Is it okay not to want to work hard?

The store is not fun, but the food is delicious. Xiaoling can eat happily there. It feels like I should pick Xiaoling up in the afternoon. When Xiaoling has eaten enough, she wants to go home. But it is not safe for her, a second-grade student, to go home, so her mature and steady fifth-grade brother needs to come.

Simply put, it is easy for Dongye Ling to be kidnapped if he goes home alone. If he goes outside alone, he can go into the alleys. Even though he is beautiful, handsome, and has super powers, he can still deal with a few petty thieves without any problem, and he can barely solve the problem even if they rob the thieves' lair.

Japan is not the United States. Like China, the rule here is knife warfare. As long as there are no guns, he believes that his superpowers can hang up and beat the bad guys.

"Luckily I don't have a cell phone."

Higashino Kanade rubbed his nose. Sneezing is a comfortable thing, but if a sneeze fails halfway through, it will be so uncomfortable that you want to crush your nose.

"why?"

Izumi Konata didn't get Higashino Kanade's joke.

"I have a cell phone. If my mom knows I have a cold, she will definitely say it's all because of my cell phone."

This is not speculation by Higashino Kanade, but rather the experience gained from being a son.

I caught a cold because I was playing with my phone. I had a cough because I was playing with my phone. My grades dropped because I was playing with my phone. I got my myopia because I was playing with my phone. I had a poor appetite because I was playing with my phone…

In short, if he is not feeling well, is sick, has health problems, or something else bad happens, his mother can think that he is playing with his mobile phone. Of course, in addition to mobile phones, it can also be TV, computer, or something you like.

Example: "It's all ××'s fault." It could be a person, a thing, or an event. The source of all evil is tā, which is simply the evil of this world.

"don't know."

Izumi Konakata, who was in elementary school, touched her head with a look of Aqua on her face. She wasn't pretending, she really didn't understand. After all, she didn't have a cell phone, and even if she had one, her father wouldn't scold her for playing with it, after all, her father wasn't particularly normal, he was a stay-at-home.

"If you don't understand, then don't understand. When I get to junior high school, um, high school, you'll understand when you come to my house and see my mom scolding me."

Higashino Kanade touched Izumi Konata's head and played with her silly hair. I still remember that when he came home from college, he caught a cold one night after a week. His mother still said that he caught the cold because he played with his phone at night.

How should I put it? At times like this, I should just smile. No, I can’t smile. If I smile, my mother will say something angry like, “Still smiling!”

The problem is what can he do? If he explains well, he will be accused of talking back. If he doesn't explain well, he will be asked why he doesn't speak, and will ask "Are you mute?" or "Are you not convinced?".

It can only be said that children who stay at home for a long time are no longer the darlings of their parents, but the little ancestors that their parents are eager to drive away.

At school, his mental quality is good, but his quality of life is bad. When he goes home, his mental quality is bad, but his quality of life is good. However, his parents are the opposite. When he is at home, his parents have poor mental treatment, but good quality of life. When he is not at home, his parents have good mental treatment, but poor quality of life. This difference is relative to when he is at home.

If it was the first three days after returning home, it would be different. In the first three days, mom and dad were in good spirits and had a good quality of life, but when their love for him wore off, they just wanted to kick him out of the house.

By the way, the same goes for my younger sister Xiaoling. Girls don’t get any preferential treatment. To their parents, both sons and daughters are just stinky babies.

"High school? Hehehe, Xiaozou, you asked me to come to your house when you were in high school, you didn't mean to..."

Quan Konata leaned close to Dongye Kanade's face, and his small face squeezed another small face. The expression on his face had high EQ: mischievous, and low EQ: mean.

A fox without spirit, this is a fox.

Cute.

Higashino Kanade was delighted at Izumi Konata's closeness, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Why did you come to see me so early? Don't tell me you're here to show off your gift."

"Hey, I'm here just to show off my gift. Look, 3DS, 3DS!"

Izumi Konata took out her 3DS from her pocket and looked at Tono Kanade with stars in her eyes.

Praise me, praise me quickly, praise me quickly!

"Wow, that's cool, it's a 3DS."

Higashino Kanade's emotionless reading.

"Oh, don't praise me like that, I'll be embarrassed."

Quan Chifang held her face with her hands and turned her head away from Dongye Zou. She was obviously overwhelmed by Dongye Zou's praise.

This is so easy to handle, it’s so easy to praise, just like Shin-chan.

"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, you can play by yourself. I'm going to sleep."

