Hearing Araki Yuko's words, Araki Bai hurriedly said, "I can't let your classmates know about this matter. ”

Yuko Araki said a little disappointed, "Why? ”

Araki Shiro said earnestly: "What do you think, what will happen to those super-famous manga artists if they appear on the streets? ”

Yuko Araki asked a little hesitantly, "What's the situation?" ”

Araki Bai said: "Of course, a large number of people rushed up to ask for autographs!" ”

Yuko Araki nodded and said, "Yes, you can't reveal your brother's identity, otherwise you won't be able to go to the street." ”

Araki Haku said again: "Not only that, but if your classmates all know that your brother is a famous manga artist, guess what they will do?" ”

Yuko Araki blinked and asked, "They'll come to you for an autograph too?" ”

Araki Bai shook his head and said, "It's not looking for me, it's looking for you." Imagine that every day after class, a bunch of people gather around you and ask you for autographs, can you still go to school? ”

Yuko Araki shuddered. She likes to be welcomed, but if that welcome is too warm, it becomes a terrible thing.

Yuko Araki nodded her head firmly and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely not reveal your identity!" ”

It's clear that Araki Haku is not even a manga artist, but the dialogue between brother and sister with him as a famous manga artist has no sense of disobedience.

Araki Bai touched Araki Yuko's head with satisfaction and said, "Are you hungry?" I'll go and warm up your breakfast. ”

Sawada sat on a comfortable leather sofa, and in front of her was a tall, handsome man leaning over the desk writing a check.

"15 million, you can cash in at the headquarters of Bank of Mitsubishi or any branch."

Toru Kageyama walked over and handed the check in his hand to Sawada Shu.

Sawada Shu looked at him curiously and said, "Mr. Kageyama is refreshing, and he doesn't feel distressed to spend 15 million to buy an anonymous oil painting?" ”

Kageyama smiled, walked over and held up the framed oil painting, stared at the girl in the painting, and said, "The painting that can make the Grand Duke Natori look at it will not be much worse if it is nameless, not to mention that I liked this painting when I first saw it." ”

"Although the work of this painting is comparable to a masterpiece, the theme is too dark, and I advise Mr. Kageyama not to look at it for too long, so as not to be influenced by this painting." ”

Kageyama said, "I naturally take Miss Sawada's words to heart. ”

Although he said this, there was no half-emphasis between his words.

Sawada Xiu sighed secretly, since the other party didn't listen, she couldn't say anything more.

She didn't know Toru Kageyama herself, and he was only temporarily introduced to the auction by a friend.

His father, Shu Sawada, knew Hideo Kageyama, the chairman of the famous Kageyama Corporation, who had a lot of influence in Tokyo.

Sawada Shu stood up and said, "Since the money and goods are cleared, then I will take my leave." ”

Kageyama nodded, his eyes still fixed on the painting, and said, "Go slowly, don't send it." ”

Sawada Shu left the room and closed the door.

After the other party leaves, Toru Kageyama finally takes off his polite mask like a noble son. He stretched out his nimble tongue like a pervert and licked the girl's chest on the oil painting, but only the taste of paint was felt on his taste buds.

The corners of Kageyama's mouth hooked up a sneer, and he said to himself, "Hmph, I thought this was really drawn with human blood." But if it's human blood, how can the color last long, I'm really confused. ”

He walked over to the bookshelf in the room, pressed it lightly, and saw a secret door suddenly appear in front of him.

He walked in with the painting, and the voice-activated light lit up, illuminating the small secret room.

There were a lot of things in the secret room, many of which were terrible torture instruments of unknown significance.

Kageyama removed a katana that had been hanging on the left wall of the chamber, and then hung the painting of "The Death of a Girl" in the original position of the katana, and the katana was casually placed on the table below.

The table wasn't empty, either. There was a wooden altar on it, and on it was placed something very special - a red and black mask of evil spirits.

On this day, except for his mother, who went out a little in the afternoon to go to the hospital with his sister, Araki Shiro spent it completely in drawing manga. As the brush speeds up, the plot of the beginning of the manga gradually unfolds.

The dark passage outside the underground laboratory was terrifying, but what made it even more terrifying was the strange sounds coming from the darkness. The protagonists of the comics clearly don't have the courage to step into this darkness. At this time, Hikaru Suzuki accidentally knocked over a cabinet, and a lot of messy things fell out of the cabinet.

Flashlights, pistols, knives, body armor...... All kinds of useful props appeared in front of everyone. Two of the delinquent youths were overjoyed when they saw it, and wanted to take it all for themselves, but they didn't want Hikaru Suzuki to pick up a pistol and point it at them in the first place. After a stalemate, the old man proposed to divide the props equally, with each of them taking an offensive weapon for self-defense. Naturally, the two delinquent youths were not given any weapons, only two pieces of armor.

There was no food or water in the lab, and it was impossible for people to sit still in the lab. After some deliberation, they decided to enter the dark passage to explore......

In a whole day, Araki Shiro actually finished drawing more than 30 pages of the original manuscript. You must know that the average cartoonist only draws three or four pictures a day, and only submits them once a week. And Araki Shiro was able to complete a week's worth of work in just half a day, and the speed of painting was incredible.

However, the originals in Araki's hands are not real originals, because he has not drawn speech bubbles, effect lines, etc., on each original, nor has he pasted a grid. After a series of finishing touches are completed, an original manuscript can be regarded as freshly baked.

Araki Shiro didn't rush to do the finishing work, but took a shower and lay down in bed early.

Although it was very refreshing to draw a comic today, it also made him feel stiff all over, and when he woke up tomorrow, the muscles in his neck and shoulders might be inflamed and sore.

So it's especially important to get a good night's sleep at times like these. Araki Haku is not in a hurry to submit this manga, at least not until the end of the first volume.

Because he doesn't know if his inspiration, which still seems abundant, will suddenly dry up, and wouldn't it be embarrassing if there really comes a day when he runs out of inspiration and can't hand in the original manuscript? When the time comes, you can't say to the editor: I can't draw, just be a eunuch. Or scribble and hand it over in one go, so that the quality of the comic will deteriorate.

As a perfectionist, Araki Haku will not rush into doing something before he is sure that it will be done.
