Chapter 655 455 Polar Reversal

Eri’s concern for Hojo Kyousuke made her feel uneasy. This idiot, he had made so much progress, but he would immediately become a cub when he encountered something related to Hojo Kyousuke.

Although she often competed with Momotaro for the IQ ceiling of Ruyi Ryo, no one could deny the girl’s intelligence. Wearing a well-received mask for ten years, it was absolutely superhuman to be able to do such a thing. So Eriri easily judged how much impact Tsuruta Masahiro was doing now. The other party’s words completely put Kyousuke on the opposite side of the mystery novel world and completely portrayed Kyousuke as a big villain.

The girl hugged the warm little girl in her arms tightly, but the cute little angel could not give her any comfort at all. Now she just wanted to run to Kyousuke’s side with her skirt lifted and stepped on the round tables, grab his hand and tell him that he could tell her whatever he needed, because they were accomplices.

Yukinoshita Yukino next to her looked at Eriri’s anxious look and sighed silently in her heart. She realized that her mood was a little complicated. But it is hard to tell whether I envy Eriri's clear and pure innocence, who can cry and laugh whenever she wants, or the simple love that can be seen at a glance.

"You envy that she has someone to worry about, Yukino."

The teasing words came to my ears, like the whisper of a devil.

Yukinoshita did not turn her head, but moved her lips slightly, wanting to say something to Eriri, but before she could speak, she heard Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was sitting opposite her, say:

"Do you think Kyosuke is a good person?"

"Of course!"

Eriri did not think at all, and subconsciously retorted:

"What a joke, my chores are of course a good person!"

Yes, not only a good person, but also a superhero, your cat food knight, right?

Over there, Nataro covered her mouth with her little hand and laughed.

"Only a fool like you would think so."

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled helplessly, and in addition to helplessness, there seemed to be a sense of pampering in her smile. For Eriri, even if she saw Kyosuke holding a bamboo sword and slashing dozens of people, she would probably only interpret it as Kyosuke being chivalrous, and even severely reprimand those who were beaten for not kneeling on the ground and washing their necks.

Thinking of this, Kasumigaoka suddenly froze, because she thought of what happened at the Carbonic Acid Company before. At that time, Eriri, the idiot, thought that Kyosuke had killed someone, and then this guy's first reaction was to kill Akane Ayaka to silence her, and resolutely decided to become an accomplice.

While thinking, she subconsciously turned her head and began to look, and as expected, she saw Akane Ayaka on the table behind her on the right. The woman's aura was really amazing, and she was very conspicuous in the crowd. Now she was sitting at the same table with several editors of Kyosuke.

At this time, noticing Kasumigaoka Utaha's gaze, Akane Ayaka over there raised her glass to greet her, and also used her eyes to confront Eriri, making a funny expression.

Miss Witch could probably guess what the other party meant. This was to mock Eriri for being a crybaby. Kasumigaoka agreed with this. Eriri usually pretended to be a tsundere, but her emotions were so easy to understand. Otherwise, if she was really a tsundere, she should have kept her love for Kyosuke in her heart until she died! It would not be like this now. Even a blind person could see her concern for Kyosuke.

What a scheming woman!

But then again, look at Akane Hongsaka over there. She is obviously Kyosuke's partner, but now she doesn't seem to have any worries at all. That's because Akane Hongsaka, who was once severely defeated by Kyosuke, knows that when it comes to doing evil, Kyosuke is definitely not inferior to anyone.

Look at Glass over there. She also has no worries. Only Eriri, this idiot, would naively think that Kyosuke is a good person.

In order to prevent this idiot from ruining Kyosuke's plan on impulse, Kasumigaoka thought for a moment and said:

"What Tsuruta Masajo said makes sense, and those big figures in the literary world are probably almost convinced by him..."

"What are you waiting for? Kill him quickly!" Eriri did not hesitate, and Kashiko in her arms also raised her little fist and roared.

"But! No matter how reasonable his words are, no matter how beautiful his trick is, it's useless!" Kasumigaoka was not moved at all.

"Why?"

"Because Kyosuke is not a person who likes to reason at all."

