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

   Chapter 432 Manifestation

   "What? Could it be that your plan is worth 100 million?" Redsaka Zhuyin sneered after hearing his words.

   "It's the copyright of "Chainsaw Man" plus that project."

   Kato Yusuke first corrected her statement, and then affirmed: "As for that plan, at least the final market size will not be less than 30 billion."

  Clap, there was a sound of something falling to the ground.

   The two of them looked at them subconsciously, and saw the middle-aged man behind the bar smiling embarrassedly, throwing the sushi he picked up into the trash can and starting to wash his hands.

   "I said boy."

   Akizaka Zhuyin sighed with a troublesome look on his face: "If you are sick or have a fever, go to the hospital. My place is not like that, and I don't know how to take care of people."

After   , she turned from the chair, leaning forward, holding Yusuke's head with both hands, and pressing her forehead on his forehead.

   "...what are you doing, isn't this also a fever?"

   When she murmured and stepped back, a faint smell of alcohol drifted into Kato Yusuke's nose, which was also mixed with the fragrance of a little cosmetic.

   Kato Yusuke looked at her face, the impatient face was filled with a flush of drinking, her skin was smooth and translucent, and she looked younger than before.

   "I don't joke much."

   Akizaka Akane didn't even straighten her body, so she put her right elbow on the bar and raised her legs.

   The hem of the soft skirt was lifted up, revealing the slender legs wrapped in black silk, the right foot pressed on it swayed slightly, and the five toes were gathered together, looming under the hazy black veil.

   "I'm not joking, that's just drawing a cake for me? The question is, even if you lie, you still need to talk about basic logic, right?"

   Kato Yusuke picked up the sea urchin sushi with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.

"I don't need to lie to you about this kind of thing, and a phenomenal work cannot be created by following logic. Whether it can achieve such a large scale and influence depends on your future operations. "

  The fresh sea urchin seems to be beating in the mouth, without any fishy smell.

   Seeing that he always insisted on this statement, Akizaka Zhuyin lowered his shoulders as if giving up, and said helplessly:

   "Instead of talking about that unshadowed project, I think it's better to talk about "Chainsaw Man" and try to convince me?"

   "What to say... You like this work, don't you? Compared with money, it is more in line with your aesthetics and pursuit of challenge than to make this interesting work rejuvenate in your own hands?"

   "Hoo~ I even used the pretentious word "aesthetics", are you flattering me? Or are you brainwashing me? "

   "I'm just telling the truth... Also, if you can draw doujinshi with me and don't make trouble, I can try to flatter you."

"Ah ha ha ha ha ha-"

   Redsaka Zhuyin laughed out loud, and denied it without hesitation: "No, don't think about that."

   She said and took a sip of wine, as if it was very interesting, then glanced at Kato Yusuke's untouched glass and asked, "Why don't you drink it?"

   Kato Yusuke followed her gaze and responded calmly: "It's not too late for me to drink after we finish talking."

   "Huh? You're so annoying, come over and listen to me." Redsaka Zhuyin hooked his fingers, motioning him to come closer, as if he had something to say.

   Kato Yusuke has no doubt about him, after all, the person in front of him is an elusive person who cannot be measured by common sense, so he tilted his face slightly and attached his ear.

   The corners of Kosaka Zhuyin's mouth rose slightly, he stretched out his right hand to pick up his glass, and poured the wine into his mouth in one gulp, holding it in his mouth.

   Then she hugged Yusuke's head again, and before he could react, she directly put her red lips wet with wine on his mouth, and passed the wine in her mouth.

  —Goooo, coo, coo.

   The middle-aged man who saw this scene from the corner of his eye twitched his eyelids twice, then immediately lowered his eyes, looked at his nose and heart, turned a blind eye to all this, turned a deaf ear, and just handled the roasted conger eel in his hands with peace of mind.

   lasted about three or four seconds.

   "Puha." Aksaka Akane slowly loosened her lips and stepped back, "...Don't be stupid, how can you talk to me without drinking?"

