"So the two of you know each other, haha, that's great! Officer Kusanagi was specially asked by me to come to the headquarters to help investigate the case of the mask pervert. Of course, don't get me wrong, Utsumi, I didn't ask Officer Kusanagi to come over to help because of your lack of ability, and you also know that the number of victims in this case has risen to 4 people, one of whom is a high school student, and the pressure I am facing is also very high......"

Kaoru Utsumi unceremoniously interrupted his nonsense and said, "I understand, Director Nakai. It's too late for me to be happy with the help of Kusanagi's seniors, so how can I blame you. ”

Nakai saw that she was indeed not unhappy, and immediately wiped the sweat on her head with relief.

Kaoru Utsumi itself is nothing, but her father is a big name. Utsumi Daisuke is the deputy police inspector of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and he is at the level of deputy commander in the army. Nakai has always believed that Kaoru Utsumi came to his small police station to serve only because Daisuke Utsumi let her come over to gild, and Kaoru Utsumi will definitely be transferred to the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters as an important member in the future. As the director of the police station, Nakai naturally wants to have a good relationship with her.

But he couldn't just let her go. Now that the case of the mask pervert has made headlines, if he is not dealt with as the director, he will not be able to keep his position.

So he could only ask the headquarters for help, but he didn't expect the headquarters to send the famous detective Kusanagi Shunpei over without saying a word. To say that Utsumi Daisuke didn't make a difference in this, Nakai didn't believe it.

"Then I won't bother you, Officer Kusanagi, this case has always been in charge of Utsumi, you can just ask her if you have any questions." Nakai said with a humble smile.

Kusanagi nodded and said, "I see, Director Nakai." ”

The long-winded director finally left, and Kaoru Utsumi carefully looked at the senior in front of him who he hadn't seen for a long time. His dress looked a little unkempt, the beard on his chin hadn't been shaved for a long time, and there were obvious dark circles under his eyes. Although he looked at Kaoru Uchikai and smiled faintly, his eyes seemed to be looking far away.

For a moment, Kaoru Utsumi felt as if the distance between him and Shunpei Kusanagi had become even farther.

"What's wrong with you?" Kusanagi Shunhei sensed something strange about Kaoru Utsumi.

Kaoru Utsumi smiled reluctantly and said, "Senior, is Sister Xue Sui okay?" ”

Kusanagi Jun smiled faintly and said, "Yukiho and I have broken up. ”

Kaoru Utsumi widened her eyes in surprise and covered her mouth with a look of disbelief.

Kusanagi Toshihei looked at the file on the table as if nothing happened, and said, "I just saw that you were fascinated by this file, whose file is this?" Is there any connection to the case of that masked freak? ”

Kaoru Utsumi forcibly suppressed the mixed emotions in her heart and said, "This high school student said that he and two female high school students were once attacked by that mask pervert, and then the three of them beat that pervert away. ”

Kusanagi said, "You don't seem to believe them in your tone? ”

Kaoru Utsumi said, "I believe those two high school girls were indeed attacked, but I'm not sure if they were mask perverts. ”

Kusanagi said, "Isn't it clearly described in their confessions? ”

Kaoru Utsumi said, "It's very clearly described, but since the last time the mask metamorphosis was reported, I believe it won't be difficult to imitate his appearance." ”

Kusanagi Toshihei said, "Do you suspect that the mask perverts they encountered are fake?" Where did you get your basis? ”

Kaoru Utsumi pointed to the material in Kusanagi's hand and said, "That's this person." ”

Utsumi told Kusanagi about his discovery, but Kusanagi shook his head and said, "Your judgment is too subjective, you can't judge this person as a murderer just because he behaves suspiciously, many times, we are blinded by our own judgment, but we can't see the truth of the matter." ”

Kaoru Utsumi said a little unconvinced, "Then what do you think is going on?" Could it be that the high school student had the ability to foresee that his classmate was attacked by a masked pervert in advance? ”

Kusanagi smiled and said, "It's not impossible, until I find tangible evidence, I can only say that anything is possible." However, there is no problem with the direction of your investigation, there is indeed something suspicious about this male high school student, maybe this is the breakthrough point of the case in front of you. ”

Araki had already called the hospital, and his mother's attending physician told him that although his mother could survive on dialysis for a while, it was best to have a kidney replacement as soon as possible. The ordinary match** will cost about 5 million to get, and the free one will not know what year and month it will have to wait for, and the cost of the operation will be about 5 million, adding up to at least 10 million. Araki Haku thought he had saved enough money, but he didn't expect that he was still a little stretched.

At this time, it was obviously impossible to exchange oil paintings for money, and he could only hope that his cartoons could get him out of poverty and poverty.

In the past few days, Araki Haku, using his crazy pen speed, began to redraw "Samsara".

Samsara is the name that Araki Haku gave to his manga, and in order to add fashion, it is especially important to give the manga a good English name.

Samsara means reincarnation in English, and his manga depicts the story of a group of reincarnators, so it is natural to use the name reincarnation. He felt that the Japanese name could be set as "Killing Reincarnation" to add some dark feelings.

But now is not the time to wrestle with naming. When he started drawing this comic, he was just drawing as he wanted, and although he didn't get stuck in the plot on the way, he found that according to his current trend, the first story would probably take 200 pages to finish.

He knows that newcomers in comic magazines generally have to test the water with short stories, and if they can't test the waters, they are likely to continue to draw short stories until a short story wins an award, and this time is undoubtedly the best debut. It's rare for a newcomer to start serializing without a short story.,Unless his comics are really well drawn, and he can pass the serialization meeting in one go.。

According to the level of Araki Haku's painting, I am afraid that he may be underestimated if it is very good. His style of painting can only be described in two words, but even so, can he ignore the rules of the comic magazine and start serializing directly?

It may work in some small magazines, but it is definitely not feasible at G, where Araki Haku wants to submit articles.

G is one of the three giants of Japanese manga in the world, and it is also tied with A and Y, which together are called GAY Sansha.

G Society's juvenile hot-blooded manga is more famous, A Society's shoujo comics are more famous, and Y Society is a very old-fashioned comic magazine company.

G was originally an independent subsidiary of Y Company, but after a series of reforms, its performance was many times better than that of Y Company. There are many manga artists at the god level of G Society, and now one magazine accounts for most of the sales of the comic market.

If Araki Haku wants to gain a foothold in the comic industry, he will naturally choose G Company, which has a relatively high salary and market share.

Besides, even if he wanted to invest in the other two giants, it was not suitable. A is a girl comic that is more famous.,Other comics don't have a market in A company.。 Y Club is dying of old age, only supported by a supreme god in the comic circle, and the salary is far inferior to that of G Society.

Since he is aiming at a big-name magazine like G Society, Araki Bai doesn't want to break the other party's rules, and he is ready to obediently hand in a short story as his debut novel.
