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

  Chapter 467 The Service Area of ​​the Collection

  The bus continued to drive.

   After that, Kato Yusuke drew the original manuscript on a digital screen, while Eiri watched quietly beside him, observing his brushstrokes and techniques.

   After observing for a while, Yingri was surprised to find that his level had improved again!

  From the action of the characters, the understanding of the modeling, to the interaction between the characters and the scene, as well as the extremely unique mirroring technique.

   These details all reveal one thing - Kato Yusuke seems to have entered a field she has not yet touched.

   If you describe it carefully, although most of the above can be classified as basic skills, it is another matter to want to do it as easily as he does.

   In addition, the way of storytelling is also very subtle.

   Take the original manuscript Kato Yusuke is currently drawing as an example. There are three characters in the picture, namely Denji, Machima, and Himeno.

The    plot is a question and answer between two female characters about who Dian Mino is kissing.

  The picture is simply divided into four grids, in which the backgrounds of Machima and Himeno only use simple blurred lines, and the background of Denji is completely blacked out.

   Honestly, even if it is a drawing book, Eri Riri would not draw like this.

   That style is not very similar to the way of expression in comics, but has a taste of movie storytelling.

  If it was her to draw, it would probably start with Machima’s inquiry, to a close-up shot of the local action, and then to the linkage change of the next character, and proceed in turn, basically following the line of sight.

  It will also add the perspective of the human body depending on the situation, and change the action of the division to highlight the emotions and tension, etc. In short, it is almost a traditional cartoon expression method.

  Through the previous paintings of other scenes, Ying Lili knew that he must also master these knowledge and skills, but he made a different choice.

   The result is a strong personal style and a unique charm that makes the work unique.

   But in a sense, this is one of the many features of "Chainsaw Man".

  Eriri thought to herself, and at the same time asked some questions about the character characterization and the design of the storyboard, asked Kato Yusuke why he did this, and got answers one by one.

   After touching their heads, the two spent a short question-and-answer period.

   Involuntarily, she thought of Kato Yusuke who couldn't even draw storyboards well and had to teach everything by her own hands.

   I felt a little lonely for no reason, as if I had been abandoned.

   At the same time, several other complex emotions permeated the body.

   With a little unwillingness, a little unwillingness to admit defeat, and a little pride. While thinking silently, Eiri unconsciously focused her eyes on Kato Yusuke's face.

  The digital pen slides smoothly on the screen, making a very neat melody.

   The side faces of the cartoons were quietly drawn next to her, which made her unconsciously fascinated.

   At a certain moment, Kato Yusuke met her gaze as if he noticed the gaze on his face.

"What's wrong?"

"…what?"

   thumped, heart beating gently.

   "Is there something on my face?"

"…"

   Kato Yusuke pondered for a while, and said with some trouble: "...Do you still want to be touched? But I am now drawing the original."

"-certainly not!"

   was immediately rejected.

   In his puzzling eyes, Yingri raised one foot with a pretense of calmness, leaned forward while propping her elbow up, resting her chin with one hand, and said:

   "...I'm just a little interested in your next plot. I wanted to ask, but since you're busy, forget it."

   "Are you interested in the plot of "Chainsaw Man"...?"

   "What do you mean by that tone, can't you?"

   "It's not impossible, but aren't you interested in cute works?"

   "That's what I said, but the popularity of "Chainsaw Man" has been so high recently, so naturally I have to think about drawing books!"

   "Oh... as expected of you."

   "What are you doing, your words seem to have some deep meaning."

   "So, whose book do you want to draw?"

  Eri, who was just responding casually, couldn't help but hesitate for a while. He didn't expect that he would continue to ask questions. After hesitating for a while, he said:

   "I-I don't need to ask, as far as the character you're playing now, it must be Machima!"

   "That's Machima and Denji..."

   Kato Yusuke turned his eyes back to the digital screen, picked up the pen to draw again, and replied at the same time: "Well, it's not impossible."

