Tokyo Girlfriend Illustrated Book

The initial publicity was just gossip like "I have a friend", which was spread on the Internet that Kyosuke Hojo had a new work. Afterwards, familiar newspapers and magazines published an interview with Hojo Kyosuke to talk about the new work...

After signing the contract with the publishing house and confirming the publication, in just a few days, preparations for the release and publicity went hand in hand. New publicity methods were used every day, the rhythm was tight, and it became more intense day by day. Not to mention being a fan of Hojo Kyosuke, even Sayaka from Nara called Mitsuha to ask if she had bought any new books.

Today, as soon as the poster of the new book was released, fans screamed with excitement. Yingli's painting style is already delicate and gorgeous, and it complements each other even more when used on such a realistic poster. There are three posters in total, that is, three murder cases. The face of each protagonist is hidden in the darkness. All that can be seen is the elegant black suit and the shining silver cuffs on the wrists. If one had ignored the judge waiting to be slaughtered on the ground, one would have thought it was a noble attending a ball.

These posters are placed at the entrance of the bookstore, just like the signboard at the entrance of the National Bunraku Theater. The protagonist does not look like a murderer, but like the protagonist who invites the audience to enjoy his own play. He is mysterious and elegant, constantly attracting passers-by to enter the bookstore and ask questions. The Internet is also occupied by these posters. Personal homepages, avatars, dynamic pictures... are all replaced by murder posters.

What became popular at the same time as the posters were the lines that appeared on every poster:

[This time, are you satisfied with my trick? 】

While this sentence continues to appear on major social platforms, Google Trends is also rising sharply, and it has also become an absolute hit on Yahoo.

This sentence seems to have magic power, and it got into people's brains as soon as it appeared.

In school, a boy with a weak hand would snap his hand and attack his classmate's buttocks lying on the railing at the expense of his red and swollen palms. When being chased and beaten, he would say "Oh~~This time, you are satisfied with my trick." Yet? 】

After the stupid sister ate the dorayaki that her sister queued for three hours to buy, she said, "This time, are you satisfied with my trick?" 】

A boy with pimples on his face nervously sent a confession text message to a female classmate he had a crush on for a long time. After receiving the question mark, he quickly said, "This time, are you satisfied with my trick?" 】, stepped into the abyss of social death, but fortunately the female classmate happened to be a die-hard fan of Mr. Hojo, so she generously ignored the confession and began to forcefully recruit the great teacher Hojo. When the boy saw that the goddess was actually because of Mr. Hojo After telling himself so many words, he was immediately moved and swore that Teacher Hojo would be his only recommendation in this life.

Someone posted his own death obituary directly on SNS. After his friend couldn't get through on the phone and rushed to his house, he playfully said, "This time, are you satisfied with my trick?" ], and then had to empty his wallet to apologize.

…

In the age of entertainment to death, even a cat can have tens of millions of followers, and a magical word can even create a carnival feast.

What really triggered this sentence was that the entertainment industry joined this carnival. At first, an actor from a low-quality third-rate TV series saw that this sentence was so popular on the Internet, so he came forward with the idea of ​​​​beating it twice. To catch up on the popularity, I didn’t expect that a TV series that no one paid attention to would actually attract a lot of attention.

"Satisfied? I'm satisfied with your size! The protagonist escaped from the garbage tunnel and fell into the garbage truck to save a dog's life. He didn't just kick the garbage truck away and kill the villain behind it? If I were the director, I would kill the editor first and then kill him. you!"

"Satisfied, I'm so satisfied. A dozen villains with heavy firepower can't beat the protagonist with a small pistol? Is this a plot that anyone can come up with? My boogers are smarter than you."

"..."

The netizens who came excitedly to follow the entry took a big mouthful of snow, and each one spoke more pleasantly than the other. Of course, there were also some who were friendlier:

"The protagonist can't do last-minute damage if he overthrows someone? Sure enough, IQ is directly proportional to appearance. How did this guy get into the main role? Oh, it turns out that the total investment is only three million. I'm sorry to misunderstand you. This is indeed three million. Millions of tricks, thank you to the screenwriter.”

"I advise all members of the crew to buy Mr. Hojo's two novels and read them immediately. Maybe it can save your poor brains."

