Yusaki Nakano did learn to draw for half a year, which is the truth.

The opportunity was that she brought back the book "Basic Hand-drawn Painting Method" when she saw her younger brother attending the art fellowship.

Maybe she is really talented in painting, but she just flipped it around, then became a little interested, and then drew it casually - let her brother who had just returned home grow up with an incredible look on his face.

Therefore, when Higashinoji said that there was something wrong with her painting, she was indeed a little unconvinced.

It seemed that I felt what Nakano Yusaki was thinking. Higashinoji on the other side didn't care, but just said directly:

"Miss Nakano, do you prefer to draw the right side view of the characters?"

He said, and pointed to the drawing on the desktop.

On the desktop, the male character in black and white sketches is looking to the right, with his eyes squinted.

Very well drawn.

But it is also because of the very good painting... Higashinoji can see the problem in this painting at a glance - Akisaki Nakano is not very good at drawing the left side of the characters... Maybe the front picture is also not very good at it.

To be honest, this is actually a very common problem among some Japanese comic authors.

Not only are he not good at drawing left view, but he is also not good at drawing scenes where many characters appear, and is not good at drawing backgrounds.

When they touched on these issues, the space felt chaotic, and the background architecture was full of chaos...

But human wisdom is always endless.

If you are not good at drawing the right side of the face, just draw a left side of the back of the drawing paper - use a little more strength so that the pen can penetrate the paper, then turn the paper over and draw it on the other side with a copy table.

If you are not good at drawing backgrounds, try not to draw backgrounds. If you really want to draw, draw less background buildings.

If you are not good at painting many characters, you might as well just refer to other people's storyboards to copy them - this is much easier.

These are all evil ways of painting, but they are quite useful.

Many comic authors who really cannot overcome them simply use these techniques.

And Akisaki Nakano is probably such a player.

She is not good at drawing left view of characters or paintings with the left side of her body... so she concealed this through various methods.

For example, add something to the character's hand, so that the "center of gravity" of the whole picture will change, and she can draw it more naturally.

Including the picture "Chrysanthemum and the Cat", the short-haired girl held an umbrella and half-squatted on the sidewalk, and the cat was holding a white chrysanthemum in her mouth...

This is the standard way to attract people's attention with reference objects, which makes people subconsciously ignore the unnaturalness in paintings - ordinary people really can't detect it.

But Higashinoji is obviously not an ordinary person, and he can see the unnatural feeling in the painting at a glance.

And Akisaki Nakano had no intention of hiding anything, so she simply admitted: "Yes."

Then she spoke in confusion: "Is there any problem with this?"

The book "Basic Hand-drawn Painting Method" taught a lot, but most of it was on the side, the painting method was close to the big and the far and small. She followed her for a long time and realized that it was not bad, but she couldn't learn the painting method of the front, so she thought of a lot of wrong painting methods to fill this shortcoming.

At this time, Higashinoji was called out... To be honest, she was actually a little surprised.

You know, this is the first time that someone has pointed out this mistake—even the art teachers in her school can’t see her tricks!

But even if it was pointed out, Akisaki Nakano didn't think there was anything wrong with his painting method.

After all, I have developed a habit for a long time...

“It’s a bad habit.”

Higashinoji smiled and said, "Miss Nakano, no animation studio can accept the artist who can only draw side pictures."

"Hey...? No? But... but it's fine for me to keep drawing like this."

Nakano Yusaki opened her mouth, and she pointed to the drawing paper with her fingers, and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice: "On ordinary people can't see it."

indeed.

Her concealment method is very clever. Even Higashinoji can feel the benefits of her "crawling" painting method - it is really time-saving and labor-saving.

but--

"Miss Nakano, you can't always use this method to draw it."

Seeing that she was still a little unwilling, Higashinoji added: "But one day, the studio insists on drawing a front view of the character?"

"The shortcomings are always unconcealed, Miss Nakano."

Higashinoji said calmly.

"Well...I get it!"

Nakano Akisaki did not make any excuses, but just nodded vigorously.

The ponytail jumped out and flicked.

The main reason is that she thinks there is really nothing to justify.

Higashinoji is right.

The shortcomings will be exposed one day.

