While Famous was lost in thought, it heard the rustling sound of the grass being trampled on. It looked up and found that the Dragon Li had turned around and was about to leave the mountaintop in the opposite direction. Famous jumped from the bush and said, ”Old Time Tea, wait a minute! ”
The Dragon Li turned back in astonishment, revealing its sharp claws instantaneously and going into a defensive stance. It asked cautiously, ”I've heard many people learn to bark, but I've never heard any animal speak the language of humans. What kind of demon are you?”
”Aren't you talking like a human too? Did you know that you just cursed yourself in that sentence?” asked Famous helplessly.
”What?” It was not until this moment that the Dragon Li realized that it was speaking the language of humans. ”This … why?”
”Old Time Tea, forget about the trivialities.” Famous walked over. ”Where are we?”
The Dragon Li still had its guard up. It asked with puzzlement, ”Do you know me?”
”Of course, we lied together on a windowsill not too long ago.” Famous waved its tail to bat the mosquitoes away. It urged Old Time Tea, ”Let's get out of here, the mosquitos have almost drained my blood. I wonder how you can even remember mosquitoes so clearly.”
”No, first, how do you know me?” The Dragon Li retreated a few steps. It really thought Famous was some kind of demon.
Famous sighed, ”Long story. Can we go somewhere else? In addition, it's really awkward when you don't call yourself 'old.'”
”Old? I'm in my prime, why would I want to make myself older?” The Dragon Li was more puzzled.
Famous had spent time with Galaxy in the black box. But unlike Galaxy, Old Time Tea was not that gullible, and Famous was not good at lying. After thinking for a moment, Famous decided to tell the truth in order to win Old Time Tea's trust.
”Old Time Tea, my name is Famous. I am not a demon. I'm from the future, and for some reason, I've entered a memory of yours. Do you understand?” Famous explained.
”The future?” Old Time Tea's whisker lifted upward. ”Boy, do you think I'm ignorant?”
Famous had never seen Old Time Tea so angry before, but it's heard that Old Time Tea could be very intimidating. So, it quickly said, ”No, Old Time Tea, listen to me. In the future, the peace and prosperity that you wish for has become true, to some extent. A war hasn't broken out in many years.”
Obviously, Famous made the right choice. It lowered its paws and stared at Famous suspiciously. ”Is what you said true?”
”Of course.” Oh, how Famous wished it could have watched the news more frequently with Old Time Tea so that its words could be more convincing. Luckily, it was aware of some historical events. ”This period of this country being divided up by warlords and foreign invaders will end in a few decades. When that time comes, the reunification of China will occur. Even Hong Kong, the place that person is heading, will become a part of this country again.”
”Nonsense. Do you have any evidence? If you don't, then you leave me no choice!” Old Time Tea did not trust words easily.
Evidence...
Famous tried to think of something that could be used as evidence.
”Yes. The white cat just now. You don't know what type of cat that is, right?” Famous asked with confidence.
”I don't. Do you?” Old Time Tea asked.
”I do because someone told you and me that the cat was a Chinese lop-eared cat, whose English name is Sumxu,” said Famous. It lowered its head and indicated Old Time Tea to look at its neck. ”Look at this nameplate. It's written with the name of the Amazing Fate Pet Shop, which is our home in the future.”