The black-haired girl said, with a slight upturned corner of her mouth. She no longer paid attention to Eriri, but turned around and looked in the direction of the podium, looking at Hojo Kyosuke, her wine-red eyes flashing with beautiful light.

Yes, Hojo has never been a good person, Yukinoshita nodded in agreement. She also had a hunch in her heart, knowing that Hojo must have been prepared, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of how the other party would respond.

If it were me...

The girl thought to herself. For many reasons, she had read all of Hojo Kyosuke's works more than twice, including two mystery novels four times. If she were in Hojo Kyosuke's situation at this moment, she felt that she would refute from a professional perspective. Because the tricks in "The Devotion of Suspect X" are also very exciting, and the reflection on social phenomena has a strong shadow of Matsumoto Seicho. As long as she starts from this perspective, she is very confident that she can refute Tsuruta Masao's words and reverse the situation.

Thinking of this, Yukinoshita Yukino hesitated for a moment, and whispered her thoughts to the people on both sides. Well, the two guardians on the left and right of the girl were the absolute fun people at the table, Yamauchi Sakura and Yukinoshita Haruno. Only these two people at the table could enjoy the treatment of Yukinoshita confiding her feelings. In fact, Kato Megumi, who was initially evaluated by Yukinoshita as "very good at buying gifts" when they went shopping together last time, was also one of them, but Yukinoshita couldn't find her for a while.

After listening to what Yukinoshita said, Sakura and Haruno looked at each other, their expressions were a little confused. Then there was a smirk.

"Yukinoshita, how come you also think Kyosuke is a good person?" Sakura asked with a smile.

"Only the righteous superman would do this like you~" Haruno also said with a smirk.

Yukinoshita Yukino's face sank, her little mouth shrank, her little face puffed up, and she stopped talking angrily.

I was really covered by the cat's eyes, why did I try to discuss with these two people?

While everyone was discussing, the Tsuruta Masao team in front of them released a new trick. Kamiki Hikaru, who had been following the crowd to get a seat, stood up and began to denounce Hojo Kyosuke for raising online trolls to hype up the Internet, which had caused great harm to the Internet environment. He himself was the biggest victim and then found a screenshot of him being attacked for hyping up the Internet.

There was another uproar on the field, because Kamiki Hikaru was indeed scolded badly at that time.

After Kamiki Hikaru, Tsuruta Masahiro gave a look to Matsumoto Motohiro, indicating that it was your turn to come on stage. But at this moment, the critic who first stood up and sang against Hojo Kyosuke was a little nervous. As a writer for Sankei Shimbun, his judgment of the current situation must be the top priority, not to mention other abilities.

At the moment, his group's battle momentum can be described as a rapid advance, but such a smooth progress made Matsumoto Motohiro feel scared, especially when he looked at Hojo Kyosuke over there and found that the other party did not even change his sitting posture from beginning to end, as if he completely treated them as air. Looking back, the commentator of the Asahi Shimbun, Jiraiya Futami, was looking at him fiercely, as if he would rush over and bite him if he dared to stand up.

After hesitating for a long time, Matsumoto Motohiro pretended not to see Tsuruta Masao's eyes and sat in silence.

Tsuruta Masao frowned, but unfortunately his triangular eyebrows did not change at all. The old man opened his mouth and was about to say something, but was interrupted by a sudden voice.

The person who spoke was Kenzo Chino. He had run to Hojo Kyosuke before and returned to the podium at some point. At this time, his face was completely free of the previous anger, and he smiled very brightly.

Hojo, this guy, is worthy of being called the "handless devil", he is really fierce. No matter how sharp your knife is, no matter how powerful your sword moves are, I will only cut off your hands!

Yes, just like Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sakura thought, Hojo Kyosuke is not a good person at all. He doesn't intend to refute Tsuruta Masao's words at all, because what the old guy said is damn right. This is also the reason why people around him, including Osaka Tsuyoshi and Kinno Kenzo, thought it was difficult for him to win the award at the beginning. Even his own people couldn't find a reason to convince themselves to give him the award, let alone convince others?

But does Hojo Kyosuke need to refute Tsuruta Masao? No, no!

