Chapter 76 Penguin's Help-Seeking Mishap
Gu Yiliu glanced at the system panel; the positive feedback rate was already 28%. She hoped to raise it to 50% before Dian Dian woke up. She then checked Dian Dian's upgrade progress.
This system upgrade is different from the last one. This time, Gu Yiliu can see the upgrade progress, just like the percentage of an application's installation package download.
The system upgrade installation package is currently showing a 35% progress. This 35% progress level remains unchanged for as long as she looks at the system panel.
It seems that updating the installation package for the new system is a bit of a hassle.
Just as Gu Yiliu was checking on Dian Dian's upgrade progress, the curator took her to the penguin enclosure.
"Comrade Gu, these are two penguins that our aquarium introduced last year."
Gu Yiliu was immediately drawn to the two penguins. They were dressed in black and white tuxedos with yellow scarves around their necks, their bodies round and plump, but their eyes were very lively. She hadn't expected the aquarium to have penguins. "Aren't penguins in Antarctica?"
The curator nodded. "Comrade Gu, have you heard of the Antarctic expedition team?" The curator smiled and said, "These two penguins were brought back by the Antarctic expedition team two years ago, and eventually ended up in our aquarium."
“Last year, our aquarium wanted to breed baby penguins, but the two penguins resisted. When we put them together, they even fought. After they recovered from their injuries, they started fighting again, so we haven’t been able to breed baby penguins yet.”
Just then, a penguin's call was heard.
"Aaaaaah!"
Gu Yiliu was taken aback. The curator smiled helplessly, "These are the ones. Every time someone comes, they make noise. I think they're probably cursing us, right?"
Gu Yiliu glanced at the curator, "How can you be sure it was an insult?"
That penguin was definitely swearing just now.
It's saying, "Pah! You bad guy, you're so stupid!"
The curator said, "When our staff come in, they bark excitedly and don't seem to like our staff. So they must be swearing at us."
Gu Yiliu nodded. “They are indeed cursing,” Gu Yiliu paused, “cursing you as bad and stupid.”
The curator wasn't angry, but rather puzzled, "Why did you scold me like that?"
Gu Yiliu looked at the penguin that was cursing, but the penguin turned its head away from them and refused to talk.
With a chuckle, Gu Yiliu looked at the penguin and gave the curator a look that said, "I want to help you, but I can't do anything about it."
"Comrade Gu, could you ask them for me if they'd be willing to tell me the reason? Is it because I've been keeping them together that they're scolding me?" the curator guessed to himself.
He couldn't think of any other reason besides this. He had never mistreated them and even worried that they wouldn't get used to it. Whenever they showed any unusual behavior, he would wonder if they were uncomfortable.
Gu Yiliu noticed that when the curator asked a question, the two penguins moved slightly to the side, as if they were eavesdropping on the curator's words.
"What are their names?" Gu Yiliu asked the curator.
"The taller one is called Nan Nan, and the slightly shorter one is called Ke Ke."
"Nan Nan, Ke Ke, the curator wants to know if you scolded him because he made you stay together?"
The two penguins moved, but walked inside with their backs to them.
He walked and shouted. He wasn't answering Gu Yiliu, but rather grumbling.
Coco is saying:
Ugh, it's so annoying! There are pesky penguins here, and pesky people too. Humans are so annoying!
The penguin named Nan Nan heard this and immediately started cursing.
"Aaaaaah!"
You're the annoying penguin! Having to stay here with a shorty like you is so frustrating! I don't want to be with you!
Gu Yiliu was taken aback.
The curator was already paying close attention, so he immediately noticed Gu Yiliu's reaction.
He quickly asked, "What happened? Did they say something?"
“Hmm,” Gu Yiliu hummed in agreement, “They’re complaining.”
"Keke said he hates Nannan and also hates humans."
"Keke hates Nannan?" The curator suddenly realized, "Then they are mortal enemies who hate each other, and I even tried to bring them together..." No wonder they hate him.
Upon hearing Gu Yilu's words, Nan Nan's unsteady steps abruptly halted, her bright little eyes now filled with shock.
This "Comrade Gu" can understand what the penguins are saying.
It slowly turned around and looked at Gu Yiliu.
I was looking forward to hearing something else from her.
Keke, standing next to Nan Nan, was equally shocked. It glanced at Nan Nan, wanting to confirm with her, but then it thought of how annoying Nan Nan was and decided not to ask.
She turned around, shocked, silent, and expectantly waiting for Gu Yiliu to say next.
In the curator's eyes, it was just that the two penguins suddenly turned around. Gu Yiliu knew what had happened.
She'll soon be earning good reviews. She smiled at the two penguins and continued.
"Nannan said that Keke is a short, stout gourd and that it doesn't want to stay with Keke."
Under the curator's astonished gaze, the two penguins nodded repeatedly and chirped happily at Gu Yiliu.
"Ahhhhh!" Comrade Gu, you can actually understand what I'm saying!
"Ahhhhh!" Comrade Gu, you can actually understand what I'm saying!
The unexpected scene left the curator puzzled, but he could tell the two penguins were very happy, and he was just about to ask them a question.
