I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 329

Li Yan felt a little tingly in his heart.

"Senior, what Mashiro said is unfinished, are you referring to this painting..." Nanami asked, a little surprised.

Because compared to the last time I came here, the paint basically stained the white cloth and the surrounding easels everywhere. It seemed that Mashiro had been painting here for a long time before, and he also painted very focused and fell into enthusiasm.

Li Yan nodded and said, "Yes, yes."

"If Shiina is still thinking about this oil painting, she definitely doesn't want to leave. If she is thinking about this painting, it must be a work that she put a lot of energy into. I'm thinking...she must have Things want to be told to me.”

Li Yan's eyes sharpened, and he lifted up the white cloth to reveal this unfinished work to the world.

As a result, the night wind blew in this room, and under the white light, both Li Yan and Qihai were stunned by this painting.

With strong and emotional colors, the "old thief" sitting at the table writing in the oil painting has almost been completed. It looks so lifelike in the dimness and brightness of the light. His expression seems to be very tired while thinking and writing. It makes the audience feel that the author is tired, but what is even more amazing is that in the lazy eyes that are slightly blocked by the palms, people feel a sense of joy that is addicted to story creation, just like...

Flame-like heat.

For a moment, Li Yan and Qingshan Qihai were all infected by the strong emotions emanating from this oil painting...

"I don't think Shiina has regressed."

"I feel Shiina's paintings. Her emotions are outstanding. Even a thousand years can't reduce the expectations and emotions she has given to this painting. This painting can prove that Shiina is not because of Integrate into life and stand back.”

Li Yan turned around, with his back to the huge oil painting, looked at Nanami, and said seriously: "Since Shiina told me what she said, I will also tell her what I said, Qingshan, I will take it with me This painting, go to England and bring Shiina back!"

Chapter 192 The journey to find Mashiro

London, the capital of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Under a gray sky and the drizzle had begun to subside, a red double-decker bus drove across the suspension bridge over the cold Thames River and arrived at this central area of ​​London.

The wet cobblestone streets, ancient European-style buildings, red phone booths, and black British street lamps all showed that Li Yan had arrived in London.

It took several days from applying for the visa to booking the air tickets. After dragging my suitcase out of the airport, what I saw was this strange European street.

"..."

Li Yan got off the bus and raised his head. It was clearly approaching noon, but the sky at this moment was indeed a scene of an approaching storm with dim sunlight shining through the gaps between billowing dark clouds.

But more importantly, he confirmed this location with his own eyes. The legendary [Elizabeth Tower], also commonly known as [Big Ben], was right above his head. Here, Mashiro Shiina pointed out to them in the email waiting place.

"Big Ben is right here. I've been here several times before."

Ying Lili, who was beside Li Yan, raised her head and looked at this landmark building in London together, and said with a smile.

"...Zhenbai, just let us wait in front of this clock tower for her to come?"

Behind Li Yan and Eiri, Nanami Aoyama, who came with them because they were worried, asked.

"Yeah, I'm waiting below Big Ben. That's what she replied to me."

Li Yan looked at Qingshan Qihai and replied.

Before departure, Li Yan specially sent an email to Shiina Mashiro. He guessed that if Shiina Mashiro's mobile phone was monitored by her parents, her dedicated email address should still be able to be used.

As a result, not long after the email was sent, Shiina responded to him with an email stating that they were waiting under the Big Ben clock tower. Therefore, he, Eri, and Nanami Aoyama took the bus from the airport. We took the bus to this famous landmark historical building.

Naturally, the purpose of Nanami Aoyama's trip was to hope that she could be of some help. Mashiro lived with her for several months and experienced many things together, including meeting the legendary monster [Twisting Around] in a wheat field. ], held in her arms and protected. When the city of Tokyo had a fever, only this girl with long blond hair stood by her side. In the stage play between two people, she was the only one who still worked hard with her until the end...

So, she came to protect Mashiro's dream.

