How can I let go of the matter of saving my stepsister?

It was as if she heard something that was very difficult for her to do.

"Qiong?"

"Brother, I'm so happy. If I can paint at home, I won't complain even if you just paint all day long. It's just..."

Strangely, the joy displayed by Qiong seemed somewhat forced, and there was a turning point at the end.

"Is this really a good idea? I finally gained prestige in the production team with the wonderful drawings for the fourth episode and was respected by everyone. In order to continue making animations in the future, wouldn't it be more beneficial to work more in the company and get along well with everyone?"

"You, you just think too much. You complained before that I didn't spend enough time with you, but now you complain that I spend too much time with you? Don't worry, brother. I only have a few connections, but they are not as good as yours."

"Yes, I know."

With a weak and low voice, Qiong lowered her head to respond, but when she looked up again, she was still trying to persuade her, as if letting him spend most of the day working in the company and not being able to accompany her was the best option at the moment.

Wouldn't it be better to have more time to spend with her? Sato Yuu didn't understand Qiong's thoughts and could only listen to her:

"But the company is not close to our home. If my brother works at home, his ability to collect cards, pass on work information, etc. will be limited, which will waste time, right? The construction period is already tight, what if something goes wrong?

I want to spend more time with my brother, but the time I spend with him after getting off work on time is enough. I don’t want to affect his normal work. After all, he will have to make more animations in the future…”

"How can animation compare to you, little idiot? Besides, you don't have to worry about what you said. I can come back and draw at home because I got the animation rights for the entire final episode, storyboard original drawing performance, etc. In short, it's a one-man original drawing, you know that one."

Putting down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, Sato You reached out and grasped Qiong's skinny hand, holding both hands tightly, and expressed his heartfelt feelings to her with tenderness in his eyes.

“I want to make the most perfect final episode that can save the reputation of the anime, so that everyone can know what a genius the new artist Sato Yuu is, and let everyone know how much of a sister complex I have.”

Suddenly, he thought of what Oden Chiharu had said on the phone before. He licked his lips and said proudly:

"I want everyone to stop calling me 'The Man with the Erotic Picture' and call me 'The Man with the Sister Control'! Just wait and see, I will definitely make a final chapter that Qiong will like, and personally hand you the love letter I drew."

"love letter......"

The emotions revealed by Sato Yu were too strong and too sincere, leaving Qiong stunned. As she murmured the word "love letter", tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

His lips and teeth trembled slightly, Qiong was so moved, but a look of sadness flashed across his face, but finally turned into firm determination.

The final chapter is two months later. That is really too long ago, but -

"I will definitely watch it, the final episode!"

Using all her strength, Qiong made a firm, or perhaps more resolutely, vow to Sato Yu.

Then, she pulled her hand out from Sato Yu's palm and pressed it on her chest. She narrowed her eyes again and said firmly in a tiny voice that Sato Yu couldn't hear at all:

"must."

Volume 57: Chapter Chapter . Ambush

If I want to go home and draw the final episode, I must first submit the storyboards, which must be approved by the general supervisor Nanae Mochizuki, and then by the original author of the novel. Only after both parties give their approval can I proceed.

Therefore, in the next few days, Sato Yu was still drawing storyboards in the company.

Because this was a "conspiracy" that had been planned since the Sister Not Sister project, and because Sato Yu had been constantly studying Sister Not Sister novels and was a web writer himself, he had a unique advantage in conceiving plots, so he was able to produce the storyboards extremely quickly. He completed the first draft of the storyboard in just three days and handed it over to Mochizuki Nanae.

"So fast? And there are so many changes! Do you mean the anime will just create an original ending? Why do you always act recklessly? In this case, the original author's authorization... the anime did such a bad job before, I always feel that the other party will not agree easily."

Sato Yu's drawings are of very high quality. Even the rough storyboards are still very complete. Many places are not drawn in small grids but directly moved onto the drawing paper and can be used as storyboards.

