"What should I do? I can only say, as expected of the author..." Kenjiro sighed, both the characters and the style of painting were impeccable, and they fit the content of the book very well.There is an inseparable feeling that "illustrations belong to novels, and novels also belong to illustrations".
"So, are you qualified?"
"It's more than just passing." Kenjiro hummed, "If you're qualified, do you want those illustrations to fail?"
Subaru thanked the editor very politely for his praise.
"OK, let's sign the contract now."
Kenjiro took out the contract from the briefcase. The content was roughly the same as the light novel contract, except that the novel was replaced with an illustration. The other difference was that the contract in the illustration did not share the profit, only the royalties, but the royalties were compared to light novels. to be significantly higher.
There seemed to be no problem, and Subaru signed his name on the contract so that he only had to wait for the release date.
"Happy cooperation." Kenjiro held out his hand.
"Happy cooperation." Subaru also held out his hand.
"it is finally over!"
As soon as Subaru stretched out his hand, the door to the chat room was slammed open, and the editors who had just dispersed were gathered in the chat room again.Subaru looked at Kenjiro, fortunately, this guy didn't run away this time.
"Sakamoto-sensei, please have dinner with us."
All editors spoke in unison.It seems that during the time that Subaru and Kenjiro were talking, the editors had reached a consensus.
Since the editors were so enthusiastic, Subaru had no choice but to refuse, and nodded: "I'm glad everyone invited me. If that's the case, then I'll be more respectful than obedient."
When they heard that Subaru had agreed, everyone seemed very excited.
"Then go to Xiaonanguo. I went there last time, and it's not bad inside."
"What's good about Xiaonanguo, I know one, it's definitely much better than Xiaonanguo."
"What, Xiao Nanguo is the best! What do you know!"
As soon as Subaru agreed, the editors quarreled about where to eat.
"What are you doing?! Mr. Sakamoto is not an adult yet, yet you actually took him to the izakaya?"
It was only then that everyone realized that the popular writer who won the top prize was just a 16-year-old high school student.For a time, apologetic voices rose and fell.
Subaru didn't want to shake the hearts of these kind editors, so he said with a smile: "Actually, I don't care. I can drink a little wine, and it's good to go to an izakaya."
In the previous life, the Celestial Dynasty did not have such a rigid rule that minors could not drink alcohol, and Subaru didn't particularly care about it.
"Really? Can Sakamoto-sensei drink?"
Subaru's words made the editors excited again, and at the same time, they also appreciated this empathetic writer even more.
"Hey, Subaru, can you really drink?" Kenjiro asked in a low voice, unlike other editors.
Subaru also replied in a low voice, "It's alright, I've drank before, so I'll be fine when I drink a little less."
"Then I'll be relieved. By the way, if you can't drink by then, give me a gesture, and I'll help you block the wine."
"Thank you very much if you can."
"It's nothing, after all, you agreed to drink for these stupid editors. This is what I should do."
Having said that, when Subaru felt that he was about to get drunk and asked the editor to help stop the drink, Kenjiro had already fallen asleep on the table.What do you say you drink so hard when you have nothing to do?Subaru rolled his eyes in his heart. He couldn't refuse someone's toast, so he had to drink it like this.
In the end, Subaru was still very drunk, got on the train going home with his last consciousness, and took the stop as a matter of course, and in the end he didn't even remember how he got back.
Chapter 40 "Small Forward" Airy Kashii
Sunday.
Huixin Primary School Gym.
"Come on! Come on! Fight! Fight!"
The auditoriums on both sides of the basketball court were already full.Whether it is sixth grade or fifth grade or even many lower grades are in the auditorium, the big showdown between the men's basketball club and the women's basketball club has long spread throughout Huixin Elementary School.
"Players from both sides play."
As soon as the referee blows his whistle, the game is about to start.
"ah!!!"
The players are about to play and the atmosphere of the scene is detonated again. All the youthful primary school students are cheering for their favorite team.Of course, most elementary school students have their hearts set on teams of the same gender.
Subaru and Meixing stood in the rest area of the women's basketball club as coaches and club teachers respectively.There is only one person on the other side, the coach and club teacher nicknamed "Mantis".
Before the official start of the game, Coach Subaru made his final speech.
"Go, everyone. We've worked hard in the past two weeks. Now is the time for you to show the results of your practice. Show your best self to everyone! Let everyone see how the women's basketball club has changed from weak to small step by step. for the mighty!"
"Yes, I understand!"
The loli answered in unison, although there is no team uniform like the men's basketball club, although they are all wearing gymnastics uniforms, but the little loli are holding the amulets of different colors on their chests tightly.It was as if Subaru was passing on his power to everyone in the women's basketball club little by little.
"Please advise!"
The players on both sides bowed before the game, and then stood according to the competition position.
The referee blew the whistle, signaling both sides to jump the ball.
Since Ellie is still a little afraid of being too competitive, the task of jumping the ball is handed over to the most skilled Chihua, and the men's basketball club is also playing their ace, Takenaka Xiayang.
