Persona: Devil Summoner

"Because in this way, the man can be ordered to leave the house with nothing when the divorce occurs. And if there are children, you can also apply for him to continue to provide child support."

Jiang Tianwei shut up. It was obvious that Niijima Sae had never thought about getting married. Who would marry a scumbag just to extract money from him? You are also a wicked woman at this level!

But looking at the profile of Niijima Sae as she worked seriously, she probably really didn't have the time to talk to me about this kind of topic.

At this time, Jiang Tianwei seemed to realize that I had become the most idle person in the family? !

It makes sense. He is a freshman in high school this year, so he doesn’t have to consider further studies. He has a good stepfather who can go back to inherit the family business at any time. He has a good physique, so even if he gets crazy, seven or eight hundred men can’t do anything to him. He has a high popularity, so even if he drinks during a live broadcast, people will praise him as a great response.

Such a person would certainly feel carefree...

This shows that people in this world do not share the same joys and sorrows, and the two sisters just thought he was noisy.

Jiang Tianwei continued to watch the next episode...

"Fuck, this man is such a scumbag - Oh my god, how could a man be such a scumbag..."

Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but sigh again, and at the same time, he deeply understood why everyone in the two-dimensional world thinks that the three-dimensional world is dirty and filthy. You make this kind of Korean drama every day, so it's no wonder that everyone thinks so! This is vilifying men and objectifying men! Is this how men are!

He wanted to refute it, but when he thought about what he had done, he lowered his head...

"Tsk..."

But, if the tree wants to be still, the wind will not stop. If you, Jiang Tianwei, want to stop, you have to ask others if they agree. Sure enough, the president of the Xindao Student Union was shocked, raised his head from the sea of ​​questions, and glared at him unhappily: "You are so free! If you are free, go out and find something to do - how about this, you go to the bookstore and buy me two sets of exercise books!"

"Huh?! Still need to learn?!"

Jiang Tianwei looked at Xindao who was concentrating on his studies and felt emotional. It turned out that a top student is a top student!

But what should I do after I get out?

At times like this, I should really... find a friend!

Chapter 704: If you can’t drink, then punish yourself with three skewers of kidneys

"So, you came to me after you were kicked out of the house? Come on, do you think I have lots of free time?!"

As Sakamoto Ryuji roared like this, he openly showed his displeasure. He bared his teeth, glared, and looked like a little hooligan.

Jiang Tianwei also had his own ideas. He raised his hand and called the waiter, "Give the guy across the street two skewers of kidney and ten more skewers. And give him one portion of your... premium lamb chops as well."

"That's right, Boss. I'm just very free! Wow, I don't know how to kill this extra time, so you guys are here to treat me!"

O man!

Jiang Tianwei sneered in his heart while admiring the traditional Chinese Sichuan art performed by Long Si: face changing.

Two people are now at a barbecue stall in the night market, with mutton skewered on iron sticks, accompanied by cumin and chili powder, giving off a particularly strong and taste-bud-stimulating aroma.

"So, Boss, you asked me to come here today, it must not be as simple as just eating skewers, right? Is there some mission that you want me to go with you?"

Long Si looked at the table with only two people and couldn't help but start to guess.

Although the basic principle of the Phantom Thieves is collective action, to be honest, Ryuji is still looking forward to the feeling of traditional superheroes, where one person, or at most two people, act together to fight criminals in the dark.

"Indeed, I came to see you today for something, but can I ask first what's wrong with your face?"

As Jiang Tianwei said, Long Si's face today can only be described as tragic.

His face was covered with many plasters, and through the white gauze, one could see bruises and purple spots.

"Don't mention it. I was beaten."

"Who beat you? Do you want me to help you get revenge?"

"Ah, no, no, it's all in the past."

Long Si was guilty and broke into a cold sweat. He couldn't tell him that he asked someone to inflict the injury on his face, right? Today, Long Si and Amamiya Ren went to talk to their original track and field club.

Ryuji was the ace of the track and field club at first, but because he contradicted Kamoshida, he had his legs broken, and Kamoshida also used this as an excuse to abolish the track and field club. Ryuji himself always felt sorry for the track and field club, and everyone in the track and field club also had some resentment towards him.

Because everyone knew that Kamoshida was suppressing the track and field club, but everyone thought that if they held back, they would still have a chance to participate in the competition and prove themselves. As a result, Ryuji acted impulsively, and the entire club was gone.

So, Ryuji took the initiative to apologize and used the classic sentimental routine from Japanese dramas and comics: "Come on! Come and hit me! If that will make you calm down!"

So, the gang really beat him up. Although no one said anything, everyone probably thought: I have never heard of such a request in my life!