Looking at the storyboard in her hand in amazement, and unconsciously covering the storyboard her subordinate was drawing with her arm, the light in Mochizuki Nanae's eyes dimmed. She was also worried about whether this storyboard with an original ending could get the original author's permission, and felt that it would be very difficult.

However, the reality was not as she expected.

"As expected, you have already started drawing, even though we don't know if this storyboard can pass the original author's review."

The next day after getting the storyboard, Mochizuki Nanae disappeared for the entire morning. When she came back in the afternoon, she saw that Sato Yu had already drawn to the third card. She was already feeling disappointed, and even more unwilling and jealous, and her tone became even more hostile.

"I am not worried because I believe the supervision will definitely get a good result for me."

"This trust... I don't feel happy at all."

If it was Nanae Mochizuki who loves animation so much that she could devote her all to it, after seeing such an excellent storyboard, she would definitely try her best to beg the other party to agree to the original ending, even if her self-esteem was hurt by the final episode being taken away, and even if the original author resisted.

This is the meaning implied in Sato Yu's words. She simply doesn't care about the previous dispute at all. She is simply taking advantage of her love for animation and her obsession with completing a sister-not-sister animation to do whatever she wants.

"No matter how much I like animation, you shouldn't bully me like this."

Sato Yu did not hear Mochizuki Nanae's tearful whisper, or maybe he heard it but pretended not to know. He just asked without raising his head.

"What about in the end? Did the original author agree?"

"agreed."

She answered with gritted teeth, and after finishing her answer, Mochizuki Nanae pursed her lips.

The essence of making animations is to boost sales of subsequent volumes of light novels. If the production team comes up with an original ending, the audience who feel satisfied after watching the ending will have less desire to buy the physical book.

This will not only reduce the effect of boosting sales, but also the authors of light novels will be compared with others if they fail to create a better ending than the anime, and will bear a lot of unnecessary pressure.

Taking all these factors into consideration, Mochizuki Nanae thought the negotiation would be extremely difficult, but in reality the conversation was surprisingly easy.

Flipping through the storyboards, I frowned when I saw the original plot, and I was so angry that I smashed the table with my hands. However...

When he saw the last page and found out that the storyboard was signed by Sato Yu, and saw the words "original drawing by one person" specially marked by Sato Yu, the original author immediately changed his face like Sichuan Opera, and became Mr. Chengsaku, smiling happily, and even couldn't help but pat his fat belly and laughed out loud.

Driven by the interesting complaining videos of the big up anime low-hand Yuta, the recent playback volume of Mei Fei Mei, especially the fourth episode, has increased significantly. After that, his scenes were selected into the MAD, a collection of wonderful paintings produced monthly by Makoto Yanagiya, and the original artist was specially marked as Sato Yu. Since then, Sato Yu has gained a certain reputation as a genius master of erotic paintings.

Such things make people feel heartbroken that the novel they worked so hard to create was ruined beyond recognition by the production team, but they can never give up. They have been paying attention to the developments of the animation production... The original author of "Mei Fei Mei" must know about it.

As a result, there was such a drastic change in attitude that was extremely damaging to Mochizuki Nanae's self-esteem.

Because the person who drew this storyboard was Sato Yu, who drew such wonderful shots full of sister-con flavor, the original author, who was grateful to him and had a fundamental resonance with him, immediately agreed after reading the signature on the storyboard, and even asked Mochizuki Nanae to convey many words of thanks to Sato Yu.

The original author completely resented her as a supervisor, but Sato Yuu was trusted that much...

Such overly different treatment seemed to have created another huge wound in Mochizuki Nanae's already bruised heart.

Although she was unwilling, it was the fact. The gap in ability was constantly reflected, and there was always a sad and thick barrier between Mochizuki Nanae and Sato Yu. So much so that when Sato Yu asked her about it, Mochizuki Nanae was only willing to say "agree" dryly, but was unwilling to truly convey to him the words of praise and affirmation from the original author.

"Ugh."

