Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

After finding the relevant information, Nanfang Rihe read the situation report on his mobile phone:

"The author we are looking for is called Fukami Natsuhiko. He is a horror novel writer."

"A horror novelist?"

"That's right. The reviews of his novels on the Internet seem to be quite good, saying that they use taboos and grotesque descriptions full of terror and extreme cruelty, as if a wanderer crawling back and forth on the ground in the eternal darkness. Despite this, there is no loss of tranquility. beauty of……'"

"Eh--"

"It sounds pretty powerful."

Fujimaru Ritsuka exclaimed slightly, and Minami Hizuru put the phone back into his pocket again and said:

"maybe."

"In short, the other party is probably a writer with fairly good results in the unpopular field of horror novels."

Matthew on the side was more concerned about the point of the problem and asked:

"Ms. Hizuru, can you contact the other party?"

"It's not impossible, it's just more troublesome."

"However, there is a better way now."

Nanfang Rihe pushed up his glasses and suddenly brought up another topic, saying:

"Speaking of which, it seems I haven't mentioned to you yet that the person who invited me is also a novel writer."

Although this is the first time this matter has been mentioned, considering Minami Hizuru's status as a writer, this news is not surprising to Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu.

Seeing this, she only paused for a moment, and then continued:

"Coincidentally, that person happens to belong to the same magazine as the person we are looking for, Natsuhiko Fukami."

"So, you can ask him about the situation later."

This news was indeed an unexpected surprise to them, and the next action plan was quickly determined.

Before that, the three of them put aside their worries for the time being and had a good time visiting and playing in the village.

Yaokan Township does not have any stunning scenery, but it has clean streets, neatly arranged wooden huts, fresh air, and large areas of rice fields, forests and blue skies...

Just such a simple rural scenery is enough to make them feel relaxed and happy after coming here from Tokyo.

Especially for Fujimaru Ritsuka, the anguish and depression caused by the original work could not help but dissipate a lot.

However, Medicine Pot Township is not that big, and they can explore almost all of it in one afternoon.

After checking the time, it was almost dusk, and the three of them began to return to the Azi Hotel.

Fujimaru Ritsuka and the other three walked to the door of Azi Hotel. At this time, two hotel guests, a man and a woman, happened to come back from outside like them.

Coincidentally, this is also a striking combination of handsome men and beautiful women.

The woman has short brown hair and red glasses. Her simple clothes cannot hide her proud figure. She looks like a gentle, intellectual and beautiful woman.

The man walking beside her was also handsome, with exotic yellow hair and blue eyes, and an oriental face. He looked like a noble mixed-race young man.

"...Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Huang. I didn't expect that there would be no substantial progress at all in the afternoon, and it would instead turn into a fan gathering..."

"Well, I have expected this. However, such activities will also help our subsequent investigation, which is acceptable, as long as we don't pester us..."

Seeing the male figure appear, Nanfang Hizuru stopped and stared at him silently.

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu followed Nanfang Hizuru to a stop. They roughly heard the words exchanged between the two, and they also vaguely guessed the identity of the other party.

At the same time, the other party quickly discovered them standing at the door of the hotel.

Seeing Nanfang Rizhe, the man among them raised his eyebrows slightly, then walked up to the surprised eyes of his companions, smiled at Nanfang Rizhe and said:

"It's finally here."

"But you are really leisurely. We are still investigating at school, but you went out to enjoy the mountains and rivers?"

Nanfang Rizhe replied unmoved:

"Anyway, today's action is just a trivial matter such as handing over with school personnel, right? It doesn't matter whether you go or not."

Hearing this, the other party could only smile helplessly:

"That's true. There's no way to refute it."

At this time, the other party's female companion finally reacted and said in surprise:

"Teacher Huang, are they the friends you mentioned in the morning and want to investigate with us?"

"I did say that this morning, but I remember I should have only invited one person..."

As he spoke, he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu beside Hizuru in the south with inquiring eyes.

Nanfang Rihe explained calmly:

"They are my friends, and I am going to take them with me to investigate."

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, the other party looked at the three of them back and forth for a moment, then held his chin and muttered:

"If that's the case, I'm afraid I need to explain it to the principal again... But it doesn't matter if I just watch."

"Well, that's it."

"Eh?"

Seeing that the other party nodded in agreement so easily, the female companion beside her was a little surprised, but she quickly accepted the reality, so she smiled at the three of them and said:

"In that case, let's introduce ourselves first."

"My name is Yueqiu Xianglian, and I am the editor of "Demon", the thriller magazine where Teacher Huang works. Please give me some advice."

After she finished speaking, the man next to her smiled confidently:

"My name is Huang Gongxiao, and I am a mystery novelist. As for the others... I don't need any further introduction, right?"

"Forehead……"

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu couldn't help but look at each other, and then looked at Minami Hizuru beside them with questioning eyes.

"He felt that he was a famous writer, so he should be known by his name."

Nanfang Hizuru explained to Fujimaru Ritsuka and Fujimaru Ritsuka what each other meant, and then said calmly:

"Anyway, you have also seen that this guy has too much self-awareness, so you don't need to pay too much attention to him."

"?!"

Seeing that Nanfang Rizhe dared to speak to Huang Gongxiao like this, Yueqiu Xianglian's eyes widened in shock, and then she quickly looked at Huanggong Xiao nervously.

However, after being accused like this, Huang Gongxiao showed no signs of being angry. He just smiled helplessly and said:

"I don't deny the issue of self-awareness, but it's a bit hurtful to say it like this."

Then, he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu and asked curiously:

"I don't think everyone knows my name, but at least I just won the award some time ago. As long as readers who pay a little attention to the novel industry, they shouldn't not know about me, right?"

"that……"

Hearing what he said, Fujimaru Ritsuka said with some embarrassment:

"Personally, I prefer reading comics, and I also read more light novels, so..."

On the other side, Matthew, who loves reading, also explained:

"I just recently started reading Mr. Kudo Yusaku's "The Count of the Night" Baron series, and I don't know much about the others."

"I see."

Huang Gongxiao was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled helplessly:

"So one is a layman and the other is a beginner? No wonder."

"Sorry, I made the mistake of preconceptions. Seeing that you are friends from the south, I presumed that you were also from the same circle."

"It doesn't matter."

Seeing the kind attitude of Emperor Akatsuki, Fujimaru Ritsuka had a good first impression of him, so she then asked curiously:

"So, Mr. Huang is a particularly powerful mystery novelist?"

Come on!
