Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

In order to conduct in-depth research on the island country's literary market, Sawayama Haruno spent a lot of time and effort conducting investigations in this area.

After thinking about it carefully, the preparation work has been almost done, and it is time to start trying to write a book.

The reason why I didn't start writing from "Hear the Wind Sing" is because Sawayama Haruno thinks it would be better to write "Norwegian Wood" in his current state. This is also what I thought about repeatedly while taking a shower just now.

Anyway, the total number of words in this book is not very large, only about 200,000 words in total.

If Sawayama Haruno doesn't think about other things and works at full speed, he can finish it in about a month.

After all, his writing skills have also been improved. Regarding the plot of "Norwegian Wood", although I can remember the overall picture, I still remember most of the important content.

If all else fails, just add in the twisted relationship between myself and Maki Mana now. With the existence of "skill improvement", it won't be too ugly.

"I just feel that my mood is inexplicably complicated."

Sawayama Haruno stared at the screen for a long time in silence.

After a while, he exited the document, created a new one to record his own content, and began to write for the first time on it tentatively.

It was not as obscure and unfamiliar as he had imagined, but when he touched the keyboard, he realized for the first time so clearly that his fingers were "alive".

As long as he kept recalling some of the plot of "Norwegian Wood" in his mind, he could concentrate on typing beautiful characters on the keyboard with his ten fingers.

Even after writing for a while, he felt that with his current brain speed, he was not able to use his hand speed to the maximum extent.

What is even more amazing is that not only is his writing speed extraordinary, but even the quality of the previous content he has already written is almost the same as the original "Norwegian Wood".

——This also once again proves the power of system rewards.

Sawayama Haruno was addicted to this state and couldn't extricate himself. The procrastination symptoms he had in the past were gone at this moment. After an unknown amount of time, he wrote a lot of "magnificent" words on his computer.

When I looked at the time again, it was already around 11:40 in the evening.

“Have you been writing for almost two hours?”

He rubbed his wrist and didn't feel any soreness or pain, and he couldn't help feeling a little complacent.

In two hours, I wrote a plot of nearly 10,000 words.

It is already considered a great success. If it were in his previous life, he would not even dare to think about it.

Of course, this is due to both the system and the fact that he plagiarized the text.

The combination of the two makes the efficiency so high.

At this rate, 200,000 words would actually take less than a month. As long as he could spare the time to work hard, he could submit the manuscript directly to Kodansha in half a month.

But then again, people still need to balance work and rest. At present, Sawayama Haruno's life pressure is not very great, so there is no need to finish the copying and moving of texts within half a month.

After saving the document and shutting down the computer, Sawayama Haruno stretched.

There was no sound of TV outside the bedroom. He thought for a moment, picked up the cup and went outside to get a glass of water.

As expected, Miyazawa Maki was not in the living room.

The other person's door was closed, but light was coming through the gap at the bottom. It was obvious that he was not asleep yet, but just playing with his phone.

"It's better not to bother each other tonight."

Sawayama Haruno calmly filled his cup with water, then quickly returned to his room.

I have to go out tomorrow, and now it's almost time for me to rest.

In Miyazawa Maki's room.

The girl lay helplessly between the quilt and the bed sheet.

Yes, she hasn't put on the quilt and sheets yet. She can be said to be too lazy to be at home.

The mobile phone was casually placed aside. The sound coming from it was a recorded video from a game blogger, but Maki Miyazawa only took a few glances and felt uninterested, then threw it aside.

The reason she didn't turn it off was that she felt a little noise in the room would make her feel less lonely.

孤独

Humans are creatures that are afraid of loneliness.

Although there was a man just across the wall from her, for some reason, she always felt that the relationship between the two of them had never really been close.

We did the same thing last night and just now, so what went wrong?

"If I keep going on like this, I won't be able to understand what the difference is between me and my sister." Miyazawa Maki muttered to herself.

Not to mention finding the differences, she couldn't even get into her sister's role when she was in love.

There wasn't the kind of relationship between Sawayama Haruno and me that I had imagined.

Of course, there is definitely a sneaky and exciting feeling, but what is missing is probably the sweet feeling of being in love?

“What should I do next?”

Miyazawa Maki's eyes were a little blurry.

She touched the clothes under her body, and after hesitating for a while, she decided to take them off slowly.

Although I have released "Water Magic" once today, it is not enough.

In fact, Miyazawa Maki was not so lazy from the beginning.

The reason why this happened probably has to do with what the twin sisters experienced when they were young.

At that time, she was just a little slower than Mana in getting started in these areas, so her family had the stereotype that she was not good enough.

As time went by, even Maki felt that she might not be able to do it, and she became tired of this kind of thing and gave up on herself.

Even now, looking at herself brushing her teeth in the mirror, she had only one thought in her mind.

"No matter what I do, you'll all think I'm terrible, so I might as well just stay terrible."

Miyazawa Maki thought.

What's wrong with being bad?

Who said that people must work hard to live a meaningful life?

In her opinion, no matter what choice you make, it’s just life, and the important thing is to participate.

Participation is important - this is a famous saying from the Olympics, but it is often misused as a reason to force others to "do it".

