Chapter 253. It's like visiting a kiln... (4000 words)

I have to say that the supper prepared by Ryoka Konoe really had a miraculous effect, and Tsukasa Higashino hurriedly finished drawing the original manuscript of "Unnatural Death" next week after eating.

And to be honest, the things made by Konoe Lianghua this time taste very good, the rice balls on the edge of the triangle circle are wrapped in seaweed slices, and it is estimated that sushi vinegar is used to flavor them, and the meat floss is stuffed in the middle, and the rice is very soft, probably slightly seasoned with mirin, and there is a little sweet and sour taste in the mouth, and the half-soft and half-crisp seaweed slices on the surface are a little salty and sweet when you bite into it.

The neat triangular rice balls are well shaped, and the overall appearance even feels like a set meal (similar to a set meal) sold in a restaurant outside.

The steaming miso soup is also very good, with a yellow soup base, a few small square pieces of chopped tofu underneath, and a verdant green onion on the surface

This made Tsukasa Higashino feel a little surprised while eating.

Konoe Lianghua's cooking level is simply improving by leaps and bounds.,Obviously, I couldn't even handle a fish a few days ago.,I almost didn't tear down my own kitchen.,As a result, I surprised myself today.。

Although there is a very simple rice ball and miso soup in front of me, it is made with great care, which is just in line with the taste of Tsukasa Higashino.

This made Tsukasa Higashino wait by the door of his house for a while when he went out early the next day.

It didn't take long for Ryoka Konoe to go out, she was wearing a short-sleeved uniform from Kita Gijuku, and the lower skirt was not shortened like Yumi Takahashi or Aoi Fujiwara, but still maintained the style of a midi skirt, only revealing a small leg wrapped in black stockings at the bottom, and she wore a pair of brown loafers like most Japanese high school students.

Whether it is the man who sees it, he will probably clap his hands and nod his head, indicating that there is indeed a saying in the world that 'beautiful and delicious'.

Konoe Ryoka obviously didn't expect that Tsukasa Higashino would be waiting for her by the door today, she was stunned at first, and then her face subconsciously showed joy, and she looked at Tsukasa Higashino with those big shining eyes.

Seeing her like this, Higashino Tsukasa walked up and carefully put her black bangs in order, and greeted with a smile: "Lianghua, good morning." ”

"Ahh Good morning. As. Konoe Ryoka nodded with a flushed face.

I have to say? Konoe Ryoka's personality is really soft like a hamster? Tsukasa Higashino's hand touched her head, and she didn't feel disgusted at all? Instead, he rubbed his head gently...

"Last night's supper was good? Thank you Lianghua for making me a supper every day when you leave, it's really bothering you. ”

Tsukasa Higashino let go? Looking at the guard Lianghua, who is no taller than his chest, he thanked him.

Originally, Ryoka Konoe was still enjoying 'woo woo' with her eyes closed and being touched by Tsukasa Higashino? Hear this as a result? I couldn't help but open my eyes, looking a little surprised.

"Supper...? I haven't done that, Ace. ”

Ryoka Konoe replied bluntly.

Originally, she could have nodded and admitted without saying a word, but if she hadn't done it, she hadn't done it? She doesn't want to take credit? I don't want to deceive Tsukasa Higashino even more.

"Haven't done it?" Higashino Tsukasa obviously didn't expect that he was actually thanking the wrong person, he raised his eyebrows, and looked at Konoe Lianghua repeatedly, feeling that the other party really didn't need to lie to himself in this kind of place...

In addition, the supper has been doing really well these days, and it is no problem to say that it is exquisite.

So who made a late night snack for him?

Could it be that a thief ran into Higashino's house? Took a few things and saw him staying up late again? So I couldn't bear it and made him a meal, right?

It's unlikely.

"Really? Could that be that I was mistaken? Cool flowers. Tsukasa Higashino skipped the topic and looked at the time again? A reminder to Konoe Ryoka: "It's almost time for class." ”

“... Yes? Ryoka Konoe couldn't help but be stunned when she listened to Tsukasa Higashino's words? Then he reacted and glanced at the lady's watch on his wrist: "Rude? As... I—I'm going first! ”

After saying this, she bowed to Higashino, then quickly turned and walked away, and soon disappeared into the hallway.

During the period, because he was in too much hurry, he stumbled forward, but fortunately he finally stood firm.

This made Higashino Tsukasa smile when he saw it, but he also had some doubts in his heart...

