33. An excessive sense of self, Kasumigaoka Utaha.
The term "beautiful woman" can be used politely as a compliment, but it can also be used to describe apathy or paranoia.
It was just a test from Sanzenin Arashi.
If Kasumigaoka Utaha doesn't like such slightly exaggerated words, then as for Sanzenin Arashi, it would be best to be able to understand her personality through a single sentence.
"Then, Mr. Station Master, could you tell me some tips and tricks?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha ignored Sanzenin Arashi's words and said, "Some people say my handwriting is too rigid."
Sanzenin Arashi was somewhat surprised.
Girls of this age are bound to slip up when praised. For example, if he were to repeat what he just said to the maid in this shop, he could take her to a hotel room that night.
“Good temperament.” Sanzenin Arashi pondered for a moment and said, “To be more specific, the novel is divided into several sections. The emptiness of the text is too much of a generalization. This is not a problem at all, but a complaint, Ms. Kasumigaoka Utaha.”
Sanzenin Arashi pondered that if the other party's writing was decent, she would bring her here to develop her career. A female writer who was as beautiful as a princess was a treasure no matter how you looked at it.
"So, you mean I have to give you the original manuscript now before you can make a judgment?"
“That’s true,” Sanzenin Arashi said with a smile.
Kasumigaoka Utaha took a sip of black tea: "But I left it at home. Can I wait until I go back to get it?"
Sanzenin Arashi pointed to her watch. It was already 7:30. A female high school student was coming and going so late at night. Kasumigaoka Utaha, aren't you afraid of being seen?
The girl pursed her lips: "Tsk...what a pity."
She spoke very softly, but Sanzenin Arashi still heard her.
“…” Sanzenin Arashi remained silent for a long time before saying, “If you really want help, then let’s do it tomorrow.”
What are you up to?
The girl suddenly spoke up: "...I can hardly imagine someone going to such lengths for a stranger."
Sanzenin Arashi was speechless. This girl's safety awareness was too strong!
"Self-satisfaction".
Rubbing her temples, Sanzenin Arashi asked, "Is this explanation satisfactory?"
"It's hard to imagine, Mr. Popular Novelist."
"Someone as busy as you, who even schedules his outings carefully, must be planning something against me, right? Am I wrong?"
Seeing Kasumigaoka Utaha's calm and collected demeanor, Sanzenin Arashi realized that she was really overthinking things.
"Yes, yes, I do have something in mind. When you're walking home alone tonight, I'll ambush you from behind, drag you into a secluded alley, the kind where no one's around, and do some naughty things. What do you think?"
Sanzenin Arashi admitted that the girl was indeed very beautiful, especially her beautiful legs, which were the most beautiful he had ever seen, but he wasn't the kind of guy who couldn't resist a woman.
"Oh?" Kasumigaoka Utaha chuckled mischievously.
Her smile had an indescribable charm, especially her two red eyes, which were like whirlpools.
"My current assets are 500,000."
Sanzenin Arashi shrugged: "I also need to run a novel website."
"What?" Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled slightly: "Is this popular novelist trying to flaunt his wealth in front of someone like me who has no income?"
This sharp tongue of Sanzenin Arashi felt...somewhat familiar.
"No, no, no, I was just saying you're overthinking it, Ms. Kasumigaoka Utaha."
"Although you are very beautiful, I don't want to go to jail. You have half an hour to ask your questions."
Arashi Sanzenin is a bit helpless with this kind of girl because she's impervious to reason and seems to have no interest in him whatsoever.
Kasumigaoka Utaha remained unmoved by Sanzenin Arashi's praise, then pursed her lips and said, "You said it yourself, popular author."
"Yes, yes, that's what I said."
"Then be prepared, popular author."
At this point, Sanzenin Arashi thought Kasumigaoka Utaha was about to ask some earth-shattering question, but...
The problems came at us like a barrage of bullets.
Kasumigaoka Utaha was indeed writing a novel for the first time, and she didn't understand any of the techniques.
The problem is... these problems aren't even problems.
What might be an incomprehensible question for Kasumigaoka Utaha is, in Sanzenin Arashi's eyes, a matter of course.
There were seven or eight questions in a row, all of them very basic.
Sanzenin Arashi slapped the table in exasperation, feeling as if answering these questions was like punching thin air.
"Technique certainly exists, but the most important thing is the plot; everything else serves it."
"The reason why the protagonist is the protagonist is simply because the story can be best presented through him."
"When people talk about knights, they think of the legend of King Arthur."
"When talking about the story of a king, one thinks of the conquest of Iskandar."
"When it comes to courage, the epic of Lionheart comes to mind."
Sanzenin Arashi patiently said, "So, it seems you've misunderstood something. Although I am the author of those two books by Nico Nico Douga, I don't have any techniques that can make you a god overnight."
