Wen Jingyi looked up and saw Lu Yao, raised her eyebrows slightly, and restrained her anger.
She is an actress. She is used to facing the camera and the public at work, but she is extremely cautious in her private affairs and does not want to be pried into too much.
The girl carrying the cage nodded slightly at her as a greeting, but it was not as warm and pleasant as she had expected. She walked straight to the small swing, squatted down and put the cage down.
Shi Bin turned around and reached out to pull Wen Jingyi, "Let's go. There's no doctor here. If you have an allergy, you won't be able to find medicine."
Wen Jingyi is allergic to cats and gets rashes on her body when she comes into contact with them.
The two discovered a magical cat cafe in the deep sea. They hesitated outside for a long time before deciding to come in.
They wanted to know where this was and how to leave, but as soon as they got in, they started arguing over a trivial matter and were watched by everyone the whole way.
After a few twists and turns, we arrived at the jellyfish room.
There are no cats here, and not too many people. Being alone, the little emotions in my heart surfaced again, and the prelude to the Cold War has been sounded.
Wen Jingyi was not angry at all, but she was concerned about the presence of others, so she did not say anything. Instead, she twisted her waist, avoided Shi Bin's hand, and turned to walk out.
“Chirp, chirp.”
Lu Yao lifted the cloth covers on the bird cages one by one and opened the cage.
The little fat guys lined up to take up their posts.
Wen Jingyi stopped and turned around to see colorful little balls of fur jumping on the ground and chirping happily. Her eyes lit up and she turned around to say, "Why are there birds here? Isn't this a cat cafe?"
A violet lovebird stopped in front of Lu Yao, lowered its head, and politely asked to be petted.
Lu Yao reached out and gently scratched the fur on its neck, and replied, "This is a furry shop. We have cats and birds, and we will introduce other species of furry animals in the future."
Wen Jingyi saw that the little fat girl closed her eyes after being rubbed by Lu Yao, and stretched her neck and twisted it back and forth, looking extremely comfortable. She couldn't help but squat down, "Are you a clerk here? Where is this place and how can I leave?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a little goose yellow black chicken jumped over, stretched out its head and politely asked to be touched.
"So cute." Wen Jingyi touched it tentatively.
The hair on the little fat bird's chest is puffed up. When you poke your fingers into it, it feels like sinking into a ball of dough full of air holes, soft and light.
Seeing the chicken acting cute towards the guests, Lu Yao was so adorable that he even felt a little proud. He nodded and said, "This is just the sea. You must have come here for a reason. It's not difficult to leave. Just put down your burdens, eat, drink and have fun. When the time comes, you can leave naturally."
"How long will it take before we leave? We've been here for several days." Wen Jingyi was a little anxious.
Except for the fat little chick that was still in business, the other chicks had already flown to the crossbar and were standing there.
The brightly colored chicks are scattered at different heights, like stuffed toys hung out to dry, but more vivid than stuffed toys.
Lu Yao packed up the empty cage, stood up and said, "Everyone's time is different. I'm not sure about the details, but the more anxious people are, the harder it is to leave here."
Wen Jingyi stood up and said, "I want to meet the owner of this store. Can you help introduce him to me?"
She couldn't wait and had to go back immediately, otherwise she would miss the scheduled date.
The clerk knew nothing about anything he asked. Since the boss could open a shop here, he must know a way to get back.
Lu Yao turned around, with a helpless expression: "No need to introduce myself, I'm the boss. Anything else?"
Wen Jingyi: “???”
Not a clerk
She thought the manager of such a strange shop in such a strange place must be an unapproachable hermit, but it turned out to be such a young girl.
Wen Jingyi: "I... just want to know how to get back. I have a job and can't delay it."
Hearing this, Shi Bin, who had been standing silently beside him, frowned, "You still want to audition? It's been less than half a year since we got married, and you want to go to work again. How long do you plan to stay away from me this time?"
"..." Wen Jingyi glanced at Lu Yao awkwardly, walked over and held Shi Bin's wrist, and whispered, "This role is very rare. If you miss it, you don't know how long you will have to wait."
Shi Bin sneered: "Who was it that promised me on our wedding night that I would only be his wife from now on?"
Wen Jingyi said innocently: "How can I take what I say in my sleep seriously?"
Shi Bin: “…”
Lu Yao: “???”
Is this something I can listen to without paying
Lu Yao silently picked up the cage and turned to walk out.
Hearing Qingmei's vivid description, she really thought there was some earth-shattering news.
Isn’t this a loving couple? But I was caught off guard and my mouth was filled with dog food. How hateful!
The two killer whales had their faces pressed against the transparent membrane, their eyes dark and shiny, as if they were also listening to the gossip.
Lu Yao paused and recognized that it was the killer whale calf and A who had turned into a killer whale.
"Little A" is the code name she gave to the man she always met in different worlds. She had met him so many times, but still didn't know his name.
"Why are you here?" Lu Yao approached the wall and asked in a low voice.
The killer whale was whimpering, as if it had something to ask her.
Lu Yao followed them and walked into the tunnel leading to the whale room.
After Wen Jingyi finished speaking, she turned around to look for Lu Yao, but there was no one there: "Where is the owner?"
Shi Bin sat cross-legged on the ground: "I don't know."
Wen Jingyi squatted down and pulled him, "Let's go find her."
Shi Bin: "Why are you looking for her?"
Wen Jingyi: "Don't you want to go back?"
Shi Bin: "Didn't she say that we can go back after eating, drinking and having fun? Then stay and have fun. This place is quite big."
