The Senior 1 girl was cosplaying (角色扮演) "Curarpikt", a character from the popular Japanese comic book Hunter X Hunter (《猎人》)by Yoshihiro Togashi."I cosplay Curarpikt because I like him," said the pretty 15-year-old girl. "I’m moved by his sad story and I’m attracted by his cour age and personality." In the adventure comic story, Curarpikt, a handsome and kind-hearted boy, fights to become a hunter so he can capture(掳获) the people who killed his tribe(部落).Shi has read all the comic books and is a big fan of the animated series(动画片)of Hunter X Hunter. Then last year she saw a real "Curarpikt"in a cosplay show."I had watched cosplay shows before but only for fun," she explained. "It’s really exciting to see young people wearing the make up and costumes ofcharacters that you’ve read about and are familiar(熟悉的) with.""But that time I just fell in love with cosplaying, probably because I like Curarpikt so much. I thought I could play the character better, so I decided to have a go."Shi bought some cloth and asked a tailor to make a Curarpikt costume for her. She was happy to find out there was a cosplay show in Beijing in October."It’s a great way to spend the national holiday. Posing on the stage for all the comic book fans, I knew I was doing something I had always wanted to do," she said.But she never talks about her hobby with her parents."They think it will distract me from my studies. I don’t want to worry them, that’s my secret hobby," she said. "It’s also why I don’t dye my hair for cosplaying like all the others."（）31.
