Chapter 146. What crime have I committed?! (8000 words)
To be honest, when Suzuki Yu said this, his tone was actually very calm.
It's not so much a provocation as it is that she's telling a fact.
Yes... There's no way Tsukasa Higashino can win her.
This is a full month and a half time difference, and Higashino Tsukasa is not an immortal.
If you take long-distance running as an analogy, it is that Higashino first let her run for forty-five days, and then just set off.
For such a long time, Tsukasa Higashino wants to catch up with her, and also overtake her...?
Do you really think Tsukasa Higashino drives a sports car?
After all, a month and a half, there are so many things that can be prepared in it.
Cases, techniques, evidence, and common sense of drawing lawyer comics...
Tsukasa Higashino only has two weeks, so what can he touch?
I guess you can't even figure out common sense, right?
Suzuki has also said before that she is a fan of Tsukasa Higashino - this is not polite, but true.
She bought a lot of single copies of "Midnight Bell" at home, just to contribute sales to Higashino Division.
Because "Midnight Bell" is the work that she likes and admires.
After all, it can't be compared, Suzuki Yu will never die with a duck's hard mouth.
But this time is different.
This time, Higashino Tsukasa really didn't have the slightest capital that could be compared with her.
That's why she was so sure.
But after hearing Suzuki Yu's words, Higashino Tsukasa just smiled in the end: "It's okay, what if you win?" β
What if you winββ?
Hearing this, Suzuki Yu also announced directly to Higashino Tsukasa when he left: "Then I'm going to beat Higashino-sensei to a pulp, and then let you prepare a new manga seriously." β
She was angry.
The reason for the anger is also childish.
What if it wins?
You're just kidding me, how can there be such a lucky thing?
Why did you win me?
Suzuki Yu's personality is more sincere.,Usually don't care much about other things.,But in the comics.,She's really very serious.γ
So she trotted all the way, followed by a panting Furuta Shinji: "Wait a minute... Mr. Shumototo, what are you doing in such a hurry? β
"I'm going back to drawing comics."
Suzuki Yu was really angry, she glanced at the faculty office behind her, and her tone was a little incredible: "Why do you say he beat me?" Editor-in-chief Furuta. β
β... It's good that you don't say this..."Furuta Shinji shook his head, a little speechless.
Originally, Suzuki Yu had promised not to talk nonsense after meeting Tsukasa Higashino.
The result?
Beat it all to the ground, and this kind of thing is said.
Furuta Shinji was really a little desperate.
It's really hard to be the editor-in-chief of Fuji Press.
I feel like my hair is going to fall out.
After that, he had to make a phone call to apologize to Tsukasa Higashino.
But.
Looking at Suzuki Yu's confident appearance, as well as what she said to Tsukasa Higashino just now, he also felt a little more confident.
Mr. Higashino of Urashima Publishing is certainly very powerful.
But the Fuji Publishing's Fuji is not weak.
And we've been preparing for so long in advance - can your grass platform team still tear us down?
He came to self-confidence, and also encouraged Suzuki Yu a few words, asking her to work harder, strive to defeat Tsukasa Higashino, and raise him Fuji Publishing House to the position of the three major manga publishers, replacing Urashima Publishing House.
On the other hand, Tsukasa Higashino couldn't cry or laugh.
At first, he didn't know what Suzuki was looking for him.
As a result, I didn't expect that the other party actually persuaded me to give up.
However, there was no provocation in the other party's tone, so Higashino didn't care much about it.
He will still go according to his own plan, and release when he wants.
And he doesn't think that "Winner is Justice" will not be able to beat the other party's comics.
In addition, the other party can be regarded as a declaration of war, although Higashino Tsukasa doesn't care, of course there will still be competitiveness.
Then take a look at next week, Urashima Press and Fuji Press... The lawyer over there is more appealing to readers.
......
In the following week, Tsukasa Higashino did not go to Ryoka Konoe, who had already confirmed the relationship between men and women, but explained her individual reasons, and then fully devoted himself to the creation of "Winner is Justice".
Kensuke Komimon, who did anything to win, mortgaged his real estate for 30 million yen in the name of justice, just to ask Kensuke Komimen to help take over the case...
The whole plot went smoothly.
The foreshadowing of various reversals was buried one by one.
And thenβ
"What? Mr. Higashino, have you already drawn "The Winner is Justice"? β
Hosokawa Koharu, who received the call, was a little confused, and she glanced at the time.
