I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 228
On the message, I wrote a paragraph: [Ying Lili, I always feel that you have put too much pressure on yourself recently. Our journey will never be smooth sailing. We must make different adjustments under different circumstances. Only when we can afford and let go of the journey can we remember what our mood was like when we set out. Shiina is working very hard on herself, and recently she has even started to master the housework that she is least good at. I feel ashamed in front of her state of mind, but I think I might be able to give her a try. It’s not a pity to lose to a person who works hard, it’s a pity that we forget what we should do. Therefore, the proud and talented teacher Eri Kashiwagi that I know should have the confidence to not compromise on his original intention like me, right? 】
Throughout the whole paragraph, it seemed that Li Yan had already expected that her mood had changed and wavered. After worrying several times, he finally decided to send a message to remind her again. When she was at her most vulnerable, Yinglili was a little distracted when she read the message, but soon she could understand Li Yan's meaning and intention, and her chaotic mood gradually calmed down, at least it was no longer the same embarrassing panic as just a few minutes ago. .
Li Yan did not take sides between Eiri Sawamura and Mashiro Shiina. He had been watching the battle carefully, watching the progress of Mashiro Shiina and the transformation of Eiri Sawamura's efforts. He could not intervene in the victory or defeat. , all he can do is hope that the participants will not be changed in nature.
The competition has not reached the point where everything is on the line, just let it go and compete...
"..."
Standing in the woods in the spring breeze, Yinglili finally had a smile on her lips. She wiped her eyes secretly and then sent a reply.
——[Yinglili: I won’t compromise. 】
"Hey, Shiina."
She plucked up the courage, picked up the brush again, continued sketching on her drawing board, and whispered to Mashiro Shiina next to her.
"Yeah." Shiina Mashiro nodded and looked at her.
"The oil paintings you drew are really wonderful and full of beautiful colors. So, I can ask you, who is so talented, what is your original intention for suddenly choosing to come to Japan as an illustrator?"
Yinglili asked meaningfully. She had never understood Mashiro, and had always regarded her as an untouchable opponent. But this time, she suddenly became interested in understanding Mashiro's mood in making this decision.
"...Oil paintings are always quiet, while novels have a beginning and an end."
Shiina Mashiro's eyes were as bright and clear as snow. He looked at her quietly and said, "It's interesting because there is a future. Sherlock Holmes's novels are very interesting. I want to step into his story."
After Yinglili heard it, she was still a little surprised. The purpose was very simple, but even the words were like a painting.
However, her eyes that were as bright as blue gems showed a gradually relaxed mood, and she smiled and said to Mashiro Shiina: "So that's it... You are indeed Shiina. As for me, I would choose to be the one next to the otaku Li. The purpose of the illustrator is exactly the opposite of yours. My purpose is that that guy took me out of my own story without authorization. I don’t plan to lose to you easily, so why not use the Newcomer Comic Contest in May to decide the winner? Negative, although the requirements for illustrations are different from comics, what you and I are competing against is not the drawing skills, but the emotions integrated into the story, so compete with me in drawing, Shiina."
In the woods, the dead leaves that have not been blown down by the wind in winter are falling down. Under the crisp buds, the fallen leaves are flying between the two girls. With a smile on the corner of Yinglili's pretty mouth, she holds the brush and finally gives the order to the painter. challenge letter.
This is why creators are also called dream chasers in Japan.

In the palace of Shuri Castle, a tour group from China is roaming around the interior of the palace, which is dominated by red colors, led by a tour guide. Although this royal palace of the ancient Ryukyu Kingdom is a replica, it must be said that Ryukyu has still restored it very carefully.
The palace is either big or small. Most of the buildings have a Tang style. The yellow bricks and red wall paint symbolize the noble status of the Wang family, but the gate uses a Japanese-style arch. The style and drawings are somewhat similar to the style of southern Fujian. I have to say that most tourists who come here will be attracted by the architecture that absorbs the styles of various places.
"Everyone, the gates of Shuri Castle include North Palace, South Palace, Shurimon and multiple gates. Because the exact founding date of this palace has not yet been confirmed. It was during the Sanzan Period of the Ryukyu Kingdom, which was the 11th century. In the 14th century, it was the capital of the Zhongshan Kingdom."
The tour guide introduced in front of another city gate, but as she spoke, she looked again at the suspicious young man who was mixed in with her team and listened to her introduction to the historical sites for free. Although the tour guide There is no right to drive away such passers-by, but this is the first time I have encountered such a patient and shameless independent traveler.
"!"
Li Yan noticed the tour guide's gaze and pretended to look at other scenery around him.
He had no choice but to look at the building dryly, still unable to understand its significance. He could only follow the more advanced tour guide and listen to her explanation.
While following the tour group and listening to the introduction, he felt more and more emotional about history. He couldn't help but once again told an old man in the tour group who liked to study history: "It turns out that the history of an ancient country with a population of hundreds of thousands It’s so interesting, and as expected, it’s more interesting if there is a tour guide explaining it than if there is no explanation.”
"Yes, in fact, wherever there are people, there is history. There is no distinction between high and low human civilizations. They are just composed of different echoes due to the different evolutions of the terrain and the unknown. Use prejudice and negative views to discriminate against others. Regional civilization is originally a stupid value. However, it is rare for young people like you to like history so much. Other young people have gone away long ago."
The white-haired old man wearing reading glasses said with some relief.
"I like people's stories and have been writing novels. Although I studied science, after all, exploration and discovery, and humanities are also part of science, so I will always remember history."
