When Ji Feng and Yuki came home from school, the black cat was the only one in the house who stayed in his room to draw illustrations, and Sister Hinata and Sister Zhuxi were said to have gone out to play together. And even if the fifth watch couple does not have to work overtime for the sake of the family, it is impossible to go home from work until four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Ruri, the illustrations for the first volume have been completed, and the illustrations for the rest can be put aside for a while. How's the work you said earlier about finding illustrators and voice actors in places like the anime community? ”

"Hmm...... It's not ...... Go well.

Illustrators and voice actors who are not well-known are willing to take on jobs as long as they have them, but in terms of quality, they can only be said to be barely usable; And even if those powerful illustrators and voice actors are not famous for the time being, the asking price is basically in line with their strength, but those ...... Hum.

In short, if you think about it from an economic point of view, you still have to slowly screen a large number of newcomers, and let one person be responsible for several roles, which is also a common practice in the 'industry'.

But as a supervisor and producer, it's only today that you've asked about this for the first time...... It's okay to choose an illustrator, just look at his previous works to make a preliminary decision; But if you're a rookie voice actor, you'll have to listen to the auditions one by one.

If you want to save money and be lazy, you might as well just make a game with no or very little voice - it's just a web game to play on tablets and phones, and voice isn't a must. ”

As soon as it comes to work, the black cat immediately becomes serious. And when she called the voice actor agency, her serious and low, usually sounded like she was angry all the time, and she had a sense of maturity beyond her years, and the person on the other side of the phone would not have thought that the lady she was talking to was actually a junior high school student.

However, for Ji Feng, such a serious black cat has become his nemesis, and he believes in happy study, happy work, and happy life, and he is very uncomfortable with this feeling of being monitored and urged all the time.

It's good to be conscientious, but creative work doesn't need to be so serious, right? In other words, it is difficult to create a particularly happy work with such a serious attitude - after all, even the creator himself is very unhappy.

Especially Ji Feng's trump card "Fleet Collection" prepared for the five watchmen, this game he simply copied the "original" in advance before Tanaka's flying mother was called Tanaka's flying mother, and tried to achieve the point of "taking Tanaka's road so that Tanaka has no way out". Even if there are differences in details because of memory problems, the more than 180 ship girls in the early days are from China, the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan, but the basic framework of the game, gameplay, and data balance are all copied from the "original".

Although this ensures that the game will be successful as long as there are no major accidents, it also deprives Ji Feng of the fun of being a creator, so he can take the infinite stream of fangames that can only be released on Comiket by storm...... It's not surprising that the famous web games in the otaku world are even more attentive.

But his "bitterness" can't be explained to the black cat, so he can only hang his head and humbly accept the black cat's criticism, and painfully reflect on his extremely wrong and extremely irresponsible work attitude, and promise to devote himself to the production of "Fleet Collection" in the future, and can only do it in his spare time in the game released on Comiket.

"That...... Ruri ......"

After exchanging things about work, Ji Feng still lingered in the black cat's room and refused to leave, and there was a "kind" smile on his face that made people have to be vigilant, giving people a bit like a weird squirm who planned to trick the little girl into going to see a goldfish.

"That...... In addition to the work aspect...... Didn't you find one or two of those anime communities that you're interested in? ”

"Huh? Why do you ask this? ”

As soon as the black cat, who was already wary of Ji Feng's strange attitude, heard this personal question, which seemed to be a family affair, he immediately sat up straight sensitively, and his eyes stared at Ji Feng's eyes quite sharply, as if he intended to see through the window of his mind directly through his true intentions.

However, Ji Feng didn't deliberately hide anything this time, he lowered his head a little shyly under the aggressive gaze of the black cat, and with the gentle smile on his face that was originally "exclusive" by Sister Hinata and Sister Zhuxi, he was very embarrassed to explain his thoughts:

"This ...... I'm just trying to care about you. Although you are much happier than you used to be when you have a job, and you are not at all stage frightened when talking to strangers on the phone, ......

But in reality, you still don't have any friends, do you?

Of course, it's normal for you to find friends in the class or school who share your interests and temperaments, and I don't have to be nosy to let you get in touch with reality or something...... However, if you are online, as long as you join the online community you are interested in, it will naturally be easy to make friends who can talk to you.

So as an older brother, I want to ......"

"No need, thank you for your concern."

Before Ji Feng could finish speaking, the black cat flatly rejected his kindness with a scorched mouth, which made Ji Feng feel very hurt in his heart, but he would not be angry with the black cat because of this.

The reason why the black cat's personality is so awkward is precisely because she has a strong sense of self-esteem, because she is afraid of being hurt by others. It's just that unlike those submissive "little transparent", the black cat is much more courageous than them, so she put on a very aggressive appearance, not to let everyone around her ignore her, a guy who has no sense of existence, but to let everyone around her fully feel her danger, and then consciously avoid her.

Compared with Shinji Ikati, the guy who has his own parent's aura, the lucky aura, and the sister's aura, the immortal aura, the protagonist's aura, the black cat is the real "porcupine", and only someone like Ji Feng who really cares about her and loves her will be willing to endure the spikes on her body, even if she has been hurt by her, he insists on getting close to her and wants to give her warmth.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to interfere in your private life, I'm just ......"

"I'm not mistaken, I just don't want you to know, I don't want to talk to you about this."

Although Ji Feng relentlessly tried to show his kindness again, the black cat also made it clear once again that he refused to do so, which left Ji Feng with nothing more to say. However, after a short silence, the black cat suddenly took the initiative to ask him a question that seemed completely unrelated to the current situation:

"Do you have a habit of writing in a diary online or swiping Twitter or Facebook?"
