After graduating for ten years, Luo Bo drifted through countless companies, yet remained a failure.
An unexpected event sent him back to that crossroad of graduation choices...
Luo Bo: ...
Tailor shop.
The owner of the store is an elderly man who is very open to new trends among young people.
Luo Bo simply handed over a few clearer pictures, and the shop owner took note. The handmade hooded suit felt very good to the touch.
After entering the fitting room and putting on his clothes, he put on his hood and looked in the mirror. He found that his clothes perfectly reproduced the solemnity and angularity of the doctor in the game. Satisfied, Robo took them off and put them on.
He came to the shop owner and asked about the price, and he paid the balance of 1,000 yuan. Luo Boyeli was also glad to have found a bargain. If it were a young boss, the cost of handmade cosplay costumes would be several times higher.
The live broadcast room had already taken a leave of absence. After the broadcast ended, I fell asleep while browsing my phone with the memory of the comic exhibition in my mind.
The subway was crowded as usual in the early morning, but Luo Bo had no choice but to get on the bus wearing a cosplay costume and covering his face. The people on the bus gave him a round of stares, and he sat down in the back seat by the window.
As the flow of people on the bus changed, I wasn't that noticeable sitting in the back, after all, my coat was still mainly black.
Penguin messages popped up on the mobile phone screen. Some of the people who had made appointments came from nearby cities and booked hotels nearby in advance. They were now queuing at the venue entrance.
Some groups drove directly to the venue and soon arrived. After having enough noise, the group members remembered that the group leader had not seen it yet, and they all @ed Luo Bo.
Luo Bo, who was watching their conversation from afar, also took a photo of the bus and posted it in the group.
Those who had already arrived enthusiastically suggested going to pick up Luo Bo. I smiled knowingly and typed two words in the group: Thank you.
Feeling his dormant heart come alive, Luo Bo joined the chatter and played along. This reminded him that he was still young and should have some youthful energy and drive.
Several people in strange clothes also squeezed onto the bus. They looked at the people on the bus and walked towards the back row.
"Hello, friend. Are you going to the **comic convention too?"
Luo Bo came back to his senses from the internet, looked at the cosplay of a character he didn't recognize, and subconsciously replied: "Uh, yes. Are you guys the same?"
The man brought two girls with him. The two girls were also wearing C-suits. They looked very good and had several delicate cameras hanging around their necks. It was obvious that they were professionals.
The man wiped it carefully first and sat down after the woman sat down. After the woman settled down, she turned around and asked, "Who is this character of yours?"
Arknights is still a relatively new 2D game, with no signs of breaking out yet. Luo Bo introduced it: "A character from the Arknights game. Looks cool, right?"
The other party also gave a thumbs up and praised: "It's really good, it looks like it's handmade."
The two girls looked at Luo Bo's outfit, and a hint of curiosity flashed in their eyes. They opened their phones and secretly searched for games. Seeing that the graphics looked good, they whispered to each other.
As they chatted, Luo Bo also learned that the other person's character was a character from an anime. Unfortunately, he had never seen it, so he could only agree with him and leave it at that.
After a while, the conversation turned to Arknights, and Luo Bo said, "I'm familiar with this." So, somehow finding the courage, he pulled out his Coin Station account and the game interface to start the conversation.
As for the two girls next to them, they also pricked up their ears and listened quietly, occasionally glancing at the screen of the mobile phone.
However, the lively atmosphere was interrupted at its climax because the destination had already been reached.
After they got off the bus, Luo Bo saw a few Ark characters, who also realized that he was the group leader. They couldn't help but chuckle and gathered around him: "Mule Bo, you made us wait so long."
Several people were also restless and were touching each other. Robo finally broke free from Andchel's hand. He saw three people he knew on the way in and out of the car, looking at their fight in surprise.
Luo Bo also waved his hand and said: "That's it, we'll meet again if we're lucky."
The taller woman among them couldn't help but say, "Leave me your contact information. Maybe we can go to the comic convention together next time."
Seeing the other party's clear eyes and graceful request, Luo Bo was also stunned. He glanced at the other party's WeChat and waved goodbye.
When the other person walked away, several people rushed over and said, "Mule Bo, you are really good. We have been waiting for you here for a long time, and you are going to pick up girls in the car, right?"
"Mulebo, you've changed. I've been following you since you started broadcasting. How could you possibly have fallen in love with someone else?"
Luo Bo looked at the horny Hei Jiao in horror and asked: "Who are you??"
I saw Hei Jiao adjusting his sunglasses, and an evil voice came from under the mask: "I am Oregano and I am about to explode!"
"No, Yamedie..."
Amidst the tragic cries, Luo Bo was carried by everyone all the way to the entrance of the venue.
The convention opened in half an hour, and the crowds were already gathering at the entrance. Many people gathered in groups, and soon they arrived at a gathering of Ark cosplayers.
There were about 50 people who had made the appointment, but only about 20 showed up. Most of the people who came were men, with only five women: two Amiya cosplayers, one Korciel cosplayer, one female doctor, and one Texas cosplayer.
Everyone saw Luo Bo and their eyes were filled with fascination. He looked so much like the doctor in the game that everyone's eyes lit up and asked where he bought the clothes.
Luo Bo looked at the man who was surrounding him and doing the same thing as before, and he couldn't help but dodge: "Stop touching me, this is custom-made, not bought. If you pull me again, my clothes will be torn."
Seeing Luo Bo's disheveled appearance, everyone let him go. However, someone had touched his stomach and butt a few times, and Luo Bo stopped and scanned them.
The boys seemed to be fine, but the girls were whispering to each other and looking over from time to time. When they saw Robo staring at them, Texas blinked.
After the girls around looked over, they couldn't help but blush and turned around to smile.
Luo Bo didn't know whether to be angry or happy. He was struggling and walked out the door.
Everyone quickly returned to the queue and slowly followed the flow of people.
Seeing that the people in the group hadn't arrived yet, those who had already arrived couldn't wait any longer and entered early. As for the unlucky twenty or so people who had bought tickets for tomorrow, they would have to miss out.
After queuing up to enter, the clamor inside made Luo Bo a little uncomfortable. After so many years of working in a quiet environment, this was his first time at a comic convention, and the noisy atmosphere made him a little nervous.
However, with the care of group members, the emotion soon turned to adrenaline and his face turned red.
After a group of people came in, they quickly formed groups of three or four and started to go shopping separately. Luo Bo happened to be assigned to a group with Oregano and Texas.
The Texas man was obviously not a veteran who had come here for the first time. He led the way with a sword, while he and his brother Oregano followed behind.
The girl from Texas is also a member of his live broadcast room, with the same name as the group ID. Luo Bo also calls her by her online name: Black Cat.
