7 a.m.

Li Nuo was woken up by the sound of renovation clattering upstairs.

It stands to reason that you can't decorate at 7 o'clock, but some residents are more arrogant, so they get some privileges for themselves.

He didn't have much of a wake-up gas.

Only the brow was slightly furrowed.

Picking up his phone from under his pillow, he sent an anonymous message to a police officer:

"Inner Ring, District 3, Yongning Street, Courtyard 5, 13th Floor, 401 North Wall There is a female corpse buried."

Then, ten minutes later, Li Nuo got up sleepily, picked up his mobile phone, and saw the text message sent in a blur, and his heart beat faster.

"Didn't I get up and get angry again......

"This problem has to be corrected......"

Li Nuo listened to the noisy sound of decoration and pulled out a can of beer from the refrigerator.

Why does he have beer?

Good question.

The courier delivered the wrong one.

And the buyer doesn't want it yet.

In the spirit of the principle of not wasting it, he adopted these poor little ones.

I opened the beer and drank it with a clatter, feeling a tingling sensation in the cordial communication between my tongue and the yellow liquid.

I wanted to flatten the beer can, but it took me a long time to think of it, and I forgot about it...... I'm a piece of crap now.

So Li Nuo put the beer can at the head of the bed.

He looked at the mouth of the jar, then suddenly ran to the bathroom and looked at the width of the sewer pipe.

"Or is this width more suitable for me......"

When this thought came to him, he slapped himself in the face and buried the terrible thought in the depths of his memory.

I washed my face, went to the living room, took an apple from the beckoning cat's plate along the way, and sat down in front of the computer and nibbled on it.

He was going to take advantage of the sunny day to find inspiration for his paintings, and recently added a special character to the character.

This person is beautiful, generous, and wears little.

The above is relatively normal, and in today's comics, you have to wrap female characters tightly, which is considered a politically correct lackey.

But the difficulty is to make the reader fall in love with her, and to make the reader keep putting his hands up and down for her under the desk and quilt.

In that way, Li Nuo will be able to show the most shocking side of the character in the future.

He/she/it is a support for her.

Every time I think of the disgusting and enjoyable expressions of the readers, Li Nuo is disgusted and enjoyed.

This kind of problem of being cut a thousand times is influenced by a certain damn cartoonist.

Li Nuo's favorite work is called "level'e".

He regarded one sentence in it as the ultimate goal of life: how to live in misery without losing the support of the people.

A mention should be made here.

As I said before, Li Nuo's comics belong to the kind of ones that no one cares about, because the update is slow, so the popularity is too low.

With more updates this month, the popularity is slowly rising.

It's just that the batch with weak traffic belongs to the type that has good stickiness but few people

Many viewers often understand that this is fake, but in the spirit of the mentality of a happy person, most people will not mind this kind of innocuous deception, listening to the story, the essence is to relieve boredom.

Li Nuo doesn't object to the author's miserable behavior, it's not ugly to eat.

He even felt that it was right to sell miserably, in order to make money, speaking out about his demands was of the same nature as asking for a salary increase in the workplace, and there was no problem.

But to sell a fabricated gimmick is a fraud, and this kind of fraud can earn an income far beyond its own value without any labor at all.

Li Nuo was jealous of this.

Yes, jealousy, because he couldn't do such a thing, so he wrote down the names of the authors, ready to wait for the right day to show them what it would be like to make a lie come true.

At this moment, the phone rang.

His editor, Brother Qing's voice, came from the phone: "At eleven o'clock at noon today, come to the café in front of your house." ”

"Brother Qing ......"

"Don't say anything, you'll talk about it when you come." Brother Qing's tone was like that of a robot, full of helplessness and suppressed anger.

Li Nuo: "It's not Brother Qing......"

Brother Qing: "Okay, that's it......"

Li Nuo: "Eleven o'clock belongs to the morning. ”

Brother Qing was silent for a few seconds and hung up the phone, Li Nuo always felt that he hung up with a lot of force.

At eleven o'clock, Li Nuo arrived at the café on time.

