Chapter 104: "I am a Cat" Second Issue Serialization Explosion Booster - Okinawa American Girl Atrocity Incident (Two in One)
With the joining of Mayumi Aso, the last piece of the puzzle for the film production team of "The Akuyama Literary Award Serial Murder Case" has been completed.
Kitagawa Hideo spent 9 yen to ask the shrine maiden of Asakusa Shrine to calculate an auspicious date in the last week of September, and held a simple start-up ceremony at the shooting location provided by Kawaide Shizuko.
In Japan's film and television industry, the crew will organize small activities before and after filming to increase the sense of ceremony.
For example, during the opening ceremony, a large tribute table with several layers is placed in a large open space. A group of crew members, like sworn brothers with the neighboring underworld organization, are led by the chief producer. Each person holds a stick of incense and worships the gods on the tribute table, which are then burned to pray for smooth filming and box office success.
Kitagawa Hide didn't know much about the entertainment industry, but he knew that some writers also had superstitious habits when writing books, such as going to a temple to pray before opening a new book, or going to a shrine to find a shrine maiden to remove impurities from their bodies.
Some even have to choose a good time to publish or release a book, for fear of angering the gods and having their novel fail miserably.
Kitagawa Hide has always kept a distance from the belief in ghosts and gods, but it seems that his friends here are quite superstitious about this, so he followed the local customs and spent 1 yen to buy this big offering table and the decorations on it.
The first layer of the big tribute table is placed with a female doll with eight arms, holding a pipa, and wearing an eight-lotus crown on her head. The two layers below are kneeling shrine maiden dolls and tributes such as water and cakes.
"The TV drama crew likes to use Yunzhong Juejianji, but we prefer the goddess Benzaiten." Seeing that his expression was full of curiosity, Iwai Shunji, who was standing by, whispered to Kitagawa Hide.
Benzaiten is one of the Seven Lucky Gods in Japanese mythology, commonly known as Fukujizai God, and is the only goddess among the Seven Lucky Gods.
Legend has it that she is proficient in music, a goddess of eloquence, and in charge of the arts, music and other literary and artistic fields.
The Seven Lucky Gods originated from the Buddhist concept that seven calamities will be eliminated and seven blessings will bring rebirth. They first became popular in Kyoto during the Muromachi period. There are still shrines and temples dedicated to the Seven Lucky Gods in various districts of Kyoto. They are also considered to be the most well-known local gods.
After listening to Iwai Shunji's introduction, Kitagawa Hide suddenly realized that this custom and legend is quite "Japanese".
As for why the film industry and the television industry should be distinguished as both are in the entertainment industry?
As we all know, the Japanese in all walks of life have a strong "craftsman spirit" in their bones, and under the impetus of this concept of continuous improvement, a morbid sense of pride has gradually emerged.
"We can't be like them," they always think like this, and then they have to come up with something different from their peers and neighboring industries.
So it is quite strange that even in such a small matter, the two circles have to be distinguished.
Everything was ready. Kitagawa Hide took the lead holding a stick of incense, and the people behind him lined up in order according to their seniority and position.
After offering incense to the goddess Benzaiten, he reached out and struck the bell. Amid the clear and lingering sound, everyone bowed 90 degrees again, sincerely begging the goddess Benzaiten to bless them, so that the filming would go smoothly and become a big hit after its release.
After the worship was completed, the staff brought a brazier and threw Benzaiten and the witch dolls into it and burned them.
It is said that they will return to heaven and watch the work here until the filming is completed.
Kitagawa Hide and others stood aside and saw the rising smoke. It seemed that the crew's luck and morale had really increased.
He thought that if he had brought the system with him, small words like "Luck +1, Morale +1" would probably appear above his head by now.
"How do you feel?" Shizuko Kawaide asked Kitagawa Hide in a low voice. As the shooting period was approaching these days, Kitagawa Hide was obviously nervous and busy.
"The pressure is too great and failure is not an option," Kitagawa Hide replied seriously.
The chief producer, the major investor and the original author of the script all said this. Iwai Shunji next to him and a group of staff behind him suddenly became nervous and under great pressure, but at the same time they were also inspired by Kitagawa Hide's belief and were full of energy!
As expected of Mr. Beichuan! He is so serious and demanding in everything he does!
All Kitagawa Hide was thinking about was money.
From this moment on, everything that happened here, every second that passed, was burning up his little treasury.
Although you have a lot of money, you can't waste it at will!
So we must cheer up and make this movie well!
