Bungo common problem

Chisato moved Oda Sakunosuke, so that the other party also had the idea of ​​​​real writing.

However, several days passed, neither Chisato nor Oda Sakunosuke wrote a word.

There can be many reasons for Oda Sakunosuke, but there is only one reason for Qianli.

——she didn't know what to write.

Think about it, for the whole mimic incident, she has already written the three main perspectives of Odasaku, mimic, and Mori Ogai, and it is definitely not good to write other things such as the government or the armed detective agency.

After all, these relationships are too far away. The original book didn't even appear for a few seconds, and it didn't do any big things, and it wouldn't have much effect if it was written.

Although there is another point of view in this incident that is one of the key points, Qianli fell into hesitation.

For a long time, in order to pursue "reminder", the characters she used have a little connection with the event itself, maybe a little bit of the context of the event, maybe the background of the characters, or even some similar personalities.

Also because of this, if she really writes from the perspective of Dazai, then the characters she writes will be similar to Dazai.

If she didn't know Dazai Osamu, had never met or even been familiar with Dazai Osamu, she might really grit her teeth and start writing.

But now, in the exact opposite of what she had assumed, she hesitated instead.

Because Osamu Dazai is different, if she really writes a similar character and sells it, everyone will know it in the end.She knew it was absolutely unbearable.

It may be a coincidence that a complete stranger wrote it, but it was definitely intentional when someone he knew well wrote it.

She doesn't want to hurt each other.

"So...do dessert shops have more inspiration?"

It's rare to meet Nakahara Nakahara, who is thousands of miles away, sitting with him in the best-rated shop in Yokohama, looking at the other person holding a pen, staring at the small book tangled up.

"Wouldn't it be noisy?"

Although the environment in the dessert shop is good, but since the shop is located in a commercial street, it is definitely far from being truly quiet.

"Noisy... indeed."

But there is no way, she is squatting on the Edogawa River.

As a person who likes to eat snacks and sweets, it is impossible for Edogawa Ranpo not to come to this No.1 place of Yokohama's confectionery, even if he himself did not come, but it is possible for Fukuzawa Yukichi or Yosano Akiko Can you bring it for him?

But she has been here every day for a week, staying from morning to dusk, but she has not seen a single person.

Thinking of this, Qianli sighed.

"But in fact, I'm just Calvin."

Unlike Mori Ogai who wanted to turn his head and leave immediately when he saw it, Nakahara Chuya, as the person who has the last conscience of the port mafia, Chisato is really quite at ease with him.

Although as a mafia, he should do a lot, but he has a conscience!

"Karvin?"

Zhongyuan Zhong also repeated the words he heard for the first time in a strange way, thinking about the other party's new "Dark Tide" which was released in September, and asked in doubt.

"New book?"

"Well, it's a new book."

Qianli looked at the door again, and after not seeing the person he wanted to see without any accident, his eyes fell on Zhongya Zhongyuan who was opposite him.

"For some reason, I don't know how to write the new book, so I've been looking for inspiration recently."

"Words of inspiration..."

Central Plains also spoke hesitantly.

"Try to talk? Even if it doesn't help, you can hear other ideas."

After all, it's always not good to be bored alone.

"It's true, after all, Mr. Zhongyuan helped a lot last time."

Although the results have been distorted by many readers, it has to be said that the method is fine.

"Actually, the biggest reason is that I didn't think about the protagonist's personality or character this time."

Qianli picked out what he could say, and said it frankly.

"I actually thought about one at first, but then I thought...well, it's not suitable, so I rejected it. Now I'm a little undecided."

"The protagonist's character, that's true."

Zhong Yuanzhong also looked serious.

The protagonist of an article must be the focus of a book. After all, most readers follow the protagonist step by step. If the protagonist is not sure, it should be difficult, right?

But what should be done in this situation?

Zhong Yuanzhong also straightened his serious face, for fear that Qianli would see that his heart had fallen into a daze.

Another personality?But there is no reason why the other party can't think of this kind of thing that he can think of, so it definitely won't work.

But what else?

"that……"

Zhongyuan Zhong also searched his brains to come up with a solution, but this kind of field that he hadn't touched much really limited his imagination.

"Change the character of the protagonist according to the plot? Or the book's... well, if the main body is written, the protagonist..."

What else can the protagonist do!

Just when Zhongyuan Zhongye was thinking hard, Qianli on the opposite side suddenly straightened up.

Is this the strength of Zhongye in the Central Plains?Really love it!

"You are right, Mr. Zhongyuan."

There was surprise in Qianli's eyes.

"If I can express the main idea, it shouldn't matter even if the protagonist has a different personality!"

If the first few books trapped her thinking on the point of "similarity", then after jumping out and thinking about it now, this book does not necessarily require the protagonist's character and background to be similar.