After saying this, Higashino Kanade prepared to go back upstairs to continue sleeping. As for Ci Fang, it didn't matter whether he went to the study room to turn on the air conditioner to play computer games, or to watch TV wrapped in a blanket in the living room. Anyway, he wanted to catch up on some sleep.

"Don't sleep. Didn't you look at your website? Someone asked you to help exorcise a ghost. The commission is 10,000 yen. Aren't you tempted?"

When these words fell into Higashino Kanade's ears, he instantly woke up from his sleepy state.

"Where is it, what spirit is it, and is the client injured?"

Just now, Izumi Konakata's eyes were full of little stars, and now Tono Kanade's eyes are full of “?”, which is the symbol of the Japanese yen.

Izumi Konata used both hands to fix her hair that was messed up by Tono Kanade and said nonchalantly: "Ahaha, Konata doesn't know."

This guy is playing tricks again.

"If you don't know, you'll get hurt...ah, why don't you know?"

Higashino Kanade also wanted to make a joke, but interrupted it halfway because he was worried that something would go wrong if he said this.

"It's not easy for me to ask others, and I came to see you so early."

Quan Cifang spread out her little hands and stuck out her tongue in a cute way.

It’s not that this recipe is wrong, it has nothing to do with this recipe.

"morning?"

Dongye Kanade looked at the sun outside the window. He checked the time before going downstairs and opening the door. If he remembered correctly, it was almost nine o'clock when he went downstairs.

The cute Izumi Konata didn't say anything, but just blinked his big eyes and continued to act cute.

Look at my innocent eyes.jpg.

This look reminded Higashino Kanade of an old emoticon pack of Izumi Konata.

I won, my fists are hard, I really want to punch this cute girl in the face.

There is no time to waste here, contact the client quickly, making money is important. This party can have sex whenever he wants, but he wants to have sex in the future, and the place does not have to be the living room. Well, it can be the living room, but if it is the first time, it has to be on the bed (make sure).

Chapter 35 Editor and Cartoonist

“Ding—dong—!”

Doorbell rang.

Quan Chifang opened the door and saw two men.

Dangerous!

The plot of this book is coming!!!

There were two men at the door, one had a beard and looked slightly older, and the other had no beard and looked younger.

"Hello, is this Tono Kanade's home?"

The slightly younger of the two men, the one with long hair, asked politely.

Are you here to see Xiaozou? These two uncles have some unique tastes.

Quan Cifang knew that these two people were probably not bad people, but this did not stop her from thinking divergently after having just thought of something strange.

"Yoshida, you should introduce yourself first. Have you forgotten the lesson from yesterday?"

The bearded man spoke.

"I'm sorry, Team Leader."

The man named Yoshida immediately apologized to his team leader and hurriedly introduced himself to Izumi Konata.

They are Yoshida Koji and Hei Yoshihisa, editors of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump editorial department. This visit to Higashino's home was to tell Higashino Kanade that his manga had won the first prize of the Tezuka Award. They came to present him with a certificate of honor, the Tezuka Cup, the vice prize of 100 million yen, and a commemorative shield.

"one million?!"

Izumi Konata was shocked when she heard about the one million yen secondary prize. It was a lot of money. She could buy a lot of games and figures with that much money.

"Yes, is Tono Kanade at home?"

Yoshida Koji's eyes were fixed on Izumi Konata. He thought Izumi Konata was Higashino Kanade, and the Higashino Kanade who answered the phone yesterday was not Higashino Kanade.

Play.

This name looks like a girl's name. The kid who answered the phone yesterday thought he was a salesman and didn't think he could be an editor in the Weekly Shonen Jump editorial department. Although he was partly responsible for not stating his identity directly, the kid who interrupted him at every turn was also at fault.

The second time he called, he hung up after saying just a few words.

If you think he is a salesman or a scammer, you should think about whether a salesman or a scammer would be so idle as to make several calls in a row.

Sorry, I am really that free. It won’t happen four times in a row, but it is possible for two times in a row.

Higashino Kane's phone was a landline, without caller ID, only a call back function. After hanging up the second call, he went to take a shower, and he didn't hear the subsequent call from Yoshida Koji. His landline received calls every week, and the calls were either sales or fraud, from Japanese, Chinese, Chinese, Chinese pretending to be Japanese, and Chinese in Myanmar and the Philippines.

My parents both have cell phones, so it's rare for relatives or friends to call this landline. The purpose of this landline is just to make it convenient for my parents to call him and Xiaoling at home.

Don’t ask why he didn’t fill in his parents’ phone number. If he filled in his parents’ phone number, he wouldn’t be the first to know if he won the prize, and not knowing it the first to know means his prize money will disappear.

