Full-time cartoonist

Chapter 79

Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, known as the Crystal Capital, has many gem and jewelry shops.

A 28-year-old girl with fluffy hair and wearing a white down jacket walked out of her jewelry store and sat on tables and chairs outside the store, enjoying the noon sunshine in March.

She puts mint and spices in a teacup, brews it with boiling water, and finally adds milk to satisfy the taste.

This is a drink she likes very much, but unfortunately she is too busy with work, so she rarely has time to be as leisurely as today's noon.Enjoy a cup of afternoon tea.

Put on the sunglasses, glance at the sun, and take out a comic magazine from the bag beside her.

On the cover of this magazine, there are recent portraits of well-known women, which look a bit indecent.

"Hey, Princess Naoko, long time no see." An uncle passed by on a bicycle.

"Okay... Long time no see." She shyly clutched the cover of the manga, worried that she would be seen as reading something indecent.

Fortunately, the uncle didn't care and just said something along the way.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Naoko pouted while looking at "Weekly Young Jump".

She likes reading manga, especially shoujo manga. She often pretended to be sick when she was a child, just to read shoujo manga.

Anyone who comes to juvenile comics is welcome.

Reiji Matsumoto's works are her favourites.

only……

"Obviously there are a lot of good works, why do you play this kind of edge ball..."

He covered his face in distress.

However, she was also attracted by the rubbed-edge cover.

Curious about the contents, I secretly bought a copy. I didn't expect it to be a serious comic, and I felt cheated.

Thanks to this whim, she saw a very interesting love work.

Different from fairy tale works like fluttering princesses, it is very realistic, as if it is a manga about real love.

The people in the works have their own troubles, and not just a word of love can solve their troubles.

It has something in common with her favorite "Tokyo Love Story".

Naoko has always longed for the love of a dreamy princess and prince, but she also likes this kind of work.

""The Garden of Words"..." The red lips parted slightly, "The author is Mirai Tori Akino...a talented manga artist who started serializing at the age of 18."

It's really amazing. A person like Naoko who has a smooth path in comics only has short comics published in magazines at most.

By the time it was serialized, it was already 1989, when I had worked for a while after graduating from university.

""Soul of Chess" is very interesting, but I prefer "The Garden of Words and Leaves"."

Taking another sip of her drink, she looked around carefully, no one cared about her, so she recalled the previous content.

This comic has been serialized to the third chapter.

Between the male and female protagonists, from rigid to acquainted with each other.

Naoko especially likes the scene where the hero and heroine are looking forward to the rain.

When it rains, there is a reason to meet.

It is the kind of anticipation and jumping that will bounce to avoid the water beach.

When they met again, Xiaoxiong and Yukino got closer.

Takao is still drawing shoes, and Yukino will be dragging his high heels halfway, exposing his feet, which is extraordinarily charming, and even a girl like Naoko is tempted.

"The drawing is really good, as expected of a male cartoonist's drawing." Naoko thought so at the time, she looked at her feet, wondering how could the drawing be so attractive?
Afterwards, Xiaoxiong would take a peek, drawing slender feet with the tip of the pen.

This innocent scene made Naoko smile like an aunt again.

Between the two of them, communication and communication began.

Yukino shared his own beer and chocolate, this strange combination made Xiaoxiong very disgusted.When we meet again later, we will bring our own food.

The time in the comics entered the rainy season, and the accelerator key began to be pressed. Xiaoxiong always used the excuse of rain to skip class and came here to meet mysterious and admired people.

The relationship between the two became closer, and Xiaoxiong could tell her his dream.

This morning, Yukino was hesitating whether to take the tram and leave, but finally came to the Garden of Words and Leaves.

She brought her own bento, and she can only say that the taste is very unique, so it is inconvenient to comment on whether the taste is good or not.

At this point, the first two chapters are over.

Now I can finally watch the third chapter.

At the beginning of the manga, it was a troubled story.

Why does Yukino drink beer and eat chocolate all the time?
It turned out that she was sick and her sense of taste was paralyzed, so she could only feel the taste when she ate something with a strong taste.

But recently, she can taste Xiaoxiong's bento.

"It seems to be psychological."

As a pharmacist, Naoko had some experience. She began to wonder, what caused Yukino's sense of taste to be paralyzed?

The content after that seems to be somewhat revealed.

Xue Ye faced some gossip, but her ex-boyfriend chose not to believe her.

So she chose to resign and escape.

The huge psychological pressure made Xue Ye curl up in pain.It wasn't until the sky began to rain again that I became happier.

During this meeting in July, Takao was going to make a pair of shoes for Yukino, which made Naoko's heart pound.

Obviously it was just Xiaoxiong who touched Yukino's foot, but Naoko felt that this scene was lustful.

The kisses and stickers of many girl comics are not as good as this careful touch.

The hearts of the two people are closer, but there is still a gap.In the end, Xue Ye didn't say anything about her own situation.

"I know almost nothing about her, occupation, age, troubles, and even her name. Even so, I am deeply attracted by her and cannot resist."

The rainy season has passed.

Yukino will still go to the Garden of Words, but the Garden of Words on a sunny day is so strange.

If her foundation was accidentally broken, she would break down and cry.

Xiaoxiong didn't go again, he was busy working every day.

Save up tuition fees, buy tools and leather for shoemaking.

He didn't want to be treated as a child, and hoped that Xue Ye could look him up, so he acted extra mature.

On Xue Ye's side, they drank beer and ate chocolate again.

Compared to Xiaoxiong, she is more like a child.Covered by the high pavilion roof, stay in place.

The manga is over.

"There will be! There will be serialization!" Naoko was a little crazy.

It really worries her that the manga stays here, and it ends in a bad way.

"There is faint thunder, and the sky is cloudy, but I hope that the wind and rain will come, so I can keep you here."

The relationship between the two of them is extremely fragile.

Only when the wind and rain come can we get together.

Xue Ye was healed just now, because there was no rain, and she went back to the past.

"I really hope there will be a happy ending," Naoko closed the comic book and sighed slightly.

In her opinion, it was just a 12-year age gap, but in this work, it became the biggest gap.

Yukino's problem, because he didn't regard Xiaoxiong as someone he could confide in, made no more progress.

If Xiaoxiong were of the same age, the two of them would have already become boyfriend and girlfriend.
