My childhood sweetheart is Nishimiya Glass

Chapter 298 An ominous premonition

As soon as she changed her shoes, she couldn't wait to walk into the living room and count the interesting things that had happened in the past seven days on her fingers.

A-Tsuna took the seaside specialties that Grandma A-Tani had given him and put them in the restaurant's refrigerator.

"Mom, let's talk about this later. Let Shoko go back and let Grandma Nishimiya know she's safe." As soon as Tsuna entered the living room, he heard Shoko recounting the events of the test of courage.

Upon hearing this, Shizuka Miyamura hurriedly told her to go back and let her family know she was safe, since Yaeko Nishimiya and Ike Nishimiya had been just as worried as she had been during those seven days.

"Mom, did anything happen while I was away for seven days?" After Shoko left, Tsuna casually sat down at the coffee table.

"Yes." Shizuka Miyamura nodded seriously: "In the seven days you were gone, your father and I ate two extra bowls of rice each."

"Hehe..." Tsuna gave her a smile and then stopped asking questions, silently peeling oranges from the fruit plate.

Just as he finished peeling off the orange pith, Shizuka Miyamura snatched it away, saying, "I've worried about you guys a lot these past seven days. You should give this one to your mother first."

"..."

----------

The daytime in late July is scorching hot, but as dusk falls, a cool breeze seeps up from the ground.

"Miyamura-sensei, the advance payment for the second volume and the payment for the first volume have already been sent. Please check if there are any problems."

The notification sound from his phone drew Tsuna's attention away from the night view. He replied with an "OK" and then checked the account details that had recently been deposited into his card.

"No problem, everything matches up."

"(OK.jpg)"

"The subsequent sales revenue and royalties will be transferred to you on the first of each month without fail."

"it is good"

Afterwards, Kazuno Jun inquired about the general situation of the new book, but Tsuna gave him a few perfunctory replies, and their conversation for the day came to an end.

"Shoko, I've received my royalties. I'll transfer your share to you now." Tsuna looked at Shoko, who was sitting at her desk, diligently drawing illustrations.

"Mmm." Upon hearing this, Shoko put down the stylus in her hand and looked up at him:

"Tsuna, what do you think? The second volume of 'Anohana' is going on sale tomorrow. If everyone doesn't get the ending they wanted, won't we get a lot of flak?"

"No." Tsuna shook his head without hesitation: "They'll only blame me then."

“Hmm…” Shoko suddenly realized that it made some sense.

"Why don't you post a teaser on Twitter or pray for a big hit? Or maybe interact with the book's fans?"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Shoko-san." Tsuna stood up, handed her his phone, picked up an empty glass from the table, and waved it at her. "I'm going downstairs for a drink of water. Do you want some?"

After seeing her shake her head, Tsuna decisively picked up his cup, turned around, and went downstairs. Not long ago, Shoko used his phone to create an account on Twitter and got it verified by Futaba Publishing.

He gained over 20,000 followers in just a few days, and so far, he has only posted one update on that account, which is just a short greeting.

The comments under the post were mostly about the plot of the second volume, as well as everyone's speculations about the plot. Among them, the speculation that the main characters would find a way to revive the female lead received the most likes.

When he saw this analysis and comment, he couldn't help but give it a like, which may be why it got so many likes.

Of course, this is also the source of Shoko's worry about being scolded...

"Why is it papaya milk again...?" Shoko took the milk that someone brought her, which still had a cool touch.

The air conditioner's outdoor unit was buzzing outside the window, mixed with the minty scent of the floral water by the bedside.

"Shizuka asked me to bring this up for you." Tsuna shrugged helplessly. "I don't like drinking it, so I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Fine……"

"Ring...ring...ring...!"

Just as Shoko was about to insert the straw, the ringing of her phone interrupted her. She saw it was her mother calling, exchanged a glance with Tsuna, and saw the same confusion in his eyes. She answered and put it on speakerphone. "Mom—"

"Shoko, is Tsuna with you?"

She was interrupted by Nishimiya Yaeko before she could finish speaking.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Shoko sensed the urgency in her voice and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Ask him if he paid you too much for the article."

She was dealing with work in the living room when she suddenly received a notification on her bank card. When she checked it, she was shocked to find that the royalties were almost equivalent to two or three months' salary.

She immediately called Shoko, now suspecting she might have taken too much.

"what……!?"

Nishimiya Yaeko immediately rattled off a string of numbers. Ignoring her surprise, she turned to the person and asked, "How much did you send me? Did you send me all your royalties?"

Aunt Nishimiya helplessly shrugged in front of Shoko, "Aunt Nishimiya, the payment was exactly as it was in the contract, there was no mistake."

After saying that, he showed Shoko the royalties sent by Futaba Publishing House. Nishimiya Yaeko breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Shoko's confirmation.

"Aunt Nishimiya doesn't even know how popular my book is?" After Nishimiya Yaeko hung up the phone, Tsuna sat down next to her and asked.

"Besides work and the TV dramas that my godmother recommends, my mother doesn't seem to pay much attention to these things."

"But it's not important." He shrugged. "Now that Shoko is able to help ease the burden on her family, aren't you happy?"

“Mm.” Shoko nodded happily, although she knew her mother wouldn’t use the money or mention it; at most, she was just worried that she would squander it.

"Tsuna."

"Ok?"

Do you remember what you promised me not long ago?

"The one you're posing in?"

"Hmm." Seeing that he had guessed it, Shoko swallowed the hint she was about to say.

"The client is pressing for the manuscript, so I'm thinking of doing this in the next couple of days..."

"Then let's do it tomorrow. Just tell me tomorrow." Tsuna waved his hand, indicating that it was just a few poses and he didn't care anymore.

"Then I'll bring the clothes over for you to wear tomorrow." Shoko didn't expect that the time could be set so easily, and it was tomorrow.

"Wait a minute..." Tsuna asked tentatively, "You're not going to make me wear an Action Kamen cosplay outfit again...?"

"No, no." Shoko shook her head like a rattle-drum. "Just a white shirt."

"White shirt? Action Kamen? What's the connection between the two?"

Tsuna had a bad feeling, especially when he saw that Shoko was not saying anything for a long time and her ears were gradually turning color.

"Didn't you tell me you were commissioned to draw Action Kamen?"

Shoko couldn't stand his direct gaze any longer and gradually lowered her head. "It is Action Kamen, but it's Action Kamen in his pre-transformation form, which is 'Go Gotaro'..."

"..."

"Alright..." Tsuna hesitated for a moment but did not change his mind. Whether before or after transformation, it was just a few victory poses anyway.

"In that case, that head..."

"As for the head, I will change it to 'Gotaro Go' later."

"Row……"
