The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today
Books Beyond the World * 2
Then I heard a lot from the editor. [M]
Actually, Mr. Editor, the story began when you said that you had seen me before.
"I usually used the coffee shop in front of the station at the time of the meeting with Dr. Unen, but as soon as Dr. Unen disbanded, I said," Togo! 'I've seen him run to you.'
Oh... Sheng Jing. I've met a slightly decent teacher in front of the station. I wonder when it was, but I forgot.
"Then, when I asked for the autograph book, the carrier made a mistake and the cardboard got wet and the autograph book became useless..."
"Oh, there it is, that's not true..."
I remember that. One day, when I went to the teacher's house, the teacher said, "Whoaaaaaa!" I was moving the autograph pen while saying. "I helped sandwich the ink sticker between the back cover and the main text of the book." I miss you... "
"Ahh, that time Togo-kun helped me too, Unaki-sensei... I had already asked the shipping company to come to the place in time, so I brought the book here directly. So, I'll be watching you at that time."
By the way, I feel like I've been seen.
I think there was a time when I went to play when I was interacting with the editor who came by car. I see, that's when it happened.
"So, when I asked you at a later launch, 'Is that Togo?', you said yes."
"... so you've heard of me before?"
Well, somewhat.
The editor laughed bitterly and said a few words... but he talked to me.
"... the psychological depiction of the elementary school students appearing in [human passing] by Professor Uchi is very good. So, when I asked if there was anything I could use as a reference, I replied," I picked up some elementary school students who were attempting suicide occasionally. "
... yes. It was an elementary school student who tried to commit suicide and was picked up. It was me. It was me.
"No, no, that's a crime, isn't it? Are you okay?" I asked, "It's legal! and explained to me."
"Yes, sir, it was legal. It's okay, I didn't do anything illegal.”
"I see, no, now I don't like Uninu-sensei's scandal either..."
"We're grinning a bit at each other's faces..."
"Sometimes, Togo comes out to talk about you." ”Speaking of which, what happened to the elementary school student who tried to commit suicide? 'Then I heard,' Do you mean Togo? Then I'll see you in the library sometimes."
Yeah. Then I remember.
The spring immediately after I enrolled in junior high. I had to study for my high school entrance exam, but before I fell into my first desire, I was somehow in a hard school, and I tried to study in the library... so I reunited with my teacher. I remember that.
"And then I said," How are you, Togo? 'and' Is that character also modeled after Togo? 'Well, I've heard your story sometimes...'
Eh, was there still a character for whom I was a model?
"Ahh, it seems that the elementary school students of [Human Passing] were inspired by Togo-kun, but apart from that, the protagonist of [Star Sleeps] also seems to have a reference to Togo-kun"
...... I'm embarrassed, to say the least. It's embarrassing, but I'll read it later. Two of them.
"However, since neither of them is very happy, Dr. Uchi said, 'I will definitely write the overwhelming happy ending with Togo as the main character...'"
That's what the editor said, drinking tea with a kind of nostalgic, slightly sad face.
... oh, I see. From the editor's point of view, "The teacher who died before I wrote the happy ending I wanted to write" and "The me who died before I was written the happy ending"? Don't do that. It's not such a tragic story, is it?
"Um, I read that."
So, I'll tell you.... and then...
Huh?
The editor raised his face. Wow, I was surprised.
"Um..." "The mochi you painted today is also delicious", but... "
"... I've only heard of conception, that's all." The mochi painted on the painting is delicious today "," I paint on the water ", or" I love the painting! "'or only the title was consulted.”
I see. There were quite a few title candidates.... for me, the first thing I drew was a rice cake, and I like the title.
"But you've read it, Togo-kun... do you have a manuscript?" You have one!? "
"Ah, there is one, but there is one, but please wait!"
Editor, your eyes are twinkling, so you hurry to make a stop. Wait, wait, wait!
"Um, I'll ask the teacher... if it's okay if I let the editor read it to the teacher's uncle..."
"Oh, that's right. I'm sorry....."
I feel relieved because it stopped properly when I hung the stop. This person is a nice and easy person to talk to. The teacher said, "You're a good guy! 'I think I know what you're saying.
"But I definitely want to read it." Let me read it as soon as I get permission. ”
“Okay, I'll ask you a question, please wait.”
... so...
Demon King! Can I ask you to use it?
When I called the demon king, the demon king who was running around the garden said, "Mom! 'He replied and came back.
