I Won't Be a Loser

"Ah."

"Let's go, Clover."

Clover who was ready, glanced at Sanye who was at home, stuck out her tongue, made a grimace, and followed the sage towards the door, leaving Sanye alone at home, Sanye, who had nothing to do, watched the door close, then sat down at the desk and began to think seriously.

After sitting for a while, he picked up a book casually, opened it, and read it seriously.

"Is it really okay to let my sister stay at home alone?"

"Worried about her being alone?"

"My sister's character is that she can't be idle. Let her stay at home alone like this, and I don't know what she will go crazy."

"That's not enough. In the afternoon, she can go shopping with Setsuna. She should be able to hold back."

Holding an umbrella and protecting four leaves.

The two brothers and sisters were walking in the continuous drizzle. When they came to the subway station, they put away their umbrellas. The sage himself had a monthly pass card, but he still had to buy a ticket for Clover. After the two entered the subway station, Clover was Sitting quietly beside the sage, his eyes began to observe all around.

The place where the sage lives is relatively safe, and there aren't any strange people around, so when sitting on the subway, you can't see any troublesome guys.

Yotsuba just glanced at it for a while, then withdrew her gaze, and quietly looked at the advertisements posted above the subway car, especially when she saw those funeral advertisements, her gaze became a little more strange.

People in this country don't shy away from funerals very much, and some blocks are even close to the cemetery, that is, the "grave view room".

Originally, these advertisements were not so obvious, but with the aging of society, these advertisements for funeral services have gradually become more and more, and even many elderly people still choose to die by themselves. After the funeral service, pick yourself a 'little home'.

Sage sitting quietly in the subway is still thinking about meeting with Fuzeoka Mari, thinking about how to discuss about the film adaptation.

He didn't pay much attention to the advertisements Yotsuba saw. After two stops along the way, he arrived at the station near the publishing house. After leaving the station, he went to the entrance of the publishing house where Kaiyingshe was located.

After reporting the names of himself and Mari Fuzeoka, Mari Fuzeoka, who was still processing the documents, also put down the work at hand and went to the meeting room to meet the sage.

"Who is this child?"

"Sister, Miyamizu Yotsuba."

"Hi, I'm Mari Fuzeoka, your brother's editor."

"Miyamizu Yotsuba, please give me your advice."

Yotsuba also greeted Fuzeoka Mari obediently, then sat quietly beside the sage, watched as Fuzeoka Mari took out the document and handed it to the sage, the sage took it with his hand, and read it seriously stand up.

"The other party is considered a well-known author in the industry, and has been nominated for Best Film at the Film Academy Awards."

"Nominated?"

"Nominate."

Now the entire film industry is almost in a state of neglect, and when the older generation of directors have begun to abdicate, there are not many suitable replacements in the entire film industry.

"As the highest award for local films, even being nominated is considered pretty good."

"That's true. If someone is willing to adapt my work, it's already very good. How much is the other party's asking price?"

"300 million yen."

The sage sitting at the table fell into a brief silence after hearing the quotation from the other party. The price was not very high, but it was not very low either. For a new writer like him, it was already a very reasonable price. It can even be called a good price.

"condition?"

"No."

"Then the other party is too generous. There are no conditions for a fee of 300 million yen?"

"No."

He looked down at the contract in front of him, and carefully read all the conditions above, but it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it. It used to be an adaptation of a small movie, but now suddenly it can be shown on the big screen, which makes the sage's heart feel like Can't help feeling a bit.

Quietly lowering his head, after carefully reading all the clauses on the paper in front of him, the sage had no other opinions and nodded.

"Sign directly now?"

"It can be like this, or you can meet the director of the other party, and then sign this. In fact, that director seems to be very interested in you."

"for me?"

Wrinkling his brows, the sage looked at Fuzeoka Mari opposite him with some puzzlement.

"It seems that I know your identity as a sage, and said bluntly that if you are interested, you can participate in the movie audition, you can try to become an 'angel' or something... the other party's original words."

"........"

After a moment of silence, the sage raised his eyelids and looked at Fuzeoka Mari opposite him.

"Actors are very tired, and their income is not high."

"Well... usually like this."

Most of the high income does not come from remuneration, but from the endorsement fees of those advertisements, and those other various advertising fees.

"Then forget it."

He signed his name and handed the contract to Fuzeoka Mari.

"Anything else?"

"It's nothing to worry about, but after the movie is successfully filmed and released, it is estimated that it will also promote a wave of sales."

"probably."

At first I thought that my work would be quite a failure. I almost gave up on myself with the first printing of 20 copies, but it turned out to take off suddenly. After a series of downs, it became a small bestseller. [-] copies have been printed, and I don't know when it will reach [-] copies.

