Chapter 26 Pet Shop
Leah is caught between Nina and Ellie. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoHer unique incongruity with women, and her posture of being a cut shorter than them, make her movements very strange, and sometimes even affect the two girls next to her.
Even so, Nina and Ellie still didn't plan to let go from the beginning, and kept walking on the road in such a strange sandwich way.
The three of them walked through the pedestrian street at the school gate and walked out onto the crowded street outside.
Most of the people here are students from the academy, and they are bustling along the edges of the stalls on both sides of the street, perhaps talking to the shopkeepers or wandering around the shops, exploring the mysteries. Some of the anxious students, all of whom already had some strange little toys in their hands, had obviously bought them, and they were playing and chatting with their companions as they walked.
Throughout the street, almost every store has some customers. During this time period, the passenger flow is still very impressive.
Most of the large specialty restaurants and local famous restaurants are filled with adults in noble costumes or young people in golden robes, who have more money and enough money to spend here.
Although there are also red-robed or blue-robed students in these stores, their numbers are very small. Most of them are in fast food restaurants, or some ordinary snack bars that resemble civilians. After all, there is still a restaurant in the academy, and if you don't want to spend extra money and get entangled, then you should go back to the academy to eat.
Of course, the number of people in those fast food restaurants is also very impressive, and they attract a lot of customers by relying on the large number of cheap prices, and there is even a long queue of adults outside the store.
In addition to food and play, there are more than ordinary stores around for leisure and entertainment. Just as complex as they are are some prop shops. For example, potions, armor, weapons, magic crystals, spirit crystals, these shops have small shops, stalls, and large high-rise buildings.
It's like the building that sold magic crystals at Leah's corner just now. This building actually has seventeen floors, several floors higher than their teaching buildings!
This kind of building amazed Leah, but she didn't expect that there was no reinforced concrete here, and there was no such complex machinery to carry and build. The same can make such an amazing majestic building.
Although there was plenty of time, Nina and Ellie walked and chatted along the way, and at most they only talked about the surrounding buildings along the way, but when they finally reached the pet shop that Nina said, it still took a long time. Because during the journey, Nina and Ellie always wanted to go to those clothing stores to pick up clothes. In order to save their foot strength, every time they had such an idea, it would be terminated by Leah's strong opposition.
How could Leah object?
Of course, every time I was caught by Nina...
After a lot of effort, Leah finally reached the front of the pet store. At first glance, the storefront is really the same as Nina said, and even the name has not changed.
Yes, the name of this pet shop, that is, the storefront, is called a pet store.
Seeing this name, Leah was a little embarrassed, the name of this store was too casual, right?
From the door, this store is quite small, about 5 meters wide. Even though it is said to be 5 meters, such a long length may seem very wide in the impression of the size of the store's door. But here, when you see the shops on the side, you don't say that.
The width of each store is basically 10 meters wide. Some are a little wider, even reaching fifty meters. And as I said just now, the building that sells spirit crystals is no longer called a building that sells things, but should be called a supermarket, a supermarket! There is a façade size of nearly 100 meters wide!
So, when I see this 5-meter-wide façade now, it feels a little narrow.
Leah looked inside the store, the atmosphere there was different from the lively outside, the state of people coming and going, a little monotonous and dark.
It's nice to have sunlight on the outside, but inside the store it's very dark. At the same time, there was no lighting equipment hanging in it, and the deepest part of it became black, and there was nothing on display.
Leah was a little puzzled that soft light should be used as indoor lighting in the pet store, which can better bring out the warmth of the pet and the feeling of needing love. Even to protect some of the photophobic animals inside, there's no need to make it so dark, right?
I don't know how many people will be scared off by this bleak internal environment.
In this regard, Nina also felt a little strange: "Huh, this shop is so dark, how can my uncle recommend this kind of shop?" After she finished speaking, she turned her head to look at the house number on the side of the store, sure that it was this one.
At the same time, from the beginning to the end of the pet store, there was no waiter to entertain or a keeper who was taking care of the animals.
Unable to attract customers, resulting in a decrease in revenue, so layoffs.
Leah felt a little more embarrassed about the pet store. The first impact of the store is not enough, so it can't attract customers, and without customers, there is no income, and after the income is reduced, in order to maintain the fundamentals, you can only continue to reduce expenses. It became a complete cycle of nausea.
Nina sighed, "Since my uncle has recommended me, I'd better go in and have a look, will you come?" she wanted to step into the store, turning her head to look at Leah and Ellie. Nina's behavior is obvious, she wants them to accompany you to take a look.
Maybe it's a little lonely.
"Hmm. Allie agreed without hesitation. Leah had no choice but to silently follow behind.
The three of them entered the store.
Unlike the first impression of the store, the floor is clean and there is no unpleasant smell.
In the middle is about three meters up to the head of the aisle. On either side of the wall, symmetrical clear glass boxes are placed, each containing pets.
Although there are more than ten meters or even longer walkways, there are pets placed on both sides. But after the three of them entered, they made any noise, and the pets did not make any sound, which seemed particularly strange and unspeakable. This is a pet shop!
It shouldn't be that as soon as you enter the store, you hear a healing meow, a meow, a way sound. Is it constantly coming, around the ear? Are these pets not very obedient?
Look at the side, near the table at the cashier at the entrance of the store, there is a little Lori with cat ears on her head.
It's the only living person they've ever seen!
