Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"Of course!"

Hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka's question, Tsukioka Kaoren smiled and explained:

"Teacher Huang is a very popular best-selling author who just won the Naoki Award. The Naoki Award is one of the most important and valuable literary awards in the Japanese literary world!"

"Eh--"

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu suddenly looked at Emperor Akatsuki at the same time, their eyes becoming amazed.

"Isn't that a very powerful writer?"

"Yes, that's right!"

"Such a powerful Teacher Huang is the ace writer of our "Demon" magazine!"

Seeing their reactions, Yueqiu Xianglian finally showed a satisfied smile, pushed up his glasses, and the lenses reflected a proud light.

It seemed that the conversation started all of a sudden, and then, Yueqiu Xianglian actively introduced:

"Not only that, Teacher Huang is also a famous detective!"

"Detective?"

"Is it the kind of Kudo Shinichi or [Sleeping Kogoro]?"

Hearing what Tsukioka Kaori said, Fujimaru Ritsuka was immediately in awe.

After all, in this world of science, detective is a very valuable title.

However, after hearing what Fujimaru Ritsuka said, Tsukioka Kōren was momentarily speechless and hesitantly said:

"Um, well..."

"That's why I said, there is no need to show off this kind of thing to outsiders."

Huang Gongxiao on the side took over the conversation helplessly and said with a smile:

"It's funny."

"I'm not really engaged in detective activities, and of course I can't compare to those famous detectives. The so-called title of 'Famous Detective' is just a pet name given to me by friends in the circle."

"I'm sorry, Teacher Huang..."

"Forget it, it's not a big deal."

Faced with Yueqiu Xianglian's apology, Huang Gongxiao waved his hands indifferently, and then smiled:

"However, I may not be as good as those famous detectives, but I am somewhat confident in my reasoning."

"That's it."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded clearly, and then introduced himself:

"My name is Fujimaru Ritsuka. If you don't mind, just call me Ritsuka. Please give me your advice next time."

Matthew followed up and said:

"I am Mash Kyrielet. Just like your predecessors, please just call me Mash. Please give me your advice."

Seeing this, Nanfang Rihe also introduced himself calmly:

"My name is Nanfang Hizuru."

"Ritsuka, Mashu, and Miss Nanfang... hello."

Looking at the three beautiful girls with different styles in front of her, Yueqiu Xianglian smiled and nodded and said hello, and then couldn't help but smile in amazement:

"I didn't expect that three super beauties would be added to the team all of a sudden. If we include Renhua-chan, there will be four!"

"If you put it that way, it should be five."

Huang Gongxiao corrected with a smile:

"Isn't Miss Yueqiu also a beauty editor recognized by everyone in the magazine?"

"Hey, me?"

Yueqiu Xianglian lowered his head slightly in embarrassment and said:

"Anyway, thanks for the compliment."

"Praise? I don't mean it that way...but forget it."

Huang Gongxiao looked at the surrounding environment and said:

"The pleasantries are over for now. Let's talk about other things in the hotel first."

After saying that, he left immediately and walked towards the hotel.

…

…

"Speaking of which..."

Following Emperor Akatsuki, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Minami Hizuru next to him, and suddenly remembered that she was also an award-winning author, so he came to Minami Hizuru and asked in a low voice with some curiosity:

"The Naoki Prize or the Edogawa Ranpo Prize, which one is more powerful?"

However, before Nanfang Rihe could answer, the voice of Emperor Xiao from the front quickly came -

"Both awards are the top awards in the Japanese literary world, but there are differences in the selection direction and cannot be directly compared. The Naoki Award is more popular literature, while the Edogawa Ranpo Award is an award for mystery novels. ”

"From this perspective, for us mystery novelists, the Edogawa Ranpo Award is the most important award."

Speaking of this, Huang Gongxiao couldn't help but sigh:

"If you put it this way, I'm still far behind."

"how could be."

Hearing this, Yueqiu Xianglian comforted him and said:

"In that year, you just lost to Mr. Ryunosuke Nagumo."

"I believe that this time, Mr. Huang, your work will definitely be selected!"

Hearing what Tsukioka Karian said, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu who were walking behind looked at Nanfang Hizuru in surprise. They didn't expect that she was so powerful.

Nanfang Rihe's expression remained calm, as if the person mentioned was not her.

But Huang Gongxiao in front sighed and said with a wry smile:

"Miss Yueqiu, do you already know this and are you deliberately making fun of me?"

"Hey, what do you know?"

Yueqiu Xianglian asked at a loss:

"Well, I'm sorry, did I say something wrong again?"

"...No, it's nothing. Just pretend you didn't hear anything."

After confirming that Yueqiu Xianglian did not know the true identity of Nanfang Rihe, Huanggong Xiao could only sigh helplessly and suffer the loss of being dumb.

It was almost dusk, and the five of them came to the hotel restaurant together, found an empty seat, sat down, and started ordering.

At this time, they finally started talking about business.

Huang Gongxiao began to introduce their actions today. As expected, just as Nanfang Hizuru said, they just went to the school to communicate with the school today and allowed them to stay in the school for the next time to investigate.

In addition, all they learned was that the school was taboo about this matter. They didn't want the matter to get too big and wanted to solve it as soon as possible, no matter what method was used.

In addition, in addition to Huang Gongxiao and Yueqiu Xianglian, they also have two companions there.

During the investigation, Huang Gongxiao and another companion needed to teach several classes to the students. During this period, they had to go to and from school with the students and were not allowed to go out at will.

"After all, it is an old and prestigious girls' academy, and there are quite a few rules."

Huang Gongxiao said:

"But originally we had to conduct an investigation in the academy, so it's not bad."

Then, he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"You guys don't look like you can serve as teaching assistants... Then we can find a way to borrow two sets of school uniforms and stay with the students."

"So the assistant teachers are Miss Yueqiu and Nanfang."

"Hey, senior and I are going to be students?"

Matthew blinked in surprise, and then couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Nanfang Rihe had no objection to the arrangement, but Yueqiu Xianglian muttered with resentment:

"There is no need to remind me in this way that I am no longer young..."

After roughly talking about today's situation and tomorrow's arrangements, the dining table fell into a brief silence.

At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka remembered their purpose and decided to ask Emperor Akatsuki:

"Mr. Huang, do you know Mr. Natsuhiko Fukami who works for the same magazine?"

"Fukami?/Natsuhiko-sensei?!"

Unexpectedly, when the name of Fukami Natsuhiko was mentioned, Tsukioka Karian's reaction was much greater than that of Emperor Akatsuki, which made Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but look at her one more time.

Huang Gongxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, showed an interesting look in his eyes, and asked:

"What do you want from him?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka replied:

"It's about the [Zashiki Warashi] in this hotel. It is said that Fukami Natsuhiko-sensei often sees Zashiki Warashi in the hotel, so I want to talk to him."

"Hey, are you also interested in Zashiki Warashi?"

The smile on Huang Gongxiao's face became even wider, and his attitude seemed to become much more cordial in an instant.

Then, he smiled and said:

"In that case, when Shen meets him later, you can ask him directly."

"……Eh?"
