Butler Fu brought Baby Chu to Wanbao Shopping Mall for an outing.
Wanbao Shopping Mall had a very famous children’s entertainment center called “Smart Kiddie”. There were many game machines suitable for the little kids to play. Baby Chu had never seen such a bustling shopping mall, much less such a lively entertainment center. “Smart Kiddie” sold products for babies between 0 to 13 years old. There were clothes, milk powder, calcium tablets, and toys.
When Baby Chu, who was originally in a gloomy mood, stepped into “Smart Kiddie”, he was immediately attracted by the many toys displayed there.
Instantly, he was overcome with delight. All his unhappiness was thrown to the back of his mind!
“Look, look!” Baby Chu ran over to a Whack-a-Mole game console, his eyes shining. “What’s this?”
Butler Fu walked over and squatted down beside him. Then, he said patiently, “This is a game console! Do you see these mice?”
After a pause, Butler Fu smiled and picked up the small red hammer hanging by the side. He handed it to Baby Chu and explained, “When the game starts, the mice’s heads will pop out of the hole. You’ll have to use the small hammer to smash their heads. This way, you will get one point!”
“Wow!” Baby Chu’s eyes sparkled brightly.
It seems very fun!
Baby Chu’s eyes were filled with anticipation. “Does this game require money to play?”
Although the little boy was still young, he already understood the concept of money.
He knew that when he went out, there were many things that cost money.
However, his mother had instructed him not to spend someone else’s money so casually.
Hence, he did not say that he wanted to play the game. Instead, he looked at the game machine, which was constantly flashing with red lights, with a yearning look.
Naturally, Butler Fu read his mind. He smiled knowingly and immediately called for the shop assistant. He bought some tokens and went back to the game machine. When he saw that Baby Chu was still holding the small hammer and motionlessly staring at this novel toy, he deliberately teased him, “Do you want to play?”
“Yes!” Baby Chu nodded his head without thinking much. However, he suddenly thought of something and said carefully, “This game costs money! Forget it! I’ll just look at it without playing!”
“Here!” Butler Fu opened his palm. Baby Chu glanced over and saw a few game tokens lying in his palm. He was surprised. “What is this?”
“Game tokens! As long as you insert the tokens, you can play!”
Once he heard that he could play the game, Baby Chu could not help but feel excited. His face was flushed red with excitement and anticipation. He probed, “Can I really play?”
“Yes! Of course!”
Butler Fu smiled and inserted a game token into the machine. After a while, the screen showed “Start”. He urged softly, “The game has started!”
“Ah!” Baby immediately raised the small hammer and smashed it heavily on the mouse’s head that popped out of the hole!
“Squeak, squeak!”
The “little mouse” let out a pitiful squeak and retreated back into the hole.
“How fun! How fun!”
It was Baby Chu’s first time playing the game, so his reaction was not particularly fast.
