Cartoonist's Dream

Chapter 117: Delusion of persecution

Sunday, September 9th, ten days after the new issue went on sale.

The phone calls of Shangguo Publishing House have been quieted down a lot, but occasionally idle people call in and ask some rather childish questions.For example: Why haven't I received the magazine even after it's been released for several days?

...How could a parcel sent by surface mail be received within a few days!

After the reprinted new issue was released, the members of Shangguo Publishing House were still very tired doing customer service on the phone. They were already considering whether to ask two customer service girls with sweet voices to answer the phone.

"You... hello, this is Shangguo Publishing House." [

Liang Zi, who is idle to serve tea and water after work, is indeed suitable for the job of customer service.His voice is sweet, but he often looks anxious and worried about saying the wrong thing. Even people who are angry will become extremely soft-hearted.

"Good morning Ryoko, why are you answering the phone this time? Where is the idle person who usually answers the phone?"

The authors of the new journal in the mainland, Li Mu, who has six authors in one, suddenly called.

"Ah, it's Mr. Li Mu, long time no see..." Although this author makes the work busy, the whole publishing house is still happy.Hearing him asking about idlers inexplicably, Ryoko thought for a moment, and it took him a long time to realize who he was looking for. "Is it the president? She has a hoarse throat. Wait a moment."

Liangzi said that Lu Lingling's throat was hoarse and she told people to wait. People who didn't know thought that Lu Lingling was very busy, even if her throat was inflamed, she still worked overtime on weekends.Li Mu was misled for such a moment and had the image of Lu Lingling suffering and working overtime in the office wearing a headscarf, and felt that her spirit had really weakened a lot.

"Hey, isn't this Li Mu? I thought something happened to you after I haven't heard your voice for so long."

Her voice was not even half hoarse, and she was not busy at all, she rushed over and picked up the microphone almost at the same time Ryoko said to wait a moment.

"Why didn't you call when I thought something happened to me?"

"Called twice, but no one answered."

"Oh, it was called at night, I unplugged the phone line."

"Why don't you unplug the phone?" After hearing this abnormal behavior from Li Mu's mouth, Lu Lingling caught it immediately and asked back without thinking.

"That's why I'm calling you. Can you hire a bodyguard for me? Ask Elisabelle if she has a way."

On the other end of the phone, Li Muli's voice seemed a little embarrassed, at least it didn't sound as good as hers.

"Hey, have you had a good rest recently? Bodyguard? What happened to you?"

"Almost, I always feel that someone is staring at me recently, and that gaze seems to want to eat me crunchy..."

…that was a cannibalistic look directed at him only.To strip him clean, eat him dry and wipe him clean, in short, it is very, very stare that makes his pores terrified.

Hearing that her family's "money tree" seemed to be suffering from some serious illness, Lu Lingling asked tentatively, "You are too nervous to finish the draft, you have paranoid or something like that."

"If I'm just delusional, why would I be so troubled, that person keeps harassing phone calls every night, and after unplugging the phone line, he will keep calling in the morning, noon, noon, and night of the next day..."

…Because I don’t know what kind of aggressive behavior the other party will cause if I completely stop the phone call, I was terrified when I unplugged the phone line for the first time, but I was relieved when the harassing calls continued the next day. [

"Ah, so, what kind of bodyguard do you want?"

Having said that, Lu Lingling actually didn't know what to do. Although Elisabel seemed to have a lot of background, in fact, she never brought a bodyguard when she went out.The money she can use is only about 100 million euros. If she wants to get more money from her sister or elders, she must put forward a legitimate reason that is allowed by them.

Li Mu's best-selling manga "Fullmetal Alchemist" is a single book, and the profit divided into his hands is about 1000 million.Although Fuyu is rich, his property is not at the level of hiring bodyguards.But it's hard to say, he's a kid at the age of insecurity, and he's a multi-millionaire promoted from a petty citizen.

