Full-time cartoonist

Chapter 401 Tori Akino is working so hard (′へ` )

The manga ranked 26th is called "Naoki Hansawa".

Akimiya Akemi was very sorry, "If "Naoki Hansawa" can be ranked one more time, there will be four of your comics in the 100 selections, or..."

Continuing for a while longer.

"Naoki Hansawa" suffered from the short serialization time. It ended quickly before public opinion was fully heated.

"It's okay," Higashino Hibiki hugged his son and smiled, "That's enough, isn't it? The future."

"Yes!" Miku Higashino nodded seriously, "Dad is number one."

He was not surprised at all, and confidently believed that the first place in "Slam Dunk" was natural. He didn't even understand what "Slam Dunk" was about.

This is the child's trust in his father.

"You are such a clever little kid." Akimiya Akemi pinched the bridge of her son's nose, then rubbed his hair and smiled happily.

…

On Monday, Mirai Higashino put on his schoolbag and went to school.

He went out and looked at the empty door, still a little unable to adapt.

The school bus he was accustomed to was gone, and he could only walk to school. "Oh, from kindergarten to elementary school, I grew up."

Dong Yexiang looked at him and shook his head helplessly, "You are really a brat."

Dongye Mirai waited anxiously at the door for a while, and soon someone came over.

"Good morning, Mirai-chan."

"Brother Miyano, good morning."

The person coming was Ken Miyano. He smiled and waved to Mirai Higashino, and then bowed respectfully to Hibiki, "Tori Akino-sensei, it's really expected that "Slam Dunk" won the first place in Japanese comics."

"Thank you, I'm going to trouble you again this time."

"Where, by the way."

Ken Miyano, who was once a little brat, has entered junior high school, and his once childishness has turned into maturity.

The junior high school he attended was in the same direction as Meguro Elementary School, so he volunteered to take Miku Higashino to school with him.

Looking at him, Higashino Hibiki couldn't help but sigh, Ken Miyano already looks a bit like an adult at a young age.

I don't know whether to be happy or sad.

…

After bidding farewell to his father, Higashino Mirai skipped to school.

"Brother Miyano," he said excitedly, "there is a football match at school today, let's go faster."

Ken Miyano's pace couldn't help but become faster. He asked: "When will the football match be held?"

"10 o'clock in the morning."

Ken Miyano couldn't help but stopped and said, "Then why are you so anxious?"

"Hurry up, hurry up," Miku Higashino urged, standing still, "If it's too slow, I'll get anxious."

Ken Miyano sighed and followed: "I really don't understand kids like you."

Higashino Mirai asked in confusion: "Isn't Brother Miyano a child too?"

Ken Miyano was stunned for a while and did not answer. He pointed forward and shouted, "Run forward!"

After saying that, he rushed out in a hurry.

"Oh!" Mirai Tono shouted excitedly and followed.

The entrance to Meguro Elementary School.

"Good morning, Mr. Principal."

"Good morning, little Mirai." Principal Ohta nodded with a smile. He bowed to welcome another child into the school, and then asked, "What are you so happy about?"

"Dad won first place, and..." Higashino Mirai counted his fingers, "It's about the football match!"

In his opinion, these two things are good enough to be compared together.

"Oh, you should be happy then." Principal Ohta touched Miku Tono's little head and pushed his back, "Okay, come in quickly, don't be late."

"Yes, goodbye principal!"

Looking at Higashino Mirai's back, Principal Ohta narrowed his eyes.

"Congratulations, Xiao Xiang, you won the first place in comics."

On the 4th, he was also watching the live broadcast of the Cultural Festival. When he heard that "Slam Dunk" won the first place, he couldn't help but roar with excitement, and his dentures almost flew out.

The student has become famous under his own guidance, and there is nothing more worthy of his happiness.

At 9 o'clock, Principal Ohta returned to the office.

He looked around, carefully closed the door, tiptoed to the office chair and sat down, breathing a long sigh of relief.

"The principal must be a role model for the children." He muttered to himself, then opened the drawer and took out a comic magazine.

The blue-haired boy on the cover is lying on a hospital bed with an infusion on the back of his hand, but he is still drawing comics calmly.

This is "Weekly Shonen Jump", and the comic on the cover of the color page is "Dream Eater".

Principal Ohta was watching.

"But the elderly also have the right to read shounen comics."

He nodded with a smile, opened Jump, and read the first volume of "Dream Eaters".

Akira Mumenha participated in the "Golden Mirai Cup" and won first place with the comic "Suspicious Detective Trap".

