Chapter 408 Reaction

  The unique mirroring technique brings unique effects, resulting in a chemical-like reaction, with an indescribable attraction and peculiar charm.

   Some demons can attach themselves to the body of a dead person.

When    was dying, Bochita remembered the agreement between the two, and it turned into a heart and merged into Denji's body, successfully bringing him back to life.

   After the resurrection, Denji has a pull ring on his chest, which is the tail of Bochita, which is integrated with him.

   Xianggaku Mayu's small face was tensed, his lips pursed, and his expression was very serious.

   Obviously it is a wicked manga, but it seems to contain some kind of magic, allowing her to continue reading.

  Only relying on the pictures, can bring readers an immersive experience and be brought into the emotional changes of sadness and joy.

   Facing the zombie demon and his subordinates, after the resurrection, Dianji had no time to grieve for the loss of Bochita, and angrily pulled the Griphook on his chest.

   Accompanied by the special effect words representing the sound of the chainsaw engine starting, the harness lines in the picture are gathered in the middle.

   in the zombie group.

  A "monster" wearing a steel helmet, with monster-like spiky teeth and a chainsaw blade on its head and arms - just emerged from the zombie horde!

   The next moment, Dianji, who transformed into a chainsaw man, began to slaughter the Quartet in the zombie pile.

  The flesh and blood in the picture is flying, showing a picture tension like a cult film.

  Although it is a black and white comic, it seems to have a **** smell that stimulates the senses.

   Looking at Dianji who was stepping on top of the zombies and laughing wildly, Sagara Mayu's temples jumped, and her eyelids blinked very quickly.

   "Evil Dao..." She murmured dumbfounded and quickly turned the page.

   In the screen on the next page, a group of three people wearing black suits and trench coats appeared at the warehouse entrance.

  Looking at the only living creature in the field, the woman standing in the center raised her feet calmly, without the slightest fear of Denji turning into a monster.

   "You, you have a strange smell on your body. You don't look like a human or a demon."

The woman has soft, medium-length hair, with braids tied at the back of her head, and a pair of eyes that look like reincarnation eyes. She looks between the surrounding mountains of corpses and the sea of ​​blood in front of her, and asks with a slightly raised corner of her mouth. .

   "You made these?"

  The bright sunlight hit behind her, depicting her soft silhouette, dazzlingly illuminating Dianji, who was scarred in the dark.

   Kato Yusuke spent a little thought here, and focused on the appearance of Machima without changing the overall style.

   If there is a faint smile, soft and delicate facial contours, soft and slender hair.

  Frigid and capable of smooth lines, simple in spirit, complex in fineness, exuding a forbidden fragrance like lily, full of charm.

   "Wow! Look so good...!" Sagaku Zhenyu's eyes lit up instantly, and he gently stretched out his fingers to trace the lines of the characters, as if he was practicing copying.

   Facing the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him, Denji couldn't help but express his inner desire.

   "Hug... Hug me..."

The    woman glanced at him, and even though his appearance was as terrifying as a demon, she gave him a big warm hug without hesitation.

  The tenderness in the picture emerges on the paper, swept away the previous depression and eerieness.

   The helmet on Denji's head melted like mud, and the chainsaw on his body was retracted, returning to its original appearance.

   "It's a human..."

   Watching Denji recovering his human form under his embrace, the female police demon hunter gently hugged him on her lap and gave him two choices.

   One was killed by her as a demon,

  Two is to be her dog as a human.

   "If you are my dog, I will feed you well."

   Looking at the woman who was smiling indifferently in front of him, Denji asked after a moment's pause.

   "The feed you said... What can you eat in the morning?"

   responds to convenience by thinking.

   "Hmm~~~~...bread with butter and jam...salad, coffee, and dessert..."

   Hearing this, Denji let out a groaning emotion.

   "It's almost invincible..."

   Seeing Sagaraku Mayu here, she couldn't help but burst into laughter, and then turned to the next page.

   On the blank end page, Bochita with a chainsaw on his face is waving cutely goodbye, signaling the end of the manga.

   "Huh? It's over..." She couldn't help sighing, putting down the comics with a bit of disappointment.

   "What's wrong with you? Mayu."

   Fumio Sagara heard her sigh and turned his head to look, his eyes fell on the book "Youth Undead" on the small table.

   "Huh? Isn't that a shounen manga? You were reading that just now??"

