The one fighting with the shark was a purple sea jellyfish, dragging its long tentacles like lace skirts, and fighting the shark bravely.
Its beautiful outer umbrella with purple stripes had a conspicuous red cross scar, and it looked like a human.
Maybe they were acquaintances, and they recognized each other, so they fought in the sea.
Lu Yao lay on the wall membrane and watched for a while. The small jellyfish with a diameter of less than 30 centimeters actually fought back and forth with the giant shark weighing several tons. It was too magical.
The sea jellyfish is poisonous and its sting is very painful.
The great white shark had a grim face and sharp teeth, but it was just a big sandbag, and there were red spots on its forehead.
After the initial panic, the customers in the store sat down, petting cats and watching the excitement, and no one wanted to intervene. Lu Yao
walked to the door, put on flippers, avoided the fighting sharks and jellyfish, and swam towards the garbage mountain with the machine on his back.
There was too much excitement to watch, and business was more important.
Compared with the initial garbage mountain, the garbage mountain has almost shrunk by one size, not only contributing hundreds of thousands of popularity points to the store owner, but also near the direction of the closed fish school, even a small piece of seabed has been vacated, and some benthic organisms have begun to appear under the flat mud and sand.
After a while, there may be corals, seaweed, anemones, and benthic fish, and it will become as lively as the coral reef forest on the side of the furry shop.
A transparent moon jellyfish slowly floated in front of her eyes. Lu Yao stared at it for a while.
The moon jellyfish is not poisonous and looks very beautiful. There is a circle of white four-leaf clover-like patterns in the middle of the transparent umbrella. The tentacles expand and contract with the umbrella. The swimming posture is elegant and beautiful, like a cloud slowly floating across the sky.
If the background is not a messy garbage mountain, it must be more beautiful.
She carefully avoided the moon jellyfish and changed direction to continue picking up garbage. A flower hat jellyfish dragged its short tentacles with gorgeous colors and floated in front of her eyes, a cute egg yolk jellyfish floated in front of her, and a rainbow jellyfish floated by... Lu
Yao stopped. I don’t know when, the jellyfish surrounded this seabed.
Various rare jellyfish that live in different sea areas and depths appeared at the same time in the garbage mountain open space of the garbage sea, and usually kept passing by her eyes in relays.
Jellyfish are invertebrate coelenterates, with only a nervous system, no brain structure, and most of their bodies are made up of water.
Most jellyfish tentacles contain toxins, which is an important means for them to hunt prey.
If you are bitten by a real jellyfish, it is no joke.
Logically speaking, such animals do not have thinking, and their actions are entirely driven by predatory instincts.
The jellyfish that appeared in the garbage sea frequently swam past Lu Yao, and they always managed to retract their wandering tentacles just right so as not to touch her.
Lu Yao observed for a while, and could not use telepathy on creatures without brains, so she had to bend over and continue picking up garbage.
These jellyfish seem to like this seabed a little bit. If they can be cleaned up, maybe they are willing to stay here.
The system noticed that Lu Yao was suddenly full of energy. Recalling the store upgrade diagram she drew two days ago, it couldn't help asking: [What do you want to do now? ]
Lu Yao sucked a broken TV shell into the machine. When she heard the mechanical sound that the score value was +800 points, she replied nonchalantly: "Nothing, I just think these jellyfish are cute."
The system was silent for a few seconds, and then spoke in an accusing tone: [Shopkeeper, I saw the upgrade diagram. Is it a bit too much? 】
Lu Yao sucked up several large batteries buried in the mud and said casually: "One million popularity points for renovation is not too much?"
System: [... That's for the safety of the store. 】
Lu Yao: "Then I am also expanding and improving the store to the maximum extent allowed by the mission reward. Can't you afford it?"
System: [...]
These words coming out of the store owner's mouth are particularly insulting.
The system, with backbone, shut up silently.
It! Can! Afford! It! Afford! It! Afford! It! Affords! It! Achieves!
Successfully helped one hundred drowning people leave the garbage sea, mission completed! Reward popularity value 100,000 points, free store upgrade once! 】
Lu Yao was delighted, "Oh, the mission is completed. But I just had a new idea. I'll give you the blueprint after I fix it."