Not long ago, Kodansha paid him 1 million yen in copyright fees for "Youth Trilogy". Before the money arrived, the National Tax Agency deducted more than 3900 million yen in taxes, which made him very distressed.
Combined with his previous savings, Kitagawa Hide now has about 1.88 million yen in his hands, so it is not a problem to shoot this low-budget movie.
Moreover, Shizuko Kawaide secretly invested 1000 million yen and generously stated that if the movie flopped at the box office, it would be okay if she lost all her capital. If it made a profit, she would just have her capital returned to her and she did not want any share of the box office revenue.
Kitagawa Hide has always been a person who "gives me a peach, and I will repay you with a jade pendant". With the big boss being so loyal, he has also put in a lot of effort to make "Wenyi" surpass "Qunxing" before the end of the year and get rid of the notoriety of being the last one in the ranking.
After the crew started filming, Kitagawa Hide is still busy in various places. In order to formulate the topic of his next new book, he has recently been studying the current social situation and the literary works that the main readers of "Gun Portrait" like to read.
After two weeks in the group, the filming of Jabami Rei's scenes was officially completed, and she took Agatsuma Yumeko and followed Professor Takeuchi Osamu to Kyoto University to have literary exchanges with professors and students there.
During this period, with the conclusion of the first "Literary Haiku Competition" held by Kawaide Shobo and the publication of the winning works, a new wave of haiku creation emerged in society and on the Internet.
This new theme pioneered by Hide Kitagawa has become a text tool for people to entertain themselves and make comments in their daily lives. Even the windows of the Tokyo subway have been replaced with interesting haiku slogans.
This wave of popularity has brought many new haiku poets to fame, the most famous of whom is Mayumi Aso.
Mayumi Aso, who doesn't even know she's famous, is playing the role of a housewife in the crew with great dedication.
In order to balance her daughter and work, she resolutely quit all her odd jobs, took her daughter to the filming location, filmed during the day, and coaxed her daughter to sleep in the public dormitory at night.
This makeshift film team casually put together by Mr. Kitagawa and Shunji Iwai may seem unreliable, but their cohesion is actually very strong.
These people are either unsuccessful in their careers or eliminated from various industries. When they sit together, they have a lot of common topics, and there are none of the disgusting things that are common in film crews.
Everyone helped each other, chatted in their spare time, encouraged each other, or exchanged performing arts experiences and appreciation of Mr. Beichuan's works. They soon became friends.
Because the filming location was far away from Aso Aiko's kindergarten, driver Kinoshita, after obtaining permission from Kawaide Shizuko, acted as the little girl's driver, solving Aso Mayumi's biggest headache of transporting her child.
And when she was filming and couldn't take care of Aiko, Keigo Higashino's three-man team and Kinoshita's driver and bodyguard team took on the role of nannies and helped take care of Aiko.
For the first time, Mayumi Aso felt a sense of belonging among a group of strangers. She had no way to repay the feeling, so she took on the role of cook for the crew, often cooking delicious meals for everyone. In her free time, she would write haiku and submit them to Rena Saito.
Others were also inspired by his spirit and worked and filmed like crazy.
When you're focusing hard on something, time flies.
Twenty days of the golden autumn of October have passed in a flash, and the publications of the five major publishing houses have appeared one after another, launching the second sales battle in this October.
This wave of fighting revolved around the haiku market and was incredibly bloody. The five major publishing houses were unwilling to give in to each other and all invested huge amounts of money in it.
On the subway.
Beichuan Xiucai came back from driving school. Thanks to the fact that he had taken the test once in his previous life, he passed the most difficult skills test smoothly.
The subsequent road test is similar to the next one. The safety officer next to you will escort you throughout the whole process. You just need to control the steering wheel and step on the accelerator. Once a dangerous situation occurs, the safety officer on the co-pilot seat will step on the brakes before you. It is basically not difficult at all.
Of course, it is also necessary to secretly give the other party 5000 yen as a "hardship fee" after the test, otherwise the security officer will have various ways to make you fail the test and retake it, and they will change their faces faster than turning pages of a book.
After the road test is over, you just need to go to the police station for a physical and psychological examination, and you can get your driver's license smoothly.
Beichuan Xiu's road test is at the end of this month, and he will get the first certificate of this life by mid-November at the latest. He has already started thinking about what luxury car to buy.
The subway car was swaying, and the billboards on both sides were covered with new haiku, most of which were from the winning works of the first "Literary Haiku Competition".
As companies such as Tokyo Metro use them for various commercial operations, copyright fees are deposited into the bank accounts of these creators.
