……

weekend.

Hayakawa Keiko got up early in the morning, because she promised Natsuki's relationship, she couldn't fall asleep very early, and now she is standing in front of the closet trying on different clothes.

She used to be a home girl, and she didn't pay much attention to dressing. After meeting Natsuki, she slowly wanted to dress herself up, started to learn makeup, and used her pocket money to buy some clothes. Watch videos online to learn some outfits.

Changes don't come naturally, they come with unremitting efforts day by day.

But winter clothes are relatively expensive, so Hayakawa didn't buy new ones, but just exchanged some old clothes from previous years.

"Come on." After everything was ready, she clenched her fists at herself in the mirror to cheer, and then went to the agreed destination.

……

"Welcome, both of you."

Ayano Takahashi pushed open the door and greeted the two of them.

"Hi, excuse me." Hayakawa stood at the door and bowed nervously to her.

The reason for the tension was not because she came to Ayano's house, but because she heard from Natsuki that Ayano was drawing manga and her goal was to become a professional manga artist. She was very surprised.

Today, Xia Shu and I came to visit specially, and also to see how the manga artist spends his weekend.

"Ah, I'm a little embarrassed that you are so reserved." Ayano rubbed the back of her head with a smirk, and hurriedly welcomed the two of them in, "My sister is not at home today, if Natsuki and you cook at noon later, the amount for three people That's enough."

Natsuki Aoi smiled helplessly after hearing this: "You are quite thoughtful, and you have said everything in advance."

Takahashi Ayano raised her eyebrows mischievously, she was in charge of eating anyway, and Xia Shu must make better food than her sister.

She took the two of them up to the second floor, and what Hayakawa expected from behind was the same. Perhaps this is the charm brought by the drama, which can directly affect a reader who wants to watch the original author's comics of this animation. What does the room look like.

Let me state in advance that Hayakawa has always wanted to visit the room where Mr. Hirohiko Araki draws manga!

Natsuki Aoi glanced sideways at Hayakawa, who was looking forward to it. He had expected this a long time ago. After all, Hayakawa’s hobby is to watch dramas and buy some figure figures from animations. Her favorite so far is actually one The figure turned out to be a figure named just we in "Gintama".

And according to the previous feedback, he once took Hayakawa to make small cakes, and he also taught her how to make bento. In addition, the two of them also participated in some sports activities during the break. All these behaviors turned into Specialty, which was fed back to Hayakawa's specialty column.

Then this shows that some active behaviors can also create specialties. Although there are not many, this is at least a good direction to improve scores.

It’s just that Hayakawa often takes her to do some sports, which will cause Hayakawa to be a little depressed sometimes, and occasionally even cause her favorability to drop by 2-3 points. Does this mean that he is actually forcing her to do these things? had a negative impact.

Natsuki Aoi also thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a new idea. Since doing things that are not of interest will lead to a decrease in favorability, it would be fine to start directly from Hayakawa's preferences and choose specialties in reverse.

Hobbies and expertise are two completely different concepts, and her expertise column will not say "like to watch fan dramas". This is just a hobby, not a specialty.

But many specialties can start from hobbies, so Aoi Natsuki finally decided to bring her to Ayano's house after pondering for a long time.

Yes, an unformed cartoonist and a fanatical die-hard fan of fan dramas, the two of them will definitely get along very well.

He also mentioned this topic to Ayano, and the other party was very welcome.

This request was granted:

Let Hayakawa come to the house to be a manga artist's assistant for a day.

"This is the room where I draw comics, please come in."

Ayano touched the wall and lit the lamp in the room.

When the light is turned on, the first thing that catches the eye is a calligraphy copybook hanging on the wall next to the window. The three people who were laughing at first suddenly became respectful.

"Diligence".

Cartoonists need to be respected.

It is a profession that has condensed the painstaking efforts and sweat of countless people. Even Aoi, who doesn't know much about this industry, can feel the heavy feeling in his heart.

Keiko Hayakawa took a step into the room, and there was a large bookcase on the right. The bookcase was full of JP Club's past comic publications, and the top floor was filled with manga characters, many of which were super rare. This can't help but make her, a fanatical fan, shrink her pupils and cover her mouth in surprise to the point of being speechless.

Natsuki Aoi exchanged glances with Ayano Takahashi at this time, and it seemed that the original goal had been achieved.

Takahashi Ayano still had a smile on her face, trotted into the room, took a deep breath of the smell of rice paper, drawing board, ink mixed with charcoal pencils in the room, then turned around and looked straight at Hayakawa said slowly:

"Welcome to my world..."

Chapter 101 Takahashi Mito was captured by Hayakawa again!

……

"Because I haven't officially become a professional cartoonist yet, and I'm still submitting manuscripts, so the only income I've received so far is the prize money, but I believe that as long as I persist, sooner or later, I can make a living by doing it. First of all, comics The job of a home assistant is to assist cartoonists to complete some auxiliary work."