Things drawn using these evil ways will be exposed one day, and it is definitely not a long-term solution.

So she won't defend herself.

At least one should be upright in life, this is what Nakano Yusaki thinks.

Seeing Nakano Yusaki admit his mistake so simply, Higashinoji felt a little relieved.

At first, Higashinoji felt that this little girl came from Hokkaido so far, so she should be the type of impulse who doesn't go through the brain when she talks and does things, and does it as soon as she gets up, and becomes discouraged.

As a result, it seems... Nakano Yusaki still looks quite rational.

If you reason with her, she will agree as long as you are right.

It’s not like some little girls and boys who are obviously wrong but are unwilling to admit their mistakes, and they are like a child who is stubborn and quarreling.

Since Akisaki Nakano knew the mistake and his own flaws, it would be easier to refuse her next.

Thinking of this, Higashinoji immediately spoke: "Since I have learned about my shortcomings, Miss Nakano should work harder and strive to improve her shortcomings..."

Before he could finish his words, Yusaki Nakano raised his head with bright eyes: "Does Teacher Higashino teach me how to draw?"

"Hmm?" Higashinoji was stunned when he heard the other party's quick answer.

Then he was a little amused.

Why did Akisaki Nakano think about this?

Before he could answer, Nakano Yusaki on the other side spoke again: "Don't Teacher Higashino's studio still recruit original painters now? Isn't there any training for original painters to be taught? I can do it! I can also stay and study...the kind that doesn't have wages."

She was very serious and had no intention of joking at all.

This made Higashinoji a little confused.

According to Akisaki Nakano's painter, even if she accepts her, she will be a background original artist and will be a sure profit from Higashino Studio.

And if it is true as she said, she only learned to draw for half a year...

Then this is a genius painter, and it will definitely be a loss to accept it.

And Higashino Studio does have announcements to recruit original artists.

After all, for the current Dongye Studio, the manpower is just enough.

Not to mention that Akisaki Nakano doesn’t want to pay for his wages... Isn’t this just a waste of work?

but--

Not to mention the situation on Nakano Akisaki's guardian's side, I didn't understand it clearly.

Why is Nakano Yusaki so persistent in Higashino Studio?

Speaking of which, what happened to her ‘repay kindness’?

The water in it has not been clearly understood, and even Higashinoji has not drawn any conclusions.

Fortunately, at this time, Yano Ryuichi, who had just been called out by Higashinoji to investigate the situation of Nakano Yusaki's family, came back.

Yano Ryuichi hurried to Higashinoji: "Teacher Higashino, you have contacted Miss Nakano's family."

His expression was a little embarrassed: "But the situation is a bit complicated... I hope you can go over and take a look."

The situation is complicated?

Higashinoji is inexplicably confused.

What's wrong with this?

A first-year high school girl ran from Hokkaido to Tokyo.

Generally speaking, shouldn’t the family members be anxious?

Still complicated?

Could it be that Yukisaki Nakano's mother can still support her daughter to come to Tokyo alone like Yukisaki Nakano?

Higashinoji was a little confused.

On the other side, Yuki Nakano, who heard Yano Ryuichi's conversation, looked at the other party in a bit incredible way.

I was originally holding a pencil, but with a click, the pencil fell off.

Is society so sinister?

While I was having a heart-to-heart talk with Teacher Higashino, you actually attacked me? Did you call my family?

Despicable and shameless!

Nakano Yusaki was indeed young and had never seen anything more sinister than this. He could only blush and stare at Yano Ryuichi angrily.

"Ahem..."

It seemed that he felt the resentful gaze of Nakano Akisaki, Yano Ryu coughed twice, expressing his hope that Higashinoji would go out to communicate with the other party's guardian.

Of course, Higashinoji didn't hesitate, so he simply walked out and connected the phone to his hand:

"Hey? Hello, I am Higashinoji. Are you the guardian of Miss Akisaki Nakano?"

"Ah...Hello, I'm Nakano Tomoko, I'm Yusaki's grandmother."

Nakano Akisaki's grandmother...?

Shi Higashino thought that at this time, shouldn’t it be their parents who handle this kind of thing?

