Chapter 660: Desperate Pegas
Zhang Zi'an is used to Wang Qian, Li Kun and Lu Yiyun coming to the store to work every morning, and suddenly none of them came, it was really awkward, and they had to do everything by themselves, this is the so-called from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift.
Even coaxed and deceived, and finally moved Fina, so that everyone could go to the police dog nursing home together, as for what if Fina found out that she was fooled again in the future...... We'll talk about that later.
Many companies, enterprises and institutions had holidays yesterday, and there were not as many migrant workers in Binhai City as there were in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, but even so, when it came to Chinese New Year's Eve, it seemed that the entire city was empty. Lee's Supreme Cat Sucking Snack Bar, which usually has been in a long queue, only had two or three people lined up outside the store today.
Zhang Zi'an didn't open the roller shutter door, and there were no guests anyway. He was sweeping the floor when he saw π pick up a rag and follow his example to wipe the table.
"π, thank you, but I'll come, you go play, it's rare to have a day off today." He snatched the rag from it.
π scratched his head and looked around very reservedly.
Since coming to the pet store, it has been staying on the second floor, and has basically never gone downstairs, and the first floor is a completely foreign world to it. Each elf has taken up its own territory, leaving it feeling a little confused.
"Let's go watch TV. Zhang Zi'an saw its confusion and said.
π tried to move in front of the TV, but didn't dare to get too close to Lao Cha, squatting on the ground at a distance of more than a meter, staring at the TV screen.
The TV shows the Spring Festival special as is customary, and there are a large number of people wandering outside the train station and airport terminals, and the host happily broadcasts which highway is stuck in traffic, but this is new to Lao Cha and π, and can give them a sense of how many people there are in China.
Lao Cha moved to the side, motioning for it to come closer.
π got a little closer, and it was much more comfortable to watch TV.
The TV reporter walked into the waiting hall of the train station, which was full of passengers carrying large bags and small bags, most of whom were bowing their heads and playing with their mobile phones.
The reporter randomly selected a few people for interviews, and the questions asked were more routine, nothing more than whether it was difficult to buy tickets, whether they wanted to go home, and so on.
"Huh, is that person looking at you?" Lao Cha pointed to a young man in the corner of the picture.
The man was photographed by chance when the reporter was randomly interviewing another person. As a background NPC, he sat in his chair without even raising his head, staring intently at the screen of his phone, which seemed to be the starting point app, and one of the icons on the bookshelf was the cover of the π.
"Squeak!" π exclaimed with delight. Although the man had only added it to the bookshelf and was not looking at it, it was still a matter of joy.
The footage lasted only a few seconds, and the reporter turned to interviewing the others.
π watched more intently, leaning forward for fear of missing any of the frames.
However, until the end of this Spring Festival interview, no similar footage appeared. Originally, it was already a very lucky thing to meet a person who was reading his book in the vast sea of people, and he couldn't ask for more. However, this also shows from the side that more and more people are reading the Internet.
π sighed slightly disappointed.
"Meow~π, do you want to play hide and seek together?"
It turned its face, and Xinghai crouched behind it, looking at it expectantly.
π clutched his head in fear, the pain of hitting his head during the last game of hide and seek still fresh in his memory.
Zhang Zi'an laughed when he saw this, "π, don't worry, just be careful in the future, don't be easily picked up by the Flying Horses." ”
"No, it's your business to play hide and seek, don't get involved with me, I can't play your hide and seek. Pemmas flatly refused.
"So, Feimath, you admit defeat?" Zhang Zi'an said defiantly with a broom.
Pemmas retorted: "Admit defeat? No, I didn't admit defeat, I just don't want to kill people because of playing hide and seek!"
"Don't find a reason, just admit defeat......" Zhang Zian waved his hand.
Pegas: "...... It seems that if I don't give you some color to see, do you really think I'm scared? ”
"Okay, who's going to be the ghost? Why don't you guess the boxing decision?" Zhang Zi'an was happy, and Feimasi's answer hit his heart.
Feimas looked down at his and Xinghai's claws, and then at Zhang Zi'an and π's palms, and felt the sorrow of Dandan's heart in his heart, knowing that if he guessed the box, he would definitely lose.
"No, you can't guess the fist, you can't flip a coin!" it said firmly.
"Toss a coin...... Zhang Zi'an put down his broom, touched his trouser pocket, took out his wallet and rummaged through, "I don't have any coins on me, wait a minute." ”
He went to the second floor to look for a coin, and after a while, he came down with a one-dollar coin.
"Come, who guesses?" he asked, tossing the coin into the air, then clasping it between his palms with a snap.
"Meow woo ~ Xinghai guess first!" Xinghai said excitedly.
Feimars: "......" guessed the coin, and it knew that it was definitely not an opponent of Xinghai.
"Didn't anyone guess with Xinghai?" Zhang Zi'an looked at them, "Then I will give up too, Xinghai doesn't have to guess." Pegasus and π guess first, whoever loses and who guesses with me, how about it?"
