Different from the nervousness when he faced the camera for the first time many years ago in the big return period, the small return period is completely star-like. Seeing that the big black guy in front of him was getting closer and closer, he was not afraid, and he stuck out his claws to scratch the shiny thing because of the reflection.
"This one can't be caught." Qi Jin held it in time to avoid scratching the lens of the camera.
"Your cat is so funny and smart." The cameraman carried the device on his shoulder, looked at the appearance of the small return date through the lens, and praised.
Qi Jin temporarily put the small return date back into the small box, and while freeing up her hand to confirm the outline of the action for the last time, she chatted with her colleagues: "This little guy lives comfortably at home, he is very pampered, and he has three daily tasks. Just eat, sleep, and play. This time, I just brought it out to practice, don’t really become a lazy cat.”
The little returnee looked up in the box and looked up at the master and a few strangers busy, with a naive and ignorant face.
As everyone knows, today will be the big day for it to embark on the road of acting practice.
Qi Jin pinned the miniature microphone in an inconspicuous place under his collar, and covered it with a coat. The camera assistant helped him put a miniature camera in his satchel. After the equipment was fixed, Qi Jin briefly tried the camera angle in the van. Everything was ready, so she picked up the small return date and got off the bus.
In the past few days, he gave full play to the reporter's observation ability and studied the living habits of the little guy.
As Shen Yan said, the little guy would feel drowsy and want to sleep after he was full. Therefore, Qi Jin specially let him have a full meal in advance.
Sure enough, the cat in the crook of the arm was already showing a bit of sleepiness at this time, with sleepy eyes, and he didn't even bother to stretch his paws.
Qi Jin smiled slightly and strode towards a pet hospital not far away.
After entering the gate, he first looked around the lobby and saw nothing like the business license or animal epidemic prevention certificate hanging on the wall. The facilities seemed to be relatively simple, but there were still customers, who were sitting on chairs and waiting sporadically. After he finished his observation and let the camera in the bag take a shot, he walked to the counter.
The receptionist smiled and spoke softly: "Hello, do you need any help?"
Looks like a good attitude.
So he dubbed the acting skills that he had trained for three years and started.
"My cat seems to be sick, can I ask the doctor here to see it? This is my first time raising a cat, and I am inexperienced. These two days have made me anxious." Qi Jin raised her hand with a frown. The cat that I was holding on the top begged bitterly.
The anxiety in his voice is very strong, as if the little guy in his hand is a piece of meat on the tip of his heart, and he is reluctant to let it suffer a little.
To say "as if" is to create the effect of ambiguity.
Saying "the first time I raised a cat" is to highlight my ignorant side.
The receptionist gave a soft "Ah" and showed great concern. She turned around and greeted a medical assistant who looked like an intern: "You check this kitten first to see the symptoms."
Qi Jin secretly squeezed a handful of the meat pad of the small return period, and the small return period opened half of his eyes, thinking that the owner was going to play with it, but Qi Jin ignored it for a long time, and didn't give it a smooth hair, it just complained and meowing. call. It sounded like a whimper due to discomfort.
The intern assistant walked over casually, took over the small return date, held the little guy's armpit and raised it, glanced at it, and put it down without much inspection.
At this time, the receptionist took out a price list from under the table very smoothly, put it in front of Qi Jin, and showed the inspection items here with a smile: "Look at the fees here first. Generally speaking, it is the first time to raise cats. We recommend a full set of examinations, including feces, blood, and microbiological tests, mainly for fear of feline distemper and peritonitis."
Qi Jin had been quietly staring at the intern's movements before, but only now did he withdraw his gaze.
He was still at a loss as to what to do, and asked dumbly, "Cat plague? What is cat plague, and what is that abdominal inflammation?"
Actually he knew exactly what those were.
Shen Yan read the treatment diary to him every night in front of the bed, chatting about the little animal while reading.
He listened intently, and asked Shen Yan to pause for a while when he encountered a technical term that he did not understand, to do some popular science. And Shen Yan's explanation was very detailed, and the cause, pathology, and condition were recounted from the beginning until he figured it all out.
After coming and going, he gradually became familiar with the common symptoms of these cats, and the symptoms were almost able to be memorized.
A father with a cat is really at ease in his heart—
The receptionist asked the intern to briefly introduce cat plague and peritonitis. The intern talked about it in general, and many places were taken in a hurry, focusing on the consequences, but also very serious.
Qi Jin nodded dazedly as if he had heard it for the first time, and occasionally made a frightened gasp.
"I probably know." His six words made the receptionist and assistant smile at the same time, but the following words immediately made this smile disappear, "But I don't have that much money, can I just do a stool test?"
It was the cheapest of these inspections, only 30 yuan.
The corner of the receptionist's mouth ticked downwards, and she slowly looked at him for a while, and then tilted back again: "Sir, it's your first time raising a cat, so you should be more cautious. And after this series of tests, our hospital has a discount. , is this your first time here? We will give you 25% off, and we will charge you 300 for the whole set. What do you think?"
