I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 207

…

Two days later, Sayuri Sawamura woke up from her dream. It seemed that for some reason, she had a high fever when she was unconscious. However, with her daughter by her side, although she was weak when she woke up, she was fine. .

In the news, the residence of the British Ambassador to Japan suddenly suffered a terrorist attack by an unknown organization and was investigated. Fortunately, most of the people involved in the incident suffered varying degrees of injuries and no one died.

However, no matter what, Sayuri seemed unable to conceal Eiri's suspicion. After recalling the last-minute conversation between Li Yan and her, she still recounted her experience of being separated for more than ten years after giving birth to her. The truth about the affair with her father was told to her daughter. She has always maintained a happy family atmosphere for Yinglili, but in the end it still cannot change the fact that if love is buried, it cannot be rewritten no matter what.

——[Mom, divorce dad. 】

This was a piece of advice that Yinglili, who had become braver in her heart, calmly provided her mother with the feeling of being unable to continue watching her mother continue to be tortured in the false happiness after Yinglili had been troubled for a long time.

Early morning on the third day.

It seems that because of a little friendship, everyone from Sanwa Bunko came to the hospital to visit Sayuri Sawamura who was resting, including Li Yan, whose forehead was bandaged. Amid a burst of laughter, they all gave gifts and then left.

However, among the pile of gifts, only a small flower pot was sent back. After a period of cultivation, the roses that were thought to be dead were once again full of life after being re-cultivated. stand up……

"..."

Looking at the roses by the window, Sayuri, who was leaning quietly on the bed, showed a smile. It seemed that she could also use a new life...

Volume 5 Creators Chasing Dreams Chapter 132 Uesugi Yan’s Book Fan Meeting

It was 7:45 in the morning, in a street in Chiyoda District, Tokyo, and the sky was still a little dark.

The tram on the viaduct rumbled and flashed through the bustling urban streets, while seas of people poured out of the station onto the street. It was very lively and had already filled this electrical appliance commercial street that created a world legend.

This is Akihabara, a bustling electronics shopping street that is rare in the world. It is also a cultural mecca that all residents of otaku culture who love Japanese animation know. As long as you are on this street, there are colorful posters of anime everywhere, figurines, game consoles, and maid cafes.

According to statistics, there are more than 250 electrical appliance stores in Akihabara alone. It is also a place to buy the latest game discs and game consoles released at the same time.

Li Yan has been to Akihabara a few times for shopping, because if you don't have money, it would be fun to come and read the trial magazines here, or look at the figures in the cabinet.

However, this time, it seemed that I had a mission. I arrived at this holy place for geeks early, put enough cash in my wallet, and lined up in a large video game store to buy the latest game called "Neil... Mechanical Troops game.

"It's so cold..."

Such complaints came from time to time in a long queue of customers.

In the early morning, the weather was still a bit cold. Li Yan was gearing up with a group of other fans who had been waiting for a long time, and endured the horror of buying the first batch of game discs to arrive. It can be said that he suffered a lot.

"My fingers are almost frozen...Gabriel, you better play less games, and I will suffer less..."

Li Yan lamented, looking at the more than fifty otakus and otakus in front of him who had queued up earlier than him, and silently thought to himself, he didn't know whether he would be able to buy the first batch of game discs this time.

This time I came to Akihabara to fulfill a promise made with Gabriel a few days ago in the Treaty of Friendship and Mutual Assistance.

In the process of writing the sixth volume of the novel, as always, just like a tradition, Li Yan's writing progress was not smooth. A high-quality novel is always difficult to produce. When he wrote 60,000 words, he fell into a trap. After a period of exhaustion and exhaustion of inspiration, the editing system gave evaluations such as [B], [B-] or even [C+]. In desperation, I had no choice but to find Gabriel, the "Queen Reader", to make improvements. The suggestion actually successfully promoted the plot.

So as a reward, Gabriel gave him money to buy games and asked him to come over and snap up the latest and most popular game. In order to encourage Li Yan to buy the latest game on time, he specifically stated that after he completed the game, he would borrow the money to buy the game. Let him play with it, which can be regarded as a welfare for the poor.

It seemed that he was lucky. Before the first batch was sold out, Li Yan still bought the latest game disc.

By the time I bought the game CD, it was already 8:30. The sun was warming the streets, and the cold feeling was gradually dissipating. After all, it took some time to get here from Shinjuku, so Li Yan went to the bookstore to read it. I spent more than half an hour reading the Overlord book and looking for figures of the female version of Kenshin Uesugi. After taking a break from the busy work, I decided to take the train back to Shinjuku.

