The three-dimensional me is incompatible with the paper people

"Sakura" finally had an explosive spread in Yokohama.

Fortunately, Qingque had the foresight to find the wage earner Hatta in advance, so she was much more relaxed.

Of course, Hatta is only responsible for helping Qingque pack books and do some groceries, because this boy is not very good at doing math problems, there is no way, Qingque still has to collect the money himself.

"The shopkeeper is very busy every day."

During the lunch break at noon, Hatta said to Qingque.

Qing Que's face was surrounded by the scarf, and she purred twice for unknown meaning, which was regarded as a response.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and with Qing Que's weak physique, even if she stays in the store, she can still feel the cold wind blowing.It is said that Yokohama occasionally snows in winter, which makes Qingque, who was born and bred in the south, both scared and curious.

I just waited for more than a month, and I didn't wait for the so-called snow.

"Let me help."

Oda Sakunosuke, who arrived on time, saw Qingque's exhaustion, came to the front desk, and consciously took Qingque's place.

If someone helps, of course Qingque will not refuse.

Hatta was a little curious about Oda's identity, but soon got busy again.

The bookstore that used to be deserted is now full of people, all of whom are rushing to recommend best-selling spots.Because repeated replenishment was really troublesome, Qing Que simply piled up the books at the front desk, and put a sign at the door, telling customers that they wanted to buy books at the front desk.

In this way, the efficiency is greatly improved.

Oda is a retired killer after all, and his dexterity is not comparable to that of Qingque and Hatta.He dealt with a group of guests in two or three strokes. Hatta was dumbfounded, and felt unwilling to admit defeat in his heart, and his movements were several degrees faster.

Therefore, Qing Que is the most leisurely person in the entire bookstore.

She took the book, lifted a small bench, found a corner of the bookstore and sat down.

Now is fishing time.

"Oh, the shopkeeper seems to like Sakura very much too."

The guests who lined up to the small corner found Qingque with great precision, and teased when they saw the book in her hand.

"Well, I really like it." There should be no author who doesn't like his own work, right?

Hearing this, the guest looked at the invisible line in front of him, so he squatted down, intending to chat with Qingque.

"Has the shopkeeper seen anything in this book?"

Qingque was slightly surprised.

It is a subtle feeling to be asked by one's own readers what one's work has written.

"Probably because of the improvement of Sakura's self-awareness." Qingque said.

Qing Que's answer made the guests' eyes shine instantly, and even the guests who were queuing up around him paid attention and squatted down.

"Oh, did the little shopkeeper understand? You are indeed a small shopkeeper."

"After all, is it a small shopkeeper? No matter what happens to the small shopkeeper, it's not surprising, right?"

The guests talked in a hurry, but Qing Que was confused.

Qingque: What kind of weird filter do you have for me?

The guests are still discussing and sharing their reading insights to the surroundings.

"I watched a short clip on the recommendation of a colleague, oh, the part where Sakura is in the forest. It's just amazing! I completely brought myself into Sakura, and it felt like I was in the forest."

"Hey, Mr. Yamatori is telling us that people cannot leave the group! Parents, names, and friends are all elements that make up Sakura. Once you leave these, Sakura will no longer be Sakura!"

"Ms. Yamadori is really hardworking! I can't believe how Mr. Yamadori managed to write such thought-provoking words with such gentle brushwork!"

"I actually think that Sakura knew what she was like from the very beginning, and the so-called self-awareness is just being forcibly added to the color by the people around her."

"Huh? What's the matter with you?"

"Isn't it! Yamadori-sensei's words are sad in themselves! No matter how gentle you are, you can't hide Sakura's tragedy! She didn't know who she was at first, and she embarked on a journey to find the answer to who she is. Yes! It’s not so much that Sakura went to find the answer, it’s better to say that the people around pushed Sakura out and forced her to dye the color of her surroundings!”

"...It sounds reasonable."

Their emotions became more and more agitated, and no one noticed Qingque's strange expression.

Qingque: ...It is really embarrassing and shameful to be interpreted by someone in front of one's own work.

It wasn't until the team moved forward that the guests recovered from the intense discussion.It seems that they are going to go back and argue again, and now it is more important to buy books.

Fortunately, they didn't fight in the bookstore, otherwise Qing Que didn't know how it would end.

In the evening, it was time for proofing in the bookstore, and the books piled up at the front desk were sold out.

"Xiaozhi, can you help me see how many books are left in the warehouse?"

Oda nodded, "Okay."

As for his new title, Oda accepted it naturally.

Hatta was also tired all day, holding a glass of water beside Qingque, watching her start to calculate today's income and expenditure.

"Yata, I think I need to teach you math." Qingque said suddenly.

"Eh?" Hatta was stunned.

He looked confused and pointed to his nose, "Me? Mathematics?"

