Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

Zhou Wenwei and Ke Xinjie met and got along for half a year. They both had common hobbies and common topics of conversation. It was during the New Year that the two officially got together.

However, the relationship between the two did not change much because of this, except for holding hands and hugging when they got along, which seemed to be more intimate.

"I just woke up……"

Ke Xinjie said lazily on the phone.

It can be heard that she is still lying in bed.

"Lazy pig, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

Zhou Wenwei didn't care and said with a smile, "We'd better cook something if we go out to eat."

“There are too many people on weekends, and it’s not cost-effective to eat out.”

Ke Xinjie thought for a while and said, "Then let's go shopping for groceries. I'll cook for you myself. It just so happens that you can accompany me to catch up on the show. Hey, which new show did you mention last time?"

Being your own boss is much busier than working for someone else.

Especially coming back for the New Year, organizing the store, purchasing goods, and customizing signs for new New Year events have made Ke Xinjie very tired recently.

Fortunately, the other partner is her friend and can help her share the work a little bit.

As the direct person in charge of the store, Ke Xinjie inevitably has to undertake more work.

However...hard work also pays off. Since the opening of the nail salon, her own income last year reached 300,000 after tax.

As a senior programmer, Zhou Wenwei's income is about the same amount. Together, the two of them can barely be considered middle class in Shanghai.

There is nothing that can be done about it, after all, the strength of the Magic City is obvious to all.

Ke Xinjie hasn't read much comics recently, but she has taken some time to read comics in her busy schedule.

After all, it is more convenient to read comics on mobile phones now.

"No problem, tell me in advance when you are going to go out."

Zhou Wenwei said patiently.

"OK! But..."

Ke Xinjie's voice gradually became softer again, and she said, "Let me sleep a little longer..."

Zhou Wenwei heard the slight snore coming from the phone and hung up the phone with a smile.

…

noon.

"...Haha, my craftsmanship is pretty good!"

Ke Xinjie cleared away the empty dishes in front of her with satisfaction, and said proudly to Zhou Wenwei who was full.

Zhou Wenwei immediately saw this and praised his girlfriend very sensibly. He said with a playful smile, "Not bad, not bad! It tastes great!"

"Well, you dare to laugh at me, then you go wash the dishes."

Ke Xinjie said dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay, okay."

Zhou Wenwei raised his hands as if defeated, but he didn't mind washing the dishes.

After all, it was Ke Xinjie who took on the main job of cooking just now. He only helped wash and cut some of the ingredients. Now it would be no problem for him to take on the job of washing dishes.

"I'm going to make up for it!"

Ke Xinjie chuckled and said, "When you finish washing the dishes and wiping your hands, come over and watch the show with me!"

"OK, then I'll wash the dishes first."

Zhou Wenwei stood up and walked into the kitchen with the dishes.

Ke Xinjie got up and went to the living room to turn on the TV. The big membership of station C is common to all platforms, which also gives users great convenience.

Lin Qingshan originally hated the charging model that required additional memberships on different platforms. Of course, he advocated that members of Station C be used on all platforms instead of charging separately.

In addition, Station C now needs to accumulate word-of-mouth more than the membership money of circle of users. Once the word-of-mouth grows, it will become bigger and stronger, and then it will earn more from peripheral online shopping and advertising fees than the membership model charges.

Therefore, we also adopted such a model that is common to all platforms.

This indeed gives users an excellent experience. The most important thing is that they are not afraid of being scolded, but are afraid of lack of comparison. This approach of Station C is nothing to begin with.

However, when compared with the chaotic membership fees of other online platforms such as Youdou.com, users of Station C immediately praised it to the sky.

Coupled with the recent collaboration on two excellent semi-self-made new series and the second season of "Chainsaw Man" to attract traffic, Station C is really getting more and more prosperous now.

In this way, Zhou Wenwei worked hard in the kitchen to wash the dishes and chopsticks, very seriously, and also tidied up the kitchen.

And Ke Xinjie has already opened "Cut!" After reading "Crimson Eyes", she also took snacks and drinks, sat on the sofa and watched "Ze!" Crimson Eyes".

During the meal, Zhou Wenwei mainly praised this new series.

The recent "Cut!" "Crimson Eyes" is indeed becoming more and more popular. The exquisite production, gorgeous fighting, and high-energy plot in the first episode have attracted a lot of attention.

