Why are there only loser heroines around me?

"It's okay for a newbie to be mediocre at the beginning, as long as there are no lightning or toxic points, and not many people want to leave the moment they click in." This is what Yumu said, and Xiaoju also thought it made sense.

Why did she think of this after her injury healed? Xiaoju felt it must be because she was obsessed with the unpublished manuscript. Before a person actually collapses, their mind will be filled with many things, perhaps dreams, or perhaps the person they love. Xiaoju was certain that after she said that, the boss would definitely come to save her. Now that this matter was clear, the only thing left was the unpublished novel.

Xiaoju struggled to reach her cell phone from the bedside. When the screen lit up, the remaining battery was only 2%. Fortunately, the boss was a wealthy man and had chosen a very high-end ward for her, so she could reach the data cable with just one hand.

The screen of her mobile phone was cracked by a crow, but it did not affect her reading.

Xiaoju's first reaction was not to check the impact of the "crow incident" on the school, but to find the novel that she had planned to publish today from the draft box.

She spent half an hour reading the 16,000-word opening from beginning to end, and suddenly felt that what she had written was a piece of shit. It was really strange, because she thought it was very good when she typed the last word on the keyboard two days ago.

She deleted the first two hundred or so words and planned to start over, but the rest of the post felt terrible. She typed it over and over again on her phone, then finally gave up and looked up at the ticking clock below her ceiling. Suddenly, she opened Ukyo's WeChat on LINE. She didn't tell him she was safe.

"Boss, what do you think is a good start?"

Ukyo's chat box was silent for half an hour. Xiaoju just held up her phone and waited for half an hour until a nurse came over and pulled out the IV needle on the back of her hand. Only then did she receive a reply from Ukyo.

"The time, place, characters, and main perspective are clear. If it's a escalation story, it should establish a clear sense of crisis. If it's a youth romance story, it should establish a likable female protagonist and a subtle ambiguous relationship."

What? Aren’t these all very basic things?

Xiaoju continued to type and asked, "What does an excellent beginning look like?"

Ukyo Kouzi replied: "Based on the above, insert some mysterious and powerful writing style."

Xiaoju seemed to have been enlightened.

As a new writer who had only written short stories of less than 100,000 words, her writing skills were still a little lacking. What was the best way for an author to hone her writing skills? The answer was to keep writing, not to worry about the old drafts. Something that even she wasn't satisfied with should be put in the recycling bin. So Xiaoju didn't hesitate to discard the 16,000 words and started a new one.

Mikawa Park, Toyohashi City.

If you were lucky enough to start paying attention to the news in the early days of the supernatural revival, you must have heard about the "Hanba Incident" that occurred in Sanhe Park.

And I was a witness to this battle.

.......

Flames spread out, and a red-gold, mountain-like figure rushed out. Yanaijian drew her gun and shot, the muzzle of the gun continuously spewing tongues of fire, but all the bullets were blocked by the "flame force field" around Hanba. When there was only one bullet left, the girl hesitated. Hanba's target was her. This monster ignored all the targets present and only rushed towards her. If it could eat her, would it be able to transform into the perfect form in the myth?

So the girl hesitated. She felt that the last bullet should be shot at herself. In this way, the crisis could be resolved.

But before she remembered to point the gun at herself, the moonlight suddenly appeared!

The burning flames were separated by a touch of freehand silver light, and the flames in the sky dissipated into smoke with the ultimate sword. The sword shadow was refracted in the remaining embers, turning into six consecutive sword slashes like a flying swallow, reflecting the freehand moonlight on the silver plate in the sky!

The red-skinned demon fell to the ground, and only the boy holding the knife could still stand.

"Ukyo... Ukyo..."

As the girl finished her disbelief, the monster called Hanba was cut into pieces that could not move...

At this point in the story, you must think I'm the handsome girl fighting alongside the hero, but that's not the case. When the battle took place, I was hiding behind a broken bench in Mikawa Park, peeking in. I was just an ordinary girl attending the festival. Back then, I never imagined that one day I would follow that man and become the person at the center of the story...

Works often have exaggerated elements. She didn't know that Ukyo almost died when he fought the drought demon. Yana saw that he didn't have a gun in his hand at the time, and she didn't hide behind the bench at all. Instead, she was ordered by Ukyo to stay at home and was forced to not go out.

But even though she had never experienced the battle herself, no one could stop her from compiling a record of that battle.

