I will never give in to Miss Death

"Come on, Yagyu Kaoru, show me your ultimate move, the Divine Meow Sword."

"Liv, hey, hey, my Liv, your feet are so small and so fragrant..."

Because I personally don't play many games, and I don't watch anime as well as those professional UPs, I don't recognize many characters, so when I meet characters whose names I can't even remember, I can only faint by acting cute, and then let Xiongxiong come out to chat with them, and finally take photos.

What's even more embarrassing is that, maybe because the anime "Bear Bears in Another World" is not very famous, most Cosers thought that Bear Bear was not cosplaying any anime character, but just casually put on a bear suit, which made Bear Bear very embarrassed.

"I'm old. Now it's all young people's world."

After finally getting rid of a bunch of cosplayers, Xiong Xiong sighed on the way to the booth: "Xiong Xiong is obviously an anime from 2020, but why does it feel like I have become a magical girl?"

Well…actually, Magical Girl is more famous than Kuma.

Moreover, the popular anime elements in different countries are actually quite different, right?

I remember that some anime are very popular in some countries, but have mediocre responses in other countries. Different cultures have different levels of acceptance, so it is normal that some works do not match the "waves".

"arrive."

In the comic exhibition that looked like a pedestrian commercial street, under the guidance of Xiong Xiong, we came to a booth with the elf LOGO that we had seen once before in the coffee shop.

This stall uses a grass-green tent, one, two, three, four, five... five large tents put together, with a small green flag inserted, making it particularly conspicuous among the simple shops around it.

By the way, has the Gloria brand always been green-themed?

Their logo is a grass-green elf, and the computer cases, motherboards, and radiators they sell also come in green styles. The country is said to be based mainly on agriculture and animal husbandry, and the entire archipelago is covered with forests, green land, and grasslands, which doesn't seem to fit in with the mechanical style of "cyberpunk."

By the way, it would be nice to live in a place like the Bear Country, right?

Perhaps influenced by the Elf Mode, the image of the prairie of the Archipelago State emerged in my mind—

On the endless prairie, cattle and sheep are eating grass apologetically. On one side is a fertile field full of crops such as strawberries, tomatoes, grapes, etc., and on the other side is a fish pond with fish and ducks. We sleep in a simple but warm little house. We get up in the warm sunshine every day, go out to water the strawberries, tomatoes and some vegetables, pick up a few bunches of grapes, and go to the paddy field to get two duck eggs. We go back to the house to cook some porridge to eat together, and then we can start to enjoy the day.

If the people in Xiongxiong's country live like this every day, then it makes sense that their company has always had a "non-competitive" mentality.

"Lisa...Sister Lisa!"

Taking us to this shop filled with grass-green tents and elf flags, Xiong Xiong quickly found "Lisa" chatting with a young man in the tent.

This woman had a distinctly foreign face, like she was from Europe or America, with white skin, and looked to be around thirty years old, with golden hair. She was wearing mature women's clothing that was very popular in Europe, and had a very hot body, with the charm of a "lady".

"Good morning, little cutie."

Seeing Xiongxiong, the woman called "Lisa" came to her senses, and then found me and Yin Xiamo beside Xiongxiong: "These two... are the little guys who were performing up there just now, right?"

Lisa's voice is very mature and her Mandarin is very standard, with a flavor of Ouyang Xue in a coffee shop, but her maturity also contains a kind of "confidence" and "care".

Especially when she was talking to Xiaomo and me, it felt like the way she looked at us was like a kindergarten teacher looking at the children in her class.

Although I was a little dissatisfied with being called "little guy", considering that anyone who can be called "Auntie" by Xiong Xiong should be older than me, whether in the past life or now, not to mention that I am really like a child in the eyes of others now, I had to keep my face calm and said to Lisa: "Hello, it's our first meeting. My name is Yin Nuoer and this is my good friend, Yin Xiamo."

"It can be seen that you have a very good relationship."

Lisa chuckled softly, then turned to Yin Xiamo with a subtle expression: "You don't seem like ordinary friends?"

"Oh?"

Yin Xiamo was a little surprised: "Can you tell?"

"Oh my... More than ten years ago, I worked as a psychological counselor in a school in Newcastle. The children there... Oh, especially the girls, had eyes similar to yours."

As she spoke, Isa stood up and said, "I can sense that you are suppressing your feelings for her. This is not a good thing. Of course, it is not necessarily a bad thing either. On the contrary, the little cutie next to you should be much more cautious. She is brave, sincere, and full of responsibility. She is a partner worth devoting your life to."

