My Cartoonist Girlfriend

Fujiwara Chika recalled and said, "I remember Miss Yuanzi was also very beautiful, right? She wasn't that old, after all, she was only 28."

"Well...how should I put it?"

Ying Lili curled her lips and said, "Age is really not a big problem, and Sister Yuanzi is indeed beautiful. But as a woman, she does have a lot of bad living habits, and she seems to have poor drinking behavior after drinking too much. Now she lives alone, and she is very career-oriented. This is also the reason why many men disagree with Sister Yuanzi on this issue during social gatherings or blind dates, and then don't continue the conversation."

Fujiwara Chika said in surprise: "Ah~~~ What era is this? Are there still people who want girls to be housewives after marriage?"

"That's normal." Shrugging, Ying Lili said, "As far as I know, most of the men that Yuan Zi met at social gatherings and blind dates are very outstanding. They are middle or senior managers in various large companies, or they are small bosses who run their own companies. They don't need their partners to go out to work, they just hope that they can take care of the family. They have different demands. As for Yuan Zi, it's one thing that she didn't find the right one, but it's mainly because she values ​​her work more and wants to make a career."

"Yeah, I understand. I understand." Fujiwara Chika nodded. "If it were me, I would also prefer to continue doing the job I want to do instead of being a housewife. What about you, Eriri? No, with your jobs, there's no need to make such a clear distinction."

Eriri smiled and glanced at Asakura Kaede who was chatting over there, and whispered, "Yeah, that's not necessary. But Chika-sister, if you meet a boy you really like in the future, maybe your thoughts will change. Everything is possible."

Fujiwara Chika said in denial: "Ah~~ Maybe."

At this time, the store clerk came in with a bunch of things, and today's script-killing event officially began.

Chapter 625 A smooth social gathering (1/2)

There are ten people in the script, and there are all kinds of characters, but the roles they play are all randomly selected.

After the roles were chosen, some were happy and some were worried.

Fujiwara Chika looked at her identity and said depressedly: "Ah~~~ Why am I a homeless person?"

Asakura Kaede and Eriri were lucky enough that their genders were not mixed up, and the characters they chose were even still a couple, which made other people jealous.

It was the first time for Yukinoshita Haruno to play this kind of game. She felt very curious. Looking at the identity she had obtained, she said, "Young boss of a startup company, this is really interesting. I have actually thought about starting my own company and giving it a try."

When Asakura Feng heard her say that, he smiled and said, "Really? If there is a chance to implement it in the future, remember to tell me. I will be happy to invest in it."

"is it?"

Yukinoshita Haruno looked at Asakura Kaede and asked, "Aren't you worried that I'll mess it up?"

Asakura Feng shrugged and said, "I'm not sure about the others, but I've heard from your sister about Miss Yang Nao's strength. I believe it will be worthwhile to invest in her."

It feels good to be trusted by others. Yukinoshita Haruno said, "I haven't decided yet. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely be the first one to come to you for funding."

Eriri raised her hand and said, "I agree too. If Sister Yangno starts a company, I want to invest in it!"

Yukinoshita Haruno naturally wouldn't mind. Just from the publication of novels and comics, as well as the income from a series of adaptations and peripherals, these two people were already living better than many people. Even for herself, the reserves in her treasury were definitely not as abundant as these two people.

Not to mention Eriri's family background, the Yukinoshita family already has connections with the Sawamura family because of the relationship between Haruno Yukino, Asakura Kaede, and Eriri, so there are opportunities for cooperation in business and other areas. If Haruno wants to start a business in the future, she can also ask Sayuri Sawamura for investment, which will definitely be very easy.

Among the younger generation in the business world, apart from the brothers and sisters of the Shinomiya family, Yang No is definitely one of the best.

I don’t know if it’s because the protagonists of today’s party are the boy and girl who are meeting each other for the first time, so the identities they chose are so dramatic.

If so, the boys would draw the identity of a young lady, and the girls would draw the identity of a male celebrity, and so on. Anyway, none of them were normal, which directly distorted the relatively normal identities that Asakura Kaede and the others had originally chosen.