"That's fair. Pegasus agreed.
It generously said to π, "Guess first." ”
Zhang Zi'an also said to π: "π, you haven't guessed a coin before, right? Just guess which side rushes up, the side with numbers or the side with flowers?"
π blinked, gestured for them to wait, and returned to the second floor on all fours, holding the book in his arms when he came down, opened it, stretched out his finger and gestured "1".
Pegas: "...... You're cheating, aren't you? Didn't you say you couldn't use your own abilities?"
"It's said that you can't use your abilities when you play hide and seek, and it's the time to guess the coin. Zhang Zi'an corrected, "If you want to use your ability, you can do it." ”
"Forget it, I'll throw in the towel. Pemmas said helplessly. The book π records life, the universe, and everything, and of course the heads and tails of the coin, and Philippus can't compare to it if you guess the coin.
"Squeak!" π smiled happily.
"It's just the two of us now. Zhang Zi'an said to Pegasus seriously, "I'll give you a chance to admit defeat." ”
"I won't lose to you, let's rely on our luck. Pemmas said disdainfully, "I'll let you guess first." ”
"That's good. ”
Zhang Zi'an flicked the coin into the air again, and the coin drew a silver trajectory and fell between his palms again.
He stared intently at the back of his palm, as if he could see through it.
"Don't pretend to be a ghost, act like you have some superpowers......" Pemmas complained, "You think I've been tricked?"
Zhang Zi'an was unmoved, raised his eyes and stared at it and said, "I guess there is a number side facing up." ”
"Then I'll guess there's the flower side up. "Alright, don't waste any time, take your palms off and take a look." ”
Zhang Zi'an removed his palm, and the "1" on the coin fell into view, and he won.
Pemmas sighed and closed his eyes, "I'm going to start counting, you guys go hide it!1, 2, 3, 4......"
"Meow~"
"Squeak!"
"Haha! Don't peek at Pegas, you can't cheat!"
The sound of three footsteps running away in different directions.
Feimas patiently counted to 100 and opened his eyes.
It searched around the first floor, but couldn't find any of them, apparently they were all hiding on the second floor.
When it reached the second floor, it repeated its old tricks and shouted, "I see you, don't hide!"
This time π didn't fall for it.
Pegasus was not discouraged, anyway, there were only a few places to hide, and it was not afraid that it would not find them.
Having learned the lesson of the last time, it went straight to the kitchen and opened the door of the refrigerator with its paws.
There was no one in the freezer, just some fresh vegetables and fruits.
Feimas muttered in his heart, saying that Zhang Zi'an wouldn't really hide in the freezer, right?
"Are you in there?" it asked, staring at the freezer, "the same move can only be used once on me." If you're inside, you'd better come out and throw in the towel, or I'll find duct tape to seal the freezer?"
After waiting for a while, there was no movement in the freezer.
Zhang Zi'an is really not in it, or does he think it is scolding him?
Pemmas hesitated for a moment and opened the freezer door with his paws.
A chill poured out, and the freezer was empty - this was normal, and it would be scary if anyone did......
Feimas is somewhat relieved, it seems that Zhang Zi'an is not too frustrated......
Just in case, it opened the kitchen cabinets one by one, then jumped on the stove and looked into the range hood. It didn't know why it was looking for a range hood, and in short, Zhang Zi'an was not in it.
The persimmon wants to pick up the soft pinch, and Feimas subconsciously regards Zhang Zi'an as the softest persimmon - Xinghai will not talk about it, it listened to Zhang Zi'an read the π yesterday, and knows how good Xinghai is at playing hide and seek, and π has the blessing of books, which seems to be not to be underestimated.
Besides, Xinghai and π are very small and can hide in many places, but Zhang Zi'an is such a big living person, can he still go to the sky and enter the earth?
Pemmas confidently continued his search.
The kitchen has been searched, and then it has entered the bedroom and living room one after another, whether it is the wardrobe, under the bed, under the table, any place where large things can be hidden, it has searched all over it, but not only did it not find Xinghai and π, but even Zhang Zi'an did not find it.
Strange!
Feimas was stunned, now that there is only a storage room on the second floor, is it possible that the three of them are all hiding in the storage room?
Regardless, it pushed open the door to the pantry with one last glimmer of hope.
There was a lot of clutter in the pantry, but there was no cat, no monkey, and no man.
Feimas was unwilling to admit defeat, especially unwilling to lose to Zhang Zi'an, and searched the first and second floors up and down, but still didn't find the three of them.
"Lao Cha, the three of them didn't go out, did they?" it ran to confirm Lao Cha.
"Nope. Lao Cha smiled.
Feimas believes that Lao Cha will not lie to it, but this is very strange, can the three of them really go to heaven and earth?
It glanced up at Fina's cat climbing frame, and there was no Zhang Zi'an on the cat climbing frame...... Well, if the cat climbs on the frame with Zhang Zi'an lying on his stomach, it must be even more terrifying than the end of the world.