He doesn't need to prove that what Tsuruta Masao said is wrong, he just needs to prove that Tsuruta Masao is wrong. Can a wrong person say the right thing? Obviously not. If the wrong person can say the right thing, doesn't it prove that the right person can also say the wrong thing?

None of the dignitaries in the audience would agree with this truth!

This is the beauty of debate. As long as the debate is correct, it will never be wrong.

Hojo Kyosuke stood up with a faint smile on his face, and his eyes swept over Xisaki who was standing in the left corner of the venue, and the latter immediately waved his hand. Immediately, subordinates such as Onitsuka Eiki, Hata Goro, and Mihashi Ryoma, who were dressed in neat suits, came forward from various places.

These people were carrying a black briefcase in their hands, walked to the bottom of the podium, and opened the box in unison. Hojo Kyosuke's identity as a bad leader is no secret, and there are also people who bring this up to make fun of it in private. At this time, some people thought that Hojo was angry and were shocked. As a result, when the box was opened, it was not filled with weapons.

Hata Goro walked to the table of Tsuruta Masao and others, first lowered his head and handed out a stack of information one by one, then grinned at several people, and his cold eyes swept across everyone's face, and finally fixed on Nishizawa Yang's face. Several people were shocked by the young man's unscrupulous eyes.

What is this?

Masatake Tsuruta lowered his head and saw a yellowed newspaper and a book in his hands. The name of the newspaper was unfamiliar, it was a Tokyo city news newspaper, but the time written on it was more than ten years ago. The book was very familiar, it was a novel he published three years ago.

What is the purpose of that kid Hojo posting these? The old man looked around and found that the two big figures in front of the podium had the same things in their hands.

Is this surrendering to me? Could it be that he learned to write novels from me?

Before the people in the audience could figure out the purpose of the two documents, Kenzo Chino on the stage spoke again, first apologizing to those who didn't get the information and saying that those who didn't receive it didn't need to worry, just in time, our teacher Tsuruta had already enthusiastically borrowed the projector.

"... I'm very sad!"

Kenzo Chino nodded fiercely, saying with a sad expression. Although he wanted to laugh in his heart.

"Please look up and watch the PPT!"

The people who had been waiting eagerly for a long time finally knew what the materials distributed by the men in suits were. Of course, Eiriri and the others' desk Kisaki had already made a special trip to send it there, as well as Hojo Kyosuke's parents-in-law, as well. Such details He doesn't miss it.

The first thing on the projection was the newspaper. It was a small story column. It published a short story. There were not many words. It took just a few minutes for everyone present to read it. Hojo Kyosuke and his team were very thoughtful in their work and were still there. The English version is released to take care of foreign friends.

It was a short mystery novel. Because of the limited length, I can’t tell how good it was, but at least it narrated the general outline of the story, as well as the cases and conspiracies in it.

A reporter in the audience asked directly why he suddenly took out a newspaper from more than ten years ago and asked what the significance of this story was.

"The significance of this newspaper is that the author of this short story is Mr. Nishizawa in the audience."

Kenzo Konno looked sad. Everyone looked along his line of sight and saw that Nishizawa, who was so high-spirited just now, had almost retracted his head between his legs.

Masako Tsuruta wasn't much better either. The old man's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

The author of the novel in the newspaper used a pen name, but Hojo Kyosuke thoughtfully found the remittance slip and other works published by Nishizawao using the same pen name.

Before the reporter could ask further questions, Kenzo Konno started the next stage directly:

"Teacher Nishizawa is indeed the winner of the Mystery Association Award. He has such a great talent even when he was a student! But I have a question."

"Shut up! Stop talking!"

Masako Tsuruta in the audience shouted angrily.

"I have a question!"

Kenno Konno ignored him and even raised his voice:

"Why is it that the novel published by Mr. Nishizawao in the newspaper more than ten years ago, no matter the plot or plot, is exactly the same as the novel published by Mr. Masajo Tsuruta three years ago?!"

Exactly the same!

Wow——

As soon as Kenzo Kono finished speaking, there was a loud noise from the audience.