Ayano introduced some simple drawing tools to Hayakawa, and at the same time took out dot paper from the bag beside her.

"For example, pasting screen dots is the most basic job of the assistant. For example, the shadows on some comics need to paste screen dots, and the screen dot paper has different differences, such as gray screens, floral screens, and anti-white screens. Others are like some Some auxiliary lines when characters or objects move also need to be completed by you."

"Auxiliary line?"

"Well, for example..." Ayano began to look around, and finally her eyes fell on the electric fan hidden in the corner. Then she picked up the plug, plugged it in, dialed it to the first gear, picked up the phone, and looked at the fan. A photo was taken of the fan blade that was fanning the wind.

Then show it to Hayakawa next to him.

"You see, in reality, when I press the button to shoot, the rotating fan blades will not appear to stop, but this kind of blurred feeling, which is called motion blur. will become more obvious,

Many times when you pause the movie, you will find that the movement of the characters and the environment will become blurred, but the animation is different. The animation is not realistic, almost 24 frames per second, like four for one second, high quality It can even produce eight pictures for one second, so when you pause the animation, it will be a complete picture. In theory, there will be no motion blur.

At this time, smart manga artists will take the initiative to add motion blur to the characters, which will also make the whole animation look more tense. This point is very perfect when you watch the battle against Itachi in "Naruto". , the movement is smooth, and the overall performance is also very good.

While manga is before animation, if you want to show the dynamics of people and objects in a completely still state, you need to use auxiliary lines, not only so that readers can witness it with their own eyes, but also have a corresponding picture in their minds. , I say this, do you understand? "

"Well... Ayano, you explained it in great detail, and I completely understand it."

"Oh! The talent is very good, so let's try it right away. I'm free today, so I can teach you slowly."

When Ayano talked about drawing manga, her whole state became active.

Natsuki Aoi, who was sitting cross-legged on the side, took a sip of tea casually, without saying a word to the conversation between the two in front of him.

Seeing Hayakawa's serious face, he seemed to be very interested, which showed that his judgment was not wrong, and it was right to bring her to Ayano's house.

Today's one-day manga artist assistant experience is actually a bait. In fact, Aoi Natsuki hopes that she can take this opportunity to learn manga knowledge, which can be regarded as expanding her expertise on the basis of her hobbies.

Speaking of Hayakawa's network, he is basically alone at home on weekends.

Youth is very short, fleeting, and I am a very homely personality, and it is easy to waste time.

In fact, I also wanted to go out, but I didn't know what to do when I went out. Later, I thought about being alone, or I still didn't want to go out, so I gave up this idea.

If Hayakawa hadn't met him at the beginning, maybe up to now, he might still be the girl who was timid when seeing people and dressed in sloppy clothes.

"Actually, manga artist assistants do different things depending on the manga artist. For example, the manga artist Yoshihiro Togashi, although he has become a sparrow god, but in the heyday of his manga drawing, he not only exploded his liver At the same time, he basically did some fine work by himself. Several assistants around him also said in an interview later that they felt that working with him was like a free man walking. Naturally, there are also some very lazy cartoonists, and there are even some cartoonists who only spend a rough draft and have their assistants complete all the follow-up cartoonists, such people should be condemned and despised.”

"Oh." Hayakawa nodded again and again, and at the same time wrote down the key points of what Ayano just said on a piece of paper with a pen while listening. The two of them were really teaching like a master and an apprentice.

"By the way, Ayano, you just mentioned the explosive liver, which reminds me of the two protagonists in "The King of Manga". Later, after becoming a professional cartoonist, because of the relationship between high school students, they finally took care of their studies and drawing at the same time. Manga is two things, and the body is abnormal, so if you really become a professional manga artist in the future, Ayano, what should you do?"

"It's okay, I've fully realized this point, and if I really become a professional cartoonist one day..." Ayano's eyes gradually extended, and then turned to Hayakawa, "At that time, please A lot of support!"

"Eh, me? Me?"

"Yes, I definitely hope that you can help me all the time. Before that, I can learn more. After I officially become a professional cartoonist, I will officially hire you to be my first assistant. If the comics become popular, I will Finding two, three or four helpers to help me, wouldn't it be a blast, just let it go!"

Ayano said righteously, and that aura instantly affected Hayakawa holding the pen. In fact, she has long wanted to try drawing by herself, but she has never known where to start. It is very difficult to enroll in a manga class. Trouble, so in the end, I just became a very ordinary anime fan, and occasionally bought some peripheral Blu-rays for my favorite characters to support them.

But now, when such an opportunity was really in front of him, Hayakawa couldn't help but speed up his heartbeat a lot, and his eyes burst out with more splendor.

"Don't worry so much, I will teach you if you don't understand, let's draw manga happily together."

Ayano tilted her head and smiled at her, tossing her ponytailed braids.

Natsuki Aoi on the side also took another look at her. Although the words were a bit old-fashioned, the appeal of the scene was good. In addition...

Facing Hayakawa, who has never experienced this at all, this is simply a big straight ball.