It turns out that this script is quite difficult, and it also has horror elements, but as a result, a comedy element has already begun to spread before it officially starts.

But this is not bad, after all, we are out here to have fun today, so just have fun.

Then, after the store clerk acted as a guide and began to narrate the opening of the script, the game finally officially began.

Simply put, this is a reasoning story in which various characters come together to a small town full of weirdness, and then encounter a series of murders, and need to find out the real murderer hidden among the crowd.

In addition to testing everyone's ability to find clues and reasoning skills, it also tests the role-playing ability of the player who chooses the identity of the murderer.

Asakura Feng had never chosen the identity of the murderer in the past two times he played, and this time was no exception, but he didn't know whether Eriri was also innocent.

After the opening narration was completed and the first act began, Asakura Feng glanced at Yang No, who was sitting in a seat next to him with a slightly excited expression.

Suddenly I remembered that this kind of game is very advantageous to Yukinoshita Haruno, after all, this guy is extremely good at both acting and observation. If she chooses the murderer to act, no one will be able to tell.

"Well, let's not think about that for now and just play normally."

Because it was a large script with ten people, the process was relatively long. We started around two in the afternoon and played until nearly six in the evening before it finally ended.

Haruno didn't choose the murderer, and no one found out who the murderer was until the result was announced. It was actually a homeless man played by Chika Fujiwara? And Chika Fujiwara's character was not a real homeless man, but a character in the script who was supposed to have died.

Scratching his head, Asakura Feng flipped through the notebook in his hand and said, "I didn't expect that this clue was hidden so deeply that I didn't even notice it."

Fujiwara Chika proudly put her hands on her hips and said, "Hehe, I told you I'm a professional! But it's really dangerous. There were several times when I was almost discovered by Haruno."

Nodding, Yukinoshita Haruno said: "I'm still a novice, and I'm not very skilled at playing for the first time. If I play a few more times, Chika-chan probably won't be able to dodge it."

After everyone chatted for a while after the game, they paid the bill and it was time to go for dinner.

The restaurant we booked is not far from here and doesn't take too much time. It is a Japanese restaurant with a nice environment. In addition to the delicious food, there are very good private rooms here, which are suitable for gatherings and chatting.

After a lively enlightenment dinner, today's social activities came to a successful conclusion.

During the period, Asakura Feng did not try too hard to guide the communication between the two sides. After the script-killing game started in the afternoon, as the game progressed, he did not need to say much, everyone would take the initiative to communicate with each other.

This atmosphere also affected the subsequent dinner, but during the meal, everyone talked about school, majors, and hobbies.

After dinner, Asakura Feng did not arrange any follow-up activities, but simply asked a few boys to escort the three girls who lived on campus back to school, and the boys readily agreed.

If there are any who are attracted to each other, who want to develop further relationships, or who want to exchange contact information, let them solve it on the way back. Asakura Kaede has created the conditions. If these boys still can't grasp it, then there is really nothing to say.

After watching the six people leave, Asakura Feng looked at Yukinoshita Haruno and Fujiwara Chika and said, "Then, Eriri and I will take Senior Chika back. What about you, Miss Haruno? Are you going back to Chiba or the apartment here?"

"I'm not going back to Chiba today." Yang No said with a smile, "Today's social gathering was quite interesting. Asakura-kun, if there are similar activities in the future, remember to call me sister again."

"Okay, it's more lively when there are more people."

Yang Nai performed well today and did not cause any trouble. I can take her with me in the future. She is also good at livening up the atmosphere.

Chapter 626: Chika Fujiwara who has nothing to do with love (2/2)

After saying goodbye to Yukinoshita Haruno, Asakura Kaede and Eriri took Fujiwara Chika and left together, intending to send Fujiwara Chika home first.

In the car, Chika Fujiwara sat in the back seat with Eriri. Chika Fujiwara took Eriri's arm and said, "Eriri, do you think today's social gathering will be successful?"

"How do I know this?"

