Chapter 103 Accepting Apprentice
Since no one was able to find out the people behind Zhou Yu, they could only try to dig more information about Zhou Yu. However, the information they found was even less than the information that those journalists found. The video of a strange training had already been made into the news, and it was currently being broadcast in many networks.
The little chicks and the little pigeon that trained themselves every hard on their own, the “parents” were standing on the side while having strange armours on them as if they were inspecting and encouraging their kids, and a lazy owner that was playing games on a hand-held gaming console, while giving some commands randomly.
This image was so bizarre!
There were no carrots or whips. But why those three animals were so obedient? It was too subversive of common sense. Especially those two bigger ones, Standing there majestically like mighty sentinels. According to the villagers, they had also worked together to defeat wild stray dogs. So their fighting abilities were quite remarkable.
According to Zhou Fu, the manager of the amusement park, the trained animals would participate in a special animal Olympics that was going to be held in the “Colosseum” which would be open to the public soon. It made the reporters, who heard this news, stunned for almost a minute straight at that time.
‘Is this a joke?’
Animal Olympics had only been heard in fairy tales. In reality, at most, they could only participate in running competitions. In terms of other competition, no one had high hopes for it. It would be good enough already if it would not end up like an animal market. But when they saw the small animals who were practicing flying and running obediently, their three views of the world were corrected immediately. Strangely, they quite looked forward to the Olympics all of sudden.
During the period when the various media reporters went back to broadcast the news on TV, the little paradise amusement park’s fame was rising rapidly, and with the various advertisements Zhou Fu put out, the flow of people gradually increased. Finally, it looked more like an amusement park now.
In addition to opening the “The Billow Sound Pavilion” where the wave pool was located, “the little Kingdom” project had also been opened, attracting some people’s attention.
But a girl, who was one of the tourists, attracted Zhou Yu’s attention.
It is actually impossible not to notice it. This tourist is really dazzling like a shining star. If you are thinking that it is some kind of beautiful woman falling in love with an overbearing CEO plot from now on, then you are wrong. This is not some kind of romantic drama.
She, who was a very ordinary-looking girl, was visiting the Little Kingdom. But her whole body was emitting dazzling light constantly. It was like an extremely rare Pokémon card suddenly appeared in the pack of ordinary Pokémon cards. It almost blinded Zhou Yu’s eyes. However, as soon as he lowered his head to take a look without glasses, the dazzling light effect disappeared, and the girl, who was originally shinning like a star, became an ordinary passer-by.
‘Holy shit, I have never seen such a legendary card, ah no, such a legendary person before. Is my luck today off the charts?’
Years of playing Pokémon cards made Zhou Yu unable to walk away after seeing such a rare card, not to mention that it was the first time for him to see this strange phenomenon, there was no reason for him not to study it.
Zhou Yu, who was very eager to find out why, walked towards the girl. But he didn’t know how to speak to a strange person. Zhou Shuyu and Zhang Mengmeng and other girls all approached him first, and they were able to talk to each other was because those girls actively talked to him. And now he had to take the initiative, Zhou Yu just stood there, didn’t really know what to say for a long time.
The dazzling girl looked like she was in her early twenties. She was like a fresh college graduate, still having a puerile look on her face. Coming here alone, Zhou Yu didn’t know whether she was here to relax herself or some other reasons. Looking at the information carefully, he finally understood why the girl was so dazzling.
Name: ???;
Otaku Power: 8.5, addicted to making mini-models.
A skilled Otaku model maker.
Additional Information: Love handmade models more than her boyfriend.
Alas, a true hardcore Otaku. It was 0.7 higher than Zhou Yu’s Otaku power, which was 7.8. It was already close to the top hardcore Otaku, which was almost unprecedented.
During this period, there were also some ship model enthusiastic Otakus appearing in the park, but almost all of their Otaku powers were no more than 5.0, which almost made Zhou Yu laugh out loud that no one in this world was able to surpass his 7.8 Otaku power.
However, when facing such a hardcore Otaku, he didn’t know how to chat up. Slowly, Zhou Yu’s strange nervous behavior began to attract some other people’s attention. The girl herself did not seem to notice it. She was still staring at the mini models in the little Kingdom as if she had seen the most handsome man in the world. But the people around Zhou Yu began to wonder that if the young man was trying to pick up the girl or pickpocket the girl.
It was so embarrassing that Zhou Yu could only retreat quickly. Of course, he would not give up so easily. He found Zhou Fu and pointed to the girl and said, “Uncle Fu, can you get that girl for me? There’s something I’d like to discuss with her.”
Zhou Fu laughed inexplicably and showed a look of “I got you fam” on his face, but when he looked at the girl carefully and strangely, there was nothing unusual about her. So he asked, “Boy Yu, is it because you have stayed in the village with many old people for a very long time that your ability to appreciate beauty has decreased? If you want to pick up some girls, at least find some better ones. That girl is just average.”
‘Er… uncle, you are already a married man. Why is your mind still that dirty?’
“It’s not what you think it is… Sigh… I can’t explain it at the moment, you will know later. I will wait in booth No. 1 at Tung Fook Mansion. We will discuss it while eating.”
Zhou Fu was puzzled, but he still went in to find the girl at Zhou Yu’s request. After explaining it to the girl, the girl agreed and then went to Tung Fook Mansion with him. He also wanted to know what Zhou Yu wanted to do. Did this girl have some kind of big hidden secret?
This plot felt like some overbearing village CEO took fancy to an ugly duckling, it felt exactly like those cliche Korean dramas. But unfortunately, Zhou Yu did not watch Korean dramas, and the “ugly duckling” was also interested only in handmade models. The main reason why the girl agreed to the invitation was that it was Zhou Yu, who made the Little Kingdom and the various exquisite models inside.
With Zhou Fu staying next to him, Zhou Yu was not that nervous anymore. After a brief introduction, they slowly got to the main topic.
The girl’s name is Wu Yun. She was a fresh graduate from an art school. Back in school, she was studying painting and sculpturing. But what she liked most was all kinds of building models and handmade figures, and she also often made some anime figures when she was free. Seeing Zhou Yu’s exquisite model ships and the wonderful naval base on TV, she was immediately attracted by it. Not afraid to travel far distance, she came to the park to see those masterpieces in person.
The main reason why Zhou Yu wanted to talk with Wu Yun was, that he wanted to hire the girl to work in the amusement park. The job was to make ship models and some building models of the little Kingdom. So that Zhou Fu would not be nagging at him all day.
Zhou Yu’s works were becoming more and more valuable, but he preferred to play every day rather than make model ships, which made Zhou Fu very frustrated. If he was making animated movies or games or something, that was fine to Zhou Fu, but he just did not understand why he was idling all day long. Such a good skill, it would be a waste if he did not use it.
Now that, if he accepted an apprentice, all the problems would be solved.
