My girlfriend is Kusunoko Saiki

After President Fujino said this, Nan Yunxiao, who had been looking very proud, felt as if he had eaten something wrong.

When Qingzi heard this, her expression changed in an equally interesting way.

From the ugliness at the beginning to the smile afterwards, it was as if to say, didn’t you get the gold prize either?

But when the screen showed Nan Yunxiao's work, Naoto was a little surprised.

Because in this painting, there is a person practicing.

That’s right, he was actually practicing!

In a large and crisp bamboo forest, a young man is sitting in front of the temple, quietly feeling everything around him.

This feeling seems to be completely inconsistent with Nan Yunxiao's personality.

Based on Naoto's first reaction to Nan Yunxiao, he thought this man was some rich young man.

I didn’t expect that the painting I drew would be so Zen?

What Naoto didn't know was that although Nan Yunxiao could be called a young master, in fact, his family's property was actually a temple.

That’s right, the temple.

Since temples can be privatized in Neon, they can be considered a form of industry.

Don’t underestimate Japan’s temples, a large portion of them can be called big landlords.

So it is correct to say that Nan Yunxiao can be considered a young master.

But unlike other young masters, he also has deep insights into what he has learned.

It can be seen from his paintings that his works have a unique charm.

It's like traditional ink painting expressed in the form of oil painting.

Nan Yunxiao used to be just like an ordinary young man, flirting with women everywhere and doing all kinds of evil.

It was not until he began to practice that he found his own peace.

After he started meditating in the woods for the first time, he found that he felt happy and peaceful in his heart.

Although this statement seems a bit ridiculous to Naoto, at least the other party's paintings do express this kind of charm.

Now that the bronze and silver awards have come out, who will win the gold award?

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look at Naoto Yamashita, the only one among the three favorites to win the championship who hadn't had his name called yet.

If Naoto wins the award this time, it means that Naoto will be a person who won the Youth Bounty Award at the age of only sixteen. Just think about it, this can only be described as terrifying.

What kind of painting did Naoto create to beat these two works and win first place?

Thinking of this, everyone became more curious about Naoto's work.

Under everyone's curious gaze, this time, President Fujino actually placed the two paintings directly on the screen.

Chapter 86: Naoto's Little Secret

When President Fujino released the two paintings, even the winner Naoto himself did not expect such a thing to happen.

What's the point of putting two paintings up here? Could it be that Naoto's painting can be tied for first place?

At this moment, everyone was staring at Naoto's painting, as if they wanted to see something from it.

"Everyone, Mr. Yamashita's work this time is the best work we found in this competition. Although Mr. Yamashita created two works in total, we put these two paintings in the same position. In the creation of the paintings, both paintings boldly used some creative techniques of comics to make the pictures more dynamic. Just one picture makes the viewer feel like they have seen a whole story, and this creative method is completely integrated into the painting without the slightest sense of incoordination. It is precisely because of this that we unanimously believe that Mr. Yamashita is the gold medal of this competition."

After President Fujino finished speaking, many contestants and reporters all carefully observed the two paintings.

Just as President Fujino said, these two paintings are obviously static and there is not even a single line of dialogue in them.

But just relying on one picture, everyone can imagine a series of plots.

The children stayed in a warm room with their parents on a snowy night.

The family is happy, cozy and happy.

My father was looking at the newspaper, hoping to get some new information from it.

The mother peeled the orange for her sister, and the brother pestered her, saying that he wanted to eat it too.

What a touching family picture.

In another work, there are stars in the summer and fireworks scattered everywhere.

The lights in the river seemed to illuminate the entire night sky.

His girlfriend and sister were by his side, as if they were praying for the deceased to be happy.

These two paintings are indeed top-notch works.

Especially the unique way of painting.

Naoto's previous paintings also used this method.

But it is not very obvious. Only after careful study can people see the unique creative method.

This time, Naoto not only improved his painting skills, but also incorporated his unique painting techniques into his paintings, making them more mature.

"Tsk, this guy is really strong!"

"Yamashita Naoto, he is indeed as the rumors say..."

At this time, Sawano Kiyoko and Nan Yun Xiao looked at Naoto's painting and their expressions became serious.

However, although they admitted that Naoto's words were powerful, it was far from possible for them to be convinced by Naoto's paintings.

After all, in their opinion, their works are not inferior to Naoto's paintings.

"Well, I believe everyone is also wondering why we put these two paintings on the list. In fact, it is because Yamashita-kun left us a little surprise. It is precisely because of this surprise that we decided to determine these two paintings as gold medals. As for what the surprise is, let Yamashita-kun show it himself."

When President Fujino finished speaking, the lights in the venue fell directly on Naoto.

Naoto hadn't expected that this matter would also involve his own business.

The people around looked at Naoto Yamashita, wanting to know what kind of surprise he had left inside.

Under everyone's gaze, Naoto couldn't refuse. After all, it had come to this point, and it was hard to turn down such a kind invitation.

"You did a great job, Yamashita-kun. I knew you wouldn't let me down."

When Naoto walked up to the podium, President Fujino was already grinning from ear to ear.

Although he had expected that Yamashita Naoto was a rare talent, he did not expect that Naoto could give him such a big surprise. He deserved the credit for finding someone to trick this guy.

"Thank you for your training, President Fujino."

Although Naoto was so angry that he gritted his teeth, he still walked up with a smile on his face.