Ying Lili replied, "For this kind of thing, we just played a leading role. How it will develop in the future still depends on whether they like each other. But the atmosphere today is pretty good. We had a good chat while eating just now. There should be something interesting, right? What do you think, Fengjun?"

"Maybe there will be."

Asakura Feng, who was driving, nodded and said, "We have also created an opportunity for them to go back together. Now it depends on how those guys act. But what I didn't expect was that when those guys saw Senior Qianhua for the first time, their eyes almost popped out, but when it was time to leave, no one dared to ask for her contact information?"

"Oh? Me?"

Being suddenly mentioned by Asakura Kaede, Fujiwara Chika blushed and said, "Ahaha, I don't have these thoughts. Maybe in the process of playing games later, I will find that our personalities may not be suitable or something?"

"Not really." Eriri said with a smile, "In fact, it's because they already knew that Chika-sister is the eldest daughter of the Fujiwara family, so those boys backed off immediately."

Asakura Feng asked in confusion: "Huh? How did you know? You probably didn't tell me, did you?"

"Didn't you go to the bathroom halfway through Fengjun? When everyone was chatting, Yang No said that. I feel like that guy did it on purpose. He's single, and he wants to make sure that other single people don't have a chance to be single."

"Isn't it?"

After thinking about it for a while, Asakura Feng felt that Yukinoshita Haruno would not do that. Although she herself was single, she had never shown any aversion to other people dating, right?

Otherwise, that woman would have forbade her sister from dating Hikigaya Hachiman long ago, especially since she is a sister-con.

Asakura Feng thought about it and probably wanted to see what those boys would do after knowing Fujiwara Chika's identity.

If that were the case, it would make sense. It was a pity that those three guys were completely useless and didn't even dare to take any action, otherwise today's development might have been even more unexpected.

Shaking his head, Asakura Feng glanced at Fujiwara Chika who was sitting in the back through the rearview mirror and said, "Come to think of it, Senior Chika, is there anyone pursuing you at Shuchiin University?"

"Huh? Me? No." Shaking her head, Fujiwara Chika said puzzledly, "I'm already a sophomore, and no one has confessed their love to me in the past year. It's really strange. Could it be that boys' tastes have changed? What should I do? Will I be single forever?!"

Eriri twitched her lips and said, "No, I think it's probably because they don't dare to pursue you because of your status. After all, not everyone is as brave as Senior Shirogane to pursue a rich lady like Senior Kaguya. As for those boys whose families have some status, they have probably been warned by their families not to hit on you or something. After all, Sister Chika, you also told us that your parents treat you very well, and they definitely don't want you to be deceived by the boys in school so early."

"What do you mean by cheating it?" Fujiwara Chika puffed up her cheeks angrily, "I'm very smart!"

Smart... Although Fujiwara Chika's talent for languages ​​is indeed amazing and she already knows five languages, it is hard to say whether she is smart in other aspects.

Although Fujiwara Chika always says that she is a love detective, she only has some theoretical knowledge, and most of this theoretical knowledge was learned from novels, comics, and various love magazines.

Apart from these so-called theoretical knowledge, Fujiwara Chika is actually similar to the former Shinomiya Kaguya, both of them are love Muggles.

Looking at Fujiwara Chika's angry look, Eriri sighed deeply.

It’s not that there aren’t boys who are suitable for Fujiwara Chika’s personality. It’s definitely possible to find one with a good character and who can tolerate her, but it’s more difficult to find one who meets the requirements in all aspects.

In particular, Fujiwara Chika herself said that she likes boys who are hard-working.

He has to meet her own preferences, be excellent in all aspects, and meet the requirements of the Fujiwara family. It would be difficult to find someone when all these requirements are combined.

Well, but now Fujiwara Chika's life is colorful, and she has never thought about finding a boyfriend, so there is no need to worry about him.

Not to mention, there is also Kaguya Shinomiya who is studying abroad but still cares about her.

With Kaguya Shinomiya around, there's no need to worry about Fujiwara Chika having problems with her love life.

Soon, Asakura Kaede sent Fujiwara Chika back to the Fujiwara family's residence.

After refusing Fujiwara Chika's invitation to come in and sit for a while, the two of them said goodbye and turned back home.