Originally, Long Si thought that everyone would hold their heads and cry, but unexpectedly, they really held their heads and cried, but it was just incoherent...

This sad story tells us that what you understand the plot to be like may not be how the plot actually develops.

For example, Long Si now thought that Jiang Tianwei invited him to dinner privately because he either needed his force or his support, but he didn't expect...

"Long Si, what do you think you would do if seven or eight girls liked you and wanted to confess to you at the same time?"

"what?"

Ryuji was stunned. What kind of a question is this? Seven or eight girls like me at the same time?! I wouldn't dare to dream of such a big thing! Even in galgames, there are rarely seven or eight people who can be pushed down... ahem, to capture the heroine!

"No, what is this question? A psychological test?"

"Don't worry about it, just say it. Otherwise..."

As Jiang Tianwei spoke, he put his hands on the plate and pulled the freshly baked skewers and kidneys towards him. Long Si quickly grabbed his hand and said, "Oh, that's all I say. Of course I have to choose the most beautiful one!"

“They are all beautiful!”

"Then there must be a distinction between high and low, right?"

Jiang Tianwei thought for a moment and shook his head: "No. They are all very good-looking."

"Then choose one..."

Ryuji was about to speak when he suddenly realized that he was in a public place, so he lowered his voice a little and said, "Choose the one with the best figure and the biggest breasts!"

Jiang Tianwei nodded thoughtfully: This way, we can pass up a few options. For example, the Fangze sisters and Bai Zhongzhidou... Oh no, when Zhidou doesn't need to wrap his chest cloth... when he is not disguised, he is very attractive...

"Anyway, aside from the body shape issue, what then?"

"Eh?! Even their figures are the same? What kind of equal brides are these?! Let me think...then we must choose the richest one, right?"

"Wow, you are such a materialistic person. How can you use this kind of thing to classify women? Think about it, if you and someone else were courting a girl at the same time, and the girl rejected you because you were poor, would you be very sad?"

"Yes, it is a little bit... No, what exactly do you want to ask me, Boss?"

"I also want to know what I'm thinking!"

Jiang Tianwei is very confused now, so he is so entangled.

Long Si saw how uncomfortable he was and knew that he was very troubled, so he - started to eat skewers. There was no other way, the mutton fat would be very greasy after it cooled down, and it would not taste good!

"Long Si, if I told you that in the situation we just assumed, you couldn't let go of these seven or eight beauties, would you ever think about starting a harem?"

"Yes I do."

Long Si said while eating skewers.

"Ryuji, don't you think that a man who dated several women at the same time is a bit of a scumbag?"

"Of course he's a scumbag, what's wrong? But aren't we still talking about fantasy? I was just fantasizing about having a lot of girlfriends, I wasn't really cheating - ah, could it be that some scumbag wants to change his mind?"

Ryuji's reasoning ability is also good, but the level is still very average. His speculation makes sense, but if you reason more carefully, you will find that it is unnecessary to change a scumbag's heart.

Jiang Tianwei raised his eyebrows, realizing that something was not right. He asked tentatively, "I'm just saying, let's assume, suppose. If there is such a man, and he is your close friend, and there are many girls who admire him and like him. He also likes these girls very much. And he even has sex with them. What do you think?"

Long Si's eyebrows were raised higher than his own, and his eyes popped out: "This cannot be tolerated! This kind of man must change his mind! He must change his mind drastically! What does he take love for granted!"

"Say, that's right..."

"This kind of man should be beaten before he changes his mind, and he should be beaten again after he changes his mind. He should be beaten to his knees and made to kneel down and apologize in front of those women!"

Long Si became more and more excited as he spoke, throwing jabs in the air.

"I, I don't think I've committed such a heinous crime..."

Jiang Tianwei's forehead was covered with sweat, and he secretly swore in his heart that this kind of messy emotional problem must not be exposed even if he died!

Because... after you are exposed, you will most likely end up being deserted by everyone...

When Long Si heard this, he finally realized that something was wrong...

"I said, you wouldn't..."

"I don't have it, so don't talk nonsense! Even though we know each other well, I will sue you for defamation if you talk nonsense!"

"Are you talking about Lianlian? I feel like he's become more popular with women recently..."

Hearing that Long Si was still so naive, Jiang Tianwei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "No, I just gave an example, just chatting! It doesn't involve reality. Ahaha, you still don't believe Lianlian? How could he date multiple girlfriends at the same time? How can you doubt your friends? Long Si, you should be punished!"

"Right……"

Ryuji nodded, accepting his words, probably without thinking anything...

"Well, I accept the punishment! Waiter, give me three more skewers of kidneys - I'll punish myself with three skewers of kidneys, okay?"

"You're going to use my money to punish yourself, right?"

