Comic cheating, dream-eating life

Cang Shuhong's cheeks were red, and he kept lowering his head and chirping "um, um". ♦♕ ♦ඏ

With her like this, Nan Shiki couldn't stay long. After leaving Xia Nai behind, she prepared to go home and draw the storyboard.

After leaving the accommodation building, Nan Siji saw the supermarket opposite.

Suddenly I remembered that there was not enough dot paper, so I went to buy some.

"Welcome." The cashier girl said boredly.

Nan Jiji's eyes widened: "If you... don't draw comics well, what are you doing here?"

Wu Geng Liuli, the cashier with the black and white stripe system, opened her mouth wide and stared blankly at Nan Siji.

"I'm not from Wugeng Liuli."

She covered her face and spoke louder.

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Nan Siji pulled her hand down.

A snow-white, round face with tear stains appeared in front of him.

"Boss, there's nothing I can do." Wu Geng complained: "Assistants are too expensive, and I have no money, so I can only do odd jobs on weekends."

A high school student came over. He was lined up behind Nan Shiji, holding A3 paper, ink and dots in his hands.

Nan Siji quickly got out of the way.

"Thank you." He nodded, paid the fee, and left with a hesitant stride.

Nan Siji pointed at the other party and asked Wu Geng: "Are there many people like this?"

"Huh?" Wu Geng Liuli was confused for a moment, then nodded: "Compared with before, there are indeed a lot more people. There are more and more people who dream of becoming cartoonists."

"That's it." Nan Siji looked at the door and nodded thoughtfully.

He was about to communicate with Wu Geng about the plot of "Ultraman Leo" when he heard urgent footsteps.

The high school student came back breathing heavily, holding the tool tightly.

"You...are you Teacher Chun Xia Qiu!"

He asked regardless of his words, staring closely at Nan Siji, for fear that Nan Siji would disappear.

Nan Siji smiled and nodded: "I am."

"It's really true, it's like a dream." The high school student pinched his fingers in disbelief, and then bowed deeply to Nan Shiki.

"I am Murakami Katsumi, and I really like... I really like Haruka-sensei's "Kamen Rider Kuuga"!"

He stretched out his right hand and Nan Siji took it.

"The Godai who wants to protect everyone's smile, I long to draw such a protagonist one day," Murakami Katsumi stood up and said excitedly to Minami Shiki: "Because of Mr. Shun Xia Qiu, I also want to become a manga artist. of!"

"Come on!"

Nan Jiji let go of his hand and encouraged him, but still told him about the hardships of the comics industry: "But it is not easy to become a cartoonist, except for some geniuses. Ordinary people may not succeed even if they put in a lot of hard work and effort. .

One in 100,000, only one in 100,000 people in this industry can make a living by drawing comics. Even if the work is serialized or animated, it may be abandoned one day. "

He suddenly thought of Nobuhiro Mashiro, and blurted out: "This is no different from a gambler."

Murakami Katsumi lowered his head and trembled, and Nan Shiki thought he was scared.

Unexpectedly, when he raised his head, he smiled brightly: "I'm very excited, Teacher Chun Xia Qiu told me so much.

It’s just because it’s difficult that you need to work hard now! "

The young man waved his hand, said goodbye, and ran towards the distance of his dream.

"Pfft," Wu Geng Liuli smiled: "It's just as passionate as the protagonist in the comic. It hurts!"

Nan Siji knocked on her head: "Dreams cannot be laughed at."

…

After purchasing manuscript paper and putting it in the car, Minami Shiki called Koji Yoshida.

"Mr. Yoshida, I have something to ask you."

"You said," Koji Yoshida was a little excited, finally taking on the responsibility of editing.

Nan Jiji asked: "Are there more and more comic submissions?"

"Eh?" Yoshida was curious, but didn't ask. He replied, "It's a lot more. Just wait a moment."

He flipped through the computer files and quickly found a piece of information. He shook his head and exclaimed: "You didn't ask me and I didn't realize that the number of submissions in February last year was 357 and in February this year it was 504. It's really an exaggeration. "

"Sorry to trouble you, bye."

Nan Siji stood downstairs in Cang Shuhong's house, hung up the phone, looked up at Cang Shuhong's room, and made a decision.

"Ding Dong."

Walking to Cang Shuhong's door, he pressed the doorbell.

…

"Who is it?"

Xia Nai was eating snacks and drinking black tea. When she heard the doorbell, she raised her head curiously.

"My assistant." Cang Shuhong stood up and walked towards the door.

Xia Nai was curious: "Do you also want to draw comics on weekends?"

Cang Shuhong opened the door, faced Xia Nai and said, "I'm not a good painter, so I have to paint slowly."

"Teacher Cang Shuhong?"

Nan Siji looked at her hamster pajamas, hesitated, and then spoke.

…

In front of the sofa, Nan Siji looked at Cang Shuhong who was covering her face, as if she was back to the moment before.

Next to her was Xia Nai, who was wearing a red and pink bunny pajamas.

Nan Siji pointed at her restless sister and said:

"It must be you."

"That's right." She nodded shamelessly: "What's wrong with dressing like this at home? How cute."

"It's all your fault." Nan Siji glared at her.

Then looking at the ostrich-like Cang Shuhong, I felt that it would be okay to continue like this, and said: "We cartoonists, it is good to have a little childishness. In private, I also play with the hands of Tiga and Golzan Do, "biu!" Biu! "dubbing."

"Really?" Cang Shuhong raised his head and asked timidly with a red face.

"Of course," Nan Siji struck while the iron was hot: "And Teacher Cang Shuhong is very cute!"

He gave a thumbs up and smiled.

But it seemed to have the opposite effect. Cang Shuhong immediately buried his head, and after a while he said in a depressed tone:

"oh."

…

She paused for a long time and could barely hold a conversation.

Nan Shiji quickly explained the reason: "There is a realistic plot in "The Season of Green Leaves", and I also want to draw a comic based on reality, in which Teacher Cang Shuhong will appear. I hope to get your consent."

What Nan Siji wanted to paint was "Dream Eaters".

In order to serialize, animate, and surpass the story of Eiji Shinzuma, mangaka Ajoki Yumeha.

Cang Shuhong became curious and regained her previous calmness: "What's the content?"

Nan Siji said seriously: ""Dream Eaters" is a group of people who chase their dreams and hope to become cartoonists."

"Could it be?"

"Yes, it's everyone from the Fukuda group who was painted."

"I have no objection," Cang Shuhong closed his eyes and shook his head: "Just draw whatever you want."

She drew everything about Nakai threatening her to fall in love with him before they could draw comics together in "Aoba Season".

So I easily agreed.

"Thank you!" Nan Siji said gratefully.

Cang Shuhong asked: "So, who will be the protagonist?"

"Yacheng Mumengye." Nan Siji said.

…

"Teacher Chunxiaqiu, do you think Teacher Ajomu can surpass me?" Eiji Shinzuma stared at Minami Shiki and asked tit for tat.
