Chapter 55 Progress
The latest issue of Jump, "Murder by the Sun" unexpectedly became popular, surpassing "Soul of Chess", Xiaozheng ranked fourth, and "Soul of Chess" fifth.

But Yamamura Morido was not as happy as he imagined. He silently deduced the plot, wanting to come up with more exciting content, and compare it with the future "Soul of Chess".

……

Higashino sat in the classroom, feeling a little upset about getting No.5.

Only looking at the mysterious field of jk outside the window will relieve my mood.

A gust of wind blew downstairs, and the skirt of the beautiful girl under Higashino's sight was blown up. She screamed, like Marilyn Monroe, and made a sexy movement of pressing the skirt.

It's a pity that Higashino can only see the top of her head on the second floor, but nothing else.

"Tsk."

He turned his head away from looking out the window.

In the classroom, Asahina Yuko kept drawing, even during lunch break, she never missed a little free time.

At the suggestion of Tetsuya Endo, she outsourced some of the content to others.

Considering it's a student animation festival, finding professionals who are already working is tantamount to cheating.

So she found a classmate.

And set up an animation team.

Higashino didn't even know how she did it.

How did Asahina, who is not good at speaking and lonely, gather 4 or 5 classmates.

Nishimura, who can't draw manga, also joined the animation team to undertake logistical work.

Higashino poked Xiao Binyi, a classmate in the front row, who turned around in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"I'm just curious," Higashino asked, "Do you have a good relationship with Asahina? Why did you join her animation group?"

"Hey," Xiao Binyi said with a smile, "Asahina is very cute."

Seeing Higashino looking at him contemptuously, he coughed twice, "Of course there is a salary, 5000 yen a day!"

Higashino Hibiki was surprised, "You are not short of money, are you?"

"It's not short of money," Xiao Binyi said contemptuously, "but the joy of earning a salary through work, Dongye, you idle guy, definitely doesn't understand."

With his attitude, Higashino really wanted to beat him up.

Thinking about it later, he was also working for himself, so he chuckled twice and told him to continue working hard.

"I'll ask her about her progress."

Higashino stood up, walked to Yuko Asahina, and quietly watched her paint.

Xiao Binyi covered her face, feeling embarrassed for Hibiki Higashino.

In this state, Asahina-san would not answer anyone's words, and was completely immersed in the painting, forgetting the reality.

This is what he thought, because he was a beautiful girl, so he beautified her motives.

The truth is, Yuko Asahina didn't want to be disturbed while drawing, so she always chose to ignore it.

When Higashino stood beside her, she felt someone was there, and she didn't look up.

"How's the progress?" Higashino asked her.

Hearing it was Higashino Hibiki's voice, Asahina Yuko looked at Higashino Hibiki in surprise, she was about to ask some small details.

"10cuts have been drawn, I want you to take a look."

"Hey - come out! "The number of frames is 12 frames and 8 frames interspersed, and the plot of dumping garbage in the hole is expanded to 24 frames, so there are not many original paintings in 1 cut.

"It's progressing so fast..." Higashino was shocked.

She has just decided on the character setting, the scene setting... The specific animation time is less than 2 days, and she has completed 10cuts.

Higashino took out "Hey—come out!" ", there is a very simple reason for the animation of this sci-fi micro-fiction, there is no protagonist, the background setting is the same as reality, and there are very few scenes.

But I still didn't expect her speed to be so amazing.

Higashino stared at her with a tired expression, so he said with a smile: "Asahina-san, you are such an excellent professional person. You take the initiative to work overtime and pay your salary for the benefit of the company."

During the previous conversation, the copyright of the story was in the hands of Hibiki Higashino.

The bonus profit is split in two, which is still under the strong request of Higashino Hibiki.

"Ha..." Asahina couldn't understand, she was just immersed in the joy of making animations, what's for the benefit?All he could say was, "It's good that Dong Ye-kun is happy."

Looking at the innocent Asahina, Higashino also became concerned, "Outsource to classmates, is Asahina's money enough? Do you need me to pay some?"

"Huh?" Asahina Yuko said inexplicably: "Including tools and losses, it's only about 200 million yen."

She said it lightly and skillfully, Higashino Hibiki was hit hard.

As expected of the eldest lady, she really has abundant funds.

A poor family like him should just take care of himself.

"then I will not bother you."

Asahina Yuko nodded, and continued to paint.

Higashino returned to his seat and saw that Xiao Bingyi couldn't close his mouth in shock, and was also as inexplicable as Asahina Yuko.

What happened to him all of a sudden?
"Why?" Xiao Bingyi looked at Hibiki Higashino quietly, "Asahina-san will talk to you. I joined the animation team and worked hard to draw animation drafts. She won't chat with me except for work."

Higashino Hibiki was speechless, licking the dog is really awesome.

Seeing Nishimura wasting his lunch break and walking towards Asahina Yuko with the manuscript with a smile on his face, he shook his head and stopped talking to Xiao Bingyi.

After returning home from school in the afternoon, Asahina Yuko went to the animation group activity room. Higashino noticed that Nishimura followed him, and quickly stopped him.

"Are you not participating in the activities of the Go club?"

"Not for now," Nishimura shook his head like a rattle.

Higashino Hibiki asked in surprise, "Why?"

Last month, I saw him tearfully moved. After more than a month, are you tired of it?
"The latest chapter "Soul of Chess" is a bit boring," he said, "so I don't have any desire to play Go for the time being."

Higashino Hibiki, "...you are really fickle."

He waved his hand, watched Yuko Hina go away, and hurriedly followed.

……

In "Yoshihara-so", Higashino and Akira Yamazaki sat face to face on the floor.

"After the explanation of the Go game is over today," she said excitedly, "A project team invited me to participate in the popular science program of Go!"

Higashino nodded, it was his suggestion.

Although Akira Yamazaki's appearance is very ordinary, Higashino also realizes that he is a very interesting person in his daily relationship.

Can drive the emotions of the audience, cheerful and generous, lively and active, without stage fright, without airs.

It perfectly matches the needs of the "Soul of Chess" small classroom.

And he had a faint feeling that asking Akira Yamazaki to act as the host might have unexpected effects.

"Hey hey hey, sure enough I'm very famous, so you found me directly," she said with a happy smile, "Remember to watch my sister's wonderful performance."

"Then congratulations," Higashino smiled. He searched around and finally found it. "This is a gift for you. Thank you for your selfless help for so long."