His editor Brother Qing, whose real name is Wang Daqing, has a straight hair, black-framed glasses, looks like a shrewd scum, and the biggest feature is that he is very fat.

When taking the subway, people are often mistaken for the kind of fat that occupies a seat.

Li Nuo put the cane on the side of the chair, he still had to disguise himself as if he was not good at walking, he was professional in this area, after all, he had been lame for more than ten years.

After sitting down, looking at Brother Qing's black face, Li Nuo smiled: "Long time no see." ”

Brother Qing raised his head and looked at Li Nuo's eyes full of a desire to tear him apart.

Brother Qing stepped over the table with his fleshy hands, grabbed Li Nuo's collar, and said resentfully: "Li Nuo, you can't bully me just because you are sick. ”

"It's not...... Don't tell me, a forty-year-old brother. Li Nuo raised his hand and asked with a little embarrassment, "What am I doing again?" ”

He used "again".

Brother Qing let go of his hand, took out a document from the folder he brought and put it on the table: "The outline of the short comic script that you asked you to help write last week, do you want to read it for yourself?" ”

"Well...... "Li Nuo stared blankly.

The comic club recently moved out of the suspense outline essay, which is the kind of special support project that doesn't need to be set or drawn, as long as the story is published and finalized, you can get the serial qualification.

The person who was selected could get a generous reward, and for the sake of Li Nuo's outstanding career and enough gimmicks in the past year, Brother Qing gave him a place.

Li Nuo said: "I won't watch it." ”

Brother Qing snatched the document, took out one and read it: "In the evening, Kulolo, who got off work, went back to the dormitory, and he pressed the elevator on the first floor to go up to the eighth floor, and the elevator opened...... She walked in, and it was empty, and as soon as he got in, the elevator closed and it went up, up, up

"What's next!" Brother Qing roared in a low voice: "You don't even leave a single punctuation mark, do you!" ”

"Isn't there even a follow-up story suspenseful?" Li Nuo asked rhetorically.

"I'll rely on the ......" Brother Qing took out the second one, let out a long breath, and suppressed his anger and said: "My dog has been a little wrong recently, it is very close to a female dog, but it has been neutered a few years ago, so I put down the dog food, I looked at the dog for a few seconds, and from its eyes, I could see _______." ”

"You kid make up a textbook for me, don't you? Still with fill-in-the-blank questions? Brother Qing's eyes were about to pop out.

"Don't be angry...... So do you know the correct answer? Leno asked.

Brother Qing lowered his head, he really wanted to know, so he said: "From its eyes, I can see that its eyes are emitting a strange aura......"

"It's boring." Li Nuo said.

"So, what's that?" Brother Qing asked, "What can I see in its eyes?" ”

"It wants to ride you on the high speed."

Brother Qing: "......"

Li Nuo: "What's wrong?" ”

Brother Qing: "If you weren't sick, you would have been beaten to death." ”

But Brother Qing is also roaring at himself in his heart, I am also sick! Why ask for answers!

"Is the sense of suspense gone?" Li Nuo asked.

Brother Qing was stunned, curiosity seems to be an element that contributes to suspense, but this is too jumpy!

At this time, Brother Qing was intoxicated with a feeling that he was as he was, and he was angry, which was completely in line with Li Nuo's motto, which made him satisfied and deeply troubled.

"So...... You can't be looking for me because of this, are you? Leno asked.

Brother Qing said a little decadently: "You write well, you and I can get a bonus and write a mediocre script, and this matter will pass, but you just chose to write something like a neurosis, which caused your script to fail, but people did." ”

Lenovo: "Ah......? ”

Brother Qing said: "In short, our head office has taken a fancy to you and wants to meet you, so I asked you out." ”

Li Nuo asked, "Then why do you say that I bullied you?" ”

"Heh......" Brother Qing snorted coldly: "The boss thinks that I didn't see your 'talent' that caused you to be hidden in the snow until now...... I fucking ......" his tone was aggravated, his hands clenched into fists, and he gritted his teeth: "I was doubted by my boss about my business ability!" ”

"I'm sorry Brother Qing, I'm ...... I really didn't mean to. ”

"Li Nuo...... You say, your book "Neuro Odyssey" is so normal...... How can writing a script be so abnormal......"

