Chapter 39

"Ah, it's Xia Qiujun, good morning, Xiao Qiong has to go to school today too."

Even though she was busy, Mrs. Nishimiya still had a smile on her face and greeted Xia Qiu.

Xia Qiu also responded with a polite smile.

"Good morning, Mrs. Nishimiya, would you like to leave Glass and Yuzuru to me? I can just take them to school."

Nishimiya Glass and Xiao Qiong are not much different in age from Yuzuru, and they just happened to be in the same elementary school. Thinking that she could help a little bit, Xia Qiu made this suggestion, which just happened to help this hard-working woman.

"Is that so."

Mrs. Nishimiya lowered her head and pondered. She was not afraid that Xia Qiu would abduct her daughter, but she was wondering if this would be too much trouble for Xia Qiu.

"It's okay. My way to school is not far from Xiao Qiong's school, so I can just take them there together."

Seemingly seeing Mrs. Nishimiya's concerns, Xia Qiu mentioned that he could just take care of the two children conveniently.

Okay, Mrs. Nishimiya finally agreed to this suggestion, thanked Xia Qiu for his help again, and then handed the two daughters to Xia Qiu.

Then she hurriedly prepared to take the train to work.

The morning rush hour in Neon is notoriously terrible, comparable to the third brother's ticket train.

It's really hard.

After sending the three little ones to elementary school, he repeatedly told them to be good in school, and asked Xiao Qiong to call him if there was anything, and then Xia Qiu was ready to go to Sobu High School.

"Is the sales of Four Lies expected to exceed 500,000?"

Looking at the phone on the way, it seems that the editor-in-chief Acorus sent a message to himself last night, but it was late at night, and Xia Qiu had fallen asleep at that time and did not notice the line message.

Now picking it up, Xia Qiu realized that the sales of Four Lies in the second week reached 32,000, which was about half of the sales in the first week, but after all, light novels only have high sales in the first week.

The sales of 30,000 in the second week are enough to show that this light novel is popular, and a single volume may exceed 500,000.

This is 500,000 for a single volume? There is no manga or anime adaptation, and the sales of 500,000 are only based on the industry's reputation. It is enough to show that this light novel is very successful.

It's good~ The higher the sales, the more small money you will get.

Xia Qiu is still very pragmatic~

It's just...

[Teacher Xia Qiu, are you free to come to Dengeki Bunko tomorrow? In order to celebrate the popularity of Four Lies, the editorial department decided to release a signed version, estimated to be 500 sets, which will be sandwiched in the supply sent to various bookstores as a hidden version promotion, and it can also be regarded as a thank you to the fans who support you. ]

Signed version?

Hmm~ feasible.

Anyway, he has nothing to do, so he can promote his own book, increase sales, and make money for himself.

He responded to the editor-in-chief of Acorus with a "good" and I don't know if he was waiting for Xia Qiu's reply, and he replied quickly.

But the next message...

[Teacher, are you interested in holding a book signing event? I believe it will definitely push the sales of Four Lies up again! (*σ´∀`)σ. 】

Xia Qiu only had one response to the book signing event.

【Da Me! 】

Others don't know, but he doesn't know what the second volume of Four Lies is about?

It's a knife! It's a knife!

What if someone secretly takes a photo of me and posts it online? If someone knows me, won't I be exposed? I'm afraid I'll receive tons of razor blades in the future!

Forget about attending the book signing event. I'll wait until I graduate. I'll just stay at home and do nothing.

Hehehe~ Isn't it wonderful?

Meanwhile, in the editorial department of Dengeki Bunko.

"What do you think, Ayame?"

"Editor-in-chief? Teacher Xia Qiu promised to come to the library to help sign 500 sets of Four Lies. We can cooperate with the promotion."

"Okay, okay, I knew that the lolita teacher wouldn't refuse. We can personally deliver the razor blades... cough cough cough, thank the lolita teacher in person."

Did the editor-in-chief say something incredible?

Ayame tilted her head.

"But he didn't agree to the book signing, and the reason he gave was that he didn't want to reveal his identity yet."

"Hmm..."

The editor touched his chin and spoke slowly.

"I think it's normal. I guess the lolita teacher is afraid that he will have trouble in life after he becomes famous. After all, the popularity of Four Lies is visible to the naked eye."

But the editor still admires Teacher Xia Qiu. After all, who doesn't want to show off when he becomes famous at a young age?

At least in the eyes of the editor, it's rare.

It's not that there are no genius high school students who are very young and have become popular with one book. Without exception, they start to show off their achievements on the Internet.

There are very few people who can remain calm like Teacher Xia Qiu.

……………………

In addition to the news about Acorus, of course there is also our senior sister Kasumigaoka Shiyu on the phone!

[Is the junior brother here? ]

[So awesome, junior brother, did you see it? The second week sales of Four Lies on the Internet are out. Junior brother has completely become famous with one book. ]

……………………

[Junior brother? I want to discuss with you the idea of ​​the third volume of Love Metronome? 】

[Junior? Are you asleep? ]

………………

[Hehehe, unfaithful men will suffer retribution. ]

Xia Qiu wanted to say something but stopped, and then he wanted to say something...

Then he looked at the time again.

[1:36] Message sent.

No? This woman has a cat disease.

Back to school, back to my class, back to my hometown of the back row window king!

My classmates just glanced at Xia Qiu's arrival and nothing happened. It seems that the rumors yesterday are not heard much today.

As Xia Qiu expected, these high school students are just idle. What Eriri was worried about was not true.

But what made Xia Qiu speechless was that Eriri seemed to be in a bad mood today.

What's wrong with this guy? Is her period coming? She looked at me with a gloomy face.

As if I had cheated on her?

I don't think I have offended this lady, right?

Eriri is really unhappy...

The reason is still last Friday.

That fat woman is really hateful. She jumped on her face and mocked her! When Eriri was drawing fan art, she sent me a photo of her and Xia Qiu having a meal on the rooftop.

Damn! Aren't they just acquaintances? When did they become so close! How abominable!

When she thought of the affection between Kasumigaoka Utaha and Xia Qiu on the rooftop, Eriri felt an indescribable annoyance in her heart.

It was as if there was a grudge stuck in her chest.

Even if it was like this, Eriri would just be sulking for the rest of her life. Who hasn't had the experience of exchanging lunches with Xia Qiu?

Who would have thought that Kasumigaoka Utaha's provocation was more than that.

This guy! This guy actually sent a message directly saying that she had no charm!

[Hey, little golden retriever? It seems that your relationship with Xia Qiu is just like this? When he knew that I heard those rumors, he tried his best to clarify with me~ for fear that I misunderstood something. ]

[Hmm~ It seems that there is nothing to misunderstand~ Xia Qiu-kun still calls little golden retriever Sawamura-san? Tsk tsk tsk, it's really... puff~ very ordinary. ]

[Oh, that's right, the relationship between you two is just like that. 】

Yinglili:(งᵒ̌ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃

Angry! Really angry! What does this fat woman mean? Is she saying that I have no charm? In Xia Qiu's heart, I am just an ordinary classmate!
