The Rise Of Otaku

Chapter 39 Clear Evidence

It was not possible to make six animations during the national holiday, even if he used all his Moe Coins. Because he still needed to consider the mood points as well.

In fact, he only made two animations during the holidays. Plus the magical paintbrush that he had made before, he could repeatedly play them once every three days.

Zhou Yu's favorite one was the mice shook and beta. Because only that one he didn't know how the story would progress. The calabash brothers and the magic paintbrush all followed the original storyline, so the stories of those two animations were nothing special.

In terms of turning the fifth calabash into a girl, it was actually Zhou Yu's impish idea. Besides, all just boys were too boring, having a girl in the group would slightly improve it.

And what kids liked the most was calabash brothers. To those kids, breathing fire and releasing water was still the most awesome scenes.

There was already a set of calabash brothers toys in the toy house. It was very popular amongst kids. Many of them even wanted to buy them using their lucky money.

This made Zhou Yu a little worried. 'Is it too early for the children to develop a bad habit of collecting figures?'

...On the third day of the National holiday…

Upon opening the door very early in the morning, Zhou Yu saw Zhou Hao was still cleaning the yard. The number of people who came yesterday was more than usual, and the rubbish that left behind was also increased. It seemed like it would take them some time to clean it.

Zhou Yu stretched his body and found himself a deckchair and continued to sunbathe. There was no sign of him wanting to help those kids at all.

At this moment, Zhou Yu’s image was exactly like those rich landlords in old China, who were exploding child labor. All it left now were some lolis to massage his legs and loli Fan-bearers.

What is enjoyment? Having a party on a yacht in the sea is a type of enjoyment. However, sunbathing on a deckchair under a banyan tree is also a type of enjoyment. There was no distinction between lowliness and nobleness, as long as Zhou Yu liked it.

Half asleep, Zhou Yu heard little rat whispered quietly into his ears, “brother Yu, brother Yu, wake up, someone is looking for you.”

'At this time in the early morning, who would look for me?'

After arriving at the door, he finally saw some animated girls. And this time, there were four of them. This was very interesting, he thought.

In fact, Zhou Yu had already seen them last night. After all, there weren't that many girls in the village. However, because he was not familiar with them, he just glanced at them occasionally last night.

But he didn't expect that they would come to look for him.

Comparing to the youthful and soft girls like He Yuanyuan, those girls were slightly older. In the eyes of the ACG world, they were somewhere between beautiful girls and mature ladies.

The one in the middle was a sporty type girl. Perhaps she studied some sort of sports at some university. The two that stood beside her were slightly fashionable type girls. The strangest one was the Moe girl that was hiding behind them with a little timidity. It seemed like she was scared of something.

As he lowered his head and glanced at them again with the normal eyes, all those unique features of each girl that he had seen all disappeared immediately. They were just a group of four ordinary female college students.

Another benefit of familiarizing the eyes of the ACG world was, that the personality traits and the emotions of those real-world people would be very obvious after they became animated characters.

Just like watching animes, as long as they were not well disguised, their personality traits and their emotions could almost be immediately noticed on the first sight.

He remembered this girl. Because last night when he suddenly turned around after feeling someone was watching him, he scared that Moe girl to sit on the ground.

'Is she here to complain about what happened last night?' Zhou Yu's silence made those girls feel very awkward. But Lu Yuan still reached out her hands out in a friendly manner and shook Zhou Yu’s hand to break the ice, “Hi, Mr. Zhou, we are the members of an anime club in XX University. We have seen the animated movie you showed yesterday. We think it was very beautiful. We are curious about which company you bought the reel film from?”

‘So they are here for this…’ Fortunately, Zhou Yu was already prepared. No matter what questions they asked, he just replied that the movie was given by his internet friends. In terms of who those friends were, and why they wanted him to show those movies in a village, Zhou Yu just replied that he did not know.

Unable to get any answers from Zhou Yu, Lu Yuan and her friends left dispiritedly.

……………………

Zhang Mengmeng really liked the myth of Luhua village this game. There were beautiful and distorted love stories, and creepy and bloody mythical stories inside the games. On I am crazy over otaku gaming portal, there was even a fan group for this game, and many fans were trying to find out the hidden contents of the game.

Zhang Mengmeng was also in this fan group.

Seeing the real Luhua village and the real white butcher, it made her very excited. As soon as she returned to Lu Yuan’s house, she went on the internet to share her unique experiences with other fans of the game.

However, not many people believed her. Although there was a movie called the myth of Luhua village on the internet, it was a movie filmed by a group of amateurs. No one was able to see many things clearly from that movie, so not many people know that Luhua village really existed in this world.

Although she was questioned by many people, Zhang Mengmeng was still reluctant to give in. However, she did not have any shred of evidence with her. She could not prove it at all. Therefore, on the second day, she especially took a camera and went to Luhua village again to take some pictures. As long as the places existed in the game, she would take pictures of them. It was a shame that the ruined temple did not have any hidden basement. Otherwise, it would really feel like a real game.

Of course, the photo that she wanted to take the most was the white butcher. That was the most classic character of the game.

But whenever she saw the white butcher, she would always involuntarily remember that crazy murder who always had a terrifying smile on his face. Therefore, it would always make her body shiver constantly. But because of the intense curiosity, she couldn't help but want to get close him. It was truly a contradictory mentality.

Finally finishing taking the photos, she quickly returned back Lu Yuan’s house, and then uploaded all the photos onto the internet. So she could prove that she did not lie.

“Hi all, here is the evidence you all asked,”

With a great number of photos, this time no one questioned her anymore.

However, since Zhang Mengmeng stupidly released her selfies, the post was quickly derailed. Many perverts were having a great time teasing Zhang Mengmeng in the post. And only after a while did someone posted, “OP, since you said that you have seen the white butcher, why don’t you take a photo of him?”

Indeed, the White butcher was a very popular character in the evil faction. No one expected that this character really existed in real life. This was not a cosplay anymore, it was a real person. Whenever Zhang Mengmeng thought about it, she could not help but get excited.

To be honest, Zhang Mengmeng also really wanted to take a photo with the white butcher. But every time when she saw the real person, her heart would always beat rapidly. Don’t get her wrong. That was definitely not the feeling of love. It was a real sense of fear. Especially when he suddenly turned around and looked back at her that night. Combining with her wild imagination, Zhou Yu already became a devil in her mind.

Having thought of that, she could not help but have a cold shiver again.

But she really wanted to have a photo with him.

The contradictory mentality was having a fierce fight inside Zhang Mengmeng’s mind. In the end, she still couldn't control herself. Zhang Mengmeng was the leading costume designer in the animation club. This time, she had also brought some costumes with her as well, and those costumes just happened to be designed for the myth of the Luhua village. It seemed like this was a fate that had been already arranged by God.

Of course, she could not just find Zhou Yu on her own. She needed Lu Yuan to help her as well.

Actually, Lu Yuan was not very interested in animation movies that Zhou Yu played. After failing to get any answers over the internet, she also gave up. Cosplay was something that all of them were passionate about. So when Zhang Mengmeng came up with the idea that using the "the myth of Luhua village" as the main cosplay theme, she immediately agreed.

Therefore, they once again returned to Luhua Village.