Li Nuo glared at the dead fish, something is wrong with me.

"Huh?" A girl's voice came from the seat behind Li Nuo: "You painted "Neuro Odyssey"? ”

Leno turned his head, and a girl with long flowing hair stared at him with Kazlan-like eyes.

"Well, I did a good job." Li Nuo said.

"Then you are 'my uncle'!" The girl couldn't hide her excitement.

Li Nuo's pen name is "I-Uncle", not my uncle, but most people will omit that bar when he pronounces it, so he didn't like this pen name very much later, because if someone pronounces it, it will inevitably feel like taking advantage of him.

The girl greeted her best friend sitting opposite, and said excitedly: "This is that cartoonist, or a little brother!" ”

My girlfriend leaned on the back of the seat and exclaimed: "I'll go, it turns out that not all the people who draw comics are middle-aged people with big bellies." ”

"I love your work."

Li Nuo: "......"

"I saw that when you previewed it at the beginning of the month, you said that you were going to add a special character, can you spoil it?"

Li Nuo: "......"

"Ah, I'm sorry, I should give myself a sense of anticipation!"

Li Nuo has been putting on a poker face.

He turned around and whispered to Brother Qing, "Why don't I invite them to the hotel and give them to you as a gift of reparation." ”

Brother Qing's hand trembled: "I call you Brother Li...... Spare me. ”

Li Nuo said with a wicked smile: "Isn't there such a famous saying, double flying is every man's dream." ”

Brother Qing chose the most correct way to deal with it, silent.

At this time, he glanced at his mobile phone and hurriedly said: "People are coming soon, you remember, if you want to go to a big company to draw comics, you must answer the questions well." ”

Leno asked, "That...... Our head office, isn't it called ......?"

"Cairo Comics Agency." Brother Qing said: "I think with your physical condition, it's best not to go there to work. ”

"How?"

"Three changes a week, you have to take into account publicity and the author's personality."

"Forget it then...... Too much work intensity. "Li Nuo's real idea is not to contact the Cairo people in reality for the time being, those guys who can build robots are too dangerous.

"But why don't I just say no?"

"The boss is careful, if he knows that you don't give face, he will definitely cut off your channel." After Brother Qing explained, he comforted: "Don't worry, as long as you answer your true thoughts truthfully, people will definitely not want you." ”

"I don't think you're scolding me." When Li Nuo complained, he saw a beautiful lady coming in at the door.

The lady looked to be about thirty years old, with a delicate face, wearing a white headband, long hair coiled at the back of her head, a white blouse, and a short skirt that was over-the-knee, both in terms of the depth of the neckline and the length of the skirt.

Li Nuo immediately said to Brother Qing: "Here, let go." ”

Brother Qing gave up his position, and subconsciously was a little surprised how Li Nuo knew that this person was sent by the head office.

"Julie." The lady sat next to Brother Qing, facing Li Nuo, and said with a smile: "You are ...... I...... Right. ”

She really didn't want to pronounce Li Nuo's pen name.

But it's rude to call the author's real name, so you can only ...... Bite one's tongue.

Li Nuo nodded and replied solemnly: "Well, I am my uncle." ”

Zhu Li smiled: "I am the general manager of personnel of the operation headquarters of Cairo Comics Agency B City, and when we meet for the first time, I am here to represent the company today to conduct a ~ interview with you that is not an interview." ”

Li Nuo glared at the dead fish's eyes: "Ah, the first time we met, would you like to drink something?" ”

Zhu Li smiled: "Coffee ......"

"Brother Qing, I want a glass of ice water." Leno said quickly before her.

Brother Qing tilted his head and looked out the window, it has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me.

Julie: "Forget it...... Ice water, ah...... Ice water is also counted. ”

"Boiling water?" Li Nuo asked.

Julie said, "No, I don't like to drink hot. ”

Li Nuo nodded: "The ovulation period is at the beginning of each month. ”

It's still good for tea, no big aunt.

