Starship: Traveling with Monsters

When Lei Yu woke up, it must have been night, and the TV that was not turned off was playing a boring TV series, making a loud and piercing sound. Lei Yu rubbed his ears, and found that he was lying on the sofa unknowingly, so he crawled Get up, touch your arms subconsciously—Ah Zi?

"Ah Zi—?"

Lei Yu looked around, but didn't see a familiar figure, so he got up from the sofa and started looking for his little Ah Zi.

He lifted the cushion of the sofa first, but there was nothing inside, so he knelt on the ground and tilted his head to look under the sofa.Finally squatted down to check the cabinet. "Could it be shrunk into the closet?" Lei Yu muttered, and went into the bedroom and opened the closet. He pulled out all the clothes, but there was nothing in the closet, so he began to check the bed again, and found it from the bedroom. The bathroom, turned around in the bathroom, and finally rummaged through the kitchen. He searched for all possible hiding places, but he didn't see Ah Zi.

Lei Yu finally stood by the window and touched the foggy glass.At this time, the weather is cold, and the indoor temperature is very different from the outdoor temperature, so a thin layer of mist will be covered on the glass, and when it is printed on by hand, it will leave obvious marks.Lei Yu wiped away the water vapor on the glass with his hands. It was dim outside the window, with faint stars flickering. He took a breath and suddenly had an idea.

—AhZi probably ran outside.

As soon as this thought appeared, my heart felt a little cold.AhZi is different from cats and dogs. If he ran out, he might not know whether he would come back, or even he didn't know how to come back.Moreover, it is relatively small and hard to find. Given the current situation where Lei Yu is being hunted everywhere, he has no way to go out and look for that stupid little monster.

But, is it just sitting here waiting to die?

Lei Yu was a little restless. He walked back and forth in the living room, trying to sit down, but after sitting for a while, he stood up again and continued to pace back and forth. The more time passed, the more nervous he felt. I don't know when Ah Zi went out, what she did when she went out, where she was, or...has she been caught?

Lei Yu couldn't stand anymore, what would happen if he was caught?Lei Yu hardly dared to think about how he would be treated. He turned around, picked up the coat on the sofa, and walked towards the entrance door. Just as he was holding the doorknob, he suddenly heard a small sound coming from outside the door—like a cat walking. The sound of grinding claws.

With a tremor in his heart, Lei Yu opened the door, and sure enough, Ah Zi was laying on the ground and scratching at the door vigorously!

"Idiot!" Lei Yu cursed dumbfoundedly, squatted down and stretched out his hands to hug him.

"Woo--" Ah Zi opened her eyes wide and looked at Lei Yu pitifully, and rubbed against Lei Yu's arms twice.Lei Yu wanted to scold him just now, but his heart softened, and he rubbed the little guy's face: "Where did you go?"

"Wow..." Little Ah Zi suddenly raised his tail, Lei Yu took a closer look and found that he was hooking something with his tail.

Two small white flowers are really rare in the autumn when the weather turns cold and everything withers. I don't know where the little guy got it, and it seems that he got more than just flowers, and there is one in his paw——

Lei Yu picked up Ah Zi, and suddenly found that what he was holding in his claws was a young bird that kept flapping its immature wings. bloodstained...

"Oh my God." Lei Yu shook his head helplessly. This stupid little monster must have been ripped off from the bird's nest in the tree. "Look at what you have done. Are you looking for your prey?"

"Wow——" Ah Zi yelled twice seemingly triumphantly, and confessed the prey to Lei Yu as if offering a treasure. Lei Yu frowned. He should have thought that Ah Zi was different from human beings.The habits of those monsters are estimated to be more inclined to wild beasts. For them, looking for prey to hunt is an instinct they have taken for granted since they opened their eyes and came to this world.

Of course Ah Zi was no exception.

The question is, what if one day he takes humans as prey too?

Lei Yu frowned thinking of this possibility, and of course became entangled in his heart, maybe it was a wrong decision not to kill this little monster.Thinking of this, Lei Yu carried Ah Zi back to the room, rescued the poor baby bird from under the claws of the little monster, touched the flightless bird, and found that the wound on its body was caused by grief being scraped out. A slight trace of it, fortunately not serious.

The chick was unusually quiet, and it didn't chirp incessantly. It just struggled a couple of times when it was held by Lei Yu, and then stopped moving. Only its small eyes still gurgled and turned.

Lei Yu couldn't guess the breed of the chick, it only had thin light gray fluff on its body.Maybe it was a sparrow, thinking so Lei Yu dug out the gauze and wound medicine, sterilized the bird briefly, then cut the gauze into strips and wrapped it up.

Lei Yu didn't dare to use human medicine on the chick, he wasn't sure what unwanted side effects it would bring to it, so he had to make do with it first, and the wound didn't look deep, so he probably could heal on his own. It wasn't the wings that hurt.

Ah Zi has been watching from the side, rolling back and forth on the table from time to time, and then scratching the table with his paws, he seems to be very interested in the chicks, and always stretches out his paws to demonstrate to the birds, but this little bird He didn't buy it, and lay quietly on his stomach, letting Lei Yu wrap it in gauze.In the end, Lei Yu went around the room twice, took out a waste paper box, stuffed it with rags and dry towels, and made a simple nest for the chicks.

"If you grow feathers, you can fly by yourself." Lei Yu put the chick in and stroked its head.

"Wow——" Ah Zi seemed to be jealous, it seemed that Lei Yu had never made a nest for him, so naturally he jumped up and down in dissatisfaction, and even jumped into the new nest of the chicks, trying to get the birds Squeeze out.

"Stupid Ah Zi." Lei Yu grabbed Ah Zi by the tail and lifted him up: "Your nest is in my arms."

Perhaps one day, Ah Zi will say the same to Lei Yu.

"You are not allowed to run around in the future, do you understand?" Regardless of whether Ah Zi could understand or not, Lei Yu began to reprimand him, "You must appear in my sight all the time, and you must not leave for a moment!"

"Wow——" Ah Zi seemed to agree, but Lei Yu couldn't understand what he said, and Lei Yu had no choice but to say, "If only you could talk, it would be like——by the way, like the one I met before. Like a monster in human form."

"Ouch-"

"Why don't I... I'll teach you how to speak?" Lei Yu had a whim, put Azi on the table, and said to him, "Come, call me by my name: Lei Yu—"

"Aww——" Ah Zi opened her mouth and drew out the final sound.

Lei Yu rubbed his temples with a headache, maybe talking is too difficult for Ah Zi.

"Otherwise, just call it one word: Yu—"

"Yu—!" Ah Zi opened her mouth obediently, staring at Lei Yu with her big beautiful eyes, and flicking her tail behind her back non-stop.
