I Won't Be a Loser

"But she likes you?"

"Ah."

He didn't pay much attention to the things in the school. Futaba Rio didn't know much about the girl named Sawamura, but it could be seen that the identity of the other party should not be very ordinary. There will be such a dazzling blonde.

At the bottom of her heart, she couldn't figure out the relationship between the sage and that girl. She lowered her head, silently picked up the octopus intestines, and put them into her mouth.

The sage, who had finished his lunch, stood up, walked to the window of the laboratory, looked at the scenery outside the window, raised his head again, and looked at the sky above his head. It was clear and bright, and the dazzling light shone on the blue sky.

"Soon, it's going to get hotter and hotter."

"Ah."

"Install an air conditioner in your lab without applying for a little funding from the school?"

Rio Futaba raised her head, glanced at the sage standing in front of the window, and didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment. After looking at the young man's back for a while, she was too lazy to speak, and used silence as her answer.

He also knew that what he said was an improbable thing. Looking at the clear sky above his head, and the silent answer in the laboratory behind him, the sage also raised the corner of his mouth silently, waiting for the arrival of the warm summer——

It was probably the promotion of the Kaiying Club, which had some effect. Only a week after the signing event, Fuzeoka Mari called him, saying that the sales volume has been gradually increasing in the recent period. The original volume of 6000 volumes can no longer satisfy the market, and they are being reprinted in a hurry. This time, there will be about [-] volumes, and it is no longer limited to the Tokyo area, and will gradually be sold to other bookstores across the country .

"Is [-] copies too much, can it really be sold?"

Hearing the sudden printing of [-] copies, the sage didn't have any real feeling in his heart, and he didn't feel too much joy. Instead, he asked Mari Fuzeoka, the sales volume on the first day of the previous period, and the sales volume on the signing day. It was so bleak that he really couldn't raise his self-confidence.

"Didn't you watch TV?"

"television?"

"There was a famous host who suddenly talked about your work on a variety show, and then it became fermented on the Internet. Now many people are discussing about your work."

"Famous backers?"

"It's the female costume artist named Songzi, isn't he very famous?"

Mari Fuzeoka handled the documents in his hand casually, and casually asked the sage about his relationship with Ms. Matsuko, which made the sage confused.

"I don't know. Although I know there is such a host, it really has nothing to do with him. Did he talk about me on the show?"

I know, I know there is such a host who wears women's clothing. Xianren once watched the program hosted by the other party occasionally in the middle of the night, but he has never participated in any program, and he has never met the other party. The other party suddenly recommended himself. His works also puzzled the sages.

"Yes, on the way of the show, I suddenly talked about your work, but it was only mentioned, and there was no in-depth discussion, but it still aroused the interest of many people."

"That's it."

After roughly understanding what happened, the sage who knew that his sales had skyrocketed because of this, could only thank that Ms. Songzi from the bottom of his heart, and had no other extra thoughts.

"So, [-] extra copies were printed?"

"For the time being, [-] copies will be printed first, and there may be more printings. That Songzi is now a top idol group second only to Johnny in popularity, and its appeal should not be much worse. You really don't know him?"

"do not know."

"Forget it, let's do it for now. The royalties from printing will continue to be transferred to the previous account later."

"Ah."

He Fuzeoka Mari ended the phone call, and the sage who was still at school also showed a confused expression. He didn't know what was going on. He didn't even have a TV, so naturally he wouldn't know about that pine nut, who said in the program own what.

"Go back and check it online to see what it said."

The Season of Cherry Blossoms: 184. I feel extremely sorry

Looking back, I entered my own book title in the browser, but there were very few search results, and even fewer entries related to pine nuts. It just let the sage understand what happened, but it was not even a program. No fragments were found.

"The response was not as great as expected."

I couldn't see many sages whose names appeared. Looking at the search results, I looked at them one by one, and then clicked 'x' one by one. The expressions on their faces were also lacklustre.

I originally thought about preparing dinner by myself in the evening, but when the doorbell rang, I saw the moment that appeared in front of me, and walked directly into my house, extinguished the fire that he had just turned on, and dragged him to Qingpu's house. The wise man also extinguished his own thoughts about preparing dinner.

Qing Puwu, who got off work, heard that the sage was preparing to prepare dinner by herself, so she couldn't help but cast her eyes on the sage, and stared at the sage carefully for a while.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's just that I don't quite understand it, and I'm not an outsider. Since I have to prepare dinner every night, there is no difference between one more person and one less person. Could it be that the dishes I prepared don't suit your taste?"

"Although the taste of the cuisine in Gifu is slightly different from that in Tokyo, I don't pay much attention to this aspect. It's just that I suddenly want to cook by myself."

"The burnout period?"

Qingpu Wu stared at the sage, nodded as if she understood.

"Ok?"

"Isn't there a period of time in the relationship between men and women, when you feel tired of the person you are dating? Is that right?"

Sitting in the room, Setsuna slowly straightened his body, and his eyes gradually turned towards the sage. The sage who was talking with Qingpu Wu also noticed the gaze coming towards him from the living room, and looked back at Setsuna. With eyes and a smile, he looked at Kiyoura Mai in front of him again, and sighed.

"Nothing, it's not because of emotional matters, I feel tired of such things, but because the sales of my works recently are a little bit unsatisfactory, so I feel a little confused."

I didn't even think about talking about it with anyone, but Qingpu Wu misunderstood it as a 'tired period'. If I don't explain it well, I'm afraid it will really lead to some misunderstanding, so there is no need for it.

