This sentence paved the way for Sanchū Ming to write a mystery novel.

Under the influence and education of Akashiji Seijuro, Sanchū Ming was able to independently construct a complete logical story. Her writing style was broad and her language was delicate and concise. It did not seem like the writing of a child at all.

However, there was one thing that Akaji was very concerned about. He did not know if it was because of the trauma caused by the drastic change in her family, or because he had given her a strong social realism book to read too early.

Sanchū Ming's description of emotions was twisted and extreme.

Just look at the melodramatic story she wrote in the skin of magic: The male protagonist, who came from a small town, met a mysterious magician who was a dragon's companion and learned necromancy from the magician.

But in the kingdom of light,

Necromancy was despised.

So the male protagonist worked hard to hide his identity,

And became one of the magicians under the king,

And fell in love with the gentle queen.

One day, when he left the palace,

The male protagonist's identity was exposed and he was wanted by the king.

After he killed the king and kidnapped the queen —

The queen wept and told the young man,

The king he killed was his biological father.

The queen was his mother,

And the necromancer who taught him magic.

The king of the kingdom of light fell in love with the necromancer and used all his love to build a palace for the queen and her dragon that could completely hide the traces of necromancy.

This was also why the queen never noticed,

And why the young man was a necromancer.

In the center of the kingdom of light, the palace of glory and glory completely accepted the darkness.

The young man asked the queen in despair why she abandoned him,

The queen said the curse of the necromancer who had once killed her.

"My husband will be killed by our son."

The queen and the king, who had a child, could not bear to kill their child,

So they handed him over to a family in the most remote village in the kingdom to raise.

But the king and queen did not know that the family had later moved away from the original village.

So, without the knowledge of either side,

The child walked on the path of tragedy —

He met the queen who had left the palace to find food for the dragon.

Akaji was speechless.

This guy could write a magic story with an Oedipus plot,

But he must not read stories with a normal theme.

He would be stabbed to death by the readers.

Therefore, Akashiji Seijuro tactfully said,

He reminded Sanchū Ming to pay attention to the theme and restrain himself.

In the end, Sanchū Ming, who didn't understand the meaning behind Akaji's words and thought it was a compliment, happily decided to test the waters of reasoning. She felt that reasoning was the only way to bring out her talent that even Seijuro praised.

As a result, Sanchū Ming practiced for almost two years. After using up his draft and inspiration books, he took out "Going Home".

Although Akaji ridiculed this as a "melodramatic story of a man cheating on his wife and causing her to become depressed and commit suicide," he had to admit that Sanchū Ming's extreme understanding of emotions and twisted presentation methods could produce astonishing chemical changes when combined with a reasoning theme.

Just like the hardworking wife in "Going Home", the husband who indulged in debauchery.

At the beginning of "Going Home", the husband died at his lover's house. The wife was listed as a suspect by the police and controlled. A righteous but a little paranoid young policeman was extorting a confession from the wife.

The young policeman asked his wife, "Is murder a sin?"

The wife smiled and said, "Not at all."

Sanchū Ming submitted the first 40,000 words to Guangwen Press's reasoning magazine "GIALLO". At that time, editor Hidesuke Koike, who had just parted with the previous author on bad terms, received her submission. After reading it, he decided to meet the newcomer with the pen name "Mochizuki Linn".

He was shocked when he saw the luxury car (Akaji's) parked in front of the agreed coffee shop. He was also shocked by the thorny Junior high girl who walked up to him and called herself "Mochizuki Linn".

Finally, when he received Sanchū Ming's outline, Hidesuke Koike fell silent.

"Excuse me, Mochizuki Sensei," he asked tentatively, "What is your relationship with Mochizuki Sensei, who drew 'Pandora's Heart' in the manga world?"

These two Mochizuki Sensei were both evil in their respective fields!

Couldn't they just draw shoujo manga properly and write reasoning plots properly!

When he saw the first 40,000 words, Koike thought that Mochizuki Linn was a reasoning writer for the Bunge. After seeing the outline, he realized that the girl with short stubble hair in front of him was a dangerous and evil reasoning writer.

Unlike the Bunge writers, she was more willing to destroy emotions and completely overturn the previous inferences in the middle. Compared to the Bunge writers, she was more inclined towards realism and thriller suspense.

It wasn't that evil reasoning was dangerous, but because "Giallo" magazine was inclined towards the Bunge reasoning. Famous writers such as Kurashi Jun, Kuroda Kenji, Kondo Shie, Zhu Chuan Tsujin, Higashino Keigo, Michio Hidesuke, and others who had been published for a long time in the magazine were all very orthodox Bunge writers.

In "Giallo", evil reasoning had no place at all.

Choosing to submit to "Giallo" was a very risky decision.

"Why don't you go to 'Mephisto Book'?" Koike asked Sanchū Ming.

"It's not enough," Sanchū Ming, who had been repeatedly warned by Akashiji Seijuro to never talk about money as soon as they met, said, "I want to be famous. 'Mephisto Book' is not enough." He wanted her to make a lot of money.

