Chapter 386 Invincible
"You know Tori Akino-sensei, you are so awesome."

Ever since the Akatsuka Prize was lost, Yamada Eiichi has always been so yin and yang.

Soma Satoru didn't tell him such a big thing, which made him very depressed.

"Yes." Soma Satoru nodded. He stopped writing, scratched his head and said sheepishly, "The male protagonist of "Dream Eater"... I'm afraid he has something to do with me..."

"Ha!" Yamada Eiichi stood up in surprise, and the single copy of "Dragon Ball" in his hand fell to the ground. He gritted his teeth, "You guys are so lucky!"

Tori Akino's manga prototype, this kind of special experience is simply outrageous.

Anyone of the same age will be jealous if they hear it.

"But how are you sure?"

"There are many similarities, such as the uncle who has been on the streets for many years, such as..."

"In the latest plot of "Dream Eater", Mashiro Takashi and Takagi Akito took their debut novel - "Two Earths" and submitted it to Shueisha. The person who met them was our editor, Mr. Hattori Tetsu ah."

……

"Hey, Hattori."

"Yo."

Onishi Tsunehei watched Hattori Tetsu pass by him and turned back in confusion, "Why is Hattori... so happy?"

Hattori Tetsu couldn't wait to jump up, and his mood was boundless.

After greeting his colleagues excitedly, he returned to his work station with the jump in hand.

"call!"

"This is the next issue of "Weekly Shōnen Jump", and it's time for me to officially appear! Ah, appearing as the editor of the male protagonist, Tori Akino-sensei really thinks highly of me, haha."

Even though they had never met each other, they chose an editor based on him to teach the male protagonist. This appreciation made Hattori Tetsu happy and flattered.

Because of this, Yoshida Koji has been jealous of him for a long time.

He is obviously the team leader, but he is jealous of his subordinate.

……

The background of "Two Earths" is that in order to simulate various problems, the real earth people created another false earth. The false earth people are all clones.

The protagonist Hayato exposes this scam and leads the replicants to rebel against their creator.

The struggle was won not long after.

"Huh?" University student Isayama Hajime opened his mouth wide.

"What does this mean? It's so baffling."

It turns out that the real Earthlings, during their observations, concluded that the clones were stupid and barbaric, so they surrendered without firing a shot.

"So that's it." Hajime Isayama nodded, "The protagonist of justice, Hayato, is actually the one who commits violence."

The real heroine ends up falling in love with the fake hero Hayato.

The comic ends with the grand topic of what is "real" and what is "false".

Isayama Souji couldn't calm down for a long time.

"It's so interesting. I also like Mr. Tori Akino's comics. The short few pages make people think deeply."

"I also want to draw comics like "Two Earths"!"

The in-depth "Two Earths" has a complete setting and structure, and it clearly tells a near-future science fiction comic story in just a few pages.

"Two Earths" fascinated Hajime Isayama, but Tetsu Hattori pointed out many shortcomings.

Expressions such as too many narrations are closer to the basic lack of novels.

The pictures look too much like sketches and lack personal style characteristics.

When you look closely, you will find that the character's expression is stiff and lacks detailed description.

This comic is substandard.

"What an amazing editor!"

Isayama began to admire Hattori Tetsu. He went through "Two Earths" according to the problems described by Hattori Tetsu, and found that it was indeed full of shortcomings as Hattori Tetsu said.

“When I submit manuscripts in the future, I will also seek this editor!”

19-year-old Hajime Isayama dreams of becoming a manga artist.

……

Hattori Tetsu couldn't help but giggle as he watched "Hattori Tetsu" pointing the way.

"It really has my style, but my handsome side is not included. Teacher Tori Akino is probably worried that I will take over the show, haha."

When Yoshida Koji saw this, he couldn't help but glare at him.

This happiness should belong to you.

"Ah~ when will the character based on me appear?"

He kept shaking his head.

"And me! Where am I?" Onishi Tsunehei pointed at himself, "Yoshida-kun, please help me ask Mr. Tori Akino to draw me into the manga."

"And me." Aida Soichi raised his right hand high.

"Hattori is really enviable. He has become an important supporting role in "Dream Eaters"."

"When will my heroic side appear in the comics?"

The editors laughed and scolded each other while Sasaki watched the scene.

Deputy Editor-in-Chief Ping Boji could not sit still for a long time and stood up to scold them for working hard.

"It doesn't matter," Sasaki waved his hand, "Bottle, tell me, why do Yoshida and the others want to be drawn in comics?"

