In January, the cold air from Siberia enveloped Suhua's sky. In this cold season, Li Qin asked Alice to bring Meng Huo a cotton coat.

"Thank you, trouble you." It was a weekend, Meng Huo's rare day off, and Alice arrived at noon.

"No trouble, I was going to have a look, and I brought the clothes for you." Alice laughed, but she was not telling the truth. Since Shen Jie was arranged on the comic island, Alice returned to Su Hua's time is getting less and less, and the work here is basically handed over to Shen Jie.

Alice seldom leaves Ninghai. In fact, Xu Jing has already delegated most of the work to her. Her power is basically the same as that of the president. Many people know that she is being trained to become the next president.

Next year or the year after, Xu Jing will officially hand over the work to Alice to choose to retire-this old man has nothing to ask for and already wants to leave the company. Of course, he also sought Meng Huo's opinion and asked him if he would let Alice take over as the president. Of course, Meng Huo did not object.

He is not interested in the position of president, it saves worry and effort to Alice.

However, although the two have met less, the relationship is not very strange, and Alice does not feel uneasy in her heart. This is a completely different psychology from the past. She will not reduce the time spent with Meng Huo now. And feel uneasy.

Nevertheless, Alice will miss Meng Huo occasionally, and she cherishes every opportunity to meet Meng Huo. This time, Shen Jie knew that she hadn't seen Meng Huo for a long time, and took the initiative to avoid it today-of course Meng Huo didn't know about it.

When he invited Alice to lunch, he thought that Shen Jie had something to go out today.

The lunch was prepared by Meng Huo himself. Alice saw that he was wearing casual clothes and asked, "Don't go out to socialize today?"

"Well, I want to take a day off. By the way, consider thinking about the paper."

"paper?"

"Graduation thesis."

Meng Huo said that his usual work is still as much as before, but in the first two weeks. The title of the graduation thesis of the three schools has been determined. There are still several months before the deadline for the papers, but Meng Huo wants to finish them soon.

If everything goes well. He plans to pass the review of the thesis after the Chinese New Year, so that his study pressure will be greatly reduced in the next semester, and there will be no trouble in internship.

"The three schools will give priority to sending teachers to help me review the paper, and I can accept the defense earlier than others." Meng Huo laughed: "The principal Xing said I don't have to wait for everyone to respond together. The movement is too loud."

"Indeed, it's easier to deal with your graduation alone." Alice nodded.

The graduation season every year is a busy season for universities, and the review and defense of the thesis is also a hassle, if Meng Huo and other students participate in the defense at the same time. Maybe it will add a lot of trouble to the school because of his identity.

But this way, Meng Huo’s time is a bit tight. The preparation of the thesis is a very professional activity. In addition, he also has the status of the "Gao Entrance No. 1 Scholar" and "Big Star". It is unlikely that ordinary papers will pass. The quality of the paper must be very demanding.

Alice came out with an idea to help: "Do you need me to give you pointers? The graduation thesis is a very particular topic, and you may not be able to do it well if you look at the template. My graduation thesis that year was rated as an excellent thesis. , How much can I help you a little bit."

Meng Huo naturally wouldn't refuse, and smiled and nodded: "Then I beg you."

In fact, he doesn't worry that his paper is not well written, but he is a bit clueless now. Having a skilled hand can save her a lot of troubles and avoid detours. Neither Shen Jie nor Qin Ya can help her. Alice is a good choice.

In this way, after lunch, Alice instructed Meng Huo on how to write his graduation thesis. After busying all afternoon, Meng Huo remembered all the points that needed attention, and had a conclusion on the outline and content of the paper. It's almost time to get started.

His efficiency exceeded Alice's expectations. It took her more than half a month to determine the high-quality thesis topics and outlines, and Meng Huo determined the structure of the three papers in half a day.

