What does it have to do with me if they hate vests?

It was obvious that she was trying her best to reproduce the two damaged pages before Dongwei Kishige arrived.

Although she was not confident that she could draw a character with the same charm as Fuyuo Kishihisa, at least she was very familiar with the structure of the picture.

But when I picked up the paintbrush, I was still a little dazed.

"No, Mashiro, your physical condition has reached its limit. You should rest quickly!"

Nanami Aoyama shook her head. She looked at Shiina Mashiro, whose face was pale and bloodless. The way she suddenly fell down was still vivid in her mind. Nanami Aoyama gritted her teeth and said with great determination: "This is my fault. I will accept any punishment from Mr. Fuyuo..."

"Xiao Qi Hai..."

"truth……"

When Dongwei Anjiu pushed the door open, he saw the two little ones hugging each other and crying.

Fuyio Kishihisa: "...?"

Chapter 367: Sticking

After pulling the two apart, Fuyuo Kishihisa finally understood what had happened from their conversations (mainly Aoyama Nanami talking, with Shiina Mashiro just supplementing), and he felt a little amused.

That's it?

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem incomprehensible.

Children think differently from adults. Many times, things that seem insignificant to adults may seem like big, sky-dropping events to children.

Take school bullying for example. Apart from some really extreme cases, most bullying is just hiding indoor shoes, scribbling on textbooks, putting a vase on the desk, etc.

In the eyes of many adults, these "little things" are not excessive at all, and are even a little cute. However, from the perspective of bullied children, they feel isolated and helpless to the point of despair, so they skip school and become cocooners.

So Fuyuo Kishiku picked up the stack of manuscripts and looked through them, then coughed and said, "If only those two sheets are missing, don't worry..."

After a pause, he smiled at Mashiro and said, "The background is beautifully drawn."

Mashiro stared at him blankly, then lowered her head after a moment, not sure whether she was shy or felt it was natural.

"But……"

Nanami Aoyama lowered her head, her small hands, which were not very fair due to her frequent part-time jobs, tightly grasped the corner of her clothes, and said softly, "Aren't you going to take it to print today?"

"It's okay to delay it for a day or two after a little communication with the editor."

Fuyuo Kishiku shook his head: "And to be honest, this isn't a big problem that needs to be postponed."

Nanami Aoyama looked confused: "Huh?"

Dongwei Anjiu didn't say anything else, but took out a hairband from his pocket and tied his snow-white hair behind his head.

Perhaps influenced by the inherent impression that "all artists have long hair", among the several aliases including the real one, Fuyuo Kishikyu's hair is the longest.

According to the role-playing tips obtained from the system, Shiki is also gradually perfecting the character of Fuyuo Kishikyu: When he was in good health at the beginning, Fuyuo Kishikyu could occasionally show up, but as his appearances increased, his physical condition deteriorated, and his personality became the most peaceful among all the vests. Conversely, his hair also grew a lot longer because he was unkempt or unable to take care of it. In this case, Fuyuo Kishikyu with a ponytail is in "serious mode".

Then he took two blank sheets of manuscript paper from the table, sat down in front of the table with a serious expression on his pale face, picked up the liner pen and started drawing directly on the manuscript paper.

It was as if he had drawn it countless times and knew all the lines by heart. A page of comics that usually takes a cartoonist at least an hour to complete appeared in Fuyuo Kishihisa's handwriting in one go, without any pause along the way, and was extremely smooth.

Not only the main character, but also the background is almost completely painted, leaving only some shadows and dots.

The only thing that made Aoyama Nanami and the others feel uneasy was that it seemed as if Fuyu Kishige was drawing with his own blood instead of ink. After one page of the comic, his face, which had already lost its color to begin with, turned pale, which made people feel extremely distressed.

After finishing one page, Fuyuo Kishi just took a short breath and then picked up his pen to start the next page.

"Wait a minute, Dongwei-san, how about you take a break?"

Nanami Aoyama couldn't help but persuade her.

Otherwise, she always felt that by the time she finished this page, Fuyuou Kishiku would almost collapse...

"No need. You and Mashiro have been together for so long, you should know how uncomfortable it is to be interrupted when you are creating, right?"

Dongwei Kishi shook his head.

"But……"

Nanami Aoyama was speechless. Self-blame and guilt kept eating away at her heart. She didn't know what to say.

"That's right." Suddenly, Mashiro spoke and looked at Aoyama Nanami: "Little Nanami, help me tie my hair."

"Mashiro?" Nanami was stunned.

"I am the assistant." Shiina Mashiro said seriously, "Leave the background to me."

Fuyuo Kishihisa paused for a moment, and then a weak but gentle smile appeared on his face: "Okay, my assistant."

Seeing this, Nanami Aoyama slapped her face hard.

She took out her spare hair tie, tied a ponytail for Shiina Mashiro, and then brought another chair from the side.

The girl's expression was serious and full of awareness: "Let me take care of all the trivial work such as blackening and posting dots. If it's just this kind of thing, I can do it!"

