Chapter 430 The plan in mind

Buzz~buzz~

The phone vibrated unwillingly and made a shuffling sound in the quiet conference room.

Kato Yusuke put down the dip pen in his hand, keeping it away from the comic paper where the ink had not yet dried, and took his cell phone out of his trousers pocket to look at it.

Click on the latest notification message on the lock screen, and the screen will be switched to the Line software interface in the next second.

A contact's avatar is wearing a "1" number badge.

[Senior Shiyu: Hi, are you home? 】

Kato Yusuke picked up a bottle of oolong tea from the table in front of him, took two sips, and replied while leaning on the back of the seat behind him:

——[I went back and am now at the Immortal River Comics Department.]

[Senior Shiyu: At this time... didn't you take a break? 】

【Yusuke Kato:(Thumbs up)】

[Senior Shiyu: What do you mean? 】

[Yusuke Kato: Because I have to hand in the original manuscript. 】

[Senior Shiyu: I’m not asking this, but Yu-chan, you only responded with an expression. Did I bother you? Or are you impatient with me? 】

Kato Yusuke frowned and took two seconds to read the message again, confused as to how to respond.

[Senior Shiyu: Why can’t you read it back? Did I say it right? So which side is it specifically? Are you bothered or impatient? (sobbing)]

"Master of Reading Comprehension" - Kato Yusuke thought aimlessly, and then started to reply.

【What's wrong, senior?】

Outgoing messages are read in seconds.

After three seconds, the other party sent a photo, or a group photo.

Kato Yusuke's pupils shrank, and his dark eyes reflected the scene on the screen.

The protagonists in the photo are him and Shiyu.

The two of them were covered with the same thin quilt. Under the quilt that reached to their chests, they were naked and sleeping in each other's arms.

"Morning for two~" - The text sticker on the photo blocks the key areas, but you can still see the perfect curves of the semi-circular E cup and the white skin.

If you want to describe it specifically, the content in the photo is exactly what a couple should look like.

The boy hugs the girl, and the girl rests on the boy's arm, sharing the same bed intimately.

The picture looks fragrant and charming, making people think about it.

[Senior Shiyu: How was yesterday’s commemorative photo? Do you like it~? 】

Kato Yusuke frowned three points, closed his eyes and carefully thought about what happened last night, confirmed it several times, and finally came to a Christmas Eve conclusion.

His brows relaxed a little, and then his temples began to throb again.

He replied with a headache: [From all aspects, senior sister is too fierce.]

Then he stopped replying.

As soon as I put down my phone, it started vibrating again.

So I picked it up again and prepared to mute it.

And new chat messages also popped up from Line.

[Xintiao Xiang: President, do you want to go to karaoke together? It’s just the two of us~]

Also attached is a photo titled "Daily Lesson".

In the photo, the person involved is wrapped in a bath towel, with wet hair, and a rosy look on her delicate skin. It is obvious that she has just taken a bath, giving people a dewy feeling.

I don’t know why, but Shinjoka has become a lot more docile and enthusiastic recently. She often takes some nice photos and invites him.

Kato Yusuke read the message but did not reply.

In the relationship between the two, this represents rejection, and Shinjoka will be wise enough not to ask any more questions.

The next second——

Buzzing~

One after another, another new message was sent.

[Megumi: Good morning, Kako invited me to buy things for off-campus teaching. It seems that Yamaguchi-san and Takei-san are also going. Does Yusuke want to come with him? 】

"..."

Kato Yusuke looked at the screen and thought about it. The off-campus teaching started the week before the end of the month, and there was still a week left, so he started to reply.

——【I don’t have anything to buy, so I won’t go.】

[Hui: Well... I knew you would say that, but it’s not good to stay at home all the time. You should remember to go out for a walk, right? 】

【Yusuke Kato:(Thumbs up)】

There was an interval of two or three seconds.

【Yusuke Kato: Got it.】

After putting down the phone.

Kato Yusuke began to continue drawing the manuscript. The conversation this morning could not help but come to mind, and he became a little more serious when writing.

After talking to Shiyu, he has been thinking about this matter, and the other party's remarks really made him feel something in some aspects.

At least after paying off the debt, he felt that he should consider other things, so the studio and game planning that had been temporarily shelved came to mind...

While thinking about related things, I continued to write.

that's all.

Kato Yusuke stayed from morning to noon, and then from noon to afternoon.

During this period, except for going to the curry shop downstairs for lunch, I basically spent the rest of the time drawing manuscripts.

With such efforts, the progress of the comic manuscript has been smoothly advanced to the thirteenth chapter.

Since the last submission, he has drawn a total of ten chapters in the past two weeks.

After finishing the manuscript of Chapter 13, Yusuke Kato found Deputy Editor Kimura.

The two people together printed out the manuscripts saved on the USB flash drive, and then brought the manuscripts back to the conference room for him to review.

When he first saw the thick stack of "storyboards" on the table, Kimura was surprised, but it was still within the acceptable range.

However, when he discovered that these "storyboards" were all original manuscripts...

The whole person instantly froze on the seat, and he didn't recover for a long time.

It wasn't until Kato Yusuke called his name twice that he agreed as if he was waking up from a dream, and the questions in his mind blurted out without thinking.

"——Isn't what you have been drawing just now a rough draft????"

Kato Yusuke shook his head and denied: "No, it's the original manuscript. There are 10 episodes in total here. From episode 4 to 13, Chief Editor Kimura can check if there are any problems."

"This, this, this, this, this, this..."

Kimura stared in shock, opened and closed his mouth, and then swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and asked: "Before that, can you allow me to ask a question? Teacher Fujimotoshu..."

"Of course, you can tell me anything."

"Then-huh... may I ask how many words you drew in total during the time you were here just now?"

"Two words."

"In such a short time! Did you make a draft in advance!?"

Kato Yusuke glanced at him, said nothing, and just nodded in response.

Seeing his reaction, Kimura felt a little better, and the expression on his face slowly relaxed, revealing a self-comforting smile.

People only believe what they want to believe and what they can understand.

In any case, he could not imagine that Kato Yusuke could draw a complete two-chapter comic content in a few hours without a draft, unless he was drawing in Natsuki Hachi.

Thinking of this, Kimura quickly lowered his head and checked.

Kato Yusuke didn't rush him, he just sat aside calmly and let him check it while he leisurely drew the manuscript of the next chapter.

Swish, swish,

Swish, swish.

The sound of turning pages and pen movements was heard quietly.

Kimura checked it very quickly. It only took him about half an hour to take a rough look at it. He mainly checked whether there was any damage to the painting. As for the storyboards and plot, he planned to look at it slowly later.

He didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed. The possible collapse of the painting that he suspected did not happen, and the level of painting on each page was the same as before.

On this basis, if there are no problems with the plot, it will basically only need a little editing before it can be published. It will definitely be a qualified comic manuscript.
