Kuronomiya Akira left after reading the original manuscript of "The Lonely Gourmet".

She was in a hurry, so that Higashino couldn't help but shake his head.

He could feel that the other party seemed to be a little anxious...

But the more anxious you are about creating this kind of thing, the easier it is to get across... Let's hope she doesn't take a detour.

Tsukasa Higashino's days began to become ordinary and calm again.

After they left, Higashino Tsukasa never encountered anything strange again.

The data of "Midnight Bell" continued to rise, and the follow-up fifth episode also firmly maintained the first position in the reader's praise rate.

According to Hosokawa Koharu, the decline in sales of the weekly magazine "Bad Cold" has stopped, and a smooth upward curve has begun to appear - the editor-in-chief of Urashima even praised him as the author of "Midnight Bell" and Hosokawa Koharu.

There are also rumors that ""Midnight Ringer" scared the murderer to death, "And what" "Midnight Bell" caused the garbage collection rate of Japanese TV sets to continue to rise, and even a little more outrageous, some people say that he found the cursed video tape from "Midnight Bell", which is now spreading... Many rumors like that.

Similarly, there are more and more derivative creations about "Midnight Bell", which is mainly manifested in adult comics...

This made Higashino Tsukasa a little funny.

Japan really deserves to be Japan, and the adult industry has begun to follow suit with a little bit of turmoil.

What kind of discs like Sadako are also circulating outside.

Higashino Tsukasa thought that he didn't announce Sadako's gender setting, and if they knew that Sadako was actually a yin and yang person, it was estimated that many people would be scared to death.

But... Tsukasa Higashino actually doesn't plan to dig deep into the series "Midnight Bell", after all, "Midnight Bell" is also the first part is very interesting, and looking at it later, it is just a derivative work of the IP of "Midnight Bell", and it can't restore the terrifying sense of oppression of the first part at all.

Regarding the recent situation of "Midnight Bell", this is probably the case.

As for the rest worth caring about... That's probably Tsukasa Higashino, who has been harassed by tablets these days, and has a headache.

I have to say, some Japanese girls are really scary, give him a piece of chocolate, Higashino Tsukasa has this to break open and take a look, it is stuffed with black hair... It's like some kind of witchcraft spell.

As soon as this happened, Higashino Tsukasa also smiled and declined many small snacks and other things sent by girls.

It can't be helped, he doesn't want to eat something strange while eating.

Tsukasa Higashino is also a campus celebrity... There was no way, the school forced the students to watch the award ceremony that day, so that when he went to the toilet, some little boys pointed at him and discussed, 'Look who is that?' The one that went on the Asahi Shimbun'.

In addition to these things, what Higashino Tsukasa is most concerned about now is the comic he has in his hand-

"Whew... Finally finished. Tsukasa Higashino stopped the last stroke, exhaled, and looked at the original manuscript of "The Lonely Gourmet" in front of him.

Yes, he finally finished the original manuscript of "The Lonely Gourmet" before the monthly magazine "Aoba" closed for a week, and the subsequent outline draft storyboard was all available.

This lonely gourmand he chose the Japanese food pavilion that Konoe Ryoka took him to last time as the main background, and the salt-grilled mackerel in it is indeed a must, he recalled the taste of the salt-grilled mackerel and butter mushroom soup, the fragrance and smell...

You look at the comics as if you're eating them in your own mouth – there's nothing like eating with your eyes.

"Okay..."Tsukasa Higashino sorted out the manuscript in his hand with satisfaction, and turned over to bed to rest satisfied.

Tomorrow he will personally go to Urashima Publishing House and hand over the manuscript to Hosokawa Koharu.

......

Following.

The day of the day always passes quickly, and after dealing with Gohara Middle School, Tsukasa Higashino also walked out of the classroom and prepared to go to Urashima Publishing House.

But before he could take two steps, someone behind him greeted him—

"Higashino-sensei!"

