Tokyo life starting with painting

Before Hosokawa Koharu could readjust her mentality, Higashino Chihaya giggled again, and then she cautiously approached Hosokawa Koharu and said:

"Actually, I still have a secret that I haven't told Asi. Let me tell you Xiaochun first. You must not tell Asi."

"Secret?" Hosokawa Koharu was attracted by this word, but she quickly turned her head and saw Higashinoji standing by the bedroom door, who had obviously heard Higashino Chihaya's words.

At this time, Higashinoji was smiling and shaking his head at her, signaling Hosokawa Koharu not to reveal what he had heard.

Hosokawa Koharu shut up and turned to look at Higashino Chihaya pretending to be curious: "Is there any secret that Higashino-sensei doesn't know?"

"Hey, this is a surprise I prepared for A Si."

Higashino Chihaya pulled the small basket next to it and showed it to Hosokawa Koharu: "I will only tell you one person now."

Chihaya Higashino's smug expression made Hosokawa Koharu a little interested. She got closer and took a look.

Then froze.

What Chihaya Higashino showed her was a scarf.

Roughly stitched, messy scarf

It's not so much a scarf as it is a ball of wool that is barely spread out.

It was only then that Hosokawa Koharu discovered the back of Higashino Chihaya's hand with a band-aid on it.

I don’t know how hard this stupid sister used such a blunt needle to pierce blood.

Looking at Higashino Chihaya who was still smiling cheerfully, Hosokawa Koharu only felt a little difficult to breathe and her eyes felt a little warm.

She suppressed the throbbing in her heart and forced a smile on her face: "Why a scarf? Isn't autumn coming next month? There's no need to knit a scarf, right?"

"Huh? Autumn has just begun next month?" Higashino Chihaya was stunned immediately when she heard this. She opened her mouth and stamped her feet, with a look of anxiety on her face: "It's over, it's over, I remembered the wrong time."

She looked anxious and about to cry, and Hosokawa Koharu couldn't help but comfort her: "Actually, it's okay. I'll knit a little slower when autumn comes next month, and wait until winter to give it to Mr. Higashino."

"Well" Higashino Chihaya wanted to say something, but she could only lower her head and nodded softly, seemingly helpless.

At this time, Higashikata's surprised voice rang out:

"Editor Hosokawa, I brought the manuscript over, okay? What is this?"

He walked over from behind with a look of confusion. Before Chihaya Higashino could react, he picked up the scarf in the basket and looked at Chihaya Higashino: "Did Sister Chihaya prepare it for me?"

"Ah um." Chihaya Higashino opened her mouth. She suppressed her blush. She didn't expect that she hadn't kept the secret: "It's still only a semi-finished product."

"Really? I'm so happy that the half-finished product looks so good. I didn't expect that Chihaya-san had prepared such a surprise for me."

Higashinoji sighed, and then happily put the cloth-like thing that was not a scarf around his neck, and asked Higashino Chihaya: "Does it look good? Chihaya-san?"

"It looks good! Aji looks good in anything he wears!" Higashino Chihaya nodded vigorously, her face was red, and she looked very happy and excited.

The anxious look just now completely disappeared.

Yes, as long as she heard Touyesi say he was happy, the negative emotions in her heart seemed to dissipate.

Why can Tonoji continue to persevere in this situation?

The answer to this question was finally understood by Hosokawa Koharu after looking at Higashinoji happily stroking Higashino Chihaya's head.

No wonder Teacher Higashino never complains about others

"So that's it."

Hosokawa Koharu sighed softly.

But at the same time, she felt a little embarrassed for no reason. Compared to Higashinoji, her living environment was much better...

But why are the gaps between people so big?

The work of checking the manuscript went as smoothly as ever.

Hosokawa Koharu never seemed to have to worry about Higashinoji's manuscript.

The third episode of "Midnight Ring" is about Reiko Asakawa tracing the cause of Tomoko's death and thus finding the location of the cursed video tape. After getting the video tape at a mountain hotel in Izu Island, Asakawa Reiko put it into the video recorder and started playing it.

The content of the videotape contained eerie images of unknown meaning, and after watching the video, the phone in the room where Reiko Asakawa was staying rang.

The story ends here, and it is also filled with a sense of anticipation and horror.

Especially when looking at the image of the cursed video tape in the manga, Hosokawa Koharu felt as if she had become Reiko Asakawa in the painting.

The surrounding hotel environment is dark. It is still evening, but the sky is strangely dark, giving an ominous atmosphere.

When the content of the videotape started to be shown, Hosokawa Koharu felt an indescribable fear.

It was as if something was staring at him in the dark, as if he would really die in seven days.

"A perfect manuscript." Hosokawa Koharu gritted his teeth, held his breath, and refused to tear the manuscript into pieces.

It’s just that I don’t think I’ll dare to go to the toilet alone tonight.

She shook her head.

"As long as the manuscript is okay." Higashinoji laughed, then stood up and said, "Editor Hosokawa will be eating here tonight, so he can try my cooking skills."

"No need. I'm still in a hurry to hand in the manuscript." Hosokawa Koharu joked with a smile: "The day after tomorrow is the day when the next issue of "Abominable Cold" will be sold, so there can be no further delay."

She stood up, thought about it and called Higashino.

"Teacher Higashino, do you still have time now? There are some things I want to discuss with you alone."

"Huh? Ah, I have time." Higashinoji nodded and followed Hosokawa Koharu out the door, leaving only Higashino Chihaya playing the Snake game on his mobile phone.

outside the door.

"Teacher Higashino, you probably still remember the monthly food comic series you mentioned last time, right?"

Hosokawa Koharu asked Higashinoji after taking a breath.

"Of course I still remember it." Higashinoji smiled: "I have already drawn the draft storyboard, and I will be ready to draw the finished product in two days."

He has indeed drawn the draft storyboard of "The Lonely Gourmet" and there will be no problem in submitting it to Hosokawa Koharu before the middle of next month.

"I will try my best to apply for front page treatment for you from Editor-in-Chief Urashima."

Hosokawa Koharu said without hesitation.

Um?

This change in her attitude caught Higashikata a little unexpectedly.

After all, the front page is already a huge promotional tool for comics.

But you know that Hosokawa Koharu had always opposed him painting "The Lonely Gourmet" before, so why did he apply for the title page position instead?

Not to mention that this is the front page of Urashima Publishing’s new monthly magazine.

In other words, it is the front page of the first issue of this magazine.

This is an achievement worthy of being recorded in the history of Urashima Publishing House! It is truly the first.

That's why Higashikata was a little surprised.

But looking at Hosokawa Koharu's concerned face, Tonoji understood again.

It is estimated that the other party changed his mind temporarily after seeing Higashino Chihaya.

"Teacher Higashino, let's work hard together." Hosokawa Koharu took the initiative to extend his hand.

"Okay." Higashinoji didn't say any unnecessary words of thanks.

He reached out and shook Hosokawa Koharu's hand, his voice steady:

"I'll pick up the next comic."