   Kato Yusuke glanced at her with a sloppy expression, rubbed his right thumb on his lips casually, and wiped off the wine and lipstick on it.

   "Why, Auntie wants it?"

   Such actions and tone are a little casual and rude, but also a little uninhibited and sexy, and a little seductive.

   Hongsaka Zhuyin narrowed her eyes slightly to look at him, a splendid brilliance flickered in it, and then she pursed her lips, and said lazily: "Pay attention to your words, boy."

   Kato Yusuke ignored her, his eyes swept across the plumpness of her chest and the thighs under her skirt, her sloppy eyes seemed to be aggressive.

   The yellow light shone on the top of his head, illuminating his face flickering. Slightly raised eyebrows, long eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and a curvy jawline.

   A black Off-White short sleeve is worn on him, which outlines a smooth and healthy arc, which vaguely brings out the perfect figure under the clothes.

   Redsaka Zhuyin tutted inwardly, and suddenly thought of his sturdyness, and a hint of charm could not help but emerge from his expression.

   "Is the wine just now delicious?"

   "The wine is good, but unfortunately it smells like an uncle."

  —Pfft.

   "Cough...cough, sorry, the grilled conger eel for the two of you is ready."

   The middle-aged man behind the bar coughed twice, put the dish he just prepared in front of them, and continued to work on the next dish.

  The eel cut into small pieces is evenly arranged on the plate, and the ingredients are sea salt, lemon, mustard, plum sauce, and yuzu pepper.

   Kato Yusuke picked up his chopsticks, took a small piece of eel and dipped it in salt, then put it into his mouth, and chewed it with a "kick".

  The skin of the grilled conger eel is very crisp, the meat is very soft, and there is a hint of burnt aroma in it, just garnished with salt, it is very delicious.

   Akizaka Shuin also took a piece of eel and dipped it in sweet and sour plum sauce, and after swallowing the food, he started talking.

   "Then, let's get down to business. Let's not mention your plan. The reasons you have given so far cannot convince me. Either quote a reasonable price or come up with something more convincing."

   "What do you want to see?"

"You are the one who sells the copyright right now, so this is something you need to consider... Even so, you need to report the most basic plot direction to me first, and I will judge whether there will be a collapse in the future. "

   Kato Yusuke thought for a while, and decided to come up with some dry goods, so he was about to speak, but Akizaka Zhuyin suddenly made a stop gesture.

   "Wait a minute, you don't want to just dictate?"

"if not?"

   "For us comic writers, storyboards are more convincing than words? So if you have trouble, please draw them later."

   "There are at least 80 more chapters left between now and the end, and it is impossible to finish the painting."

   "Who told you to finish the painting? You just need to draw the key parts and explain it to me again." Kasaka Zhuyin's face was taken for granted, with a proud and lazy expression.

   Kato Yusuke thought for a while, and finally agreed.

   After that, the two of them ate dinner attentively and didn't say any surprising words, which made the middle-aged man behind the bar feel a lot more at ease, and his craftsmanship continued to improve.

  From bamboo shoot tempura sprinkled with katsuobushi, to grilled cod fish marinated in miso for three days in advance, and tuna sushi marinated in soy sauce…

   A set of "Omakase" cooking dishes is very delicious, and the ingredients are also very fresh, which satisfies the appetite of two people.

   After the two of them had no intention of adding more dishes, the middle-aged man quickly packed up his kitchen utensils and left the apartment directly, as if he was worried about hearing any more rumors.

  After eating and drinking.

   Akizaka Akane said follow me, and then led Kato Yusuke to a certain room.

  The two walked through the simple and spacious living room together and came to a quiet quiet room, or studio.

   Everything in the room is readily available.

  From a cartoonist's desk, to a variety of brushes and tools, mannequins for drawing reference, to a cabinet with many manga and manga magazines, etc... It has a very cartoonist's studio feel.

   In contrast, the configuration in Kato Yusuke's apartment is extremely simple.

   However, being able to own a luxurious penthouse in a location where the house price is over 100 million in Ariake is not something that ordinary people can do, so it is meaningless to compare.