This... There are still three or four days left before the deadline.
Originally, she thought that Tsukasa Higashino would definitely have to submit the manuscript, but she didn't expect that Tsukasa Higashino would be completed today.
"Good, good... I'll be here right now, so please wait. Hosokawa Koharu hung up the phone and left in a hurry.
Looking at the back of Hosokawa Koharu leaving, several editors who had been paying attention to this side got together, and then they discussed it in a whisper.
"Higashino Printer delivered the manuscript so quickly? It's too fast this time, right? I've heard that the first episode of his comic is forty or fifty pages. β
One of the editors sighed.
"Otherwise, how can it be called Higashino printer? Isn't the meaning clear? Even the printer is not as fast as him. β
An editor next to him looked surprised.
"I heard that Mr. Higashino drew a lawyer-type manga this time, but I don't know what will happen when the final product comes out. And isn't Shumoto Fuji Sensei also going to serialize a new work? They really bumped into each other this time. β
After all, he is the author of the pillar, and it has attracted many editors to discuss it whenever there is a stir.
But the discussion didn't last long.
Hosokawa Koharu came back after going out for more than forty minutes, and when she came back, she still brought the original paper bag handed over to her by Tsukasa Higashino.
"Editor Hosokawa, could you please print a copy of Higashino-sensei's original manuscript for us as well?" An editor who has a good relationship with Hosokawa made a request.
They were all curious about what Higashino's completely transformed work looked like.
"Needless to say, it's not troublesome, it's a good thing to have everyone's help to review the manuscript together, brainstorming." Hosokawa Koharu did not hesitate and agreed directly.
She's telling the truth.
Having her review Higashino's manuscript alone inevitably bring some subjective factors and cannot be completely neutral.
In addition, the editor-in-chief of Urashima must also ask for an original manuscript, so it is not troublesome to print it easily.
She quickly printed the manuscript and distributed it to the editors, and did not forget to send a copy to the editor-in-chief Urashima, who looked here from time to time.
"Editor-in-chief Urashima, this is the original manuscript of Higashino-sensei's "Winner is Justice". Hosokawa Koharu handed the original manuscript of "Victory is Justice" to the editor-in-chief of Urashima.
"Really...?" Urashima, the editor-in-chief, coughed dryly, looking at the original manuscript of "The Winner is Justice" in front of him, and felt a little nervous inexplicably.
This time it's not just a simple comic book.
It is also related to the 'battle to the death' between Urashima Press and Fuji Press.
He hadn't slept well in the past few days, and as soon as he lay down, his mind was full of Furuta Shinji's big bald head laughing rampantly in front of him - Higashino Tsukasa Shin Manga died violently and was crushed by Shumoto Fuji Shin Manga.
Every time he dreamed of this, he would suddenly wake up from his dream, and then he had a relative-no way, it was indeed his mistake that the other party poached the tree vine.
And in the same way, the editor-in-chief of Urashima also wants to kick Furuta Shinji in the ass hard, so that he knows that without Shumoto Fuji, Urashima Publishing House still has a Higashino Division.
Because people are selfish, they naturally have tempers.
Of course, the editor-in-chief of Urashima does not want to see his nemesis have the last laugh.
But when the original manuscript was really in front of him, the editor-in-chief of Urashima couldn't afford to open it and read it.
What if I can't beat it?
He is in this mood, and Hosokawa Koharu next to him is naturally similar.
She was also a little worried about the transformation of Tsukasa Higashino's manga.
But when I watched the draft storyboard before, I didn't have any problems...
She tried to pull herself together and took her manuscript to her desk for review.
But before he could take two steps, Hosokawa Koharu was stopped by the editor-in-chief of Urashima.
"Editor Hosokawa, you can review the manuscript next to me."
"Huh?"
"It can also be used as an exchange after reviewing the manuscript." The editor-in-chief of Urashima had a calm and breezy face, and he didn't seem to be nervous at all.
"Ahh Good..."Feeling the indifference of the editor-in-chief of Urashima, even Hosokawa Koharu can't help but envy the other party's good attitude, no wonder he can be the editor-in-chief, this mentality alone is estimated to be incomparable to most editors.
She obeyed the instructions of the editor-in-chief of Urashima, pulled up a bench, and sat on the other side of the desk.
"Alright...", the editor-in-chief of Urashima thought to himself, and finally someone to share the pressure with.
He put down the original manuscript, then raised his hand and put it directly on the first page, without even looking at the cover, and directly began to review the manuscript.
