Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home

   Chapter 410 Secret Dispute

   An hour passed quickly.

  Feeling that it was about the same time, Megumi put down a third of the novel, took the black cat off her body gently, and went back to the kitchen after washing her hands.

  I lifted the lid and observed the beef in the pot. I poked it lightly with a chopstick. The meat felt soft and elastic, and it would take some time.

   Put the lid aside and start working on the potatoes for the side dish.

   While she was peeling the potatoes…

  —ding dong~, ding dong~

   The doorbell rang suddenly from the entrance.

   "I'll open the door." Kato Yusuke put down the digital pen, got up and walked towards the entrance, opening the door with a "click".

   Appeared in front of him was a woman in a black suit and a black soft hat.

   Beneath the lowered hat, a beautiful melon seed face was dotted with a red lip, rubbed with red lipstick, and the slightly raised corner of the mouth had a faint smile.

   seems to be wearing a veil, which is a bit mysterious.

   "Yo! Good afternoon."

   The woman raised her hand slightly, lifted the brim of her hat, looked over with a pair of burgundy eyes, and announced, "I'm here to see you, boy."

After she finished speaking, she directly reached out and grabbed Yusuke's collar, brought her face up as if she was about to fight, licked her lips and asked, "Tell me, you drew that "Chainsaw Man"? "

  The warm breath blew on his face, and a scent of wine-scented perfume came to his face.

   Looking at this face near Chi Chi, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but startled slightly. He was about to speak, but the other party smiled and turned his face away, put his mouth to his ear, and took a breath.

   "To bring out such a wonderful thing without a sound, made me excited too, to satisfy my appetite, boy."

  The two were sticking together in a very ambiguous posture, it seemed that one of them took the initiative to get close to the other's arms, as if they were flirting.

at this time-

   "Yusuke...?"

   "Wow!"

   The girl's questioning voice and the cat's warning sound suddenly came from behind.

   It was like a thunderstorm exploded in his head.

   Kato Yuujie's complexion changed slightly, he put his hands on the shoulders of Aksaka Akane, and took a step back, allowing the two to distance themselves.

   "...Good afternoon, Miss Kosaka." He whispered first, then turned his body to the left and looked at the room.

  I saw Huizheng wearing an apron standing in the corridor a few steps away, looking at him for a moment with a puzzled expression, or something else.

   And the black cat was standing at her feet, roaring warningly to strangers.

  While Kato Yusuke was still organizing his words to make an introduction, Akizaka Akane asked first.

   "Oh~? Have you moved in with your little girlfriend? Boy."

   followed.

   "...Well, I remember you're Ms. Takasaka, right? Why did you hug Yusuke just now?" Kei asked softly and stepped forward step by step, her face very flat.

   "About this, why don't you ask your little boyfriend?"

"-Oh?"

  The eyes of the two of them gathered at the same time, one was pondering, the other was expressionless.

   Kato Yusuke thought for a while, and asked the playful party, "Is there anything you want to do with me? Miss Kosaka."

   "What? Have you forgotten what I just said?" Aksaka Zhuyin folded her hands, leaned against the door frame, and said with a half-smile, "I'm here to satisfy my appetite, boy."

   Hearing this, Megumi first glanced at her, then quickly turned her eyes back, looking at Yusuke's expression as if asking "What does Miss Kosaka mean?".

   Kato Yusuke did not answer immediately, but glanced at the rolled up book of "Shawn Undead" in Aksaka Akane's hand, and asked, "For the manga thing?"

   "Bingo, your brain isn't that stupid." Kasaka Akane snapped her fingers, straightened her body playfully, and walked towards the room generously.

   "So that's it, deal with your little girlfriend first, I'll wait for you."

   "Woo meow!" Seeing her passing by his side, the black cat couldn't help but arched his body and was about to pounce, but was picked up in the next second.

   The one who picked it up was Megumi.

   "No, Xiao Hei." She first comforted the black cat softly, and then looked up at someone standing quietly by the entrance.

   "Aren't you closing the door? Yusuke."

The    response was surprisingly flat.

   "...Close it." Kato Yusuke nodded and closed the door with a "click".

   Seeing him approaching, the black cat instinctively wanted to jump on his shoulders, but the girl didn't let it go, she just said:

   "Yusuke has work to do now, let's not disturb them yet."

