Bungo common problem

"Zano-kun."

Tanaka handed the tissue to his colleague and asked questions.

"How do you say 'the protagonist is miserable'?"

The colleague, Sawano took the paper and looked at Tanaka suspiciously with red eyes.

"Is the protagonist not miserable?"

"Isn't the protagonist living a happy life in the end?"

"happy life?"

Sawano was even more surprised.

"Tanaka-kun, look again, look carefully, the protagonist is clearly not happy from the bottom of his heart."

Tanaka: ? ? ?

Tanaka looked hesitantly at his colleague who was also surprised, picked up the book again, and decided to read it again in detail.

This time, he read very carefully, even when he was tired in the middle, he didn't even go home and directly borrowed the dormitory of his colleagues to sleep, and continued to read after waking up.

However, until the next day when he had re-read it, he didn't feel that the protagonist was unhappy.Even what he thought was strange at first became very logical, and he couldn't see what was strange.

Isn't this a novel about a protagonist who has struggled and blended into a foreign land?

Walking out of the dormitory to the cafeteria, Tanaka stroked his chin, lost in thought.

So where is the "miserable" that Sawano-kun said?

When I walked to the cafeteria, many people were already eating.Strangely, most of the people were wearing sunglasses even though they were inside the house, and the sound of conversations that seemed to be encrypted could be heard endlessly.

"Have you applied?"

"Applied, I applied for my whole year's vacation!"

"I didn't take a vacation a few months ago, so it happened to be together this time."

"Me too, I remember we are in the same place, let's go together."

Listening to these words, Tanaka suddenly saw a colleague at a table as he walked by.

"Zano-kun."

Tanaka's eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly approached.

At this moment, Sawano is also a member of wearing sunglasses. Rather, here, all people wearing sunglasses will have a tacit feeling in their hearts when they see another person wearing sunglasses.

Why wear sunglasses?It's not because his eyes are red from crying, for fear of letting others see his image.

"Is there something wrong, Tanaka-kun?"

Sawano quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and looked at the other party.

"Regarding the feelings that Sawano-kun said yesterday, I re-watched Teacher Qianli's "Foreign Land" again."

While talking, Tanaka sat across from Sawano and talked freely.

"I did read it carefully this time, but I didn't find what Sawano-kun said about 'the protagonist is miserable'. Instead, I felt that the ending was really good and satisfactory, so I was a little curious about what you said."

As he spoke, he smiled.

"Fans of the same teacher Qianli, let's communicate."

"You said that you...can't see that the ending is miserable, but feel that it is very happy?"

Sawano's eyes under the sunglasses were wide open, he stared blankly at Tanaka's modest smiling face, and couldn't react for a while.

How can anyone think this ending is happy?

"Maybe my understanding is shallow."

Tanaka speaks the truth.

"Because I didn't see it, I wanted to discuss it with Sawano-kun."

"I'll explain it to you!"

Sawano stopped eating immediately, and pushed it aside, took out a copy of "Foreign Land" from behind, and was ready to talk to Tanaka.

Sawano: "Here...here...Tanaka-kun, look here again..."

Tanaka: "But it's not... this... and then..."

The two hold their own opinions and cannot agree with each other.

"Tanaka-kun..."

After he finished speaking from beginning to end, Sawano showed an indescribable expression.

"Tell me the truth, have you lived in downtown Yokohama since you were a child?"

Otherwise, how on earth did you persist in reaching Consummation? ? ?

……

The release of "Foreign Land" set off a wave of homecoming craze. After watching "Foreign Land", countless people would have an urgent desire to go back to their hometown and watch it.

But all of this had nothing to do with Qianli. After she handed over "Foreign Land" to the editor, she fell into a state where she had nothing to do after it was finally over.

"It's the state of a sage who has done all the work, and the whole person has no desires or desires, and the waves are calm."

As Qianli spoke, he complained to himself.

"After all, my place can be regarded as three years without opening, and three years after opening."

"With all due respect, you've opened quite a few times."

In the coffee shop on the first floor, she was sitting across from Akiko Yosano, her purple eyes turned up and down on her body before continuing to speak.

"It's another book in less than three months, are you sure you took a break?"

"Okay, it's better to say that the spirit is actually quite good."

Qianli blinked, showing a relaxed smile, and said the opposite in a high-spirited tone.

"I feel like I can't get a word out!"

With Yosano Akiko: "..."

What's the matter with this feeling of a little pride?

The Armed Detective Agency belongs to the "initial stage" of its establishment. The detective agency with only three people including Fukuzawa Yukichi, the president, is of course impossible to accept all the commissions. While there, Yosano Akiko stayed behind alone.

Although there is nothing to stay behind, and doing nothing is actually quite boring, which also means——

"I said, you haven't been out for a long time, have you?"

Whether he was bored at home writing novels or going downstairs to eat, she had never seen him walk out of this street.Yosano Akiko looked at the clothes that Qianli hadn't changed a few times, and felt a certain feeling in her heart ready to move.

"Commercial Street, are you going?"