If everything should be experienced, then the experience of not experiencing it should also be valuable. In fact, it is even more precious.

Similarly, there are already so many people who work hard to live, so aren’t those who choose to live an easy life also precious?

In her opinion, people who cannot see this point are truly ignorant and do not understand.

"That's right, it's not me who is wrong, it's this world"

Maki Miyazawa spoke incoherently while holding a toothbrush in her mouth.

This scene happened to be seen by Sawayama Haruno who had just come back from drying clothes to put the basin away.

The frizzy-haired girl had just put on a smug expression when she saw Sawayama Haruno standing at the door in a daze in the mirror.

Miyazawa Maki's face turned red instantly.

"you you."

"Yes."

Zeshan Haruno suddenly said: "It's not me who is wrong, it's this world."

"Shut up!"

Miyazawa Maki's roar echoed in the bathroom.

This kind of chuunibyou-like remarks may be fine to motivate yourself internally, but if others find out, it will be a social disaster!

How come this bastard hangs out the clothes so fast? If I had known this, I wouldn’t have gone crazy and acted like a middle school student for no reason.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble." Zeshan Haruno coughed twice, put down the basin in his hand, and urged, "Hurry up and finish it. I'll go out and change my shoes and wait for you."

"Get lost," Miyazawa Maki said with a hint of humiliation.

Zeshan Haruno is quick to follow advice.

Not in a rolling way, of course.

He had also experienced the age of middle school. Who hasn't experienced such a time? Especially for a nation like Xiaorizi, who has a middle school nature, not to mention that Maki Miyazawa's mentality tends to be childish.

Fortunately, this kind of personality is the type that gets angry quickly and calms down quickly.

After Sawayama Haruno put on his shoes and waited at the entrance, a short while later, Miyazawa Maki, who had changed her clothes, appeared in front of him.

But the other person had a cold face, which was completely different from the look on his face when he made the silly remarks in the toilet just now.

"Let's go."

Miyazawa Maki said coldly, "I checked my phone. The time you agreed to meet her yesterday was 2:30 p.m., so if we go there to have a meal now, it will probably be a little after 1 p.m., so there's still plenty of time for shopping."

Now she just wants to vent all her anger by going shopping.

Besides, she hadn't been shopping for a long time, and she wanted to buy not only food but also some cosmetics.

After all, the small suitcase that Sawayama Haruno brought back didn't contain too many cosmetics.

You know, girls pay a lot of attention to taking care of their faces. Those bottles and jars of makeup and skin care products can fill up a small table.

Although Miyazawa Maki thinks she is naturally beautiful, what if her skin becomes worse than before due to poor maintenance?

Not to mention that there is someone who looks exactly like her, making them a natural reference.

Even if her skin has only deteriorated a little, others can easily tell the difference just by looking at Miyazawa Mana.

For Maki, this was more painful than death.

She can become more beautiful than Mana, and can tolerate being the same as Mana, but the only thing she cannot accept is that she is not as good as Mana.

Sawayama Haruno didn't think too much about it. After going out with Miyazawa Maki, he felt the bright sunshine outside and frowned uncomfortably.

This sunlight is really hard to accept.

Fortunately, the station was not very far away and they arrived there soon.

After the train brought them to Ginza, Sawayama Haruno stopped for a moment at the door of a convenience store outside the station.

"I say, Maki."

He touched his chin and suddenly asked, "Do you want dessert?"

".ha?"

Miyazawa Maki was also feeling a bit listless due to the scorching heat. She said weakly, "That's just nonsense! If you don't want dessert, why would I follow you out here to buy food?"

"That's right. Then let's go buy two ice creams first."

Sawayama Haruno pointed to a convenience store not far away and said with a smile, "Consider it my treat."

".Eating ice cream before a meal? Or on an empty stomach?"

"Would you care about this?"

Sawayama Haruno looked at her in surprise.

Hey, hey, hey girl, you are rebellious to this extent. You stay up all night long and lie on the sofa without caring about your body after eating. Do you still need an ice cream before the meal?

"Just eat."

Miyazawa Maki gritted her teeth, turned her head away and snorted, "Anyway, I just feel hot, I don't feel very hungry. As long as I don't feel hungry, then I'm not hungry, right?"

"That's probably the most sensible thing I've ever heard from you."

Sawayama Haruno smiled and led her towards the convenience store.

The island country’s convenience stores have an astonishing variety of ice cream flavors, especially in a place like Ginza, where there is a huge flow of people.

Sawayama Haruno simply picked a convenience store close to the station. There were three large refrigerators in the store filled with various ice creams. There was even a huge homemade ice cream machine on the left side of the entrance to the convenience store. Judging from the options for adding small toppings on the side, it should be the type of DIY ice cream.

Without much hesitation, Miyazawa Maki quickly picked out the flavor she wanted. Seeing this, Sawayama Haruno also took an ice cream exactly the same as hers.

After paying, before leaving the convenience store, Miyazawa Maki anxiously tore off the packaging bag and stuffed the ice cream that was emitting white cold air into her little mouth.

She stuck out her pink little tongue.
