Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?.

Chapter 162 What kind of rain showers? He wants to make the fans cry like rain!
Those who understand music can hear it.

The instrument used in this piece is actually the Shakuhachi, a classical traditional instrument introduced to Japan during the Tang and Song dynasties. The timbre is desolate and vast, and it can also express an ethereal and tranquil mood.

But who has time to pay attention to the music at this time? It can only serve as background sound to set off the program.

All comic fans are completely attracted by the pictures of the comics.

[Mom] came around the corner.

But her eyes were dull, without any emotion: "Did that man come back?"

Izumi Shinichi couldn't believe it: "Mom, is that you?"

"Shinichi! No! No!" Xiaoyou reminded hurriedly.

“What’s going on? Why is it parasitic on my hand?” [Mom] looked at Xiao You and said without any emotion, not even the slightest bit of surprise that a human should have.

"That guy has invaded your mother's head!" Xiao You made a quick judgment.

Quan Xin was sweating profusely. He didn't want to listen to Xiao You's warning. He just looked at his mother: "I wanted to tell you about the right hand earlier, but I was afraid of scaring you..."

He explained in panic, but he blocked the knife in front of Xiaoyou, obviously afraid that Xiaoyou would attack his mother. He even turned sideways in front of the enemy to prevent Xiaoyou from facing the parasitic beast directly.

"Shinichi, put the knife away!" Xiaoyou was anxious.

It knows that the person on the other side is an enemy who may attack at any time, not its mother!

"Shut up! It's strange that my right hand can speak..." Shinichi still tried to explain to his mother.

But [Mom] said something she shouldn't have known: "Right hand? You're unlucky! If you don't occupy the brain, you will be controlled by humans."

"Ouch..." Shinichi gritted his teeth, "Don't joke with me..."

Xiaoyou reminded him loudly: "Shinichi! Wake up quickly, that's a monster! Your mother has already..."

"Shut up! Shut up! Aren't you a monster yourself?!" Shinichi angrily slashed his right arm with his left knife, resolutely and ruthlessly, blood flowed out, "If you say anything again, I'll cut off your hand!"

Xiao You didn't dare to speak easily anymore.

Izumi Shinichi looked at [Mom’s] right hand that was touching the wall, the scar was still so conspicuous.

At this moment, he was in tears.

"Mom... do you remember? The burn on your hand..."

"Every time I see that scar, I feel very concerned..."

"I must apologize to my mother..."

However, the face of [Mom] that he was looking at with tearful eyes was split apart!
The parasitic beast turns into a sharp blade of muscle to attack!

In an instant, Izumi Shinichi's heart was pierced.

The knife in his left hand fell, and he fell in a pool of blood with tears in his eyes.

[Mom] left with a cold remark and left.

"The human part dies immediately, and you only have a few minutes to live."

This sentence is said to Xiao You, who is of the same kind.

……

Huh——after seeing this, many comic fans finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The plot is too tense.

Even though Izumi Shinichi kept talking to [Mom], the tense rhythm never stopped.

[Mother] has turned into a monster, but her body is still that of a mother.

"Shinichi is so miserable..." Many female readers found their eyes blurred with tears.

Male comic fans are better off, but they also feel heavy-hearted, with a pain in their hearts that is difficult to let go.

It was at this time that many comic fans noticed that sad music was lingering around them.

I was browsing the comic book Parasyte on the web, and when I came to the page opposite Izumi Shinichi and [Mother], a sad sound began to sound quietly. "This music..."

Many comic fans clicked on the small play prompt box, which showed the name and author of the song:
["Manatsu No Tong Rain", composed by: Oda Shingo, performed by: Hundred Years of Crystal Snow]

Hey? This song is really suitable for the occasion.

Listening to it, a deep sadness lingers in my heart.

Many comic fans did not continue to flip through the pages, but instead clicked their mouse to go back dozens of pages.

In this song, they revisited Izumi Shinichi's reunion with his [mother].

This time, it’s a new feeling.

Some comic fans rubbed their eyes, unwilling to let the tears fall.

"Teacher Oda, how could you personally depict such a tragic plot and even match it with such a sad song!"

"How can this be called "Manatsu no Misaki Ame"?! It's just trying to make the fans cry!"

"Teacher Oda Shingo, you are so mean!"
-
Bookstores everywhere are purchasing additional copies of this issue of "Jump".

Another store owner lamented, "What's going on? Oda Shingo's works always need to be reprinted? Not only the single volumes, but also the prize figurines?"

"Many comic fans seem to be reminded by their friends to buy it."

“And he even specifically asked if there was any Parasyte.”

The new issue of "Jump" had impressive sales, and even the main publication department of Qun-Ei-Sha was alarmed.

"Sales increased by 17% that day! This hasn't happened since 2000!"

"Last week's total weekly sales also increased for the first time! This hasn't happened in a few years, right?"

"I bought them all for Parasyte! It brought in a lot of new customers for our magazine."

In the basement office, the editors were talking quietly.

They didn't dare let Hayato Hyakki hear it.

"Comic fans are already waiting in bookstores early in the morning." There is a marketing editor who is very clear about the sales situation.

Although there weren't many people and there was no queue, the shop owners were well aware of the influence of Oda Shingo's works.

The single volume of One Punch Man is always placed on the popular bookshelf, in the most conspicuous position at the entrance of the store. The related prize figures of the Bald Cape Man are also placed together.

As for why there is only the bald caped man, it’s because the prize figures of Fubuki and Tornado were sold out long ago.

Although the sales of most male figures on the market are average except for a few hot-selling ones, the Saitama one is about to be sold out.

Because there were so many people asking about it, they even put up a sign saying, "One Punch Man prize replica is in production, please scan the QR code to make an appointment."
When the editors of this magazine heard about the market situation, they looked at each other in bewilderment.

One editor speculated: "Will this issue of "Jump" really let "Parasyte" take first place?"

"No, no, you have to believe in Mr. Adachi! Notouch also reached the exciting Koshien part. There's no way it can lose to Parasyte."

"Minister Baigui is in the office. Could he not be aware of the situation?"

"Maybe, but I think... he should be more concerned than us and should have known it a long time ago..."

The editor's estimate was correct.

In his office, Hayato Hyakki had already poked holes in the table with his pen.

He looked at the data on the internal reports and the feedback from various directly-controlled stores on Oda Shingo's works, and he gritted his teeth.

Why would such a disobedient guy appear?
Why do some people dare to challenge my position of having the final say?
Why can someone so young become a pillar of the cartoonist industry?

This Oda Shingo!

When he was here and wanted to stab a little man to death, Gotada Takeshi called.
