Dream Pet Shop

Xia Ji has never seen such a special-looking black cat. He even thinks that the black cat's fur can shine in the moonlight, and the pair of golden eyes are very beautiful. They all look noble and glamorous, domineering sideways.

Xia Ji saw that the window on the first floor was open. The cat undoubtedly came in through the window, but Xia Ji remembered that he closed it before going to bed. Could this cat know how to open the window?Never mind, Xia Ji, a hungry cat slave, just wants to masturbate when he sees a cat, and doesn't think about too many details at all.

While approaching the black cat with a strong nasal voice, he stretched out his hand cautiously: "Little cat, why did you come in? Are you looking for something to eat?"

The black cat stood there and looked at Xia Ji, its golden pupils narrowed into a slit, slightly displeased.Xia Ji didn't dare to forcibly stroke the cat, so he withdrew his hand and said, "Wait for me," before thumping and rummaging in the cabinet.

The black cat's ears trembled, and it stood there staring at Xia Ji's movements.Xia Ji didn't turn on the light, fearing to alarm the pets, he frantically searched for cat food bowls and cat food in the cabinet, bumping his knees and head on the cabinet, so excited that he even forgot the pain.

Human eyesight is very weak at night, but to cats, everything is the same as during the day, so every move of Xia Ji is seen by the black cat, who lowers his head like a human sighing.

Xia Ji ran back with a basin full of cat food, and put the cat food in front of the black cat as if flattering him.

The black cat proudly stretched out its front paws and pushed the cat food aside.

Xia Ji was not surprised at all. As a person who has been sucking cats for many years, he certainly knows that some wild cats are very vigilant and will never eat when someone is in front of them.So Xia Ji put the cat food out of the window sill again, and said, "Go and eat by yourself later. Then... can I pet you?"

The cat slave Xiaji stretched out his hand carefully again. If he had a mirror to look at him at this time, he would probably find that his idiotic expression was enough to scare away any cat owner.

However, the black cat didn't have any expression of fear on its face, it was just full of arrogance and disdain, as if saying: You two-legged beast doesn't deserve to touch me at all!Even when Xia Ji's hand was about to touch him, he gritted his teeth and made a warning sound of "snoring".

But the more arrogant and arrogant, the more unable to resist this charm, Xia Ji, the cat-shaking slave, was determined to be scratched at the worst, and continued to move forward...

I got it!

Although the black cat was very reluctant, it just flicked its tail impatiently and didn't really scratch Xia Ji.This... feels so soft and smooth, almost like water, the cat slave Xia Ji was so moved that he couldn't speak, his nose was blocked, so he opened his mouth and inhaled straight.

The black cat observed him for a while, then suddenly stretched out its tongue and licked his finger, just lightly and quickly skipping over the fingertips.

Before Xia Ji could be happy, he suddenly felt an itchy nose, tilted his head and sneezed.After the sneeze, Xia Ji's nose cleared, his breathing was smooth, his head didn't hurt anymore, and he felt refreshed.

This is amazing.

Xia Ji hurriedly turned around and continued to pet the cat, only to find that the black cat had long since disappeared, leaving only a basin full of cat food on the window sill.

Xia Ji's cold suddenly healed overnight, and the next day he was refreshed and revived with full blood.Coincidentally, not long after he opened the shop in the morning, a customer came.

"Let me make sure, you mean you want to adopt the little parrot in our store, right?" Xia Ji asked uncertainly looking at the man in suit and leather shoes in front of him.

"Yes." The man nodded quite positively.

Xia Ji looked at the man in front of him. He was dressed in a dark gray suit, his hair was combed meticulously, and he was wearing elegant gold-rimmed glasses. His complexion was a bit sallow. He was a typical sub-healthy businessman.Would such a serious and busy person really like a talking parrot?

"Sorry, don't take offense if I ask one more question, how did you know that there are parrots waiting for adoption in this store?"