"Yes! As long as you accept all my jobs, I can teach you math and give you a raise, what do you think?"

No matter how you look at this condition, Hatta benefits the most.

He hesitated for a long time, and said, "My brain is not very good, and I am not very good at mathematics. But as long as the small shopkeeper needs it, I will definitely help. There is no need for a salary increase!"

Hatta, who grew up in a slum, knows better than anyone that studying is the most luxurious thing.For them, just getting enough to eat is already a problem.

"No, no matter how poor you are, you can't have poor education, no matter how hard you are, you can't suffer children. You can go back later tonight, and I will teach you mathematics, and you will start practicing tomorrow."

Hatta wanted to struggle again, "I don't need it. I'm not worthy of a small shop teaching me."

And Oda, who has already checked the inventory from the warehouse, expressed his deep agreement with Qingque's words, "I see. No matter how poor you are, you can't have poor education, and no matter how hard you are, you can't suffer children."

"Hata needs to study hard." He said, putting his hand on Hatta's head, "Be serious."

So Hatta was forced to stay and study that night.

I also studied with Oda Sakunosuke.

When Hatta knew that Oda Sakunosuke was only 15 years old, he was in a state of shock!

I can't believe that Oda is only 15 years old.He looks like he has it all!

"Maybe it's because I'm older." Oda sat next to Hatta, and Qingque temporarily arranged test questions for him.

The quiz wasn't difficult, at least for Sakunosuke Oda.If you don't pass the math as a killer, it is very likely that the employer will deduct money as a scammer.

But it was hard for Hatta, after he barely solved the first three questions, he handed in the paper and found a lot of mistakes.

"Xiaozhi really doesn't need it. But you, Hatta, the foundation of mathematics is only Arabic numerals, right?"

Hatta lowered his head in shame.

"Ahem, sorry, I will try my best."

Qingque sighed, and wanted to touch the boy's head, but found that he was not tall enough, so he knew to pat him on the shoulder instead.

"Batian can take advantage of this time to study hard. Even if he doesn't learn much by then, he can teach the sheep's children, can't he?"

The weight on his shoulders hit his heart like a bubble hammer.

Hatta suddenly felt some heat in his eye sockets.

He hastily raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, "Ah, I see, shopkeeper."

In this chaotic era, how lucky is someone who is willing to teach knowledge for free.

In the final analysis, the small shopkeeper is too gentle and kind.

After simply formulating Hatta's teaching plan, Qingque gave Hatta a pack of biscuits and asked him to take them back and distribute them to the sheep's children.

Hatta hugged the biscuit and said goodbye to her under the moonlight.

"Teachers always seem to be more patient and gentle with children," Oda said.

"Because children are hope. Although in this world, children have to bear the sufferings of adults. But they are children after all, and they are at an age where they can grow up freely without worry."

"So, I have no way to change their status quo, at least I have to do something for them, and teaching them knowledge is within my power."

Oda lowered his eyes and looked at the girl beside him.

At this time, the light was dim, and the soft light shone on the girl's fair skin.From this angle, the slender and distinct eyelashes covered her pupils, making it impossible to see her eyes.The raised corners of her mouth seemed to tell others that the girl was in a good mood at this moment.

However, Oda sensed it.

Behind the girl's smile is an unobvious sadness.

She is sad for Hatta, and also for the children who have the same life experience as Hatta.

"It will get better." Under the girl's puzzled gaze, Oda said, "With the teacher's words, everyone will get better."

Qingque was stunned for several seconds.

Afterwards, her smile widened, and all of it bloomed in front of Oda Sakunosuke, "Well, it will get better."

"Ah, speaking of it, the teacher is obviously a child, but he always makes people forget this fact." Oda said as if suddenly awakened.

Qing Que: ... If you don't tell me, I'd forget that I'm only 12 years old now.

"Maybe it's because I'm more mature." Qingque laughed. "Speaking of which, Xiaozhi, do you have any ideas for your novel?"

Unable to prevent mistakes and was urged to change, Oda Sakunosuke's brain fell into a momentary sluggishness.

Facing Qingque's gentle and smiling expression, Oda felt a little guilty.

"Well, I have a little idea, but I don't know how to write the beginning."

"That's it. It doesn't matter, no matter what, you need to prepare well. At the beginning, you should think carefully. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning."

"As long as the beginning is done well, everything after that will fall into place."

Oda Sakunosuke listened carefully to Qingque's words, nodding in agreement from time to time.

"I see, as expected of a teacher." Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help showing a subtle sincerity.

"If you don't understand anything, you can tell me. Maybe I can help you."

"Thank you very much, teacher."

Finally, Oda Sakunosuke also left the bookstore.

Qingque sighed and closed the door of the bookstore.

"It seems that I will receive letters from readers tomorrow, so let's see what they wrote." Qingque said to herself.
