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

Chapter 226: Sleeping? superior
Why does the sun still shine so golden?

Why do the birds keep singing?

Don't they know?

The world has come to an end.

-

Beside the waves, in front of the small harbor, Ryuukawa Tetsu's opening is very interesting.

Start with lyrics from a pop song.

Takeda Maki, who had spent some time abroad, immediately recognized that these were lyrics from the 1963 American pop song "The End Of The World".

"Why are you giving me this?"

Takeda Maki has heard this song and liked it very much.

"I heard from Takako that..."

Longchuan Che looked at the beautiful woman in the white dress who looked like a fairy.

Managing Director Takeda, who appears to be arrogant and powerful, was not like this at the beginning.

She was born with her younger sister. She was gifted and showed superior business talent since she was a child.

And in the big family, there are talented representatives...

"Ah."

After guessing her favorite song at once, Takeda Maki rested her hands on her knees and looked at the sea.

The sea is vast, and a little further over there is another country.

"I received an elite education and grew up abroad."

After the Meiji Restoration, Japan began to westernize.

Western ideas were pouring in, and at that time, it was very popular among the middle and upper classes of Takeda Maki to send their children abroad.

"That's amazing, Mr. Executive."

Long Chuan Che praised with a sigh.

According to information obtained from his wife, Takeda Maki was sent abroad for a period of time when she was very young.

She is much smarter than her sister and is regarded as the focus of the Takeda family's training. She pursues elite education and strict education, while the dumber wife...

Longchuan Che can only say that fools have good luck. His wife has been spoiled and loved by her parents since she was a child.

“Is it okay to say goodbye?”

Sitting on the beach reading a novel while bored, Takeda Maki read the opening story.

The story tells the story of "I" as a scientist's experimental subject, traveling to an immortal world, that is, the end of the world.

The story proceeds through two lines: one "I" exists in the "Cold Wonderland", that is, the real world, and another "I" exists in the imaginary world, that is, the end of the world.

In the cold wonderland, "I" am divorced, poor, mechanical and indifferent. I am always on tenterhooks and have nothing to cherish. I have no choice even if I am being used. Apart from work, I seem to have no connection with the world.

And at the end of the world, "I" can live in peace, quietly watching the smoke rising, drinking wine and chatting with the gatekeeper, and watching the breeze blowing past the unicorn.

After reading part of the content, Takeda Maki found this novel very interesting.

She is a perfectionist and someone who sets high standards for herself. The "End of the World" in the novel is very attractive to her.

"Where's the back?"

The content of tens of thousands of words was read in a flash. Takeda Maki saw that "I", as a dream reader at the "end of the world", could release people's memories absorbed by the unicorn.

Everything at the end of the world was new and new, and for the first time she became interested in Ryuukawa Toru's novel.

"Want to see?"

Longchuan Che raised an eyebrow at the woman.

"Come to my room tonight."

The executive lady rolled her eyes at the boy's frivolous words, and she handed the manuscript back to him.

"If you were so brave, Tokyo wouldn't have done nothing for me."

The more the executive thought about it, the more he felt something was not right.

She thought that no one could refuse her, but Longchuan Tetsu refused her on the grounds that she could have a long-term sexual partner and did not need a one-night stand.

Did he think his sister would care, or did she hate the idea of ​​him giving her money?

The executive officer hasn't figured it out yet.

"Longchuan Che, you are really incomprehensible."

This novel was probably written for her, and Takeda Shinki put the manuscript aside. She saw the golden light shining on the boy's hair, and the cold Ryuukawa Toru seemed to have a bit more pleasing color.

"Go back, they will be back soon."

I can't just sit there fishing all the time. There will be things to do when my wife and the others come back.

When the sun was setting in the west, Takeda Maki wanted to take Ryukawa Toru back with her.

"No."

Longchuan Che stared at the bucket and frowned. He had promised his wife that he would catch a fish for each of them for dinner.

"One for each person?"

Takeda Maki didn't know that the other party also had the idea of ​​preparing dinner for everyone from the sea.

"How many have you caught?"

Takeda Maki wanted to look over there, but the other party had hidden the bucket tightly.

"If I catch this one, I can catch two more, which will make three."

Ryukawa Toru showed an expression that was much more serious than when he was writing a novel, and Takeda Maki's face turned dark.

"Isn't this just one thing? Let's go. We still have a lot of things to do at the book signing event."

Takeda Maki wanted to pull the other person's ears, but she didn't do it.

Too ambiguous.

Mr. Ryukawa, who called himself the fishing king of Lake Yamanaka, ultimately returned empty-handed in Otaru, a place famous for seafood.

After I got back, a very interesting thing happened.

Longchuan Che made that strange statement.

"If I catch one, then two more will make three."

The air force guy told his wife in his characteristically stubborn way.

"Eh?"

The woman, who was confused, was stunned.

"So much? Can you finish it?"

The silly woman is so cute, Longchuan Che feels that he likes the maid more and more.

The golden sun sets and the silver moon rises.

It was April 27th, the second day that Ryukawa Toru arrived in Otaru.

"Then tomorrow we need to entertain local readers and book fans."

After briefly introducing today's newspaper distribution, Takeda Maki looked at the work team of four women and one man.

In order to catch the huge influx of people during the Golden Week, several people first chose to publish the information of the book signing event in Otaru's evening paper tonight.
-
Ophiuchus, Ryukawa Tetsu, held a book signing event at Funamizaka, Music Box Hall.

Many people will see this news in the Otaru Evening News.

"Then everyone should get some rest. I expect there will be between five hundred and one thousand people tomorrow."

Takeda Maki looked at the clock. She estimated that the number of books signed at tomorrow's autograph session for this kind of temporary publication, which was pure literature, would be 5000 to 10000.

"Looks like I'll have to get up at 5 a.m. to run tomorrow."

Longchuan Che yawned lazily, stood up and walked out of the hall.

We have to be outside the venue to prepare at 6:30 tomorrow. I’ve never heard of an author having to get up and move materials by himself for a book signing.

"You, why don't you stay here tonight?"

Ryukawa Toru was about to leave lazily because he had already done a lot of preparations today. Takeda Maki spoke hesitantly.

"Is it okay? Sis."

Takeda Takako spoke excitedly, but when she turned around, her sister hit her forehead.

"Sleep in separate rooms."

Takeda Maki looked at her itchy sister. These two people wanted to sleep together under her nose. They were simply asking for their own life.

Although I can’t sleep in the same bed with my wife, at least I don’t have to rush back and forth.

It was already 11 o'clock in the evening and Longchuan Che fell asleep in the room on the second floor.

The Music Box Hall is closer to the seaside, and occasionally the sound of waves and whistles can reach your ears.

The time was quiet and sleepy. Longchuan Che, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly felt someone crawling into his quilt.