   "I told you not to speak with such an ambiguous attitude. Besides, Dianji also likes Machima, don't you think the cp you set is not them?"

   "cp, it depends on how you understand it."

The tone of    became a little more subtle.

   "Won't they be together at the end of the story?"

   "Well... in a physical sense, it should be considered together, let alone feelings, at least two people are integrated?"

   "Why are you the one who asked the question??" Ying Lili asked with a frown, her expression slightly puzzled.

   "It's nothing, I just thought of some things. You can just let go and paint. At least with Maqima's current popularity, you can't go wrong in choosing her."

   Ying Lili curled her lips and muttered something in a low voice, but she didn't ask any further questions.

   As Kato Yusuke said, she is still interested in traditional cute works.

  , including popular works such as "Chainsaw Man", is only the subject of the book for her.

  I paint whatever sells well, and it keeps changing with market trends, creating a book that makes people excited. This is the only way and the biggest characteristic of the popular book painter Eri Kashiwagi.

   And after such a chat, Yingri did come up with an idea, "It seems to be a good idea to draw a fan work of "The Chainsaw Man".

   But then, she thought of the fan exhibition she was going to participate in next month, and the commemorative book of the society that was scheduled to be released at COMI in the winter, but it has not been touched yet - "MemoriesOfLily".

  Thinking about it again, there is still just over a month before the opening of Winter COMI, and I have a headache in an instant. It is the soul of the fish who is at work!

   Faced with such a difficult situation, Eiri held her head and whimpered for a while, then she stretched out a hand and grabbed the sleeve of the person beside her.

   "...Yusuke, help me!"

   Kato Yusuke, who was painting, moved his hand for a while and looked over suspiciously.

"help you with what?"

   "I, I want it! Hurry up and give it to me!"

  dong, the sound of the forehead popping sounded.

   "It hurts!? What are you doing!"

   "No matter how anxious you are, think before you speak. You are no longer a primary school student."

  Eriri's original angry expression froze on her face, as if she had just realized the ambiguity in her speech just now, her mouth was slightly opened and closed, and her face seemed to be on fire.

  Boom, a small fist hit Yusuke Kato's chest.

   "Aren't you an idiot? I said that I want you to help me draw doujinshi, why do you think about obscene things? Change, pervert!"

   Suddenly there was a little nailing in the uterine cavity.

   "Drawing doujinshi?"

   Kato Yusuke looked at Eiri in front of him, thought about it, and said, "Let me ask first, do you want me to help you draw the book of "The Chainsaw Man"?"

   Is this an official copy?

The thought of    crossed his mind in an instant.

   "You said before that you would help me?"

   "I said that, but your whimsy makes people a little speechless. Besides, "The Chainsaw Man" has a different style of painting. If you don't change the style, it is not suitable for the cost of painting."

   "You just need to imitate my brushstrokes, anyway, haven't you done this before? This is an easy thing for you."

   "The problem is not here... Forget it, what you say is what you say." Kato Yusuke gave up the argument and stopped trying to care about her heresy.

Isn't    the official edition? As long as the author does not admit it, it can only be regarded as fan creation at most, just like a third-party mod of some games.

   Besides, if you really want to paint with a different brush, it is also a question whether someone can recognize it.

   Seeing his agreement, Yingri nodded with satisfaction and said, "There is also the commemorative book of Dong COMI. I will ask you for help when I need it."

   "If I have time." Kato Yusuke replied.

   So, things were settled like this.

  Unconsciously, time is passing by.

   After driving for about forty minutes, the bus entered the service area and stopped in the open parking lot.

"Everyone-"

   Hasumi Kanoko, who was sitting in the front row, got up and reminded:

   "Those who want to go to the bathroom should take advantage of it now, and those who need to buy things for their families can also go. We will stop here for half an hour."

  ““Yes~~~!”””

  The students responded one after another and filed off the bus in sequence.

   Kato Yusuke and Eiri also walked down.

  The air blowing in front of you is not as fresh as in the mountains, but it is still refreshing.

