In this way, the days of exchange between Kitajuku and Musashimi University passed quickly.

During this period, there was no plot like the one in the online article where Musashi Meidai looked down on Higashinoji, and then Higashinoji turned around and slapped him in the face.

People who have truly received higher education rarely commit such stupid things.

Even when Higashinoji left, he received a lot of sketches from Musashibi University students, and he even joked happily: "Kuronomiya-san has already handed in his homework to you, Higashino-sensei, so of course we can't lag behind."

This made Higashinoji somewhat dumbfounded, but he still said that he would collect and appreciate it when he went back.

As for Akisa Kuromiya... Higashinoji doesn't know much about her specific situation.

It's easy for gifted students like this to get into trouble, and it's easy to get stuck and not get out.

I hope the other party can come out of it smoothly after hearing what I said yesterday.

But...it's okay if I can't get out for the time being.

As Higashinoji said yesterday, Akisa Kuromiya is still young and will have a lot of time to improve herself in the future. It won't be a big problem if she just goes astray temporarily.

Higashinoji smiled and stopped caring about Kuromiya Meisa's affairs, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the creation of "Midnight Ring" and "The Lonely Gourmet".

Because he had previously promised to Chief Editor Urashima that he would give "The Ring" the most perfect ending.

"Work harder." Higashino glanced at the time and then seriously devoted himself to the creation of the comic.

He himself is a person who takes his works very seriously, but when he devoted himself to comic creation, it was difficult for him to pay attention to external things.

Although I still go to Kita Normal University for classes every day, whether I am walking on the road to Kita Normal University or on the way home, I can't help but think about the plot of "The Ring".

Even when cooking at home, he would suddenly make two gestures with a spatula in his hand, as if the plot in his mind could be expressed through these movements.

Chihaya Higashino also drove away Higashinoji in disgust and refused to let him play games with her.

Because in the game Squirrel Moving Boxes, you can move teammates to smash monsters.

Higashinoji sometimes gets distracted, and while playing, he will pick up her teammate and throw her into the pile of monsters.

It made her angry for a long time.

Just like that, a week passed quickly...

When the new chapter of "The Ring" came out, it was not just the people at Urashima Publishing who were shocked.

Even other comic book publishing houses have been attracted by Higashino Tsukasa's "Midnight Ring".

Among them, the editorial department of Fuji Publishing House, which had previously poached Urashima Publishing House, had the most exaggerated reaction.

"No... the new episode of "Midnight Ring" is too exaggerated, right?"

Looking at the cover of "Midnight Bell" drawn by Higashinoji, the editor-in-chief of Fuji Publishing House, Shinji Furuta, opened his mouth wide and his eyes went straight.

He is the editor-in-chief of Fuji Publishing, and after he took office, the performance of Fuji Publishing's weekly and monthly comics has directly improved to a higher level.

And Shinji Furuta also feels that he has seen many excellent works.

but--

"This is too exaggerated."

Looking at the cover, Furuta Shinji had a headache.

In the distance are thick dark clouds drawn with large strokes of ink, and the waves are rolling, adding a sense of fear to the comic's silence.

And under this dark night, there is a long ship floating on the sea, the oppressive waves and the insignificance of Nagakawa... Among them, there is also a heroine Asakawa Reiko with a face full of pain, leaning against her ex-husband Takayama Ryu.

Close-up of Si's arms.

The two of them raised their eyes half-way, filled with fear of the unknown and terrifying future...

It's not just the covers that are in turmoil.

It seems that even the reader's mood is trembling along with the picture.

It’s just that the cover is so outstanding, and the content behind it, needless to say, Furuta Shinji, simply elevates the sense of fear and oppression to the maximum!

Returning to Izu Island, the time storyboard reminds readers all the time... What will happen to the male protagonist Ryuji Takayama and the female protagonist Reiko Asakawa in the end?

He almost finished reading the entire episode with a weak conscience.

