Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home Chapter 475

   Chapter 475 Exposure

  Shi Yu is very angry now, not only because he is being kept in the dark, but also because he is being teased.

   Looking at Machida Yuanko, who was smiling, she frowned in dissatisfaction and said:

   "It's too much, so you've been lying to me? You lied editor-san...!"

   "Liar to you? Oops~ Why are you so surprised? Besides, I don't seem to agree to your termination of the contract, right?"

   "But you obviously talked to me so many times!

   Not only did he talk to me until midnight, but there were so many meetings in this conference room,

   He even called the leaders of the headquarters to testify. Are all of this a lie to me! "

   "Headquarters leader?"

   Machida Yuanko put his index finger on his chin, looked up at the ceiling as a memory, and then said with a loud voice:

   "Ah~ you're talking about Minister Yamashina, that's true.

   That is a troublesome person, I really don't want to ask him if I can, I owe a troublesome favor~”

   "Please don't digress! I saw you show the application to that person with my own eyes. What the **** is going on?"

   Saying so, Shi Yu put her arms on the table and stabbed the opposite side with her cold eyes. The long jet-black hair behind him seemed to be automatic without wind, showing a tendency before entering a fighting stance.

   Machida Yuanko was neither panic nor busy, just chattered.

   "Ah~ Although that uncle is very troublesome, but this time I can only ask him.

   Yeah~~ To say that this time he can control the storm to an acceptable level, he is really important...

   But that's right, after all, that uncle is already the director of the animation business department, otherwise, it's really hard to deal with it by myself.

  By the way, you don't know Xiaoshi yet. He was the one who made the decision to cut your work in half, so that person is still an enemy, so it doesn't matter if you don't need to treat him as a partner~”

   "...Sometimes it's an enemy and then a friend, so! Is that person the accomplice that Machidsan brought to play with?"

   "Well, that's how it turned out.

  Although the original purpose of asking that uncle for help was actually to delay the decision of the top management,

   But I didn't expect his acting skills to be surprisingly good, even such a smart little poem didn't show it~~”

   "To actually use this method on high school students! It's so despicable, are you still adults?"

   Looking at Shi Yu with a sullen face, Machida Yuanko laughed as if from the heart.

   "If you really want to say that, I'm so merciful that I haven't even bothered with you about this. Are you qualified to come and question me? Xiaoshi."

"I…!"

   "There's not much time left until the final volume of the novel is released, and the work is about to be animated soon.

  We have put so much effort and effort into this, and our feet hurt when we walk every day, and even the pain is so painful that we don't want to wear high heels anymore.

   Even so, we have to keep visiting our partners, just in exchange for a little more support and popularity.

   As a result, at this time, you queried, brought out, understood, resolved the contract, on which side is the excess? "

  In an instant, silence spreads.

   Machida Yuanzi's tone was very calm. Except for the last sentence, there was not much harshness in his words, but it clearly stated a truth.

  -"Your willfulness is equivalent to obliterating all our previous efforts."

   Shi Yu deeply understood this point, couldn't help biting his lips and lowered his head, speechless.

   After a while, she raised her head again after she was in a good mood, and met the gaze on the opposite side.

   "...that kind of thing, I won't deny anything, but even if I want to leave, I will finish "Love Metronome" well before that, and try not to affect the editorial department."

   She said, her cold voice filled with a thoughtful taste, she must have made relevant ideas long ago.

   Both Kato Yusuke and Machida Yuanko heard this.

   The former shook her hand quietly, while the latter sighed helplessly.

   "That's why I said that your decision affects more than you."

"I know…"

   "No, actually you don't quite understand."

"…What does it mean?"

   Machida Yuanko rubbed his eyebrows slightly tiredly, and then showed a kind smile like watching a child, and said:

   "I'm not saying this to you to criticize you, I just hope that through this incident, you can become more mature in the future, that's all, Xiaoshi."

   When Shi Yu's pupils were shaking because of these words, she turned her attention to the side and said with a sigh of relief:

   "And Kato-san, thanks to your help to stop Xiaoshi this time, I want to thank you for that.

   Please continue to work hard as a catalyst for small poems in the future... Of course, I am referring to the good side. "

   Kato Yusuke nodded, "I understand, you've been working so hard, Miss Machida."

