A middle school cartoonist

Because a certain editor-in-chief has appeared at his home quite frequently recently, Makoto Takahashi expressed that he was not surprised at all when he saw Yoshida outside the agreed time for collecting manga manuscripts...

But today's situation is a little special!

"Well, Cheng, we came here today to ask for your help..." Before Yoshida could finish his words, he was interrupted by the surprised Takahashi Makoto!

"Eh? Damn it! Are you...is this the rhythm of the end of the world?" Looking at the man and woman standing in front of him, Takahashi Makoto was so frightened that he threw his paintbrush aside, stood up in panic, opened the drawer, and said to himself He said comfortingly, "Calm down! At this time, you should use the time machine... No, going back to the past doesn't seem to be able to avoid the end of the world, right? So the world line should be changed!"

"I mean Cheng...what are you surprised about?" Looking at Makoto Takahashi's strange behavior, Yoshida thought for a moment and roughly guessed what Makoto Takahashi was thinking... ...Then his face, which had been normal just now, immediately turned horribly gloomy, and he shouted angrily in a cold voice, "Hun Dan! Do you think I am that kind of fate?"

"My beloved is a cat. Although your fate is not as brutal as the legendary [Tiansha Lone Star], you definitely don't have the exaggerated femininity of the [Girl Pickup Guy] Kamijou boy..." "Takahashi Makoto stopped his secondary act of [looking for a time machine to change the world line] and patted Yoshida on the shoulder sympathetically. Regardless of the mixed look of embarrassment and depression on the other person's face, he comforted him in a tone full of pity, "So A guy like you who is [destined to live alone] actually brought a girl to the [Devil King Phoenix Academy's Fierce Realm Barrier] today... According to the setting of [the world is in turmoil, evildoers will appear], what is the end of the world? I’m afraid it’s coming soon, right?”

"...I'm so sorry that I'm not destined to be a woman! I'm so sorry that I've been single until now!" After a brief silence, Yoshida gritted his teeth and let out a roar that made the women around him laugh wildly...

Speaking of Yoshida's brief silence before... was it a normal reaction to being unable to accept the "truth" for a while? Or are you accumulating energy for the [Roaring Skill] later?

"Ah haha, Phoenix Academy Kouma-sensei is indeed as interesting as the rumors!" The woman who followed Yoshida glanced at Yoshida strangely and let out a hearty laugh, "But Phoenix Academy Kouma-sensei, you misunderstood! My relationship with Yoshida-senpai is not what you imagined..."

"Huh? Senior?" After Makoto Takahashi repeated the key words revealed by the other party, a look of disgust immediately appeared on his face, and he spat dissatisfiedly, "Hey! It turns out that you are not the plaything of My Familiar Cat, but He’s a lackey of the organization!”

"Eh? Plaything? This statement is really..." The woman looked at Yoshida who looked innocent after hearing this, and instantly felt that the atmosphere became a little awkward... In order to ease the sudden embarrassment, the woman asked in a low voice like changing the subject, "Yoshida Senior, does the organization that Master Jiuzhen of the Phoenix Institute refer to..."

"Alas..." Yoshida sighed helplessly, and nodded with a wry smile, "It's just as you thought! The so-called organization refers to the weekly editorial department, and we, the responsible editors who are affiliated with the weekly editorial department, They are so-called lackeys...according to the setting of that guy Acheng!"

"Hmm... that's the situation!" Makoto Takahashi ignored the low-pitched questions and answers from the two editors in charge, took out his mobile phone from his white coat and continued talking on his own, "Yes! The other party's intelligence officers have already Found...rescue? Humph, it's not necessary at all! It's just two [Five Scum]...Well, I'll tell you the details after I complete the magic seal of [Cannot communicate with living people]! CONGROO!”

"...As you can see, this is Makoto Takahashi, who is called the "evil cartoonist" by the editorial department. The Phoenix Academy is really fierce!" Yoshida saw Takahashi Makoto at the end [with unknown After the phone call, I started to give a brief introduction to the juniors around me... Although I really wanted to add a supplementary introduction of "This is what everyone calls the second grade manga artist", but I saw Makoto Takahashi rummaging through the box. , Yoshida’s mutual introduction naturally cannot continue!

"A-Cheng, this is...uh...by the way, what are you looking for?"

"Oh, I found it!" Makoto Takahashi took out a small black notebook that both of them were familiar with, then with a smile that read [pleasure] and [evil] on his face, he picked up the pen beside the table. , asked the already somewhat dull woman next to Yoshida, "So... what is your name?"

"..." Looking at the well-known black notebook in Takahashi Makoto's hand, the woman who came with Yoshida fell silent, and the smile on her face became stiff...

