1983 Past Life Manga King

“Wow, that’s huge. Are you saying these are all Sunny’s graduation gifts?”

“Yeah. Graduation is tomorrow, so it probably won’t arrive on time, but still… it’s amazing.”

The editorial staff clicked their tongues as they looked at the gifts piled up near Jiro’s seat.

These were gifts that started to pile up since yesterday, but at first the reaction was that they were fresh. However, as gifts continued to pile up, most of the editorial staff were astonished.

Of course, there are quite a few cases in which gifts come to the editorial department when their birthdays are revealed among popular writers, but this is the first time I’ve seen so many gifts piled up at once.

However, the editorial department couldn’t just send it to Sunny, so it was piled up for the time being. Because there is an internal policy that the contents must be checked and sent.

In fact, sometimes there are geeks who send strange things inside gifts. Especially in the case of Sunny, she was paying more attention because she is now a girl graduating from high school.

Then, when Jiro entered the editorial department, her staff threw a word at him.

“Captain Akagi, I envy you. Because you are in charge of a teacher who receives a lot of attention from readers.”

“Me too.”

“Isn’t that also the most popular cartoonist for a boy hero?”

Jiro smiled awkwardly at that reaction and nodded her head.

“Yeah. I think Mr. Sunny will be happy, so I feel good.”

“It’s all work, but what’s the joy? If it were me, I would be tired just looking at the piling up of gifts.”

As Yajima jumped in, the other staff looked at him and made an impression.

“Does Team Leader Yajima always say that in a situation like this?”

“Yes. It’s because I’m just jealous of you.”

“I’m envious…don’t do it. But you have to come in moderation to think like that. It’s hard to think like that when you see it piled up like that.”

At those words, everyone’s eyes turned to the piled-up gifts.

Then someone comes into the editorial department with a parcel, says, ‘Akagi-san, this is the parcel.’ He puts the three on the table and goes back again.

The staff who saw it nodded their heads at the same time.

“I will. Gifts are still coming in.”

“It’s getting more and more difficult.”

“Should I consider myself lucky not to receive a gift?”

Then the other team leader who came in said with a smile.

“Everyone under the team leader will remain today and inspect the gifts.”

“Yeah? All of us?”

“Of course.”

At those words, the general staff despaired.

“No, but to check all those things. It looks like they are still coming in.”

“Aren’t the bosses doing it?”

“I will not.”

“It’s too much. Let’s help each other out.”

“Even the team leaders have different jobs.”

Then someone mumbled in a low voice.

“Is there anyone?”

When everyone’s expressions darkened like that, Jiro said to them.

“This is my job, so I will take care of it. So everyone goes home after their personal work is over.”

“Well, it’s also a job.”

“It’s okay. Because this is your job.”

“Are you really okay?”

“Yeah. It’s okay. I can’t bother other employees with this.”

“Well, if you say so.”

When the manager said that, the employees sighed in relief.

That was then.

“Hello everyone?”

Michiko, who came into the editorial department, greeted me and was surprised to see the pile of presents.

“Mom, what is all this?”

At that moment, the eyes of the staff turned to Michiko. And when he made a strange expression, Michiko made a bewildered expression.

“Why, why are you looking at me like that?”

“You, I have something to help you with today. Are you fine?”

Michiko looked surprised at Jiro’s words, then immediately clenched her fists and nodded her head.

“Absolutely. But what happened?”

“this.”

With that said, Michiko tilted her head as she chinked at her present.

“Why is this?”

“This is a graduation gift from Sunny teacher, the readers sent me, so let’s check it with me.”

“Yeah? All of this?”

“okay.”

“Will the two of us hold on?”

“Huh.”

Jiro nodded her head, and Michiko looked around in bewilderment. Then the staff quickly turned away from her and dispersed.

At that moment, Michiko burst into tears.

Then another employee came into the editorial department with a parcel.

“Again, again?”

As Michiko spoke in shock, she gave a puzzled expression to the employee who was coming in with a parcel. Then she immediately approached Jiro and held it out.

“This is a parcel from Korea.”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Ah yes. thank you.”

“… it’s not. thank God.”

When Michiko was relieved, the employee who had handed the parcel tilted his head and went out again, greeting him.

Then Jiro carefully opened the package, and Michiko approached with a curious expression.

“If it’s from Korea, it must be Mr. Sunny’s manuscript, right?”

“I will.”

Saying so, she opened the package and found the manuscript, as expected. As usual, along with the two-pot Machine Gun Jack manuscript, a new manuscript is also displayed.

“uh? is this it? that.”

“That’s it.”

“Megalopolis Cat. Right?”

“uh. That’s right.”

“I thought it would be sent occasionally because it was an irregular series, but Sunny is also very diligent. They said I drew this without help.”

Saying that, he approaches Jiro and glances over her shoulder to look at the manuscript.

This story begins with the eyes of a black cat.

The black cat enters a huge security facility, and slides naturally into the small gap.

Cats are good at navigating through narrow gaps, but this guy seems to be a bit harsh.

And the story of the interior reflected by the cat who went to a place that looked like a giant laboratory.

Thousands of people are lying on the table. And staff in white robes are walking around.

Numerous devices are attached to the bodies of those lying down, and the staff seems to be monitoring their reactions.

Machines attached to people also have devices that appear to monitor heartbeats.

A solid line of light continues to flow sideways on the machine’s monitor.

Probably all dead bodies.

