Resident Evil: Death Island is an animated movie, and its plot is not closely connected to the classic live-action Resident Evil movies, but it is completely unrelated.

It does have connections to the original game.

This movie has two male leads, and the one appearing now is called Chris Redfield.

He's a mature man, 1.85 meters tall and weighing close to 100 kilograms.

Lu Yibei felt that he inexplicably matched his dream.

"Before you spoke, that's probably the image I had of you." He said to Qingqian.

But now Qingqian's clear, cold voice had completely shattered his fantasy, and even the insomnia-induced headache made her tone a little soft and cute:

"This male lead is famous for killing his teammates, no wonder you always die early when we play shooting games..."

Lu Yibei: "..."

Thank you for putting my noob skill so tactfully.

After a female character with a ponytail appeared, Lu Yibei said again: "Now that's the image I have of you."

"Claire, she's Chris's sister." Qingqian said: "She doesn't kill her teammates."

"Looks like I'll be able to die later in the future." Lu Yibei said.

"She kills her boyfriends." Qingqian said faintly.

Lu Yibei: "..."

He wanted to say that it was good that he wasn't her boyfriend, but he didn't say it.

They were watching a movie, why say something that ruins the mood.

The movie wasn't really that scary.

Lu Yibei had a very high resistance to zombie themes.

To scare him, they needed some folk things like wedding gowns, paper figures, or red and white candles.

The movie's CG was quite exquisite, and the visuals were good.

But the plot was a bit boring.

"Qingqian."

Lu Yibei mustered his courage: "What do you actually look like?"

In the past, he thought Qingqian was a guy, so he didn't ask about her appearance.

Now that he knew she was a girl, he went to ask her for photos.

It was as if he, this virtuous gentleman, was after her looks...

Qingqian's voice immediately dropped to freezing point:

"Ugly, don't ask."

The cold tone seemed to have touched a sore spot.

Although Qingqian's voice was very nice, there were too many examples of people with nice voices and ordinary looks. For example, that internet celebrity from a few years ago who only showed his face after reaching 100,000 subscribers...

"It's okay, I'm not good-looking either."

Lu Yibei immediately cut off the topic and returned to the movie itself: "There are too many zombies... Give me a sniper rifle, heroine, you go, kill them all."

He was just curious.

It didn't really matter what Qingqian looked like.

The fact that he and Qingqian got along well had nothing to do with looks.

If she was pretty, she was Qingqian.

If she wasn't pretty, she was still Qingqian.

Seeing that Qingqian didn't speak, Lu Yibei felt a little guilty, he shouldn't have brought up this stupid thing, he started racking his brains thinking about what lighthearted topics he could bring up.

But Qingqian sighed faintly:

"In the future,"

"Hmm?" Lu Yibei said.

"Can I come find you to play?"

"?"

"Say something."

"Nonsense, whether it's in the future or now, you can come find me whenever you want, you have my address." Lu Yibei quickly said: "I've told you to come find me before, but you didn't want to, why did you suddenly change your mind? When are you coming? School is starting soon... October 1st?"

Qingqian hadn't said whether she was still in school or already working, but based on their compatibility, they should be the same age.

Qingqian's laughter was soft:

"I just said it."

"I'm eagerly anticipating it, you have to take responsibility."

"... Um."

Maybe it was another headache, Qingqian only replied simply.

Lu Yibei and Qingqian quietly watched the movie, although there was a screen between them, and the real distance between them might be the ends of the earth, but at this moment it felt like they were shoulder to shoulder, able to hear each other's breathing.

Then, the scene changed.

The popular female character Jill Valentine appeared, she was known as "beautiful as she came out of the water", and this movie was no different, curvy and very tempting.

"Damn!" Lu Yibei exclaimed.

"Those breasts." Qingqian breathed.

...

Heaven used a drizzle to say goodbye to August.

Drizzling.

Lu Yibei braved the rain and went into a bubble tea shop, took off the baseball cap covering his head, and strings of water droplets dripped from his dark hair.

"Do I need to scan a QR code to order?"

He asked the waiter behind the counter as he opened his phone to send a message to Qingqian.

[AllTheWayNorth: Does your head still hurt today?]

The waiter shook her head: "No need, just tell me what you want... Lu Yibei?"

Lu Yibei was putting away his phone, shaking the water off his clothes, and raised his head when he heard the waiter call his name: "Xia Li?"

The girl standing behind the counter was about the same age as him, quite short, with healthy tanned skin that was quite smooth, she looked at Lu Yibei in surprise, and Lu Yibei could see her signature bucktooth in her slightly open mouth.

Xia Li and Lu Yibei could be considered old acquaintances, they were both junior high school classmates, but they went to different high schools, who would have thought they would meet again at Jiangnan University.

"You're working here? Are you back at school?" Lu Yibei asked.

Xia Li and Lu Yibei were both natives of Hangzhou, but their homes were quite a drive from Jiangnan University.

"I came at the beginning of the month, I'm staying at a relative's house nearby." Xia Li said: "Are you back at school too?"

"Yeah." Lu Yibei said.

Because they hadn't been in contact much since junior high school, Xia Li didn't know about the things that happened to him after he was kicked out of the house. Oh, she probably didn't know about Zhou Zhou either...

He and Xia Li had a good relationship in junior high school, because their homes were relatively close, they often went home together.

However, after going to college, because of Zhou Zhou, the two of them didn't become too close again, only occasionally bumped into each other a few times.

Xia Li looked Lu Yibei up and down, a tall and thin boy.

He was quite handsome before, and he was still quite handsome now that he was in college.

Lu Yibei's evaluation of Xia Li was that she was quite short before.

After going to college, she seemed even shorter, was it because he had grown taller?

"Alone?" Xia Li asked.

"Alone." Lu Yibei ordered a grape bubble tea.

"If you're alone, just order takeout."

Xia Li said: "You came out in the rain."

Lu Yibei sat down on the sofa in the store, leaning back:

"This is a high-stakes gamble."

"Gambling on what?"

"Gambling that it wouldn't rain so quickly." Lu Yibei said.
