There is something wrong with my infinite flow teammates!

"Even if you suddenly compliment me, it won't change my opinion of you. Please pick the key points."

Although Kasumigaoka Utaha's tone was relatively polite, her face was still cold: "Sir, the question I want to ask you is, you clearly saw through the outcome of my book, and this book brought you strong discomfort, why did you choose to read it patiently, and even gave an interesting comment at the end of the first volume?"

"I'm not complimenting you. You really deserve praise for this. In fact, I think I should first confirm your creative mindset. After all, it was my subconscious impolite behavior that hurt you. Since you intend to apologize, you should analyze the problem thoroughly."

Kitahara Sora took a sip of water, and after seeing the other party nod, he continued, "It can be seen that Miss Kasumi Shiko should be a high school student like me. Under the premise of being a student, you still choose to create, so your mentality is worthy of my confirmation. The author's creative attitude is the most critical point in determining the quality of a work."

Kasumigaoka Utaha stared quietly at the expressionless man in front of her, and after a long while she nodded as if in compromise.

Just as she was about to speak, the other party spoke first, which made her wonder if this guy did it on purpose. She could only glare at him fiercely again.

"Okay, no need to say more, I've already made a rough guess." Kitahara Sora tapped the table with his index finger, making a rhythmic 'tapping' sound.

"I have read quite a few novels. As a reader, I feel involved in the protagonist's life. My mood changes with the protagonist's life story. I feel happy when the protagonist is happy, sad when the protagonist's love is sad, angry when the protagonist's lover cheats, and even want to kill the betrayer on behalf of the protagonist."

“I would also think in my heart, what would I do if I were the protagonist? How would I deal with the situation he/she is facing? I would imagine the next plot in my mind, and even imagine it for the author…”

"To make an analogy, if you read a love novel, when the hero and heroine go through untold hardships and finally reach the climax of emotional explosion and confession, when this scene suddenly stops, or just serves as the end of a volume, then while you are looking forward to the next volume, will you also imagine that the next scene is the lovers who finally achieve their goal and kiss each other, or tell each other something even more touching that makes people cry? This is the sense of substitution."

Kasumigaoka Utaha thought about it, nodded slowly, and calmly replied: "This is a normal psychological state of human beings. Humans always have expectations for things that can satisfy themselves. What does this mean? Is it related to my book?"

"It's very relevant." Kitahara Sora nodded slowly and continued, "When the sense of immersion turns into a strong sense of anticipation, and when this expectation reaches a critical point and is not met, you will actively look for stories that want to satisfy your needs."

"If you haven't found it after searching for a long time, you will slowly become disappointed, but you still can't let go of the beauty in your heart. You can only imagine it in your mind. After a long time, you have completely imagined that "beautiful story" in your mind. Is that right, Teacher Kasumi Shiko?"

Hearing this, Kasumigaoka Utaha finally widened her eyes and stared at the handsome boy in front of her, with a lot of waves in her heart.

Although what he said was very blunt, it was indeed very pertinent.

I have indeed read quite a few novels, and I was looking forward to a love story or a story that would move me, but after visiting many bookstores, I couldn't find a single book that would satisfy me.

So I could only slowly enrich the touching plot in my heart, and slowly the story became fuller.

"So, since no one can write the story you want to read, you have an idea in your mind, why not try writing it yourself?"

"When this idea suddenly pops up, you are startled by yourself. The sudden idea is like a spark, spreading rapidly in your heart and out of control..."

Kitahara Sora spoke cheerfully, "You started to spend more time imagining the story in your heart. You were deeply moved by your own story. Even before going to bed, you were thinking about a certain plot, imagining the touching scene of the hero and heroine hugging and crying. When you sketched that happy picture in your mind, you were moved to tears. You couldn't sleep because of this, so you decided to write this story."

Kasumigaoka Utaha stared at Kitahara Sora blankly, opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. Her sharp tongue, which could usually make the dean speechless, seemed so pale because she couldn't refute it.

What the guy on the other side said was absolutely correct, with almost no deviation!

