“It doesn’t matter. Those small fish aren’t worth much. I can buy a lot of them at the aquarium for a few hundred yuan.”
Then, Li Manman took out a bag of dried fish from Chu Ying’s bag.
“Now that Little Ze has grown so big, he must eat a lot of food a day.”
As she spoke, she began to throw the dried fish into the fish tank.
Chu Ze was a little speechless when he saw these dried fish.
“Isn’t this the same dried fish that I used to feed my cats?”
Although he said this, his actions were still very fast. He did not wait for the dried fish to sink before he directly rushed over and caught the dried fish.
“Mmm, it smells so good. It still tastes the same.”

[ Devoured small dried fish, gain + 3 evolution points. ]
These small dried fish were all close to 10 centimeters each. They were about the same size as the dried fish used to feed cats, and they also had more evolution points than fish food.
“Hahaha, look at Little Ze. He’s so fast. He’s really a foodie.”
Chu Ze rolled his eyes in the fish tank. “I was wondering how they threw them one after another. It seems like you two are playing with me.”
“Little Ying, do you think this koi has brother Chu’s secret?”
Chu Ying shook her head. “I don’t know either. It’s just that brother has become quite mysterious these past few years. A lot of times, he’s alone in the room staring at the computer. As soon as I enter, I can only see the computer desktop.”
Li Manman thought for a moment and said, “Could it be that Brother Chu is studying something?”
As she said this, she subconsciously glanced at her computer.
Inside the fish tank, Chu Ze suddenly became nervous.
“Don’t go through my computer. If you see it, I’ll really die.”
“Manman, look. Little Ze is spitting bubbles again. He must not have eaten his fill. Feed him some dried fish.”
The two girls began to play with the fish again.
Although he was in urgent need of evolution points, and the taste of the dried fish was very tempting, Chu Ze was no longer in the mood to eat the dried fish.
He was now thinking about how to get rid of the things in his computer.
After playing for a while, the two found that Chu Ze was no longer as enthusiastic as before. He would not chase after the dried fish anymore.
“I’m afraid that Little Ze is almost done eating. We’ll feed him again in a while.”
“Okay. It’s not good to feed him too much at once.”
Li Manman looked at her computer and said, “Little Ying, do you think Brother Chu has joined some mysterious organization?”
“I don’t know. Usually, brother goes to school and then goes home to play on his computer. He spends most of his time with me.”
“My brother doesn’t usually go out. You know that. My brother doesn’t have many friends. Anyway, you’re the only one I know.”
Li Manman blushed when she heard that. “Then, Brother Chu is usually alone in his room. Could he be studying mutated creatures?”
“I’ve often seen news about mutated creatures in the past few years. Brother Chu has always been interested in these strange things since he was young. Maybe he would really study them.”
Chu Ze, who was in the fish tank, was speechless. “It’s just that I can’t talk right now. Otherwise, I wouldn’t let you two make wild guesses here.”
“I want to study mutated creatures, but I don’t have the money. A random mutated fish costs several thousand. How can I afford it?”
In fact, Chu Ze really wanted to study mutated creatures in the past, but he didn’t do it because he didn’t have enough money.
“Little Ying, it’s better to get ready. We’ll officially start school tomorrow. For the time being, I’ll keep Little Ze here.”
“If this fish tank can’t hold it anymore, we’ll think of a way then.”
Chu Ying nodded. “Okay, then I’ll go home and tidy up first. I still have two more books to buy.”
In the next few days, the two of them fed Chu Ze less, which made Chu Ze extremely resentful.
