I will never give in to Miss Death

I quietly looked at my right hand.

There, at this moment, is hanging a non-luminous angel halo. If I don't take the initiative to touch it, this halo is almost non-existent. At present, the only use of this halo that I can think of is as a flashlight, or a very environmentally friendly "biopower generation".

By the way, what's the name of Xiongxiong's father...Tom? The one from Tom and Jerry?

"Dad, I promised them that if they can help solve this crisis, I will give them two computers and drawing tablets."

Sikong Yue, still dressed in a bear coat, acted like a "profiteer": "Look, they've attracted so many people, what do you say?"

"Computer and drawing tablet? The drawing tablet is that..."

Xiongxiong's father was stunned for a moment: "It's the painting thing, right? We sell it over here at stall No. 29?"

"Yes, that's it."

Xiongxiong hung up on the father with a "puff" sound: "My two friends are super stars. Their appearance fees in China start at 100,000. They are here today to help promote the product. In a few days, the relevant videos will surely be spread across major media platforms. It's not too much for me to give them the best computers and motherboards, right?"

"Big star? Is that true?"

The man seemed to be completely accustomed to Xiongxiong's "personality". He laughed and said, "Okay, okay, whatever my daughter says is fine. Give a reward, give a reward. Give the best one!"

"Really?"

Xiongxiong gave Yin Xiamo and me a look that said, "Dad, my PS5..."

"Buy, buy, buy! I'll buy them when I get back!"

"Great!"

Jumping off his father's back in an extremely playful move, Xiong Xiong asked curiously, "Who's watching over at booth No. 29?"

"Your Aunt Lisa."

"Then dad, please call Aunt Lisa on the computer. I want to go over with my friends to get the goods!"

"Are you still afraid that dad will regret it?"

Like a little old man, the man took out his cell phone and pressed a few buttons on it.

"Hallo! Lisa, my daughter will come to your place later, get her a... that one, whatever she wants, um, Sehr gut! That's it!"

After hanging up the phone, the man gave Xiong Xiong a look that said, "I didn't lie to you," and then said with a somewhat thoughtful expression, "Aren't you hot wearing so many clothes?"

"Go back and change it! As a qualified Coser, this is just a small problem!"

Sikong Yue put on a pair of bear gloves, waved at us, and motioned for Xiaomo and I to follow him: "Let's go, let's go get the goods from Aunt Lisa..."

"Wait a minute, my little princess."

Before Xiong Xiong finished speaking, several people wearing headphones and tool worker uniforms walked over here quickly. The leading man first looked at Xiao Mo and me, and then cast his eyes on Xiong Xiong: "Little Princess, please forgive me for being blunt, but what about those stage plays just now?"

Obviously, these people must have just watched the relevant video and were confused by the performance that Xiaomo and I just did.

And rightfully so, because we use real magic on stage.

While singing, I roughly understood why Xiaomo, a lightning mage, would delve into this kind of fancy effect magic that looks like it's used to be cute - Xiaomo has experienced something similar.

More than six thousand years is enough time for a person to grow a lot.

When the hero was still around, Xiaomo and the hero went to the village and some empires to try to "perform" in order to raise money.

It's about using the talents of the elves to sing songs and perform some shows.

Xiaomo even went to the forest to force herself to awaken her "elf form", and then worked as a "bard" with the hero for a while.

In addition to curing diseases, the elves' "life magic" also has a very practical effect, which is to create flowers and plants out of thin air, or make beautiful flowers bloom on the originally barren ground.

In other words...the flowers and plants on the stage just now were actually real, but Xiaomo used other magic to erase them.

This is roughly the situation. When Xiaomo and the brave were together, they didn't know how to fight. Apart from eating every day, their role was probably to act as wandering poets or singers. However, the two of them only experienced this kind of "performing" for less than three years.

Later on, when Xiaomo united the elves and had the elven queen give a speech to the allied forces, she manually created the "special effects" and "music".

Then at the comic convention on this side of Earth, Xiaomo used this technique to enhance the atmosphere on site on me, but this time, in order to make the situation on site seem reasonable, she deliberately lowered the "special effects" and "image quality", and then made it look like a "3D projection" on this side of Earth.

There will definitely be no problem for the audience below. Maybe after they go back, they will study the recorded video and say, "How is this effect achieved?", "The special effects here are so realistic?", and sigh, "Technology has been advancing rapidly recently".

After all... 3D effects like this can indeed be achieved with the current level of technology on Earth, so there is no need for people to associate it with "magic".

But the staff who set up the stage and those who know the inside story don't think so.

If these people are responsible for the stage lighting and equipment placement, they know better than anyone whether their venue can produce such special effects.

Moreover, in most cases, special effects are not enough. If you want to combine special effects with people, long rehearsals are needed. Xiaomo and I are "strangers" in the eyes of these people. We have no recollection of rehearsing at all. After seeing the "stage play" and "singing program" in the video, they inevitably feel confused.