Then I heard Nan Nan call out again.
"Aaaaaah!" Comrade Gu, could you please ask the curator not to lock me and Keke together? I hate it, and we can't have children together!
Gu Yiliu looked at the emergency call that popped up and clicked to confirm.
Unable to have children? Is it what she thinks?
Gu Yiliu was about to ask when she heard Keke waddling over and calling out to her.
"Aaaaaah!"
Comrade Gu, could you please tell the curator that I am a female penguin?
"Then Nan Nan is also...?"
Gu Yiliu looked at the two excited penguins. She couldn't tell the difference between male and female, and since the two penguins didn't say anything, she just followed the curator's line of thinking and assumed that the two were one male and one female.
"Aaaaaah!" Yes, we are female penguins! We don't have chicks!
"Aaaaaah!" Yes, we are female penguins! We don't have chicks!
At that moment, the two penguins gave an unusually unanimous answer.
Gu Yiliu looked at the curator, "Curator, do you know what those two penguins were saying just now?"
The curator shook his head. He could only understand what Gu Yiliu was asking, but there was no key information, and he couldn't guess what it was.
Gu Yiliu asked him with a smile, "Actually, I'm very curious, which of Nan Nan and Ke Ke did the curator mistake for a male penguin back then?"
"Nan Nan is a male penguin." The curator said with certainty.
Gu Yiliu: "Nannan and Keke want me to tell you that they are both female penguins and cannot have chicks, so you shouldn't keep them together."
"You mean they are both penguins of the same sex? Both are female penguins?" The curator was taken aback. He really didn't know. When he brought them to the aquarium, they told him that the two penguins, one male and one female, could produce chicks and that he could try to breed them.
He looked at the two penguins, and sure enough, it was true; the blunder was huge.
They looked up and cried out to express their dissatisfaction.
"ah!"
The curator murmured, "No wonder, no wonder you're always fighting! It turns out we mistook your genders!"
"ah!"
The two penguins exclaimed in unison, and only then did you realize, no wonder we called you stupid!
"Ahhhhh?" Comrade Gu, could you urge him to agree to my request?
Nan Nan is urging me on.
As Gu Yiliu looked at the curator, the curator happened to hear the two penguins' disgruntled cries, composed himself, and looked up.
"Are you urging me to hurry up?" the curator asked Nan Nan.
Nan Nan turned her head and called out awkwardly.
"Ahhh!" You know I'm urging you, so hurry up!
The curator laughed. "I understand now. You're telling me to hurry up, right? If I'm right, can you nod?"
He explained to the two penguins, “I misunderstood your gender before. When I introduced you, someone told me that you were a male and a female, so I put you together in hopes that you would have a baby penguin.”
Nan Nan called out again, lowered her head slightly, and then raised it again.
The curator immediately felt that it was nodding at him, and his face lit up with joy.
"Comrade Gu, I'd also like to know if they want to go back to their home in Antarctica?"
Gu Yiliu looked at the two penguins, "Why don't you two tell it?"
The curator clearly saw the two penguins shaking their heads.
"Okay, okay!" The curator said "okay" three times. He would definitely take good care of them if they stayed at their aquarium. "I'll arrange your requests right away."
The curator left in a hurry, and Gu Yiliu also wanted to leave. The temperature in the penguin enclosure was low, and it would be very cold if you stayed there for too long.
"You don't have anything you want me to convey, right?"
Nan Nan nodded, while Ke Ke shook his head.
Gu Yiliu looked at it, and Nan Nan also looked at it.
"Do you have any other questions?" Gu Yiliu asked Keke.
"Ahhhhh! Comrade Gu, I need you to tell the curator: if there's a male penguin, send it to me so I can have chicks."
Gu Yiliu nodded with a smile.
"Aaaaaah!" Comrade Gu, I want it too!
Upon hearing Keke's request, Nan Nan was not to be outdone.
"Okay," Gu Yiliu agreed. These two questions would also garner 2% positive feedback.
Gu Yiliu felt this was an unexpected surprise.
"Ahhhhh!" Thank you, Comrade Gu!
Gu Yiliu smiled and said, "Thank you all too." The 4% positive feedback was really gratifying. "It's the first time that animals have called me Comrade Gu. Many animals like to call me Officer Gu."
"Ahhh!" I don't know how to address you, I learned it from the curator.
Nan Nan explained.
"I know." The two penguins had seen their own kind in Antarctica, but once they left Antarctica, they were in aquariums and didn't see many animals. Her story wouldn't reach her ears.
If she hadn't shown them that she could understand them, they probably would never have known about her.
Gu Yiliu bid farewell to the two penguins and was leaving the aquarium when he saw the curator arriving with his entourage.
"Comrade Gu, wait a moment." The curator called out to Gu Yiliu and quickly walked up to her.
"I have something else I'd like to ask you for help. I'm not sure if the information our aquarium has is accurate, but I'd like you to help me find out how old the two penguins are."
After he left, Gu Yiliu told him what the two penguins had asked her to convey, and then went back to ask him.
"Nannan is 5 years old, and Keke is 6 years old."
The curator gave an awkward laugh, and Gu Yiliu immediately understood what he meant.
