Is it okay not to want to work hard?

He was not the only one like this in the class. Students like Konata, Koji and others were also like this. However, the reason they sighed was different from his. He sighed because of the animation, while they sighed because of the start of school.

Back again, the cage.

Although Japanese schools generally start late and end early, which seems particularly relaxing to Chinese high school students, there are students who are unwilling to go to such relaxing schools.

Different environments have different tolerance levels.

Besides, some universities have few professional courses and few things to do. Shouldn't college students not want to go to class? I really love learning, but only a few people love learning. Most people don't hate learning, but at least they don't like to do boring learning every day.

In the new semester, the class seats were rearranged again.

However, no matter how they adjusted the seats of Higashino Kanade and Izumi Konata, they could never be as close as they were in elementary school. This was because Higashino Kanade was getting taller and taller, while Izumi Konata's height would never grow after the sixth grade.

She was stuck in the sixth grade forever.

It may seem ambiguous to say this, but this is the fact. I have not grown taller and my body has not developed. This is probably how my life will be.

She was a loli before, she is a loli now, and she will still be a loli in the future, or should I say the Child-like Grandma of Tianshan?

In the class, Izumi Konata was in the first row and Higashino Kanade was in the last row, but although he was far away from Konata, he was very close to Nozomi.

"What do you understand? (What do you not understand)"

Nishimiya Naoko, who was sitting in front of Higashino Kanade, turned around and asked in confusion as she looked at Higashino Kanade with a gloomy face.

"Nothing." Dongye Kanade shook his head and said perfunctorily, "It's just that time has come, it's time to listen to QQ music, and I want to have some time with Xiao E."

"?"

Nishimiya Naoko tilted her head. She didn’t understand what Xiaozou meant by NetEase Cloud Music.

She has known Xiaozou since childhood, but she still can't match Xiaozou's vibes 100%. The only one who can perfectly match Xiaozou's vibes is Cifang. It can only be said that childhood sweethearts are different. Compared with Cifang, she and Xiaozou have known each other for several years less.

"Glass, the results of the newcomer award will be announced this month, are you worried?"

Higashino Kanade remembered the comic submitted by Nishimiya Shoko. The results of the newcomer award that Shoko participated in this month will be announced soon. He didn't know whether Shoko was nervous or not, but she was very nervous.

"I'm worried." Nishimiya Glass nodded, "I've tried my best, but I did."

I have tried my best, and there is nothing I can do if I fail.

The comics industry is very cruel. It is difficult and hard to be a cartoonist. After all, there are so many people who paint in this country, and there are many people who want to be cartoonists, but there are very few who actually become cartoonists.

It's the same in any industry. It's very hard to become one of the best. Although Houbunsha is not as good as Shueisha, it is quite famous as a comic magazine publisher. After all, many of its works are girls' favorites, which can easily attract the attention of yuri fans. Although yuri is a niche, the fan stickiness is still very high.

"Ah."

Higashino Kanade nodded slightly.

Try your best, do your best, and have a clear conscience. If you fail, then let it go. If you fail the first time, try again.

Well, it was the World War II Houbunsha, not the World War II without Poland. If it was Japan, it wouldn't just be a problem of secondary atomic bombs. They might have to drop one or more light (hydrogen) bombs.

"If you become a cartoonist, you won't be able to be my assistant anymore, right?"

Dongye Kanade thought about this and wondered if he should find an assistant. He might as well get Xiaoling to be his assistant. Xiaoling's painting skills were getting better and better anyway, and it didn't matter if she was an assistant, as she only needed to do things like blackening and pasting dot paper.

"I will continue to be Kominato's assistant."

Nishimiya Glass doesn't think that she can't be Tono Kanade's assistant after she draws comics. If she becomes a cartoonist, she will be a cartoonist for a monthly magazine, not a hard weekly magazine. A weekly magazine needs to draw more than 20 pages a week, while a monthly magazine only draws more than 20 pages a month. She will definitely have time to be Tono Kanade's assistant and help him draw.