Well...? What is this called?

Tsukasa Higashino turned around, and at a glance he saw Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara walking towards him.

"Takahashi-san, Fujiwara-san, good afternoon." Higashino greeted with a smile.

"Good afternoon." Aoi Fujiwara glanced at Tsukasa Higashino's finished outfit, and asked curiously, "Isn't Higashino-san going to the studio?" ”

"I have something to do today, and I have asked Mr. Gangye for leave... Are you two going back? Higashino asked her.

Shouldn't this be, doesn't Yumi Takahashi still have kendo activities? Why did you suddenly rush out with Aoi Fujiwara?

Tsukasa Higashino was a little curious.

"Ahh If you don't say it, I'll forget! I'm going to beat that bastard up! Yumi Takahashi patted her head and suddenly realized: "No, let's go, Aoi." ”

Beat people???

At first glance, Tsukasa Higashino thought he had misheard.

A little girl's family, why do you think about fighting every day, he turned to look at Aoi Fujiwara next to him, and felt that this little girl, who had always been very calm, should not follow Yumi Takahashi to mess around.

As a result, what Higashino didn't expect was that Aoi Fujiwara actually said 'um' and had to follow behind Yumi Takahashi.

This made Higashino Tsukasa a little surprised.

What's going on? Fujiwara Aoi also has a little bit of a bright brain?

Tsukasa Higashino followed with his things, after all, Aoi Fujiwara and Yumi Takahashi helped him in "The Lonely Gourmet", and often gave him some impressions of "Midnight Bell", he can't really watch two little girls fight, right?

"Fujiwara-san, what the hell happened, Takahashi-san, why are you messing around with her?" Tsukasa Higashino asked.

Seeing Yumi Takahashi's menacing appearance carrying the sword bag, he was also a little worried.

"This matter can only be solved by beating the other party." Aoi Fujiwara replied with a sideways head.

"It's very uncivilized to fight, and you two are girls, so it's even more uncivilized to do it."

Tsukasa Higashino tried to persuade: "And who are you going to fight?" Doesn't it make sense to make sense? ”

The problem can only be solved by fighting...?

Fighting is actually very irrational behavior in the eyes of Higashino Tsukasa, and even if Higashino Tsukasa can fight, he rarely fights.

After all, if you hurt the other party or the other party hurt yourself, you will lose.

So Tsukasa Higashino doesn't like to fight.

"It doesn't make sense." Fujiwara Aoi replied simply, and then suddenly raised his head: "See." ”

Well? See?

Tsukasa Higashino looked up a little strangely.

Then he saw a petite figure with short hair in the uniform of the Hokugiku School standing in front of the school gate.

Konoe Ryokana?

Higashino Tsukasa was stunned for a moment, and then he saw a young man standing in front of Ryoka Konoe.

The young man had short haircuts, covered his eyebrows, and looked okay.

The young man seemed to be talking to Ryoka Konoe, and his emotions suddenly became agitated as he spoke. He raised his hand and slammed it at Konoe Ryoka's face.

Syllable!

The crisp sound directly slapped Konoe Lianghua to the ground.

That bastard!

Seeing this scene, Yumi Takahashi couldn't bear it anymore, she just wanted to hand over the things in her hand to Fujiwara Aoi and rush up to give the other party two blows, but suddenly her hand sank, and she had an extra shoulder bag on her body.

Then Yumi Takahashi saw Tsukasa Higashino rush over and give the other party a kick, and the momentum sank, and he directly kicked the young man to the ground.

"If you have something to say, say it! Why are you beating people?! ”

Tsukasa Higashino asked the other party with a face full of incomprehension, and made up two feet on the other party's stomach.

The screams from the other party made both Aoi Fujiwara and Yumi Takahashi open their mouths wide.

Their minds are confused.

No... Didn't Tsukasa Higashino just say that fighting is uncivilized, don't fight?