This is all a mess.

I gave Xiongxiong a "what did your aunt say" expression.

Xiongxiong responded to me with an expression that said “You don’t understand this, I don’t understand it either.”

"I see."

After listening to Lisa's words, Yin Xiamo thought for a moment: "I understand."

"What did you understand?"

I couldn't help but say, "Don't think of going to weird places!"

As the saying goes...if Xiaomo starts to have wild thoughts, I'll be in trouble.

Although I am not very strong and small now, my advantage is that I have strong "endurance". Unless I do strenuous exercise, I can work for two or three hours at a time without feeling tired. However, this has also become my disadvantage in "bed".

Anyway... every time Xiaomo thinks of going somewhere else, our sheets will have to be washed a few hours later.

So I had to nip her weird ideas in the bud and divert her attention.

“I didn’t think of anything weird.”

The girl next to him turned around and said seriously, "I was just thinking about the various legitimate rights I can exercise as the guardian of a kitten."

"That's even weirder!"

"Ah ha ha……"

Xiong Xiong on the side was a little embarrassed. She gestured to the "lady" in front of us and said, "Nuo'er, Xiaomo, she is Lisa. She lived with us when she was a child. She is my neighbor and is related to me by blood."

"Xiao Yueyue has become much more cheerful since she came here to play."

Lisa picked up a strange "horror robot"-like thing from the chair in front of her and said to the young man beside her: "400 yuan, how about it? I can consider buying three."

"This……"

The young man's face showed obvious hesitation: "Four hundred yuan is really not enough, five hundred is already my bottom line."

"How about buying four for the four hundred dollars?"

Lisa still spoke in that gentle older sister tone: "If it doesn't work, I don't want it."

"Cough cough..."

Hearing this, the young man frowned and said, "How about... 450?"

"Four hundred dollars, I can buy four."

Lisa put the "terror robot" back on the table: "If you don't agree, forget it."

"Okay, four hundred is four hundred, four!"

The young man gritted his teeth and said, "Are they all of this style?"

“Yeah, they’re all this style.”

"Then wait a moment, I'll go get you four new ones."

After the young man left, Yin Xiamo, Xiong Xiong and I subconsciously walked over and asked, "What is this?"

There was a black, red and white thing on the table, which looked like the horror robot in Red Alert - three pointed legs, a Gatling gun in the right hand, and a shield in the left hand... No, the weapon and color combination didn't look like a horror robot, but more like...

A mini version of White Shark No. 14 from the anime "Tower of Spirits".

What is this thing? A figurine?

“It’s a stereo.”

Lisa answered our questions and pointed to another stall not far away with her eyes: "The man just now is the stall owner over there. Their store mainly sells computer speakers, but the shape of this one is more unique. I just talked to them and they asked for 900 yuan each, but I got it down to 400 yuan."

900 to 400?! This is not just a "half-cut" deal!

“Its sound quality is pretty good.”

Perhaps seeing that we were a little confused, Lisa touched the head of this small spider-like robot and pressed the switch.

“Bluetooth connected!”

The next second, the machine lit up red and white lights, the small Gatling machine gun on the right side began to hum, and a touch screen that looked like an energy bar lit up above the head.

"Since you are all Xiao Yueyue's good friends and are also members of the zero-dollar purchase program designated by Mr. Tom, I will buy two extra ones here."

Lisa gently dragged the touchpad on the top of the robot's head and turned up the volume. Immediately, the speaker behind it vibrated noticeably and exciting music sounded.

"Not bad, right? 400 yuan for one, plus the shape, I think it's pretty good."

It’s pretty good, but what the hell is zero-dollar shopping…

“Actually, we came here to see that…”

I mustered up the courage to step forward and said, "Look at that drawing board. My friend wants to be an artist and now he needs a drawing board."

"You are all Xiao Yueyue's good friends. Why do you need a drawing tablet? Just use the drawing screen."

Lisa turned around, dug through some boxes in the back, and pulled out an extremely large box.

The box packaging is very simple, with the word "Hyacinth" and the elf logo of Gloria Corporation written on it.

"This is a hand-painted screen produced by Mr. Tom. The factory price is over 4 yuan, and the selling price here is over yuan. It's called the Hyacinth III PRO, K hand-painted screen."

Lisa yawned as she stuffed the box into my arms.