One million yen, based on his understanding of his mother, she would definitely not leave him even a bone or soup. Although this money was earned by him, his mother could just keep it for him to pay for tuition, college and marriage.

Whoever holds the money holds the initiative. If it's in his mother's hands, he might only get 1,000 yen, or even 10,000 yen. If it's in his hands, he can buy the painting supplies he wants, especially the drawing tablet, without asking for permission first, and then take his sister and his mother out for a good meal before negotiating with his mother on how to divide the money.

Izumi Konakata didn't expect Yoshida Koji to think she was Tono Kanade. She shook her head and said, "No, Tono Kanade is a boy, not a girl. Although I think the name is very girly, he is indeed a boy. Wait a moment, I'll go call him."

After saying this, Izumi Konata didn't give Yoshida Koji and Pingjiu a chance to react, and ran to call Higashino Kanade. As a guest, it was not a good idea for her to invite two adults into the house, so she called Kanade over first and let him decide.

"Xiaozou, is Jump's editor here?"

Izumi Konata came to the study, put her hands on Higashino Kanade's shoulders, and leaned forward against the back of Higashino Kanade's head. If Izumi Konata is a big sister who can attract people's attention, then this action is a comfortable enjoyment for Higashino Kanade. Unfortunately, Izumi Konata is a little loli who can bring peace to the world. This action is not comfortable at all. It just feels like leaning your head against the wall. The only difference is that the wall is not cold, but very warm.

It would be better if it was soft. How can I sleep on this hard thing?

"What Jump? You Jump, I Jump?"

Higashino Kanade's mind was not very clear. He woke up early this morning and drew on a book until six o'clock. He slept until nine o'clock when this person came and banged on the door. Because he didn't sleep well, his mind was a little dull, and the focus he caught was not the editor, but Jump.

"Editor of Weekly Shonen Jump."

Quan Cifang's tone was helpless.

"Hmm? Jump's editor is here."

Suddenly, Higashino Kanade seemed to realize something. He thought about it carefully, but unfortunately his sleepy head prevented him from grasping the clue that could solve his doubts.

At the door, Yoshida Koji was stamping his feet in the cold wind.

It’s cold. It’s especially cold in Tokyo today.

He regretted not wearing an extra layer of clothing when he went out. He didn't feel the air conditioning in the editorial office, and he didn't feel it when he went out. Now after a while of being in the wind, he found that he was really cold, as cold as his ex-girlfriend's heart. Oh, he didn't have an ex-girlfriend, he didn't even have a current girlfriend, let alone a girlfriend, he couldn't even find a boyfriend.

Well, now it was as cold as his heart.

Yoshida Koji wanted to cry. Today was Christmas Day, and he had to go to work. He should have been slacking off in the editorial department, but he was going to visit Higashino Kanade today, even though he was working occasionally.

I am so sad. I want to go back to the countryside, see my mother, and eat the food she cooks. Working in the big city is so hard and tiring. I want to die.

"Yoshida, cheer up, you look a little ugly. If everything goes well, you may be Tono Kanade's editor in the future."

As Yoshida Koji's team leader, Pingzi Yoshihisa noticed that Yoshida Koji, who had a sullen face, was emitting depression. This resentment was about to condense into a shape, and it was impossible for him not to notice it.

"what?"

Hearing this, Pingzi Jijiu was horrified.

What? The information is... Bah, he wants to be Higashino Kanade's editor. Are you kidding? He wants to go back home in depression without even meeting Higashino Kanade. If he becomes Higashino Kanade's editor, he will be tortured to death. Judging from Higashino Kanade's performance in the Tezuka Award, can he, a newcomer who has been in the industry for less than three years, be competent?

"Team leader, I..."

Before Yoshida Koji could finish his words, the door opened and a voice that was unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar to him appeared.

"Hello, I'm Tono Kanade."

Once again, Yoshida Koji's words were interrupted by Higashino Kanade.

Chapter 36: Some objects that can be folded to solve problems

Higashino Kanade didn't expect that he would win the Tezuka Award this year.

The results of the Tezuka Award will be announced in December, and he submitted his manuscript in December. At the end of the year, the winning comics of the Tezuka Award will appear in the supplement "Akamaru Jump" of "Weekly Shonen Jump". How could he have thought that he could still participate in the competition when the results were about to be announced?

Thinking of his attitude towards the editor who called him yesterday, Higashino Kanade felt embarrassed.

Fortunately, Japan is a society where problems can be solved by folding.