System: [……]
[Lu Yao's furry shop is very popular with customers and has been upgraded to a three-star shop, with a reward of 50,000 popularity points. Please keep up the hard work, shop owner! ]
[You have a new mission! Help 500 drowned people leave the garbage sea, and you will be rewarded with 100,000 popularity points and the right to enter and exit the garbage sea! ]
!!!
The right to enter and exit the garbage sea?
This is what she has been looking for - a way to get out of this sea area, and it turns out that you need to complete tasks to obtain the right.
Lu Yao's previous exploration of the border confirmed Qingmei's statement that they were trapped in the sea.
This sea area is like a huge cubic water prison. Normal marine life is not affected. The only difference is that the autistic fish are kept in a certain area.
The furry shop that appears in this area is naturally isolated from the normal world.
The system did not reveal until then that the autistic fish here are called sea drowners.
Why do sea drowners come to the garbage sea?
What is the world where people live normally outside this sea area?
Why is there so much garbage in this sea area?
Who is the "mother" called by the humpback whale?
Lu Yao wants to know a lot of things. It is hard to say whether it is experience or intuition. She feels that if she solves these problems, she will not be far from the ultimate mission of this world.
After several revisions, Lu Yao handed the final drawing to the system in the evening.
The system quickly scanned the various upgrade details she marked, and said in a tense and unhappy voice: [You really went too far.]
Lu Yao lowered her head to pack up her things, ignoring its accusation, "I'm really looking forward to this upgrade, but I also think it's very challenging. Is it difficult for you too?"
The system choked, not wanting to lose face in front of the store owner, and said stubbornly: [...It's difficult for you, but it's just a matter of minutes for me. Just wait!]
Lu Yao tried his best to suppress his smile, "Okay, then I'll wait and see."
Five minutes later, the system told Lu Yao listlessly that the units being upgraded this time were too complex, and the maintenance time would be doubled. During the maintenance period, the Furry Shop would not be open.
The maintenance would start in the evening and end at six o'clock tomorrow afternoon. By that time, it would be time for the Furry Shop to get off work, so it would be better to close for a day. Lu
Yao found Qingmei and told her to take a rest tomorrow.
Qingmei was horrified, thinking something had happened in the store.
She felt comfortable working here, with food and drink, and could pet cats. She didn't want to go back to the sea to be a "ghost fish". When she learned that the store was closed for renovation and expansion, she slowly let go of her worries.
Qingmei was quite curious about the renovation process, as it would only take one day to complete the renovation. She asked Lu Yao but didn't get a specific answer, so she thought she would come and take a look tomorrow to find out.
The furry shop closed, but Lu Yao was not idle.
With more and more shops, she had to deal with many trivial matters every day. In order to save time, she had lived in the lounge of the nail salon for a long time.
The rental house she rented had been vacant for a long time, and she had no time to deal with it.
On her day off, she called the landlord and decided not to renew the lease.
After quickly completing the return procedures, Lu Yao called a moving truck to move all the luggage and belongings in the rental house to the shopping street.
The community where the rental house was located was relatively old, but the security facilities were still sound and the rent was cheap. She lived here for a long time.
When packing her luggage, she found a lot of old things. The most outrageous thing was that there was a piano in the utility room.
A nearly new black piano was hidden under a dust sheet. The logo on the back of the piano body showed that it was a very expensive brand.
Lu Yao had no impression of this at all and could not remember when she bought such a piano.
The guy in charge of moving the goods saw her surprised face and confirmed: "Is this piano yours?"
Lu Yao was also confused. When she moved in, there were no other furniture in the house except a few sets of old wooden cabinets and a plank bed.
But she really couldn't remember when she bought the piano, so Lu Yao was going to call the landlord.
The system quietly popped up, "This system has a record, and the piano is indeed the owner's property."
Lu Yao listened and still called the landlord.
Finally, after confirming that the piano was indeed Lu Yao's, she asked the mover to lift the piano down and send it to the shopping street first.
Lu Yao spent half a day sorting out the things. There were too many things, and she didn't need most of them.
She packed up three cartons of comic books and novels and gave them to Harold and Si Jin. She also moved some nail materials and nail polish stored at home to the nail salon.
Several large boxes of unused kitchen utensils and bowls and some miscellaneous idle items that had only been tried were made into low-priced blind boxes and sent to the blind box store.
On the contrary, Lu Yao picked and chose some old things and put them all in her room in the nail salon.
In the end, the only thing left was the piano, which would take up space in any store.