"If you're going to take it, take the most expensive one. Don't save money for Mr. Tom."

"..."

……

No. 280 Leave your mark on the elf's cat climbing frame!

“If you are a beginner, learning to paint for the first time, or have previous painting experience and have a sufficient budget, you can just use a hand-painted screen.”

Next to the table, he opened the large box with the Garland company logo and the words "Hyacinth III" printed on it. Lisa took out a white-green board from it and took out some accessories.

"This is a hand-painted pen, and this side... This hand-painted screen has many kinds of brushes, and the pressure sensing is the most accurate. It is considered the highest-level product currently produced by Mr. Tom's company."

Handing me the board and the hand-painted pen, Lisa asked curiously, "Little guy, do you want to learn to draw?"

"Ah... not me."

I quickly handed the board to Yin Xiamo: "Xiaomo is a painter, I am not familiar with painting."

I can’t say I’m unfamiliar with it. I feel like most people in elementary school, junior high school, and high school have more or less “taught themselves” some drawing, either by casually drawing a few strokes in front of their classmates, or by “copying” their favorite characters in comics and animations.

For example, when I was in class, the most popular magazines in my class were "Comic World" and "Zhiyin Manke", which contained many memorable comics, such as "Asha" and "Adai", as well as "Stealing the Stars in September", "Spirit List" and "Mobile Boy" from Zhiyin Manke. I was in junior high school at that time. We were a group of children from welfare homes who studied together with children from the city. There were always some very rich children in the class. When the weekly comic books came out, they would go to the nearby newsstand to buy them, and after reading them, they would generously pass them around the class.

Many children awakened their talent for drawing at that time. Whenever they had free time, they would frantically copy the girls and boys in comic books, which gave the teachers a headache. The teachers even banned the circulation of comic books in class.

However, the problem is that once an issue involves the "interests of the whole class", it is very difficult to enforce it. Once the teacher's order is given, not only the study committee and the discipline committee, but even the class monitor will "rebel" together. On the surface, they will nod and bow to the teacher and say that we are already strictly investigating comic books, but in private they are enjoying reading them together with everyone.

The same goes for me. At that time, I also tried to "teach myself" to paint. I was also excited because the author of "Rabbit Gang" in "Comic World" introduced his experience of creating comics in the media. I once made up my mind to "become a great painter". However, the reality was cruel. After trying to draw stickmen for several months, I found that I did not have much talent for painting. In the end, I could only put my energy back into studying and writing.

Then I found that I seemed to have a little talent for writing, and started looking for books that people didn't want to read, such as "Story Club" and "Grimm".

Drawing requires a lot of talent. I feel that the talent requirements for this profession are the same as those of professional e-sports FPS players. Some people are born with the ability to pull the gun, control the gun and follow the gun, some people are still at the platinum level after playing for thousands of hours, some people can only reach the entry level after one or two years of drawing, and some people can become as good as some masters after studying for a few months... This kind of thing cannot be forced.

Anyway... I can't draw, but Xiaomo can. I can write books, and Xiaomo is not familiar with Earth culture, so it would be great if we could be together.

"How do I use this?"

Yin Xiamo was a little confused after taking the board and pen. She tried to tap the screen with her pen, then checked the big thing: "Nuo'er, is this what you have been talking about these days?"

"That's it."

I was a little embarrassed: "It's a tool for drawing on the computer. I wanted to buy it for Xiaomo a long time ago."

"Oh?"

The girl next to him showed her signature sinister expression: "So our little cat has turned into a little succubus who likes to look at her own pornographic pictures?"

"What the hell do you like looking at your own pornographic pictures?"

I subconsciously retorted, “What does this have to do with buying a board?”

"If I draw anything, it's mostly pornographic pictures of you, little one, okay?"

Yin Xiamo covered her mouth and chuckled: "Don't you mean that Nuo'er wants me to draw your pictures all over the computer... um?"

"What a mess you're thinking about!"

I stood on tiptoe and reached out to pinch Yin Xiamo's face: "I bought this so that you don't have to draw on paper every time in the future. It's not safe, and it's hard to find colors!"

"You mean... um... Nuoer wants to see more exquisite pornographic pictures of herself?"

Yin Xiamo showed an expression that said, "So that's how it is. I totally understand." "Okay, I'll try my best."

"That's not it!"

I increased the strength of my hands, stretching the beautiful face of the girl in front of me: "There are still many people here! Don't make such a joke!"
