought.

After learning that his new book was on sale today, Tomorrow Smoke dragged him to the bookstore to buy periodicals.

Although Hayabusa Kimura had told her more than once, the Hayabusa had already sent the sample to her home in advance.

However, Tomorrow Smoke still strongly asked to go to the bookstore to buy books.

"It's different, the sample is the sample magazine...... "Tomorrow's delicate little face is wearing a mask, and the eyes are staring at the young man's face, "This is Hayabusa-chan who went to buy it with me, and such a thing will be remembered for a long, long time." ”

The girl said, her fingers stroking the bag containing the weekly.

"Do you remember it......

Kimura Hayabusa was stunned and looked down at Asuki beside him.

The black mask was hidden, and only a pair of smart eyes were exposed.

Her eyes were half-bent, and strands of hair fluttered lightly across her forehead.

"There are a lot of people in the bookstore just now who are buying this weekly, and I've heard the people in front of me keep saying the words Xiaoyuan Liuying...... Those people are all fans of Hayabusa-chan. ”

Tomorrow smoke seemed to think of something, and said with his head tilted.

Hayabusa Kimura shook his head and said in a slow voice.

"After all, it's the day when "Light Things" is released every week, and it's not surprising that there are many people buying it."

"Not really."

The girl's body lightly bumped Kimura's arm, and said in a serious tone,

"The last time "Tonight, Even If This Love Dissipates from the World" was serialized on "Light Things", there were not so many people, and only a few people bought it."

"Huh? Is it...... Smoke remembers it really clearly. ”

The corners of Kimura's mouth raised a slight arc.

"It's just that Hayabusa-chan doesn't pay attention at all......" Tomorrow smoked his mouth and pouted slightly.

As she spoke, she reached out and took out the "Light Things" weekly magazine from the bag in the bookstore, and the gray cover belt was comfortably cool.

Let tomorrow smoke can't help but open the white tender palm and stick it on it.

After some rubbing, he reached out and opened the pages of the weekly.

Following the journal's table of contents, she quickly found the location.

With the flip of her fingers, "Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You" appeared in front of her eyes.

Although about the plot, she already knows perfectly.

But when Tomorrow Smoke sees the words in form, there is still a sense of anticipation.

Glancing at Tomorrow who was reading a journal with both hands, Hayabusa Kimura slowed down too much.

The two of them staggered their steps and slowly walked forward.

The bright light fell on the pages of the book in Asuki's hand, and the reflection of the pages made the girl's long eyelashes glow with a soft light.

The breeze ruffled the messy hair around her ears.

"Pure love seems to have become very hot...... "Asuka smoked fingers flipped through the pages.

Originally, there was only one pure love section, but now there are a lot of works.

The girl closed the page in her hand and looked up at Hayata Kimura on the side, "Before Hayabusa-chan's serialization, I hadn't read a literary journal for a long time. ”

"Why?" Hayabusa Kimura wondered.

"Because those works are so sad, always inexplicably sad...... As if lifeless, the characters in it always want to end their lives. ”
