Big Manga

The turmoil was just an episode, after which everything returned to calm.

In the next few weeks, the progress of both Phoenix and Zhongxia was accelerated.

The sales volume of "Weekly Boutique" is gradually increasing, but the growth rate of "Weekly Boys" is even greater, basically maintaining at two-thirds of the former level.

However, at this time, Meng Huo was not in a hurry to release One Piece. Now that he has the upper hand, the hole cards can be placed. The Zhongxia Company must have other actions. They are too calm. The publicity offensive in the weeks after the turmoil is limited. Compared with breaking through sales, it is more like solidifying the current popularity.

And "The Sequel to Sherlock" is even more strange. After a few weeks in "Weekly Shonen", Haibara Ai's character popularity vote ranked first. But the popularity of "Sherlock Sequel" is still unabated. Even on "Weekly Boutique", the voting rate of this comic has reached 30%, ranking first.

The comics in "Weekly Collection" are all selected from the collections on "Zhongxia Daily", and another one has been selected in the past few weeks. And the high number of votes in "The Sequel to Sherlock" proves that it is indeed Zhongxia's best comic, and Li Xin's strength cannot be underestimated.

But the reason for this phenomenon, after a few weeks of observation, Meng Huo discovered that there are other answers - the plot of "The Sequel to Detective Sherlock" develops very quickly.

The content of each issue of this comic is excellent, and the pace of the story is very fast. The female detective came out to fight Sherlock's wits and courage one after another, and the relationship between the two heated up sharply. tendency.

"The sequel to Sherlock" is like a car with full horsepower. It doesn't intend to leave any foreshadowing at all, and goes straight to the end. Of course, this makes the readers hooked.

"He's crazy?"

Meng Huo couldn't figure out why Zhongxia Company or Li Xin did this. There is still a long time for the single book to be released, but according to their speed, the story will be finished soon. It is cool, what should I do next?

He had a premonition that Zhong Xia might have a back move. So I temporarily left One Piece and focused on the plot of "Detective Conan", which made the sales of "Weekly Shonen" rise steadily.

In other aspects, the cooperation between Phoenix Company and Huamei has deepened. Huamei Bookstore is satisfied with the results brought by Meng Huo, and they promote He Xi together with Phoenix. Both companies stand to gain from this.

Meng Huo would occasionally go back to the company to check the progress of other work. The comics, animation, and games were all going well, and the employees were full of fighting spirit.

Most of the time, Meng Huo still stayed at home, painting and playing the piano. He had more time to read and accompany Li Qin.

This made Li Qin happy. Alice is still busy with work, and she seems to be very busy during the holidays, and she will come only a few times when the manuscript is received.

It is worth mentioning that the event that Alice prepared for Meng Huo encountered an unexpected situation. After the proposal was put forward, it was opposed by Xu Jing-he wanted to make a bigger event.

After Phoenix's internal discussions, the event was postponed to July. It is no longer a reader meeting and thank-you meeting, but a more solemn one, a grand celebration of the first anniversary of Meng Huo's debut.

This celebration is jointly organized by Phoenix Company, Huamei Bookstore, Ninghai TV Station, other cooperative enterprises, and even volunteer readers. It is said that it will be the largest comic celebration in history.

Alice even revealed to Meng Huo: "The concert of China's first-line stars can't reach the scale of your celebration."

But she just said such a sentence, but she strictly guarded the rest of the content, catching her appetite. Meng Huo was curious, so he couldn't help asking Xu Jing, but the old man just smiled and said, "Don't worry about it, kid. We will make arrangements."

Everyone kept the secret, Meng Huo had no choice but to give up.

Afterwards, the mid-term results of Ninghai No. 1 Middle School were released. Meng Huo was the third in the grade, and Shen Jie was the girl who was the first in the grade.

Shen Jie's studies have not regressed in the slightest. Music and voice actors are progressing rapidly, especially dubbing. Now some readers have discovered that there is a mysterious voice actor among the voice actors of "Pokemon" and "Fate/staynight".

