"Heh, Kagurazaka, your thinking is a bit hasty... But it's not entirely your fault."

"How about this. Originally, some of the publicity and publishing resources that should have been allocated to your department in July should be allocated to the other two editors. Then, our goal for this summer season does not need to be first place, but top three! As long as you can help them get into the top three, it will be considered as your redemption!"

"But if you can't even meet this target, even I won't be able to help you smooth things over in front of the president and the others. At that time, I will demote you for a period of time to train you, and then come back to be your editor-in-chief."

"it is good."

Kagurazaka took a deep breath. Ever since she and Takagawa had finalized the release process for the second volume of "Four Lies", she had already made the mental preparations.

Moreover, everyone knows that the elegant-looking Editor-in-Chief Suzuki likes to speak in a nice way.

If you really fail to meet the target and really want to return to the editor-in-chief position in a year or two, that is definitely unrealistic.

Upon hearing this, those editors who didn't get along well with Kagurazaka had a flash of surprise in their eyes, and then they smiled at each other.

Kagurazaka has a lot of good authors under his command!

Even though the account of Ikaros is no longer valid, there is still the orthodox Thor writer, Senju Murasaki.

If Kagurazaka doesn't meet the target!

If he is really demoted from the position of editor-in-chief, then the editors and authors of the Kagurazaka Group will have the opportunity to get involved.

……

This military order-like incident quickly spread throughout the Dengeki Library.

As the ratings of "Four Lies" continue to decline!

In the office of the Kagurazaka Group, all the editors, including Fujii Yuuna, were suddenly extremely anxious.

They finally saw Kagurazaka coming back from the meeting, and he was also in tears: "Boss, I heard that you signed a military order and are leaving the position of editor-in-chief?!"

Hearing what his subordinate said, Kagurazaka simply rolled his eyes: "No, it's not good for you to curse me like that!"

"Do you think we should contact Mr. Ikaros and ask him to finalize the ending of the remake of "Four Lies"? Maybe readers will be more accepting of it this way?"

Kagurazaka frowned and said firmly: "It doesn't need to be changed, and it can't be changed!"

"But... the comments about us on the Internet now..."

Kagurazaka forced a smile and said, "Isn't the original intention of our Kagurazaka Group to publish a good work for everyone?"

“Although today’s readers have lost their minds, we cannot lose our minds!”

"The current ending is the most perfect ending for "Four Lies". If Kaoru hadn't died, Kousei's growth would have collapsed. He would just have returned to the stage when he was a child playing the piano for his mother, except that his mother Arima Saki was replaced by Miyazono Kaoru!"

"Besides, if Ikaros is willing to change, then he is not Sensei Ikaros!"

In Kagurazaka's view, the theme of "Four Lies" has always been growth. A fledgling always needs to leave its mother's feeding, and a boy always needs to leave others' support.

And, most importantly!

Just after the meeting, Editor-in-Chief Suzuki left her alone for two minutes!

Explain it to her!

The military order that had just been issued to her in public was only to ease the internal conflicts within the editorial department.

Moreover, he also believes in the current plot of "Four Lies". After watching it, he even directly defined "Four Lies" as a masterpiece at the level of "Phantom Blade"!

Otherwise, he would not have gone against the crowd and released "Four Lies" in July. At that time, there were many works that could be scheduled that were no less inferior to the other four, but he withdrew all the other works.

Besides, it’s only the first day of July, and the audience’s outburst of emotions will eventually dissipate. Who knows what the ending will be like? !

He believes that the current negative reviews, black reviews, tower rushes, and product returns are all temporary, and the climax of the second volume of "Four Lies" has not really arrived yet.

A true masterpiece, even if it is in the deep sea and covered in mud at the beginning, will not be defeated by rumors.

Editor-in-Chief Suzuki's words reminded me of Gao Chuanshuo's unwavering persistence!

It immediately gave her a lot of confidence!

……

At this time, discussions on the Internet became increasingly heated.

Many official Dengeki Bunko accounts, and even the official accounts of Dengeki Bunko authors, have countless readers leaving messages below.

I hope Ikaros can change the plot.

Change Xiaoxun’s ending.

However, both Dengeki Bunko and Takagawa himself turned a blind eye to it.

Of course Gao Chuan turned a deaf ear to it!

Thanks to MEM啾, a kind-hearted person, who invited Kulala, who has a large number of fans, to join the live broadcast, the emotional value of the second volume of "Four Lies" increased several times.

But the weird thing is——

Even though they kept cursing, after cursing, they couldn't help but buy back the returned copy of "Four Lies".

There is no other reason, it’s just because this book is really well written.

While reading the novel, crying and cursing, I even watched the tear-jerking slices of MEM啾酱 which was very popular on YouTube, and watched the opponent's defense breaking scenes!

It can be said that the scene was extremely weird.