“Is this the so-called step forward?”

After closing "Aversion to Cold", Shinji Furuta felt his scalp numb.

Originally, he thought that the previous episode of "The Ring" had done his best, but this episode of "The Ring" completely overturned his expectations.

"But if this is the rhythm, "Midnight Ring" will be over." Furuta Shinji murmured to himself, completely confused as to what his old rival Urashima Publishing House wanted to do.

"Midnight Ring" has no intention of slowing down the rhythm at all. The momentum is simply directed towards the conclusion...

"Probably not." Shinji Furuta touched his hair again and felt a headache for no reason.

He has a problem, he tends to lose his hair whenever he has a headache... I hope the next "Midnight Ring" will not give him another headache.

After all, in the opinion of Shinji Furuta, this chapter "Midnight Ring" is already considered the best among the best. Higashino wants to maintain this status and draw something better than this chapter...

.

This is so difficult!

Because these words are so excellent! It’s normal to say that Higashiyoshi has made great progress.

Thinking of this, Furuta Shinji immediately called an editor and informed him that he could write some soft articles to suppress the worrying future of "Midnight Ring".

After all, this chapter of "Midnight Ring" is considered a big breakout, and the quality of the next chapter will definitely be much inferior to this one.

After doing all this, Shinji Furuta touched his hair again - he wanted to wait for the result of the next episode "The Ring".

Then...a week later.

"No...? What is this?"

Looking at the latest episode of "Midnight Ring" in his hand, Furuta Shinji felt completely stupid.

Everyone was really stupid.

Because this chapter of "The Ring"... is indescribably wonderful!

Even more exciting than the previous episode!

Asakawa Reiko and Takayama Ryuji, who finally arrived at the Izu Hotel, discovered an ancient well. Through her psychic ability, Asakawa Reiko learned the cause of Sadako's death...

The ferocious painting style, suppressed expressions, distorted faces... The daylight outside gradually dissipates, and the life of the heroine Reiko Asakawa is about to come to an end——

This is so pretty!

Shinji Furuta gritted his teeth and read the episode "The Ring" almost with hatred.

He had to admit it!

This episode of "The Ring" is so perfect.

Higashinoji's storyboarding is simply art! Even though it is just a comic book, it gives people the feeling of watching a movie!

Too beautiful!

Even if I feel very angry and unwilling, I can only admit it.

The soft article sent by Shinji Furuta was severely slapped in the face, and many fans of "The Ring" even made fun of Fuji Publishing on the forum.

Looking at those ridiculing words, Furuta Shinji felt his head begin to hurt gradually, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch his head.

Sure enough, I smoothed down a lot of hair.

Looking at this handful of hair, Furuta Shinji felt distressed... He felt that he might be at risk of going bald at a young age.

But who would have thought?

"The Ring" is not a further step forward.

Instead, we have made two steps forward!

I hope next week’s “Midnight Ring” won’t surprise me like this again.

Shinji Furuta shook his head helplessly and took another look at the sales volume of "Thriller" this week.

More than 1.5 million copies...almost unchanged.

Shinji Furuta's heart sank.

Since he took over, the sales of "Thriller" have been slowly climbing every week.

And the reason why those sales volumes are soaring... is due to the fact that he poached Fuji Shumoto, the mainstay author of "Abominable Cold".

The other party did not disappoint him, and indeed brought over many readers of Urashima Publishing House's "Abominable Cold".

However, since "The Ring" began to be serialized, the rise of "Thriller" has gradually stabilized, and has even stopped rising for several weeks.

Anyone who has eyes will know who brought about this change.

I really don’t know how Urashima Publishing House is so lucky, it just randomly brought back a pillar author.

However, the more Urashima Publishing House behaves like this, the more confident Furuta Shinji becomes - "Midnight Ring" cannot be completed so easily!

As the editor-in-chief, Shinji Furuta knows how rare it is to have a mainstay work that can hold up the scene.
To be continued...
