There really are dogs in the river!

Hualichun was stunned.She watched helplessly as the four dog legs raised straight to the sky in the water got closer and closer...

It is said that dogs can swim in the water with dog paddles, but just looking at the dog legs exposed to the water, the dog seems to have no struggle at all, just letting itself drift with the current, and one of the dog legs twitched a few times from time to time.

There was a sound of flapping wings, and Hualichun saw a few black crows flying by, bouncing around the shore, chasing each other, and following the dogs down the river.The crow's small dark eyes were fixed on the dog's leg in the river, and it must have been patiently waiting for the dog's body to wash up and then feast on it.

It's too late to think about it, it's important to save the dog.Hualichun saw the dog floating around, and was about to float to her face along the current.So she gritted her teeth, put down her schoolbag on her shoulders, kicked off her shoes, and jumped into the river with a "plop".

……

After a few minutes.

Hualichun grabbed the river bank with one hand and the dog's nape with the other, and climbed up the bank panting.

My hair, uniform, and skirt were all wet, but my schoolbag and shoes on the shore were still there.Hualichun put the dog on the shore, and only then did she have time to carefully observe the dog she had just fished out of the water.

It was a medium-sized dog, with wet fur a warm sandy color, wet white bandages wrapped around its limbs, and a blue-green gemstone-encrusted Paul bow tie around its neck.

But at this moment, the dog was lying motionless on the ground, dumbfounded.Its eyes were closed tightly, not knowing whether it was dead or alive.

Hualichun knelt down next to Gouzi, a little at a loss.

Is this dog drowning?Are you going to the animal hospital?Thinking of this, she immediately frantically took out money, but only grabbed a few wet thousand-yuan bills and a few coins from the pocket of the dripping pleated skirt.

——This is her wages from part-time jobs. Not only is it soaked, but the total amount does not exceed [-] yen, which is far from enough to save the dog.

And judging by the appearance of this dog, it seems that it is about to die, maybe it can't wait to be sent to the animal hospital...

Hualichun suddenly remembered that first aid measures can also be used for pets.When she thought of this, she immediately adjusted the dog's posture and gave first aid.

After tossing for a long time, the dog suddenly opened its eyes with a "snap".Its honey-colored eyes reflected by the setting sun stared blankly at the sky, and the shadows of the evening clouds were reflected in the pupils.

Seeing that the dog was alive, Hualichun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She straightened up, and only then was she distracted to notice that her uniform was soaked in water, wet and heavy, so she grabbed the pleated skirt and wrung the water out vigorously.

At this moment, a burst of cheerful electronic music suddenly came from the schoolbag she put aside.

Attracted by the sound, Hualichun picked up her schoolbag and opened it, only to find that the handheld in the bag turned on at some point.

[From "Revival!Reminder from Bungo Publishing House: You have obtained Stray Dog [Osamu Dazai]]

[The card library has been updated]

"... Dazai Osamu?"

With the handheld in his hand, Hualichun couldn't help but look back at the dog in the water he had just rescued.

So, Osamu Dazai is the dog's name?

At this time, Dazai Inu, who had been dumbfounded just now, finally stood up unsteadily.There was still a bit of daze in his eyes, but the daze shattered instantly after he looked down at his dog's paw, and his pupils shrank sharply.

In the next second, Dazai Inu suddenly took a run-up and ran towards the river.His figure leaping high towards the river was deeply burned into Hualichun's astonished eyes as he faced the setting sun.

At that moment, everything seemed to be still, only Gouzi's incomparably agile figure coincided with the burning sunset, turning into a world-famous painting, which remained in Hualichun's heart forever.

The girl opened her eyes wide in astonishment, the golden-green pupils shone slightly by the setting sun.

Just hearing a "plop", Dazai Inu jumped into the river, made a drowning sound of "gruff beep beep beep", and floated down the water again like a piece of wood.

——This dog is so doggy, it actually jumped into the water while she was carrying the bag!

Hualichun was taken aback, and ran over quickly.

……

Ten minutes later, Hualichun, out of breath, circled the Dazai dog with one hand, and climbed back to the shore.

This dog doesn't seem normal.

Hualichun knew very well that if he let down his vigilance, the dog would definitely enter the water again.So she stared at Dazai dog very vigilantly, not daring to relax at all.

Compared with Hualichun, Dazai Inu, who was fished out of the water twice, seems to be in good health, but a certain kind of low air pressure is shrouded in his body, even the tail is drooping, and the whole dog has a kind of free spirit. The breath of the world.

Anyway, let's take this guy back to the publishing house first.