Lu Yao wiped it clean carefully, and spent another thousand popularity points to have the system tune the piano.
The piano was very beautiful, placed under the eaves, with a black body and black and white keys interlaced. Lu Yao pressed a few notes at random with her fingers, and her face suddenly froze.
She stood up straight, looked down at the keys, pressed them one by one, and the chaotic notes gradually formed a strange minor tune.
Lu Yao: "Could it be that I could actually play the piano before the accident?"
The system secretly exhaled: [Well...it's very likely.]
Lu Yao wanted to say something, but a Maybach drove off the main road and drove straight into the shopping street.
Following behind was a Cadillac and a medium-sized white delivery truck.
The Cadillac is Ji Feiming's favorite car, and the delivery truck behind him should have come with him.
The driver of the Maybach in front was also an acquaintance. Jing Yuxi got off the car first and noticed the piano beside Lu Yao. "Shopkeeper, are you going to open a musical instrument store?"
Lu Yao shook his head in amusement. "I just found some old things at home and I don't know where to put them."
Jing Yuxi looked around the piano and tried the sound. "This piano is not bad. If you don't want to keep it, I can find someone to buy it. The price is absolutely reasonable." Lu Yao's
fingers groped along the edge of the piano cover and shook his head without thinking. "Forget it, I think this piano is good too, so keep it."
Jing Yuxi saw the owner's eyes looking at the piano and knew there was a story behind it. Unfortunately, she had other things to do today and couldn't have a long chat with the owner and listen to the past stories.
But before talking about things, she had to go to the furry shop to recharge.
I haven't seen the stupid glue cub for a few days, and I miss him so much.
"You came at an unlucky time today. The furry shop is closed for renovation." Lu Yao's voice seemed particularly ruthless at this moment.
Jing Yuxi scratched her hair, "...then let's talk about business first."
"Shopkeeper, the goods we ordered have arrived." Ji Feiming immediately took the opportunity to interrupt. Lu
Yao turned his head and glanced at the small white car, which was full of new furry things. "Send it to the blind box store and let the tiger cub teach it first."
The frame unloaded from the car was covered with cloth, and there was a faint crisp and pleasant sound coming out. Jing Yuxi was curious: "What is that?" "
The new clerk of the furry shop." Lu Yao explained, "Aren't you going to talk about something?"
"Oh, yes, I almost forgot." Jing Yuxi slapped his head and quickly pulled his thoughts back.
A sea of garbage.
The drowned fish woke up and swam to the furry shop out of habit.
It has become a regular place for them to relax.
Seeing the "Closed for Renovation" sign on the door, a group of autistic fish were stunned.
"How can this store be renovated? Where is the renovation going? There's no one there."
"Is it closed? No, how can I live without my second-hearted cub?"
"Did it lose money and can't continue to operate?"
A fish turned over on the spot, spitting bubbles and mumbling: "Without the Furry Shop, my sweet coffee, my adhesive tape, my fraud, my happiness... all are gone..."
The little manta ray squeezed in from behind the school of fish and shouted: "The owner said that the store will be closed for a day for renovation and expansion. How can it be closed? Don't spread rumors."
A fish whispered: "But there is no one in the store, and there is no sign of renovation..."
The little manta ray turned around and took a look. The store was indeed quiet.
The autistic fish completely absconded. One fish, two fish, three fish, all began to turn over...
Little Manta Ray: "..."
The sea area began to emit an unknown atmosphere. Among the autistic fish that turned over, the great white shark and the purple sea jellyfish started the "morning friendly exchange activity" again.
A day and a night passed, and the little manta ray woke up and opened his eyes wide.
Is this the furry shop?
How did it become like this?
The little manta ray swam around, but still felt that the scene in front of him was incredible.
Obviously, there was nothing yesterday, no construction was seen, and no sound was heard. How could it change so much overnight?
Is the real identity of the shop owner actually a witch living on the seabed?
At this time, the autistic fish also woke up.
One by one, they turned over their stomachs and swam towards the furry shop out of habit.
Halfway through the swim, some of the fish stopped and suddenly opened their eyes wide like angry pufferfish.
Is this a furry shop?
It turns out that it is really closed for renovation, but the "renovation" the owner refers to is not the same as their understanding of "renovation".
An anemone fish asked with bulging eyes, blowing bubbles: "This is renovation, who renovated the rough house into an underwater park?"
