Chapter 7 New Issue of Comics(1/2)
In the next few days, Zhu Xianyue did not try to go out and look for another camera.
Because that comic has been serialized for five or six years in that high-latitude world if we count it based on the serialization time, and its popularity has always been good.
Therefore, it is the kind of evergreen comic that can be serialized for more than ten or even twenty years.
A long comic means that the pace does not need to be very fast in a sense, and the background stories and plots of some important characters can take a long time to lay out.
And, most importantly, Zhu Xianyue didn't want too many scenes when she first appeared.
This was also decided after she thought about it carefully.
"What I have to do now is just to arouse readers' interest a little bit. It would be bad if it is self-defeating." Zhu Xianyue said.
"After all, if you want to create a new character, you can use a lot of space to describe him, just like drawing on a blank piece of paper."
"But if people's impression of that character has already been finalized, and it's a big villain, then a large amount of whitewashing will make people feel a bit forced, and it may even arouse some people's resentment."
"So, it's better to give readers some hints at every corner and let them guess for themselves instead of directly indoctrinating them with something."
"——After all, these days, people always believe more in what they speculate on." Zhu Xianyue said.
"This will give them a sense that they are not being deceived."
After she said this, she seemed to smile sarcastically.
However, she did not continue to talk about this topic.
"I don't know much about comics. I just think it's really good that you don't run away casually." Xiaobai said.
"After all, you haven't left many traces yet, so I can keep the clown from finding you for the time being."
"Huh? So you can still help me hide my presence now? I thought that when the new comic issue was released tonight, I would be waiting for the protagonist to come to my door at any time."
Zhu Xianyue said casually while flipping through the book.
She wrote down all the whitewashing methods she could imagine in Xiaobai's notepad, and then slowly speculated on her own.
Zhu Xianyue discovered that although the intelligence computer created by her brother had never mentioned its glorious achievements, after getting along with it for a few days, she also realized that this guy might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface.
However, this smart computer is very similar to her brother in many aspects.
For example, they both dislike mentioning things from the past.
Zhu Xianyue wanted to ask some questions about her brother, but the brain cleverly avoided them.
"Okay, since tonight is your screen debut, let's celebrate it. I'll get you some snacks, and then we can eat potato chips and read the comic tonight."
Bai Dao.
"Screen debut? This word sounds a bit cool, as if I am going to become a big star." Zhu Xianyue said casually.
"However, when this word is used in a comic, it seems a bit inappropriate."
"Why don't they match up?" Xiaobai said, "Aren't you hiding in a small room to observe your image in the eyes of others?"
"If the image in the eyes of others is better, then a group of people will celebrate together, just like Miss Feiwan did at that time..."
"Fly... what are you flying for?"
Zhu Xianyue didn't pay much attention to Xiaobai's words, but suddenly she heard a somewhat familiar name.
"Nothing." After being asked by Zhu Xianyue, Xiaobai seemed to realize that he had said too much, and immediately changed the subject, "Your snacks are almost here, go out and pick them up."
Zhu Xianyue got out of bed and opened the door, and happened to get the potato chips and Coke delivered by the hotel robot.
When she got the things back, she was still thinking about the name she just heard.
Xiaobai's brain is not equipped with so many human simulation systems. Sometimes she is very similar to her brother and has no sense, so she often makes mistakes.
But Zhu Xianyue still suspected that she had heard wrongly.
Fei Wan...
When Zhu Xianyue took the potato chips, she subconsciously raised her head and glanced out the window.
Then, she saw the huge billboard facing the hotel window.
A girl with a sweet and sexy smile was holding a drink in her hand and smiling at her.
This is the hottest female star in Highgate recently.
——Li Feiwan.
Zhu Xianyue looked at the billboard for a few seconds, then suddenly shrugged slightly, turned around and entered the house.
"I really didn't expect that."
"Xiao Bai, that rigid robot, is actually chasing stars these days..."
…
A peaceful afternoon.
Astha and some of his friends were sitting in front of a restaurant drinking.
As an exiled mercenary organization, they don't have many opportunities to sit down and drink quietly like they do now.
Therefore, every party is like a carnival for them.
"Asta, you fell out of love again last time. I heard that the girl you liked only liked the clown, right?"
The man opposite Asta smiled and patted his shoulder.
Asta drank heavily from his glass, not wanting to answer his comrade's words.
As a person who has failed to express his love many times, he has become accustomed to the teasing of his comrades, but this does not mean that he can just let them tease him.
"I said, if you use this kind of thing to laugh at me again, then when you go back, you should be more careful..."
"Okay, okay." A person sitting opposite seemed to notice that Asta was in a bad mood, and he asked everyone around him to quiet down a little.
"The girl Asta likes is always snatched away by that clown again and again. It's normal for him to be in a bad mood..."
But as he talked, he finally couldn't hold back his smile.
"But when the last girl left, she told him that he was a good person. Counting that one, a total of 19 girls have said the same thing to him."
"If we gather just one more, I'm afraid we will win the bet we made before, haha..."
"Steve, you're done!" Asta slapped his beer on the table, "You'll be doomed when you go back!"
"Okay, okay, it's just a joke, don't be angry, relax, I believe you will find a girl who likes you..."
Asta lowered his head and said with a slight pain, "Stop talking, I can't find a better girl than her."
...while they were talking.
At some point, a person came over and sat at the table next to them.
The man was wearing black clothes and was very quiet.
It was so quiet that no one at Asta's table even noticed "her" for the first time.
They continued drinking for a while, and I don't know who noticed the table opposite first.
It seemed that the portion of the strawberry sundae that person brought over was so shocking that everyone around him couldn't help but look at it with suspicion.
The man stretched out his hand to take the half-meter-high sundae cup, and the exposed hand had clear joints.
Most of "her" face was covered by her bangs, and her face was as pale as if there was no trace of blood. The whiteness was even more shocking when set off by the black windbreaker.
It may even give people a strange illusion.
That person's whole person seemed to be transparent.
When "she" picked up the spoon of the sundae, the sound at the table next to her stopped at some point, and a group of people stared at "her" intently.
Above her head, the sun shined through the restaurant's parasol and shone on the other person's face. A soft golden light suddenly appeared on "her" almost transparent skin.
Obviously "she" was in the same restaurant as everyone else, but strangely, when "she" sat down, everyone's eyes seemed to revolve around "her".
Everyone around him suddenly became insignificant.
When "she" lowered her head to eat the sundae, Asta suddenly heard her heart beating crazily.
Boom, boom——
What is this feeling?
Asta has confessed to countless girls so far. In fact, he did not dare to say that he has been rejected by far more than 19 girls, because if he said this, he would probably be ridiculed even more crazily.
Every time he met those girls in the past, he would always feel his heart flutter.
But this time, Asta felt that his feelings were very strange. Different from the past, he did not feel as excited as before.
However, he suddenly felt that everything around him was getting farther and farther away from him, and the sunlight above his head became more intense.
He ate the sundae anxiously, and couldn't help but glance over there while eating.
This meal was particularly painful for Asta.
If it were normal times, these friends around him would probably laugh at him.
But this time it was strange, everyone around was extremely quiet.
To be continued...
