A middle school cartoonist

How many days is this?

Makoto Takahashi shook his head, rubbed his sore eyes, and looked at the drawings piled up on the table. The soreness in his shoulder made it impossible to hold the brush in his right hand!

"A-Cheng, take a rest!" The speaker was Li Byung-yin, who also had dark circles under his eyes. He advised Takahashi Cheng with some worry, "You haven't slept for three days! If you continue to draw, your body will be damaged." I won’t be able to bear it!”

"It's just three days without sleep, don't worry! The Demon King's body is not as fragile as the human body!" Makoto Takahashi pushed away Li Byung-yin's hand and slapped his cheek hard, trying to wake himself up Some once again picked up the brush with his trembling right hand, "I also want to rest! But my body always refuses to obey! Brother Muzi, don't you hear it? That cry from the soul, 'Keep painting, I still want to keep drawing and keep drawing, but this sound keeps making noise and can’t stop! Huh... The Demon King’s Awakening Mode... Huh... starts again!”

Watching Makoto Takahashi start painting again, Li Byung-yin helplessly shook his head to the other assistants, indicating that there was nothing he could do!

"By the way, why is Cheng like this?" Ueno Aoi asked with a yawn, "Although I have been here as an assistant for a long time, this is the first time I have seen Cheng work so hard!"

"Perhaps you are not willing to give in, right? Cheng had high expectations before, but..." Ding Ding also put down the brush and stretched, "After the release of the fourth episode of "When the Cicada Cries", many Readers called the editorial department to complain, and the ranking in the readers' survey dropped directly to fifteenth place, almost being cut in half. However, "Fullmetal Alchemist" made many readers dissatisfied because of Hughes's death, and its ranking dropped directly to the fifth place! Number seven!"

"Now is not the time to talk about this!" Li Byung-yin looked at Makoto Takahashi who was immersed in painting, frowning tightly, "The most important thing now is to let Cheng stop painting and take a good rest!"

"At this time, I think we should contact Mr. Yoshida! Maybe Mr. Yoshida can persuade Cheng!" Ding Ding glanced at Cheng Takahashi helplessly, "If we continue like this, let alone Cheng's body can't bear it, we It’s almost unbearable! Although I really want to complain about Acheng’s speed of painting, the quality of each drawing has not deteriorated. Is this the so-called genius?”

"It's not a genius, it's the Demon King!" Makoto Takahashi replied without looking back, throwing aside the comic manuscript on the table, "Little Tintin, if you have time to complain, you might as well get to work quickly!"

"Yes, yes..." Ding Ding stood up dizzily, staggered to Takahashi Makoto's side, picked up the comic manuscript, and read the content of the comic casually, "This time it's "Hanging" Ah...Have you completed the content of another chapter? In addition to the previous "Steel Refining", it has been completed..."

"No!" Takahashi Makoto's house was wailing. The assistants were already in despair, and they all looked at Li Byung-yin with twinkling eyes!

"..." Li Byungyin shook his head silently, picked up his cell phone to signal, walked to the balcony, and went to call Yoshida.

"I'll go for it!" Tintin wanted to forcefully interrupt Makoto Takahashi's Demon King Awakening Mode, but was stopped by Aoi Ueno!

"You'd better not do this!" Aoi Ueno glanced at Makoto Takahashi secretly and explained in a low voice, "Cheng doesn't like to be interrupted by others when he is drawing. The last time Mr. Yoshida came over, it was... Because I interrupted Ah Cheng’s painting, and then..."

"What happened?" Ding Ding looked at Ueno Aoi's pale face and couldn't help but become curious, "You won't be thrown over the shoulder by Cheng, right? Haha... eh? What does your expression mean..."

"It's just a throw over the shoulder!" Ueno Aoi seemed to have remembered something terrible, with a look of horror in her eyes, "A-Cheng tied Yoshida up last time, and then..."

"Xiao Kui, you seem to be very idle!" Makoto Takahashi suddenly jumped up from his chair, holding two comic manuscripts with his thumb and index finger, "Look, a new job is here again! Are you talking in low voices because you want to overthrow the rule of the Great Demon King? "

"Um..." Ueno Aoi shook her head hurriedly, her face a little unnatural, "I just compliment Cheng that you draw so fast!"

"Oh? Really? Sure enough, after the cat queen of my family, you all ushered in the rebellious period? Your subordinates started to rebel constantly. This is the plot of the development of the devil's story!" Takahashi Makoto showed a dangerous look on his face Smiling, "Okay! According to the routine of some novels, I will give you ignorant common people a chance to challenge the Demon King! I happen to be a little tired from painting, how about we go out for some exercise?"

Half an hour later, Yoshida arrived at Makoto Takahashi’s home!

Yoshida is indeed a little dissatisfied with Takahashi Makoto's insistent approach before! But after hearing Li Byung-yin say that Takahashi Makoto painted without sleep for three days, Yoshida felt a little guilty!

"I have forgotten that Acheng, this guy, has been developing smoothly in comics since his debut. It seems that he has not encountered any difficulties. This time he suddenly encountered a setback. Maybe he can't accept it for a while!" Yoshida said on the side Thinking about how to comfort Takahashi Makoto later, he knocked on Takahashi Makoto's door.