Japan's copyright protection law is not an empty shell. Once any original work is borrowed by others for commercial purposes, a copyright fee must be paid to the original author.
Therefore, ordering songs in a KTV in Japan will incur copyright fees, which will be paid directly to the company to which the creator belongs.
Kitagawa Hide's new style of haiku not only activated the market, but also provided a job for many grassroots creators. The best among them earned quite a bit of money, because other publishing houses were also scrambling to learn from "Wenyi" and start haiku competitions, with each prize offering higher than the last.
The first to try it out, Wen Yi, naturally made the most money. However, Mayumi Aso, the champion of the first Wen Yi Haiku Competition, who is still studying and filming diligently in the film crew, has no idea that she has become famous in the Tokyo haiku circle!
Her song "The One Who Makes the Decision" has been quoted and posted the most times. Every time it is used commercially, she will earn 1 yen. Now the accumulated income has exceeded yen and is now quietly lying in the public account of Kawaide Shobo.
Saito Reina said that after the filming was finished, she would just give her the money along with the film remuneration to give her a surprise.
Mayumi Aso's life before was really hard.
At this time, Kitagawa Hide held the Yomiuri Shimbun in one hand and the Asahi Shimbun in the other, and at the same time pricked up his ears to listen to the readers' comments on "I Am a Cat" on the subway to see whether the overall trend of the new book met his expectations.
"Hey, hey, hey, have you read the latest issue of "Wenyi"? " The female white-collar workers opposite whispered to each other.
"'Wenyi'? Is it the magazine that serialized 'I Am a Cat'?" asked a fellow office worker curiously.
"Yes, yes. The author of I Am a Cat is Mr. Kitagawa Hide, the young and handsome writer who wrote No Longer Human and gave lectures at the University of Tokyo!"
The female office worker nodded.
"This new novel started serialization last time. When I first read it, I thought the perspective was a little peculiar. The cat's movements and habits were vividly described, and it was very graphic. The plot was not interesting, but this issue..."
"What's wrong with this issue?" the companion couldn't help but ask.
Some people around were also attracted by her words.
This kind of suspenseful statement is very likely to arouse people's interest. Kitagawa Hideya smiled and pricked up his ears to hear what she thinks about the new episode of "I Am a Cat".
Judging from their conversation, these people are not the core audience of pure literature, and this group can often more intuitively reflect the quality of a novel.
Excellent works often have great popularity among the public and can also attract more audiences outside the circle.
"This issue is very, very, very interesting!" The female white-collar worker smiled. "The story features a chaebol family like the Kaneda family, and Mrs. Kaneda with a big nose. Her ugly face is very vividly described! The most interesting part is the story. Mrs. Kaneda wants to marry her daughter to Hanyue."
Kitagawa Hide listened and nodded with satisfaction. At least from the reactions of these white-collar workers, they were beginning to develop a strong interest in the plot of the novel.
Because this era lacked truly critical and satirical literary works, it was unheard of for a writer like Kitagawa Hide to portray the "chaebols" in such a straightforward and stereotypical way.
Mrs. Kaneda in "I Am a Cat" has a "big nose", while Mr. Kaneda has a "flat nose". The two extreme situations combined together are extremely funny and the irony is evident on the paper. Even those who don't read much pure literature can see through Kitagawa Hide's thoughts at a glance.
This is the effect he wants.
Observe from the perspective of a cat, satirize capitalists, and deepen and strengthen this point through the so-called "literary group".
It is both curious and critical enough.
In fact, from a certain perspective, the criticism of him by Ichiko Sadaji and others is quite reasonable.
"The Youth Trilogy" is a romance story that tells the story of redemption, while "No Longer Human" is a decadent and rogue story that tells another kind of self-redemption.
Kitagawa Hide's works have never escaped this framework, and the Japanese literary world needs some more serious and critical works, so they are not optimistic about Kitagawa Hide.
Now it's all right, as you wish.
Kitagawa Hide was the first to take the first bite of the hot dividends of critical literature.
And this time he not only wants to take the first bite, but also eats up most of the cake in one bite!
Spread out the newspaper.
Mutsuro Takahashi and "Ichiro" are still at odds with each other. The former continues to promote the "Haiku Saint" and tries his best to attribute the pinnacle of haiku to him, while the latter continues to smear and slander Kitagawa Hide, and this time he also involved Mayumi Aso.
"Ichiro"'s writing skills are as excellent as ever. He said that he originally admired Kitagawa Hide. Although his haiku are not as good as those of the "Haiku Saint", they are at least remarkable in contemporary times, except for those two limericks.