Qi Jin showed a thoughtful look, walked a few steps in front of the counter, and finally shook her head: "I had an operation a few days ago, and the money was used to pay for the medical bills, so I'm a little tight... You just need to do a stool examination. "
After speaking, he pointed to his left arm with a plaster cast to prove that what he said was the truth.
Upon seeing this, the intern assistant shrugged his shoulders and went to collect fecal samples for the small return period.
The receptionist's smile didn't seem to be as kind as when she had just entered the door. She printed out a receipt, waved it, and threw it in front of him for him to pay.
Qi Jin paid the laboratory fee with a good temper and kept the receipt - this money will naturally be turned over to the unit for reimbursement.
He waited in the lobby for less than ten minutes with the return date in his arms, and the intern-like person came out and told him that the kitten had cat plague and needed hospitalization.
"Doctor, are you sure my cat has cat plague?" Qi Jin was basically certain that this person was not a doctor, but he still used the most respectable title.
"Yes, you see red lines appear on the test paper." The assistant held up a white test paper with a barely visible red line on it. Shen Yan once talked to him about this thing, saying that the test paper test has a low accuracy rate, and the standard diagnosis method for feline plague is to look at the number of white blood cells in the blood, or to use feces for virus testing. And the whole procedure of the latter is definitely more than ten minutes.
"There's no other way," Qi Jin suddenly said with a sad face, rolling up the half-awake little return date, "I have no money to see the little guy, so I have to send him home and let him spend the rest of his life well."
The assistant stared at him dumbfounded.
"Cat plague... If the cat plague is not treated in time, it will really... die." It seemed that Qi Jin had changed his previous attitude.
"I know, but that's the only way." Qi Jin made a rather tragic expression.
In fact, the little guy showed no signs of cat plague on his body. He just completed a blood test a few days ago. The number of white blood cells was normal, and the virus test was normal. He was still happily in Shen Yan's arms last night. He just realized that the time was almost up, and he was going to take the little guy back to the car for some awards and let him eat snacks.
After that, Qi Jin used the same technique to make unannounced visits to several other pet medical institutions.
One of the doctors told him with great certainty that he had peritonitis during the return period, and said that the 100% fatality rate rumored by the outside world was unreliable. His clinic had rescued a batch of patients, but they had to use special imported injections. Two hundred for each, and it only worked for a week in a row. Qi Jin naturally found an excuse to decline.
Later, there were those who sold cat supplies, those who charged outpatient fees indiscriminately, and those who used the wrong dog distemper test strips for inspection...
Fortunately, one family was relatively normal. After the routine examination, the nurse told him that the cat had no special symptoms. If necessary, he would ask the doctor to see it. Qi Jin smiled and said thank you, offered to observe for two more days, and then left.
Of course, the whole process of the investigation has been recorded on the tiny camera.
The provincial TV station has been in constant contact with the industry and commerce department for a long time. There are regular assistants there. He reported the names of the institutions he visited today and asked them to check whether these places have business licenses.
As for the appearance of the hospital and clinic, my colleagues outside had already finished filming, and they just waited to go back and edit it later.
"According to the plan, there are four more in the afternoon. This Saturday, we can finish work a little earlier." said the equipment assistant in charge of driving. As soon as it was noon, they stopped near a residential area and took a short rest.
"Well, go back as soon as you finish." Qi Jin smiled. For the first time since his work, he felt that he was in a hurry to go home every day.
He closed his eyes and rested for a while after serving the small return meal, when the mobile phone on his waist suddenly beeped.
There are text messages.
In fact, he had already guessed who it was before he took out his phone, but when he saw the word "Yan" on the sender's column, the fatigue of the morning seemed to vanish, and he smiled unconsciously. It is estimated that he was afraid of hindering his work. The text of the text message was short, but very heart-warming: [Going out for interviews has been hard work, you must remember to take time to eat at noon, and don’t starve yourself. 】
Qi Jin looked down silently for a long time, rubbing her thumb on the words on the screen, over and over again, her smile continued to increase.
"I'll go out and make a phone call."
He got up and told his colleague, then got out of the car and found a secluded corner, leaning against the wall to dial the other party's number.
"Hello?" The call was quickly connected, and Qi Jin smiled softly to greet him, "Dr. Shen, you've worked hard. Has the hospital reached its break time?"
"Well, there was an operation this morning, a little later than usual. But it's all right now." Shen Yan was originally on Saturdays, and he made an exception to ask for a day off to visit the doctor that day. Of course, Qi Jin didn't know about this until later, or overheard it while chatting with the head nurse in the hospital.
"Then you must be very tired. Go to the lounge now and lie down. I'll talk about it when I go back in the evening."
Qi Jin had seen Shen Yan go to the operating table. The burden of this work has always been heavy. He frowned when he heard the word "surgery" and urged him to take a nap.
"It's alright," maybe because she was close to the microphone, Shen Yan's breath could be heard clearly, and there was an illusion of whispering in her ear, "It's you, do you have a good meal? Try to eat something to pamper your stomach. I put a bag of nutritious dry food in your bag, just for you to eat when you are busy."
"So you put that one? I thought it was Miss Tianluo." Qi Jin couldn't help laughing.
