Chapter 122 (1/2)
”But the question is, who among us can do this?” The crow went on: ”people who can hold on and open the music box even if everyone around them is asleep.”
In fact, if you don't test this kind of thing, no one knows where his limit is. When he figured out this * *, the crow proposed: ”otherwise, let's test it first. When I close the music box Who is the first of us to fall asleep
Several people agreed one after another, so they all sat around the sofa seat beside the music box. The crow reached out and closed the box. The melodious violin music stopped suddenly. All of them could clearly feel the sweet and greasy smell in the air. It was very sweet, like the fragrance of flowers and bee honey, which made people feel drowsy.
”It's so sweet and disgusting.” The wolf spoke, trying to draw attention. ”We'd better talk more and concentrate,” he said
”That's too bad. What if I don't want to talk to you?” The owl looks down upon the wolf without expression.
”In fact, I think you should be the least likely of us to fall down --” the wolf answered the owl, looking up and down: ”because you can't smell it!”
”You're not me. How do you know I can't smell? Of course, I know you must have a good sense of smell, just like a dog
”Are you mocking me for being a dog?”
”How could it be?! I just praised your sense of smell and said that you are a dog - it is clearly your own unilateral admission! ”
Wolf and owl one by one, you come and I go to start fighting, crows and black cats as always silent, in this seemingly harmonious atmosphere, time passes by, about ten minutes or so, the first person to fall appears.
The black cat has been sitting beside the crow. He feels that the person next to him suddenly pauses. When he leans on his shoulder, the black cat looks down at the crow.
Crow is a very gentle young man. His eyes can be seen that he is a gentle and tough man. He closed his eyes and leaned against the black cat. His black hair was soft and fell on the black cat's shoulder. The black cat's breath was very short. He could not help but touch the crow's cheek, but soon realized that his action was not natural, so he turned his head to owls and others ”He's asleep,” he said
The owl reached out and opened the music box. Within half a minute, the crow opened his eyes again. He was at a loss for a moment, but soon he woke up and said, ”am I asleep?”
”Yes.” ”You're not in a good state of mind,” the owl worried
”Probably...” The crow sighed and continued, ”it's not very good. I didn't realize I was asleep. I always thought I was awake, just like a dream.”
”What should I do now?” Said the owl uneasily.
”I was the first one to fall down, so I can rule it out. I don't have to be the guy who switches music for everyone. Now we can test the second person who fell By the way, if I fall asleep, you try to wake me up - for example, shaking me hard. It is said that sleeping humans wake up by conditioned reflex when they fall back Of course, if these methods don't wake me up all the time, open the music box
The owl was more worried and said, ”but it's dangerous! What if you can't wake up with the music box open? ”
The crow finally laughed and said, ”let me die here.”
”This joke is not funny!”
”It's worth a try.” Crow said, he looked very tired: ”I have no other way, can't continue to stay here to waste time. To tell you the truth, I've had enough of this train! ”
There was no choice. Even though the owl was very reluctant, it finally agreed. They turned off the music box again. Soon after, the crow fell asleep again. The owl motioned to the black cat sitting next to the crow: ”wake him up.”
The black cat takes the crow and drags him to the edge of the sofa seat and makes him face up and backward. This method is really effective. The crow is awakened at the moment when he falls down, and then is picked up by the black cat in his arms, but the crow's face is a little pale.
”How long did I sleep?” Asked the crow.
”Not a minute.” The black cat answered him.
”It feels like a century has passed.” The crow grinned bitterly. He sat up straight and said to the crowd, ”it seems that it works. Even if one of us is asleep, the people next to us can wake him up.”
But as the crow spoke, he suddenly closed his eyes and fell on the sofa again. Seeing this, the owl sighed with regret: ”if you wake up, you won't last long.”
The owl had just finished saying this, but what he didn't expect was that the wolf sitting next to him suddenly fell forward and fell asleep on the table.
