Chapter 751: Xiaotong-chan’s First…
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
The biggest advantage of modern information technology is its speed and convenience. Its timeliness in disseminating information to the masses has managed to transform the modern world.
Sometimes, something said by someone can spread over a wide audience in a matter of seconds.
BaoEr’s seemingly accidental comment in her channel in the Attractive Section of Douyu was quickly traced to Zhang Xiaotong. Some people watching the stream while in the convention hall came over to look at Zhang Xiaotong out of curiosity.
‘Right!
‘How does Zhang Xiaotong actually look?’
The question was raised and it nagged the people like a small kitten that tickled one’s heart with its soft little paw.
Someone below the stage could not take it anymore and asked out loud if she could remove her mask.
This question happened to have scratched the itch in everyone’s hearts.
With someone leading the charge, the people all around the stage started asking the same question.
Her stage viewers did not have any malicious intent. In any case, Zhang Xiaotong had been streaming on Douyu for almost two years. Everyone knew who she was. However, no one knew what she looked like.
Their curiosity had snowballed over the weeks and months.
Liu Zilang heard the commotion around him. He was not worried about Zhang Xiaotong’s face reveal.
Zhang Xiaotong was not the type of female streamer who did not have the looks to back her up. She already looked like someone who had come into the real world from the anime dimension.
If she did not want to, Liu Zilang would immediately step on stage and help her escape. Liu Zilang was not too bothered about how random people thought about him.
Meanwhile, BaoEr, the female caster from the Attractive Section, came over from her corner to Zhang Xiaotong’s stage. She was holding a selfie stick.
She did not have an audience at that time. Seeing that potential drama was brewing at Zhang Xiaotong’s stage, it was the perfect chance for her to fuel the fire.
Not only that, but she had also been speculating on the reasons why Zhang Xiaotong never revealed her face…
Her live stream channel had about 200,000 popularity. The viewers in her channel saw the Platelet and Red Blood Cell on their screens and were surprised.
“What a cute Platelet!”
“Wow, isn’t that Xiaotong-chan from the MAG section?”
“Is Xiaotong-chan wearing a mask even when cosplaying? I’d like to see what she looks like!”
“Haha, I don’t think she’s as pretty as Sis BaoEr.”
“Yup, what’s the point of cosplaying without showing her face? BaoEr is the best!”
“…”
BaoEr was filled with delight when she saw the messages on her bullet screen. The smile on her face made hairline cracks in her makeup.
“Haha, you flatter me. But Xiaotong-chan is so cute, she must be pretty too,” she said with mock-humility.
On the “Cells at Work” stage.
Zhang Xiaotong saw how enthusiastic the crowd was.
She lowered her head as her hands clenched tightly to the hem of her dress. She seemed nervous.
Misaka Mikoto noticed her unease. “Xiaotong, let’s get off the stage and change. Don’t show them anything,” she told her in a small voice.
Liu Zilang, still holding a selfie stick, pushed aside a few people who were in his way. “Coming through! Excuse me, thanks!”
With a leap, he got on the stage.
In big-scale conventions as such, security staff were stationed at every stage to prevent any enthusiastic otakus from overstepping the bounds of modesty.
Seeing this man suddenly climb up the stage while holding a selfie stick, two security staff in White Blood Cell uniforms immediately stepped in to block him.
Liu Zilang thought that he was going to be hauled off stage when he saw the two people stepping in his way. He urgently told them, “She’s my sister. She might be a little nervous, I’m here to check on her.”
Everyone around the stage heard what Liu Zilang had said.
‘Isn’t that Vic?’
News from the professional esports circle was prolific among young people.
Major Chinese streaming platforms like Douyu, Huya, PandaTV, and Bilibili had broadcasting rights to such events. The popularity of the live streams on those platforms was in the millions. On Douyu, it even hit almost eight digits.
Liu Zilang’s performance at the world tournament had made huge waves around.
One could even say that people who viewed the tournament might not have known who the designer of PUBG was, but they definitely knew who Vic was…
Everyone’s attention was focused on Zhang Xiaotong and Misaka Mikoto’s appearances and they were snapping photos with their smartphones and cameras. With the attention of everyone on the two girls, no one paid any heed to him.
However, since Liu Zilang was suddenly on the stage, everyone surrounding the stage recognized who he was. The topic of their discussions quickly diverted to him.
“Tsk tsk, even Vic is here!”
“No wonder I felt like the guy with the selfie stick looked familiar. He has a despicable aura around him!”
“Brothers! Now’s our chance!”
“I’ve been waiting for this! If we beat Vic to death, then we can claim Xiaotong-chan as ours!”
“Don’t forget that Vic is a total sis-con! Do you think he’d let Xiaotong-chan reveal her face like that?”
“…”
The two security staff in White Blood Cell uniforms relaxed when they realized that the sudden intruder was someone familiar.
Nevertheless, they still looked toward Zhang Xiaotong and Misaka Mikoto to enquire what their next course of action should be.
Zhang Xiaotong’s eyes shined when she saw Liu Zilang.
As for Misaka Mikoto, she cried out in joy, “Shifu! Why are you here? Do you want to cosplay too?”
Black anime lines appeared on Liu Zilang’s face.
‘Cosplay your *ss!’
He walked over to Zhang Xiaotong whose head was still lowered. He smiled at her and joked as he said, “It’s alright if you don’t want to remove the mask. You’re still a kid.”
Zhang Xiaotong bit her lip when she heard him. She flared her nostrils. “Hmph, I’m not.”
Then, she lifted her hands and placed them on the loops of the mask that went around her ears.
Everyone around the stage and in the live stream channel became excited when they saw this. They stared at her with unblinking eyes.
Zhang Xiaotong noticed that everyone was looking at her. Her hands started shaking as her eyes darted around.
Liu Zilang furrowed his brows when he saw this. He gave her some words of encouragement, “Don’t be afraid. If you’ve already decided to do it, then go ahead. I’ll be here for you.”
‘I’ll be here for you.’
Zhang Xiaotong remembered those familiar words. She reflexively grasped the hem of Liu Zilang’s shirt, just like she had done a few years ago.
She drew a deep breath and then took off the mask that covered her face.
Whoosh!
Eyes from all over converged on her revealed face.
A pair of crystal-clear eyes, a petite and cute nose, porcelain-fine and milky-white skin.
With her cosplay costume, she looked like a pretty girl who had walked out of an anime series.
“So that’s… Xiaotong-chan?”
The people in attendance and in the live stream gasped when they saw her real face for the first time!
How could there be a girl in real life that looked so much like an anime character? No wonder her cosplay was so genuine.
BaoEr, the Douyu streamer who was watching from her stage, could not close her mouth. As her facial muscles twitched, the thick foundation makeup on her face fell and dusted her clothes…