As he said this, he waved at the fat little birds standing on the crossbar, and a group of them actually flew over and landed in his hair and shoulders.
Shi Bin suddenly sat up on his knees and gently pulled his hair, "Help me get it off!"
A small yellow peach was nestled neatly in his hair, looking round and fluffy.
Wen Jingyi laughed so hard that she fell backwards, "Shi Bin, you are so cute."
The young master of the Shi family was stunned, and then his ears turned red.
-
The initial upgrade of the furry shop has been completed and the space is now sufficient, but Lu Yao always feels that something is missing.
When there are no customers, the store looks very cold and empty.
The tunnel leading to the whale room is very long, with dense algae on both sides. It is a bit dark where the sunlight cannot reach.
"Hmm." A outside the wall membrane maintained a speed similar to hers and swam with her in an almost companionable manner.
Every few meters, he would suddenly make a "hmm" sound, as if reminding her "I'm here".
Lu Yao has already explored the nearby sea areas and is not actually afraid.
She was just thinking about whether she could use some interior decoration and small details to enhance the warmth and experience of the furry shop. There were almost no customers coming to the whale room on their own initiative.
The killer whale calf had already swam very far away. It would occasionally look back to make sure Lu Yao was catching up, and then it would grunt and swim forward, seeming a little anxious.
A black piano sat quietly in the whale room, without a single guest.
The room was a little dim. Lu Yao took out four transparent magic gems from his portable storage, fixed them to the wall with a magic circle, and then injected magic power into them.
The gem lit up, and the light was bright and soft, instantly illuminating the whale room.
"Hmm—"
“Boo-boo—”
“Click, click—”
The moment the room lit up, the sound came towards Lu Yao from all directions like a tide.
She couldn't help but raise her head, her feet went soft, and she leaned against the wall and slowly slid down to sit on the floor.
Whales. All whales.
Groups of killer whales, humpback whales, sperm whales, blue whales... They face the whale room, hovering above it like a submarine, gently shaking their flippers and tails, as if they can crush this transparent room at any time.
Below the huge whale group, there are small sharks, whale sharks, manta rays, jellyfish...
Lu Yao sat back and watched this amazing scene.
Killer whale A swam and tapped the wall membrane with its tail, "Mee."
Lu Yao came back to his senses, feeling that he had regained some strength. He tried to stand up and typed into the system: "What's going on?"
System: [They seem to have something to ask you. ]
Lu Yao: "I have eyes."
System: […Then why are you asking me? ]
Lu Yao: "In this situation, will it be dangerous to go out?"
System: [… Do you really dare to go out? ]
Lu Yao: "How else do we know why they came here?"
Everyone was shocked.
The shop owner's legs were so weak with fear, but he still dared to go out.
This courage actually touched everyone a little.
System: [Go ahead. This system will make an exception and protect you for free this time. If you are in danger, I will send you back to the store immediately.]
Lu Yao: "So it really has a protection function. Under what conditions will it actively protect me?"
system:[…]
I was tricked.
The whale room also has a side door. Taking into account that there might be need to rescue whales, Lu Yao specially built two steps at the door to place tools.
She put on her diving suit and came out. The large group of whales were still staying there, as quiet and solemn as an army.
Lu Yao swam slowly upwards, and the largest sperm whales and blue whales in the whale group swam out of the formation and approached Lu Yao.
Two giant sea beasts surrounded Lu Yao, roaring and howling.
Any human being would be weakened if they encountered a sperm whale that is nearly 20 meters long and weighs more than 20 tons, or a blue whale that is more than 30 meters long and weighs nearly 200 tons in the deep sea, especially when they are so close.
Lu Yao even felt that the sperm whale wanted to get close to her and touch her. She felt weak and sank uncontrollably. "… I seem to have giant phobia too."
They were too big and they were in the ocean.
Lu Yao spit out a string of bubbles, and every pore on his body was shouting "Help".
“Hmm.”
Her back hit a hard spot, and a round-headed killer whale swam over and supported her with its body.
It is A.
Lu Yao rested his elbows on the smooth back of killer whale A, grasped the upright dorsal fin, and lay on him, panting: "You are still more adorable."
Killer Whale A: “…”
The deep-sea monsters seemed to realize something and no longer approached actively.
Lu Yao took a deep breath and tried to touch the sperm whale right in front of him.
Ten seconds later, a loud and clear male voice came, with deep disappointment: "She... is not mother... Mother... did not come back..."
The male sperm whale was immersed in the sorrow of his mother not returning. He repeated these two sentences over and over again and swam away from Lu Yao in disappointment.
A fat milky white starfish with dark brown fleshy protrusions on its arms and body fell off the skin of the leading sperm whale, sank and staggered, and landed right into Lu Yao's palm.
The blue whale swam towards Lu Yao. She grabbed the starfish in one hand and reached out to read the blue whale's thoughts.
Most of human fear comes from the unknown. When Lu Yao learned that the whales were just looking for their mothers, he was not so scared anymore.
This is an old blue whale with a huge body, deep and clear eyes, and a voice that is hoarse from the years.
"Mother must still be here... Humans who play the divine song, please find her and save her... We... can't find her..."
god
God again.
The whales come with a lot of noise and leave silently.
Only a small group of killer whales remained, and they were the same group of killer whales that Lu Yao had rescued when he was diving in the sea.
Lu Yao got off killer whale A and stepped onto the steps at the door. He still held A's upright dorsal fin tightly in his hand. He leaned against him, stared into his round eyes, and asked tentatively, "Do you know where the 'mother' is?"
Killer Whale A opened his mouth and said innocently: "Hmm?"