"What's going on?"

At the signal from several staff members, Xiong Xiong put her hands on her hips and acted like a real lady: "Are you not satisfied with the results of this rescue?"

"No, absolutely not, the show is good, but..."

The staff member standing in front said cautiously: "I'm asking... Miss, how did you create this effect, that is, this palace, and these flowers and grass? I remember that we clearly didn't have..."

"So you are questioning my and my two friends' ability to save the situation?"

Xiongxiong kept his hands on his hips, looking proud: "Or do you think we made these with magic?"

"No, no, really no!"

The staff member instantly “shrinks”: “We are just…very curious about how to achieve this effect, and wanted to ask a few questions. We really have no ill intentions.”

"That's our secret. You can just think of it as a family secret."

Xiongxiong continued with a proud look: "If you want to know, then work hard. When you become a senior executive of the company and are appreciated by my father, he will tell you the principle. As for now... it's okay for you to treat it as a kind of magic."

"So that's how it is. The young lady's words instantly gave me motivation."

The employee who was speaking looked as if he had suddenly realized something: "It turns out that our company's technology has become so advanced. This is really amazing..."

"Hehe, that's good to know. Let's go and prepare to introduce our new products to the fools below!"

Xiongxiong waved at these people and said, "Go ahead, my friends and I are going to do some serious work."

"well."

After bowing to Xiong Xiong, and then to Xiao Mo and me, these people left satisfied.

Is this okay?

"you……"

Probably also surprised by Xiong Xiong's peculiar way of persuasion, Yin Xiamo asked curiously: "Aren't you curious about how we did it?"

"I'm curious. The set of moves you performed for the diners in the coffee shop was circulated everywhere in the QQ group. The one just now should be the exclusive version, right?"

Xiong Xiong turned around, and the aura of a young lady on her face disappeared, replaced by the quietness that was unique to talking to friends: "But I know not to ask about such things. Art is for people to appreciate, and there is no need to dig into it."

Yin Xiamo nodded: "You have a good attitude."

"No, that's not right. When I went to Africa before, I was in a cannibal tribe and their chief performed a body levitation trick on me. There is also a tribe next door where people cut their lips when they reach a certain age and put plates inside. Whoever has lips that can hold larger plates will have greater prestige in the tribe."

Xiong Xiong skipped towards the stage stairs on the side: "At that time, I was also wondering how the so-called levitation was achieved, and whether it was magic, but in the end I didn't ask anything. This is a kind of respect."

Huh... not bad.

I was still thinking about how to explain it later, but I didn't expect Xiongxiong to be so understanding.

As expected of a wealthy family's eldest daughter, she has excellent manners...

"Anyway, thank you for your performance. I won't break my promise. Dad has already promised to send us a computer and a drawing tablet. I'll help you send the computer when I get home. Now let's take a look at the hand-painted screen first."

After getting off the stage, Xiongxiong waved his little hand at us, pointing to the noisy comic exhibition venue in front of him: "Booth No. 29 over there is our family's display area other than computers. Dad has already greeted them. Lisa... Sister Lisa is watching over it. She is the closest person to me besides my parents."

"Let's go. If you need anything later, just go over and get it. It doesn't cost any money."

"..."

……

No.279 Oh! My poor Mr. Tom

What impressed me most about the comic exhibition at the Science and Technology Museum was its large area.

The venue is large, the stage is large, and even the businesses and shops that set up stalls here are large in scale.

And I don’t know if it’s because the floors are so high, but when you stand inside and look up, you can clearly feel that there is a very obvious distance from the ceiling. In order to create an atmosphere, the staff here deliberately set up some colored glass above the head, and the colorful sunlight and surrounding lights together illuminate the entire venue, so it doesn’t feel like a "small comic exhibition".

This place is more like a large comic exhibition with a two-dimensional atmosphere.

The Mi Gua Bao comic exhibition that I visited before seemed relatively small, and the Mi Gua Bao stall was also small. It was just a big shed similar to the ones used by various clubs to set up stalls when organizing activities on university campuses. There were some books around it, some snacks inside, and a table, and that was it.

"Hey? Isn't that little girl the employee of Jialan Company in the middle?"

"What little sister, what Jialan Company?"

"Isn't this comic convention a joint venture between Tongmeng.com and Jialan Company to sell goods? Aren't you here for this?"

"No, the girl who dances home dance that I follow on Tongmeng.com is coming today, and I plan to ask her for an autograph."

"Anyway, it was the singing of that little girl just now... Wow, it was so beautiful. I heard it outside the door, and it really sounded like the sound of nature. When I came in, I saw that it was almost over, so I opened the QQ group and saw that a lot of people were posting about our venue."