Netizens were just having fun at first, but it became boring after the excitement was over, but this thirty-second-tier starlet shrewdly found a good place for the majority of netizens to vent their emotions.

In this way, a huge amount of wealth fell on the crew. The producer who was working in the company was confused when he heard that colleagues from other departments called to inform him that the video store was asking for CD purchases. After finding out what happened, he immediately rushed to the bookstore to tell Hojo. I bought all of Kyousuke's works. The actors who were doing odd jobs were summoned from various places. Each of them took a group photo holding a copy of "The Devotion of Suspect For once, are you satisfied with my trick? 】

The voice of the netizen who was still scolding stopped briefly.

"Good guy, this is your trick, right?"

"It's bad, I became an accomplice."

"It's really humiliating for a three-million-dollar crew to hire a producer like you."

The public opinion was reversed in two levels in an instant. It was originally just a behavior of a small star to take advantage of the popularity, but now it has become a marketing plan of the crew. This time it really became a trick that was made by heaven. At least netizens are happy again. The crew was also happy. The low-quality TV series that could only slowly recover its costs through CD sales and other places now had TV stations contacting it in just a few hours. The small star who posted the dynamic at the beginning was suddenly invited to a bunch of equally low-quality TV series.

Everyone wants to take advantage of the popularity!

No one can refuse to take advantage of the popularity.

Seeing that such a rubbish crew and a small star can get such a big benefit, how can others resist? What's more, this is the popularity of a noble mystery novel in the noble literary world. You must know that these serious literatures usually look down on male and female actors, voice actors, singers, and other messes. In the past, a mystery novel wanted to change a movie. In order to win the favor of the original author in order to compete for a role, a female star confessed affectionately on a variety show that her favorite book was this one. As a result, as soon as the program was broadcast, the mystery novelist directly asked and scolded, asking if you can understand it, then you like it.

This is not because the mystery novelist is arrogant, but he has to do it. Think about it, when participating in the writer's salon and communicating with the literary masters. What others are like, the chairman of the Sanjin Group exchanges works with me, the Queen of England invites me to give a speech, and when it comes to me, it is indeed that the female star likes my book very much.

Although the masters like to go to the flower street, I am afraid that they will immediately burst into laughter, "Hahaha, it turns out that your book can only attract actors", and they will lose face.

And now, they can actually take advantage of the popularity of the literary world so openly, and it is the topic of "Heisei Fengliu" who is considered to be the most promising new century literary giant and unparalleled in talent. It is hard to say what the new work of Mr. Hojo will be, but the old book "The Devotion of Suspect X" will be adapted into a movie 100%. If you are lucky enough to be valued by that person, it is not a dream to rise to fame immediately.

So all the big stars came out and imitated the pranks of the netizens before and started [This time, are you satisfied with my trick? ]. You have to know that traffic is a thing, and there is only so much traffic. If others eat more, you eat less. If two stars with the same number of fans, a gets the popularity and b doesn't, then a's attention will instantly surpass b. This is the kidnapping of the traffic era. If you don't want to fall behind, you can only join the carnival.

So this line, which was already hot, became more and more [inflamed], and it was so hot that Hojo Kyosuke kept hearing this sentence in the class, and his scalp was numb with embarrassment. What's more terrible is that Sakura is having a lot of fun.

When Hojo Kyosuke was off get out of class, he was sitting in his seat and replying to the news from Xisaki and the publishing house on his mobile phone, but suddenly his eyes were covered by a pair of small hands, and then his head was sandwiched between two soft balls.

"Guess who I am?" A female voice full of vitality came from behind.

Is there any need to guess? The smell of sober dew, who else can it be except my Sakura? Hojo Kyosuke thought subconsciously.

But the next second he found something wrong. Although Sakura was well developed, the size and softness of her breasts were not so amazing. Hojo Kyosuke didn't need to think about retrieving his memory, and immediately matched the pair of soft giants behind his head with a pretty face.

"Glass?" He said. Only the vicious villain Sakura could let Glass be his chest pillow in a classroom with so many people.

"No~" Sakura immediately retorted.

What's wrong? This touch is definitely Glass!

Hojo Kyosuke dared to guarantee it with his life, but he didn't dare to say it.

Fortunately, Sakura was not a person who made things difficult for others. He immediately gave a hint. With a shy hum, Hojo Kyosuke fell into the softness again.

