Two days later, the four of Meng Huo started their trip to the hot springs.

"Let me see, it seems to be going this way..."

Shen Jie and Yoshida Keiko looked at the map to discuss directions. At this moment, several young people came from afar, and a girl bumped into Meng Huo.

"oops……"

She yelled and fell to the ground. Meng Huo didn't receive much impact. He was a little surprised, but he stretched out his hand and pulled the girl up: "Are you okay?"

"Hi." The girl replied in Far East, then smiled, and said in Chinese: "I'm fine, thank you."

She got up and left with her companion.

"You?" Did the people in the Far East Region use their words too politely? Meng Huo looked back, and the young people were playing and leaving in the distance.

"I touched his hand..."

"He's so polite..."

Although some couldn't hear what they were talking about, Meng Huo had a strange feeling: "I said, isn't it a bit strange here?"

"strangeness?"

Shen Jie heard the voice, turned her head to look around, and then said, "No."

Meng Huo had no choice but to attribute this matter to his own worries. They found a hot spring hotel, which was a quaint hotel with a strong classical atmosphere, and the rooms inside were all sliding wooden doors.

The proprietress who was over the middle of the year took them to the room and reminded them when they left.

"Several guests, our hotel usually doesn't have many customers, but a lot of young people have come here in the past two days. The activities of those young people are a bit abnormal, you'd better not have any contact with them."

She bowed politely, then walked away slowly.

Meng Huo and the others didn't take it seriously either. This hot spring trip was free, and they didn't have much privilege to enjoy. After settling down and saluting, the four entered the restaurant of the hotel for dinner.

There were already quite a few young people in the restaurant with the wooden dining table. When eating, Meng Huo always felt that the atmosphere was a bit wrong, and occasionally he could hear the sound of 'clicking', similar to a mobile phone taking pictures.

"Is someone watching us?"

he asked in a low voice.

"No...Meng Jun. You are worrying too much."

Yoshida Keiko replied with a smile, Li Qin didn't notice any abnormalities, but Shen Jie frowned slightly, her face was a little cold.

After eating, it's time to take a shower. Because it is a hot spring trip, the hotel provides them with the best hot spring. The three women were chatting in the room, and Meng Huo went out first.

Not long after he left, Shen Jie left the room and walked around. After observing for a while, an alarm rang in her head.

"Meng Huo!"

Shen Jie broke into the place where Meng Huo was soaking in the hot spring, and the latter frowned. Before he could react, he saw Shen Jie walking quickly to a bush, and lifted the girl who was peeping out of it.

"Crackling!"

Shen Jie took the camera out of the girl's hand, put it on the ground and crushed it with her feet. Her face was like frost, and she stared at the girl bitterly: "Do you want to dig out your eyes yourself, or I will dig them out for you!"

"Don't, don't... I didn't see anything!" The girl fell to the ground and explained in a panic: "Ms. He Xi has been wearing shorts all the time. I really didn't see anything, and I didn't take pictures!"

That's what she said, but her face was flushed, and she was obviously very excited to see it.

"Teacher He Xi?" Meng Huo put on his clothes and walked over. He reached out to stop Shen Jie from moving. The girl didn't lie. Ever since Shen Jie broke in last time, Meng Huo would always wear a pair of shorts in the hot springs.

He knelt down and asked in a cold voice, "How do you know what I'm sorry about?"

The girl was a little scared, so she told about the gathering of fans. Many readers of He Xi came to this city, and there are more than a dozen of them in this hotel. However, these readers agreed not to reveal their identities in front of Meng Huo. Afraid of scaring him away, they wanted to observe first.

However, there were also quite a few fanatics who came here, and the matter was easily exposed by Shen Jie.

That night, Meng Huo called all the readers in the hotel out of the restaurant, and these young people sat together awkwardly. There were also some people who looked angrily at the girl who caused them to be discovered.

Meng Huo wanted to teach them a lesson, but at this moment, the phone rang. The caller ID was Alice, and Meng Huo walked out of the restaurant to connect.

"Shen Jie told me everything, Meng Huo, this time is an opportunity, you should win over the readers in the Far East..."

Her words made Meng Huo frown slightly: "What do you mean?"

"The Far Eastern District is far away from Huaxia, and the company's market there is not big. If you can give readers a good impression..." Alice paused, and explained: "I think it will be very beneficial to the company's development. Dongfang has a population of 500 million, and you just happen to be on vacation, so let’s communicate with readers..."

Her starting point was that she didn't want Meng Huo to return to Ninghai sooner, but it was a good idea for Meng Huo.

It’s not enough for a cartoonist to be ungrounded. He also hopes to maintain a good interaction with his readers, instead of always having unexpected scenes like before.

