This is a huge workshop, with some unfinished dolls placed on a large workbench.
Cabinets were made on all four walls, with dolls ready for display inside.
Cheng Miao looked at the clay, tools, and silicone molds on the table, which were all piled up.
There are many dolls in the room, and many of them are missing arms and legs, which makes many players feel uncomfortable.
Xiaodao was very satisfied with Cheng Miao's polite attitude, so he took extra care of Cheng Miao.
"Do you want to learn how to make a puppet?" Cheng Miao looked at the notebook handed over by Xiaodao and felt a little confused. She is not good at handicrafts, and making a puppet requires composition. Her painting skills...
Lin Zhu saw Cheng Miao's dilemma and stuck his head out, "Mr. Xiaodao, can I try?"
Xiao Dao looked at this handsome high school student with some disgust. None of these guests had any talent. He only let Cheng Miao try because she was more attractive to him.
"Mr. Xiaodao, this friend of mine is very good at these things. Let him try it." Cheng Miao knew the usefulness of Lin Zhu's props and quickly sold them to Xiaodao.
"Okay, come and give it a try." Xiaodao led Lin Zhu to the workbench with some disgust, and Lin Zhu followed behind to carefully absorb the knowledge from the prop book.
When Lin Zhu started to compose the picture, open the mold, and make the prototype, not to mention the small island, even the players watching the excitement were stunned.
Looking at Lin Zhu's nimble fingers and lifelike puppet head, Xiao Yan gently tapped Lin Zhu's arm, "Brother, have you done this before?"
Lin Zhu pinched the doll's head seriously, "No, I'm still a student."
"Then how did you do this?"
Lin Zhu was serious, "I was inspired by Mr. Kojima and became self-taught."
Player:…
Although Xiaodao didn't believe that Lin Zhu had never learned such a superb skill before, he was still very happy to be flattered, let alone a person with such a high talent.
Artists all need resonance, so Kojima put aside his false politeness and seriously guided Lin Zhu.
Seeing the lifelike doll appear, the players gathered around curiously. Jiang Chen's tall figure stood aside and patted Cheng Miao on the shoulder.
Cheng Miao understood, and she quietly slipped into the workroom.
There is a small table in the workroom, which is full of hand-drawn sketches and is very messy.
Some newspaper pictures and texts were pinned to the wall with thumbtacks. Xiao Dao's face was a little unclear on the yellowed paper, but it was indeed this person.
It's just that I was high-spirited at the time and not so thin and sickly.
Cheng Miao scanned the writing on the wall very quickly.
"The genius puppet master made a sensation in the town", "The puppet master Kojima won an international award", "The puppet master retired and disappeared"...
Suddenly Cheng Miao saw the keyword, "Unmarried."
Glancing back, the players were still surrounded by Xiaodao and Lin Zhu. Jiang Chen and Qiudong were standing just in position to cover Cheng Miao's figure. She turned back and read ten lines at a time.
"The talented puppet master is still unmarried. When he mentioned his marital status, he said that he currently wants to devote his energy to art."
Unmarried...
Cheng Miao fell into deep thought. Seeing that there were no other clues, she retreated back into the crowd without anyone noticing.
Lin Zhu's puppet is almost finished, and the puppet with the eyes doesn't look so eye-catching.
Lin Zhu pinched a little boy who looked exactly like himself, except that he didn't wear glasses.
He showed it to Cheng Miao like a treasure. Cheng Miao took it and looked at it. He did a good job indeed.
Perhaps because it was made by Lin Zhu, no one from Kojima's doll appeared.
Cheng Miao saw that Kojima was collecting materials. She leaned over and asked, pretending to be chatting, "Mr. Kojima is the most famous puppet master. It stands to reason that as your fan, I know everything about you, huh?" , It’s a pity that I didn’t know that you and Miss Xizi got married, so I couldn’t congratulate you.”
Kojima paused, then continued to put away the carving knife, his voice was very steady, "Xiko and I didn't have a wedding. There are too many worldly things when people become famous, and they don't want to deal with it."
This is consistent with the newspaper. Is Xiaodao really a harmless NPC?
Then we have to focus on Xizi, but Xizi has not appeared until now because of poor health.
Will...
There is no such person as Xizi?
As if he could see the thoughts in Cheng Miao's mind, Xiao Dao said to everyone gently, "When Xizi gets better tomorrow, I will take you to visit the studio. I know that some of you are Xizi's admirers, and you are very fond of me. I’m not interested.”
Everyone said a few polite words, and Xiaodao patted Lin Zhu on the shoulder, "You are very talented. Since you made this doll, I will give it to you."
Lin Zhu took the doll and liked it very much, but he was worried about something wrong, so he smiled and said to Xiaodao, "I think if the doll is temporarily placed with Mr., it can also be tainted with Mr.'s aura. When I leave, , come and get it again.”
Cheng Miao thought Xiaodao would refuse, but he didn't expect him to agree readily and even gave Lin Zhu the key to the puppet studio.
Lin Zhu took it like a hot potato and received a look from Xiang Ping, the quiet guy in the three-man team.
When he left the puppet room, Xiang Ping was angry, "Some people are just lucky enough to get favored by the NPC. It seems that the points are far ahead."
Lin Zhu looks good-tempered and timid to outsiders.
But after spending so long with Cheng Miao and Qi Jiajia, she had long since turned into a white and black rice dumpling.
He deliberately hid the brass key, put on his glasses, and said in a gentle and weak voice, "Of course Brother Xiang is better. I just think fast and know more. How can I compete with Brother Xiang."
Xiang Ping was a big boy, but he didn't hear Lin Zhu's tea talk. He didn't realize it until the person left, and he was so angry that he said, "Hey! This little bastard!"
"Okay!" Gu Fan pinched his eyebrows and said, "Don't provoke them. Don't you see that they are stronger than us?"
Xiang Ping clenched his fists and said with some disdain, "That's not necessarily the case. Being good-looking doesn't necessarily mean you are strong."
After that, he ignored Gu Fan and A Qi and left.
Azhi sighed, "Brother Xiang's temper is really bad, and you will suffer a loss in the dungeon."
Gu Fan frowned tightly, "He had this temper before, and now that he's in this damn place, he still won't change."
Cheng Miao spent the whole afternoon wandering around the third floor. Xiao Dao was carving and painting in the studio, and Cheng Miao was wandering around outside.
"I think there's no problem with Yuko not showing up now, but I'm afraid Kojima's bedroom can't be entered easily."
Cheng Miao grabbed a bunch of his upturned hair and got into a tangle. Qiudong didn't say anything. He took Cheng Miao's hand off and pressed the hair flat.
Qin Musong, who was leaning against the wall, looked at the closed door and said, "If you want to go in, I can open the door."
Gu Jian covered her mouth exaggeratedly, "Big man, you are too violent."
After speaking, Gu Jian's eyes flickered from Cheng Miao and others, and aimed at the like-minded Qi Jiajia, "Doesn't anyone in your team know how to open a lock? Little sister, do you want to learn?"
