Chapter 57 Naruto's Vacation (Updated)

[Does Naruto-sensei have time on weekends? I am Machida, the editor-in-chief of the JUMP editorial department. I heard some time ago that you are interested in a romance novel in the electronic library. And coincidentally, my sister happens to be the editor of the author of the novel "Metronome of Love"...]

ah? The sister of the editor-in-chief of the comics editorial department is working as the editor-in-chief of the light novel editorial department. Your family quite likes being an editor.

On the weekend... shall I meet that Kasumigaoka Shiu who can only be favored online?

It's not impossible, it's the weekend...it's a rare holiday, so go check it out.

.....

At the Tokyo Manga JUMP headquarters, Naruto-sensei, Uchiha Ling, who was invited by the editor-in-chief, was dining elegantly on the second floor.

"Hahaha, every time I see Naruto-sensei, I always admire your youth."

Uchiha Ling smiled and said, "Chief Editor Machida, are we going to the electronic library now?"

Machida smiled, "Of course... no, I have asked my sister to bring someone over."

Downstairs of the JUMP headquarters, Machida Enzi was introducing Kasumigaoka Shiu here. By the way, if it weren't for Mr. Naruto's recommendation, "Metronome of Love" would probably have been cut in half.

"When we meet, we must thank them. Don't be venomous with them!"

"Of course I know this!"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu's thoughts returned to half a month ago——

Kasumi Shiko: "I've only published two volumes...will it be stopped..."

Machida Enoko, the editor of Kasumigaoka Shiu, doesn’t look very good either. As an editor who accompanied the other person’s debut, she also doesn’t want “Love Metronome” to be cut in half.

"I'm sorry... I have already talked with the editor-in-chief. This volume is the last chance. Unless there is a qualitative leap in sales within a month, otherwise..."

The first and second volumes of "Metronome of Love" did not sell very well.

Even though it has been well received in a small online circle, overall sales have been dismal. If this continues... it will be forcibly cut in half.

"Let's just write a happy ending, Shiyu. It wouldn't be a good thing if he was forcibly cut in half by Wenku."

I originally came to the library to discuss it with the editor with the confidence that I would write it down, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect to get such an answer.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu thought a lot. As her debut work, she really paid a lot. Unfortunately, this reality is not gentle...

She thought about what those fans who were still paying attention to her work would think after her work was cut in half, that anonymous gentleman... the Uchiha junior from Shuchiin.

Until...Naruto-sensei posted a photo of him reading a book.

——

"In any case, the other party saved my life, so don't worry, nothing will happen to me."

In the coffee shop on the second floor, Uchiha Ling finally saw the senior girl with white hairpin and black stockings again.

But when Kasumigaoka Shiyu saw Uchiha Ling, she froze on the spot.

Machida Enzi: "Shiyu! Shiyu, say hello..."

Kasumigaoka Shiu suddenly smiled, "Well, you must be Naruto-sensei. Please take good care of me when we meet you for the first time. My name is Kasumigaoka Shiu."

Editor-in-Chief Machida, who was sitting next to Uchiha Ling, was slightly startled. He was indeed Naruto-sensei. He didn't expect the novelist to be so beautiful.

"Ahem, Yuanzi. You and I haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's go out and chat."

Machida Enzi was a little confused, but seeing that Kasumigaoka Shiu didn't object, she just went out first.

After the two editors left, Kasumigaoka Shiyu said in surprise. "I didn't expect it to be you, Naruto-sensei."

"I guessed it, you are Teacher Kasumigaoka, Senior Sister Kasumigaoka."

Kasumigaoka smiled and said, "Hey, my fan, my junior, and my benefactor, in fact, if editor Machida hadn't come to see me today, I would have wanted to find you."

"Come out to me?"

Kasumigaoka Shiu's expression was a little shy, "Well, because you said... I have no experience in love, so I can't write such a novel, so I want to ask you about love."

Uchiha Ling was slightly shocked that Kasumigaoka was so big!

"Naruto-sensei...is that okay?"

"Well, my real name is Uchiha Ling, senior sister can just call me Ling. So, what do you want to do with me?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu tilted her head, "That's it, let's discuss love matters. After all, I am a girl. If I can get some theoretical knowledge from the man, it should be more helpful for writing novels."

"discuss?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu showed a smile as if her plot had succeeded, "Yes, otherwise...what is Senior Ling thinking? Senior Sister still refuses to fall in love~"

Uchiha Ling fell silent, as if he was being teased by Kasumigaoka. This is not okay, he, Uchiha Ling, has always been the only one who teases others!

"Discuss...I don't think it's enough."

"Eh?"

Uchiha Ling looked at Kasumigaoka Shiyu seriously.

"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Why don't I help Teacher Xia Shizi collect materials today? After all, only those who have personally experienced it can write more emotional articles, right?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu never thought that Uchiha Ling would say such things, to collect information... that is, to go on a date!

"So that's what Junior Ling thinks... Then I have no choice but to agree. But not today, I'm not ready yet, Junior Ling needs to plan."

It seems that she was scared, and the agreement was only superficial.

Uchiha Ling laughed, "It's okay if you don't prepare. Men are warriors, and they must be able to pick up their guns and go into battle at any time!"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu wanted to retreat, but she had some inexplicable expectations in her heart.

"Junior Ling, are you really going to go with me to collect materials?"

Uchiha Ling said righteously.

"Senior Kasumigaoka, I have an organ that is more important than the heart. Although it is invisible to ordinary people, it is indeed in my most important position. Because of it, I can stand up straight and say that I am a man. So I will never quit! Even if the heart stops beating, it must always stand up straight."

Looking at Uchiha Ling's serious face, Kasumigaoka Shiyu always felt something was wrong, but after a moment of silence, she nodded slightly.

"In that case, let's use this holiday to collect materials together, Naruto-sensei."
