Teacher Higashino doesn’t want to submit the manuscript, right?

The editor of Oshima subconsciously thought, but quickly shook his head and wiped it away.

You should know that Higashinoji's comics have never been serialized for anything since their debut. This is Higashinoji's golden sign. He can't just smash his signature because of this simple personnel change, right?

Besides, Hosokawa Koharu is not coming back

The editor of Oshima thought about it the more he felt it was unlikely, so he shook his head, thinking that he probably was too sensitive and thinking too much.

After all, he just got the news and became the editor of Higashinoji, and was immediately notified that he was a nanny, who was entrusted with Hosokawa Koharu. At that time, he would have to return Higashinoji directly, so he started to think about it.

Moreover, the author Higashinoji has always been very time-honored and rarely works. Oshima editor is very confident in Higashinoji.

So the next thing is to take the initiative to call Higashinoji to ask for the original manuscript, or wait for Higashinoji to call and go to his house to pick up the manuscript?

Generally speaking, a mature editor naturally needs to take the initiative to call the author and ask about the status of the manuscript.

But Higashinoji is not like a mature printer, just like there is a saying outside that is 'Keyboard, you should learn to mature, you should learn to code by yourself', a mature comic author like Higashinoji does not need to urge him, and will continue to spit out original manuscripts.

The most important thing is that Higashinoji is the author of the pillar of Urashima Publishing House. Unlike other comics, he has just taken over Higashinoji. If he calls to urge him, it would be a bit inappropriate.

So the editor of Oshima was about to wait for a while and wait for Higashinoji to call him.

Then two hours passed

"No call!"

No call

The editor of Oshima touched his head: "This is unscientific."

Teacher Higashino didn't really call?

When he chatted with Hosokawa Koharu in the past, Higashinoji would often call him on his own initiative. His different treatment was too different from that of Hosokawa Editor, right? It was simply no news.

Is it because I am a male editor?

The editor of the Big Island waited, the less confident he was, and he was obviously a little crazy.

But soon he cheered up again.

"According to general principles, this should not be the case. And Mr. Higashino is a mature author, so of course he will not benefit from the issue of the issue."

Thinking of this, the editor of Oshima became confident again, and he felt that he was OK again.

"That's right! I want to have confidence in Teacher Higashino!"

He murmured to himself.

Then two or three hours passed.

"No call, there is no intention of calling."

The editor of Oshima stared at the company's landline phone with red eyes, and he felt much more haggard.

Two phone calls came just now, but those two phone calls had nothing to do with him, and they were the phone calls from other authors who came to submit the manuscript.

He couldn't help but grab his hair and glanced at the time again.

It is already five or six o'clock in the afternoon, and it will take until evening to hold on. I have to get off work myself.

"It's better to call." The editor of Oshima originally wanted to shout, "I want to believe in Teacher Higashino," but it was already five or six o'clock.

The editor Hosokawa next to him was also not here because he went to talk about handover affairs.

The editor of Oshima can only take out a telephone contact book from his desk.

Every editor has this thing in his hands. It mainly contains the contact information of the comic author who is serialized in "Qi" and of course Higashinoji's name is also very prominent on it. It is directly placed on the first page and can be regarded as the treatment of the author of the pillar, so it is very easy to find.

The editor of Oshima quickly found Higashinoji's contact information and dialed the phone a little uneasy.

He is now afraid that Higashinoji won't even answer the phone.

Fortunately, Higashinoji did not disappoint the editor of Oshima this time. Before he could hear the blind sound twice, he immediately answered the phone: "Hey? Who is it?"

His tone was also quite kind, which made the editor of Oshima more or less confident.

The editor of Oshima breathed a little: "Hello, Teacher Higashino, I am the editor who is responsible for you for the time being, Oshima Homoto."

"Ah, it's Oshima editor." Higashinoji said in a daze: "Urjima editor has already told me about Oshima editor's affairs, so please give me more advice."

The other party smiled and said hello, which made the editor of Oshima even more relieved.

Teacher Higashino is indeed a reasonable author. At least he didn't scold him directly as Oshima editor imagined.

