Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll - Chapter 1276
Chapter 1276 Du Fu 1 of Fanwai (Adding Gold to Change)
A giant ship broke the white waves in the vast blue sea.
The hull is magnificent and huge, with pointed masts pointing directly at the sky, like an elegant and beautiful giant whale.
This is a luxury cruise ship, carrying thousands of tourists, no matter day or night, always dancing and dancing.
Du has been working on this ship since he was 16 years old, six or seven years ago. He only disembarks twice a year, no more than 3 days each time, so he occasionally teases himself that he is an Indian-necked fish–
A fish that survives by adsorbing on large marine animals.
The weather was bad today. The captain detected that there was a large cumulonimbus cloud not far in front of him. I was afraid of a storm. So he ordered and closed the deck, including a series of entertainment items on the deck.
The tourists all gathered in the theater on the second floor of the cruise.
This place sometimes performs musicals and sometimes juggling, which is a good place to kill time.
At this time there was a lot of laughter, and the clown on stage was performing a bicycle juggling with his monkey partner. Tourists like this kind of hilarious performance, and there are laughter from time to time in the audience.
Contrary to the glamorous stage, the backstage dressing room is narrow and crowded, and the fragrance of perfume and sweat are mixed, and the ear is full of yelling and cursing.
“Damn! Where is the bunny girl?! Is the bunny girl ready? Come on!” The foreman yelled in the background.
A dozen bunny girls shoved over, stepped on high heels, pinched feather fans, like a noisy bee, buzzing toward the entrance of the stage.
The foreman squeezed hard beside Du Lai, lest he hear no voice, he shouted in Du Lai’s ear:
“It’s your turn with two more shows! Are you ready? The storm is coming, it’s best to have a new trick tonight! Let the guests know that they can have fun even without going to the deck!”
Du Lai was sorting out his prop box, and he nodded, “Understood.”
As the only magician on the ship, he has performed thousands of times for those magic routines. He has been tired and annoyed, but he is too lazy to think of new tricks.
The foreman always thought that designing the new magic was a breeze. Du Lai didn’t want to spend a lot of time explaining. Anyway, when the time came, it was a big deal to replace rabbits with pigeons.
The foreman patted his shoulder and turned to find other actors.
Du Lai continued to sort out the prop boxes, and Bas, who performed the talk show, shouted at him from afar: “Du Lai! Someone outside is looking for you!”
“Come!” Du Lai responded loudly, closing the box and going out.
…
Outside the dressing room, the same people came and went. A man in a dark brown jacket stood on the side of the corridor. When Du came out, he waved his hand.
Du Lai recognized the other party and couldn’t help but stunned.
“Du Lai.” The man smiled at him slightly, with deep crow’s feet in the corners of his eyes. “Why, I haven’t seen you in a few years, don’t you know me?”
“Master…” Du Lai was surprised and walked over to ask, “How did you come? When did you get on the boat?”
Du Lai’s magic is not self-taught, it is taught by the man in front of him, so he is called the master of the other party.
“Yesterday.” The man laughed. “I saw your performance yesterday, only to know that you haven’t left here all these years. Why, don’t you plan to disembark?”
Du Lai said with a smile: “You know me, and I don’t know what I can do when I get off the boat. It’s not bad now, at least it includes food and shelter, and a stable income.”
The man listened and looked around, his voice lowering: “Your income hasn’t risen in the past two years? This place is not very friendly to Asians. I bet that the guy who raises the monkey must pay more than you many.”
