"Tomorrow, I'm really looking forward to that."

Fujiwara Aoi became interested.

I heard Higashinoji say before that this comic is not a horror comic, and she doesn't know what kind of work it is... Anyway, she is looking forward to it.

The night passed quickly.

Early the next day.

"Hurry up!" Fujiwara Aoi urged Takahashi Yumi to leave the convenience store.

"I know, I know. Why are you urging me...why are you in such a hurry?" Yumi Takahashi came out of the convenience store with two comics in her hands.

"Why did you take two copies?" Fujiwara Aoi was confused, not knowing what this guy was doing.

"The one on my left is "Cold" by Urashima Publishing, and the one on my right is "Thriller" by Fuji Publishing. Oops... I didn't expect that the author I like very much, Mr. Shumotofuji, also drew a new work. Of course

You have to buy it and take a look.”

Takahashi Yumi answered matter-of-factly.

But this answer made Aoi Fujiwara raise her eyebrows.

She said in an uncertain tone: "Shumoto Fuji... I remember he is the author of "The Man Reflected in the Camera" and "Shadow Man", right? And aren't Urashima Publishing and Fuji Publishing in a competitive relationship? Now Shu

Honda is releasing a new comic...could it be that he is going to compete with Higashino-san?"

When Fujiwara Aoi mentioned this, Takahashi Yumi was stunned, and then glanced at the "Thriller" in her hand blankly: "No way...?"

"What can't be done? Everything is possible when it comes to publishing houses. Maybe Shumoto Fuji is here to attack Higashino-san?"

Fujiwara Aoi curled her lips—this pig-brained person actually boosted sales for Higashino-san’s opponent!

and...

Fujiwara Aoi noticed Konoe Ryoka's vague gaze.

Konoe Ryoka must be worried about what she just said...Did Higashinoji really get sniped?

So Fujiwara Aoi could only cough dryly and put down the topic that made Konoe Ryoka uneasy: "Let's see how Higashino-san's painting is."

She reached for the cold and opened it.

When they saw the first page, the three of them were completely stunned.

After a long time, they finally raised their heads and looked at each other with disbelief on their faces——

"How come there is such a cartoon?"

Another person who had the same feeling as them was Suzuki Yu.

At this time, she was really standing on the work chair with her bare feet, holding "Cold" in her hands, and burst into laughter from time to time.

Smiling like a child returning to his childishness.

"It's so interesting! Editor-in-chief Furuta! It's really interesting! Mr. Higashino's new comic! Huh? How did I become a prisoner? I'm not a prisoner! It's not me who killed anyone!"

While she was reading the set of fallacies introduced by Gu Meimen in "Abominable Cold", she couldn't help but laugh.

When she saw Kensuke Komemon telling nonsense and forcibly refusing to give up her seat, she happily murmured to herself: "Oh, it's so interesting. Mr. Higashino can even draw a sidekick so interestingly."

Next to him, Shinji Furuta looked at her laughing like a psychotic person at every turn, then glanced at the "Abomination of Cold" in her hand, and finally raised his head helplessly.

How to say...

My mood right now is very complicated.

Extremely complex.

It's so complicated that I'm speechless.

He had read "The Winner Is Justice" several times, but at this time, he still couldn't help but ask Suzuki Ha: "Teacher Shumotofuji, what do you think? "The Lawyer Trap" can beat "The Victory"

Is it justice?"

After hearing this, Suzuki Yu put down "Cold" with a cheerful smile on his face: "I can win."

"Can we win?" Furuta Shinji became more energetic.

Then he heard what Suzuki Yu said next——

"Readers who are blind can win."

Well...

Furuta Shinji shook his head, doesn't this mean he can't win?

"What a big defeat..."

Suzuki Yu took out a breath and sighed inexplicably.

As said before.

To lose is to lose.

She would not be so shameless that she would not admit the fact that she lost.

"The Winner Is Justice" is just more interesting than "The Lawyer Trap".

Whether it is the character setting of the male protagonist or the compact structure of the plot, it is a level higher than that of "The Lawyer Trap".

Not to mention Higashino Tsuna's painting skills, which are like an immersive experience, completely pulling her into the story.

What else could she say in this situation?

"Loose, lost. I lost this time."

Suzuki Yu put down "Abominable Cold" with a 'pop' sound.

Seeing that she seemed to have given up completely, Shinji Furuta couldn't help but comforted her: "Don't be discouraged, Teacher Shumotofuji... It's okay even if you lose this time... There will be opportunities in the future.

The main reason is that Mr. Higashino is indeed very strong, and there is no shame in losing to him."

But what Shinji Furuta didn't expect was that Suzuki Yu looked at him strangely after listening to his comfort: "Uh... what are you talking about? Chief Editor Furuta?"

"...No...didn't you lose this time? I'm comforting..."

"I lost this time. It was just the first episode."

Suzuki Yu took it for granted: "Although I lost this chapter, there will be another chapter. If I lose the next chapter, there will be another chapter. I will continue to improve! Until I defeat Mr. Higashino!"

Yes.

She has always been the type who becomes more courageous with every setback.

If it doesn't work once, do it twice; if it doesn't work twice, do it three times.

Sooner or later, she will defeat Higashinoji!

She admitted defeat this time, but she had no intention of completely admitting defeat!

This is her.

This is the tree vine.

but...

Suzuki Yu seemed to have thought of something, and touched his head in embarrassment, and then hehehe approached Furuta Shinji.

"Editor-in-Chief Gutian, I'm sorry, can you lend me your phone?"

"...Yes, yes, what do you want to do?"

Shinji Furuta took out his cell phone and asked something strange.

"Apologise to Mr. Higashino."

She chuckled and wiped the corners of her eyes that seemed to have nothing.
Chapter completed!