   After saying that, he hugged the cat and walked into the living room.

  “…”

   Kato Yusuke's lips moved, and he returned to the living room without saying anything.

   On the workbench he was sitting on, Aksaka Akane, who had taken off his hat and suit jacket, was sitting there, carefully studying the manuscript on the digital screen on the table.

   Hearing their footsteps, she urged her.

   "How is it? Have you finished your work? Come here quickly when you're done! Boy."

   Her tone was very impolite, her originally low voice was slightly higher than usual due to excitement.

   Kato Yusuke did not respond, but looked at Megumi.

  The girl just put the black cat back on the cat climbing frame and turned around to look.

   "By the way, dinner will be ready in a while. Will Miss Kosaka eat here too? Yusuke."

   "No." - Kato Yusuke shook his head, just as he was about to answer, Aksaka Akane spoke first.

   "—Well, that's what I said, then I'll stay for a light meal by the way, hard work, little sister."

   There is no politeness in his words, but it is as if he is the master here.

   Kato Yusuke frowned, while Megumin watched him quietly, waiting for an answer.

   A brief silence.

   "Can I trouble you? Megumi."

   "Well, that means Ms. Takasaka will stay, right?"

The    girl tilted her head slightly and said, "Well~ I understand, then I will continue to prepare."

   didn't wait for him to respond, he just went back to the kitchen, and then the previous progress continued to be busy.

   Kato Yusuke stared at her back, unable to guess her mood for a while, so he looked back and walked to the desk.

   "What do you want to know? Miss Kosaka."

   Redsaka Zhuyin heard the indifference in his tone, turned his face slightly to look at him, and a meaningful smile twitched at the corners of his lips.

   "What? Are you afraid of me?"

"What's the meaning?"

   "Otherwise, why don't you even dare to use your previous pseudonym? You also secretly changed the pseudonym "Fujimoto Tree", aren't you afraid that I will mess with you? "

   "Correctly speaking, it is trouble." Kato Yusuke corrected her statement and said solemnly: "Your character is too crazy, I just want to avoid trouble."

   Hongsaka Zhuyin sneered: "After all, aren't you afraid that I will engage you?"

  —Boom!

   The dull sound of chopping the case suddenly sounded in the room.

   "I'm sorry, you two."

  The girl's voice came from the kitchen: "I want to ask what you mean by what you mean?"

   Kato Yusuke's eyelids twitched slightly.

   It was a very soft and clear voice, the sweetness of the voice was like the wind chimes sung under the porch in summer, which was very pleasant.

   However, with the movement in front, there is a feeling of trembling.

   Kato Yusuke looked back, just met the girl's deep gaze, like a deep and quiet pool, reflecting his appearance.

   The words that just came to the mouth couldn't help but stagnate for a second, and then they spoke smoothly after a second.

   "It's just some things at work, I have some misunderstandings with Miss Takasaka."

   Akisaka Akane took over the topic.

   "Don't fool around here, kid. I've said it long ago, mediocrity can't survive in this line of work. It's rare that you still have some skills, so let me squeeze them all out."

  's words of superiority were full of strength and ego, which made Hui frown slightly, but the doubts in her heart were temporarily softened.

   She didn't like this person a little, but she didn't judge anything arrogantly, she just gave Kato Yusuke a thoughtful look, said something like this, and then continued to cut potatoes.

   Dong Dong, Button, Gudu Gudu.

   The rhythm of cooking became gentle again, just like the atmosphere in the room.

   Kato Yusuke turned his face back and looked at the person beside him with deep eyes.

   To meet his eyes, Kasaka Zhuyin just held her chin with one hand and sneered, as if mocking.

   "Okay, let's get down to business. I have read the original manuscripts of your two episodes. For the sake of being a little interesting, I can temporarily put aside the things that you violated the agreement."

Having said that, she turned the swivel chair to the left, raised her right leg, and drew an arc in the air with her toes wrapped in black silk, seemingly inadvertently swept across Yusuke's dantian, and placed it on her left leg. above.

   "Now, tell me your synopsis."

   Kato Yusuke didn't know if she was intentional or not, but the attitude of this order still made him unhappy, he just suppressed it without saying a word.

