&Hashikoto, the content of the third episode is as good as ever, and the reader survey still retains the first place!" Yoshida began to cheer on the other side of the phone, "I was not mistaken, you are really a genius!"

>> Of course!" Makoto Takahashi complained a little unhappily on the phone, "Also, don't fool me with 'you're a genius' or 'you're talented', my family cat, do you think I'm the little sea otter's stupid?"

"'Stand up and lean on your legs!' Edward's words not only encouraged the confused and desperate Rose, but also made many readers enthusiastic! Many readers called, saying that they were encouraged by seeing the content of the third episode!" Yoshida completely ignored Makoto Takahashi and said excitedly, "You must know that because of the dark manga before, many editors were skeptical of your work, but this time, it finally relieved me and the editor-in-chief! Good job, Makoto Takahashi!"

Makoto Takahashi looked at the manga manuscript on the table with an expectant smile on his face, "So when are you going to come over and get the content of the fourth episode?"

&"So fast?" Yoshida was a little puzzled, but he didn't think much about it, "Then I'll go over in the evening......!"

&See you at night!" Makoto Takahashi listened to Yoshida prepare to start complaining, and hung up the phone without hesitation!

Makoto Takahashi sorted out the sketches on the table and prepared to go out to buy some ingredients. After all, during this period of time, I have been drawing comics day and night, and the inventory at home is running out! Especially the two people next door, no, to be exact, it should be three people, running over from time to time to eat! The inventory that could have lasted for a week was emptied in just three days, which made Makoto Takahashi a little angry!

Not far from Makoto Takahashi's downstairs, there is a small supermarket, and the owner is an uncle about 30 years old! Makoto Takahashi usually buys food from this supermarket, so he is familiar with the boss!

&It's been a long time, Makoto!" There weren't many people in the supermarket today, and the boss took out a copy of "Young Jumk", and when he was about to kill time, he saw Makoto Takahashi, "What's the matter, is the matter over there in the Demon Realm over?

"It's a pity, I was seriously injured last time, so I was escaped by the Demon King!" Makoto Takahashi looked unhappy, "I need a lot of medicine now, restore health and mana, and the inventory at home has been used up, so I came to you!

"After all, the existence of the church is for you people to fight with peace of mind, so the logistics will be handed over to us!"

&Reinforcements, I'm grateful!" Makoto Takahashi owed slightly, picked up the shopping basket, and started the journey of mending demons!

&& I feel like I'm going to say something like this to this little ghost, and life becomes very happy!" The uncle boss couldn't help muttering when he saw Makoto Takahashi selecting items, "Although I'm always being preached, I actually like this kind ......of life!"

The uncle and boss who had nothing to do began to read this issue of "Young >".

&Gu is recycled!If you buy so many things this time, there should be no problem!" Makoto Takahashi put a large number of items on the cash register, looking at the uncle and boss who was addicted to comics, with a happy look on his face, "Administrator, have you done any new research recently?

&Discover a very interesting skill book!"Fullmetal Alchemist" is very good!" The uncle squinted his eyes, pointed to a picture of Edward's battle, and tried his best to recommend it to Makoto Takahashi, "Ah Cheng, you can also take a look, if you can master alchemy, it is estimated that it will be much easier to deal with the Great Demon King of the Dark Realm! But don't violate the taboo of alchemy! Otherwise, ......"

& Of course I understand!" Makoto Takahashi looked at the manga he drew being liked by his uncle, and the smile on his face became even stronger, "Equivalent exchange, but it's a great existence!"

When the uncle heard Makoto Takahashi say this, he immediately became interested and talked eloquently, "Ah Cheng, I really like the comics of the fierce teacher of the Phoenix Academy! From the time I first saw "destinynote", I felt that the teacher of the Phoenix Academy was very powerful! At that time, after the teacher of the Phoenix Academy finished drawing "The Rebellious Lelouxiu", there was no new work for a long time, and I was still worried about whether something had happened...... But now that I've seen the new work of the Phoenix Academy's teacher, "Fullmetal Alchemist", I think I'm overthinking!

"Makoto Takahashi was about to leave, but when he heard what the uncle said, he became interested, "Can you tell me more about it?"

> I won't talk about the instructions given in the painting, Ah Cheng, you go and see for yourself!" The uncle pointed to the comics, and his face suddenly felt a little emotional, "Equivalent exchange, although it is limited to alchemists in the comics!, but I think that the law of equivalent exchange is ubiquitous for everyone!"

