Chapter 067 Newcomer
Although Professor Baotian was happy, he did not mention letting Higashino Xi go out for an internship.
Actually, he gave Dong Yexi almost free rein. Even when he hadn't been to the lab for over ten days, he didn't even call him to urge him. Which medical graduate student had such an easy life?
However, since the tutor didn't say anything, Dong Ye Xi was happy to pretend not to know.
After leaving the lab, he went to the Sports Medicine Department next door. Then he learned from Shirabu Kenjiro that the spring seasons for major sports had recently begun, and they would go to various gymnasiums to serve as volunteers.
Normal college games don't have school doctors accompanying them. These students, though not yet graduates, can properly handle injuries in emergencies, minimizing or preventing subsequent consequences and preventing students from being forced to abandon their athletic careers due to accidents.
After a brief chat, he went to the club activity room again.
"Huh? Why isn't the door locked?" Dong Yexi saw that the door was ajar and thought there was someone inside, but when he pushed the door open, he found no one was there.
Maybe he left temporarily.
Higashino took two steps inside and saw a file bag dropped next to Anda Shizuku's desk, with several papers spilling out. He squatted down to pick it up and found a pattern drawn on the paper.
"Is this a comic manuscript?" The pictures are very detailed and the character lines have been filled in. It is a complete manuscript.
This was Higashino Hi's first time seeing a comic book manuscript. The characters were so beautifully drawn that he couldn't help but sort through the drawings and flip through them one by one.
This seems to be a campus youth comic. The story begins with a second-generation super-rich man who, in search of true love, goes to a common school. On his first day, he tries hard to act like an ordinary person but ends up making so many jokes that his classmates mistake him for someone from the countryside.
Dong Yexi frowned: This character setting is not very good. This rich second generation who is so love-brained will be criticized by readers.
However, the plot is very funny, and it can be seen that the author has strong storytelling skills.
The rich second generation quickly became friends with his classmates, but there was a "lone wolf" in the class who was very cold to him.
Dong Yexi thought to himself: Hmm, it seems this lone wolf is the second male lead. Next, they will either become friends through fighting, or they will remain enemies and become rivals. In either case, they will both fall in love with the same woman and become rivals in love.
Dong Yexi turned to the next page with confidence.
Learning to organize a hot spring trip, the rich second generation and the lone wolf were assigned to the same room. At the beginning, the two of them were tit-for-tat, but then the plot suddenly took a sharp turn and turned into a mosaic.
Dong Yexi's hands trembled and he dropped the manuscript in fright.
Is this a BL manga?! And it's 18x!
The manuscript fell down, and the subsequent scenes were even more explicit, the kind that would make you embarrassed to even look at it!
Dong Yexi put away all the drawings with a red face.
Although he fell in love with a man and usually enjoyed flirting, he had never come across such a restricted scene.
Who the hell is drawing this?!
Anda Shizuku walked in humming a song. She was happy at first when she saw Higashino Xi, but then her face changed drastically when she saw him holding a briefcase in his hand. She then rushed over and snatched the briefcase behind her.
Dong Yexi looked at him in shock and asked, "Is this, yours?"
Anda Shizuku saw his expression and thought to herself: Not good.
He smiled awkwardly and asked, "You, you didn't see what was inside?"
Dong Yexi spread his hands and said innocently: "It fell to the ground and scattered all over the floor." The implication was that he saw it.
When Anda Shizuku heard this, her face turned pale.
What should I do if my classmates find out that I’m drawing pornographic comics?
He didn't know how others dealt with it, but he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
"You have this skill?" Dong Yexi had already put away his shock, and he was still in the mood to tease, "You are quite good at painting."
Anda Shizuku touched her nose, coughed lightly, and said, "It's all learned through practice."
"By the way, how long have you been drawing? Have you submitted any works?"
Anda Shizuku nodded and said, "I started contributing my work after entering university. It's been serialized in magazines, and I've also published a few single volumes."
Dong Yexi looked at him in surprise: "So amazing!"
After being praised by him, Anda Shizuku said with a little pride: "It's nothing, I haven't produced any hit products yet."
"However," Dong Yexi pointed to the file bag in his arms and asked curiously, "Can this also be published?"
Adachi Shizuku's mouth twitched. "...Okay. Just note it's 18x, and it needs to be blurred. So I didn't draw some parts."
Higashino Hiroshi said he had learned some useless information. He looked Adachi Shizuku up and down and said, "But I never thought you liked men."
Upon hearing this, Anda Shizuku immediately said righteously: "Let me make it clear first, I draw BL manga, it doesn't mean I like men. I am just an ordinary BL manga, and I am still heterosexual myself."
Dong Yexi was puzzled: "Is there such a saying?"
"Of course!" said Anda Shizuku. "Ship CP is just an attitude, it doesn't represent my sexual orientation."
"Since you don't like men, how do you know how men fall in love?"
Anda Shizuku smiled: "Just refer to others."
Dong Yexi raised his eyebrows.
Referencing others? Are there gay people around him? Kindaichi is definitely not one of them. Could he be referring to Matsuzaki Toru? However, I don't see him with a partner.
Dong Yexi thought about it for a while and suddenly realized that the only person he liked was a man. He frowned and said, "Isn't it me you're referring to?"
Anda Shizuku's face froze and she looked away guiltily.
