People are in Sobu, the back table is Yukinoshita

"Moses Moses."

Chiba answered the phone.

(Hey, did you actually answer the phone?)

Chiba: "...Then I'll hang up."

(Wait! No, I have something important to see you!)

Chiba: "Speak, listen."

Throwing the empty Coke bottle in his hand into the trash can accurately, Chiba responded.

(We're going to have a fan meeting for you...beep...beep...beep...)

"It's boring."

Hanging up the phone, Chiba sat on the sofa and looked at the phone screen.

next moment.

The screen lit up again, and the incoming letter reminder was still from Machida, and Chiba skillfully connected.

"Moses Moses."

(Hey, hey, you bastard, I'm your editor, why don't you hang up the phone so directly! It makes me very embarrassed!!)

"Please add the word "consultation" before editing."

Chiba took the potato chips and responded softly.

(Even so...forget it, you don’t know how to listen anyway.)

"The one who knows me is the editor Machida. As for the fan meeting, there is no need."

Kacha... Well, the barbecue flavor is better.

(I can’t figure out why you, a 17-year-old youth, would resist such a famous thing... If other new and young writers knew that there was such a treatment, they wouldn’t jump up.)

Machida's voice was full of helplessness.

"So, don't attribute me to them. I'm just an ordinary person who makes money to support his family and keep himself alive."

Kacha... another potato chip fell into his mouth.

(If Teacher Qianmu is an ordinary person, then what are we people...)

"I don't know, anyway, I don't like those activities."

Chiba said calmly.

(...Hey, my teacher Qianmu, I pushed it for you... It's hard for me to meet you as an author...)

"Editor Machida, you can't say that. I have created a lot of achievements for you. Look, your current position in Immortal River, not to mention the position of shareholders, is definitely at the top."

Putting on her slippers, Chiba walked towards the refrigerator. Potato chips would be better served with Coke.

(Ahem, you brat, you know how to argue with me about this.)

Machida’s tone was a little awkward. After all, Chiba’s words were correct. Since she signed Chiba, Chiba has directly swept the island country’s novel world with a book called Three-Body Problem, and opened up a book dedicated to him in the island country occupied by light novels. unique sci-fi channel.

This novel has blatantly become Undead River's cash cow, and of course Chiba's own cash cow.

"Although I have used it many times, it is very effective every time, isn't it~Gulu~"

Sitting back on the sofa, Chiba opened the lid, took a sip of soda, and said to her.

(...Drinking too much soda is not good for your health...)

"Compared to wine, I think it's pretty good. Besides, we are in good health. These bottles of soda are fine, but Machida, if you don't drink a few bottles of wine every day, you may not be able to sleep. Let's go~"

Chiba said in a subtle tone, in some respects, Machida Sonoko and Shizu-sensei are quite similar, both are beautiful women, but at the same time they are both Her Majesty the Holy Maiden, and they both drink and smoke... Tsk tsk...

(It's not that serious...)

Hearing Chiba's words, Machida's tone was a little embarrassed.

"The last time I went out to blow a string, how many bottles did you blow by yourself? In the end, you were paralyzed there. If we hadn't dragged you back, maybe you would have lost your saintly body."

(...so what were you doing at that time... you sent me home without doing anything!! You bastard!)

Thinking of that day, Machida gritted his teeth. The old woman must be considered a beautiful woman. Unexpectedly, after being drunk, this guy was completely indifferent... After sending himself home, he turned around and caught the bus back to his home taxi……

"Hey, I sent you home with good intentions and didn't touch you. Are you still not happy? Well, next time you're drunk, don't let me run into it. Otherwise, you won't even think about getting out of bed the next day. !"

(Oh, you are so brave? Come out for dinner on Saturday, sister, how about I give you this chance~)

Machida said to him with a seductive tone.

"Forget it, I'm not free."

Chiba said, I refuse.

(Tsk, are you still intimidated? Obviously, people have a good impression of you, otherwise, you can take me away~)

Chiba: ...

You can still say anything...

"...You want to find a man and go crazy..."

Chiba said helplessly.

(Hmph, that's only if my old lady likes it, Yuuichi~ I think you're pretty good~)

"I'm underage, you bastard, you've committed a crime by saying this. If I pass this recording to the police station, you'll be ready to go to jail!"

Qianye twitched the corner of her mouth, you are hungrier than Teacher Jing!

(Cut, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has my people, I will be afraid of this?)

Machida said with a look of disdain.