Pemmas searched again, this time even the kitchen trash can was turned over, but to no avail.
Thinking of the Haikou that he boasted about before playing hide and seek, it felt a hot pain in its face......
"Hey, come out, I'll throw in the towel!" it shouted as it ran to the second floor.
"Meow~Meow~Xinghai has won!" Xinghai ran out from the direction of the bedroom and cheered happily.
Feimas was not mentally prepared for Xinghai's ghostly appearance, and asked, "Xinghai, do you think they have any?"
"Meow~" Xinghai shook his head, "Xinghai was the first to come up." ”
Before he could ask questions, he heard several faint squeaks coming from the direction of the bedroom.
It's evil, why are they hiding in the bedroom?
"π, where are you?" it asked, running into the bedroom.
"Squeak. ”
Pegasus followed the sound to ...... Next to the air purifier.
“……”
The air purifier trembled slightly.
Pemmas remembered that he had just seen the filter of the air purifier in the pantry, and he felt strange at the time, but he didn't think about it deeply......
"π, are you hiding in an air purifier?" it asked.
"Squeak. ”
Inside the air purifier, the sound of the π is muffled.
Sometimes the air quality in Binhai City is not good, so every house always has an air purifier. The second floor of the pet store is relatively large, the bedroom and living room are opened up, the volume of this air purifier is not small, although it can't hide people, but it's no problem to hide only young monkeys.
Feimas said to the air purifier, "Zhang Zi'an hid you inside, right? By the way, where is he hiding?"
Knock knock!
There was a knock on the bedroom window.
However...... This is the window on the second floor.
"Quick...... Come and pull me, I'm going to fall......" Zhang Zi'an's cry for help came from outside the window.
Feimas stood up, grabbed the windowsill and looked out, only to see Zhang Zi'an grabbing the outer edge of the windowsill with both hands, his whole body hanging in the air, and his legs kicking wildly......
"Pegas, pull me ......" Zhang Zi'an barely squeezed out a smile.
Pemmas also smiled honey.
With a smile on his lips and an MMP in his heart.
Lao Cha really didn't lie to it, Zhang Zi'an really didn't go out - he went out of the window and kept hanging out of the windowsill, no wonder he couldn't find him.
As a commercial and residential house on the street, the floor height of the pet store is relatively high, Zhang Zi'an grabbed the window sill, his feet are about two or three meters from the ground, although this distance can not fall to death, but may sprain his ankle.
Outside the window was the secluded alley behind the store, and no one was moving at this time, otherwise they might have called the police.
"Quick, Feimas, don't just watch, pull me quickly, my fingers are going to cramp, I can't hold it anymore......" Zhang Zi'an urged.
Pemmas asked nonchalantly, "Didn't you think your fingers might cramp when you decided to do this?"
"This ......" Zhang Zi smiled humbly, "I didn't expect it at the time......
At this time, Xinghai also jumped on the windowsill, "Meow~ Zi'an, you are hiding outside the window again!"
Pegas: "...... Looks like you're a repeat offender?"
"No, no, it's really a misunderstanding!" Zhang Zi'an hurriedly explained, "When I used to play hide and seek with Xinghai, I usually lay on the windowsill, because Xinghai is relatively short, but you are tall, I think that squatting on the windowsill will definitely be seen by you, so I made this decision......"
"I don't support the wall, I'll obey you!" Feimas complained, "You know it's a good idea, but you still want to do it? Why don't you go to heaven?"
"Don't say it, I was wrong, pull me up......" Zhang Zi'an begged for mercy.
Pemmas was once again convinced that the hide-and-seek played by Zhang Zi'an and Xinghai was not in the same dimension as the hide-and-seek played by ordinary people. In a fit of rage, it went to the pantry and found a sturdy rope, wrapped one end around the bedroom doorknob, and threw the other end out of the window, allowing Zhang Zi'an to hold on to it and climb back into the house safely.
"Pegas, how is it, have you thrown in the towel?" he said proudly, haunted by his hips.
A silver coin rolled out of his trouser pocket, bounced on the ground a few times, and was clawed down by Pegasus before tipping over.
It looked down at the front, and it was the number "1", and then at the back, it was still the number "1......
"What kind of coin is this, and why are there numbers on both sides?" it asked earnestly.
"Ahem!" Zhang Zi'an saw that his trick was exposed, and said with a dry cough: "This is the magic coin I bought before......"
Feimas was already powerless to complain, "I'm begging you, don't call me next time you play hide and seek!"
Zhang Zi'an looked at the time and summed up his statement with satisfaction: "This is a hide-and-seek of victory, this is a hide-and-seek of unity, this is a hide-and-seek of carrying forward the past and forging ahead into the future, and it is a hide-and-seek of unifying thinking and uniting people's hearts...... What, it's almost time to eat, let's almost leave after eating. ”
