Chapter 8 Grandmaster

"Haha, my place is very simple, please forgive me."

Lin Qingshan held Pochita and placed it in one of the few corners of the room where nothing was placed.

He also put the doghouse in place, and then opened a pack of dog food for Pochita and put some canned food on it.

Gu Qianli looked at this familiar action and said immediately, "Mr. Lin, have you ever had a pet before?"

"I raised a kitten called Lv Shui. I got it from the mother cat in exchange for cat strips."

Lin Qingshan said.

To be precise, the kitten Lv Shui he had raised in his previous life was entrusted to him by the mother cat - the mother cat was run over by a car on the road and was almost dead.

Seeing how pitiful she was, Lin Qingshan often took the cat strips to feed her during the last period, and the mother cat finally entrusted Green Water to him.

Green water... Gu Qianli suddenly thought of Lin Qingshan's name. Green mountains and green water, the pet's name and the owner's name just matched.

It just feels a little strange.

but……

"Where's the kitten?"

Gu Qianli was stunned for a moment and asked.

"In my other home..." Lin Qingshan scratched his head, "It's just that I can't go back now."

Fortunately, my family bought a timed cat food dispenser for Lvshui in my previous life. The cat food placed in advance can last for half a month without any problem.

And Lv Shui is so smart, but he is still a tabby cat. If there is no cat food, he will probably look for food outside.

Although Lin Qingshan was a little worried, he still believed that Lv Shui would live well after he was gone.

"It turns out that Mr. Lin is not a local."

Gu Qianli suddenly realized.

"You can be considered half a local. I'm from Gusu, my hometown, but my mother is from Pudong, the magical city."

Lin Qingshan said with a smile.

He was talking about the previous life, but the original owner's ID card in this life was also from the Demon City.

"Then why does Mr. Lin want to rent a house by himself instead of living with grandpa?"

Gu Qianli asked again.

"My father and mother-in-law are long gone."

Lin Qingshan shrugged and said.

To be precise, he has no relatives in this life, so where can he find his grandparents?

"Ah...I'm sorry..." Gu Qianli immediately clasped his hands and apologized quickly.

"It's okay, there's nothing to apologize for." Lin Qingshan didn't care.

At this moment, Gu Qianli suddenly saw drawing papers on the old desk beside him.

She picked it up curiously, and there were vivid and beautiful cartoons on it.

"Mr. Lin is still a cartoonist?"

Her eyes lit up and she asked.

"It's barely enough. In fact, the main thing is to make a living."

Lin Qingshan thought for a while and said.

He probably can't be called a cartoonist. After all, you can't be called a cartoonist just by drawing a few pictures.

Cartoonists still need to be able to create, right?
But he is just a copycat, and he is still somewhat self-aware.

But he wasn't stupid, and he didn't directly tell him that he traveled to another world and became a copycat.

Although he does have a brain problem, mental illness and stupidity are two different things, right?

"You are very good at this painting...and this is your own work, right?"

Gu Qianli looked at the plots on the drawings and said.

This is the content that Lin Qingshan has just drawn to the end of the 23rd chapter. The corresponding plot is probably the end of the sixth episode of the previous life animation.

That is... the plot of David's eldest brother Mann becoming a cybermaniac and finally being killed by a terrorist mobile unit.

What Gu Qianli saw was the scene where Mann asked David to run.

"David...this is my end..."

"But you have to survive..."

"Aren't you faster than anyone else?"

"Now...let's run..."

……

This plot, as well as Mann's extremely numb eyes, even people like Gu Qianli who have never watched "Edge Walker" can't help but feel a little moved.

At the end, the scene freezes on David holding Mann's remaining arm in the car, eyes open and numb and silently crying.

"This is over."

After reading the drawings, Gu Qianli couldn't help himself, "Mr. Lin, are the early drawings for your work here? I want to take a look..."

It can be said that Lin Qingshan just happened to draw the most impactful plot and scene in the first half of "Edge Walker". Mann's numb face and David's face crying silently in the car after escaping are extremely impactful. and storytelling. It is almost as good as the painful face of Agni, the protagonist of another masterpiece "Fist of Fire".

It gives people who see it the feeling of wanting to read the entire comic.

