There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

Li Nian knew what she meant, but she didn't mean it that way. She said helplessly, "I said many things seriously, and I hope that the listeners will take it more seriously. But for some reason, no one believes me when I tell the truth..."

Li Nian moved his fingertips, and the little fire dragon that was dozing on the back of his hand suddenly opened its eyes, turned into a stream of light, flew back to Li Nian's fingertips, coiled into a ball, and in the blink of an eye turned into a burning flame, and disappeared in his palm with a handshake.

An Yi watched this scene silently.

Li Nian glanced at Xia Zhiqiu and said, "By the way, can you return my clothes to me?"

"……OK."

Kasumigaoka then reluctantly tried to take off Li Nian's coat, but just when she took it off halfway, she felt a little cold. She shivered, pulled it on herself again, and shook her head: "No, I feel cold as soon as I take it off. Can I put it on again?" As she spoke, she wrapped the clothes tighter, showing no intention of coming back.

Seeing this, Li Nian simply stopped thinking about getting his coat back, shook his head slightly, and continued to push his game.

Kasumigaoka followed Li Nian's gaze towards the picture running on the screen. The picture of a cute girl standing there and smiling at the person in front of the screen was quite pleasing to the eye.

Knowing that Li Nian had been playing for quite a while when he fell asleep, Kasumigaoka asked curiously, "So what? How do you feel about actually playing the game? Of course, I'm asking about your thoughts as a script writer."

The picture of a burly man sitting and playing with a gal is quite scary. It feels that the various elements that make up the picture are not harmonious. However, Kasumigaoka certainly knows that Li Nian is actually a very good author - under his strong appearance there is a delicate heart. He is the type who will study words carefully. From his expression you can tell that this guy is enjoying it... Of course, the key is what he has collected after collecting materials for a long time.

After Xia Zhiqiu asked this, Li Nian had a lot to say. He was about to start writing the script, and he had to discuss many things with Xia Zhiqiu, his script collaborator. He didn't intend to waste time and wanted to talk about all the points he had thought of.

"I've gained a lot. First of all, after playing for a while, I have a general understanding of how to write a script for an adv game. Of course, I need to find more information on more stringent format requirements."

"Ah, so this is a skill that you should learn naturally?"

"It's very important to understand this basic writing method, because it's quite different from the writing method of novels... So I think you should also learn it well, senior sister."

"…Can you be more specific?"

"This type of game is usually told from the protagonist's first-person perspective, with the main part of the text focused on dialogue and psychological description. Compared to the third-person novel-style narrative, the sense of immersion is several levels stronger. Unlike pure text, the way the game is presented through character illustrations and voice actors is much more intuitive. As for the requirements of our script, the choice of words and sentences needs to be more concise and direct... For example, our script probably only needs to describe who said what with what expression and mood in a certain context, and what the protagonist thought after hearing and seeing what. That's all. So it's best not to show off the text with the idea of ​​being flowery and eloquent. Just keep it straightforward. Of course, because all the lines need to be coordinated with the voice actors' performances, the lines must be more colloquial."

Kasumigaoka listened carefully and digested it: "In general, you just need me to study the writing method carefully?"

"This is a must... After all, you probably haven't played this kind of game much, right?" Li Nian pointed at the screen.

“I’ve definitely never played it.”

It would be strange if such a beautiful JK as the senior sister had ever played the role of a gal. At first glance, she is a literary girl. It is true that she has read a lot of books, but on the other hand, she has probably played a lot of games, not to mention the niche text adventure genre.

It’s better to say that only hardcore otakus like Aki and Sawamura would have played with many gals and act like experts with deep research... Oh yes, and there is a fifth update to count.

In short, Kasumigaoka's understanding of the type of game they want to make is definitely the lowest in the club. Even Kato has been playing for a long time recently under the influence of Aki.

"Senior, you should also find a few games to actually play. Some things will become clear once you play them... and vice versa, there are also things that you won't understand without actually playing them. To be frank, judging from your writing style, I think there will be big problems if you just start writing a gal script like this."

