Chapter 310 "Red Pepper" Ended

Standing at the door of the class, Xia Nai was still looking at Jump.

After 10 minutes of morning reading, she was still immersed in the comics and did not come out.

The teacher was in class as usual, forgetting that there was one person missing in the classroom.

The students were listening carefully. Keiko was thinking about the content of "Paprika". This sentence was the core of "Paprika" and she was immersed in it for a long time.

"Teacher Oda is great!" Xia Nai, who was standing at the door, cheered in a low voice.

The "Sky Island Chapter" of "One Piece" is really interesting. It is Oda's most imaginative chapter. The Golden Merli rushes to the sky island in the sky through the updraft of the large whirlpool on the sea floor, just like a fairy tale.

Unfortunately, the conversation ended quickly. She swallowed and looked forward to the next week.

"Naruto" is still exciting, and the showdown between genin is beyond readers' imagination, especially the match between Gaara and Rock Lee, which is simply to another level.

"Kakashi is nothing more than that." Xia Nai couldn't help but think.

"These two are simply the strongest genin."

"This game is so interesting, more interesting than "One Piece"!"

Masashi Kishimoto's battle scenes are getting better and better, making people nervous and exciting and reluctant to put them down.

"pity……"

The thought of Orochimaru's influence on this game made Shana feel as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

She hoped that Naruto would get No. 1 and gain honors, and that the top team could counterattack.

Now it seems that this possibility is getting smaller and smaller.

"Alas." She sighed, and watched "The Prince of Tennis" in the corridor of the teaching building as if there was no one else around.

In the classroom, the teacher is teaching eloquently.

Keiko felt a little strange. She thought about it carefully, but there was nothing different from usual.

After watching "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Sea of ​​Stone", "Prince of Tennis", "Blind Football", and "Oolong Police Station", she started watching "The Biography of the Leader of the Century".

The comic made her laugh as usual.

"Shimabukuro Lightyear is such a genius."

Since "The Biography of the Leader of the End of the Century", she has gradually stopped watching it.

"Forget it, let me watch Paprika."

She hasn't watched Paprika since the first time.

The inexplicable plot forced her to retreat.

Now starting from the middle, it is definitely not understandable.

"I just took one look and let it go." She thought.

……

The Pink River police shot Koyamauchi in a dream, Koyamauchi died, and the dream began to invade reality.

On the rooftop, middle-aged men in suits cheered.

"The show has begun!"

Starting from him, all the office workers committed suicide by jumping off the building with a smile on their faces.

"Ah?" Xia Nai's eyes widened, "Why did you commit suicide?"

The parade in the dream appeared on the real street, still noisy with gongs and drums, and full of excitement.

People looked on excitedly, and some took out their cell phones to take pictures.

Several men transformed into guitars, basses, keyboards and drums and joined the team.

Housewives were transformed into golden lucky cats and lucky Buddha statues.

The faces of the female high school students turned into selfies on the mobile phone screen. They lifted up their skirts, and another group of wretched middle-aged men turned into mobile phones to take pictures of the skirts of the female high school students.

Someone turned into a house.

The congressmen who used to give speeches to win votes have become Dharma to pray for good things to happen.

More politicians who are desperately vying for high positions in the political system are also frantically climbing towards the parade throne.

……

"This...what are these?" Xia Nai was dumbfounded.

She seemed to have witnessed a carnival. There were many things ready to come out, but she couldn't understand them.

In her mind, employees jumped to their deaths and people turned into different things, chaotic, lively, and pointed.

Dreams and reality blend together and seem to be a mess, but in reality?
Maybe it’s people showing their true selves.

The hidden true side.

"I can't understand..." Xia Nai muttered.

Not only this scene, but also the subsequent confession of Chiba Atsuko to Tokida Kosaku.

She admitted that she likes Tokita, "He is fat, slow, and slovenly. Although people are not judged by their appearance, there is a limit. He is a glutton like a rice bucket, but he is actually the genius of the century."

"You're...you're hopelessly funny."

An iceberg beauty's confession to a fat and fat housewife.

"Chiba, whom both Fenikawa and Koyamauchi like, actually likes Tokita," Xia Nai shook her head, "It's incredible."

