Chapter 89

It's not an illusion, Li Pho is really a bit weird.

An hour later, Bai Gaoxing confirmed this conclusion.

Putting aside the unusual behavior of Li Pho not touching his head, now even eating became strange.

Today's breakfast is steamed buns with porridge. The steamed buns were made by Li Pu himself yesterday, with fresh meat filling. The porridge was made from the rice that had just been washed, with glutinous rice and lotus seeds added, and it was very fragrant. ▽

There was nothing wrong with all this, but what was problematic was that Li Pho did not stop him when he rushed over and grabbed Xiao Long Bao.

In the past, Li Pho should have stretched out his hand to block him, instead of just watching him quietly from the side like he is doing now.

Quietly, look at him.

Hey... You really make me feel a little scared...

Bai Gaoxing raised his tongue, and the tip of his tongue touched the slightly cooled skin of the steamed bun, but his eyes involuntarily turned to the man at the table and looked into his calm and deep eyes.

He held the small steamed bun in his mouth, not knowing whether to eat it or spit it out. He just stood there with it in his mouth like a fool.

After a while, Bai Gaoxing chose to give up. He looked at Li Pu cautiously and put the buns back on the plate.

I always feel that if Li Pho doesn't become more aware of this, he will become even more abnormal.

Little did he know that this conscious behavior would cause a huge wave of uproar in Li Pu's heart.

There are so many things he usually ignores. Li Pu thought, now that he has calmed down and carefully observed Dabai, he found that many times, this parrot's behavior is very...human?

Looking at the snow-white parrot in front of him, Li Phou found a suitable adjective.

Just like cats and dogs can read the owner's eyes, but Dabai is even better than that. After all, cats and dogs have to listen to the tone of their owners' voices and judge the owner's mood through different tones; while Dabai obviously only looked at his expression.

Can small animals really do this?

Li Pu recalled Doug in "The Cute Pet Diary". Doug was also a very smart military dog. He could respond to a whistle or a gesture from Zhang Junjun, but that was still different from Dabai. Doug had undergone a lot of training, while Dabai...

At this time, Le Pho finally realized something unusual.

For example, when you talk to Dabai on a daily basis, Dabai can always answer you promptly, even if he only uses simple and short words.

That is obviously "the ability to think".

But we can't judge so easily.

Li Pu knows that any skill can be learned through repeated teaching, just like many Internet celebrity pet dogs can answer their owners' questions by pressing buttons. The most common one is the Border Collie, which is said to have an IQ like a six or seven-year-old child and is described by fans as "a spirit".

Nowadays, children aged six or seven can indeed operate electronic products very skillfully.

——Last night, Li Pu frantically studied the knowledge of online live broadcasting and read the works of many popular bloggers about cute pets. He compared the intelligence of their pets and tried to find reasons to convince himself.

There is everything on the Internet, a husky that can do housework, a ragdoll cat that can soothe children, a golden retriever that can pick up express mail, a rabbit that can change TV channels...

He did find a pet that could operate the phone, a Border Collie that could rub the record button with its nose, adjust the lens, and then perform for the camera.

But, I can’t type.

It will not upload links either.

They will not use electronic products every time when the owner is not at home...

Li Pho's mind kept jumping between "normal" and "abnormal", and in the end, he still couldn't be sure.

The Parakeet is a very smart parrot. Now there is no evidence to prove that it cannot do those things. Simply defining it as "abnormal" will only cause more trouble for him and Dabai.

Thinking of this, Li Pu picked out the small steamed bun again and said, "Dabai, eat it."

The sun is rising from the west! ?

Bai Gaoxing was stunned, and then his eyes became bright.

Here it comes again, that human feeling.

It's perfectly normal for pets to react when they're being fed, but because he watched those videos last night, no matter what Baymax does now, he feels something is wrong.

This is very unfair to Baymax.

Li Pho put the back of his hand against his forehead. If he thought so, maybe he was the one with the problem?

For example, he can no longer distinguish between fantasy and reality, and everything is just his imagination...

At this moment, Li Phou felt confused.

Even in the movie he was most immersive in, it was never so chaotic.

While Li Pu was still sorting out his confused thoughts, Bai Gaoxing had already finished eating the steamed bun.

belch.

Eat well.

Bai Gaoxing straightened his chest, which was puffy and somewhat blocked his view.

But he was so happy, this was the first time Li Pho let him eat so freely!

Bai Gaoxing chuckled happily and wanted to move closer to show affection, but as soon as he raised his head, he saw Li Pu's deep eyes.

Still watching him.

…What happened?

Bai Gaoxing suddenly felt a little frightened and couldn't help but take a few steps back, thinking frantically in his mind whether he had gotten into trouble recently.

But, no!

Bai Gaoxing thought about it and couldn't remember what he had done to deserve a beating. Could it be because he had secretly eaten snacks before? But it was too long ago, so it couldn't be possible, right?

He looked at Li Pu suspiciously, but found that the man seemed to be in a daze again.

It’s so weird. It’s really weird.

