The author of the depressing comic book series makes the heroine cry.

"I'm starving. I'm really starving."

(All the characters in this article are adults, don’t ask! If you ask, they are adults!)

(It's not soul-travel, it's just a correction to the flat world, the protagonist didn't realize it)

Lying on the sofa, Xia Qiu moaned weakly. He thought he was a time traveler who had a miserable life. How could a time traveler, after traveling through time, at least have enough food and clothing, even if he didn't make a good living?

How come I almost starved to death at home?

In fact, it’s not Xia Qiu’s fault. The main reason is that there is no previous plot hint at all for this time travel.

One night, Xia Qiu hurried home with a bag of snacks and happy water, preparing to watch anime and play games in the evening. As a result, a white light flashed and he came to this unknown world.

Good job! I'm just like that!

When other people traveled through time, at least there was a truck to pick them up and drop them off, but here in Xia Qiu there was no clue at all, so who knows what kind of world he had come to.

Looking at the neon words on the street, Xia Qiu realized belatedly that he had arrived in Neon, on the other side of the ocean.

Then a memory came flooding back.

A Chinese student studying abroad, a sunny boy with a hard but positive life, works at a convenience store every day to earn his living expenses and rent.

In short, my predicament is similar to that of my previous life, but my living conditions were better in my previous life. After all, I have a house left by my parents, and I can also write some novels.

Although life cannot be said to be rich, it can be said that we are not starving.

I am miserable in this world, often having to go hungry to save money to pay the rent.

After reviewing his memories, Xia Qiu realized how miserable he was in this world. Due to overwork and malnutrition, he died in a small rental house where no one knew about it.

"Oh, I don't want to be the first time traveler in history to die after traveling here. I will be laughed at by my predecessors."

Lying on the sofa in silence, he turned himself over like a salted fish.

Forget it, forget it. Since I have already traveled through time, what else can I do? I’ll just fill my stomach first.

Thinking of this, Xia Qiu quickly went to the convenience store downstairs to buy a bento, and hurried home to enjoy it.

"I don't know whether to say you are stubborn or have guts. You have money but you insist on saving it. If you lose money, you can earn it again, but if you lose your life, it's really gone."

After barely filling his stomach, Xia Qiu felt that his previous life was not worth it.

After cleaning up the garbage, Xia Qiu sat in front of the computer and planned to search the Internet for things about this world. He hoped that he would not travel to a strange world. He was just a salted fish and did not want to be involved in any inexplicable vortex.

And then look for a way to make money in this world, work? It's impossible to work!

"Shuchiin Academy? Sobu High School? And Totsuki High School? Hisss... Could it be that I have traveled to a world where everyday life and anime are mixed together?"

As an old otaku of the second dimension, these colleges that only appear in anime are naturally familiar to him, so after seeing the names of these schools, Xia Qiu was certain that he might have traveled to the world of anime.

It's okay, at least there is no gas leak in Fuyuki City, no spacequake in Amamiya City, and no CCG in Tokyo City. It is a normal and ordinary world.

"So how can I make a lot of money so I can live a comfortable life?"

Xia Qiu began to ponder, stroking his chin in deep thought...

I tilted my head to look at myself in the mirror. I looked quite handsome, but I was thin due to malnutrition. In other words, I looked weak.

Be a DUCK!

No, no, I still have some dignity. At least I have to find a young rich woman!

Suddenly Xia Qiu's eyes caught sight of an advertisement on the web page.

[Do you want to become famous overnight? Do you want to become a god with one book? Here! All your wishes can come true! Dengeki Bunko is waiting for you! ]

This ad is...

Wait, I think I can write a novel?

After all, I was an online novel writer in my previous life, and since I traveled through time, how could I not be a plagiarist!!!

You can copy anything!

Xia Qiu has already seen huge amounts of silver waving towards him!

Now that I have decided to be a plagiarist, it is natural for me to see if there are any duplicates in the light novels of this world.

I looked at several publishing houses, and all of them published works that I had never seen before. I didn't see any of the popular light novels that I was familiar with in my previous life.

Good! I copied it!

Xia Qiu was very proactive and opened Word!

But...with so many works in my mind, which one should I choose?

Besides, how could it become popular if it was written with my own writing style? Although the light novels in this world are different from those in my own world, the story plot and writing style are not much worse than yours.

What if what I write is terrible? Wouldn’t that be the end of me?

Just when Xia Qiu was feeling confused about this, his vision suddenly became a little blurry.

Then a virtual character panel appeared in front of Xia Qiu.

"What is this? A golden finger? I have a golden finger too."

【Name: Xia Qiu】

[Age: 18 (modify it if you understand)]

[Identity: A Chinese student studying abroad, a freshman at Sobu High School.]

【掌握技能:写作lv2(15/100)，厨艺lv3(74/100)。】

What a simple panel, but there is no newbie gift pack? It's a pity.

But what does the level behind this mastered skill mean?

Xia Qiu clicked on the level behind the skill and then got a general understanding of it.

lv1 normal proficiency.

Level 2 has some strength and can be considered a leader in this industry.

Level 3 genius!

What monster is level 4?

lv5 This world has no room for you anymore.

The number in the brackets at the back represents the proficiency in the game. Once it is full, you will advance to the next level!

Hiss! This cheat is pretty good!

If I practice my LV2 writing skills further, wouldn’t I be able to retell the popular works from my previous life?

Although the current proficiency is enough, there are better options, why not do the best!

Since God has given me a chance to travel through time, I naturally shouldn't fool others.

"Level 3 cooking skills..."

Don’t ask why Xia Qiu is so good at cooking, it’s all tears.

Since childhood, Xia Qiu's parents have told him that it is easier for boys who can cook to find girlfriends.

At that time, Xia Qiu, who was still snotty and confused, nodded in a daze, and then began to study cooking on his own, and he hoped to find many girlfriends in the future!

In fact, Xia Qiu is indeed very talented in this area, even better than her mother who has been cooking for more than ten years.

But later Xia Qiu realized that these two unscrupulous parents were just too lazy to cook! They coaxed Xia Qiu to learn how to cook for them!

Okay, okay, so neat, right?

Later, Xia Qiu realized that boys who can cook are more likely to find a girlfriend? That's all a lie, wuwuwu...

only……

In fact, Xia Qiu later learned that his parents had a strange disease that could not be cured and they did not want to be treated. They did not want to drag down Xia Shu's future, so they chose to commit suicide one day and entrusted Xia Qiu to his aunt.

Finally, she left a letter, telling Xia Qiu: Remember to eat on time in the future. Xiaoqiu can cook, so don’t order takeout. Live your own life well. Also, mom didn’t lie to you, boys who can cook are really attractive.

My thoughts return to the present.

A pearl dripped down her cheek.

“Just choose this one!”

Your Lie in April!

"It's also your lie that boys who can cook are attractive."
