Stealing Pens: Travelers from the End of the World

"I was already dead when I came back." The black blind man reached into the water with a fishing net to retrieve the body. He also reminded Zhang Qiling, "Mute, this is not what I, the blind man, did to keep you alive."

"? Could it be me?" Tan Yuchen refused, so he fed them once on the day he left. It's impossible for them to die just once, right?

Zhang Qiling didn't want to talk to these two fools. He took the things back to the room and went out again.

"What's that look in his eyes?" Qin Yuchen asked.

"Pfft, I'm kidding you."

"Shit, I'm obviously laughing at you."

"Hey, blind man, I didn't mess with him, why are you laughing at me?"

"...No more arguing." Qin Yuchen threw the dead fish into the trash can and asked Hei Xiazi, "Want to buy fish?"

"Let's walk." Hei Xiazi put his arm on Qin Yuchen's shoulder and walked out together.

Qin Yuchen and Heixiazi drove to the Goldfish Shop again.

The boss here already knew them. When he saw Tan Yuchen and Hei Xiazi walking into the shop, he smiled and asked, "Are you here to buy fish again?"

The boss's familiar tone reached their ears, and the black blind man smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's still the same as before."

The boss walked to the fish tank and put the goldfish in it. After thinking about it again, he asked: "You two really don't think about raising other animals? For example, cats or dogs."

"No, no, no, we just like goldfish." Hei Xiazi waved his hand. They were not at home often, and cats and dogs require a lot of energy to take care of, so they couldn't.

Qin Yuchen came to the turtle tank, thinking that this thing should have a long life, so he pointed at the turtle and said to the boss: "Boss, here is another turtle."

He didn't believe it. He couldn't feed a little thing?

"Okay, which one do you want?"

Tan Yuchen pointed to the larger one and said, "This one."

The boss took out the big turtle, packed it up, and handed it to Tan Yuchen together with the goldfish's oxygen bag.

Qin Yuchen paid, and the boss symbolically said, "Welcome to visit next time."

The black blind man was sitting in the passenger seat holding two bags with a bright smile on his face: "Old Tan, what if you raise the turtle to death too?"

Qin Yuchen drove home with a numb face: "Then I'll stew you with it."

"Hahahahaha." The black blind man smiled without restraint, "Don't be like this, I can help you raise the blind man~"

"What if you die?" Tan Yuchen threw the question back.

The blind man didn't take it seriously. He lifted up the turtle's oxygen bag and poked it: "Old Tan, you have to have confidence in me, blind man. This turtle has a long life no matter what. Maybe it can stay with us for the rest of its life."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you told me to believe you after watching the fish farming tutorial last time." Qin Yuchen rolled his eyes, stopped the car and waited for the traffic light.

The blind man choked, and coughed twice to relieve the embarrassment: "A turtle can't compete with a goldfish. If it doesn't work, wouldn't we both be mute?"

"Ah."

Tan Yuchen and Hei Xiazi returned home carrying the goldfish and turtle. Zhang Qiling had not come back yet. They opened the bag and poured a dozen goldfish into the water, and then looked at the turtle getting worried.

"Do you want to check online?" Qin Yuchen asked.

"This method is feasible." Hei Xiazi went into the house and turned on the computer to search. "Huo, we have to build a step for it."

"Huh?" Tan Yuchen held his hands on the table and looked at the search results.

The page states that turtles are amphibians and breathe with their lungs, so they cannot stay in the water all the time, otherwise they will easily have difficulty breathing and get sick, and they must also ensure that the water is clean.

Tan Yuchen felt that the things he bought seemed more troublesome than goldfish. He scratched his hair irritably and asked, "What should I do?"

The fish pond in their yard is not too deep, but building a platform still requires a lot of stones. Although there is a rockery, the rockery cannot be used by turtles to climb at all.

"Are we going to look for stones in the forest?" The black blind man was also in trouble.

Tan Yuchen had no choice but to nod. He shouldn't buy things on a whim without any preparation.

The two of them went out again. The forest was not far from them, so it was only two or three minutes away. They walked around and finally found a few relatively large rocks.

Tan Yuchen and Heixiazi first moved the stones to the road, and then moved them back piece by piece.

As soon as they moved a piece into the house, they found Zhang Qiling pouring fish into the fish pond.

Qin Yuchen: "..."

Black blind man: "..."

Zhang Qiling also had an oxygen bag in his hand, which contained a relatively large turtle. It was similar in color to the one Qin Yuchen bought, but the shell was darker.