However, he didn't mean to pay attention to other people's family affairs, but just said simply: "Hello, Tomoko, I am Higashinoji. I guess you should have talked to YanoSan just now, right? What happened to your granddaughter in our studio."

"Yeah. I already know."

The old female voice with a strong Hokkaido accent coughed twice and replied.

Just at this time, Yusaki Nakano also came out. When she heard Himnoji, she hurried to the next to the microphone: "Well! I've already arrived at the place, Grandma Tomoko, Teacher Tomoko is very kind and handsome. She looks like a good person. Don't worry! I will definitely return the favor before I go back!"

Her sudden attack made Higashinoji funny too.

But Higashinoji didn't care about her sudden speaking.

Instead, she simply took advantage of the opportunity of her speech and continued, "Mother-in-law Tomoko, I believe you have heard it too, Miss Nakano is by my side."

"I believe you should be very anxious, Mother-in-law Youzi, too. Our studio wants to contact the local police on your side and send Miss Nakano back... Can you cooperate with our work?"

This is a very official answer.

I sent Yusaki Yuki home, hoping that the other party would help me work together. Generally speaking, I would not be rejected.

but--

"Sorry, Teacher Higashino, I'm really sorry that Saki has caused you trouble... But going to Tokyo is Saki's choice, which is my permission."

"..." Higashinoji.

good.

This is really the same personality as the mother and grandson, which surprised him.

Higashinoji didn't expect that Akisaki Nakano could still obtain the consent of his guardian and came to Tokyo alone.

He was a little confused by this unexpected answer.

After a while, Higashinoji sorted out his emotions and then continued to ask: "Is there any inside story?"

Except for the problems with Akisaki Nakano's family, Higashinoji really couldn't think of any other reason.

"Speaking of the story, Miss Nakano kept saying things like saying "I thought it was just a simple joke... Could it be that there is indeed some reason?"

When Higashinoji asked this.

Not waiting for the other side to answer.

Nakano Yusaki was already touching his head happily and said, "Didn't my "Chrysanthemum and Cat" get the golden reward from P station? Then I got four million yen..."

"Yes." Higashinoji nodded.

"Actually, that four million yen is my parents' burial fee."

Nakano Yusaki said with a smile.

Well...

Looking at Nakano Yusaki's happy face, Higashinoji was stunned for a moment.

Then he whispered: "Sorry, Miss Nakano, I don't know...you..."

He immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Miss Nakano, I don't know...you..."

"It's okay, Teacher Higashino must not apologize, and I actually didn't care anymore."

Nakano Akisaki waved his hand and laughed brightly.

But this time, she smiled and stopped laughing, as if she couldn't laugh anymore.

Soon, she continued to explain to Higashinoji again.

The Nakano family opened a small factory. In Japan, this kind of self-employed small factory is actually very common.

Their family lives a stable but still a bit sad life based on this small factory on weekdays.

Nakano Yusaki and her brother are also quite successful, and their academic performance is pretty good.

But there are unexpected situations in the world.

Just on the way to purchase.

Nakano's parents died in a car accident.

The original small factory could not be operated.

When a person dies, it means he will never see him again.

This is a very normal thing.

The Nakano family is managed by Nakano Yuki's grandmother Tomoko Nakano.

But the problem came immediately.

The cost of the two burial of Nakano's parents.

Although the funeral can be completed with national insurance, it will undoubtedly cost a lot of money.

Originally, the operation of the Nakano Factory can only be said to be average, and it is already very difficult to raise two children and study.

If the insurance paid is spent on the funeral.

Who will pay for the next expenses of Nakano's siblings studying?

Tomoko Nakano is a strong woman and a standard Hokkaido mother.

The death of her son and daughter-in-law made her sad.

But she still said it straightforwardly.

Living people must continue to survive.

The dead person doesn't have to talk about any pomp or funeral...

In other words, if you don’t have money to buy a grave, you will be cremated directly and set up a shrine at home for worship.

At that time, Nakano Yusaki was a little unacceptable after hearing what Nakano Tomoko said.

"At that time, I happened to hear that there was an event on Station P, and you could get four million yen with a gold reward... This is the origin of the original creative idea of ​​"Cat and Dry".
