This boring world without comics
Chapter 22
Jiang Hao came to the headquarters of Asahi Shimbun in Tokyo with the manuscript.
I heard before that they seem to be establishing a branch in Yokohama, and I hope it will be faster, which will be much more convenient for Jiang Hao.
This is the second time for Jiang Hao to come to the headquarters of Asahi Shimbun. He arrived at the office of the literature and art section on the seventh floor with ease.
It is different from last time. Now it has been renovated. It should be renovated by a special designer. Compared with the normal dead office building, the color of the office in the literature and art sector is more vivid and rich.
On the opposite side of the elevator, the wall that the visitors can see at first sight is covered with various big-character posters. Jiang Hao immediately saw the big-character posters of Spirited Away and the name of Hayao Miyazaki. on top.
Really very good.
Continuing to walk inside, it looks like a living room, and the few chairs are full of people.
When Jiang Hao walked in, they all looked over in unison, with scrutiny in their eyes.
Jiang Hao understands, these people should also come to contribute, right?
Jiang Hao didn't feel embarrassed or unhappy because he was hostile. On the contrary, he is really very, very relieved now!
Doesn’t the so-called renaissance of the comics industry just need such a group of young people who are brave enough to create?
When comics become popular in this world, more and more people are willing to present their unique ideas through comics. This is the first step in the revival of comics!
If there are really good stories among the people here, Jiang Hao is very willing to voluntarily give up this opportunity to contribute and give them the opportunity to serialize.
After a while, Terugi Kyoko appeared.
She glanced around, and said: "There are so many people... What can I do... If you choose one by one, you won't have enough time..."
I saw Kyoko Teraki discussing with her assistants in a low voice, then raised her head and said to everyone: "Everyone come with me to the meeting room, and show everyone what you brought. "
As soon as Teraki Kyoko finished speaking, all the people in the living room became restless.
"Could it be...to release it in front of everyone? Don't..."
"Honestly if that's the case I'm a little scared..."
"It's so embarrassing...wouldn't everyone be talking behind their backs?"
"......"
Teraki Kyoko was not happy to hear such feedback.
"If you want to continue applying for submissions, follow me to the meeting room, and you can leave if you don't want to."
After speaking, she followed the assistant out of the living room.
While everyone was still looking around, Jiang Hao followed without thinking about it.
There is no hesitation at all. Now that I have decided to take the road of serialization, I will definitely hear various voices, and this cannot be changed.
Everyone saw that someone had already followed, and the rest also followed.
Almost half of the people in the room chose to stay.
****
in the conference room.
Teraki Kyoko put the projector in place, and she and the team sat at the back of everyone.
"Okay, after you go up, introduce the title of your work, the general content of the story, the goal is to finish as many chapters, and how many chapters you have prepared now. Whoever is ready can go up by yourself."
"......"
It was quiet.
Just... who dares to be the first? !
What if the people behind are better than your own and your own is forgotten?
Everyone has their own calculations in their hearts, and no one wants to suffer.
At this time, it was still Jiang Hao who took the initiative to stand up.
"I'll come first."
Teraki Kyoko expressed appreciation for the person who dared to go up first, but when she looked up, she found that this person turned out to be Jiang Hao.
"You....Aren't you the assistant of Hayao Miyazaki? Could it be that Hayao Miyazaki has a new work?" Kyoko Terugi was undoubtedly pleasantly surprised and surprised when she saw Jiang Hao again.
If Mr. Hayao Miyazaki is willing to publish another work, then the biggest problem they are facing in the literature and art sector now will be solved!
Other contributors also had different opinions after hearing Teraki Kyoko's words. Some were surprised and some were worried.
Who would have thought that Hayao Miyazaki's assistant would also appear?The people present are all those who have read Spirited Away's serial comics, and they have all been inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's teacher to some extent. No one here may have thought that they would actually want to talk to Mr. Miyazaki. to compete for the same serial slot.
"No way... Mr. Miyazaki Hayao even sent someone here... I suddenly seem to be going home..."
"In fact, I am willing to give up automatically...Although I really hope to see my work be serialized, but in fact, I am more looking forward to Mr. Miyazaki's new work."
"No wonder, this person dared to be the first to follow in the living room just now. It turns out that he is the assistant of a famous teacher, so it makes sense. Being famous is a great thing, even an assistant is arrogant."
All kinds of voices around him made Jiang Hao feel very embarrassed... Although the current situation has appeared in his mind many times, and it will definitely happen again in the future, it is inevitable that he will feel embarrassed .
"No, no... I didn't come here this time as the assistant of Mr. Hayao Miyazaki. I came here as the assistant of another teacher to help submit the manuscript." Jiang Hao quickly explained in order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
After his words came out, naturally some people were happy and some were sad.
The ones who are happy must be all the people present who want to compete for the serialization slot together, and the ones who are worried are naturally the editor-in-chief of the literature and art section, Kyoko Terugi.
The smile on Teraki Kyoko's face froze instantly after hearing Jiang Hao's words, but after all, she also knew Jiang Hao, and she also specially got instructions from that adult to take care of him, so naturally she would not make Jiang Hao too embarrassed .
"It's okay, then you can start the introduction when you are ready."
Jiang Hao came to the front of the conference room with the materials he had prepared.
[Master, don't be nervous, relax, you will be fine! ]
Hanhan's system's encouragement made Jiang Hao feel a little better, but nervousness was still unavoidable.
Because this time he came here as an assistant to Mr. Wu Toge Hu Shiqing, he had to forget all the achievements made by Spirited Away and introduce him as a newbie.In order to better let the editor-in-chief of the literature and art section understand, Jiang Hao also specially made a ppt.
In the middle of the first ppt is the logo of Demon Slayer: Blade, and below it is the signature of the author Wutoge Hu Shiqing.
Take a deep breath....take a deep breath....it'll be fine!
"Hello editor-in-chief, hello staff, and everyone here. I'm Jiang Hao, and I'm the assistant of Mr. Wutoge Shiqing, the creator of the work I'm going to introduce next. Teacher Shiqing is unable to come here in person due to some personal reasons, so please let me introduce the work "Ghost Slayer: Blade" for her. Please give me your advice." Jiang Hao finally came to everyone present A standard ninety-degree bow.
Out of politeness, the people sitting below had to give Jiang Hao some applause even if they didn't want to.
Teraki Kyoko really has a lot of questions in her heart. Why did Jiang Hao, who was clearly the assistant of Mr. Miyazaki Hayao, now become the assistant of Mr. Wutoge Hushiqing?It's really strange.......
"At the beginning of the story, when the protagonist Tomon Tanjiro went out to sell charcoal, his family of four were killed by evil spirits, but his sister Nezuko turned into a cannibal evil spirit inexplicably. In order to restore the younger sister to a human, the protagonist found out The murderer who killed the whole family became a member of the Demon Slayer Squad. The protagonist Tanjiro and his younger sister Nezuko are shown in the screen.”