That being said. The two were still busy until seven o'clock in the evening, and Meng Huo saw that it was already so late. So I took Alice out for dinner. They didn't go far and found a restaurant on the local streets of Manga Island. After eating, I didn't do anything else, and went home while taking a walk.

There are not many pedestrians on the streets of Manga Island. The main reason is that it is too cold. The cold wind makes most tourists walk into the shops on the street.

"It's hard to see such a quiet street." Alice pulled her scarf to cover her face, but the breath from her mouth still showed a white mist in the air, showing how cold the air on the street is.

Meng Huo looked at Alice quietly. Her blond hair, which looked so soft under the light, was now as warm as the moonlight, making Meng Huo not feel the chill of the air in his heart.

For some reason, he is very happy now.

Alice and Shen Jie have different heights, but because of this simple difference, Meng Huo will never confuse the two of them. Shen Jie has a Chinese standard female height. She is half a head shorter than Meng Huo. When standing next to him, she looks like a golden height match to outsiders.

And Alice is a bit taller than Shen Jie. She is almost the same as Meng Huo, and when she stands with him, she will take away the sight of some outsiders. The white figure is too tall in the eyes of Chinese people. This is a natural charm, and this charm is the most profound in Meng Huo's eyes.

He always looked at Alice in a way that was close to head-up. In front of her, Meng Huo felt that he could not have the upper hand, and she was always easy to see through.

"This woman is special..." He always thinks about it when he looks at Alice. Regardless of his height or appearance, he can't see Alice and other women in the same line of sight.

Sometimes Meng Huo would lose his eyes by Alice when he was not paying attention. Perhaps it was precisely because of her height that Meng Huo still couldn't put Alice and Shen Jie on the same level in his heart, because Alice had always been taller in his heart, as well as more mature and older.

"I probably..." During this walk, Meng Huo suddenly understood why he liked Alice in the first place, probably because what he longed for was someone older than himself-perhaps, he had a kind of love for mothers. .

In his last life, Li Qin died when he was a teenager. This created a lot of shadow in his heart. He yearned for someone who could take care and lead himself like a mother, and Alice was just this kind of person.

If he did not succeed in saving Li Qin in this world. It might be difficult for Meng Huo to let Alice go...

"No, it's impossible to let go!" He shook his head secretly. In fact, Meng Huo now has a hard time letting go of Alice. If Li Qin is not there and he still met Alice when he was fifteen years old, he must have married Alice home.

But that was impossible after all-Meng Huo followed Alice and found that she suddenly stopped moving forward.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

"That..." Alice pointed to a figure shop on the side of the street and said with a smile: "Let's go in and have a look, it just happens that I have a figure that I want to buy."

Meng Huo nodded and followed her into the shop: "What are you going to buy?"

"Black Prince Lelouch... buy it back and put it in the bedroom of the apartment." Alice said. I found it in the store: "Maybe I can buy one for Shen Jie too..."

Meng Huo followed and looked around the small shop. The figures and various surroundings in the small shop were densely packed, and standing inside had a very warm feeling.

He didn’t care about Alice’s actions, he was also curious to observe the merchandise in the store. On the most conspicuous cabinet, there was a place with the label “Hot” written on it. "Fate/" and "Shakugan no Shana" are the main ones.

Meng Huo walked over curiously and reached out to pick up a sample of Shana and flipped it through. It felt very good. The details are also very exquisite, not inferior to the hands of the same period in the previous life. Some people always treat the handle as an ordinary toy, but this is actually a misunderstanding. The real hand-made workmanship and materials are quite particular, and the price is not cheap.

The hottest figures in the store are hundreds of thousands at the lowest, and thousands are more expensive, especially the two limited edition figures placed in the middle: one is a Saber who stands with a sword, and the other is Shana who draws a sword. The price of these two figures is 1899, which is quite expensive.

"Are you going to buy it too?"

At this time, Alice had already selected the products, walked to Meng Huo's side to take a look, and said, "These are the two most popular figures recently, and they are out of stock."

"Do you even know this kind of thing?"

