Chapter 592: If you want to know, let's have a real sword victory
Dog's food is forced until it is full of food...... What kind of mood would it be?
Yoshida and Iida, the two editors in charge, who were the subjects of this trial, had never revealed any information about this in any place, and what they experienced at Makoto Takahashi's house that day was a taboo for the two single editors in charge who absolutely did not want to recall or even be mentioned!
The only thing that made the editors of the weekly magazine depressed was that for a whole month since that day, whether it was the black-bellied editor Yoshida or the optimistic and bold newcomer editor Iida, colleagues who occasionally mentioned words such as "love" and "marriage" would always cast quite murderous and hateful glances at their colleagues at the first time......
Besides, I'll kill you with my eyes...... Well, that's probably what they look like!
Compared with the editor-in-charge, Makoto Takahashi's mood in the recent period is very [happy]!
A second-year cartoonist has a smile of anticipation on his face all day long, and sometimes even makes inexplicable wild laughter, which makes Uncle Ding Ding on the assistant's side feel a lot of pressure!
Because Uncle Tintin knows that whenever Makoto Takahashi shows this kind of [pleasant] smile, it means that some people are going to be unlucky...... And judging by past experience, there is a ninety percent probability that the unlucky person of the tragedy will be Yoshida, the responsible editor of the mad cartoonist Phoenix Academy!
As for the rest of the 10%, maybe it should be...... I was myself on the assistant side!
However, about this matter, Uncle Ding Ding was not too depressed, and he did not put on an expression of "no love", after all, now Takahashi Makoto has made it clear that he wants to make trouble, so he has a certain psychological preparation......
If it's really like Yoshida, who was directly toyed with and killed without psychological preparation...... Uncle Ding Ding said that if he didn't increase his salary as a [mental loss fee], he would definitely roll up his sleeves and leave directly as soon as possible!
Be cautious, this is the state of Uncle Ding Ding's work in the recent period! Whenever there is any wind and grass around him, Uncle Ding Ding will always bring up his 100,000 spirits, worrying that everything is set up by a certain middle school cartoonist...... However, after this kind of day lasted for a whole month, Uncle Ding Ding finally noticed the source of Makoto Takahashi's [abnormality] this time!
Originally, as an assistant to a manga artist, especially a manga artist like Makoto Takahashi, who serialized multiple comics at the same time, Uncle Tintin had a lot of work to complete...... After all, the salary is twice as high as that of his peers, and according to the principle of [equivalent exchange], it is natural that Uncle Ding Ding needs to pay the same amount of labor!
However, in the course of a month, Uncle Tintin's salary has not decreased, but the workload has decreased a lot...... To put it simply, Uncle Tintin only needs to be responsible for the processing of the comic manuscript of the comic "One Punch Man" every day, and the comic manuscript of the comic "White Rabbit Candy" that used to need to be completed with the help of the foil, but Makoto Takahashi prohibits Uncle Tintin from meddling in it quite abnormally, and even early observation is expressly forbidden!
It is forbidden to interfere in the completion of the comic draft of "White Rabbit Candy", and it is forbidden to observe the plot of this comic in advance as an assistant...... These signs all imply that Makoto Takahashi's next backhand, the treasure used to obtain [pleasure], is obviously the comic "White Rabbit Candy"!
…… To be exact, it should be the next plot of the comic "White Rabbit Candy"!
"Could it be that the next plot of "White Rabbit Candy", what god will unfold, right?" Uncle Ding Ding was quite puzzled about this matter, and even asked Makoto Takahashi more than once, "You must know that in the content of the previous sentence, the plot of Kaga Rin's rejection of the confession of Yuki Futani, a childhood sweetheart, has made many readers entangled for a long time...... And according to Ah Cheng's previous character of a pit person, the plot should go in a more heart-wrenching and sadistic direction next, right?"
"No, when the reader's side applause sounds, it will definitely usher in a happy ending!" and it will be sad and sadistic or something......" Takahashi Makoto pretended to be unfathomable, and said something that made Uncle Ding Ding feel very inadequate, "Speaking of Ding Ding Ji San, I really didn't expect it...... It turns out that in your impression, I actually exist like that!"
"I said Ah Cheng, you should have had this kind of consciousness a long time ago, right?" Uncle Ding Ding drew a thin line, and at the same time looked at a certain middle school cartoonist who had no self-knowledge, "Not to mention the [Makoto Shinkai] deity that many readers don't know yet, think back a little to the comics you have serialized since your debut...... Hmph!"