Brother Qing took out his mobile phone and typed on it to remind Li Nuo not to be too normal.

Li Nuo scoffed, his so-called normality was to shamelessly find out all the truth about what he saw.

Julie was stunned.

The two female fans behind Li Nuo were also stunned.

At this time, Li Nuo asked, "Then let's start the interview, Ms. Zhu Li, is it okay to call you that?" ”

Julie didn't wonder yet, but just hummed.

Li Nuo asked, "If you change jobs, what is the monthly salary you expect?" ”

Julie thought for a moment: "I hope ...... Probably in ...... Well, wait...... I'm asking you, right? ”

Li Nuo frowned.

"Well, that's fine."

"It's okay to call anything...... Zhu Li gritted her teeth, let out a sigh, adjusted her mood and said: "We want to find a cartoonist with more divergent thinking skills, I have heard your story, I have been weak and sickly since I was a child, and this alone is enough for you to become a well-known painter." ”

"I'm not going to cut off my ears."

"Are you benchmarking yourself against Van Gogh......" Julie knew that she was being led by the nose unconsciously just now, so she breathed a sigh of relief, adjusted her mentality, and said: "First of all, why did you want to become a cartoonist?" ”

Li Nuo hissed, looking a little hesitant.

Brother Qing said: "You can just tell the truth." ”

"yes, just tell the truth." Julie gloated a little and said, "Like falling in love with a certain Sailor Moon, or being influenced by some kind of ...... The influence of that kind of comics, it's not that it's unspeakable......"

"the powder."

"Ah...... Aren't you a little too free. "Julie's head is a little hot.

Li Nuo shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "I have suffered from an incurable disease since I was a child, and I may go to heaven at any time. ”

Brother Qing, who knew him, complained in his heart: Are you sure that heaven will accept you.

Li Nuo is still saying: "Most species are born with only two things engraved in their genes, eating and reproducing, of course, I haven't thought about the absurd thing of reproduction, after all, I can't even support myself, right, but I also want to be like an ordinary person, and do what should be done with the opposite sex, but I can't do it, my body is not enough to support me to do those things, and there will be no opposite sex who can look down on me as a sick seedling, which leads to me can only suppress the species instinct in the process of growth." ”

He took a deep breath and continued: "It wasn't until I saw the news that a 60-year-old Internet celebrity slept with a 17-year-old female fan that I thought that they could even endure a 60-year-old old man...... You must be able to put up with me! So I chose the latter at home and with the cartoonist, after all, I draw better. ”

"Actually, you can ......" Brother Qing clicked so far, he understands everything.

Li Nuo said: "Do I have that money? ”

Silence spread silently like poison gas.

The female fan sitting in the back looked at the photo of Li Nuo that she had taken secretly, and asked herself with a red face: "Can I help him realize his dream?" ”

At this time, many people in the café were already looking at them.

Zhu Li covered half of her face and immediately changed the topic: "The company has a basic salary and benefits for the author, what is the basic salary you are looking forward to?" ”

Li Nuo said: "Twenty-six thousand. ”

"I'm afraid...... A bit much. ”

"I can't help it...... Now it costs 26,000 to buy a fake certificate to be a cowherd. ”

How to say it again! Julie regretted why she had taken the job.

"Good...... One last question. ”

"Only three?"

"Three is enough for you." Zhu Li said: "As a cartoonist, the depiction of women is closely related to the circulation of your personal works, and what kind of women do you have a unique affection for, you can't say fans!" ”

Li Nuo pouted helplessly: "Help her." ”

"What......" Julie doubted her ears.

"When I want to be a man, she is a woman, when I want to be a woman, he is a man, when I want to be an animal......"

"Ahem......!" Brother Qing coughed heavily, he was afraid that Li Nuo would not be able to keep his job if he continued to talk about it.

Why should I suggest that Li Nuoquan tell the truth......

"Okay, you're qualified......" Julie said reluctantly.

Li Nuo's face darkened.

Brother Qing was stunned.