The protagonist Tazmi was taken back by the members of the "Night Raid Killer Group" after avenging two friends.

After realizing the darkness of the empire, and knowing that the "Night Raid Killer Group" is actually a secret force established by the GM army to oppose the rule of the decadent empire.

In peacetime, his main job is to accept the entrustment of the residents of the imperial capital to eliminate corrupt bureaucrats and villains. He is also responsible for fighting against the imperial imperial gear envoys and collecting the imperial gear. The ultimate goal is to assassinate the ministers, the source of corruption in the empire.

At the same time, it also throws out the most important setting in this animation-Teigu!

This is the most powerful extraordinary weapon in the world. It was used by the founding emperor of the empire about a thousand years ago to maintain the long-term rule of his descendants.

At that time, the empire's huge financial resources and power summoned the most senior craftsmen from all over the world.

They used legendary super dangerous species as raw materials, plus rare metals such as Ohri steel and a large number of long-lost secret techniques, to develop forty-eight powerful weapons that cannot be copied, and called them "Teigu".

After the birth of the Teigu, it helped the empire achieve brilliant results. However, five hundred years ago, large-scale riots occurred in the empire, and many Teigu were lost to the people and even abroad.

As for the killers of the "Night Raid Killer Group", almost everyone has a Teigu.

The "Teigu" in Akatomo's hand is called "One-Hit Kill: Demon Sword Murasame".

Once the enemy fighting Red Eyes is struck by this demonic sword, the wound will be infected with poison and die quickly. There is no antidote.

It is very famous as a demon sword that can kill with one strike, but it also has weaknesses. You must be careful when holding it in your hand. If you cut your finger, you will die instantly.

At the same time, if the opponent cannot be directly hit during the battle, the spell will not work, and it will also be ineffective against corpse dolls.

But even so, this terrifying weapon that kills with one hit can be killed even if it causes even a little damage. It can be said to be quite powerful.

But when she saw the name of this imperial weapon, Ke Xinjie was stunned for a moment and said, "Huh? Murasame? Isn't that the alchemy weapon of Brother Chu from "God Clan"?"

But she didn't just think that Lin Qingshan plagiarized "Gods". After all, the original text of "Gods" actually stated that the name Murasame actually came from Japanese allusions.

To be precise, it should be a novel "The Legend of the Eight Dogs by Satomi Minami".

Therefore, Lin Qingshan did not shy away from this name, and this can be regarded as a kind of interaction between him and his optimistic "Protoss".

And "Cut!" This interaction at the beginning of "Crimson Eyes" did attract some discussion. Even in the subsequent plot of "Magic City Ghoul" next door, the levels of the pair of ghouls are also D, C, B, A and S. And the subsequent higher 2S level and 3S level.

These are all reminiscent of the settings in "Protoss".

However, this kind of setting is used by the general public, so the similarity... The setting of the ghoul and the god hybrid species at most has the same name with the same species, and the abilities are different. Even if it is plagiarism, it is very reluctant.

Especially the shortcomings of ghouls are in terms of food types. The obvious shortcomings of hybrids are that the bloodline limit cannot exceed the limit. If it exceeds the limit, it will become a deadpool. There is also the rather inexplicable blood mourning.

Ke Xinjie only thought of this for a moment and continued to be immersed in "Ze!" In the plot of "Crimson Eyes".

In addition to the imperial weapon held by Akatomi "One-Hit Kill Demon Sword Murasame", the other imperial weapons held by the members of the "Night Raid Killer Group" are -

"Romantic Turret Pumpkin" held by the pink-haired girl with twin ponytails, Main.

This is a gun-shaped Teigu that can convert spiritual energy into shock waves, and its power increases depending on the level of crisis the user encounters.

The "King of Beasts·Lion King" held by the blond beast girl Leonai who abducted Tazmi into the "Night Raid Killer Group".

A belt-type Teigu that transforms oneself into a beast and drastically improves physical abilities. The sense of smell is also enhanced and allows the user to search for enemies.

"Operation Armor·Haunted by Evil Spirits" held by the muscular hunk Brand.

The armor-type Teigu is known for its super defensive power. It can greatly improve physical abilities and can become transparent in a short time. However, it places a great burden on the wearer and ordinary people will die if they wear it.

However, it usually exists as a sword, and when summoned, it turns into full-body armor.

"Breaking All Things - Ecstasy" held by Hill, a naturally stupid girl with glasses.