The difference between these two people is so big, it's like reality and dream are on opposite ends.

The chairman is the big villain, he dominates the dream world, Red Hot Chili Pepper, Atsuko Chiba merged, and Tokita saved everything.

In the end, Chiba Atsuko and Tokita got together, and the Fenikawa police also reconciled with themselves.

She actually finished reading the 30-page short comic just like that.

"I seem to have seen everything, but nothing..."

"No, it's so interesting!"

Shana blinked excitedly.

The scenes in "Paprika" are not found in other comics. There are many elements overlapping in the bizarre comics, which has a strong visual impact.

The campus bell rang.

Xia Nai looked up and sighed, "It's time to go to class."

She turned and walked into the classroom.But I heard the teacher say: "get out of class is over."

"Hey!" Xia Nai exclaimed.

Keiko later realized that she always felt that something was missing. It turned out that it was not Shana around to bother her.

……

After Xia Nai returned home, she was completely absent-minded.

She had no appetite for the delicious food her sister cooked, so she took a few bites.

When her sister snatched her dessert pudding, she just let it go.

The naughty and mischievous child in the past has now become an artistic girl.

"What's wrong? Xia Nai." My sister touched her forehead and compared the temperature with her own forehead. "I don't have a fever."

"I was just thinking," Shana said, "What on earth is Tori Akino-sensei talking about?"

"Teacher Tori Akino?" My sister was puzzled, "Is there a teacher named Tori Akino in our school?"

Xia Nai ignored her, "What are those pictures saying? It feels very meaningful."

……

By the Arakawa River, Higashino Ichiro was fishing.

His homeless fishing friend, Mr. Yoshino, did not focus on the fishing rod this time, but kept looking at the jump with his jump.

From time to time, he would sigh meaningfully, "Nothing has changed in all these years." "What?" Ichiro Higashino pulled up the fishing rod, but there was nothing on the hook. He baited again and threw it out, "You too Do you like watching jump?"

"Because it's very interesting," Mr. Yoshino said. He closed the jump with a complicated expression. "Your child is really amazing. He can draw such a work."

"That's not natural." Higashino Ichiro said matter-of-factly, "Are you reading Hibiki's manga?"

"Yeah." Yoshida nodded, "It's a comic called "Red Hot Chili Peppers". The content is really spicy."

Higashino Ichiro paused, "Ha."

He didn't see it and didn't understand it.

Yoshida looked far away and returned to the past.

"People's eyes are on the house and they have become house slaves."

“After the economic bubble collapsed, many office workers couldn’t bear the pressure and committed suicide by jumping off the building.”

“The house has become worthless, and a lifetime of struggle is not worth mentioning.”

"This happened after the 90s. I didn't expect that I could still feel it in comics."

He used to be a very hard-working person, but he forgot about enjoyment and only focused on making money!
As a result, there was an economic crisis, and all the life I had sacrificed was replaced by ridiculous things.

Yoshino therefore looked away and began to enjoy life and spend time on himself.

When he saw "Red Hot Chili Peppers", he thought of his old self again and couldn't help but have mixed feelings.

"It was really difficult during that time." Ichiro Higashino nodded in agreement. He could hardly provide for his two children to study.

I could only save some money, so my wife at home started working as a part-time worker.

Finally got through those difficult years.

Higashino Ichiro asked: "Did Hibiki draw these contents?"

""The Detective" is a work in the 90s. It satirized all aspects of Japanese society at that time." Yoshino replied, "The adaptation of "The Detective" in "Paprika" naturally drew these contents."

Ichiro Higashino, "Adapted from a work in the 90s? Isn't it better now?"

Yoshino looked at him speechlessly, "The content in "Paprika" is still satirical, so what do you think?"

Higashino Ichiro's son became famous and rich, and he didn't have to worry about life, so he became insensitive.

"In 2002, the content of "Inception" is still applicable. "Paprika" reveals the unbearable reality of Japan under the naked painting."

……

"The parade in the dream is full of things that people have abandoned. When they come to reality and are infected by them, the things that people hide are also revealed."

“Housewives who worry about daily necessities become lucky cats because all they have left in their hearts is money.”

"Female high school students sell their bodies to get money, without caring about self-respect."

