Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 98

Seeing that Konoe Lianghua's mood had stabilized, Higashino gave her a few words of advice.

Most of the content is to ask her to buy some anti-swelling medicine, so that the redness and swelling will not be left until tomorrow.

Konoe Lianghua nodded slightly, and opened his mouth before leaving: "Goodbye, Higashino."

Higashinoji was used to the awkward character of the other party who got stuck in the middle of what he said, and he waved his hand: "Well, I won't be able to see Konoe-san tomorrow."

"Ah?" Konoe Lianghua raised his head.

"You are really pretty. You can actually keep your bangs a little shorter and cover your eyebrows a little bit." Higashinosi smiled and gave his suggestion.

"Really?" Konoe Lianghua's face turned slightly red when he heard it, and the fingers of his right hand unconsciously curled the hair on the sideburns by his ears, and replied hesitantly: "I, I'll try it."

She bowed to Dong Yesi again, and then left.

After watching the other party completely disappear in the park, Higashino took out his phone and glanced at the time on it.

He didn't waste much time, and it was only a little bit early at five o'clock, so he had plenty of time to go to Urashima Publishing House.

Higashino opened his shoulder bag and checked the original manuscript of "The Lonely Gourmet" inside.

Fortunately, the originals were well stored and there was no trace of mess.

Higashino was relieved, and trotted towards the station.

After changing trains and changing stations, Higashino Division quickly came to Chiyoda District with ease and familiarity, and walked to Urashima Publishing House.

"Brother Higashino, are you here to hand in the manuscript again?" Ms. Uzaki, who was in charge of the reception, greeted Higashino Division warmly when she saw him.

"Submitting the manuscript is just incidentally, mainly to see sister Uzaki." Higashino replied with a smile, and then asked: "Then I will go up like this, should it be okay?"

Miss Uzaki was coaxed by Higashino into a cheerful smile, and waved her hand: "Go up, you are all acquaintances, and you don't need to register as a tourist."

Higashino thanked him, and then got on the elevator.

It is still the familiar editorial department, the only difference is that there is a beautiful poster of "Midnight Ring" on the comic wall, and the words "Mr. Higashino's work "Midnight Ring" is being serialized" are written on it.

This colorful poster was drawn by Tsukasa Higashino in his spare time, and it will be used in the booklet after "Midnight Ring", which is a small benefit for readers who buy the booklet.

The Sadako above is not only not scary, but also looks like a Q version with thick hands, thick feet and a big head. She climbed out of the TV and opened her mouth wide facing the TV, with a cute look of baring her teeth and claws.

"It feels pretty good." Dong Yesi nodded with satisfaction in his heart, and after admiring his work twice, he hurried into the editorial office of "Aversion to Chill".

Hosokawa Koharu himself didn't know how he spent the past half month.

While waiting for the news from Higashinoji with great anticipation, at the same time worried that the content drawn by Higashinoji is not interesting enough and will be rejected by the editor-in-chief Urashima and other editors.

This is a very complicated mood, so even if she got a new one, "Midnight Ring" has always been the number one reader's praise rating, and she can't calm down this worry and anticipation.

And with the passage of time day by day, the confidence of "do what you want to be the best in Japan" with Higashinoji has gradually been worn away.

This is like a second-degree illness. At the beginning, I thought it was quite handsome, but later I felt that my behavior was too second-guessed, and I couldn't stand it anymore.

And the most important thing is that there is really no news from Higashino Division.

"What will happen? Is Mr. Higashino really unable to produce a good work?" Hosokawa Koharu bit his thumb and muttered worriedly.

In fact, Higashino Division is already very good. "Midnight Ring" has always been the first in the reader's praise rate, and the number of follow-ups is getting higher and higher.

Wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing for him to ask him to create a brand new comic?

Hosokawa Koharu took a deep breath and finally made a decision.

There has been no news from Dong Yesi, so you can ask him yourself.

Don’t be emotional, keep calm. If Higashino can’t produce results, you should also do your duty as an editor to comfort the other party. At worst, you don’t need the front page of "Green Leaf", as long as Higashino can stabilize your mentality.

Hosokawa Koharu thought a lot, but he didn't stop, and directly called Higashino Division.

After the phone call, Hosokawa Koharu directly revealed his identity: "Hello? Is this Mr. Higashino? I'm Hosokawa."

"It's me." The tone of Higashinosi on the other side of the phone was a bit subtle: "Why are you calling me at this time? Editor Hosokawa?"

He was already outside the editorial department, and just about to open the door to come in, when he received a call from Hosokawa Koharu, he was naturally a little weird.

The timing is too good to be true, right?

But the weird Hosokawa Koharu in his voice didn't mean that.

She felt that Dong Yesi hadn't produced any results in the past half a month, so she felt guilty for no reason when she received her call.

Thinking of this, Hosokawa Koharu finally couldn't help but comfort him:

"Teacher Higashino, in fact, even if you don't produce results, you don't have to feel guilty."

Hosokawa Koharu comforted Higashinoji: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you can't make the front page this time. The results of "Midnight Ring" are enough to make anyone shut up. At worst, we will do it next time."

"Wait a minute, editor Hosokawa." Higashino was puzzled: "Why can't I produce results?"

Why did Hosokawa Koharu suddenly start filling him with chicken soup?

"Hey?" Hearing Higashino's question, Hosokawa Koharu, who had already prepared a big pot of chicken soup for the soul, was stunned, and she argued: "Because, Mr. Higashino, your voice when you answered the phone just now is a bit strange. I thought you were delusional"

"The voice answering the phone? Oh, you mean that." Higashino suddenly realized, "I just walked to the entrance of the editorial department, and then you called me. I think the timing is a bit of a coincidence, so the voice is a bit strange of."

"Have you arrived at the door?" Hosokawa Xiaochun stood up holding the microphone between his hands, and looked towards the door.

Really, Higashino Division was standing by the editorial department at this time, and he was smiling helplessly outside the glass door.

Hosokawa Koharu blushed, knowing that he had made a mistake, so he hurriedly hung up the phone, came outside the editorial department, and greeted Higashino Division.

Then she led Higashino to the discussion room dedicated to editors and authors.

"I came here this time to deliver the original manga serialized in the monthly magazine "Aoba"."

Higashino Division quickly forgot the previous oolong incident and entered the working state.

As he spoke, he took out the original manuscript of "The Lonely Gourmet" and handed it to Xiaochun Hosokawa: "Editor Hosokawa please take a look."

Uh

This straight-to-the-top action stunned Hosokawa Koharu, who was originally worried about whether Higashino Division could deliver the manuscript.

Was it really tricked out by Dong Yesi?New food comics?

I don't know how the quality is

Good food comics should give readers a sense of appetite to eat

I don't know if Higashino can do it.

Hosokawa Koharu shifted his gaze and looked at Higashinoji's new work this time——

The header above is simply:

"The Lonely Gourmet".
