A middle school cartoonist

In an open-air coffee shop, Yoshida was frowning, flipping through pages of Makoto Takahashi's manga manuscripts, while Makoto Takahashi was happily eating ice cream, completely heartless. look.

"Takahashi Makoto, can you be more serious?" Yoshida said with a cold face, looking at Takahashi Makoto getting angry, "Now we are not here to eat ice cream, but to discuss your new manga, do you understand?"

"Huh? But if I don't eat dessert, my brain's thinking ability will be reduced!" Makoto Takahashi looked unhappy. He squatted on the chair with his legs curled up and started to play a building block game with the sugar cubes on the table. , "Yakami-san, do you have any good suggestions for finding Kira?"

"If I had that notebook, the first name written on it must be Takahashi Makoto!" After Yoshida complained, he put the comic manuscript on the table and began to elaborate, "First of all, let's talk about the construction of the story. Nothing to be dissatisfied with! ”

"Of course!" Makoto Takahashi said matter-of-factly, "Did you see the name written in the author's column? Lelouch L. Light Yagami! Gather the wisdom of these three people and create The work that came out is already a waste for the purple-haired bastard!"

"Don't get too carried away, kid!" Yoshida's mouth twitched, "What a weird name that is! Forget it, why are you complaining about your name... What's important now is the manga manuscript, the manga manuscript!"

"So do you have any questions about the manga manuscript?" Makoto Takahashi suddenly became serious. This sudden change of personality made Yoshida very unhappy. "If you have any questions, just say it. I forgive you! "

"Huh..." Yoshida took a long and deep breath several times, and began to impose on himself the self-suggestion of "I am the editor". After calming down for a while, he began to point out the problems with Takahashi Makoto's manga manuscript, "The problem lies with the characters! Megumi Noda With Chiaki Shinichi, this is the protagonist of the manga, right? But in the second chapter, the aura of Osaki Nana is so strong and eye-catching! This will give readers the illusion that this woman is the heroine! In a work, the relationship between the heroine and the hero is the key to guiding the entire plot! But the outline you showed me before was not like this! The main plot of what you wrote before was about Noda. The story of Hui trying to pursue her dreams and love!”

"..." Makoto Takahashi was silent, looking at Yoshida blankly as if looking at a rare animal again, "My beloved is a cat. It was only then that I realized that you are really not an ordinary person. You are worthy of being my beloved cat!”

"Is this a boast?" Yoshida was a bit dumbfounded. "By the way, I have a question! Although you only drew the content of the first three chapters, but these first three chapters, what I saw was not one work, but two. ? The story of Megumi Noda and Shinichi Chiaki is mostly funny; but the story between the two girls Nana and Nana is very close to reality and has a sense of reality that happened around me! The works seem to have been forcibly adapted by you and merged together..."

"Oh! Amazing, really amazing, my beloved cat!" Makoto Takahashi admired from the bottom of his heart this time! Yoshida is really a great editor. He was able to spot so many problems after just reading three episodes. He lives up to his reputation as a responsible editor!

"This is just from an editor's perspective!" Looking at the shocked Makoto Takahashi, Yoshida suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction!

That’s right, it’s a sense of presence!

Perhaps for other cartoonists, especially those who have just debuted, the quality of an editor will have a great impact on them! After their debut, many cartoonists either blindly obeyed the editor's arrangements, or even abandoned the original intention and idea of ​​drawing cartoons, and became obedient puppets. Their grades got worse and worse, and they were eventually cut off miserably; Those who are overconfident, never listen to the words of the editor in charge, are completely immersed in a state of feeling good about themselves, and completely ignore the suggestions given by the editor. They may succeed for a while, but failure is a frequent visitor at home.

But Makoto Takahashi gave Yoshida a different feeling!

There are rarely problems in Makoto Takahashi's works. Although sometimes it is difficult for Yoshida as a reader to accept it, at such times, Makoto Takahashi always gives reasonable explanations and tries his best to convince Yoshida! No fuss, no fuss, just a few simple words, and Yoshida, who is both a reader and editor, accepted it completely and was speechless!

Yoshida even has a feeling recently that he is starting to doubt whether he can really be a good editor for Makoto Takahashi! Although this middle-class kid is often in a state of being a middle-class kid, he doesn't need Yoshida's guidance at all when drawing comics. This makes Yoshida feel uneasy!

But looking at Makoto Takahashi's new work today, Yoshida suddenly found a sense of presence, which made Yoshida let out a long sigh of relief. It turns out that this kid is not impeccable in every work!

"So, my beloved cat, what do you think should be changed?" Makoto Takahashi looked like he was open to teaching, which made Yoshida very satisfied. If it's not enough, it would be even more perfect if I could change my name!

"I think something needs to be changed here!" Yoshida pointed to the second episode where Nana appeared. "At first glance, you can feel her strong aura! Such a person is very special, and at the same time he has a strong influence on those around him. People and things have an indifferent attitude, and Noda Megumi looks like the kind of innocent little girl... To be honest, if there are no accidents between two people in reality, they will only pass each other by each other at most, and there will be no accidents at all. What chance is involved! So..."