Jiang Hao pressed the button of the remote control in his hand, and the ppt came to the second page.
The second page is a colorful illustration of the protagonist Tomon Tanjiro protecting his sister Nezuko who has turned into a ghost with one hand and holding a sword in the other. It is the cover of the first volume of the manga published in Modern Demon Slayer: Blade.
Teraki Kyoko was not that interested when she heard the summary of the story, but now she is interested again after seeing the pictures.
Although it is a very simple picture, and the degree of refinement is definitely not top-notch, the character design and the use of colors are really eye-catching.
The other submission competitors here are also secretly comparing.
Jiang Hao stayed on the second page of the ppt for a short while, so that everyone could see it clearly, and then turned to the next page.
The third page is a few cartoons of the first chapter. Whether it is the storyboard or the rendering of the atmosphere, it shows the care and skills of Mr. Wutoge Hu Shiqing everywhere.
While flipping through the pages of ptt, Jiang Hao explained the content of the story and the characters that appeared in accordance with the comics.
Whether it's the protagonist Tanjiro's tragic experience in the human world, or the appearance of his sister Nezuko turned into a ghost, or the character who just appeared on the scene holding a tadao engraved with "Evil Ghost Slayer" in his hand... everything It makes people instantly enter the world in the story, and can't help but wonder what happened behind.
Teraki Kyoko herself maintains an attitude of neither boasting nor derogatory towards this work.
The explosion of Spirited Away is indeed unexpected by many people, but the background of the story is actually more modern, and there is also a hot spring culture familiar to Neon people. I don’t know if this sense of introduction is a mistake. Whether the collision was intentional by Mr. Hayao Miyazaki, both created a stable foundation for Spirited Away's popularity.
But she is not sure about the Demon Slayer Blade in front of her...
Are modern people really still interested in stories that developed during the Taisho period?
This is something Teraki Kyoko cannot be sure of.
But it is undeniable that the content of the first chapter really attracted her.
This is the end of Jiang Hao’s introduction to his works, and the next step is to answer some questions and so on.
Teraki Kyoko asked: "How long is this manga in total?"
"Teacher Hu Shiqing said that there should be nearly two hundred words." Jiang Hao replied.
"Submit all the manuscripts you have now, and I will reply to you after a while if you can serialize them." Teraki Kyoko said.
The first chapter is indeed good, but who can guarantee whether the rest will be good?At least it has to be played stably until dozens of episodes.
"Ok."
Jiang Hao's introduction ended here, he handed his manuscript to Teraki Kyoko, and returned to his seat.
The people around were all discussing Jiang Hao's performance just now.
"Looking at what other people say, I'm really getting less and less confident... As expected, I should have gone home just now..."
"I thought it would be easy to submit a manuscript now, but I didn't expect to meet another great god...Why have I never heard of the name Wutoge Hu Shiqing?"
"I am me too."
Teraki Kyoko listened to the discussions around her.
It's not just that you haven't heard of it, even she hasn't heard of it, okay?
But speaking of it, what is the origin of this Jiang Hao?How do you work as an assistant everywhere?And they are all the kind of god-level creators who have never heard of it... From a certain point of view, he is also very powerful...
...
.......
The rest of the audience took turns to recommend and introduce their own works.
Starting with Jiang Hao's work, Ghost Slayer: Blade of My Toge Hu Shiqing, the various staff members of the literature and art sector still have great hopes for the people behind.
However, sometimes, hope is often only hope...
When everyone's submitted works are displayed, the entire art department really just wants to quickly turn back the time to the first person introduced, and let them wash their eyes!
——What kind of demons and ghosts are these? !
Very embarrassing, really embarrassing!
The picture is a mess, and even the basic human body structure is not clear.
Eight out of ten people are all about traveling through different worlds, half of the eight people are about bathing, and half are about soup houses.
If it's not to maintain the image, they really want to say that you just write Spirited Away's name on it, wouldn't it be fine? !
It's really scary!
There are some techniques with stories but no painting, and some techniques with no stories. …
From this point of view, it seems that the first work that appeared on the stage is really the pinnacle.
Good guy....straight down a good guy...
They thought this was the beginning of the manga, but they didn't expect that the first one would still be the peak of appearance.
Teraki Kyoko tried her best to maintain her facial expression, and sent away all the people who came to contribute.
Jiang Hao is also about to leave, he just wants to go back to sleep now.
After a long period of continuous blasting, and the presentation of the speech with high concentration and tension just now, he now feels that he can fall asleep standing up!
"Please wait a moment," Terugi Kyoko called to stop Jiang Hao.
"Is there a problem?"
"We will discuss about the serialization as soon as possible and give you an answer. I hope you can help us say a few good words in front of Mr. Wutoge Hu Shiqing, and let them choose to serialize in the literature and art section of our Asahi Shimbun." Teraki Kyoko did this to leave good seedlings.
Everyone has seen the weird things just now. It is actually obvious who will get the serialization position after Spirited Away, but if they like such a good thing, others must also like it.
Since the Spirited Away fire, other companies, such as magazine companies and other news companies, also want to get a share of the pie, so we have to be vigilant.
Jiang Hao also knew it in his heart: "Understood, I look forward to your good news."
In fact, Jiang Hao already felt in his heart that the serialization position this time should be almost inseparable.
To be happy is to be happy. It can be seen that Jiang Hao really couldn't be happy after seeing those people who competed with him for the serialization position just now.
——The manga revival work in this world is far from over!
...
......
Jiang Hao really wanted to find a random hotel in Tokyo to sleep for a day, he was really tired, but after thinking about it, he would pay for Spirited Away to make colorful physical comic books, so he went silent again. Dispelled the idea.
Saving money and saving money, life has indeed improved, but now he is still far from the time when he can spend money freely.
Jiang Hao went to Tokyo early in the morning, and it was only afternoon when he returned to Yokohama after finishing his work.
This is not the time for students and office workers to leave get out of class or get off work, and there are not too many people on the street.
Jiang Hao was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. Apart from going home to sleep, he didn't have any other things in his mind.
When he was passing by the alley, a dark figure followed behind stealthily.Holding something like a handkerchief in his hand, he walked forward quickly and covered Jiang Hao's mouth and nose with the handkerchief from behind.
Jiang Hao thought about struggling, but the effect of the medicine took place very quickly, and he was fainted in a short while.
At the last moment before coma, Jiang Hao only hated himself for working too hard, why didn't he give some time to the supernatural ability.
Damn...
The society is very simple, but what is complicated is... people!
****
Jiang Hao didn't know how long he had been in a coma. When he regained consciousness, he felt weak all over his body and his throat was dry.
He tried to activate the supernatural power, but failed, indicating that the cooling time had not passed.
Damn... what's going on? !
Jiang Hao found that his hands and feet were tied to the chair, and the surroundings were so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.
I didn't expect... It's really strange that he was kidnapped for the first time in his 20 years of life in a different world.
