A vibrant female voice came, and Su Ping turned around and saw a girl wearing a pink dress and a lily-colored pointed hat, standing in front of the dragon sculpture next to the store door, bending over and looking pretty. The person's face was full of curiosity.
In the shadow between the sharp claws of the dragon sculpture, hiding a fleshy figure, it was the Thunder Rat.
It is a purple cat, and although it is said to be a mouse, it is actually about the same size as an ordinary house cat, and because it has been lying here without exercising, its figure has become increasingly rounded.
Hearing the sound, Lei Guangshu opened his eyes from his deep sleep. When he saw the figure of the girl above her head blocking the sun, he closed his eyes again and was too lazy to respond.
During the days when Su Ping opened the store, some customers would often notice this fat little rat lying under the dragon sculpture, and some would feed it something, but they would all be dismissed and looked down upon by it.
"Whose little mouse is it? Doesn't it have an owner?"
The girl looked around and saw no one paying attention here, but soon she found Su Ping staring. She asked curiously: "Sir, is this your pet beast?"
"It is currently ownerless." Su Ping shook his head.
Lei Guangshu has been lying here for a long time. Ever since Su Yanying died in the battle of Blue Star, he has been in a state of despair and has been lying here waiting every day.
Su Ping could more or less understand what it was waiting for.
But some things that have passed can never come back.
"Masterless?" The girl was stunned, her eyes slightly brightened, "Is it true?"
She was a little overjoyed. She lowered her head to look at the Lightning Rat huddled in the shadows, and immediately bent down to pick it up.
"Xiao Xin, no, this mouse is so dirty. Be careful of any unknown germs!" Another girl next to him who was more fashionably dressed quickly stopped him. The two seemed to be best friends.
"It's okay. It's so cute. Take it home and wash it and it will be clean. If there is really any germs, go to the pet clinic and check it out. What if it gets sick?"
Yu Xin smiled and reached out to hug Lei Guangshu, but did not listen to her best friend's dissuasion.
But at this moment, the Lei Guangshu suddenly opened its eyes, and a gleam of cold light passed by. It suddenly stretched out its sharp claws and struck at the outstretched snow-white hands, with a hint of silver at the tips of its claws.
"careful!"
The girl next to him screamed in surprise, and a dark brown spotted dog beast held by the girl's hand roared suddenly, rushed out with a lunge, and bit the sharp claws of the Lei Guangshu.
The Lei Guangshu's body suddenly jumped and dodged, and actually stepped on the dog beast's back, leaving deep scars on both sides of its back with its claws.
"Poodle!"
The girl screamed, suddenly feeling distressed and angry, "You actually hurt my lion fighting dog, damn it, four-winged flame dragon beast, teach it a lesson!"
With a roar, a four-winged dragon beast bathed in flames, seven or eight meters tall, landed on the ground outside the store. Its two-story height brought a strong sense of oppression.
The Lei Guangshu's eyes changed, and his body lay on the ground, like a feline creature entering a fighting state, its muscles tense, like a full bow ready to go, ready to explode at any time.
However, its round body makes its fighting posture somewhat less lethal, but rather cute.
"Don't!"
Yu Xin's figure immediately rushed out, blocking the four-winged flame dragon beast, and said to her friend beside her: "Put your dragon beast away quickly, don't scare it."
"It just wanted to hurt you!" The girl friend was obviously angry and said: "If it hadn't been for my lion fighting dog, you would have been scratched now. Such a wild thing may have a lot of dirt and dirt on its claws. Well, if you are really infected with any germs, you will be in trouble!"
"My action just now was too rough. It was not intentional." Yu Xin said hurriedly.
The girl who was my friend almost vomited blood and said speechlessly: "What do you see in it? It's just a fat mouse. If you want it, I'll buy you the exact same one. I'm sure it will be better trained than it."
Yu Xin opened her mouth slightly. To be honest, she knew it was just a wild mouse, but for some reason, she felt like it when she saw it.
Especially the eyes of this little mouse.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that those tiny mouse eyes seemed to contain a lot of things.
There is also a feeling of... loneliness.
Will pet animals also be lonely
She didn't know, but she did feel it. Maybe she felt sympathy for each other. She didn't know why, but she just wanted to take the other person home and take good care of him and train him.
"Get out of the way, in case it attacks you again later." The girl friend said anxiously.
