When Yu Kamiya was setting the specific settings on the perimeter sign of the original painting of the blackened giant wolf Schiff, he heard the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the tile floor, and his pace was not fast but maintained a steady rhythm. In an instant, the image of the capable short-haired woman popped up in his mind, and every move did not drag the slightest bit of mud and water, and the cold gaze under the black-rimmed glasses was only almost stubbornly solemn.

"Kamiya-kun, did you finish those original painting projects assigned by Emitsu during your work time?" Aoi Morishita, who was dressed in a gray-black women's suit, walked to Yuu Kamiya's desk, and when he saw the blackened giant wolf Shifu he drew on the table, he frowned slightly unhappily and raised his slender and heroic willow eyebrows, and his unsmiling serious appearance was full of the taste of a strong woman.

Yu Kamiya packed up the original painting he had drawn privately as usual, and handed over a corrected original painting that had been completed to Aoi Morishita and laughed embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, because there's really nothing to do, but this is not the teacher's original painting topic but the original painting I used for practice." ”

Morishita Aoi took the corrected original painting submitted by Yu Kamiya with both hands, and after a cursory flip through it, he put it on the folder he was holding in his arms and prepared to hand it over to Uehara Eizuki for review. She couldn't find the slightest mistake in the corrected original painting submitted by Yu Kamiya, and if she were to give a rating of her original painting and Yuu Kamiya's revised original painting, then Yuu Kamiya's work would surely win without any suspense.

It's hard to imagine that in just one month, a rookie concept artist has grown to the point where even she needs to look up to it. Aoi Morishita's heart felt a little uncomfortable, she had worked hard to get today's results and was surpassed by others talking and laughing, which was very difficult for a person like her to be strict with herself. She often looked at Yu Kamiya's revised original painting and comforted herself: "Kamiya-kun is just a character in the original painting of "Mr. Onigiri Superman", and it is impossible to compare with himself in other mobilization original painting experience. ”

Morishita Aoi sighed heavily, her originally serious appearance was a little more fragile and tired, she picked up the thick folder in her hand and gently touched Kamiya Yu's hair and said lightly: "Don't overdo it, you know she doesn't like this type of person." ”

Yu Kamiya reflexively shrunk his neck, feeling the gentle force coming from the top of his head, he was stunned for a moment: "I thought that Senpai Morishita would say some harsh words to teach me a lesson." ”

Aoi Morishita was accustomed to such a statement, and she lifted the short black hair in her ear and asked back with displeasure, "Why do I always make such a harsh impression on others?" Eizuki is, and so is Kamiya-kun. Since Kamiya-kun has done his job well, no matter what position I stand on, I am not qualified to say that kind of thing, isn't that the profession of an original artist? ”

"Because Morishita-senpai always looks very serious." Yu Kamiya looked at her seriously and said.

"It's not a compliment for women." Morishita Aoi shook her head wordlessly, not looking interested in this kind of praise. Today, Japan's repressive social model has discriminated against women of low status, and the term strong woman is more of a satire on a remarkable woman than a compliment.

――Should I brush up my friendship at this time?

Of course, Yu Kamiya, who has normal emotional intelligence, realized this, and after smiling bitterly in his heart, he replied seriously: "No, I think the current Morishita seniors are very attractive. ”

Morishita Aoi glanced at his face, smiled freely, returned to his usual seriousness, and continued to knock Kamiya Yu's head with the document and said, "Feminine charm, do I still have that kind of thing." Okay, Kamiya-kun doesn't need to comfort me, I'll go and submit these original paintings to Emaeki for review. With that, he turned and left the office.

- This is a failure to brush up on favorability.

Yu Kamiya touched his chin and laughed at himself in his heart, this is not a graphic novel, Aoi Morishita is a mature woman, and naturally she will not be depressed to the point of death or life for other people's opinions, for her this is just a normal way of life.

・・・・・・

Uehara Edukitsu picks up a private original painting submitted by Yu Kamiya, the original scene is a short-haired girl holding a giant mechanical scythe, and her sunny smile seems to be able to cross the boundaries of reality and infect others.

This original painting can only be said to be skilled and exquisite in terms of painting, but it has an extremely rare quality - expressiveness, and all the people who can depict this quality in the industry are master level original artists in the original painting industry. The style of this original painting is exquisite, and it doesn't look like it was used for animation, but judging from the text description around the original painting, it seems to be another animated character sketch.

"The teacher is very familiar with Western Gothic and Baroque design, so I would like to ask the teacher to make more detailed modifications based on this character." Yu Kamiya said earnestly.

"Use." Uehara asked softly with a frowning willow eyebrow.

"Create small, stand-alone animated works." Yu Kamiya replied honestly.

Hearing this, Uehara Ezuki raised her head and stared at Kamiya Yu, and her tone turned to a serious and asked, "Kamiya-kun, as an animation producer, should know the meaning of that sentence just now, even if it is a small animation, it is not something that can be made by one person." ”

Yu Kamiya stood in front of his desk and said calmly, "Of course I know, please rest assured that I have made a lot of preparations." This animation is just a short film similar to a promotional video, and it doesn't take much effort. ”

Uehara Ezuki looked at Kamiya Yu's eyes for a long time, lowered his eyes slightly, and said, "I understand, then please give me a week, and I will give Kamiya-kun a satisfactory answer." ”

"Thank you, teacher." Although he expected that she would not refuse, Uehara Ezuki's personal promise still made him greatly relieved.

After Kamiya Yu pushed the door out, Uehara Ezuki looked at Ruby Rose's original painting with a very serious expression, and she could feel Kamiya Yu's amazing growth in the creation of the original painting from the clues of the original painting.

"Little liar, if it's just an independent animated short, do you need a character of this level? It's the first time I've seen Kamiya-kun's serious look, so I should be looking forward to the animated short film you mentioned. ”

Uehara Ezuki covered her mouth with a long sleeve and chuckled, her soft and serious eyes rarely showed cunning, and she felt happy from the bottom of her heart about the growth of Kamiya Yu: "This is a reward for your growth, and it's really getting more and more interesting." ”