And thenβ
Bang!!!
The heavy judge's hammer struck the wooden mat with a crunching sound.
"In the verdict, the defendant was sentenced to 10 years in prison, and the 100 days before the sentence were retained in the sentence."
"Huh?" Urashima looked at the handcuffs in his hands with a bewildered expression, then looked at the surrounding scene again, and opened his mouth wide.
It's notβ
What did the defendant say about me?
Ten years in prison?!
His face was full of bewilderment.
No... How did I become a criminal? And you're going to lock me up for 10 years?
I've been wronged, right? What crime have I committed? Ten years for so long?
The shocking facts, bewilderment, and inexplicability, the editor-in-chief of Urashima had this expression on his face.
"Mr. Tsubokura!"
Pingcana...? What is the name...?
Editor-in-Chief Urashima looked in the direction of the lawyer's seat in astonishment.
There is Dai Zhenzhizi who is looking at this side with a caring face.
Daisa Chiko?!
Isn't this a character in Higashino-sensei's manga? How to come alive.
Urashima struggled to walk towards her, but his body was inexplicably depleted, causing him to fall directly to the ground.
The world is spinning...
"Ugh."
The editor-in-chief of Urashima came back to his senses, and then he looked at the content of the first page of the manga with a surprised face.
Above is the defendant Pingcang, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison for homicide, and was so exhausted that he couldn't even stand on his feet.
"Did I put myself in the comics?"
Urashima only thought for a few seconds before coming up with this answer.
For a moment just now, I felt that the two-dimensional plane and myself were directly reversed.
It's as if I've really become Pingkura.
It's an indescribable novelty!
Interesting!
It's really fun!
He wanted to turn to the next page.
The next plot is almost the same as the previous draft storyboard of Tsukasa Higashino.
Tomoko Daisa met the actor Kensuke Komito in the car, and then listened to him say a lot of fallacies.
But unlike the draft storyboard-
Urashima, the editor-in-chief, felt as if he had become Tomoko Dai, and was full of righteous indignation and angrily protested against Kensuke Komemon's actions.
And then...
was sprayed by the other party with sharp words.
"This Gumeimen research problem is really big!" The editor-in-chief of Urashima, who felt that he was sprayed by the other party, was so angry that his teeth itched, but the other party was a character in the comics, and he couldn't drag him out and beat him if he wanted to.
He couldn't contain the throbbing in his heart, and continued to look down.
Yes.
Even if he was suppressed by Kensuke Komimon, he still couldn't control his hands and longed to look down!
This comic seems to have a magical charm! An indescribable and inexplicable sense of novel experience rushed in his heart, making him unable to control his hands at all, and wanted to continue to look down.
When he saw Dai Zhen Zhizi and Gu Mei Menyan helping to overturn the case by various means, the indescribable feeling in his heart instantly turned into a sense of pleasure.
Because the case was overturned by the editor-in-chief of Urashima himself.
He still remembers the feeling of being shackled on his hands just now, and he also remembers the deep sense of powerlessness when he was sentenced to a prison sentence.
But now... With the lawsuit getting better step by step, his mood became active again.
Even Komimon Kensuke's smiling cheap face, he felt extremely amiable and wanted to kiss him fiercely.
In the end, with the help of Kensuke Komemon, things completely turned around.
Unable to withstand the pressure from all sectors of society, the court finally brought the case back and announced the resumption of the trial.
"Beautiful!"
Urashima editor-in-chief couldn't help but clench his fists and screamed.
In the comics, the joy of Daisa Tomoko's empathy also infected him.
He finished the manga completely, and then looked at Hosokawa Koharu, who had also just finished the manga.
Both of them nodded in understanding.
If you were still a little unconfident just now.
Now, that lack of confidence is completely gone!
Because of Tsukasa Higashino's "Winner is Justice"...
It's not too pretty!
The previous "Midnight Bell" was also criticized for being too realistic and did not have the exaggerated sense of comics.
But this time, "Winner is Justice" is completely different.
It's more than realistic.
There are also very exaggerated comic techniques in it.
Especially when the first page of the original comic manuscript opened with lightning strikes, he directly became a prisoner inexplicably.
I was really caught off guard -
Before reading the manga, Urashima's editor-in-chief was thinking about how to fight Fuji Press.
After reading the manga, the editor-in-chief of Urashima was full of thoughts about how Urashima Publishing House would fight them.
This is a change of heart.