He felt relieved, so he smiled and said, "Since Teacher Higashino has accepted me as the temporary editor, I also want to fulfill my responsibilities as the editor. Can I get the original manuscript of "Unnatural Death" now?"

After saying this, the editor of Oshima kept smiling and waiting for Higashinoji's reply.

And Higashinoji there did not hesitate at all and quickly responded: "Sorry, editor of Oshima, I just came back from a trip, and the original manuscript of "Unnatural Death" is not ready yet. Can you please wait?"

Higashinoji's voice sounded a little embarrassed.

Why?

Not ready?

After hearing Higashinoji's words, the editor of Oshima was stunned.

This is the first time I heard

In the past, when Hosokawa Koharu received the manuscript, he basically made a phone call and agreed on the time. After all, will the original manuscript really not be prepared by a printer like Higashinoji?

But to be honest, I didn't have so much time to prepare after just returning from a trip, and I still have a lot of things to pack

The editor of Oshima cannot deify Higashino. He really feels that he has the ability to "spout" the original manuscript from his mouth.

So he quickly asked: "The death line of "Unnatural Death" is the day after tomorrow. Can Teacher Higashino hand over the original manuscript to me before the day after tomorrow?"

When publishers print magazines, they need to send the original manuscript and specific design to the printing factory first, and printing and release will take time. The deadline is something that barely step on this timeline.

After hearing this, Higashinoji over there did not hesitate and replied politely: "Sorry, editor of Oshima, I will try my best to complete the original manuscript before the deadline."

The editor of Oshima took the opportunity to communicate with Higashinoji. After talking throughout the article, he felt very comfortable.

Because Higashinoji is so good at speaking, in a sense, he completely satisfies all his fantasies about the author as an editor.

Be polite, polite, not embarrassing, reasonable, and speaking in moderation

This kind of fame is too rare to have an author without any pride.

"Sure enough, Teacher Higashino can still believe it."

The editor of Oshima became confident again and muttered happily, turning around to prepare for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

He felt that he would give a good impression when he first met, so he planned to take out the formal outfit he had not worn through and was going to go on a blind date.

Although it was not a blind date, seeing Higashinoji was like half a kiss!

Make sure to make money!

He thought happily.

A big man was so happy that he was like a little girl who wanted to meet her boyfriend.

Then

"He didn't call"

If the other day, Homo sapiens Oshima was like a little girl waiting for her sweet first love, smiling at everyone, looking like a spring breeze.

Today, Oshima Homo sapiens is a middle-aged woman who is as sensitive and irritable as entering menopause.

He stared at the landline he placed on the desktop and fell into melancholy for a moment.

As an editor, of course he knew that it would be impossible to wait for the author to get news, but no matter how he called him in the past two days, Higashinoji was laughing and fooled by him with a smile.

What an emergency? The school has come to inform him to show up. It’s inconvenient to make him appear now. There’s no time. It’s still a little bit late.

In short, there are all kinds of reasons.

But what made the editor of Oshima the most helpless was that when Higashinoji said these words, there were sometimes some sounds of mahjong shooting there.

"bump!"

"Don't eat mine!"

This is the voice of several girls.

This gave Oshima editor a little headache.

You have started playing mahjong, don’t you have time to prepare the original manuscript of “Unnatural Death”?

But the editor of Oshima is not able to expose the other party. After all, Higashinoji showed this attitude, and it was obvious that he did not want to submit the manuscript.

And he didn't know how to blame the other party, because Higashiji was very friendly to him, and he always smiled from beginning to end, and never said anything rudely.

"Let's call." Although there was no hope, the editor of Oshima picked up the phone and called Higashinoji.

"Hey? Big Island Editor?"

"Teacher Higashino, today is already deadline. How is the original manuscript of "Unnatural Death"?"

"Ah, you said the original manuscript of "Unnatural Death". "Taiji Higashino's voice suddenly realized: "Sorry, editor of Oshima, can you give me some more time and more time, it will definitely be done."

This is what the editor of Dadao often hears the comic authors who have delayed the manuscript say that the first day said that it would be completed, the second day said that it was almost progress, and the third day said that it would be able to catch up with it if you have a little more time.