He doesn't know what the person who kidnapped him wants. He has no money, no sex, and no family background. Is there any benefit in kidnapping him?
Jiang Hao can swear that he has never done anything bad.
"Silly system, can you hear me?" Jiang Hao tried to communicate with the system.
[Owner!Master, it's great that you're still alive, woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!I almost thought you were going to die, and I was ready to cry for you, although I didn't cry, but... woo woo woo, it's great that you are alive! ]
The funny voice of the Hanhan system sounded in his head, which made Jiang Hao feel a little bit of peace of mind.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the only person he could turn to for help was Hanhan System.
Jiang Hao lowered his voice and tried to use the smallest voice to communicate with Hanhan's system: "Hanhan, can you forcefully activate my supernatural ability to let me leave here? It's like when I encountered danger on the first day I first came to this world Like that."
Jiang Hao lives alone, and there are no neighbors around. It is impossible for anyone to find that he is missing or has not returned home. Only the Hanhan system can save him.
[Master.....I can't ah woo woo woo!In fact, according to the regulations, I can't force you to activate the master's supernatural ability at all... But you see, our relationship is so good that it's okay to activate it.But the problem now is that the supernatural ability itself has entered the cooling down period, even I can't force it to complete the cooling down immediately......]
After listening to Hanhan's system explanation, Jiang Hao decisively chose to accept the reality: "Now we can only delay the time as much as possible. Once the cooldown is over, I will see who can catch me!"
As soon as Jiang Hao finished speaking, the door was kicked open from the outside.
The light from outside came in suddenly, very dazzling, Jiang Hao subconsciously closed his eyes tightly.
"Yo, Jiang Haojun, long time no see, it's great to see you alive and kicking!"
Jiang Hao hasn't opened his eyes yet, but he is very sure that he recognizes this voice!
"You are--"
Letting his eyes adapt to the bright light, Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes, and the person standing in front of him turned out to be the editor-in-chief of the Sakura Daily!
"Editor? Why are you—"
Snapped--
With a clear applause, Jiang Hao only felt a buzzing in his brain, followed by a burning pain on his face.
The editor-in-chief slapped Jiang Hao's face hard with the back of his hand with the ring, and the ring left a shallow scratch on Jiang Hao's skin.
"It's really thanks to you, I'm like a dead dog now!" The editor-in-chief grabbed Jiang Hao's hair and made him look up at himself, "I really didn't take you seriously at first , I didn’t expect it, I didn’t expect it.... You actually have something to do with the candidate for a cadre of the Port Mafia, I really underestimated you.”
Jiang Hao didn't know if he was beaten stupid just now, or because his IQ was not online, why didn't he understand a sentence?
"I....I don't know what the port mafia is, and I don't know any cadre candidates. Is there some misunderstanding between us?" Jiang Hao tried his best to communicate with the editor-in-chief in a calm tone, knowing in his heart that the communication should have no effect , but as long as he can delay the time, he can save himself by the end of the cooling time of the ability.
And the main thing is that he really doesn't know any candidates for the port mafia's cadres!
The editor-in-chief's face was full of hatred, obviously he didn't believe a single word Jiang Hao said.
"If it's not you, it's Hayao Miyazaki behind you. Otherwise they wouldn't have kicked me out of the newspaper after I stopped serializing your stuff!"
At that time, Spirited Away was serialized in the Sakura Daily, and the response was very good, and the sales volume was also increasing day by day.As the editor-in-chief, he naturally wanted to retain such a labor force who could lay golden eggs, so he thought of using a contract to tie Hayao Miyazaki.
As a result, this Hayao Miyazaki never appeared from the beginning to the end, and no matter what the details were, he had to hand over to his assistant, a man named Jiang Hao.This is nothing, as long as the contract is signed, they will honestly serialize it in the Sakura Daily.Who knew that they would actually play the game of disappearance, no matter how they contacted them to ask about the signing of the contract, they would just practice Tai Chi without saying anything. In the end, the assistant named Jiang Hao turned off the phone directly.
It's nothing, he has worked in Sakura Daily for so many years, he must know what to do next, so he stopped the serialization of Spirited Away, and also blocked Jiang Hao's phone number, so he had to come in person Look for him in the Sakura Newspaper.
At that time, he can lower the cost of serialization, after all, they were the ones who didn't know how to praise.
However, not only did they not come, but his own life was also ruined...
Not long after, Spirited Away started serializing again in the Asahi Shimbun!Not only that, the port mafia terminated its cooperation with the Sakura Newspaper, and so did their gangsters.
The top was very angry and kicked him out as the editor-in-chief.
'It's all stupid things you did, offended someone who shouldn't be offended, get out of here! '
The words of the boss are still lingering in his mind.
In Yokohama, offending the port mafia is almost like committing suicide.He could no longer find any decent job, and the originally complete family was full of quarrels because of no income.He thought about leaving Yokohama, but there were many difficulties whether it was moving or applying for documents, as if an invisible hand was pulling him.
It's them from the port mafia....it must be them!
But what puzzled him was why...why he just ordered to stop serializing a work as the editor-in-chief!Why are things the way they are?
This question kept bothering him until he found a photo online.
One of the people in the photo is Hayao Miyazaki's assistant Jiang Hao. He didn't intend to pay more attention to it, but he saw another person in the photo.In the photo, another person didn't show his whole face. The editor-in-chief thought it looked familiar at first, but after a closer look, he found that this person was Osamu Dazai, a candidate for the cadre of the port mafia!
It turned out to be like this...it turned out to be like this...
He got it all!
He understood why he was suddenly put into this situation just by doing the same thing as usual. It was all because of him... just because of this person!
...
.......
Jiang Hao understood, the editor-in-chief thought it was because he refused to let Spirited Away continue to be serialized, that's why he was so annoyed.
"It's an acquaintance no matter what, I still hope you calm down and think about it, don't make the same mistake again and again." Jiang Hao really felt that he was wronged, "I don't know any candidate for the cadre of the port mafia, Dazai Jun is just a minor child. Besides, forcing the contributors to sign the Overlord Clause is your fault first, and everyone has the right to choose whether to stay or not."
The reason why Jiang Hao called it the Overlord Clause is because those who did not complete the specified KPI during the contract period or those who want to break the contract must pay an astronomical amount of breach of contract, and the contributions of both parties are not directly proportional.
But it was obvious that the editor-in-chief couldn't listen to anything now.
"Hahahaha! Do you think I'm stupid?! If it weren't for your shady relationship with Osamu Dazai, would the port mafia treat me like this because of this?!" The editor-in-chief took out a mobile phone from his body, and that was Jiang Hao's cell phone, "You already have Osamu Dazai's phone number, and you still say that you are fine?"
Jiang Hao really felt that the person in front of him was completely unreasonable: "We just met that day, and isn't exchanging phone numbers a common thing between friends?"
"Hahahaha, you are indeed friends, yes, friends in bed, do you count?"