   The elder brother who said so stepped forward curiously, picked up the manga magazine on the small table, and looked at the little sister sitting on the ground with a strange face.

   "When did you become interested in shounen manga? Is the sun coming out of the south tomorrow?"

   "You are so annoying, brother, I don't want to talk now."

   "Hey, why are you suddenly in a bad mood? Wasn't it okay just now?"

   "It's not that it's getting worse, it's just that I just finished reading a special comic, and my mood is a bit complicated."

   "A special manga?" Fumio Sagara blinked and asked, "What's so special?"

   Xianggaku Mayun nodded with a hum, just holding his knees with both hands, and hesitantly said: "How should I say it... It seems a bit like that kind of dark hero story, and it's a bit curious."

   "Huh? Isn't this completely avoiding your liking? Why even watch it?"

   "Well, because it was recommended by that Kasumi Shiko-sensei, and...it's really interesting."

   Hearing the words, Xianggaku Fumio suddenly became interested.

   "Oh, I can hear comments other than cute from my sister. Which one in this book are you talking about?"

   "The middle one, "The Chainsaw Man"."

After    pointed out the direction for his brother, Sagaku Mayu reached out and picked up the milk pudding from the table, tore off the plastic wrap on the surface with a "sizzle", and ate it.

  The sweet and delicious pudding slowly melts in the mouth, and the rich milk taste mixed with the sweetness like honey makes the mood happy.

   "Hmm~~~~"

   The younger sister narrowed her eyes in enjoyment, but the older brother suddenly screamed.

   "Tomato Devil? What the **** is this??"

   "Be quiet, bro." Sagaku Mayu said, and then played on the phone idly.

   While thinking about the post-reading of the manga, I naturally opened Twitter, ready to go online to check the situation.

   When she entered the keyword "#"Chainsawman" in the search bar, she found that someone had already created a related entry.

   Not only that, but after clicking on it, there are already hundreds of related topics, and they are still increasing.

   Judging from the speed of the topics that are constantly being refreshed, it is obviously very popular. Everyone is discussing this anti-routine work, which is very enthusiastic.

   Xianggaku Mayu read the comments on the Internet for a while, and then used Fumio Sagano's account to edit a status under the relevant entry.

  -"I just watched "The Chainsaw Man", it's really a unique and interesting work, the unexpected development, the special way of storytelling, the author is amazing!"

After    was sent, the topic stayed at the top for a second, and was swiped down by other people's posts.

  At this time—

   "Cool—!"

   Sagura Fumio slapped his thigh violently, and said excitedly: "Mayu, this comic is really enjoyable, it makes adrenaline surge!"

   Before his sister could speak, he continued to speak.

   "By the way, is this really a hot-blooded comic for young people? This scale should be more appropriate in the youth hunter, right?"

   "And the last woman from the Ministry of Public Security did a great job drawing! It suits my taste very well, it's amazing!"

   "I think this manga will probably be popular, otherwise, think about it, how about showing her doujinshi at the next doujinshi show?"

   Xianggaku Fumio had a hearty face, and the sbalasi in his mouth was endless.

   Xianggaku Mayu glanced at his brother, ignoring his desire to take the opportunity to satisfy his selfish request, just swiping his phone.

   As for the prediction that this manga will become popular, I don’t know the reason why I don’t usually read shounen manga, so I can’t estimate the extent of the “fire” my brother said.

   She was just a little emotional about the author of this comic, the teacher "Fujimoto Tree", and felt that the other party was indeed the person Kasumi Shiko valued.

   And although she didn't know it, she felt the change intuitively inside the Manga Department of the Undead River.

   That was when the editorial department held a regular morning meeting.

   This is the daily regular meeting of the editorial department. There are editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, and 3 team leaders participating.

  The matters discussed range from the excavation of newcomers, to the popularity survey of serial works, to the discussion of some controversial works, and the follow-up arrangements for those final works.

   However, compared to "Juvenile Jump", which has an endless stream of submissions, the work of the editorial department of "Juvenile Undead" will be much more leisurely, and the threshold for review will be slightly lower.

   As long as the submitted works have their own highlights and the style of painting is not too bad, they can basically be serialized in the end.

   After all, if you can’t even reach the most basic standard of 24 works, then you can’t talk about publishing.

  In this regard, each company has different standards. For example, "Youth Jump" pursues an elite standard of one-on-one editors and authors, and the number of serialized works in each issue is 20.

