【2023 Weiwuying Children's Festival】Grand Parade: Spaceship Journey of Lulu
Since Lulu came to Weiwuying from WY100, it has become fond of the arts here, which thrive like plants. The arts are able to bring one positive emotions, protecting the mind like a shield. In addition, they are able to bring positive energies, leading to the growth of the plants here.
Lulu has a dream, which is to fly back to WY100 by a forest spaceship and bring more of its kind to live at Weiwuying, close to the arts. Fed with the arts, plants in a forest will grow "star fruit," which can serve as the fuel for a "forest spaceship," and thus to realize Lulu's dream faster. Lulu tries its best to let the forest plants listen to music every day. The positive energies brought by a piano are particularly adored by the forest plants, which grow more star fruits when listening to its music.
Mischievous Lele locked the piano and took away the key one day, leaving the piano silent. Everyone chased after Lele, and Lulu also called upon us to send the arts or music in our own preferred way to the forest plants. As soon as there are enough of star fruits for the forest spaceship, Lulu can depart right away!
