Is this cartoonist mentally ill?.

Chapter 514 A sudden awakening
"Ah this?"

Lin Qingshan was surfing the Internet intensively, and was reading the post-production comments of a certain UP master named Pan Zijun about "EVA".

As a result, I saw some familiar comments in the comment section:

"Ikari Shinji: I really admire you, Nagisa Kaworu. I think I will never forget you in my life."

"Without even a moment to mourn the death of the Bird Angel, the next one to arrive on the battlefield is... the sixteenth Angel - the Womb Angel!"

"Seele: Will you win? Kaworu Nagisa: Yes, you will win."

"Unit-01: Kaworu Nagisa, you are just an ordinary apostle who has never encountered my rampage."

"Unit-01: Power Angel, you are the challenger!"

……

These comments in the comment area were directly liked and pushed to the hot comments, and the following were all jokes -

“Hahahahaha, when will I be able to see this meme without laughing?”

“A tribute to the most powerful shockwave sorcerer in legendary history—2.5 Satoru.”

"It was indeed a shock wave, it was said to be so powerful, and then it was cut in half by Sukuna."

"Nagisa Kaworu's crime is not serious enough. It can only be said that he did not want to die. Even if Unit-01 goes berserk, Shinji Ikari cannot kill him."

"Really? I don't want to live anymore. I'm different from 2.5 Satoru!"

……

After seeing these comments, Lin Qingshan almost thought he had traveled back in time.

But soon, he checked the app on his phone and found it was called Station C, not Station B. He immediately realized and said, "No, I didn't go back!"

"Is it possible..."

Lin Qingshan quickly searched for information related to Jujutsu Kaisen, and sure enough, information and news about Jujutsu Kaisen appeared.

"Explosive! Gojo Satoru was cut in half by Sukuna! Fans are dissatisfied!"

"Another famous comic book has been exposed, and the author of the comic book actually has another identity!"

"Akutami-ge no Mikoto's illness has relapsed, and the reputation of the old thief Aoyama has been damaged!"

"Famous memes appear one after another! Gojo Satoru becomes 2.5jo Satoru!"

……

Lin Qingshan immediately went to watch the latest episode of Jujutsu Kaisen again. Seeing the familiar plot, he finally believed it...

Akutami Yuta really made the same mistake again!
Repeating the creative path of the one-eyed cat teacher, the reputation of "Jujutsu Kaisen" was completely brought down from the altar.

"Is this... the historical inertia that also exists in parallel worlds?"

Lin Qingshan frowned and said, "Even if I can't influence others?"

This really makes one doubtful. After all, he originally thought that "Protoss" would not have such an ending, but in the end, such a plot was repeated.

At the same time, in his previous life, the author had voluntarily stopped updating "The Dragon Clan", but in this world's "The God Clan", it was passively cut off, so there was no subsequent story.

Now, Yuta Akutami has repeated the same mistake, causing the criticized plot of "Jujutsu Kaisen" to reappear.

Even though Lin Qingshan had taught me carefully before, as a cartoonist I must be responsible for my work and for the fans.

But Yuta Akutami still drew this plot like a madman.

However, Lin Qingshan is not sure... Does Akutami Yuta think that such a plot will be very exciting, or does he simply hate the character of Gojo Satoru as the one-eyed cat teacher said in his previous life?
Um, why would a creator hate the characters he or she created?

It would be fine if he was a villain, but isn’t Gojo Satoru a decent supporting character?
It was just like Lin Qingshan in his previous life didn’t understand why the creative team of “Iron-Blooded Orphans” hated the protagonist’s camp and ended up strangely arranging for them all to be killed.

In fact, he also didn’t understand why the one-eyed cat teacher in his previous life hated Gojo Satoru and killed the character in that way...

But no matter what the situation is, Lin Qingshan feels that as Akutami Yuta's "teacher", he should still understand the situation and then persuade him.

"Since I have some free time, why don't I just go visit Yuta."

Lin Qingshan slapped his head and made the decision.

He planned to go to Akutami Yuta's house in person and have a heart-to-heart talk with him to ease his stress.

At this moment, his cell phone received another call from Ito Ayumi...

……

Akutami Yuta's dirty and messy apartment has not changed much.

Ever since he found out that the guy had gotten married without telling his fans, he couldn't accept it and made a mess of the apartment.