On Wednesday, in the classroom and class meeting, Keiko told her thoughts after reading the book. She blushed when she said this, and she remembered the way the female high school student lifted up her skirt and let the middle-aged man take a picture in "Paprika."

"Politicians only talk rhetoric for votes, but in essence they are like Bodhidharma, incapable of realizing the people's wishes. They promised voters for the election, but failed to fulfill their promises. Japan's economy is still sluggish."

"They do whatever it takes to get to the top just for themselves."

"This is a variety of social realities. In reality, topics that people deliberately avoid, or behaviors that bury their ugly hearts, are all truly reflected in dreams."

Keiko said, "'Paprika' shows people's hidden desires and satirizes the chaos of today's society."

She finished her speech and sat down.

The classroom burst into applause.

Someone pulled up her skirt. Keiko looked over and saw Shana with gleaming eyes.

"Keiko, what you said is so good!"

"Eh? Xia Nai, are you listening?" Keiko was surprised. Xia Nai always deserted in the past.

"Yeah!" Xia Nai nodded, "Because I'm curious!"

It was her turn next. Xia Nai stood up and talked about her thoughts after reading from another angle.

"Chiba Atsuko and Tokita Kosaku are very different, one is slender and the other is bloated. Chiba Atsuko also struggled, and thus the unscrupulous Red Hot Chili Peppers were born."

"But in the end, the two of them got together. Chiba Atsuko did not choose the handsome Koyamauchi, but Tokita. This shows that you can't just focus on appearance, the beauty of the heart and soul is the most important."

"People who have forgotten their musical dreams are transformed into various musical instruments in the parade."

"Officer Fenchuan put down his obsession and watched the movie."

"Tori Akino-sensei is saying that we should chase our dreams. Peel off the shell of cold reality and show your true self."

When she finished speaking, there was silence in the classroom.

Xia Nai was very nervous. This was the first time she had worked so hard to complete her homework after being infected by "Red Hot Chili Peppers".

The so-called is also particularly important.

"Oh! That's very well said."

"Is this Nan?"

There was warm applause in the classroom.

The teacher was also full of relief, "Yes, you did a great job."

Xia Nai rubbed the back of his head and said shyly: "I didn't understand Mr. Tori Akino's satire on reality, so I can only summarize other points."

Keiko encouraged her, "I didn't expect this, Shana."

"Thank you."

Nan Xana learned a lot from a comic.

……

Paprika is over.

Many people commented and began to express their opinions.

"I think Tori Akino used a superb technique to describe human beings and use comic-like images to give the audience a sense of novelty. The movements and lens language are quite smooth. They complement the content."

"The manga optimally prepares the top-notch raw materials written by Tsutsui. The images are full of impact and contain various tributes to Tsutsui, allowing the audience to enjoy the ultimate fictional presentation."

"One of the most insightful and interesting comics about the subconscious."

The accolades from the community kept coming.

However, there are also areas where I disagree.

"The plot is not very particular, perhaps because of the over-emphasis on visual presentation, and the climax of the emotional drama comes too suddenly, but overall, the excellent quality of the graphics makes up for the shortcomings in the plot."

“Works that don’t want readers to understand.”

Higashikata resigned to these.

He went on to draw Death Note.

This comic has reached a critical moment, and we must do our best.

Omori looked at Higashino Hibiki, who was as usual, and couldn't help but sigh, "Tori Akino-sensei is really determined. If I were the one who drew "Paprika", my tail would be raised to the sky at this time."

Tanaka nodded in approval, "This is probably Tori Akino-sensei's most glorious moment now. Everyone is talking about him, and it has spread from comics to a larger field, but he is still drawing "Death Note" quietly."

Even though he is afraid of society, he should now be interviewed by reporters and praised by the public.

Rather than being able to maintain a state of mind.

"Teacher, he is so awesome."

Higashikata raised his head and looked at the two assistants who looked at him adoringly.

The content of "Red Hot Chili Peppers" has not changed, but they have changed their impression of "Red Hot Chili Peppers" through social influence.

They thought "Red Hot Chili Peppers" was their shame at the time, but now it's something they're proud of.

"No matter what others say, just be yourself."

This is also the philosophy of life he learned from Toriyama-sensei.