Dongwei Kiku looked at Aoyama Nanami and a more relieved smile appeared on his face.

In the past, Nanami Aoyama always had some vague resistance to working here, and Fuyu Kishi naturally knew that the girl with her own ambitions was dissatisfied with the fact that she was almost being "kept".

The reason why she still stays here is not so much because of the greed for the rewards, but more because she wants to repay Fuyuo Kishi for helping her resolve the conflict between her and Mashiro.

Even though Fuyuo Kishihisa has tried to get closer to the other party and Aoyama Nanami has behaved very normally, the kind of distant gap still exists.

Until now, although Fuyu Kishi still cannot say that the other party has accepted his identity from the bottom of his heart, but at least at this moment, Aoyama Nanami does regard herself as a member of the Fuyu Comics Studio and wants to contribute her own efforts for the studio.

So the three of them began to complete the last page of the drawing with an unspoken understanding.

☆

Although Fuyuo Kishihisa, as a cartoonist, should be under the charge of the Lotus Group in Maple Leaf Publishing, due to the special fact that he was introduced by Natsume Makura-ryu, his editor-in-charge is still the new editor of the Snow Group, Shirakawa Kyo.

The latter has been very busy preparing for the Natsume Award recently. She finally had some time to rest, and yesterday she received a call asking her to come to the Dongwei Comics Studio to collect her manuscripts.

Although the girl really liked "That Snow", she was still somewhat dissatisfied about being called out of her vacation, and planned to find fault with the new work of Mr. Dongwei.

"This should be it...but there's no response when I knock on the door, huh?"

Standing in front of the Dongwei Comics Studio and knocking on the door without success, Shirakawa Kyo suddenly discovered that the door was not locked.

She swallowed and whispered, "Excuse me?", then walked into the house carefully.

Then, in a room that was probably the living room, they found Fuyuo Kishihisa and his two assistants sleeping.

Dongwei Kishi was sitting in the middle of the sofa. On his left was a chestnut-haired girl with a ponytail who was subconsciously holding Dongwei's hand and pressing her body against her. On the other side, a beautiful girl with long, almost light golden hair was lying on the right side of the sofa. Her long thighs crossed the thighs of Dongwei Kishi and the chestnut-haired girl, making the three of them look extremely close.

If there was no scent of heather in the air, then in Shirakawa-kyo, the evaluation of "intimate" would have been replaced by something even more disgusting.

Chapter 368: The Decaying Smell of Death

Although the intimate nap of the pretty boy and girl looked as beautiful as a painting, Shirakawa Kyo was not an idle person after all. There was still a lot of work waiting for her to do in the club. Although the overtime subsidy of Maple Leaf Club was also very tempting, after repeated consideration, she still woke up the three sleeping people.

Not long after waking up, Nanami Aoyama immediately realized what was going on. She shyly took Mashiro Shiina, who was still rubbing her sleepy eyes with a confused look on her face, and fled upstairs, leaving Fuyuo Kishige alone on the sofa, facing Shirakawa Kyo's playful smile.

"Teacher Fuyuo is really lucky, but I suggest you stop doing this kind of thing."

"A so-called man is someone who can never say 'no' at any time." Fuyuo Kishihisa answered seriously.

"Are all men idiots..." Shirakawa Kyo complained, and then took a closer look at Fuyuo Kishihisa's face: "Seriously, does Fuyuo-sensei really not need to go to the hospital?"

That kind of sickly paleness obviously could not be explained by 'the body being hollowed out'. Instead, it was more like the feeling of some chronic disease that had become terminal, which made Shirakawa Kyo feel vaguely uneasy.

"I am receiving proper medical treatment," Fuyuo Kishihisa knew that if he emphasized that he was fine at this time, it would only draw more attention from the other party, so he simply said so, and added a sentence to enhance his credibility: "And it's that Nakano Hospital."

"That's good."

Shirakawa-kyō had also heard of Nakano Hospital, a very high-end private hospital. Because it was invested and built by Maple Leaf Technology, it has installed many ultra-high-end medical equipment that have not yet been made public. The doctors are also invited by the president, Nakano Maruo, and they are all medical masters, without the usual problem of uneven quality of doctors in private hospitals.

However, Nakano Hospital is a special hospital for Maple Leaf Technology, and most of its services are only provided to people related to Maple Leaf Technology. Shirakawa Kyo only knew that there was such a hospital in Tokyo because of his work at Maple Leaf, and it is even more difficult for outsiders to make an appointment even if they know of the existence of this hospital.

Since the other party has already gone to the Nakano Hospital for treatment, there is not much more to say.

Shirakawa Kyo picked up the comic manuscript on the table and began to read it quickly.

Unlike novels, reading novels quickly will omit a lot of important content, and can only roughly judge the plot and writing level. Comics are different. Even if you quickly flip through them, the style and composition of the comics can allow people to absorb more information.

At first, Shirakawa Kyo was expecting to read a youth love story that was as sad and memorable as "That Snow". However, he was stunned by the abrupt introduction of the "world of death" after just reading a few pages.