But as "Wenyi" launched the haiku competition, Mayumi Aso won the award and became famous, which made him "heartbroken" and felt that it was Kitagawa Hide's "blasphemous" behavior that completely destroyed the traditional subject of haiku.
He is not the creator of history, but the destroyer of history.
Is a sinner.
As he keeps putting one hat on another, one can't help but admire this guy's methods.
Kitagawa Hide was very curious about how much money "Ichiro" had received and why he was staring at him and scolding him?
If he could make a lot of money by criticizing himself, he wouldn't even mind using a pseudonym to make a cameo appearance.
Make money, not shabby.
The two men's jumping around made Kitagawa Hide realize one thing.
The haiku column that Gunzo had invested heavily in was indeed destroyed by his impact, and it had reached the point where it had to resort to vicious competition.
This is a great thing.
Although Mrs. Kaneda was used to mock Airi Noma in "I Am a Cat", it ultimately failed to cause any substantial harm to her.
But now it is different. The competition in the haiku market may shake the foundation of "Gunzo".
Kitagawa Hide judged that Gunzo was in a very anxious and embarrassing situation at the moment through two things. First, after the completion of A Sheep Chase last month, the popularity of Gunzo dropped sharply. Even though there were a lot of new haiku, essays and competitions in this issue, it was still difficult to hide the decline. From the terrifying sales of 9 copies in September, it directly plummeted to the embarrassing data of only 72.1 copies sold in less than half a month this month.
Wen Yi, which had always been at the bottom of the list, achieved sales of 9 copies in September, surpassing the 1995 record high. Its sales volume doubled, ranking fourth among the five major pure literature magazines, slightly higher than the 65.4 copies of Qun Xing.
So far this month, the sales of "Wenyi" have exceeded 40 copies in half a month, directly beating "Qun Xiang".
Second, Mutsuro Takahashi, who had been living in seclusion in Kyoto, came out.
He said that he would attend the recent college literature exchange meeting held at Kyoto University and serve as a special guest for the haiku exchange.
Mutsuro Takahashi also publicly stated that the works of the "Haiku Saint" have created a new genre that far exceeds his own achievements. During this exchange, he will give students an in-depth analysis of this genre.
This is forcibly creating a god.
Kitagawa Hide was waiting for this moment. As soon as he returned to "Peter Cat", he immediately called Yumeko-chan who was far away in Kyoto.
I called three times but no one answered the phone. Finally someone picked up the phone on the fourth time.
"Moshimoshi? Mengzi-chan?" Kitagawa Hide asked hurriedly.
"Uh, it's me." Jabami Rei on the other end of the phone hadn't taken the initiative to talk to Kitagawa Hide for more than a month.
She just couldn't accept that.
Although the two figures in her mind were gradually overlapping, the sense of separation, shyness, and inexplicable emotions became stronger and stronger, making her a little unsure about how to face Kitagawa Hide.
It’s definitely not okay to call it a “parasite” like before!
He no longer has anything to do with that term.
Do I have to call him "Teacher Beichuan" respectfully?
She can't do it either, how embarrassing!
But if I call him by his real name, I would somehow feel that it would be disrespectful to my idol.
During this period, Jabami Rei felt as if she had suddenly found out that the kid next door was the man she had been dreaming of day and night. It was indescribably weird.
"Yumeko-chan is taking a shower. I saw you looked anxious, so I answered the phone. Sorry." Jabami Rei tried to calm herself down. "If it's urgent, I can call her for you?"
"It's not a very urgent matter. Jabami-san, do you have a pen and paper nearby?" Kitagawa Hide glanced at the manuscript paper in front of him, on which were written three new haiku.
"There is yes"
"Please copy down the three new haiku I wrote." Without waiting for her reaction, Kitagawa Hide read the three haiku to her.
Since Mutsuro Takahashi was going to Kyoto University to promote Haiku, he had to lend a helping hand.
It would probably be difficult for him to play the one "Thoraku Tanka", so Kitagawa Hide wrote three more in the name of the Haiku Master of the University of Tokyo, and then asked the haiku research group that would participate in the exchange to announce them in advance so that Mutsuro Takahashi would have something to "play".
These three songs are masterpieces carefully selected by Kitagawa Hide.
They are respectively "Ogi Flowers" by Matsuo Basho, the "Haiku Saint" in the original history:
In the cool September of autumn, white reeds bloom, one liter of dew produces one liter of flowers.
