My Cartoonist Girlfriend

Machida Yuanzi looked at the little leopard cat and said with envy, "Ah, this is the first time I've seen such a well-behaved kitten, except for the three cats at Xiaofeng and Eriri's house. I asked a few friends who have cats, and their cats are not cheap, but their destructive power is amazing, and they are also very lively. I can't hold them for so long at once. By the way, Shiyu, how much did you pay for this leopard cat?"

"Why, you want to raise one too?"

Machida Yuanzi nodded: "Yeah, I kind of miss it. After all, I live alone now, and my home is quite lonely. Now that I see you have a cat, I also want to have a pet. When you go to the pet store to choose a pet, can you introduce it to me?"

Seeing this, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Eriri.

Ying Lili smiled and replied, "Of course I can introduce you to one. I just don't know what kind of pet you want, Sister Yuanzi. That store has both common and expensive pets. Although Shiyu's leopard cat is not top-notch, its price is not cheap either."

Then, Kasumigaoka Utaha told Machida Sonoko about the price of Alice, and Machida Sonoko shuddered when she heard it.

"16 yen? Is it that expensive?"

Looking at the cat that returned to Kasumigaoka Utaha's arms, Machida Sonoko swallowed and said, "Isn't this the best?"

"Of course, it is said that she is still a little short of the competition level, but I don't care about those things. The main thing is that this little guy is very pleasing to my eye, and I fell in love with her at once." As she spoke, Kasumigaoka Utaha lowered her head to look at Alice, and the little guy also looked at her in tacit understanding, and came over to rub against her.

Seeing this scene, Machida Yuanzi felt a little itchy: "Well... I'll go take a look when the time comes. It doesn't have to be too expensive. It would be good if I can find something I like. Besides, I've never had a pet before."

Ying Lili thought for a moment and suggested with a smile: "Sister Yuanzi, there are actually some unique pets there. You can also take a look, such as miniature pigs. We saw them when we went there the day before yesterday. They were very cute!"

Machida Yuanzi twitched her lips and said, "Uh... forget it. I'll just choose ordinary cats and dogs."

She knew about the little pigs, and they were indeed very cute, but pet pigs were not something she considered from the beginning.

"So what kind do you want? A cute one? Or a bigger dog?" Kasumigaoka Utaha said while petting a cat. "That store has a wide variety of cats and dogs. When I went there, there were all kinds of cats, short-haired and long-haired, as well as popular ones like Ragdoll cats. As for dogs, I didn't see any adult dogs, mostly small dogs or puppies. Oh, by the way, that store also has an alpaca, but it's not for sale."

"Alpaca..."

Machida Sonoko is now curious about the store because they even have alpacas.

"Shiyu, if you have time these two days, take me to see it!"

Regardless of whether you can find the pet you like or not, it’s always worth going to take a look.

Today is New Year's Eve, I wish you a Happy New Year in advance, and I hope everyone will enjoy their New Year's Eve dinner~~~~

Chapter 530 Overseas Release (2/2)

After more than ten minutes, someone from the film and television company came. Kasumigaoka Utaha left the cat to Eriri to take care of, and took the printed draft with Machida Sonoko to another meeting room.

Looking at the little guy curled up in her arms, bewildered as to why his owner suddenly left, Ying Lili said with a smile: "Hey, your mother has to go out to be busy now, so let me take care of you~~ Well, let me see, she should have prepared some snacks for you."

Half an hour later, Asakura Kaede came out of the meeting room after finishing her business and saw Eriri alone in the editorial office, playing with her mobile phone.

As for the cat, Eriri put it back into the cat bag and it was lying there resting.

He came over and sat down next to Eriri, and asked Asakura Feng, "Senior went to discuss work?"

"Yeah." Nodding, Ying Lili raised her head and said, "The people from the film and television company are here. They have been in the meeting room for half an hour."

"It's been half an hour. It will probably take a while."

Asakura Feng was not in a hurry. He looked at the cat in the cat bag and said, "How about it, when are we going back?"

"Wait a moment, wait for Shiyu to come out." Ying Lili said, "It's still early now, let's ask her later. If she doesn't want to go home, call her, Sister Yuanzi and Editor Nakajima, and let's find a place to eat?"

"Sure, wait until the seniors are done and ask them."

As he spoke, Asakura looked at Editor Nakajima who had just returned from the bathroom, "Editor Nakajima, do you have time?"

"Hahaha, if there's a place for a dinner party, of course I have time!" Sitting down, Editor Nakajima said with a smile, "I've been busy with your overseas distribution these days, and you acted like a hands-off boss, throwing everything to me and only showed up today when it was almost done. I really have to treat you."

Shrugging, Asakura Feng said nonchalantly: "It was already agreed upon, and it's not like the library doesn't make money. I just need to write good novels. I'm not good at other things."

