Is this cartoonist mentally ill?!

Chapter 28 Sudden Turn (Part 1)

After all, Ayumi Ito is just a new publisher. For this plot that seems a bit problematic, she still chooses to believe Lin Qingshan, the author.

And it turns out that Lin Qingshan is also a new cartoonist, and the current popularity of his works is not very high compared to that of veteran cartoonists.

At its peak popularity, it barely made the top 10, although it received some attention from the comics industry's editorial department.

But it's just a little attention.

But he is a newcomer after all.

Therefore, it did not attract the attention of other editors, not even editor-in-Chief Yang Dahai.

At the same time, Ayumi Ito chose to believe Lin Qingshan and did not ask for the opinion of other senior editors and editor-in-Chief Yang Dahai.

In all, the latest issue of "Comic World" was quickly printed at the factory, and then sent to various subscribers, magazine stands and newsstands.

As a subscriber, Fan Siwei received the new issue of "Comic World" at his doorstep on weekends.

"Thank you, Uncle postman."

He held up the magazine and newspaper and said politely.

"You're welcome."

The postman continued driving with a smile and went to deliver the next newspaper and magazine subscription.

Fan Siwei immediately took the magazine and newspaper upstairs. After putting Fan's father's newspaper on the tea table in the living room, he immediately rushed into the room with the new issue of "Comic World".

He couldn't wait to open the magazine. During this time, he gradually became a fan of "edgerunner".

Mostly, he was fascinated by the strange and confusing future technology in the world of "edgerunner" and the exquisite paintings.

Various modified prostheses, including weapon prostheses such as Maine, modified sword-style prostheses, and unimaginable hacker-style prostheses, which can hack the opponent's network and prosthetic system as soon as they are launched, causing the opponent to fall or the opponent's prosthetic body to malfunction.

This would mean directly abandoning human limbs and installing mechanical prostheses. Even the brain would be modified and connected to the network.

This is not to say that other works of science fiction do not have the concept of mechanical prosthetics.

But to directly and voluntarily abandon the body and limbs as in "edgerunner" is considered madness.

In another science fiction, a metal prosthetic body is installed only after a person loses an arm or a leg.

But in the world of "edgerunner", even if there are no problems with limbs and organs, they actively give up their human limbs and install mechanical prostheses.

It is as if "flesh and blood are weak and the machine is flying high"!

It also has the brain-computer access that everyone else has, which is even crazier!

It is this kind of difficult, almost crazy science fiction setting that attracts many comic book fans.

As for the plot?

To be honest, the current plot of "edgerunner" is not exciting.

The story model in which the protagonist is oppressed and humiliated because of poverty, finds a group of friends after an unexpected opportunity and begins to rise to the top of life is almost bad.

At most, the cartoonist named Qingshan who drew "edgerunner" is a bit unconventional.

The mother of the protagonist died suddenly, and in fact there was a hidden cause of death - it was because of the scavenger who treated the disease.

If it weren't for the previous interview, no one would know that the real cause of David's mother Gloria's death was because the medicanics directly disassembled her to get her prosthetic body.

In addition, the heroine is a little unconventional and betrays the hero.

Although the male protagonist received a blessing in disguise and joined the team of his older brother Maine.

But it's really unexpected.

In addition, the paintings of "edgerunner" are really beautiful.

Fan Siwei felt that many of the scenes could be used as posters.

The composition of the picture, the accuracy of the painting and the composition of the colors inexplicably reveal an artistic sense.

This also proves that professor Qingshan who drew "edgerunner" is definitely a diligent and talented cartoonist.

Such a beautiful comic must have taken a lot of effort to draw.

What a genius who loves comics and his own works.

Diligent and talented geniuses always manage to easily win the favor of others.

It is precisely because of these elements that Fan Siwei is today a faithful reader of "edgerunner".

Even having a habit of bringing magazines and novels back to school, he also developed some "edgerunner" fans at school.

Of course, they only read during class, and after reading The Last Comic Book, they gathered to discuss the setting and plot of "edgerunner".

Fan Siwei first found the latest serialization of "edgerunner" according to the page number, and then began to read it directly.

In the plot of the previous episode, David relied on the powerful bullet time ability of "sandevistan" to continuously help the Maine team complete one mission after another.

He gradually integrated into the team and became familiar with team members such as Pilar, Rebecca and Kiwi.

However, at the same time, David's eyes that paid attention to Lucy and his different feelings for Lucy are also slowly revealed in the comics, and are seen by Maine and Dorio.

Maine specially arranged for Lucy to take David to run and train at night.

In the process of living together, Lucy seemed to begin to have reciprocal feelings because of David's warm and vague feelings.

When Lucy was smoking and looking at David with complicated eyes, Maine saw all this and showed a significant smile.

David began to get stronger and stronger. At the same time, he again found a doctor from the black market and began to help him gradually implant and transform prostheses to increase his strength.

In the process, David and Maine began to understand Lucy's past during their conversation.

"Kiwi brought her here a year ago and said she was a native genius."

Maine said while talking to David.

"And before that?"

David asked, wanting to know more about Lucy.

"I don't know the details. If you want to know, ask yourself."

"My focus is... if they can work with me."

Maine looked at David with a smile and said.

David immediately smiled and said,"I think so."

The two looked at each other, smiled and clenched their fists. The contrast between Maine's huge fist turned into a prosthetic weapon and David's original Fist was extremely obvious.

But Fan Siwei smiled happily. This kind of friendship between men is so good.

So far, the plot of this episode has continued the relaxed and happy atmosphere of the previous two episodes.

David was happy to integrate into the Maine team and find a partner. In that team he met the human, mature and powerful older brother, Maine, his girlfriend Dorio, who is very caring and understanding, and the funny and raunchy Pilar, Kiwi, who. he is quiet but has excellent hacking skills, and Rebecca, who is extremely annoyed with Pilar but kind to him.

The previous part of this chapter was narrated all the time. Maine's male friendship and the ambiguous emotions between him and Lucy.

All this was so beautiful and completely swept away David's previous embarrassment, desolation and helplessness.

However...