Just as he was about to think, a girl wearing a white short-sleeved shirt appeared at the door, her long black hair was a little messy, and her beautiful eyebrows and eyes were a little melancholy: "Ace, aren't you going yet?" ”

"I'll leave right away." Tsukasa Higashino said hello to Chihaya, who had obviously not woken up yet, and touched her head again, telling her that there was today's breakfast in the refrigerator.

Feeling the palm of Tsukasa Higashino, Chihaku Higashino replied with a red face, turned around and walked into the house.

Seeing Higashino Chihaya return to the house, Higashino Tsukasa withdrew his gaze.

Is it Chihaya Higashino?

But it's not that Higashino Tsukasa hasn't seen Higashino Chihaya cook, she can't even hold a knife steadily, let alone cut tofu into pieces, Higashino Tsukasa is afraid that she will easily cut herself into pieces if she is faster.

And kneading the rice balls is not said at all.

She pinched either a long strip or was not stable at all.

If it was Chihaya Higashino who did it...

Tsukasa Higashino thought about it and left Higashino's house.

In any case, everything will be thought about after the completion of today's work.

Said to complete the work, but in fact, Higashino Tsukasa didn't have anything to finish, Higashino Studio spent a lot of favors because of Hosokawa Koharu's follow-up and found a few experienced original artists, plus several original artists trained by Higashino Tsukasa himself.

This directly reduced the pressure on Tsukasa Higashino.

"That's probably fine." Hosokawa rubbed his temples and hung up the phone.

These days, in order to find someone for Higashino Division, she spent a lot of previous favors, but the result is quite gratifying, according to Hosokawa Koharu's speculation, there will be absolutely no problem for so many artists to work together, and Higashino Tsukasa will definitely be able to complete the production of "Winner is Justice" before its release in October.

"Editor Hosokawa is still as interested in Higashino-sensei as ever." Oshima, the male editor next to him, turned around and smiled and said hello.

"It's not for Higashino-sensei's only to make high-quality signs... This is also for our publishing house. Hosokawa replied with a polite smile.

And her words were obviously ignored by the Oshima editors, after all, Hosokawa Koharu has been busy these days, and he has seen it all.

Looking for painters everywhere, spending favors, these things can not only be solved by a phone call, but also the treatment problem... These are all for Hosokawa Koharu to negotiate for Tsukasa Higashino.

If you have to say it, Hosokawa Koharu has actually been working overtime for the past few days, and he is still the kind of unconditional overtime for Higashino Division.

Why do you have to make yourself so tired?

Edit Oshima really doesn't understand.

The income of Higashino Studio is not Hosokawa Koharu's, she is equivalent to giving Higashino Tsukasa a free day job.

It's okay to help once, there's no need to help all the time.

And to be honest, when Higashino Tsukasa set up his studio, there was not a single editor in the editorial department of Urashima Publishing that was not shocked.

After all, this is no different from a self-contained portal, and it may affect some of the interests of the publishing house.

Urashima editor-in-chief also held a meeting to discuss this matter, that is, about the situation of Higashino Studio.

There were not a few editors at the meeting who were in favor of assisting Tsukasa Higashino, but Koharu Hosokawa took the initiative to stand up, saying that Tsukasa Higashino would still serialize comics at Urashima Publishing House, and it was what Urashima Publishing House should do to retain Tsukasa Higashino and assist him.

She is one of them.

After consideration, the editor-in-chief of Urashima did not openly agree with Hosokawa Koharu's statement, but secretly took the initiative to acquiesce to her series of actions to assist Higashino Studio.

There's really no way around it.

Because Tsukasa Higashino can leave Urashima Press, as long as he draws good comics, he will be a national-level manga author no matter which publishing house he is in - he and Urashima Publishing House do not have the kind of constraints that resemble the long-term agreement with a TV station.

Tsukasa Higashino can leave Urashima Press, but Urashima Publishing House can't do without Tsukasa Higashino.

His comics were so popular that "Unnatural Death" was once considered the pinnacle of forensic comics, with two million copies sold in the same period, as well as many predecessors who had been serialized for many years.

So now the attitude of the editorial department of Urashima Publishing House towards Tsukasa Higashino is actually quite subtle.

There is a feeling that his own child has stiff wings and can fly, but the collective does not want him to fly everywhere.

But Hosokawa Koharu is different from these editors.

She had watched Tsukasa Higashino get to this point step by step - if she were to tell it, Tsukasa Higashino would be a little miracle.

