Chapter 616: Please Continue Your Performance
The delivery of "The Shape of Sound" is a major event in Xia You's heart. For him, the attempt meant a lot.
For example, this is the first time since he crossed over that he has not copied but created his own work.
Although there is a foundation for the original manga, it is not easy to convert the drawings into words. After all, there are many expressions, body movements, and moods that are easy to understand when expressed in pictures, but it is very difficult to use words.
In addition, how to add and cut down the seven-volume manga into a novella without losing the original flavor is also a big problem.
Many times Xia Youdu Kavinka wanted to go to heaven, and I also thought about simply giving up and copying others, wouldn't it be easy and happy. But in the end, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
After this incident, Xia You felt that his writing level had faintly improved, and he was more comfortable in handling his works. Although there is no major breakthrough yet, the writing bottleneck has indeed loosened.
In other words, he has half a foot in a new realm.
In addition, since he was recommended by Machida Yuanzi to participate in the mid-length awards, Xia Yu has been busy enough.
- Not only did I have to finish writing "The Shape of Sound" before the deadline, but I also had to deal with the release of new books from SAO and RE0, review Kanon scripts and original art from time to time, record songs such as game BGM and "Pure Land of Bliss", and prepare for Toyonosaki's regular exams.
Yes, don't look at Xia You getting tired of being with her sister all day long, write some games, add a little Shura field as a seasoning, and live a pink youth life. But he's actually a student at work.
As a student, studying and exams are topics that can never be avoided.
Some time ago, while desperately preparing for the exam in "The Shape of Sound", Xia You really wanted most of his life. Fortunately, with the help of Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who was firmly in the first place in the grade, he barely passed the exam.
However, in the face of the subject that he is not good at - English, Xia You, who is temporarily cramming, still failed the course. After a while, he will have to go to school to make up for the exam.
By the way, Ying Lili also failed the English course, and scored 26 points in the exam. The results are even more miserable than Xia You. Thinking that her father, Uncle Spencer, was a pure Englishman, one had to wonder if Ying Li Li was his own child.
No, even if it was picked up, English wouldn't have rotted like that after so many years, right?
Of course, this is nothing, although Ying Lili is of mixed English and Japanese descent, but after all, she was born and raised in Japan and is lazy to go abroad at home all day long, so it is understandable that she is not good at English. But Zhenbai clearly stayed abroad for several years, but he still came back with a zero score in the English test (other subjects are also zero points), which made Xia You, as a guardian, really speechless.
Even if you choose a few multiple-choice questions, you shouldn't get zero points, right?
If it weren't for the fact that the art subject of Shuigao didn't take into account the results of cultural classes, and all the make-up exams would have used the original questions, this wave of true white alone would probably have to repeat a grade for 10,000 years.
All in all, Xia You was really busy some time ago because of all kinds of things. Now with the delivery of "The Shape of Sound", the matter has finally come to an end, giving him some leisure.
Next, he only needs to cooperate with Kasumigaoka Shiyu and others to finish the cannon before the winter Comic, and wait for the results of the big prize review by the way.
☆
The family of the fifth watchman is not wealthy, not even well-off, just an ordinary family.
Although there is a building with a courtyard, the mortgage has to be repaid for more than ten years, so both parents of the five watchmen must work hard. They are the working class that can be found everywhere in Japan.
Because her parents are very busy with work, they often fall asleep after eating when they come home, and the eldest daughter, Liuli, the black cat, is responsible for contracting all the housework and taking care of her two younger sisters.
And she herself is accustomed to it, and she does not take credit for it at all.
After dinner, the black cat washed the dishes and chopsticks and walked out of the kitchen, and warmed two glasses of milk for his sisters, urging them to do their homework while drinking. Don't watch TV until you've finished writing.
In fact, my sister Zhuxi is okay, although the child is only five years old, he is well-behaved and sensible, and the black cat often asks him once. What really gave her a headache was the eldest sister - the fifth watch Hinata. Not only does she like to be lazy, but she is also very smart.
For example, in order to 'divide the pot', he will always instigate Zhu Xi before doing something bad or being lazy, which is very nerve-wracking.
"Sister Ann La Liuli, I promise that I will finish my homework well. Don't worry so much. ”
In the living room, Hinata sat at the table and said with a grin. The short hair on her head was tied up in two ponytails, dangling back and forth, and with those large, cunning eyes, she looked like a ghost.
Thinking that she had been so fooled before, but in the end, the homework was still delayed until more than twelve o'clock, and the black cat couldn't help but squint.
“…… I don't believe a word of what you say. ”
"Oh, that's too much! Is this what an older sister should say to her sister!? I'm going to run away from home! I'm really going to run away from home this time!"
In addition to complaining loudly, Hinata pretended to look hurt and wiped the tears that didn't exist in the corners of her eyes.
Hehe, believe that you have a ghost. After saying so many times, when did you really run away from home?
Looking at the eldest sister who turned into a drama spirit, the black cat looked indifferent and indifferent. Those eyes that squinted down slightly seemed to say, 'Please continue your performance'.
Tut.
Is it useless to run away from home? It seems that I have used it too many times.
But Hinata was not discouraged. She decisively looked for a helper and said aggrieved to Zhu Hee, who was lying on the table and writing the painting homework assigned by the kindergarten.
"Xiaozhu, come and help! Sister Liuli is bullying!"
"Huh?"
As soon as she heard this, Zhu Xi immediately raised her head and looked back at the two elder sisters. Her faint eyebrows furrowed, her little face was not very happy, but her milk voice was very sincere.
"Really, we can't quarrel!
The black cat, who was a little annoyed because Hinata was clever again, was amused by Joo-hee's childish speech. She shook her head a little amusedly.
"Xiaozhu, we didn't quarrel. ”
"Really, not?"
Zhu Xi still didn't look convinced. Blinking her watery eyes, she looked back and forth at the two suspiciously.
"No ......"
Although Hinata still wanted to mumble something, he was stopped by the black cat in time with a cold look, and he had the meaning that if you do something again, you will know that you will die later.
After threatening Hinata to shut up, the black cat as if switching instantly returned to a gentle look. Looking at Zhu Xi, her eyes were as soft as flowing water.
"Not really. Zhu Hee, you can draw obediently. ”
"Well, well. ”
"Hmm. ”
Touching the head of Zhu Hee, who lowered his head and continued to do his painting homework, the black cat stood up and straightened his waist again. Staring at Hinata, who was afraid of being held accountable, she was not angry but shook her head helplessly.
"Alas......"
It would be nice if this little ingenuity could be used for studying instead of being lazy!
After not saying much, after telling Hinata to do her homework well and saying that she would come out to check later, the black cat walked back to the room. She's got something to do, too.