"I was wondering why the male lead is called Xiye? The emotional part is about me! Hurry up!" Dongye Xi hooked his neck, poked the top of his head with his index finger joint, and said sinisterly, "Confess and you will be treated leniently. Resist and you will be treated severely. Tell me the truth!"
"Ouch, ouch!" Anda Shizuku was in so much pain that she begged for mercy immediately, "Master Higashino, please spare me! I'll do it right away!"
Dong Yexi let go of his hand, and Anda Shizuku rubbed the top of her head and said in horror: "Why do I feel like I have a bald spot!"
"If you don't tell me, I'll shave your hair into a topknot." Dong Yexi threatened.
Anda Shizuku paused, then immediately got up from her seat and said, "I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have been so foolish as to use you as a reference. I beg you to be magnanimous and forgive me!"
Dong Yexi coughed all over and said in a low voice: "You committed such a serious crime, and you want to escape the blame like this?"
Anda Shizuku immediately bowed and said, "Master, I will immediately arrange a banquet and gifts, and return all the royalties I earned to you!"
Seeing his exaggerated look, Higashino couldn't help but burst out laughing. He nudged Anda Shizuku's shoulder with his toes and said, "Get up. How much can your royalty be?"
Anda Shizuku immediately jumped up: "Hey, don't look down on me. I bought this much for my first girls' comic!" He stretched out his hand and gestured.
Dong Yexi raised his eyebrows. "That's a lot! So why did you start drawing this?"
Adachi Shizuku sighed, "Isn't this because I don't have enough material? I've already drawn everyone in love around me, and yet you just happen to fall in love with a man."
Dong Yexi pointed at himself and said, "Blame me?"
"No, no, no, of course I can't blame you!" Adachi Shizuku said immediately, "It's also because the publishing house I'm with is going to launch a BL manga magazine soon, and I want to seize this opportunity. Don't worry, I wrote in the manga, 'This work has no prototype. Report any similarities to the original.'"
Higashino Hi: ...
He rolled his eyes.
It is indeed difficult to tell who the character is in the comics. If Anda Shizuku hadn't said that he had referenced the people around him, he wouldn't have thought of himself.
Just then, Anda Shizuku's cell phone rang.
"Hello. Oh, editor, you're here. Wait for me downstairs, I'll be down soon." Then he gave Dong Yexi a look and went downstairs with the draft.
Dong Yexi walked to the window and looked down, and saw a man wearing a suit and tie, with a strong corporate life vibe, standing next to the flower bed downstairs.
That must be Adachi Shizuku's editor.
Sure enough, after Anda Shizuku ran out, she handed him the manuscript in her hand.
After the editor left, Anda Shizuku quickly ran up again.
He said, "How is it? My editor is pretty handsome, right?"
Dong Yexi was speechless: "I can only see the top of his head from upstairs, how can I know if he is handsome or not."
Upon hearing this, Anda Shizuku took out his phone and began searching. "I remember the editorial department seemed to have its own homepage with their photos on it." He searched for a while, then held the phone out to Higashino Hiroshi's eyes. "Look, isn't he pretty handsome?"
Dong Yexi: "He's not that handsome, is he?" He touched his chin and said, "He's far inferior to me."
Adachi Shizuku: ...Come and see! There's a shameless person here!
"However, it can be considered above average." Dong Yexi looked through the editor's profile, "Hatori Yoshiyuki."
"Oh, yeah, he has the same last name as your junior!" Anda Shizuku teased, "Maybe they're relatives."
Dong Yexi said calmly, "It's possible. After all, they are both handsome. However, he is far inferior to my junior."
Adachi Shizuku: That’s enough!
As the two of them were joking around, there was a sudden knock on the door. "Hello, is this the Criminal Psychology Research Society?"
The two turned around and saw a young man wearing black-framed glasses standing at the door.
"Yes, what can I do for you?" Dong Yexi asked.
The young man smiled and said, "Actually, I want to join your club."
Higashino Xi and Anda Shizuku looked at each other and said, "Sorry, the recruitment period has passed. We will not be recruiting new people for the time being."
The young man lowered his head regretfully. "Oh, so that's it... It seems I'll have to find another way to write my graduation thesis."
Dong Yexi's brows furrowed when he heard the key words. He asked, "Are you having any difficulties?" As someone who had also struggled with graduation thesis writing, he was happy to help his classmates if he could.
The young man said, "My graduation thesis is about criminal investigation, and I'd like to refer to your database. But I heard that your club's database is only open to members."
So that's how it is.
The young man continued, "I want to compare the case information I've collected with your database to eliminate any erroneous information and make my paper more accurate."
Seeing his seriousness, Dong Yexi thought about it and agreed. He said, "It's not convenient to have new students this semester. How about this? You fill out an application form first, and I'll submit it to the Student Union next semester."
The young man said gratefully, "Thank you very much!"
"You're welcome. It's only natural for classmates to help each other." Dong Yexi took out a pen and a form and handed them to him. "Just sit here and write."
After the young man sat down, he picked up the pen with his left hand and began to fill out the form.
Then, Higashino Xi watched him write "Okiya Subaru" in the name column.
Okiya Subaru? Okiya Subaru? !
Dong Yexi's eyes suddenly widened.
Isn't Subaru Okiya the same person as Shuichi Akai? The FBI agent who faked his own death?! Why is he here?!
"Okay." Before Higashino Xi could figure it out, Okiya Subaru quickly filled out the form and handed it to him.
Dong Yexi looked at his smiling face and felt very conflicted: Is it too late for me to refuse now?
