Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 36 Has Editor Hosokawa Be Dumped?

Higashino Division celebrated a birthday with Higashino Chihaya in a decent manner.

Candles were blown, birthday was sung, cake was cut and dinner was eaten.

Everything is done according to the real birthday.

After all this was over, Higashino Chihaya started playing Snake with his mobile phone in his hand.

When she was playing Snake, she had a habit of tilting and twisting her body along with the Snake in the game, which made Dong Yesi smile a little.

Seeing Higashino's smile, Higashino Chihaya was stunned, then handed over the phone, and asked doubtfully, "Asi, do you want to play? My sister will play for you."

"No. I don't play." Dong Yesi smiled and waved his hands.

The Japanese mobile games in 2003 only included single games such as Snake and Tetris. How can there be more mobile games in the smartphone era in the future?

Higashino Division didn't keep watching Higashino Chihaya, he turned his eyes away, then walked to the place where the landline phone was placed in the shoe cabinet in the entrance and called Hosokawa Koharu.

After all, she hasn't confiscated the second chapter of "Midnight Ring", so it's almost time to notify her.

He took out the phone book, turned the pages with his fingers, found the number of Xiaochun Hosokawa, and then dialed——

Accompanied by the dialing sound of 'beep, beep', Hosokawa Xiaochun over there quickly answered the phone, and at the same time made an excited voice:

"Teacher Higashino? What's the matter? Is it about handing in the manuscript?"

Her words that were so excited that her voice was trembling made Higashinoji feel very inexplicable, but after all, it was a matter of work, so he still replied:

"Well, it's really about delivering the manuscript."

It really is a matter of submission!

Hosokawa Koharu on the other end of the phone waved his fist excitedly.

According to the editor-in-chief Urashima, she originally planned to call Higashino Division in two days to urge him to submit the manuscript.

After all, without the help of a manga assistant, Higashinoji would definitely not be able to hand over a perfect manuscript.

But who knew that Higashino Division couldn't bear it today and took the initiative to call himself.

It must have been difficult to finish the original, so I just called myself.

Hosokawa Koharu inexplicably felt a little comfortable, but at the same time felt normal.

That's right.

Hosokawa Koharu felt that it was normal for Higashino to fail to submit the manuscript.

After all, Higashino has no manga assistant, and he refuses to ask the editor for advice. He just draws manga by himself, so he will naturally be poor.

This is a very normal thing for any comic author serialized in a weekly magazine.

So Hosokawa Koharu didn't intend to laugh at Higashinoji, she just reminded Higashinoji that his attitude should not be so loose - even if the manga assistant's assistance is not needed, the editor's assistance is always needed.

As for the possibility that Higashino Division has finished drawing the original manuscript?

This is just kidding.

It's not that Hosokawa Koharu has little knowledge. Where in the world is there such a manga author who can hand in the manuscript within two days?

The work of most weekly cartoon writers is actually very tiring, and it is not as easy as many people imagine.

So Hosokawa Koharu coughed, followed by a voice:

"Sure enough, Mr. Higashino can't hand in the original manuscript, right? Don't worry, I won't laugh at you. After all, the pressure of serializing in the weekly magazine is very high. As a new author, Mr. Higashino, I should also remind you Yes, that was my editing mistake too"

Good, that's it.

If it won't hurt Dong Yesi's face, but also make him feel a little guilty about himself as an editor!

"So, Mr. Dongye, you don't need to blame yourself. It doesn't matter if you can't hand in the manuscript. If you have any questions, you can ask me. As the editor and you as the author, we can definitely tide over the difficulties together."

Hosokawa Koharu said all the words he was holding back in his heart, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Simply perfect!

It not only took into account Dong Yesi's face, but also didn't let the editor's face be swept away!

But Hosokawa Koharu waited on the phone for a long time but couldn't hear Higashino, so she asked with concern:

"What's the matter? Teacher Dongye? You haven't spoken yet?"

"Uh, actually, I'm calling this time to tell Editor Hosokawa that I've already drawn the original draft of the second chapter of "Midnight Ring", are you free to come and pick it up?"

"Ah, oh, the manuscript of the second chapter has been drawn? It's okay, Higashino-sensei, don't worry if the manuscript of the second chapter is not finished, there is still time to wait?! You have finished the manuscript of the second chapter?!"

Hosokawa Koharu's mind hadn't turned the corner yet, he instinctively said a few words, and then changed his face immediately after realizing it.

what? !

Have you finished the original draft of Chapter [-]? !

what happened to you? !

Hosokawa Koharu opened his mouth halfway, with a suspicious expression on his face.

"What's wrong? Editor Hosokawa?" Higashino Division over there made another sound.

"Ah, uh, it's nothing, Teacher Dongye, I'm just a little surprised that you are drawing too fast."

Hosokawa Koharu replied dryly.

"Really? I think it's okay too. Editor Hosokawa, when do you plan to come over to pick up the manuscript?"

Dong Yesi over there smiled and asked her.

It's not that kind of mocking laugh, it's just a normal laugh, but even so, Hosokawa Xiaoharu's face turned red from being blocked, and he even jumped a little anxiously.

She didn't know why she was in a hurry.

It is obvious that Higashino Division is very competitive as a manga author, and he handed in the manuscript nearly a week in advance, but he is in a hurry.

Maybe it's because Higashino Division is so competitive that she has no sense of existence as an editor, right?

Can't you be useless?

Perhaps this is a kind of human psychology.

It doesn't matter if you are outstanding, but if you are too outstanding, it will make the people around you feel an inexplicable sense of urgency

well! ! !

Hosokawa Koharu sighed heavily, feeling for the first time that even bringing an obedient author can actually make the editor's blood pressure soar.

Nor did she doubt the quality of Higashinoji's manuscript.

After all, to be able to draw such an excellent cartoon of "Midnight Ring", Higashino's professional attitude must be nothing to say, and the original manuscript he drew must be perfect.

But the more this happened, the more depressed she became——

After agreeing with Higashino Division on the time to pick up the manuscript, Hosokawa Koharu hung up the phone in a daze.

"What's wrong? Editor Hosokawa?"

Seeing her like this, an editor next to her said cheerfully, "The urgent data of your "Midnight Ring" has come out this time. The number of readers' praise is the first, but there are a few readers who are dissatisfied. What do you want to see?" Higashino-sensei's comics are a little too expensive for TV."

As he spoke, he added with a sigh:

"Teacher Dongye is really amazing."

"Yes." Hosokawa Koharu stared at the phone dejectedly, with sad eyes, as if wanting to see Higashinoji through the phone: "Yes, he is very powerful, so I am under a lot of pressure now."

"Ah?" The male editor next to him didn't understand what Hosokawa Koharu meant, and he didn't know what to say when he opened his mouth, so he could only watch as Hosokawa Koharu got off work listlessly and left.

looks like

"Who dumped Editor Hosokawa?"

The male editor asked the colleague next to him in a low voice.
