The next morning.
Zhang Zian, who opened the curtain Door, was surprised to see an uninvited guest at the door.
Meow~
A little guy was curled up in the corner of a shoe box, looking at him uneasily and letting out a weak cry.
Even little celery, who didnât allow pets to be kept at home, blurted out,ââYa! A little orange cat!â
âWhen did you come?â Zhang Zian asked.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Of course, he was not asking the orange cat, but little celery.
âGood Morning, brother store manager! Long time no see! I just came here and saw you squatting on the ground. I thought you were poking ants with a branch like the boys in my class, so I squatted down to look. â
Little celery was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and denim shorts. She squatted next to him and stared at the orange cat with him.
Zhang Zian: ââ¦Iâm long past the age of using a branch to poke ants!â
Then again, the orange cat in the shoe box looked only one or two weeks old. It might have just opened its eyes, so it was weak, pitiful, and helpless. In order to avoid the rising sun, it lay in the shade of the shoe box, meowing in a childish voice.
Even if Zhang Zian wasnât Sherlock Holmes, he could immediately guess that the owner of the orange cat didnât intend to raise it for unknown reasons, but he couldnât bear to leave it to its own fate, so he âkindlyâ put it in the shoe box and left it in front of the Pet Shop. Whether the Pet Shop owner adopted it or the customers who came to the Pet Shop to buy cats adopted it, it could save himself from the condemnation of his conscience and embrace a new life with confidence. To put it bluntly, it was some kind of moral kidnapping.
It was like abandoning a sick pet in a Pet Clinic. It was a very speechless thing. People who could do this kind of thing were probably used to pushing their difficulties to others in their daily life and work.
But there was no other way. Moral kidnapping was a kidnapping of people who still had morals and conscience.
Sun Xiaomeng couldnât bear to kick the pet abandoned in the clinic out, and he couldnât leave the kitten to its own fate. The sun at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn was still very poisonous. Today was a sunny day, and the sun was rising higher and higher. Once the last dark corner of the shoe box was hit by the sun, the kitten would probably be burned to death.
He picked up the shoe box and asked little celery to come into the shop with him.
The air conditioner was on in the shop early in the morning. Although the temperature was lower than it was in Midsummer, the elves were used to the coolness of the mahogany forest. If they didnât turn on the air conditioner, they would rebel.
âLittle celery, what are you doing here? School has started?â He placed the shoe box on the cashier and took out the leftover watermelon from last night from the refrigerator.âHave you had breakfast? Do you want two pieces of watermelon?â
Little celery had finished her breakfast, but she couldnât walk when she saw the cold watermelon. She didnât rush to see the hamster and the lop-eared rabbit, but happily took the watermelon. Her two big front teeth were like rodents, and they were quite suitable for eating watermelons!
Her mother didnât allow her to eat food from strangers outside, but the brother store manager was obviously not a stranger.
âSchool hasnât started yet, but itâll start soon.â She chewed on a watermelon and said,ââThereâs no extracurricular class today, so Iâm free. I wanted to see if brother store manager is back, and I just happened to run into him.â
âI just came back yesterday.â Zhang Zian started to clean up and thought about how to deal with the orange cat.
Zhang Zian noticed that she had spat all the watermelon seeds into her palm, so he motioned for her to just spit them on the ground. After all, she would be sweeping the floor later.
Little celery shook her head.âNo, Iâll feed Xiao Ling with watermelon seeds later!â By the way, Mr. Manager, was it fun United States?â
âItâs alright, but itâs a little messy. There are many homeless people, and the security is worse than in China. Iâm mainly going to the forest for a hike.â
Little celeryâs eyes lit up at the mention of the forest.âAre there many interesting animals in the forest?â
Zhang Zian told her about the animals he had encountered in the forest, such as golden rats, Beaver rats, horseback deers, Black-tailed deers, spotted owls, and so on. Of course, he omitted the ending of the Beaver rats becoming dinner.
Little celery listened with great interest. After eating two pieces of watermelon, she wrapped the seeds she spat out in paper towels and ran to wash her hands.
âYa! Thereâs another big dog!â She looked at Fati in surprise, then timidly looked back at Zhang Zian,âwhy does it look a bit like ⦠The wolf in man and nature?â
No, youâre wrong. Itâs actually ⦠Alaskan Malamute, just not very pure.â Zhang Zian referred to the wolf as a dog.
Woof woof!
The Fati barked twice and rolled on the ground, trying to imitate a dog and even wagging its tail.
Zhang Zian felt lucky that he didnât say it was a Husky, or else it would be hard to imitate the Huskyâs erjin â¦
Little celery blinked and said,ââIn the story my mom told me, dogs can wag their tails. Wolves canât wag their tails, but this one can. Itâs really a dog!â
She was already convinced by Zhang Zianâs pet knowledge, and after confirming it with her motherâs story, she was not afraid anymore.
No matter how her mother got this knowledge, it was a wrong knowledge that had been passed down from generation to generation. Wolves also wagged their tails, but Zhang Zian could not clarify it at this time, so he could only let the mistake be. After all, little celery would not meet other wolves in the city. After all, this was not the United States where coyotes were rampant.
Fati was not like the other elves who had a proud sense of identity to their own race. It did not care if it was a Wolf or a dog, as long as it could make the little girl in front of it feel at ease.
If it were fina, not to mention pretending to be a dog, even if it was asked to pretend to be a Tiger, it would definitely be angry.
Little celery washed her hands. She was not in a hurry to play with the hamster and the lop-eared rabbit. She had time anyway, so she picked up a rag and helped Zhang Zian clean up.
After a while.
âF * ck! Why was the door open? Did we forget to lock it last night, or was there a thief in the store?â
âWho was the last one to leave last night?â
âI forgot â¦â
âI also forgot â¦â
âWhat do we do? Do you want to call the police?â
Two foolish male voices came from outside the door.
Zhang Zian said,ââ¦Donât stand at the door and embarrass me!â Which thief would come to a pet shop to steal? Hurry up and get in here to work!â
Outside the door, Wang Qian and Li Kun looked at each other, stuck out their tongues, and then pushed the door open with a smile.âMaster, Iâm not convinced by what you said. Didnât the Holy Cat statue get stolen before? There are many thieves, and there are always some who donât open their eyes â¦â
After not seeing them for a while, the two brats seemed to have gotten a lot tanned. It seemed that they had driven the assault boat out to sea to play a lot.
When they saw the leftover watermelon rinds, they thought that the watermelons they had bought had been harvested by Zhang Zian, and they couldnât help but scream.