"Of course, we'll do one more background check, and we'll have the next step in the interview plan, if you agree." Julie paused for a moment and asked, "To show sincerity, we can help you fulfill a small ideal, what do you want?" ”

Li Nuo said listlessly: "Please let a female corpse be buried in the north wall of Courtyard 5, Courtyard 5, Yongning Street, No. 5, 401 in the Inner Ring, District 3, Yongning Street." ”

Julie picked up her bag and flew out of the café.

It's like seeing a plague god.

"Brother Qing." Li Nuo grabbed Brother Qing's collar with a resentful face, and said with a dark face: "Didn't you say that if I was normal, she wouldn't admit me!" ”

"How did I know that the head office is a center of neurosis!"

"I don't care, you have to be responsible for this!"

"What are you responsible for making me, a single old man of forty years old, responsible!"

A crowd of people was watching them......

A young man puts a middle-aged man in charge......

This kind of thing......

Even the teller couldn't listen anymore: "Two gentlemen." ”

The teller stood next to them and said in a low and serious voice: "There is a suite upstairs, if you are in charge......

"Shut up!" Brother Qing's eyes were about to squeeze out of their sockets. He was extremely angry, no matter what Li Nuo said, he was also one of his future cash cows, the kind that was worth living and dying, and he couldn't do anything to see it being poached.

At this time, the female fan jumped out and said firmly to Li Nuo: "I can!" ”

Li Nuo: "Huh? ”

The female fan looked at her best friend, who was stunned for a moment and said, "That, that, this little brother...... It's not impossible, okay...... Add me one. ”

Five minutes later.

The four of them came to the pink couple's standard room, but when they entered the house, they found that Li Nuo was not there.

Brother Qing and the two girls stared wide-eyed, and finally Brother Qing said, "That, that, that, please, please advise." ”

Sure enough, double flying is a man's dream.

The girl's hands are shaking, and doubles is a woman's dream.

……

Julie walked out into the street.

Pick up the phone.

"How?"

"I'm still extracting his scent, but I'm sure I've been in contact with Cairo-kun other than us, and it seems to be ...... It also has something to do with that Yurha...... Contact, but it is not possible to fully judge from the smell, it is best to do a complete examination. ”

"That's right...... He's still very useful for us to study aliens. Julie lit a lady's cigarette: "This guy is very interesting." ”

"How?"

"It's unreasonable, pretend to be stupid, check his personal information, and be comprehensive."

"Okay."

Julie instructed, "That's right...... Tell Cairo Ji to postpone the interview with him for the time being, this kid...... I'm afraid he's messed up the comic club. ”

"Is that an exaggeration?"

Zhu Li nodded silently: "Character, extremely bad!" ”

At this moment, she suddenly turned her head sharply!

A pair of eyes seemed to be staring at him in the abyss, and the palpitations quickly disappeared.

"And when are you coming back?" The other end of the line asked.

"I'll go back now......" Julie glanced around vigilantly and hung up the phone.

……

Li Nuo stared at Julie from a distance.

Then he turned and walked into the dark alley.

"When I asked her about her monthly salary, she hesitated, and a person who works full-time and does a good job in the industry does not have this situation."

"There are three new cameras in the café in different locations."

"Pretending to be crazy and stupid should have deceived them."

"Are these guys Cairoans, or are they Cairoans from Earth?"

"If only there were bugs."

"Forget it...... It's too dangerous, there's no need, just let them think there's something wrong with me and stay away from me. ”

Li Nuo walked into the alley, and all the paths in the vicinity were in his mind, and he could draw a map of every detail, every direction, and even the interior of each shop.

When he made sure that no one was following him, he walked out of the alley.

In a trance, everything seems to have become a pixel art style.

A pixel bus crosses the street, passes his line of sight, and everything around him becomes normal again.

"Now it's ...... Half past eleven. ”

Li Nuo thought about it and went to the library.

……

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

The Witcher of 1850, the savior of Covel, the guardian of the Shadow Elders, the man who sealed the mirror master, the brave man of another world, and the final demon king of blackening, are holding two cakes, nibbling one and carrying one back to their residence.

Li Nuo raised his head and saw that a cordon had been drawn at the entrance of the building.

