A live broadcast of a Yokohama strange talk

===========================

The rain became smaller.

The gentle sound of rain penetrates through the doors and windows, which sounds soft and peaceful.Amidst the sound of rain, the cool night wind blows gently, and the thin leaves hidden in the darkness dance slowly.

Natsume Takashi looked at the scenery outside the window, and the tip of the pen in his hand inadvertently left extremely light wear marks on the workbook.

"Natsume! Don't be in a daze, hurry up and do your homework!"

The chubby cat lazily raised its eyelids that were about to close due to sleepiness. The boy's distracted appearance made him unable to sleep peacefully. Natsume Takashi rarely finished tonight's homework, and he didn't know what he was thinking about writing all day long .

Natsume Takashi said: "I know, it will be finished soon."

His pen tip scratched the words on the paper again, but his eyes were obviously not so focused, and he was still thinking about the things that made him think for a long time just now.

"Mr. Cat, you said..."

"Ok?"

Natsume Takashi paused, shook his head, and did not continue: "No, it's nothing."

He ended the topic.

"rest early."

It rained only one day and one night.In the early morning of the next day, there was still a little rainy smell on the leaves with dewdrops. After the sun rose, the last breath was also disappeared by the sun.

Uesugi Raku finally sent him a reply.

【Yeah?As long as you like it, it seems that this Daifuku is very popular. 】

Yes, Uesugi Raku suddenly appeared yesterday, brought him some special products from Sendai, and left in a hurry.

Natsume Takashi intended to let him chat a few more words, but it was a pity that Uesugi Raku said that someone at home was waiting for him.

The so-called "someone in the family" is definitely not a family like parents, nor is it the house where the swordsmen are.

Uesugi Le said: "I live with Oda Sakunosuke, you have seen that man."

——So Natsume Takashi thought about it all night.

After making friends with Uesugi Raku, the relationship between them continued as a friend.Even if he can't recall that period of the past, Uesugi Raku still remembers this relationship well, and often sends him some messages or comes to meet him to chat about the current situation when he returns to Yayuan.

I heard that in the past two days, Uesugi Le and the others brought back a tiger that could turn into a boy...or a boy who could turn into a tiger?

Natsume Takashi is very happy that he has been recognized by Uesugi Raku as a friend.

He doesn't care how many mysteries Uesugi Le has, he always respects and understands his friends.Even with unusual abilities, Uesugi Raku's current attitude seems to him to be a friendly one, not someone who would hurt others for no reason.

Compared with [Asakawa See] who met before, [Uesugi Raku] is not alone, he has many companions by his side.Natsume Takashi is happy to see the success of this, but he is always somewhat wary of the existence of Oda Sakunosuke.

I don't know whether it is good or bad for Uesugi Le to live together with such a dangerous man. Now that they have reached the point of cohabitation, what kind of relationship has developed between the two of them...

Natsume Takashi sighed.

"What the hell are you worrying about all day long!"

Madara finally couldn't take it anymore, he slapped his paw on the table several times in a row, Natsume Takashi was taken aback by him.

He said, "Tomorrow is the weekend, right? OK, let's go!"

Natsume Takashi didn't understand what he was saying: "Go? Where are you going?"

"Do you still need to ask? Of course, go to Yokohama to find Uesugi Raku! Since you are worried about that kid, just go and see his current living environment!"

It turns out that Teacher Cat knows what he is worried about...

Natsume Takashi smiled helplessly.

"Beforehand, I'm not a gossip, so don't ask too many questions when Mr. Cat meets them, okay?"

Madara said disgustedly: "You are so long-winded."

Isn't it a cohabitation relationship? He is a well-informed monster!

……

Compared with modern cities and simple small towns, it can be said that there is a huge gap.

Having not been to the modern city for a long time, Takashi Natsume was at a loss for a while.

He was carrying a backpack containing simple clothes and travel supplies. Madara, as a monster, avoided the experience of entering a carrying bag that ordinary cats should encounter, and was comfortably in his arms at the moment.

After getting off the car, Natsume Takashi sent a message to Uesugi Raku.

【I plan to go to Yokohama on the weekend. 】

Uesugi replied in seconds: [Okay, are you coming today?I'll pick you up? 】

Such an enthusiastic Uesugi Raku made Natsume Takashi feel at a loss, and he couldn't help but smile, but he still rejected Uesugi Raku's invitation: [Thank you, but I want to turn around by myself, and I will go to you later Bar. 】

Uesugi Le replied: [Okay, the address is here: [Address location], do you want to rest at my place at night, the food made by Oda is quite delicious, you may like it. 】

【Okay, I'm looking forward to it. 】

He looked up the address sent by Uesugi Le on the map application, and found that it was still a long way from the station where he was. It was a residential area by the sea far away from the city center, and he entered after getting off the bus. It is a shopping street in the city center.

Fortunately, there are always convenient transportation methods to choose from by subway and bus. Just walking around like this, you can finally reach the address sent by Uesugi Lefa according to the route.

The cat in his arms asked him in a low voice, "Aren't you in a hurry to find him?"

"No hurry, let's go shopping first. Teacher Cat hasn't been to this kind of place for a long time, right?"

So Madara was not in a hurry.

The shopping street is very lively, and weekends are always the days when various stores hold activities. Some school idols from nearby schools will also choose such a place with a lot of traffic to hold an open-air live.Even Takashi Natsume, who came to Yokohama on a whim, can feel the lively atmosphere of this city.

Natsume Takashi's eyes were attracted by the bookstore's promotional poster. He approached the display window and posted it on the most conspicuous window poster. Next to the exquisite pictures and carefully designed title text, the author's name was clearly marked.

