The flashing lights at the dragon viewing scene were so dazzling that Maijo Kyousuke couldn't open his eyes.
As the applause died down, the flashing lights stopped flashing.
Matsumoto Seicho handed the microphone to Maijo Keisuke, apparently gesturing for Maijo Keisuke to give an acceptance speech.
Maijo Keisuke was also a mystery novelist in his previous life. He also relied on his love for mystery novels and won many awards, large and small, so he did not have any stage fright in front of an audience of nearly two thousand people.
Standing under the spotlight, feeling the adoring eyes of the newcomers and the appreciative eyes of the seniors, Maijo Kyousuke felt very satisfied. He immediately raised the Sherlock Holmes trophy and said to everyone in the audience in a charming voice:
"My name is Maijo Keisuke. Seven days ago, I was living in Adachi City, living a life of hunger in a dilapidated room. As a result, my life suddenly changed. I am standing here and have become a rising star of reasoning that everyone is eyeing."
"Although I was very poor at that time, I couldn't eat the next meal. At the worst time, I even went to the tasting area in the supermarket to make a living by trying food."
"But even so, I never gave up writing mystery novels, because I know clearly that with my ability, I will stand on this podium one day! Become someone who is appreciated and admired by you. exist!"
The words of Maijo Kyousuke made everyone in the audience a little surprised.
Because most of the recipients have a humble and low-key attitude.
They didn't expect that the seemingly gentle Maijo Kyousuke would not have any humility at all, but would instead look arrogant!
Although among Japanese writers, it is very common to have romantic debts, harassment scandals, corrupt private lives, arrogant personalities, and poor moral character.
Many writers like to call these things "literary character."
But among the group of mystery writers, this kind of "character" does not exist, because the society that most mystery writers denounce is so dirty, chaotic, and miserable.
So in fact, among the group of mystery writers, almost all of them are very repulsive to the so-called "literary character" and arrogant character!
Just when everyone in the audience was talking about it.
Maijo Kyousuke glanced at the reactions of everyone in the audience, smiled, and changed the topic back.
"When everyone hears my words, they will definitely think in their hearts, 'Wow! Why is this guy so arrogant? Why doesn't he know any humility? How can such an arrogant person deserve to win the Dragon Climb Award?'"
Maijo Kyousuke looked at the confused people in the audience and continued:
"I believe there are many people in the audience who have this idea, so let me answer your doubts!"
"The reason why I was able to win the Dragon Climb Award is because I clearly know that I cannot stand on this podium with my own strength."
"And I am able to stand here proudly today mainly thanks to two people who appreciate me, admire me, and are willing to work for me and move forward side by side with me!"
"Although I don't know what kind of efforts they have put in and how much sacrifice they have made behind my back, I know clearly that it is precisely because of their existence that I, Maijo Kyousuke, can stand today. it's here!!!"
Maijo Kyousuke looked at Eryumeimei and Uyama Himideomi who had tears in their eyes in the audience, and raised their hands holding the trophy:
"Mr. Yushan, Miss Jiangliu, have you seen it?"
"This trophy not only belongs to me, but also to you, because it is our common trophy!"
"Now, I want to invite you two to come on stage and share today's glory with me!!!"
Maijo Keisuke's impassioned speech made everyone in the audience understand that Maijo Keisuke was using his own way to repay Uyama Himideomi and Eryumeimei who dug themselves, appreciated themselves, and helped them.
Many people present had participated in the Climbing Dragon Award selection session five days ago and had seen Jiang Liumei’s heroic demeanor on stage!
Naturally, I have deep admiration for Jiang Liumei, the editor-in-chief of the magazine!
Then the audience burst into warm applause again!
Jiang Liu was beautiful and Yushan Richuchen stepped onto the podium amidst the applause of everyone.
Uyama Hiideomi has been working as an editor in the publishing department for fifteen years. During this period, he has discovered countless newcomers to the mystery industry.
Although none of these newcomers have the opportunity to have the great master Matsumoto Seicho personally award the award like Maijo Kyousuke.
But no matter who wins the award, the person who thanks him is either his parents or his wife and husband, but no one ever thanks the editor who discovered them, Uyama Hiideomi.
Therefore, this is the first time that Uyama Hinodeomi has been thanked by name in his fifteen years of working in the industry, and it is also the first time that he has attended an award ceremony!
Even though Uyama Himideomi is a grown man in his late forties, he was still so excited that he shed two lines of tears when he was called to the stage by Maijo Keisuke to share the joy with such warm applause!
