Real wine teaches you how to learn to paddle

"Conan, why don't you seem to be in a good mood today?" In the happy snack bar at noon, Qianben Xiaxi handed him a cup of homemade lemon tea and asked with a smile, "What's the matter, didn't you sleep well at night?"

Is it because of you?

Conan looked up listlessly at Qianben Xiaxi, took a sip of the iced special lemon tea, felt the sour and cold taste stimulated the taste buds, and then felt a little alive.

"Well, I didn't sleep well." Conan heheed twice, but in fact he didn't sleep much at all.Been working on that damn poll all night.

Who on earth thought of this hateful activity? It caused him to sleep badly now, and even his hands are weak. It must be due to muscle strain.

"Did you go out with your brother Subaru yesterday?" Qianben Xiaxi looked at Conan with a funny look, the huge dark circles under his eyes. "He doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, and he almost overbaked the bread."

Conan:  …

Waves, he also wants to wave, can he wave?Isn't it just to give you a surprise?It's too much to watch him joke like this!

Conan drank lemon tea silently, and decided not to talk to this little friend, it was too unloving.

Soon, he drank the lemon tea to the bottom, and Conan curled his lips, feeling that he still had something to say.

"Would you like another drink?" Qianben Xiaxi said with a smile.

"No more, I don't want to drink anymore." Conan half-mooned his eyes, he felt that sometimes a little dignity is needed to be a human being.

So he watched Qianben Xiaxi put a new cup in front of him, and said cutely, "Thank you sister Xiaxi."

Then I continued biting the straw and shuffling, summer and iced lemon tea are a perfect match.

"By the way, sister Xia Xi, how many days have you not updated your novel?" Conan thought of something and suddenly asked, "You know that popular author voted, right? If you become No.1, you will hold a signing event Are you not afraid of being surrounded by readers to urge you to update?"

"Ahem, do you know about this vote?" Qianben Xiaxi glanced at Conan, wondering why he suddenly mentioned this.But he still shrugged and said casually, "Don't worry, how can I compare to Mr. Kudo Yusaku, it won't be me, you think too highly."

Conan glanced at her in surprise, and then realized that the other party seemed to be a fan of his father, and he bought [-] magazines on purpose, just to vote for his father.

Thinking of Conan made my scalp tingle, because after he accidentally told Xiaolan, Xiaolan told Yuanzi about it, and then Yuanzi canceled Xia Xi's vote for his father just to be on the safe side, and bought another Ten thousand magazines, on the way...

Conan: Mask of Pain.

In other words, after drinking this cup of lemon tea, he will go back to cutting magazines and filling out votes.

Fortunately, he still has friends, and he has called Okiya Subaru, Uncle Mori's first apprentice Amuro Toru, and his second apprentice Wakita Kanezuri to go to Suzuki's house to help.

There is strength in numbers, and I believe they will be able to complete the ten thousand plans soon.

At this time, Qianben Xiaxi was also a mask of pain. She didn't sleep well last night, so she stayed up until midnight to fill in the votes for Gin Jiu.And still fill in my own pseudonym, which is simply too shameful.

Fortunately, this body is very healthy, and staying up late occasionally is nothing.As for voting for the author of 'White to Glowing', what does it have to do with Qianben Xiaxi? Thinking about it this way, I don't feel any shame.

Of course, this matter also directly led to the vacation she finally got, but in the end she couldn't update the code words.

In short, she feels a little sick when she sees this magazine now.

In fact, she really wanted to selfishly fill in all the ballots for Yusaku Kudo last night, but Gin had obviously been staring at this matter, and it was too easy to be noticed.After all, if the number of votes is publicized and the votes she swiped do not match the actual ones, she can see what she has done at a glance.

So Qianben Xiaxi held back in the end, not impulsive.

She just secretly swiped twice as many votes as Gin voted for her and gave it to Mr. Yusaku Kudo.

Originally, her popularity was not comparable to that of the other party, so she could use as much gin as she wanted, which would cancel each other out.What's more, she doubled the amount for insurance, so she should be sure.

"Sister Xia Xi, you are actually very good." Conan whispered, "Your novel is very good to read, that Yusaku Kudo is just old and took advantage of it. If he is a newcomer like you, his popularity It’s definitely not as good as yours! So when will you update it!”

"Ahem, when I'm free..." Qianben Xiaxi smiled, she really doesn't have time now!Now she is afraid that Gin will ask Vodka to send another [-] copies, and she will be busy for another two days, and then get [-] votes for Mr. Kudo Yusaku again.

