Chapter 5
The living room was extremely quiet, with only one person and one bird staring at each other silently.
Bai Gaoxing sympathized with his nominal master and no longer had any thoughts of finding some nighttime entertainment, so he jumped to his side and symbolically patted him with his wings.
How should I put it? It’s really not easy.
There was a hint of surprise on Li Pu's face. He had never properly kept a pet before, so he was a little surprised by the parrot's initiative. After being stunned for a while, he tentatively stretched out his fingers to touch the fluffy head.
Bai Gaoxing narrowed his eyes and let him touch him, and even adjusted his posture to allow himself to be touched to his heart's content.
In a flash, another hour passed and it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
Bai Gaoxing only felt the warm touch on his head suddenly disappear, and when he looked up again, Li Pu had stood up from the sofa.
Was he going to get something... a beer, maybe? A plate of crayfish? He was looking forward to it.
But unexpectedly, Li Pu just went to the dining table, brought over the rice bowl and water bowl, and placed them on the tea table.
"Dabai, come here." Li Pu stretched out his hand to him.
Bai Gaoxing didn't know what the man wanted to do, so he obediently walked slowly to his arm, trying not to hurt him.
But then he was also placed on the tea table.
After doing all this, Li Pu went to the balcony to close the curtains and get a glass of water. When he came back, he had a trash can in his hand.
Could it be that he was taking out the trash in the middle of the night...? Before Bai Gaoxing could finish his guess, the trash can was placed under his butt.
??? What is this for?
I turned around and heard Li Pu say, "Dabai, don't run around at night. It's best to go to the toilet here."
"Good night."
Then, he watched Li Pho's figure getting farther and farther away, and disappeared around the corner.
The lights in the living room went out.
"Click." Then there was the sound of the door closing.
From this angle, the tiny sliver of light you can see is a closed bedroom door.
After a while, Bai Gaoxing came back to his senses and was in disbelief.
No, it’s only nine o’clock! What kind of work and rest schedule do old cadres have? ? Are you so relieved that you don’t put him in the cage? And what’s the meaning of this trash can? Is the “pull” he thinks of? ?
For a moment, Bai Gaoxing didn't know which to complain about first.
But in the end
After all, it was impossible for him to fall asleep at this time, not to mention that he had already slept for several hours in the afternoon. Bai Gaoxing adjusted to the darkness for a while, then jumped back to the sofa in the neon light outside the window.
He just discovered that the TV remote control at home was on it.
Bai Gaoxing successfully found the remote control, turned on the TV, and then pressed the mute button the moment the screen lit up, and started watching silent TV.
It’s true, after being bored for a long time, even flashy commercials become interesting to you.
As he watched, Bai Gaoxing had a deeper understanding of Li Pho's popularity - this was the nth advertisement he had seen Li Pho's face in. People on the Internet said that he became famous at a young age and had a smooth career path. Maybe it was just a blessing from God.
Unfortunately, I am a bit autistic.
After an unknown amount of time, Bai Gaoxing fell asleep. Before going to sleep, he subconsciously glanced at Li Pu's room, guessing that he had gone to bed early.
Little did he know that Li Pu had not fallen asleep for a long time after returning to his room. After tossing and turning, he turned on his mobile phone again, opened the forum for parrot raising strategies, and could not help but buy a few things online.
…
Bai Gaoxing's first day as a parrot passed like this.
When he woke up the next morning, he was awakened by another bird.
To be precise, a group.
At first, Bai Gaoxing didn't realize that it was the birds talking. He just thought it was the old man and old woman who got up early and cursed in the street, and the sound shocked the whole street.
Until later, some sturdy and beautiful magpies landed on the balcony railing and laughed.
"I just eat your food, so what? Are you going to bite me?"
“That’s right!”
"You little idiot locked in a cage, I am happy for you to eat your tapeworms!"
“That’s right!”
This was already a very harsh scolding, but the next second, an unbearable scolding came from downstairs:
"Fuck you, come down here and I'll break your head! You ****!"
"You won't live long if you dare to eat my food!"
"I******!!!"
It's almost to the point where it can be coded.
Bai Gaoxing tilted his head and watched for a while before finally realizing that the initial sound came from the magpie's mouth.
Amazing! He can understand birds talking!
Bai Gaoxing readily accepted the fact that he had never expected that there would be such a benefit after becoming a parrot. He was a bird, and other birds were also birds. It was reasonable for birds of the same kind to understand each other's language!
Bai Gaoxing flapped his wings and flew through the curtains, walked to the balcony, and looked directly into the eyes of the giant magpie outside the tightly closed glass.
"...Hi?" He greeted.
The fat and chubby Big Joy glanced at him with disdain, "Tsk, another one begging for food at the hands of humans."
Bai Gaoxing remained calm and laughed, "What about you? Are you a thief who steals other people's food? A robber?"
Daxiqie was furious and was about to swear a few more times, but a shout came from downstairs: "Get out! Get out of the way! Don't come here!"
Bai Gaoxing heard it clearly, this time it was a person shouting. All he could say was that the object really resembled its owner.
The magpies flew away one after another.
Bai Gaoxing glanced downstairs. Li Pu's family lived in a large flat, about the seventh or eighth floor. From this angle, he couldn't see who was cursing downstairs. He could only see a small park with beautiful plants and a small square with a fountain not far away, and there were vaguely many people walking around.