(I feel confused and difficult to adapt for a while, and think of danger when I get a little bit of stimulation...) Lu Lingling guessed.In fact, she is a delicate person, otherwise, it is impossible to step on the bottom line of her members' heart every time.

"I give a monthly salary of about [-] to [-] yuan, and I don't want a first-class bodyguard, but he must be honest, and his ability is firstly sensitive, followed by dexterity, and the third is able to fight. It is best to be a man who looks strong and powerful."

(Man?... Gossip news says that his father is a gambler and often doesn't come home at night... A child is afraid of ghosts at night and stays with his parents, but he only has his mother at home at night.) Lu Lingling thought about it this way, and felt that The reason for Li Mu's insecurity is more from his father.

But in fact, Li Mu didn't take his own psychological factors into consideration, mainly because he wanted to choose a bodyguard with keen eyesight and ability to catch the person who wanted to kidnap him.When he thought about it, the gangsters called at night just to spy on his work and rest time, and to judge who was at home at a certain time.

Under the rule of the party and the state, the world is bright (Fog), he does not believe that such a thing as assassination will happen to him.At most, it could only be a street fight. Any bodyguard should have learned fighting skills, right?Not to mention counting one as ten, at least "I will go first, and you will be the last" is still possible.Therefore, Li Mu ranked the bodyguard's combat ability last.

If you want to fight, just invite two or three retired soldiers, and if you pull them out at night, you can sweep the Nanhua Night Market, from Snack Street to Mawei Lane, and back from Mawei Lane.

But if you win, you will enter the game, and if you lose, you will be beaten.If you accidentally get into a fight with some official's son, under the bright and bright world, you will have to get into a mess whether it is justified or not.

In the final analysis, to invite a bodyguard, you must hire a deterrent man. It is the wisest choice to let people not dare to use their brains when they see it from a distance, and to avoid conflicts.If you invite a heroic female bodyguard to go out, you won't be a coquettish woman, wait for her to be molested, and then give her a gorgeous backhand?

Li Mu doesn't want to deliberately cause trouble like the manga protagonist.

So I ask for a man~

"It's a lot to ask for... 2 yuan, I'll talk to Anya, she's more familiar with it." 2 yuan is worth 2000 yuan in the eu alliance, and you can only hire a chopsticks to wash the dishes there. Dishwasher.

"I'm not talking about it, but I have to say it seriously, that is really a terrifying sight that will eat me whole, as if it is ready to arrest me anytime and anywhere! Maybe I will be kidnapped when school starts tomorrow !” Li Mu said with certainty.

"So serious!?" Lu Lingling couldn't understand Li Mu's feelings at all, having never encountered the kind of scorching gaze that almost burned through the skin. In short, she patted her chest and said, "Okay, there is no problem, just leave it to me!"

You are old.

Hearing the words of the person who was not in charge, Li Mu's expression on the other side of the phone immediately tensed up.

"Oh, forget it, I'll tell Anya myself." He sighed.

"She has gone back to England and is not at the Society now."

"You don't want to make a multilingual version again, do you? Is a magazine worth it?"

"Hey, since it's a good magazine, it will definitely be able to open up the market. If it can sell one copy, sell one more. With Ryoko and Anya here, at least it doesn't cost money to translate into English and Japanese. We want to go international, um, internationalization .”[

It's international...

Limu has no objection to exporting overseas, but "Boutique" is not Time Magazine, so it takes so much effort for a mere comic magazine.Since they are willing to work hard, Limu can talk about it. Although he can only get a share of the magazine's authorship fee, the magazine is equivalent to a single-edition brochure to him.

The more widely the magazine is advertised, the better it will sell the booklet.Readers like those who only like "Jiu Ding Ji" in the whole magazine and wait patiently will generally give up buying the magazine and choose to buy a single volume with richer content.

"I don't care about your affairs, but you must remember mine!" Li Mu finally reminded.

"remember remember"

Because she said it twice in a row, it made people even more worried...
