Chapter 159. Pretty! It's so beautiful! (4900 words)

Tsukasa Higashino took a look with the people in the animation production team and felt that these people were still working very well, and everyone seemed to be in good spirits.

And when the production team saw the boss of the creative team like Tsukasa Higashino coming to say hello, they hurriedly put down the work at hand, shook hands and smiled.

Tsukasa Higashino may not know who they are, but they do know how loud the name Tsukasa Higashino is in the industry.

This time, he directly took over the script production work, maybe he will take over the position of supervisor next time? It is certainly necessary to take the initiative to build a good relationship.

Seeing that Tsukasa Higashino had a good relationship with the production team over there, Tsukasashi Motohashi here was also free, and began to flip through the storyboard picture book handed in by Tsukasa Higashino.

The storyboard is very thick, so he just picked a few places that need attention and looked at them carefully.

After reading it, he closed the picture book with satisfaction, and then exhaled, and only then did he have a deeper understanding of Higashino's ability - this person is inevitably too powerful.

If the storyboard picture book handed in by Tsukasa Higashino before can be said to be a motorcycle, then this new picture book can be said to be a Harley-Davidson motorcycle...

The other party's progress is so fast that it is so fast that Motohashi Daohong can't react.

"Is this final? Brother Higashino? Honhashi turned the pages and felt that he was already very good, so he asked Higashino.

"I can't find anything to change for the time being." Higashino nodded in response.

This animation script is the best work he can change so far, and it would not be beautiful to modify it again.

"Okay, Omura-kun, please change this storyboard picture book into a script, and choose a voice actor to use it when the time comes."

Handle the script well, and the production team of "Midnight Bell" has nothing else to do for the time being.

Even if we have to start work, it will be tomorrow.

Originally, Honbashi Daohiro also wanted to ask Tsukasa Higashino to go to dinner, and by the way, press a motorcycle to relax.

But Tsukasa Higashino politely declined his request, and he still had the original manuscripts of "Winner is Justice" and "Lonely Gourmet" to draw, and of course he couldn't continue to waste time.

After saying hello, Tsukasa Higashino left Tokyo Animation Productions.

There's also a particularly interesting episode in this.

When Tsukasa Higashino left the company, an agent from an entertainment agency company came over with his voice actor to say hello to Tsukasa Higashino.

After that, he handed over a business card, which probably meant that he hoped that Higashino Tsukasa would take care of him in the future.

This made Higashino Tsukasa amused and sighed a little.

This industry is really small, small, but realistic.

As soon as the news of the animated movie "Midnight Bell" came out, the news of him as the main creator of the script had already spread.

Recalling the constant bowing of the agent and the voice actor next to him just now, Higashino couldn't help but shake his head.

But sighing and sighing, "The Winner is Justice" still has to continue to be painted.

"The Winner is Justice" has now finished the ninth episode and has reached the stage of the tenth episode.

And the overall plot of "Winner is Justice" has also entered a relatively stable stage.

This is reflected in the readers' praise vote of "Bad Cold", which is-

"The winner is justice" has 671 readers' positive votes this week? Pretty much the same as last week, nothing has changed? ”

After receiving the news, Hosokawa Koharu stood up, looking quite surprised.

She sat back down, frowning.

This is the third time that "Winner is Justice" has achieved the same result.

The votes for the first two weeks were 672 and 670 respectively, which is basically unchanged from this week.

Although "Winner is Justice" is still not ranked first, but...

"That's still not right." Hosokawa Koharu pinched his chin in thought.

When she was in charge of "Midnight Bell" before, she had never encountered this situation, you must know that the number of votes for "Midnight Bell" has risen all the way with time.

Like "The Winner is Justice", it is stable at the level of 670 votes, which is basically unchanged.

If other editors can read minds, they won't be by Hosokawa Koharu - 670 votes is already a popular work, and you're still not satisfied with Hosokawa Koharu?

"But just look at the plot... Higashino-sensei's plot has been fine for the past few weeks..."Hosokawa Koharu pinched his chin incomprehensibly, feeling puzzled.

"Winner is Justice" is not as scary as "Midnight Bell", so Hosokawa Koharu can also hold it and study it all the time.

The plot has not diminished in recent weeks, on the contrary, it is quite exciting, but why did it get to the voting stage?

"Could it be that it is true that as the outside world says, is it because the main plot of "Winner is Justice" is not clear?"

Hosokawa Koharu thought of an article in a magazine that commented on Tsukasa Higashino's "Winner is Justice" -

The author commented: "Winner is Justice" is indeed a work that is difficult for many cartoonists to surpass in terms of plot and painting work, but the more this is the case, the more we can see its shortcomings, that is, the main plot of "Winner is Justice" is not clear. Throughout the first nine episodes, we can only see Komimon Kensuke arguing with Dai Zhen Chiko and overturning the case for others, and feel that kind of cheerful feeling.

But after the excitement, we can't help but think of this problem, that is, putting aside the case and bickering, the whole "Winner is Justice" has almost no main plot. This is the weakness of "Winner is Justice", but it was covered up by Higashino's good painting skills. But if the problem of the main plot cannot be solved, the comic "Winner is Justice" is actually in jeopardy.

