Capítulo 1275: Chapter 1275: Extra Story of Du Fu 1 (Additional Content for Jinzi)
A giant ship breaks through the white waves on the vast blue sea.
The ship’s body is magnificent and huge, with sharp masts pointing towards the sky like a graceful and beautiful giant whale.
This is a luxury cruise ship carrying thousands of tourists, where music and dance never cease, whether day or night.
Du Lai has been working on this ship since he was sixteen, which has been six or seven years by now. He gets off the ship only twice a year, each ti for no more than three days, so he sotis jokes about himself, saying he’s like a sucker fish—
A fish that survives by attaching itself to large marine animals.
The weather is bad today, and the captain has detected a large area of rain clouds ahead, fearing a storm, he issued an order to close the deck, including a series of entertainnt projects on the deck.
The tourists have all gathered in the theater on the second floor of the cruise ship.
Sotis this place hosts musical and dance performances, sotis it hosts acrobatics, it’s a good place to kill ti.
At this mont, laughter bursts forth as the Clown is performing bicycle acrobatics with his monkey partner on stage. Tourists love this kind of codic act, and the audience occasionally erupts in laughter.
In stark contrast to the bright and dazzling stage, the backstage dressing room is narrow and crowded, with a mix of powder and sweat, accompanied by shouting and cursing in the ears.
“Damn it! Where’s the bunny girl?! Is the bunny girl ready? Go on stage!” The headmaster yells at the top of his lungs backstage.
Dozens of bunny girls push and squeeze, wearing high heels and clutching feather fans, like a noisy swarm of bees buzzing towards the stage entrance.
The headmaster squeezes over to Du Lai’s side with difficulty, fearing he might not hear, and shouts loudly in Du Lai’s ear:
“You’re on in two more acts! Are you ready? The storm is coming, it’s best to have sothing special tonight! Let the guests know that even without the deck, they can still have fun!”
Du Lai is sorting his prop box, nodded when he heard it, “Got it.”
As the only magician on the ship, he has perford those magic routines thousands of tis, and is already fed up and tired, too lazy to think of new tricks.
The headmaster always thinks designing new magic is an easy thing, Du Lai didn’t want to bother explaining, anyway, at that ti, he could just swap the rabbit for a pigeon.
The headmaster pats his shoulder and turns to find other perforrs.
Du Lai continues to sort the prop box, while Bas, who performs the talk show, shouts at him from a distance, “Du Lai! Soone’s looking for you outside!”
“Coming!” Du Lai raised his voice to respond, closed the box and went out.
…
Outside the dressing room, people are also coming and going, a man in a dark brown jacket stands on one side of the corridor, seeing Du Lai coming out, raises his hand to wave.
Du Lai recognizes him, and couldn’t help but be stunned.
“Du Lai.” The man smiled slightly at him, deep crow’s feet at the corners of his eyes, “What’s the matter? Haven’t seen for a few years and don’t recognize ?”
“Master…” Du Lai asked in surprise, walking over, “How did you co here? When did you board the ship?”
Du Lai’s magic was not self-taught but taught by this man before him, hence he calls him Master.
“Yesterday.” The man smiled, “I watched your performance yesterday and just realized you haven’t left here in all these years, what, you don’t plan on getting off the ship anymore?”
Du Lai laughed, “You know , if I got off the ship, I wouldn’t know what to do with myself. This way is not bad, at least food and lodging are taken care of, and the inco is stable.”
The man listened, looked around, lowered his voice a little: “Your inco hasn’t increased these two years, right? This place isn’t very friendly to Asians, I bet that guy who raises monkeys must be paid more than you.”