The scissor-shaped Teigu can cut anything in the world. Due to its high hardness, it can also be used for defense. Its hidden ability is to emit a wide range of dazzling light as a cover.

"The Ever-Changing Cross Tail" held by the green-haired boy Lubbock.

The strong linear Teigu can be used as a trap or a barrier to detect enemies. It also has the ability to restrain and cut off. It can also support friends to float in the air. Just like its nickname, it is ever-changing. It is a very versatile Teigu. .

However, the leader of the "Night Assault Killer Group", Najesitan, does not hold any Imperial Equipment, but this is because she is actually the holder of the Imperial Equipment "Romantic Turret Pumpkin" in Ma En's hands.

It was only after Ma Yin joined the "Night Raid Killer Group" that she transferred this Imperial Equipment to Ma Yin, so she did not have any Imperial Equipment.

In addition to the Imperial Equipment, this world also has powerful weapons called "Emperor Equipment". This was four hundred years after the founding of the Empire. The emperor at that time also tried to create replicas of the Imperial Equipment, but was unable to surpass the previous "Emperor Equipment". "tool", so it is called a second-class "vessel".

The setting of "Teigu" is quite outstanding, and the audience was continuously attracted by the plot of the first episode and this setting.

The same is true for Ke Xinjie. Anyway, she feels that "Behead!" "Crimson Eyes" is pretty cool.

And "Cut!" The subsequent second, third and fourth episodes of "Red Eyes" all tell what happened after the protagonist Tazmi joined the "Night Raid Killer Group".

The plot is relatively "royal".

He began to get to know his friends, including his eldest brother Brand, who cared about him so enthusiastically that it made people feel tight at the back door, Chi Tong, who seemed aloof but was actually cute and caring about his friends, and Ma, who had a strong personality and the classic twin-ponytailed tsundere attribute. Yin, Leonai with a bold personality, Lubbock who seems to be a bit lustful and immoral, Hill who is confused and natural, and Najehitan who has charisma.

These are very standardized roles.

The standard is almost assembly line.

But this is only for an old two-dimensional person like Ke Xinjie.

For viewers who are new to the trap, "Cut!" "Crimson Eyes" is a very good work, and these characters are also quite charming.

"Well, I told you it looks pretty."

Zhou Wenwei, who finally finished clearing the dishes, wiped his hands and walked out.

"It looks good, but it's too outrageous."

Ke Xinjie said, "It's said to be Teacher Qingshan's work... It really feels too strange. Except for the first episode, which is clearly the style of Teacher Qingshan's work, these episodes are not very similar..."

Zhou Wenwei sat next to her and said, "This is only the episode... Don't worry about the old thief Qingshan's style. He will probably start to use it later. You didn't watch "Chainsaw Man" from the beginning. Knife."

"Too……"

Ke Xinjie nodded and said, "Come and catch up with me... No spoilers allowed!"

"……Fine."

Zhou Wenwei, who originally wanted to say something, suddenly said with some regret.

Ke Xinjie couldn't bear it when she saw this, and then asked, "How about the show "Magic City Ghoul"?"

"I think it's pretty good..."

Suddenly Zhou Wenwei started chatting with Ke Xinjie.

The plot in the early and middle stages of "Magic City Ghoul" is destined to be a bit boring and depressing, but for comic fans who are familiar with Lin Qingshan, this is more like Lin Qingshan's style.

After Kaneki accidentally became a one-eyed "ghoul", he also passed Touka, who seemed to be an ordinary coffee shop clerk but was actually a super dangerous "S" class ghoul.

Not only Dong Xiang, but also the "antique" coffee shop where she works, the manager "Fang Gongshan" and other shop employees are ghouls.

They are all high-risk ghouls with names.

It's just that... they don't hunt humans for food like ordinary ghouls.

Instead, they chose to coexist peacefully with humans, because in addition to hunting, ghouls can also consume coffee to suppress and relieve their "appetite".

But this is also a temporary measure. The ghouls in the coffee shop still need to eat normally to stay alive.

Speaking of which, store manager Fang Gongshan also took Jin Mu to a place to show him his normal eating method——

That is to find the corpses of people who committed suicide or died in vain, and eat normally with an attitude of being grateful to them and praying for their death.

This method, I have to say, was unexpected by the audience. It also gave a new understanding of man-eating monsters such as store managers and ghouls.

This also caused some discussion among the audience.
