Chapter 972 Ying Lili: Stop stuffing things in my mouth!
Chapter 972 Ying Lili: Stop stuffing things in my mouth!
As soon as I understood the truth, I felt the world was vast. Kasumigaoka Utaha's IQ was at the top again.
While looking through the meeting minutes, she even had the leisure to think about other things, such as whether she should invite Kyosuke to join her in the launch of the new book and hold a press conference together.
As the saying goes, "They look alike are a couple." People from the same family tend to stick together.
Whether it was the attraction of similar personalities or the mutual influence after being together, in short, like Hojo Kyosuke and Yamauchi Sakura, Kasumigaoka was also a person who would not hesitate to use any means to achieve his goals.
Just like when Hojo Kyosuke's "The Devotion of Suspect X" was first published, Kasumi Shiko directly bundled it together and sold it during a book signing event, using this simple and violent method to promote Hojo Kyosuke.
The couple worked together to make money.
Or you can link it with Kyosuke's book. Although what you write is not a mystery novel, it can serve as a supplement to fill in the detective world constructed by Kyosuke and enrich the background of the story.
A guest appearance by a character to supplement the plot.
what--
The more Kasumigaoka Utaha thought about it, the happier she became. Isn't this just taking an oath of marriage in front of the whole world?
Isn't this more thoughtful than drawing a home run trajectory with yarn?
Charming, elegant, interesting...
This is a romance that belongs only to writers!
A smile quietly hung on the corner of the girl's mouth, her gorgeous burgundy eyes sparkled, and her pair of slender legs wrapped in black stockings were crossed together. Her round-toed leather shoes kicked the front seat again and again. It was obvious that she was in a very good mood.
Strange! How weird!
Machida Sonoko frowned as she was secretly observing. She knew that most writers had quirks and different personalities, but it was rare for someone to develop quirks so early and so frequently like her own Xiao Shi.
In just over half an hour, he went from being completely focused when discussing the new book to suddenly becoming furious and gathering his troops to march to Tokyo, and then inexplicably changed his mind to go back to the publishing house. Now, looking at his notebook, he was smiling so happily?
In Machida's impression, it seems that Xiao Shi would only smile like this when talking about Hojo teacher.
Crazy, crazy, definitely crazy.
The editor herself didn't know that the notes she wrote were so beautiful and could make people laugh so happily.
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw the baby writer slam the notebook shut, which scared her so much that she almost jumped up. In fact, she did jump up, but she didn't have the ability to jump up in a sitting position, so it was probably like a fish thrown on the floor at noon, jumping and flapping in place.
"What, what's wrong, Xiaoshi?"
Machida Sonoko turned her head and asked carefully. After all, she was a mature woman in her thirties and was quite experienced in dealing with little girls with strange temperaments.
"Just think of it as practicing to be a mother in advance! Just think of it as practicing to be a mother in advance!"
"If I can handle such a weird daughter, then I will be able to handle my own daughter easily after I get married!"
"Patience! Patience! Patience is an excellent quality!"
"Practice! Practice! I am a powerful woman of the new generation whose maternal radiance can stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun!"
"..."
These are the hypnosis that Machida Sonoko usually uses on herself, which has supported her to serve the difficult teacher Kasumi Shiko day after day for years, and successfully turned herself into a "mom-like editor".
If it were a year ago, she would have prayed madly in her heart, "Don't tell me you're going to Tokyo again, you unlucky child!"
Now, she is very peaceful. Xiaoshi can go wherever she wants. She doesn't need to drive, and she doesn't need to refuel. Her only request is:
"Can we have French food later? The editor-in-chief gave us a lot of funds today, and we must use it all up, dear Xiaoshi."
Upon hearing this, Kasumigaoka Utaha raised her head and casually glanced at her editor. Her big burgundy eyes were very bright.
She leaned back lazily, and said with a smile:
"Nothing, I just thought of something happy."
Machida Sonoko nodded thoughtfully.
What the hell!
Who can guess what a crazy girl is thinking! I'm not crazy!
But she still tried to open her eyes wide, looking to the left with anticipation, eager to eat the melon.
Kasumigaoka Utaha ignored it, but she didn't disappoint the editor.
She took out her cell phone and dialed a number skillfully.
Since I am in such a good mood, how can I make others feel good?
The call was quickly connected, and the black-haired girl spoke in a relaxed and comfortable manner:
"Hello? Is this Kawamura-san?"
"..."
Machida Yuanzi's mouth twitched. I knew it! I knew it!
