Gotta Go the Healing Route

Chapter 150 The Editor-in-Chief Is Invited

According to relevant statistics, the top ten bad habits of sudden death are: first, bicycling in downtown (inhaling exhaust); second, defecating hard; third, drinking or coffee a lot; , irregular eating habits; sixth, excessive indulgence; seventh, drug use; eighth, active and passive smoking; ninth, eating too salty or too sweet; tenth, sedentary.

The profession of cartoonist can at least be stained with four of the above ten items.

Among the ten occupations most prone to sudden death, novelists, web authors, cartoonists and other creative occupations also rank among the best.

Sudden death is the scariest and worst outcome. In fact, cartoonists also suffered from a series of occupational diseases such as diabetes and cervical spondylosis before that.

Zhicheng's liver disease this time can be regarded as one of the occupational diseases.

Although I couldn't find out what the real liver disease was like from the nurse, the cause of the illness could be guessed without even thinking about it.

Long-term staying up late, fatigue, and irregular diet are the main killers of the liver.

But fortunately, according to the patients walking around this floor, this floor belongs to the mild disease ward, and Zhicheng should be fine.

Feng Jianxi and Wu Shanyun also successfully found Zhicheng's ward.

After knocking on the door, it was a middle-aged woman with a slightly fat figure who opened the door.

The face shape is [-] to [-]% similar to Zhicheng's real person. Kazama Xi and Wu Shanyun also knew the identity of the woman instantly, and bowed slightly to salute.

"Hello auntie."

"You are..."

Seeing two young men who were about the same age as her own son standing at the door with fruit baskets, the woman reacted after being taken aback for a moment.

"Is it a real person's classmate? Come in quickly."

"Mom, is Ya Shu here?"

A familiar voice came from the ward. Judging from the timbre, the owner of the voice seemed to be in good condition.

"No, it's another classmate of yours..." Zhicheng's mother turned around and said.

Another classmate?

Guiye Yashu who was sitting on the hospital bed was slightly taken aback.

Even at school, he was busy drawing, but he couldn't remember any other classmates who were worthy of visiting and friendship besides Guiye Yashu.

However, when he saw the two people brought in by his mother, Zhicheng's eyes widened, and he shouted in surprise:

"Teacher Wushan! Teacher Kazama!"

Subconsciously calling out the honorific title of 'teacher', the face of the real mother, who was originally smiling warmly, froze slightly.Then he turned his head to look at Wu Shanyun and Feng Jianxi and asked, "Aren't you real people's classmates?"

"In fact, we are all colleagues of real people, companions advancing in the same field."

Kazama Xi also saw the change in the real mother's expression, but she still responded calmly and politely.

"Mom, the drip is almost finished, can you help me find the nurse sister to come and change it?"

Seeing that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, Master Zhicheng said, and found a reason to send his mother out.

Zhenren's mother seemed to want to say something to Feng Jianxi and Wu Shanyun, but she still sighed at her son's request.

"Thank you for coming to see the real person, let's chat first."

After saluting and thanking, the real mother left.

Looking away from the back of Zhenren's mother, Feng Jianxi and Wu Shanyun looked at Zhicheng at the same time.

"You seem to be in good spirits, so I'm relieved." Kazama Xi said.

Zhicheng's complexion looked a little sallow, with heavy dark circles and bags under his eyes, but his spirit was high.The exposed conditions are all signs of liver damage, and these signs will gradually dissipate after conditioning.

"Thank you for coming to see me, Mr. Kazama... Mr. Kazama, Miss Wushan." Zhicheng said with a smile.

"By the way, Mr. Kazama, congratulations on the completion of your "Magic Circle", a perfect ending."

A comic has a beginning and an end, and there is no ending or unfinished ending. This is definitely something to be congratulated and celebrated.

"Thank you." Kazama Xi smiled and nodded.

"Where's Mr. Guiye?" Kazama Xi asked because he didn't see Zhicheng's good friend.

"Ya Shu should still be in the studio now. When I was hospitalized, some of this week's manuscripts were still unfinished."

"Is that so..."

Kazamaxi nodded, and chatted with Zhicheng.

During the period, the real mother did not come back soon, and she thoughtfully left space for her son to chat with colleagues.

When Feng Jianxi was chatting with real Zhicheng, Wu Shanyun sat beside him and listened.When Master Zhicheng and Feng Jianxi occasionally turned the topic to something related to her, Wu Shanyun responded with a nod or shook his head, saying very little.

Feng Jianxi also somewhat understood why Wu Shanyun wanted to find someone to come with him.If Wu Shanyun came alone, it would definitely be an awkward chat that would make the air quiet.

After chatting for a while, Zhenren's mother returned to the ward.Seeing this, Kazama Xiya sensiblely got up with Wu Shanyun, ready to say goodbye and leave.

"Then, Mr. Zhicheng, you should take good care of your illness. I wish you a speedy recovery."

"Thank you."

Wu Shanyun also said softly: "Recover well, and look forward to your early return."

Master Zhicheng smiled wryly, and wanted to say something, but when he saw the expressionless mother standing beside him, he kept his mouth shut.

Kazama Xi and Wu Shanyun left Zhicheng's ward together.

Walking on the long corridor of the hospital, Wu Shanyun, who had been silent all this time, sighed: "Mr. Zhicheng..."