Li Nian has read Kasumi Shiko's Love Metronome several times. It is a very typical romance novel in style. It should be said that it is very suitable for transcribing gals only in terms of content, but the style is different. Kasumi Shiko's articles reflect the delicate and soft heart of a young girl between the lines - to put it bluntly, it feels like the words are a bit too showy. As a novel, it is still within a moderate range and there is no problem. It is even more comfortable to read. However, Li Nian thinks that copying that style of writing into the game script is a big problem.

He often sighs about the sadness of passing years and says things that seem irrelevant on the surface. Of course, these arrangements may be to implicitly reflect the character's mood and condition. It is indeed very interesting if you understand it, but on the other hand, if you don't understand it, it will make people feel confused. It is too difficult to handle and can easily cause aesthetic fatigue, and it seems very...redundant.

When Li Nian said this, Xia Zhiqiu would naturally understand.

"Transformation is difficult, I understand this truth. Even if you don't tell me, I will find a few games to play, and eventually I will have the confidence to write our game script. Don't look at me like this, I have written scripts before. I wrote the script for the drama club's school festival last year."

"That's reassuring, but there are still big differences between a performance script and a game script. It's not just about playing a few games. I think you have to try writing it - both of us have to practice writing. Whenever you have time, write a few clips and give them to An Yi to read and let him find problems."

An Yi was startled when his name was suddenly called, and then he saluted solemnly and nodded vigorously: "Yes Sir, I will definitely use my home power to the fullest and ensure that I will not fail in my mission!"

"Indeed, if you don't write it down, you won't know anything."

"Then there's the issue of division of labor and cooperation? How should the two of us collaborate on the script creation? Does senior have any experience?"

Everyone can work behind closed doors, letting their thoughts run wild and typing away at the screen; this is something every writer is good at - but it's different when it comes to collaboration, as you have to take all aspects of the collaborator into consideration. Li Nian has never created in this way before, and I wonder if Kasumigaoka has ever done so.

Kasumigaoka thought about it, chuckled, and whispered into Li Nian's ear.

"No, I'm still a clean and decent girl. I've never tried to get together with anyone~~~~. Now I'm about to be taken away by you..."

After hearing these words, Wu Geng, who was standing next to him, blushed and his typing speed visibly slowed down.

"Oh, so you haven't found a boyfriend yet?"

Li Nian asked this question out of curiosity.

It seemed that she didn't expect that this straight man did not choose to ignore her dirty jokes this time, but instead climbed up the pole. Kasumigaoka was really stunned for a moment.

This was something that Gogen was curious about as well, and for a moment he pricked up his ears.

Xia Zhiqiu always felt that there was something behind Li Nian's question. She was full of imagination for a moment, and then she blushed and became flustered, looking away.

"You, you ask that? What do you mean?"

"Literally. I thought a beauty like you should have had a boyfriend. After all, there are so many boys in Sobu High School whose love letters you rejected that they can fill up a pool, right? But from what you said, it seems like you have never had a boyfriend?"

"Hmph, hmph, I've never had a relationship with anyone. I don't like most boys..." As he said this, he glanced at someone, but saw Li Nian nodding slightly, as if he agreed.

"Oh, really..."

"…What's with that meaningful smile of yours? It doesn't seem surprising at all."

Li Nian said with emotion: "I guess so. I just think that it is a consensus in the industry that the ones with higher virginity can write more about the feeling of love."

"..."

Seeing that person nodding his head vigorously as if he agreed with this logic, Kasumigaoka realized that all his fantasies were stupid, and he immediately felt that he was being looked down upon.

He was furious and said coldly, "You seem to have a strong virginity, right?"

"Yes, senior sister, say a few more words to this arrogant guy..." Wu Geng muttered.

"Of course, I'm still single."

Seeing Li Nian's rather proud expression, one could understand that this man was genuinely proud of this kind of thing. Kasumigaoka suddenly felt powerless, and once again confirmed that this man was a straight man.

