Chapter Forty-Eight: Bailey
My name is Itachi Treasure and I am a naturally beautiful and unique skunk.
I don't know why I'm fragrant.
I don't know why I'm white.
I don't know why I'm so smart.
All I know is that cuteness is a capital and a weapon.
And I have such capital and weapons.
So, humanity is willing to let me live.
Because I am alive and worth more than I am dead.
I am well aware of this.
Therefore, even if I lose my freedom, I don't panic at all.
Until...... I met the man I couldn't put into words.
............
In the empty weapons shop, Maud and Sunny watched the ferrets slumped on the counter.
Sunny said regretfully, "So this can't be eaten?" ”
"It's not a question of whether you can eat it, it's that if you eat it, it's a waste."
Maude broke open the ferret's legs and looked at it, and said thoughtfully, "It's a male." ”
Sunny looked at Maude suspiciously, and asked, "Does it matter if it's male or female?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I've considered the possibility of breeding him, but just thinking about it makes me feel troublesome, so I'd better sell it directly."
Maud explained, and suddenly something came to mind.
"Sonny, is the auction brochure still there?"
"Yes."
"Show it to me."
Hearing this, Sunny opened the cabinet and rummaged through it, and soon found the booklet.
Maud took the booklet and flipped through it.
Last time, because Sunny had no interest in exotic beasts, she turned it over quickly.
Maud peeked behind him, glanced over a few moments, and saw only a short two-line explanation.
"Found it."
Maud quickly turned to the page where the introduction of the stoat was registered.
There are no pictures, but a page full of introductions to stoats.
Maud immediately looked at the introduction, and after browsing it line by line, he realized that the stoat is a hybrid animal, so the body structure and coat color are different from ordinary skunks.
On the side, Sunny also leaned over to look at the introduction.
After a while, the two finished reading the introduction of the ferret.
It's probably a skunk with a different coat color and sweat glands than the norm, especially the sweat glands, which can exude a good aroma.
Because of this, the ferret has the value of being auctioned.
But creatures like this that can emit exotic fragrances are often the presence that perfume companies flock to.
However, the ferret was thrown into a bunch of pirates, and it was only for pirates like Abbe who wanted to get a pet on a whim to buy it.
"It's really not your average skunk."
Maud looked at the ferret on the counter as if looking at a brand-new quick knife.
"It's a shame to eat it."
Sunny was also looking at the ferret on the counter, as if looking at a bulging bag of money.
Feeling the gaze of the two, the ferret, who had given up struggling, was like a puddle of dead mud, unable to move.
"Sanny, treat this little thing first, save yourself from being crippled, and besides, is there a chain or something like that in the store?"
"Yes, I'll go get it."
At this time, Sunny also realized that the ferret was a mobile money bag, and she immediately became interested.
She went to the basement and pulled out medical tools and a bundle of knuckle-thick chains.
When he returned to the store, he first treated the weasel's injuries, and then tied the upper body of the ferret into a rice dumpling with a chain as if he was afraid that the ferret would run away.
By the time he had done that, more than half an hour had passed.
Sunny looked at the results and nodded with satisfaction, but also thought of a more important question.
"Where are you going to put 'Bailey'?"
In a short period of time, Sunny had already chosen a suitable name for the ferret.
Maud looked at the empty weapons shop and said, "Why don't you put it in the shop?" ”
"Nope."
Sunny shook her head and vetoed the proposal.
Maud pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought of a suitable place to keep it.
"Just hang it in the toilet, how about it?"
"Toilet ......"
Sunny thought about it for a moment.
Considering the aroma of Bailey's evaporation from the sweat glands, I immediately felt that this proposal was very good.
It's just that when you go to the toilet, you need to take Bailey out and bring it in, which will be a little more troublesome.
But compared to air purification, this is not a big deal.
"Well, let's put it in the toilet."
Subsequently, she made a direct final decision.
On the counter, the ferret, which has been compulsorily named "Bailey", can no longer see the future of white.
Why do you want to do this to me? 】
If there is hell, it must be here. 】
Three minutes later, Bailey was hung in the toilet, using it as a deodorant to moderate the air quality.
Maud then went to the room, put the weight on her lap, and then returned to the store, exercising while accompanying Sunny to the store.
It was only then that Sunny realized that she had asked about Bailey's origins.
A rare beast that was auctioned off fell into the hands of Maude, and it was also injured.
She was still curious.
"It's a long story."
Maud didn't hide it, and told Sunny everything that had happened that afternoon.
It made Sunny look at him and became a little strange.
"Bailey was a surprise, when I picked him up, I didn't expect him to be a valuable commodity, if I knew, I wouldn't have thrown it out at that time, but fortunately he finally returned to me."
Speaking of this, Maude was very emotional.
I almost missed out on a windfall.
As for the follow-up threat of Abbe and Gatsit, as long as they return to the store, they have Thor's thigh.
Sunny nodded and said seriously, "Thankfully." ”
Time passes slowly.
In the evening, the Saul arms shop ended its day's business without income.
Sunny goes to the kitchen to prepare tonight's meal.
Maud closed the door and cleaned the store.
After cleaning, Maud goes to the kitchen to help Sunny with her hands.
Although his cooking skills are not as good as Sonny's, the food he makes is still quite delicious.
"Don't forget to get one for Bailido."
Maud remembered Bailey hanging in the toilet, and couldn't help but remind him.
"Well, I almost forgot."
Reminded by Maude, Sunny took out two more slices of meat and a handful of vegetables from the refrigerator.
Maud glanced at the meal Sunny had prepared for Bailey.
It can only be said that in terms of food, the Sol Arms Shop is never ambiguous.
The two were busy in the kitchen.
On the other side, Thor, who had just woken up, walked downstairs.
With tiredness in his eyes, he went straight to the toilet.
Dozens of seconds later, a terrible scream came from the toilet.
"Help!!!"
The voice sounded as immature as a teenager, and the voice was full of panic.
Hearing a strange cry for help from the toilet, Maud and Sonny, who were busy in the kitchen, stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and then put down their things and went to the toilet.
The two rushed to the toilet as soon as possible, and saw that Thor was pinching Bailey's head with one hand, as if he would be in vain in the next second.
Bailey's frightened eyes looked at Sunny and he spoke with difficulty.
"Mom, Mom, help me!!"
