Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Berlin, Germany. Tegel International Airport.
Zhang Zian was not able to get a good rest due to the long flight and the time spent transferring flights, so his mind was muddled.
Seated in the economy class next to Zhang Zian was an obese white man, weighing at least 150 kilograms. Putting aside his pungent body odor, his snores could shake the heavens. It was so loud and noisy that Zian couldn't get any proper rest. Zian had felt the strongest urge to call Richard out. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth meant releasing the bird poo offense…
After all the trouble, Zian finally got off the plane. He pulled himself together and completed the procedure for Famous's consignment in English, which he was not all that familiar with.
Famous's mental condition was not at its best. It seemed like the experience in the animal cargo hold was not that pleasant, either.
”Famous, how was it? Are you hungry?” Zian asked while putting on its leash.
Famous went without food for close to a day and a half, only drinking some water in between.
Famous, who was in a bad mood, shook his head. ”I'm okay. There was a period of time when I was very hungry, so hungry that I couldn't fall asleep, but right now I'm not that hungry anymore.
Zhang Zian felt a deep sympathy for it. Looking at the bustling crowd around them, he asked, ”Should we get something to fill your stomach? Not sure if the airport here has hot dogs for sale or something…”
The moment hot dogs were mentioned, Famous's belly started rumbling. Famous licked its lips. ”Let's get one, then.”
Zhang Zian took out some money to get the hot dog for Famous. Zian had eaten the meal prepared by the airline earlier and was not hungry at the moment.
While Famous was digging into its hot dog, Zian switched on his phone with the intention to take a picture of the Tegel International Airport. He wanted to post it on his WeChat moments to show off a little, especially since he was in Germany. Can't let Zhao Qi, who had taken selfies of herself while she was overseas during the new year, get too smug…
Zian received a message on his phone the moment it connected with the airport's WiFi. The message was from Lu Yiyun and he opened it.
Lu Yiyun said, ”Sorry Mister Store Manager, but the Holy Cat statue in the store is missing…”
Zhang Zian was dumbfounded for a moment. The Holy Cat statue is missing? What does that mean?
After some probing, Lu Yiyun briefly explained what happened. She mentioned that the statue was still in its original position when she left the night before, but when she arrived for work this morning, the statue had disappeared. There were no signs of a break in and the money in the cashier drawers was still there.
After she explained what happened, Lu Yiyun asked if she should notify the police.
Zhang Zian's head, which was already muddled, started to throb in pain. Why, of all times, must something happen just as he leaves?
Zian had no time to care about the Holy Cat statue. He quickly sent Pi a message, ”Pi, are you awake yet? Did anything happen last night?”
Soon enough, Pi sent a reply back. ”Just woke up, working on the novel right now. Everything is all right.”
Zian then asked, ”Did a thief break into the house?”
Pi replied, ”Nope. If a thief entered the house, Zhan Tian would bark, right?”
Well, that was right. Pi's point threw light on the matter.
The Holy Cat statue was placed on the first floor and Zhan Tian, too, spent its nights sleeping on the first floor.
Unlike Golden Retrievers or Huskies that can not differentiate friend and foe, as the previous ace of the police dog squad, Zhan Tian was very vigilant and had a very high combat ability. If a thief had really broken into the house, Zhan Tian would not have left him alone. Zhan Tian would take him on, even at the cost of its life. Even if one or two knife-wielding thugs were to take on Zhan Tian, they still wouldn't stand a chance.