Because in this book, there is only one meaning she wants to express.

--save.

As long as this meaning can be expressed, it should be okay for the protagonist and the plot to have nothing to do with that matter.

"Mr. Zhongyuan! Thank you so much!"

Twice!Zhong also reminded him that he is really a big baby!

Qianli stared at the other party gratefully, and almost shook Nakahara Chuya's hand up and down.

"I got it!"

"Huh? Oh."

What did you realize?

Zhongyuan Zhong, who didn't know what Qianli realized at all, was also in a daze, and could only respond in a daze.

"Anyway, it's good to be able to solve it."

But I'm a little curious, what exactly did that "enlightenment" realize?Speaking of it, I still don't know what the other party will write in the next book.

Even more curious now!

Zhongyuan Zhong also thought that after Qianli realized it, he would write and record without hearing anything outside the window like last time, but the other party just wrote a few words and put the pen and paper in his pocket without any intention of writing at all.

"Aren't you going to write?"

Zhong Yuanzhong couldn't help asking.

"Records or something."

"Last time I had my own thoughts, but this time it's different."

Qianli made a cooing sound without guilt.

"Because I was entangled in the protagonist's affairs, so I didn't think about the content of the novel at all."

Now there is only one subject of "rescue", the content and so on, I haven't had time to think about it at all....

"But I have an idea."

In order to cover up things that he didn't think about at all, Chisato played the author's fixed skills.

—— Made it up on the spot.

"This time I plan to write a very interesting setting."

As for what an interesting setting...

Qianli's head was spinning rapidly, and in just a few seconds, various subjects were flipping through pages in his head, and finally fixed on one of them.

"Through time!"

"Travel through time?"

Nakahara, who had never heard of a novel with such a theme, was also interested.

"What kind of time travel? To the future?"

"No, quite the opposite."

Qianli shook his head, looked down at the patterns on the table, and began to weave.

"Although the future is really good, what I want to write is that the protagonist travels back to the past."

After all, the theme is rescue, so let the protagonist save his friends.The character background and plot do not have the slightest trace of mimic or Dazai Oda, if only the subject of "saving friends" is kept, the world consciousness should not be too obstructive.

"In order to save his friend, the protagonist travels back in time to achieve this goal, but fails."

How can it be successful after just one time travel?After all, saving Oda to do such a hell-level difficulty will not make readers feel difficult at all.

"So he started to travel back in time, but he kept failing."

The more times you fail, the more difficult it is, so the best number of failures is that the protagonist doesn't even remember how many times he failed.

"at last……"

After saying these two words, Qianli stopped again.

As for the ending... If it is Dzogchen, it doesn't seem to be "miserable". After all, the original Zai did not succeed, so the ending of the novel should also end with failure.

The main character fails and the friend doesn't survive anyway.

But world consciousness doesn't seem to let...

Feeling the familiar sense of threat in his heart, Qianli remained expressionless.

He manages the world consciousness so broadly!It's not enough to change myself like this, but I want to change the ending, what the hell...

Change, change is not enough!Isn't it the ending?

Qianli pursed his lips and thought about it, and thought of a person.

Chief Zai.

Because he saw the future of the parallel world in the [book], so that Oda Sakunosuke could write a book and live the life he wanted, he directly usurped Mori Ogai's position and became the leader of Hong Kong gangsters.

He worked diligently to develop the port mafia, maintain order in Yokohama, and lived a life of social animals that got up earlier than chickens and went to bed later than dogs.The most important thing is to really get Oda Sakunosuke to the Armed Detective Agency, so that he can write a book with peace of mind.

In the end, after arranging everything, he jumped down from the first building, and his life came to an end.

"perhaps……"

Qianli murmured, thinking that the ending might be changed to this.

The protagonist sacrifices himself for the sake of his friends.The ending of the process is not important, the most important thing is that the meaning of "saving" and "saving friends" can be conveyed.

After thinking about the ending, Qianli raised his eyes again, and Zhong Yuanzhong, who had listened to Qianli for a long time, "maybe", also hurriedly asked.

"What happened in the end?"

I'm so concerned about half of it!

"In the end..."

It feels a bit dark, after all, it is purely an article that the protagonist has been doing useless work.

No, it cannot be said to be useless, after all, it was not successful in the end, was it?If you think about it this way, it's actually quite good. Although the protagonist is dead, his goal has been achieved!

So generally speaking, it shouldn't be very cruel, after all, the protagonist may be quite relieved in the end?

The protagonist is happy, so how can it be considered a knife?

Qianli hesitated for a moment, and chose to tell the truth.

"The protagonist has finally achieved his goal."

Zhong Yuanzhong also felt that there was something in Qianli's words. He looked at Qianli suspiciously and gave his thoughts honestly.

"If that's the case... the ending is happy."

