A middle school cartoonist

As usual, Hattori Yujiro came to the office early in the morning, but was startled by the pale Yoshida!

Wasn't he very proud yesterday? Why is his expression a little strange today? Could it be that he didn't sign the cartoonist named Houhouin Kyouma? Yujiro looked at Yoshida with three points of sympathy and seven points of regret!

Although Hattori Yujiro has just entered "Shonen Jumk" for less than a year, he is ambitious and has been eyeing the position of editor-in-chief. As for the cartoonist in charge, as a new editor, he has not yet discovered any potential stocks. Therefore, he has always been a little jealous of Yoshida's ability to become the editor-in-chief of Takahashi Makoto! But it's just a little bit. After all, those who choose to enter "Shonen Jumk" are genuinely happy about comics.

"Yoshida, what's wrong with you?" As colleagues, although there are sometimes conflicts and disputes at work, they get along well in private. "Did something happen? Didn't you sign that Fenghuangin... Fenghuangin Kyouma?"

"Ah! Don't mention that damn kid to me! Bastard bastard bastard bastard!" As if stimulated by something, Yoshida suddenly jumped up from his seat, successfully attracted the attention of all colleagues, and roared loudly, "What Takahashi Makoto, what Fenghuangin Kyouma, as his editor-in-charge, it's really unlucky!"

Many colleagues looked at each other, all dragged into a Spartan state by Yoshida's roar, even the editor-in-chief who was always serious was a little stunned, and couldn't figure out what happened.

Well, the cause of everything was that Yoshida, who was full of sympathy, took Takahashi Makoto, who had a pitiful life, to dinner last night out of guilt, and Takahashi Makoto suggested taking a car, so the story happened...

Stop at red lights and go at green lights, this is common sense that every driver knows, and Yoshida would definitely not break the law by running a red light! However, Yoshida never expected that with Takahashi Makoto in the car, driving a vehicle, a seemingly simple task, turned into a survival copy of the Grim Reaper...

Seeing the green light start to flash, Yoshida estimated the distance and subconsciously slowed down the car, but Takahashi Makoto seemed to have no common sense at all. Seeing the green light flash, he actually shouted (Yoshida commented: He deserved it!): "Go, Victory Charge Tornado!"

Yoshida, who was absolutely focused, was startled and stepped on the accelerator reflexively... At this moment, the Akina Mountain God of Cars Takumi followed the call of the great will and temporarily descended on Yoshida. Using superb cornering skills, he forcibly passed through four or five cars, scaring Yoshida into a cold sweat, while Takahashi Makoto complained a little dissatisfiedly: "Tsk, why didn't it fly! At this time, it should fly up and land at a high speed... This is not scientific!"

And then... there was nothing else, the police uncle taught Yoshida a loving lesson! As for Makoto Takahashi, the policeman bought a lollipop to comfort the frightened child!

It's not me who is wrong, it's Makoto Takahashi! Yoshida was shouting and roaring in his heart! But looking at Makoto Takahashi licking the lollipop with a happy face, Yoshida couldn't open his mouth to scold him, so his internal injuries were suppressed!

"Editor-in-chief, maybe there is something I want to tell you!" Yoshida hesitated again and again, but decided to talk to the editor-in-chief about Makoto Takahashi's second-year disease... um, no, it's about Makoto Takahashi's life experience.

"...I already know the situation, so what is your opinion..." After listening to Yoshida's narration, the editor frowned and pushed his glasses (the editor-in-chief did wear glasses, and he was not deliberately imitating Colonel Chu!), "Now you are the editor-in-charge of Makoto Takahashi, I want to hear your opinion!"

"My opinion is..." After hesitating for a moment, Yoshida gritted his teeth and said his decision, "Don't disclose Makoto Takahashi's age! A first-year junior high school student can create comics of this level, which can only show that Makoto Takahashi is a genius! This news may have a good promoting effect on the sales of the magazine, but..."

"But..." The editor-in-chief frowned and did not express any opinion, "Go on, Yoshida, don't worry about anything!"

"Okay, editor-in-chief!" Yoshida took a deep breath, "But I think it is very immoral to do this! A first-year junior high school student who lost his parents not long ago, then Later, he created a classic comic... This gimmick may make "Shonen Jumk" the headline of every newspaper tomorrow and make the magazine sell well, but in this way, a child is hurt! "

"Takahashi Makoto's identity will be exposed one day, and it is impossible to keep it secret! But even so, we can hide it if we can! What we pursue is high-quality comics, not the gimmick of a genius with a pitiful life experience. Children like Takahashi Makoto..." Yoshida paused for a moment, and Takahashi Makoto's neurotic behavior last night emerged in his mind. He couldn't help but sweat and gritted his teeth and continued, "Well... For this kind of "cute" children, perhaps what we adults can do is to build a solid wall for them before they grow up... Although I don't know how much effect it can have, at least, at least it can keep the children's pure world from being eroded and polluted by the adult world! Isn't this what we adults should do?"

"Instead of fixing the frame of the painting in advance, do you want to wait until the painting is completed and then add the frame?" The editor looked at Yoshida who looked excited, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. There was a dim light in the corner of his eyes, let alone the child. The same goes for adults! Maybe I was a little too anxious back then...