From birth to death, it is always based on the theory of equivalent exchange! Human beings eat and consume food to obtain the necessities of survival in order to survive, which is equivalent exchange; human beings have joys, angers, sorrows, and sorrows because of emotional matters, which is also an equivalent exchange; human beings work hard and get rewarded, which is also an equivalent exchange ......"

"Uncle, you wait first!" Makoto Takahashi interrupted his uncle's words with a calm face, "Some people work hard, but they don't get paid accordingly, is this an equivalent exchange?"

"Uncle looked at Makoto Takahashi's eyes in disbelief, and smiled heartily, "Ah Cheng, do you think that the so-called equivalent exchange means that the pay and the gain must be equal!

But that's the case! Some people work long hours a day, but they get little pay, is this an equivalent exchange? It's not equal at all, is it?"

>> It's just the appearance you see!" The uncle looked at the horizon and sighed inexplicably, "In this world, there are many things that seem to be like this! But the actual situation is that what human beings have paid has already received an equivalent return! Because human beings are not satisfied, what they get is different from what they expect, so they feel that the pay and the harvest are not equal, and they do not conform to the equivalent exchange!"

&& In "Fullmetal Alchemist", the two Edward brothers paid a huge price for resurrecting their mother!What did they get in exchange for equivalence?" Makoto Takahashi looked at the uncle seriously, a trace of expectation flashed in his eyes, "Mother didn't come back to life, but it was Brother Edward who lost something very important, this kind of thing, no matter how you look at it, it can't be regarded as an equivalent exchange, right?"

As you said, Brother Edward seems to have gained nothing, his brother lost his left leg, his younger brother lost his entire body, and his mother was not resurrected...... But the meaning that the author wants to express is already very clear! The two Edward brothers exchanged their reckless behavior for a message that the dead cannot be resurrected! Maybe you still think that this is not an equivalent exchange at all, but it is indeed an equivalent exchange!"

> Like the ups and downs of food, you can only know if you have tasted it yourself!" Takahashi Makoto took over the uncle's words, "Maybe the two brothers in the comics feel that the price they paid did not get the equivalent existence, but in fact, it was only because what they got was too different from what they expected, so there was such a result!"

"The uncle's face was full of joy, after all, anyone who can understand his own thoughts will have a sense of intimacy!

Uncle has always had a crush on the big sister next door, and he has paid a lot silently, but the big sister is just smiling at you......" Makoto Takahashi showed a smile on his face, "The price that the uncle paid was only the warm smile of the big sister, because Uncle you are already satisfied in your heart, so it can be regarded as an equivalent exchange, right?"

& I really want to agree with your idea, but ......" Uncle suddenly reacted, stood up a little annoyed, and rubbed Takahashi Makoto's head fiercely, "Little ghosts should have the thinking of little ghosts, these adult things are not something you should think about now!

&Ah, chatting with the administrator or something, is it only a nine-fold discount?" Takahashi Makoto took out a note full of information from his pocket and handed it to the uncle, "Let's exchange it at an equal price!

"The uncle took the note, his face suddenly showed joy, "Seven folds are no problem! Ah Cheng, thank you! If you have time in the future, remember to come often!"

&Is it an equivalent exchange?" Makoto Takahashi smiled and waved his hand, "Now, uncle, what you said just now is the perception of Fullmetal Alchemist...... In fact, it's the reason why I liked this comic in my previous life!"

"Uncle was happy, but looked at Makoto Takahashi with some doubts, "......What do you mean in your previous life?" Did you tell me something last time?"

&It's what I told you...... "When Makoto Takahashi was about to say something, the phone rang!

&Ah, curious little kitten, it looks like you've fallen into a trap!" Makoto Takahashi looked at the caller ID, a smile appeared on his face, "Uncle will talk to you again when he has time! Now I'm going to educate a good one, a kitten who likes to steal food!"

&Treat girls, but be gentle, Makoto!" The uncle showed a smile on his face that all men understand, and gave Makoto Takahashi a thumbs up with a wicked smile.

......& This can't be done!" A cold light flashed in Makoto Takahashi's eyes, "After all, the other party is the minion of the Ogata Demon King, and he wants to become a companion, but he wants to go through a test! After all, ...... It's an equivalent exchange, isn't it?"