   "Oh~ cough cough, then, will my daughter be handed over to you in the future?" Machida Yuanzi cleared his throat and deliberately put on a serious look.

   "Please don't pretend to be someone else's mother, you stupid editor-san."

   Shi Yu blushed slightly, glared at her neither lightly nor severely, expressing condemnation and dissatisfaction with her eyes, and her expression seemed a little unhappy.

   It doesn't look like he's really angry, but it looks like he's showing his true feelings in front of someone close to him.

   Machida Yuanzi couldn't help but smile and hurt her: "Aiya~ the lethality of your eyes is far worse than before? Xiaoshi."

   "I don't want to be angry if I can, but you always deliberately provoke me, so I have to accompany you."

   "Huh? But fundamentally speaking, Xiaoshi can't stand provocation, right?

   In this way, the usual small poems are always awe-inspiring and refusing to see others.

  As a result, as soon as he encounters something about Kato's younger brother, he will become in love in seconds. Not only will his IQ be zero, but his actions will also become willful and impulsive... Don't you think you are too easy to handle? "

   Hearing her say this, Shi Yu instinctively wanted to talk back, and then she lowered her eyes slightly as if thinking of something, and whispered:

   "...Yu-chan, he is different."

   Kato Yusuke instantly felt that the strength in his hand increased a lot, and the girl held him tightly, as if she was afraid that if he let go, he would run away.

   Machida Yuanzi couldn't see their little movements under the table, but it didn't prevent her from seeing the difference in atmosphere between them, and sighed with mixed feelings.

   "...Really? That's fine." She said, "Then, since the problem has been resolved and Xiao Shi is so happy, I won't say anything."

After    finished speaking, he asked again: "Do you have anything else to do next? You can go back if you have nothing to do."

   "Miss Machida." Kato Yusuke put something on the table at his feet, stretched out his hand and pushed it towards her.

   "Please accept these if you don't mind."

   "Huh? What are these?"

   "Some special products of Chiba Prefecture, thank you for your care all the time, I hope you can accept them."

   "Hey~~Then I'll accept it rudely. In other words, this shouldn't be considered a bribe, right?"

   Shi Yu interrupted her joke.

   "In that case, it will be given to you before the conversation, not now? Can you stop making such a bad joke?"

   "Yeah~ I'm sorry for making a ridiculous joke."

   Machida Yuanko said with a smile, and then sent them out of the conference room, took them to the elevator, and returned to the editorial office.

   "Editor-in-chief Machida."

  A female editor came up and asked, "I'm so sorry, can I ask a question?"

   "Question? Okay, what's wrong?"

   "Yes, the person who was in the conference room with you just now, is that teacher Kasumi Shizi?"

   "Well, she's right."

   "This, that, may I ask about the rumor about Kasumi Shiko-sensei..."

   Machida Yuanzi understood, but did not answer immediately, but raised his eyes and looked around.

  I don't know when, the editors in the office all gathered around, everyone looked worried and focused on her, obviously having a common concern.

  -"Will Xia Shizi terminate the contract with the Undead River Publishing House?"

   More or less, these people have participated or are participating in the animation planning of "Love Metronome".

   And now, they are all eager to know an answer.

   After all, once something really happens, the work in hand may also be aborted, so no one can ignore it.

   There was a sense of depression in the air, as if there was a heavy cloud over everyone's heads.

   Faced with such a situation, Machida Yuanko was silent for a while, then took a deep breath and said clearly in a cheerful tone:

   "Although I know what everyone is worried about, what I want to say is that the incident of Kasumi Shizi-sensei's termination of the contract is just a rumor, so your worries are unnecessary, have you heard it clearly?"

  The office was quiet at first, and the female editor followed by asking, "This, is this true? Editor-in-chief Machida!"

   "Of course." Machida Yuanko replied decisively, gave her a positive smile, and then lifted the thing in her hand.

   "Not only that, Teacher Kasumi Shizi also brought condolences this time, let's come and share it together~"

   After hearing this, the editors finally let go of their dangling hearts, and their faces showed a sincere smile.

   Machida Yuanzi put the special product on the empty workstation that was not used, and let everyone pick it up by himself. He also took a pear and went to the tea room to wash it.

   When she came back, there were sounds of eating everywhere in the office.

  People swept away their previous seriousness and chatted with each other, and the atmosphere became very relaxed.