Really, her wallet is crying.Although she is no longer short of money, but there are so many shops on the map that need her to light up and unlock, the money is not enough to spend.

"Aren't you free now?" Conan Banyueyan retorted. If the signing is held at that time, someone will beat him up. It's not his fault.But when he thought about Qianben Xiaxi's strength, he felt that there was nothing to worry about.

"I've been busy for the past two days." Qianben Xiaxi sighed, "Don't you have to vote for Mr. Yusaku Kudo? I also filled out the tickets all night yesterday, and I just packed them up and sent them away today. After working all day and all night, my hands are all gone." It’s a bit soft, so I can’t type anymore. And I’m thinking about buying another [-] copies if it’s not enough...so I really don’t have time these few days.”

"Don't..." Conan was taken aback and almost slipped his tongue.

But goodbye, he's about to vomit, if you give his dad another [-] votes, he'll have to do it again, it's endless.

"Don't what?" Qianben Xiaxi looked at him strangely, did Conan tell her not to vote for Mr. Kudo Yusaku, his father?

"Well... I mean, don't be too tired. With this skill, it's better to code. The flowers I've been waiting for are all gone. When will you update." Conan added after reminding, "Trust Yuu Kudo Mr. Zuo must have received your sincerity, so there is no need to swipe his ticket.”

Qianben Xiaxi blinked, which means that Conan told his father about her ticket purchase, and then his father said no?

But the conscience of heaven and earth, she is really just brushing votes for herself.

No, she did find someone to give Kudo Yusaku [-] votes.

Hey, it really is the lack of sleep that causes the brain to slow down, and the voting thing made her head dizzy.

"Well, I'll try my best not to vote." Qianbenxia Xi dealt with Conan with a smile. This matter still depends on whether Vodka will send another [-] copies. She said it doesn't matter.

Conan:  …

Try not to vote, but do you still want to vote?

Sister Xia Xi likes his father so much?What's so good about that man, really.

Conan complained about it, but he was thinking about whether to give her a novel signed by his father on her birthday.

Conan pursed his lips, and really wanted to say that you must never vote, and if you vote for him again, you will not be able to survive this day.But to give the other party a surprise in order to keep it secret... Well, of course, it may also be shocking, so I may still swallow these words in my stomach.

"Sister Xia Xi, I've finished drinking. Thank you for your lemon tea." Conan jumped off the chair and was about to say goodbye. There was no other way. It was the time agreed with Yuanzi. He had to pick up his little friend Okiya Subaru and go to Yuanzi's house together. She votes. "Then I'll go with Subaru-san."

"Yeah, you guys go." Qian Benxia Xi yawned and felt a little sleepy, so he waved his hands casually, "You guys go, have fun."

Okiya Subaru asked her for leave today because she wanted to take Conan out to play.Qianben Xiaxi thought that the two of them were going to discuss some other plan to deal with the organization, and nodded in agreement.

She didn't want to send Okiya Subaru and Conan away, but she received a leave message from Amuro Toru and Wakita Kennori.

Strange, is there any large-scale mission in the organization recently that requires Bourbon and Rum to go out together?

But she doesn't care, she is a very good boss, so she agreed without thinking.

At this time, in the happy sushi restaurant, Toru Amuro and Rum looked at the phone and sighed in unison.

Why is the boss of Asti not acting like a boss at all, why did they approve their leave so easily?

If it is not approved, they will have an excuse not to help get the bloody vote!

Rum twitched the corner of his mouth, forget it, it was just collecting information.

So he gave Bourbon a wink, and the other party immediately understood, closed the store door, and drove away.

……

After closing the shop at night, Qianben Xiaxi finally had time to sit down and rest.So she opened her store map, and after lighting up the two stores again with the turnover of the past two days, she looked at the map of Tokyo and rarely showed a satisfied smile.

Her stores have now expanded to dozens of places in Tokyo.

Just in this short period of time, like a snowball, the Happiness Group is growing little by little.

Anyone who has played this kind of business game knows that it was very difficult at first, and the turnover of only one store was not enough to support the coins she needed to upgrade.But after this period is survived and a virtuous circle is formed, it will develop rapidly.

This is the same as real business, everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as the first pot of money is transferred, money begets money, and money begets money, it will become much easier.The speed of expansion is very fast, from one store to ten stores, and then to one hundred and one thousand.The process in between is actually very fast.

It's like you find a new delicious milk tea shop, and after waiting for a while, you are surprised to find that its chain stores are everywhere.

I hope she can quickly fill the entire map, Qianben Xiaxi closed the map interface with satisfaction, and was ready to go to bed.But unexpectedly, her mobile phone by the bed rang suddenly.

