I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 333
But soon, under the eyes of his wife beside him, he did not dare to say any more.
Li Yan also felt that there was a certain truth to this. He could see that Zhenbai's mother, a British woman, although very similar in appearance to Zhenbai, seemed to be an artist trained by an orthodox art academy. Her style was probably A meticulous type who has absolute control over Mashiro's father.
However, this theory was not strong. He always felt that there must be other reasons why Mashiro didn't show it.
"Dad, Mom. My painting is only half finished."
Shiina Mashiro stepped forward and said calmly.
"Since it is a half-painted work, you should wait until the painting is completed before inviting the audience. You child...are you treating a work that you have given half of its life like this?" Shiina's mother looked at her dissatisfied and scolded in a low voice. said.
"There isn't enough time during the summer vacation," Mashiro Shiina replied.
"..."
When Li Yan and others heard this sentence, they felt a little speechless. Not to mention that Shiina Mashiro had already been dismissed from school, and there was no so-called summer vacation at all. What's even more concerning is that this sentence sounds as if it's confident, just like using this painting to determine the outcome just for the sake of time.
"Although it is only half of the work, it is my most proud work."
While everyone was talking about it, Mashiro Shiina once again said something shocking.
"The proudest thing...when did you learn to talk like this..." Shiina's mother looked at her in surprise and asked in a low voice.
"This painting requires Holmes to be here to see it."
Shiina Mashiro continued.
"……Forehead?"
Li Yan was slightly stunned and looked at Shiina Mashiro.
"Holmes, sit over there, just like before." Mashiro Shiina looked at Li Yan and said.
"...Wait a minute, no, Shiina... Do you really plan to continue drawing it?" Li Yan was slightly stunned and thought to himself secretly.
Li Yan sat behind an oil painting table, maintaining a writing posture. He didn't quite understand what Shiina Mashiro meant. But many people understood that the model for the oil painting was a college student named Li Yan.
"Dad, mom, this... is my oil painting."
Under their gaze, Mashiro Shiina did not make any unnecessary movements. She did not pick up a brush or paint. She walked towards the oil painting, grabbed the white waterproof cover that covered the oil painting, and dragged it down like a wave.
"!!"
Everyone, including Ying Lili, was immediately stunned.
"I love the work of Sherlock Holmes and have always wanted to paint the moment he was writing."
Shiina Mashiro stood in front of the painting and asked softly: "It's like a flame, isn't it?"
The oil painting showing Li Yan writing was as dazzling under the light as it was that night. It was obviously an oil painting style, but the real person seemed to be really integrated into the painting, and the early morning light lingered in it. The eyes of an author who is tired of writing are full of fatigue from staying up late. However, even though he is so tired, those eyes contain complex emotions of conception, worry, laziness, and ultimately enjoyment of the progress of the story.
Just like the real person Li Yan sitting there at this moment, reality and oil painting perfectly overlapped in front of everyone who knows oil painting in an instant.
This is the method of using real scenes to complete the entire painting. Although the painting is not completed, the emotions have been integrated into it, allowing the audience to more fully understand the mood given by the painter in painting this scene. The painting is not completed, but it can make people with Competent artists, as well as art-loving audiences, can see the completed works in advance.
Just like the usage of "Guernica" is the same...
If we cannot understand the background of this painting, we will never truly understand the true meaning of this painting.
Everyone looked at the half-finished painting, but completed the most important part, and placed their strongest emotions in that colorful painting.
"..."
When Shiina's parents looked at this painting, why couldn't they see the value of completing it?
"...Dad, Mom, I want to stay with my friends." Shiina Mashiro looked at them and finally expressed her request.
※※※
The afternoon of the next day was at the C89 venue in Tokyo.
"Congratulations, all the works are sold out!!"
In July, on the last day of the week at the C89 venue, a sales booth finally sold out all the works at three o'clock in the afternoon. As a result, the employees at the venue rang the bell for this artist who was about to retire from the fandom. Gun salute, surrounding customers and authors applauded.
"Thank you, thank you all. I will miss you all in the future, and Eri Kashiwagi will work harder to draw works that everyone likes!"
Sawamura Eiri stood up in the crowd, smiled happily, with tears of farewell and happiness in her eyes, and bowed and thanked the people around her.
After coming back from the UK, Eiriri, who only had one day to sell, finally painted the most satisfactory work. Although the subject matter was about the love story between oil painting girls, Li Yan felt a little sorry for Mashiro and Nanami, but as long as If you don't know, there is no problem.
This is Eriri's fandom farewell party. On this day, the people who came to help were missing Sayuri Sawamura, but they gathered the cooperation of Sanwa Bunko authors including Kagurazaka Iris, Kasumigaoka Shiu, Izumi Masamune, and Senjumura. Sei, Uesugi En, Shido Kunimitsu, Kusanagi Ryuki, and Shiina Mashiro after returning from England, all worked hard to sell the books in their hands.
Even Eromanga, who never goes out, went live to express his blessings.
"It's like using Sanhe Wenku's power to sell books..." Li Yan thought with some complicated emotions as he thought about this fact.
He briefly looked at Shiina Mashiro next to him. Who would have thought that yesterday, the three of them were still working tirelessly to bring Shiina Mashiro back in England. As a result, Shiina Mashiro used her own strength to successfully convince her parents. Her method almost made her People are astonished... She should be someone that others can rely on.
Shiina's parents finally agreed with that competition. The outcome was clear and fair. Shiina Mashiro's paintings in Japan became more perfect, so they had to send Shiina Mashiro back to Japan. Inside a high school...
However, when returning, Nanami also realized before that Shiina's parents may simply have feelings for wanting to keep Mashiro firmly by their side after discovering that their daughter went to Japan alone. They said a lot about the future. In terms of words, it would be better to say that the parents have no idea how to express their dependence and love to their daughter. Only Mashiro's grandfather knows Mashiro's true feelings.
However, when her parents asked about the painting "Old Thief", Mashiro Shiina's answer was a bit unclear.
——[I don’t know, I might never be able to finish painting in my lifetime...]
"Holmes, I want to eat Baumkuchen."
Mashiro Shiina, who was standing next to a pile of 18 forbidden books whose covers were about to be mosaic-marked, suddenly looked at Li Yan and said.
"Okay, I promised to treat you to food in the UK...you can buy it yourself next time." Li Yan put down the billboard and said.
Although his "assistant" has changed a lot, the essence seems to have remained the same.
As he walked out of the venue and rode his bicycle leisurely to the bakery, suddenly, a strong gust of wind passed over Li Yan's head. He raised his head in shock and saw a huge evil dragon. , and a relatively petite white dragon actually flew towards Senior Xiaolin's company.
"...Why don't you change the way you travel now?" Li Yan raised his head and thought helplessly.
The living circle of One Yuan Apartment, Sanhe Library, etc. has finally returned to its normal state, and will continue to do so...
Volume 7.5 New grudges and old grudges, a dangerous episode Chapter 194 Yukino’s way of light novels
Summer vacation is a time of paradise for students.
It is already early July, and the hot sunshine has made Tokyo's reinforced concrete scorching hot. Summer is coming, and naturally the first thing to do is go to the beach for a good vacation. All major beaches in Japan are overcrowded, almost like private beaches in anime. Completely different things. There are also some college students who have gone back to the countryside to be with rice fields and forests, which may be a good choice.
However, for people who don't have much money, it is natural to spend leisure time in a single apartment, away from the busy days, which can be regarded as a kind of paradise-like and comfortable life.