"What do you mean?" Makoto Takahashi seemed to be quite unhappy with Uncle Dingding's attitude, and threw the paintbrush in his hand aside, "Dingding Jisan, you are like this, and so is my family cat...... If you really have any opinion about me, just say it! For the sake of you having the courage to stand up to me, I promise to beat you half to death!"
"Hey, hey, Ah Cheng, this is a threat, right? It's definitely a threat!" Uncle Ding Ding looked at Takahashi Makoto, who was a little annoyed and angry, and wisely chose to change the topic, "Speaking of which, Ah Cheng, I remember that you seemed to have quietly taken out the unpublished comics of "White Rabbit Candy" to show others, right?"
"Eh, Ding Ding Ji San, you actually noticed this?" Takahashi Makoto looked at Uncle Ding Ding with some surprise, and after a moment of silence, he picked up the [Magic Sword] leaning on the side of the table, and asked in a cold voice, "...... Are you really a spy sent by the Order? Tell me, who is the person in charge of dealing with you?"
"No...... Isn't that the time now?" Ignoring Makoto Takahashi's threat that looked like a [bluff], Uncle Tintin stared at Makoto Takahashi with a serious expression, "I said Makoto, you have a little common sense in what you do, right? Didn't you already sign a contract with the monthly magazine before? It's better not to do this again if you let others watch the unpublished manga manuscript in advance...... If the other party has malicious intentions and directly spoils the observed plot in advance, it will cause a lot of trouble!"
"Husband, let's not talk about the possibility of that kind of thing happening...... Takahashi squinted his eyes and recalled that he had asked a certain uncle to observe the comic manuscript of "White Rabbit Candy" in advance, and a smile called [Pleasure] appeared on his face, "For me, the [pleasure] that this incident brought me is completely in line with the principle of [Equivalent Exchange]!"
"Tsk, I'm getting more and more curious now......" Seeing the smile on Makoto Takahashi's face, Uncle Ding Ding pouted unhappily, "Not only did I start to wonder what kind of plot did Ah Cheng draw in your words "White Rabbit Candy", but I was even more curious about Ah Cheng, who did you let watch the plot that has not yet been published in advance!"
"Ding Ding Jisan, do you also want to observe in advance?" After Takahashi Makoto took back the [Magic Sword], he directly shook his hand and refused Uncle Ding Ding's request without the slightest thought, "No, this is an important treasure to obtain [Pleasure]! And more importantly, ......"
"Hey, is it [equivalent exchange] again?" Uncle Tintin smacked his lips, and after a moment of silence, he decisively gave up his hesitation driven by curiosity, and entered the [negotiation] mode with Makoto Takahashi, "So...... What do you need me to do?"
"Eh, Ding Ding Jisan, are you sure?Ding Ding Jisan, as your request on the assistant side, it stands to reason that I shouldn't have refused......" Takahashi Makoto looked Uncle Ding Ding up and down with some surprise, and after the latter was seen to be hairy all over, he shook his head regretfully, and once again rejected the request of the uncle who was on the assistant side, "But unfortunately, this time the situation is slightly different!" After all, I know your strength very well, and it may be possible to carry me one or two moves, but if you have a life-and-death battle with my real sword...... Of course, if you ask for it, it's not impossible......"
"......" After being silent for a moment, he recalled Uncle Ding Ding who had almost walked in the underworld, and the corners of his mouth twitched and asked, "Isn't it just reading a comic...... Is it necessary to involve this level of fighting?"
"Just reading a comic, hmph, Ding Ding Jisan, you underestimate the profession of cartoonist!" Takahashi Makoto sighed in a tone of "just a mole ant really doesn't know the height of the sky", "In some worlds, those who call themselves [duelists] exist, but even playing a card can save the world...... What's more, what about a cartoonist profession that can control people's hearts and change human cognition?"
"Okay, it's my shallow knowledge......" Uncle Ding Ding, who understood the truth of [arguing with Makoto Takahashi about unreliable theories is definitely self-defeating], decisively chose to surrender and admit defeat, and used the [Topic Shift] skill again!" "But now I'm curious about ...... Is that guy who meets the requirements for observing comic manuscripts really human?"
It is natural that there will be such doubts, after all, in Uncle Ding Ding's cognition, the force value of a certain middle school and second cartoonist is definitely a non-human level existence......
"Who let the other party have the bonus of the innate skill of [madness]?" Takahashi Makoto spread his hands indifferently, with an expectant look on his face, "If you want to confirm it...... When this episode of "White Rabbit Candy" is published, I will invite you to observe it in person!"
"This ...... Okay!" Intellectually, Uncle Tintin was tempted to refuse......
But at the moment...... Curiosity overwhelmed Uncle Tintin's so-called [reason] by an overwhelming margin!