Chapter 705: Light novel? Isn't that just something that uses a joke as a title?

Being loyal to the trust given to you by others is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation.

It is not difficult for Niijima to get a commission. In this era, if you want to buy a teaching supplementary book, it will never be out of stock. It is not like a hot-selling comic or novel, where you have to wait for the restocking after it is sold out.

Even if we take a step back and assume that the supplementary textbooks you really want to buy are sold out, the clerk can still easily take out a dozen different exercise books and recommend them.

In this world, it is rare to find students who love learning so much.

So Jiang Tianwei chose two sets of exercise books under the strange eyes of the bookstore clerk. With the mood of not wasting time since he was here, he simply started looking for comics in the store.

In the field of literature and art, in fact, all countries are facing similar dilemmas. If we divide various literary and artistic works into different levels, masterpieces are usually the least numerous. The number of excellent and good works gradually increases as we move down to the next level, and the mediocre and not-so-good works generally account for the absolute majority.

It's like a card-drawing game, where you only get a few good things and most of it is garbage.

The masterpieces are definitely the first to be driven by various commercial developments, followed by good works and mediocre works. However, it is not easy to continuously produce high-quality works.

Therefore, whether it is the publishing industry, the adaptation industry, or other related industries, they all have to lower their standards step by step...

Japan's animation industry is the most obvious example of this.

To put it simply, the masterpieces have all been made by the predecessors, and there are not many good and excellent works that have not been animated. So, there are so many people waiting for their turn in their own animation company! What should they do? The company goes bankrupt? Impossible! Therefore, they have no choice but to start making mediocre and rubbish adaptations.

Usually, a light novel or comic becomes popular first, and then a large number of copycat works will emerge.

For example, after a certain office worker was reincarnated as a slime, you would be embarrassed to greet people in the different world works during that period, whether it was light novels or comics, if you didn't have a slime. For example, if a certain office worker was reincarnated as a skeleton wizard and ruled the other world, there would be countless works where the protagonists turned into skeletons for various reasons.

There are some good ones here, but most of them are just mediocre.

The reason he thought so was because he was looking at the dazzling array of Japanese light novels in the bookstore and felt that they were all the same. The cover illustrations were beautiful, but after seeing them too many times, they were no longer attractive. The titles of the novels were so long that it felt like they were not titles at all, but just memes.

Most Japanese light novel titles are more like "preface", "introduction" or "summary in one sentence". It gets boring if you read too many of them.

Jiang Tianwei feels that if Japanese novels develop for another 100 years, there will probably be mysterious works with titles of 100 million words, but the main text consists of only 3 words [see title].

Throwing away these useless modern industrial products that were neither tasty nor worth throwing away, he went to the used book section to see if he could find a set of old comics to buy.

The used book section is a good place, because the books there are cheap. And they are often in the corners, so even if you read comics secretly, the owner will most likely not see you.

Walking past the wooden shelves, Jiang Tianwei was looking for a book that suited his taste. Suddenly, as if inspired by the ancient poem "Mountains and rivers are so dense that you think there is no way out, but when you turn around and see willows and flowers, you find another village." He turned a wooden shelf and caught a glimpse of a beautiful girl with outstanding temperament standing in the corner.

She was wearing a simple dark blue dress with star-like patterns on it. Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, embellishing her face as she read seriously. Jiang Tianwei quietly moved behind her to read the book in her hand...

Start with Tianyuan!

Four big characters came into view, and Jiang Tianwei nodded. He had read this book. This is the famous Go comic, "Hikaru no Go"! When it was very popular, many children would deliberately drop the chess pieces in the middle when playing Go or even Gobang, and then say "Start with Tianyuan!" in a cool way, and then cover their mouths with a fan in a serious manner, and then be killed by the children on the opposite side.

“You’re watching it so carefully.”

Jiang Tianwei casually started a conversation. From this point, it was clear that this girl must be someone he knew.

Togo Ichiro, a famous shogi player.

Wait, is there something wrong? Why do shogi players read Go books? If Chinese chess and Japanese shogi are somewhat similar, then Go has completely different rules? It's like basketball and football are both balls, but these two sports are different... Can you see this as a reference?

Dongxiang Yiersan raised his head from the book and nodded to Jiang Tianwei: "I'm just taking a look. Who are you today?"

The girl looked at the book he was carrying and nodded thoughtfully: "You are here to buy study materials. You really love learning. I have to learn from you too."

"Ahahaha, just take a look, just take a look."

Now that things have come to this, Jiang Tianwei couldn't just admit it openly: "Actually, I came here to buy comics. These books were asked of me by my friends. Hahahaha, I'm not going to review them, hahahaha!"