Did he have similar thoughts? Or was he also the author? But from the few conversations he had with the shop owner, we can conclude that he was not the creator, right?

"What follows is a thriving desire to create and express yourself. You tell yourself that you must write this story because it is a really beautiful story. You want more people to see your story and spread that beauty, right?"

"So what?" Kasumigaoka Utaha still had no expression on her face, but she didn't even notice that her fists on her plump thighs were clenched.

There was a crisp tapping sound, and the sound of small leather boots hitting the ground reached Kitahara Kong's eardrums. This was her little action whenever she was anxious or trying to suppress her anger.

She would use this kind of body language to ease her intense emotional fluctuations, as she can be impatient at times.

“This is a big problem.”

Kitahara Sora raised the second volume of "Love Metronome" that he had just bought.

"From my explanation just now, combined with your reaction, I can infer that you are a man of action. And from the fact that you chose to take the initiative to talk to me, and looking at your expression when you were 'insulted' before, I guess you must be quite popular in school, and you are an excellent student. Only this kind of personality can create you."

"Oh?" Kasumigaoka Utaha calmed down her emotions again, and her charming eyes were fixed on Kitahara Sora who was explaining seriously. She was suddenly interested.

"Is it too arbitrary to guess what kind of person I am based on this alone? Or is it correct that the 'classmate' who dares not reveal his name is Feng Zhiqi's student?"

"You have a proud personality. You felt greatly insulted when you heard me comment on your book. You must be proud inside. You are very beautiful, which is an asset. But I am sure that this alone is not the key point for you to become a 'glass heart'."

Beiyuankong ignored her question and sneered, "Only beautiful girls with excellent grades would have such a sense of pride. A bitch who thinks she is beautiful doesn't seduce men to get rich, but comes to write novels because she has nothing to do, right?"

Once again ignoring the slight teasing in the girl's eyes that turned into anger and surprise, Kitahara Sora continued, "So you must also be a person who strives for perfection, otherwise the failure of this book wouldn't have turned you into a 'stray dog'. You just don't want to face failure, but you want to know the reason for failure. Maybe you have never experienced frustration."

"Oh!"

"Don't you want to listen anymore? Then I'm leaving..."

"Keep talking!"

The trembling girl looked at Kitahara Sora who was trying to get up "impatiently", and she wanted to smash the cake in front of her into his face more than once.

But it’s not possible. I can’t even scold him, because he must know what his problem is, so I can only endure it.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's teeth were chattering. "I'm really sorry for being a stray dog, so now can you tell me? Where is the problem with this book?!"

"Oh, you are amazing, Miss Kasumi Shiko, you can endure this."

Kitahara Sora shook his head helplessly, his expression returning to seriousness again: "As someone with excellent grades and a very cute appearance, you are the object of worship and admiration in school... To be honest, you are too confident, no, it should be said that you are too conceited."

Kasumigaoka Utaha stopped talking. She took a sip of water and listened to the man's answer with utmost calmness. If he could not give her a satisfactory explanation, she would call the police immediately.

Kasumigaoka Utaha suspected that this guy knew her and came here on purpose to humiliate her.

"Is it so easy to write a novel? Although you have done so much preparation beforehand, such as character creation, plot outline arrangement, etc., have you ever considered the readers? Just by switching from the reader's position to the author's, can you ignore the readers' feelings?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, your writing is excellent, the characters are full of emotion, the hero and heroine dance vividly on the page, and the characters seem to jump out of the book at the next moment. But you have not considered the feelings of the readers, and you haven't considered it until now, so why should I respect you?"

Kitahara Sora's face was serious, but his tone was calm but there was an extremely stern feeling: "Other people's books are all about stories that readers like to read, but you, you just write stories that you like to read. Other people often only lay the groundwork for a few plots before there is an explosion. There are at least 3-4 climaxes in one volume. What about you? You spent a whole volume laying the groundwork, and you still want to be famous? Are you kidding me, Teacher Kasumi Shiko?"