Maijo Keisuke originally just wanted to hug Uyama Hiideomi, but who knew that as soon as Uyama Hiideomi stepped onto the stage, he gave himself a strong bear hug!
The huge impact made Maijo Keisuke's ribs hurt!
Maijo Keisuke rubbed his ribs. He originally planned to let Uyama Himideomi say a few lines on the scene, but who knew that this old boy turned out to be a "snobbery"!
As soon as he let go of his hand, he took out a pen and paper from his arms and ran to ask Matsumoto Seicho for an autograph!
Seeing this scene, Maijo Kyousuke looked at Eryumei, who was wiping her tears with her fingers, and opened her arms.
Eryumi was naturally happy when she saw Maijo Kyousuke opening her arms towards her.
But Eryumei was worried that her and Maijo Kyousuke's behavior on stage was too intimate, which would make a fuss about the media in the audience.
Therefore, Eryumi could only hold back the throbbing in her heart that she wanted to hug Maijo Kyousuke, and held Maijo Kyousuke's hand.
Maishiro Kyousuke didn't know that five days ago, Jiang Liumei was willing to give up his career to angrily criticize the judges for himself. He also didn't understand Jiang Liumei's concerns, and he didn't understand that Jiang Liumei did this for the sake of his future.
But when he saw that Eryumei was unwilling to hug him, but held her hand so enthusiastically, Maijo Kyousuke showed a look of loss and pain on his face.
However, this is normal, right?
Anyone who sees him and Kyoko Mitsuki in the mixed bathing pool will think that he is a carefree pervert, right?
The same goes for Ming Shen Qingyin, and the same goes for Jiangliu Mei.
Under that kind of coincidence, no one would believe themselves, right?
The complex expressions on Maijo Kyousuke's face were all caught in the delicate eyes of Eryu Mei.
This made Eryumi feel a little overwhelmed, because she clearly realized that although what she had just done would not make a big fuss in the media, it also caused Maijo Kyousuke to misunderstand her!
But what to do now? Explain in front of so many people?
Do you let yourself mess up the glorious moment that should belong to Maijo Keisuke?
Jiang Liumei bit her lower lip and lowered her head, not knowing how to deal with what was happening now.
Although Matsumoto Seicho was not at the scene five days ago, he heard from Miyoshi Teru that Eryome was as beautiful as Miss Suzue, and launched a fierce confrontation with the judges for Maijo Keisuke!
As the originator of the most powerful social group in describing women in the world, Matsumoto Seicho naturally understands Eryumi's complicated love, and even more clearly why Eryumi is unwilling to disclose her feelings for Maijo Keisuke.
Seeing Wucheng Jingjie's eyes showing disappointment, Jiang Liu was still speechless.
Matsumoto Seicho naturally wanted to temporarily separate the two to avoid misunderstandings and estrangement between them.
"Teacher Wucheng? Thank you very much."
"Why are you holding Miss Jiang Liu's hand and not letting go?"
With a half-joking remark, Matsumoto Seicho separated the tightly held hands of Eryumi and Maijo Keisuke, then looked at Maijo Keisuke and asked:
"Teacher Wucheng, I heard that you wrote "A Platycodon Flower" overnight."
"Since Mr. Maicheng is a quick writer, he should already have a plan for a new book, right?"
Although Maijo Keisuke didn't know why Matsumoto Seicho suddenly jumped out, fortunately, his sudden appearance prevented him from losing his composure just now.
"As for the new book... I am indeed writing it, and it has been written to the end."
Matsumoto Seicho originally just wanted to interrupt the embarrassing situation between Maijo Keisuke and Eryome.
But I didn’t expect that Maijo Keisuke is really writing the next book, and it has already entered the end!
Matsumoto Seicho, who created hundreds of works in his life, also asked in surprise:
"Teacher Wucheng, are you writing a novel? Or a short story?"
"Can you tell everyone here the general content of the story?"
When Maijo Keisuke heard Matsumoto Seicho's words, the disappointment on his face gradually turned into a proud smile:
"Is it a long novel, or should I say, a super long novel?"
"As for a story? It's a brand new reasoning model."
"It incorporates folklore, monsterology, psychology, brain science, and many other novel ideas."
"Although I'm a bit arrogant when I say that."
"However, I can guarantee that my next work will be a mystery novel that none of the writers here can write and have never read before!"