"Keep your mouth clean, only a dirty mind like you would see everything as dirty!" Jiang Hao never imagined that there would be such a rascal in the anime world that all Two-dimensional fans yearn for.
The editor-in-chief was clearly insane. He unlocked Jiang Hao's phone and found Osamu Dazai's phone number: "Your words are really nice, so let's call and try."
"Why should others be involved in the matter between us?"
"Obviously you're just a slut for power and status, and you still say it so beautifully, stop acting, your pretty face won't work for me!"
Jiang Hao felt that his blood pressure was about to rise from the anger.
The relationship between him and Osamu Dazai is like that of pancake fruit?What else could it be?
The editor-in-chief called Dazai Osamu in front of Jiang Hao.
****
Port Mafia Building, Chief Office.
Today it is rare that Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuya get together to report to Mori Omi at the same time.
In the middle of the conversation, Osamu Dazai's cell phone rang suddenly.
"I'm sorry." Osamu Dazai expressed his apology for the phone's voice interrupting the conversation. He took out the phone and looked at the caller ID on it.
It was actually Jiang Hao?
Although they exchanged mobile phone numbers, they really had no contact at all.
Osamu Dazai was stunned for a while, and this small move was caught by Mori Ogai: "What's the matter Dazai-kun? Is there any problem?"
Osamu Dazai thought about whether to tell the boss, after all, the relationship is quite complicated......
In the end, Osamu Dazai chose not to reply to the boss, and connected the phone: "I am Dazai——"
"Osamu Dazai, you don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that your people are in my hands now, if you don't do what I say, I will let everyone's heads fall to the ground!"
Osamu Dazai's brain was running fast, and he asked in a flat tone: "What do you want?"
"Hahahaha! Unexpectedly, the candidate for the cadre of the port mafia is actually a love interest. It seems that he has served you well."
The obscenities on the phone spread throughout the office, even Chuya Nakahara next to him and Ogai Mori sitting on the desk could hear them clearly without using the speakerphone.
"Tell me your conditions." Osamu Dazai responded calmly.
"Okay! Happy people! I want [-] million cash, and it will be delivered to the xxx terminal in two hours! I will pay the money and the person, and I will not make life difficult for you. Your time is running out, so get ready to go!"
"Wait," Osamu Dazai asked before the man hung up the phone, "How do I make sure he's still alive?"
"Oh, that's easy, you wait—"
The voice on the other end of the phone disappeared for a while, and then I heard the voice of the man talking to someone else.
"Hey, hurry up and tell him to come save you... You bitch, I'll let you talk!"
There were some slapping sounds from the receiver, and a very small gasp, as if enduring pain.
Osamu Dazai said: "I know, I am preparing now, and you are not allowed to hurt him."
"Don't worry, I promise you will see a living one."
"beep--"
The person on the other end of the phone hung up the phone immediately after finishing speaking.
"........."
****
The editor-in-chief hung up the phone and kicked Jiang Hao who was tied to the chair.
"The mouth is very hard, and you don't say a word."
A trace of blood dripped from the corner of Jiang Hao's mouth, and he could feel the fishy sweetness in his throat.
The editor-in-chief asked him to call for help on the phone just now, but he was beaten several times when he refused.
It really hurts!
Jiang Hao was taught to be a kind person since he was a child, this is the first time he has a feeling of 'it would be nice if this person could die'......
To ask for [-] million... is really a big mouth for a lion!Dazai-kun is a minor, where did he get [-] million? !
And what kind of cash is needed... It takes a while for the bank to count the money, right?It really has lost even basic common sense.
[Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...]
Jiang Hao could hear a hint of crying from Hanhan System's words, it's a pity that he can't be born to comfort it now.
It's okay...just bear it a little longer...
Although face slapping hurts a bit and may disfigure your appearance, it's okay... Now that the technology of plastic surgery is so advanced, you don't have to worry about losing your appearance.
Jiang Hao comforted himself in his heart, and it was considered a pleasure to have a hard time.
Fortunately, the editor-in-chief said that he would get the money in two hours, which was considered to have won him two hours.
The Hanhan system seems to know what Jiang Hao is thinking.
[Master, come on!There are only ten hours left until the cooldown ends! ]
Ten hours...it's really a lot...
Jiang Hao closed his eyes, trying to recharge his energy.
If he stays here for ten hours, even if he doesn't die, he will be disabled. He has to wait for a while and find a way to run away by himself when the editor-in-chief is going to rest and go to sleep.
What a guy...Jiang Hao felt that after going through this time, he really grew up...Next time he will definitely not step out of the house during the cooldown time of the special ability!
****
call ended.
Nakahara Chuya asked, "Hey Dazai, what's going on?"
Osamu Dazai sighed silently: "It's really too troublesome to explain, you should listen to it yourself."
Osamu Dazai repeated what was on the phone just now.
Zhongyuan Zhong also heard it in a cloud, but Mori Ogai knew it.
When he heard the gasps from behind, the smile on Mori Ogai's face unconsciously widened a bit.
He was most familiar with this voice, Jiang Hao's voice.
Looking at Boss' expression, Dazai knew that he was waiting for him to explain the matter between himself and Jiang Hao. Dazai said that he met Jiang Hao when he was running errands for Boss that day, and the two of them went to the coffee shop to drink tea. We chatted and eventually exchanged phone numbers.
Osamu Dazai said: "When I was in the coffee shop that day, I knew someone was taking a sneak shot, but that person didn't have any malice on him, and the video of Jiang Haojun drawing pictures in a park in Tokyo unexpectedly became popular. I thought I was a fan of Jiang Haojun, so I didn't pay too much attention to it, I didn't expect such a thing to happen."
Mori Ogai nodded after listening to Osamu Dazai's explanation. Although he still looked at him with a little dissatisfaction, he didn't care about these things for the time being.
"Jiang Haojun was my benefactor at the time, no matter what the reason or relationship, this kindness must be repaid."
Mori Ogai gave the reason in a high-sounding way, but in fact, he just wanted to save people.
Osamu Dazai said that as an excellent subordinate, he must see through without telling the truth.
"Let's go, Chuya, let's go get ready." Osamu Dazai didn't forget to bring Chuya Nakahara with him before he went out, "The words of the Boss... well, in fact, just me and Chuya are enough, but It doesn't really matter if you think about it."
It's just a bit of a fuss.....
Zhongya Zhongya now only knows that the kidnapped person was the savior of the Boss back then, and now that the other party is in danger, they are loyal black hands, but they are definitely going to rescue him.
Osamu Dazai sighed silently, anyway, he can almost guess when it will happen later...
When Mori Ogai was alone in the room, he took out his own phone.
In fact, there is a person named Jiang Hao in the address book.
Jiang Hao's phone number was known to him when he was still in the forest hut. He didn't want to take anything with him before he left, but he seemed to have saved this phone number in the end.
The replay of the voice on Dazai Osamu's cell phone just now, and Jiang Hao's gasping for enduring pain kept repeating in his mind.
Why?Why was he beaten without saying a word, and refused to call for help?