   Seeing this, she didn't stop her, and joined in with a smile.

   After all, under the influence of Shi Yu, the mental state of everyone in the editorial department has been very tight recently, and a proper relaxation will also be beneficial to future work.

   Even Machida Yuanko himself was actually under a lot of mental stress.

   On the one hand, she not only has to deal with the superior leaders, but also to appease the emotions of these subordinates, and she cannot show weakness in front of everyone.

   On this basis, the progress of the work at hand cannot be left behind.

Only she herself knows the complex taste of   , which is really not enough for outsiders.

   Fortunately, the matter was finally resolved satisfactorily.

   It should be said or not, although Kato Yusuke is the culprit behind Shi Yu's impulsive actions.

   But at least in the matter of making Shi Yu change her mind, she is still very grateful to Kato Yusuke.

   While thinking about this, he took a bite of the pear in his hand.

  After the crispy taste, the rich and full juice overflows in the mouth, and the just right sweetness awakens the taste buds well.

   Not only makes people feel good physically and mentally, but even the stress in my heart is swept away.

   "So sweet!", "Delicious!", "This pear is delicious!".

  The office echoed with everyone's admiration and laughter.

   Just as everyone was chatting happily, an exclamation suddenly rang out.

   "—No way! This is true!?!?"

   The voice was full of surprise and disbelief.

   looked up and saw an editor sitting at a workstation staring at the computer screen in a stunned manner, as if he had received a huge impact.

   "What's the matter, what happened?" Someone couldn't help asking, but that person didn't respond, as if he was in a state of absentmindedness.

   "I'll take a look at me." The previous female editor walked over, cast her curious eyes on the computer screen, and read out the content on it.

   "That...the highest copyright transaction in the Heisei era, the doujin queen Akasaka Zhu Yinhao invested 100 million yen to start the copyright of the popular work "Chainsaw Man"..."

  After a pause…

   "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!?"

   She couldn't help screaming.

   The high-pitched and sharp voice spread, and the sound was a bit harsh, but no one cared about it.

   After a brief silence.

   "Boom" all of a sudden, everyone rushed forward, scrambling to gather around the computer and huddle together.

   followed by—

   "It's true!!"

   "One, one hundred million yen—!?"

   "No way?? Why haven't you heard about such a big thing from the people in the comics department?"

   "Wait, there seems to be more... "According to reliable sources, the author behind the popular comic "Chainsaw Man" is actually a student at a private university in Tokyo!". "

   "Speaking of which, the author of "The Chainsaw Man" is Fujimoto-sensei, I remember that, isn't that, Kasumi Shiko-sensei's friend...?"

   Someone quickly grabbed the point, diverting everyone's attention from the amount.

   After this reminder, the editors all unanimously focused their attention on a certain person.

   In the light novel editorial department, there are not many people who know the true identity of "Teacher Fujimoto Tree", but only one person is absolutely clear!

   That is the current Deputy Editor-in-Chief, Machida Yuanko, who unearthed the super rookie "Kasumi Shiko".

  ““Is this true!? Miss Machida—??”””

   Facing the gazes of everyone, Machida Yuanko, whose heart was shaking, forced a smile.

  The invisible pressure pressed down like a mountain, causing the body to sink.

   She tried to say something, but kept her mouth shut for some reason.

   "I am willing to bear all the liquidated damages in full."

   "I will create a more free platform for her, so that she can let go of her hands and feet and show her talents."

   The conversation from ten minutes ago echoed in his ears.

  I felt arrogant before...but now! But it's completely different!

The picture in   's mind quickly regressed, and the content of the call with Shi Yu last night suddenly came to mind.

   "Is it really worth it to do this for Kato-san?"

   "I don't know either, but..."

"but?"

"I want to be the support of the back who seems to have nothing, just like he once helped me when I was most desperate. Even if it was just unintentional, the traces left in my heart are real, that's all. "

  What the two of them said later, Machida Yuanzi can't remember clearly, but this sentence is very clear.

more importantly-

   "Xi..."

   Machida Yuanko muttered to himself, the expression on his face changing constantly.

   "Sorry everyone, I still have something to do, I'm sorry!"

   Ignoring everyone in the big office, she walked quickly to her office.

   There is only one thing she needs to confirm right now!