……

On the other side is MEM啾’s home.

Since MEM啾酱 kept crying, the live broadcast could not continue, and Kulala quickly shut down the live broadcast.

Then he comforted MEM啾.

however!

MEM啾 couldn't stop her tears. She cried for more than an hour and her voice became a little hoarse before she felt a little better.

"Come and drink some water, don't be too sad."

MEM nodded and choked up:

"Thank you, Kulala."

MEM drank the warm water in the cup in one gulp!

The mood was still a little low: "Kulala, aren't you sad? Xiaoxun is dead."

"It's actually quite sad." Kulala shook her head, "But the plot of Ikaros is well-written and serious, and I like it very much."

MEM opened her eyes wide, in disbelief:

"Kurara-chan, you don't have a fever, do you? Xiaoxun is dead. You were so angry that you cried for a while just now. How dare you say that you like this crappy work "Four Lies"?!"

Kulala looked at MEM helplessly:

"I don't care about that. After all, I know from the new book interview that this work was not completed by Ikaros alone. He discussed this matter with Karina Yuta, which means that Karina Yuta also highly approves of this ending. Otherwise, how could Ikaros speak highly of her in the new book interview? The same goes for the editor of Dengeki Bunko..."

"And why are we so sad? Isn't it because Mr. Ikaros wrote this story and this character so well that you feel reluctant to part with him?"

MEM was silent. She felt that what Kulala said made sense.

"Even if you say that, I'm still very angry!"

"I, I'm going to take a shower!"

……

bathroom.

The wet short hair was wrapped in a towel, and MEM啾's two slender legs were placed in the bathtub.

However, at this moment, her attention was all on browsing the information on the Internet on her mobile phone.

she found.

With the closure of her own live broadcast, major social platforms, forums, and blogs have been completely dominated by entries related to "Four Lies".

of course!

Almost every post has two sentences about her crying because of the knife.

MEM chirped: "......"

She remembered that she had said confidently before the show started that she would definitely not be stabbed to tears this time, and now she wanted to find a crack in the bathroom floor to crawl into.

"Yes, this is not my fault, it's all the fault of that old thief Ikaros and that damned Karina Yuta!!!"

But in fact, besides her, there are many other YouTubers who have been criticized and cried.

Among them, the more famous one is Black Cat Sauce.

She bluntly said that she would send razor blades to the old thief Ikaros, and also said that she would raise funds to find professionals to kidnap the old thief Ikaros, lock him up in a small dark room and ask him to change the ending.

Seeing her makes me feel relieved!!!

Then she decisively opened her social media platform and edited a message:

"You old thief Ikaros, you are heartless, Nayuta!!"

Her current account has been on the hot search list and has attracted countless people's attention, so her complaint was very damaging.

It was also immediately on the hot search list again, and many people expressed their comfort and sympathy under her account.

But she was in no mood to read these messages.

She lay in the bathtub, looking at the ceiling, and suddenly remembered the scene where Xiaoxun kicked Kousei.

She immediately became angry again and picked up her phone to edit another message:

"Don't let me find him, or I will definitely kick him hard!"

"Oh! And Karina Yuta should also give it a try. Although the old thief Ikaros is not a human, Karina Yuta is definitely not a good guy either!"

"Execute together!"

……

in the living room.

Kulala is rereading "Four Lies".

Suddenly, the bathroom door was kicked open, as if someone was kicking someone.

Kulala looked at the angry MEM.

Kulala remembered the two IG messages that the other party had just posted on her account, and she immediately laughed.

"Chew-chan, the bathroom door is not Ikaros-sensei and Korinayuta-sensei."

"Kurala-chan, you haven't gone home yet." The woman was a little embarrassed.

"Well, I saw your IG and was a little worried about you." Kulala nodded and said, "Are you still unhappy?"

MEM shook his head and sighed:

"In fact, I have come to terms with it now. When I think about it carefully, I think Four Lies is actually quite well written."

Kulala held MEM in her arms, patted him on the back and said:

"It's okay, just like Teacher Ikaros said, Xiaoxun must have gone to heaven, don't worry.

"Let's sleep together tonight."

MEM nodded. Actually, they said they slept together, but in fact they just really slept together.

I won't do anything strange to the other person.

At most, it's just some private conversations.

MEM啾 crawled into bed, but Kulala sat on the bed and continued to read "Four Lies" under the night light beside her.

"Is Kulala still not asleep?" MEM asked.

Kulala shook her head: "I plan to help the Four Lies and Teacher Ikaros."

"Tsk, he's not a teacher, he's just a heartless old thief!"

"Jiu-chan, you can't be so disrespectful to others."

"Okay, fine, I'll just call him teacher." Seeing that Kulala's expression was very serious, MEM gave in.

I found that Kulala was busy again with her head down.