Are you stupid, or are you stupid......
Black with the port
I heard before that they seem to be establishing a branch in Yokohama, and I hope it will be faster, which will be much more convenient for Jiang Hao.
This is the second time for Jiang Hao to come to the headquarters of Asahi Shimbun. He arrived at the office of the literature and art section on the seventh floor with ease.
It is different from last time. Now it has been renovated. It should be renovated by a special designer. Compared with the normal dead office building, the color of the office in the literature and art sector is more vivid and rich.
On the opposite side of the elevator, the wall that the visitors can see at first sight is covered with various big-character posters. Jiang Hao immediately saw the big-character posters of Spirited Away and the name of Hayao Miyazaki. on top.
Really very good.
Continuing to walk inside, it looks like a living room, and the few chairs are full of people.
When Jiang Hao walked in, they all looked over in unison, with scrutiny in their eyes.
Jiang Hao understands, these people should also come to contribute, right?
Jiang Hao didn't feel embarrassed or unhappy because he was hostile. On the contrary, he is really very, very relieved now!
Doesn’t the so-called renaissance of the comics industry just need such a group of young people who are brave enough to create?
When comics become popular in this world, more and more people are willing to present their unique ideas through comics. This is the first step in the revival of comics!
If there are really good stories among the people here, Jiang Hao is very willing to voluntarily give up this opportunity to contribute and give them the opportunity to serialize.
After a while, Terugi Kyoko appeared.
She glanced around, and said: "There are so many people... What can I do... If you choose one by one, you won't have enough time..."
I saw Kyoko Teraki discussing with her assistants in a low voice, then raised her head and said to everyone: "Everyone come with me to the meeting room, and show everyone what you brought. "
As soon as Teraki Kyoko finished speaking, all the people in the living room became restless.
"Could it be...to release it in front of everyone? Don't..."
"Honestly if that's the case I'm a little scared..."
"It's so embarrassing...wouldn't everyone be talking behind their backs?"
"......"
Teraki Kyoko was not happy to hear such feedback.
"If you want to continue applying for submissions, follow me to the meeting room, and you can leave if you don't want to."
After speaking, she followed the assistant out of the living room.
While everyone was still looking around, Jiang Hao followed without thinking about it.
There is no hesitation at all. Now that I have decided to take the road of serialization, I will definitely hear various voices, and this cannot be changed.
Everyone saw that someone had already followed, and the rest also followed.
Almost half of the people in the room chose to stay.
****
in the conference room.
Teraki Kyoko put the projector in place, and she and the team sat at the back of everyone.
"Okay, after you go up, introduce the title of your work, the general content of the story, the goal is to finish as many chapters, and how many chapters you have prepared now. Whoever is ready can go up by yourself."
"......"
It was quiet.
Just... who dares to be the first? !
What if the people behind are better than your own and your own is forgotten?
Everyone has their own calculations in their hearts, and no one wants to suffer.
At this time, it was still Jiang Hao who took the initiative to stand up.
"I'll come first."
Teraki Kyoko expressed appreciation for the person who dared to go up first, but when she looked up, she found that this person turned out to be Jiang Hao.
"You....Aren't you the assistant of Hayao Miyazaki? Could it be that Hayao Miyazaki has a new work?" Kyoko Terugi was undoubtedly pleasantly surprised and surprised when she saw Jiang Hao again.
If Mr. Hayao Miyazaki is willing to publish another work, then the biggest problem they are facing in the literature and art sector now will be solved!
Other contributors also had different opinions after hearing Teraki Kyoko's words. Some were surprised and some were worried.
Who would have thought that Hayao Miyazaki's assistant would also appear?The people present are all those who have read Spirited Away's serial comics, and they have all been inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's teacher to some extent. No one here may have thought that they would actually want to talk to Mr. Miyazaki. to compete for the same serial slot.
"No way... Mr. Miyazaki Hayao even sent someone here... I suddenly seem to be going home..."
"In fact, I am willing to give up automatically...Although I really hope to see my work be serialized, but in fact, I am more looking forward to Mr. Miyazaki's new work."
"No wonder, this person dared to be the first to follow in the living room just now. It turns out that he is the assistant of a famous teacher, so it makes sense. Being famous is a great thing, even an assistant is arrogant."
All kinds of voices around him made Jiang Hao feel very embarrassed... Although the current situation has appeared in his mind many times, and it will definitely happen again in the future, it is inevitable that he will feel embarrassed .
"No, no... I didn't come here this time as the assistant of Mr. Hayao Miyazaki. I came here as the assistant of another teacher to help submit the manuscript." Jiang Hao quickly explained in order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
After his words came out, naturally some people were happy and some were sad.
The ones who are happy must be all the people present who want to compete for the serialization slot together, and the ones who are worried are naturally the editor-in-chief of the literature and art section, Kyoko Terugi.
The smile on Teraki Kyoko's face froze instantly after hearing Jiang Hao's words, but after all, she also knew Jiang Hao, and she also specially got instructions from that adult to take care of him, so naturally she would not make Jiang Hao too embarrassed .
"It's okay, then you can start the introduction when you are ready."
Jiang Hao came to the front of the conference room with the materials he had prepared.
[Master, don't be nervous, relax, you will be fine! ]
Hanhan's system's encouragement made Jiang Hao feel a little better, but nervousness was still unavoidable.
Because this time he came here as an assistant to Mr. Wu Toge Hu Shiqing, he had to forget all the achievements made by Spirited Away and introduce him as a newbie.In order to better let the editor-in-chief of the literature and art section understand, Jiang Hao also specially made a ppt.
In the middle of the first ppt is the logo of Demon Slayer: Blade, and below it is the signature of the author Wutoge Hu Shiqing.
Take a deep breath....take a deep breath....it'll be fine!
"Hello editor-in-chief, hello staff, and everyone here. I'm Jiang Hao, and I'm the assistant of Mr. Wutoge Shiqing, the creator of the work I'm going to introduce next. Teacher Shiqing is unable to come here in person due to some personal reasons, so please let me introduce the work "Ghost Slayer: Blade" for her. Please give me your advice." Jiang Hao finally came to everyone present A standard ninety-degree bow.
Out of politeness, the people sitting below had to give Jiang Hao some applause even if they didn't want to.
Teraki Kyoko really has a lot of questions in her heart. Why did Jiang Hao, who was clearly the assistant of Mr. Miyazaki Hayao, now become the assistant of Mr. Wutoge Hushiqing?It's really strange.......
"At the beginning of the story, when the protagonist Tomon Tanjiro went out to sell charcoal, his family of four were killed by evil spirits, but his sister Nezuko turned into a cannibal evil spirit inexplicably. In order to restore the younger sister to a human, the protagonist found out The murderer who killed the whole family became a member of the Demon Slayer Squad. The protagonist Tanjiro and his younger sister Nezuko are shown in the screen.”
Jiang Hao pressed the button of the remote control in his hand, and the ppt came to the second page.
