Crayon Shin-chan: As someone who's traveled through time, all I want is a huge reward!

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yu stretched, glanced at the manuscript on his laptop, and made up his mind.

With his current physique, staying up all night occasionally is not a problem at all.

Chapter 245: Book Signing Event Imminent

Lin Yu has made his decision. He plans to write the manuscript all night after he gets back, and finish this work as soon as possible before moving on to the next one.

This feeling was as if Lin Yu had been transported back to the time when he was in debt.

I just got off work.

Shinnosuke Nohara and Ai Sootome ran up to Lin Yu.

"Yu, let's go home together!"

Shinnosuke Nohara told Toru Kazama and the others today that he came to school in a Batmobile, which made them all incredibly envious.

So, when school was over, I wanted a few people to be envious.

"Not today, your sister Nana is coming over."

Lin Yu smiled and politely declined Nohara Shinnosuke's offer.

"Teacher Lin, didn't you say you were going to take me to Westworld?"

Sootome, the little creditor, has spoken.

"We can only go to Westworld after Blackie buys the stuff."

Lin Yu did not deny it, and said to Ai Sootome.

"And it won't affect our work discussions. Those equipment and stuff should arrive by tonight at the very least."

"Going to Westworld later won't be a problem."

Just then, Nanako Ohara walked over with light steps.

"Ayu!"

Upon seeing Lin Yu, Nanako Ohara waved.

Not far away, Matsuzaka Ume instinctively became wary upon seeing Ohara Nanako.

However, upon seeing the expression on the other person's face when interacting with Lin Yu, she immediately relaxed her guard and even felt a hint of disdain in her heart.

As someone with experience, she could tell at a glance that Nanako Ohara's relationship with Lin Yu hadn't progressed to the same level as hers.

If Ohara Nanako was somewhat of a threat before, she is no longer the same person now.

She's already surpassed her in progress!

"Sister Nanako!"

Shinnosuke Nohara saw Nanako Ohara and, as always, rushed over, wishing he could just throw himself into her arms.

Unfortunately, Lin Yu saw through her little scheme and grabbed her by the collar, putting her into the stroller.

"Director, could you please help take Ai to the Nohara family today? I've already spoken to her driver, Mr. Kuroki."

Lin Yu gestured for Ai Sootome to go up as well, and then spoke to Bunta Takakura.

"That's fine, as long as you agree."

Ai Sootome knew that the Batmobile didn't have that many seats, and nodded obediently.

"Thank you, Director."

After seeing the two little ones off, Lin Yu and Nanako Ohara got into the Batmobile.

As soon as he got into the car and closed the door, Nanako Ohara took out a small box and handed it to Lin Yu.

"Ayu, you forgot about this yesterday. My dad asked me to bring it to you, saying it has made him feel much better."

Lin Yu opened the small box and saw the horse talisman lying quietly inside.

Because he was healthy and no one around him was sick, this thing was just left in the system to suffer, and it was basically never used.

If it weren't for the presence of the "old man" Ohara Shiro in the team, Lin Yu probably wouldn't have thought of bringing it out this time.

"Really? If it works, that would be great."

As an elderly man, Ohara Shishiro naturally suffered from various chronic illnesses.

The horse talisman can be used to cure his illness.

"But you came to see me today not just to return this to me, right?"

Lin Yu looked at Ohara Nanako with a smile and said.

"Of course not, there's something else important, like your standalone book!"

Ohara Nanako said happily as she took out the contract that Lin Yu had signed earlier.

The space above, which was originally blank in the "Works" section, is now filled with the title "Grave of the Fireflies".

Holding the contract, Nanako Ohara began chattering away to Lin Yu.

In her words, Lin Yu's work received unanimous praise from the library.

So everything regarding the individual volumes went very smoothly.

Today, Nanako Ohara came to see Lin Yu to tell him that his work had begun printing.

Originally, there should have been a process of communicating with the illustrator about the illustration.

However, Lin Yu had no such thoughts at all.

He simply wants to be a ruthless typing machine and make money as quickly as possible, leaving professional tasks to professionals.

Everything happened naturally and as quickly as possible.

"The first batch of prints will not be too many, about 50,000 copies, and it will take about a week to complete."

"However, it will take time for publicity and promotion. If we really hold a book signing event, it will take about half a month."

"Half a month?"

Lin Yu nodded slightly. This time was neither too long nor too short, and it was still within Lin Yu's acceptable range.

He was well aware that without proper publicity, even if his work was of high quality, not many people would come to his autograph session.

It's important to know that the most important thing this time is the autograph session.

This is crucial to whether Lin Yu can quickly acquire a sum of money in a short period of time.

If there are even a few more fans at the autograph session, and he manages to collect more treasure chests, that would be a huge gain.

"This is already very fast. The library has temporarily put aside many things and started preparing for your work."

"I heard that there seems to be some other relationship involved."

Ohara Nanako winked at Lin Yu, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Upon hearing her explanation, Lin Yu immediately understood what was going on. If nothing unexpected happened, it was probably due to Ai Sootome again.

She had previously said that she wanted to be a pillar of the show.

It actually came true, as I expected.

"It must be Xiao Ai, the one you just saw. Her family is a conglomerate..."

Lin Yu gave Ohara Nana a brief introduction.

"I didn't expect you to even know a tycoon, Ah Yu."

"That has nothing to do with me. Xiao Ai was attracted by Xiao Xin. I don't have that much charm."

"At most, it can only attract you, Miss Nanako."

Inside the small car, Nanako Ohara blushed slightly upon hearing Lin Yu's somewhat ambiguous words.

"Attracting something..."

When faced with these somewhat embarrassing words, Ohara Nanako instinctively wanted to refute them.

But when she met Lin Yu's clear eyes, she couldn't utter a single word.

Seeing Nanako Ohara's shy expression, Lin Yu smiled but didn't make any big moves. Then, a "click" sound was heard.

Then Nanako Ohara saw that the windshield in front of her was covered and blocked by a black iron plate.

The entire Batmobile instantly transformed into an iron box, making it impossible to see inside from the outside.

Faced with this change, Nanako was momentarily stunned, but she quickly came to her senses because Lin Yu had already come to her side. The distance between them was so close that they could clearly feel each other's breathing.

At this distance, unlike the last time when Ohara Nanako took the initiative to touch and leave immediately, this time...

This time, under Lin Yu's initiative, Ohara Nanako quickly became immersed in that domineering yet sweet invasion.

[Ding! Nanako Ohara's affection level has increased. You have received 1 Purple Treasure Chest.]

The familiar system notification sound seemed a little out of place at this moment.

However, it doesn't matter. Lin Yu didn't intend to take down Ohara Nanako here. He simply wanted to return the favor and savor the crimson that had escaped before he could properly experience it last time.

After a long while, the two slowly separated, and the atmosphere inside the car had become extremely ambiguous.