To be honest, when I saw this review article at the time, Hosokawa Koharu also felt that it should be an advertorial article made by a hostile publishing house to suppress Higashino Division, so he didn't have to care about it at all.

But when the number of votes for "Winner is Justice" has remained unchanged for a long time, Hosokawa Koharu finally feels that something is wrong.

Could it be that there is no main plot?

Hosokawa Koharu was puzzled.

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally called Higashino Division, wanting to ask him what he thinks, and by the way, analyze the current situation - if there is a problem, we have to communicate with each other to solve it, and I can't solve it if I hold it back.

As soon as the phone call from her side came, Higashino Tsukasa immediately connected: "Hey? Is it Hosokawa editor? What's the matter? ”

"Hmm... I have some questions to ask Mr. Higashino, but by the way, this week's readers' praise for "Winner is Justice" has 671 votes this week, and it is still the first reader's praise for "Bad Cold" Weekly. ”

"Well, isn't that good?" Tsukasa Higashino over there replied without much thought.

yes, it's number one again this week, isn't that great?

His 'very good' undoubtedly killed Hosokawa Koharu's desire to ask a question.

And... Hosokawa Koharu was also a little confused.

Tsukasa Higashino shouldn't be like this.

It stands to reason that at this time, Higashino should look very dissatisfied with this result, and then say: "I will work harder." This is how Tsukasa Higashino used to strive for progress.

Hosokawa Koharu hesitated for a while, and then asked in a bit of a daze, "Higashino-sensei... Are you happy with your current results? But I'll tell you upfront, it's been three weeks since that steady run. You must know that during the period of "Midnight Bell", the number of votes will rise every week. ”

Higashinoji's sense was very keen, and he immediately understood the meaning of Hosokawa Koharu's words, so he immediately replied: "It's not that I'm very satisfied with my current results, but in the current situation, it can only be like this for the time being." ”

β€œ... Does Mr. Higashino know the reason why the number of votes does not increase or decrease? Is it the reason for the main plot? Hosokawa Koharu was a little surprised.

She's not stupid, listen to what Higashino Tsukasa means... He seems to have anticipated this situation in "Winner is Justice" for a long time?

"Well, I thought this was happening before I painted... It's really related to the main story. ”

Higashino Tsukasa paused for a moment, and continued for a moment: "The reason why "Midnight Bell" rises every week is because its main plot is progressive layer by layer, layer by layer. But "The Winner is Justice" is different, the plot of "The Winner is Justice" is a unit drama. So far, there is no fixed main plot. ”

Yes, the plot of "Winner is Justice" is different from that of "Midnight Bell", it is a unit drama composed of one story after another.

As a comic genre, its advantage is that each story is brilliantly written and interesting, so the number of fans is very stable.

But the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, the number of fans of "Winner is Justice" is too stable, and it will not be like "Midnight Bell", where the plot progresses layer by layer, and the horror is superimposed step by step, and in the end, it is getting more and more exciting, and the number of votes is increasing.

β€œ... I see. Hosokawa Koharu just heard the word unit drama, and probably understood the different reasons why the votes for "Winner is Justice" have been stagnant.

But then came another question-

"Higashino-sensei, have you figured out how to solve this problem?"

"It does have an idea." Tsukasa Higashino nodded with a smile: "Since readers feel that the main plot is insufficient, let's supplement the main plot." ”

His words made Hosokawa Koharu even more incomprehensible.

Just now you also said that because it is a unit drama, it is normal for the main plot to be insufficient.

As a result, you now say that you want to add the main story...?

Isn't that a paradox? Guessing here?

"Rest assured, there is a way." Tsukasa Higashino said.

His self-confidence is well-founded and not unfounded.

Because it is also the next sentence, it is another scene in "The Winner is Justice"-

Shimadzu Real Estate, a non-performing company, repairs high-rise buildings, and the sunshine in residential areas is affected, but Tomoko Daisa insists on the justice in her heart, helps the residents fight for the right to sunshine, and argues with Kensuke Komimen under the sunset.

And in this paragraph..."The winner is justice" The main plot of the comic will really be revealed.

Today's readers just watch the funny bickering between Dai Zhenzhizi and Kensuke Komeimen in "The Winner is Justice", and watch them overturn the case for others and have fun.

And the main plot of the comic "Winner is Justice" is completely uninvestigated... This was done intentionally by Tsukasa Higashino.

The purpose is to let the reader see that the tenth episode has a sense of surprise like a reversal of 'oh, so it is'.

Hearing that Tsukasa Higashino had already said this, Hosokawa Koharu also hesitated for a while and chose to believe Tsukasa Higashino's judgment.

It's a mule and a horse, and the tenth word is pulled out for a walk.

And just like that, the week passed quickly.

Monday... This is the day of the release of "Bitter Cold" again.

Hiroshi Kanzaki is now a complete fan of Tsukasa Higashino, and he feels uncomfortable when he can't read Tsukasa Higashino's manga for a day, and he has the kind of withdrawal reaction of a smoker.

So today, he also bought "Bad Cold" early, ready to take a look at the new episode of "The Winner is Justice".