"Mr. Zhang, the turtle tank has been placed in the southeast of the living room as you requested. Do you think we still need to do more..."

The person who came out of the living room felt the air was filled with embarrassment. He didn't finish his words for a while. He looked at the three people in the courtyard. One was holding a turtle with an expressionless face, and two were holding stones in their hands with a speechless face. , he blinked, feeling as if he shouldn't be here.

Qin Yuchen let go of his hand first, and the blind man threw the stone aside:

"What did you put there?"

Zhang Qiling sighed, bent down and picked up the other turtle and handed it to the installer along with the one in his hand, asking him to put the two small things into the turtle tank: "Turtle tank."

"...fuck" Qin Yuchen felt that he was so stupid now. Why did he just have a trance and move stones with the black blind man?

Tan Yuchen kicked the blind man in the face, and became quite angry. The blind man smiled and put his arms around Tan Yuchen's shoulders and said, "Old Tan, you agreed without thinking. You can't blame me, the blind man."

After Zhang Qiling came back, he saw the turtle placed by the fish pond and knew that it should be bought by the two of them, but he looked around and found no one.

At this moment, you can tell from the shy and annoyed look on the stone and someone's face that they want to build a platform for the turtle in the fish pond.

Zhang Qiling sighed again, not understanding what the two people were thinking. He took Tan Yuchen out of the black blind man's hands and took him into the house.

As soon as I entered, I saw a large turtle tank placed behind the sofa. The turtle tank is a glass tank with very nice furnishings. The bottom layer is covered with water plants, some pebbles, and some small duckweeds. There is an entire turtle tank on the far right side of the tank. It is a larger rockery, half of which is exposed to the water, just enough for the turtle to lie on it.

The location chosen by Zhang Qiling is close to the window, and it is a sunny place, so it also provides a good opportunity for the turtle to bask in the sun.

The two turtles were placed on the rockery by the installation master. Zhang Qiling nodded to the two installation masters and signaled that that was it.

The two masters checked and found no problems before going out.

Qin Yuchen watched the two turtles stretching out their hind legs to bask in the sun with a dull face. Zhang Qiling put some food into the turtle tank and said to the people next to him: "It's easy to raise."

"Yes." Tan Yuchen responded, privately deciding that these two little things would also belong to Zhang Qiling.

He and Heixiazi should be in charge of the kitchen, and just let Zhang Qiling take care of the flowers and plants at home.

Tan Yuchen was very satisfied with his decision. He patted Zhang Qiling on the shoulder: "I believe you."

Zhang Qiling received the encouragement from Qin Yuchen, glanced at him helplessly, and silently agreed to the unspoken arrangement.

……

The number of fish in the fish pond increased from more than ten to more than twenty. People who didn't know better thought that this family was good at raising fish.

For example, Huo Xiuxiu, who rarely comes here, brought fresh vegetables to the courtyard with Xie Yuchen, and was a little surprised when she saw a pond of fish.

"Teacher, why are there so many fish here?"

Jie Yuchen laughed when he heard this question. He put the vegetables into the kitchen. When he came out, he heard Qin Yuchen say: "I bought them."

Huo Xiuxiu didn't think of the fact that a lot of them died before buying them. She just thought that Tan Yuchen liked to raise fish, so she just nodded.

Qin Yuchen glanced at Jie Yuchen who was snickering at the side, bit his back teeth and said with a smile: "Isn't this minister busy recently?"

"Well, nothing happened recently." Xie Yuchen said with a smile, not afraid of Qin Yuchen's eyes at all.

"Okay Master Hua'er, come on, blind man, I'll take you to see your teacher's tortoise." The blind man spoke at the right time and dragged Jie Yuchen to the living room.

Jie Yuchen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Teacher, don't you want to compete with goldfish?"

"Of course, there's another group in the pool~"

Huo Xiuxiu was a little confused, and Hei Xiazi was kind enough to help explain: "Your teacher has raised so many fish to death that I don't even know how many times the pond has been changed."

"..." Qin Yuchen quickly walked up to Heixiazi and slapped him on the back, "How dare you accuse me? Don't you do the same?"

Jie Yuchen quickly separated the two of them: "Okay, it's just fish. Teacher, you can come to me anytime if you like. Even if you want to raise an island of fish, it's no problem."

The black blind man pursed his lips, a little dissatisfied: "Master Hua'er, blind man, I also like fish~"

"Let's go." Qin Yuchen slapped the black blind man again, "If you want to do it yourself, ask me what's going on if my kid is a kid?"
