"Woooo... so touching."

As soon as I came back, I saw Mr. Keigo, the resentful spirit, crying with tears in my eyes.

Higashino Kok was speechless for a while. This ghost not only had a lot of inner drama, but also had a lot of emotions.

"Your family is all very good, reminding me of my own family, woo-woo-woo-woo--"

So that's it.

Fortunately, Mr. Keigo is a spirit and will not waste tissues.

"Why are you crying? I didn't cry." Kokoto Higashino was a little upset by this guy, but he still said: "I really want to thank you more for this incident, Mr. Keigo."

Both attitude and tone are very sincere.

This even surprised Keigo Higashino.

"Saikyo, what's wrong with you? Why are you so kind to me all of a sudden?"

Koto Higashino took out the paper and pen again and wrote: "Without the editor Kuki you introduced, I'm afraid there wouldn't be so smooth this time."

When Mr. Keigo heard this, he became proud, "Ha! I'm still very useful, definitely a gold medal assistant! Haha..."

I was crying just now, but now I am very proud. I can switch quickly and freely.

But, in general, Mr. Keigo did have a great effect this time.

Of course, you have to be very cautious when it comes to submission.

This is the case with rb now.

With the arrival of the new century, the world has undergone great changes.

In the last century, it could almost be said that the RB literary world was blooming, but it has become somewhat lacking in vitality until now.

Serious literature is not very good, but based on mystery novels, there are only some well-known writers who are currently supporting the scene.

Even this situation tends to spread to the entire cultural circle.

In terms of comics, Naruto has just been serialized for a while, and Pirates have only been in the industry for three years.

These two works are already phenomenal, but they are not as brilliant as before.

It’s not without a powerful painter, such as Gui Zhenghe, his painting style is delicate, especially those difficult-to-describe features...

Many people are analyzing that this may have a lot to do with the RB economic recession, as well as the reduction in births, etc.

Kokoshi Higashino wanted to become a novelist, and he wanted to make money from novels, so he was naturally very cautious in submitting his articles.

You have to find a capable publisher.

Literary Spring and Autumn, Kakugawa Bookstore.

Koto Higashino also heard about these two families. He remembered that Mr. Keigo Higashino published his book in the Spring and Autumn Period.

After asking, Mr. Keigo naturally talked about his past glory.

Kok Higashino heard the name Masao Kuki.

The key details lie in the age of the editor.

At present, the Asian financial crisis has not really passed, and the US high-tech plunges again this year, and the RB economy will be greatly affected.

An editor of midlife crisis, this is really great.

When Koto Higashino said this, Mr. Keigo was very confused.

Fortunately, Kokoshi Higashino talked about his plan.

All of this, the Higashino family has been arranged for this scene, just for one thing.

"Get higher original materials! Better publishing! Make more money!"

"..." After hearing this, Mr. Keigo's face was very unnatural.

"Mr. Keigo, do you know how hard it is to pretend to be a genius before?"

"Ah, you're all pretending?"

Mr. Keigo can be said to have witnessed it throughout the whole process. Like Kuki, he thought Higashino Kok was a genius.

But Kokoto Higashino continued: "I am not humble, I am not a genius, I am just prepared well. The novel we wrote together was guided by Mr. Keigo, and I added my own ideas. It also conforms to many current reality, which is also called a trend. In addition, it is the midlife crisis of editor Hiroki."

"I bet that when he sees a very promising work, he will be very attentive and want to publish it very much.

Even though this author is a newcomer, even if this author is in Okinawa, even if this author plays him a little in the manuscript."

The last two sentences, Koko Higashino looked at Mr. Keigo, and his eyes were filled with confidence.

After hearing this, Mr. Keigo couldn't help but sort out the front and back.

Everything has plans.

The novel "After School" deliberately did not give the ending, which was like a fishing bait.

Because he knew that Masao Kuki was in a midlife crisis now, he would definitely take the bait as long as this bait was fragrant enough.

After that, all the performances were performed.

The purpose is what Kokushi Higashino said, and he was unwilling to only take 4,000 yen per manuscript.

"This country is the first." Mr. Keigo couldn't help but exclaim.

However, Kotoshi Higashino immediately mentioned another key, "As for these two endings..."

Before he could finish writing, Mr. Keigo sighed again, "How can you practice it? You still won by you."

After hearing this, Kotoshi Higashino didn't dare to laugh loudly and wrote: "Actually, sir, don't be upset. This work was originally excellent enough to win the 1985 Ranbu Award, but that was in 1985. For example, the 'visual strong x' you used is no longer new, and it is even more interesting than Trace Learning."

Mr. Keigo nodded, agreeing deeply.

In mystery novels, sometimes the real core is actually the murderer's motive.

In the 1985 "After School" that Mr. Keigo originally prepared, the protagonist Maejima cracked the secret of the death of Takei and Murahashi. The key is why Keiko Sugita did this.

She is not the murderer, she actually wants to help others.

There was a girl named Miyasaka in the class. She was very beautiful. When she was staying together, the two male teachers saw her entertaining herself.

Miyasaka committed suicide in shame and anger, but failed. What she said was that she always felt that she would be visually strong by these two male teachers. In their minds, they might use various means and tricks to play with her.

This is the motivation.

In the past, it would have really surprised people.

Just one reason is that I want to kill someone, and it is so complicated and secret.

Now, obviously it won’t work, vision or something is too old-fashioned.

The same goes for these two endings.

This time, Higashino started writing, and Mr. Keigo guided him from the side.

Mr. Keigo also certainly felt that it is appropriate to conform to the characteristics of the current era.

But, in terms of the ending.

Mr. Keigo strongly advocates the first type.

This first ending has a faint feeling, and don’t forget that the current male protagonist is a high school student and has no wife.

So, even if Mr. Keigo wants to arrange one, the hero is stabbed to death, he can do nothing.

However, Higashino strongly advocates the second one.

Mr. Aso killed the male protagonist. This arrangement even when he was written out at that time, it surprised Mr. Keigo.

This kid is too cruel!

However, Higashino Kok's explanation is very simple.

When I started writing, there was a sentence like this on the paper.

"What I wrote is nothing more than the popular elements of the current era, which can ensure my success."

Mr. Keigo looked at this sentence and couldn't help but think.

What is popular in RB today?

The latest "traces" are the taboo relationships between teachers and students, the young love between men and women on campus, murder in secret rooms, the responsibilities of RB education, what aid is there, etc.

These, these... are all hot topics at the moment.

Keigo Higashino's face changed again and again, and then he said, "saikyo, don't you want to use classical aspirations?"

In classical Chinese aspirations, this meaning is also very clear.

Kokoto Higashino smiled and a few words were added on the paper, "I just want to make money."

Sure enough, Mr. Keigo knew that was the case.

Keigo, the resentful spirit, had witnessed the whole process of how Kotoshi Higashino fooled Jueki before.

When Kuki asked the word "despair", Higashino Kok shook his head.