   Seeing him taking a cold confrontation, Kasaka Zhuyin was not angry at all, her eyes first passed him to the girl with her back turned to him, and then cast it on his face, with a bit of playfulness in her eyes.

   "Is this okay? You don't want your little girlfriend to know about us, do you?"

The    eyes conveyed a similar meaning.

   Kato Yusuke narrowed his eyes slightly and returned a "whatever you want" look. Although the expression on his face was a little cold, there was no such thing as a guilty conscience or compromise.

   Redsaka Zhuyin frowned slightly when she saw this, thinking that she might have misunderstood something.

   She thought for a while, then raised her foot and kicked his calf, and changed her tone: "If you don't want to talk about this, just talk about your arrangement for this work, and I can give you some suggestions."

   about three seconds apart.

   Kato Yusuke asked humbly, "What's the arrangement?"

   "The length of this comic, how many episodes are there?"

   "Less than a hundred."

   Redsaka Zhuyin took a look, "According to the original calculation of a single line, is it about 10 volumes?"

   "It's volume 11."

   "That's not bad. Today's readers are influenced by new things and don't have high durability. Medium-length comics are gradually becoming the mainstream. If you dare to draw long-length novels, you are courting death."

   She stopped here, and then changed her words, "But based on your current plot, 11 volumes seems to be insufficient, and if it is less than 25 volumes, it may be about the same."

   "No." Kato Yusuke shook his head, "Only 11 volumes."

"Um?"

   Redsaka Zhuyin frowned and said: "You must know that the length of a work is affected by the number of characters, the plot structure, the length of the main story, etc.

  Sometimes even the author can't make a statement, why can your tone be so certain? "

   At the end, her tone was filled with suspicion.

   As a manga artist who made her debut and is still one of the ceilings of manga artists until now, no one knows all aspects of comics better than her.

   Although she didn't feel it at first, when Yusuke continued to insist on the number of 11 volumes, it made her feel a little strange.

   In the face of her doubts, Kato Yusuke didn't mean to explain, but simply responded with the sentence "This is enough to tell a complete story", and he didn't mention more.

   Hongsaka Zhuyin didn't ask any more questions after seeing this, and vaguely guessed that he should already have a complete plot development and context, so he discussed some other issues with him about the plot.

   Ignoring that bad character, as the first manga artist, she is indeed experienced, and Kato Yusuke has also gained something from it.

As for Akasaka Zhuyin, he was also pleasantly surprised to get a lot of inspiration and brain holes from his few words about the plot and character settings, which made him even more excited, looking at him as if he wanted to take a bite eat.

   The two chatted, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

   Megumi in the kitchen was attracted by their gradually increasing voices, and occasionally looked back, while she was silently doing seasoning work.

   Wait for the potatoes to simmer for about half an hour.

   She interrupted the conversation between the two and said, "Well, dinner is ready, Yusuke."

  As the sound spread in the room, Kato Yusuke also stopped communicating with Akizaka Akane and started to go to the kitchen to help.

   After a busy time, the food was served quickly.

   After simmering for more than 1 hour, the tomato brisket is brightly colored, and the thick and soft tomato evenly wraps the large dark brown brisket, which makes the index finger move.

  The hot air rising from the pot is accompanied by the rich food aroma, which constantly stimulates the appetite in the body.

   However, when Aksaka Zhuyin picked up a piece of beef brisket with chopsticks in anticipation and put it into his mouth...

  “…!”

   Her expression suddenly changed, from smiling to dignified, and then she glanced at the girl opposite, and silently put down her chopsticks and looked at someone beside her.

   Kato Yusuke didn't notice her expression, he also added a piece of beef brisket and put it in his mouth, tasting it...

   A kind of salty, tongue-tingling taste spread in the mouth like a salt seller.

   "Is it delicious? Boy." Akizaka Zhuyin asked with a long smile, her voice full of urgency.

  Mei didn't speak, just ate rice silently, only rice.

  The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

   Kato Yusuke paused for a second, didn't look up to look at anyone, just took two mouthfuls of rice, and then took a piece of beef brisket, and ate it as usual.

   "I feel good."

   He said so in a calm tone.

  …

   (7/10 of the underwriting progress, the latter counts separately...)
