"Well--"

His expression hesitated, could it be that my inadvertent question touched the key to answering the question?That said, his former work can be discerned by day and night.

"It can't be completely divided so clearly." He said, "Let's just treat it as night work."

According to him, day and night are mixed, and night is the majority?

"Is it such a long time span?" I asked.

It seems to be quite heavy work, so the reason for resignation is that the working hours are too long and too much overtime?I can only think of some emerging cutting-edge industries, but he said that professional qualifications are not valued, and it seems that this is not the industry.Mr. Dazai is obviously not very old next year, so the range of careers he can choose is very limited.

Dazai waved his hand——

"The number of questions has been exhausted, you can start guessing the occupation."

"Is it a multinational company or an international trading company?" Some companies will deliberately reverse the working hours for the convenience of cooperating with foreign partners. In this way, day and night are mixed, and there may be more nights.

"It's a bit of a touch, but—it's not."

...I guessed wrong.

If so, let's take a wild guess.

"Night train driver?"

"wrong."

"Night school teacher?"

"wrong~"

"The night shift worker at a 24-hour chain store?

"No, no." He denied: "By the way, the salary of the detective agency is already quite generous."

The implication is that this type of work does not meet the conditions he said earlier that "the salary of the previous occupation is higher".

...It seems that it is difficult for ordinary industries to meet this condition.What about entertainment-related industries?

"Night radio host?"

"Bubu—" He imitated the sound effect of the wrong answer in the quiz show, "Do I look like someone who can be a radio host?"

"Then... bar night DJ or something?"

"The difference between the two is too far!?" He complained briskly.

"Ah..." Indeed, guess that career must always be combined with personal experience and demonstrated work ability?So to sum up, in my eyes, Mr. Dazai is a person who is good at communication. He has a very strong set of self-means in conversation, and his ability to process information is also quite strong. He can quickly filter and classify effective information. To fully utilize these abilities, and to work mainly at night...

"US stock trader?"

"Ah! This is not bad!" He praised happily: "But it's wrong."

If you don't use your information skills, isn't it a job to show your communication skills?

"Real estate broker?"

"That's not exactly a night job, is it?"

"……Right."

Come to think of it, what job is there that values ​​people skills, and is nighttime, high-paying——

When I was thinking, my gaze had been converging on the ice floe in the cup, but now that the light was turned off, his clothes were projected onto the wall of the cup, and I moved my gaze up along the folds of the corners of the clothes, and finally landed on Dazai Qingjun’s face superior.

Wait, appearance can also be included in the job scoring process.

"Are you an entertainer...?" I tentatively asked, always feeling that Mr. Dazai would not like working in the showbiz, which is full of rules and regulations. I was already guessing wildly.

"Hmm! Totally wrong!" he commented cheerfully.Then he lowered the hand on his chin and said lightly, "Do I look like an artist? You mean I look like KiraKira~!"

So the scope of what I can think of is very narrow.

"Could it be a male PR?" I said self-destructively.

He looked at me with a smile, as if he had expected this answer a long time ago.He pressed down the ice floe in the glass over and over again, and I foolishly thought that luckily the ice floe would not drown me.

"Indeed, the entry threshold for male public relations is very low, and it meets the regulations on working hours around the clock. The upper limit of salary is also higher than that of detective agencies. Yi Jun found an answer that meets all the requirements."

But if he didn't nod, wouldn't that prove that he guessed wrong?

To be honest, I thought for a moment what would happen if Dazai-san really nodded.Fortunately, he did not give me this chance to fantasize.

"As expected of a question-and-answer session with a reward of 70 yuan." After sighing with emotion in a low voice, I finally launched an offensive towards today's theme - the rose wine that I had already mixed in front of me.

Dazai stirred up beside him, he had already moved his wine glass aside, and said, "Would you like to try to take a big gulp?"

"How can anyone drink like this?" Although I have only drank beer, fruit wine and the like, I can't agree with him. "If it's beer...you can drink it all in one gulp."

"You can't say that." His smile was just right, and it didn't have that seductive meaning. He wouldn't force me to really try it, but just made a suggestion that he found interesting.

I ended up opting for the middle way and took a sip of what I consider to be a "big sip".When I go down my throat, there is a kind of sweetness like bubbles, and the dizziness is three seconds before I arrive at the battlefield. I use my tongue to lick the place where the wine is stained on the back of my teeth involuntarily.

After I swallowed it in one gulp, Dazai also took a sip of the wheat-colored wine, and the spherical ice floe made a ping-pong sound.His movements are restrained and graceful, and I decided to take that as a role model.

"How did it feel to drink for the first time?"

I regained my composure and told my feelings truthfully: "I don't hate it."

"So you don't like it either?"

"Can't say that." I'd love it, "give me some time."

The withered leaf-colored eyes first set their sights on the mint leaves in my cup, this piece of fresh green is already a lonely boat.

Then, he sighed "Ai ai ai ai" in a very loving tone, and he said to me: "Because Yijun is still a child, there is nothing I can do."

Mr. Dazai said that I am still a child, which I am somewhat unconvinced.According to the legal drinking age, Mr. Dazai is not too old to drink.

