"Editor Hosokawa, how was your negotiation with Mr. Higashino?"

As soon as Editor-in-Chief Urashima saw Koharu Hosotani come in, he couldn't help but ask.

It was supposed to be the words of a superior questioning a subordinate, but paired with the TV set with a big chain tied around him, it always made people laugh.

"Everything has been discussed. His follow-up plot is quite complete, so there won't be much problem with serialization."

Koharu Hosotani responded first, and then she looked at Editor-in-Chief Urashima with some hesitation: "Editor-in-Chief, I have a question for you."

"Huh? What's wrong?" Chief Editor Urashima tilted his head.

Koharu Hosotani is an outstanding editor recruited by the publishing house. He is enthusiastic about work, not afraid of new things, and most importantly, very confident.

Therefore, Editor-in-Chief Urashima will still reach out to help her wherever she can.

"I want to ask, are all new authors like this? No need for editorial guidance or assistants at all, and they can draw good-looking comics by themselves?"

Facing Higashinoji, Hosotani Koharu fell into deep self-doubt.

ah?

Editor-in-chief Urashima was stunned: "No matter which author needs to grow up together with the editor, it is impossible for one person to grow wings and fly into the sky."

"Is there really someone who is born with wings and can fly...?"

Hosoya Koharu raised his head in confusion and said stupidly.

"How is this possible?" Editor-in-chief Urashima smiled sarcastically.

He also saw Higashinoji from a distance just now. He was a very young man.

But this kind of young man must be the type who likes to show off his strength.

I guess he has some talent in comics, and then he said a few words to Koharu Hosotani, such as "no need for editing" and "no need for a manga assistant to help draw the background".

But how is that possible?

This is not because Editor-in-Chief Urashima looks down on Higashinoji.

On the contrary, he also looked up to Higashinoji very much.

After all, a young man painted such a good work as "The Ring".

But the more this happened, the editor-in-chief Urashima realized how impossible it was to save time without the help of an editor or a manga assistant to draw the background.

Because there is a lot of pressure to maintain serialization at Urashima Publishing House.

If you want quality, the speed will decrease; if you want speed, the quality will decrease.

Higashinoji still wants to maintain the quality of "Midnight Ring" with such a careless attitude? How is this possible?

Editor-in-chief Urashima estimated that Higashinoji was still too young and had the arrogance of a young man, so he said such things to Koharu Hosotani.

At this time, it is true that it is still necessary to dampen the enthusiasm of young people in order to make Higashinoji become more mature.

So Editor-in-Chief Urashima thought of a good idea.

"Editor Hosokawa, let me tell you a way."

Editor-in-chief Urashima coughed and said, "You can ask Mr. Higashino about the completion status of the manuscript three days before his next submission."

"Teacher Higashino without the help of a manga assistant will definitely not be able to complete high-quality manuscripts on his own. After you ask, Teacher Higashino will probably understand his mistake and will definitely apologize. He will also need your guidance and assistance from the manga assistant."

He had a good idea, and he had even imagined Tonoji being embarrassed to apologize to Hosokawa Koharu on the phone.

This will not only dampen the unnecessary arrogance of the young man Tonoji and make him more mature, but also restore Hosokawa Koharu's confidence in the editing profession, which is a good thing.

Editor-in-chief Urashima thought about it and felt that this was a really good strategy, similar to Zhuge Kongming in China's "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"Really? This...is really good."

Hosokawa Koharu immediately understood what editor-in-chief Urashima meant.

If this can help Higashino understand the importance of editors and comic assistants, it will be considered a profit.

And there are also three days of free time, which allows Higashinoji to free up time to draw "The Ring".

Hosokawa Koharu suddenly regained her confidence and cheered up.

I planned to call Higashinoji after a few days to let him know that editors are not so easy to fool.

Even if she is a new editor!

...

During lunch break the next day, Higashino Si sat at his desk and thought about the plot behind "The Ring".

The manuscript for the second episode of "Midnight Ring" is almost finished, but "Cold" is a weekly, so Tonoji still has to consider the specific storyboards later.

He was eating and thinking, and then he heard Hou Yuanzhong's voice next to him.

"Higashino."

"Hmm? What's the matter? Gohara-san?"

Goharazhong was different from usual today. Instead of hanging out with his girlfriend, he looked at Higashinoji with an incredulous expression.

After a while, Goharachu patted Higashinoji on the shoulder and said meaningfully:

"Although I'm very happy that you can get over the shadow of broken love, Higashikata, I didn't expect you to be such a person. Just after breaking up with Mamanaka Asami, you fell in love with Takahashi Yumi from Class D."

Huh? What's the fuss about?

Who is Yumi Takahashi?

Higashinoji thought about it and confirmed that he had no memory of this person before he asked funnyly: "Gohara-san, who is the Takahashi Yumi-san you are talking about?"

"You're still pretending to be stupid." Goharazaka pouted, assuming that Higashinoji was pretending to be stupid: "Anyway, Takahashi-san is looking for you, right outside the door."

Tonoji looked in the direction of Goharachu's mouth and saw a girl with a single ponytail peeking into the classroom at the door.

This girl has a good appearance, a sense of righteousness between her eyebrows, and a long ponytail swaying behind her back. She looks very youthful and energetic.

Higashikata took a look.

I really don't know him.

But since the other party is looking for him, he has no choice but to follow him out.

So Tonoji stood up and walked towards her.

Takahashi Yumi had noticed the boy in the corner a long time ago. When she saw him standing up, his face dropped, and he opened his posture, looking like he was about to fight, and then spoke directly:

"Are you Higashinoji?"

Um?

To her, it was like a line the villain asked the protagonist in a movie.

Higashino was stunned, then smiled and shook his head: "No, I am not Higashikata."

This little girl inexplicably looked like she was going to fight with him when they first met. Of course, he wouldn't ask for trouble.

"Ah? You're not Higashinoji? Where did this cunning and despicable villain go? He didn't even stay in the classroom. He must be a guy with a dark personality."

Takahashi Yumi glanced into the classroom unwillingly, and in a few words, she identified Higashinoji.

Si Tono, who was listening beside him, just smiled and asked her politely: "Do you have anything to do with Tono? I am his friend. If you have any questions, I can bring him to you in time."

"Are you friends with Higashinoji?"

Takahashi Yumi turned to look at Higashinoji in front of her with a suspicious look.

She came here this time to avenge Konoe Ryoka.

Because Konoe Ryoka had been restless these past two days, when she asked why, it turned out that it was Higashinoji's fault again.

This allowed Yumi Takahashi to come up with millions of words of bloody plot.

After being played by a scumbag, Konoe Ryoka always gave up, and she was bullied and didn't dare to speak...

Anyway, all kinds of bloody plots are applied to Konoe Ryoka.

After finishing her thoughts, she suddenly reached out and patted the shoulder of Konoe Ryoka, who looked incredulous, and vowed, "I will help you get revenge."

As a result, after being in Class A for so long, I didn’t find Higashinoji. I only found Higashinoji’s friends.

This made her very angry——
