Depressed writers, the whole network begs you to stop writing

Chapter 12 "Four Lies" attracted editor-in-chief Kamisaka Raku

The paper collection period in April every year is the busiest time for major libraries.

Dengeki Bunko is no exception.

Especially this year, the number of entries for the Dengeki Novel Awards exceeded 10,000.

This makes all departments of Dengeki Bunko very busy.

"The original manuscript and entry materials for "Chronicles of Another World" should be handed over to Editor-in-Chief Kagurazaka."

""The Brave's Journey to Another World" is placed in the alternative second category."

"Also, don't forget to make the coffee for Editor Suzuki!"

The orders made the ordinary clerks feel dizzy, but they could only answer them one after another and left in a hurry.

The clerks are busy, and the review editors are naturally not relaxed either.

For them, reviewing newcomers' manuscripts is like panning for gold in a cesspool, a physical and mental torture.

In the review room, every editor is quickly reading the manuscript at hand.

Editor Yasuda is no exception.

When he saw the title of the last manuscript, "Because the manuscript was rejected, the editor was reincarnated as a succubus in another world," his face darkened.

Although he was a little dissatisfied, he still suppressed his anger and quickly started reading.

Within three minutes, he threw the manuscript aside and put an "×" mark on the review form.

"Relying on defense——"

He muttered: "If I let him finish the manuscript, I might as well go to another world and become a succubus!"

After finishing all this, he lay back and leaned on the office chair, looking exhausted.

However, he didn't have time to rest.

"Sorry, Editor Yasuda, this is the last batch of manuscripts today!"

The company clerk placed another pile of manuscripts in front of him.

Hearing the clerk's voice, Yasuda quickly stood up and said softly:

"Okay, thank you. By the way, help me forward these manuscripts and forms to Editor-in-Chief Kamisaka Raku."

He then turned his attention to the final batch of manuscripts.

Yasuda picked up the first book, which showed the name of the first manuscript - "Your Lie in April".

Yasuda frowned: "Although it happens to be April now, the type doesn't seem to fit the style of our library."

However, let’s take a look first.

He quickly turned to the first page of the manuscript:

"Arima Kousei gave up playing, and all his achievements so far have been in vain."

When Yasuda saw the first sentence at the beginning, he felt curious.

Why did Kousei Arima give up playing? What has he achieved before?

"In the fall when I was 11 years old, I could no longer play the piano."

"The world has become bleak in my eyes."

"It's like a musical score, like a black and white key."

...

"The moment I met her, my life changed. Everything I saw, heard, felt, and experienced was rendered colorfully."

"The world begins to shine."

...

"It's actually a healing story?"

"The beginning is well written, but I don't know how it will continue."

Yasuda decided to look behind again.

Three hours later.

Yasuda carefully put down the manuscript in his hand for fear of getting it wrinkled.

"Kannahara Yushin..."

Yasuda looked at the pen name filled in on the entry form and couldn't help but read it out.

This story is the most healing and touching story he has ever seen!

At this time, his heart was filled with shock, and at the same time he felt a sense of loss that was still lingering.

Although there were still a large number of manuscripts that had not been reviewed, he unconsciously dialed the number of editor-in-chief Raku Kamisaka.

...

The next day, there was a plenary meeting of library editors.

""Your Lie in April", healing style? Editor-in-chief Raku Kamisaka recommends this novel?"

Editor-in-Chief Matsutomo Suzuki compiled the list of recommended books.

However, what he didn't expect was to get such an answer from editor-in-chief Raku Kamisaka.

He frowned.

We mainly recommend healing light novels in the library that focuses on fighting and passion.

This made him think Kamisaka Raku was a little crazy!

"Our library has never had a healing light novel win an award, right?"

"Are you really going to give up the favorite "Sword War" and focus on this healing novel?"

Kamisaka Raku Iris said firmly:

"Although the light novel "Your Lie in April" is only half completed, its level of performance is no less than any previous popular work! The most important thing is that it is very suitable for me!"

Deputy Editor-in-Chief Kasu Ryohito shook his head:

"The level of "Your Lie in April" is indeed good, but its genre is somewhat deviated from our library. It will only be a waste of your opportunity to use it."

Raku Kamisaka shook his head and said, "I believe in "Kun Hush" and Mr. Kanbara, please forgive me for my willfulness."

She played "Jun Hush" three times last night. It was so appetizing!

He must help Mr. Kanbaru publish this work!

Suzuki Tomatsu was also a little helpless: "Since you insist, let's decide like this."

...

Private Toyozaki School, Grade 3 Class C.

Even though it was class time, the voluptuous black-haired girl kept looking out the window.

But the teacher in class said nothing.

For the school's number one top student, the classroom teacher has become accustomed to her state.

It's common to be in a daze and sleep, but every time I take an exam, I get the first place in the entire school year.

Therefore, as long as her grades can be maintained, there is nothing they can say.

The April sunshine was very mild, and the wind outside the window rustled the green magnolias.

The top student girl held her chin in her hands and looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside.

But his thoughts turned to someone involuntarily:

"Today seems to be the day the selection list for the Dengeki Novel Awards is announced."

"I wonder if Kanbaru-kun can be selected..."

She opened LINE on her phone and looked at the person whose avatar had always been a big white cat. She couldn't help but complain about his avatar again:

"This cat is so fat. Could it be that he is a true reflection of Kanbaru-kun?" the girl smiled.

Thinking of this, she also changed her avatar to a cute black cat.

After finishing all this, she typed:

"Kamihara-kun, today is the day when the selection is announced."

"It doesn't matter if you're not selected. Senior will comfort you, hehehe!"

The girl waited for a long time, but the message remained unread.

She sighed.

Although I am a little worried, Kanbara-kun is probably still in class...

...

Chiba, Sobu Municipal High School.

Class F, second grade, is taking a cooking internship class.

The girls were assigned to bake cookies, while the boys were assigned to make sashimi.

Girls group——

"Xiao Cai, you baked very well."

"Looks delicious-"

Tuanzi looked at the freshly baked cookies with a look of wonder on his face.

"Thanks."

"Hey, I overcooked it..." Tuanzi felt a little ashamed.

Tuanzi asked curiously: "Xiao Cai, what do you plan to do with these cookies, and who do you want to give them to?"

"Well, I've already decided who I want to send it to."

Caijia picked out a few more beautiful cookies and put them into the bag.

"Really?"

"I really want to know who you plan to give it to. I care so much. Is it Hikigaya?"

Tuanzi leaned towards Ayaka and asked.

"No, no, I want to give it to Nanahara-san as a thank you gift for the last puff game."
