Chapter 36

"Komachi, why do you sound like a housekeeper?"

Hikigaya Hachiman complained, then continued, "There was a small accident, so I can only go back in the afternoon. Eat your lunch box by yourself."

Kara Nayuta stood aside, silently waiting for the two to finish their phone call.

"Senior, who are you talking to here?"

She came closer.

"Komachi, my sister."

He replied.

"Oh, it turns out to be your sister."

Kara Nayuta breathed a sigh of relief.

I saw the doting expression on the senior's face just now, and I thought it was his girlfriend or something. If that's the case, it would be troublesome!

"Where are we going to go next? It will probably take a while to finish the work there."

Hikigaya Hachiman thought that he couldn't waste time aimlessly on the street, so he asked.

"Well... where do you want to go, senior?"

Kara Nayuta hesitated a little.

"You're here again. I hope you can be more assertive, Honda."

He sighed.

"Well, I see, senior, let's go to those doujinshi bookstores?"

Kara Nayuta suddenly thought.

"Okay."

He nodded.

Although he was considered, at least he took the initiative to bring it up.

The two took the train and came to a famous doujinshi store nearby.

"Wow, it's worthy of being Tokyo. It feels completely different from Chiba."

Entering the beautifully decorated store, looking at the various doujinshi and peripheral products in the store, Karina Nayuta made a surprised sound like a countryman entering the city for the first time.

Wandering around the bookstore for a long time, Karina Nayuta felt that her eyes were opened, especially those doujinshi. Although she didn't look at the contents in detail, the covers of some doujinshi were enough to make her feel very exciting.

After walking around the store, feeling that the clerk had shown a bad expression, Hikigaya Hachiman thought about it and bought some works.

"Senior, you bought these back, didn't you do it for..."

Leaving the bookstore, Karina Yuta asked with her hands behind her back and a blushing face.

Hikigaya Hachiman looked down at the author of the doujinshi, then shook his head righteously and said, "You misunderstood. It's just because this teacher named Kashiwagi Eri helped me, so I chose to support her."

Look at my sincere eyes!

Unfortunately, Karina Yuta only saw a pair of dead fish eyes that affected his handsomeness.

"Senior, there is really no need to lie about this kind of thing."

Karina Yuta recognized his starting point.

"But it's normal for boys to have desires in that aspect. Senior, don't be shy. I can understand."

"I said it's not!"

The two went out for a walk again and bought snacks.

'Is this a date? '

Karina Yuta secretly looked at his face, her eyes a little blurred.

At this moment, Hikigaya Hachiman's cell phone finally rang.

57 Rain cannot extinguish passion

Back to the coffee shop, Machida Sonoko has brought a contract.

"Um, does the guardian have to sign it?"

Kari Nayuta looked a little embarrassed.

Machida Sonoko understood why the other party showed such an expression. A lot of things have been explained in that volume of light novel.

"In principle, it is like this, but in reality..."

She hesitated, and the rest was some things that were inconvenient to say.

"Don't worry, Miss Sonoko can solve it."

Hikigaya Hachiman said.

Because he used the same method before to avoid some restrictions, of course it is not completely safe, and if someone reports it, it will still have an impact.

But as an insider, there is no conflict of interest, so it is meaningless to do such a thing.

"I understand."

Kari Nayuta understood and signed the contract.

After confirmation, the contract returned to Machida Sonoko's hands.

"Well, the title of the work is Silver Season, and the pen name is Karina Yuta... right?"

She confirmed again.

"Yes."

The silver-haired girl smiled and nodded.

Next, Machida Sonoko also exchanged contact information with Kanayuta for future work contacts.

On the train back home, Kanayuta asked.

"Senior, when will the first volume be released?"

"If it is your "Silver Season", it should be promoted for a while. In order to build momentum, more preparations must be made."

Hikigaya Hachiman is very clear about this.

