I am the master of depressive comics

Chapter 57 Octopus Pi’s original sin is coming to an end

When Kamiya Yu observed the girl, the girl also observed Kamiya Yu, thinking silently in her heart.

[Is this Mr. Kamiya? His appearance is as outstanding as his talent. He is indeed a special person! ]

When the two people's eyes slowly met, the girl seemed to have thought of something, her brows lowered with a sad expression, and she hurriedly walked out as if running away.

"That...wait."

Before Kamiya Yuu could take a few steps forward, the girl's figure had disappeared. Iida Ayano beside her looked at the direction where the girl disappeared and spoke slowly and softly.

"It's so cruel! Sakurajima's manga industry."

"That girl must have lost the election."

Hearing Iida Ayano's last words, Kamiya Yuu seemed to have thought of something. He couldn't change anything and could only sigh helplessly. It may be pity for the girl, it may be lamenting the cruel reality, or it may be both.

To become a manga artist in Sakurajima Country, you must first pass the screening and become a serial manga artist.

After this, a more cruel reality came. You need to work hard enough not to be eliminated by the rest of your peers. Even if you work hard, you may get poor grades and face the risk of being cut in half.

In addition, if the performance of your comics deteriorates, your manuscript fee will be continuously reduced, and you will become a miserable person who can barely make ends meet.

Kamiya Yuu stood there for a moment, and after saying goodbye to Iida Ayano, he took the Shinkansen and headed home. When Kamiya Yu arrived home, it was getting dark. He looked at the time and saw that it was about 7 pm.

"Mashiro, I'm back."

Kamiya Yuu walked inside and kept calling Shiina Mashiro. Hearing Kamiya Yuu's voice, the girl walked out of the room.

"Yu, you're back."

When Shiina Mashiro saw Kamiya Yuu, she ran towards him quickly, then opened her arms and hugged Kamiya Yuu tightly.

Seeing Mashiro's actions, Kamiya Yuu didn't know how to place his hands, so he had to put the things in his hands on the ground, gently touch her little head with his right hand, and made a soft sound.

"Am I back now? I asked you to have a good meal this afternoon. Have you eaten yet?"

Uh-huh~~

Shiina Mashiro made an unclear sound, and slowly loosened her arms holding Kamiya Yu. Hearing Mashiro's tangled voice, Kamiya Yuya understood everything.

"Sit there obediently. Stop drawing comics now. Your eyes are all red and swollen."

oh

Shiina Mashiro opened her mouth into an O shape and appeared in the living room with a hesitant tone, but Mashiro still listened to Kamiya Yuu's words and sat on the tatami obediently.

There was a crackling sound in the kitchen, and before Mashiro could wait long, Kamiya Yuu brought a bowl of noodles and placed it in front of Shiina Mashiro.

Suck it~~

"Yu, it's delicious."

"I hope you're talking about noodles and not me. After all, I'm not good at eating."

"Also! You must eat well next time. Really, you will become like this if you don't supervise."

Kamiya Yuu spoke with a hint of reproach in his voice, but his tone was still gentle.

"Yu is my keeper, am I a pet?"

Shiina Mashiro raised his head, looked at Kamiya Yuu in front of him, and asked softly. Hearing this, Kamiya Yuu hurriedly spoke.

"This kind of thinking is wrong. Mashiro, you have to learn to be independent."

"Independence?" Questions appeared on the girl's face, slightly dull.

"Forget it, you'd better eat noodles well. I will teach you slowly later."

Um

After that, Kamiya Yu stayed quiet and watched Mashiro finish the food. After all, he was afraid. Halfway through the meal, the child suddenly had a new idea in his mind and went straight to draw comics.

----------------(Time flies by)

Thursday, July 15th.

Daisho Ishida is the editor-in-chief of Manga House, responsible for reviewing the weekly comics review copywriting of his editors.

"This comic is worthless. Why do you want to comment on this low-quality comic? Is Tanaka a fool?"

"Oh, Teacher Mengye's Romance Academy this week is still as perfect as before! This review can be published."

While Daixiang Ishida was chanting in a low voice, he kept moving his hands and signed his name on the last page of the article.

[Go on, I hope there are other works that can make my eyes shine]

Just when Daixiang Ishida was thinking this, suddenly, a manuscript under the Romance Academy attracted his interest. Ishida Daixiang picked it up and uttered a few big words in his mouth.

[Octopus Pi’s Original Sin—Kamitani Xu]

"The name is very attractive!"

"Kamiya Xu? This name is a bit unfamiliar. It should be a new author."

Daixiang Ishida slowly flipped through the copy in his hand. During this period, exclamations and praises continued, making their voices heard outside the door. Time is passing by slowly, and soon I will see the review of Chapter 13/14.

Regarding the plot of episode 13, it is the finishing touch of Kamiya-sensei, who explains why Octopus will appear next to Kuze Shizuka.

Dongjun left Jinna because of Shizuka Kuze. During the quarrel and pushing with her mother, she accidentally killed her mother, causing her spirit to completely collapse.

"Octopus, please kill Shizuka Kuze, who is in the fourth grade of elementary school, so that I won't feel sad."

"Okay, Marina-chan, wrap it around me."

After that, Octopus Pi returned to the Happy Planet and met Shizuka ten years ago at the cost of memory.

........

"This turn, this idea is so perfect, it makes the whole plot connected."

"What happens next? Will Octopus Pi recover his memory..."

Ishida Daisho continued to flip through the pages with this thought.

The plot is that due to the death of Marina, Dongjun's family fell into a quagmire, and Dongjun had to part with Octopus Pi. During this period, Dongjun expressed his gratitude to Octopus Pi, thanking it for letting him and Shizuka spend a wonderful time together.

"Octopus Pi, bye"

"Dongjun, bye"

Octopus Pi waved its pink tentacles in response to Dongjun's farewell.

Spring goes and autumn comes, the seasons change, and Octopus Pi has been sitting on the pipe in the park, waiting for Shizuka's return.

————————————

In Tokyo, two young children disappeared mysteriously and no trace can be found. The children's father posted a self-blaming comment on SNS.

————————————

"Finally I see you, Shizuka."

"I have something to say to you..."

On the last page of the manuscript, Shizuka Kuze's messy short hair, combined with her dark pupils, makes people feel that there is no life at all.

The manuscript ends here, but Ishida Daisho can't calm down for a long time. He is still immersed in the atmosphere of sadness.

"A comic that can trigger readers' emotions is really a good work!"

Ishida Daisho put down the manuscript in his hand and whispered to himself slowly.

Octopus Pi

Farewell to Dongjun

A friendly look