When I got home, the cats at home were leisurely lying on the cat climbing frame or on the sofa.

Sitting on the sofa and holding Melba, Eriri looked at Asakura Kaede and said, "Kaede-kun, can we hold similar social gatherings in the future?"

"It depends on the situation. This is a spur-of-the-moment idea, and it's troublesome to think about the content of the event." After pouring two cups of tea, Asakura Feng sat down next to Eriri and said, "We are not specialized in this. We are busy with work and study. I think it's enough to hold it once like this."

"Yeah, I understand."

Ying Lili nodded in understanding. In addition to creating some opportunities for their classmates, Ying Lili also collected some useful materials through today's activities.

Although it cannot be used in the current comics, it may be useful in the future if you record it.

After counting on her fingers, Eriri said with a smile, "Come to think of it, except for the new classmates we met after coming to university, our other friends don't need activities like social gatherings."

As for Kawashima Ami, besides her studies, she is now concentrating on expanding her career and it is impossible for her to fall in love. And Kushieda Minori is now admitted to the Sports University, so it is also impossible for her to think about love.

As for the others, they all have partners.

Oh yes, there is also Kasumigaoka Utaha, but she is even more impossible to deal with. It’s good enough that she doesn’t attack Asakura Kaede.

While thinking, Eriri turned her head to look at Asakura Kaede, and in return she received a puzzled look from Asakura Kaede.

"What's going on here?"

"It's nothing."

Shaking her head, Eriri rubbed against Asakura Kaede's shoulder and said, "Kaede-kun, go take a shower? After that I have to go paint."

Chapter 627 is going to be animated (1/2)

Sunday, morning.

As soon as she arrived here, Kasumigaoka Utaha saw Eriri looking serious.

Besides that, Asakura Kaede was not at home either, and no one knew where she had gone.

Pinching Eriri's cheeks, Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with your relationship with Asakura-kun? Let me make it clear first, I didn't do anything."

"Tsk, of course that's not the case!"

Curling her lips, Ying Lili said unhappily, "Even if the sky falls, the relationship between Feng Jun and I will not be affected, so don't think of taking advantage of the opportunity. It's something else! My editor just called me and said that the comics can be animated, and asked me to go over next week to discuss it and see if there is an animation company that I like."

"Isn't this a good thing?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Eriri's expression and asked curiously, "Other people who draw comics look forward to their works being published as single volumes and being animated every day, but why do you look so different when it comes to you?"

"It's mainly because of the length, the length!"

Waving her hands, Eriri said, "Look, whether it's your Love Metronome or Kaede-kun's Soharu, they're either finished or almost ten volumes have been released before they were animated. I don't have much space here. Although it's enough to make a 12-episode season or a half-year animation, my goal is a long-form animation! A mere half-year animation is not enough!"

"Is that why?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha had never thought of this aspect, but now that she thinks about it, she can understand it. After all, Eriri is a very ambitious person. According to her, the manga is still more than halfway through, and if it is animated after about two-thirds of it is completed, it is entirely possible to start the animation finale right after the manga is finished.

But if we start to animate it now, considering the progress of animation production, a lot of time will definitely have to be left between each season.

If the comic drawn by Eriri is a super long one, the production team can arrange an original chapter to extend the length. But Kasumigaoka Utaha knows that Eriri will never do that.

"So, can't you just discuss this matter with the editor? Is it necessary to be so worried?"

"Of course I know. We came here thinking that we would consider the animation after another half a year, and then broadcast it next year. In this way, the progress of my comics can barely keep up with the progress of the animation, and the production of the next season can be announced directly after one season is broadcast. It's just that the author of a work that was originally scheduled to be animated can't continue drawing due to some messy reasons, so the original animation has been delayed, and the editor gave me the spot. After all, Jump can't just rely on the old long-form animation, it needs fresh blood, and I'm the only one who can be lined up at the moment."

"So this is ah."

Nodding, Kasumigaoka Utaha understood Eriri's troubles, but it couldn't be considered a trouble, it was just a small problem.