"Then what, although the goal has been achieved, the ending is that the friend survives and the protagonist dies."

Qianli was a little guilty, but when he thought of the protagonist's mentality of a successful person, he became confident again.

"Although the protagonist is dead, his goal has been achieved, so it is not too cruel."

What's this?This is death without regret! (shock——)

"Huh? The main character is dead?"

Nakahara Chuya's pupils trembled, he looked at Qianli's natural appearance in shock, and questioned his soul.

"Dead? Just dead?"

"Ah, die the main character."

Thousands of miles are exceptionally calm.

"You can see that he has achieved his goal, and he doesn't regret it. Isn't that all right?"

Is the main character happy?happy!Wouldn't it be all right?

Central Plains Chuya:? ? ?

Although what you said is very reasonable, but...but! ! !

Zhong Yuanzhong also hesitated to speak, his voice stuck in his throat, not up or down.

"Qianli, are you..."

He thought about all of Qianli's works and found a blind spot.

"Sacrifice" and "The Believer" are short stories, let's not talk about them.But the protagonists of the three novels don't seem to be very...

The protagonist of "Alive", the killer, even the adopted children died.

The general, the protagonist of "Ghost", although the ending is an open ending, there is also a saying of "falling to death".

The protagonist of "Dark Tide", his family is gone, and the protagonist has been completely used.

Now, the new novel also says that the main character is also dead.

"Don't you think the protagonist died a little too much...?"

After saying the words, Nakahara Chuya thought of something again and spoke additionally.

"Of course, I don't mean to point fingers, I just talk, talk."

I am not the author, so it seems not good to say so much to the author.

"The protagonist died or something..."

Qianli was questioned by Zhongye's soul in the Central Plains, and quickly recalled his book, and the development... seems to be a little bit.

At least the protagonists of the three novels are dead in her heart, and the protagonist who is about to write now will also die...

"Then what, I think, these few books are accidents."

Qianli opened his mouth with difficulty, and quickly blamed himself.

"This is the setting of these few books. In the future, it will not be the case in the future."

She did this to remind Odasaku!If it weren't for the mimic event hanging above her head, the protagonist she wrote would never have died!

Goodness, she used to... wait!

Qianli recalled those colleagues he originally wrote, and fell silent.

Speaking of which... She used to think that she was an author who didn't abuse readers but said that she was a knife. Where she thought it was sweet, readers always said that she wholesaled sugar knives...

Qianli shook his head and explained seriously.

"In short, after I write one or two more books, the main character will not die."

When the mimic incident is over, she doesn't have to worry about how to remind Oda Tsukuru, she can write whatever she wants.

Not knowing Qianli's thoughts, Zhong Yuanzhong also listened to the other party's words, and could only complain silently in his heart.

So at least one more main character has to die, right?

But although he has mastered the knowledge that he should have mastered, he is indeed a mafia who has never studied before, and he is too embarrassed to say anything to a writer like Qianli.

Doesn't the writer who wrote the book know better than a layman like him?

In the end, Zhongyuan Zhong could only say a word dryly.

"Then... come on."

"I will."

In the words, it is not that I think I have a special hobby of writing the protagonist, right?

But he couldn't explain it, and Qianli, who just thought it was normal for him to write the protagonist to death, also responded dryly.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhongyuan."

Compared with Qianli, who has nothing else to do, Zhong Yuanzhong doesn't seem to have so much time to spend at the dessert shop.

After receiving a call from his subordinate, Zhongyuan Zhong also put away his mobile phone and looked at Qianli.

"Mr. Zhongyuan has something to do."

Chisato spoke in a very understanding manner.

"Go quickly if you have something to do, don't delay."

"Yes, but before you go..."

Zhong Yuanzhong also took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.He raised his hand and pressed the hat on the top of his head, covering the tips of his ears with a faint red color.

"We are familiar, right? Do you want to exchange contact information?"

As soon as the words came out, Zhongyuan quickly regretted it.

Is this sentence a bit informal?

He straightened his body again, retracted his hand and stared straight at Qianli, and spoke again with a serious expression.

"Can I exchange contact information?"

Originally, he was afraid that Dazai would cause trouble, but now that Dazai has already caused trouble, there is no need for his previous concealment.

What's more, it's too unreliable to just rely on chance encounters!

Qianli couldn't laugh or cry at Zhong Yuanzhong's serious attitude, so she simply took out her mobile phone and agreed immediately.

"Exchanging contact information or something, of course there is no problem."

It's not Mori Ogai, no one would reject Chuya's conscience!

After successfully exchanging contact information with Qianli, Nakahara Chuya left the dessert shop with seemingly steady but brisk steps.

Qianli was disappointed that he didn't squat down again this day, and returned home and turned on the writing mode with all his heart.

