Chapter 170 Going on vacation to finish the 8th episode?
After confirming that the problem had been identified, Oda Shingo began to rearrange the manuscript.
He didn't notice that Mrs. Yukino never responded to his thank-you message.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Oda Shingo's cell phone suddenly rang.
"I knew you weren't asleep yet." Mrs. Yukino chuckled on the phone, "I called you for two reasons. First, I wanted to hear what the problem is? After all, I didn't see it either."
"It is the protagonist Izumi Shinichi. He should not have killed his mother's body, even if it was already the remains of a parasitic beast. This is not a matter of reason and courage, but a matter of human nature..." Oda Shingo explained the plot context. Tell Mrs. Yukino.
"..." After hearing this, Mrs. Yukino was silent for a while, and then she suddenly responded: "You are right, I did not pay attention to how human nature should be."
Oda Shingo felt that her statement was a bit strange, like Tamiya Ryoko's judgment of human beings from the perspective of other creatures.
"Huh? You said call me, what's the other one?"
Mrs. Yukino's voice on the phone suddenly became softer: "Not just one or two, but three reasons."
"Um?"
"The second reason is to tell you that after you have figured out the plot problem, you should go to bed quickly and don't go to bed too late."
"Okay, you're right." Oda Shingo remembered that he died suddenly in his previous life, so he had better go to bed early to save his life.
"Well, then the third reason...can you guess?"
"..." Oda Shingo was speechless for a moment.
I'm afraid that women will ask riddles like this. Who has time to worry about guessing your thoughts? It's like trying to find the end of pi.
"Okay, I'm teasing you, I won't let you guess. I just think that teasing you like this is in line with the human nature you just said?"
"This has nothing to do with human nature, right?"
"A woman's little temper, human nature."
"..." Oda Shingo rolled his eyes this time.
Landlady, I thought you were a serious person, but I didn’t expect you to play word games. Why don't you say you took it apart and understood it? That would make me feel excited.
"Well, the third reason for calling you is actually more important to me than the other two..."
Mrs. Yukino seemed to be telling the truth, and her tone became slower.
"I just want to confirm, Oda-kun, you..."
Oda Shingo: "?"
Another burst of pleasant laughter came from the phone: "I originally thought that maybe you wouldn't have time to answer the phone. Now, it seems to be pretty good."
After saying this, she hung up the phone.
Oda Shingo looked at his phone and tilted his head to think for a while.
Then I looked at the time and went to wash up and go to bed.
Ten past ten, the first time I went to bed so early.
Early the next morning, at only six o'clock, Oda Shingo got up.
"Huh? It does feel good to go to bed early and get up early?" He felt that following Mrs. Yukino's reminder would be good for his health.
You will have better physical and mental strength to work, and you must stick to this habit.
He began to work hard again.
Namikaze Yukuru also got up early. It's just that you can see a little fatigue from the circles around your eyes, as if you didn't get enough rest last night.
She got up when she heard Oda Shingo went downstairs.
At around ten o'clock, Todo Xiangcheng came downstairs.
She quietly approached Oda Shingo, leaned down and whispered in her ear: "Teacher Oda, didn't you make up your mind last night? You can think about it again tonight..."
Oda Shingo rolled his eyes: "Go, go, go, you are only a child, what are you thinking about?"
"Who is a child!" Todo Xiangcheng shook his hair dissatisfied.
Of course, the focus is not on the hair, but on the associated trembling sensation in the upper body with this movement. "Do I need to advance my salary to buy underwear?" Oda Shingo asked with a face.
"Disgusting!" Todo Koucho knocked his fist on Oda Shingo's back.
Next, Oda Shingo revised the plot.
After fully realizing the wonderful writing of Mr. Yan Mingjun, he no longer easily tinkered with the plot.
When encountering parts that were obviously dragging the plot, I gave them full consideration before changing them.
In this way, the speed of painting has more than doubled.
Because he acts as a copy machine most of the time, it is definitely much faster than polishing the entire story.
"Have you realized it?" Mrs. Yukino looked at the storyboard manuscripts that had begun to pile up in surprise.
Not to mention the speed with which Yukaku Namikaze painted mainly female characters, even Toudo Kazuo who painted the background couldn't keep up with him.
"I want to become an immortal and have boundless magical power." Oda Shingo declared emphatically.
Mrs. Yukino snorted: "You can get the ranking first and then talk about it later."
I bought thousands of tickets last time but didn't reach the top. I'm embarrassed to mention it. Now I'm pretending to be a Chinese god.
It’s just that Mrs. Yukino sometimes puts down the review manuscript in her hands and turns to look at Oda Shingo sitting at his desk.
If you look at it occasionally, you will look at it for a long time.
As for Namikaze Yukaku and Todo Kojo, they had no time to pay attention to these details. They were already drowned in the ocean of manuscripts.
Although Namikaze Youkaku didn't say anything, his face showed fatigue.
Toudo Xiangcheng moved her sore arms and was the first to protest: "Teacher Oda, I'm already dying! You are asking for too much, and our body can't bear it!"
"Don't talk nonsense, it's too easy to make people think wrong." Oda Shingo muttered. After looking at the situation of four chapters after finishing the manuscript, he confidently said loudly: "Complete six chapters ahead of schedule and free up three weeks. If so, I can give you a holiday."
"Holiday? No, I want a vacation!" Todo Kouchi shouted, "From my manga notes, many cartoonists will take their assistants out for a vacation. Mr. Oda, you should treat us like this too!"
"Holiday?" As a black-hearted capitalist, Oda Shingo felt it was a waste of time.
But he noticed that after hearing the word vacation, Yukaku Namikaze turned his head from the table in a rare move.
Her eyes were glowing.
Now Oda Shingo felt a little embarrassed to refuse.
Namikaze Yukaku has always been an honest kid who works hard without complaining. It is rare to show such interest. Do you have the nerve to refuse?
"Okay! If you finish six chapters in advance, you can go on vacation! I'll cover all the expenses!" Oda Shingo nodded.
"Long live!" Todo Xiangcheng raised his arms and cheered.
Of course, some parts of the body are also jumping happily together.
Namikaze Youkaku also clenched his fists excitedly.
But Mrs. Yukino was standing next to her and said: "Wait a minute, tomorrow is the new submission date. If it is completed in advance, doesn't it mean there will be 8 chapters?"
After saying that, she looked at Oda Shingo playfully: "Are you deliberately not letting them take a vacation?"
"If you can't do this, there will be no vacation." Oda Shingo secretly said happily.
Then he was strangled by Todo Xiangcheng from behind...
While Oda Shingo was struggling painfully, he was still thinking in his mind: Is this the punishment of hanging around the neck, or the punishment of hitting the back with a meat pad?
The new publication date has arrived.
“The day has finally come for the release of ‘Jump’!”
"Wahahahaha! I want to see the parasitic beast bleed into a river!"
"The parasitic beast that killed mom must be chopped into pieces by the protagonist!"
Comic fans are excitedly gearing up to watch the protagonist slash and kill his mother's enemy, the parasitic beast.
