He never thought that someone could think so clearly about the deceitful design techniques of reasoning.

The more Kawai Shinta thought about it, the more he found it unbelievable. In his opinion, just based on the design concept of these nine tricks, Akihara Hiroto could have a place in the neon reasoning world.

This Akihara-san may really be a genius, so how can he write a work like "Death by Negligence" that contains many tricks and tricks!

Time passed bit by bit, and after 20 minutes, Kawai Shinta ended the call.

By this time, he had already forgotten that the purpose of calling Seto Yue just now was to find out about Akihara Yuuto's character.

But he doesn't think it's important. A writer with such talent is a treasure in the neon literary world. Even if his character is poor, so what.

Compared with the changes he can bring to the future of the neon literary world, some small personal matters are nothing at all.

But having said that, why did this teacher Akihara leave the Mantan Club, and why did the Man Tan Club ban him?Even if there is a problem with the character of the writer, it shouldn't be like this, right?

The more Kawai Shinta thought about it, the more he felt strange, picked up the receiver again, and dialed a number in the address book.

As the vice president of the Mystery Writers Association, Kawai Shinta has a certain status in the neon literary world, and has connections with many publishing industries.

So this time he contacted Jing Fanshe, Mantanshe's competitor.

As competitors, the two should know a lot about each other's intelligence.

The phone was connected quickly, and Shinta Kawai held the receiver and said, "Director Murata, I'm Shinta Kawai, and I want to ask you something."

"It's like this. The PR Bureau of Mantansha recently made a..."

"You ask someone to ask, okay, I'll wait first."

Shinta Kawai put down the phone, and waited for a while.

After waiting for 15 minutes, the phone rang and Shinta Kawai picked it up.

A male voice came from the microphone: "Chairman Kawai, based on what an editor named Hideki Awazu of our "April Youth" said, the development of the matter is like this..."

Kawai Shinta nodded subconsciously, and then listened carefully. After listening for more than 20 minutes, he put down the microphone.But at this time, he already had a clear understanding of the ins and outs of this matter.

But the more he learned about the inside story, the more angry he became.

Damn Mandanshe, it's just that the writers have ended their cooperation, and you let the outside world block them.

If you all do it like you, wouldn't writers become slaves to publishing houses? !

No, we cannot set this precedent!

Also, if a genius like Hiroto Akihara, who can come up with nine tricks and design techniques, really closed his pen because he was suppressed, it would undoubtedly be a great loss to the neon literary world!

Kawai Shinta stood up and walked back and forth in the office space.After a while, he finally decided what to do next.

He thought for a while, picked up the microphone again, and called Takeda Youxiang, who was in charge of external public relations, back.

"Taketa, the candidates for the newcomer award will not change." Kawai Shinta looked at his subordinate and said, "Besides, please send me a few special invitations, except for the vice president of the Mandan Club who was originally scheduled to attend. In addition, invite a minister named Daigo Kihara and an associate editor named Kohei Takei."

Hearing this request, Taketa Yusho couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

Inviting ministers and so on is barely reasonable, but what is it like to invite an associate editor of a magazine.But since the superior said so, I should just do it myself.

He nodded and turned around, but what he didn't notice was that there was a playful smile on Kawai Shinta's face...

[Chapter 142.141 An Unexpected Invitation]

When Shinta Kawai was preparing for the award ceremony, Hiroto Akihara was wearing a gray suit, waiting under the Daimaru department store in Ginza.

Ginza, the main business district in the Central District of Tokyo, was once known as "the most expensive place in Asia" and gathered famous brand products from all over the world.In addition, the nightclub culture here is also very prosperous, and it has become a place that most neon men yearn for.

But the purpose of Akihara Yuto's visit today is to change the clothes on his body.

In fact, he thought it was nothing at first, but Asano Aiko thought that if he wanted to attend the Newcomer Award for Mystery Literature, all major media outlets across the country would appear, so he couldn't simply wear one casually.

Under her strong request, Akihara Youcai had no choice but to agree, and agreed to buy a new suit together.

"It's so slow, why hasn't Asano come yet." Akihara Yuto looked at the watch on his hand, then looked up at the crowd coming and going in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh.

It was the same in my previous life. Whenever I went out with my female classmates and friends, I often stayed a little longer than the scheduled time.

Just when Akihara Hiroto was thinking about whether he should make a phone call, he suddenly found someone patted him on the back.

"It's been a long time, Akihara." A gentle voice sounded from behind.

Hiroto Akihara turned his head and saw Aiko Asano smiling slightly.

Today's Asano Aiko deliberately wore a light green cardigan, and inside the cardigan was a white skirt.It may be because of the fit of the clothes, the lines on her body are set off extremely softly.

Akihara Hiroto was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that he pretended to complain, "If you don't come again, I'm going to go home directly."

"Sorry sorry," Asano Aiko gave a slightly apologetic smile.

Because of the consideration of makeup and dressing up, she was only delayed for a short while, and when she found out, the time had already exceeded the expected time, so she came in a hurry.

Hiroto Akihara shrugged, "It's fine, as long as someone gives me an apology."

Just when Asano Aiko was puzzled, Akihara Yuto said with a smile: "Today's lunch at noon is up to you."

Hearing this request, Asano Aiko felt a little amused, but still agreed.

Then, the two turned around, walked into the mall called "Daimaru Department Store", and walked in the direction of the escalator.On the third floor of the mall, there are stores for men's suits.

Seeing the scenery above and below the escalator getting smaller and smaller, Akihara Yuto said to Asano Aiko: "Asano, although I know you have confidence in me, whether you will win the Newcomer Award for Mystery Literature this time, I think it is still too much to know." big."

Receiving an award is already full of too many uncertainties.

The preferences and positions of the judges, the level of other shortlisted works, the plans of the Mystery Writers Association, and other external factors may hinder oneself from being awarded the Newcomer Award.

For example, some of the selected judges didn't like the style of "Death by Wrongdoing", or the judges were influenced by Mantansha, or the Mystery Writers Association had other plans...

Everything of this kind may make him look forward to it in vain, which is equivalent to repeating the mistakes of the Mantan Society Literature Awards...

To be honest, he didn't want Asano Aiko to feel as uncomfortable as him.

Asano Aiko listened to the words carefully, and then said sincerely: "Akihara, I know you may be worried a lot, but I hope you can have more confidence in yourself."

"Do you still remember what you said to me?" She paused, and then continued: "The so-called writer is to use his own words as a weapon, and then continue to struggle in the literary world."

She raised her head and met Akihara Yuto's gaze: "Even if you have a lot of doubts in your heart, don't you believe in the pen in your hand?"

"Even if it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time, and a next time. No matter what, I hope you can firmly believe in your ability."

Hearing these words, Akihara Yuto was a little surprised. He was worried that Asano Aiko would be too worried, but she didn't expect that.

He thought for a while, and smiled, "I see, Asano!"
