Chapter 185: Locking Down a Small Dark Room

The editor-in-chief Machida Enoko didn't lie, Kasumigaoka Shiu sighed in her heart after following her into the banquet hall arranged separately by Fusugawa Bunko.

The meeting hall is very spacious, with food and drinks on both sides. There are many high-end dishes, including spur meat, Kobe steak, Australian lobster, deep-sea caviar... There are also some delicious snacks and desserts, covering all directions.

There are not many people in the hall, most of them are standing in twos and threes, but their faces are full of sorrow and solemnity. Wait, Kasumigaoka Shiyu seems to have discovered a problem, his face is full of sorrow and solemnity? Why can I get a tragic expression when attending an exchange banquet?

She turned her head: "Yuanzi, the expressions of these people don't seem quite right..."

"Everyone is like this..." Machida Enzi shrugged and said, "Just get used to it."

Shiyu Kasumigaoka:!!!∑（Дノ）ノ

Habit, get used to what?

"Yuanzi..." Kasumigaoka Shiyu stopped: "Tell me. What is going on?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Machida Enzi had already stepped forward, put her hands on her shoulders and said: "Shiyu, you're here, you should eat something good, or drink some drinks to relieve stress..."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu's heart tightened: "Why should I relieve my stress?"

"Humans, there is always pressure. Do you want coffee or tea?" Machida Enzi asked.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "Why not wine?"

"Ugh, maybe it's because we don't provide any alcoholic drinks here!" How can I finish writing when I'm drunk?

The voices of the two people talking attracted the attention of people in the hall. Someone recognized Machida Enzi, so complex eyes such as sympathy, empathy, and successors all fell on Kasumigaoka Shiu.

Of course, there are also some people who gloat about others' misfortunes, or who just eat and drink without caring about others. For such people, everyone in the hall expresses... understanding.

"He's new!"

"Newcomers are very observant. When I first entered this hall, I only focused on eating delicious food until I entered there..." The speaker shuddered.

"Stop talking!" The guy who was eating and drinking also stopped: "Don't mention those three words, I beg you."

These people did not avoid suspicion and spoke at a normal volume, so that Kasumigaoka Shiyu heard the conversation clearly.

"Yuanzi!" Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu said coldly.

"Haha..." Machida Enzi said haha: "Shiyu, look, what do you want to eat, I will help you get it!"

The uneasiness in Kasumigaoka Shiyu's heart grew more and more: "Don't talk about other things, let's talk about what is going on first?"

At this moment, one of the people with tragic faces waved to Kasumigaoka Shiyu and said, "That female high school student, you haven't heard of the open secrets in the industry, have you?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu was confused: "Little black room?"

"Don't mention these three words, wuwu, I won't delay the manuscript anymore, let me go back and finish it myself, okay?" As soon as he mentioned it, someone couldn't bear it and almost cried.

Shiyu Kasumigaoka:!!!∑（Дノ）ノ

Is this really true?

She turned around and saw that Machida Enko had already gone to the side to eat and drink.

"Yuanzi, it's illegal for you to do this..." Kasumigaoka Shiyu tried to resist.

Machida Enzi ate caviar and ordered a certain tragic author. The man said: "It's useless. When I signed the contract, was there a clause that when the library feels that the author's level is not up to standard, the library has the responsibility to The author conducts three days of individual tutoring, and the author is obliged to accept it.”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "(◎_◎;) This, how is it possible to distinguish this kind of thing clearly!"

"The level certification of Immortal River depends on your progress in completing the manuscript."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "How is it possible? I didn't... before?"

"You used to be transparent, right?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu nodded with an ugly expression.

"Everyone present here has a minimum sales volume of more than 30W per copy."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..." Immortal River is crazy, what kind of library wouldn't support such an author and shut him down in a small black room? Wait, that is to say, the small black room still requires the explosive level of treatment?

"No, no, it's only been three days. Aren't you afraid that the manuscript you wrote like this will collapse?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt that she had found the key point.

All the authors showed expressions as if newcomers would think so: "This is also an incredible mystery in the industry. Articles produced by small black rooms will not collapse!"

Machida Yuanzi was eating shrimp dumplings on the side and echoed: "Shiyu, Sister Yuanzi will not harm you."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

Since it won't collapse, why are you so tragic?

"Are you asking, if it won't collapse, then why are we so tragic?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

What's going on with these people?

Although he was confused, he nodded.

"Haha~!" The authors present all looked frightened: "This kind of thing is best understood by newcomers themselves."

"Currenting a manuscript in a dark room is like drinking water and knowing whether it is warm or cold!"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

Hey, hey, please speak clearly!

"Okay, don't scare the little Shiyu under me. When you come out of the small dark room one by one, you all look like a dragon, a tiger, a tiger, and a high-spirited person." Machida Enoko came over with a plate of caviar. : "This is the first time Shiyu has entered a small dark room. What if she gets scared?"

Looking at the caviar handed to him, Kasumigaoka Shiyu raised his eyelids: "Old woman, don't think that a pile of caviar is enough, you lied to me!"

"Is there any?" Machida Enzi looked confused.

"There is a rumor that the little black room is a competitor. Who said this?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked, holding her hands.

Machida Enzi pointed at the ceiling with a spoon and said: "So, we don't call it a small dark room, but a manuscript room."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

She felt that she had underestimated Yuanzi. This shameless and reasonable look really looked like a certain guy. When she thought of that guy, Kasumigaoka Shiyu thought, why didn't that guy choke Yuanzi to death just now?

"I want to go back!" Kasumigaoka Shiyu turned around.

Machida Enzi shrugged: "Xiao Shiyu, you are not the only one who wants to go back, but they have not taken action. Do you know why?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu stopped: "Because after entering the banquet hall, you can't get out again?"

"Shiu Yu is indeed very smart." Machida Enzi nodded.

"Illegal detention!"

"No, yes, legal tutoring!" Machida Enzi replied.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

"That newcomer, accept your fate. In fact, the small dark room is not bad. At the very least, it can ensure that our manuscript is handed over on time."

"Yes, once you get used to it, you will find that a small dark room is nothing." The speaker shook his legs.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

You are already so scared that you are shaking your legs, and you still say you are not afraid. Who are you lying to?

"Well, no matter what, the necessary materials must be collected."

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and at the same time, they said: "The little dark room is working on the manuscript, there is no need to collect materials."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "(◎_◎;)"

So, what is the magic power of the little dark room?

He turned around again and glared at a certain editor who was still tasting the food.

Machida Enko, please don’t let her find the opportunity to come back for revenge!

"Ah!" He took a big bite of the caviar sent by Machida Enko, but it couldn't compare to that bastard's bento.

So, she was tricked into coming in by such a "delicious meal"?

Those tragic people said one after another: "Eat, eat more. When I mention the small black room in the future, I won't even be in the mood to eat delicious food."

"Hey!" Kasumigaoka Shiyu sighed, feeling sad for these guys, and said to himself: "That's because you haven't tasted real food!"

Then I thought - since I'm not even in the mood to eat delicious food, why on earth would these guys be deceived a second time? Even more times!