   And the standard for "Youth Magazine" is 28.

   However, like most manga magazines, the editorial department of Shonen Undead also follows a questionnaire-based supremacy.

  The results of the questionnaire have nothing to do with the author's previous grades and experience, and are all applicable.

   Even the popular works and authors may stop serialization if the questionnaire results are not good.

In this situation.

If the popularity index of a work continues to rank at the end, it will decide to cut it in half and make way for new serial works, resulting in many short-term serial works with only 10 to 20 issues, which is a common thing in the comics industry. .

   The editorial standard of "Youth Undead" is to maintain the number of serialized works at 24.

  The works with the last two comprehensive rankings will be included in the list of consideration for halving, while the works ranked in the tenth place can be classified as middle and lower reaches.

   Every time the topic of halving is discussed, the atmosphere in the conference room becomes a little dignified.

   So normally, no one would be ignorant enough to disturb me at this time, but today is different...

  —ding bell bell~

  —ding bell bell~

   The urgent phone bell rang one after another in the editorial department.

   The old editor-in-chief Suzuki, who was sitting in the first place, held his thermos cup and took a sip of buckwheat tea, thinking about what to say next, while waiting for the phone outside to stop.

   And he didn't speak, so other people naturally didn't dare to speak.

   Kimura, who was sitting under him, swept his eyes across the face of a group leader with a bitter expression on the opposite side. He thought for a moment about the work that the other party would be cut in half, and then thought of the teacher Fujimoto.

   couldn't help but secretly guessed the opponent's ranking in the next issue.

   Unlike the three editors who were still struggling in the position of group leader, his mentality was well placed.

   After all, Kasumi Shizi publicly paved the way for someone in her novel, which is already well known within the Undead River.

   Under such circumstances, even if the popularity of the work is sluggish at the end, he will not be too implicated.

   After all, he is just a practitioner.

  It was done, and naturally his contribution was indispensable. If it didn't work, it was also Xia Shizi's willful behavior, and the main responsibility did not fall on his head.

  He Kimura just needs to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and wait for the result.

  'However, there is also a call from Xia Shizi. The popularity in the first week should not be too bad, and I don't know how the sales are now...' Just when he was thinking about this...

   - knock knock.

"excuse me!"

   With a loud apology, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open with a "click".

   An editor just walked in.

   The old editor-in-chief Suzuki who saw this scene couldn't help frowning and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

   This kid is going to be out of luck.

   At this moment, Kimura and the three team leaders couldn't help thinking at the same time.

   And the young editor seemed to know nothing about his situation, but said excitedly:

   "Editor-in-chief! A number of bookstores have just called and asked us to add the order quantity for this issue of manga magazines!"

   The editor-in-chief Suzuki, who heard this, frowned even more, with a bit of reprimand in his tone: "Add more, what's the panic of frizz? Don't you know you're in a meeting now?"

   "But..." The young editor tried to explain, but was interrupted by him.

   "I remember that you have been working for two years, right? In this case, you will give priority to the stockpile, and if there is not enough, you will place an order with the printing factory. Have you done it all?"

   "...Yes, I'm really sorry—!"

   Being disciplined like this, the young editor immediately bowed deeply, then straightened up and replied:

   "All the stored goods have been dispatched, and there are colleagues in the printing factory who are also contacting me, sorry for the inconvenience!"

After   , he carefully turned around and walked out.

   The old editor-in-chief of Suzuki nodded majestically, hummed, then calmly picked up his thermos cup, put it to his mouth, and asked casually.

   "By the way, the bookstores you mentioned, how many orders did you place in total?"

   The young editor who was about to walk out of the room stopped abruptly, turned around again, and replied softly in a very respectful tone: "About 100,000 volumes, editor-in-chief."

Um-?

  Suzuki's old editor suddenly shook his hand holding the thermos cup, and a little of the hot tea inside spilled onto his pants.

   But he couldn't care about this for the time being, instead he put down the cup with a sullen face, looked at the editor with piercing eyes, and asked, "...How much did you just say?"

   With everyone watching, the young editor raised the volume slightly and repeated.

   "Before I entered the conference room, there were a total of 100,000 copies, but there are still colleagues answering the phone behind, maybe the number has changed, editor-in-chief."

  In an instant, a strange silence filled the conference room.

  …
