Tokyo: The life of a literary giant begins with home self-defense!

Chapter 146: Calling BB

There were two bad girls, one of them offered herself to the door, but the other one was as slippery as a loach.

Longchuan Tetsu stayed in Yamanaka Lake for two more days, but did not find an opportunity to punish his evil "sister".

March 25th, sunny.

Toru Ryukawa took the train back to Tokyo.

University is about to start, and Kodansha’s Group Portrait Award is also in April.

The sky was blue, and clouds that had turned into mist were floating in the sky.

In the steel forest, people come and go, and everyone seems very busy.

"Xiao Qian, Longchuan Tetsu."

Getting off the train at Central Station, a woman called out two people who had left the station together but were keeping their distance.

Toru Ryukawa was wearing a jacket and glasses, while Akane Takeda was wearing a lace dress and a sun hat.

Ryukawa Toru and Takeda Akane turned around at the same time.

"Mother!"

A surprised smile appeared on Takeda Akane's face, and she quickly ran towards the woman next to the red car.

"That is."

The little green tea girl Natsume Fuyumi also came back. She was wearing a light-colored long skirt and a cardigan jacket. In Tokyo, which has already become warmer, she was covered up tightly.

The mother and daughter were having a warm meeting scene, and Longchuan Che yawned lazily.

"Editor-in-chief of Kodansha."

Longchuan Che's words made Xiaolucha's eyes light up.

"From the haiku column."

Little Green Tea's eyes dimmed again.

Kodansha's editors also hold considerable resources in the industry, but haiku is gradually marginalized in Japan today, and an editor of a haiku column has little value.

"Huh? Longchuan Tetsu, why are you here too?"

Takeda Akane didn't expect that her mother, who was busy with work, would come to pick her up, but Ryukawa Toru knew about it a long time ago.

Mrs. Takeda walked up to Ryukawa Toru in a black dress and glanced at Natsume Fuyumi who was standing next to him without leaving a trace.

"We just happened to meet, let's go to my house for dinner together."

My wife looked like she was saying, "I'm here to pick up my daughter, and I accidentally ran into you, so I'll give you a ride and you can have dinner at my house too."

"Ah, I don't need it."

Natsume Fuyumi waved her hand. She had been to Yamanashi for a few days and was in a hurry to report back to school.

"Xiao Qian, Aunt Takeda, see you again someday."

After having a strange experience while out, Little Green Tea just wanted to go back to her rented apartment and digest it.

I have established a good relationship with the niece of the general manager of Kodansha, which is not bad.

It's great to meet a young author with great potential.

At this time, Little Green Tea didn't know whether meeting Longchuan Che was good or bad for her, so she winked at Longchuan Che and left.

There is a term in finance called sunk cost. The girl lost a lot of money to Long Chuan Che, and she would not be willing to give up unless she gets something back.

"Who is that girl?"

As soon as the little green tea girl left, Mrs. Takeda stood next to Longchuan Toru and secretly pinched the boy's waist.

Ever since helping Longchuan Che once, the maid has become more and more courageous, and she even dares to attack the master after her daughter gets in the car.

"It's a maidservant."

Ryukawa Toru bared his teeth and smiled at Mrs. Takeda.

She was wearing a black dress, her full breasts were pressed against Longchuan Che's arms, her buttocks were round and plump, and she was wearing a pair of thin flesh-colored stockings on her legs.

Her calves were slender and straight under the skirt, and on her feet were a pair of black lace-up high heels.

"Pre"

Takako Takeda looked strange.

In her eyes, maids seemed to be equated with lovers.

The woman raised her leg to leave, but Longchuan Che held her back strangely.

"Aren't you going to eat?"

"Eat air."

The woman's voice was a little annoyed, but she didn't really ignore Long Chuan Che. She took the boy into the car and threw a document to Long Chuan Che. "What is this?"

"Publication of Pinball 1973."

Takeda Takako, who was originally very happy, now changed her tone to a businesslike one.

Mrs. Takeda, who was kicked out to the haiku column, is very interesting. Since she joined the company, she has only signed one author, Ryukawa Toru. Although she is now in charge of marginalized haiku, she also signed the youth trilogy.

She will be responsible for the publishing of the youth trilogy and then become a marginalized woman in Kodansha.

This cannot be blamed on Takeda Shinki being cruel. The main reason is that Takeda General Manager is worried that his silly sister will act like a pawn again one day and be used as a gun by Ryukawa Toru again.

The Takeda family and the Ryukawa family are enemies. How could an enemy rush to help another enemy?

"Oh."

Longchuan Che nodded, then took a quick look around the car.

There are some scheduling issues and later authorization and publicity issues.

Longchuan Che signed and handed it back to the woman.

"The printing and publication will begin in April. The money from printing one issue will be paid to you as royalties."

Kodansha's publishing revenue is not based primarily on terminal sales, but rather on the sales of individual copies printed by printing factories.

For every copy printed, 10 percent of the selling price will be given to Longchuan Che.

"It's pretty fast."

Ryukawa Toru was surprised. The plan had just been finalized, but it was typeset and printed so quickly. Even for Kodansha, it found it incredible.

There are so many authors but only a few printing houses.

Kodansha publishes comics, magazines, light novels, and popular reading materials.

Kodansha has no shortage of money-making works, and Ryukawa Toru was able to arrange it so quickly through a backdoor.

"That's right." Mrs. Takeda looked like she was about to praise me.

"It's up to you."

Long Chuan Che didn't notice the woman's little thoughts and casually handed the document to his wife, who puffed up her chest with anger.

There is a lot of traffic outside the central station.

The woman's car was a bright red Camry. It wasn't very powerful, but it was comfortable to ride in.

The lady, wearing flat shoes, drove the car along the overpass.

The car drove out of Chiyoda and passed the bustling Ginza.

Takako Takeda and her friends live in the most luxurious Minato area in Tokyo.

There are many wealthy businessmen and celebrities here. The car stopped in front of the luxurious apartment, Roppongi.

"Xiao Qian."

Takako Takeda opened the front rearview mirror and touched up her makeup in front of the mirror.

The woman was dressed particularly beautifully today. The black dress made her look like a charming black rose.

"What's wrong, mother?"

Takeda Akane, who was fiddling with a black camera, looked up.

The little girl held the camera tightly these two days, sometimes taking pictures of the sky, sometimes taking pictures of the green grass.

I heard that the new black camera was the birthday present that Takako Takeda gave her this year.

"You go up first. I'll take Longchuan Tetsu over there to buy some vegetables and ask him to help me move some things."

The woman pointed her finger at the supermarket across the street.

"Okay, mother."

Takeda Akane gave Ryukawa Toru a look that said "my mother still loves me" and drove upstairs.

The small carriage was quiet, and Longchuan Che looked around.

The lady put on lipstick and smacked her lips, but showed no intention of getting out of the car.

“Not to buy.”

Kara cried out.

Before Longchuan Che could finish his words, the passenger seat was knocked down.

The wife rode on Longchuan Che and stared at him fiercely.

"I'm running around for your novel to be published, and you're out having affairs with other women?"