When the tour group left Shuri Castle, Li Yan said those words to the old man and chatted happily with each other. He responded to the old man's academic encouragement with these words as an understanding of history.
History is rewritten due to different conditions, but there are no ifs in history, only inevitability. However, his history was rewritten. He, who was no longer in this world, did not go back after history was rewritten, but continued to move forward, remembering the history he had missed, and trying to remind himself not to Make the wrong move again.
"Huh, we've basically visited the most valuable attractions in Shuri Castle. It's only 1:30 in the afternoon, and we still have more than an hour to gather. I'll take a look at other inconspicuous corners. Well, the advantage of traveling independently is that you can see more clearly the parts of scenic spots that are not commercially developed.”
Li Yan looked pleased and began to wander around this ancient city on his own.
Just when he walked to the entrance of a palace wall, Li Yan suddenly heard the sound of Qian Shou Village's levy.
"Absolutely, not allowed."
Qian Shou Cun Zheng suddenly made a firm and stern voice.
"Well, who are you arguing with, Teacher Qianju?" Li Yan was slightly stunned. He stood in front of the entrance and looked over. He saw the stairwell not far away, where Kagurazaka Iris and Senjumura Sei were both. , looks like they are discussing something.
"If Mr. Izumi's new work no longer writes combat novels but instead writes youth romance novels, Mr. Izumi's transformation with boring dreams will only ruin his career as a writer who has finally made progress." Senju Seimura Said unceremoniously.
"Ah, even if you say that, the editor has no right to interfere with the type of the author's next work. I have already read the outline given by Mr. Izumi. It is not as boring as you think. Mr. Senju, even if you are so confused , it is impolite to interfere at will with other people's works. I am talking to you because I hope that there should not be such conflicts in the writing relationship between you and Izumi-sensei. You should also break away from Izumi-sensei's influence and go your own way. It's time to start writing." Kagurazaka Iris' eyes became serious and he persuaded Senjumura Sei.
"...It is useless to say more. Since the editor lady is not going to stop Izumi-sensei, I will correct his misunderstandings on his way. As long as you watch, editor lady, the next Sanwa Bunko short story competition will be held. , I’m going to destroy his chances of publishing, that’s all.”
Senjumura Sei was not shaken in his heart. After finishing speaking, he bowed to Kagurazaka Iris, turned around and left.
The black sailor suit swayed slightly in the wind, and the youthful atmosphere seemed to be tinged with a persistent and somewhat twisted love atmosphere. It really made people feel that reality was more exciting than fiction.
Li Yan, who was watching the last part of the conversation at the entrance, could understand what they were probably talking about. After looking at the back of the girl who was leaving, he walked out, looked at Kagurazaka Iris, and asked, "So, What happened to the destruction?”
"Huh, you're eavesdropping on the girls' conversations. You're getting worse and worse now, Mr. Uesugi." Kagurazaka Iris looked up at him and teased with a smile.
"This is a public place, so there is no problem with what I heard. Let's get back to the topic, so I ask, why did Senju-sensei suddenly have the intention to destroy Izumi-sensei's new book?"
Li Yan walked to Kagurazaka Iris and continued to ask.
"Sure enough, I feel like you and Mr. Senju have some kind of hidden agreement. Well...it doesn't hurt to tell you. After all, you seem to have been involved, Mr. Uesugi."
Kagurazaka Iris smiled and said: "I am your editor and your friend. I am not telling you these words as an editor. Although I think it will be interesting if this development continues, I still hope that I will try my best... Everyone May you spend these two days of vacation happily."
"Teacher Uesugi, do you believe that there is a real-life case of indirectly falling in love with an author at first sight because you really like his works?"
Standing in the empty palace, Kagurazaka Iris asked curiously.
"..." Li Yan was shocked, and Kasumigaoka Shiyu was really right.
"In real life, there should be countless such cases. There are always some well-known writers who have inexplicable relationships with their female fans. This is evidence of the fact. However, I have been an editor for several years, and I have always been I still believe that the author is the author and the work is the work, and good feelings cannot be confused. No matter how charming the work is, the author of this work is probably still a scumbag."
When Kagurazaka Iris said this, he couldn't help but think of something and said with a smile: "Sorry, I'm not talking about Izumi-sensei. Izumi-sensei's works are a bit erotic, but he himself is not a promiscuous person. This is also a factual evidence. But Mr. Uesugi, your works are just like the words, and the same is true for Mr. Kasumi Shiko, but you are special. I understand this very well, so I hope that Mr. Senju can wake up and one day, She should be able to understand, but during this period of time, I'm worried that she will do something outrageous, that's all."
Although Kagurazaka Iris's smile was still there, Li Yan could also see that she had been integrated into society for some time and did not talk casually. He had also experienced the "love at first sight" experience. Whether it was right or wrong, neither he nor Kagurazaka could give an answer. However, now that Senjumura Zheng had reached this step of confrontation, for Li Yan, he felt It has changed.

The Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium has to be said to be one of the most popular tourist destinations for all tourists.
It's like being in the deep blue sea. On the other side of the glass is the world under the sea. There are tuna swimming in various groups, whale sharks with stripes on their bodies, and various manta rays that are flat in the water. Countless fish of all sizes are swimming in the deep sea.
"..."
Although he had always learned about the aquarium on the Internet, this was the first time he came to the aquarium in person. Li Yan was immediately shocked, especially when the whale shark swam past his eyes. He felt so Small.
