I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

Preparations for the Osaka performance are in full swing, and the external relations department of [Star Engine] has already sent people to Osaka to coordinate with the venue.

At the same time, Genkawa Yu made an important decision.

[Literary Masters (Red)]

Having mastered the first red entry, Yuan Chuan You gained more insights into writing, and thus, he decided to write a new book to verify his understanding.

The book is called "Journey Under the Midnight Sun".

He spent three days completing the outline and another week writing the first drafts of the first two chapters.

After finishing writing, he saved the draft on his computer, intending to show it to others at a suitable time.

Just then, Kasumigaoka Utaha's phone rang.

"Hey?"

"Genkawa-kun~"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of coquettishness in it, "Are you busy right now?"

Since the two confirmed their relationship, Kasumigaoka Utaha's attitude towards him has changed significantly.

In the past, when she spoke to him, she always carried a layer of reserved demeanor befitting a female author, but now that layer has completely disappeared, replaced by an undisguised intimacy and dependence.

Kasumigaoka Utaha is also a very clingy woman.

"I'm working on some documents," he said. "What's up?"

"It's nothing, I just missed you."

Genkawa Yu smiled helplessly. He glanced at the documents on the table. Most of the contracts for the Osaka performance were still unfinished, but there was no rush.

"I'll go back this afternoon and sit with you for a while."

"Really?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's voice immediately brightened, "Then I'll wait for you."

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, Yuan Chuanyu tidied up the documents and then stood up.

As he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something, then returned to his desk, copied the first two chapters of "White Night" to a USB drive, and printed out a copy.

He put the printed manuscript into a file folder, tucked it under his arm, and walked out of the office.

At 3:30 p.m., Genkawa Yu returned to the apartment building.

He went back to his apartment first, changed into casual clothes, then picked up the file bag containing the manuscript and went next door to ring Kasumigaoka Utaha's doorbell.

The door opened quickly.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was indeed wearing that light purple silk nightgown again.

Yuan Chuanyu had lost count of how many times she had come to open the door wearing this outfit... He even suspected that she always wore this outfit when she was at home.

However, to be fair, this outfit really looks good on her.

The silk fabric clung to the contours of her body, the straps draped diagonally from her shoulders, and the curve of the neckline perfectly showcased the skin below her collarbone.

The girl's hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, and she wasn't wearing any makeup, but her skin was still incredibly good.

Good afternoon~

Kasumigaoka Utaha leaned against the door frame, a lazy smile playing on her lips.

"Ah."

Genkawa Yu walked into the apartment and casually closed the door.

Kasumigaoka Utaha immediately clung to him like a clingy cat, wrapping her arms around Genkawa Yu's waist, burying her face in his chest, and taking a deep breath.

"It's been a long time," she said listlessly.

"Only three days."

“Three days is a long time.” Kasumigaoka Utaha looked up at him with a look that said, “You don’t understand women.” “For a woman in love, three days is like three years.”

"OK then."

Yuan Chuanyu was amused by her words. He reached out and ruffled her hair, then lifted the file folder that was tucked under his arm.

"By the way, I brought the manuscript of my new book. Would you like to take a look?"

The next moment, Kasumigaoka Utaha's expression changed instantly.

That coquettish, affectionate way of being lovers disappeared, replaced by an enthusiastic expression from fellow writers.

What type of new book is it?

You'll see when you see it.

Genkawa Yu walked into the living room, sat down on the sofa, and placed the file folder on the coffee table.

"Could you take a look at the first two drafts and see if there are any problems?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha immediately came over. Instead of sitting next to Genkawa Yu, she straddled his lap.

Genkawa Yu had already gotten used to her way of being affectionate.

After confirming their relationship, Kasumigaoka Utaha becomes a very clingy girlfriend. She expresses her affection in the most natural way without making the other person feel uncomfortable.

The girl took the printed manuscript out of the file bag and turned to the first page.

The title is three characters: "Journey Under the Midnight Sun".

Kasumigaoka Utaha took a deep breath and began to read.

Yuan Chuan You put his arm around her waist, and the girl sat on his lap, her upper body leaning slightly forward, holding the manuscript in her hands, her eyes moving quickly between the words.

She reads very quickly.

The first chapter of the manuscript begins like this.

In 19xx, a male corpse was discovered inside an abandoned building in Osaka.

The deceased, named Kirihara Yosuke, was the owner of a pawnshop. He was found stabbed in the chest with a sharp weapon, and no fingerprints or eyewitness testimonies were found at the scene.

The police launched an investigation, but were unable to find the killer, and the case ultimately became a cold case.

On the same day the incident occurred, in a nearby apartment building, a nine-year-old girl named Yukiho Nishimoto was quietly reading a book in her living room. Her mother, Fumiyo Nishimoto, sat expressionlessly in a chair beside her, watching television. A variety show was playing, and laughter and applause emanated from the speakers, creating a stark contrast to the deathly silence in the room.

No one knows what happened behind that tightly closed door.

Kasumigaoka Utaha stiffened slightly upon reading this.

Genkawa Yu sensed the change in her. He looked down and saw that the girl's brows were slightly furrowed and her lips were pressed into a straight line. She

"what happened?"

"Is this a mystery novel?"

"Ah."

"It makes me feel a little cold..."

"Ok?"

"Let me keep watching."

"it is good."

Kasumigaoka Utaha lowered her head and continued reading.

Chapter Two describes the investigation process after the incident.

Detective Junzo Sasagaki took over the case and began investigating the deceased's interpersonal relationships.

He discovered that the deceased, Kirihara Yosuke, was a seemingly ordinary middle-aged man who ran a small pawnshop, had a wife and a son, and led a mundane life.

However, during the investigation, Sasagaki gradually discovered some suspicious points. Kirihara Yosuke frequently visited suspicious locations, his accounts showed some inexplicable financial transactions, and his wife, Kirihara Yayoi, did not seem to show much grief over her husband's death.

Meanwhile, nine-year-old Yukiho Nishimoto began to appear in people's lives.

She is a very beautiful girl, like a delicate porcelain doll. She is smart, well-behaved, and sensible; everyone who meets her will inevitably fall in love with her.

But while talking to her, Sasagaki always felt something was off. It was a subtle feeling, like finding a crack almost invisible to the naked eye in a perfect mirror.

After about ten minutes, Kasumigaoka Utaha closed the manuscript and placed it on the coffee table.

Then she remained silent for a long time.

Yuan Chuan You put his arm around her waist and didn't urge her.

He knew that a good reader needs time to digest a good work after reading it.

"This is a very good story, quite captivating."