With this, they passed the serialization meeting, and "Detective Trap" officially began serialization.

This is a very interesting comic that tells the story of a detective who uses lies to trick criminals into confessing to crime.

Alternative detective comics have gradually attracted readers' attention.

Ajou Mumenha even has the possibility of surpassing the genius Shinzuma Eiji.

But here, the painter Mashiro Takashi collapsed and was hospitalized.

Zhencheng's tallest liver needs to be partially removed, which in layman's terms is a liver explosion.

It was too difficult to serialize while going to school, and he was overwhelmed by the weekly boy jump.

"Xiaoxiang has been serializing it since he was in high school."

After Principal Ohta met Hibiki Hibiki, he searched for Hibiki's life on the Internet.

The ability of the elderly cannot be underestimated. He has indeed checked Hibiki Hibiki's life history thoroughly.

Tori Akino started serializing "Soul of Chess" in the second semester of his sophomore year in high school. In college, he started serializing "Slam Dunk", and he continues to do so now.

"So these are..." Ota's expression was complicated and sad, "Xiao Xiang's real experience."

You can understand how difficult it is for high school students to take care of their studies while drawing comics that are difficult for adults to handle.

"He became what he is today by gritting his teeth and persevering."

If a child tries too hard, adults will feel sorry for him.

Principal Ohta watched "Dream Eaters" with his heart twitching.

Behind the glory is infinite efforts. The more glorious Hibiki Higashino is, the more delighted Principal Ohta is, but the sadder he becomes.

He looked at Mashiro Takashi, who had finally regained consciousness. After briefly asking about his condition, he started drawing comics again.

"Weekly magazines can't take a break. I don't want to take a break. Now I have finally gathered some popularity."

This is what Mashiro said after the doctor refused.

He refused to suspend the publication and begged his companions to bring him the manuscript.

Ota couldn't help but think of Hibiki Higashino. He looked at Mashiro Tall, and Hibiki Hibiki was in his mind.

He stroked the comic, tears dripping from his cloudy eyes.

Don't know when.

"Principal!" Mirai Higashino opened the door to the principal's office and shouted excitedly, "It's time for the football game to start!"

"Oh! Oh!" Principal Ohta hurriedly hid the "Weekly Shōnen Jump". He quietly wiped away his tears, stood up and walked to Tono Mirai, holding his little hand, "Then let's go."

In the corridor, he asked, "Little Future, has your father had a good rest?"

"My dad?" Tono Mirai raised his head, "Of course, he is relaxed. He just watches TV and bask in the sun every day. Damn it, I'm so envious."

"That's good...that's good." Ota nodded happily.

…

On a grassland in Hokkaido.

Nishimura's hair was blown around, and the horse lowered its head, leaving a pile of drool on his head.

"Hey, this is not grass." He glared at the horse dissatisfied.

"Honey," his wife stroked Nishimura's hair, "it's time for you to get a haircut."

"Okay," Nishimura smiled and nodded.

The nearest barber shop was 50 kilometers away. He rode his motorcycle on the vast grassland and arrived in the small town half an hour later.

"Hey Nishimura, long time no see."

"Long time no see, Uncle Baogui."

"What hairstyle do you want this time?"

"Go bald."

"Eh?"

"Just keep it simple."

He has a wife and children, and is past the age of pursuing handsomeness.

Ten minutes later, Nishimura touched the stubble in his hair and walked out of the barber shop.

He was very proud of his maturity.

"At this time, I need a cigarette."

Nishimura took out the cigarette box and found it empty.

So he walked into a supermarket, where a girl cashier was looking at the TV.

Nishimura lowered his head to look for a cigarette and inadvertently glanced up. He unexpectedly saw Hibiki Higashi on the TV, "Huh? Hibiki!"

"What Higashino? This is obviously Tori Akino's future teacher." The girl retorted.

"Yes, yes," Nishimura forgot to buy cigarettes. He responded perfunctorily and asked the store manager, "Is this where?"

On the TV, Hibiki Higashino is wearing a suit, with his black hair combed on top of his head, with only two short hairs hanging down on both sides of his forehead, looking steady and charming.

The girl cashier was fascinated and stared at the TV without blinking.

Nishimura touched his bald head again, and his mood took a turn for the worse.

Compared with the sparkling Hibiki Higashikata, he looks more than ten years older than his peers.

The girl ignored him and replied hastily, "Of course the Agency for Cultural Affairs awards the award."