Qianben Xiaxi raised her eyebrows, reached out and took a look.Oh, it's her boss.

"Hey, what do you want from me?" She lay down on the bed after connecting, and couldn't help yawning again. "I finished the task you gave me this morning."

Gin sneered, it was done, but he received a bunch of complaint calls.

Well, let Rum, Bourbon, and Belmode all go out to vote for that author, it's really a big face.

But he couldn't talk about this matter, and Qin Jiu felt very upset.

"You know it's the task I entrusted to you, why do you need someone else?" Qin Jiu snorted coldly, "Don't you have any hands yourself?"

"No, why can't I ask others for help?" Qian Ben Xia Xi was speechless, what happened to Gin Jiu today, and he found fault for no reason.

"I don't want others to know." At the other end of the conversation, Gin Jiu's deep voice came again, "This is a private matter."

The implication is that this is not the task of the organization, so I don't want other people in the organization to know.

Qianben Xiaxi was taken aback for a moment, and finally came to his senses, and said with a smile, "So it was Belmode that day, right? Why, did she ask you to complain to me?"

Qin Jiu sneered, "It's good that you know."

It seems that Asti really found Belmode, Gin hooked the corner of her mouth, thinking that her observation ability is not bad.

"Hey, who asked her to pretend to be my shop assistant." Qianben Xiaxi lay on the bed, raised her long legs and said leisurely, "I just wanted to cheat Bourbon, but I didn't expect her to deliver it to my door, so don't blame me."

Qin Jiu didn't answer, Qian Ben Xia Xi followed suit and said, "But I didn't say that you asked me to swipe the ticket, so it doesn't count as revealing your privacy, Qin Jiu."

"Do you think she just called me to complain about you?" Qin Jiu said disdainfully, "That woman didn't want to test me."

Of course, it's not just Belmode, Rum thinks that way too.People in the organization are not good.

"What stupid reason are you looking for?" Gin Jiu's dissatisfied voice reached her ears through the receiver again.

"Okay, has my crazy fan base collapsed?" Qianben Xiaxi smiled indifferently, "Who told you to buy so many copies? If it's just a little bit, my reason is completely valid. Perfect. Yusaku Kudo's novels, who doesn't like to read them, right?"

After Qianben Xiaxi finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, and said again, "By the way, Gin, don't send me any more. I almost vomited when I saw this broken magazine recently. If you dare to send it to me again, I will send it to you." Recommend Bourbon to let him read this novel, do you think he will think of you when he sees 'Little Angel Gin'."

Gin:  …

He shouldn't have asked Asti to check the author's identity for him in an easy way.After all, it was his own private matter, and it was inconvenient to use the organization's hackers, so he asked his subordinates to investigate.

Unexpectedly, he was threatened in reverse now, Qin Jiu sneered again and again.

It's really the style of that bottle of sparkling wine. Thinking of this gin, he said coldly, "Don't worry, I've already let other people get it."

Well, that's good... Qian Ben Xia Xi just breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Wait, does Gin mean he's got someone else to do it?Does this mean that he spent money to pay for himself again?

So she quickly asked, "How much did you brush again?"

"Why, are you curious?" Qin Jiu asked without answering.

"Of course, after all, I followed this matter from beginning to end, so I naturally have to be curious." Qian Benxiaxi blinked and said again, "I didn't expect you to really love that author, Gin Jiu."

Gin:  …

"If you can't speak, then don't say it." Thinking of the author, Qin Jiu wanted to shoot him, so stop disgusting him.So he smiled maliciously, "Of course I love her so much that I can't wait to lock her in a small dark room to code for me day and night, so... I voted another [-] votes."

Qian Ben Xia Xi was shocked by that perverted words, what the fuck, this guy Gin Jiu actually wanted to lock her up in the little black room, it's unreasonable.

She is just a newer and more Buddhist, as for it!

Anyway, don't let him do what he wants.With tears in his eyes, Senbon Xiaxi placed another order and voted another [-] votes for Mr. Kudo Yusaku.

Now cancel each other out, there is no problem, right? !

Don't ask her why she doesn't vote twice anymore, she really has no money!Just spent all the upgrade shop.Moreover, she still has self-knowledge. There is really more than a star and a half difference between her popularity and Kudo Yusaku.

Gin invested [-], and she voted [-], which is really very safe.In fact, she invested [-] yuan to offset it, which was enough.

I beg the timeline to jump quickly, she really doesn't want to mess with this thing anymore.

If possible, she really wanted to go to the magazine to complain!