It's still an interesting plot with wonderful flips.

It's really interesting.

Just when Kanzaki Hiroshi thought that this time "Winner is Justice" also ended with the victory of the exaggerated and funny Kensuke Komimon, he suddenly saw that Tomoko Daisa in the comics actually found a pregnant woman who was fighting for the right to sunshine, hoping that she would not give up and resist Kensuke Komimen, and could not just give up the right to sunshine.

And this made Kanzaki Hiroshi can't help but raise his eyebrows.

There is also an indescribable uncomfortable feeling in my heart.

Logically speaking, he really wants to support Dai Zhenzhizi, after all, the right to sunshine is something that everyone has to work hard for.

But from the perspective of a serious office worker, Dai Zhenzhizi's behavior is not responsible at all.

Because she belongs to the law firm of the actor Kensuke Komimon.

What she is doing now is tantamount to putting the interests of Komimon and her clients at the expense of her clients, and only knowing the pursuit of justice and truth.

Hiroshi Kanzaki turned to the next page, and then there was a sigh in his heart-

Dai Zhen Chiko's behavior did not hide from Komimen Kensuke, at this time he stood at the door, his hands on his chest, and looked at Dai Zhen Chiko very calmly.

And so the next scene begins.

"Why?" Kensuke Komimon's tone was calm, and although he was smiling, his expression was cold.

"For the sake of justice. I became a lawyer to protect justice. Dai Zhen Zhizi blew her nose, and her voice was flat, revealing a sense of refusal to give in.

"Really?" Kensuke Komimen smiled sarcastically, and then said to Tomoko Daisama: "Follow me." ”

He took Tomoko Daisa to the construction site of the high-rise apartment, and then pointed to the middle-aged woman in one of the old civil engineering shops and said, "Look, this is Miss Tomoko Terada from the Terada Public Works Store." ”

"Her husband died in a construction accident, and she is raising her children in junior high school alone, and the life of this old store is hanging by a thread, and the high-rise apartment renovated by Shimadzu Real Estate is her only glimmer of hope."

"Huh...?" Daisama Tomoko looked shaken.

"If that pregnant woman had followed your advice and put Shimadzu Property in crisis, she would have committed suicide. In other wordsβ€”"

Kensuke Komito turned to look at Tomoko Daisama: "All you did was put her to death." ”

Dai Zhen Zhizi opened her mouth, showing an expression that wanted to refute, but when the words came to her mouth, she couldn't say it at all.

The strength is also constantly being drawn.

In this case, Kensuke Komimen didn't intend to stop, he narrowed his eyes, and his voice was as sharp as a knife:

"The so-called justice in your mouth is just condescending sympathy, but mercy for the poor people who appear in front of you every time."

This sentence made Kanzaki Hiroshi, who was watching all this happen, couldn't help but nod.

Helped a pregnant woman, but killed the housewife who ran a small shop, is this kind of justice still called justice?

Dai Zhen Zhizi looked confused, she raised her head: "But, if you deny this kind of behavior, then where is the justice?" ”

Komimen Kensuke looked up with a serious face: "We are not gods, how can we know that kind of thing." Your so-called justice probably only exists in tokusatsu hero dramas. ”

Justice doesn't exist in reality, at most it only exists in special effects plots like Ultraman.

This overly realistic sentence tightened Kanzaki's heart – because that's what reality is.

Justice is often long overdue, leaving only the dregs on the floor.

In this situation, Kensuke Komemon put his hands behind his back and left the last sentence: "Fight for the interests of your client." That's all we lawyers can do, and we shouldn't do anything that goes beyond the bounds. And what you have done, there is no doubt that the line has been crossed. If my efforts are in vain because of your actions, remove your lawyer's badge from me. ”

Justice and the duties of a lawyer, which side do you choose?

This is a question from Kensuke Komemon.

It also makes Kanzaki Hiroshi feel a sense of exhilaration.

He always felt that this time "Winner is Justice" gave him a completely different feeling.

The whole unit drama suddenly has more main plots.

The innocent, enthusiastic, loving and righteous Dai Zhen Zhizi is the childhood figure that many people once yearned for, immature but touching.

On the other hand, Komeimen Kensuke represents more of their post-growth reality, rational appearance - greedy for money, lustful, and greedy for utilitarianism...

Komimen Kensuke takes Dai Zhen Chiko to continue learning, and in this process of continuous learning, maybe the current naΓ―ve, enthusiastic, and righteous Dai Zhen Chiko will slowly change and become another Komimen Kensuke.

It's a bit brutal, but that's the reality...

A reality that no one can change.

Although this sentence is as interesting as the previous words, when Tsukasa Higashino shows such a bloody reality in front of Hiroshi Kanzaki, he only feels that his heart is very blocked...

The old thief of Dongye is really still an old thief of Dongye, even if the painting is funny, but he still has to hide a knife in this cotton, and he will stab you if he suddenly rushes out.

Butβ€”

"Beautiful! It's so beautiful! ”

Kanzaki Hiroshi looked at the words "The Winner is Justice" and couldn't help but sigh again.

Because it's really pretty...