It is easy to forget the time after writing and not going out. It was not until I heard the children at home chatting in the living room about the upcoming New Year that Qianli realized that it was already this time outside.

No matter which country you are in, the festivals that represent the new year are extremely important.

"I didn't expect it to be almost Chinese New Year."

Chisato rubbed her hair and sighed.

"time flies."

She has only written less than half of her manuscript, but it has been another year.

"Because Qianli has been at home, that's why I feel this way. It snowed heavily outside yesterday. Qianli can go downstairs to have a look. It's very beautiful."

I am quite used to the behavior of being a squatting at home without going out during the writing of Qianli, so Oda Sakunosuke picked up the greeting card on the coffee table and asked.

"Shimenawa and Kadomatsu have already bought some postcards. Do you want to write some for Chisato?"

Sending postcards during the Spring Festival is already a tradition. Not only relatives and friends, but even bosses at work can be the recipients of greeting cards.

Generally, in order to deliver it to the other party around New Year's Day, it is usually mailed two or three days before the year.

Oda Sakunosuke himself doesn't have many people he can mail. Apart from polite colleagues and bosses, it seems that there are only his two friends.

"This year, it is indeed possible to write... um, some?"

Last year, because she didn't have any friends, she just politely wrote postcards to the savior Gojo Satoru and the conscientious editor Asakawa Hayato according to the tradition here.

It's easy for Asakawa Satoshi, but it's not for Gojo Satoshi.Because she didn't know the address, she still gave it to the other party in person when the other party came for a stroll.Although it was late, the other party didn't mind.

This year...you can still write to Dazai. Although I don't know the address, I can give it to him when I meet him.

Thinking of this, Qianli approached the sofa, and a stack of postcards on the coffee table came into view.

"I bought a lot."

It turned out to be more than half more than last year. It belongs to the children?

Without waiting for Qianli to say something, Yuu, who was lying on the table seriously writing a greeting card, raised his head and spoke excitedly.

"It's ours. Because I made friends who played with me at school, I want to give it to them."

Last year, I didn't catch up because of time problems, but this year is different!

"But You's handwriting is the ugliest, maybe it will be returned."

Xingsuke, who finished writing the last word, complained mercilessly.

"Your handwriting is the ugliest at home."

"I have practiced well!"

Yu blushed all of a sudden, and explained to himself guiltily.

"I will definitely be able to write well after practicing!"

The children began to compare whose handwriting was the most beautiful. Chisato sat next to Oda Sakunosuke, looked at the scene with a smile, and thought of another question.

For example, the food eaten during the New Year.

"This year...don't do it yourself."

Chisato turned to look at Oda Sakunosuke seriously.

"Except for buckwheat noodles, which should be pretty good, others..."

She moved her throat with difficulty, remembering the tragedy of last year's Chinese New Year.

In the first New Year in this world, she had no idea what to do for the New Year in Japan, so she always prepared with him after asking Sakunosuke Oda.

Oda Sakunosuke is also really reliable, and the things needed for the New Year are prepared in an orderly manner, but the food is the only one.

The old father, who has not yet lost confidence in his cooking skills, enthusiastically bought recipes and ingredients, ready to try to make New Year's dishes.

And then... horrible.

The huge blow made Oda Sakunosuke understand that he only deserves toast a toast and fry an egg roll. It is amazing that he can make curry, and more in-depth cuisine is a test for those who eat it.

"Really, buy it and eat it at home."

In Oda Sakunosuke's seemingly upright face, but actually feeling weak in his heart, Senriyu spoke earnestly.

"I will make soba noodles for New Year's Eve at night."

"I think……"

Oda Sakunosuke wanted to struggle.

"Last year was the first time I did it that's why, this year I will definitely..."

Before he could finish speaking, the children who were still competing for the best handwriting all looked up at Oda Sakunosuke and said in unison.

"Odasaku, you should rest!"

It is enough to have the lessons of last year!

"Really, you don't need to work so hard!"

The quick-witted Shinji immediately started making excuses.

"That's right, Odasaku, you usually work so hard, how can I let you cook!"

Even if he eats curry every day, he doesn't want to eat other things made by Odasaku!

"That's right! Shinji is right!"

The boss Xingsuke reacted and immediately helped.

"Odasaku, you can rest, we will help Chisato-san!"

"That's right, we'll help anyone!"

Amidst the echoes, the meaning of all family members is very obvious.Oda Sakunosuke smiled helplessly.

Don't just react like that because of that accident, he still practiced afterwards.

Oda Sakunosuke felt the need to rectify his name.

"Actually I think..."

"No, no, Odasaku, you should rest!"

Chisato got up and pressed Oda Sakunosuke's shoulder, blinked at him, and teased him briskly.

"This is public opinion."

So cooking is prohibited, just wait and eat this year~