Walking on the wide path of the comic exhibition with Xiaomo Xiongxiong, I guess our performance just now was a bit "over the top", and our clothes were quite obvious, so many people around us looked at us with admiration.

"That little sister should be the little grass god from before, right?"

"Is that her natural voice or the tuner's work? I was mesmerized by it. It really doesn't sound like something that should exist in this world."

"How about...we go up and say hello to them?"

"You go ahead if you want to go. I don't dare. Usually, people like this should have appearance fees of several million."

"..."

Logically speaking, comic conventions are full of all kinds of strange costumes, such as the Kamen Riders in front of me, the Shark Chili on the left, the "Anti-Hulk Army" standing majestically in an open space not far away for people to take pictures, and even the "APEX Legion": Power Boy, Gibraltar, and The Entity... However, after all, we are all adults, and our height is more or less over 1.5 meters, so it's normal for everyone to have abnormal clothes, but for a kid like me... wearing a C suit, I'm particularly eye-catching when I walk.

In addition to genes, a person's height is really closely related to society and family. In our generation, when we were in junior high school, everyone's height was generally around 1.4 to 1.5 meters. Junior high school to high school is the age of growth for boys. Generally, by the second and third year of high school, a boy who is about 1.7 meters tall is considered relatively tall. A boy who is 1.8 meters tall is the type who is often arranged by the teacher to sit at the back of the classroom to listen to lectures.

At least that was my situation as a kid from an orphanage.

In that society, people generally had nothing to eat, and had no specific understanding of nutritional requirements. They just knew that it was good to have something to eat. Many parents gave their children a steamed bun for breakfast, a bowl of noodles for lunch, and rice for dinner. People at that time believed that people should eat rice and noodles. There was no concept of combining meat and vegetables, or supplementing calcium or protein.

In my time, the welfare home was sometimes short of funds, so for lunch we would go to a nearby small farm and buy a big pot of tofu pudding from the farmers there. We would then add a lot of sugar to it and use it as lunch for the children in the yard. Everyone would line up to get a bowl, and each person would get a bowl of tofu pudding.

Various factors led me to subconsciously believe that... generally, adolescent boys are around 1.7 meters tall, and girls are around 1.6 meters tall. I didn't expect that boys nowadays are so tall, and girls too, look like queens.

I asked Li Denghua, Zhou Xiaofei and others before, at least for children of their age... even those whose families are poor or whose parents are busy with work and choose to have the school "care", they will have at least a few eggs, a cup of milk and two big meat buns in the morning, vegetables and meat for lunch, and they can go to the cafeteria to get a glass of milk after school in the afternoon. This is the rule at Xingguang Primary School, they are provided with enough eggs and milk, and I guess other schools will not be much worse.

"Why are all these people my age so tall... Are people in the other world also this tall at this age?"

"there is."

"Then Xiaomo, why did you make me so short?!"

"No, I am only responsible for creating Nuoer's body, I can't control her growth. Nuoer is still a child now, and she will probably be a teenager in two thousand years. If Nuoer wants to have a pair of big breasts and a perky butt... maybe she will have to live for five or six thousand years."

"Five or six thousand years old! Isn't this completely unimaginable?"

As the game's recent plot has entered a critical moment, there are a lot of girls cosplaying as the Grass Goddess Nashida. I can see one almost every few steps. However, these girls are taller than me, and every time they see me, they can't help but come closer -

"Such a little Nashida!"

"What a cute little grass god, can I take a picture?"

"Traveler, is she your sister or daughter?"

At this point, Yin Xiamo could only helplessly explain, "She is my girlfriend," and then take photos with these grass gods.

It was these dedicated Grass God Cosplayers who made me understand how important it was to have Xiaomo help make these grass green shoes to match the character in the other world.

In the game, Cao Shen is loved by many foot fetishists because he wears stepping socks. However, in real life, if he wears like this, the soles of his feet will be dirty after walking a few steps. When taking pictures, he can't show his feet at all, and thus loses the attributes of "foot fetish ecstasy".

On the contrary, I don’t have this worry when I wear shoes with the same theme color.

However, this will more or less make my character a little "unoriginal", so it depends on one's opinion.

Afterwards, probably because we saw many people taking photos with us, the Cosplayers who passed by us also sent us requests to take photos with us. It was only less than a hundred meters from the middle stage to the No. 29 Jialan peripheral stall that Xiongxiong mentioned, but it took us almost twenty minutes to walk.

Almost wherever we go, there are crowds of people gathering.

Fortunately, most of the people who came to take photos with us were young ladies, such as Exiah and Charmander from Arknights, Xishi Daji who cosplayed as King of Glory, and some less popular game characters - the Warship Girls idol Quincy destroyer, Azur Lane Saratoga, Horcrux Academy Yagyu Kaoru, and Liv from Sensing Gray Raven...

"Quincy, come and eat grass."

"Little Gaga is still quite capable as a destroyer."
