Although Kanayuta couldn’t sleep.
But this grand prize.
For novel lovers.
It was a feast.
Especially such an interesting thing happened at the grand prize.
First, she was scolded and became a hot search.
Kanayuta was misunderstood and rushed to the tower again.
Hoshino Kura supported "Firefly Forest" again.
This interesting thing made the audience curious and opened "Firefly Forest" even though they already knew what the story of "Firefly Forest" was.
The next day.
At 7:30.
Takagawa Saku got up, washed up, and had breakfast.
The high school school time in Neon could make him less anxious.
He opened the door slowly.
Just walked out of the house.
Crack——!
A girl also ran out quickly with a piece of bread in her mouth.
It was Saki Kawasaki.
But she seemed to be in a hurry.
She didn’t pay attention to the ground and tripped as soon as she went out.
She lost balance for a while.
"Wuwuwu… Ugh!"
Takagawa Saku stretched out his hand and caught Saki Kawasaki.
But the girl looked at the pair of white and slender hands, and her pretty face suddenly blushed.
She quickly stepped on the ground with her right foot.
She forced her hands to stabilize her body and avoid contact with Takagawa Saku.
Suddenly, the distance between the two was less than 50 centimeters.
The girl’s face turned red to her ears:
"Oh, good morning, Takagawa Saku, what a coincidence."
Takagawa Saku: "…"
Is this the legendary waist-horse combination?
He slowly withdrew his hand, "It’s quite a coincidence, let’s go."
"……"
Walked out of the neighborhood street and came to the main road.
Coincidentally, the Sobu Line long train bathed in the morning light passed by.
Kawasaki Saki, holding a piece of bread in one hand and a box of milk in the other, her skirt fluttering in the wind.
Gradually, the surroundings were filled with the chats of students on their way to school.
"Have you read the Hakusensha reward announced yesterday?"
"I read it, and teacher Kanayuta really made me laugh to death. She is really wronged!"
"But I have to say that it’s not just "Firefly Forest" that’s good, the quality of this award is really high."
"I didn’t get enough sleep at all, I’m so sleepy!"
"……"
Everyone was chatting excitedly.
"Takagawa——!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.
Kawasaki Saki was the first to react.
She was slightly stunned.
Then she skillfully came to the inside and continued to eat breakfast under the cover of Takagawa Saku’s side.
Then Zaimokuza Yoshiki was not surprised, he patted Takagawa Saku.
"Good morning!"
"Ah, Zaimokuza, Hikigaya,Totsuka, good morning."
Maybe they came running.
They stood on the left side of Takagawa Saku, panting. (On the right side is Kawasaki Saki.)
Hikigaya: "Hey, childhood friends are going to school together again."
Takagawa Saku: "We just happened to meet when we went out."
Kawasaki Saki’s ears felt a little hot when Takagawa Saku said the word "coincident."
"I didn’t expect you to come to school at this time. Did you also oversleep while watching the works of the Hakusensha Awards?"
"I haven’t watched it yet. My sister has finished making lunch boxes today. "Takagawa Saku shook his head.
The Masked Novel King Award of Hakusensha lasts for ten days, and the votes for each work will be counted at noon on the first day.
He thinks there is no point in staying up late.
And he also guessed.
"Firefly Forest" probably won’t cause any sensation at the beginning, it must be that readers will accumulate slowly and then make efforts in the later stage.
So there is no point in reading it right away.
"That’s a pity."
"I stayed up until two or three in the morning yesterday for this award. I originally planned to read novels, but I ended up having a lot of fun."
Zaimokuza said excitedly.
"You mean "Firefly Forest" and Karin Nayuta-sensei?"
Totsuka Ayaka also smiled:
"I also ate this melon early this morning, it’s really interesting. ”
“……”
Perhaps because he felt something was a little strange, Gaochuan Shuo was a little puzzled.
Krab and "Firefly Forest"?
"How are they connected?"
Zaimokuza said proudly:
"As soon as this award ceremony started, "Firefly Forest" became popular because the writing was so good in the beginning, and the ending made MEM Chu-chan cry. Many readers were also emo. At first, everyone was a little angry about the plot."
"Because it was well written and the story happened in summer, everyone thought it was the work of Crab Teacher, and they all went to GAGA Kuchon Tower!"
"I heard that Crab Teacher had fallen asleep, but was woken up by the editor in the middle of the night to clarify."
