Chapter 139. The hero setting is not good? (4200 words)(2/2)
Editor-in-chief Urashima didn't hesitate when he received the draft of the storyboard, and simply opened it.
"The Winner Is Right"...? This name doesn't sound like a horror comic like "The Ring".
He groaned and continued to turn to the back.
Tsubokura is a young man who is timid by nature.
He is clumsy and can't do anything well.
The owner of the car wash shop often scolded him and used physical violence against him.
Faced with such a high-pressure life, Tsubokura finally couldn't help it. He raised his eyes coldly, looked at the shop owner who was nodding and bowing to the customers, and said softly: "I will definitely kill you."
But Tsubokura had no idea that this incident would lead to him being imprisoned—the owner of the car wash shop really died.
Taking this as an opportunity, Editor-in-Chief Urashima also saw the appearance of Machiko Dai, the heroine who is a lawyer.
Machiko Dai was Tsubokura's defense lawyer, but she suffered a tragic defeat in court. She was extremely anxious when she saw her innocent client being sent to prison and sentenced to ten years in prison.
"Please don't give up, I will definitely acquit you!" Machiko Dai looked at Tsubokura in the prison with her eyes full of passion.
She is a lawyer with a strong sense of justice, firmly believes in the truth, and has the passion of a young person.
But she also knew that it was basically impossible to overturn a case that had already been decided by the court. Not to mention that Tsubokura had already surrendered and pleaded guilty. She could not think of any way to help him win this case.
In this desperate situation, under the prompts of her female senior, Junie Sawachi, she decided to entrust the help of Kensuke Komemon, a lawyer who had maintained an undefeated record of Miki Law Firm a year ago.
The heroine who just suffered a defeat, the lawyer with a record of undefeated victories?
This quickly gave the story a sense of survival from a desperate situation.
More importantly, Higashinoji renders the atmosphere very well.
Although the story seems serious, it is still very light-hearted overall.
There is even a clip of the interaction between Machiko Dai and a male extra in the car who refuses to give up his position and talks nonsense.
"I want to say, can you give up your seat to this old man? The old man next to me is already old." Machiko Dai blushed and said to the male costar in front of her.
"So?" The male sidekick raised his head.
"Don't you think it's natural for those with stronger physical strength to give way to those with weaker physical strength?"
"Yes, I agree." The male sidekick nodded in agreement with Machiko's words, but he quickly changed the subject: "But you have physical strength when you are young, and you don't have physical strength when you get older. Is it really appropriate to make a generalization like this?"
ah?
Machiko Dai looked puzzled.
"For example, I am 38 years old now, but I also have the possibility of suffering from severe heart disease, right?"
"Hey? I'm sorry." Machiko Dai was suppressed by the other party's very reasonable attitude and apologized in a low voice. Then she was a little strange: "Do you have a heart disease?"
"No."
"Ah?" Dai Machiko's face was really baffled.
No, you didn't. Why do you still talk so much and are so confident?
She was just about to get angry, but was interrupted by the other party's words.
"Although the old man next to you looks 60 years old, he carries a fitness bag with him. Judging from the size of the bag, he must be a very powerful expert."
The man paused and said, "Compared to me who is in poor health, his health is much better, so I judge that there is no need to give up my seat to him. Do you have any other opinions?"
This fast-paced debate knocked Machiko Dai completely speechless.
Editor-in-Chief Urashima thinks this plot is the most interesting in the first half of the manga.
Really attractive.
But the only thing that can be considered a shortcoming is the setting of the male protagonist, right?
Most of the male protagonists with undefeated records speak of justice, firmly believe in the truth, are as passionate as the heroines, and are duty-bound to overturn the verdict for others...
In other words, these characters have been drawn badly, and there is really nothing new.
Indeed, the current quality is already very good.
But if we look at the quality of Tonoji's "Midnight Ring" and "The Lonely Gourmet"...this setting of a righteous male protagonist is simply a stain and totally unacceptable.
But the male protagonist hasn't appeared yet...it can only be said to be his speculation.
"Now we can only see if there are any surprises in the second half."