Coincidentally, while passing by a large bookstore selling light novels, Li Yan saw people queuing up one after another with a light novel called "Poetry of Law and Politics". Looking inside the glass cabinet, it looked like I saw Shiyu Kasumigaoka wearing an off-white coat, shaking hands and smiling with readers one by one.

"...Teacher Kasumi Shiko?"

Li Yan was slightly stunned, looking at the incomparably beautiful royal sister-type writer, and thought to himself.

We really meet each other everywhere in the world. It seems that we haven't seen her for a while. The last time we met was at the bar to welcome Mashiro Shiina to join Sanwa Bunko.

I recently heard from editor Kagurazaka Iris that the sales of Kasumigaoka Shiu's new book started much more smoothly than when she first wrote the book. It seems that the experience of the sales competition at that time gave her a better understanding of the subject matter and story elements. for further enlightenment.

There is a poster for the light novel "Poetry of Law" posted on the door of this bookstore. The time is 8:30-10:30 in the morning.

It is said that the main story of Kasumi Shiko's new book is about a poor unknown lawyer male protagonist and a lawyer female protagonist who comes from a legal family. Due to an accidental case, the male protagonist was argued in court. The male protagonist used the trust of the street people to find the evidence of the female protagonist's defender. , successfully defeated the popular heroine, and then started a heartwarming story of civil litigation.

Because the style has become more people-friendly and realistic, the sales results are quite good.

It seems that Kasumigaoka Shiyu also read a lot of legal documents and related materials for this purpose, and worked really hard...

"It's so good, it's so good..."

Li Yan looked at the happy atmosphere between Kasumigaoka Shiyu and the readers with envy, and his heart broke.

I really envy Kasumigaoka Shiu's ability to arrange various autograph sessions. It seems that if the total sales exceed 400,000 copies, Sanwa Bunko will basically arrange autograph sessions for the author, just like a Japanese idol's handshake event, to further promote the author's fame. .

But for Uesugi Yan, who has sold nearly 800,000 copies, this can only be a distant and illusory dream.

Not all authors are suitable for holding autograph sessions. For example, for him, Kagurazaka Iris once did organize a autograph session for him. However, after collecting feedback from various channels, his only autograph session was canceled because the risk was too high. A signing session.

"We haven't seen each other for so long. As an old friend, it would be better to go over and congratulate me."

After Li Yan thought to himself, he put on a mask and got into the queue.

"Everyone, thank you for your support of Teacher Xia Shizi's new book, but today's autograph session has ended. I'm really sorry that there are no book fans who wanted to sign. Please also give Teacher Xia Shizi a good rest. Thank you for your hard work today. .”

Kagurazaka Iris, with his usual loud voice, saw that ten thirty passed, bowed and apologized to the team of dozens of people behind him, and shouted with a smile.

Kasumigaoka Shiu also bowed and apologized. In the past, there was usually a break after half an hour at autograph sessions, but this time it seemed that the book effect was obvious. Fans of both old and new books gathered here. She was indeed a little exhausted. .

"..."

The bustling voices of the readers began to make a commotion, and they didn't seem to buy it. After all, some people had been waiting for a long time. After the readers at the back realized that there was no chance, they stepped forward and said some words of support before leaving, while the readers in the front left. In doubt.

"Well, Ms. Editor, would you like to extend it by ten minutes? I can still hold on, and I don't want readers who have been waiting for too long to leave empty-handed." Kasumigaoka Shiu whispered to Kagurazaka Iris on the side.

"Hmm... Okay, let's solve it quickly and don't talk too much with the readers." Kagurazaka Airis smiled and nodded, agreeing to this proposal.

The beautiful girl writer began to sit back in her seat, hurriedly opened the pages of the book and began to sign autographs for the readers in front, one after another, like a worker on an assembly line, and the number of people in line gradually became less and less. .

"Sorry, Teacher Xia Shizi, I forgot to bring your book. Can you sign your name in my CD box..."

As the last reader in the team, the young man sat on his seat, took out the game "NieR: Robot Force", and explained tremblingly.

"What do I need to write for you?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked without raising her head, taking the CD with a smile.

"Just write to congratulate my friend, Ms. Kasumigaoka Shiu, on her new book's getting better results, and send it to Li Yan."

The young man said with a smile.

"...!"

Suddenly, Kasumigaoka Shiyu was stunned for a moment, and then he opened his eyes slightly, raised his head, his cheeks were a little crimson, and he looked at Li Yan sitting opposite him in surprise.

It seems like this is a surprise gift.