Of course, Editor Nakajima was just saying that. Asakura Kaede really didn't need to worry about publishing, as long as he could maintain the quality of the novel. He was called here today just to discuss the subsequent overseas distribution and the overseas copyright of the animation version, and to confirm the possible appearance on the TV show in the future.

After all, Editor Nakajima knows that Asakura Kaede's Chinese is very good. The next animation will be broadcast in China, and Bunko plans to let Asakura Kaede record some videos at that time to make his presence felt.

Nowadays, it is very common for light novel authors to appear on online programs or offline activities, but people like Asakura Kaede, who basically only show up on Twitter all year round, are definitely rare. The library has racked its brains to get him to show up more often.

This time, Asakura Feng finally agreed and said that he could try to participate in a series of activities after graduation.

Editor Nakajima and the editor-in-chief naturally have no problem with this. Even if Asakura Kaede is admitted to Waseda University, the subsequent effect will be even greater.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, Kasumigaoka Utaha was finally done. When she came out, there was no expression of depression or loss on her face. It seems that the film and television company should be quite satisfied with the tone of the script set by Kasumigaoka Utaha.

After saying goodbye to the film and television company and returning to the editorial office, Eriri waved to Kasumigaoka Shiyu. "We are going to go out for dinner together. Shiyu, are you free?"

“I have time.”

Nodding, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at the cat bag placed aside, "But I have to send this little guy back first. Have you booked a restaurant? If so, let me know, and I'll come and meet you after I send the cat home."

"I found it!" Ying Lili handed over the phone and said, "It's a restaurant specializing in seafood!"

After noting down the restaurant information on her phone, Kasumigaoka Utaha said, "Okay, it's almost time, let's go. I'm a little hungry."

In the evening, after a happy dinner, Asakura Kaede and Eriri returned home.

Eriri naturally remembered what editor Nakajima said about the overseas release during dinner. After returning and changing her clothes, she looked at Asakura Kaede and said, "Kaede-kun, when will the overseas edition be released?"

"It's too early. We have to wait until the end of the year or the beginning of next year." Asakura Feng stretched and sat on the sofa, saying, "This kind of thing can't be rushed. Just take your time. Anyway, there will be no problems. It's just a matter of spending more time. In addition, I will check the translation again myself."

Although it is possible to do all the Chinese translations by herself, it is too time-consuming, so Asakura decided to hand over the translation to the library and check it herself later. As a publishing house with experience in overseas distribution, Asakura does not think that Fuzugawa Library will fail in this regard.

"Oh~~~ That's great, it's being released overseas." Eriri hugged Asakura Kaede's arm and said, "I also want to publish an overseas version of the book, but it may take a lot longer than your book, Kaede-kun, since this is already the second series."

"After all, I've been in the industry longer than you, it's normal."

Gently pinching Eriri's cheek, Asakura said, "Given the popularity of your comics and the sales of your single volumes, overseas distribution is a foregone conclusion. It should be carried out simultaneously with your animation. Shueisha is still stronger in this regard."

There is a clear gap in the size of Buseisha compared to that of Shueisha, but it also has its own advantages.

Eriri wasn't too disappointed, she knew that these things would be her turn next, and all she had to do was draw the comics well.

Taking a deep breath, Eriri clenched her fists, stood up and said, "Okay, let's get to work!"

"As for work, there's no rush."

Pulling Eriri who was about to start working, Asakura Feng said with a smile, "Don't forget, you still have some homework to do. Finish your homework first, and then think about painting."

“Ah~~~~”

Eriri's little face fell instantly, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only nod and start doing her homework under the guidance of Asakura Kaede.

As the days passed, the weather gradually became warmer.

On Asakura Kaede's side, everyone began to focus on studying, including Kawashima Ami, who reduced her workload and studied hard every day.

As for μ's, I haven't contacted Asakura Kaede for nearly half a month. I only repost and promote them online when they release new songs.

The girls are now on the right track and can do it all on their own.

On such a sunny afternoon, perfect for studying, Honoka called.

Happy New Year everyone! We will take a day off on the first day of the Lunar New Year and resume updating tomorrow! ! ! ! !

One hundred words, one ....

Chapter 531 The next live (1/2)

Asakura Kaede, who was tutoring Eriri in math, saw the incoming call and pressed the answer button in surprise.

"Honoka, how come you have time to call me?"

On the other end of the line, Honoka's energetic voice came: "Brother Feng! What are you busy with?"

"I'm holding a study session in the club."

That being said, after he started making the call, everyone else in the club looked at him. After all, it was Honoka calling, and it might be about something related to μ's.

Now, apart from studying, the only thing that people pay more attention to is μ's.

Hearing that there was a study session, Honoka asked nervously, "Um...Isn't it disturbing everyone?"

"Don't worry." Asakura Feng shook his head and said, "It's only been a short while since we started, and we haven't gotten into the groove yet. Tell me, what's the matter with the call? Are you too tired from training and want to get some delicious food?"