However, he felt a lot better after he drew the plot in which the annoying character Gojo Satoru, who was created based on that guy, was cut off.

Finally... I feel a little relieved.

But he was still very angry. After all, that guy...how could he get married?!

Moreover, they got married very early and kept it a secret from their fans.

So Akutami Yuta was still full of anger, so he planned to continue drawing the next plot and completely turn that annoying guy into a clown!
And because he didn't want anyone to disturb him, he turned off his cell phone, refusing to allow Ayumi Ito or those comic fans to bother him and hinder his creation.

But just as he was immersed in his angry creative inspiration...

"jingle--!!"

There was a ring from the doorbell outside the apartment.

Yuta Akutami originally planned to ignore it, but the doorbell at his door was a smart one, which allowed the visitor to pass on the message into the apartment.

Then he heard a familiar voice -

"Moshi Moshi! Yuta, are you there? I'm Lin Qingshan!"

Is it...the teacher's voice?
Akutami Yuta, who had originally planned to ignore the idea, began to hesitate a little.

He still had great respect for Lin Qingshan. Lin Qingshan had taught him a lot and was really good to him.

Lin Qingshan treated his three assistants very well at the beginning. Not only did he provide them with full benefits, he also helped them often and gave them significant guidance.

For example, Wu Shiqing's painting skills have improved significantly, and Lin Qingshan provided a lot of help at the beginning.

In addition, they also solve the problem of meals at Lin Qingshan's home, and Lin Qingshan will also take them to any book signing events or activities.

It is for this reason that Akutami Yuta sincerely respects Lin Qingshan, especially in the creation of his "Jujutsu Kaisen", Lin Qingshan provided a lot of help at the beginning.

He also made use of Lin Qingshan at the beginning. "Jujutsu Kaisen" took advantage of Lin Qingshan's popularity and borrowed the "vortex" setting.

At the same time, he also gained huge traffic as Lin Qingshan's "disciple".

Lin Qingshan certainly feels that even if Yuta Akutami's "Jujutsu Kaisen" does not take advantage of any popularity, it is a popular work that is destined to be a hit.

But Akutami Yuta is unsure and doesn't think so.

In short, he felt that Lin Qingshan’s guidance and help were indispensable to his achievements today.

So he respects Lin Qingshan very much.

Now that Lin Qingshan is here, how could he possibly turn him away?

then……

"Hi! Yuta!"

The door of the apartment in front of Lin Qingshan was opened. He looked directly at the haggard Akutami Yuta and greeted him, saying, "Teacher..."

Akutami Yuta looked at Lin Qingshan and greeted him respectfully, but then he saw... Lin Qingshan was holding bags of... food in his hands?
"Thinking it's noon, maybe you're hungry too?"

Lin Qingshan said with a smile, "So I plan to borrow your kitchen."

"Teacher, how can this be possible?"

Akutami Yuta was very embarrassed, but he helped Lin Qingshan take the food and said, "Teacher, please go in and sit for a while."

Lin Qingshan also took the opportunity to walk into Akutami Yuta's house.

It was not the first time he came to Akutami Yuta's house, but... it was the first time he saw Akutami Yuta's house so messy.

The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the messy curtains, casting patches of light onto the table covered with drawings.

The room was filled with a mixture of ink and coffee. The ground was littered with waste paper, and the walls were covered with sketches and labels, some of which had turned yellow.

The bookshelf is piled with comic books and reference materials, and several commonly used paintbrushes are scattered on the carpet, as if telling of the owner's busyness and messiness.

Every piece of furniture in the house was occupied by drawings and tools. There were several small holes on the sofa cushion poked by pen tips. The water cup on the coffee table was dry, with tea leaves scattered around it.

In one corner of the room, laundry was piled up, its colors blending in with the environment and making it almost unrecognizable.

It's almost hard to find a place to stay...

Akutami Yuta felt even more embarrassed and scratched his head.

"Forget it, I'll go cook first, and we'll have lunch together later."

Lin Qingshan didn't care at all and said, "Yuta, just clean it up first!"

"Okay! Teacher!"

Akutami Yuta did not refuse at all and agreed directly, then he started cleaning the house.

Lin Qingshan carried the ingredients and went to Akutami Yuta's kitchen to cook.