Wu Geng also looked over in astonishment, thinking that Li Nian really deserved to be single until now, and guessed that he would remain single for the rest of his life.

Kasumigaoka adjusted herself and quickly regained her composure. She said meaningfully, "But seeing you like that, it proves that this theory is wrong... Speaking of which, judging from your writing style, you don't seem to be very good at writing about love."

After hearing this, Li Nian's expression froze. He touched his chin and thought seriously, then said suspiciously, "I'm really not very good at writing about love... Now that I think about it, what Senior Sister said seems to make sense?"

Xia Zhiqiu looked Li Nian up and down, and suddenly said: "You have good conditions, right? You have regular facial features, and you are both civil and military... The most important thing is that you are young and rich. It's not easy to seduce a girl, right?"

"It's too much trouble. I don't want it."

Li Nian did not hesitate.

"It is said that those who say this are because their ideal girl is too unrealistic."

"Yes, my wife must be like this." Li Nian pointed at the girl on the computer screen.

Chapter 294: Direction Conflict During the First Script Meeting (Nonsense?)

"There's no way to save this person, and his ending of living alone is confirmed." Wu Geng held his forehead and sighed.

"Oh, you are worthy of being my friend. Have you realized that only girls in the second dimension are the most perfect?" An Yi, who always shouts "paper people are so tall", of course has the same idea as Li Nian. At this time, he pushed up his glasses and nodded continuously, obviously agreeing with this. He opened his hands like a missionary and preached loudly: "That's right, they will not grow old or fat, and will not betray or change their hearts! Only girls in the second dimension will love us forever! What kind of women are better than this!"

"What's a pity is that the love of otakus is fickle. They change seven or eight wives a year, at least?" Sawamura was looking at Li Nian's manuscript on his phone very seriously, but he also noticed the commotion here. From that place, he could see Li Nian's screen. She was wearing glasses at this time and saw clearly that the person this guy was referring to was [Misaki Tobisawa] from [Ao no Misaki]. She added, "For example, isn't the one you are talking about now one of your previous wives, stupid Renye? Are you the type who doesn't mind sharing your wife with your good brothers? I didn't know you were also a Minotaur fan, Renye."

"What do you mean by that when I was sharing my masterpiece?! Shut up, you stupid idiot! You are the only one who has a mind full of evil plots! I am a pure love warrior who always kills minotaurs with one shot, okay!"

"Yes, yes~~" Sawamura waved his hand nonchalantly. She was tired of listening to such stupid words from Renye. She thought that Mr. Muzi's manuscript was much more interesting - it was indeed a revision to the point of starting over, right?

"Evil? Aoyan? Minotaur? Pure Love Warrior?" Kato became interested in the unfamiliar words that she had never seen before. She looked at the people next to her with curiosity, but everyone who met her gaze pretended to look away. Li Nian, who was being looked at last, originally wanted to pretend that she didn't hear what Sawamura said at all, but now she was being looked at, she could only say helplessly.

"Please, Kato, don't ask me this with such innocence. It's better not to take some of the words that come out of Sawamura's mouth too seriously."

At this moment, Kasumigaoka looked at the portrait and suddenly said.

"Doesn't this child look like mine?"

"Ah?" Li Nian was confused.

"Look at that long, smooth, black hair."

As she spoke, Kasumigaoka confidently lifted her long hair and posed.

"…Senior, can you please smooth down the hair that stood up when you fell asleep before posing? You'll end up with alopecia if you keep doing this."

"..." Kasumigaoka subconsciously pressed the top of her head. There were indeed a few strands of hair that jumped up unruly, as if they were messed up when she fell asleep. Knowing that her appearance might not be very good at the moment, she pretended to be calm and began to tidy up her hair: "This is just an accident. Usually my black hair is very smooth, soft and neat."