“…”
The episode just now reminded him to go out.
Trapped in this house, unable to freely access the internet and talk, he could obtain very little information. So far, he only knew that he was in Jiangcheng, living in the home of the world's most famous movie star, and other than that, there was not much useful information.
If I get out, I might be able to find a way back in.
But how could he get out... Bai Gaoxing walked back to the living room from the balcony and ate some bird food on the tea table.
Bai Gaoxing waited from around seven to around eight o'clock, but he didn't hear any sound of anyone getting up in the bedroom. He wondered how Li Pu could stay in bed so early. After laughing in his heart for a while, he decided to check out the site.
This is where he will live in the future, which is equivalent to his home if you round it off. It’s not too much to visit his own home, right?
Bai Gaoxing flapped his wings and landed again, exploring the floor one step at a time.
Li Pu's house was very big. Judging from the number of doors, there were at least four bedrooms. The balcony had large floor-to-ceiling windows, and he could even see the sparkling swimming pool outside. The whole house faced north and south, and the light was excellent. Even if all the other doors were closed, it would not affect the lighting. Yes, except for the living room and the dining room, the rest of the doors were closed. I don't know if Li Pu was afraid that he would go in and mess around, or if he just had this habit.
The table was cleaned up completely, and any plan to sneak in some leftovers was completely shattered. It seemed that Mr. Li was a very clean person. Bai Gaoxing glanced at the table from a distance and walked to the refrigerator in disappointment.
Well...that doesn't work either.
The refrigerator was very high and he had no leverage, so it was obvious that he couldn't open it in his current state.
Bai Gaoxing thought about it and decided to practice flying when he had nothing to do.
The furniture now seemed several times bigger to him, and standing on the sofa was like standing on a small balcony. Fortunately, he was not afraid of heights.
Bai Gaoxing stared at the empty floor and began to flap his wings.
The broad, beautiful wings are lush and will lose feathers if they move too much. He was glad that only some feathers on the chest of this parrot were plucked, and the flight feathers were not affected at all.
Although he inherited the memory of the original parrot, Bai Gaoxing still felt that it was difficult to use his body because it was not his own. His large wings were always out of control and his claws would reach for things subconsciously. He was especially afraid of hitting a wall if he couldn't stop. He flew seven or eight times and crashed midway. Fortunately, he didn't hit a wall, but he still fell dizzy and turned around.
Bai Gaoxing was exhausted.
He spread his wings and lay paralyzed on the ground, his hairy chest puffing up and down, but he still didn't give up practicing this skill. What if, he meant what if, he really went out in the future and encountered wild cats and dogs, he had to be able to run away.
This time, he put aside all distracting thoughts, flapped his wings faster, and looked firmly towards his home in the distance.
There is a long distance from here to the gate, and his goal is to fly back and forth smoothly.
Bai Gaoxing took off suddenly and flew towards the door fiercely. He was getting closer and closer to the door, and when he was about to succeed, he heard a "click" and someone opened the door from the outside.
Someone came in? ? Who? ? !
Bai Gaoxing panicked and began flapping his wings uncontrollably, disrupting his rhythm, and his head dived into the newcomer's arms.
“…Gah.”
There was a faint fragrance on the visitor, I couldn’t tell what it was, but it was very intoxicating.
Bai Gaoxing was intoxicated for less than two seconds, then he sneezed three times in succession.
A-choo, the perfume is poisonous.
"Dabai?"
Li Pu didn't expect Dabai to come up to him, and there was a trace of surprise on his face. In just one day, Dabai actually got so close to him... He quickly raised his hand to hold up the big parrot that was sliding down, and his heart was filled with tenderness.
Bai Gaoxing was still sneezing and shaking his head with a wheezing sound.
He glanced at Li Pu with tears in his eyes. His sweaty forehead and clothes proved that he had gone downstairs to exercise. He had been busy all morning, and was afraid of making any noise, and in the end he would have to tell others that he was not at home???
Very depressed.
Bai Gaoxing glanced at Li Pu's hands, which were empty, and became even more depressed.
Don't even buy some breakfast.
“Sneezes!”
Li Phou noticed the abnormal phenomenon of the big parrot sneezing frequently, and quickly put it on the top of the cage. He looked down at himself and didn't remember what he had been stained with during his morning run.
Fortunately, Dabai stopped quickly and looked at him with his dark eyes.
Li Pho filled up the remaining half of the bird food and then went into the bathroom to take a shower.
Bai Gaoxing raised his paw and tickled his still itchy nose, then ran to the porcelain bowl, picked out a few of his favorite melon seeds and ate them, waiting for Li Pu to come out.
Soon, the bathroom door was opened.
A faint scent of shampoo wafted in, and Li Pu walked to the living room while drying his hair. He was wearing a thin bathrobe with traces of wetness on it, and the belt around his waist was not tied properly, revealing his chest and abdomen.
Li Pu has an excellent body shape, with abdominal muscles and beautiful muscle lines that are quite aesthetic, neither thin nor exaggerated. It is obvious that they are maintained through long-term exercise.
He looks gentle and refined, but I didn't expect him to be the type that shows off his muscular body when he takes off his clothes.
"~~~~" Bai Gaoxing tilted his head and a whistle sounded out.
Li Pho paused while wiping his hair.
He grabbed the towel and turned around slowly, only to see the big white parrot looking at him innocently, as honest as a sculpture.