Yu Xin grabbed her arm and said: "No, let me try again. It is normal for such wild pets to be more ferocious. They want to survive. If they are not more ferocious, they will die. I can make it If you let down your guard, trust me.”
“…”
My best friend was so angry that she was speechless, but she had no choice but to let her go. At the same time, he kept his four-winged flame dragon beast on alert at all times. If this little thing dared to hurt anyone, he would be killed immediately.
It is ownerless anyway, and no one will hold it accountable even if it is beaten to death.
Yu Xin turned to look at the Lei Guangshu, but unexpectedly discovered that this little mouse did not tremble in fear when faced with a dragon-level species like the Four-Winged Flame Dragon Beast. Instead, it crawled back to its previous position, hiding in that small In the shadows.
It seemed like that was its nest.
Yu Xin couldn't help but flashing a flash of pity in her eyes. She slowly squatted down so that her head was at the same height as the other person, as if to maintain an equal posture to a certain extent. She took out some exquisite items from the storage space. The pet food, exuding an alluring fragrance, was placed in the palm of the hand and said softly: "I didn't mean to offend you, don't be afraid."
Lei Guangshu's nose moved slightly, he opened his eyes and looked at the pet food in the opponent's hand for a moment, then looked away.
Yu Xin slowly handed the pet food to it a few feet in front of it. When she saw that the other party did not attack her, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Are you willing to go back with me? I will give you a lot of delicious food. I will I’ll help you wash up, and I have many friends there who can play with you.”
The Lei Guangshu glanced at her, and then his eyes fell on the pet food. After staring for three seconds, there was a sudden flash of purple light, and with lightning speed, it picked up all the pet food on the ground and held it in his little paws. Nibble and eat.
Yu Xin and her best friend were stunned by the astonishing speed. When they saw the Lei Guangshu eating with gusto, Yu Xin couldn't help but laugh, took out some pet food again, and said: "Eat slowly, I still have some. "
With that said, he slowly handed the pet food over again, this time closer, as if he was slowly testing the other party's defensive distance.
Lei Guangshu obviously sensed the other party's thoughts, just glanced at it lightly, ignored it, and ate it very sweetly.
After eating it quickly, it continued to come over and eat again.
Yu Xin chuckled lightly, grabbed another large amount of pet food and handed it to it. After putting down the pet food this time, she gently stretched her bare hands towards the Lei Guangshu's plump body, wanting to caress and comfort it.
Generally, when a wild pet is willing to accept food from a stranger, it is usually a sign of friendliness and letting down its guard, so she dares to do this.
But at this moment, Lei Guangshu's eyes suddenly changed, and he bared his teeth slightly, showing a fierce intent. Yu Xin stopped quickly. The girl who was her friend next to her couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily: "I think it's better to kill these little beasts that you don't know how to raise!"
"I'll try again." Yu Xin quickly comforted her friend, still squatting in front of the Lei Guangshu, putting her hands on her knees, looking around curiously, and said: "Little guy, why are you lying here? Aren't you afraid of the mouse? There are so many people here, aren't you afraid that they will bully you?"
The Lei Guangshu's body returned to a relaxed state, and he continued to eat his pet food. He paid no attention to the words and didn't even bother to look at them.
After the pet food was finished, Yu Xin continued to take out some more.
My friend, a girl, couldn't stand it anymore and said, "It's so worthless to feed such a precious pet food to something like this. Even if you feed it to a dragon beast, I feel bad!"
Yu Xin waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I'll buy it after eating."
The Lei Guangshu will not refuse anyone who comes, and will eat it as soon as it is caught.
Yu Xin squatted and took small steps, trying to get closer. Seeing that the Lei Guangshu didn't respond, she got closer, and then slowly took out a small collar. This was a trapping ring, which could lock wild pet beasts into the pet space. She I plan to take it back, ask a breeder to help this little guy soften its viciousness, and then make a contract.
But just when she took out the animal trap, the Lei Guangshu suddenly seemed to notice something. It seemed to be irritated and rushed towards her. The cold light reflected on its claws was full of murderous intent.
This accident was extremely unexpected, and the lightning rat was so fast that Yu Xin had no time to prepare. The girl friend and the four-winged flame dragon beast next to her were also shocked.
But at this moment, a big hand suddenly stretched out and caught the lightning rat that jumped quickly and flashed its spines.
The fat back of the neck was lifted up, and the Thunder Rat's paws were waving in the air, seemingly indignantly.
