"The original content of the third episode has been submitted to the editor."

Tsukasa Higashino still explained: "The original manuscript is not with me at all, but Takahashi-san can look forward to this week's "Bad Cold", which will be released in a few days. ”

Higashino's words obviously did not satisfy Yumi Takahashi, she let out an 'ah' in dismay, then pursed her mouth, bit her thumb, and looked lost: "Do you have to wait until "Bad Cold" is released this week?" ”

Seeing Yumi Takahashi, who was obviously fascinated by the plot of "Midnight Bell", Tsukasa Higashino thought to himself, fortunately, you haven't seen "The Lonely Gourmet" I want to draw.

It was published once a month, and the toxicity of food was much stronger than that of "Midnight Bell".

Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi were lost, so only Konoe Ryoka was left: "Higashi, is there something wrong with Higashino-san?" ”

She asked in a low voice with her head half-raised, a lot better than the previous appearance of not daring to approach Tsukasa Higashino.

"Ah, there's something I need your help with." Tsukasa Higashino reacted and replied with a smile.

Need help?

The trio of girls from Ryoka High School looked at each other.

Before they could speak, Higashino added, "I know that the sudden invitation will definitely make you feel embarrassed, if you can, please listen to me and make a decision, is it okay?" ”

He spoke with sincerity and looked quite solemn.

This made Aoi Fujiwara, who was about to refuse at first, hesitate for a while, and finally nodded - it's a big deal to listen to what Higashino Tsukasa has to say before refusing.

And Yumi Takahashi next to him smacked her lips in disappointment, muttering a little unwillingly: "You don't even let me watch the third episode of "Midnight Bell", and you want me to help..."

Could it be that you can still draw a new manga for me?

I'm still your die-hard reader!

Thinking about it like this, Yumi Takahashi was even more unhappy.

"This time, I would like to ask for your help in the creation of new manga." Tsukasa Higashino spread things out with a smile: "Because of the newly prepared food manga, I want to go to some small places on the street to explore the store." ”

"New comics...? Or food comics? ”

At this time, not only Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara, two readers who have been watching "Midnight Bell", expressed surprise.

Even Ryoka Konoe next to him couldn't help but glance at Tsukasa Higashino more.

Because even she, who doesn't read comics, knows how difficult it is for a manga author to double open - Tsukasa Higashino and "Midnight Bell" are being serialized.

Fujiwara Aoi on the other side couldn't help but look at Higashino Tsukasa twice, thinking that maybe this kid succeeded too easily through "Midnight Bell", so he fantasized about drawing another comic of the same level as "Midnight Bell".

It's not that Aoi Fujiwara looks down on Tsukasa Higashino, but it's based on facts.

After all, it's very difficult for a comic book writer to make the transition, let alone from horror comics to food comics - this can't be said to be a transformation, this is simply a metamorphosis.

From the corpse-stinking, eerie, and terrifying "Midnight Bell" to the bright, warm, and fragrant food comics?

This... Are you sure you can make the food delicious?

But before Aoi Fujiwara could speak, Yumi Takahashi next to him had already asked Tsukasa Higashino with sparkling eyes: "Is it Higashino-sensei's new manga?" ”

"That's exactly what it is." Tsukasa Higashino thought for a moment and replied, "To be precise, I don't know where to find a good home restaurant, so I need your help." Of course, as a thank you gift, I will pay for your meals. ”

"Then I'll help!" Yumi Takahashi nodded without hesitation in agreement.

I can see what the comic author looks like when he creates it, and he can eat and drink for free, so this fool doesn't agree.

Fujiwara Aoi on the side was still hesitating, but when she heard Yumi Takahashi defecting without hesitation, she also sighed lightly: "Okay... Then I'll go too. ”

She always felt that if she didn't follow her, Yumi Takahashi, a fat-ass stupid pig, would have to give an account to Tsukasa Higashino.

Two of the three have already agreed, and all that's left is -

"Huh?" Ryoka Konoe saw the three of Higashino Tsukasa looking at him, pointed at himself with his index finger, opened his mouth, and finally lowered his head: "Then I'll go too." ”

She was already weak, and her ears were soft, so she was naturally obedient.

"In fact, Lianghua often eats out among us, and she doesn't know how to cook."

After Konoe Ryoka also agreed, Yumi Takahashi's mind was also activated, and she began to explode the black material of Konoe Ryoka.

"Really?" Tsukasa Higashino glanced at Ryoka Konoe as if he hadn't thought about it.

The last time he saw Konoe Ryoka going home with ingredients in his hands, he didn't expect the other party to be a flower shelf.

"I'm still practicing... I'm still practicing..."Konoe Ryoka's originally snow-white face turned red, and she waved her hands in front of her chest: "It's just that I'm still a little unskilled..."

After saying that, she touched her head, smirked, and then stopped talking.

But if she doesn't speak, it doesn't mean that Yumi Takahashi next to her will let her go: "What is practice?" ”

Yumira Takahashi said hesitantly: "Lianghua bought a live fish last time, and it was originally going to be stunned with the back of the knife or the blade and then killed, but Lianghua's first slap was a little small, and she didn't dare to stun the fish, so the fish jumped around." ”

In the end, she apologized 'sorry' and slapped the fish's head with the back of her knife, causing the fish to jump everywhere in pain. Seeing that, Ah Kui couldn't help but go up and help out. ”

"Uh..."After hearing this, Higashino Tsukasa took a closer look at Ryoka Konoe, thinking to himself that this honest-looking girl was also an expert torturer.

Just listening to Yumi Takahashi's mouth, Tsukasa Higashino could imagine that the live fish was jumping around in pain, and Ryoka Konoe was so scared that she was still slapping the live fish with a knife in her hand, and she was still screaming 'I'm sorry' in her mouth.

I don't know, I think Konoe Ryoka is knocking on the wooden fish.

Tsukasa Higashino estimated that the mentality of the fish being photographed in the end collapsed, and if it could speak, it would probably beg Ryoka Konoe to kill it.

"I'm still practicing..."Feeling the inexplicable gaze of Tsukasa Higashino, Ryoka Konoe muttered quietly: "I won't be making fish in the future." ”

"Anyway, we're willing to help with this, Higashino-san, what time is it?"

Aoi Fujiwara asked.

"About an hour after school, you're waiting for me in your class... No problem, right? ”

Tsukasa Higashino still has a wood carving task to go, and he has to spend at least an hour carving, and then he goes to the class to find Ryoka Konoe and them... This should be no problem.

"Hmm. That's it. It just so happens that Stupid Pig still has the Kendo Club activities to complete. ”

Aoi Fujiwara nodded.

She can stay at school and finish the homework left by the teacher, while Yumi Takahashi has a kendodo club job, and she will gather after an hour... It's quite reasonable in terms of emotion and reason.