However, Lin Qingshan scratched his head when he heard Gu Qianli's request, "Sorry... I only have chapters 7 to 23 here... well, that's the parts of the drawings you just saw, the first chapter before By the sixth episode, I’ve handed it in.”

"Ah, so Mr. Lin, your work is going to be serialized in a comic magazine? Which weekly magazine is it?"

Gu Qianli asked with a look of surprise on her pretty face.

"The comic world, it seems to be "Comic World Gogo"?"

Lin Qingshan said, "But it seems that the series will not start until next month."

"Next month... what's the name please..."

Gu Qianli felt a little regretful, but still asked.

"Cyberpunk 2077: Edgewalker."

Lin Qingshan replied.

"Cyberpunk 2077? Does this story take place in the future?"

Gu Qianli asked curiously again.

She is now full of curiosity about "Edge Walker".

Because the last plot, no matter the plot, the pictures, or the designed lines of the characters, it feels so good.

"Yes, the setting is a story that takes place in the future 2077."

Lin Qingshan said.

“So what does cyberpunk mean?”

Gu Qianli asked again.

Lin Qingshan thought for a while, he really knew this, after all, he had disk-based memory.

"It's cyberpunk in English... It seems like the word doesn't exist yet, so just think of it as a new vocabulary I formed using cyber and punk."

"Cyber ​​is the Internet and computers, and Punk should be music, right?"

As a female college student, Gu Qianli's English vocabulary is indeed not bad.

"It's almost the same, but Punk doesn't mainly refer to music. It refers to their thoughts that are more inclined to ideological liberation and anti-mainstream sharp stance. Cyber ​​mainly refers to Cybernetics, which means control and governance."

Lin Qingshan continued to explain, "Cyberpunk mainly means that in a world of extreme development and powerful capital, people have become insignificant creatures that are not worth mentioning. Due to the development of high technology, the dividing line between humans and machines begins to disappear, and artificial intelligence The development of intelligence has given birth to thoughtful androids, and conflicts have arisen between artificial intelligence, hackers, and large companies that control wealth. Marginal characters use high technology to escape collective consciousness and achieve individual freedom..."

He had checked the encyclopedia entry on cyberpunk in his previous life, and his disk-based memory allowed him to clearly remember the description of the entry, and he directly recited it on the spot.

"That means dystopia and anti-capital, right?"

Gu Qianli's eyes lit up and he said.

"Okay... It seems so. It is mainly reflected in high technology and low life."

Lin Qingshan scratched his head.

Wait... It seems that there is really no concept of cyberpunk in this world. He won't become the founder of the cyberpunk genre, right?

"That's good... In this world, the protagonist is David, right? Is he going to rise up against those capitalist bastards?"

Gu Qianli said excitedly.

"That's right."

Lin Qingshan thought there was nothing wrong and said.

"Such a story must be exciting! No wonder Mr. Lin, your work can be serialized in the comic world!"

Gu Qianli gave a thumbs up and said.

"Then, I will read Mr. Lin's works in the comic world. I will definitely vote for your works on the official website!"

She was a loyal reader of the comics industry and subscribed to "Comic World Gogo" every month. Lin Qingshan's "Edge Walker" happened to be serialized in the magazine, which allowed her to read it.

When the time comes for the reader survey on the official website, she will simply vote for "Edge Walker".

"This...haha, you don't have to force it."

Lin Qingshan didn’t pay much attention to this and said.

"Okay...Mr. Lin...it's getting late. It's time for me to leave."

At this moment, Gu Qianli suddenly remembered that she was just here to familiarize herself with the address of Lin Qingshan's home so that she could visit Pochita later.

However, the sketch of "Edge Walker" that Lin Qingshan put on the stage just now and Lin Qingshan's identity as a cartoonist aroused curiosity. After chatting with Lin Qingshan for a long time, he almost forgot that he had to go back now.

At this moment, she touched Pochita's cute little head, feeling a little reluctant.

Pochita obediently stuck out his tongue and licked the palm of her hand, and seemed to be reluctant to let go and roared twice, "Woof!"

"Okay, Miss Qianli, walk slowly."

Lin Qingshan nodded and said.

"Okay...there will be no classes then. I'll come see Pochita again."

Gu Qianli walked out to the door and left here after speaking.

 It seems to be poorly written...Does anyone read it, meow meow meow?