"Heart Grass" by Masaoka Shiki, one of the two great haiku masters:
The grass in my yard is sprouting again, and the boundless world is about to turn green.
Hometown by Kobayashi Issa:
My hometown is full of thorny flowers, layer upon layer.
"Is this Mr. Kitagawa's new work?" On the other end of the phone, Jabami Rei's scalp was tingling and her fingers were shaking.
Recently, after "I Am a Cat" and Kitagawa Hideki's haiku were published one after another, this group of students from the Faculty of Literature of the University of Tokyo suffered again.
Takeuchi Osamu, one of Kitagawa Hide's die-hard fans, analyzed these new works overnight. After expressing his deep feelings, he asked his students to study them carefully and write long reviews for future literary exchanges.
Jabami Rei, the number one fan, naturally couldn't escape, but she really liked Kitagawa Hide's haiku, and was so shocked that she blurted out "Kitagawa teacher".
"No, this is a new work by the haiku master." Kitagawa Hide chuckled, "It's for you to use at the exchange meeting."
Jabami Rei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Because she participated in the filming of "The Akuyama Literary Award Serial Murder Case", she knew about the feud between Kitagawa Hide and Kodansha.
Now suddenly a bunch of bigwigs have emerged to praise the haiku master and belittle Kitagawa Hide, the situation speaks for itself.
Her mind raced, and she immediately understood Kitagawa Hide's intention.
OK!
Now I don’t seem to be alone anymore!
Thinking of the embarrassment of those great people who praised the saint of haiku when they learned that the saint of haiku was Kitagawa Hidetoki, Jabami Rei suddenly became excited.
She can't be the only one who awkwardly digs her way out of a three-bedroom apartment with her toes!
"I understand. I'll tell Yumeko-chan later." Jabami Rei nodded continuously.
After hanging up the phone, Kitagawa Hide was thinking about when to give these people a fatal blow, while Pete, who was standing next to him, jumped to the TV remote control with his fat butt twisted.
"Click".
Cat paw pressed down.
The TV was turned on.
"This cat became a spirit after being castrated?!" Kitagawa Hide was shocked.
Fortunately, Pete just stepped over with the remote control and didn't sit down like a real person to watch TV.
Otherwise, given Kitagawa Hide's experience of time traveling, he would probably have to treat it as a "fellow traveler" who had traveled through time.
The TV jumped to Fuji TV, which was currently broadcasting the news.
"On October 1995, 10, the police found the body of a female college student on a remote road outside an industrial area in Okinawa. According to the police, the body was covered with tape, and her limbs were tied up. She had been brutally raped for a long time before her death."
". The three murderers have been found. They are Marcus Gill (22 years old), Roderico Harp (21 years old) and Kendrick Reddit (20 years old), who are all US Marines working at Camp Hansen in Jinzhen, Okinawa Prefecture. On the day of the incident, they rented a car at the base and kidnapped a female college student who was shopping in the northern shopping district of Okinawa Main Island. They then took her to a nearby beach, raped her, and killed and dumped her body. The following is a recording of a telephone interview with the murderer."
The pen in Kitagawa Hide's hand paused.
The voice continued to come from the TV: ". Japanese women, because of the 'stigma' in Japanese culture, will not report it even if they are raped. So I thought I would not be caught even if I raped a local woman."
"She passed our car and we could see her more and more clearly. Then the voice said to me: This is her. She is the one who can satisfy all my delusions."
"I was arrested because she died unexpectedly, but I didn't intend to kill her. Because if she died, I wouldn't be able to have sex with her."
"When I abandoned her, I thought she said something. I felt like she was still alive, so I stabbed her a few more times to confirm."
The English in the phone recording was not translated into Japanese, but that did not prevent Kitagawa Hide from understanding it.
Then he remembered that this was a famous event that shocked Japan and the world.
The "Okinawa American Military Girls Atrocity Incident" occurred in 1995!
The reason why this incident became so famous is not because of the title. After all, the US military has a base in Okinawa, and such incidents have been common since the 50s after the war and are no longer surprising.
Although the incident this time was rather bad, the girl student's childhood sweetheart burst into tears. The two were originally going to get married during next year's graduation season, but now they are separated forever.
But that's really it.
The US military has committed many more cruel and perverted atrocities.
The reason why this incident caused such a huge international sensation was because of Japan’s response.
During the subsequent trial, the murderers’ Japanese defense lawyers claimed: “They took an overdose of sleeping pills before the crime, which may have led to auditory and visual hallucinations. In addition, the defendants have suffered from ADHD and mental disorders since childhood.”