She had short dark yellow hair and was only 7 or 8 years old, but for some reason she was sleeping on her stomach wearing a pair of realistic cat ears, and she seemed to sleep very deeply and fragrantly, and her saliva was dripping onto the table.
In front of her desk, there is a spring sign in the shape of cat ears. The general content written on it is: Please choose at will when you enter the store, and don't wake her up if you don't buy it!
Nina shook her head helplessly when she saw the sign, gave up waking her up, and had to pull Ellie to continue walking inside.
When I went inside, I found that most of the Akashi here had been damaged, so the inside was very dark and monotonous. Near the entrance of the store, there is also the light of the sun, and the front half of the store has a bright feeling.
On both sides of the corridor are pet crates, built like a staircase, stacked on top of each other three levels high. To make it easier for pets to get on and off, there are also some short steps on the side of the box as tools.
Look closely at the chests, which, strangely, are not closed. It's like a cube with one side missing, and you don't see any railings on the outside of the chest, or a baffle on it, and it is placed on the ground. A closer look at the chests revealed no bayonets on the sides.
That said, the crates are deliberately designed to look like this.
However, the animals seem to be very adaptable to this design, lying down in the cage and napping, and when they see someone coming to see it, they will open their eyes at most, and they will not make any noise.
Of course, there is also a very energetic part of the pets, they are playing with the toys in the cage, sometimes biting and sometimes licking, which is very cute.
"Leah, Ellie, this is so cute! Come and touch it!" Nina gently stroked the hair on the animal's back, teasing its chin, and laughing from time to time.
Ellie stepped forward and placed his hand on the creature as Nina commanded.
"Wow, it's so soft, it's so comfortable!" said Ellie, who let out a soft exhalation. Xiang Nina said happily that touch is her most important sensory source, and she is naturally happy to meet warm creatures.
The little animals in the box did not have the slightest disgust at the touch of the two, but continued to lie meekly inside the box, and some even squinted their eyes comfortably.
Leah took a closer look at the animals, which were divided into three categories, most of them like cats and dogs, and they were very similar in appearance and posture.
There is also a third animal that Leah has never seen at all!
It is an animal that is covered with hair, like a hairball, of various colors and sizes, and its features and tail are not visible, and if it is active, it will move around in the box. However, Leah didn't know what she was doing, whether she was using her hands or feet, and she decided to use the word "roll" when she looked like it.
Leah walked inside, and several cats appeared around the ground, and they were lying lazily on the ground, blocking the way of a large space. Leah moved cautiously, trying not to disturb them.
Seeing Leah walking towards the dark place in the depths, Nina let go of the hairball in her hand and asked with some doubts: "Sister Leah, is it okay to walk in like this? The light inside is very dim!"
Hey, hey, hey, it's just to walk in, or how can I get rid of you?
Then she waved her hand, nodded to herself, and then to the inside. It means that I want to go in and see it alone.
Nina was hesitant to take Ellie with her. The line of sight ahead is not very good, and if there is any debris to interfere and obstruct, it may hurt Ellie.
At this time, Ellie smiled gently and understandingly, relieving Nina's worries: "It's okay, I'll have some light." Then, with Leah stunned, Ellie began to act like Nina did when she unleashed her skills. After chanting a few incantations, a gray-white air flow appeared around the index finger.
Soon, a faint glimmer of light appeared on it, which grew brighter and brighter under the gaze of the two of them, and finally reached the point where it could illuminate the surrounding area.
Nina hugged Ellie and said happily, "Oops, I almost forgot about your natural bright stone." ”
And Leah, who saw such a scene, was a little cloudy in her head, is this okay?
The cats seemed to be impressed by the light in Ellie's hands, and woke up from their hazy sleep, and they meowed, stepped on their little feet, and walked to Ellie's feet. After rubbing her calves with her face coquettishly, she climbed into the box and continued to nap and sleep.
The obstructions in the road were opened.
Nina and the others quickly caught up with Leah.
Entering the rear, Nina asked Ellie to dim the light because she was worried that there would be creatures that were afraid of light.
Leaning on the faint white light, Leah looked at the box inside.
The most obvious difference between this outside and the outside is that all the boxes here are locked with doors. This was set up to prevent outsiders from coming into contact with the creatures inside. Show that they may be dangerous, or that they should not be harmed.
Although there was a thick layer of glass partition, Leah still observed it with relish. There is also a difference between this and the outside: the animals inside are strange, varied, and dazzling in appearance. Inside each box, the pets stored are completely different!
Nina on the side was a little difficult to judge, what kind of pet it was, and even she had pets that she didn't know at all.
The number of boxes stored here is obviously much less than that of the outside, and it will be finished in a while. But Leah was going to keep going. After all, he couldn't see his fingers just now, and now with the light in Ellie's hand, he could tell that there was something hidden inside.
Leah found a door on the wall at the very end. She touched it and found that it was just an ordinary wooden door, and it was not locked, but a wooden piggyback was inserted to prevent it from being pushed open by man.
Do I turn it on? or do I turn it on?
Leah probed her head to look behind her, and Nina was explaining to Ellie in detail what the pet in front of them looked like, where was the uniqueness, and what was cute.
Looking at the door from a distance, at the front desk cashier, a little Lori wearing cat ears. Still in the same position and not moving, apparently still in a deep sleep.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her. Leah carefully pulled the latch away, quickly pushed the door open and walked out.