Chiba: ...

Chapter 32, Xia Shizi's interview meeting (asking for tickets...)

"I think I have to think carefully about the news that you invite me out in the future. You have such a big background. If something happens to me, won't there be a place to cry?"

Chiba said cautiously.

(So, Xiao Youyi, you just follow your sister, and my sister will support you in the future~)

"The surname is harassing again, I'm hanging up the phone."

Qianye responded to her with a speechless face.

(...Where is the guy who doesn't understand the style~ Obviously everyone has made it so clear...beep beep...)

Machida: ...

…………

"Moses, Moses, hello, editor Machida, let's talk about it first, if the surname is harassing, please hang up directly~"

(Marriage proposal should not count as harassment, right?)

Machida said tentatively.

"Hang up~"

Machida: ...

(...It's Xia Shizi...there's an interview meeting about new book research.)

"Xia Shizi? The interview meeting? Is it related to me?"

Chiba said with some doubts.

"Originally it has nothing to do with you... It's just... Xiaoshi's character... It's completely impossible for us to arrange for people to interview normally... So, I'm going to ask you to come."

Machida also said helplessly that the two writers he manages... are stronger than the other, but their personalities are equally weird.

The most mysterious master in the industry, Isuke Chiki, became popular in the industry with his book The Three-Body Problem, and even Hollywood wants to obtain the film copyright of The Three-Body Problem.

However, this master seemed to have no intention at all of the huge amount that Hollywood had promised him, and he never expressed it. In the end, Undead Chuan rejected the proposal.

As for himself, he has no idea about this at all. According to him, he has to wait for the film group from the Celestial Dynasty... It's a bit confusing what is going on in his mind...

As for Xia Shizi, although she is much inferior to Teacher Qianshu, she also has a great reputation in the field of island country novels today. This is the reason why she only wrote one book. Under the guidance of Master Tree, the future is also limitless.

However, this poet Xia seemed to have no interest in anyone other than Teacher Qianshu and herself.

These two people, while making Machida proud, also really gave Machida a headache.

"I come?"

Hearing this sentence, Chiba raised her eyebrows...

(That's right, apart from you, I really can't find anyone who can make Xiaoshi take this interview seriously, it's really troublesome...)

Machida said with a headache.

(So, Yuichi, you can't shirk this time. You must know that I have notified the higher authorities many times before I got this interview. It is extremely important for the promotion of Xiaoshi's new book!)

Chiba: ...

Are you going to reveal your identity after all...

"How long until the interview?"

Chiba asked.

(In terms of time, there is still plenty of time, about 2 months later, because I was notified by Xiaoshi today that her new book has already taken shape, two months is almost enough for her to conceive the framework, and, for the interview meeting , we are just mosaic head portraits throughout the whole process. In order to ensure the writer's sense of security, we will

It will not reveal your looks and appearance, so the only ones who can really see your true face are Xiaoshi and me. Besides, don’t you want to meet Xiaoshi? She admires you very much, let me tell you A secret, Xiaoshi is a big beauty~

According to my understanding of Xiaoshi, as long as you are willing to chase her, the chances of the two of you having fun can be as high as 90.00% nine!

How about it~)

Machida was tempted.

"But, what about editor Machida~ If Kashiko and I leave, what about Machida, we are very reluctant to be editor Machida~"

Xiao Mian, play with me? We have seen a lot of beauties, that's all.

(Certificate?!)

"Eh?"

(I'll drive to you right away, get the certificate right away, and get married tonight! Bring a child next year!)

Chiba: "...I'm asleep! Goodbye!"

"Beep beep..."

Hearing the hang up notification tone, the corners of Machida's mouth slightly lifted.

"Hmph~ little devil, let me play with my sister~ my sister is serious~ If you dare to play, I will dare to go up~"

He took the beer beside him and took a sip.

"By the way, Yu Yi hasn't told me yet, whether he will go or not!"

After saying that, he picked up the mobile phone next to him and called again.

"Hello, the phone you dialed has been switched off."

Machida: ...

………………

"Interview meeting... 2 months later..."

At this time, Chiba was also thinking about the interview that Machida told him...

"Forget it, let's just go there. For this 'student', we are quite optimistic about her."

In the end Chiba agreed.

Looking at the phone that has been turned off.

"Send another message to Machida tomorrow."

Thinking of Machida's words just now, Chiba promises that as long as she agrees, that woman will definitely drive over and drag her to get the certificate...