That being the case, why not go shopping!Wouldn't it be good to dress up people well and buy some sharp medical equipment by the way?

"I……"

Qianli glanced at his small body with no muscles, then looked up at Yosano Akiko who was about to move, and compared the physical strength gap between the two sides.

In the end, Tie Tie with Miss Sister prevailed.

"I go!"

Who can do the thing of rejecting the young lady?

So, the two of them came to another block.In the beginning, Qianli could still follow the other party closely, reminiscing the feeling of shopping with girlfriends in the past, but later, he felt that something was wrong.

"Do you want to change it?"

Chisato took the fifth set of clothes handed to her by Yosano Akiko, feeling a bit difficult for herself.

"It's enough, I think it's really enough!"

She looked at each other sincerely, trying to widen her eyes full of hints.

"There are enough clothes, we can go over there and have a look."

It's too tiring to change clothes, wouldn't it be nice to have some more delicious food this time!

After confirming that Qianli really didn't want to change, Yosano Akiko could only nod regretfully, and gave up her idea of ​​miraculous Qianli.

"this?"

"I think it's fine!"

"this?"

"I think it's perfect!"

"this?"

"I think……"

Qianli silently glanced at the rubber duck in Yosano Akiko's hand, and said politely.

"We shouldn't need it, right? Or do you want to buy it for Luanbu?"

Put it on the water when you take a bath, and it can make a sound when you pinch it. It seems to be very suitable for random walking.

But... if Akiko used it by herself, there would be a surprisingly cute contrast.

"I thought you wouldn't even refute."

Yosano Akiko raised her eyebrows and put the rubber duck in her hand back to its original position, and said teasingly.

"I almost thought there was something wrong with you when you at least said that and the hat fit me."

"No, it's obviously cute."

Thousands of miles of righteous words.

"Akiko is cuter in Pikachu's hat, and..."

In the middle of speaking, she suddenly stopped, looked past Yosano Akiko, came to a certain place outside, and did not move.

"what happened?"

Yosano Akiko and Yosano Akiko followed each other's line of sight and turned their heads to look at each other, and what came into view was a row of...key chains?

Many kinds are hung together, and the patterns on them are quite cute, which looks like a certain series.

"Crystal."

Qianli looked serious, but Yosano Akiko felt sparkling in those golden eyes.

"I saw something good, let's go over there and have a look!"

Five minutes later, the two returned to the store, and Yosano Akiko watched Qianli briskly put the keychain with the Q version of the big head on the key, thoughtfully.

"So you like this."

How should I put it, all of a sudden, a certain feeling that was still left was poured out, and a more three-dimensional feeling was enriched.

The famous writer actually likes to read comics in private!Surprised and cute feeling.

"I saw a new one last month that was very interesting. I didn't expect to see the surroundings now."

It's not like she doesn't do anything else at home besides writing novels. After all, it's impossible to write novels without stopping, so it's normal to watch anime that has developed a little bit.

Most importantly, she saw a lot that she had never seen before, which was quite fresh.

The two walked around for a long time, and Yosano Akiko was still in good spirits, but looking at Qianli who had obviously lost his eyes due to lack of exercise, he decisively chose to rest.

"Speaking of which, there are fewer people on the street than usual."

In the beverage shop, Yosano Akiko watched with satisfaction at Chisato who had been completely rejuvenated by her outfits, and made a satisfied voice.

"However, there are a lot of new products, which are not bad."

"The words on the street... seem to be true."

Although I haven't been here for a long time, Qianli compared his previous feeling in his heart and found that the flow of people seems to be less dense.

"Maybe it's not a holiday? Or time?"

Qianli touched the new hairpin on his hair, guessing uncertainly.

"It may be accidental, and it will recover after a while."

"That's exactly it."

Yosano Akiko took a sip of cold drink slowly, and explained the reason quite well.

"Mainly because of your latest book."

Because of this, the number of urban population returning to their hometowns has recently increased, and the rural population has skyrocketed.And those who work in other places also took a leave of absence to return to their hometowns and went around the city.

Qianli:? ? ?

"My new book..."

I was taken aback for a moment, and quickly recalled the content in my head, and my face instantly became weird.

"So... have you all gone back to your hometown?"

Although I wrote about the protagonist's integration into a foreign land, other people don't really need it, and the place where there are fewer people can only be homesick.

She tilted her head to look out the window, through the transparent glass, everything outside was clear.

Under the hot to hot summer sun, the streets are still full of people coming and going, people seem to have not changed, they are still walking leisurely or in a hurry.

There should be many people returning to their hometowns in places I can't see, right?So it seems...

"It's a good thing."

She raised her hand and pressed gently on her heart, blinked her eyes in a daze, but finally chose to curl the corners of her lips and show a smile.

"It will be lively again after a while."

It's like the seasons turn, the tide ebbs and flows.The world is a circle, and if you go around, you will return to the original place.

So... can she expect the author of "Hunter x Hunter" in this world, the old thief Fu Jian, to update to the end without playing mahjong?