Those who received the information that Kisaki distributed for free every day lowered their heads and started flipping through the novels in their hands, and the projection screen on the stage also changed into an introduction to Masaho Tsuruta's novel.

Even a blind person can see that without looking at the content, the synopsis of the novel is exactly the abbreviation of Nishizawa's short story from more than ten years ago!

Plagiarism! Complete plagiarism, no dispute, 100% plagiarism!

The most unforgivable crime in literature!

A two-level reversal. Just now, Masako Tsuruta and Nishizawa, who were standing at the highest point of morality and condemned Hojo Kyousuke on behalf of the mystery literature world, instantly fell into the abyss.

Behind them, Eiri and Yukinoshita Yukino opened their mouths wide and looked at the newspapers and novels in their hands. They were so surprised that they couldn't speak.

This... Hojo... this guy is really not a good person, Yukinoshita blinked.

"Wow, wow, you are indeed my chore!"

After being stunned for a while, Yinglili let out a burst of wild laughter, and even took the initiative to ask Ka Shizi for a candy, saying that when you are happy, you need some sweetness!

Over there, Ka Shizi picked up a goblet on the table and scolded:

"No, Yinglili, my brother said that you should drink Coke when you are happy!"

The reporters squatting in the front row all had their mouths open and their eyes full of excitement.

Big news is coming!

Wow! Today was so worth it!

The flashbulb kept buzzing, illuminating Tsuruta Masaho's dark face completely white.

On the stage, Kenzo Konno was smiling and full of joy. He glanced at Hojo Kyousuke and saw that this man still had the smile of having everything under control, a cool and unrestrained demeanor, and he was so handsome that he couldn't be more ordinary.

You damn thing, let me come up here to attract the firepower and enjoy the benefits!

Although it was great to be in the limelight, Kenzo Konno was still angry. Originally, the protagonist should be Hojo Kyosuke. But that guy blamed everything on him on the grounds that "Tsuruda Masako and Nishizawao-sensei are seniors to me, and it would be disrespectful for me to do this."

Kenzo Konno could see clearly what respect meant. Kyousuke Hojo was clearly afraid of leaving a arrogant image in the eyes of the seniors in the literary world who were attending the meeting, so he hid behind the scenes.

This old Yinbi!

He kept scolding in his heart, but it didn't stop Kenzo Konno from saying with a smile on his face:

“I don’t know whether Mr. Nishizawao took a time machine and came more than ten years later and plagiarized the works of his mentor Mr. Masaho Tsuruta, or whether Mr. Masaho Tsuruta was already guiding Mr. Nishizawa’s writing more than ten years ago and was plagiarized. works.”

As soon as these words came out, the guests who were in shock burst out laughing. On the other hand, Masako Tsuruta over there was like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw. He immediately lowered his head and whispered to Nishizawa:

"Hurry up and admit it. I've been coaching you since you were in high school. You copied that novel from me."

After finishing speaking, seeing his good disciple still bowing his head and remaining silent, the old man with triangular eyebrows couldn't help but said angrily:

"You guys don't think I've done something bad, can you? Now it's up to you to admit it is the best choice, you should understand!"

If a student copies the teacher's work, there are many excuses, and the teacher can stand up and forgive, and it can be resolved with a little more effort. But once it is confirmed that as a teacher, he has appropriated students' academic achievements, or in other words, directly appropriated students' works, it will be impossible for either master or disciple!

Hearing this, Nishizawa lowered his head even lower. How could he not understand this truth!

But...

He turned his head quietly and looked to the right, just in time to see the handsome Hojo Kyosuke, and saw the pair of dark eyes that seemed to be smiling.

Nishizawa felt his heart tighten suddenly, as if it was being tightly grasped in someone's hand.

Yes, Hojo Kyosuke knew that he had been waiting for him to jump out from the beginning. He wanted to step on him to climb higher, and he also wanted to step on him and eat him as a snack and turn him into nutrients...

This guy, is he really a high school student?

He was proud before. Even if he was talented, how could a high school student fight him. Now he is afraid, why does every step he takes fall into the trap of that high school student. (End of this chapter)
