Chapter 1436: Performance Art

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

On the way there, Snowy brainstormed other topics to talk about to make the audience forget their previous discomfort, but she couldn’t come up with anything. There were always some unobtrusive pulls back to the topic, which made her wonder whether today’s calendar told her not to broadcast at all?

Unexpectedly, there were many people around the door of the dog meat restaurant. It was as if something happened, which turned the audience’s interest from the dog meat itself to the curiosity of what happened.

Snowy paid the fare and got off the taxi. She saw that there were a lot of onlookers that were mostly male. They stretched their neck and tiptoes, with their faces filled with indescribable hunger. Something of great interest was in front of them.

The audience’s curiosity grew stronger, and they urged Snowy to squeeze in to take a closer look.

Snowy also thought of doing so. Relying on her slender and flexible mouth to utter sweet words, she said, “Uncle, uncle, let me through,” She was squeezed until all she could smell was body odor, but she finally made her way past the crowd.

“What?”

She saw a woman amongst the crowd, and Snowy exclaimed softly before a palm stretched out to cover her eyes.

“Children don’t look at this! What a terrible woman for doing this!”

Talking and covering her eyes was an elderly lady carrying a vegetable basket on her arm with a bunch of fresh vegetables in the basket. It seemed like she had just returned from a grocery market and was going home to cook rice.

Unfortunately, Snowy has already seen it.

It wasn’t that the lady who covered her eyes was saying something bad. However, this woman in the crowd was indeed “disgusting” in a sense.

The woman was fully naked and looked at the gaze of people around her calmly.

Her body was fully naked, but important parts were painted using thick oil paint with a type of leopard pattern. The black pattern on the yellow background was like a camouflage color that visually distracted people. Strictly speaking... everyone knew she was naked but couldn’t see anything that was considered to be scandalous.

No wonder there were so many men watching.

This was either a publicity stunt or performance art. The line between the two was highly blurred, making it difficult to differentiate them.

Snowy has seen some Westerners do this in the news. At that time, she secretly said that the Westerners were bold and open. She didn’t expect to see it in reality, especially not in this coastal area where folk customs meant people were not very open.

The woman was quite young based on her face and body type, about thirty years old. A handbag was placed under her feet, which contained her clothes and shoes.

The way she saw it, she came here in normal clothes, then suddenly began to undress until she was fully naked.

In the process, she attracted more and more onlookers. Everyone who noticed stopped and stared at her erratically.

Some people looked at her out of curiosity, while others did so out of surprise and freshness. There were also many people looking out of lust. Soon, the entire area was full of people.

Performance art pieces like this would’ve started many discussions in China today, then soon talked about even when they are abroad.

People were speculating about what she was doing. Did she have a mental problem? Did she escape from the mental hospital?

If she was a mental patient, she didn’t look like one because her eyes are firm and clear. Besides, this level of oil painting on her own body couldn’t have been the work of a mental patient.

Some elderly women like the lady covering Snowy’s eyes squeezed into the crowd purely out of indignation, ordering her to put on her clothes or trying to forcefully dress her. However, she silently refused.

Several elderly women changed their faces and began to swear and point at her. It was hard to hear clearly but they were scolding her for being a vixen on the street trying to seduce man, scolding her for disgracing her ancestors and eight generations. Some people also called her shameless and spat on her.

Even some of the onlookers couldn’t bear to hear these curses. However, she remained in her own world with her facial expression unchanged and accepted the harassment.

As for those open-minded young people, especially young girls, they tried to help her by justifying her actions. She was standing here without asking others to see, so why was it so bad?

She didn’t speak, but the young girls and the big ladies quarreled enough for the commotion to attract more people.

Even the taxi driver who brought Snowy over was no longer in his car. He got out of the car to stretch and perhaps loosen his trousers a little.

Many people were shooting the scene with their mobile phones, even squatting down or raising their mobile phones to find a suitable angle. Snowy deliberately avoided using the phone camera to shoot her since she realized that the woman was naked.

From just a glimpse of the situation, the audience in the live broadcast room probably figured out what was going on. Putting the dog meat debacle aside, they were speculating about why this woman was putting on this kind of performance art.

She was unlikely to be mentally ill, so she must have done it for a purpose.

Just then, someone outside the crowd shouted anxiously, “Let us pass! Let us pass!”

A white figure desperately squeezed in from the periphery.

People wanted to squeeze in to watch the excitement. Besides young girls like Snowy who may receive some preferential treatment, who else would’ve made way for them?

The man squeezed for a long time, squeezing so much he started sweating but he finally succeeded.

It was a middle-aged man wearing a white and yellow chef’s uniform, a chef’s hat, and an oily apron. His face was oily, and he has a long spoon in his hand. He looked like a chef who just ran out of the kitchen.

After the chef squeezed in, he didn’t stare at the woman like other men, but bowed at the people around him, begging: “Everyone, don’t look at her anymore! Please leave! We cannot do business at all with all of you here! ”

The guests in the nearby shops were all attracted to see the commotion. Even the employees in the shops ran out, especially from these restaurants. They could eat a meal less or eat late and be hungry, but this kind of show wasn’t as common.

Everyone noticed that the chef ‘s outfit had a light blue graphic mark on the chest depicting a bowl of fragrant meat. The text underneath is-Haiji Dog Meat Restaurant.

This woman was standing near the entrance of the Haiji Dog Meat Restaurant for performance art. The business of the Haiji Dog Meat Restaurant was the first to be affected.

No matter how much the chef begged, most of the onlookers simply ignored him, but a few people who came earlier and had seen enough left.

The woman suddenly moved, her eyes fell on the mark on the master’s chest. She stopped for a moment, then bent down, took out a rolled-up banner from the luggage, raised her arms to expand it, and slowly turned around so everyone could see it clearly.

The banner read “Dogs are human friends, don’t eat friends.”