Wearing dark green clothes and a white skirt, Eri Sawamura came with her this time. It was partly because of the two-month illustrator battle with Mashiro Shiina that she came here. After hearing about the incident, , she chose to come to London with them. Her philosophy is basically the same as others. The right to creative freedom should not be deprived by parents, and she believes that she, who is half British, can serve as a tour guide for Li Yan and others. role.

It was ten o'clock in the morning, and there was a fog on the Thames.

It rains quite frequently in London in June. The city, known as the "Fog City", is often filled with humid fog.

Li Yan also felt a little uncertain. Although he did get a reply from Shiina Mashiro, from the line of reply, he always felt that it was not sent by Shiina himself, but someone with ulterior motives who invited them over. Wait here.

While the group was waiting, about twenty minutes passed, but Shiina Mashiro still hadn't arrived.

Although Li Yan's email had been sent before.

"I'm a little thirsty. Do you want to buy drinking water?" Nanami Aoyama, who was waiting on the side, asked with a smile.

"Um, me too. When I was on the plane, I didn't dare to drink a sip of water. Now I'm a little thirsty..." Ying Lili also said in response. She looked around and found a person not far away. At the street store, his eyes lit up and he said, "Sure enough, the stall here is still there. If it's over there, let's go over there and buy some drinking water and snacks."

"Otaku Li, what kind of drink do you want? Is juice okay?"

When Eirili passed by with Nanami, she turned around and asked.

"Okay, thank you." Li Yan said.

"OK."

Yinglili made a gesture and walked over.

As a result, it turned out that it was exactly what Li Yan had learned before. When Eiri was buying a drink at a stall not far away, she spoke "this", "this" and "this" in Japanese English, and the store manager asked a series of questions in English. After that, Yinglili's expression was one of confusion, and then she shook her head and made up her mind. When paying, she couldn't tell the English numbers for a long time...

When Yinglili handed Li Yan a bottle of water with an embarrassed expression, Li Yan still thought depressedly: "Sure enough, Yinglili, apart from your hair and British blood, you are a complete and utter person inside and out." The Japanese..."

At this moment, in front of a group of people under the Big Ben clock tower, a traditional British carriage with two white horses suddenly stopped, causing Li Yan, Ying Lili and others to look over.

As a result, an old white housekeeper with white hair and a suit got out of the carriage. He came to the other carriage and opened the door respectfully.

"You must have been waiting for a long time."

A slightly thin, handsome middle-aged oriental man stepped out of the carriage, looked at them and said. No matter from the way he talks or dresses, he has an elegant and slightly cheerful temperament.

Eiriri and Nanami were immediately shocked, especially Nanami. She whispered: "This is Mashiro's father..."

"..."

Li Yan understood, and his eyes began to stare at the father of this close friend. Sure enough, the email he sent was not received by Mashiro Shiina, but that her father had something to tell them... No, to be precise, it should be Let’s talk to the culprit who changed Shiina Mashiro without authorization.

"Hello, I am Shiina's friend and senior, my name is Li Yan, please give me your advice." Li Yan bowed slightly, and when he raised his head, he looked at Mashiro's father with a little concern... He is also a famous Japanese painter.

"Li Jun, I have always planned to have a good chat with you. Today I finally met. I would like to thank you on behalf of Mashiro. Then, let's go to a place together as a few of us. Please get in the carriage."

Shiina's father smiled and extended his hand to invite them to board the carriage.

Under the Big Ben clock tower in England, in front of a carriage, two "artists" who had greatly influenced Mashiro Shiina's growth direction finally met in a somewhat meaningful atmosphere of struggle.

※※※

On a wet London street, a carriage was driving slowly on the road. The interior of the carriage was very spacious. Even if there were six people in total including the carriage driver, the two white horses could still easily pull the carriage and stroll through the dim and bustling streets of London. .

"Mashiro is my only daughter. A few months ago, due to some things, she left London and went to Japan. With the help of her cousin, she also went through the admission procedures for high school there. Her mother and I It wasn't until I came back from Austria a month ago that I discovered that she had gone abroad without telling us."
