One day morning,when Joe was thinking why his friends did not show up on time at the corner they deal to meet. In the meantime,he got a call from a strange number. He quickly picked up,the stranger said”Come to Mai-Su Lee Memorial Gallery to save your friends! Don’t even think about calling the police or I will kill this two adorable kids.”then the man just hanged out the phone without listen Joe’s answer. The voice sounds like an old man. With confused and nervous, however, Joe still decided to go to Mai-Su Lee Memorial Gallery to check it out.
While he arrived at the gate of Mai-Su Lee Memorial Gallery , the gate was open. He looking inside,it was darked,very very dark, even the sunshine was strong outside. He step into the dark ,wet and gloom gallery with afraid. He walked slowly,he’s feet trembling,and he’s heart pounding loudly. Unbelievable, Joe raise his head and watch the paint hang on the old yellowed wall. “It does not like this before.” he though.
“This one is......”looking the paint in front of his eyes,he said. For a while, he realize this paint is the famous work of Mai Su Lee.The paint called”Washing clothes by the clear stream (清溪浣衣)”
“OH MY GOD!Does anyone manage here?Even the most famous paint become broken like this!”He was very shocked.He keeps going ,on the way all the paints just like ”Washing clothes by the clear stream (清溪浣衣)”,or even worse....
Unconsciously,he walked to the end of the corridor. There has a paint which different from another works.Joe found this one was perfect ,bright color and looks like just have been done at last one second.
Suddenly,a sound comes from the broadcast in the galley ,it is the voice of the man who called Joe in the morning ”HA!HA!HA!Do you notice the paint hang in front of you?Your friends sealed in this paint by me.HAHAHA,if you want to save them , just put your palm on it and get into this paint,your friends will tell you how to save them.” the sound gone again,leave the gallery quietly.
“Enter....the paint?If he is lie to me what i should do...?If I can’t get out of the paint what I should do...?Umm...what ever,I must to go inside and check it out!”With struggling,Joe courageously put his palm on ,and close his eyes timid. Upon putting his hand on the painting,he immediately feel a strong attractive force him into the paint.
Joe slowly open his eyes,and surprisingly fine he just stand in the Sanxia Old Street. Joe look around the old street that crowd of people with confused. At the same time , he heard his friends,Church and Jasmine, calling his name.He turned his head to face the sound, and he find the two guys handing ice creams and waving another hand to him. He quickly walk forward to them,and say with anxiously”Why you are here? ”Jasmine answer with interrogatory ” Why we are here...?The question was strange,Joe.” “But...but...I think both of you was kidnapping by a strange man!” “ We are fine.Do not worry, Joe.We just invited to be a model by this senior .” Jasmine turn to the senior and keep saying “ He is good at painting!” The senior start to talk” Hey, kids , your name is Joe right? I hear them said you are a warmhearted person to help other who need help.” “You are the man who talk to me in the morning! ” “Yes,it’s me, I am Mai-Su Lee.” “ Mai-Su Lee.....OH!You are the famous painter! Sorry for rude to you,I just too worry about them....” “Kid, it’s okay. And here are few things that I need all of you to help me, are you willing to help me? “ “ Sure! Mr.Lee.”said by three of them. “We are happy that we can help you .But what do you want us to help you?”Church said. Mai-Su Lee answer”Umm...good question.Joe, I saw that you are very love my panting,right?”“Yes sir.”“ And my big part of my painting was not attract contemporary people, it had been careless and started to broken...I want to let people remember me and treat my paint carefully.
” Mai-Su Lee seems very sad. “ We promise we will help you.but first yo have to let us back to real world” “Oh!I almost forget this, just put your hand on the paint hand in my hand, and you can go back. Thank you,kids. I trust you can accomplish my request.”
After answer Mai-Su Lee, they put their palms on the paint which held in the hand of Mai-Su Lee.When they open their eyes on the next moment, they realize they are come back the real world. With astonishment, Jasmine look into the paint which hang on the wall “Well, does this paint is that one we are in there just a moment ago?It’s sounds like a dream! So amazing.“ Upon listen what she said, Church look this paint careful,he answer with his finger point on the corner in the paint ”Yes, it is!Look , we are here!”Joe turn to face Church and Jasmine,and said”You know that?I was so worry about both of you.I though you are in danger....”With remorseful,Jasmine said “I so sorry about that,Joe.”“It’s alright,in addition,how can we help Mai-Su Lee?”Joe said. “Umm,how about clean this gallery first?”Church answer. “Sounds good! Then,lets go home separately and prepare the necessity for clean here.”Joe said. “Great!I Agree, lets do it! ”Jasmine said. “ See you guys.”they say good bye to each other.
Next day morning, when sun arise from the mountain top, Joe, Church and Jasmine show up at the Mai-Su Lee Memorial Gallery. They bring some items for cleaning , and start what they have to do.” They beginning with spider web on ceiling, wipe the dust adhere on the paint,apply the oil paint again. After few hours,Mai-Su Lee Memorial Gallery looks like new,they lie on the ground, sweep the sight,Joe said “So tired, but it is worth.” “Yes! It like a new one.And what do we do next?”Jasmine said. “Oh!I almost forget it,Jasmine thank you for remind me. I promise I will let the contemporary people pay more attention on the work of Mai-Su Lee. But what should I do?”Joe answer with disheartened. “Hey guys,I figure out a great idea!”Church said. “What kind of idea you figure out?”Joe and Jasmine turn their head to Church. “Joe,you are a warmhearted person,you can go to‘ The Zu-shi Temple’and show tourist the history of Mai-Su Lee. Jasmine, you have a great ability of eloquence,you can stay here to introduce the painting and the entire life of Mai-Su Lee. And I will sent the flier to promote the Mai-Su Lee Memorial Gallery reopen.”Church said. “That was awesome! Let’s do it!”Joe and Jasmine agree what Church said.
They stand up and start to do it,they spread the paint of Mai-Su Lee.Many locals are not interesting on their act, in the binging.But as the time pass,the locals are understand what their doing and why they want to do this things.So,the locals are turn their minds,and help Joe,Jasmine and Church to be a guide in the temple and gallery.By doing this,more and more people realize the art is more important than smart phone,and pay more attention on it,while other people join the activity of protecting art.The government also reward Joe, Church and Jasmine for what they have done, and encourage artist to restore the paint which was broken.
One day they are talking about what they doing .”I can't believe we can do it!”said by Joe.”We're let the locals know more about Mai-Su Li and the tourist know more about his painting.”said by Church.”Yeah,but I miss Mr.Mai-Su .His is a kind person .”said by Jasmine.”Me too.”said by Joe and Church.”I just want to see him again.”said by Jasmine.”Maybe you can see him at your dream.”said by Church.”I hope so.”said by Jasmine.In the night, when Joe was doing his english homework,he got a call from a strange number again.however this time Joe know who call him, he quickly pick it up,and the other side person,Mai-Su Lee,said “Joe,thank you for your guys doing.”