I didn't realize it when I went out. When I needed to pick up the documents, I opened the shoulder bag and found that there was an extra bag of dry food in it, all of which were delicious and easy to digest healthy food. I thought to myself that there would be no second person who would let this go—but since the other party admitted it, I might as well make a joke.
Shen Yan was really amused by him, with a slight smile in her voice: "That's just for temporary hunger. You must remember to eat normal meals, whether it's takeout or not. I'll cook something when you come back in the evening."
The plum in Qi Qin's heart seemed to be ripe, and even turned into wine, which made him slightly drunk.
Obviously, the temperature in this city has continued to cool these days, and he is already wearing a thick jacket, but he can't feel it at all. No wonder, when I stayed in Shen Yan's house, the food was hot and the bedding was warm. Now I can hear such a warm reminder when I call back when I go out to work.
This fall... doesn't seem so sad anymore.
"I see," he whispered, "I'll go back after work today, don't worry about it, just wait for me."
When he said this, a leaf was scraped from the top of the tree above his head. The golden color and the ray of sunlight that penetrated the clouds in the sky were superimposed on each other, scorching and dazzling. The fallen leaves were lifted by the wind, so his eyes kept chasing the leaves spinning in the wind, and his voice seemed brisk because of pleasure.
"Well, I'll wait for you." Shen Yan's voice was different, as thick and steady as the earth.
The leaves fall back to their roots and return to the earth.
He also hopes that he can be like that leaf and return to that person as soon as possible.
When Qi Jin proposed to buy a lunch box, the colleagues all showed stunned expressions and looked at him blankly.
In the eyes of everyone on the news channel, Qi Jin is a standard workaholic. The members of the interview team who have partnered with him know that he basically does not eat during work. The lunch in the middle is especially easy to be omitted, and they all like to work. Only gobble it down when it's over, or replenish your strength with a late-night snack.
Now that he suddenly started eating lunch according to normal people's rules, the friends were naturally shocked.
"Why do you look at me like this, don't you usually buy lunch boxes to eat?" Qi Jin couldn't help laughing when he noticed that the car was full of people staring at him like they were looking at rare animals.
"It's not surprising to eat a boxed lunch. What's strange is that you actually proposed to eat a boxed lunch." Before the cameraman's mouth was fully closed, he hurriedly interjected.
"Ah, because I ate a little dry food before, I wasn't very hungry, so I just bought a boxed lunch. I won't go to a restaurant." He didn't want to waste anything Shen Yan prepared for him. I simply ate a few pieces of dry food, and after dealing with the follow-up problems of the work, when everyone really wants to eat, they will officially eat.
"No, that's not what you mean," the lighting engineer shook his head like a rattle, "It's strange that you eat on time."
"I'm a fracture patient, I'm recuperating." Qi Jin narrowed his eyes and smiled slyly.
"makes sense… "
"I see… "
"You are so naive, this kid must be hiding something from us!" Only the equipment assistant in the group did not buy it. He used to do errands on the entertainment channel for a while, and his ability to catch gossip was higher than that of ordinary colleagues, and he was not fooled by Qi Jin. When he said this, he suddenly clapped his palms and his eyes lit up, "I understand, Qi Jin, you probably have a girlfriend!"
As soon as these words came out, all the eyes in the car came to him.
Qi Jin smiled and denied it without any pressure: "No, no, yes."
The equipment assistant had the word "unbelief" written all over his face, and his index finger pointed at him without moving, insisting on asking for the truth: "Don't lie, you will deduct your salary for lying, and there will be no bonus at the end of the year."
He kept his salary and bonuses.
Because it is indeed not a girlfriend, but a boyfriend, although the word "under review" is attached to the label.
So Qi Jin didn't blushed or panted, and said with a candid smile: "I really don't have a girlfriend. After my car accident, I lived in someone else's house temporarily. His meal time is very regular, and I have inconvenience with my hands. I do it, of course I eat it when it’s ready. I’m used to it when I eat it, and now I’m hungry when it’s time.”
Probably because his tone was too calm, all his colleagues believed his words, and even the equipment assistant was defeated and had to give up continuing to dig out his private news.
Everyone parked in front of a fast food restaurant and went down to buy box lunches.
Qi Jin chose a lighter one, and went back to the car with a few colleagues to eat. In the past, even the rough boxed meals sold in the public canteen of the hospital could be eaten cleanly. Now the quality has improved to a higher level. He chewed it in his mouth but felt flat, and no one else could eat it as well.
"Oops..." Qi Jin stopped his chopsticks, lowered his head and smiled to himself, muttering to himself.
It seems that my tastes have changed and become more picky than before.
Of course he knew why.
In addition to going out to work, he eats three meals a day prepared by Shen Yan almost every day. They are fresh, clean, and full of color, fragrance, and flavor. How can an ordinary boxed lunch on the market compare to this
"It seems that I can't go back quickly."
He smiled and continued to eat. Only when his body had strength would he be more efficient and finish work as soon as possible.
What's more, today is the day when the shortlist of "Zhu Tian Ling" contestants is announced.
