This boring world without comics

Mori Ogai enjoyed a few days of peace, as if living in a paradise.

Waking up in the morning with the sunshine and the sounds of small animals, there is no endless work and endless subordinates, and I don’t know how much I feel relaxed.

If you have the opportunity to retire alive, you must find such a place to retire.

"Good morning Rintaro," Jiang Hao knocked on the door and came in, "Seeing that you are recovering well."

"Good morning, thank you for your care, otherwise it would not be possible to recover so smoothly." Sen Ou smiled outside, this is his usual appearance.

Jiang Hao asked unintentionally: "Has anyone ever said that your smile seems to be deliberate?"

The corner of Mori Ogai's mouth froze.

It seems that there is really no, and it seems that no one will say it?

"Yes, is it?"

"Because Lin Taro, your smile is very standard, and the angle of the corners of your mouth is raised, every time you smile, it seems to be exactly the same." Jiang Hao's observation of such details is very good, "I just said it casually, you don't want to Take it to heart."

"Ah, it's okay. It's also the first time I've heard someone say that. It's very novel."

"Come and eat." Jiang Hao closed the door first and went out.

Mori Ogai poked his face with his hand, he seemed to always smile like this?

Is it really so deliberate?

Come downstairs.

Jiang Hao fully utilized his strengths as a child of Huaxia.

Not to mention how good his cooking skills are, anyway, he is better than the Chinese chefs here by a few million points.

"I smelled it as soon as I got out of the room. It smells so good." Mori Ogai really felt that recuperating here is a million times better than being in the port mafia, so he didn't have to pick this food.

A few days ago, none of his porridge was the same!

"I made wonton soup today, and you may be tired of drinking the porridge for several days." In fact, Jiang Hao himself was tired of drinking it.

Usually he is too lazy to cook, isn't the discounted bento in the convenience store and supermarket delicious?But those foods are too hard, and the neon things are cold, not suitable for patients to eat at all.

Cooking alone always feels a bit cumbersome and wasteful. Now that there is one more person in the family, cooking for two is fine.

Mori Ogai touched his belly without a trace, and after ten days and a half months of raising him here, he felt that his belly might be coming out.It can't be like this, his image as the boss of the port mafia is still necessary.

but--

Mori Ogai picked up a juicy and plump food called wonton with a spoon, and put it in his mouth: "It's delicious."

Although I don't know what wonton is, it is delicious!

"I also wrapped a lot and put them in the refrigerator to freeze, so I can usually cook and eat like this."

This is a must-have skill for lazy people. When you are free, you can make some frozen dumplings and the like.

"Jiang Haojun is really good, he knows so many things." Mori Ogai has seen Jiang Hao's paintings, and even a layman who doesn't know much about painting can see that his skills are very solid.

Jiang Hao replied: "It's just a necessary skill for life. If you live alone, you must know something."

Mori Ogai nodded in agreement: "Speaking of which, what does Jiang Haojun do? Is he a painter?"

This is the first time Mori Owai has come here these days to ask for information.

He noticed a lot of small details from his own observations. The person he came out to call Jiang Hao didn't seem to have much skill or scheming, but the more he was harmless to humans and animals, he needed to be careful.

"I don't dare to be a painter, but it's about the same type. I'm an assistant to a cartoonist..." Jiang Hao thought it was just a small talk, but he didn't care too much at the moment he said it. Still came back immediately.

"Cartoonist? This is really a rare profession."

"By the way," Jiang Hao remembered at this time that he wanted to share his own works with Rintaro, "Do you usually read newspapers? I have a serial comic that I am in charge of on Sakura Daily."

Jiang Hao casually took a newspaper from his own collection.

Mori Ogai picked it up, pretending to be very interested: "So it's like this—"

"Sorry, I forgot that you are a doctor, and you are usually very busy. You probably seldom read newspapers such as Sakura Daily, which are more gossip books..."