"But Kurala seemed to like this story very much. She posted a long article at one o’clock in the middle of the night to explain the plot of "Firefly Forest". ”
“After reading the long article, everyone calmed down and felt that it was indeed a good work, so they all voted for "Firefly Forest". Many fans of Crab Teacher also voted for Crab Teacher. ”
“As a result, at this time, Crab Teacher suddenly clarified that "Firefly Forest" was not her work…”
“Seeing that she was scolded for someone else and the fan club voted for the other party, she became popular and asked people to beware of telecommunications fraud. She also sent several exclamation marks in a row, which shows that she was really angry at the time. ”
“What? No wonder.” Gao Chuanshuo laughed.
Hikigaya Hachiman also spoke up: "Although the style of "Firefly Forest" is not to my taste, I prefer works like "Four Lies", but I admit that this work is really scary…"
Totsuka Ayaka raised her head, squinted her eyes, and smiled: "Everyone says that when you feel that "Firefly Forest" is too sharp, you can go back and read Ikaros’s "Four Lies" Volume 1, so that you can be healed and recover."
Zaimokuza Yoshiki: "But I really recommend you all to read "Firefly Forest". It really gives people a feeling different from other light novels. It feels like it must be written by a great writer. I directly recommend it!"
"……"
It seems that due to some accidental accidents, the response of "Firefly Forest" was actually quite good at the beginning.
If the early start was so good, "Firefly Forest" might have a good chance of winning the gold award.
That would be a lot of money.
Suddenly!
Takagawa Saku felt that his biggest competitor, who had taken the blame for him and given him a lot of votes, had become handsome.
"I didn’t expect that this would happen in the essay contest last night."
Takagawa Saku’s brows gradually relaxed with joy.
"Since Zaimokuza has recommended it, I’ll go and have a look after school."
Kawasaki Saki, who was standing next to him.
Also heard what they were talking about.
She heard that Takagawa Saku seemed to be interested in the work called "Firefly Forest".
She took the opportunity to secretly glance at Takagawa Saku with her cold and beautiful eyes, and then silently remembered the name of "Firefly Forest".
"……"
May 20th was the first day of the Hakusensha Essay Contest.
In addition to what happened in the early morning.
Today’s announcement is bound to attract attention.
That day.
All the light novel libraries participating in Hakusensha suddenly felt a little uneasy.
After all, although this activity was led by Hakusensha.
It was essentially a competition among the major libraries.
If the people introduced by the company.
The results did not meet the psychological expectations of the major libraries, then their psychological pressure would be great.
After all!
The upper-level leaders will not care about your reasons, they just want to see the results.
Especially GAGA Library.
The main reason is that they have not been very successful in the rankings in recent years, so the senior management is very dissatisfied.
The queen on top has been furious for this more than once.
It can be said that there was a Senjumura conscription before!
But in May, they sent a first-line writer, Hashima Itsuki.
Cooperating with other libraries to encircle a newcomer in Dengeki Bunko, they were actually suppressed by the newcomer in Dengeki Bunko.
This directly led to their queen ordering the reduction of quarterly bonuses for many relevant departments.
So, in order to make everyone’s life easier. (See the videoNovels, go to Faloo Novels! )
GAGA Library sincerely hopes that they can rise to the top.
Get the first place once, don’t be the second place forever!
For this!
They even locked up one of their pillar writers, Kanayuta.
Find a five-star hotel and locked him up for more than a week!
This allowed them to find a satisfactory entry to participate in the essay contest of Hakusensha!
But I didn’t expect it!
Such a thing happened on the first day of the Grand Prize finals.
This made Kentaro Toki’s eyes go dark.
As the editor-in-chief of Hashima Itsuki, he was also the person in charge of the May rollover incident.
His salary was deducted the most.
He also hoped that he could take advantage of Kanayuta’s action to raise his salary.
I didn’t expect such a thing to happen on the first day.
He slapped the table in anger, feeling a little aggrieved:
"So which library is "Firefly Forest" from? How can it be as unreasonable as Dengeki Library!"
"I am not as skilled as others, what can I do?"
Hashima Itsuki sighed.
He had just finished reading "Love Song Under Fireworks" submitted by GAGA Library, and was now watching "Firefly Forest" seriously on his mobile phone.
This poor guy said such things again, but this time Toki Kentaro didn’t want to care about him.
