Even if Yukino wasn't with Kira Yoshikage, how could she have friends?

It's weird no matter how you think about it!

-----------------

On the balcony, Yukinoshita Yukino saw the ambulance approaching with sirens flashing below, and turned to the living room:

"I'm leaving now. When the ambulance and paramedics get here, you guys should know what to say, right?"

Nakano Ichika also saw the ambulance coming and explained:

"Don't worry about that. Our father is the chairman of this hospital."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the few people with some surprise, but soon she was relieved.

Since the five Nakano sisters can live in such a high-end apartment, how could their parents be ordinary people?

Since the dean is also their father, there is no need to worry about how to explain it.

"As for you."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Sakurajima Mai, "You can stay with me for a while."

"Ms. Yukinoshita, please wait a moment!"

Nakano Satsuki stopped Yukinoshita Yukino who was about to leave and said nervously:

"Well, actually, there is still one evil spirit that has not been dealt with completely..."

"Anything else?" Yukinoshita Yukino frowned slightly.

"There is a mirror in my room..."

Nakano Satsuki whispered to Yukino what happened to her, including how she was imprisoned in a mirror by a ghost in the mirror, and that the ghost transformed into her appearance to deceive Kira Yoshikage, but was discovered by Kira Yoshikage and eventually rescued her from the mirror.

These experiences made Nakano Ichika and the others feel both scared and grateful. They were scared because they almost lost their sisters, but they were grateful that Kira Yoshikage arrived in time and saved them.

But when they thought that the mirror was still in May's room, they couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a long time, and looked at May with a very complicated look:

"That's not an evil spirit."

"Huh?" Nakano Satsuki looked surprised.

"The evil spirit in the mirror has been destroyed by Kira-kun, and the mirror itself is just a medium. Of course, the mirror itself also contains a certain amount of psychic power, similar to the legendary sword of Ama-kurosakumo and Yasakani no Magatama. According to Kira-kun's classification, these items should be collectively referred to as psychic items."

After a pause, Yukinoshita Yukino warned seriously:

"For you, keeping the mirror is actually a good thing. You can use it to fight or even kill evil spirits. But at the same time, owning such an item is also very dangerous."

"It's like an old saying in the Celestial Empire: A man is innocent unless he possesses a treasure."

"So, don't ever tell anyone about that mirror!"

Seeing Yukino speak so seriously, Mayu couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Is it such an important thing?

Then why didn’t Kira-kun take him away?

Is it because Kira-kun doesn't need it? No, how could Kira-kun not need such a powerful thing?

So, Kira-kun stayed behind to protect them, right? Or did he hope that she could use the mirror to protect the other sisters?

Probably the latter.

After all, although Kira-kun looks like a bad boy, he is actually a very gentle person.

And in the end, they didn't even know how Kira-kun knew they were in danger. Although they wanted to ask for help, the signal at home was completely blocked, and they couldn't send any information or leave the room.

And Kira-kun seems to be able to predict the future, is this his psychic ability?

Predicting the future is a bit exaggerated.

Or maybe he simply discovered that their psychic reaction was too high, so he came to solve it along the way.

Are they the ones who just happen to be trapped here?

Although she didn't want to admit it, May felt that this possibility was higher.

In other words, it's all just coincidence.

However, regardless of whether it was a coincidence or not, it was an indisputable fact that Kirara-kun saved them once again.

This time I have to repay you!

"Ms. Yukinoshita."

After being silent for a long time, Nakano Yotsuba asked anxiously:

"Is there anything we can do?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at them with a hint of surprise, as if she had thought of something, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised:

"I don't need you to compensate me for anything. As for Kira-kun, you will pay the price sooner or later."

"Before that, if you have any needs, you can come to me. Unless I can't solve it, don't bother Kira-kun again."

"This is the only thing I ask of you!"

The girl's tone was extremely serious, and the five Nakano sisters also became nervous.

Chapter 67 Are you here? If you start, you must be a clown

Thursday morning, Shuchiin Academy, first year class C.

"Have you heard? It seems that a murder occurred near the school last night."

"Eh?! Is this true?"

"It's true, it was reported on TV, wasn't it? I heard the victim was a young woman!"

"Eh? Then won't we be in danger too?"

"Go home early after school today!"

Amid the girls' somewhat frightened chatter, Kira Yoshikage returned to his seat and pulled his buzzing cell phone from his pocket.

A large number of unread information pop-up windows instantly came into view:

"17-year-old teacher, 'Infinite Stratos' has successfully advanced to the first round of selection, congratulations~!"

"Also, I have good news for the 17-year-old teacher. Do you want to know?"

"Hey~ Why didn't the 17-year-old teacher reply to the message? Is she not interested?"

"17-year-old teacher, this is really important news!"

After sending several messages in a row without receiving a reply, Kagurazaka Ayame was obviously getting impatient.

Just as Kirara Yoshikage was about to reply, the other party sent another message:

"Are you there?"

Although people often say "If you start with a clown in Japan, you will definitely be a clown", this rule may not apply in Japan.

Because Japan's communication software basically has a very "humanized" function - read but not reply.

For example, when Kira Yoshikage just opened the chat box, the original unread message will immediately become 'read', so that the other party will know whether you have not seen the message, or have seen the message but do not want to reply.

Kirara Yoshikage put away his thoughts and replied briefly:

"In order to prevent others from disturbing my sleep, I turn off my phone at night."