"Really? That would be very hard. You have to draw comics and help me draw comics at the same time."

Higashino Kanade couldn't help but touch Nishimiya Naoko's face while smiling. Some classmates in the class saw this scene and quickly turned their heads away. Although they were used to it, they still couldn't accept their display of affection like this.

Some people are in sweet love since junior high school, while some people want to fall in love but still can’t find one until they graduate from college.

"Will not."

Nishimiya Glass shook his head.

She doesn't think being Tono Kanade's assistant is a hard job. Instead, she thinks it is a very happy and enjoyable thing.

"That's it."

Dongye Zou smiled and said nothing.

He could understand Naoko's feelings and thoughts. After all, they had known each other for so many years and had had in-depth communication. Basically, they were just old enough to get married. He could understand what Naoko was thinking, and Naoko could mostly understand what he was thinking.

Well, there are actually quite a lot of people who can understand what he is thinking from his words. After all, all he thinks about is painting or being upset. Even if he is not thinking about being upset, he is still thinking about something related to being upset.

Chapter 39 Higashinari Sunflower

The results of Houbunsha's Newcomer Award are out.

Nishimiya Shoko received a good result in the Newcomer Award, which was enough for her to serialize her comics in Houbunsha's monthly magazine.

Because "The Daily Life of a Cartoonist" is a daily comic of a unit drama, it is easy to adapt a short story into a long one, and Glass originally prepared a long comic, and the short story participating in the competition just took a story from "The Daily Life of a Cartoonist".

This is a bit like when Higashino Kanade submits comics, the short comic is a story within the long comic, but the characters are different.

After Nishimiya Shoko won the award, the editor of Houbunsha contacted Nishimiya Shoko and asked her if she had any thoughts on debuting as a professional manga artist. After getting a positive answer, they prepared to arrange a time and place to meet.

After agreeing on the time and place, we just have to wait for that day to arrive to discuss the signing of the contract.

Because Nishimiya Shoko still has some speech problems, Higashino Kane will accompany her throughout the meeting with her editor. By the way, he wants to see what kind of person Shoko's editor is. Although Shoko said that the person who called her was a woman, it is possible that it was not a man who sounded like a girl. (Confirmed)

In this world where genders are more numerous than elements, it is normal to not be sure of the other person's gender before meeting. Even if you meet, you may not be able to determine the other person's gender.

For example, some people meet with beautiful girls in the group with the intention of getting to know each other well, but they don't expect that it will turn into a competition to see who is better than them before getting to know each other well, or it may end up being a game of driving Tiger tanks and armed helicopters.

Time quickly came to the day when Nishimiya Shoko met with the editor.

Higashino Kanade returned to Ikebukuro and met Nishimiya Shoko at the agreed place, and then went to the meeting place with the editor of Houbunsha together.

The meeting place was a cafe that Tono Kanade and Nishimiya Shoko had been to on dates more than once.

When Higashino Kanade and Nishimiya Naoko entered the store, they saw the editor of Houbunsha sitting by the window. Don't ask why they could be recognized immediately after entering the store. The answer is that there was only one customer in the store, and before they arrived, the editor called them and said that she had arrived and was sitting by the window.

It was nine in the morning. Although it was Saturday, there were no other customers in the coffee shop at this time. Coffee shops are usually where young people come back. On Saturdays, young people are either working as office workers or staying in bed at nine o'clock. Even if they wake up, they are unlikely to go to the coffee shop to drink, unless they are really free.

"Ok?"

When Higashino Kanade saw the editor of Houbunsha, he was startled. He felt that the editor looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

He quickly used his mental power to search through the dusty memories in his brain to see if this face in reality had appeared in his memory.

Mayu Aizawa is from the manga "Comic Girls" published by Houbunsha.

Is he the 2D editor of Houbunsha?

