Chapter 4: Don't Be Sad 1
On a rare weekend, A Baibai and I were at home reading magazines.
Actually it was Abaibai. He suddenly saw the delicious pet omelette rice on the cover of the magazine "Pet Loves Food" and he drooled at the omelette rice.
"You just had breakfast, Abaibai is a little glutton!" I said, pointing at Abaibai.
"No, no, I'm the most invincible Abaibai, not a greedy cat!" Abaibai held the magazine "Pet Loves Food" in his cute mouth and pushed it in front of me with his nose that was as wet as a black grape...
"Look, Abaibai, mom has prepared lunch for both of us before going to work. You are a good dog and you are not picky about food!" I touched Abaibai's white, drooping, furry ears, looked at his black little eyes and said gently.
A Baibai tilted his head innocently, pretending not to understand.
"Hey, Abaibai, we have to be good children. So you have to eat whatever mommy cooks. Don't be picky about food!" I pulled Abaibai's little paw and squeezed it.
"No, I just want to eat omelette rice. The days without omelette rice are just dark days!"
A Baibai showed off his belly and rolled around on the sofa!
I looked at Abaibai's four little paws tumbling around in the air. If I didn't understand what he said, I really couldn't imagine a dog doing such a thing just to eat omelette rice!
"Abaibai, the lunch my mother left for me today is braised pork. Are you really not going to eat it?" I stood in front of the sofa, put my hands on my hips and looked at Abaibai.
"Just don't want it!" A Baibai grabbed the cushion on the sofa and shook his head vigorously!
"Abaibai, you're not a cat, don't do that!" I picked up the scratched cushion and threw it aside, then picked up the book "Love Food" and pointed at the cute pink font on it and said to Abaibai, "Look, this is an activity to care for stray dogs! Omurice and the like are just decorations!"
"If you don't want it, then don't want it. The days without omelette rice are so dark!" Abaibai showed his pink belly and kicked his paws to show his displeasure!
"Hey, this is an activity to care for stray animals. You only care about eating. Why don't you think about how pitiful those animals are? You are the messenger of the pet god, but you don't have any sympathy for those poor stray animals who have no food to eat and no family warmth?"
I put my hands on my hips and yelled at Abaibai!
Fortunately, the reputation of the pet god had a restraining effect on Abaibai. He flipped over from the sofa and sat on it like a little adult. Then he looked at the kitchen with a helpless look and said reluctantly, "Let's eat braised pork!"
I looked at Abaibai helplessly. Alas, maybe only a messenger among dogs like it can do such a strange thing. In the past, I really couldn’t imagine that a dog could make such a human-like posture.
I sat on the sofa, picked up Abaibai, stroked the fur on its head, and said to it gently: "Abaibai, you have to be good. Your life now is really, really happy, because there are many small animals in this world who have no owners. They can only look for food in the garbage dump by themselves, and they are often chased away by others. Your life now is really, really happy!"
At this point, I thought of the way my aunt educated my little cousin. She also hugged him and said to him: "The good life we have now is hard-earned, so cherish it..."
So, now I treat Abaibai like my own child?
I remembered that Bai Xiaocong said not long ago that I could take A Baibai away, but he must have visitation rights. Haha, why do they feel more and more like a divorced and separated couple?
"Hey, Xiao Xiaoduo, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about my stupid former master?"
I looked down at Ah Baibai 's raised little head, his eyes slightly narrowed... as if he could see through people's hearts...
“No…No…”
I'm not thinking about white onions at all, it's just an association!
"Hey, you're blushing!" Abaibai's naughty voice rang out again. I looked at him sticking out his tongue with his eyes curved, just like a middle-aged woman reading gossip!
"Who's blushing!"
“Ding dong ding dong!”
Just when I was trying to find an excuse, the doorbell rang!
Great, finally someone can relieve the temporary embarrassment...
I looked out through the peephole, but the excitement in my heart was replaced by an even greater embarrassment...
Although there is not much that can be seen through the cat's eye, the boy standing outside the door, wearing a golden pullover with black stripes, a hat, a pair of large, black, thick-framed glasses, and a very white face, isn't he the Bai Xiaocong that I just thought of?
I opened the security door and just in time saw Bai Xiaocong looking up.
Even though the thick-framed glasses covered most of his face, you could still see his thin and fair face. He was wearing a pair of pants of the same style as his pullover, like a Garfield cat...
"Hi, Bai Xiaocong, why are you in my house?" I pretended to be calm and looked at Bai Xiaocong, but I don't know why, when I saw him, I always felt my heart beating faster.
"Give me your cell phone!" Bai Xiaocong stretched out her hand to me.
"It's in the living room, come in first." I stepped aside to let Bai Xiaocong enter the room, then closed the door.
I took Bai Xiaocong to the living room, and A Baibai hid himself behind two cushions.
"Abaibai, you are so stupid. Your tail is exposed!" Bai Xiaocong reached out and pulled the almost invisible tip of Abaibai's tail.
"Humph!" A Baibai turned around and sat on the cushion like a mountain king, and said in a self-righteous manner: "I will not go home with you. Even if you have visitation rights, I don't want to see you! I've seen it on TV. Children also have the right not to see their father!"
"Ah Baibai, what are you talking about!" I felt my cheeks getting hot. Oh my god, what would Bai Xiaocong think of me if she thought I taught Ah Baibai this?
"I'm not here to see you. Xiaoduo, give me my phone and I'll install an app for you!"
I obediently handed the phone on the coffee table to Bai Xiaocong, and then I saw Bai Xiaocong holding my phone in his right hand and taking out a small black box from his trouser pocket with his left hand. There was a data cable on the small box, and he connected the data cable to my phone.