   "Okay, in short, you can draw some key storyboards in chronological order. I'll take a break and call me when I'm done drawing." Kasaka Zhuyin said, and lay down on the sofa beside the desk.

   Kato Yusuke sat down on the armless office chair according to her instructions, and his eyes were involuntarily attracted by the full-length mirror beside him, so he asked casually.

   "Why put a mirror here?"

   "What else is there, of course it's for action reference."

   "Action reference?"

   "That's right, after all, sometimes the movements made by mannequins are not natural enough, so you need to refer to reality, although I don't use them much now."

   "So you're all posing in front of the mirror yourself?"

   "Well, what's the problem?"

"nothing."

   Akizaka Akane was a little quiet, then picked up the pillow beside him and threw it at him.

   "...Give me a good storyboard and don't imagine it there."

  's voice suddenly became a little low, mixed with a little annoyance.

   Kato Yusuke put the next pillow behind his waist without saying much. After adjusting the height of the seat, he started to work...

   With the methodical rustling of the pen, time passed safely.

   Akizaka Zhuyin's eyes were half-open and half-closed, looking at him one after another, her consciousness gradually becoming blurred.

   After about forty minutes passed, Akane Kosaka, who was sleeping on the sofa, was shaken up.

   "Miss Takasaka."

   "…Well, what's the matter?"

   "I've drawn the storyboard, do you want to see it now?"

   "...Hooah... Then bring it here."

   Kato Yusuke handed her a stack of sketches in his hand, almost a dozen in number.

   Kasaka Zhuyin, who took over the sketch, didn't take it seriously, and slowly sat up from the sofa, yawning and asking, "...Well, how long have I slept?"

   "In less than an hour."

   "So... come and sit next to me and explain to me."

   Kato Yusuke didn't refuse, so he moved from the office chair to the sofa.

   "Hooah..."

   As if very sleepy, Kasaka Akane yawned again, then slowly looked at the drawing in her hand, and then let out a whimper.

   "...Huh? You drew the original? Didn't you tell me to draw the storyboard?"

   "This is the storyboard, there are no lines and no lines on it." Kato Yusuke said lightly, but it made Kosaka Akane sober a lot, and then he began to observe carefully.

   The "mirror draft" in front of me has a complete composition, neat structure, and extremely smooth lines, which is obviously a cohesive effect.

  The style of the sketch is simple, but it is by no means simple, and there are not many details that should be there. Whether it is the emotions of the characters or the texture of the scenery, they are clearly expressed.

   Except for the lack of drawing lines and words, it is basically the same as the original manuscript of the finished product, and the skill is quite scary.

   Take the first picture in hand, Machima in the picture is standing on the stone road of the shrine, with two rows of kneeling prisoners on both sides, as if holding some kind of ceremony.

   Even without a single line, you can feel the serious atmosphere conveyed inside.

   Next is the storyboard of the fighting part.

  Denji riding a shark and fighting the bomb demon in the raging typhoon. The picture is as absurd and bizarre as a B-grade movie, but it is very interesting.

   Akisaka Zhuyin's eyes were focused and interested, and he began to read more quickly until the last page...

   It is as if the world painting is opening up in front of you.

  In the boundless universe, the astronaut whose body was cut in half up and down put his hands together and worshipped the lower half of his body, which was lying on the ground. At the end of the picture, there is a demon coming out of the darkness.

  The tense picture even has a hint of faith, which makes one's pupils shrink subconsciously.

   Akizaka Zhuyin licked his lips, the rest of the sleepiness in his mind had long since disappeared, and the whole person fell into a state of excitement, then looked up at the clock on his desk, and asked somewhat incredulously:

   "All of these...you drew them within an hour??"

"Um."

   Kato Yusuke nodded, his voice very calm, but hearing Kasaka Zhuyin's ears made her unable to let go for a long time, and immediately asked in a low voice.

   "Your painting skills have improved again...?"

   The voice was slightly unsettled.

   Faced with this question, Yusuke pondered for a while, and his mind stopped briefly on the painting skills that he had upgraded to a master level before responding.

"more or less."

  …