"I'm too greedy."
Kasumigaoka Utaha now has a... smiling expression.
"It was a pleasure chatting with you, popular author." She took out her phone and gave a number. "Would you teach me again next time?"
Sanzenin Arashi nodded: "Of course, provided you pay the price."
Sanzenin Arashi never does anything meaningless. If you need his guidance, that's fine, as long as you pay the corresponding price that he can accept.
"Do you want me to send you off?"
"No need."
The girl walked out of the coffee shop with a satisfied expression.
Let's read her manuscript tomorrow before making a judgment.
Sanzenin Arashi thought for a moment, then stood up and narrowed her eyes.
Several young people dressed in casual clothes followed the girl upstairs.
"It seems my plans can be brought forward."
Even a fool could tell these people have ill intentions. Kasumigaoka Utaha, you're so careless! You didn't even realize you were being followed.
The girl seemed quite pleased with herself as she walked ahead, judging by her gait.
Although Sanzenin Arashi had no intention of... well, no intention of playing the hero and saving the damsel in distress.
but……
Such a good opportunity to win them over, why not take it?
So, Sanzenin Arashi slowly followed.
My martial arts skills are absolutely world-class, so why would I be afraid of these few people?
..
34. Where did they get this cliff wrong?!
The group followed behind Kasumigaoka Utaha, with Sanzenin Arashi close behind, pondering when it would be best to make their move.
"Who's going to go first?"
The whispers reached Sanzenin Arashi's ears: "I bet 100,000, how much do you guys put up?"
"That's really a twisted sense of humor. If you think the previous one is good, just go for it."
"Maybe she's not a paid escort?"
"Come on, high school students loitering around in places like this so late at night? That uniform must be rented."
"Give me 100,000 yuan, and I'll let you have whatever you want with that kind of woman, in any position you like."
One of them pointed at Kasumigaoka Utaha, but didn't notice Sanzenin Arashi at all.
Just as Sanzenin Arashi was about to go up, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was in front of her, suddenly stopped.
With a swift turn, the girl turned around, took out her phone, and said, "I noticed it from the beginning. If you keep following me, I'll call the police."
Sanzenin Arashi stood to one side and observed for a while.
These people are young and are probably students who go out at night; they are collectively known as delinquents.
"No, you may have misunderstood something, miss. We just wanted to invite you for a drink."
With a smirk, he slowly approached the girl and reached out to put his arm around her shoulder.
"I happen to have some spare cash, how about you do me the honor of coming over for a visit?"
"You'll feel absolutely amazing later," his companion chimed in.
"You guys?" Kasumigaoka Utaha ignored her, reached into her pocket, pulled out something, and then thrust it forward.
Sanzenin Arashi whistled.
A flash of electricity appeared, and the man closest to the girl collapsed to the ground, trembling all over.
Pepper spray and stuff, can't you tell, Ms. Kasumigaoka Utaha?
She has a beautiful face and a deep temperament, but who would have thought she would have such a fierce personality?
"What did you do to him?!"
The men who were approaching the girl stopped abruptly. One of their companions collapsed to the ground, trembling. After seeing what the girl was holding, they all gasped in shock.
"I've already called the police." The girl showed her phone. "So, Mr. Stalker, the police will be here soon. You have three minutes. Aren't you going to say your last words?"
Her beautiful face radiated confidence, as if to say that the people in front of her were not on the same level as her and there was nothing to care about.
What upset the girl was that being harassed by such a group of people was indeed very uncomfortable, especially given recent news reports of cases occurring at night in Chiba.
I never expected things to be so turbulent.
Upon seeing the 110 emergency number on the phone, the group of thugs could no longer contain themselves.
If the police catch you, you're in big trouble.
"You forced me to do this!"
With a whoosh, a small knife was pulled out, gleaming silver under the streetlight.
The blade sliced through the air twice, leaving a silver arc in its wake.
"With the addition of knife control, congratulations, you've got a few more charges against you." Kasumigaoka Utaha tossed her hair. "At this rate, you'll be going to jail, you know?"
"Shut up!"
The villain glared at Kasumigaoka Utaha, but unexpectedly, she called the police directly.
"I'll make you suffer later."
As those words fell, a flash of light appeared.
Kasumigaoka Utaha had a cut on her arm.
The girl's pupils contracted sharply. She had thought these people were just bluffing, but she hadn't expected them to actually dare to make a move.
Involuntarily, Kasumigaoka Utaha took two steps back, her brows furrowing. As strong-willed as she was, she would never show weakness.
"You forced me to do this."
Seeing the blood, the delinquent panicked and approached the girl step by step: "You'd better come and keep us company tonight."
"dream!"
Kasumigaoka Utaha took a step forward, swung her anti-wolf device, and an electric arc grazed the delinquent's arm, but the opponent was quick enough to dodge it.