I always feel that Lin Taro seems to be very knowledgeable. After all, a doctor must have read a lot of books and has a very high degree of education. It is really ill-considered to give him such entertainment comics as Amway.

When Mori Ogai was reading it with interest, the newspaper in his hand was suddenly taken away.

"It's all for entertainment, so don't watch it..." Jiang Hao felt really embarrassed.

Recommend comics to doctors....The ones I draw are not working cells....

Mori Ogai was a little confused: "It's okay, it's very good-looking. The profession of cartoonist is quite rare, and Jiang Haojun is the first person I have seen who has related work."

Although he was taken away before he could see clearly...

"Actually, there's nothing special about it. I really want to hear what your daily work is like, Rintaro. It must be very exciting, right? Being active in the front line of saving people, snatching people from the hands of death, I think it's so handsome." Ah!" The envy and admiration on Jiang Hao's face cannot be hidden, the profession of saving lives as a doctor feels so great and noble.

Mori Ogai has no way to deal with this type of person.

How should I put it...Naturally?

Mori Ogai originally planned to bring this topic up just like that, but seeing the other party's blinking and expectant eyes, he decided to say something.

"It's really exciting." Guns/fights almost every day.

"...and quite active on the front line." It's just the front line of killing people.

"...It's a bit exaggerated to snatch someone from the god of death." Because more people are sent there?

The more Mori Ogai said, the more he felt guilty. The other party had completely brought himself into the image of a good person. At the same time, he believed everything he said without the slightest doubt, which was very embarrassing.

When Jiang Hao heard Lin Taro admitting it himself, he exclaimed, "It's really handsome!"

"It's okay..." Mori Ogai only hoped that this part of the chat could pass quickly.

When Jiang Hao was about to ask something more, his cell phone rang.

"Sorry, I'll answer the call first." Jiang Hao took out his phone, and the moment he saw the notification of the incoming call, the smile on his face froze.

Mori Ogai, who was sitting directly opposite him, quickly noticed it. He observed Jiang Hao calmly, wondering what made him show such an expression.

"Hi, I'm the editor in chief... about the contract? Actually, it's a little inconvenient for me to answer the phone right now. I'm going to go abroad now..." Jiang Hao made up nonsense to delay time, and let the phone call Stay away from yourself, "Hello? Hello? Did you hear that? It seems that the signal is not very good? My plane is about to take off, so let's do this first."

Jiang Hao pressed the end call key hard, and then turned off the phone directly.

"Did something happen?" Mori Ogai felt that if he didn't ask anything at this time, he would look very deliberate.

When Jiang Hao was talking on the phone just now, he completely forgot that there was someone watching beside him, and a look of embarrassment flashed across his face: "It's all right, it's the editor-in-chief of the Sakura News."

"Sakura Newspaper, that's the one you're in charge of manga submissions, right?"

"Yes, I checked the information before, and it was the only platform that had a comic foundation, but I didn't expect..." Jiang Hao laughed while talking, "There are some troubles now, but I believe that in the future Everything will be fine."

"If I remember correctly, the top executives of the Sakura Newspaper don't seem to have a good reputation in the industry." Mori Ogai didn't quite understand this kind of thing, but after all, it was one of the industries of the port mafia in Yokohama. I've heard of it a little bit.

"Really?!" Jiang Hao searched the Internet, but he couldn't find any useful information at all. He didn't expect that there was someone who knew about this in front of him. "If it's convenient, can you tell me more?"

It was not good for Mori Ogai to refuse directly.

"It seems to be about the news that the top executives of the Sakura News like to buy out talents. Those who sign the contract need to complete certain KPIs on a regular basis, resulting in a decline in quality. The works of those who do not agree to sign the contract will be rejected. This is the Sakura Daily one year. Not as good as a year's reason."

The port mafia has someone in the top management of the Sakura Daily. Although it is only a small newspaper, Mori Ogai is also aware of the power of the current public opinion. Everything must be prevented before it happens. This is what he firmly believes.

Jiang Hao nodded, roughly matching what he guessed.