Maybe it was her prayers that worked. When she woke up the next morning, Qianben Xiaxi realized that half a month had passed.

Because the Didan Primary School diagonally across from her started, it skipped directly from the summer vacation to the first day of school.

"Sister Xia Xi, who do you think will be the popular author of this issue?" At noon, Conan mysteriously ran over from school to eat.

"Oh, are you talking about the voting?" Qianben Xiaxi's eyes lit up, "When will the result come out, but do you have to ask, it must be Mr. Yusaku Kudo."

"Today, a new issue will be released today. I guess we will find out in the afternoon?" Conan coughed twice, "Didn't you think it would be me?"

"Ah?" Qianben Xiaxi narrowed his eyes, what does Conan mean?But as expected, today is the release date of the next issue, and the timeline really didn't skip important events.

"It's because you haven't updated in half a month, aren't you worried?" Conan asked sincerely.

"There's nothing I can do about it..." Whoever made the timeline jump for half a month, she would be a ghost if she could change it every day. "I'm a little worried, but once I think of Mr. Kudo Yusaku around, I don't worry at all."

Not only that, but the [-] votes she cast was the main reason for her peace of mind.

Conan curled his lips. If sister Xia Xi knew that his father was the worst one and voted more than Yuanzi, I don't know how the other party would react.

Probably, he never wanted to read his father's book again.

"By the way, Sister Xia Xi, are you free tonight?" Conan asked suddenly, "Sister Xiaolan and Sister Yuanzi asked me to help you arrange an evening party for you. They came to find you after class."

"Yes, why did they suddenly think of having a party?" I don't know why it was so mysterious to invite her to a party.But thinking of Sonoko's character, he felt normal again.So Qian Ben Xia Xi said casually, "That's fine, wait for them to come."

"Yeah, then I'll go first, sister Xia Xi." Conan said and ran out without looking back.

……

At this time, on the other side, inside the Porsche 356A, Vodka smiled while holding the magazine in his hand, "Brother, I got it in advance."

"Hmm." Gin glanced at the vodka while smoking a cigarette, "Look at the result."

"Okay brother." Vodka was also very excited at the moment, quickly turned to the last page, and found the voting announcement for 'Your Favorite Author'.

He looked down, and instantly showed a satisfied smile as expected.

"No.1, so white that it glows, haha." Vodka laughed, "As expected of the big brother, she ranks first and is far ahead of Yusaku Kudo, who is second."

"Let me see." Gin reached out for the magazine, and suddenly found that No.1's 'White to Glowing' had 15 votes, while No.2 Yusaku Kudo had [-] votes, and she was ahead by as much as [-] votes.

"I haven't brushed that much." Gin raised the corners of his mouth, "It seems that I'm not the only one who urged the update."

"I see." Vodka understood the meaning of gin in an instant, so he also laughed and said, "Then shall we do it directly on the day of the signing? Should we call Asti to be vigilant?"

"No need." Qin Jiu smiled coldly, "I'm just an author, and I don't need a sniper yet."

In fact, Qin Jiu didn't think about this at all. Didn't he think that snipers were not needed, and he would use a sledgehammer to kill chickens.But... the nature of that bottle of sparkling wine, he didn't want to make any murders on the day of the signing.

"Hey, big brother." Vodka smiled, "I'm really looking forward to that day."

Gin was biting his cigarette, grinning with an evil smile, "Who isn't."

……

At night, Maori Detective Agency.

Qianben Xiaxi came to the party with Xiaolan Yuanzi as promised.

"Happy birthday, Xia Xi~" Yuanzi rushed over and hugged her with a smile, "Look, this is our birthday present for you, please open it and see if you like it~"

Qianben Xiaxi was taken aback, looking at the carefully arranged room, she was suddenly moved, but she didn't realize that today was her body's birthday.

"Thank you, Yuanzi, Xiaolan." Qianben Xiaxi laughed, and looked down at the gift that Yuanzi had just stuffed.

She opened the exquisite wrapping paper bag and found that it turned out to be a magazine.

Qianben Xiaxi took it out to have a look, this is not...

"Congratulations to Xia Xi, you have become the most popular author!" Yuanzi took advantage of her daze, had already taken the magazine and turned to the polling place announced on the last page. "Look, you can hold a signing party, are you happy?!"

"Congratulations, Xia Xi." Xiaolan also smiled and said, "This is the wish of Yuanzi and me, please accept it."

Qianben Xiaxi: ...

Qianben Xiaxi looked at the shining '15 votes' and 'No.1', and the touching smile froze on his face.

Me, thank you all.