  Thick cumulonimbus clouds floated on the blue sky, like a group of whales roaming in the deep sea.

   In addition to the bus from Toyozaki Academy, there are also some private cars parked in the parking lot.

  Crowds of students walked towards the facilities in the service area in twos and threes, which instantly brought vigor and vitality to the place.

   "Oh, I'm down~! Do you want to go shopping for souvenirs together? Kato-san, and Sawamura-san."

   Himekawa Yoshiko, who stepped out of the car first, waved and shouted not far away, and the rest of the Kato squad also stood beside her.

   "How are you, do you want to go together? Eiri." Kato Yusuke asked beside him.

  Eriri first nodded slightly, then said a little embarrassedly: "But I want to go to the bathroom first."

   "Then let's go over there first, maybe someone else will go too."

"Um."

   The two walked up together.

  After discussion, the girls decided to go to the bathroom first, while the boys went to the store first, so the two sides split up.

   Walking into the store with full air conditioning, the icy cold air suddenly rushed towards my face, causing goose bumps on my neck.

   "Wow! It's so cold."

   Yamaguchi shivered uncontrollably, and then asked, "What are you two going to buy?"

  Takei folded his hands behind his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Like soy sauce or something?"

   "So perfunctory, is it necessary to come to Chiba to buy that kind of thing? It's too unlucky to be your family, so I apologize to them!"

   "Why!?"

   "It's a specialty after all. You should at least choose something that Tokyo is not very easy to buy. And Kato? Have you decided what to buy?"

   Kato Yusuke shook his head, replied, and then went back to the depths of the store.

  The shelves are neatly arranged vertically and horizontally with a dazzling variety of products.

  From delicate small items like key chains, to various peripherals of Chiba Prefecture's mascot "Chiba-kun (チーバくん, to desserts, food, fruits, etc., basically everything.

  Speaking of Chiba-kun, it is a wild red rabid dog with a tongue sticking out, and the shape is said to be designed with reference to the map of Chiba Prefecture.

   Anyway, since he came here, Kato Yusuke bought two Chiba-kun keychains.

   After that, he bought wet pancakes, glutinous rice cakes filled with peanuts, and a pear gift box, which is a specialty of Chiba.

   The pear gift box at the end made him a little confused.

   After asking the shop owner, I found out that Chiba Prefecture is the place with the largest production of pears in Japan.

  ‘In this way, it seems that it can also be classified as a special product. ’ He thought uncertainly and added the gift box to the shopping basket.

  Because most of the products are printed with the "local limited" logo, it greatly saves the time of selection.

   I just picked from left to right, and finally bought a lot of things.

   Kato Yusuke, who had settled the bill, looked at a corner of the store, and saw the Mangosteen brothers taking pictures around the Chiba-kun sculpture in the store, making jubilant laughter from time to time.

   He didn't bother to go over to see this, and left the store with the things he bought, intending to go back to the bus first.

After    walked out of the store, the service area seemed to become more lively.

   Not only are there many more people walking around, but there are even more buses in the parking lot.

   Judging from the young and unfamiliar faces around, it seems that another school’s extra-campus activities stop here.

   Kato Yusuke looked around at random, and there was a queue in the bathroom in the distance, but he didn't see Eiri and Megumi.

   His eyes turned to the other side with the gathering crowd, and stopped for a moment at a shop selling food.

   It is placed on the small blackboard used to attract customers in front of the store, and the words "Delicious butter potatoes!" are written in prominent fonts, which are quite eye-catching.

  There are also many customers in front of the store, among which you can see girls from our school.

   Sayu likes to eat this, he suddenly thought to himself.

  The image of two people taking a late-night bus together and eating various delicacies in the service area flashed in my mind.

   A little nostalgia and loneliness emerged from the bottom of my heart at the same time, as if to inform that it was impossible to return to yesterday today.

   Kato Yusuke shuffled towards the bus and decided to buy a butter potato after putting away his things.

  …