"Beep-!"
The whistle sounded, the basketball was thrown into the air, and Takenaka jumped first, but he made a mistake in judgment. When he jumped to the highest point, the basketball hadn't fallen to the height of his hand, and Zhihua got up and slapped the racket at Maho.
"True sail!"
"okay!"
Zhenho received the ball from Zhihua, and the women's basketball club successfully got the ball.
"Okay!" Subaru clenched his fists, and said hello to Chihua in his heart.
"Ai Li!" Maho made a few rough moves and passed the ball to Ai Li who moved to the basket.
Ellie caught the basketball, skillfully made a three-step layup, and the basketball fell to the net.
"Nice, Ellie!"
"Good job! Ellie!"
The members of the women's basketball club are not stingy to send their praises.
"Hehe~~~", Ellie patted her head embarrassedly, she seemed very happy, and repeated practice for several days finally had an effect.
The men's basketball club served the ball, and the ball went to the ace Takenaka.
"I won't let you pass, Takenaka-san."
Ace showdown.
"This time, I won't lose again, Minato."
Zhihua didn't answer any more, her eyes narrowed, and she stared at Zhuzhong's movements.
Takenaka stepped to the right, and at the same time lowered his body, his center of gravity was completely shifted, and it seemed that he wanted to throw off Zhihua for a layup purely by speed.
"Chihwa, I'll teach you a defensive technique. When defending, if the opponent simply wants to break through you with speed, his center of gravity will definitely be lowered, and generally he will not change direction. At this time, you have three One way is to speed up and stand in front of him in front of him and fall to the ground when he makes physical contact, causing the opposite to hit someone with the ball and foul. The second is that it is difficult to change hands when breaking through by speed. You can use it when he passes you. Stealing the ball straight from his dominant hand. The third is to get right behind him and block the shot on a layup or a jump shot. Come on, I'll show you."
"Yes!"
The defensive skills that Brother Subaru had given him a few days ago appeared in his mind. Although Tomoka was still thinking, his body had already moved.When Takenaka was walking around him, he took the first step to go around behind Takenaka, and one reached out and patted Takenaka's right hand.
"Snapped!"
Takenaka still maintains the position just now, but the basketball is no longer in his hands.The ball was transferred, and Zhihua held the ball to the men's basketball team's basket.
"Ellie!"
In a hurry, the players defending Ellie came to make up the defense, and Zhihua passed the ball directly to Ellie.After receiving the ball, Ellie made another layup and scored successfully.The current score is 4-0.
"Wow!!!"
The women's basketball club's score again aroused the screams of the girls. As a result, the women's basketball club was ahead by 4 points, and the form was very good.
"It's amazing, you actually scored 4 points first, Subaru, it's yours." Mei Xing also sighed on the side, who would have thought that the women's basketball club, which was so weak and hopeless, could still make a 4-0 start?
"Speaking of which, Subaru, Ellie is obviously more active than before. What did you do in this short week?"
"Haha, Sister Meixing, I call it prescribing the right medicine." Subaru raised his chest proudly. In order to make Ellie play better, he even prescribed a powerful medicine.
10 minutes ago, in the lounge of the gymnasium.
"Everyone, the game is about to start, I'll assign everyone's positions now."
The little girls lined up, their heads held high, and they listened carefully to Subaru’s words.
"Point guard, Saki."
"Shooting guard, Hyuga-chan."
"Power forward, Maho."
"Small forward... Ellie!"
"Huh?!!" Ellie's face showed obvious surprise, "Me, small forward?"
"Finally, center, Zhihua." After the position was announced, Subaru looked at Ellie and said solemnly: "Yes, it's small forward. Originally, this position was Zhihua's position, but I am very moved by Ellie these days. Practicing hard, so I'll give you that spot."
"Small forward..."
"Yes, it's the youngest, but, in order to take care of Zhihua's mood, if you don't behave well, Ellie, I will exchange the two of you back, and you will become a center."
"Center, center?!" Ellie squeezed her hands tightly, as if she wanted to hold the position of small forward in her hands.
"Yes, I forgot to mention that the center has another alias, Big man."
"B, Big man?!!!", Ellie's face turned gloomy at once, all that came to her mind was that after she became a giant, the tall buildings had not yet reached her waist height, she sat on the ground by herself, everywhere. It's all helicopters taking pictures of themselves, the giant.
"Brother Subaru, please teach me how to do it! As a small forward!"
Ellie's eyes became firm, and at this moment, it seemed that she was not only fighting for the women's basketball club, but also for her position as a small forward.
"So, although Ellie is a small forward, she is doing the work of a center?" After listening to Subaru's remarks, Meixing probably understood Subaru's intentions.
"Yes, I'm sorry to Ellie, but I'd better wait until I win the game and then explain my apology to her." Subaru chuckled a few times, and his eyes fell on the man who, despite being double-teamed by the two of them, still summoned the courage not to back down. On Ellie.