When Xiao Shi is in a bad mood, she likes to make trouble for Miss Spencer, using it to divert her negative emotions. When she is in a good mood, she likes to make trouble for Miss Spencer even more, as if she is using Miss Spencer as a happiness amplifier.
After a brief silence, the person on the other end of the phone spoke:
"I'm in a good mood right now. I don't want to play the game of calling someone by the wrong name to show disdain with you. If you have anything to say, just say it. If you have nothing else to say, I'll hang up now!"
There was a mixture of calmness and irritability in the voice. That's right, it was Spencer who was in a big lady state!
Machida Yuanzi cheered in her heart, but she only regretted that she had no melon seeds in her hand. She loved watching the love-hate drama between her own Xiaoshi and the blonde princess!
As the editor-in-charge of Kasumi Shiko, she was in charge of following up on the publicity of the novel. She was the one who first contacted the famous fanfiction book, and then found the other party to draw the novel and insert the story, so she knew the relationship between the two of them very well.
Listening to Eriri's suppressed angry voice, Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth, and her charming face was simply beaming with joy.
"Oh my god, it's so sad. You don't even want to call me senior sister. This is really..."
A leisurely voice came out of her mouth. No one in the world was better than her at provoking the anger of the golden-haired guy opposite.
Sure enough, the next moment she heard a sweet and clear voice coming from the other end of the phone:
"Well, I have something to do..."
You don't need to guess, it's Eriri who's greeting her friends, and she's going to find a place where no one is around to have a full-on fight. After not having a fight for the whole morning, this guy must be feeling frustrated, right?
Hey, you are really addicted to food.
Kasumigaoka thought happily.
"Xia..."
Hearing that Eriri was about to have a fit, Kasumigaoka Utaha interrupted the spell and said, "I have something very important to tell you!"
Then, without waiting for the other party to react, she told them everything that happened at the Sobu High School baseball field, of course, adding some exaggerations without making any noise.
For example, "Tsk, even my puppy has a picture, but a certain golden retriever doesn't. Wait, could it be that Kyosuke originally wanted to draw a golden retriever?"
Or, "Oh, I remember that it was you, Kawamura, who taught Kyosuke how to draw. I didn't expect that..."
Machida Sonoko, who was standing next to her, grimaced as she listened, and her sympathy for Miss Spencer reached its peak.
Meeting a demon like Xiaoshi, all the sins of ten lifetimes have been redeemed, and I will definitely have great luck in the next life.
Eriri's breathing became heavier and heavier, and by the time Kasumigaoka Utaha finished speaking, it was loud enough that even Machida Sonoko could hear it.
Oh, the poor kid must be pissed.
Just like the little poem half an hour ago~~
The editor covered her mouth and laughed, it was not surprising at all why these two people became such close friends who loved and hated each other.
"Snapped!"
Without saying a word, Ying Lili hung up the phone.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Kasumigaoka Utaha had an evil smirk on her lips and an unnatural blush on her face, looking completely satisfied.
Machida Sonoko wanted to cover her face when she saw this, and an idea suddenly came to her mind.
"If these two people can't marry the same man, it would be better for them to get married on their own."
"Now that I've figured it out, I'm going to make that idiot confused. There's no reason for her to have so much fun!"
The murmuring sound came out from Kasumigaoka's mouth hidden under the shadow of her bangs, full of joy.
That's really bad, Xiaoshi.
Machida Sonoko sighed inwardly but dared not show any emotion on her face. As long as nothing bad happened to her, she would be thankful.
On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Eriri clenched her hands together, let her hands hang on both sides of her skirt, and walked straight towards the street shop where she was enjoying afternoon tea with her friends, very consciously like an anime character.
Under the white Roman umbrella, there were snacks and drinks on the white round table. Four or five girls in the school uniform of Private Toyosaki Academy were sitting there and chatting.
"Where are we going later? The arcade? Or a movie?"
"What is Lily doing? Why hasn't she come back in such a long time?"
"Someone called her, it should be soon, right?"
"Could it be that the diplomat called?"
"No, Uncle Spencer always greets us every time he calls Lily. He's such a gentleman!"
"..."
Amid the chat, the funny cartoon character Eriri arrives!
Amid the confused looks of her classmates, she grabbed her schoolbag from the chair and turned around to rush to Sobu High School.
But before she could take a step, her slender wrist was grabbed.
Eriri, with a gloomy face, turned around and saw the concerned expressions of the rebellious deputy minister and his friends.
"What's wrong Lily?"
Ishizawa Hisamari asked worriedly.