On the contrary, it's a new work. It's one thing that he hasn't finished writing it yet. Even if he finishes writing it, he doesn't know when it will be, and he doesn't know if it can catch up with his current sales.

"When the new work arrives, maybe we can take advantage of the release of the movie and put it on the bookstores together, and we can also promote it along with the movie."

"It makes sense, I'll try my best."

The shooting of the movie will take at least half a year, or even a year, which is still very early. The sage himself is not in a hurry or caring. He stood up quietly and looked at Yotsuba beside him. .

"Then, let's go first."

"Ah."

Fuzeoka Mari tidied up the documents in front of her, stood up, and the sage looked at the black silk under her black skirt politely, and quickly withdrew his gaze.

After saying goodbye to Fuzeoka Mari, she left Kaisakusha directly. While walking on the road, Yotsuba glanced at her brother beside her.

"Is there any question you want to ask?"

The sage who noticed Yotsuba's gaze asked his sister first.

"No...it's nothing. Will your work be made into a movie?"

"Probably, after signing that, if nothing happens to the other party, it should be made into a movie."

"Can Itomori see it?"

"It should be a little bit reluctant, but you can probably see it in Hida and Nagoya."

"Oh."

Yotsuba didn't seem very excited. If it was Sanye, she probably already held his arm and asked about the movie.

"Let's go, let's go shopping first, and then go to see your sister after shopping. Anyway, there is still time."

The original estimate was that it would take an hour or two, but I didn't expect that in only half an hour, the matter had already been negotiated and adapted into a movie. For the sage himself, it must be beneficial and harmless , with his current position, there is no reason to reject this.

He is not a Wenqing who insists on himself, as if he wants to highlight his own character, thereby making an enemy of money, and refusing to adapt such things, he will definitely not be able to do it anyway.

With another 300 million yen in the account, the goal of 3000 million yen is getting closer and closer.

'When the time comes, if it's almost there, should I ask for a loan from the bank? '

After a moment of silence, he still hates loans. The feeling of being in debt makes him feel sick, so forget about the loan. He will try his best to earn enough money during the three years of high school. .

Clover, who followed the sage, looked at the frown of the sage from time to time, and also became concerned, not knowing what her brother was thinking about.

But he was afraid of disturbing the sage's thinking, so he didn't open his mouth. The sage held his hand, and the two walked forward together.

Regarding the future, the wise man thought about it for a while, and then gave up thinking. He focused more on Yotsuba beside him, stared at his sister for a while, and had to sigh with emotion.

Twin ponytails are very cute, and four leaves are also very cute, but even if they are very cute, they are still a bit short.

So, she led Clover into the beauty shop, entrusted Clover to the beautician in the shop, and made Clover's eyes widen. When she was at a loss, she was directly pressed on the seat ——

"Ah-"

After a sneeze, Mitsuba looked around, always feeling a bad premonition, as if someone was doing something behind her back that made her feel uncomfortable.

"what time is it now."

I looked at the time and found that it was almost noon, and there was still a long time until the afternoon, and I was a little depressed, but my stomach didn't feel anything because of the breakfast I had just eaten.

"what--"

Sighing, Sanye looked at the bed, and then at the desk drawer.

A little ashamed, but more curious, she stretched out her hand, slowly opened the drawer, and her eyes fell on the small rose red box——

When the Cicadas Sing in Summer: 232. Mitsuba's New Clothes

Even if he lives in Itomori, it doesn't mean Mitsuha. He doesn't know anything about health care. At least there are courses on physical health care, and boys are always interested in those things. Sometimes, I often hear those boys talking about these things.

I can't blame all the boys, but I can understand these aspects. Those boys who start to get together after class, seem to be very cautious, but have exceptionally loud voices, and talk about things that are not suitable for children. Has no small feats.

Staring at the pink box in the drawer, which even had fluorescent fonts, she stretched out her hand hesitantly. Even if she had already picked it up once, when she saw this again, she still felt inexplicable. I'm a little nervous.

When her fingers gradually touched the small box, she couldn't help biting her lips, and her fingers began to tremble——

"Have you...used this one?"

Looking at the unsealed box, it is obvious that it has already been used, and Sanye thought about the object of the sage's use, and it seems that there is only one person.

I can't help but glance towards the window, I don't know when the other party will come to find her, and thinking about the relationship between the sage and the other party, I have already used it...

After coming out of the beauty shop, seeing Yotsuba whose hair became much softer, the sage took her hand and continued walking towards the clothing shop.

Yotsuba's clothes are not too bad. In terms of basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation, she is a little short of 'walking', but living in Itomori is such a small town, it takes a while to get there, and it is indeed not necessary. on what 'line'.

"Is the next step going to find my sister?"