"So what?" Makoto Takahashi listened attentively, and at this moment he realized that Yoshida, the editor, indeed has real talent and learning!

"So the key point of the story is still Matsumoto Nana!" Yoshida pointed to Nana's close-up drawing and talked eloquently, "Although the characteristics of this character look somewhat similar to Noda Megumi, they are essentially different! According to your The setting is that Nana and Megumi Noda were playmates who grew up together. Then they met Nana on the train and developed admiration and admiration for Nana... So Nana's existence is the most important thing between the three girls. The key existence..."

As Yoshida spoke, he suddenly fell silent.

"My beloved cat, have you been released from silence?" Makoto Takahashi was a little confused, but his eyes were more confused, "Keep talking, how should we design the subsequent development?"

"Think about this kind of thing yourself!" Yoshida looked at Makoto Takahashi with a cold face and a playful smile, "Kid, I am the editor in charge, not a cartoonist! How to draw comics is up to you as a cartoonist. Things you need to consider! If you rely too much on the editor in charge, don’t even think about making progress in this life! So come on, manga artist Makoto Takahashi... No, it’s Lelouch L. Yagami Tsuki-sama!”

"Hey! My beloved cat, who allowed you to look at me like that?" Makoto Takahashi was stunned at first, then became a little angry, "As a pet, you must have the consciousness of a pet. Even if you are a skin god, you must obey Xiaozhi after being recovered. Be careful, I will put you in the elf ball and send you back to your hometown for Dr. Oak to do research!"

It's okay to be unhappy, but...how to change it? Takahashi Makoto has a headache! Indeed, as Yoshida just said, this work has become very strange! It's obviously an inspirational love story about Noda-mei and Prince Chiaki, but because Nana's aura is too strong, the whole plot begins to change in a strange direction...

If Nana's characteristics are changed, the problem may be solved, but after changing Nana's characteristics, will Nana still be the Queen?

It is rare to be able to put Takahashi Makoto into such a situation. This pleasure should be enjoyed! Seeing Takahashi Makoto's confused and speechless expression, Yoshida laughed with satisfaction! Yoshida knows very well that although Takahashi Makoto has been serializing comics for four years, he is still far behind compared to those cartoonists who have been famous for a long time!

"Hahahahahaha, that's it! Why am I limited to the world of comics? You can also use that trick..."

Just when Yoshida couldn't help it and wanted to give a hint, Takahashi Makoto suddenly laughed wildly! Yoshida was a little stunned. Could this kid have thought of it so quickly?

"What are you thinking of? Tell me first!" Yoshida urged Takahashi Makoto urgently, his eyes full of hope and expectation!

"If you want to change the development of the plot, all you need to do is change Nana's aura!" When Makoto Takahashi said these words, Yoshida almost slapped him in the face. Is this what he has been thinking about for so long? Or did you choose the worst path?

"But I don't want to do this!" Makoto Takahashi's words made Yoshida, who looked a little disappointed, light up his glasses, and Makoto Takahashi continued, "Nana is the queen, and this is unchangeable! In this case, then I Just change the narrative mode of comic plots!”

"The narrative mode of comic plots?" Yoshida was a little confused, but he had never thought of this!

"Hmph, that's right. A weak existence like the male protagonist waiting for a hatchet might as well be thrown away like a used rag!" Makoto Takahashi seemed to be caught in some kind of fanatical fantasy, "A heroine If you can’t complete the entire story, then just add two more, the triangle is the most stable existence!”

"Three heroines?" Yoshida was really surprised by Takahashi Makoto's words this time. After pondering for a moment, a glint flashed in his eyes, "In other words, do you want to describe the three heroines through a story? ?”

"Well, that's right, the male protagonist or something, just cut off the unique props and die!"

"Before you curse and complain about the male protagonist, could you please unzip your pants and see if your little brother is okay?" Yoshida looked at Makoto Takahashi with contempt!

But this little guy, this setting sounds interesting! The idea is really bold! Yoshida began to brainstorm the content of the comic. The more he thought about it, the more curious he became. What will the story be like?

"Duan Yu, Xu Zhu, and Xiao Feng! The most classic three-protagonist model!" Makoto Takahashi looked at the horizon with a longing face, "Master Jin, please lend me your power! Let me use that The purple-haired bastard is completely destroyed into tiny particles! Give me strength, Jin Da Da!”

Maybe this kid is waiting to surpass those famous cartoonists and step onto a new stage in the future... Just when Yoshida was thinking this, he heard Takahashi Makoto's low murmur.

"With Jin Da's help...hehe, the purple-haired offal will be blasted to pieces, hehe, cut into pieces of meat and fed to Dingchun..."

"By the way, how much resentment do you have towards Makaino Koji?" Yoshida looked at Takahashi Makoto, whose smile began to collapse and gradually turned evil, and shook his head with a puzzled look on his face, "Also, who is this Jin Dada you mentioned?"