Hosokawa Koharu certainly hopes that Tsukasa Higashino will be able to continue on his way.

It's not just the idea of becoming a famous Japanese editor, it's also the blessing of friends.

"I don't know how far Higashino-sensei can go." Hosokawa Koharu smiled on his lips, took another breath, and instead reached for a bag of manuscripts and began to review them.

The situation on Tsukasa Higashino's side has stabilized... Urashima Publishing House has also begun to acknowledge the existence of Higashino Studio, but her work has only just begun.

After being promoted to the head of the editorial team, she has too many things to do, including her own group's application for a serialized comic book meeting.

It has to be properly reviewed.

Hosokawa Koharu started working here, and Tsukasa Higashino on the other side relaxed a lot, and even took the time to listen to the report from Ryuichi Yano.

According to him, he has already established partnerships with several voice actor agencies that PW Animation has worked with before, and they are also willing to provide their voice actors to cooperate with "Winner is Justice".

But—

"Most of these voice actors are not particularly high... They probably think that the production of "Winner is Justice" will not go so smoothly, and they are unwilling to let the famous voice actors below come over to muddy the waters, but on the whole, these people are still enough to have some tricks. ”

Yano Ryuichi flipped through the dubbing materials in his hand, and his expression was quite helpless.

This is the disadvantage of the studio's beginnings, after all, no matter how much you talk about human favors and reasonableness, in essence, dubbing agencies only pay attention to profits.

Yano Ryuichi looked a little helpless, and felt that these people did have a hand in falling into the well, but Higashino Tsukasa next to him didn't care.

After all, "Winner is Justice" really doesn't need such a luxurious dubbing lineup, and it is already very good to use a few good-quality dragon sets.

As for the ruthless words now, it is not Higashino's style, and when the time comes, when the discussion of "Winner is Justice" is reached, these firms will naturally regret it a little.

Nowadays, the most important thing is the dubbing combination of Kensuke Komimon and Tomoko Dai, lawyer Miki and Kimie Sawaji.

These two pairs of lines as the protagonist group and the hostile group account for more than half of the entire animation, and they must not be ignored.

Kensuke Furumon and lawyer Miki have found good candidates, but the poor ones are Tomoko Daisama and Kimie Sawachi.

"I've put the list of female voice actors who are suitable for Tomoko Daisa and Kimime Sawachi here... Mr. Higashino, we can study and research together. Yano Ryuichi handed the list in his hand to Tsukasa Higashino and took the initiative to propose, "What do you think of Miss Iwasaki?" He has achieved good results in several works, and the stunt is dancing and singing..."

He paused, and then flipped to the next voice cast: "This Miss Hayasaka is not bad either. ”

I have to say that every time I get to this time, Tsukasa Higashino has the feeling that he is picking a young lady.

No way.

The information in hand is too detailed, height and weight are just small things, and some places are specific to cups, stunts, what you like to eat... I can't wait to count the moles on my body.

This made Higashino Tsukasa couldn't help but shake his head: "I've already decided on the candidate for Tochiko Dai, Mr. Yano, you don't have to worry." ”

"Really?" Yano Ryuichi couldn't help but glance up at Tsukasa Higashino, a little curious about the choice that Higashino Tsukasa had decided so early.

According to the general process, it should be selected at this time, and then it will be compared a little...

Dai's true chiko is the heroine after all.

"It's Riko Hasegawa." Seeing that he was really curious, Higashino didn't hide it, and replied with a smile.

"Miss Riko Hasegawa?!" Ryuichi Yano's eyes widened: "That famous ghost voice actor? ”

"Ghost voice actor?" Tsukasa Higashino was a little surprised by Yano Ryuichi's words, and he didn't quite understand what he meant.

"Uh... Miss Riko Hasegawa used to become famous through the animated movie "Midnight Bell", so Mr. Higashino should know about this as an insider, right? Ryuichi Yano explained.

"I know that."

But after becoming famous, this Miss Riko Hasegawa basically didn't have much commercial appearances, and she didn't even participate in a dubbing agency... So some people think that this person doesn't exist, and call her a ghost voice actor. ”

So that's what happened.

Tsukasa Higashino suddenly realized.

Then there was some amusement.

It's true that Riko Hasegawa has never been involved in dubbing work, and she has refused an invitation from a dubbing agency, and has recently been helping out at her family's sukiyaki shop.

I didn't expect it to be called a 'ghost' by some Japanese netizens.

This made Higashino Tsukasa a little crying and laughing.