The Japanese attach great importance to privacy. Even in the video of the two people fighting, passers-by who accidentally photographed the video will code it one by one.

After male amateurs appear on camera, they must cover their faces when making efforts.

Editors are an industry that pays more attention to privacy. Putting it in comics for readers to discuss is a dangerous thing.

Readers who are dissatisfied with the comics the editor is responsible for may cause chaos.

A bottle of Yoshihisa is also eager to appear in "Dream Eater".

He said with his own thoughts: "Because "Dream Eater" is a manga by Tori Akino-sensei. This manga is foreseeable to be successful. Games, animations, and even movies may all appear. When it comes time to leave "Weekly Shonen Jump" "In the future, everyone can watch "Dream Eater" and recall their past time."

It's a very romantic thing.

"Yes." Sasaki nodded in agreement, "Then let them continue to play. With such a mood, they will definitely work hard. Only the present with a sense of mission is worth recalling in the future."

"I understand." Ping Jijiu nodded.

"Dream Eater" is not doing well right now and is the worst manga among Miku Tori Akino's comics.

At this time, "Soul of Chess" began to rise in popularity, with a classic plot that moved readers.

Under such circumstances, everyone still believes that "Dream Eater" will create miracles.

Sasaki's eyes were dark, this was Tori Akino's trustworthy name in the future.

"bottle."

"Yes, editor-in-chief."

"The first volume of "Naoki Hansawa" has been released?"

"It was released nationwide at 10 o'clock last Sunday. Data from Youth Jump shows that within a week, the sales volume of the single volume of "Naoki Hansawa" was around 30 copies."

"Yes." Sasaki nodded slightly, with uncontrollable surprise in his eyes.

"30 copies a week..."

This is equivalent to two months of sales of popular comics.

Doesn't that mean...

Will "Naoki Hansawa" break the statistics of "Death Note"?

In two months, the sales of the first volume reached 100 million copies...

"It doesn't take two months at all. Maybe one month will be enough."

"Even if he leaves "Weekly Shōnen Jump" and goes to "Weekly Shōnen Jump," Tori Akino will still be able to create miracles in the future."

Sasaki whispered.

……

Xiaori looked down and saw "Hanzawa Naoki" again.

She worked in a comic shop in Electrical Street. It used to be easy, except that there were more otakus buying 18+ banned books.

But this week, she was so busy that she barely had time to eat.

In addition to working as a cashier, I also have to pack this comic book with special bonuses and package new issues during my breaks.

As busy as an assembly line worker.

When you go to work, you have to deal with a never-ending stream of hungry customers.

"400 yen, sorry for the trouble, guest."

"Yes."

After a customer finished, there was still a long queue in front of Xiaori, with dozens of people waiting to check out and leave.They were holding the "Hansawa Naoki" manga, with excitement and anticipation on their faces.

Xiaori usually only sees it on the faces of 18-year-old buyers.

"call."

She exhaled and took a deep breath, ready to work with all her strength.

"400 yen!"

"Yes!"

……

At dusk, today's work is over.

Xiaori's arms are sore.

The easy work turned into a mechanical movement with no rest, and her little arms could no longer carry it.

"It's finally time to get off work."

"What are you doing here?" The store manager patted her and said, "Hurry up and eat."

"Here comes."

This comic shop closes at [-] p.m. In order to reward the hard-working employees, the store manager specially applied for a subsidy.

Xiaori swung her legs and wandered to the lounge.

"Oh! Today's dinner is Chinese cuisine! There are fried pork liver with leeks and mapo noodles! They are all my favorites!"

Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the staff meal.

Chinese people may not be used to it, but Japanese people really like these dishes.

She ate it happily.

"Is it okay today?" Colleague Xiong Hai asked her, "Can you sustain it?"

"It's okay!" Xiaori clenched her fists, "Ah, it hurts..."

Her muscles ached.

"Don't hold on," Xiong Hai handed her a medicine, "Remember to apply it when you get home."

"Well, thank you," Xiaori nodded, and she asked curiously, "By the way, Mr. Xionghai."

"Is "Naoki Hansawa" really that good-looking?"

Many of today's customers are mature men over 20 years old. They are passionate about comics and find it strange no matter how they look at them.

"Huh? Haven't you seen it, Xiaori?" Xionghai looked at her in surprise, "It's very beautiful!"

"You take it."

He took out a single volume of "Naoki Hansawa" and said, "Please read it carefully."

It was one of the copies he had purchased in advance and was now suitable for use in preaching.

……

"You must see it! Don't forget it!"