Toshio Tagami, a famous Japanese right-winger and former chief of staff of the Air Self-Defense Force, claimed that the Okinawa women dressed up so flashy that they were targeted by the US military!
My goodness, history really is a cycle. Similar words have exploded in the Internet age, triggering conflicts between men and women for a long time.
I didn’t expect that the Japanese right wing would have such “profound ideas” in 95.
This kind of prejudice and discrimination is not only directed at women. When facing the protesters in Okinawa, the police who came from mainland Japan casually used insulting words such as "natives".
After that, things escalated and the Japanese chaebols were caught in the act.
As if they had agreed, these capitalists all stood on the side of the US military and denounced the ungrateful Okinawa people on their behalf.
The victim has become the perpetrator.
In the process of public opinion explosion, the "upper class" writers in the literary world were not to be outdone and jumped out one after another to express their support for the capitalists.
Just like what is written in "I am a Cat".
In modern Japanese society, money rules everything, and Mr. Kaneda is the "uncrowned king" of society. He has the ability to make people "live or die."
The cat said pointedly: "Now I understand that it is money that makes everything in the world move. Apart from the capitalists, there are no other people who can fully understand the function of money and can flexibly exert the power of money."
And those literati who appear to "scorn" capitalists in novels will, at the truly critical moment, betray their own class and become the mouthpieces of the capitalists!
There have been so many things going on recently, and Kitagawa Hide didn’t pay much attention to the news, so he actually forgot about such a big thing!
Now, how does the saying go?
When you put your heart and soul into doing something, you will feel like the whole world is helping you!
Kitagawa Hide has a hunch that as the "US military incident" continues to develop, "I Am a Cat" will experience an unprecedented wave of popularity.
His satire and criticism are just right and at the right time!
Sure enough, in the following days, as expected, as the defense lawyer's true colors were exposed, filial sons and daughters who came to defend the US military emerged one after another.
After the capitalists went, the intellectuals followed, and then the literary critics.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that they were hitting a wall this time.
According to past experience, the government will give in after seeing the fate of so many people, and then all it needs to do is shut the mouths of the people of Okinawa.
As for those murderers, just find a reason to deport them back to their country.
But this time, the Tomiichi Murayama cabinet did not let them go.
According to historical records, the main reason why Tomiichi Murayama stepped down in January 1996 was because he forced the trial of these American soldiers, which led to his loss of support from the United States, and he was then directly replaced by Ryutaro Hashimoto.
The Liberal Democratic Party also regained power, and the Socialist Party has since fallen into decline.
Of course, this matter is still fermenting and it will not be resolved so quickly.
Mori Tetsutarou, who was also paying attention to this matter at home, felt that there was an opportunity. He had been seeing "Ichiro" and others scolding Mr. Kitagawa these days, and he was extremely angry.
Unfortunately, two fists cannot beat four hands, and his manuscripts were rejected by many newspapers because he followed the others in criticizing the Akutagawa Prize.
He wanted to keep quiet for a while.
But isn't this exactly the same as what is written in "I Am a Cat"?
"I don't have to hold the US military hostage. I can be more roundabout and support I Am a Cat. Isn't that the greatest support for Mr. Kitagawa and the best satire on them?"
Mori Tetsutarou gritted his teeth and began writing a literary review that would change his life.
"Teacher Kitagawa, please don't let the final chapter of the next issue of "I Am a Cat" suck. I'm betting my life on you!"
The Prime Minister's official residence and office.
Tomiichi Murayama felt a headache as he looked at the pile of documents. The pressure on him had increased because he had recently dealt with the Aum Shinrikyo cult.
This time there is another "US military incident", and it is so bad.
"Sir, I've bought the new issue of 'Wenyi' for you." Secretary Ozawa handed over the magazine, which had been on sale for almost two weeks.
Tomiichi Murayama liked the haiku from the previous issue and "I am a Cat", and the new style of haiku has even become popular in various government departments.
"I Am a Cat" also became a good reading material for him to pass the time in his spare time.
"They put their noses and eyes on the banknotes";
"Capitalists will do anything as long as they can make money";
Seeing that the Kaneda couple had bribed Luoyun Pavilion and made Kushami restless, Murayama Tomiichi frowned in displeasure.
At the end of this episode, Mrs. Kaneda said triumphantly: "This guy will surrender soon."
Finally, Tomiichi Murayama's emotions exploded!
"Call the Minister of Defense and have him come to my place for a meeting!"