I took advantage of the situation and asked, "When did Mr. Dazai start drinking?"

"It's been a long time," he said, "it started in the teens."

"Did you come to this store then?"

"Not very often."

He looked at the hockey puck in the glass that was about to merge with the wall of the glass, curled his fingers around the glass, and stroked the wood grain on the table with his thumb.I can't help but wonder if he's caught in some kind of brooding, some kind of vortex about his past self.

"By the way—" He seemed to say whatever came to his mind, but that's a good sign in small talk—at least he hasn't lost interest in our conversation yet.

He said, "How is Yi Jun's novel writing?"

"Mr. Dazai, do you mean the manuscript paper that was salvaged under the collapsed building?"

"It's only half written, right?" he said, "Did you continue to write after you came back?"

"Not yet." Encountered these things, the train of thought has been interrupted.I also realize that there are still many things that can be improved, "Maybe I will re-edit the content before submitting."

"Didn't you try to submit the rest of the articles? How will the magazine respond?" He seemed sure that I had already submitted the article.

"I haven't received all the replies yet." I said truthfully: "The ones that have been clearly rejected include "Wind Bird and Flower Moon", "Monthly Literature and Art", and "New Wave Literature and Art". They are basically old-fashioned literature and art magazines. Accident."

"Xin Chao's acceptance of manuscripts is relatively loose, right? However, it may also be that the queue is too full recently."

I continued: "Then there is "New Moon". Although there is no clear rejection, judging from the reply, there is not much hope. In the end, what I put my hope on is basically a light literature magazine with middle school students as the main force. After all, with my current Standard, before the serious literature is just a classmate."

"Isn't it good to target the popular fiction award?"

He pointed to the unassuming shelf next to the bar.

There are several well-worn reading materials, two or three popular novels, and a few mid-level magazines. Most of these magazines mention a little bit of everything, miscellaneous studies or random essays, which are closer to public life. Generally, there will be one or two serial articles, and the author can eat enough.

"Popular Novel Award..." Although Mr. Dazai said so, it is actually very difficult.Not to mention that the threshold for orthodox and serious literature awards is too high, and the number of authors targeting popular novels is increasing year by year.

Finally, I said in a concluding tone: "I pin my last hopes on "Aozora Blue" and "Shounen Fengmo". There is also a "Monthly Strange Story."

"The vending machine book as a whole doesn't have any harsh and difficult wording. Compared with the popular, it is a bit light on literature. I think it is also good to vote in magazines related to weird stories. Only in this way, the world will treat Yi Jun My impression has been frozen." He said: "The debut magazine is very important, and it is easy to freeze the world's impression. Considering the future development route, "Monthly Wonderful Story" is not a good choice. I think "Blue" is the best choice. Excellent solution."

"Well, 'Blue' is also selling well among high school students."

"This is just one of them." He said, ""Blue" belongs to the same publishing house as "Xin Chao Literature and Art". It would be more appropriate to aim for "New Tide". In this way, in the eyes of the world, Yi Jun is a writer with an 'orthodox background'. Too close to light literature, although it is easy to get ahead, it is also difficult to transform."

He continued to analyze the reader's psychology: "Although there are many teenagers and girls who prefer literature among high school students, when it comes to literary magazines, "Blue" is still the most respected magazine among the magazines for middle and high school students. It is a blessing that it comes from a famous family. Children at that age have a strong sense of self-awareness. Even if they read different books, they can become the size that they classify the rest of the people into. Children who read "Blue" will look down on other books. Children of books—it happens, too."

"However, let's stop this topic." He clearly started it himself, and after talking aimlessly, he closed the water valve again.

He suddenly cut from the topic of the magazine to the psychology of teenagers, and I was naturally curious.

"What did Mr. Dazai like to read in high school?"

"Me? Read everything." He said, "At that time, I liked youth comics and children's comics the most."

I asked with great interest: "Can't a young man just walk around?"

He said: "The sense of substitution in juvenile manga is too strong."

"Substitute for the protagonist?"

"Of course not." He said, "At the age of teens, it's actually easier to be a villain for a teenager with excess self-awareness and sentimentality than to be a courageous hero in a hot-blooded story."

"Well." He said again, "Of course, I'm not talking about myself, I'm talking about a lot of people I've met at that age. The ending is clear from the beginning, the villain's means, purpose, and how he was defeated by the protagonist in the end. You can guess ten after seeing one, and you don't have any expectations for the serialization. So I can't understand at all—how could someone I look forward to the new serialization every week, and even went to the bookstore to buy the weekly magazine as soon as possible.”

I listened to him talk about himself with relish.

"what about now?"

"It's hard to say that I like it now." He said, "But I can somewhat understand why everyone likes such a story."

The warm light reflected on his side face, and his tone was surprisingly gentle.

"I think it's because—that kind of protagonist is really handsome."

The author has something to say:

Because, it's really handsome.

This chapter is the daily chat between the two of them.

Hope that expresses how they get along.

In fact, it is not wrong to guess the multinational trading company (?)

And after that, another 800 years passed before Wu Yishi knew what "high school" this person went to.
