"Hello?"

The boy calls out.

He looks around, seeing artifacts and various items around the little shop.

He explores, playing among the shelves.

He knocks a suit of armour, causing a flagpole to fall and launch a tray of teacups into the air.

Mr. Liu catches them all expertly, and frowns when he sees the boy.

"Boy..."

Mr. Liu kicks the flagpole back and places the cups back on the tray, and sighs.

"Wow... That was amazing."

The boy says.

Mr. Liu frowns.

"Why don't you play outside with your friends?"

The boy shrugs.

"I don't know."

Mr. Liu taps his chin.

"Come here. You don't know, Huh?"

The boy sighs.

"Sometimes they make fun of me."

Mr. Liu frowns.

"Hm."

The boy points at the snake, closed inside a jar.

"Is that real?"

Mr. Liu smiles.

"Yes, it's real. Everything here is real."

The boy gasps, and says,

"Whoa. Is that real?"

Mr. Liu scowls at the cat.

"That cat is real. Real monster."

The cat growls, and Mr Liu hisses back. He points to the toy in the boy's hand.

"What's that?"

"This? This is Lloyd."

"Hmm. He looks like a very brave fighter."

The boy laughs.

"No, he's just a kid. He can't do anything."

"But he might look different..."

Mr. Liu puts the Lloyd in a cloth and pulls it out to reveal it in perfect condition, wearing a gi.

"...but he can do great things."

Mr. Liu grins.

The boys looks at the new figure, eyes sparkling.

"Whoa..."

Mr. Liu says,

"You just have to look at it from a different point of view."

Mr Liu pulls out a wooden box and blows the dust off of it, causing the boy to cough.

Mr Liu apologizes,

"Ah, dui bu qi (sorry)."

Mr. Liu opens the box to reveal a wooden figure of an old man with a long beard, Wu.