The second page is a colorful illustration of the protagonist Tomon Tanjiro protecting his sister Nezuko who has turned into a ghost with one hand and holding a sword in the other. It is the cover of the first volume of the manga published in Modern Demon Slayer: Blade.
Teraki Kyoko was not that interested when she heard the summary of the story, but now she is interested again after seeing the pictures.
Although it is a very simple picture, and the degree of refinement is definitely not top-notch, the character design and the use of colors are really eye-catching.
The other submission competitors here are also secretly comparing.
Jiang Hao stayed on the second page of the ppt for a short while, so that everyone could see it clearly, and then turned to the next page.
The third page is a few cartoons of the first chapter. Whether it is the storyboard or the rendering of the atmosphere, it shows the care and skills of Mr. Wutoge Hu Shiqing everywhere.
While flipping through the pages of ptt, Jiang Hao explained the content of the story and the characters that appeared in accordance with the comics.
Whether it's the protagonist Tanjiro's tragic experience in the human world, or the appearance of his sister Nezuko turned into a ghost, or the character who just appeared on the scene holding a tadao engraved with "Evil Ghost Slayer" in his hand... everything It makes people instantly enter the world in the story, and can't help but wonder what happened behind.
Teraki Kyoko herself maintains an attitude of neither boasting nor derogatory towards this work.
The explosion of Spirited Away is indeed unexpected by many people, but the background of the story is actually more modern, and there is also a hot spring culture familiar to Neon people. I don’t know if this sense of introduction is a mistake. Whether the collision was intentional by Mr. Hayao Miyazaki, both created a stable foundation for Spirited Away's popularity.
But she is not sure about the Demon Slayer Blade in front of her...
Are modern people really still interested in stories that developed during the Taisho period?
This is something Teraki Kyoko cannot be sure of.
But it is undeniable that the content of the first chapter really attracted her.
This is the end of Jiang Hao’s introduction to his works, and the next step is to answer some questions and so on.
Teraki Kyoko asked: "How long is this manga in total?"
"Teacher Hu Shiqing said that there should be nearly two hundred words." Jiang Hao replied.
"Submit all the manuscripts you have now, and I will reply to you after a while if you can serialize them." Teraki Kyoko said.
The first chapter is indeed good, but who can guarantee whether the rest will be good?At least it has to be played stably until dozens of episodes.
"Ok."
Jiang Hao's introduction ended here, he handed his manuscript to Teraki Kyoko, and returned to his seat.
The people around were all discussing Jiang Hao's performance just now.
"Looking at what other people say, I'm really getting less and less confident... As expected, I should have gone home just now..."
"I thought it would be easy to submit a manuscript now, but I didn't expect to meet another great god...Why have I never heard of the name Wutoge Hu Shiqing?"
"I am me too."
Teraki Kyoko listened to the discussions around her.
It's not just that you haven't heard of it, even she hasn't heard of it, okay?
But speaking of it, what is the origin of this Jiang Hao?How do you work as an assistant everywhere?And they are all the kind of god-level creators who have never heard of it... From a certain point of view, he is also very powerful...
...
.......
The rest of the audience took turns to recommend and introduce their own works.
Starting with Jiang Hao's work, Ghost Slayer: Blade of My Toge Hu Shiqing, the various staff members of the literature and art sector still have great hopes for the people behind.
However, sometimes, hope is often only hope...
When everyone's submitted works are displayed, the entire art department really just wants to quickly turn back the time to the first person introduced, and let them wash their eyes!
——What kind of demons and ghosts are these? !
Very embarrassing, really embarrassing!
The picture is a mess, and even the basic human body structure is not clear.
Eight out of ten people are all about traveling through different worlds, half of the eight people are about bathing, and half are about soup houses.
If it's not to maintain the image, they really want to say that you just write Spirited Away's name on it, wouldn't it be fine? !
It's really scary!
There are some techniques with stories but no painting, and some techniques with no stories. …
From this point of view, it seems that the first work that appeared on the stage is really the pinnacle.
Good guy....straight down a good guy...
They thought this was the beginning of the manga, but they didn't expect that the first one would still be the peak of appearance.
Teraki Kyoko tried her best to maintain her facial expression, and sent away all the people who came to contribute.
Jiang Hao is also about to leave, he just wants to go back to sleep now.
After a long period of continuous blasting, and the presentation of the speech with high concentration and tension just now, he now feels that he can fall asleep standing up!
"Please wait a moment," Terugi Kyoko called to stop Jiang Hao.
"Is there a problem?"
"We will discuss about the serialization as soon as possible and give you an answer. I hope you can help us say a few good words in front of Mr. Wutoge Hu Shiqing, and let them choose to serialize in the literature and art section of our Asahi Shimbun." Teraki Kyoko did this to leave good seedlings.
Everyone has seen the weird things just now. It is actually obvious who will get the serialization position after Spirited Away, but if they like such a good thing, others must also like it.
Since the Spirited Away fire, other companies, such as magazine companies and other news companies, also want to get a share of the pie, so we have to be vigilant.
Jiang Hao also knew it in his heart: "Understood, I look forward to your good news."
In fact, Jiang Hao already felt in his heart that the serialization position this time should be almost inseparable.
To be happy is to be happy. It can be seen that Jiang Hao really couldn't be happy after seeing those people who competed with him for the serialization position just now.
——The manga revival work in this world is far from over!
...
......
Jiang Hao really wanted to find a random hotel in Tokyo to sleep for a day, he was really tired, but after thinking about it, he would pay for Spirited Away to make colorful physical comic books, so he went silent again. Dispelled the idea.
Saving money and saving money, life has indeed improved, but now he is still far from the time when he can spend money freely.
Jiang Hao went to Tokyo early in the morning, and it was only afternoon when he returned to Yokohama after finishing his work.
This is not the time for students and office workers to leave get out of class or get off work, and there are not too many people on the street.
Jiang Hao was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. Apart from going home to sleep, he didn't have any other things in his mind.
When he was passing by the alley, a dark figure followed behind stealthily.Holding something like a handkerchief in his hand, he walked forward quickly and covered Jiang Hao's mouth and nose with the handkerchief from behind.
Jiang Hao thought about struggling, but the effect of the medicine took place very quickly, and he was fainted in a short while.
At the last moment before coma, Jiang Hao only hated himself for working too hard, why didn't he give some time to the supernatural ability.
Damn...
The society is very simple, but what is complicated is... people!
****
Jiang Hao didn't know how long he had been in a coma. When he regained consciousness, he felt weak all over his body and his throat was dry.
He tried to activate the supernatural power, but failed, indicating that the cooling time had not passed.
Damn... what's going on? !
Jiang Hao found that his hands and feet were tied to the chair, and the surroundings were so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.
I didn't expect... It's really strange that he was kidnapped for the first time in his 20 years of life in a different world.
He doesn't know what the person who kidnapped him wants. He has no money, no sex, and no family background. Is there any benefit in kidnapping him?