"Xiao Li?"

Li Nuo turned his head, and it was a certain film policeman who had been staring at him.

"Oh, Brother Zhou."

"Do you know what's going on?" Brother Zhou came up and asked.

Li Nuo said: "I didn't do it. ”

Brother Zhou: "...... Room 401, a female corpse was excavated. ”

With a dark face, Li Nuo stuffed the whole pancake into his mouth.

No way......

Really?

Cairo's people are so serious?

"Huh? Li Nuo? "A man with short hair came from a short distance.

Li Nuo looked over and frowned as he muttered and chewed on the bread.

Then he glared at the dead fish.

"You're in class 6, class 3 Li Nuo, right! It's me, Chen Yuhang! ”

"Ah...... Oh. Li Nuo swallowed and nodded.

"I haven't heard from you since you stopped going to school, and they all say what you do, I'll just say it......"

"Oh no, I'm dead a long time ago." Li Nuo said.

Silence spreads.

Chen Yuhang pursed his lips and said embarrassedly, "You live here, right?" Next month's class reunion, come together,, I really didn't expect to meet here, I heard that there were dead people in the building where you live, do you know what? ”

Li Nuo grinded his teeth.

At this time, Brother Zhou patted him on the shoulder and said with a cold face: "Xiao Li, make a note with me." ”

Chen Yuhang was stunned.

Li Nuo nodded honestly: "Okay." ”

Chen Yuhang watched Li Nuo being taken away in a daze, and only then said to himself: "Grass,......"

Walking out of the distance, Li Nuocai said: "Thank you, Brother Zhou." ”

Brother Zhou: "Seeing that the old classmates are so irritable, everyone can see what's going on, have you bullied?" ”

Li Nuo said: "That's not it, it's not mainly a person all the way, it's just too lazy to contact." ”

Brother Zhou laughed and said very seriously: "What I'm saying is that you bully them." ”

Li Nuo laughed awkwardly, turned his head and said, "Let's get here, I'll wait for you to clean up the scene before going back." ”

"Huh?" Brother Zhou lit a cigarette: "Didn't I say it, go back with me to make a record." ”

Li Nuo: "You have to think that this has something to do with me......

"What if." Brother Zhou exhaled smoke: "We've been squatting on you for a long time." ”

……

Nine o'clock in the evening.

Leno returned home.

He was carrying a leek box given to him by his police friends.

He returned to his seat and pulled out his notebook.

——

Today, cartoonist Li Nuo discovered a murder case in the morning and anonymously informed the relevant personnel of the matter.

With this, the day of the cartoonist begins.

11 p.m. ......

At 11 o'clock in the morning, I met with the editor Brother Qing cordially and met loyal fans and friends.

I had a great conversation with the people at the head office.

However, the cartoonist still refused the other party's invitation, money will corrode human nature, and the royal sister of the head office immediately fell to the face of the cartoonist and disappeared in the vast sea of people.

The cartoonist kindly introduced two girlfriends to his dear editor friend Brother Qing.

Introduced a boyfriend to two female fans.

Then in the alley, he saw through a truth hidden in the darkness.

In the afternoon, the cartoonist, who had fought until he was exhausted in the library, returned home.

I met a male classmate who was obsessed with me.

By the way, he helped his police friends analyze a vicious case of hiding corpses, and in return, he received a bag of leek boxes.

This is the famous cartoonist, an ordinary day.

As in the old days, there is only one person who spends the day slowly.

——

Li Nuo put down the so-called diary and threw the pen on the table.

This is just a complete relief from boredom and a little spice to your boring life.

But when I think about it, I seem to have forgotten something.

Li Nuo glanced at the clock.

"Ah......h

"Tea White ......"

"It's over, forget about her."

He immediately picked up the leek box and stuffed it in his mouth, and kept yelling in his heart that it was over, it was over, it was over!

Ten seconds after swallowing a box, and when he got up and was about to close his eyes and go to the "Endless Corridor", he was suddenly stunned.

He turned around and picked up the pen.

Erased the last line of the diary.

(End of chapter)