So I said, "Here comes the editor." The mochi you painted today is delicious, can I give it to you? "'Make the demon king hold the paper. The Demon King squeaked his p * ssy and stretched out his chest. When he grabbed the paper with his tail, he walked away.... it looks like you've gone to the other world through the gate. Hmm, the demon king is smart after all.
Um, well, I'll check on the phone, so please be patient.
"... ah, yes"
The editor glanced at the demon king's interactions with me... and then leaned his neck.
"... that cat is smart, isn't she?"
That's right.
Well, well, I'm sorry for that...! Since you saw the demon king, please accept it as this!
I take a seat and wait for the demon king to come back in front of my room. [M]
Then the Demon King came out of the gate and gave me the paper, chirping and singing.
OK, but I want to make a few changes to the publication, so please retract! And now you're going to give me your new work! It says, 'I can write!' Alright. If that's the case, I'll ask you.
I went back to the editor with the USB memory that the demon king had with the paper in his hand.
“I've got permission. However, there is data called" Revised Version ", and you don't have it now... so I brought the old version and another USB containing another story."
Are there any other new pieces?!
"Ah, yes, I have it."
I can't say that there will be more, but... well, that's it.
The editor exchanged contact information with me and returned with the USB stick. I will contact you after reading it. Then, I might ask the bereaved family if I could publish it, so I need to contact Ishinomi-san.
Besides... I have to go see my teacher first.
So, another world. Take the toothpick to the teacher's house.
Senseiiiii!
"Oh! Togo! Did you meet the editor?!"
"Yeah! He was a good guy!"
"You're right, you're right! After all, I'm proud to be your editor! It's not something I'm proud of!"
The teacher is always more energetic. Probably after reading the letter carried by the demon king, he said, "Aahhhh! It must have said something like '.
"So, we need to make a revised version." Hmm, that's fine, but I don't know what to do with the proofreading... would it be good if you brought me a gelatin with the body that my bereaved family would do... "
Alternatively, would you like me to entrust you with the manuscript?
”Yeah... or maybe I'll tell you the truth.”
... yes.
"I think that's fine." I don't know, I think I noticed it already around Ishino-kai-san. "
As for me... I feel like I'm being selfish, but I'm a little uncomfortable talking to a lot of people with my dead body.
"That's right. That's the corner. I'd like to write to my uncle. The master of the cafe... no, I think he's already noticed somehow. And you, the editor. Yeah. Even if there were four or so people who knew I existed, including Togo, well, that would be fine. Okay."
As soon as the teacher said so, he began to write his notes (in short, he began to write the depiction of "a set of 100 simple notes and envelopes that are extremely comfortable to write on")...... and then he stopped his hand and turned to the demon king.
The demon king was starting to play with the duck toads lined up on his desk. Come on, don't play with food.
"Well, you can think about that after the editor contacts you again." It is used to calculate the stamp duty of the skin of the beaver that cannot be caught and the manuscript that cannot be adopted. For now, let's eat this cute duck toe. Let's do that. "
When the teacher pinched a duck toe, the demon king grunted. I was in line at the corners! Is that a protest? Or is it appetite and expectation... "
I was surprised that the Demon King ate one earlier.
"I guess. This isn't a delicious taste to eat like this... it's a small, round and cute habit, and it's a bitter run of adult face defeat..."
The teacher put the hookinotou back in the bag, and when he got up, he began to walk towards the kitchen. Behind them, the Demon King was chasing after me.
Fukinotou cooking, I'm looking forward to it. It's been a long time since I've eaten, Fukinoto.
That's how we cooked the duck toe, and we ate the spring scented rice.
In addition to dandelions, barbs and white fish are also made into stems, which is the main thing. It is served with white rice served with barbecued miso soup, soaked vegetables and pickles.
"It's delicious."
I see. It's a flavor I want to eat once a year.
When it comes to the refreshing scent of spring that comes to the table surrounded by me, the teacher and the demon king. The demon king also said: "Mom! 'And he was squeaking in a good mood. Apparently, Miso was a favorite of the Demon King.
"...... Miso, I sent it to my uncle every year." If you're overseas, you won't get a lot of Fukinotou, will you? "
While eating, the teacher suddenly laughs.
"I'm sorry, Togo. Please send overseas courier in the form of a letter."
Yeah. I'm sure Ishinokai-san would be interesting.
We ate such evil dinner while relaxing and enjoying the spring. I'm looking forward to it, the reaction of the people who read your letter... "