Jiang Hao can swear that he has never done anything bad.
"Silly system, can you hear me?" Jiang Hao tried to communicate with the system.
[Owner!Master, it's great that you're still alive, woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!I almost thought you were going to die, and I was ready to cry for you, although I didn't cry, but... woo woo woo, it's great that you are alive! ]
The funny voice of the Hanhan system sounded in his head, which made Jiang Hao feel a little bit of peace of mind.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the only person he could turn to for help was Hanhan System.
Jiang Hao lowered his voice and tried to use the smallest voice to communicate with Hanhan's system: "Hanhan, can you forcefully activate my supernatural ability to let me leave here? It's like when I encountered danger on the first day I first came to this world Like that."
Jiang Hao lives alone, and there are no neighbors around. It is impossible for anyone to find that he is missing or has not returned home. Only the Hanhan system can save him.
[Master.....I can't ah woo woo woo!In fact, according to the regulations, I can't force you to activate the master's supernatural ability at all... But you see, our relationship is so good that it's okay to activate it.But the problem now is that the supernatural ability itself has entered the cooling down period, even I can't force it to complete the cooling down immediately......]
After listening to Hanhan's system explanation, Jiang Hao decisively chose to accept the reality: "Now we can only delay the time as much as possible. Once the cooldown is over, I will see who can catch me!"
As soon as Jiang Hao finished speaking, the door was kicked open from the outside.
The light from outside came in suddenly, very dazzling, Jiang Hao subconsciously closed his eyes tightly.
"Yo, Jiang Haojun, long time no see, it's great to see you alive and kicking!"
Jiang Hao hasn't opened his eyes yet, but he is very sure that he recognizes this voice!
"You are--"
Letting his eyes adapt to the bright light, Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes, and the person standing in front of him turned out to be the editor-in-chief of the Sakura Daily!
"Editor? Why are you—"
Snapped--
With a clear applause, Jiang Hao only felt a buzzing in his brain, followed by a burning pain on his face.
The editor-in-chief slapped Jiang Hao's face hard with the back of his hand with the ring, and the ring left a shallow scratch on Jiang Hao's skin.
"It's really thanks to you, I'm like a dead dog now!" The editor-in-chief grabbed Jiang Hao's hair and made him look up at himself, "I really didn't take you seriously at first , I didn’t expect it, I didn’t expect it.... You actually have something to do with the candidate for a cadre of the Port Mafia, I really underestimated you.”
Jiang Hao didn't know if he was beaten stupid just now, or because his IQ was not online, why didn't he understand a sentence?
"I....I don't know what the port mafia is, and I don't know any cadre candidates. Is there some misunderstanding between us?" Jiang Hao tried his best to communicate with the editor-in-chief in a calm tone, knowing in his heart that the communication should have no effect , but as long as he can delay the time, he can save himself by the end of the cooling time of the ability.
And the main thing is that he really doesn't know any candidates for the port mafia's cadres!
The editor-in-chief's face was full of hatred, obviously he didn't believe a single word Jiang Hao said.
"If it's not you, it's Hayao Miyazaki behind you. Otherwise they wouldn't have kicked me out of the newspaper after I stopped serializing your stuff!"
At that time, Spirited Away was serialized in the Sakura Daily, and the response was very good, and the sales volume was also increasing day by day.As the editor-in-chief, he naturally wanted to retain such a labor force who could lay golden eggs, so he thought of using a contract to tie Hayao Miyazaki.
As a result, this Hayao Miyazaki never appeared from the beginning to the end, and no matter what the details were, he had to hand over to his assistant, a man named Jiang Hao.This is nothing, as long as the contract is signed, they will honestly serialize it in the Sakura Daily.Who knew that they would actually play the game of disappearance, no matter how they contacted them to ask about the signing of the contract, they would just practice Tai Chi without saying anything. In the end, the assistant named Jiang Hao turned off the phone directly.
It's nothing, he has worked in Sakura Daily for so many years, he must know what to do next, so he stopped the serialization of Spirited Away, and also blocked Jiang Hao's phone number, so he had to come in person Look for him in the Sakura Newspaper.
At that time, he can lower the cost of serialization, after all, they were the ones who didn't know how to praise.
However, not only did they not come, but his own life was also ruined...
Not long after, Spirited Away started serializing again in the Asahi Shimbun!Not only that, the port mafia terminated its cooperation with the Sakura Newspaper, and so did their gangsters.
The top was very angry and kicked him out as the editor-in-chief.
'It's all stupid things you did, offended someone who shouldn't be offended, get out of here! '
The words of the boss are still lingering in his mind.
In Yokohama, offending the port mafia is almost like committing suicide.He could no longer find any decent job, and the originally complete family was full of quarrels because of no income.He thought about leaving Yokohama, but there were many difficulties whether it was moving or applying for documents, as if an invisible hand was pulling him.
It's them from the port mafia....it must be them!
But what puzzled him was why...why he just ordered to stop serializing a work as the editor-in-chief!Why are things the way they are?
This question kept bothering him until he found a photo online.
One of the people in the photo is Hayao Miyazaki's assistant Jiang Hao. He didn't intend to pay more attention to it, but he saw another person in the photo.In the photo, another person didn't show his whole face. The editor-in-chief thought it looked familiar at first, but after a closer look, he found that this person was Osamu Dazai, a candidate for the cadre of the port mafia!
It turned out to be like this...it turned out to be like this...
He got it all!
He understood why he was suddenly put into this situation just by doing the same thing as usual. It was all because of him... just because of this person!
...
.......
Jiang Hao understood, the editor-in-chief thought it was because he refused to let Spirited Away continue to be serialized, that's why he was so annoyed.
"It's an acquaintance no matter what, I still hope you calm down and think about it, don't make the same mistake again and again." Jiang Hao really felt that he was wronged, "I don't know any candidate for the cadre of the port mafia, Dazai Jun is just a minor child. Besides, forcing the contributors to sign the Overlord Clause is your fault first, and everyone has the right to choose whether to stay or not."
The reason why Jiang Hao called it the Overlord Clause is because those who did not complete the specified KPI during the contract period or those who want to break the contract must pay an astronomical amount of breach of contract, and the contributions of both parties are not directly proportional.
But it was obvious that the editor-in-chief couldn't listen to anything now.
"Hahahaha! Do you think I'm stupid?! If it weren't for your shady relationship with Osamu Dazai, would the port mafia treat me like this because of this?!" The editor-in-chief took out a mobile phone from his body, and that was Jiang Hao's cell phone, "You already have Osamu Dazai's phone number, and you still say that you are fine?"
Jiang Hao really felt that the person in front of him was completely unreasonable: "We just met that day, and isn't exchanging phone numbers a common thing between friends?"
"Hahahaha, you are indeed friends, yes, friends in bed, do you count?"
"Keep your mouth clean, only a dirty mind like you would see everything as dirty!" Jiang Hao never imagined that there would be such a rascal in the anime world that all Two-dimensional fans yearn for.