This is true... Well, in terms of appearance, Misaki Tobisawa in the game is a bit like the senior, and she is always drowsy during the day, which is also similar to the senior. However, her personality is very different. Misaki Tobisawa is straightforward, carefree, and quite boyish, and she is also a big eater.

"...Anyway, I do like long, straight black hair."

Wu Geng pinched his hair subconsciously and smiled mischievously: "Oh, you like long straight black hair?"

The way she was deliberately pinching her hair and moving it towards this side was hinting at something, and Li Nian could still understand it. He sneered and tapped the girl's plump chest on the screen.

"Yes, I also like big breasts? What about someone else?" As he said this, he glanced at the flat chest of Gogen.

The girl immediately crossed her chest and argued with a red face: "Narrow-minded man! Don't you know that girls have plenty of room for development!?"

"It's too late to grow up here. You won't be able to grow up in 30 years." Li Nian sneered.

"…Go to hell! Go to hell! Please, really go to hell, okay?"

"Dead, no thanks."

"what?"

But the other side was indeed well developed. Looking at the senior sister who was smiling and deliberately standing up with her chest crossed to emphasize the fullness of her chest, Li Nian knew that she was playful again, but she didn't point it out. Instead, she pretended to be silent and continued, "Well... Speaking of which, this girl in the game likes to add a "meow" at the end of her words..."

"Meow~" The senior student used her hands to make cat paws and acted cute in a malicious way.

There was a click. Li Nian took out her phone and took a picture, expecting her to do this. "Rare CG get da☆ze!"

Kasumigaoka froze in place, then quickly lowered her hands and regained her dignified appearance.

"Delete."

"Senior, be honest and I will delete it later."

Li Nian originally wanted to use this opportunity to drop the topic and get Xia Zhiqiu to behave herself for a while, but Xia Zhiqiu thought about it and smiled as if she didn't care.

"...That's true. You are still a young man full of vigor and vitality. I will show you my big sister's generosity and allow you to use it as [material]."

I deliberately emphasized the word [materials].

"...Alas." Li Nian was really at his wit's end: "To be honest, even if you are sure that I won't do anything reckless, you shouldn't tell dirty jokes to a hot-blooded teenager."

An Yi watched from the side for a long time, thinking that this senior schoolmate seemed to only like to tease you, Li Nian.

Kasumigaoka remained noncommittal: "So, you don't really agree with Amaki-san's idea, do you? Do you plan to spend your next life with a paper man?"

"Well, just kidding, about half."

"Are you kidding?!" An Yi was struck by lightning, with a look of betrayal.

"It's you, the one who really wants to spend the rest of your life with a paper man?" Gogen was surprised by An Yi's expression which didn't seem fake.

"Who is the serious other half?" Kasumigaoka continued to ask.

"...Ah? Are you asking about my views on love?"

"right."

"...Can you not say it? It's embarrassing."

"No."

Originally, the topic should have been dropped at this point, but Kasumigaoka was unexpectedly persistent and seemed to want to get to the bottom of it, unlike before when she would give up when faced with difficulty. This made Li Nian feel a little strange.

"…Is this your revenge for me tricking you into believing that you are a pure girl with no romantic history?"

"Let's just leave it at that." Kasumigaoka smiled and said, "It's more about our collaborative script. Aren't we discussing that now? Let's put the technical issues aside and discuss the content directly, how about that?"

"Of course you can, but what does the script have to do with my view on love?"

"Did you forget what I said? I want to use you as the protagonist."

"…Are you still talking about that topic?"

"I am serious about this. I have said it many times."

Li Nian's expression also became serious.

"In that case, I have to say that I personally think we should start from the theme and create a male protagonist that is suitable for the story."

"On the contrary, I plan to start from the character setting and write a story that suits the male protagonist."

"... Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?" Li Nian frowned. He didn't care how Kasumigaoka teased him normally, but now that they were going to seriously discuss the content of the script, he didn't quite agree.

"I think this is the most appropriate way. If you want to know why, isn't this your writing style, Mr. Muzi?"
