"comics?"
Xia You raised his eyebrows. He had never considered this direction before.
Sakuragi Yoshino said: "Yes, compared to text and illustrations, comics can more directly interpret the excitement of the story, and they will be more popular among young people."
"Would it be too much trouble?"
Sakuragi Yoshino's tone was full of expectation and he smiled: "It's a little more troublesome, but the structure and framework of the story have been completed. All we have to do now is to express them. And I have nothing to do at home. If Being able to draw a comic like this is a dream come true for me."
Since the other party said so, Xia You had no reason to refuse. Next, he discussed some details with Sakuragi Yoshino and hung up the phone.
Because the plan had changed, he sent a message to Xiaoxia, telling them not to wait for him anymore and to move forward after challenging the Golden City Gym.
In the next two days, Xia You collected materials locally in Maiden Gorge and kept in touch with Sakuragi Yoshino from time to time to provide her with relevant expansion materials.
It wasn't until the third day that he received a call from her and learned that the first draft of more than 20 pages had been completed. Xia You then left and returned to Kuye City.
Dr. Sakuragi's home is a typical Japanese-style one-family house. It is not very far from the research institute. Because he knew in advance that Xia You was coming, Dr. Sakuragi did not go to the research institute, but waited for him at home.
And because it was Saturday, all four members of the family, including Koharu and her younger brother Souta, went out to greet him.
When they saw Xia You, the call dogs surrounded him, circling back and forth with their tails raised.
Looking at this neat family, Xia You couldn't help but sweat on his forehead.
It’s strange, why does it feel like walking in empty-handed and seeing your mother-in-law for the first time?
As the host, Dr. Sakuragi was the first to speak: "Welcome, please come in."
Xia You nodded politely, his eyes moving across Cang Tai's body, and finally resting on the hostess: "It's our first time meeting you. I'm Xia You. I take the liberty of disturbing you."
Sakuragi Yoshino wears a pair of red-framed round glasses. Her appearance is somewhat similar to Koharu, but her face is rounder and more mature. She has long cherry-colored hair, which she combs into a side braid, starting from her left shoulder. Drooped.
As for Sakuragi Sota, he is more like Dr. Sakuragi. This little boy is a bit cool and is a standard young shota. Although he is a few years younger than Koharu, he looks young and mature and feels more reliable than Koharu.
A little cautiously, I put on my slippers, entered the door, and came to the living room.
Sakuragi Yoshino took out a transparent bag and took out the twenty-some pages of comics inside.
"This is what I have drawn for now. It is estimated that it will take another 195 pages to present the rest of the story. However, since there is no complicated composition, the speed may be faster."
The calculations are so precise, which seems to be quite careful.
Xia You looked through it carefully and said with admiration: "What an outstanding artist. It's a pity that my aunt doesn't want to be a professional cartoonist."
As a full-time housewife, it is naturally a very happy thing to be recognized by others for your abilities.
"Your story is also very well written." Sakuragi Yoshino covered his chuckle and had a great first impression of Xia You, "Only a wonderful story paired with excellent painting skills can be very popular."
"That's right." Xiaochun agreed, "I am the first reader of this story. After reading it carefully, it is indeed very attractive."
"I am the second, and dad is the third." Sakuragi Souta put his hands into pillows behind his neck, with a leisurely look on his face.
But I don't know if it was his illusion, but Souta suddenly felt that there seemed to be a round head in Xia You's shadow, and he made a big face at it!
He rubbed his eyes, moved his head closer, and took a closer look. The next second, something like a black ball suddenly appeared, which shocked him!
"Wow!!!"
Souta jumped so high that he fell behind the sofa.
"Jie Jie!" Guisi's body appeared with a smirk on his face, "What a coward!"
"Is this the Ghost mentioned in the story?" Dr. Sakuragi helped his son up and looked at Ghost with surprise.
"That's right." Xia You stopped Guisi and nodded, "To a certain extent, it is actually the protagonist of the story."
Souta got up from the ground. Although he fell, he did not feel scared. Instead, he gathered around Guisi and looked at it curiously. He was obviously very interested in why it was in the shadow.
At noon, with the kindness of Dr. Sakuragi and his family, Xia You had lunch at Sakuragi's house. They talked and laughed, and for a while, the dining table was full of relaxation and joy.
And when Xia You took out the photos he took at the bottom of the St. Ann's, the four of them even exclaimed.
Dr. Sakuragi's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "The news of the sinking of the St. Annuo a few days ago caused a stir in Kanto. I didn't expect that you were not only an experiencer of the incident, but also sank to the bottom of the sea at the same time as the ship. In the end, it turned out that And escaped!”
Xiaochun also looked at Xia You up and down, as if he was getting to know him all over again.
And Couta, with stars in his eyes, simply admired him: "Brother Xia You, you are so - cool!"
…
After agreeing on the completion date with Sakuragi Yoshino, Xiayou set off again to Golden City.
Golden yellow is the color of shining gold.
This time, apart from Kirulian, only Ghost was hiding in his shadow among the Pokémon accompanying him. As for the other Pokémon, he had all taken them into the Poké Ball.
Along the way, nothing else happened.
And when he arrived at this super metropolis in the Kanto region, Xiaozhi and his party had already left for other gym cities.
However, according to Xiaoxia, they went through a lot of troubles when they challenged the Golden Gym. After the first challenge failed, they suffered a lot and had to go to the Ghost Tower in Ziyuan Town to conquer a ghost. After passing it, I relied on its power to successfully obtain the badge.
For this reason, they also wasted two days, so the distance between them and Xia You is not very far now.
There are high-rise buildings everywhere in the golden city. It is not only the central business circle of the Kanto region, but also has the largest infrastructure in the region. There is even a suspended train station connecting the Johto region. There are countless trains every day. With a maximum speed of 550 kilometers per hour, it shuttles between Jinhuang City and Manjin City, bringing economy and vitality to these two cities of the same level.
After passing through the bustling streets, Xia You came directly to the Golden Gym.
Look up.
Its appearance is very similar to many white umbrellas, close together, and it is full of design, but it is too monotonous. From Xia You's point of view, it is slightly inferior to other gyms.
As the current official gym in Golden City, its gym owner is Nazhi, whose specialty is superpower attributes. She is very difficult to deal with, but after defeating her, you can get the golden badge.
Xia You entered the gym through the electric door and looked around.
The hall here was empty, and no one came to receive him. After taking a few steps forward, he saw through the door and window a group of people in white coats sitting at a table in a side room. Holding a spoon in his hand, he stared at it intently, as if he was doing some kind of super power exercise!