"I see!"

As the sky darkened, Xionghai sent Xiaori home. Before leaving, he loudly talked about "Hanze Naoki" again, and left with satisfaction after hearing the response.

After saying goodbye to Xionghai, Xiaori returned home, looked at the empty room and sighed, "This is the end of the day."

She studied logistics management at a junior college, but no company wanted her.Xiaori is very thin and looks like a child even as an adult, so there seems to be no room for exploitation.

"It's really hard to find a job."

After hitting the wall many times, she finally gave up.I worked as a full-time cashier at a comic store near my home, earning about 28 yen a month.

She slumped on the sofa and didn't move for a long time.

The brain is completely empty, don't think about anything, and enjoy the quiet moment of your own time.

until 10 minutes later...

"Ah, that's right! "Naoki Hansawa"!"

She quickly got up and picked up the comic with the unruly male protagonist on the cover.

"What kind of comic is it? It fascinates everyone so much..."

With curiosity, she looked at it.

……

“Borrow an umbrella when it’s sunny and take it away when it rains.”

"The value of a person cannot be measured by money... What bank employees should focus on is not money, but people."

"The credit of the subordinates goes to the superiors, and the subordinates take responsibility for the mistakes of the superiors!"

These lines shocked Xiaori. It turns out there are such comics.

When his boss shirks his responsibilities, Naoki Hansawa does not feel internally conflicted, but instead fights fiercely.

He is so persevering and brave, uncompromising in the face of danger, and "repays tooth for tooth, doubles the amount".

In the face of positive and weak enterprises, Naoki Hansawa, a banker, will lend a helping hand and complete the mission perfectly.

"It's really admirable..."

Looking at the end of the comic, Hansawa Naoki encountered a crisis. The enemies led by Ogiso used the pretext of visiting the store to attack Hansawa Naoki, and Xiaohi was worried.

She didn't expect that she would fall in love with a workplace comic like never before.

At night, Xiaori tossed and turned, unable to sleep, staring at the dark ceiling with her eyes open.

"How did Naoki Hansawa deal with Ogiso? What's the plot behind it? I really want to know..."

She is no longer worried about her busy work in the future. She is so disturbed by the plot of "Hanzawa Naoki" that she can't sleep peacefully.

"Xionghai-kun said that the single volume of the "Hansawa Naoki" manga only contains 8 episodes, and the manga has been serialized to 14 episodes. In other words, I can read 6 more episodes in one go!"

Thinking of this little day, he got up, picked up his cell phone, and called Xiong Hai.

When Xiaori was anxious.

"What's wrong! Xiaori!"

Xiong Hai answered the phone, his voice was very nervous, "Did something happen? Do you need me to call 110? Speak quickly!"

"It's okay," Xiaori said doubtfully, "Xionghai-kun is so weird, so excited."

"That's good..." Xionghai breathed a sigh of relief, "You called me at 2 o'clock in the morning, how could I not be worried?"

"Ah, it's 2 o'clock! Sorry, sorry, I didn't notice! I'll hang up right now."

"Wait……"

Before Xiong Hai finished speaking, a blind tone came from the phone.

"What's going on..."

He looked at the ceiling and couldn't sleep.

"I can only trouble Mr. Xionghai the next day."

Xiaori fell asleep.

The next day, she saw Xiong Hai with heavy dark circles under his eyes.

"What's wrong? Mr. Xionghai, didn't you take a good rest?" she asked in surprise.

It's just a phone call. It shouldn't affect your sleep, right?

Xiong Hai glanced at her resentfully, "I'm wearing panda makeup. It's very fashionable recently."

"Xiong Haijun is so strange."

"I..." Xionghai swallowed his anger, "Why are you calling?"

"I want to know the content behind "Hanzawa Naoki"..." Xiaori poked her finger and said shyly.

"It's just this," Xiong Hai was disappointed, "You should read this first."

He handed Xiaori a copy of "Weekly Youth Jump".

"This is the latest issue of the comic magazine."

He hasn't seen it yet.

　There are intact eggs under the overturned nest, but the trees on the left and right are just scattered by the fallen hozens.

　　Looking at a bunch of bad things, Jia She, who traveled back in time from later generations, said that he would quit and draw a clear line with Rong Guofu. From now on, you are you and I am me.

　　This is the First Class General's Mansion!

　　Jia Zheng: Brother, one family speaks the language of two families.

　　Jia Mu: Unfilial, extremely unfilial. He won’t care about this family even before I die.

　　Jia Min: Learn more from your uncle!