Hojo Kyosuke sniffed hard a few times, trying to cheat through his unique sense of smell. But unfortunately, Yamauchi Sakura, who knew him inside and out, blocked his nostrils with two little fingers while blindfolding his eyes, so he couldn't smell anything except the smell of Sakura.

After a long struggle, Hojo Kyosuke just kept talking about Glass.

There was nothing he could do. He knew that Kawasaki Saki, a classmate in his class, could compete with Glass in terms of breast size, but he didn't dare to say it! What would happen if he said it out?

Finally, with Sakura's sigh of "Kyosuke, you are such an idiot", Hojo Kyosuke regained his sight.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Nishimiya Glass with a blushing face and Yuigahama Yui who was held in Sakura's arms and couldn't run away.

Hiss...

Hojo Kyosuke's brain was so useful that his eyes wandered around Glass and Yuigahama's chests for a while and he thought of a possibility.

"Hahaha~ This time, are you satisfied with my trick?"

Sakura laughed loudly, and Yuigahama Yui, who was held in her arms, gathered her school uniform, showing her amazing potential that she never showed at other times.

"Well, this is our exciting combo!"

"I lost."

Hojo Kyousuke sighed. It seems that his practice is still insufficient. He couldn't feel the difference in the touch of the two sides of the pillow. It's really wrong. It's really lazy, Hojo Kyousuke!

Cursing himself in his heart, someone knew shame and then courage, and said seriously:

"But if it happens again, I will never guess wrong again!"

He raised his voice:

"The person sitting in front of you is the winner of the 2015 Honya Grand Prize, the candidate of the Neon Mystery Association Prize, and the best trick maker. In front of me, there is no trick that cannot be cracked!"

"Very good, very energetic! Then, please do everything you can to prove your dignity!"

Sakura-sama waved her hand, and Yuigahama Yui snorted and ran back to her seat, covering her face.

Hojo Kyousuke closed his eyes, and a pair of familiar little hands covered his eyes again, and then his entire upper body was held in his arms, and the fragrance of dew surrounded him.

"This time, are you satisfied with my trick?"

A smiling voice sounded in his ears.

The distracting thoughts in Hojo Kyosuke's heart disappeared without a trace in an instant. He pursed his lips and smiled silently.

"I'm sorry, I lied. I couldn't see through the ruse."

He raised his hand to cover Sakura's hand and responded softly.

"Hehe~~"

Amid the girl's crisp laughter, today's publicity campaign for "Writer K's Dream and Death" achieved absolute victory.

This was a hearty online carnival, and netizens had a lot of fun. Not only were they lucky enough to know such an interesting writer as Mr. Hojo, but they also saw so many big stars performing monkey tricks for them; people in the entertainment industry gained traffic, not only I got caught up in Mr. Hojo's popularity, and even marketed a new set of his own characters; Eishusha received additional orders from major distributors, and the new book was locked in the bestseller list before it was officially released...

Only Hojo Kyosuke got nothing but money.

As night falls, inside an izakaya in Akasaka, Minato City

Ichiro Hojo raised his glass and shouted a cheer, and drank the cold draft beer in one gulp. Just as he was about to pick up the skewers, he heard his friend Utsumi next to him say:

"Ichiro, now your son is really going to become a great writer. Do you want to sign a contract with our law firm in advance to help him handle his copyright?"

"Ah, that kid is far from good. If I hear you say that, he will be so proud that his tail will be knocked to the sky. His royalties are not enough to cooperate with our law firm."

Hojo Ichiro said disdainfully, but his chin was clearly pointed at the ceiling proudly.

"Hahahaha, are you acting rakugo? That smug face is so ugly!" Tamai, another friend, laughed and scolded.

So Ichiro Hojo simply put his hands on his hips and put on a more proud look, gathering with friends after a long absence, and he regained the joy of having fun after winning the lawsuit when he graduated from college.

"But you have a good son, and we are not bad either!"

Uchi Haisuke shouted, took out his wallet and slapped it on the table. Yuko Tamai next to him did the same.

Ichiro Hojo took a quick look and saw that there was not even a single coin in the two brand-name wallets.

"Excuse me……"

Utsumi and Yujing said in unison:

"This time, are you satisfied with my trick?"
