The riot was just an episode, after that, everything returned to calm.

In the following weeks, the progress of both Phoenix and China Xia Wei accelerated.

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

However, at this time, Meng Huo was not in a hurry to sell One Piece. Now he has the advantage and the cards can be placed. Zhongxia must have other actions. They are too calm. The publicity campaign in the weeks after the commotion is limited. It is more like solidifying the current popularity than breaking through sales.

And "The Detective Sherlock Sequel" is even more strange. After a few weeks in "Weekly Boy", Hui Yuanai's character popularity voted first. But the popularity of "The Detective Sherlock Sequel" is also undiminished. Even in the "Weekly Boutique", this comic has a turnout rate of 30%, ranking first.

The comics of "Weekly Boutique" are all selected from "Summer Magazine", and they have been selected one more in the past few weeks. The high number of votes in "Detective Sherlock Sequel" proves that it is indeed the best comic in Zhongxia, and Li Xin's strength should not be underestimated.

But the reason for this phenomenon, Meng Huo observed for a few weeks and found that there are other answers-the plot of "The Detective Sherlock Sequel" is developing very quickly.

The content of each issue of this comic is very good, the story is very fast, the female detective came out and Sherlock’s battle of wits "　" over and over again, and the relationship between the two has increased sharply, letting readers finish the end tendency.

"The Detective Sherlock Sequel" is like a full-powered car, it does not intend to leave any foreshadowing, directly "　" straight to the end, of course, this makes readers who follow it hooked.

"He's crazy?"

Meng Huo didn't understand why Zhongxia Company or Li Xin did this. There is still a long time for the release of the single book, but at their speed, the story will be finished soon. It's cool. What should I do later?

He had a hunch that Zhongxia might have a late move. So temporarily I left One Piece and focused my mind on the plot of "Detective Conan", which allowed the sales of "Weekly Shonen" to rise steadily.

In other respects, the cooperation between Phoenix Company and Huamei has deepened. Huamei Bookstore is satisfied with the results brought by Meng Huo. What a pity they will promote with Phoenix. Both companies can benefit from this.

Meng Huo occasionally returns to the company to check the progress of other work. The comics, animations, and games are all going well, and the employees are 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 books and accompany Li Qin. This makes Li Qin happy. Alice is still busy with work. She seems to be very busy during the holidays, and will come over only a few times when she receives the manuscript.

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

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

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

Alice even revealed to Meng Huo: "The concerts of Chinese first-line stars are not up to the scale of your celebration."

However, she only said such a sentence, and she kept her appetite for other content. Meng Huo was curious. He couldn't help asking Xu Jing, but the old man just smiled and said, "You kid, don't worry about it. We will arrange it."

Everyone kept the secret, and Meng Huo had to give up.

Subsequently, the midterm results of Ninghai No. 1 Middle School were released. Meng won the third grade, and the first grade was the girl Shen Jie.

Shen Jie's studies did not degrade in the slightest. The progress of music and voice actors is flying fast, especially in dubbing. Now some readers have discovered that there is a mysterious voice actor in the voice actors list of "Pokemon" and "Fate/staynight".

This mysterious voice actor is responsible for the dubbing of Saber, and that dignified but beautiful voice has long captured the ears of a large number of 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 doubted her for the time being.

During the weekly holidays, Shen Jie would still actively come to Meng Huo's house. She kept a low profile a lot, but she felt more cunning for Meng Huo. Shen Jie often seizes some wonderful opportunities to launch an offensive against him, and on several occasions it makes him difficult to resist.

In the last week of April, Mumbai returned a copy of "Weekly Boutique".

Shen Jie sat beside him and planned to watch with him. The girl held Meng Huo's hand with joy and said, "Meng Huo, you are starting to grow a beard."

At the age of sixteen, Meng Huo had a short hairy beard. This is a period that every man must go through. Meng Huo felt it a few days ago. This incident made him feel a touch of sorrow. After all, people still have to grow up. He, who is reborn for the first time, will sooner or later usher in his adulthood.

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

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

However, once shaved once, the beard will change. It will become thicker, darker, and grow rapidly-and this is a symbol of maturity, representing that boys' lives have an extra work that needs to be cleaned up frequently.

Meng Huo is only sixteen years old now, and he does not want to do this work.

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

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 smiled faintly: "If I am surprised, do you have any ideas?"

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 act astonishing.

"You know me..." Shen Jie squinted and smiled: "If you say you hate beards, I can pat your chest and promise you: I will do the troublesome thing like shaving your beard! -Isn't it handsome?"

She is full of illusions that she can help Meng Huo grow up with his clothes and shave, and then send him out every day. Maybe there are many girls who hate these things, but this belongs to Shen Jie's romance. She hopes that there will be such a close lover.

"really……"

Meng Huo sighed. This is how Shen Jie is now. She grew up at an amazing speed. She confessed directly before, but now she has learned to capture men with sweet words.

These words may not feel much once or twice, but listening to them for a long time will indeed sink people.

This girl is too perfect, she has many elements in her body that make Meng enviable, 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 of the cover, there is a sentence: This issue of the news-"The Detective Sherlock Sequel" is over!

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

This is impossible~lightnovelpub.net~Zhongxia Company gave up the agreement?

Meng Huo was shocked. He quickly turned over the cartoon, and paused for a moment in the body of "The Detective Sherlock Sequel", then skimmed directly to the last page of the cartoon, looking at the place where the next notice should have been written. ——

"Next week's new serialization, Duke Anthony's life's hard work, the second part of the genuine "Sherlock", hundreds of millions of people are waiting, the son of Sherlock-"The Son of the Detective" serial starts!"

After reading this sentence, Meng Huo understood everything. He knew the reason for the fast pace of "The Detective Sherlock Sequel".

That manga is not a real sequel at all, but an explanation of the background. It is a supplementary ending to "Sherlock" 40 years ago.

"The Detective Sherlock Sequel" tells the process of Sherlock's love with the female detective in China. This is a foreshadowing, and the purpose is to elicit their children, the protagonist of "The Son of the Detective".

"What an amazing turn..."

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