Tokyo life starting with painting

The awkward atmosphere didn't last long.

Higashinoji didn't even remain silent. He just smiled after hearing Chimei Nagawa's words: "That's such a coincidence. I remember that Ms. Kuromiya also graduated from Kitajijuku High School, right? Then we can be considered classmates in the same school. Competition.”

Well

Chimi Nagawa expressed surprise at Higashinoji's too calm attitude.

She opened her mouth and said, "Junior Brother Dongye, don't you have any other ideas? For example, you accidentally pinned your fellow senior sister under you, accidentally grabbed your fellow senior sister's gold reward, and are you sorry for that?"

In response to this, Tonoji just smiled and shook his head. At the same time, he was still a little amused. Why did this little girl just learn a word and use it casually? What about 'pressing senior sister down'?

Isn't this a misunderstanding?

After he laughed, he also replied seriously: "First of all, I want to correct a common sense mistake made by Senior Sister Mingchuan. It is not that I 'accidentally snatched' Senior Sister Kuromiya's gold reward. The gold reward itself is of a competitive nature, and I and Kuromiya There is a competitive relationship between Senior Sister Gong."

Higashinoji looked at Kuromiya Mingsha: "Taking a step back, it is Senior Sister Kuromiya who won the gold reward this time, and I was the one who lost. I will only express my regrets and work harder to win the prize next time. The gold reward is back in the hands of Senior Sister Kuromiya."

"The gold reward includes the favorable rating from readers of "The Cold", which always comes from competition. It's not that I 'accidentally snatched' the gold reward from Senior Sister Kuromiya."

Yes, Chimi Nagawa said that Akisa Kuromiya was robbed of the gold reward by Higashinoji. This is simply childish.

An analogy would be to watch a lollipop being taken away by someone else, and then a child having a tantrum speaks.

To put it bluntly, I haven’t received a beating from society.

In the past, Higashinoji had a friend at work, and the leader took away the results of his group. In the end, the friend could only groan and pinch his nose and endure it.

In this world, there are very few people who can stand up and make money. Higashinoji chose the path of professional painter because he didn't want to encounter such a useless thing.

At this moment, Kuromiya Mingsha, who had remained silent, raised her head and spoke: "Junior brother Higashino is right."

She seemed to be touched by what Higashinoji said just now.

That's right, the gold reward did not come from others' charity. Higashinoji was better than her, so it was natural to get the gold reward.

What she needs to do is to continue to hone herself. Being angry and unwilling is not what she should do.

Kuromiya Mingsha suddenly became enlightened, and the fear in her heart just now dissipated a lot: "I came here this time not to cause trouble for Junior Brother Higashino, but this."

Akisa Kuromiya quietly took out a package of things wrapped in document paper from her large shoulder bag.

She handed it to Higashinoji, her demure and steady face full of seriousness.

"Is this? The original comic book?"

Higashinoji knew what was inside just by weighing it.

After all, he deals with comic manuscript paper every day.

"This is the manga manuscript I used to participate in Urashima Publishing's new monthly magazine "Aoba"."

Akisa Kuromiya looked at Higashinoji seriously: "I want to get the first place in readers' praise in the monthly magazine "Aoba", and then go back to "Abomination" and win the first place in "Abomination"."

Her "Between Dolls" will be completed in two weeks, so it is natural to prepare a new work now.

ah?

Upon hearing this, Higashinoji's expression changed slightly.

To be honest, he suspected that Akisa Kuromiya and him were naturally at odds with each other.

Why did she draw a new manga "The Lonely Gourmet" and prepare it for the monthly magazine "Aoba"? Akisa Kuromiya immediately said that she would also draw a new manga for "Aoba".

This is really a fight between brothers from the same sect.

Higashikata shook his head speechlessly.

"What's wrong?" Nagawa Chimei saw Higashino shaking his head and instinctively felt something was wrong.

"Actually, I also drew new comics."

Higashinoji didn't hide it from Chimi Nagawa and Meisa Kuromiya. He walked to the table and picked up the blackened and dried manuscript.

"You also drew a new comic?" Chimei Nagawa's eyelids twitched, and Akisa Kuromiya's always calm face also showed an incredible expression.

"Well, the new comic is called "The Lonely Gourmet". It is a comic about food. One-third of the first chapter has been completed, and the storyboards for the three subsequent chapters that will be shown to the editor have also been completed."

At the end, Tonoji coughed and added: "It seems that we are competitors again this time, Miss Kuromiya."

Even he was a little embarrassed.

"" Kuromiya Meisa and Nagawa Chimei.

Higashinoji initially said that he didn't mean to snipe him.

Akisa Kuromiya believed it.

But now she couldn't help but cast glances at Higashinoji frequently.

Did he really mean it?

but--

"Junior Higashino, are you preparing to transform this manga into a food manga?" Akisa Kuromiya glanced at the middle-aged man Goro Inokashira in a suit walking on the streets of Tokyo in the original manuscript and couldn't help but ask.

transformation.

This is something that is particularly taboo in the comics industry.

It's like when you write a book at the starting point, you write a novel in a relaxed style at the beginning, and then the next book suddenly changes, killing girls and preaching at every turn, killing decisively at every turn. This change in style will definitely eliminate many previous readers.

For example, Meisa Kuromiya's new comic, which is going to be released in "Aoba", still chooses a horror comic theme.

She wants to gain a foothold in horror comics first, and then challenge Higashino Tsukasa's "Midnight Ring".

As a result, I didn’t expect that Toyesi would immediately start transforming?

This is not something you can do with talent.

"Let me take a look!" Nagawa Chimei leaned over to see Higashinoji's works.

Then Chimi Nagawa looked at it and muttered: "It's quite interesting."

That's right.

Although only one-third of the story is completed, the previous plot of Goro Inokashira dealing with a difficult male customer has come to an end.

Standard Japanese witty black humor.

When I heard the male customer say to Inokashira Goro with a smile on his face: "If it is Mr. Inokashira, he will definitely understand what I am thinking, right? I will leave everything to you to make the decision."

Then Inokashira Goro's face was full of confusion, "What do I understand?" ’ ‘What do I understand? ’ ‘I’m not a superpower’ expression

This extreme contrast is a perfect contrast to the absurdity of real life.

Especially for office workers who are already working, seeing Goro Inokashira's expression on this page will probably resonate a lot.

Higashinoji restored the psychological state of office workers facing the inexplicable demands of Party A through all the details in the comics.

‘Who knows what you think? ’

‘I don’t understand anything! ’

‘I can make up my mind. This is the most difficult request! ’

“So interesting”

Chimi Nagawa put aside the sentence 'very interesting' and replaced it with 'very interesting'.

Yes, this kind of extremely realistic "troubles in life" has been artistically processed by Higashinoji, and the overall plot is particularly witty and humorous, allowing readers to capture different shining points and understanding in ordinary daily plots. A smile.

Why is it so interesting for Higashinoji to draw a food comic that doesn't even show the food?

Chimei Nagawa and Akisa Kuromiya looked at each other.

Suddenly I felt like I had nothing to say.