"Little thing, it's rare to meet someone who likes you, so don't be disrespectful." Su Ping put the Lei Guangshu back on the ground, squatted down and said angrily.
Lei Guangshu looked up at him, looked into each other's eyes, and knew that he was someone he couldn't afford to offend. He turned around and retreated into the shadows angrily.
"The person you are waiting for will never come back. Don't miss other people. Do you want to lie here like this for the rest of your life?" Su Ping frowned. He felt that it was necessary for Lei Guangshu to accept the reality.
squeak! The Lei Guangshu's hair instantly exploded, and the purple hair on its body stood up, like a sharp hedgehog, with purple lightning flashing in its hair, as if it would go berserk and attack at any time.
Its eyes were red and it glared at Su Ping.
Su Ping also looked at it calmly. For a long time, the red light in the eyes of the Lei Guangshu gradually faded away, but at this time, a crystal teardrop fell from its narrow eyes, as if all the strength had been drained from its body, it exploded. Kai's hair also loosened up, and he turned around silently and lay down in the shadow again.
Su Ping sighed secretly, the Lei Guangshu was so affected that it would be difficult to come out.
However, he could also understand that the girl who first came to the door treated the Lei Guangshu very well.
The Lei Guangshu was tortured in his hands before it was cultivated to such a monster level, but in the hands of that girl, it was extremely happy, so the death of the other person made it so unforgettable.
Even if there is no contract and many memories of getting along have been erased, it still comes back here, maybe because it knows in its heart that there is something very important here, waiting for it.
But it didn't know that it was its former owner.
"Have a good rest." Su Ping touched the soft fur of the Lei Guangshu and sighed.
Lei Guangshu remained silent and did not respond.
Yu Xin and her friends and best friends were all surprised that this untouchable little guy was allowed to be touched by Su Ping.
"It seems a little different from ordinary little mice." Yu Xin couldn't help but said to Su Ping.
Su Ping nodded and said: "Its former owner has left, and it is waiting here, so it is more repellent to strangers and repelled to leave here."
Yu Xin was stunned, and suddenly understood why she felt that this little mouse had such lonely eyes.
It turns out that there are people waiting for it...
"If the master dies, won't the pet beast contract erase the pet's memory about the master? Why is it waiting here?" The girl friend next to her couldn't help but asked curiously.
Su Ping shook his head: "Although the memory has been erased, maybe there is something left behind, maybe... instinct."
The two women were startled and couldn't help but look at the little mouse.
The eyes of my friend's girl also changed, and she suddenly felt that this little mouse was no longer so hateful and dirty. How loyal a pet beast that could remember its previous owner with its body must have been...
"If you really want to accept it as a pet, give it a little more patience." Su Ping said to the gentle girl.
Yu Xin took a deep look at the Lei Guangshu, nodded and said: "I will, I will definitely let it get out of this shadow!"
Su Ping smiled slightly, said nothing more, and returned to the door of the store for a walk.
After all, the Thunder Rat was the first pet beast he cultivated. He also hoped that this little guy would end well and find a good home.
The good end of a pet animal is not to live to old age and die. The misfortune of a pet animal is not to die in battle, but to not meet a good master and not be treated well, or to survive and treat yourself well. The owner has passed away.
After Su Ping returned to the store, Yu Xin squatted next to Lei Guangshu, looked at it for a moment, and then left with her best friend.
Wait until night, at dusk.
Yu Xin came outside Su Ping's store again and found that it was still crowded.
"The business here is really good." Yu Xin couldn't help but sigh.
The best friend next to me said: "I heard that there is a very famous guy on this planet. I don't know where he is. We are all here. Let's go and meet him when we have time."
"Let's talk about it." Yu Xin originally came to this planet to play. If she hadn't met this little mouse, she might have accompanied her best friend to play everywhere. But now, she just wants to take this little guy away and let him live a better life. A truly happy day.
Yu Xin squatted in front of Lei Guangshu, took out another handful of purchased pet food, and handed it to Lei Guangshu.
The Lei Guangshu glanced at her, and began to eat lazily under her attentive eyes.
When he had almost finished eating, he fell asleep again.
Yu Xin smiled, feeling a little happy, and pulled her best friend away.
The next day, Yu Xin's figure appeared outside Su Ping's store again, still taking out the pet food until the Lei Guangshu couldn't eat anymore, then turned around and left, and never tried to touch it again.