Because it did not pass the Rookie Award, the attention itself is less, and it needs to be compensated by publicity. In addition, the quality of the work itself will also make the library pay more attention to it. With the experience of Senjumura Sei's debut sales last time, this time may cause a bigger sensation.

"My heart is beating so fast..."

Kara Nayuta covered her chest, feeling very nervous.

She was not stupid. She had realized from the attitudes of the two that it might be another turning point in her life.

Hikigaya Hachiman no longer had to worry about what happened after that.

As an editor with rich life experience, Miss Sonoko would help Kara Nayuta solve many troubles, and even provide meticulous care. After all, if such an excellent talent was let go, it would be too late to regret.

He should be more concerned about the sales of the sixth volume of "Summer Return" tomorrow.

According to Miss Sonoko's thinking, the enthusiasm of readers was indeed released. It was also the first time that he saw so many people discussing the plot before the sale, instead of calling his wife all day long.

One night passed.

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at the sky outside the window. The dark clouds gradually filled up, and it was obvious that it was about to rain.

"It's really bad weather."

He said leisurely.

In just ten minutes, the drizzle of raindrops fell from the sky.

But such rain alone could not extinguish the enthusiasm of some loyal fans. They would squat in front of the bookstore with umbrellas, wanting to buy the sixth volume of "Summer Return" as soon as possible.

"No one should compete with me today, right? I will definitely see Chao appear again in this volume, right?"

When a young fan came to the door of the bookstore with a secret joy in his heart, he was dumbfounded.

There were a lot of people who also came with umbrellas, and some even came without umbrellas.

"These guys, do they have to roll up their sleeves even when buying books? How can they be cultivated!"

He was about to be furious.

The bookstore owner was also confused. Why did so many people come to buy in the rain?

Do all the fans of this person like it so much?

He lowered his head and glanced at the light novel called "Summer Return".

...

Today is Monday. If she was in school, Eriri might arrange for the housekeeper to buy a book for her, but since it was summer vacation, she still went to the bookstore in person.

Because doing so would make her feel more rewarding, and she could get the novel earlier.

As a result, she ran into the rain unexpectedly, so she had to buy an umbrella on the way and then went to the bookstore.

This is the largest bookstore near her home, and it is also the most well-known, so she encountered the same situation. Even in the heavy rain, there are still many people waiting.

"It's really anxious."

Eri was anxious, holding an umbrella, and waited in the heavy rain for an unknown period of time before finally buying the sixth volume of "Summer Returns".

After getting it, she hurried back home.

"Eri, about the comic exhibition..."

Her mother, Sayuri Sawamura, saw her coming back and was about to greet her.

"Let's talk about it later."

Eri went upstairs without looking back.

"This child is still so impatient."

Sayuri Sawamura pouted.

Closing the bedroom door, Eriri slowly turned the pages of the book, her eyes shining.

The question that has been lingering in my heart for three months is about to be revealed!

…

"Hey, Emily! You are too obsessed! Isn't it raining outside? Why are you in such a hurry to go out? Your clothes will get dirty easily."

Elmi couldn't help but speak.

Yamada Fairy was wearing a slightly different Lolita outfit and was changing her shoes.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I have a wardrobe full of them, so I'm not afraid of getting dirty... As for obsession, how can that be possible! Is that guy's novel so good? I just support the sales of his works as a... well, friend, yes, friend, so that Hikigaya won't say that I am not loyal enough!"

Yamada Fairy said to herself.

"Friend? Haha."

Elmi's expression was a little contemptuous.

"If you just like the work, it's fine, but I'm afraid it's not just that."

She muttered softly.

"Hmm? Did you say anything?"

Yamada Fairy suddenly turned around and asked in confusion.

"Nothing."

Elmi denied.

"Then I'll go out."

After saying that, Yamada Fairy held an umbrella and prepared to rush into the rain.

"By the way, don't forget to buy me a copy. I've read all the previous ones."
