11 a.m. in the zero time zone, London, England.

In this city that was once the center of the world, somewhere in an aristocratic middle school.

A blonde girl in the uniform of the British Academy answered the teacher's question with a smile on her face, and then sat down gracefully to the praise of the teacher who exuded a feminine atmosphere on the stage.

And the students around looked at the girl with admiration and admiration.

There is no doubt that she is a very good girl.

Excellent grades, versatile sports, courteous to others, always makes people feel like a spring breeze. At first glance, she seems to be a flawless girl. If it's put in the galgame, I'm afraid it's a strong competitor for the main heroine.

Of course, in the current situation of the industry, it is also possible to become a frustrated and defeated dog.

Yes, why? For the first time, he has two attributes, blonde hair and a young lady, and it is clearly double happiness, but why did he become a well-known character of the defeated dog line?

That's right! I'm talking about ——!

Ahem, let's get down to business.

The ancients said: "If the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it." ”

However, the girl who has her own means of dealing with interpersonal relationships has not ended up alone like the second lady in "Spring Things". On the contrary, her relationship with everyone around her is good.

But Rao is such an excellent girl, and her heart is by no means pure and flawless on the outside. At least...... A year or so ago, she was in a state of extreme wavering and made a decision that she now considers quite bad.

Sighing softly, the blonde girl played with the ends of her hair with one hand, tilted her head slightly, and her gaze fell on the endless sky outside the window, catching the clouds that accidentally crashed into her field of vision, which were wandering in the wind.

True White...... How are you doing? It should be over there by now...... It's dinner time, right?

……

8 p.m. in East 9, Tokyo, Japan.

In an apartment in Chiyoda Ward, Jiang Yu wore heat-resistant gloves and served the last dish on the table. Then he beckoned Xiao Bury, who had been calling "hungry" and "hungry" on the side, to hurry up and sit down at the table, and walked to Shiina Mashiro's room, and he was not polite, he directly unscrewed the door, and then pulled out the girl who was obsessed with drawing comic manuscripts out to eat.

After the three of them sat down at the dinner table, they had a routine pre-dinner greeting, and then it was naturally a silent meal time. Occasionally, Tsuchima wanted to stir up some topics, but under the indifferent offensive of Shiina Mashiro, who doesn't like to talk, and Jiang Yu, who doesn't like to talk during meals, he quietly fell silent.

……

"Huh? What is it? ”

For the British, lunch is a very simple meal, as long as you have the energy to study or work in the afternoon.

As an Englishman who is fluent in Japanese, the blonde girl is no exception.

She ate the sandwich in her hand for a while, took out her phone, and played nonchalantly.

It is worth mentioning that because of the popularity among the students, the blonde girl had to decline everyone's invitation every time and eat lunch alone in her seat.

So, this is a lonely scene in Japan and China, and for girls, it is as stable, plain, and boring as everyday.

Sometimes she wonders what it would be like if she had her own friends, had lunch together every day, and left school together in the afternoon.

After all, since she was a child, she thought that the only person who could be counted as her best friend was a girl who was thousands of miles away.

What made her suspicious was that the girl who was cleaning up the news on her P station suddenly found a job offer written in Japanese asking her to work as an artist for a game.

Naturally, she can't compare to those big touches on the P station, the girl who hasn't painted for a long time, and now she only occasionally thinks about it, and she throws one or two dark style paintings.

As for why...... Maybe it's because the girl still resents it in her heart.

However, it is precisely because of her excellent painting level and casual update time that she unexpectedly gained a loyal fan, and since then she has become one of the top artists circulating in a small circle.

Of course, she herself would not admit the title of "top", and probably never will. After all, there was a sun beside her that was so dazzling that the rest of the stars were dimmed.

Originally, this news should have been directly attributed to the fate of "deletion", like its countless predecessors. However, the girl who just remembered her good friend who lived in Japan did not know what kind of mood she was in, so she replied, "What kind of game is it?"

After sending it out, she regretted it a little, and wanted to withdraw it but it wasn't a chat software, so she couldn't help it. In the end, I had to accept the fact that I actually started to negotiate painting work with people I didn't know.

Obviously, I hate drawing the most.

Two or three times ate the sandwich in her hand, the blonde girl thought.

……

"Huh? Got a reply? ”

Jiang Yu, who had just wiped his hands clean, sat on the chair with his buttocks, and then found the reply received by Station P. Then he typed down a large paragraph with great interest, and then deleted all of them, thought about it for a while, and found that it was really more convenient to use chat software.

However, Jiang Yu, who was doing this kind of work for the first time to find artists, found that he had forgotten to attach his contact information at the end, so he had to shake his head with self-deprecation and send a private message with his contact information.

Soon, the reply came again. It seems that the other party is guarding the private mailbox.

"Then I'll get in touch with LINE later."

So smooth? Jiang Yu was a little incredulous, could it be that the life of a painter is so difficult now?

All right...... It's a bit of a bit of a mistake in the direction, but in terms of results, it's true. Nowadays, except for a small number of well-known painters, most of the middle and low-level painters are in a situation where they can take on any job in order to maintain their work. In particular, those full-time painters are really busy every day.

So, this industry......

After waiting for about ten minutes, Jiang Yu received a belated friend application on his LINE.

"Igarashi"?

Not...... Surely you didn't choose such a name because of a certain anime, right?

Routinely began to think wildly, and then Jiang Yu passed the friend application and sent out a greeting, which was quickly responded this time.

Igarashi: "Hello. I'm actually quite interested in the work part, but can you tell me what kind of game it is?"