The editor-in-chief was clearly insane. He unlocked Jiang Hao's phone and found Osamu Dazai's phone number: "Your words are really nice, so let's call and try."
"Why should others be involved in the matter between us?"
"Obviously you're just a slut for power and status, and you still say it so beautifully, stop acting, your pretty face won't work for me!"
Jiang Hao felt that his blood pressure was about to rise from the anger.
The relationship between him and Osamu Dazai is like that of pancake fruit?What else could it be?
The editor-in-chief called Dazai Osamu in front of Jiang Hao.
****
Port Mafia Building, Chief Office.
Today it is rare that Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuya get together to report to Mori Omi at the same time.
In the middle of the conversation, Osamu Dazai's cell phone rang suddenly.
"I'm sorry." Osamu Dazai expressed his apology for the phone's voice interrupting the conversation. He took out the phone and looked at the caller ID on it.
It was actually Jiang Hao?
Although they exchanged mobile phone numbers, they really had no contact at all.
Osamu Dazai was stunned for a while, and this small move was caught by Mori Ogai: "What's the matter Dazai-kun? Is there any problem?"
Osamu Dazai thought about whether to tell the boss, after all, the relationship is quite complicated......
In the end, Osamu Dazai chose not to reply to the boss, and connected the phone: "I am Dazai——"
"Osamu Dazai, you don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that your people are in my hands now, if you don't do what I say, I will let everyone's heads fall to the ground!"
Osamu Dazai's brain was running fast, and he asked in a flat tone: "What do you want?"
"Hahahaha! Unexpectedly, the candidate for the cadre of the port mafia is actually a love interest. It seems that he has served you well."
The obscenities on the phone spread throughout the office, even Chuya Nakahara next to him and Ogai Mori sitting on the desk could hear them clearly without using the speakerphone.
"Tell me your conditions." Osamu Dazai responded calmly.
"Okay! Happy people! I want [-] million cash, and it will be delivered to the xxx terminal in two hours! I will pay the money and the person, and I will not make life difficult for you. Your time is running out, so get ready to go!"
"Wait," Osamu Dazai asked before the man hung up the phone, "How do I make sure he's still alive?"
"Oh, that's easy, you wait—"
The voice on the other end of the phone disappeared for a while, and then I heard the voice of the man talking to someone else.
"Hey, hurry up and tell him to come save you... You bitch, I'll let you talk!"
There were some slapping sounds from the receiver, and a very small gasp, as if enduring pain.
Osamu Dazai said: "I know, I am preparing now, and you are not allowed to hurt him."
"Don't worry, I promise you will see a living one."
"beep--"
The person on the other end of the phone hung up the phone immediately after finishing speaking.
"........."
****
The editor-in-chief hung up the phone and kicked Jiang Hao who was tied to the chair.
"The mouth is very hard, and you don't say a word."
A trace of blood dripped from the corner of Jiang Hao's mouth, and he could feel the fishy sweetness in his throat.
The editor-in-chief asked him to call for help on the phone just now, but he was beaten several times when he refused.
It really hurts!
Jiang Hao was taught to be a kind person since he was a child, this is the first time he has a feeling of 'it would be nice if this person could die'......
To ask for [-] million... is really a big mouth for a lion!Dazai-kun is a minor, where did he get [-] million? !
And what kind of cash is needed... It takes a while for the bank to count the money, right?It really has lost even basic common sense.
[Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...]
Jiang Hao could hear a hint of crying from Hanhan System's words, it's a pity that he can't be born to comfort it now.
It's okay...just bear it a little longer...
Although face slapping hurts a bit and may disfigure your appearance, it's okay... Now that the technology of plastic surgery is so advanced, you don't have to worry about losing your appearance.
Jiang Hao comforted himself in his heart, and it was considered a pleasure to have a hard time.
Fortunately, the editor-in-chief said that he would get the money in two hours, which was considered to have won him two hours.
The Hanhan system seems to know what Jiang Hao is thinking.
[Master, come on!There are only ten hours left until the cooldown ends! ]
Ten hours...it's really a lot...
Jiang Hao closed his eyes, trying to recharge his energy.
If he stays here for ten hours, even if he doesn't die, he will be disabled. He has to wait for a while and find a way to run away by himself when the editor-in-chief is going to rest and go to sleep.
What a guy...Jiang Hao felt that after going through this time, he really grew up...Next time he will definitely not step out of the house during the cooldown time of the special ability!
****
call ended.
Nakahara Chuya asked, "Hey Dazai, what's going on?"
Osamu Dazai sighed silently: "It's really too troublesome to explain, you should listen to it yourself."
Osamu Dazai repeated what was on the phone just now.
Zhongyuan Zhong also heard it in a cloud, but Mori Ogai knew it.
When he heard the gasps from behind, the smile on Mori Ogai's face unconsciously widened a bit.
He was most familiar with this voice, Jiang Hao's voice.
Looking at Boss' expression, Dazai knew that he was waiting for him to explain the matter between himself and Jiang Hao. Dazai said that he met Jiang Hao when he was running errands for Boss that day, and the two of them went to the coffee shop to drink tea. We chatted and eventually exchanged phone numbers.
Osamu Dazai said: "When I was in the coffee shop that day, I knew someone was taking a sneak shot, but that person didn't have any malice on him, and the video of Jiang Haojun drawing pictures in a park in Tokyo unexpectedly became popular. I thought I was a fan of Jiang Haojun, so I didn't pay too much attention to it, I didn't expect such a thing to happen."
Mori Ogai nodded after listening to Osamu Dazai's explanation. Although he still looked at him with a little dissatisfaction, he didn't care about these things for the time being.
"Jiang Haojun was my benefactor at the time, no matter what the reason or relationship, this kindness must be repaid."
Mori Ogai gave the reason in a high-sounding way, but in fact, he just wanted to save people.
Osamu Dazai said that as an excellent subordinate, he must see through without telling the truth.
"Let's go, Chuya, let's go get ready." Osamu Dazai didn't forget to bring Chuya Nakahara with him before he went out, "The words of the Boss... well, in fact, just me and Chuya are enough, but It doesn't really matter if you think about it."
It's just a bit of a fuss.....
Zhongya Zhongya now only knows that the kidnapped person was the savior of the Boss back then, and now that the other party is in danger, they are loyal black hands, but they are definitely going to rescue him.
Osamu Dazai sighed silently, anyway, he can almost guess when it will happen later...
When Mori Ogai was alone in the room, he took out his own phone.
In fact, there is a person named Jiang Hao in the address book.
Jiang Hao's phone number was known to him when he was still in the forest hut. He didn't want to take anything with him before he left, but he seemed to have saved this phone number in the end.
The replay of the voice on Dazai Osamu's cell phone just now, and Jiang Hao's gasping for enduring pain kept repeating in his mind.
Why?Why was he beaten without saying a word, and refused to call for help?
Are you stupid, or are you stupid......