But he had never expected that one day he would hear such words from Higashinoji's mouth, only the author who dragged the manuscript said.

There was no choice but to respond to Higashinoji. He stood up and walked to the chief editor's office after the phone was hung up.

Recently, the editor-in-chief Urajima has always felt a little restless. Although he repeatedly asked Hosokawa Koharu to be the editor-in-chief of Higashinoji, the leadership has never given any feedback.

This makes people like him very uncomfortable.

But no matter how uncomfortable it is, you still have to do the work you should do well.

In a few days, it will be the date for "Aversion to Chill" to be released again.

If the last year was the year when "Aversion to Cold" regained the dignity of the three major comics, then this year was the year when "Aversion to Cold" returned to its peak.

The weekly magazine "Aversion to Cold" has been rising from a continuous decline to its current decline, and has even vaguely suppressed the momentum of several other major publishing houses. All of this has been calculated to be Higashinoji, who has been constantly producing high-quality works.

"Unnatural Death" even raised this craze to a higher level.

And because the plot of "Unnatural Death" has reached its climax recently, many readers are looking forward to the next development, so Higashinoji's situation can be said to be extremely important.

"But I can also understand Teacher Higashino's mood to finish it."

Editor-in-chief Urajima sighed.

When Higashinoji was unwilling to draw a sequel to "Midnight Bell", Urashima Editor-in-Chief actually discovered it.

Higashinoji is the kind of author who really wants to create good works. Every manga is completed neatly and does not drag it out at all. This is a rare thing in the comics industry. Many comics writers try hard to maintain serial qualifications after becoming famous, because as long as they maintain serial qualifications until the single-line version is published, comics writers can make a lot of money.

That's real money! A temptation that no comic book writer can refuse.

But Higashinoji just doesn't take the ordinary path.

No matter what comics you have, you will never hesitate when it is time to finish and will never continue paintings.

To be honest, the editor-in-chief Urajima is actually particularly admired by such people who have no feelings for money and just want to pursue higher levels.

He can only say that he can help as much as possible.

"It's useless to think about so much. The most important thing now is the serialization of "Unnatural Death".

It seems that the editor of Oshima has been reporting these days that Mr. Higashino has not handed over the original manuscript on time?

Just when Urajima Editor-in-Chief was about to go out to inquire about the specific situation.

The door of his office was already knocked. At the same time as he welcomed people in, the editor-in-chief Urajima heard the other party's words.

"Uramiya Editor-in-Chief, Higashino's "Unnatural Death" may be temporarily closed this week."

This can be said to be an opening lightning strike.

Editor-in-chief Urajima couldn't react.

After a while, he understood the meaning of Oshima editor's words and couldn't help but frown.

He had never expected that Higashinoji would delay the manuscript.

"What's the specific situation?" asked the editor of Oshima.

The editor of Oshima could only helplessly tell the editor-in-chief of Urashima word by word.

Higashinoji's attitude was very clear, obviously he didn't want to submit the manuscript, and he looked like, "Don't you want to finish it?"

After listening to the explanation of the editor Oshima, Urajima's editor-in-chief felt a little painful in his head.

He never thought Higashinoji would take such a method.

And it just happened to be stuck in the deadline

"What should I do next? Editor-in-chief Urashima?" The editor of Oshima asked next to him.

He is also considered a victim of being involved in innocent people. If the editor-in-chief Urajima blames him for his poor communication, it would be a big problem.

Urajima editor-in-chief rubbed his temples: "There is no other way. Today I will hand over the scanned data to the printing factory. "Unnatural Death" can only be temporarily closed."

"Do you really want to close the publication?" The editor of Oshima was stunned.

He would never ask such stupid words in normal times, after all, the leader made the decision.

But "Unnatural Death" is closed

This can be said to be a first-class event in "Aversion to Cold".

That's a national comic.

If the release of the article is really an impact on "Aversion to Chills" will be extraordinary.

"This is also impossible."

Urajima Editor-in-Chief shook his head.
Chapter completed!