Ying Lili forced a smile, which was very ugly.
"It's okay," she said.
"But you look like you're going to commit suicide."
The deputy minister with pigtails said bluntly.
A vein flashed on Eriri's forehead. Shouldn't I look like I'm going to kill someone?! What are you still painting with those eyes? Go play Zatoichi, you bastard!
"It's just that something very important happened, and my friend asked me to help."
She explained.
"Is it something important?"
The other girls stood up immediately upon hearing this and asked in unison:
"Do you need our help?"
"Lily, where did you and your friends meet? Do you need me to ask dad to drive over? His company is nearby."
"Which friend is it? Do we know each other?"
"..."
Hearing her friends' concern, Eriri's fragile heart, which was about to burst from the stimulation, was comforted again, and she spoke softly:
"Thank you everyone. Actually, actually..."
Wait, wait!!
Who am I? No, now is not the time to think about this!
What should I do? Should I teach Kasumigaoka Utaha a lesson for the sneaky chores? Or should I beat up Yukino who wanted to steal my house?
No, that's not right!
That woman Kasumigaoka Utaha never said she was going to Sobu High School!
A flash of lightning flashed through Ying Lili's clever little head!
That woman! Why would she be so kind to give me the news!?
Why doesn't she go by herself?
There was no way she could lose to Yukino, it would be almost the same if it were her.
Eriri frowned as she thought. It would be almost the same if she called Kasumigaoka for help. She knew very well the fighting ability of that woman, that witch!
A good person like Yukino, who has a high moral bottom line, is no match for her at all, and it is impossible for her to fight with Kasumigaoka for three hundred rounds like herself.
So why did she call herself?
Sudden illness? Insanity? Kneeling down and begging for mercy?
Deputy Minister with Pigtails and others saw that Ying Lili was thinking, so they didn't say anything to disturb her. They just took her hand and pressed her down on the chair. They picked up a few biscuits and stuffed them into her mouth, gave her two sips of black tea, and finally took a white tissue to help the princess wipe her mouth clean.
Wow~ Our Lily is still so beautiful!
The girls were all very happy. They didn't chat at all. They just looked at "The Thinker Eriri" with smiles and admired her stunning beauty.
Ying Lili made full use of her intelligence and wisdom, mobilized the valuable experience accumulated over more than ten years of life, gathered all her inspirations together and ignited them, using the strongest effort of her life...
finally!
"Hey, Mikoha? Are you free?"
"Yeah, I'm eating something too. It's cookies with dried blueberries. They smell delicious!"
"I see, you're drinking flower tea? Or you made it with the club members? This is so interesting!"
"No, no, I didn't call to chat with you!"
"Would you like me to bring some back? I want jasmine ones. If you have roses, you can bring some back too. That girl from Kasumigaoka... Hashidou Sack!"
"I remember now! I was talking about that woman!"
Ying Lili screamed loudly, and she finally broke free from the endless illusion.
Miyamizu Mitsuha on the other side said with a sly smile:
"You want to ask about Shiyu? You two really have a tacit understanding. She just called me."
A gleam of wisdom flashed in Eriri's eyes, and she said quickly:
"Did she ask you to go to Sobu High School as well?"
The witch laughed again and said jokingly:
"I'm not as brave as you, Lily. Shiyu will never ask me to go."
When Ying Lili heard this, her brain automatically translated it:
"I'm not as stupid as you, Lily. Shiyu knows you can't fool me."
Xiba!
That woman! As expected!!
You're playing tricks on me again!
Her Royal Highness the Princess was so angry that she almost died. Fortunately, her friend stopped her, otherwise she would have been tricked again!
"But just now, Shiyu seemed to be planning to go, but now, she has probably returned to the publishing house. You know, she is preparing a new book recently."
Miss Miko kindly reminded.
Ying Lili nodded silently, said she understood, and hung up.
Bahga, bahga, bahga!
That woman, if you don’t go, would I go?
You have things to do, don't I?
The girl thought indignantly, and then chewed twice subconsciously.
Click, click, click—
Hmm? Where did the cookie in my mouth come from?
Ying Lili was stunned, then she saw that Deputy Minister Nizi had brought the teacup to her mouth, and she subconsciously opened her mouth.
"Wait……"
She swallowed the food in her mouth and before she could say anything, the soft towel came up to her again.
Bastards! What are you traitors doing? I have something important to do!
Kasumigaoka Utaha is quietly improving, how can I be here with you guys...
Hmm…Hmm…
I told you not to stuff cookies into my mouth! (End of this chapter)
