Chapter Two Sister

Chapter 2 Sister

When Shen Xin returned home, it was almost midnight.

As soon as he opened the door, the lights in the room suddenly turned on.

"Why didn't you sleep?" Shen Xin glanced at the entrance, where a girl in a blue nightgown stood in front of him.

The girl is very handsome, with straight long hair extending to the back, bangs along the slender eyebrows, covering the forehead. The eyes are big, like a pool of clear lake water, which makes people feel calm; under the delicate nose, there is a small cherry mouth, small and cute.

Whenever Shen Xin sees her, she will think of the heroine in "Hyogo", Chitanda Eru.

She was the first girl he met after traveling to this world. Her name was Xi Muzhen, and she was the host's unrelated younger sister.

"No... I'm a little worried. It's so late..." Xi Muzhen brought the meal to the table.

"What can I do? I just participated in a fan exhibition." Shen Xin lowered her head, not looking at the girl who was three years younger than him.

"Well... I found a job in a nearby bookstore. After the exam is over, I can go to work with them. It's all daily." Xi Muzhen said in a low voice.

"Eh? Don't be in such a hurry, right?" Shen Xin looked at Xi Muzhen in surprise.

"The money at home is running out, right? Besides, after Sister Lu moves away, we will have no income." Xi Muzhen said softly.

"Ah?" Shen Xin's chopsticks stopped in mid-air.

From the memory of the host, he knew that there was a girl who used to rent a house here, but for some unknown reason, she suddenly moved away.

"Ahem... It doesn't matter, I have handed over the doujinshi to the editor of "Dreamer". If I'm lucky, I may sign a serialization contract with the magazine." Shen Xin touched her cheek subconsciously.

The girl surnamed Lu slapped him before leaving. As for the reason - the host who was slapped inexplicably also wanted to know.

"Really?" Xi Muzhen was a little suspicious.

"Should it be?" Shen Xin rubbed her nose, not sure in her heart, "Did he leave my name and phone number? Maybe he will ask me for a draft soon."

"But he may perfunctory you." Xi Muzhen said.

"Ah? It shouldn't be possible, right?" Shen Xin recalled the scene at that time, Wang Wenhong's actions were very enthusiastic, it didn't seem like he was lying to him. It’s just a doujinshi, so it shouldn’t be necessary, right?

After eating, Xi Muzhen packed up the tableware and went into the kitchen.

Shen Xin looked at Xi Muzhen's leaving figure, feeling quite emotional in her heart.

The host's sister and her brother are a newly married couple. Because of this relationship, the relationship between the host and Xi Muzhen is pretty good.

A year ago, the host's parents, sister and brother-in-law, Xi Muzhen and his family traveled together, while Shen Xin had no companions because he was going to take an art exam in other places.

On the way back, there was a car accident. Among the seven people in the group, only Xi Muzhen survived - her sister hugged her tightly until she died, so she survived.

As a result, the host and Xi Muzhen became the only survivors of the two families.

The two wanted to take care of each other, so they lived together, but because of the sister's affairs, the host did not let go of Xi Muzhen's heart. Until the host died suddenly due to overwork, the relationship between the two did not improve much.

Shen Xin, who traveled over here, knew these things from the memory of the host, and also knew that the host did not blame Xi Muzhen, and before he traveled, he was an only child. The sudden appearance of his younger sister made him overjoyed.

Therefore, recently, the relationship between the two has improved somewhat. Sometimes, Xi Muzhen would joke with Shen Xin.

Although the relationship between the two is no longer tense, the pressure in life has not eased in the slightest.

Hope "Dreamer" can contact him?

Shen Xin stretched her waist, feeling a little drowsy.

"By the way, Brother Xin." Xi Muzhen came out of the kitchen and called to Shen Xin who was about to go back to the studio.

"Um?"

"The high school entrance examination is about to take place in two weeks, and there will be a period of intensive training at the school. At that time, I may not have time to come back..." Xi Muzhen wiped his hands and hung up his apron.

"Oh, I see." Shen Xin pushed open the door.

"Don't eat instant noodles." Xi Muzhen urged.

Shen Xin seemed to be stepped on by someone's tail, "Tell you, Xi Muzhen, I can cook...the fried rice with eggs I made - can...you can eat it."

Xi Muzhen smiled without saying a word.

...

An office building, an office.

"Morning, Sister Yan, what are you looking at?" A girl wearing a large white T-shirt and a hair bun walked into the office and found a long-haired woman reading a manuscript.

"Xiao Li, didn't I go to a fan exhibition two days ago?" Yan Yan smiled lightly.

"Ah, I know."

"I 'picked up' the treasure." Yan Kun sat up straight with a smile on his face, and when he said the word "picked up", his tone became a lot more serious, because this "baby" was indeed "picked up" by her.

"What baby?"

"Did you see it?" Yan Yu picked up a drawing on the table, "The manuscript."

"Accepting manuscripts at fan fairs? Our magazine doesn't seem to have a booth this year." Xiaoli took Yan Tan's manuscripts, "Eh? Even the cover is black and white? Isn't the binding too bad?"

"Of course the original version is not like this... This is a doujinshi I picked up on the ground. The cover was a bit dirty, so I made another copy of it." Yan Kun explained.

The manuscript was only about 20 pages long, and in less than two minutes, Xiaoli read the manuscript, "Tsk tsk, use the protagonist's kiss to restore the witch's magic power—this kind of story is really bad."

"The story is bad, but you didn't realize it. Did you just finish reading it effortlessly?" Yan Kun reminded.

"That's true."

After being reminded by Yan Fang, Xiaoli suddenly discovered this problem.

"This is what makes this manuscript so good—it's sub-camera is excellent, and the coordination between the large and small frames is also very appropriate. Of course, if you pay too much attention to its plot, you will definitely not be able to read it, but if you calm down and watch it , you will find that its sub-shots are very distinctive, and it is at an excellent level among its peers." Yan Yu said seriously.

"Since it's so powerful, why was it thrown to the ground?" Xiaoli asked puzzled.

Yan Yan shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "I have to ask the editor of Monthly Dreamer. I picked it up in front of their booth. Maybe the editor encountered something unpleasant and made him not in the mood to read it. go down?"

This was the only explanation Yan Yu could think of.

When she picked up the magazine, the cover was really wrinkled, and water should have been sprinkled on it.

In the case of a tiring day, people's emotions will indeed be more irritable, and some things that they usually think are nothing will also change their mentality.

The artist may have become a victim under such circumstances, but to her, this was a good thing.

She accidentally bent down and picked up this fair-quality doujinshi.

"Speaking of "Dreamer", I heard that they also found a newcomer at the fan show, who seems to have drawn r18's book. The editors of "Dreamer" and even their editor-in-chief are very optimistic about him. They have always wanted to prove that I finally found the 'secret weapon' this time." Xiao Li wrinkled her nose.

It was the first time Yan Yu heard about this, but in the final analysis, the circle of Yunhai Comic Magazine is only so big, there are not many secrets to speak of.

She just didn't pay much attention to these things, and she was a little happy when she got the manuscript of "The Witch" recently, and it was inevitable that she would miss this information.

But after thinking about it, Dreamer, as a magazine that has always wanted to make a difference, it is normal to have this kind of change.

She likes to face challenges.

Thinking of this, Yan Yu sat up straight, picked up the microphone of the landline, and dialed the number on the cover of "The Witch".

"Sister Yan, what are you going to do?" Xiaoli asked curiously.

"Talk to the author of this manuscript for a while." Yan Qu narrowed his eyes, with a faint smile on his face.
