”Gong!”
”Gong!”
After returning to the store, Zhang Zian found Wang Qian and Li Kun slacking at work, and firing Kamehameha at each other with mops and brooms. He reminded them, ”I'm going upstairs first. Don't forget to bring the Red Sandalwood inside.”
”Yes, Master! Gong!”
”Damn! Master, he sneak attacks me! Gong! Gong!”
They were fighting like two kids who would never grow up.
Speechless, Zhang Zian shook his head. He almost wanted to say that he didn't know these two guys. Despite that he just had an ”adolescent delusional disorder” episode just then, he did it only once a year to celebrate his single years.
Lu Yiyun was cleaning up near the cashier, wiping down the shelves with wet clothes and wearing rubber gloves.
Little Celery was standing next to the display cabinet, as she whispered constantly to Lop-Eared Rabbit and the hamsters.
Zhang Zian looked around and didn't notice anything wrong. He turned back to the bedroom on the second floor.
”What are you doing, making such a noise at this hour in the morning?” Fina yawned in its princess bed, and stared at him with a long face.
”Getting some exercise.” Zhang Zian lied calmly. ”I've been practicing Qi-Gong with Old Time Tea lately. I occasionally miss the good old, broadcast gymnastics.”
”I didn't hear any music, just sounds of 'gong, gong gong'.” Fina ruthlessly exposed his lies.
”Your Majesty! In my humble opinion, if certain males are not castrated in time, they make noises like that.” Snowy Lionet extended its sharp claws and scratched the air.
Although it made sense, Zhang Zian still felt an imaginary pain in his balls. ”Gong” and ”male” had the same pronunciations but they were not the same words.
Galaxy passed by while chasing after American Short Hair. Zhang Zian suddenly understood something when he saw it: Galaxy didn't want to see the pet shop being destroyed by Kamehameha, therefore it chose the alternate reality in which it was unable to use Kamehameha. Yes, this must have been the truth.
He finally looked at Molecular Monkey Pi in the corner. It woke up early, but didn't move in its corner. It was holding the crimson nameless book in its arms, looking at everybody and everything in the room, then it opened up the crimson nameless book and started reading. After it lifted his head again, its eyes seemed somehow different...
Whether if it was an illusion or not, he always felt that when Pi first saw the other elfin, its eyes were distant and aloof. But after reading the nameless book for a while, its eyes became relaxed and the guard was off, as if it knew them well enough, that they weren't bad and wouldn't hurt it.
Zhang Zian grew more curious about the nameless book. But he knew that he had not earned enough trust from Pi yet, and Pi might not let him read its most treasured nameless book. Therefore, he didn't ask Pi. He thought about pretending to be passing by and taking a sneak peek into the book. But Pi was always hiding in a corner. He never had a chance to do so.
Pi slept in a single chair in the bedroom last night. Zhang Zian put a blanket on the chair, but even so, it was still hard to sleep on. There were no extra beds in the bedroom, and the other room was cold, but Pi didn't complain. It obediently slept where Zhang Zian asked it to sleep.
Zhang Zian had noticed since yesterday that Pi seemed to be an imaginative elfin, as it didn't eat and didn't seem hungry. Although it was an imaginative elfin, it took the form of a monkey and kept some behaviors of a monkey. For instance, it was not used to sleeping in beds or on the floor, and loved climbing and scratching its head, etc.
