Chapter 10: Autism

Chapter 10 Autism

Pains were all around Zhou Yu’s body, and he didn’t have any pain relief patches that he could use to ease his pain. It as a true tragedy.

Luckily, he didn’t have any problems using the computer. Otherwise, he would be bored to the extent that he needed to count mosquitoes when lying on the bed.

However, whenever he thought that he would need to be beaten at least once a day in the next few days, his mind would be filled with indescribable agonies.

It was clearly the ACG world, but why there wasn’t a system to increase his physical strength. At least, he needed something that could help him to deal with those small beasts.

On the internet, the imprisoned Taoist’s reputation kept growing. His fans appreciated the HunterXhunter’s chapters that were released by him every day and looked forward to his original creation. With those encouraging words, Zhou Yu decided that he had to get the permanent comic studio. Otherwise, once the temporary one disappeared, he would have to go on ‘hiatus’ as well.

One chapter a day was the topic that the hunter fans discussed the most. Originally, they thought that the imprisoned Taoist had saved some chapters. But after non-stop continuously releasing the chapters for one month, it could only mean that the Taoist’s speed was indeed extraordinary.

The official Hunter X Hunter once again went on hiatus after it had just resumed update for a few weeks. It was said that the fan-made chapters gave the original manga artist a lot of pressure. So he had to change the original storyline.

People even began to make fun of it, saying that they had been living long enough to see that a Dojin artist would give so much pressure to the original manga artist.

Tencent animations and comics also leaked a piece of information, saying that the original artist would like to invite the Taoist to Japan to work with him on the official publication. If this cooperation was successful, then it would be great news for the Chinese Hunter fans.

It was a shame that the Taoist didn’t seem to be interested in that. He didn’t even bother to post a reply. He was still staying silent, meaning that he still didn’t change his decision. However, he clearly already had the talent that was required by the official publisher to join the field of drawing manga.

What was the most important thing, was that couldn’t he show who he was once!

Until now, no one knew who the Taoist really was, let alone knowing what he did for a living. If he really liked Hunter, why would he decline the official publisher’s invitation? It was working with his idol! Moreover, he would also be paid for it.

No one really understood him.

‘Going to Japan my ass, becoming a manga artist is completely different than liking drawing manga!’ This was the voice in Zhou Yu’s mind, not to mention that he didn’t like to go out. Besides, he didn’t want to leave those “animated toys” behind.

After uploading another chapter, he went to bed to sleep.

Zhou Yu noticed a strange thing when he got up the next day morning. There was an animated book next to his pillow and an instruction manual. Opening the book, he had a look inside. Apart from some empty slots, there weren’t any characters inside.

Judging from the size of the slots, Zhou Yu immediately understood that those slots were for the small beast cards.

The instruction manual said that this was The Beasts Encyclopedia. Apart from keeping the beast cards inside, it could be used to activate trap cards and magic cards to fight small beasts. However, there weren’t any House of Cards in the village, so at the moment, he could only use to store small beast cards.

After The Beasts Encyclopedia was activated, it began to float around Zhou Yu. By simply waving his hand, the encyclopedia would float before him. It was quite convenient for him.

‘Oh great, with this magic book-like thing floating around me, I can never get rid off the title – wizard(1),’ Zhou Yu was speechless.

A dull day continued…

……………………

The old village chief Zhou Hongyi was asked to take care of Zhou Yu by Zhou Yu’s father Zhou Hong. After he saw Zhou Yu’s weird behavior that day, he hesitated for a long time before he finally decided to call Zhou Hong. He couldn’t bear to see the kid act like this. If he couldn’t get any treatment soon, it would only get worse.

Having heard what happened, Zhou Hong was also extremely concerned. The kid, that always made them worried, still developed some new problems. Without any social life, and all he did was sit in front of the computer every day, it would only be strange if he didn’t have any problems.

However, what could he do?

What he should do, he had already done it. But the kid wouldn’t listen to him. Otherwise, he would not have moved to the village. If he forced him back to the city, it would only get worse!

Having thought it over and over again, eventually, he decided that he shouldn’t use force. The only way he could think of was to ask the old village chief to find some people to talk to his son more often. He wanted to see if this would improve his son’s situation or not. If it couldn’t, then he would have to get him back to the city.

Putting down the phone, the old village chief began to think who he could find to talk to Zhou Yu, while smoking a cigarette. His little grandson was getting alone with Zhou Yu quite well recently. But the age gap was a problem, they wouldn’t be able to find many common topics to talk about. However, there weren’t many young men still live in the village. The only few young men that were still living in the village were busy working during the day time. No one had that kind of time to chat with Zhou Yu.

Just when he started to have headaches, an energetic girl’s voice appeared behind him, “grandpa I’m back!”

Looking back, it was his granddaughter He Yuanyuan. He had heard that she got into a quite good university. In order to reward her. Her parents had agreed with her, that she could travel around the country. He didn’t expect that she would come back today.

Casually putting down many small bags and a big suitcase on the side, she started to greet everyone she saw. Her cheerful and outgoing personality was vividly displayed.

‘Maybe, she can help with Zhou Yu’s problem?’ the old village Chief suddenly thought.

………………………

He Yuanyuan felt gloomy. She just came back less than two days and she hadn’t had a chance to talk to her best friend, who she grew up with, but she was asked to talk to an autistic person, who never came out of his house, by his grandpa.

“Shuyu, do you know Zhou Yu this person?”

Zhou Shuyu was He Yuanyuan’s close friend. They both got into the same university. Having troubles to figure out a way to complete her mission, He Yuanyuan sought advice from her bestie.

“Of course, how can I not know. He is very famous in our village.”

Although she had never seen him in person, she had heard all kinds of rumors about him. So she began to tell He Yuanyuan all the rumors she had heard, such as never came out of the house, never talked to anyone, his skin was as pale as the zombies in movies…

Surprisingly, all kinds of rumors made He Yuanyuan more and more curious about Zhou Yu. Hence, she decided to go to Zhou Yu’s house and see him in person. Of course, the person who led them there was Zhou Hao, who went to Zhou Yu’s house the most often. Just one pack of snack was more than enough to make this brat to help them happily.

“Sister Yuan, brother Yu is a good person, he just does not like to talk much. His fishing rod is very very pretty. Comparing it to ‘the dragon’s whisker’, which is the best fishing rod that our grandpa has, the dragon’s whisker is like an ugly stick. Also, also, the small house he made is also very pretty. It was made from our tree…”

Zhou Hou, who was bribed with a pack of snack, was constantly telling them all kinds of information he knew about Zhou Yu. With this random information, it made He Yuanyuan even more curious about this “autistic” person. Before she was still reluctant, but now she had changed her mind.

Soon, they arrived before Zhou Yu’s yard.

After knocking on the door, a pale-skinned young man, who seemed to be ill soon opened the door for them. The young man’s hair was disheveled and his clothing clearly had not been changed for days. Moreover, his entire body constantly reeked out with a strong vibe of aloofness, forbidding anyone from nearing him. It was exactly the type of person that He Yuanyuan had imagined.