"Editor-in-chief, this is what I should do as the editor-in-chief of Makoto Takahashi!" Yoshida looked at the silent editor-in-chief, a little anxious, and quickly said, "If Makoto Takahashi is exposed to the adult world too early... this approach... …This approach is tantamount to killing the goose that lays the egg!”

"Well, calm down, Yoshida. I'm not denying your proposal, it's just that I remembered some things..." The editor looked at Yoshida who was a little anxious, and a rare smile appeared on his cold face, "I'll just follow what you said. Let’s do it...the pen name is..."

"The Phoenix Academy is so ferocious!" Yoshida blurted out almost subconsciously. In his mind, Makoto Takahashi in a white coat appeared in his mind, with his hands on his hips and his face arrogantly shouting to the sky. He couldn't help but add, "Full of madness." Demon!"

"..." The editor-in-chief looked at Yoshida who looked embarrassed, and tried to comfort him, "Yoshida, don't work too hard!"

It was definitely infected by that damn brat! Yoshida looked at the editor-in-chief who was suppressing a smile, with a look of helplessness on his face and an extremely resentful heart! Just when I was about to explain something, my phone suddenly rang. The caller ID was Makoto Takahashi, the source of the crime! (Yoshida has deep resentment!)

"Moxi Moxi, this is Master Jishin of the Phoenix Academy, one of my followers, where are you?" Makoto Takahashi's twitching voice came from the other side of the electric ring, "P1, why haven't you arrived at the designated place yet? , if the battle fails, you have to commit suicide!"

"What is combat? What's going on with P1? Pawn (the pawn in chess) number one?" Yoshida was a little angry, without any of the high-spirited energy just now, "Speaking of Takahashi Makoto, last night I remember and You told me that I’ll get the drawings for the first and second chapters later, so don’t run around for me and just wait at home!”

"It's not important! What's important is... I'm being hunted now!" Makoto Takahashi gasped on the other end of the phone, sounding a little scared, "I witnessed a murder before, and I just took advantage of the murderer's unpreparedness. Run away, now..."

"Nani?" Yoshida pressed the loudspeaker button in a panic, but he didn't pay attention. Instead, he yelled anxiously, "Murder...murder incident! Takahashi Makoto, where are you now?"

"I don't know. I was knocked unconscious before. When I woke up, I found..." Makoto Takahashi hesitated for a long time, his voice even trembled, "I found that I was actually in class in school, and my body turned into a child. …”

Snap!

With a dark face, Yoshida hung up the phone, looked at the snickering colleagues around him without saying a word, snorted, picked up the briefcase on the table, and walked out. Yujiro looked at Yoshida who was walking out with a dark face. He couldn't suppress his smile anymore. He was lying on the table laughing wildly. Thinking about it, the entire editorial department seemed to have a chain and turned into a sea of ​​joy!

"This kid... this kid..." Yoshida, who was walking on the road, was completely blinded by anger, and quickly walked towards Takahashi Makoto's home, "I must let him know that the world of adults... But it’s a very serious world…”

The phone rang again, and he looked at the name displayed on the phone... This time Yoshida took a deep breath, pressed the answer button viciously, suppressed his anger, and asked coldly: "What happened this time?" , Takahashi Makoto? This time, even if you say you became the Pirate King, or found the King's Treasure, or became Sailor Moon, I won't believe it anymore!"

"Uh..." Makoto Takahashi on the other side of the phone seemed to be hit by Yoshida's cannons and fell into a dazed state. After being silent for a long time, he slowly spoke, "My family, where are you going?"

"Where to go?" A dark smile appeared on Yoshida's face, "Of course it's your home, and then get the drawing... By the way, I called your little female classmate before... Well, her name is Ogata Rina, right? ? I asked her to go to your house to cook for you!"

Yoshida, who was waiting for Takahashi Makoto's drawing yesterday, secretly tasted a little of Ogata Rina's dark cuisine while he was free, and seemed to have entered a half-dream state... When he came to his senses, Takahashi Makoto has finished the painting, it is already dark, and the pointer on the wall points to a quarter past nine... You must know that the time when I arrived at Makoto Takahashi's house yesterday was only a little over five o'clock!

"Ah!" When Yoshida said this, Takahashi Makoto over there seemed to be frightened and exclaimed, followed by a long silence. Just when Yoshida was secretly happy, Makoto Takahashi's voice sounded faintly on the phone again, "Do you want to die once? My family belongs to Yoshida!"

"Hahahaha, you are a hundred years too early to scare me, kid!" Yoshida suddenly felt a little nostalgic, remembering that he seemed to scare others in this way back then. Sure enough, Makoto Takahashi was just a child! "You think you can scare me like this? I am a demon from hell!"

"Really? How about this move? Shoot him, sharpshooter!"

Makoto Takahashi's voice rang again, but not on the phone, but behind Yoshida! Before Yoshida had time to react, he felt a huge force coming from behind him, and then his whole body was knocked to the ground...

"My beloved, this move is called [Underworld Waning Moon Break]! Demon God Phoenix Academy Fierce's exclusive special move!" Makoto Takahashi laughed wildly, his white coat fluttering in the wind...