"Readers of passionate novels want to see the protagonist suffer humiliation at the beginning, then gradually become stronger and finally defeat the villain; readers of romance novels expect the relationship between the hero and heroine to gradually warm up, and this process can be full of ups and downs, or warm and plain."

“Readers of harem novels want to see the exciting plot between the hero and each heroine, and finally achieve the goal. Readers of love triangle novels want to see touching and sad love, the kind of love that can never be achieved.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha's emotions are also very mixed right now. She has thought about this possibility, but has never been able to get confirmation, and she doesn't want to admit it.

She thought it was an excellent story, and every time she thought of it, she would tell herself through self-hypnosis that readers would see the bright spots if they persisted, and her plot would be absolutely wonderful.

But being pointed out so blatantly still made her feel frustrated, and even angry.

"Why did I say that I endured the discomfort and finished reading the first volume? Tell me what you wrote in the first volume. I saw the male protagonist getting up every day, brushing his teeth and washing his face, going to school, and then participating in club activities, working hard to achieve his goals. The funny thing is that the male protagonist's psychological activities when washing his face and brushing his teeth are described in great detail."

"I've already gotten more than halfway through the first volume, and I didn't even know that the two heroines were actually 'Sayuka' and 'Makoto'. Apart from showing up in front of the hero from time to time, can you tell me what the difference is between them and the nameless squad leader?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's brows gradually frowned, and she thought seriously about Kitahara Sora's explanation.

"I know you've laid a lot of foreshadowing. There are many seemingly insignificant but very clever little foreshadowings in the story of the hero and heroine from strangers to acquaintances, and then to 'acquaintances'. But don't you know that most readers read the transitional chapters at a glance? Even if you write it in 10 hours, they will finish reading it in less than three minutes. To be honest, I used to be like this when I read books. I would only read the climax plot carefully."

"The only explosive point in your book is when 'Makoto', who is in poor health, suffers from 'increased abdominal pressure' after physical education class and becomes incontinent in class. After seeing this, the male protagonist, after a fierce ideological struggle, runs out to get a bucket of water during class without saying a word and pours it on her in a self-destructive way. To be honest, this explosive point is very cool, but... you didn't even focus on the subsequent description?! Then this girl asked for leave to be hospitalized? You started to lay the groundwork for 'Sayuka''s plot again? Are you crazy about laying the groundwork?"

"Let's talk about Sayuka, who is a good friend of Shinichi. She misunderstood the hero and started to target him everywhere. After all, even the closest friends can't say such things. In the end, during Shinichi's tearful explanation, her guilt slowly turned into curiosity about the hero..."

"But these two 'climax' plot points are actually arranged at the end!" Kitahara Sora smacked his lips and said, "You are really mysteriously confident. How many people do you think can persist until the second half of the first volume, or the end of the first volume?"

"It's them...it's them..." Kasumigaoka Utaha clenched her fists tightly, her calm expression finally unable to hold back, and the sound of her feet hitting the ground became more and more urgent.

"You think your story is great because you know the subsequent plot, you know there will be a big explosion after the dullness, why don't you put that plot at the beginning? So you don't understand readers at all, you don't understand writing at all."

Looking at Kasumigaoka Utaha who once again put on the mask of pain, Kitahara Sora continued to attack mercilessly: "I asked you some nonsense before, but from these nonsense I also came to the conclusion that your mentality is indeed not worthy of respect, at least as a reader's position is not worthy of respect."

"You are just writing for your own pleasure, without considering the inner thoughts of the readers. The people who can persist in reading this book must be pure otakus who take anime and the two-dimensional world very seriously. Only they will read every word carefully."

"Only they can see that the setting of 'Makoto's' frail health will definitely lead to plot changes, and only they know that the setting of 'Sayuka's' self-righteous cold beauty will definitely have a reversal, so only they will insist on reading to the end, because they have almost mastered the two-dimensional world, to the point of fanaticism. Any readers who just 'like' to read novels will definitely not be able to persist. They may feel that your hero has an inner drama even when brushing his teeth, which is poisonous."

"I……"

"What do you mean by 'I'? Don't you want to know where the problem lies? This is just one of the points."