"Sales... what happened?"

Qingpu Wu also didn't ask the sage about the sales volume, and she didn't know much about it. Now she suddenly heard the answer that the sage was confused because of the sales volume, and she couldn't help but care about it.

"The initial sales volume was not very high. From the day it was released to the present, it has only sold thousands of copies. It makes me feel that I am not very suitable for this industry."

She didn't quite understand, and Qingpu Wu didn't know the sales standards of this industry at all. She blinked and looked at the sage who was booing and sighing in front of her, and she fully understood how much it took to meet the sage's expectations.

"The sales of thousands of copies should be quite a lot, right?"

"Normally speaking, it's really not a small number. Generally speaking, it's like a celebrity in a niche circle. The sales of personal biographies published are probably only a few thousand copies."

Hearing Qingpu Wu's words, the sage also regained his spirit a little bit, and thought of the other newcomer writers he knew, like some people whose sales volume was relatively poor, and it is not impossible that they only sold hundreds of copies.

"That......"

"It's because I am so ambitious, and I can barely pass it."

"It's only your first book now, and it will definitely get better and better in the future."

Qingpu Wu, who didn't know the situation, glanced at her daughter, and could only use her own way to comfort the boy in front of her a little.

"At least, among your peers, being able to do this is already very impressive, isn't it?"

Compared with his peers, he is already very powerful, but Xianren himself is not a pure young man. Facing Qingpu Wu who comforts him, he can only smile slightly, and put this topic aside, and talk with a smile on his face. It's about dinner.

The moment I sat on the sofa, looking at the back of the sage, I couldn't help but fell into deep thought, wondering if I could help the sage...

"You and I, even if we spend all the living expenses, we can't buy many books, right?"

In the early morning, while waiting for Kiyoura Setsuna to get up and go out, Xiyuanji World, and Setsuna walked to school, and learned about last night's events from Setsuna's mouth, knowing that when the sage was troubled by the sales of his works , Xiyuan Temple World also thought about it.

I thought about using the living expenses of myself and Setsuna to help buy the works of the sages, but I also thought that the living expenses and savings of the two were actually only about 30 to [-] yen, even if I spent all of them, I could only buy them. Dozens of books, for a sage, can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket.

"Besides, the sage will definitely be angry if he finds out about it. With his character, it is impossible for him to be happy when he knows that we have done such a thing."

"Promote it in the school, can you?"

What Xiyuan Temple World said about using living expenses to buy the works of sages, Setsuna also felt that it was meaningless at all, and the sages would definitely criticize them if they knew about it. She thought about it and wanted to try it in her school and classes. Promote it a little bit.

"Are you promoting it in the class? It seems that there is no problem. Have you brought the works of the sages with you?"

"No, it's at home."

"That's it, I didn't bring it with me either. If I did, I could take it out and look through it casually when get out of class was over. Hikaru Kuroda would definitely be curious. At that time, I could bring up the topic. , Gradually recommended to her."

"........Um."

Following the words of Xiyuanji World, Su Mo recalled Kuroda Hikaru's usual performance, and then thought about the other party's character, it seemed that it was indeed a feasible solution.

"Then...the others?"

"Let's use the author is your boyfriend as a topic, and see if it can arouse their interest. Girls may be interested in it, but boys may not be interested."

"......"

After listening to Xiyuan Temple World's words, a trace of hesitation appeared on Setsu's face.

"Would it bother the sage?"

"troubled?"

Not knowing what would trouble the sage, the world of Xiyuan Temple looked hesitant at the moment, but also understood his friend, and his personality was a bit introverted.

"Then, when the time comes, leave it to me?"

"world?"

"When the time comes, I'll just raise the topic, and you'll just be the 'author's girlfriend'."

Facing the eyes of Xiyuan Temple World, Ji Mo's mood suddenly became complicated, she bit her lip, and her eyes gradually became firmer.

"No, it's better... I'll do it."

Sitting in the seat, suddenly his nose itched, the sage lowered his head, and suddenly sneezed, he didn't know who was thinking about himself, raised his head, and looked at the classroom where many people were seated, he sat in his seat on, lost in thought.

"After communicating with the editor, he told me that it's okay to be a bit more obscure. I've looked at your work, and I can think about how to add it to the plot tonight."

Umetaro Nozaki came to the classroom, sat down, looked at the boy at the desk in front of him, reached out and tapped the sage on the back lightly, after seeing the sage's eyes looking at him, he was as usual with no expression on his face Expressionless, he told the wise man the result of his discussion with his editor.

Originally, it was just a casual mention, and I never thought that Nozaki Umetaro would really discuss with his editor. After thinking so seriously, he agreed to help recommend his works. Sage was also surprised, and thanked Nozaki Umetaro.

"No, nothing, do you have time tonight?"

"Uh...it's nothing important, you..."

"Help me paint the picture, if I am alone, it seems a little bit overwhelmed."

Seeing Nozaki Umetaro's calm expression, Sage stared at him for a while, then fell silent for a moment, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, thinking that Nozaki Umetaro was very interesting.

"Yes, however, but only tonight."

"make a deal."

For the time being, the sage didn't know what he had to do. When he returned to the apartment, he just stared at his computer in a daze. Helping Nozaki Umetaro paint pictures together was a kind of pastime, and he didn't really object to it. He smiled Just agreed.

Seeing that the sage agreed readily, Nozaki Umetaro couldn't help staring at the sage for a while, then slowly lowered his head, propped his cheek with one hand, and fell into his own thoughts...
