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

"Humans invented the clock, but became slaves to time. I rest with the sunrise and sunset, and I am the true master of time."

"They say I'm lazy, but little do they know that I'm enjoying life in the most elegant way."

"My beard can measure the breadth of the world, while human rulers can only measure their narrow minds."

"They use complicated language to mask simple desires, while I can express my whole heart with just a look."

"Humans invented the word 'loneliness,' but have never truly understood the beauty of solitude."

The various witty and philosophical sentences, coupled with the satirical plot, captivated Kasumigaoka Utaha.

After she finished reading, she was clearly still not satisfied.

"Amazing, as expected of Genkawa-kun, a true literary giant."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was amazed.

"Thank you."

“That’s why you have so many women around you.” Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at him.

"correct."

Genkawa Yu shrugged, looking as if he had long since resigned himself to his fate.

“Genkawa-kun didn’t refute me.”

The long-haired girl stared intently at him, a strange light flickering in her red eyes.

"Because that's the kind of man I am."

"Very honest."

"What?" Genkawa Yu raised an eyebrow.

I don't dislike honest people.

"That's good."

Volume 4 To the New World: Chapter 36 One Night on the Island, The Girls' Phone Calls (2-in-1 5k)

After sharing their novels, the atmosphere in the room became more relaxed.

The two chatted for a long time, from their creative ideas to the local customs and culture of the island. The topics were endless, and before they knew it, the sunlight outside the window was gradually setting in the west.

"It's past five o'clock..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at the sky outside the window, then at the ladies' watch on her wrist.

“It’s already so late without us realizing it, Genkawa-kun. This is your first day on the island, so you must not be familiar with the roads here.”

"What?" Yuan Chuanyu paused slightly, then immediately understood what she meant.

“I’ve been here for several days now, and I know this place much better than you do. Let me take you back to your guesthouse.”

"OK."

Filming for "Seto Inland Sea" officially begins tomorrow. As the male lead, he must be well-rested and not let any delays affect his performance.

Besides, we still need to eat dinner tonight.

Stepping out of the [Haine House], the evening sea breeze gently blew, carrying a faint salty and damp scent.

After walking for about several tens of minutes, we soon arrived at the main road leading to [Le Lan House].

"Genkawa-kun, are you officially starting filming tomorrow?" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked with a smile, tucking a strand of hair that had fallen across her chest behind her ear.

"What? Coming to visit the set?"

Genkawa Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha don't have any special relationship at the moment, and this situation makes it easier for him to chat with her.

Although they are friends of the opposite sex, they are both creators, so they naturally feel closer to each other.

“Yeah, I want to see how you act.” Kasumigaoka Utaha admitted her thoughts, “Maybe I can even find inspiration for it.”

"Okay, but remember to let me know in advance when you're coming. Otherwise, outsiders aren't allowed near the film crew. There will be security personnel in charge."

"I understand, Genkawa-kun, don't worry."

Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile, her eyes crinkling.

"By the way, once you've finished writing the sequel to 'I Am a Cat,' you must show it to me as soon as possible. I'm really looking forward to the rest."

"No problem, then I'll go ahead and kill my wife Er'er Temple Si."

"Bye-bye, Genkawa-kun."

The long-haired girl crossed her arms and watched the man's figure gradually disappear until she could no longer see him at all before she looked away.

Back at [Le Lan House], dinner was already laid out in the dining room, and the faint aroma of food filled the air.

Haruto Yamazaki was sitting at the dining table, chatting with the guesthouse owner, while his eldest daughter helped set the table.

Upon seeing Genkawa Yu, he immediately smiled and said...

"Hey, Genkawa, you're finally back. I thought you were going to chat with that mysterious, beautiful writer until late at night."

"The filming starts tomorrow, so of course I have to come back today."

"Is it true that Er Yishanwu abandoned wine and developed a tumor in Shaanxi?"

Haruto Yamazaki raised an eyebrow, his expression becoming even more sarcastic.

What did you all talk about?

"It's about writing, what else can we talk about? We're both writers, so we have a lot in common."

After Yu Minakawa sat down, the boss's daughter immediately filled the glass in front of him with juice.

"Thank you."

"If she doesn't leave in the short term, won't you have to see her frequently later on?"

"Are you curious?" Genkawa Yu raised an eyebrow at the gossipy man.

"of course."

"Then you can help me grill the meat first, and I'll answer you after I've eaten my fill."

"Humph!"

Dinner ended in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. While the boss was cleaning up, Yuu Genkawa, Haruto Yamazaki, and Madoka Higuchi returned to their rooms.

I need to get some rest early tonight, since filming starts tomorrow and everyone is taking it very seriously.

Back in his room, Genkawa Yu first tidied up his things, and then went into the bathroom.

The bathroom was fully equipped, and the warm water flowed gently, washing away his tired body and wiping away the fatigue of the past few days.

He closed his eyes, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

About half an hour later, Genkawa Yu changed into a comfortable cotton nightgown and came out of the bathroom.

He dried his wet hair, walked to the window and opened it. The evening sea breeze blew gently, carrying a faint salty smell, which instantly cleared his mind.

Just then, a soft knock came from outside the door.

The "thump thump thump" sound was soft and faint, as if afraid of disturbing him.

"?"

Genkawa Yu was a little puzzled, and then asked.

"Who?"

A soft voice came from outside the door, tinged with a barely perceptible hesitation.

“Mr. Genkawa, it’s me, Enka Higuchi.”

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chuanyou breathed a sigh of relief and took the initiative to go over and open the door.

The moment the door opened, his gaze fell on Higuchi Enka, and then he paused slightly.

The woman in front of me, Higuchi Enka, had changed into a set of very atmospheric pajamas. They were smooth and had a nice drape, with delicate cherry blossom patterns embroidered on the cuffs and collar, and round pearl-shaped buttons. They looked very tasteful.

In March, the temperature on Kanomori Island is gradually rising, with daytime temperatures reaching over 20 degrees Celsius, and even the evenings are not too cold.

Therefore, the girl doesn't look out of place wearing such a light and thin nightgown at all; on the contrary, it makes her skin look even whiter and more radiant, making her incredibly charming.

"What's wrong, Higuchi?"

Higuchi Enka took a deep breath and then earnestly pleaded.

"Mr. Genkawa, aren't you writing a new book? Can I take a look?"

"This is it?"

Genkawa Yu said with a smile, then turned around and walked to the desk to take out a printed copy of "I Am a Cat" and handed it to Higuchi Madoka.

"This is the first 50,000 to 60,000 words I wrote. Take a look and let me know if you have any opinions."

Higuchi Enka took the manuscript with both hands, her fingertips accidentally touching Genkawa Yu's fingertips. Her face flushed slightly, but she still spoke earnestly.

"Thank you."

"Okay, I'll go take a look at the script first."

Just as Genkawa Yu was preparing to find something to do, his cell phone suddenly rang in his pocket.

I glanced at the caller ID; it was Akane Kurokawa calling.

Genkawa Yu glanced at Higuchi Madoka, who was reading a novel, and found that she had actually sat down on his bed.

"..."

Yuan Chuanyu didn't intend to remind her, but instead answered the phone directly.

Because the guesthouse only has three floors, the soundproofing isn't very good. If he goes to the balcony to make a phone call, it's easy for other guests or crew members to hear him, which could easily lead to unnecessary gossip.

Genkawa Yu pressed the answer button, held the phone to his ear, and spoke gently.

"Akane, why are you calling so late?"

On the other end of the phone came Akane Kurokawa's gentle and delicate voice, filled with deep concern.