Kitahara Sora tapped his fingers on the book "Love Metronome" which was still wrapped in transparent plastic on the table, while Kasumigaoka Utaha stopped moving under the table.

"Secondly, you wrote this book just to satisfy yourself. This is why I guess you are admired for your excellent grades. You think that what you think is good must be good, so you seriously wrote this book that can satisfy yourself. When the result is in front of you, you still refuse to accept your fate. In fact, you can't accept failure. You think you are a perfect existence, so you go to Akihabara every week, observe the bookstore, and get close to the boss, trying to save your ridiculous dignity."

As Kasumigaoka Utaha listened attentively, her eyes gradually darkened, her expression became grim, and she lowered her head slightly, like a character in an anime who was about to turn evil, with the upper half of her face covered in gloom.

"Third." Kitahara Sora stared at the almost dazed Kasumigaoka Utaha, sneered with sarcasm, "Do you think otakus are fools? Or have you looked down on those otakus from the bottom of your heart from the beginning?"

"shut up!"

Kasumigaoka finally broke down her defense again, and held the glass tightly in her palm. Her slender and beautiful fingernails turned white, and her whole body was shaking as if the water in the glass would splash onto the face of the extremely excessive man opposite her in the next moment.

“Never look down on anyone!”

"Really? I don't believe it." Kitahara Sora looked relaxed, leaning back on the sofa. "Although I have never been an author, I know that the ratio of men to women who read novels in Japan is quite extreme. Boys far outnumber girls, right?"

"Your book's protagonist is a boy, but he actually wanted to start the story with a pseudo-harem, and ended with the hero choosing one of them. To be honest, it's already amazing that you managed to make the first volume boring, and it didn't collapse."

"Don't look at me like that. I haven't read the second volume yet, but I can probably guess that you won't write an open ending, let alone a harem, because you're a female author! As a girl, you actually use a boy as the protagonist and bring him into your writing. That's why I said, do you think otakus are fools?"

Generally speaking, the protagonist is a miniature of the author, the author's second personality. The author's second personality can be extremely evil or upright, but his or her way of thinking is always based on his or her own gender, which cannot be changed.

Apart from those individual transgender authors, I have read quite a few excellent works before. The well-written harem novels among them made me feel very excited. When I finally found out that the author was a girl, I was so shocked.

There are also many male authors who write for women, but how many of them can write well and become popular as transgender authors?

Very few!

Obviously, Kasumigaoka Utaha doesn't have this ability. Anyway, after reading her book, I felt that the male protagonist was extremely sentimental and too effeminate.

But he can occasionally do brave things, like when he discovered that the heroine 'Makoto' was incontinent in class, he chose to take on everything for her himself, which is the style of Japanese works.

The male protagonist can be as cowardly as a dog and can behave like a sissy, but he will always stand up at the critical moment. In other words, this is what the male protagonist is like in the eyes of Utaha Kasumigaoka.

The gimmick of a beautiful young writer cannot be the key to big sales.

Every book contains personal opinions. That is the author's will and his own values, which is inevitable.

But what is Kasumigaoka Utaha's private life? In her heart, she is a girl who is full of love, and she has never been in a relationship. It can be said that her understanding of boys is completely from books.

Even so, she still writes about a transgender harem? A girl who has her mind full of love thoughts will definitely not have a harem or an open ending. She will definitely give stomach medicine at the end.

Moreover, she clearly chose her own readership. She wrote otaku literature because the number of male novel readers far exceeds that of female readers, and Japanese female readers are classified as "rotten girls", and their number is quite large. She could not write gay literature that would make herself disgusted, so she chose to write about otaku men.

Isn't it still treating the otaku as a fool? Is the otaku really stupid? The otaku has a wall and an apartment in the second ring road. Is the real otaku stupid?

Some people might be scared away when they see the title 'Beautiful Girl Writer'.

Anyway, based on Bei Yuankong's understanding of his previous life, no female author who writes awesome twist novels would use her gender as a gimmick in a high-profile manner. For example, the news that the author of the most famous apocalyptic harem novel was a girl was revealed by others after she became famous.

