Hiroto Akihara already knew the result, so he was not surprised.

He just asked: "How many second-hand bookstores are there in total now?"

"About more than 300."

Hiroto Akihara calculated in his mind, and found that compared with the scale of his previous life, the market still has a lot of room.

"President Nishijima, do you have any comments on the second-hand bookstore proposal?" Akihara Yuto asked with a smile.

Sota Nishijima waved his hand, expressing that he had no objection.

The momentum of the second-hand bookstore is hot, anyone can see it.

Moreover, if it is established in the form of franchising + direct marketing, it will not cause too much burden on funds.

However, he still has some doubts about whether he can establish a complete sales channel.

Before seeing the results, he was unwilling to draw conclusions easily.

Seeing that the other party no longer objected, Akihara Yuto said again: "Since it is feasible, then issue a related plan to me later."

"Yes", Sota Nishijima said he knew.

He plans to send people to various places to take a look this week, first to 12 cities with a population of over one million.

Although it is not sure whether it can be done, but since it is decided to do it, it is natural to do the best.

He handed over another document,

"Teacher Akihara, this is the sales statistics of last week's trial reading session of "Personal Experience"."

Hiroto Akihara took it, looked it over carefully, and found that "Personal Experience" sold 2 copies on the statistical table.

Although it did not reach 3 copies, it still reached a very high level.

But why can it sell so much?

After he was puzzled, Sota Nishijima said seriously: "Mr. Akihara, the managers of various bookstores in Tokyo said that your works have the lowest return rate, so they are willing to buy more."

After a pause, his expression softened: "They seem to know about the two distributors of Dongfan, so many store managers told me that they are willing to take the initiative to recommend books to other bookstore managers for you. .”

Hearing this answer, Akihara Hiroto didn't know what to say for a while.

He wasn't surprised that these bookstore managers would know about it. After all, the distributor had a lot of employees, so there were a lot of people.

It's just the actions of these bookstore managers that surprised him.

In the trial reading session of "Snow Country", many people expressed that they did not accept this work. As a result, after learning that the dealer had reduced the order, they bought "Personal Experience" on their own initiative.

You know, in the current downturn of bookstores, these bookstores themselves are on the cliff.

This moved him a little bit.

He was silent for a while, then squeezed out a smile and said, "Help me thank the store managers of those bookstores."

"Understood," Sota Nishijima also laughed.

After a brief chat, Akihara Hiroto left the office.

As he walked, he pondered in his heart.

Can I help these bookstore owners without harming my own interests?

He thought for a while, and finally decided to talk to Sota Nishijima next time to give more discounts to these bosses who support him.

After leaving the publishing house, he returned home in a special car.

As soon as he got home, he received a call from the Soma Police Department of the Metropolitan Police Department.

The other party said excitedly: "Mr. Akihara, the Kanagawa serial murder case has made great progress!"

"Huge progress?" Hiroto Akihara asked in surprise, "Did you catch the murderer?"

Soma Police Department hesitated for a moment, and said, "Sorry, we just found out who the murderer is, and the other party is still at large."

Hearing this sentence, Akihara Hiroto almost couldn't help calling the other party an idiot.

Even though the prisoner had been found, he let him run away!No wonder people in the previous life called the Neon Metropolitan Police Department a waste every day!

He thought for a while, and then asked, "How long does it take to catch the murderer?"

The Soma Police Department added: "The Metropolitan Police Department and Kanagawa have jointly dispatched more than 2000 police officers, and it is expected that the case will be arrested in a short time!"

But Hiroto Akihara was a little skeptical about this answer.

There was a case in the previous life. In 2007, a murderer named Ichihashi Tatsuya killed his foreign English teacher, and then fled.

This incident caused a sensation throughout Tokyo. The police claimed that 10 police officers had been invested, but it took two full years to arrest the other party.

So he was worried, this time he won't let the other party escape for so long again!

"Mr. Akihara, thank you this time!"

The Soma Police Department said gratefully: "This time you can find the criminal because you have adjusted your psychological portrait, and the murderer is a middle-aged man with a wife and a career.

Before that, none of us thought that he would be the murderer in this case. "

For his thanks, Hiroto Akihara accepted it frankly, and then asked: "You didn't reveal that I modified the psychological portrait, right?"

"Of course, our confidentiality measures are very good."

Hearing this answer, Akihara Hiroto breathed a sigh of relief.

If the other party knows about this and wants to assassinate him again, it will be troublesome!

But for myself, this is indeed good news!

If the murderer can be identified, then the movie "Memories of Murder" can be released as soon as possible without considering the social impact!

[Chapter 298.297 coming soon]

Prior to this, due to consideration of the social impact of serial murders, the filming of the film "Memories of Murder" was once at a deadlock.

After learning that it could not be released immediately, many actors in the crew became a lot more depressed.

Fortunately, as a director, Takuto Utsumi has rich experience, and he took part in Hiroto Akihara's follow-up works as a big cake, which made the blood of these actors aroused.

After bumps and bumps, the movie didn't finish until the end of August, nearly one-third longer than previously estimated.