"Hehehe, I haven't thought about that, but if Brother Feng agrees, I would be happy to come!" Honoka was very greedy for the sumptuous meal at Asakura Feng's house.

Honoka smiled innocently, but she didn't forget her business: "Brother Feng, Brother Feng! Our next performance has been decided! Together with A-RISE, in their school!"

"Oh? In UTX? That would be a formal face-to-face confrontation."

Hearing this, Asakura Feng was also quite interested. She wondered how Kirara Tsubasa was preparing at A-RISE. You know, μ's ranking has already rushed to the first tier, which means it is within the top ten.

Even the other school idol groups that were originally in the top ten did not dare to relax in the face of such an aggressive μ's. With μ's terrifying efficiency, they would be surpassed by the opponent if they were not careful.

Although the atmosphere among the school idols has become particularly tense, from the perspective of the audience and fans, this is a very good situation. Driven by μ's and A-RISE, many school idols who used to release videos and songs once a month or half a month have become more active now, and the overall activity level is much higher than the first session last year.

And all this is due to the emergence of μ's.

Now the organizers are paying more attention to μ's. In addition, they have learned that the second lady of the Fujiwara family is related to μ's, which has made the organizers' original optimism about μ's turn into great importance.

For example, the performance with A-RISE at UTX was approved without a second thought after receiving A-RISE's application. This is also very beneficial for the competition. One is the previous champion and the other is a new dark horse. If they broadcast it online, it will definitely increase the popularity.

"So, when exactly does the live show start? How are your preparations going?"

"Ten days later! It will be held in ten days!" Honoka said excitedly, "As for the songs, we are still preparing. Originally, Maki already had a song that was almost completely written, but after receiving the invitation from A-RISE, she directly chose to re-compose it, and everyone also participated! Hehe, as for the theme, I will keep it secret for now! Brother Feng, you must come and see it when the time comes!"

"Well, don't worry, we will definitely be there for such an important live."

I chatted with Honoka about the training these days, but soon because of Umi's call, Honoka had to end the call today.

Putting down his phone, Asakura Feng looked at everyone and said, "You know everything, right? In ten days, we will have another live show to watch."

"It's at UTX," Uchimaki Subaru said curiously, "It's an all-girls school. Can we go there?"

Shrugging, Asakura Feng said, "You should be able to get in, but we'll see how it works out. With UTX's financial resources, in addition to the auditorium around the stage, there are also many large electronic screens for live broadcasts. It will also be broadcast online, so you can definitely see it if you want."

“But if it’s live, it’s still best to watch it in person.”

Ever since he saw μ's live in Akihabara, Subaru Uchimaki has been looking forward to the next live.

Fortunately, his girlfriend, Mizuki Usami, is also a fan of μ's, so she wasn't too angry about Uchimaki Subaru's expectations.

If this were some stingier girls, they would probably make a scene, right? After all, the nine members of μ's are all extremely outstanding beauties.

Looking at everyone, Asakura Feng smiled and said, "It's okay to go to the live show, but there is a mock exam next week. If you don't do well in the exam, be more self-disciplined and don't go to the live show. Can you do it?"

In Asakura Kaede's opinion, although the learning method of tension and relaxation is very good, it is also based on the premise that one's grades are not bad. If you don't do well in the exam, you are not qualified to say that you have tension and relaxation. The key is to relax appropriately and seize the time to study.

After hearing what Asakura Kaede said, everyone, including Eriri, showed an embarrassed expression.

Indeed, there will be a mock exam next week. As students preparing for college entrance exams, they attach great importance to the mock exam, which represents their current level and allows them to see how much gap there is between them and their favorite schools.

Live is indeed important, but it is better to pass the exam first.

Suddenly, Kelei pulled Asakura Kaede's sleeve, looked at him and said, "Senior, do I want to see the results too?"

"Isn't this natural?" Patting Klett's little head, Asakura Feng said with a smile, "Didn't you say you wanted to get into a good university? Then study hard and don't always go to play next door, okay?"

Although the Far East Magic Club next door didn't appear many times, Takanashi Rikka and the others had indeed been making trouble during this period. Klett was curious about everything, so she would often sneak over to play.

"Forehead......"

There was no other way. Although she could go, it would not be fun at all if she went alone. But Leiter could only agree, took out the textbook from her schoolbag, and started reading obediently.

..........

On Friday night, after class, Utaha Kasumigaoka returned to the apartment with her cat, and came to Asakura Kaede's house for dinner, and then let Alice get to know their three little ones.

Camilla and the others already understood that Alice was Kasumigaoka Utaha's cat and was just a guest, so they did not show any rejection.

In fact, because Alice is still a kitten, Camilla, as a mother, is particularly attentive when treating Alice. Usually after dinner, she would lie on the cat climbing frame and yawn by herself, but now she is following the little ones and staring at them.

After seeing this scene, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt a lot more relieved. She let Alice go and play, while she started chatting with Eriri.
