A middle school cartoonist

Chapter 397 Sense of Urgency

After Yoshida ended the phone call with the editor-in-chief at Makoto Takahashi's home, Makoto Takahashi made it clear that if the editor-in-chief could not accept the [letter announcing the suspension of publication], then the reasons that Yoshida had previously rejected would be used as the manga's " CLANNAD" suspension announcement is submitted... Even though Yoshida has the urge to facepalm at Makoto Takahashi's weird notice letter, but in real comparison, this can be regarded as the best result!

So Yoshida ended the call with the editor-in-chief, and after a few hurried words with Makoto Takahashi, he rushed to the base camp on the editorial side of the monthly magazine!

"So...Editor-in-Chief, it's pretty good that Cheng can give this reason!" Yoshida was arguing with Sasaki, the monthly editor-in-chief. As for the point of argument, it was naturally about the copy submitted by a certain middle-class cartoonist. The most bizarre [announcement of discontinuation of publication]! Looking at the frowning editor-in-chief, Yoshida also realized that something was wrong with his tone, so he slowed down and said helplessly, "As I said to you on the phone before, if you don't agree, I can be sure that Cheng’s weird [announcement on discontinuation of publication] will be even weirder in the next [announcement of discontinuation of publication] given by Cheng. For example, there will be a message [to destroy the aliens attacking the earth]. For example, [go to a phone booth, wear clothes and underwear outside and transform into Superman to save the world] or other inexplicable reasons..."

This is definitely not alarmist, because Takahashi Makoto can definitely do such a thing... Although it is very difficult for Yoshida to be caught between Takahashi Makoto and the editor-in-chief, Yoshida still tried his best to explain the situation to the editor-in-chief in his own way. !

"Well, is that the case..." The glasses reflecting the fatal light covered the editor's eyes, making Yoshida opposite him not know for a moment what the pensive editor was thinking. He crossed his hands and clasped his chin. , the editor-in-chief entered the exclusive thinking mode of [Lord Commander]. After a long silence, the editor-in-chief sighed quietly and said in a helpless tone, "In that case, then... let's publish this announcement!"

"Oh, thank you very much, Commander... ahem, Editor-in-Chief!" Yoshida was so excited that he almost called out the title of Editor-in-Chief behind his back. Fortunately, he responded in time, and Yoshida's ordinary words were still ignored After changing it, he said, "Then I'll take my leave now, editor-in-chief!"

"Yoshida!" The editor suddenly called out to Yoshida who was about to leave, and then slowly said after a long silence under Yoshida's anxious gaze, "Do you still remember what happened before Acheng Mumenye? Three months ago. Within the time limit, I will try my best to complete the content required for a weekly series... Huh!"

"Uh... Editor-in-Chief, you mean..." Although Yoshida didn't react at first, after noticing the worry between the Editor-in-Chief's brows, he still thought of the key point of the problem, "Are you worried that Acheng will do something too much? Are you trying so hard that your body can’t bear it? Editor, don’t worry, in terms of physical strength, that guy Cheng is truly a demon king!”

What's more, opening his mouth to stop Makoto Takahashi who is so desperate... This is disrespectful to a middle-class cartoonist!

Although Yoshida said this, after leaving the monthly editorial base, Yoshida rushed back to Takahashi Makoto's house as soon as possible! On the one hand, he told Makoto Takahashi that the suspension announcement has been confirmed, and on the other hand... he naturally warned Makoto Takahashi not to be too desperate! Since some things cannot be stopped, then at least... at least control the possible disasters within acceptable limits!

Although this is not the first time Yoshida has persuaded Takahashi Makoto; although Yoshida's previous attempts have ended in failure; although Yoshida will try his best to persuade Takahashi Makoto every time he goes to Takahashi Makoto's house. The reason... However, this time, Yoshida has more confidence than before! After all, this time, the position of persuading Makoto Takahashi to take a good rest is no longer limited to the position of a friend, but also has the obligation of being the responsible editor of the manga!

It was already approaching evening when Yoshida felt that he was at Makoto Takahashi's house! Looking at the ajar door, Yoshida was a little confused, but he didn't think too much, and didn't knock first as usual, but directly chose to enter!

As expected, the scene of Makoto Takahashi sitting at the table with a tired look and frantically completing the manga manuscript did not appear! Yoshida, who directly broke into Takahashi Makoto's barrier, saw Takahashi Makoto hugging Rina. The two of them were watching the animation and whispering something... and watching their faces getting closer and closer, Yoshida didn't need to think too much, he knew that the timing of his entry was quite bad!

"A-Cheng... uh..." Although Yoshida also wanted to stop his mouth in time this time, the situation was different from before at the editor's base camp! Yoshida suddenly broke in and successfully disturbed the two people who were preparing to perform some kind of [ritual]! Although Yoshida has realized that he entered the room at a bad time, even though Yoshida can feel the murderous aura coming from Takahashi Makoto without looking, even though Yoshida himself knows that it is too late to say anything now... But out of respect for himself Apologizing for his reckless behavior, Yoshida still had to bite the bullet and stammered an apology to Takahashi Makoto! "That, that...hug, sorry! Yes, it's me, I'm here, the time is wrong!"