"Is my companion a cat? Hey, it came so fast!" Makoto Takahashi complained with some dissatisfaction, coming from the room. Yoshida opened the door and heard Makoto Takahashi's unscrupulous laughter, "Hahahahaha ...Common people, do you feel the greatness of the Demon King? Then continue working, this is the punishment for the loser!"

"What's going on?" Yoshida entered the room, looked at the listless assistants, and looked at the energetic Takahashi Makoto with some confusion, "What did you do, Cheng? Well! There are so many manga manuscripts. !”

"Hmph! Common people, who allows you to break into the Demon King's palace without permission?" Makoto Takahashi looked at Yoshida coldly, "Even though you are my beloved cat, it is a serious crime to offend the Majesty of the Demon King, and it is a death penalty! I "My beloved cat, have you written your suicide note?"

"You're finally here, Mr. Yoshida!" Li Byung-yin looked at the confused Yoshida with a 'saved' expression on his face, and then continued to explain to Yoshida very quickly, "There was no call on the phone just now. Tell me clearly, the specific situation is this..."

"A-Cheng!" Yoshida walked up to Takahashi Makoto with a serious face, bent down, and apologized in a sincere tone, "I'm really sorry. I was too impatient before! When I spoke that day, A little too excited!”

"Huh? Did you misunderstand something?" Makoto Takahashi looked at Yoshida's strange behavior, with a strange smile on his face, "Do you think that the temporary failure of the two comics this time made the unwillingness in my body explode? , and then start painting in a masochistic way, do you want to numb yourself? "

"Isn't it?" Yoshida looked at Makoto Takahashi with an affirmative look on his face, "If this weren't the case, I can't think of any other reason for you to do this!"

"So that's it, am I being underestimated?" Makoto Takahashi sighed in a low voice at first, then his tone suddenly changed and his voice raised an octave, "Huh! You ignorant common people actually underestimated the Demon King. It’s such an unforgivable crime! Yoshida, the fundamental reason why I did this is still on you!”

"Then I sincerely apologize again!" Yoshida had already given up. Seeing Makoto Takahashi's face soften a little, he asked, "But I still want to know why the cause is on me!"

"Do you still remember everything that happened that day?" Makoto Takahashi said almost through gritted teeth, staring at Yoshida with hatred in his eyes, "My beloved cat, do you know how many times you cursed me that day?"

"Did I curse you?" Yoshida looked at Makoto Takahashi with some confusion, "It seems not! It was just that you insisted on not wanting to modify the manga that day, and then we had a dispute. It seems that I didn't curse you? Besides, a curse like this supernatural thing Does the phenomenon really exist?”

“When I got home that day, the spare red and blue potions were stolen by Ogata Slime’s minions; then when I went to the administrator to replenish the red and blue potions, I was inexplicably involved in a fight between the gangsters; Although the group of bastards who tried to provoke the Demon King were suppressed with strong force, the gems used to replenish the red and blue potion trade were unfortunately lost. When he went to the vault to take out the spare gems, he was involved in the robbery again and became a kidnapper. !" Takahashi Cheng became more and more angry, and his voice became louder and louder, "Do you think this is all over? No, this is just the beginning! I finally managed to escape, and then I was stuck in the elevator. , I spent three hours waiting for rescue; when I got home, I was told that due to the renovation of the upstairs, water leaked from the roof, and the cartoon I had drawn before was completely invalid! "

"It's really unfortunate!" Yoshida sighed after listening to Takahashi Makoto's exaggerated experiences, but he was a little doubtful about their authenticity. "Although I really want to say this, but are you sure that these things you encountered are all Really? Why didn’t I hear about the bank robbery?”

"Because I drew the fugitive and gave it to the police! They said it should be kept secret to avoid overstimulating the murderer and causing bad things to happen!" Makoto Takahashi rolled his eyes, "By the way , I didn’t tell the police uncle my name, I just told them, my name is Red Scarf!”

"So Cheng, the reason why you are painting so hard is..." Cold sweat broke out on Yoshida's head, and he was afraid to look directly into Takahashi Makoto's angry eyes.

"Oh, there's nothing we can do about it!" Makoto Takahashi sighed, "I already felt an ominous premonition, so I worked hard to draw! If I don't defeat the King of Black Flame before I die, I will definitely I’m very unwilling, and I might die in peace!”

"These things you mentioned will basically never happen! You are worrying too much!" Yoshida wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and complained in a low voice, "And I really want to know, attacking a person who can be pierced with a wooden sword Who is the monster on the wall?"

"I have been possessed by Kamijou-sama recently, and my luck value has dropped directly to negative values! But why haven't I obtained the other attributes of a pick-up guy? This is not scientific at all!" Makoto Takahashi suddenly complained helplessly, " Sure enough, cartoonists have to wait until they die to become famous? Huh? That mysterious creature with wings and a silly grin...is it really you, Su Ke?"

"If you don't take a good rest, are you already hallucinating?" Yoshida winked at Ding Ding and Li Bingyin, and the three of them threw Takahashi Cheng on the bed, "Cheng, you should have a good rest now!"

"What are you doing... huh... huh..."

Takahashi Makoto lay on the bed, and before he could finish his words, he fell asleep, petrifying Yoshida and the others.

(PS: Merry Christmas Eve, dear readers! Today is the anniversary of the death of a certain Makoto, so cheer up, it's great that that scum has been dead for many years!)