"Hey, hey, Cheng, that kind of thing... is just a figment of your own imagination in the comics! Don't scare the newcomers in our editorial department like this!" Yoshida complained with some dissatisfaction, "Okay, it's a joke. That’s it! This person next to me is..."

"A joke to scare people?? Humph, my beloved cat, you seem to have said something outrageous!" Makoto Takahashi laughed inexplicably, closed the small black notebook in his hand, and then picked up the table. He turned on the remote control and switched the TV channel, "Now please open your eyes and take a good look at...the other side of this world!"

There happened to be a piece of news broadcast on TV about criminals taking hostages...

"The suspect's name is..." Makoto Takahashi wrote down the suspect's name directly on the small black notebook in his hand in front of the two editors in charge, and then pointed to the clock on the wall, revealing an expression that made him break out in a cold sweat. With a smile, "My beloved cats, are you ready? There are still forty seconds..."

Forty seconds is very short. If the computer usually stores a large amount of things that cannot be mentioned or described, this time is not enough to turn on the computer... But for Yoshida and the new editor at this moment, these forty seconds Seconds, every second is so tortured!

Under the watchful eyes of Yoshida and the new editor, forty seconds later, the TV station that was paying attention to the incident suddenly broadcast a piece of news that [the suspect suddenly collapsed and died while covering his chest], and then...

"...Liar, liar, right?"

"Hey, hey, this isn't true, is it?"

Then, Yoshida and the new editor were shocked!

"Although I don't know why before, My Familiar Cat, you didn't stop me from starting a new series through persuasion as usual..." Makoto Takahashi gently shook the small black notebook in his hand, showing a menacing smile, "But when I saw the people around you today, I understood... It turns out that the organization considered that you, the cat of my family, were not sufficiently powerful in combat, so they specially sent auxiliary personnel this time!"

"No, actually the reason why we came to you today is..." Yoshida recovered from the shock and tried to explain to Takahashi Makoto, but the visual effect was not very satisfactory...

"My beloved cat, don't deny it yet!" Makoto Takahashi turned his attention to the female editor and put on an expression of "I have seen through the truth", "The organization may have realized Yeah, direct persuasion is totally useless to me... So I think you guys here today are actually trying to find something else to distract me, so as to interfere with my plan to start a new series... That's not it. Wrong?"

Yes, when Yoshida learned that Takahashi Makoto planned to start a new series, he decisively chose to report it to the editor-in-chief of Bottle without hiding it... After discussing with many colleagues on the editorial side, the editor proposed [Find something to make a certain second grader] Cartoonist Hohoin Yoshima does this kind of inferior [attention diversion] battle plan!

But now...

"..." The two editors-in-charge, whose intentions were revealed, had embarrassed looks on their faces...

After showing his mysterious strength, he then went straight to the point...Takahashi Makoto's negotiation skills are still as powerful as ever!

"The intelligence capabilities and layout capabilities on the editorial side... well, they are still as bad as ever!" After Makoto Takahashi scoffed, he looked at the two editors in charge in front of him with interest, with an expectant smile on his face. , "So, let's talk about it, what is the [commission] that the editor used to divert my attention... exactly?"

"Uh... we want to ask for your help..." Not noticing the corners of Yoshida's twitching mouth, the female editor pondered for a moment and then decisively took charge of the entire editorial side!

"According to the rules of the universe of [equivalent exchange]..." With Yoshida looking at him with a look like "I knew it would be like this", Makoto Takahashi violently interrupted the female editor's words and raised his head. He held the small black book in his hand, with a [joyful] smile on his face, "Before you tell me your request... tell me first, what is your name?"

"...can you not say it?"

…

"It's just a video after the plot of the movie was edited... It's so easy to believe it! Ah, humans nowadays are so easy to be dominated!" After sending away the two responsible editors, Takahashi Makoto casually handed over the little black The notebook was thrown aside, "It seems that it is a very wise approach to obtain some unfinished movie videos in advance through special means!"

"Although I know this is the editor's plan..." Picking up the note with the address on the table, Takahashi Makoto showed an expectant smile, "But considering the [pleasure] that [new toys] can bring after purchasing, 】...!

"And this address... It seems from visual inspection that it belongs to a junior that the witch is very fond of. Is he probably also there?"

"Well, this kind of interesting thing, for the [Demon King's family]... is simply a tailor-made copy!"

While Makoto Takahashi was talking, a man and a woman at a certain place suddenly shivered involuntarily...

This is the so-called [big universe rule], right? Or rather...

Steins;Gate's Choice!

In this chapter, a certain cat just wants to tell you readers, please don’t tell others your name casually.
