Fluttering, banging.

Listening to the sound of a flock of birds of different sizes and types chirping and flapping their wings and flying out of the store, Dr. Xiao Da, the acting shopkeeper of D&K, immediately smashed his head on the counter and let out a long breath:

"Finally gone...... These guys are so noisy, every second they stay in, I feel like I've lost ten days of life!"

"Can you feel it in ten days?" Li Meng raised his head and looked at Xiao Xiao in surprise.

Because she had just used the freshness charm, the smell in the shop was very refreshing, and the little witch did not leave the shop in a hurry, but leaned in front of a cage, grabbing a peanut and teasing a mouse the size of the tenth moon. The little mouse grabbed the cage with its front paws, and the tip of its nose pressed against the little witch's hand, moving rapidly, and his face was full of longing.

"Don't you understand the exaggeration?" Xiao Xiao didn't look up, but pillowed his head on his arm, turned his face sideways, looked at the little witch, and emphasized weakly: "Ten days is an exaggerated rhetorical device...... This is one of the basic ways to use the language, and you still need to learn it. ”

Before he could finish speaking, with a fluttering sound of flapping wings, the green-skinned parrot with the lead flew back and, after circling for a week, landed in front of the counter, its beak curled just on the tip of Dr. Xiao's nose.

The wizard was startled, his head was pushed back hard, and he almost broke his neck before he could take a breath, and he bared his teeth in pain, and screamed in pain.

"Ahh

There is a shiny brass clasp on the leather bag, which is fastened tightly.

Without bothering the young wizards to help, the green-skinned parrot lowered its head, bent its beak and opened the brass buckle with a few nimbly stirring on the leather bag. Then it put its beak in, picked and picked for a moment, and fished out a quill.

Red, white, pink, green, yellow, cyan, etc., the colorful quill pens vary in length and length, and are gathered into a large handful, and then tied with a red ribbon, looking like a blooming fluffy flower, which looks particularly festive.

"Ahem," the green-skinned parrot coughed dryly, bringing its wings to its mouth.

After seeing that everyone's attention was focused on it, the parrot unhurriedly showed another small piece of paper under its wings—this piece of paper seemed to be glued under its wings—and then stared at a pair of small round black eyes, word by word, and solemnly read:

"The winter wind blows, the war drums beat, who is afraid of the opening of the shop!"

"The goods are not afraid of the dark, and the good news is flying all over the sky!"

"The First University Ornithology Association congratulates Ding Ding Finance and Insecticide Company on its establishment, and has a special gift!

A strange and strange greeting was read by the green-skinned parrot, and the sonorous and powerful young wizards were stunned for a moment.

"First University and the Ornithologists' Association?" the little witch asked in a whisper after leaving the cage and listening to the green-skinned parrot's greetings.

Jiang Yu sighed, did not bow his head, but subconsciously teased the green silk hanging down his ear, and replied softly: "I'm not a parrot, how do I know...... This kind of thing, you should ask your family. ”

Li Meng scratched her ears and felt that this answer was very reasonable.

On the other side, after handing the gift to Xiao Xiao, the green-skinned parrot stretched out its paws to ask for a red envelope, while remembering the bird food he wanted: "I just said that I forgot something before...... Isn't your store an insecticide company? Its main business is insecticide! Insects are good food for birds, and we are not picky eaters! So, there is actually bird food in the store, right?"

This peculiar reasoning caught Xiao Xiao off guard, and he held his glasses for a long time before he thought of a suitable statement:

"The word 'insecticide' in our name doesn't refer specifically to killing insects, but to all pests in general, or the word 'bug' has a richer meaning. ”

"Besides, the store has just opened, and it is still in the trial operation stage, whether it is finance or insect control, it has not yet been officially launched."

As he spoke, Xiao Xiao had already stuffed a few wrapped red envelopes into the leather bag on the green-skinned parrot's ankle, and thoughtfully helped it buckle the copper buckle. At the end, he carefully patted the thick bulging leather bag, and added emphatically: "...... I promise, if there are any killed bugs in the store, we will definitely send them to you after the captain of the Crime Hunting Team has blown them up!"

The green-skinned parrot raised its paws, glanced at the leather bag that had been buckled with the copper buckle, nodded with satisfaction, and reminded with dissatisfaction: "Hmm...... Fried bugs are not healthy, we are old, and we are not good at this mouthful. Just mix it with rice vinegar cooking wine, and it would be better if you could add some mustard. ”

Ho, I didn't expect these birds to be food lovers?!

The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth twitched, and he didn't have the patience to entangle the strange taste of the bird, and nodded vigorously: "No problem, it's all right!"

The green-skinned parrot finally stopped being noisy, quacked, flapped its wings, and glided and took off after a few steps with the help of the wooden table top of the short counter. Without looking back, he flew straight out of the store, chasing after his friends who were already far away.

It wasn't until the emerald green figure completely disappeared from sight that Xiao Xiao muttered, "This time...... It's really gone. ”

Li Meng listened to it on the side, and covered her stomach with laughter.

Then she kicked and trotted, ran to the door, stepped on the threshold to look left and right, turned back to Xiao Xiao and said with great certainty: "Let's go!

Xiao Xiao sat back in his seat behind the counter and smashed his head on the table again.

Next to him, Jiang Yu hesitated for a few seconds, and finally couldn't help but ask, "I've always been curious before...... How do these birds know your shop is open? How do you recruit them? ”

"I, do I have the ability to provoke these little ancestors?" Xiao Xiao didn't raise his head, and complained sullenly: "Except for our store master, who will provoke a flock of birds!"

The manager of the small shop is Zheng Qing, as the representative of the Guilty Hunting Team, he was 'arranged' undisputedly in this identity.

Thinking of his captain's various unreliable plans and behaviors, the staff officer of the Guilty Hunting Team couldn't help but murmur: "I must propose a criticism meeting in the evening...... Absolutely, Zheng Qing must not be allowed to continue to mess around next time. How can there be a rule for opening a store to send invitations to a flock of birds! Even if everyone is a wizard, there is no such reason. ”

"And yesterday, he didn't come to Qingqiu Hall last night, and he did a very inauthentic thing in this matter!" Li Meng was worried about the absence of a public scholarship student yesterday, even if Zheng Qing had provided a very reliable and reasonable reason, she was still not satisfied.