"Ding Ding Ding…"[]
Twelve o’clock finally arrived.
Today’s alarm clock seemed particularly sharp and piercing.
Toki Kentaro pressed it off.
He sighed, took a deep breath, and then turned on the computer.
At this moment.
It’s not just Toki Kentaro.
The entire GAGA Library!
All light novel libraries!
Even ordinary novel lovers are now aiming at this newly updated official list:
The essay voting list.
But when they saw the first name on the list, everyone sighed in unison, and their emotions were strangely similar-
Because this work is not only powerful!
It’s also really lucky!
No. 1 in the voting list:
"Firefly Forest"!
Votes: 8848.
In the past, no matter which essay contest, the first position would definitely be fought to the death, and there would be a lot of gunpowder between the two.
But this essay contest is completely different.
It’s really a special case.
They can’t imagine why a light novel work with a not-so-good ending.
Can be in the first place!
Under normal circumstances!
Although the opponent’s strength is definitely not far behind, it is definitely in the top five or top three.
But by chance, they got the big traffic of Kulala and their GAGA library.
Toki Kentaro suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
But when I saw the second place:
"Love Song Under Fireworks"
Votes: 5981 votes.
Toki Kentaro breathed a sigh of relief, and actually felt a sense of relief after surviving a disaster.
It’s the second place!
That’s right!
This "Love Song Under Fireworks" is the work of their GAGA Bunko, that is, the work of Kanayuta herself.
It seems that the gap is not big, after all, there are still nine days to go.
The battle situation is still tense.
"Hashima, Kanayuta teacher is still ranked second, we still have a great chance!"
But at this time.
Hashima Itsuki, who was standing next to him, looked at his phone, and a tear slowly slid down the corner of his eye.
He heard his editor calling him.
He suddenly woke up.
He glanced at his editor-in-chief, and then at the "Love Song Under Fireworks" on his computer, which was only a little over 1,900 votes behind.
He finally realized what Toki Kentaro said.
Hashima Izuki laughed woodenly, and glanced at "Firefly Forest" on his phone.
Somehow, it seemed that he had a strange emotional resonance with a certain scene in May.
He suddenly said with a look of despair:
"Jianjian, we have no chance, everyone must die!"
"……"
Dengeki Library, 9th floor, Kagurazaka editorial team.
Kagurazaka Ayame was also looking at the attention list.
When she saw the first place "Firefly Forest", she smiled directly.
She just patted her thigh.
Of course she knew that "Firefly Forest" was great.
But because of the choice of subject matter.
Under normal circumstances, the audience of the work will definitely not be able to keep up, even if the quality of other works is similar or even slightly worse.
His original goal was to get a gold or silver award, which even requires later efforts.
But their old rival GAGA Ku.
Give a good assist!
It’s amazing!
Kagurazaka Ayame couldn’t stop laughing.
She turned around, took out her phone, and immediately opened the LINE group chat.
She! But she holds a grudge!
These people complained about her not giving the quota to other groups some time ago, but giving the quota to Ikaros, a newcomer!
Let a newcomer compete with other professional writers.
This is giving away heads.
"……"
But now she has the support of Gaochuan Shuo’s first day’s first place!
She naturally has to slap her back hard.
[Kagurazaka: Screenshot of the results of the opening list.JPG. ]
[Kagurazaka: Giving away heads? Sorry, the plan has changed, we are going to win the championship! ]
[……]
After posting, she continued to look at the rankings of other works on the website.
Then she was even more surprised to see.
Sixth place:
"Love in the Fairy Forest"
Votes:2841.
This is a work from the non-professional group.
But as one of the editors-in-chief, Kagurazaka Ayame certainly knew that this work was the work of Yamada Fairy.
Didn’t expect her work to be in the top ten.
If I knew.
After all, it was an invitation from the professional group, except that Dengeki Bunko gave the quota to the special newcomer Takagawa Saku.
Some of the other nine libraries directly announced the dispatch of pillar-level writers.
Although some libraries chose to keep it secret, they knew that they were at least first-line writers.
So the professional group sweeping the top ten is a familiar scene to us.
But Yamada Fairy.
She actually made it into the top six on the first day, which is indeed a very surprising result!
If she can keep it stable!
One first, one top ten!
Kagurazaka Ayame’s eyes suddenly widened, and her smile gradually became confident: "Great! Now no one can stop me from raising my salary!"
"……Five".