"So, you are just trying to satisfy your creative desire and gain fame at the same time. If it was just pure passion, why would you care so much about grades when you have nothing to do? Do you go to Akihabara every week? Then your creative desire is satisfied, but as for fame, the slap in the face is really loud, right?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha stared blankly at the young man who was talking in front of her. Her heart was beating wildly under his 'calm' expression, and a fear that made her shudder spread from the bottom of her heart.

She didn't know, she herself didn't know the truth, maybe she even deceived herself.

But what he said seemed to make some sense, no, every word he said was brilliant!

But when a person reveals his inner thoughts that he is not even aware of, it becomes an extremely ugly scar that cannot be looked at directly. When did this scar appear on her? Has she gotten used to the vague and yearning looks from her female classmates?

Have you gotten used to boys stopping you at the school gate or at the courtyard to confess their love, and the lost and inferior look on their faces after you coldly reject them? Do you like their funny performances?

Because I am so outstanding...I want to make myself even better. Do I enjoy this?

That’s not right. I don’t care about those things. I just want to become better, to take on challenges, and to share the beauty.

"Because you think you are so awesome, so writing is a piece of cake. You are just 'taking advantage' of the otaku readership to satisfy your new vanity. So, you are not treating your readers as fools, what are you doing?"

"Take my advice, Teacher Kasumi Shiko." Kitahara Sora's tone was not so harsh. He said softly, "Don't write novels anymore. You will starve to death sooner or later. If I'm not mistaken, your grades have dropped, or you have had many arguments with your parents."

"Or maybe your classmates have started to whisper about you because you've become 'ordinary', and the boys you rejected have started to say bad things about you behind your back. You can ignore the gossip, but you have to be responsible for yourself."

Kasumigaoka Utaha also quietly looked back at the expressionless handsome man. She was no longer surprised. She thought that the man opposite her might be a genius. A deep feeling of powerlessness and frustration filled her body and mind.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was having trouble maintaining her composure. Her body began to tremble slightly, and tears were already filling her eyes.

Is it true that beneath her beautiful packaging, she is actually an extremely ugly woman?

"My friend has written novels. It's impossible for a person to do two things at once. If you want to write a good story, then you can't maintain excellent grades. Reality is reality. At least I've never seen a writer who suddenly became popular pretending to be a student. Studying is tiring, and writing is also tiring, you know."

Kitahara Sora felt a little bit sorry for the sorrowful Kasumigaoka Utaha. He thought that what he said was indeed a bit too much and it was not consistent with the original work.

Kasumigaoka Utaha is a person with a sharp tongue, but she can’t seem to be sharp when facing herself. At least her fighting ability is much worse than Yukino’s.

In the original novel, she slept in class, wrote novels at night, wrote scripts for Midoriya, and had the best grades in the grade. If this were true in real life, wouldn't that be nonsense?

Why is Yukino able to top the academic charts?

She only sleeps about five hours a day. She is extremely self-disciplined and only reads her favorite classical novels or other famous works during class breaks. She only relaxes her tense nerves on the weekend by going for a half-day horse ride.

It's strange that Kasumigaoka Utaha can get the first place in the exam even though she sleeps in class. Is she a genius with an IQ of 180? When I was in school, I picked up the pen that fell on the ground in math class, and suddenly I felt that the teacher was talking about something incomprehensible.

So there is no need to guess, the teacher has talked to her, and her parents probably have also had an argument with her.

In the end, she actually no longer had that ridiculous vanity, she was just unwilling to accept the result. She wanted to prove herself and also to her parents.

There is another point. After his own speculation, Kitahara Kong had a general idea in his mind.

Even if the original plot was followed and this book was revived by Tomoya Aki, it is estimated that many problems would arise in the later stages. As an author, she is too immature. Even if her writing skills are excellent, what's the use of having good writing skills?

A debut novel by a genius high school girl writer? Any author who can write such a stomach-churning plot as "Unreachable Love" must be a veteran who has been punished a thousand times.

This is funny.
