Chapter 38: The Forgotten Corgi

Outside, the sky was overcast, and the drizzle had been falling since the morning, past noon until now.

At this time, Chubby Dun and his sister had already changed from school to school, and the rain in the sky still showed no signs of stopping.

Xu Jie and Mo were lazily lying on the cushion, their eyes closed.

It rained for a day, and Mo, who wanted to leave early, had to stop, after all, no cat likes its fur to get wet.

No one can do anything about keeping a cat in the sky, and Grandma Fujimoto also said that this is the fate of the big black cat and the Fujimoto family.

However, the ink who stayed here still knows how to be a guest, except for the living room and Xu Jie's nest, the rest of the Fujimoto family is not a step, which makes the Fujimoto grandmother who stays at home can't stop praising it for being both human and polite.

People don't go out much on rainy days, and Grandma Fujimoto, who stayed at home and was bored watching variety shows, kept an eye on the time, while secretly recalling what kind of ingredients were left in the refrigerator, and then turned them into recipes one by one, so that her son and daughter-in-law, who had been busy all day, could come back and eat ready-made meals.

Until Grandma Fujimoto finished dinner, the rain outside not only did not stop in the slightest, but also tended to get heavier and heavier.

The little chubby dun who had already done his homework was waiting in the entrance wearing a raincoat and holding an umbrella.

Because when they went out this morning, the Fujimoto couple only brought an umbrella, and with the current rain outside, only from the parking space to the apartment, one umbrella for the two of them is not enough.

Soon Junko, who was guarding the window, sent a signal to his younger brother, and Xiao Fat Dun stepped on his little rain boots, took the big umbrella in the house, and went out to give the umbrella to his parents.

As soon as they parked their car in the apartment's parking space, Mr. and Mrs. Fujimoto saw their youngest son braving the heavy rain to bring them an umbrella, and Mrs. Fujimoto, who was moved, hugged him and kissed him several times on the head.

When the family of three walked back with umbrellas, they suddenly saw a man in a gray suit lying there on the lawn at the door of the apartment.

Although he couldn't see the face clearly in the heavy rain, Mr. Fujimoto felt that the figure of the person who fell to the ground looked familiar to him.

So he strode over with an umbrella, holding an umbrella to shield the man from the rain, then squatted down and lifted the man's face to take a look, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Mr. Sawada, how could it be you, how do you feel now?" ”

Mr. Sawada, who was in a state of confusion, did not give Dr. Fujimoto any reply, and Mr. Fujimoto hurriedly gave him the most basic examination.

The gentleman's pulse and breathing were normal, but he was unconscious and his skin was a little cold from the rain. The only thing that is abnormal about him is the strong smell of alcohol.

At this time, Mrs. Fujimoto and Kenta also came over, and Mrs. Fujimoto held an umbrella to shield her husband and Mr. Sawada from the rain, and asked worriedly, "Guangyang, Mr. Sawada, is there any problem with him?" ”

Mr. Fujimoto, who had just finished examining the drunken ghost on the ground, said, "He just slept here drunk, so there shouldn't be any big problem." ”

Saying that, Mr. Fujimoto tried to help his neighbor up, but this Mr. Sawada's weight is not light, and he is almost unknown when he is drunk now, so he will not cooperate at all.

So Fujimoto soon discovered that he couldn't lift this gentleman up on his own.

Mr. Fujimoto, who had no choice, had no choice but to let his son go to the apartment building and call the administrator to come and help.

Thanks to the efforts of the two big men, he finally succeeded in helping Mr. Sawada, who was soaking wet, to his door, but no matter how they knocked on the door outside, there was no one inside.

Just as Mr. Fujimoto raised his hand to them and wanted to try again, the caretaker suddenly said, "I remember, I saw Mrs. Sawada leaving with her luggage and the child early this morning, saying that she was going back to her parents' house to stay for a few days." ”

It turned out that after the husband and wife quarreled, the wife took the child back to her parents' house, no wonder Mr. Sawada was so drunk.

But what if you can't get into the house now? Mr. Sawada is so soaked that if he doesn't dry his clothes and keep warm, he will catch a cold even in the summer.

Mr. Fujimoto, an old neighbor for more than ten years, couldn't bear to watch Mr. Sawada get sick, so he had to press his middle part hard with his thumb a few times.

The intense pain really brought Mr. Sawada to his senses, but looking at the straight look in his eyes, I'm afraid his mind is still in a state of confusion.

Mr. Fujimoto put his body against his old neighbor, waved his hand in front of him and said, "Sawada, are you sober?" We're going to take you home now, but there's no one in your house, do you have the keys with you? If there is, open the door quickly. ”

Mr. Sawada, who was in a daze, didn't know if he understood Mr. Fujimoto's words, but he first smirked before saying, "Oh, open the door, yes, open the door." ”

After saying that, he used his hand to pull the door of his house, which of course could not be opened. So Mr. Sawada began to lose his temper and kicked his foot in the lower right corner of the door of his house.

Mr. Sawada, who was full of anger, kicked really hard, and he kicked a fist-sized hole in the thick door of their house.

Seeing this, Mr. Fujimoto and the administrator hurriedly stopped him, and Mr. Fujimoto, who had no choice, had no choice but to say to Mr. Sawada: "Mr. Sawada, is your key in your pocket?" Can I help you take it out and open the door? ”

With great difficulty, Mr. Sawada's consent was obtained, and Mr. Fujimoto hurriedly took out the key to open the gate, and together with the piper, he put Mr. Sawada inside.