This mysterious seiyuu is in charge of dubbing Saber. His awe-inspiring but beautiful voice has already captured the ears of many players. Therefore, a small group specializing in voice actors appeared on the He Xizhijia forum. Fortunately, Shen Jie's voice changed so much that no one suspected her for the time being.

And during the weekly holidays, Shen Jie would still actively come to Meng Huo's house. She kept a low profile a lot, but Meng Huo felt that she had become cunning. Shen Jie often seized some excellent opportunities to attack him, and several times made it difficult for him to parry.

In the last week of April, Bombay bought back a copy of "The Best Weekly Magazine".

Shen Jie sat beside him and planned to watch it with him. The girl hugged Meng Huo's hand happily and said, "Meng Huo, you have started to grow a beard."

At the age of sixteen, Meng Huo grew short hairy beards, which is a period every man must go through, and Meng Huo felt it a few days ago. This incident made him feel a little sad. After all, people still have to grow up, and he, who was reborn in the first life, will usher in the day of adulthood sooner or later.

Perhaps because of better food and environment, his beard appeared earlier than in his previous life.

The beard is very short and thin, like the fluff on the body surface. Meng Huo didn't plan to shave it. His beard was very light. He shaved it for the first time when he was twenty years old in his previous life. In fact, many boys' beards are like this for the first time. This kind of beard will stop growing when it grows to a certain length, which is very inconspicuous.

But once you shave once, your beard changes. It will thicken, darken, grow rapidly - and this is a sign of maturity, which means that a man's life has an extra job that needs to be cleaned up frequently.

Meng Huo is only sixteen years old now, and he doesn't want to do this job yet.

So he ignored Shen Jie's words, put "Weekly Boutique" on the table, and prepared to tear the film off.

This made Shen Jie slightly unhappy: "Why are you not surprised at all, shouldn't boys show that they hate beards at this time?"

Meng Huo said with a faint smile, "If I expressed surprise, do you have any other thoughts?"

During this period of time, he found that Shen Jie was getting more and more sophisticated, as long as she was given a chance, she would definitely do something surprising.

"It's still you who understand me..." Shen Jie narrowed her eyes and smiled: "If you say you hate beards, I can pat my chest and promise you: let me do the troublesome thing of shaving your beard! ——Isn’t he handsome?”

She was full of fantasies that she could help the grown-up Meng Huo take care of his clothes and shave, and then send him out every day. Maybe many girls hate these things, but this is Shen Jie's romance, and she hopes to have such an intimate lover.

"really……"

Meng Huo sighed, Shen Jie is like this now, her growth rate is amazing, she used to confess directly, but now she has learned to capture men with sweet words.

These words may not make much sense once or twice, but after listening for a long time, it will indeed make people sink.

This girl is too perfect, she has many elements that make Meng Huo envious, but...

"..."

Meng Huo shook his head, he didn't say anything, he tore open the "Weekly Boutique", and was attracted by the content on the cover. Under the title on the cover, there is such a sentence: This issue of Quick Report - "The Sequel to Sherlock" has come to a wonderful conclusion!

"It's over?" Shen Jie saw the words on the cover, her eyes widened in surprise: "It's over!"

This is impossible, Zhong Xia company gave up the agreement?

Meng Huo was shocked. He quickly opened the manga, and his eyes stayed on the text of "The Sequel to Detective Sherlock" for a moment. ——

"New serialization next week, Duke Anthony's life-long painstaking efforts, the second part of "Sherlock" is genuine, hundreds of millions of people are waiting for it, Son of Sherlock - "Son of Detective" serialization begins!"

After reading this sentence, Meng Huo understood everything. He knew the reason why "Sherlock Sequel" is so fast-paced.

That comic wasn't really a sequel at all, but rather a setting for an additional ending to Sherlock from forty years ago.

"The Detective Sherlock Sequel" tells the story of the process of Sherlock falling in love with a female detective in China.

"What an amazing twist..."

Meng Huo laughed, "One Piece" will not be lonely anymore.