Hualichun put on her shoes, carried her schoolbag, and left the river dam with Dazai Dog.

The glow of the setting sun had gradually dimmed.One person and one dog walked on the trail covered with wet grass by the river, stepping on their own shadows with every step.

The evening wind blew, blowing Huali's wet purple hair half dry.

Although there was a Dazai dog beside him, at this moment, Hualichun felt a familiar emotion that he had felt countless times in the past ten years.

lonely.

Thinking of this, Hualichun couldn't help but turned to look at the Dazai dog beside him.

Compared with her, for some reason, Dazai Inu feels even more lonely.He walked forward step by step unhurriedly, but it seemed as if he was stepping on the border between this world and the next world.

——Why does a wild dog give people such a strong sense of dissociation?

Hualichun felt that since she signed the document to inherit the publishing house, everything around her has become abnormal.

Just as she was thinking in a daze, a clear voice suddenly came from a distance: "Ah, here it is!"

"Xiao Chun!"

Looking in the direction of the sound, Hualichun saw a red-haired boy in a western-style uniform waving at her at the intersection ahead, and then ran towards her.

"Tanjiro?" Huali Jun could not help but stop.

The boy ran all the way to Hualichun, and then stopped.His short dark red hair swayed slightly with his movements, the flower earrings on his earlobe made a soft knocking sound, and his clear eyes revealed the warmth of charcoal fire in winter.

When he came close, Tanjiro Kamado saw the wet clothes and half-dry hair on Jun Huali's body, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise: "What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"It's nothing." Facing Kamado Tanjiro's worry, Huali Jun couldn't help feeling a little warm in his chest, "I just rescued him in the river."

Following Hanarashi Jun's gaze, Kamado Tanjiro saw Dazai Inu beside him.When his eyes fell on Dazai Inu, he was a little surprised and sniffed it lightly.

After noticing Zamon Tanjiro's small movements, Huali Jun's expression froze suddenly: "Tanjiro, how are you?"

"I can smell the sadness on his body." Kamado Tanjiro also said with a solemn expression, "If it is expressed in human language, it would be 'Why save me? My heart is dead'."

"..."

Huali Chunxin's childhood sweetheart Tanjiro Zaomen has a very sensitive sense of smell. He can not only smell all kinds of tiny smells, but can even distinguish the emotions of humans and even animals through his sense of smell.According to Kamado Tanjiro, it seems that the human body secretes different hormones and substances when experiencing different emotions, resulting in subtle differences in body odor.

Anyway, since Kamado Tanjiro said so, there must be nothing wrong.

She silently glanced at Gouzi, said nothing, but turned to Tanjiro Kamado, "Tanjiro, why are you here?"

"Because you didn't come to school today, and you took time off from work. I'm still a little worried." Tanjiro Kamado looked at Jun Hanagi worriedly, "Didn't you say before that suddenly a lawyer came and asked you to inherit the inheritance of your parents? huh? How about that?"

"It's a little troublesome. Anyway, we have to work hard." Hualichun nodded, and asked again, "I'm off work today, how is the baking room? Are uncles and aunts busy?"

As an orphan, if he wants to go to school like an ordinary child, the scholarship applied by the orphanage is not enough.The reason why Hualijun was able to study all the way to high school was because she worked part-time in the bakery of Kamado Tanjiro's house.

"Hmm! Nezuko and I have already helped Mom and Dad finish the work together!" Kamado Tanjiro raised a bag in his hand, "This is the leftover bread from the sale, and Mom told me to bring it to you. "

Hualichun took the bag.When your fingers touch the plastic bag, you can feel the residual temperature of the bread through the packaging.The warmth that hit her face was so heavy that she couldn't speak.

The Zaomen family knew that it was not easy for Hualichun to live alone, so they not only gave her a higher hourly wage than an equivalent job, but also always gave her a big bag of pastries to take home after her part-time job.

Although they always said that these pastries were not well-made or leftovers in order to let Hualichun accept them with confidence, but the ones they gave her were all baked golden and fluffy, just out of the oven.

Hualichun is grateful from the bottom of her heart, and she tries to do more work when she is working part-time. Cleaning and cleaning toilets that are not within her scope of duties will be done with all her strength.This is also her way of repaying the Zaomen family.

The loneliness in the sunset just now has been completely melted away by the bag of bread in my hand.

***

With the bread sent by Dazai Inu and Kamado Tanjiro, Hanagarashi went around to the school dormitory to pick up some daily necessities, and then returned to the publishing house.

