Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 46 Letters and Gifts from Readers

The warehouse of Urashima Publishing House.

The original manuscripts of the serial authors are generally preserved here.

After all, as a comic author, these original manuscripts are valuable to preserve, and from time to time, readers can be given benefits, such as printing the author's setting draft or original painting collection into a book, which is a sum of money.

Except for the author's original manuscript in the series, the rest is the reader's reply, letter from the reader, and gift from the reader after miscellaneous statistics.

What Hosokawa Koharu showed Higashinoji were the letters and gifts sent to him by his readers.

"Originally we were responsible for delivering the letter from the reader and the present to you, Mr. Higashino, but you have also seen it, Mr. Higashino."

Hosokawa Koharu's voice sounded lacking in confidence.

Higashino Division looked in the direction of Hosokawa Koharu, and then saw the gift sent to him by his readers behind her.

It was clearly a TV set.

At a rough glance, there were about a dozen of them, some were smashed, and some were brand new.Several TVs were obviously severely damaged by their owners during their lifetime, and even the entire screen was rammed down, which fully demonstrated how scared the TV owners were.

"This?"

It was also the first time for Higashino Division to meet this battle, and he gave Hosokawa Koharu a strange look.

"This is a letter from a reader, Mr. Dongye, please read it."

Hosokawa Koharu handed over a thick stack of letters from readers to Higashino Division.

This should have been selected. Although it looks thick, it is only a dozen or so letters.

Higashino Division read one by one.

Some of these readers praised his "Midnight Ring" painting as scary and realistic.

This type of reader is the standard diehard fan reader, even if the TV at home is gone, they are still very positive and optimistic.

There are also some who wish to kill Dong Yesi with a knife in order to sacrifice the spirit of their TV in the sky, but at the end of the letter, they still add a sentence very awkwardly, "The painting is really good, I smashed my TV just to watch you This manga, don't let me down'.

Old arrogant.

Among them, quite a few are readers who feel that he draws very well, that is, they are a little TV-eating.

Most of these readers are very rich, and they sent the brand new TVs here, saying, "I am very rich, and I can replace the TV at home if it breaks, so you Step up and draw, no problem' look.

Higashinosi obviously didn't expect this to happen, he glanced at the letters from readers, and then at the TV in front of him, laughing happily.

It seems that he still did not insult the reputation of "Midnight Ring", and really tortured Japanese readers physically and mentally.

Speaking of fans in Japan, this is indeed the case, and their mobility is particularly high. Higashino has heard of a story about a fan who found her address through the reflection in her favorite idol's eyes.

Now it seems that that may not be a rumor.

"Ahem Higashino-sensei, it's another matter to laugh. It's impossible for these TV sets to be kept in the warehouse of Urashima Publishing House all the time. You have to find a way."

Hosokawa Koharu reminded me at the side.

"It's nothing, the worn-out TVs will be disposed of directly, and the new TVs will be drawn as gifts to the readers of the midnight ring. I don't need so many TVs."

Dong Yesi quickly thought of a way.

This is called taking from the people and using it for the people.

He doesn't use TVs at all, he might as well give them back to readers who have already smashed them.

"This is a good idea. I will propose to the editor-in-chief, but there is a TV, Mr. Dongye, you still have to accept it."

Hosokawa Koharu took out a greeting card from his pocket, which is a very common postcard: "This is the author of "Between Dolls", Mr. Kuromiya, who wants me to pass it to you."

"The author of "Between the Dolls"?" Higashino was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered the manga author who removed him from readers with the highest rating last week.

It's him?And the surname Hei Gong sounds familiar.

Higashino took the postcard from Hosokawa Koharu, and there was only one sentence written on it——

'"Midnight Ring" is very good, I hope we can encourage each other. '

This is not like the provocative words left in traditional novels.

Since it was a colleague, and it was a gift from a senior, Higashinosi thought about it and nodded: "I see, then I will accept the gift from Mr. Kurogong."

Now the matter of the reader's reply letter and gift is temporarily settled.

But Hosokawa Koharu should have something to say, he seemed a little hesitant.

"If there is anything else you want to say, please ask Editor Hosokawa to say it directly."

Higashino Division took advantage of the situation and gave Hosokawa Koharu a step down.

"Actually"

Hosokawa Koharu hesitated for a while, and then brought Higashinoji back to the office area, and then pulled out a stack of paper materials from her desk:

"These are the recent evaluations of "Midnight Ring" by some newspapers and magazines outside."

Higashinoji put the letters from readers in his shoulder bag, and then freed his hand to take the materials consisting of newspapers and magazines.

He glanced down.

Hosokawa Koharu didn't hesitate, and simply explained to him: "I didn't deliberately choose these newspapers and magazines, so Mr. Higashino, you can fully trust their objectivity."

As she spoke, she sighed and glanced at Higashinoji.

Hosokawa Koharu sighed, not because these magazines and small newspapers slandered "Midnight Bell", but because they praised "Midnight Bell" too much.

Uncommonly high.

What new stars in the horror comics world, talented comic script writers, realistic and superb drawing skills pull you into that world

In short, how to blow on how to come.

Including the magazine "Chaojin" of Fuji Publishing House, a publishing house that Urashima Publishing House has always been at odds with, all gave five-star reviews and urged everyone to read it.

This made Hosokawa Koharu feel a sense of crisis.

Because for her, this kind of excessive praise is very detrimental to the growth of creators.

And if you think about it further, these magazines and newspapers actually have the intention of killing Higashinoji.

After all, the first episode of "Midnight Ring" is so good, even if they want to find a place to spray it, they can't find it, so they can only praise and kill it-what if the second episode of "Midnight Ring" is mediocre?

Hosokawa Koharu can even imagine that if the quality of the second chapter is not good, how these magazines and newspapers will criticize Higashinoji.

Higashino Division quickly read all the materials, still smiling cheerfully.

What time is this!You are still laughing!Could it be that Higashino Division has not yet understood the seriousness of the problem?

Thinking of this, Hosokawa Koharu asked: "Teacher Higashino, have you understood the current situation?"

"Ah? The situation? Oh, editor Hosokawa, are you referring to the fact that these media deliberately flattered me?"

"That's right, Mr. Higashino, don't you understand?" Hosokawa Koharu looked at Higashino Division's smile in confusion.

They already knew that these people were killing him, and they already knew that others were watching him as a joke.

Why is Higashino still looking cheerful?

"Are you really okay? Teacher Dongye?"

Hosokawa Koharu asked subconsciously.

"It doesn't matter." Higashino still smiled: "My "Midnight Ring" is better than what they boasted, why should I worry?"

As soon as these confident words came out, Hosokawa Koharu was stunned.

Why is Higashino so confident?

But she quickly thought of the quality of the second chapter of Higashinoji's "Midnight Ring".

In an instant, she was relieved again.

Yes.

Mr. Higashino's "Midnight Bell" is even better than these people.

If that's the case, why are you worried about killing people?