She replaced "Ukyo" and "Yanami" in the story with other names.

Youjing's identity is Chu Shunsheng, a foreign student from China. Before the supernatural revival began, he was the third-ranked killer on the world's dark web.

Yanami is now called Yano Shioriko, a mixed-race of Ukrainian and Japanese. She has gentle and three-dimensional facial features and is the most beautiful woman in their school. In the prologue, she handsomely defeated Himemiya Karen, but rejected him when Kusuke confessed his love, saying "I don't like ordinary men like you." I want to find a super boy who is worthy of the name Yano Shioriko.

Komari smiled darkly as she wrote. Yanami would not know that she had made her OOC until the work was published. Although Komari and Yanami seldom communicated in real life, when using LINE, Komari and Yanami were close friends who could talk about anything. So Komari knew very well what Yanami's ideal self was like. Yano Shioriko was the "ideal type" of Yanami that Komari considered.

So what role does Chika Komari play as the protagonist of the story?

If she only existed as a secret crush on the boss, it would be too depressing, so she set herself up as a "dark hero" with a golden finger -

Joanna Moore is a British student studying abroad. She has some freckles on her face, but upon closer inspection, she has very delicate facial features.

She was a hidden corner that the boss never noticed on weekdays. The boss knew that she existed and took good care of her, but he didn't know about her "golden finger."

That is the ability to summon "Onikiri" from the underworld. She can use the strongest demon-slaying sword "Onikiri" that was sealed by Genji himself. Every time she uses it, it is an instant kill. She can handle things that Chu Shunsheng and Yano Shioriko can't handle. No matter what level of monster, as long as Onikiri appears, there is no situation that cannot be solved. It is invincible in the setting.

But Ukyo once said in a meeting with their supernatural literature club that the golden finger cannot be too invincible and must have limitations, otherwise it will greatly destroy the subsequent expectations. So Xiaoju added a limit to her own golden finger, that is, Onikiri can only be used four times. This is a deal between her and Onikiri.

Once the four-time usage limit is over, Onikiri will pierce her body and use her as nourishment for the demon sword to return to the world. At that time, she will transform into the strongest demon in the world and confront the boss, and then be killed by the boss himself.

After Xiaoju finished writing the beginning, she began to write the outline. She suddenly felt that the story was sad and melodramatic, and it might not be read if it was put into a male-oriented light novel.

First of all, it is difficult for them to understand the perspective of female characters, but it is very good to put it in the female channel. Yanami rarely reads light novels, and her eldest brother reads the male channel, so as long as she secretly publishes the work in the female channel, no one will know.

But the premise of all this is that the points of her works should not be too high.

Because the scoreboard of [Bungo Station] is gender-blind, any work with a high score will appear on it. Also, for some works that tend to be group portraits, the editor will manually cancel their classification and allow the works to appear on both the male and female channels. This will help the works to go viral and will be very helpful for subsequent anime or comics adaptations.

Xiaoju repeatedly reviewed the 4,000-word introduction she had just written. This time, it finally didn't look so much like shit. Just as she was about to click upload, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her.

"It's well written~, maybe I can hit 2000 points on the first day~"

"Eh?!" Xiaoju's pupils suddenly narrowed as she looked at the screen. She saw the familiar long azure hair in the reflection of the phone screen.

“Eight, eight, eight…”

"It's Yanami! Stupid Komari! Why are you so nervous?"

Xiaoju's throat rolled and he swallowed his saliva. Then he patted his chest and took a deep breath and said, "Yana, when did you come?"

Yanami pointed at Komari's screen and said, "When you used the Replace All function to change my name to Yano Shioriko, I did knock on your door, but you seemed so engrossed in editing the article that you didn't notice me at all."

"So, you, you... you read everything I wrote?"

"Of course. What does it matter? Isn't the purpose of writing an article for others to read?"

"I, that's not what I meant. I meant...never mind. It's okay."

Xiaoju suddenly put away her phone and covered her head with the quilt.

"Can you, please, not tell Ukyo?"

Yanami put the lunch box on the table and said, "I think your writing is very good. If the points on the first day exceed 2,000, your work will automatically appear on the new book list. It will be difficult for Ukyo to miss it then, right?"

It seems to be true, things seem to have fallen into a vicious circle.

However, what Xiaoju cares about most is Yanami's attitude.