So sure enough... If you don't sign his "Spirited Away" manga series, it will be over.

"Is Jiang Haojun in any trouble?" Mori Ogai asked.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Jiang Hao shook his head vigorously, "I'm fine, I'm worrying you!"

"...Is that so?" Mori Ogai decided not to tell the truth, and turned around to ask, "Isn't Jiang Haojun an assistant? Can you be responsible for such a private matter as signing a contract?"

"I...um...yes." Jiang Hao tried to blur the past, lowered his head and stared at the bowl desperately.

If Mori Ogai couldn't see such obvious unnaturalness, then it wouldn't be Mori Ogai.

As far as this level of lying is concerned, it really needs to be improved.

But Jiang Hao didn't intend to say, and Mori Ogai didn't mean to know, so he didn't continue to ask.

***

After eating, Jiang Hao suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

It doesn't matter if he is the only one there, but now there is a weak doctor in the family, the kind who was chased and killed by the gangsters before, Jiang Hao couldn't help but be extra careful.

"Rin Taro, you go upstairs and hide first, and if something happens, run away from the window on the second floor!"

"I see, what about you?" Mori Ogai couldn't understand, they obviously didn't have a good relationship, and he could see fear and fear in the other's eyes, but he still chose to help himself.why is that?

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Jiang Hao relied on his ability to run away when he couldn't beat him, so he was fine except for a little weak leg.

Mori Ogai remained skeptical, but still went upstairs as Jiang Hao said.

Jiang Hao took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and opened the door.

He imagined that there would be a group of men in black outside the door, but he didn't expect that there were only two of them, and they seemed to be... two children?

"Excuse me, what's the matter?" Jiang Hao's inner tension eased a lot.

Nakahara also took out a photo of Mori Ogai: "Have you seen this person?"

Jiang Hao recognized the people in the photo at a glance, but these two people—

One was wrapped in bandages, probably from that kind of fight.Another grader even dyed his whole head of orange hair and wore blue contact lenses at a young age, and it was properly washed, cut and blown.

Jiang Hao heard that the black people would like to find this kind of minors to do bad things for them, these two people are probably the same as the people who came that night!

"Sorry, I live here alone and I don't know the person in your photo." Jiang Hao calmed down and made himself look less nervous.

Zhong Yuanzhong also obviously didn't believe it. The man in front of him looked flustered, and he knew he was lying!

Osamu Dazai next to him asked, "Is the cart parked outside yours?"

Jiang Hao nodded.

"Excuse me, where did you buy it? When I came here just now, I thought the quality was very good, and I wanted to get a similar one." Osamu Dazai narrowed his eyes slightly when he smiled, giving a very kind look.

Jiang Hao thought that there should be no problem in answering the origin of the cart.

"I bought that from a farmer uncle at a second-hand stall. I used to pull organic fertilizers."

Nakahara Chuya stepped on Osamu Dazai impatiently, wondering what the hell this guy was doing.The person in front of him must be the one the hospital said was the one who took the Boss away. What are you waiting for?Just grab it and ask again!

However, Osamu Dazai's actions can always refresh Chuya's worldview.

"Well, since we don't know the person in the photo, we don't bother."

"Hey—" Zhongyuan Zhong also stopped him, but Osamu Dazai had already closed the door for Jiang Hao first.

Jiang Hao: "..."

I don't know what's going on, but this is going to be over, right?

After Jiang Hao confirmed through Maoyan that there was really no one outside, he hurried up to the second floor.

"Rintaro, it's okay, I sent them away!"

Mori Ogai expressed surprise: "Really? Jiang Haojun is too good! Who is that outside?"

Jiang Hao described their appearance to him while smiling.

Mori Ogai's expression got worse as he heard it, until finally he couldn't even smile.

"So...they just left?" Mori Ogai couldn't believe it.

"Yeah, don't worry, you're safe now." Jiang Hao patted him on the shoulder lightly to express his comfort.

Mori Ogai: "...Really? Thank you."

—Those two idiots!