Higashino Kanade didn't expect to meet another anime character here, but he didn't have a deep impression of this show. He had never read the comic "Comic Girls", only the anime. Because he had only watched it once, the characters in it didn't quite fit his XP system, so he didn't have any other feelings except that the girls in the anime were cute.

Speaking of which, "Lucky Star" is actually the same for him. Although he has watched "Lucky Star" a lot, the otakus all say that one should marry a wife like Sakuraba Aoi and have a daughter like Izumi Konata. When he first met Konata, he and Konata were both very young, and he took care of Konata like his daughter. Later on, he didn't know why "fatherly love deteriorated" and became Akizuki Kozo.

Well, having said that, he actually didn't take Cifang with him much, he just played with Cifang. It's normal for him to fall in love with Cifang over time, because they are together day and night and accidentally fall in love with her, just like distance.

If everyone knew each other in junior high school, he probably wouldn't date Konata, but would treat Konata as a friend. If he wanted a lover, he would probably choose the tomboy-like Yuzuru. If it was limited to girls in the school, it would probably be Kagami.

How to put it, love at first sight and love that develops over time are different. The former is an impulse, while the latter is the true heart after gradually getting to know each other.

Speaking of it, he fell in love with Nozomi at first sight, but probably because he was a pervert, he liked the fragile feeling of Nozomi. Although he also liked the strong Nozomi, he just liked the fragility and coldness of the sickly girl. Nozomi in her childhood did not have coldness, but had a faint sense of fragility, like a fragile flower that would dissipate as soon as the wind blew.

When Mayu Eizawa saw Tono Kanade and Nishimiya Shoko coming over, she realized that the girl between them was Nishimiya Shoko.

She said she brought a friend with her, and he looked like her boyfriend.

Mayu Eizawa briefly looked at Nishimiya Naoko, and then briefly looked at Higashino Kanade.

The beautiful girl and the handsome boy look like a perfect match.

Is this youth? It’s so good. Unlike her, she was always indifferent to love before, and she is still always indifferent to love now.

However, why does this boy look a little familiar, as if I have seen him somewhere before.

"Hello."n/a-*n/ji/n-首*/*發

Higashino Kanade nodded politely and pulled Nishimiya Naoko to sit down. He first introduced Naoko and then himself, "Nishimiya Naoko, she is the one who submitted the comics to your company. My name is Higashino Kanade, and I'm a cartoonist for Weekly Shonen Jump. Naoko is my assistant, and it was my suggestion to let her submit the comics to your company."

"Eh?"

Mayu Eizawa was stunned when she heard Kanade Higashino say that he was a cartoonist for Weekly Shonen Jump.

Hashidou Madai, Higashino Kanade? !

Bad Ringo!

If Mayu Eizawa knew how to say "Fuck", she would have said "Fuck, you... bad Ringo".

Is that so? No wonder she felt the style of "The Daily Life of a Cartoonist" was very familiar, like "The False Hero". Although the styles are obviously different, some of the styles are very similar to the manga "The False Hero". It turns out that the two of them know each other.

Since there is a professional cartoonist here, many things become much more convenient. Mayu Eizawa does not need to spend a lot of energy explaining to Nishimiya Glass about reader survey rankings, royalties, assistants and other things. There is also no need to explain too much about the royalties, for fear that the other party will think it is too low.

As soon as the name came out, Mayu Eizawa knew what it meant.

She couldn't stand it. It was hard enough for her to be single at her age, and now it was even harder for her to have a handsome boyfriend as a signed new cartoonist. What was even harder was that they were showing off their affection in broad daylight. The name was like pouring dog food into her mouth.

Chapter 40 Celebration Party

Nishimiya Shoko became a cartoonist for Houbunsha as she wished.

However, if her comics want to be serialized, she has to wait until November. After all, her comics are serialized in Houbunsha's monthly magazine, which means that a cartoonist's work has to leave the monthly magazine, and leaving takes time.

"Congratulations, congratulations. Let's go outside and hold a celebration party to celebrate Glass becoming a cartoonist."