Like the last home run in baseball, it hit her deepest.

Hayakawa blushed quickly and kept nodding his head up and down, with his two little hands tightly clenched on his knees, the whole picture looked like a child.

Sure enough, simple people are easily moved.

Natsuki Aoi then took another sip of tea, and the two in front of him once again entered the "teacher-student relationship", and he continued to act as an outsider, not expressing any opinions on what they said.

"It's getting late, so I'll go cook lunch first. It's in your refrigerator... Forget it, I'll go and see it myself." Asking Ayano is tantamount to asking for nothing. He stood up and walked towards the door.

"Looking forward to your lunch!" Ayano's voice came from behind.

What a rice bug who just waits for the meal.

Natsuki Aoi showed a helpless expression, but after all, it is all up to her to improve Hayakawa's specialty points now, and the small requirement of cooking can still be met.

Go down to the first floor and go straight into the kitchen.

Opened the refrigerator, oh?There are quite a lot of things inside. It seems that there are still signs of cooking. Could it be Takahashi Meidu?Is she really learning to cook slowly by herself?

Forget it, don't want that.

Natsuki Aoi took out some vegetables from the refrigerator, as well as two rib-eye steaks placed in the freezer.

Just have a simple meal at noon.

Just as he was thinking about it, a girl's exclamation interrupted his thoughts of recalling the recipe. When he turned his head, he happened to see Takahashi Mito coming back from the outside.

The two looked at each other, Natsuki Aoi acted calmly, after all, she had been mentally prepared for her sudden return, but Takahashi Mito on the other side never expected that Aoi would be at her home, When she just entered the door, she saw a man's figure appearing, which shocked her immediately.

Fortunately, she recognized Natsuki Aoi at a second glance, otherwise she might have turned around and rushed out of the gate.

At this time, Takahashi Mito took off her high-top boots, revealing the black stockings inside. Natsuki Aoi glanced at it out of masculine instinct, but at this moment, Takahashi Mito felt as if she was a fruit As if exposed in front of this boy, he immediately frowned, pressed his right foot on his left, and said sharply: "What are you looking at! Why are you in my house!"

The topic became normal.

Natsuki Aoi got used to her domineering attitude, so she became normal, turned around and walked into the kitchen with the things she took from the refrigerator.

"It was Ayano who asked me to come, or something about manga."

"Ayano again? Well, she dared to ask someone to come to the house. It's against her!" Takahashi Mito quickly put on her cotton shoes and walked quickly to the kitchen.

"Are you still cooking?"

"Yeah, have you eaten? Would you like to have some together?" Aoi Natsuki pulled out the chopping board from the corner of the kitchen and began to clean the tableware, "Your home is like seasoning and chili powder, etc. where?"

Takahashi Meidu frowned, and immediately stepped forward and pulled out the first drawer on the left side of the stove: "You are really familiar."

"Acquaintance, Takahashi, we have known each other for almost a semester, and the number of times we have met... I don't count a hundred or fifty times, so it can be regarded as a very close friend." Aoi Natsuki's expression was indifferent Said.

friend...

Takahashi Mito doesn't hate this word.

"Also, I found that you have quite a lot of ingredients in the refrigerator. Didn't you always say that you order takeaway every day before? Why do you start cooking by yourself now? What is the reason?"

Aoi Natsuki just asked casually, and his subordinates had already started to turn on the faucet to wash the vegetables.

Takahashi Mei heard this, and she couldn't answer for a while. She couldn't say that it was because of the meal you cooked for me that I wanted to cook by myself. It's like a girl who can only move herself!

"..."

"What's the matter, I've been chatting with you lately and suddenly you don't talk, I've never seen you like this before." Aoi Natsuki didn't hear any notification that the other party's favorability increased or decreased, since there was no change, then he Don't pay too much attention to what you just said.

"No, I just feel that it's not good to eat takeaway often, so I want to make a la carte, that's all! Don't think too much about it, it has nothing to do with you!"

"I didn't say it was related either."

"Okay! I don't want to talk to you anymore, you should cook quickly, I'm a little hungry too." Takahashi Mito spoke in a tone of disobedience, turned to look at him again, and then walked into the living room .

Speaking of which, since he has already come to his home, the gift he bought before...

Yes, the pen she bought before has not been sent out yet.

No timing, so keep waiting.

This wait, even directly after Christmas.

"..." Takahashi Mito looked a little strange, feeling that the temperature in the hall was a little low, and looked at Aoi in the kitchen, and then turned on the machine that controlled the room temperature in front of the wall near the door, and turned it up two degrees.

"Aoi!"

"Ah?" Aoi Natsuki just responded without turning his head.

"I've turned on the air conditioner for you. If you still feel cold, tell me."

"okay."

Then nothing happened.

Takahashi Meidu, who was standing by the dining table, looked at Aoi Natsuki who was cutting vegetables in the kitchen with her back turned to her. After a long time, two words came out of her mouth softly: "Baga..."