He didn't know the inside story, but he could always feel that Mochizuki Nanae's attitude towards him was becoming increasingly cold, and it seemed as if he was returning to the day when he first returned to the company, emitting cold air all over his body. Listening to the footsteps fading away, he stopped painting and looked back. Looking at her back that was so thin that it seemed almost broken, Sato Yu couldn't help but sigh.

But he had already decided not to regret it, and the sadness was forcibly dispelled in an instant. Sato Yu turned back, threw away all the external sounds and images, and completely immersed himself in the world of painting.

He continued painting like this until it was almost time to get off work, then Sato Yuu started to clean up and packed a whole box of items needed for painting at home.

Dong! The items fell into the cardboard box with a dull sound.

Sato Yu looked up and saw the original artist Ryunosuke Hamanishi, who had always been very caring towards him. He raised his eyebrows at him.

"Brother, you are leaving soon. It is really unpleasant that I can no longer look up at the high-quality original paintings on your desk and motivate myself.

I don't have much to give you, so I'll just give you this pen that carries my animation soul. It should be a bit smoother than yours when it comes to drawing. This is also the last part of my original words. When the time comes, please mark it in the original painting column as 'the brush of Ryunosuke Hamanishi, the production team'. Thank you very much! "

He has an open-minded personality. Ever since the wonderful drawing in the fourth episode, the older and more experienced big brother original artist Sato Yu often calls him "brother" and even regards himself as his younger brother and makes many jokes with him.

Now that Sato Yu has left, he also offers his blessings.

"Go away, go away. I can't stand a monster drawing next to me every day. Here, keep this. It's a points card from the convenience store at the corner of the street. The points in it should be enough to redeem two boxes of energy drinks. By the way, you have stolen dozens of bottles of my drinks since you came back, right?

I'm angry. If the final chapter is not drawn well and can't keep up with the progress, I will definitely dunk on your head with a drink!"

Following Hamanishi Ryunosuke, the female original artist Hiromi Amayura who was sitting on the other side of Sato Yuu complained and spoke tsundere words while stuffing a convenience store points card into his hand.

The couple of painters sang the same tune and each gave him something, which touched Sato Yu's heart and made him feel reluctant to leave.

then......

"Young man, don't slack off when you're painting at home."

"The main artist has left, and we will have to go through deadline hell again."

"We will ensure that every episode is broadcast on time and that the anime is not cut short. Correspondingly, the final episode of the comeback will depend on you, Sato!"

"Come on, I look forward to seeing a different kind of girl who is not a girl, a girl who is not a girl that will surprise the audience."

He walked out of the production team with the box in his arms. Passing by each table, the original artists all gave him some gifts and words of expectation. In the end, when he reached the front door, another box filled with everyone's gifts was stacked on top of Sato Yu's original box.

Although for Sato Yuu, he just draws every day, just draws, and communicates with many people in the production team with only a few words, and he himself thinks that they are not familiar with each other at all, but the fact is that in everyone's mind, he has long been different.

The original paintings convey emotions, and the focused figure of Sato Yuu immersed in the world of painting day after day is captured in the eyes. The people in the production team are even more impressed by the original paintings he drew. Everyone has already regarded him as an extraordinary and important existence.

They were the ones who had to draw the lousy, rushed original drawings that were not even up to their normal drawing standards during the hellish construction period, and placed all their chances and hopes of excellence on Sato Yuu. The 19-year-old boy was their superman of erotic drawings, the savior of both the girls and the non-girls.

So keep up the good work, my savior!

Such a feeling was truly conveyed to Sato Yu's heart. He turned around and looked at everyone, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He had suffered a loss in his previous life when working with multiple people. He hated this rubbish model the most, where success or failure was not determined by himself.

But now, he seems to be enjoying it?

"So many things? Gifts from everyone? Let me help you carry them."

After saying goodbye and walking out the door, Sato Yu was about to go downstairs when he suddenly heard such a clear and mellow female voice in his ears.

"Ms. Sugino?"