As she continued to flip through the pages, she finally confirmed that the love comics drawn by Fuyuo Kishihisa this time were completely different from the love comics like "That Snow" and were more unconventional and unorthodox comics.

However, the battle of wits between Light Yagami and L has some flavor of orthodox hot-blooded comics. The back-and-forth moves make the plot reach one climax after another, and one has to be on edge at all times.

Even though Shirakawa Kyo doesn't like suspense and youth comics, she was able to read Fuyu Kishi's new work all the way through without any hindrance, and she didn't feel uncomfortable at all. She was just amazed at the extraordinary wisdom of the characters - you know, many times, if a character does not show the wisdom set and the author insists on bragging about his high IQ, the readers will feel embarrassed and subconsciously disgusted with his pretentiousness, which can easily make people lose their minds from the story and thus lower their evaluation of the story.

However, the behaviors of the characters in "Death Note" are consistent with their identities. The duel between the genius high school student Light Yagami and the genius detective L has greatly elevated the intelligence of both of them, which not only shocks the readers, but also makes them look forward to the next fight between the two!

Although there was no smoke or sharp blades in the open, the confrontation in secret was no less dangerous than the flashing of swords and sabers. No matter who it was, if they were not careful, they would lose everything.

“This is gone…”

When he turned to the last page, Shirakawa Kyo felt lost because the plot came to an abrupt end at the climax.

"A good story has to be told slowly," said Fuyuo Kishikyu leisurely, but his face was tired and visible. "It would be a pity to finish it all at once."

I'm just afraid that you'd die suddenly, leaving behind only half of the Death Note, which would be even more heartbreaking than "That Snow".

The girl muttered in her heart.

But such words obviously cannot be said.

"I just feel sorry for the readers." Shirakawa Kyo maintained a ladylike smile and said very professionally.

"Now that you've finished reading it, is there anything that needs to be revised?" asked Fuyuo Kishi.

As the person who has the final control over the cartoonist's work, the editor-in-charge often joins the creation as a collaborator. Therefore, in addition to the cartoonist's own lack of ability, the editor-in-charge also has an unshirkable responsibility for the out-of-control of some comic plots.

In addition, some editors, in order to satisfy their own desire for power, will find faults in their authors' works and ask them to make revisions, even if there is nothing wrong with them. Finally, they will say on various occasions that the other party's success is the result of their help.

Shirakawa Kyo is obviously not such a person.

"No problem at all, Mr. Fuyu's work is perfect as always."

She was quite satisfied with the quality of "Death Note", and the comic itself also inherited the super high-quality painting of "Natsuki". Some of the close-ups across the pages were full of boldness. The exquisiteness of the painting, the embodiment of human aesthetics, could not be exaggerated to be called a work of art.

Such a perfect work does not need any unnecessary modification. It is best to release it in its current form!

Be sure to say if there is any problem.

"I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel that there is a smell like a rag wiped with milk on the manuscript paper..."

"This is the rotten smell of death." Dongwei Kishi said solemnly.

"Is that so?"

The girl was stunned by the fright. Could it be that this story was so profound that she could smell the scent of death outside the story?

She just subconsciously put the manuscript into the bag she brought with her: "Anyway, I did receive your manuscript."

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Dongwei Kishi nodded.

"Oh, there's one more thing." When Shirakawa Kyo was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and asked Fuyuo Kishihisa, "Teacher Fuyuo, are you interested in the closed beta test qualification for the full immersion game? If you are interested, we at Maple Leaf can provide it, along with the two assistants."

Chapter 369: Yamada Fairy's New Book

Time passed quickly, and I don’t know whether it was intentional or coincidental, but both Haruta Masaki and Fuyuo Kishihisa were qualified to participate in the closed beta test of "Sword Art Online".

On the contrary, I am not qualified to join the test yet - Yamada Fairy's new work has not yet been released.

Since Shiki doesn't have abilities like the jutsu of splitting himself into two, he will probably join the game's closed beta test as Washimiya Shiki. However, as the holder of the highest authority in the game, it shouldn't be a big problem for him to switch accounts at any time in the game.

Because of the time spent dealing with adolescent syndrome, a lot of things had accumulated under other aliases. In the past two days, Si Ji had been running around without affecting his original life, and had managed to deal with most of the backlog.

When he dragged his tired steps back to Washimiya Dormitory, the Yamada Fairy was already waiting for him in the house.

When Shiki saw the girl, he pulled himself together: "Oh, you're here already? Wait a minute, I'll go prepare dinner now..."

"You wait."

The Yamada Fairy grabbed his shoulder and said, "I don't know where you went, but you're so tired that you're staggering. Leave the cooking to me."

"This isn't tired at all. I used to be able to work so hard without sleeping for three days straight..."

Si Ji grumbled unconvinced.

It would be better to say that in the first two years after crossing over to this world, working very hard was the norm, and I actually did go without sleep for three consecutive days - although I only recovered after that by sleeping for a whole day.

"What kind of life did you lead before..."