Afterwards, I went to pour a drink for Bai Xiaocong, but no matter what I asked, Bai Xiaocong just lowered her head and looked at my phone seriously. Then she pressed something on the opened small box with her hand. I walked closer and saw that there were densely packed buttons inside the opened small box.
It’s really magical!
Unconsciously, I sat next to Bai Xiaocong and watched him operate carefully. However, before I saw anything, he stopped the action, put away the data cable and the small box, and there was a dog paw icon on my phone!
"Okay!" said Bai Xiaocong.
"What is this?" I picked up my phone curiously and clicked on the dog paw icon.
"Awoo!" A voice like a puppy's pampering sounded, and my phone screen turned into a strange map-like picture.
On the map, there are many points moving, but in different colors, some are green, some are yellow.
I gently tapped a small green dot, and a line of words appeared on it -
"No. 8, Agate Street. Owner: Ma Jianguo. Pet: Niuniu, a Samoyed."
"The green dot you clicked now means there are pets with owners around. As long as it's green, it proves that they are safe. The yellow dot means there are no pets with owners around now."
I looked at the screen and Bai Xiaocong's voice rang in my ears.
“Wow, this is amazing!”
I looked at Bai Xiaocong who was sitting next to me. The sunlight shone on his fair face. His beautiful eyes were fixed on the screen. His shallow but still rosy lips were opening and closing as he spoke. My heart was beating faster and faster, and my face was getting hot.
God, Xiao Xiaoduo, what are you thinking about? You want to save stray pets, not just talk about love!
"Then...what does this mean?" I said to Bai Xiaocong, suppressing the anxiety in my heart.
Bai Xiaocong pulled the phone from my hand, and tapped the phone a few times with her right thumb. The phone screen, which had been monotonous just now, was instantly filled with various overlapping images.
As I watched the images, I listened to Bai Xiaocong's explanation in my ear: "This mobile phone software is based on the connection with major network terminals and surveillance cameras in various places. Everything is automatically linked. Then, the system transmits the received data to the database of the mobile phone terminal. The database is sorted and the following information is obtained."
As I listened to Bai Xiaocong's endless explanation, I suddenly felt that his image was very tall. I didn't understand these terms, but I felt that they were very attractive when I heard them from his mouth.
"This map radiates from the line from your home to the college, including your neighborhood and surrounding communities, schools, hospitals, parks, shopping malls, supermarkets and other places with surveillance video. The information included includes: pet loss, pet abuse, pet abandonment, etc., as well as information on all pet hospitals and pet shelters. Of course, the functions of this software are far more than these, but this can only be unlocked after you use it."
Bai Xiaocong said this and returned the phone to me.
It’s really, really powerful!
"I've never used such a powerful pet software before. Bai Xiaocong, you are really a very smart and powerful person."
Oh my God, I don’t know what words to use to describe my current mood. It’s like the satisfaction of realizing my most dreamed wish. I feel like I’m flying.
I threw away my phone and grabbed Bai Xiaocong's hand.
"Thank you, thank you very much for making such a great software for me!" I held Bai Xiaocong's hand and kept bowing, because I really didn't know how to express my gratitude to Bai Xiaocong .
"It's really, really... Hey, Bai Xiaocong, why are your ears red?"
When I bowed again, I accidentally saw that Bai Xiaocong's ears were red, his head was slightly lowered, and he looked very uncomfortable...
"Bai Xiaocong, aren't you feeling well?" I thought about that day at Bai Xiaocong's house. Although he was very smart, the environment in his home really gave me the impression that he lived alone and wanted to die alone...
Oh my god, is it true that Bai Xiaocong has some incurable disease? That's why...
"Bai Xiaocong, are you feeling unwell somewhere? Why are your ears so red?"
Bai Xiaocong withdrew his hands and put them in his pockets.
"Ahem, maybe I haven't had enough rest recently, so I feel a little uncomfortable. Ahem, I'm fine!"
"Oh, it must be because of the software you helped me make. It's my fault. I'll go buy some medicine right now!"
"Well, no need for that. It's just a minor problem. I'm much better now! Really..." Bai Xiaocong said with a slight cough.
"Ahem, love always comes so unexpectedly..."
"Abaibai, what are you talking about?" I turned my head to look at Abaibai, and saw that it squinted its eyes and looked at Bai Xiaocong, or to be more precise, it looked at Bai Xiaocong's hand...
Boom! I just felt a flash of lightning and thunder in my head!
Just now... I seemed to... hold Bai Xiaocong's hand...
Oh my God, what did I do? I actually held a boy's hand!
"Haha, this is love, Bai Xiaocong, Xiaoduo feels that I am like your child, so what kind of relationship do you have? Haha, it's a love relationship!"
Shut up, Abaibai!
I rushed to Abaibai, who was jumping up and down on the sofa like dancing, and covered his mouth!
Ahhh, God, please turn back time to one hour ago and let nothing happen again!
"Awoo, awoo!" At this moment, a shrill dog barking sounded, and the entire screen of my phone turned red!
"Oh, what's going on?" I let go of Abaibai and looked at Bai Xiaocong with my phone.
Bai Xiaocong frowned and said to me: "Red alert!" Bai Xiaocong tapped twice on my mobile phone screen, and then a video appeared in front of us.
In the video, a group of children were shouting and throwing small stones at a dog with black and yellow fur. The dog was already injured, but it didn't run or bark!
"This red alert will be issued if there are animals in danger in the area," Bai Xiaocong explained.
"Oh my god, that's too cruel!" I watched the video on my phone, picked up Abaibai, and said to Bai Xiaocong, "Let's go save it!"