This is a pre-sale information. The new work that will be on the shelves is not only jointly recommended by the library and the bookstore, but will also be adapted into a movie of the same name.Before it was published, this work has already been publicized with great fanfare. It can be seen that everyone from the editor to the author is full of confidence in the content of the work.

"Calling in the Deep Sea" is a short story with only two volumes. The author's name is——

Natsume Takashi couldn't help holding his breath, his eyes widened at the name.

[Asakawa Seie] Uesugi Raku used the name he gave him.

This is by no means the same name, because he happened to know the names of a short story and a medium-length novel that Uesugi Raku finished drafting some time ago, and this time he went shopping by himself because he wanted to see if there was any relevant information offline.

What to say?

In his heart, Natsume Takashi still has a slight lack of self-confidence. He will worry that the former blue-haired boy who became friends with him will never come back with Uesugi Raku's memorylessness, and he will worry that he will suddenly run away. Saying that I was friends with you before would make Uesugi Raku feel inexplicable, and also worry about whether Uesugi Rakuza's current friendship exists because of "Asakawa See and Natsume Takashi are friends" to appease him.

But now, those doubts are all gone.

He realizes so deeply that he is an important part of being taken to heart.

He is being watched.

"Mr. Kitty, I don't know how to describe it, but I'm so happy now..." Natsume Takashi said, "When it's on the shelves, I want to buy a set for my friends and relatives around me!"

"?! Calm down, Natsume, don't use your wallet to buy me steamed buns." Madara was stunned, "It's not enough to have a set of people, enough is enough!"

"It's okay, I have enough money."

Walking into the bookstore with a happy mood, Natsume Takashi calmed down and carefully looked at the words on the propaganda.

Uesugi Raku didn't tell anyone what he wrote. Even the swordsmen only saw a few words by accident. This time it was about to be put on the bookstore, and Natsume Takashi knew the title of the work he was writing.Because the promotion is about the same time, the first few volumes of the short story and the long story will also be on the shelves soon, and they will be sold while they are hot.

It seems that after the novel is finished, Uesugi Raku is very busy every day, always writing manuscripts.

Unlike the light novel "I Became a Brave, I Just Want to Read a Book Leisurely", which is obviously a story from the Western fantasy world, the title of this short story "Calling in the Deep Sea" does not explain what it is calling for, but the cover and promotional figures are designed The display also revealed a lot of information.

On the promotional poster of "Deep Sea", the blue sea surface from the bird's-eye view is drawn.In the center of the sea is a deep blue vortex, and some invisible shadows are cruising under the vortex, as if they will break through the waves in the next moment.

The text on the copy is written like this:

[Ordinary you participated in the school expedition club, but the moment you heard the sound of the seabed, you approached "it" irresistibly.

Everything changed in an instant, the companions stood on the opposite side, and those voices were saying——

"You are evil". 】

The illustrators of Uesugi Raku's two works that are being promoted are Shimazaki Setsuna, who created the extremely popular secondary character Altair. Natsume Takashi just listened to the discussions of the boys and girls who visited the bookstore in the bookstore. Get a lot of information.

The readers were originally only curious about Setsuna Shimazaki, but after seeing the copy in the promotional content, they all expressed curiosity.

"From an ordinary person to a big BOSS? I like the contrast! Let's go to the bookstore to buy it when it's on the shelves." Said the teenager who looked like a high school student in a normal uniform.

"I'm more curious about what the sound of the seabed is, and why can it change everything?"

"It's also very interesting to turn against your former companions. Recently, it's all works about loving each other. It's been a long time since I saw this type of work."

"Who told you not to read serious literature?"

The bickering of the teenagers gradually disappeared in the ears as Natsume Takashi walked away.

On the street, the singing of those idols can still be heard from a distance.

Natsume Takashi took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Uesugi Raku: [I saw the promotion in the bookstore, and everyone offline is very interested in your work. 】

……

【Yeah?In fact, some of the content is me... (deleted)]

Uesugi Raku pressed his fingers on the keypad of the phone, but he didn't send it out, and he deleted that sentence again.

In fact, some of the contents were in his dreams.But Uesugi Raku didn't want to say anything.

Those dreams are fragmented and complicated, as long and short as a lifetime spent in a trance.Like what Natsume Takashi said about [Asakawa See] and Natsume Takashi's experience, he is like him but not like him, they are far away, and even he himself cares about it.

Thus, this short story was born.

He takes materials, processes them, and weaves them into a story that seems to be true and false, waiting to be judged by the readers.

He reposted: [I'm looking forward to it, and I can't wait to see everyone's interpretation of the content. 】

He was lying on the sofa, and a few minutes ago he was chatting with Oda Sakunosuke about traveling to Fuyuki.

"I'm a little sleepy." Uesugi Raku said, "If Kishi calls or arrives, please ask Odasaku to wake me up."

Oda Sakunosuke already knew that Natsume Takashi was coming home, he flipped through the recipes and thought about what to cook for the evening, and when he heard what Uesugi Raku said, he reached out and took a blanket and gently covered him.

Then he hugged the person with his strong and firm arms.

"Eh--"

"Go to bed and rest, sleeping on the sofa is not good for your health."

Oda Sakunosuke is still gentle, but sometimes, he does not lack a strong side.

Uesugi Le said honestly: "Okay."

The bed in the room was indeed much more comfortable than the sofa.Oda Sakunosuke helped him press the quilt, turned off the light, and said, "Sweet dream."

"Ah."

——If there is a dream.