"Zhou Qian specially reported to me."

Alice explained. With the recent two anime hits, the figures of Saber and Shana are very popular-and these two are new products. In addition to them, other characters' figures are also selling very well.

Since the new animation was broadcast. In a few weeks, the turnover of the hand-made has approached one-third of the animation copyright income.

"So that's it, Zhou Qian did a good job!" Meng Huo smiled. Phoenix's peripheral industries are growing rapidly, and the figure is only part of it. Zhou Qian has slowly opened up the market that she manages, but there is still more room for growth in the future.

The peripheral benefits of animations that Meng Huo has seen in his previous life are much larger than it is now. The basic animations do not rely on the copyright fees for broadcasting to make money, but rely on subsequent bd and various peripheral products-even many animation companies are selling peripherals. Just to do animation.

Huaxia’s surrounding markets have not yet been developed on a large scale. Except for Phoenix’s Manga Island and Zhongxia’s base in Ninghai, other cities have just begun activities such as Manzhan, and there is still a lot of room for development in the future. .

After buying the figure, Meng Huo and the two went outside.

"Yeah!"

They suddenly met an acquaintance at the door, He Qian, although Meng Huo and Alice had already done disguise, but how familiar He Qian and Meng Huo were, and Alice’s body shape was also very conspicuous, she recognized them at a glance : "Teacher He Xi, Miss Alice, why are you here!?"

"He Qian, good evening."

"Are you here to buy the figure?"

Alice asked.

"Yes, let me see if there are any new products..." He Qian smiled, and then suddenly remembered something, turned her head and said to Meng Huo: "Teacher, the game is about to be finished. I have invited you several times. How are you? Don't come to us to check."

"Sorry, I haven't had much time lately!" Meng Huo apologized. There is still a long time before the game was released, so he is not in a hurry, and has always asked the game department to modify it first.

"The game you are talking about is "White Album 2", right? It's almost finished?" Alice asked He Qian, this new text adventure game has not yet been announced, but Alice knows the name, "White Album" 2", a love triangle game.

"Yes, that's the weird "White Album 2"!" He Qian smiled and said: "Obviously "White Album 1" hasn't come out yet, so the teacher just chose the name of 2. It's not weird!"

"indeed……"

Alice glanced at Meng Huo. The name of this "White Album 2" caused a lot of controversy among Phoenix people who knew*. Many people suggested to change the name: "Meng Huo, you really don’t plan to play Before launching, remove that 2 word from the name?"

Meng Huo shook his head: "I haven't considered it yet. There is a 1 in front of 2. I don't know if it will be launched in the future..."

"Since you’re not sure if you will launch 1 work, teacher, why do you think so much... 1 hasn’t come out yet 2, or you’d better change the order of "White Album 2" and turn this "White Album 2" into " "White Album", 1 will be released in the future, so it will be changed to "White Album 2"!" He Qian said.

"This can't work, the timeline of 1 is before 2..."

Meng Huo said ~lightnovelpub.net~ but he thought about it, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong, just like "fate/" was the predecessor of "fate/". In fact, he doesn't have to worry about 1 or 2. If "White Album 1" is released in the future, he won't have to write it before.

"I seem to be turning my head a bit." Meng Huo patted his head and rejected what he said just now: "What you said makes sense. I'd better change "White Album 2" to "White Album"."

He looked at He Qian with a happy face and asked, "But will changing the name cause trouble for game production?"

"No, it's not troublesome at all!" He Qian immediately shook her head. The game was almost finished, but it was not finished yet. She just asked the members to change the title, and there was no need to make major changes in the content.

Meng Huo felt relieved: "Let's do it, you change it next week."

"No problem!" He Qian responded happily, then looked at the two Meng Huo and smiled: "Then I won't bother you, teacher, and go in first."

She waved her hand, and then walked into the hand-run shop. Meng Huo and Alice walked side by side to the apartment, and the ordinary day passed. (To be continued)
