Chapter 684: What Do You Get for Buying Illustrations?

Tokyo, Akihabara District, XX Cafe.

"Shiba..." Machida Enko looked at the somewhat naive and natural Shiina Mashiro and her eyelids twitched, then she picked up the contract she carried with her, blocked Mashiro aside, and said to Kasumigaoka Shiwa: "Are you sure about this? The child is the internationally famous talented beautiful girl painter, Mashiro Shiina?"

"Isn't it the same?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu said in confusion. Ahem, if she hadn't seen Mashiro's paintings, she would have found it hard to believe that this natural black girl with a voice almost identical to hers could become an internationally renowned artist. , known as an existence that takes only one thousand years to come out.

"..." When Machida Enzi heard this, she could only look at the girl who was chewing the Baumkuchen in front of her again. It seemed that nothing except the Baumkuchen could attract her attention. She was silent for a long time, and then she held her head and said: "Poetry Yu, do you know what it feels like to be disillusioned?”

"Maybe you are just like Yuanzi now?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu tilted her head and said.

"..." Machida Enzi twitched the corner of her mouth, she was right!

"Shiyu, are you sure this child can draw the effect you want? Although she is quite famous in the art world, illustration and oil painting..." After all, they are two different methods of artistic expression!

Before Machida Enzi could finish her words, Kasumigaoka Shiu turned to the natural black man next to her and said: "Mashiro, show the original illustration you drew to editor Enzi..."

"Huh?" Mashiro, who was eating Baumkuchen, was stunned: "Shiyu, the editor is Ayano, not Yuanzi..."

Machida Enzi: "..."

ヾ（ゞ）

Who is that Ayano? ?

Shi, Shi Yu won’t betray her, right? She hadn't contacted her for a while, so did Shiyu find someone else?

"Mashiro, Ayano is your manga editor, and Yuanzi is my novel and your illustration..." Thanks to Sougo Toma for helping Kasumigaoka Shiwa mention Shiina Mashiro's interpersonal relationship, otherwise, she would also be confused. At this moment , Kasumigaoka seems to understand somewhat what Sougo was thinking when he first came into contact with Mashiro...

Mashiro Shiina wearing a BOSS panel is actually very safe! Kasumigaoka Shiu thinks so. After all, Mashiro's lack of common sense is almost as good as her talent in painting, and both are things that only happen once in a thousand years...

Just when Kasumigaoka explained to Mashiro the difference between manga editing and illustration editing, Machida Enko only heard the word manga:

"Shiyu, Shiyu..."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu was stunned: "Huh?"

"It has been reported in the news that Mr. Shiina is preparing to debut as a manga artist. Isn't this true?" Machida Enko whispered. When she saw the news, she always thought that the other party was bragging, like Mashiro. If a character wants to make his debut as a cartoonist, will he go to those small publishing houses?

The Immortal River Library where she is located is the No. 1 in the country. In addition, there is a vague rumor throughout the publishing house that their library is backed by a top chaebol and is extremely powerful. Teacher Shiina wants to make a comic debut, so she is the first choice. It should be their publishing house. After all, apart from the small black room, there is really nothing worthy of criticism in the Immortal River...

"Mashiro's current goal is indeed to debut as a manga artist..." While Machida Enko was deep in thought, Kasumigaoka Shiu gave a positive reply.

Machida Enzi: "..."

ヾ（ゞ）

The incident that was originally reported was actually true? Shiina-sensei made her comic debut...wait a minute, she seems to be able to cut off her beard.

"Shiyu-chan~!" The old woman who was close to thirty years old actually said in a whisper: "Don't forget, she is also a part-time comic editor..."

Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu shuddered, and then said with black lines on his head: "Yuanzi..."

"Shiyu, Immortal River..."

"Stop!" Before Machida Enzi could express his feelings and reason, Kasumigaoka Shiu asked subconsciously: "Enzi, as a manga editor, you are only responsible for Sougo-kun so far, right? Are you sure you can do it? Are you responsible for Mashiro’s comics?”

Machida Enzi: "..."

She really didn't dare to say she was responsible. After all, there were so many different lines of work, and she could be responsible for that guy Toma, just because he only needed to submit the manuscript, and didn't even need to mention any revision comments. When she got to this stage of being an editor, she didn't want to. It’s so frustrating to think about it!

"Shiyu-chan, do you think it's too late for me to start studying the comic market?"

"Yuanzi..." These words already let Kasumigaoka Shiyu know the other party's answer: "You should be responsible for the light novel first..."

"Shiha-chan, do you know?" Machida Enzi gritted her teeth and said: "The hatred of the spicy mouth is irreconcilable. Obviously, obviously I have become that guy's editor, but I can't take revenge. Do you know this pain? ?”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

"Forget it, we'll talk about the comics later. I'd better take a look at Mr. Shiina's illustrations first!" After letting out the anger in her heart, Machida Enko said to the two of them.

Two minutes later.

Machida Enko, who was holding the original illustration, looked at Kasumigaoka Shiu and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Yuanzi, what's your expression? Can't Zhenbai's paintings work?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu was a little confused.

Shiina Mashiro was stunned after hearing this and said: "Mashiro, can't you?"

Seeing this, Machida Enzi quickly shook her head and said: "It's not that it's not possible, it's that it's too good. Shiu, are you sure you want to use Shiina-sensei's illustrations?"

"What's the problem? Isn't it great?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu was puzzled.

"Because it's so good, Shiyu, your novel will probably, maybe, maybe be described as buying illustrations and giving away toilet paper..." Machida Enko looked at the other party cautiously and said.

"..." Kasumigaoka Shiyu is autistic!

"Shiyu, what do you mean by buying illustrations and getting toilet paper as a gift?" Mashiro Shiina accidentally stabbed her again.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "..."

She was wrong. She thought Mashiro's talent could only affect those who studied painting. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly...

Machida Enzi: -_-!

Shiina-sensei, did you do this on purpose?

"Of course, it is also possible that Shiyu's novel and Shiina-sensei's illustrations complement each other to achieve the effect of 1+1>3..."

"Wait..." Kasumigaoka Shiyu was a little confused: "Yuanzi, can't you be sure about this?"

Machida Enzi turned her head, not daring to look at the other party.

"Yuanzi, you won't really study the comic market recently, right? As an editor, can't you judge this kind of thing?"

"How is it possible!" When Kasumigaoka Shiu questioned her professionalism, Machida Enzi also jumped a little: "If it were an ordinary novel, I would have made a conclusion long ago, but, Shiu, the final volume of your "Metronome of Love"..."

"What happened to the final volume I wrote?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu was a little unhappy.

"Shiyu, the final volume you wrote was not rejected by the library and was successfully published, which completely exceeded my expectations. To be honest, as an editor, I am not optimistic about your final volume..."

"So, you think the final volume I wrote is not worthy of Mashiro's paintings?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu understood somewhat.

"That's right..." Machida Enzi hesitated for a few seconds before nodding and said: "I have a hunch that the final volume you wrote, Shiyu, is likely to be a failure and a Waterloo in your creative career..."

"No, Shiyu's novels are very good, especially the final volume of "Metronome of Love"!" However, before she could finish her words, Mashiro Shiina on the side suddenly spoke.
