Chapter 2: The Last Side
George didn't listen to Zeus's words, his face was already flushed, and his small black bean-like eyes were surprisingly bright. He was about to shout at Zeus, when he unexpectedly heard a familiar sound of flapping wings.
He and Zeus, and Shag turned their heads almost at the same time, only Grandpa David seemed sleepy, and stood aside and yawned to himself.
Dura flew as fast as a visible white gust of wind.
She slammed straight at Zeus, causing Shag to take several steps back.
Fortunately, our Miss Dove was agile enough to come to Zeus, and she immediately stopped, like a graceful statue suspended in mid-air, with only one pair of wings still flapping.
"What's wrong?" Zeus asked aloud.
"Kasituo brought a large group of veterinarians and rushed to see the little white tiger, you should go and take a look!"
"Take this," Grandpa David, who had been silent, suddenly said, startling several people present. As he spoke, he stretched out the hand holding the gold flakes. "You're going to use it. ”
"You guessed it a long time ago, didn't you?" Zeus's tone seemed to be angry.
While his master was speaking, Dura had already flown over and picked up the thin relic.
Grandpa David just smiled slyly at Zeus, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into thin air.
——————————————
Back in the cell, it was packed.
Kasituo brought a dozen old veterinarians with white hair, and they were gathering around the little white tiger, sighing for a long time.
Seeing three animals coming in from outside the open prison door, Cassto was first startled, then he got down on one knee, pressed his right hand on his left chest, bowed his head, and said very respectfully:
"Great Holy Mouse, it is a great honor to meet you, Kathus......"
It wasn't the first time they had met, so before he could finish, Zeus pointed to the veterinarians and said, "Who sent them?"
"It's a general...... Oh, no, it's His Majesty the Emperor!" said Casticus, who of course had been specially ordered by the Great General.
But how clever our Zeus was, how could he not guess what was going on?
"Get up," Zeus said in a haughty gesture rarely seen on weekdays, and deliberately dragged his long voice. "What do the veterinarians say?"
Shag led his master, who was standing above him, and walked towards that side, and when the veterinarians saw Zeus, they all knelt down and saluted in unison—as if they had seen not a little mouse, but the Pope.
"Get up quickly," Zeus was still dragging his long voice, "can the little white tiger still be saved? He's a 'divine beast'! Don't look at him as a cub now, he will be the tiger king of Bengal when he grows up." ”
"The villain understands," said one of the oldest veterinarians, as he got up.
He was seventy or eighty years old, and he would not have been able to stand up on his own if he hadn't run over and hugged him. "But the villain had to tell the truth, the injury of the 'divine beast' was too serious, and more than a dozen bones on his body were broken, and what was even worse was that his skull was also broken. He still has breathing and a heartbeat, which is already a miracle!"
"Damn Arya, she deserves to go to hell!" Zeus roared. "Where is she now?"
Dura flew over, and Zeus understood that she had something to say, so he took the gold flakes.
"The Queen Mother is in the palace, and tonight she is going to hold a feast for His Majesty the Emperor who has killed the 'Divine Beast'. Although Dura had been by the side of the little white tiger before, the queen mother announced this decision at the end of the gladiatorial fight—before Zeus woke up.
"What?" Zeus was mad again, "What about the Tiger King?"
Kasto was eager to pull out the catapult that hung from his waist and shoot down the pigeon. But he also knew that she was the mount of the Holy Rat, and if he hurt him, the Holy Rat would never spare himself.
At this moment, a low, magnetic voice suddenly sounded outside the cell door behind them, and because the speaker was gasping for breath, he said in staccato terms: "If you go—go in time—you can still - look at her again!"
Zeus could hear that it was Tunai, and he had won a great victory in today's gladiatorial battle, so he was invited to the royal palace for a feast. How did he end up here now?
Cassto's face was extremely ugly, and he knew that Tunai had come to report the news.
As soon as Zeus saw Tunai, he seemed to understand something - his favorite lamb, Mary, had been slaughtered by Mendo, who had a grudge against Zeus, while he was busy rescuing the mother and son of the White Tiger. But strange to say, only Mary's body with her throat cut is left in Mendo's room, and the murderer Mendo is gone.
Dura told Shag to look for the other trustworthy pigeons in the city of Rome, and they flew all the gates of Rome, and every avenue and path around the city, but they did not see the giant with the broken arm.
"Where did you find the door, where is he, a villain, hiding?" Zeus's reply clearly annoyed Tournay.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Tunai had a deep friendship with Zeus, and with his personality, he would not kneel down when he saw an emperor or a pope, let alone a holy rat. "I'm talking about 'she', not 'he'!" in Latin, he and her pronunciation are different.
"You mean Mother Tiger King?"
As soon as Zeus's words fell, Castic pounced, and he drew his short knife and pressed Tunai by the neck, and if he said one more word, he would surely die.
But it was Dura's wings that moved faster than Casto's, and before Tunai could open her mouth again, she had already flown out of the prison door with Zeus on her back.