Seemingly knowing what Wu Shanyun wanted to say, Feng Jianxi nodded lightly:

"It's a pity, Mr. Zhicheng and the others probably have to suspend publication for a while. That's really embarrassing."

Although suspending journals is not cutting across the board, it is actually more painful and tormenting for ordinary authors than cutting in half.

The competition on jump has always been fierce. If you want to avoid being eliminated, you can only continue to gather popularity, and if you don't advance, you will retreat.

The accumulation of popularity of most authors' works is a long and difficult process.

It is very difficult to accumulate popularity, but it is very easy to lose popularity... such as suspending the publication.

Humans are the most forgetful creatures, and journal hiatus is undoubtedly one of the fastest-decreasing in popularity.

Compared with the direct death of cutting in half, the suspension of publication is equivalent to slow death.

Except for some characters at the level of old thieves and gangsters, even newly promoted cartoonists who have achieved good results will suffer a major blow after the suspension of publication.

For magazines like Kazama Xi and Wu Shanyun, who have a fixed and large fan base, the impact of going off for a period of time is actually not that great.But taking the evil path, although the "Ya Shu Zhenren" who took advantage of the "Death Note" became a little popular, it is different.

"No matter what, I can only wish Master Yashu to return to Jump as soon as possible."

Walking out of the hospital, Kazama Xi concluded, and then looked at Wu Shanyun again.

"What are you going to do now? Go straight home?"

Wu Shanyun shook his head: "I'll go directly to the studio. If you go home, we'll go the other way."

"Yeah." Kazama Xi nodded.

"Then you are alone and pay attention to safety."

Walking out of the hospital, when Feng Jianxi bid farewell to Wu Shanyun and was about to leave, Wu Shanyun stopped him suddenly.

"Mr. Kazama."

Wu Shanyun said seriously:

"Thank you for coming to visit Mr. Zhicheng with me today."

Hearing that Wu Shanyun called him to stop, and seeing Wu Shanyun's incomparably serious expression, Kazama smiled.

"Thank you for that. Even if you didn't invite me, I would come to visit Zhicheng-jun if I knew he was hospitalized."

.............

After parting with Wu Shanyun, Kazama Xi took a taxi and couldn't wait to go home and turn on the air conditioner.In the afternoon, he received another call from Aster Uemura.

"Xi Jun, are you free today?"

Yu Kazama could hear Aster Uemura's tone of voice was quite strange.

"I'm free...what's the matter?"

"Let's have dinner together tonight."

"The editor-in-chief treats you." Uemura Ziwan said.

Chapter 160 No problem

Although the fiery fireball has fallen, the city at night still has nothing to do with the coolness.Because of the climate, Tokyo is very humid all year round, and under the high temperature, this humidity becomes hot and humid.This is the nasty weather that makes people sticky all over after going out.

If possible, in summer, Kazama Yuki would like to turn herself into a complete otaku.But it is obviously impossible.

The editor-in-chief of the No. [-] manga magazine in Kana country treats guests to dinner, which is something to be proud of for manga artists in this country, and Yuki Kazama has no reason to refuse.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Uemura Ziwan came to him on time, and the two took a taxi to a barbecue restaurant.

Although the island country is small, it does not mean that there is no good food, but Kazama Xi found that when she dined with others, the most frequent ones were barbecue restaurants.It can only be said that this country seems to really have a soft spot for barbecue.

Since it is pure barbecue, it must have nothing to do with high-end restaurants.In fact, in many cases, the dishes in high-end restaurants are not as good as those in the corner of the fly restaurant.Especially when faced with the most primitive cooking method of barbecue.

Aster Uemura brought Kazama Xi to this place, and Kazama Xi's first impression was: the barbecue here should be good.

With the erosion of the years, the white walls have turned pale yellow, and there are even traces of blackening everywhere on the walls.The storefront is not too big, there are only eight locations in total.They are all the kind of seats similar to the Northeast Kang style, requiring diners to take off their shoes and sit on them.

All eight seats are occupied, and one seat with only one person is very conspicuous compared to other seats where people are chatting around the grill.

Seeing Akira Kitaoka waving to himself and Aster Uemura who were standing at the door, Yu Kazama nodded with a smile and walked over.

Taking off his shoes, he climbed up to the tatami platform and sat down cross-legged.

In front of him is a very simple charcoal fire grill pot, and a fine wire mesh is placed on the grill pot.Except for the central part of the barbed wire that is used for grilling meat, it has been carefully painted silver, but the black traces on the edge of the barbed wire still show that the barbed wire has been roasted for a long time.

The charcoal fires stacked in the grill emit a crimson light, and the temperature that distorts the air is daunting.Fortunately, the air conditioner in the store is fully turned on, dispelling the heat and humidity brought by the outside, making people feel more at ease.

Uemura Aster still wears OL outfits that make people feel unbearable heat in the hot summer, plus the journey to find Kazama Yushi, the sweat stains on her forehead are much more than Kazama Yushi, and the light makeup is all due to sweat stains Looks a little off.

"tissue……"

Seeing this, Yu Kazama who was sitting next to her took out a pack of tissues from her pocket and handed it to Aster Uemura thoughtfully, and then looked at Kounari Kitaoka who was sitting opposite with her soft thanks.