"Ah, I forgot to mention. Actually, I came here for my daughter. She came home and told her that she wanted to adopt a parrot here." The man took out his mobile phone and showed Xia Ji the picture on the screen saver. "This is My daughter, she should have been here recently."

Xia Ji recognized at a glance that it was the girl who came every day for the past few days. To be honest, Xia Ji was a little surprised, he didn't expect that girl would really adopt this parrot.But finally, an adopter appeared, and the adopter's economic conditions and personality seemed to be quite good, so Xia Ji had no reason to refuse.

"Okay, I see. Sir, please show your ID card and fill out this form." Xia Ji handed him the adoption registration form.

"Do you still need an ID card?" The man lowered his head and rummaged in his briefcase. The adoption procedures were obviously more complicated than he imagined, but he didn't bother, found out the ID card and handed it to Xia Ji, and then took it from Xia Ji's hand. The form stood at the front desk and filled out carefully.

Xia Ji took a photo of his ID card for backup, and while the man was filling out the form, he asked him some precautions for keeping pets. "You can leave an email address, I have some electronic information about raising parrots, and I can send them to you."

Just as he was speaking well, the man who had been filling out the form with his head down suddenly fell down. Xia Ji was startled, rushed over to help him up, and asked worriedly, "Sir, are you alright?"

The man's lips were pale, and after Xia Ji helped him to sit on the chair, he kept pressing his hand on his forehead, and after a long time he said, "Sorry, I have been suffering from hypoglycemia, and I came out in a hurry in the morning, and I forgot to eat breakfast. "

Xia Ji looked at him, remembering that he often forgot to eat when he was working overtime in the past, he felt the same way, and sympathized with him.He hurried upstairs and brought down a carton of milk and a bag of biscuits for him.

The man took the milk and drank it, and his lips slowly turned some color. He looked at Xia Ji gratefully and said thank you. He wanted to pay for Xia Ji's milk, but Xia Ji hurriedly said no.The man said, let's buy some pet supplies at Xiaji's shop.

Xia Ji rummaged around in the store, but found no pet supplies, so after thinking about it, let the man take it away with the cage and bird food.

As a result, the man filled out the form, answered the phone, and said that he had something to do in a while, and it was not convenient to take it back today, and he would come back to pick up the bird in a few days.

Xia Ji couldn't help asking: "Why didn't your daughter come with you today?"

"She and her mother are busy packing things at home, because we are going to move to Xiamen City this weekend." The man explained.

Xia Ji was very surprised: "Is it convenient to adopt a pet before moving? Most people will adopt a pet after they get to their new home."

The man smiled helplessly: "Actually, I think so too, but my daughter seldom asks me for anything, and it's rare for her to take the initiative to tell me. I just want to satisfy her wish as much as possible."

"Did your daughter tell you personally?"

"..." The man suddenly raised his head and glanced at Xia Ji.

Xia Ji knew he had made a slip of the tongue, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry."

The man shook his head, "You don't have to apologize." His expression was a little helpless, "Actually, I should thank you. Although you can see that she is different from normal children, you are still willing to let her stay in the store....My daughter is not dumb, It’s just that she suddenly stopped talking and refused to go to school. The doctor said it was a psychological problem, and her mother and I were helpless.”

After hearing this, Xia Ji didn't know what to say, but felt that it was a pity.

The man left, Xia Ji felt a little depressed.He is a little hesitant to let the family adopt a parrot now. On the one hand, the family will move, and he is worried that the parrot will not be taken care of; on the other hand, he hopes that the parrot can bring joy to the little girl and help her Open your heart.

Xia Ji sprinkled some bird food on the table, the little parrot was jumping up and down to eat, Xia Ji stretched out his fingers and touched the feathers on its head, the little parrot looked up at him, and was about to speak again.

Xia Ji hurriedly squeezed its small mouth gently: "Shh! Don't talk, as long as you don't talk, you are still a good parrot." Xia Ji duplicity, after so many days, he was actually a little bit reluctant.

Three days later, the man came to take the parrot as promised, but this time the little girl still didn't come.