At this time, under everyone's curious gaze, Naoto picked up his two paintings.

"President, can I use the equipment here?"

"of course can."

At this time, Naoto was constantly putting his paintings together.

It was only then that everyone realized that the patterns on the edges of Naoto’s two paintings could actually be combined together!

As Naoto continued to combine his paintings and put the images on the screen, gradually, the contestants' faces began to change.

Because after Naoto combined these seemingly chaotic patterns together, the two paintings were combined into a completely new painting.

When the last thing on the screen appeared, a big smile appeared. At first glance, it looked somewhat similar to Naoto Yamashita.

The themes of the two paintings have become the backdrop for the smile, just like the wonderful memories of a person.

"I think everyone knows that my parents passed away before this. After they passed away, I realized how important a family is to a person. No matter how your parents treat you, good or bad, when they are still around, you may not feel it deeply, but when you really lose them, you will feel the heart-wrenching pain. Some things are so precious that you will only understand them after you lose them."

While everyone was still immersed in the imaginative ideas of this painting, Naoto had already begun sharing his own creative experience.

"You may not have noticed, but actually, as early as when I created the vampires, I had already shown my longing for family. Just like when the hero's sister died and the hero had just become a vampire, he saw the homeless grandfather and grandson. Even this work itself was to help the heroine find her father. In fact, I have never been able to get over the death of my parents before."

The people sitting in their seats at this time couldn't help but think that Naoto was just a kid who hadn't even graduated from high school.

How much harm can the departure of parents cause to this child?

"But I am also lucky. During the last Obon Festival, I spent the day with my childhood sweetheart and my sister. It was after that that I realized that happiness must be fought for by oneself. These two paintings, one is to commemorate my past happiness, and the other is to commemorate my exit from that shadow. Family is my understanding of happiness."

When Naoto finished speaking, the entire venue began to burst into thunderous applause.

Nan Yunxiao and Sawano Kiyoko no longer had the resentment they had before.

On the contrary, his face was full of admiration.

Sure enough, only people like this...

Chapter 87: Blood Clan, the End!

"Hey, isn't this our big star? How come you finally decided to come back to class today?"

When Naoto just returned to school, his hated friend Sakuta came up to him. Looking at his smug look, it was obvious that he had been having a very comfortable time recently.

"Huh? You, man, why aren't you going to accompany your really famous girlfriend today?"

Although Naoto hasn't been back to school recently, he's still well aware of what happened to Sakuta.

After all, Naoto also learned from Kusunoki that someone has become a celebrity in the school recently.

Not to mention that he is good friends with the school celebrity Naoto, he even dated the most beautiful girl in the school and has lunch with the beautiful girl every day. Which student can get such an honor?

When those people saw that Sakuta could be with Mai every day, their envy, jealousy and hatred were about to overflow.

That’s what a winner in life is all about.

"Haha, I came here to see you're back. I'm worried that you'd be lonely. Am I being a brother to you?"

"To be honest, if you can do this, I will just wash my hair."

"Uh, Mai-senpai is going to start performing again, so she didn't come to school today."

"I knew you weren't that kind."

Although he said this, Naoto also understood that even if Mai didn't leave, Sakuta would most likely come over.

After all, when it comes to friendship, Sakuta is really impeccable.

"From your looks, you've been busy again recently? How are you, are you okay?"

At this moment, Sakuta suddenly noticed that Naoto looked a little tired, and he looked exactly like he did before when he stayed up late.

"Oh, you're talking about that. It's nothing. I just didn't stop when I was painting, so I stayed up a little late. Although I've been a bit busy recently."

Now it is almost December.

It’s the last working time left for the Bloodline animation to be broadcast.

Although most of the work has been completed long ago, Naoto cannot avoid the work of publicity and promotion.

Moreover, as Vampires is about to come to an end, JUMP itself intends to continue to squeeze out the value of Vampires.

Recently, Naoto even traveled to several regions to sign books.

However, although he was a little tired, Naoto was still quite satisfied with this work.

As for voice actors, with the help of Mr. Takasaka, many big names in the industry soon got involved. Although not all of them were outstanding, Naoto always tried to make sure that each person was voiced by the voice actor who was most suitable for the role.

Naoto also put a lot of thought into the original drawings, striving for the best. The quality of many of his original drawings is even much better than his own comics.

Finally, in terms of the plot, although Naoto does not have much room to intervene, he can be sure that the production team this time are very responsible and will not do anything fancy to disappoint the audience.

In short, Naoto is very confident about this animation.

If you calculate the time, the last episode of Bloodlines will be finished soon. Including the release of the last volume, it should be the day after the animation is released. By then, it is estimated that there will be another wave of blood and gore.

Although he was very tired, Naoto was still quite satisfied in his heart. After all, this was the first anime he created.

"Ha, but to be honest, I feel more relaxed in school than outside. Being able to chat with you for a few minutes is already a break."

"Le, I don't really understand you creative people, but to be honest, if I were to look for a job in the future, I would definitely not choose to do this kind of work."

"That's right. After all, it's normal that the pig-headed boy doesn't know much about this kind of thing. How about you be my bodyguard in the future? Brother, I won't treat you unfairly."

"Ha, that's a good feeling, but let me make it clear, if there's real danger, I won't go."

"You bastard, what use are you to me?"