Perhaps this is a good opportunity for experimentation, and he can use this to draw closer the relationship between himself and the readers.

"All right……"

Meng Huo nodded in agreement. He returned to the restaurant, put down his arrogance and temper, and chatted frankly with these readers.

He said that he just came to the Far East to travel and collect news, and he didn't want to get into trouble. And this, the readers are well aware, it is precisely because they noticed that Meng Huo was resting that they didn't have the idea of ​​revealing it before.

Meng Huo's unassuming, friend-like way of talking quickly aroused the joy of these readers.

"Teacher He Xi, don't worry, we won't hinder your vacation!"

"Yes, we will protect Teacher He Xi, you have a happy holiday..."

"Teacher He Xi, come to our Qiyu, I will take you to play!"

These readers' affection for Meng Huo increased greatly, and they expressed their willingness to help him spend this happy holiday, and invited him to travel around.

Their enthusiasm made Meng Huo burst into joy after being surprised. Perhaps he has been making mistakes. Meng Huo lacks communication with readers. As long as he communicates properly, these readers appear very open-minded.

Meng Huo decided to try it in the Far East, and then chose a similar strategy after returning to Ninghai.

In this way, Meng Huo's travels in the Far East opened a new stage. He has been welcomed by readers everywhere, and not only has the cost of travel been greatly reduced. Even Li Qin has changed her view of readers.

Of course, there are occasional troubles, but these troubles are often solved by other readers when they are not serious.

Most of the readers are sensible, and they have a sincere attitude towards Meng Huo. They love Meng Huo and are willing to think about him. Taking the initiative to help him solve his troubles, Meng Huo felt that this was something that many celebrities could not do.

He was very happy, so he couldn't help staying in the Far East for a while.

And at this time, the production of "Fate/staynight" came to an end, with only the last three days left.

Alice heard He Qian talk about Meng Huo's plan to sell games on the forum. So he called Meng Huo to ask.

"Yes, I plan to sell it on the forum, is it almost finished?"

Meng Huo was very surprised when he received the call: "Then I'll come back right away. I'm going to open a new section in He Xi's House, and I have to record a song."

"Song?" The game hasn't been released yet, and Alice doesn't want Meng Huo to come back. She quickly stopped her and said, "It's okay, don't worry, if you want to record a song, I have friends in the Far East, and I will ask them to help you record."

"And you have been taken care of by many readers over there, why not say goodbye to them with that song."

"Well... that's fine."

Meng Huo thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.

"I will arrange the time. What song is that? Do you need dubbing?"

"No, it's just a piano piece..."

"That would be more convenient..."

Alice was relieved and hung up the phone. After hanging up, she found He Qian and told her about it, and asked her to prepare for the production of the "Castle in the Sky" section.

After completing this work, Phoenix Company also arrived at off-duty time.

Alice came to the game production department and expressed her gratitude to the employees: "Thank you for your hard work. The game is still finished in three days. Everyone, go home and have a good rest. Just work harder in the next few days!"

Her words sparked an enthusiastic response in the department. Employees clapped their hands in celebration, and some left work cheering. However, after more than ten minutes, nearly half of the people in the department hadn't left, and there was a sense of death in the air.

"What's wrong?"

Alice noticed something unusual and couldn't help asking.

"Miss Alice..." It didn't take long. A game designer came out and asked, "After the production of "Fate/staynight" is completed, what should we do? It seems that the company has not prepared a second game, right?"

Alice was taken aback for a moment, and then another painter came out.

"Miss Alice, Mr. He Xi's game has given us cartoonists a job. Now the serialization standard of "Weekly Shonen" is higher, and many of us may not be able to draw serialized cartoons in their entire lives."

He said: "I had a lot of fun working on Fate/staynight, I loved it, but it's coming to an end... When it's over, what are we going to do?"

The artist's words were echoed by many cartoonists. Seeing this scene, Alice's eyes gradually became complicated.

"You like this game very much?"

"yes I like it very much."

"I think this game is the best work of Mr. He Xi. His thoughts are most thoroughly expressed in the game. And I like the production process very much. I work hard for the character stories set by Mr. He Xi - I feel very happy .”

Those present were of the same opinion.

Alice was a little moved. She didn't expect that Meng Huo's decision would change so many employees.

But yes, although the cost of galgame is low, it needs a lot of people. "Fate/staynight" has given many people the opportunity to work. If it ends, what should the employees do?

Will the Phoenix Company be shaken by this?

Alice thought for a while, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She gritted her teeth and promised: "I know what you mean, don't worry, after this game is over, the company will definitely not revoke the animation production department."

"I will ask Teacher He Xi to let him launch a new game work!"