"The Agency for Cultural Affairs awards an award!" Nishimura asked in surprise, "Another award?"

"Do you also like Mr. Tori Akino?" the girl asked unexpectedly.

"It's a little weird to say I like you," Nishimura scratched the back of his bare head, "but there's nothing wrong with it."

"Tori Akino-sensei's "Slam Dunk" won first place in the manga category of the "Japan Media Arts 100 Awards". This is a live award ceremony. He is so amazing, "Death Note" and "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" are also in the top 10. "

The girl saved the honor for Hibiki Higashino. In fact, "Death Note" was ranked 11th and was snatched away by "Puella Magi Madoka Magica".

"Ah," Nishimura opened his mouth blankly, "Why didn't I know?"

The girl babbled, "The main character in "Dream Eaters" is sick, but Mr. Tori Akino must have had a harder time in reality. He worked hard and forged ahead to win the crown, which is really amazing..."

Nishimura nodded blankly.

…

"I do not know how!"

Dong Yexiang's ears trembled, and he held the phone far away, "Nishimura, what don't you know?"

"Of course it's the 100th choice!" The midday light shone directly on Nishimura's bald head. He didn't care. When he walked out of the supermarket, he called Hibiki Higashino to question him.

"Ah, this." Hibiki Higashi said with a smile, "How is your video host doing?"

He had forgotten about Nishimura. After all, there were so many people around him. Notifying each other one by one would inevitably miss characters who had not shown up for many years.

Nishimura was successfully led astray by Hibiki Higashino. He was extremely proud when he mentioned this, "Of course it was successful. I now have 30,000 fans!"

"Oh! You're great."

"I make 300,000 yen from videos every month."

"Amazing, amazing."

Under Higashino Hibiki's praise, Nishimura was so proud that he forgot about the 100th selection.

"Well, let's talk next time."

He licked his lips and hung up the phone without saying anything.

"Huh? What did I just want to ask? Forget it."

He got on his motorcycle and returned home as fast as lightning.

"Get out of here! When will your hair grow back?"

The gentle wife looked at Nishimura's bald head with dumbfounded eyes, and then became furious.

"Asshole, your hair is also part of me!"

The braised egg husband was so distressing to her.

…

Mashiro Takashi convinced his girlfriend Miho Azu and his partner Akito Takagi to work hard on the original manuscript.

His new wife Eiji came to visit him in the hospital and was relieved to find that Mashiro's tallest eyes were still shining like the hero of the manga.

Mashiro was not defeated, and he quickly returned to the studio to draw comics.

"It's so passionate." Sōma Satoru looked at "Dream Eater", "The cartoonists cherish each other's hearts, and the relationship between rivals and friends is fascinating. I really don't know when I can serialize it..."

Watching "Dream Eaters" made him itchy more and more unbearably.

He entered high school this year, but his level still hasn't reached the level of serialization.

Reality is not about comics. After all, the only cartoonist who can serialize comics in high school is Tori Akino Mirai.

Sōma Satoru has been working very hard, but the harder he works, the more he can feel the gap between himself and the serial manga artist.

This gap is difficult to bridge.

It is impossible for him to serialize in a short period of time.

In the comic "Dream Eater", Mashiro's supreme disease broke out and knocked over the pencil holder on the table.

There was sweat on his forehead and his body was shaking violently.

Mashiro Gao barely controlled his right hand and endured the severe pain. With the help of his girlfriend, he filled in the color draft with a colored pen.

Reading the manga, Sōma Satoru's eyes widened.

“You’re in so much pain, why do you still want to draw comics?”

He felt suffocated.

…

"It's normal." Soma Ichiro smiled and nodded.

“If you devote yourself wholeheartedly to something, you will achieve a level of concentration that ordinary people cannot imagine.”

"The serialization of comics is the result of several years of hard work. After not being resigned to mediocrity and struggling all the time to become a cartoonist, you must not allow accidental influences. It would be the same for me."

Sōma Satoru was shocked by these words.

He originally thought that his determination to become a cartoonist was as determined as his uncle's.

Looking at it now, I am still far behind.

"I'm a paranoid person, you don't need to learn from me, haha."

Ichiro Soma was worried that he had ruined his child, so he quickly asked for help. He said sarcastically, "Well... well, your health comes first."

Afterwards, Sōma Satoru found some information.

For example, Yoshihiro Togashi endured the pain in his back and drew comics while lying on his stomach.

Osamu Tezuka continued to draw comics before he died of illness.

He went through a baptism.
