Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?

Parasyte received 2215 votes. When this data appeared on the screen, more than a dozen editors of the main publication department hissed in surprise almost in unison.

But everyone knew that this was not a sign of surprise at the terrifying nature of this boy, but a statement of the minister's accurate prediction.

Everyone looked at the pseudo-minister of the main publication department, Hayato Hyakki.

The reason why he was a pseudo-minister was naturally because he had been suspended and was no longer in the nominal position.

But the real power was still in his control, at least in the short term.

"Hahahahahahahahaha——" Hayato Hyakki laughed triumphantly.

No one dared to interrupt, and the laughter echoed in the basement office of the main publication department for a long time.

How long has it been since the minister laughed triumphantly?

Some senior editors knew that the last time he laughed so long was because he had cheated a young cartoonist to put his single book on the shelves.

Newcomers who offended the minister would be punished. This has been the rule of the main publication department for many years. The editors did not even need the minister to say anything, and they would serve on his behalf.

As for the old people who have offended the minister... the newcomers who have offended the minister have no chance to become old people.

The old editor began to formally analyze the popularity list: "Ahem, the above data is as you can see. The last two in popularity are "Himeshi Kumaruden" and "Girl Killer". Of these two works, please give a warning to the editor for the latter. The former has been ranked in the last two twice. If everyone has no objection, please ask the editor in charge to inform the author to finish it within two issues."

A young editor nodded heavily.

The comic he followed was cut off, which was not only a blow to the author, but also very painful for the editor.

The old editor raised his glasses and continued: "Then the third from the bottom is "Parasyte". Please edit... uh..."

He suddenly realized that this work was sent directly to the web department for typesetting and printing, and there was no editor.

Hyakki Hayato suddenly spoke, with pride in his words: "Tell the web department! "Parasyte" has been warned to be cut off!"

"Hi!" The old editor bowed.

At this time, Hyakki Hayato received a call.

"Hello? Kazuki Kosuke, hahaha, the popularity ranking is out, your votes are more than twice as high as Oda Shingo! He only has more than 2,000 votes, and you have more than 5,000 votes!"

Hayato Hyakki was talking loudly on the phone, not avoiding anyone in the main publication department.

Everyone listened quietly, and the meeting was suspended.

His authority was constantly being demonstrated, and even if he was not in office in name, he would not tolerate any provocation.

Katsuki Kosuke's laughter was faintly heard in the microphone: [I said he just took advantage of public opinion, and that guy is not good in terms of real ability! ]

"Yeah, yeah! How can that guy compare with you, a genius?" Hayato Hyakki laughed happily again, and Kazuki Kosuke on the call also cooperated very well to brag about the business.

Hayato Hyakki hung up the phone with satisfaction, and then reminded an intern editor in the main publication department: "Go make this list into a sign and post it in the elevator!"

An editor immediately flattered: "Your decision is great!"

Hayato Hyakki laughed again.

"Wait, wait a minute, then, that..." The editor who uploaded the data just now suddenly spoke.

Although his voice was timid, his expression seemed to have something to say.

The old editor asked, "What's wrong?"

"Uh, the voting data from the web department has been synchronized..."

The web voting data is the votes of readers who subscribed to the electronic version of "Jump" on the Internet. Since it also costs regular fees, and it is not a subscription to a separate comic, but the electronic version of the magazine, the voting rights should be consistent with the physical voting card.

However, the popularity votes of web subscriptions have never been very high, and are almost the same as the physical voting tendency, so it has little impact on the popularity vote. In addition, it is not the data processed by the magazine department, so it has not been taken seriously.

The old editor said, "It's just a few hundred votes. What, did it shake the last two positions?"

"That... not a few hundred votes."

"Huh?"

"The last issue had less than 500 votes, but this time there are more than 4,000 votes! I don't know what happened. I thought it was wrong, so I sent it back to the web department for rechecking, so I didn't put it up with the physical votes just now."

What happened? Why did the popularity of the web site increase tenfold? !

The old editor hurriedly asked: "Why are you saying it again now?"

The young editor plucked up the courage to say: "The web department replied to confirm that the data is correct, and also sent the background verification points. I asked the technical staff to check it, and there is indeed no problem, so I hurried to say it."

The old editor was sweating a little, and he vaguely realized something.

"You, don't tell me that more than 4,000 votes are..."

The scene was quiet.

All editors, including Hayato Hyakki, stared with wide eyes.

The old editor swallowed his saliva and continued to ask: "Aren't they all from Parasyte?"

The young editor was a little courageous this time, and shook his head: "Of course not all, a total of 4,798 votes, of which 4,476 votes are from Parasyte."

Hiss——

Many editors at the scene made a similar hissing sound as before.

The physical votes for Parasyte were only 2,215, but after the online votes were added, it would be as high as 6,691!

This will rank at number 2, just behind "notouch"!

But "notuch" is the work of Adachi Yutaka, the comics master of Qunyingsha for more than ten years! He has been ranked first in popularity votes for many years, but this time he was touched on the butt?

All the editors' eyes were focused on Hayato Hyakki again.

"..." Hayato Hyakki stood up and came to the young editor's computer. After carefully confirming the accuracy of the data, he chuckled: "Don't panic, this guy took advantage of you."

He began to tell everyone the reason.

"The double benefit of the first serialization allowed Oda Shingo to take advantage of 4 consecutive episodes."

"This kind of reading continuity is very comfortable, which leads to many comic fans like to vote for him."

"Also, due to the aftermath of public opinion last time, many people claimed to be righteous and voted for him."

"By the way, more importantly, Oda Shingo started from the Internet, so many comic fans came from the Internet and naturally like online voting."

"So, it is very normal for him to take advantage of the popularity vote this time! Don't make a fuss!"

Hayato Hyakki looked calm.

All the editors nodded. It sounds reasonable!

The intern editor who was ordered before asked at this time: "So, the stand is printed with the full version of the data, right?"

"..." Many editors cast sympathetic eyes at him.

This guy's internship period will not last.

"Baka!" Hayato Hyakki grabbed a wireless mouse on the table and threw it over.

He returned to his office angrily.

Oda Shingo! You took advantage of me this time!

However, at this time, Oda Shingo was being taken advantage of.

Oda Shingo's studio.

Bedroom on the second floor.

The girl put force on her hands, and the boy seemed to feel a little comfortable in pain.

"Does this friction feel okay? Will it be too strong and hurt you?" Namikaze Yukaku's face flushed slightly, and asked Oda Shingo, "This is my first time helping someone, and I don't know how to control the force."

Namikaze Yukaku wiped the sweat off the shirtless Oda Shingo.
