"Why are you standing so far away?"
Lu Ban looked at Feng Yu who was moving away from him and asked.
"This way, if something unexpected happens, I can escape immediately."
Feng Yu said as a matter of course.
She kept staring at the beautiful college girl next to Lu Ban.
Baobao didn't seem restrained at all. She looked around Lu Ban, buying some snacks here and taking photos there, just like a little girl going out with her boyfriend.
Fortunately, for the traffic safety of Miskatoke, Lu Ban still wore the mask properly, and others could not recognize him.
For ordinary people, wearing a mask to cover the lower half of the face may make them look more beautiful and handsome, because the facial features of people who are not so good-looking are more or less flawed and inharmonious, and sometimes it looks better to cover half of the face.
But for someone like Lu Ban, whose appearance has reached the limit of human beauty, any flaw would be fatal.
It’s like a math problem with a perfect proof and only one way to prove it. If you delete or modify some of it at random, it will only be superfluous.
Therefore, Lu Ban’s appearance was greatly reduced when he put on the mask.
After walking for ten minutes, only three girls almost fell or bumped into telephone poles or fire hydrants because they didn't pay attention to the road they were walking on.
This is cause for celebration.
Compared to Lu Ban, more people paid attention to Bao Bao.
Her incarnations in the Wasted City all possessed extraordinary charm, which ordinary people would find difficult to escape even under normal circumstances, and her incarnation in this world, Leopard, naturally inherited that charm as well.
Different from the charm of a mature woman, Baobao exudes the youth and innocence of a girl, just like when you are walking on a forest path in the early morning, and suddenly a cute cat comes out, comes to your feet, rubs your trouser leg gently with the tip of its tail, and then rolls on the green grass while meowing at you.
It's totally irresistible.
Therefore, although the traffic in Miskatoke did not cause any accidents due to Lu Ban's good looks, it was congested because of the leopard beside Lu Ban. Even if the leopard was 99% wrong, Lu Ban should also be 1% wrong.
Lu Ban bought a mask for Baobao at a convenience store on the street.
“It’s hard to breathe.”
Leopard protested as he reluctantly put on his mask.
Then, Lu Ban saw several cracks on her fair neck, which opened and closed slightly like the gills of a shark, as if she was breathing.
Snap——
Lu Ban covered the fish's gills with both hands.
"It's so painful. I'm dying."
A hoarse sound came from Leopard's throat.
"childish."
Feng Yu on the side commented.
"Some of these things are very childish for elementary school students, but they are just right for a girl my age."
The crack on Leopard's neck closed up, and it became smooth and white again, a look that made you want to stick your tongue on it.
"I don't want to wear a mask. I'll just change my appearance."
Baobao did seem to be very resistant to this equipment that blocked her breathing. As soon as she finished speaking, her face changed subtly and she became a different person.
"Look, look, how about this?"
Baobao turned around in front of Lu Ban.
She had black hair and amber eyes, exactly like the priestess who burned to ashes on Wajima Island.
It was as if she had really come into this world.
"Stop it."
Lu Ban rubbed her head.
Leopard Leopard changed again, returning to his original appearance, with only some differences in the details. Just subtle changes made his whole temperament different, from an appearance of 90 to an appearance of 80. Although he was still beautiful, he was not as eye-catching.
"I thought you would like it."
She muttered something.
"hehe."
Feng Yu sneered at the side.
"I think you did it on purpose."
"Isn't it interesting? I am the best at changing my appearance. And I can imitate not only the appearance, but also the physical details and personality memory."
Baobao straightened his chest and turned to look at Lu Ban.
“Where do we go next?”
"Since the film festival has invited me, I'll go to their organizing committee."
Lu Ban didn't pay attention to what Baobao said. For the incarnation of this kind of foreign god, especially the incarnation of a god who likes to stir up trouble and have fun, this level of dancing in a minefield is not rare, but at least commonplace.
What's more, Leopard likes human chaotic emotions the most. The changes in human emotions, extreme emotions, and chaotic thoughts are all her favorites.
Therefore, this behavior of trying to stir up Lu Ban's emotions is reasonable.
Lu Ban and others soon arrived at the location of the film festival organizing committee. Although it was hosted by a university, the organizing committee's office was not located on the campus, but in a low office building on the hillside in the northwest of the city. The building looked quite old. Opposite the office building was a hospital.
From here you can overlook half of the city, which is considered a high point in Miskatoke.
Lu Ban glanced at the sign above, which read "Arkham Asylum". The iron gate of the entrance was closed. There were many Gothic spires standing inside, which also looked like an ancient monument.
"People in foreign countries are really simple and honest. They just named it a lunatic asylum."
Lu Ban sighed and said that when he saw the mental hospital, he felt a sense of intimacy and familiarity, and he immediately wanted to visit it if he had the chance.
But now it’s important to get down to business.
Lu Ban walked into the building.
"Hello, I received an invitation to serve as a judge for this film festival."
He politely showed the invitation on his phone to the receptionist.
But when the other party saw the black invitation letter, he frowned.
"Uh, excuse me, sir, this invitation seems a little, wrong?"
The receptionist carefully confirmed it twice before speaking hesitantly.
"Isn't that right?"
Lu Ban looked at the invitation letter carefully.
"Oh, sorry, I made that up."
Feng Yu suddenly spoke as if he remembered something.
"?"
Lu Ban looked at Feng Yu.
"Then why didn't you say it just now?"
"You didn't ask."
Feng Yu looked as if it had nothing to do with him. He stood aside and watched the show with a smile on his face. He even took out a bag of melon seeds from somewhere.
"It's okay. If you reveal your identity, they may not be able to beg you for mercy."
She added.
Lu Ban then took off his mask.
After seeing Lu Ban's appearance clearly, the receptionist couldn't close her mouth immediately.
"You...you are Director Lu Ban?"
She asked in astonishment.
“It’s me.”
Lu Ban nodded.
“I heard that there are many excellent works at the Miskatoc Film Festival, so I wanted to come and taste them.”
Hearing Lu Ban's words, the lady at the front desk immediately panicked and picked up the phone to call the organizing committee office. A moment later, several people hurried out of the office.
"Director Lu Ban, you should have informed us earlier so that we could send someone to pick you up at the airport."
Said the man in his fifties who was in the lead.
"It's okay, I'm just strolling around, your film festival is pretty good."
Lu Ban paused and asked again.
"By the way, we don't have a place to stay yet, can you help arrange a few rooms?"
He did not forget his original purpose.