As soon as Mr. Fujimoto entered the house, he was startled to see a small Welsh corgi with thick limbs, standing in the entrance with his ears standing and staring at them.

Mr. Fujimoto knows this dog, which was raised by Mrs. Sawada last year and once brought it to their shop for grooming and epidemic prevention.

At this time, the dog looked at them very unkindly, because it could see that his owner was in a very wrong state.

The Corgi is a small dog, short but strong, endurance and courage, with a docile personality but very loyal to its owner.

This kind of dog has a strong sense of responsibility and a stronger sense of protection, and once the owner is in danger, they will desperately rescue them regardless of their lives.

So in front of this kind of dog, you'd better not do anything unfavorable to its owner.

As a veterinarian, Mr. Fujimoto is of course familiar with the temper of corgis, so he recalled it in his mind and tried to say, "Ko, isn't it?" Your master is drunk, and we send him home. ”

As he spoke, Mr. Fujimoto slowly squatted down, then slowly stretched out a hand, sent the back of his hand forward, and stopped when he was still about a meter away from the corgi.

This is a more correct way to meet a dog that is not yet familiar with it, and to keep a distance from the dog with the back of the hand, is to ask the dog to smell his own smell, and to show that he is not hostile.

When the corgi named Ke saw Dr. Fujimoto's movements, he stuck out his head and sniffed the back of his hand, then recognized his scent and began to abandon his guard and wagged his tail at Dr. Fujimoto.

Seeing this, Mr. Fujimoto finally breathed a sigh of relief, you must know that even if it is a small dog, the combat effectiveness of the corgi should not be underestimated, not to mention that this is still a corgi dog dedicated to protecting the owner.

Seeing her husband and Mr. Sawada's help into the back room, Mrs. Fujimoto and Mrs. Kokenta, who had been following them all along, also came in to see if they needed help.

Because she is often led by the hostess to the store for grooming, Mrs. Fujimoto is much more profound in the dog's memory than Mr. Fujimoto, who took off his white coat.

So after seeing Mrs. Fujimoto, this corgi not only wagged its tail at her, but even barked a few times in a flattering manner.

But it was these dog barks that stopped Mr. Fujimoto, who had come out to look for a towel, because the dog's barking was too weak.

In the instinct of a veterinarian, Dr. Fujimoto came over to examine Xiao Ke, and as soon as his hand touched the dog's abdomen, his brow furrowed.

Dr. Fujimoto touched it a few times in a row before he sighed and said, "The belly is all attached to the ribs, and I don't know how many meals I haven't eaten, Rie and Kenta will take Xiao Ke to our house to eat something." ”

Mrs. Fujimoto smiled and looked for the corgi and motioned for it to follow her.

But every time the corgi came to the door, he retreated and refused to step out of the house.

Seeing this, Dr. Fujimoto, who is familiar with the habits of dogs, said: "It is not worried about Mr. Sawada in the room, and wants to guard the owner here, so he refuses to leave." Since that's the case, then please Jiantai, go home and bring the dog food over and feed it to Xiao Ke. ”

When Little Fat Dun heard the order, he hurriedly stood up and quickly ran downstairs.

Grandma Fujimoto was placing dishes and chopsticks on the dining room table at home, muttering quietly while putting them away: "Why does it take so long to go out to deliver an umbrella, what is this family of three rubbing outside?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her grandson push open the door and rush in, then carry a bag of dog food and run out again.

Seeing this, Grandma Fujimoto hurriedly called out to him: "Kenta, what are you doing here?" ”

Although Little Fat Dun didn't look back and heard the words, he still said: "Uncle Sawada's corgi hasn't eaten for several meals, and my father asked me to bring some dog food to feed the dogs." ”

"The Sawada family? Oh, it's the uneasy neighbor who quarreled last night, and the dog doesn't know how to feed, so irresponsible what kind of animal to raise. Grandma Fujimoto, who was once again dissatisfied with her son's neighbor's house, said.

It was Xu Jie, who was lying on the cat shelf, stood up at this time, and he also knew the corgi in the mouth of the little fat dun, and he lived upstairs and downstairs, even if it was an animal, there was always a time to meet.

It said that it had not seen the corgi being led out for a walk by its owner in the past few days, and it turned out that it had been forgotten at home.

Xu Jie, who was forced to be stuffy at home for a day because of the rain, decided to follow Xiaochubby Dun over to have a look.

As soon as it moved, the ink naturally followed, and then even the golden retriever Ah Zhong followed behind them and walked out, and finally even the black crow, which had always held its own identity, fell on Ah Zhong's head and planned to go over together.

Grandma Fujimoto, who had already set the dishes and chopsticks, found that the four animals were lining up to go out, and she put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand and said: "It's going to be eaten, why are you still running around, if the food is cold for a while, people will have stomach pain when they eat it, and cats and dogs will also be uncomfortable." ”

Junko, who had just brought miso soup from the kitchen, saw this and said, "I'll go check it out too." ”

He put down the soup bowl in his hand and walked out.

Seeing this, Grandma Fujimoto angrily untied the apron tied to her waist, put it on the chair and picked up the bowl to eat herself, but she still couldn't rest assured that she would go out.

So she had no choice but to take the key and follow out the door.
