Chapter 1363: It’s Difficult to Find People Who Think Alike

Old Time Tea pulled back its front paws and watched Famous softly fall to the ground. He said apologetically, “Famous, we are in a hurry. Please forgive me.”

Unfortunately, Famous had been sleeping and could not hear what he said. In addition, it was poor sleep that he was getting.

Old Time Tea looked at the sky and said to the other elfins, “It’s already quite late, and I’m afraid Zhang Zian won’t wake up for a while. Although the customers may not come into the store due to the impact of the insect disaster, the staff will come to work later. Boss Li from the snack store will also be sending some food... How do we explain the situation to them? We will have to make proper arrangements and perhaps a long-term plan moving forward.”

The other elfins also agreed because they had a dilemma in front of them—should they inform everyone else that Zhang Zian was in deep sleep?

If the staff found out, their first reaction would be to call an ambulance and send Zhang Zian to the hospital.

But could this solve the problem?

Zhang Zian was not naturally in a deep sleep. His dream state had been induced by an unknown elfin. In addition, he’d chosen to stay in the dream. This situation... Could modern medicine cure it?

It probably...wouldn’t work.

Therefore, the staff should not be allowed to know the situation that Zhang Zian was in right now. They must cover up this issue and let them think that Zhang Zian was all right.

Richard jumped a few times on the windowsill, looked into the distance, and said, “I seem to spot two of the staff coming over and heading in our direction. We will have to come to a decision as soon as possible.”

The staff walked up to the door of the store. If they found that the shutter door was not up, they would be somewhat confused. Then they would likely give Zhang Zian a call to ask about the situation.

Old Time Tea said, “Richard, you shall fake Zhang Zian’s voice. Just make up some reason. Tell the staff that you have something to go out and settle today and let them tend the store.”

However, what method should they use to inform the clerk? It must not be done in person.

“Hey.”

Pi hurriedly ran to the bedside, pulled Zhang Zian’s mobile phone out from under his pillow, gave a thumbs-up to everyone, and then picked up Zhang Zian’s hand. Pi used his finger to unlock the mobile phone via fingerprint identification.

The phone was unlocked and could now be used normally.

The screen still showed the “Pet Hunter” interface, but there was no light on the electronic map that represented the elfin to be captured.

The elfins knew that Zhang Zian used WeChat to contact the staff, but they didn’t know how to use WeChat, except for Sihwa.

Pi, holding the phone, staggered into the bathroom. The other elfins followed.

Sihwa was angry and felt wronged. It was obvious that she had not been informed of the situation at hand, but she had nevertheless been shouted at by Fina.

“Hey.”

Pi handed Zhang Zian’s mobile phone to her.

“What?”

Her face had an extremely p*ssed-off look to it. She glanced at the phone but didn’t pick it up. She crossed her arms over her chest. “This is that stingy guy’s phone. Where is he?”

Although she tried to pretend she was calm, all the elfins had poured into the bathroom together. She had never had so many elfins in the bathroom with her, and thus, she was somewhat flustered.

Her ears were, in fact, very sharp. She could hear the elfins talking outside. She knew that Zhang Zian had had an accident, but she didn’t understand how. He’d merely slept through the night, so what could have possibly happened?

Old Time Tea coughed and stood up. “There will time to panic in the future,” it said. “I will also explain things in detail to you then. It’s just that too many things are happening at once, and we have to deliberately conceal what is happening... Nevertheless, because of an unknown elfin, Zhang Zian is temporarily unable to wake up. In order to conceal this matter, please help us send a voice WeChat to the staff. As for what to say and how to say it, Richard will do the talking.”

Sihwa’s brow was furrowed. It was clear that the situation was urgent. As Fina’s face had a more serious expression than hers, she decided to reach out and take the phone. “Well, you have to go through all the details with me later.”

She found WeChat, found the group chat for the pet store, placed her index finger on her lips to tell everyone to keep silent, then pressed the voice button. She made a signal to Richard.

Richard cleared his throat and imitated Zhang Zian’s voice. “Ahem! The matchmaker of True Love Network informed me that I must go on a blind date, so today you can do whatever you want! I have hidden the door keys...by the front tire of the Wuling Hong Guang MPV. Go grab them and open the door yourself.”

Vladimir ran back to the first floor, found the door key, jumped out of the window from the second floor, hid the door key by the car’s tire, and returned to the room from the second-floor window.

Sihwa released her finger, and the voice message was sent to the group.

Wang Qian: “Wow! Master, since when did you sign yourself up on the True Love Network?”

Li Kun: “No wonder... The only thing that can make you abandon your business is dating, I guess...”

The staff laughed as they replied to the voice message.

“Those fools!” Richard shook his head regretfully and looked somewhat dejected. “Since it’s Zhang Zian, the idiot will definitely find out what is going on and respond with disgust...”

“Respond to what?” the other elfins asked inexplicably.

Richard patted his wings. “Why is it the True Love Network? Of course, it is...that there is only true love between the same sex! Whatever it is creating then is merely heresy!”

The other elfins didn’t reply to that.

Richard sighed and looked towards the sky. “There are so few who know the truth. What is the point of a broken back?”

Old Time Tea stepped up, wanting to correct Richard. It clearly remembered that the idiom talked about playing an instrument until the string was broken, so how was it now a broken back? Besides, who could continue playing an instrument when their back was broken? The person could not even live!

However, it felt that whatever came out of Richard’s mouth might not be good knowledge. Thus, it decided not to correct him and swallowed back the words...

The elfins rushed out and sat in a row by the windowsill on the second floor. They watched the staff look for the door key by the front tire of the Wuling, open the shutter door, and start the daily cleaning of the store.

Everyone except Sihwa, because she could not leave the bathtub.

However, the other elfins were anxious to see if the staff believed the voice message. In their rush, they left Zhang Zian’s mobile phone with Sihwa and did not take it away.

Sihwa returned to the main page and unexpectedly noticed a familiar icon on the screen.

It was the live broadcast app.

When had the petty guy downloaded the live broadcast app? He must be secretly watching the young ladies dance sultry dances. Who knew—he might have even sent them little rewards! How uncivilized!

She pouted, and suddenly she had a mischievous thought. She would quietly use his account to pay attention to her live room, and then she would use the balance in his account to buy gifts for herself. Given his character of being stingy with his money, he would definitely be very angry when he finally woke up!

The more she thought of this, the more she thought that it would be very fun. She tapped on the app with her finger, waited for it to start, searched for her live room number, and clicked on “Follow”...

Her fingers stopped because it showed “Followed.”

“Oh, at least he still has a conscience!” She was a little proud and happy. “Forget it. Then I will only reward half of my balance to myself... Now how do I reward myself?”

She had not sent rewards to others before. She switched to the “About Me” page to see how much money was available.

At the top of the page, she saw a very familiar nickname: [Watermelon].