Xia Ji packed everything the parrot needed and handed it over to the man. Finally, he solemnly handed over the bird cage to the man, waved to the little parrot in the cage, and said, "Goodbye."

The little parrot fluttered its wings in the cage, as if to respond to him.

The man was in a hurry to leave, but Xia Ji stopped him at the door of the shop.

"In case... one day you and your family don't want to keep it anymore, please don't throw it away or release it at will, please send it back here, please." Xia Ji handed the hastily written note to Man, with the address of Dream Pet Store and his phone number written on it.

The man glanced at Xia Ji, nodded, took the note, put it in his pocket, and drove away.

Seeing the car go away, Xia Ji suddenly felt empty, like an old father who married his son.

That night, Xia Ji decided to have a big meal to soothe his slightly injured heart.His former colleagues were busy working overtime, so he had to eat hot pot by himself.

Back at the pet shop, after taking a shower, before going upstairs to sleep, Xia Ji put a basin of cat food outside the window sill on the first floor as usual. Prepare a bowl of cat food every night.

But since that night, the black cat has never appeared again, and the cat food in the basin remains intact every morning.But Xia Ji still didn't give up, and always felt that it would come again.

Xia Ji was just about to go upstairs to sleep, when suddenly the sound of the system rang in his ears.

[Ding——Congratulations to the host for completing the pet adoption task for the first time. The system now rewards a rare pet egg, please collect it from the host. 】

Only then did Xia Ji realize that every time a pet is found with an owner, the system will reward it!Xia Ji rubbed his hands like a fly, oh well~ Is welfare finally coming? !As soon as the system interface appeared in front of him, he couldn't wait to click "Receive Reward".

"Puff——" There was a sound from the upstairs bedroom, and Xia Ji thought it must be his pet egg!

Xia Ji ran upstairs, pushed open the door, and saw an egg lying among the quilts on the bed!He immediately threw off his slippers, climbed onto the bed, and lay down on the bed to observe the egg up close.

This egg is as big as two ostrich eggs!The appearance is similar to ordinary eggs, smooth and white, very cute to look at.Xia Ji touched it carefully, and found that the egg was still warm. He immediately widened his eyes, as if he had touched the life in the egg.

"Xiao Chong, when will this egg hatch into a pet? Ahhhhhhh, I can't wait to see it!" Xia Ji rolled on the bed happily.

[In the absence of an accelerator, it takes 96 hours for a rare-grade pet egg to hatch. During this period, the pet egg needs to be kept at a temperature close to that of the human body, so... it is recommended that the host sleep with it. 】

"?"What?Sleeping with eggs?If Xia Ji doesn't leave and stays in a daze, won't he become an old hen hatching eggs. "Xiao Chong, what is the accelerator you just mentioned?"

[Accelerators can instantly hatch pet eggs, one is worth 188 dreams, and four are needed to hatch rare pet eggs.Hosts can be purchased in the system. 】

"Then buy it, how much dream value do I have now?" Xia Ji asked.

[The system displays, available dream value: 0]

"Didn't it mean that the happiness of pets and owners will be converted into dream values? Couldn't it be that the system data is delayed?" Xia Ji wondered.

[This system comes from a high-level world. It is not comparable to any system on earth, and there is no problem of delay. 】

Now Xia Ji is worried. The pet has been taken away, but the dream value has not changed. It must be something happened.Forget it, call tomorrow morning and ask.

Since he had no money to buy accelerators, Xia Ji had no choice but to sleep with the egg in his arms.

He first lay down in the quilt by himself, and then held the pet egg in his arms, as if holding a child.

Holding the warm pet eggs, I always feel extremely relaxed, and Xia Ji soon felt drowsy.

Before closing his eyes, Xia Ji suddenly heard a "plop", which seemed to come from the egg.He hugged the egg into his arms, feeling that the 26-year-old himself inspired all the father's love at this moment.

"Good night, baby."

The author has something to say: Xia Ji: I am so happy to sleep with Little Goldfinger in my arms!whee!
