Chapter 1:

Leap day!

Leap day!


Leap day!

...

"I'll just roll with it," the editor sighed.

"Good, and it will only be sold once every four years on leap day," Shiruka smirked.

"And it's literally just the words, "Leap day!" correct?"

"That it is, now get publishing."

"Well, I'm not going to argue, I'm in a good mood."

"Leap day it is then!"

"So glad to profit from your work again."

"I didn't miss that part, but at least we're bantering like old times."

...

"What are you mumbling to yourself about, ghost?" Reiju asked.

"Just a scenario for a new novel, Leap day!. I wanted to write it, but well, I got murdered on leap day. Since its now 2007, I only need to wait a year before I can release it, but in the meantime, I'll write the manuscripts and give the publishing companies a heads up," Shiruka smirked.

"Uh, you're a ghost!?"

"My publishing company is ghost friendly, heck its thanks to my boss, that I even came back as a ghost."

"I see. Well, whatever. Just let me know if you see any new mysteries."

"Speaking of which, I think its time I start writing the mystery novel I originally planned to write."

"Are you just gonna summarize our cases?"

"Yes, but I'll add a yowie to the mix."

"A yowie? Ugh, just call me when you've got a new mystery."

"We'll do."

"Heh, the ghost really is happy," Reiju smiled.