While people were walking around the corpse for a while, a solid line started moving up and down on the monitor attached to one of the corpses.

Perhaps that’s what caused the noise, so the staff gathered around the body.

After a while, people who appeared to be in fairly high positions also appeared. Then, after examining the body for a while, they exchanged strange glances with each other. Then he instructed the staff to do something and left immediately.

It’s like being chased by something.

However, the employees who did not notice their reaction are busy doing the work they are instructed to do.

While typing something into the computer, or examining the surface of a corpse.

They are only excited about the big things, shouting at each other and busily running around the room.

At that time, the atmosphere of the laboratory was filled with heat.

The body, which had not yet moved, suddenly had small convulsions, and the heartbeat began to get stronger.

Everyone is startled by the reaction, but they look leaning on their faces, and then they get busier with their work again.

After a while, the body’s convulsions grew stronger, and strange things began to happen inside the laboratory.

No, even before that, the cat, who had felt a little strange aura, immediately turned his head around the laboratory below and was looking at it.

And soon, one of the employees who felt something stopped working and started to turn his head back and forth.

Other employees also stop working one by one.

It felt strange when the tip of the sleeve swayed.

Papers flutter in the wind.

And the wind started to get stronger little by little.

Papers began to roll across the floor, slowly blurring my vision.

It felt as if a fog had formed inside the room.

Then, fireworks explode from computers and other devices.

Surprised people looked around and looked frightened.

As the wind grew stronger, the bodies of the other corpses began to shake.

It’s not clear if it’s caused by the wind, but anyway, the staff inside tried to get out of this place with a confused look on their faces.

But then all the transparent glass doors are locked.

A few people run to the door, shout and knock hard, but they don’t budge.

Throwing chairs or machines nearby is to no avail.

Meanwhile, a black vortex began to form on the ceiling of the laboratory.

The cat, who was looking at it, curled up and fixed its gaze.

The staff there, too, were distracted by the whirlpool and had a blank expression on their faces.

At that moment, a flashing object descended from the black vortex. And soon it was confirmed that it was a long scythe pointing downwards, and the people were astonished.

And soon, when the face covered in robes began to fall backwards, everyone began to scatter around in surprise.

So the scene ended.

“Ouch! What is this?!”

When Michiko saw the last scene, she screamed in surprise.

Megalopolis in Cat (6)

At Michiko’s reaction, her Jiro was astonished as well and wrote her impression.

“What if I shout so loudly from behind!”

“Ah, me, that…. I’m sorry. I was so surprised.”

“Surprised.”

“Hey, that guy in black is coming down backwards with a big sickle. It’s like coming out of an upside down world. But that’s a death, isn’t it?”

“Looking at the shape of the sickle, it looks like that.”

“Wow, it was the most creepy of Sunny’s work. Look here.”

Having said that, Michiko rolled up her own sleeve and showed it to her Jiro.

Suddenly, Jiro looked into Michiko’s white arms and saw a slightly wrinkled skin in his eyes.

“You’ve grown chicken meat, chicken meat.”

“I remember Samsara was pretty scary in the beginning.”

“I wasn’t there back then. So, there’s no way I’ve ever seen a manuscript like this in person. It’s because Sunny’s drawings are more realistic than before. Besides, there are no lines, so it’s even scarier because I’m more focused on the drawing.”

“I don’t know.”

“It’s because I’m emotionally drained. Aren’t you afraid of horror movies?”

“right.”

Michiko muttered in a low voice at Jiro’s words.

“Oh, I’m scared. Then, do you like melodrama or action movies when we watch it together?”

“What?”

When Jiro asked, Michiko, startled, smiled awkwardly and waved her hand.

“Oh, nothing. By the way, this episode is very different from the last time.”

“Well, except for fear, the bizarre thing seems similar.”

“Ah, that’s how I see it. Um, teacher Sunny, do you have a lot of stories like that in your head? Or maybe there were a lot of things that were accumulated by just drawing pictures in the meantime. Anyway, they seem to be siblings. He also has a sense of story.”

“The Dark Princess is more than half of Sunny’s ideas. I had a talent for storytelling in the first place.”

Jiro’s words surprised Michiko.

“really? So what about the settings hidden in the Dark Princess?”

“It’s almost all Sunny’s idea.”

“Wow, too. genius.”

After saying that, his expression quickly turned pale.

“What is it?”

“Sunny is now showing such genius at the age of graduating from high school, and I want to do something right now.”

Jiro, who saw it, laughed and ranted, wondering if it was ridiculous.

“Stop talking nonsense and move the parcels because the conference room is empty! I am going to finish this manuscript typesetting.”

“Oh! Aren’t you and your seniors together?”

“I have to go to the printing shop after finishing the editorial manuscript typesetting. And I have to go to Korea early tomorrow morning.”

“Sunny, is it your graduation ceremony?”

“okay.”

“I’m going too!”

The twins’ graduation ceremony.

Family, Japanese family, and Japanese acquaintances Kido and Nishida, and editors Jiro and Michiko in charge also visited.

It is quite lively because a lot more people came to the graduation ceremony than in middle school.

I think our twins are probably the most overwhelming among the guests at the graduation ceremony.

Anyway, since it’s a high school girl’s graduation ceremony, there are a lot of kids crying and a lot of kids talking loudly.

Now that they are all adults in front of them, they must be thinking a lot about many things.

Come to think of it, the twins are really adults now.