Hiroi Kikuri waited for Tono Kanade and Nishimiya Shoko to come back, and when she learned that Shoko had signed a contract with Houbunsha, she immediately congratulated them. Then, she took out a dagger and tried to assassinate them without even hiding the map of Yan State.

"Holding a celebration party? You just want to have a good drink."

Higashino Kanade saw through Hiroi Kikuri's little thoughts at a glance.

The fact that Shoko became a professional cartoonist had nothing to do with Kikuri. Shoko didn't even mention holding a celebration party, but Kikuri was clamoring for one. She really used the excuse of celebrating for Shoko, but what she really wanted was to drink.

"Hey, you found me."

Hiroi Kikuri smiled innocently and touched her head embarrassedly.

"We have to have a celebration party, but if you want to drink, don't go out and have it at home."

It's troublesome to go out for a celebration party. If you can drive, it's fine, but Ju Li can't drive after drinking, so it's better to drive at home. Besides, Ju Li can drink freely at home, even if he gets drunk and goes crazy, it's okay. Anyway, he is not outside, so he can go crazy and do striptease.

Well, let’s forget about taking off clothes. It’s okay if Suzu and Yuzuru are not here, but it will be a big problem if Suzu and Yuzuru are here.

They are just children and cannot bear to see such explosive content.

His words, as well as those of Konata, Nozomi and the others, are worth reading. Even though they are also children, they have climbed the ladder to adulthood. Not only do they read content that children are not allowed to read, they have even done things that children are not allowed to do.

Well, it’s not accurate to say that children can’t do that. In fact, they can do it. After all, the legal age is only 13 years old.

In the future, this age will be changed, but it will only be changed from 13 to 16. I can only say that the laws in some countries are really strange. Adulthood requires 18 or 20, but the age for H does not require adulthood.

Regarding this, Higashino Kanade didn't know whether to be grateful or disgusted. If he was grateful, it was because it was legal for him to push them down, and they were the ones who were illegal. On the other hand, he was disgusted by the fact that underage people could have H.

When you think about it this way, this world is really absurd.

"Let's go."

Suddenly, Higashino Kanade said something out of the blue.

"Hmm? Where to go?"

Hiroi Kikuri looked confused.

"Go buy some food, some wine, some drinks. Nitro, you just stay at home."

Higashino Kanade said as he picked up the phone on the table and sent a message in the group. Worried that the people in the group couldn't see him, he contacted them one by one, asking if Konoha, Nijika, and Ichiri were free, and asked them to come to the studio for dinner. There was no need to ask if Xiaoling and Yuzuru were free. They were both elementary school students and had a holiday today, so they had a lot of free time.

"it is good."

Nishimiya Glass made an OK gesture.

Higashino Kanade originally wanted to pick up Goto Ichiri, but he thought that the total time it would take for Kikuri to drive to Yokohama and then return to Shimokitazawa would far exceed the time it would take for Ichiri to come by train. After a simple math calculation, he gave up the idea of ​​picking up Ichiri and let Ichiri come by himself.

Contact Tsukasa, contact Hongxia, contact Ichiri, and then contact Xiaoling and Yuzuru. He thought about whether to contact Xiaosi and Xiaojing, but after a little thought, he decided not to. He felt that once he invited them to the studio, he would invite them a second time. Since he had invited them a second time, the third, fourth, and fifth time would not be far away.

By then, he was afraid that the devil in his heart would awaken and he would no longer be satisfied with the current harem, but would want to build a big crystal palace and a bronze sparrow tower to take Xiao Si, Xiao Jing, and Miyuki into it.

Forget it. He has to use his heart instead of his body. Cifang's tolerance for him is limited. If he really turns into a humanoid self-propelled artillery, Cifang might sharpen his knife and chop him into a hatchet. Although he can turn into a ghost after death, he hasn't stayed in the beautiful real world enough, and he doesn't want to go down to enjoy the scenery of Huangquan so early.