"I just happened to be on a business trip, and I can give you, Sato, a ride in my car along the way."

Since then, she really listened to Sato Yu's advice. Sugino Miki, the rustically dressed production manager, really changed her image, cut her bangs to her eyebrows, and changed her contact lenses to complete her stunning transformation. Now she is the second goddess sought after by everyone in the production team.

As she said this, she raised the car keys in her hand, showing off her beautiful face with a cheerful look. However, the pink on her face revealed the fact that she was lying.

It's not on the way, she has been lying in ambush here for a long time!

Volume 58: Chapter Chapter . Returning Home

"In the future, I need to confirm the progress of the original drawings and send them to the animation company for cutting and coloring. In short, there are many things that need to be handed over to you, Sato. I think I need to go and get acquainted with them. Today is a good day."

With a blush on her face, she swayed her body slightly in a shy manner, and turned her face away, not daring to look at Sato Yu. Sugino Miki gave a reason.

A reasonable reason to know Sato's address.

There is indeed some truth in this, but there are definitely more wonderful women's thoughts hidden in it.

Sato Yu only noticed the former and not the latter, and nodded heavily in agreement.

"I really need to show Miss Sugino the way. I'll trouble you in the future."

"No way!? Isn't this what a production manager is supposed to do? It's my job to make sure that you original artists can hand in the art cards on time and streamline the various processes."

Miki Sugino hurriedly shook her head, and then walked in silence for a while. Looking at the straight back of Sato Yu in front of her, her beautiful eyes wandered, she bravely asked again.

"Sato, is there anything you like to eat?"

"What do you like to eat? Um, my sister's cooking!"

"Uh......"

The unexpected yet reasonable words of the sister-con man controlled Sugino Miki for a moment. She swallowed hard a few times to relieve the dryness in her throat, and then she gritted her teeth and said.

"What about your sister? What do you like?"

"Qiong, she likes a lot of things, cream cakes, bananas, cookies, crepes, daifuku, white chocolate... In short, all kinds of sweets, all kinds of high-calorie things, but... even so, she didn't gain weight."

When he mentioned the things he liked, he was general and brief; when he mentioned the food that Qiong liked, he was detailed and eloquent, and he kept talking. After talking about a lot of things that Qiong liked to eat, Sato Yuu's mood became depressed, and he murmured a sigh, the true meaning of which Sugino Miki could not yet understand.

After listening carefully and remembering about 70% of what she had learned, Sugino Miki said:

"Then I'll transfer the original painting and bring something my sister likes on the way."

The change of image, or more precisely, everyone's attitude after the transformation, gave the originally unconfident Miki Sugino some confidence, and now she acts more proactively, or more "despicable".

Originally, she wanted to know Sato Yu's preferences so that she could show off her cooking skills to win his appetite in the future, but she was awakened by a sentence and immediately recalled the "world-class Wagyu cuisine" that Qiong brought to the company last time. Knowing that she might not be able to achieve this ambition in her lifetime, she decided to settle for the next best thing.

If she couldn't control Sato Yu's stomach, then she wouldn't be able to control her sister-in-law's stomach either. With the determination to stick to her sister-in-law Qiong and strive to be on the [Sister-in-law Candidate List] as soon as possible, she spoke in a loud voice.

As an old hand in the love field, he should have known what was going on in Sugino Miki's mind by now, but when it came to Sato Yuu, he was like hitting a wall of steel. He asked directly in a straightforward manner.

"Where is the way?"

If you don't have enough money, you can't choose your address. The neighborhood where Sato Yu lives is not only far from the company and inconvenient for commuting, but it is also opposite to the road leading to various cooperating animation companies and outsourcing companies. Therefore, in his opinion, Sugino Miki must be crazy to say such things.

"It's on my way anyway, I can always stop by!"

And she was really confused. Her lie was exposed and her face turned red. She simply pushed Sato Yu aside and got into the car to argue with him.

“Come if you want, but don’t bring too much.”

"Ok!"
