Alien ability is a shared system

Even in the relatively pure literary world, there are invisible gunpowder.

The dispute between the Kanto and Kansai literature factions, the old-fashioned retro and the new westernized ideas...

This kind of dispute can even last longer than a real battle. It is rarely mixed with interests and desires, and it is purely a battle of beliefs.

Literary factions and ideological disputes inevitably also affected the editors of the publishing house. In Zhaowen Publishing House, the two factions with the greatest differences are represented by the editor-in-chief of Haizhizi Literary News, Momozawa Yushu, who attaches great importance to discovering newcomers. Seniority is the most important faction represented by Pai and deputy editor Shimizu.

"When I saw this manuscript, I felt that the author was quite spiritual. Although the writing style is very sophisticated and simple, the structure of the story is still a little immature. But it is this immaturity that fits the novel. a feeling of."

After handing over the manuscript to Ninomiya Mingsa, editor Momozawa explained what happened: "I received the manuscript on Wednesday, and at that time this short story was recommended to me as a newcomer to discover. By the way, after reading the manuscript, I decided to publish it in the next week's "Son of the Sea Literary News"-at that time, I happened to have a good column in my hand that had not been finalized."

"It is indeed a very good novel." At this time, Ms. Mingsa also roughly read the novel of Oda Sakunosuke. If it wasn't for the editor Momozawa, she would be sure that this is a newcomer's work, and perhaps Ninomiya Mingsa would have thought it was a friend. Putting on her vest, she raised her head, "And then? Is there something wrong with that column?"

"Almost." Editor Taoze smiled wryly: "Or, this is the official key point. The column in my hand is really good. I'm not the only one who has ideas about it..."

"So... other editors want to give it to someone else?"

"Yes..." Editor Taoze took out a week-old "Sea Son Literary News" from his briefcase, opened it to the third page, and pointed it out to several people: "This is the column, and Deputy Editor Shimizu recommended it. The author can barely be considered a newcomer—it’s just that the other party is from an academic school and studied under Master Gu Jian. Although the novel is much worse than the one I have, our publishing house has some cooperation with Master Gu Jian..."

Although Editor Momozawa didn't finish his sentence, none of the people present were fools. Although Editor Momoze wanted to use the umbrella, he couldn't harm the interests of the publishing house.

"Then if this novel can't be published in Son of the Sea, where will it be assigned?"

"The novel supplement of "Yokohama Metropolis Daily." Editor Momozawa sighed: "It's also a good platform, but the literary quality can't be compared with the Son of the Sea."

"That's it..." Putting down the manuscript in her hand, Mingsha Ninomiya thought for a while: "I can say a few words to Teacher Gu Jian, and it shouldn't be a problem to postpone it a little bit."

As a complete newcomer, Sakunosuke Oda suffers because he has no seniors in the literary world to stand for him. Although Meisa Ninomiya is a fairy tale novelist, she unexpectedly has a relationship with many seniors. Listening to her, Momozawa The editor showed a relieved expression: "In this way, I can decide to give this recommendation column to the author of Umbrella, and I will trouble the teacher."

"No trouble, I also hope that more potential newcomers will emerge in the literary world." Ninomiya Mingsa took a sip of her coffee and exchanged pleasantries with Editor Momozawa.

Ninomiya Kano, who had been listening to the whole process, did not expect that the matter about the publication of Oda Sakunosuke's novel would turn around again.And the key person in this turning point is his mother.

It's just... quite unexpected.

Nigong Zuo glanced at the time, and it was an hour before the publishing house's off-duty time, so he tugged at the corner of Ms. Mingsha's clothes: "Mom, it's already five o'clock."

"It's already reached this point." Ninomiya Mingsha looked at her watch: "I remember that "Sea Son Literary Newspaper" is published every Monday? Then the electronic file should be sent to the printing factory today at the latest, right?"

"Yes..." Mr. Momozawa wiped off his sweat and hurriedly stood up: "Then I will take my leave first and go to deal with this matter."

"Let me go with you." Ninomiya Mingsha also smoothed the wrinkles on the skirt, then stood up, and said with a smile: "I have cooperated with Mr. Shimizu several times, so I will explain to him Condition."

"This is too much trouble for you."

"It's nothing, Zuo, mom will be back in a while, you wait for me in the coffee shop first, if you are hungry, you can buy some snacks yourself."

After Ninomiya Mingsa and editor Momozawa left, there were only Ninomiya Kanade and Edogawa Ranpo staring wide-eyed after eating a piece of mango cream cake in the booth of the coffee shop.

Knowing that Ranpo Edogawa is a very capable detective, based on intuition and experience, Kanou Ninomiya decided to keep a distance from him.

We must know that most of the creatures like detectives are accident-attracting physiques-either the case comes to the detective, or the detective takes the initiative to find the case. He doesn't want to be involved in the murder of a coffee shop, the disappearance of a dead body in a publishing house, and the like.

Simply Edogawa Ranpo has no interest in him, Mr. Detective is now focusing all his attention on the desserts in the coffee shop, he obediently raised his hand, indicating that he wants to order: "Miss Sawano, please give me another order." A mango pancake!"

But the lady clerk in the coffee shop just came over and handed Edogawa Ranpo a cup of hot water: "Sorry, Mr. Ranpo, President Fukuzawa said that you can only eat one dessert these days, I hope we can Help you control your sugar intake."

"How can a mere tooth decay affect Ranpo-sama. Besides, Ranpo-sama, I still have my order today."

Edogawa Luanbu pushed the boiled water away a little, angrily defended himself, trying to get away with it.

"Mr. Ranpo, I served the cake that lady ordered just now." The clerk said in a helpless tone, "When the tooth decay is cured, you can choose from all kinds of cakes."

How could Edogawa Ranpo not know that she sent the cake?But I just wanted to try it out.

Knowing that even if he took a roundabout policy, he couldn't get what he wanted, Mr. Detective collapsed on the sofa, as if he lost his dream if he lost his second dessert.

Well, I'm definitely not that naive.

Ninomiya Zuo quietly took out his homework from his schoolbag and started to write, certainly not wanting to attract any attention from the troublesome Mr. Detective.

When Meisa Ninomiya and editor Momozawa went to Zhaowen Publishing House together, a call was made to Osamu Dazai who was sitting on the seawall of the port watching crabs.

"Hey—it's you, is it all over?"

The cool sea breeze in summer rolled up the young man's fluffy black hair, blowing away the stuffy air attached to his face because of the bandages. It seemed that there was some pleasant news from the other end of the phone, which made the reputation The Hong Kong black cadres who have always been terrifying couldn't help showing a gentle smile.

"Is that so? That's really great. Sure enough, an excellent novel will definitely get the recognition it deserves."

"Since it has been settled, there is no need to continue that matter."

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Cadre picked up the crab beside him, stretched himself, and jumped off the seawall, with real joy in his eyes.

"Next, let's find Odasaku and eat crab sukiyaki together."