She has already seen what I wrote, so is there nothing I want to say?

Xiaoju, who had her head buried in the quilt, spoke in a stammering voice: "Yanami, you... aren't you angry?"

"Wu...Wu...Wu...What?"

Xiaoju heard some strange noises, like the sound of chewing food.

This made Xiaoju lift the quilt covering her head a little, wanting to see what Yanami was doing outside. As a result, she saw her secretly eating the dinner she brought for her.

Xiaoju has not eaten since he was injured. Although he has been injected with glucose, he cannot suppress the hunger in his stomach.

"Damn you, you stealing cat! Leave some for me!"

Volume 88: Chapter "Peaky Blinders" and the "Peach Blossom Demon" in disguise

Ukyo had no idea what was happening in the hospital.

He hasn't killed all the crows in the school yet. During the time when Xiaoju was unconscious in the hospital, he and Maori had been cleaning up the remaining crows in the school.

But it is impossible to set up a barrier in the sky, so many crows still fly out.

The government issued a "Beware of Crows" notice to citizens that night, and reminded everyone not to go out tonight, otherwise the government's "crow hunting" operation might accidentally injure civilians.

This so-called crow hunting operation actually involves mobilizing several Onmyoji transferred from Tokyo to set up a "barrier specifically for finding crows" within Toyohashi City, and then jointly launch the top sniper technique to wipe out the crows.

However, their formation was not as good as Kaguya-hime in finding crows, which resulted in Ukyo and Mori doing the finishing work for several days.

Mao Li complained to him about his work during this period, which reminded him of the days when he was a child in the countryside, shooting sparrows with a sniper rifle equipped with "BB bullets". At that time, the elders in his family warned him that if he bullied small animals casually, he would definitely suffer retribution when he grew up. Mao Li didn't take it seriously at the time, but now he feels that working overtime until 12 o'clock every day and shooting strange birds and crows with a police pistol everywhere in the city are retribution for his childhood.

Ukyo didn't mind working overtime with his friend. He felt happy listening to Maori talk about everything every night. He was obviously a young man not even 30 years old, but once he talked about his past experiences, he seemed to be 40 years older than Ukyo and could talk endlessly.

It was ten days later that he returned to school.

He has been very busy recently, so he didn't have much time to check the Wenhao website. He didn't know that Xiaoju's work had reached 10 points in 16000 days, and even the editor went to the comment section to urge for updates.

After hearing that Xiaoju was just a girl who was a little depressed on weekdays, the editor even personally came to provide psychological counseling to her, saying that... She used to be a little unknown in the class and was even bullied by bad boys. At that time, she took a leave of absence from school to write a novel for a while. After the successful publication of her first work, she became much more confident.

Not only was her stuttering cured, but when she went to school again, everyone looked at her with admiration, especially the boys who used to bully her. Now they all became her little dogs, calling her "goddess".

If Youjing knew about this, he would definitely advise Xiaoju not to believe her toxic chicken soup.

She only texts you online every day to comfort you because your grades are doing well. If your grades drop, it will be hard to get her to pay you any more attention. The truth of the workplace is that until you are sure your boss is a good person, don't believe his toxic chicken soup.

Youjing has a deep understanding of this. When he thinks back on the past, he often feels that he was pua by an old gentleman.

........

After returning to school, the walls of the entire building were cleaned very cleanly, and there was no smell of bird blood or internal organs.

At the same time, the day for the Ishifu Festival is getting closer.

The atmosphere related to the Ishiba Festival can be seen everywhere on campus.

Ukyo bumped into a "Spider-Man" in the corridor, who was dressed in black and using a cane.

He thought he was being haunted by some weird thing again, but when he came to his senses, he found that it was just a cosplay of a classmate from the same school. He looked like a medieval variant of Spider-Man, and not only him, but also a whole team of strange-looking "spider masks" followed him.

Ukyo then remembered that the day of the Ishifu Festival was also Halloween, and it seemed that many clubs had prepared performances for the garden party.

The high school students seemed to have no fear that supernatural events would happen again during the Ishifu Festival. But think about it, when disasters become a daily routine, the things that were originally scary are not that scary anymore. What's more, the current Ishifu High School is designated as a "supernatural focus" by Toyohashi City. The students' schedule has been added with an "exorcism class" which is held five times a week and has squeezed out several main subjects such as Chinese, math and English.