"Hey~ As expected of a high school student, it's good to have a good habit. Unlike me, I'm used to playing with my phone for an hour before going to bed. I feel like I'm completely ruined."

"Also, my boss seems to be insane. He occasionally sends me work messages in the middle of the night. It's really outrageous! Work matters should be discussed during work hours. Why does he have to discuss work during his break or in the middle of the night?"

Kira Yoshikage sent a message:

"So, what's the good news?"

"Ah~, the 17-year-old teacher is really inhumane."

“The good news is that Infinite Stratos is now available for signing in advance!”

"If you log in to the Dengeki Bunko website now, you can also find the works of the 17-year-old teacher and read them directly~!"

"If the 17-year-old teacher wants to sign a contract, please remember to contact me in advance. I will definitely welcome the 17-year-old teacher in person when the time comes!"

Although it is only the first round of selection, there will be a second round, a third round and the final round. But for the editors of Dengeki Bunko, the "war" has actually started at this moment!

Editors need to find the shining gold among the large number of submitted works and put them in their pockets!

But for editors, this also carries certain risks. For example, a work that is treasured by the editor may not even make it to the second round of the grand prize. And such a work that cannot even make it to the second round of selection is not even eligible for publication!

If an editor signs a large number of such works that cannot even pass the second round of selection, his performance will naturally decline, and he may even be fired by Dengeki Bunko.

Therefore, most editors of Dengeki Bunko will choose to sign authors from those works that have passed the third round of selection.

Firstly, although the works that pass the third round of selection may not necessarily enter the finals, they are at least eligible for publication. Even if the final sales performance of the work is not ideal, the editor can at least get a published work.

Secondly, there are only six or seven books that can enter the finals, but there are dozens of editors in Dengeki Bunko. The finals will almost certainly be divided up by veteran editors, and newcomers will never get a chance.

Therefore, new editors who want to stand out can only choose from the works in the third round of selection.

Not only will you not make mistakes by doing this, there is even a high probability that you will find gold!

For example, in Kira Yoshikage’s previous life, there were two most typical examples.

One is Kamachi Kazuma's "A Certain Magical Index", which passed the third round of selection at the 9th Dengeki Novel Award but ultimately failed to make it to the finals. But it turns out that the "A Certain Magical Index" series has a circulation of over 30 million copies, making it the work with the highest total circulation in the world, bar none!

In contrast, the award-winning work "Qili" that year was not even qualified for animation in the end.

Another example is Fushimi Tsukasa, whose first work, "Alice No. 13," only made it through the third round of judging when he submitted it for the 12th Dengeki Novel Award and failed to make it to the finals.

But it turned out that his follow-up work, "My Sister Can't Be This Cute," had a cumulative circulation of more than 500 million copies, far exceeding many excellent works that won gold medals or even grand prizes.

Four years ago, when Kagurazaka Ayame had just entered the industry, she, like other editors, selected contracted authors from those works that passed the third round of selection. But in the end, she found that those authors who wrote excellent works would give priority to signing contracts with her more famous predecessors, and the remaining works, even if published, would have dismal sales and were not worth showing off.

This also forced Kagurazaka Ayame to take a risk -

Since she can't choose from the outstanding works in the third round, she will choose from the works in the second round or even the first round!

Although the risks of doing so are high, the profits are also considerable.

For Kagurazaka Ayame at that time, if she lost, the worst that could happen was that she would lose her job, but if she won the bet once, it would be enough for her to become famous!

And this is indeed the case. Two years ago, Kagurazaka did not take the usual path. When the first round of selections just came out, it approached Senjumura Masaru, who was still a new author, and signed "Genza Demon Sword Ten".

In the end, this work lived up to expectations, not only making it to the finals and winning the grand prize that year, but also in just two years, its circulation has exceeded 1400 million copies, and it has great hope of competing for the top spot in the historical sales rankings!

As expected, this work made Kagurazaka Ayame a hit, and she continued to do the same for the next two years.

Although Kagurazaka Ayame also understands that success once does not mean success every time, she is confident enough in her own vision. She believes that even if the work she likes cannot create a miracle like Senjumura Masaru, it will definitely make it to the finals!

Although Kira Yoshikage could not understand Kagurazaka Ayame's thoughts, the editor's impatience could be seen between the lines - she was very anxious to sign a contract with Kira Yoshikage, as if she was afraid that he would be snatched away by other editors.

Kira Yoshikage: "Are you free this afternoon?"

He has always adhered to the principle of finishing today's work today.

"some!"

Kagurazaka Ayame replied almost instantly, and sent an address to Kira Yoshikage:

"I will work overtime until 17 o'clock at night, so you can come anytime~! Also, remember to call me, this is my phone number..."

Kira Yoshikage had just finished reading the message from Kagurazaka Ayame when a banner immediately popped up on the top of his phone:

"Kira-kun, can we talk for a minute?"

Kira Yoshikage looked at the note, Mayday.

That was his note to Nakano Satsuki.

Nakano Satsuki was sitting behind Kira Yoshikage, but she knew that Kira Yoshikage didn't want to be disturbed, and even more so didn't want to attract attention, so she took out her mobile phone and secretly sent a message via LINE.

"Okay, what do you want to ask?"

Nakano Mayu typed a line of words on her phone with some trepidation:

"Um, the mirror in my room...Do you know what to do with it, Kira-kun?"

"Yukino should have told you that it was a psychic item, right?"
