Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Famous just woke up. Its head was still sleepy and could not tell imagination from reality very well. It didn't realize that Pi was so gullible to fall right into the trap and hit its head. Famous became anxious and shouted, ”Hey! Stop hiding, the two of you! Pi just hit its head!”

It called out twice loudly, but nobody responded. Famous was speechless. It guessed that maybe Zhang Zian thought it was trying to trick him out.

”Hey! I surrender, OK? Stop hiding!”

It called again, but still no answer.

This is forcing me to use my ultimate skill... Famous had no other choice. It sniffed hard, and inhaled the scent in the air into its nostrils. The scent flew over the 2 billion olfactory cells in the nasal mucosa, forming a scent map in the room. Scents from different sources had different colors and their paths crossed with one another. It was complicated, but not chaotic.

Its scent tracking ability outdoors was not as good as the professionally trained Zhan Tian. But searching for someone indoors was a piece of cake.

”Wait a minute, Pi, I'll look for that idiot.”

Famous comforted the whimpering Pi, then followed the scent map out of the living room, into the kitchen upstairs.

Kitchen?

Famous doubted its own nose. The kitchen was small and too open for anyone to hide in but Zhang Zian's fresh scent did lead it near there.

Did Zhang Zian come here, leave a trace on purpose, then get out? No way. First of all, that dude was not that smart. Secondly, he could not have done this, as his scent entered the kitchen without exiting it. Unless he was able to eliminate his own scent in an instant, he must still be inside the kitchen.

Famous searched the garbage first. It didn't understand why garbage first, but its gut feeling told itself that it was a good match with Zhang Zian. A human being could not possibly hide in a tiny garbage bin, even if Zhang Zian tore himself into pieces.

Famous finished searching the garbage, then opened the cabinets one by one. There were all kinds of food in the cabinet, such as rice, flour and oil. A living human being would not fit into any of them.

That was weird. It lifted its head and stared at the exhaust hood. Did Zhang Zian squeeze into the hood and climb outside along the chimney? Was he Santa Claus? Famous shook its head. Maybe it caught a cold and the nose was not fully functional. It should search somewhere else. It turned around to leave, and stopped in front of the fridge. Although Zhang Zian would not have hidden here even if his head was kicked by a donkey, it opened the fridge anyway.

As soon as the fridge door opened, Zhang Zian's face almost turned blue in the cold. He sniffed and rebuked unwillingly. ”Famous, you are cheating. You agreed not to sniff! You found by sniffing, didn't you?”

Famous was completely speechless. How far could you go to play hide-and-seek? In other words, Zhang Zian's passion and level in the hide-and-seek game was already beyond its level of comprehension...

The glass separators in the fridge were removed by Zhang Zian ahead of time. The fresh vegetables and fruits needing refrigeration were moved to the rooftop, in the name of ”saving power”. He spent so much time emptying the fridge, just to play hide-and-seek?

Famous asked seriously, ”If I didn't find you, were you planning to hide in the fridge forever?”

”Of course!” Zhang Zian answered with equal seriousness. ”This is a game of dignity!”

”You are playing a game with your whole life...” Famous felt that he should no longer be called a human. Maybe one day he would turn into an elfin too.

”Don't think so much. Just admit it, you found me by sniffing, didn't you.... Ah choo!” Zhang Zian sneezed loudly.

Famous hid on the side, secretly complaining about why its ”crisis prediction ability” did not work in time.

Instead of answering, it asked, ”I was calling you just now, didn't you hear me?”

”I heard it. But I know you were tricking me, so I'm not falling for that!” Zhang Zian was filled with mysterious confidence, and his nose was running...