In addition, some Onmyoji from ancient families transferred from Tokyo have also taken their seats on campus. They have used the "Pokémon Seal" to set up some kind of barrier around Ishigaki High School. Ordinary local monsters cannot easily invade the school, but Ukyo found that this barrier could not stop the "Cyber ​​Ghost" because the Nekomata and Gyuto installed in his mobile phone can pass through normally. He doesn't understand these Japanese curse seals very well. Perhaps individuals like Nekomata who have become "Shikigami" will not trigger the barrier?

Ukyo also agreed to participate in the class activities. He promised his homeroom teacher, Gan Xia, that he and several boys in the class would cosplay as "Peaky Blinders" and "parade" during the Ishinobi Festival. For this purpose, he specially asked his mother to order a retro Birmingham-style suit from a suit shop.

The other boys in the class were very shocked by this. In their eyes, Ukyo has always been a good student who doesn't fit in with the group. He only has eyes for the girls in his club office and doesn't care about anything else. He is either killing monsters or on his way to kill monsters. The key point is that you can still see him in the classroom every day. Even when all the psychic detectives in the world were fooled by that clown, he still appeared in the classroom, so he got the nickname "the walking corpse".

His companion Kento Mizuki suspects that Ukyo has a clone. His real body is always outside killing monsters, while the one who goes to school in his place is just an emotionless clone.

Caojie said, "I'm mistaken." He thought the person in the class must be Ukyo's puppet. After all, only a puppet would have such a blank expression. Moreover, he had been "beaten" by Ukyo before. That guy's hands were as hard as pliers and his skin was as cold as silicone. He certainly didn't look like a human made of flesh.

The friends were all shocked. They asked him, "What's the matter?"

Ukyo didn't realize that he had become the center of other people's gossip again. Boys might be more scary than girls when they gossip.

“Let…let…let…let…let…let…!!!”

Ukyo was about to go upstairs at the corner when Tsuchimikado Kenmu, who came from Tokyo, asked him to go to the top floor, saying that he had some knowledge about the Platycodon Seal that he wanted to ask him. He had seen the Exorcist Golden Light Seal that he had used in the video, and felt that it was something more advanced than Seimei's Platycodon Seal, so he really wanted to learn from him.

When Youjing was about to go upstairs around the corner, a girl with her arms full of things stumbled up from above, repeating the word "let".

Youjing witnessed with his own eyes how Hualian comically tied her right foot with her left foot, then staggered and lost control of her inertia, pressing towards him at the stairs.

The image of the Spider-Man team that just passed by him flashed through his mind, and just before the pink-haired cow was about to hit its head on the floor, he reached out to hold the cow's waist, and with his other hand, he supported the cow steadily, catching the debris that flew out of the girl's hand one by one like an acrobatic performance, paying tribute to Tobey Maguire's classic scene in the 2002 version of Spider-Man.

“——Wow!”

At the same time, students passing by the corridor stared at the scene in amazement.

"Avatar! I said he was a vatar! How could a human being do such a thing?"

"I think it's a puppet! ...Wait...Hua Lian, are you okay?"

Caojie hurriedly took Hualian from Youjing's arms and started a wave of love and affection.

Hua Lian seemed to have not yet recovered from the dizziness she had just felt, and she stared at You Jing with a dazed look in her eyes.

"So handsome..." When Karen stared at him with wide eyes, there seemed to be a flash of light around the girl, like the designated female warrior who appeared in the first episode of a pure love drama, produced by A agency or Kyoto Animation. The flashing light began to dance around Karen Himemiya.

"Ah~, no, thank you! I meant to say thank you."

Hua Lian suddenly came to her senses and bowed apologetically, saying, "I almost bumped into you. I didn't say the first sentence by accident."

She tilted her head to look at the weeds beside her, scratched her head naively and said, "Let's go."

"Wait." Hua Lian said to You Jing very naturally: "You Jing, I have always wanted to talk to you, can you..."

"Come to the club office after school." Ukyo pointed ahead, indicating that he was going upstairs now.

"Tsuchimikado is looking for me."

"Oh, sorry." She and Caojie made way at the same time.

Caojie didn't get jealous just because his girlfriend said other boys were handsome in front of him. After Ukyo went upstairs, he was already staring at his back, narrowing one eye and saying, "Is it a puppet? I remember there's puppetry in the new Onmyoji textbook. I should review it when I get home. Maybe I can figure it out on my own."