The little money that was wet in the pocket of her skirt was spent by her on the way to buy dog ​​food.

Along the way, Hualichun thought as he walked, and he had already thought about the next arrangement.

Originally, Huali lived in a cheap school dormitory, but now the small building of the publishing house also needs to pay various fees every month, so she decided to move out of the dormitory immediately and live in the publishing house, so that she can save money. Pay a fee.

However, the combined amount of current tuition fees, living expenses, and publishing house expenses is probably beyond Hualichun's ability.For this, she must earn more income.Either increase working hours, or apply for more grants or loans.Otherwise, the tuition fee for the next semester will be a problem.

Thinking of this, Hualichun took out her mobile phone, found out the email address of the life teacher Yoshiyuki Tomioka, and sent an email asking about the bursary.

After sending the email, just as she was about to put away her phone, a rush of phone ringing suddenly rang.

——The voice came from the phone on the desk next to it.

Who will call Hoshinosha?

After hesitating for a while, Hualichun still connected the phone, and heard a strange voice coming from the phone.

"I'm very sorry for the sudden call. Are you Miss Huali Jun?"

"Yes. May I ask who you are?"

"I'm sorry. I'm Ken Miyazaki, the editor of the editorial department of "Monthly Girls." The other party's voice was a little hoarse, revealing a bit of exhaustion that couldn't be concealed. "I used to talk to the former Hoshinoshasha at the publishing party in the past. The eldest couple met once, and were taken care of. Please forgive me."

Was it his parents' past industry peers?Hualichun was a little curious: "Thank you."

"...I heard that Hoshinosha was going to transfer to a high school student who was related to the former president, so I took the liberty to call." Gongqian continued, "Although it is impolite to say this, but if Hoshinosha is right If you cause a burden, I can help you contact the acquisition."

"Eh?"

Hualichun didn't expect Gongqianjian to say such a thing, and was a little stunned for a moment.

"Presumably you already know that Hoshinosha used to be one of the largest publishing houses in the industry, but in recent years the situation of Hoshinosha has been declining, and now it is on the verge of bankruptcy. The former president and his wife have been working hard for this, but with little success. "

On the other end of the phone, although the voice of Gongqian Jian was tired, he still said in an orderly manner, "I used to be a reader of Hoshinosha in the past, and I don't want to see Hoshinosha disappear completely. But for you, the most important thing right now is Your studies and running the current Hoshino Club will hardly bring you any benefits, and will even cause a huge burden."

"If you sell Hoshinosha to another agency with rich experience in the industry, you may be able to revive the reputation of Hoshinosha. Of course, I am not talented. I have been under the care of the former president and his wife, and now I have accumulated a little experience in the industry. It should be It can help you entrust Hoshino Club to a suitable buyer, and take advantage of Hoshino Club's past achievements to increase the purchase price as much as possible. After Hoshino Club is acquired, you don't need to think about financial issues in life anymore."

"It might be too offensive to say that, but right now, in my opinion, that's the best way to go about it."

After Gongqianjian finished speaking, Hualichun already understood his plan.

If there is no Gojo Satoru's words, the arrangement of Gongqian sword is indeed the best.Hualichun is just a 16-year-old high school student who can't take care of himself, let alone run the current Hoshino Club.

But now she has only one way to go to revive the Hoshino Club.

Although she has never met her parents, Huali Chun vaguely senses that there are reasons for everything her parents do.Since her mother escaped from the Chanyuan home, she also intends to believe in her mother's choice.

"Thank you for your suggestion, Mr. Miyamae. But I don't intend to sell Hoshinosha."

After a few seconds of silence, Huali Jun said firmly: "Mr. Gongqian may not be clear, the original president is my parents. I want to inherit the legacy of my parents, revive Hoshino Club, and let Hoshino Club return to the past. brilliant."

Gong Qianjian on the other end of the phone was stunned: "I'm sorry, it's the president's daughter... I didn't know that the president and his wife of Hoshino Club have children..."

"I only found out when I was approached by a lawyer for the first time a while ago." Hualichun said quickly, "In the past I always thought I was an orphan. But now that I know that my parents are the president of Hoshino Club, I don't want to Give up Hoshinosha!"

"...But now, Hoshinosha doesn't even talk about editors and staff, and it doesn't even have a signed writer." Gongqianjian said after a pause, "The writer is the foundation of the publishing house. If you can't find a writer, There is no way to talk about publications."

"I will find it!" Hualichun clenched his fists, "No matter what, I will find the best writers and the best works, and let the name of Hoshinosha resound throughout the country!"