Hidesuke Koike, who had terminated his contract with several authors because he was too conservative, looked at Sanchū Ming, who was too young and full of thoughts of fame. He decided to throw away the damn risks and uncertainties and take a big gamble.

The second chapter of "Going Home" revealed the wife's direct motive for the murder.

The husband, who had brought his lover home, covered the baby's head with a flannel cloth, causing the baby to suffocate. The lover and husband drove the car, put the baby in a bag, put something heavy in the bag, and threw it into the river. After that, they faked a burglary scene and told the wife, who had returned from the company, that the baby had been taken away by a thief.

Hidesuke Koike made the right bet. When the readers thought that the wife was a killer, the motive for the crime was very sufficient. The police only needed to find the murder weapon in the following chapters to prove the means of the crime. Even the editorial department thought that "Going Home" was a very orthodox Bolognese Bunge inference. However, the third chapter of "Going Home" broke everyone's understanding.

When the wife was arrested and locked up in the police station, the brother of the husband who had abused the wife died.

The knife wounds that caused his death were highly similar to the knife wounds on the husband's body. It was identified that they were caused by the same knife.

The murderer was not the wife, and the murderer was still at large.

"Going Home", which originally had mediocre results and relied on Koike's turnaround, rushed to the top five of the readers' voting in this issue.

"Isn't 'Giallo' a proper Bunge inference?!

What is' Going Home '?! "

"This is evil!

Evil!

Who is the murderer?!

Someone is stuck here!!! "

The readers' letters were full of such cries.

Teacher "Mochizuki Linn" became famous in the clean Bunge inference from then on.

"A pure literature newcomer's award …" Sanchū Ming, who was called evil by the readers, frowned. "This genre can't be like 'Going Home' with a big twist and suspense …"

After the murderer was not the wife, "Going Home" had two big twists. Including the ending in the softcover single volume, there were a total of four twists. Sanchū Ming was confident that she could make a lot of money with "Going Home".

After all, her talent was praised by Seijuro!

However, the June newcomer's award gave Sanchū Ming, who was praised by Akaji for her talent, a headache.

Pure literature and short stories were not her field at all.

"Material, material … I need material …" She leaned over the blank draft book, her empty eyes wandering and falling on the clock on the wall.

"Wow, it's six o 'clock!"

She hadn't cooked yet, she hadn't sent the bamboo swords to be repaired. She had also made an appointment with Tachikaidai Kendo this morning for guidance!

"Thank you very much." Kendo Head bowed again. "The protective gear is in the changing room —"

"No need, I brought gloves."

Three Suns and Moon picked out a bamboo sword that was relatively heavy and weighed it in his hand. "You just need to make sure they wear protective gear."

… She was so straightforward that it was frustrating.

The third-year head was stunned, then smiled bitterly.

She was saying that the entire Imperial Light Kendo was not qualified to let her wear protective gear.

However, Sanchū Ming was telling the truth.

He looked at Sanchū Ming, then looked at the student council president, Akashiji Seijuro, then silently bowed and left.

"This is already the sixth school that has contacted me … What are their coaches doing?" Sanchū Ming complained as she combed her hair and reached into her pocket.

"Ah … Headband."

She had forgotten to give the hair to the girl in the supermarket yesterday.

"Here." Akaji took off a headband from his wrist.

Wearing a headband on his wrist was a habit that Akaji had developed since he met Sanchū Ming.

Sanchū Ming had been a little muddle-headed in her daily life since she was young. She would lose one of her headbands every day. It was only after Akaji took her to buy a few beautiful headbands that this habit of hers was alleviated.

According to Sanchū Ming, the headbands that Akaji bought were too beautiful, and they were not the same. She wrapped them around her head, hands, neck, legs … They were all beautiful, so she had to take good care of them.

Sanchū Ming started not to throw headbands, but Akaji still wore one on her wrist.

Even after Sanchū Ming went to Miyagi Prefecture, this habit did not change.

The basketball club members all thought that headbands were prepared for Atsushi Shihara with long hair.

Only two people knew that Akaji's headband had an owner.

"You still haven't changed your habit." Sanchū Ming naturally took it and neatly combed up her long blonde hair.

"You're the one who always forgets."

As long as Akaji met Sanchū Ming, he was full of self-restraint, self-restraint, and neither arrogance nor impatience. All that was left was helplessness.

He was still the same Sanchū Ming as before, which made Akaji, who was reserved and somewhat nostalgic, very comfortable.

"Bring your own backups."

Although he was very happy in his heart, Akaji did not show it on his face, and his tone carried a bit of reproach.

"Isn't Seijuro here?"

Sanchū Ming waved her hand, exaggeratedly drawing a circle with her right foot behind her left foot. She placed her right hand in front of her chest and left hand behind her back, and gave Akaji a gentleman's salute.

"I offer you victory."

She said with a smile.

"… I say, Midori, is that really Akaji?

Could he have been possessed? "

"Lord Qingfeng's imagination is unexpectedly rich."
