Chapter 126 "Spirit of Chess" Finished

After bidding farewell to the female college student Kuraki Riko, Higashino punched in the attractions she introduced one by one.

But the main ones are Enoden and Kamakura High School, as well as the basketball gym in Kamakura High School.

After a busy day and walking more than ten miles with Akemi Akimiya, Higashino, exhausted both physically and mentally, actually vented a lot of depression.

He didn't get angry even when he heard the kid passing by complain that "Slam Dunk" was not interesting.

As dusk approached, they found a hotel to stay and returned to Musashino Art University the next day.

……

Since the serialization of "Slam Dunk", more than two months have passed, and the performance of the work has been tepid. Kazuhiko Torishima, who has paid a heavy price, is under great pressure.

The doubts from the upper level and the incomprehension from the lower level made him uncomfortable being caught in the middle.

But even so, he did not urge Higashino Hibiki to give Higashino Hibiki more strength.

Choose to take all the pressure off.

Up to now, "eva" has only the last two episodes left, and they are almost over. The plot of "Slam Dunk" finally reached the friendly match between Xiangbei and Lingnan.

This is already the result of Higashino's cuts without damaging the plot and rhythm.

Otherwise, Yingmu Huadao is still practicing the basics at the Xiangbei Basketball Stadium.

……

The Lingnan High School basketball team mainly has two main players. The captain Yu Zhujun who plays the center has the same positioning as Akagi Takenori.

However, in previous games, his performance was not as good as Akagi.

There is also one named Xiandao Zhang, who is handsome, has a sunny smile, and a calm personality. He is the core of the team.

His athletic ability is very strong, and he beat Rukawa Feng who has poor physical strength.

And he is the most comprehensive and strongest player among the players playing at this stage.

Tian Gangmao of the Lingnan basketball team respected Anxi coach very much, and saluted and said hello to Anxi coach immediately.

The friendly match officially begins.

Coach Anzai did not let Sakuragi end, and used the excuse of a secret weapon to appease Sakuragi.

Under Xiandao's strong oppressive force, Xiangbei fell into a disadvantage at the beginning of the game, and Lingnan continued to score goals.

The manga ends with the unsightly score of 0:15 between Xiangbei basketball team and Lingnan basketball team.

……

This is just a very ordinary plot, the basketball game has not yet officially started, Sasaki informed Higashino on Friday that Xiaozheng's grades were unexpectedly high, and he was actually No.5.

It has been almost two months since Higashino got such a good result, and he was very surprised in his heart. The plot obviously has no advantages.

"It's a basketball game," Sasaki looked at the report and explained, "Among the reader surveys received, many of the readers who voted for "Slam Dunk" hoped that the content of the basketball game could be added. That is to say, Akino Tori Jun, your painters and storyboards have been recognized by readers."

Higashino put in a lot of effort to draw "Slam Dunk" well.

I have been watching the NBA since December, drawing the movements and muscle lines of NBA players, changing a more suitable style of painting, and learning the tense and hasty game storyboards, and now it is finally effective.

"The friendly match with Lingnan was the turning point of "Slam Dunk"!" Said Sasaki.

He sees the future.

Higashino's blood was also unavoidably excited, and he decided to burn it.

After hanging up the phone, Higashino took the manuscript drawn by Oda and checked it carefully, then frowned.

"Why is there a giant panda here?"

In the auditorium, Higashino saw a giant panda watching the off-field competition with students from Lingnan High School.

"Master, didn't you say that the background with a lot of people should be exaggerated? This is my exaggeration," Oda plausibly said, "If it is a giant panda, it will definitely not be considered by readers to be similar, and it is very distinctive!"

He held his head up and smiled triumphantly, obviously on purpose.

To his surprise, Higashino stroked his chin and said, "There is really no problem, there is no need to change it."

It’s okay to occasionally have one or two weird points in the background of comics, but it will be regarded as easter eggs by readers.

After all, it will not affect the plot, and it will be more interesting.

This statement made Oda's eyes brighten. He originally wanted to retaliate against Higashi Higashi for not using the material he shot, but he didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest.

Drawing this kind of content is very interesting. Oda decided to draw occasionally, which can be regarded as the imprint left by himself when he was an assistant for "Slam Dunk".

Because this day is Friday, after the draft of the latest chapter is finished, Akino Tori's studio gets off work early.

Higashino was about to take a break and watch the recorded "eva", but received a call from Endo Tetsuya.

"The second season of "Soul of Chess" is coming to an end, we are going to hold a party, please come and join us."

Higashino actually wanted to refuse, but when he thought that he hadn't thanked the staff for more than a year in the animation serialization of "Soul of Chess", he agreed.

"That's really great!" Endo Tetsuya's tone was very pleasant, "Miss Asahina will also be there, I will drive to pick you up."

Higashino declined his pick-up. After all, he is the protagonist, and if he is not at the banquet, the animation staff present will be very embarrassed.

After asking about the address, he first knocked on the door of Akemi Akimiya's dormitory, and informed her that he was going out to socialize.

Akimi waved her hand, pretending not to care, and finally stopped Higashino.

"Drink less alcohol."

"Of course, I don't like to drink that stuff."

……

Not long after waiting at the gate, Asahina arrived.

She was wearing a white dress, with a Polaroid hanging on her chest, her face was tender and tender, like a doll.

From the second year of high school to the second year of high school, Asahina's height has not increased much, still about 1 meters, wearing thick clothes, walking over with a sway, not caring about the image at all.

"Tono-kun."

"Asahina-san."

They greeted each other, Higashino waved his hand to the big tree in the distance, and Akemi Akimiya ran away shyly.

It turned out that she had been secretly watching.

"What's the matter? Higashino-kun." Asahina was curious.

"It's okay," Higashino replied with a smile, "I saw a little rabbit, but it has already escaped."

Asahina put down the camera in frustration, "That's a pity."

Higashino asked: "Are you going to take pictures at the banquet?"

"It's for material," Asahina replied, "This kind of scene is rare."

"That's it."

Asahina was more serious than him.

The two of them walked side by side towards the side of the road. Higashino waved and wanted to stop the taxi, but it was a pity that there were already customers.

"The meeting place is near the NHK Broadcasting Center in Shibuya District. Supervisor Tetsuya Endo said that there is a delicious restaurant there. The address has already been told to me."

Higashino introduced the situation to Asahina, worried that she had no idea.

"Yeah." Asahina nodded, "I really feel at ease when I'm with Higashino-kun."

She waved her hand, and a taxi pulled up.

"Blue Sky Voice Actor Office in Shinjuku City." After telling the driver the location, she explained to Hibiki Higashino, "I want to pick up a friend and attend a banquet. It's an 18-year-old female voice actor."

Higashino didn't mind. Speaking of 18 years old, he thought of his sister Mei.

Her high school grades were not satisfactory, so she didn't take the college entrance examination, and she was busy looking for a job recently, and she didn't ask Higashino for help.

"An 18-year-old girl... is really stubborn." Looking at the scenery passing by outside the window, Higashino sighed helplessly.

　The cultivators in the Tivat Continent practice Taoism and longevity, ride the sword and ride the wind, act chivalrously, and defend the way. What kind of brilliance will traditional comprehension bloom in this strange continent with the aura and blessed land that have been touched?In short, this is a story of a cultivator in the Tivat continent in the Dharma-ending era.

　　The original gods.