……

After Lin Qingshan prepared the three home-cooked dishes and a soup, Akutami Yuta also spent more than an hour cleaning up the house.

Even the half-torn poster on the wall was completely taken down, but... the garbage did not actually disappear, but was piled on the balcony.

"Yuta! Come on, let's have lunch!"

Lin Qingshan then brought out the food, placed it on the table, and said.

I saw a casserole with soup bubbling in it, with a few slices of wolfberry and chopped green onions floating on the surface of the soup, emitting bursts of fresh fragrance.

On the plate next to it, the bright red tomatoes and tender white tofu are perfectly combined. The fresh color and fragrant aroma make people salivate.

Next came the plate of stir-fried seasonal vegetables. The green leaves were interspersed with golden corn kernels, which was fresh and delicious, giving people a sense of vitality.

The last dish is home-style tofu, with a golden outer skin and tender tofu core, fried to perfection, and even more fragrant after being drizzled with sauce.

Although the three dishes and one soup are not rich in color and aroma, they will greatly increase people's appetite.

Lin Qingshan's cooking skills are naturally unparalleled among those who know him.

Akutami Yuta also liked the food made by Lin Qingshan. When he looked at these tempting dishes, it seemed that all the irritability and anger he had felt in the past few days disappeared.

"Come on, eat."

Lin Qingshan sat down directly and, like a host, invited Akutami Yuta to sit down and eat.

"is teacher."

Yuta Akutami sat down and began to enjoy Lin Qingshan's craftsmanship.

"Haha, eat more."

Lin Qingshan smiled and said, "But I don't know if these dishes suit your taste. I bought the ingredients and made the dishes according to my taste."

"It's okay... there's nothing I hate."

Akutami Yuta quickly said, "And the teacher's cooking skills are very good."

"Yuta, actually, creating and cooking are the same."

Lin Qingshan suddenly changed the subject and said, "Generally speaking, the works and characters created by creators... especially the positive characters, are like the ingredients you buy. No one would buy ingredients they hate, right?"

"So creators shouldn't hate the positive characters they create, right?"

When Akutami Yuta heard this, his happy expression, which was originally showing that he was enjoying the food, slowly dimmed.

"Teacher, do you also think that I shouldn't have drawn this plot like that?"

He raised his head and said somewhat unwillingly.

"As a creator, you should consider the fans."

Lin Qingshan sighed and said, "Although we shouldn't blindly follow the fans and have our own creative ideas, the fans' opinions are sometimes very important."

"And I really think that Gojo Satoru's characterization in this plot is not good. It completely destroys the character you created for him before."

He continued to look at Akutami Yuta and said sincerely, "So I actually want to know, Yuta, what do you think? Do you think this plot is exciting? Or do you simply... hate this character."

"Yes! I hate this character!"

Akutami Yuta spoke directly, saying with some hatred, "This character deserves to die so tragically, like an arrogant clown who knows nothing!"

"But... why?"

Lin Qingshan looked at him and said, "Is it for your own selfish desires, to vent your anger? It's like..."

He suddenly took out a small box, which contained spicy red chili oil, and then put it all into the pot of casserole fish head soup that Akutami Yuta liked very much.

In an instant, the spicy red oil covered the entire pot of soup.

Yuta Akutami is Japanese, so he never likes spicy food and can't eat spicy food.

"Would it make you happy if I did that?"

Lin Qingshan's expression was somewhat serious, and he said, "You are letting the fans go through this just for your own ideas! Don't you think the fans will not be angry?"

Seeing the bright red fish soup, Akutami Yuta seemed to feel the feeling of someone suddenly disliking something they really like.

Yes, he was happy, but what about the comic fans?

Just because he hates that guy, should he make the comic fans who love his works so much feel bad?
"I was wrong, teacher."

Akutami Yuta immediately choked up and said, "I know I was wrong!"

"Do you know you're wrong?"

Lin Qingshan's expression turned kind and he said, "It's good that you know you're wrong... It's not too late to repent now."

Finally...has he changed the ending of the original story?

"Teacher! I'll go back and revise it right away!"

Akutami Yuta took a deep breath and said, "I will go back and modify the plot to revive Gojo Satoru!"

"Eh?! Wait!"

When Lin Qingshan heard what he said, he felt something was wrong and quickly stopped him.