Like a frightened little rabbit, Rina suddenly jumped up from Takahashi Makoto's arms. At the same time, she pushed Takahashi Makoto from the sofa to the ground. After saying hello to Yoshida with a blushing face, she said: He ran back to the room at an extremely fast speed!

"Tsk! Witch Rina is really... like a shy little animal!" Takahashi Makoto got up from the ground as if nothing had happened, gently patted his white coat, and showed a helpless and doting smile on his face, "Using a huge force to hit the head can make people forget some things they shouldn't know, or at worst, kill them and throw the body into the sea... So there's no need to be shy if you're seen!"

"Hey! I've already apologized... Damn!" Yoshida felt a chill immediately after hearing Takahashi Makoto's horrifying words in a grinning tone! Just when he was about to say a few words to defend himself, he felt a chill on his left face, followed by a burning sensation! "Ah Cheng! I have already apologized sincerely, so..."

"Humph, a human's apology... is the most insincere lie!" Takahashi Makoto slowly pulled out the deflected magic sword, and his face, which was smiling just now, was now filled with murderous intent, "My dependent cat, tell me, how many parts do you want the body to be divided into? Considering that you are a dependent cat, this king specially recommends retaining a certain key part of the seventeen parts... Although as a corpse, they are all the same, but at least you can retain a certain key part and die as a [male]. This is also a special gift to you, right?"

Of course, if Takahashi Makoto really killed Yoshida, it is estimated that this book will enter the plot of [Honkai Impact 3rd]... However, Yoshida, who interfered with Takahashi Makoto, although escaped the fate of death, was forced by Takahashi Makoto holding the magic sword to drink a cup of strange-tasting... solution?

"…Speaking of which, Cheng, what did you just let me drink?" It was hard to describe the taste of what I drank before, but what surprised Yoshida was that after watching him drink the strange solution, Takahashi Cheng stopped asking about what happened before, and instead sat down at the table and began to seriously draw the comics!

"I don't have time to explain to you now, there is still a lot of content to be completed for "CLANNAD"..." Takahashi Cheng's answer made Yoshida very dissatisfied!

You only know that time is tight now? Didn't you have time to watch anime with Rina-chan just now, and even prepare to play [Kissing Game] or something? If it weren't for the fact that Takahashi Cheng was now seriously completing the comics, Yoshida would definitely have the legendary [Midwife Ritual Theory] (Note 1) with Takahashi Cheng, and used the [Anti-Golden Rule] (Note 2) to taunt Takahashi Cheng once!

"Speaking of which, Cheng, I wanted to ask you before..." Yoshida suddenly felt a little hot and dizzy, but after shaking his head gently, this feeling dissipated! "If you follow the normal serialization, wouldn't you have plenty of time? Why do you push yourself like this? Although considering that the rest of CLANNAD is published at once, the effect is good in a sense... But don't you think it's tiring and hard for you to do this?"

"My beloved cat... As expected, you are destined to be an editor in this life!" Takahashi Makoto paused with the brush in his hand, and after a long sigh, the stagnant brush began to fly on the manuscript again, "Manga artists... What about real manga artists? They spend so much energy and time to complete comics. What is it for? Money? Fame? It can't be like this..."

"At least Hiramaru-kun is like this..." Yoshida pulled the corner of his mouth inexplicably and started to dismantle it directly!

"No, my beloved cat! Little Otter is not such a person!" Makoto Takahashi did not agree with Yoshida's evaluation of Little Otter. He explained while drawing comics, "After Little Otter's comic "Otter No. 11" was animated, Little Otter has been able to live a well-off life. Moreover, with the popularity of the animation, Little Otter not only gained a good reputation, but also won the heart of Miss Aoki Hong... In a sense, Little Otter, who has already returned with a full load, can stop drawing comics, right?"

"Humph! Now Hiramaru-kun still insists on drawing comics, isn't it because..."

"Is it really because of you, my beloved cat? That's not right..." Makoto Takahashi put down his brush, walked to Yoshida with a smile, and gently patted his chest, "The real reason is because of this... I want to continue drawing, keep drawing!"

"Is that so?" Yoshida began to feel that the figure of Makoto Takahashi in front of him was shaking... The world he was in seemed to be distorted!

"Watching others working hard, watching others persevere in something... Although good results have been achieved, I can still feel the unwillingness and resentment here!" Takahashi Makoto put his hand on his chest, ignoring Yoshida who was already in a trance, restrained the smile on his face, and said calmly, "It doesn't matter if you have a cheat code or a very high talent... Tsk! Has your consciousness begun to become trance?"

"In the end..." Yoshida felt his tongue numb, and it was very difficult to speak...

"Oh, it's worthy of Sebastian's secret [Super Divine Water], the effect is really..." Takahashi Makoto gently pushed Yoshida down on the sofa, and sighed with a complicated expression, "Compared to those who are truly talented, compared to those who work hard, I can only gain an advantage by relying on the cheat code! Hey, my cat, if I don't try my best to find a way to compete with them... In the end, I will be far behind them!"

Because of Sebastian's secret [Super Divine Water], Yoshida was completely drunk and unconscious, unable to answer Takahashi Makoto's words! However, the witch who had fled early because of shyness before, after listening to someone's monologue, gently closed the door...