Bai Gaoxing began to recall Li Pu's condition over the past two days. He was still normal yesterday, but something became wrong starting this morning.

All of a sudden, all the details emerged in Bai Gaoxing's mind, giving him an uneasy feeling.

Could it be that...something really went wrong with Li Pho?!

Bai Gaoxing's eyes showed more worry, and he immediately decided to wait for the man to take a nap before going online to check. However, the next second, he saw Li Pu stand up and said as he walked, "Dabai, come here."

The man picked up the script from the coffee table and sat down in a corner of the sofa.

An all too familiar scene.

The boring and dull time came back to Bai Gaoxing like a tide. He was stunned for a long time. When he came to his senses, he heard Li Pu calling him several times.

no.

Bai Gaoxing was instantly filled with endless fighting spirit, and his feathers puffed up.

No matter what, he couldn't let Li Pho go back to isolation!

…

At the same time, Lei Li and Mei Youshu were making the final arrangements before their business trip.

"…I don't have any important arrangements recently. Please follow the original plan. If there are any temporary notices, please remember to follow up."

Seeing the young man nod, the woman glanced at her phone and said, "If you have any questions, you can call me anytime. I won't say anything more."

"Okay." Mei Youshu said, "Don't worry, Sister Li, I will definitely not lose the chain."

In the past, such an answer would have been met with praise from Lei Li, such as "I know you are reliable", but today, the woman looked solemn.

"Actually, there is one more thing..."

Mei Youshu was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized the importance of the question and asked with a serious expression, "What is it? Do you need my help?"

"...It's about Li Pu." Lei Li paused for a while before speaking. She looked at Mei Youshu, with a complex emotion in her eyes, "You also know his situation. Recently... I always feel that he is not in a good condition."

Sounds like just speculation.

But Mei Youshu knew that Lei Li always spoke based on facts, and when she said this word, it meant that this could no longer be described by "feeling".

Maybe it's really not good.

Mei Youshu frowned slightly, with worry in his eyes, "Didn't Doctor An say that everything is fine?"

Lei Li looked helpless. "Who knows? No one can tell if it will recur. What I was most afraid of before was this kind of situation..."

She warned: "Remember to pay attention to Li Pu's movements. I have already told him that he must call you if there is anything."

"I understand." Mei Youshu nodded, "I'll contact Brother Li if I have nothing to do in the next two days."

"Then I'll leave it to you." Lei Li's gloomy expression eased a little, and she sighed softly, "I hope I'm overthinking..."

…

"Baymax, say 'hello'."

In the quiet living room, Bai Gaoxing looked at Li Pu who was talking to him with a confused look on his face.

It seems like... I want to teach him something to say.

But he had already learned this word, right?

Bai Gaoxing responded tentatively: "Hello?"

"goodbye."

"goodbye!"

"Good night."

"Good night!"

Simple everyday language is what he says every day.

Bai Gaoxing repeated what Li Pu said, and then he heard him say, "Red carp, green carp, and donkey."

What the hell?

Bai Gaoxing's eyes gradually widened, and he gasped: "Ga-ga-ga!"

No one knows how funny it is to hear this sentence from Li Pu's mouth!!! Especially when he has a cold face and looks very serious.

Bai Gaoxing was laughing so hard that he could hardly breathe. The sound of his laughter was so penetrating that it echoed in the living room.

But people can't tell that the parrot is laughing.

Li Pu stared at his parrot for a long while. He could only see that it was quacking randomly, as if it was playing, or as if it was trying to learn the sentence but was having difficulty uttering the words.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Bai Gaoxing was really tickled by the joke. He rolled on the ground, panting and gasping for breath. After a long while, he trembled and uttered a word: "Donkey~~"

Li Piao supported the emperor's edict.

Is it possible that he has been too tense lately?

But... some memories that I thought were normal became extremely clear at this moment - the spirituality of Dabai when filming, the way Dabai operated the screen in the surveillance, the French that Dabai spoke after the award ceremony...

It seemed to be proving all the time that it was different from ordinary parrots.

Li Pu's brows wrinkled again, and he looked at the ground blankly, trying to find evidence of Da Bai from those memories. Then he sat quietly on the sofa, looking absent-minded like a statue.

Bai Gaoxing had finished laughing.

He flapped his wings and stood up. Seeing that Li Pu was in a daze again, he could only look around and think about what to do.

In the residual light, he caught a glimpse of the oil stains on his chest feathers.

Well, this is because I was too hasty in eating the steamed buns just now and it’s not very convenient without hands.

Then take a bath.

Bai Gaoxing looked at Li Pu again and flew to the bathroom.

Because the weather was getting colder, he only wetted his cat in the "Cute Pet Diary" and never cleaned its feathers carefully again.

Bai Gaoxing went straight into the bathroom, where there were fragrant toiletries that smelled countless times better than hand soap - after parting with Li Pu for five days, he liked this smell more and more.

Besides, winter was coming, and he, as a bird, didn't want his feathers to get wet too many times, so he just washed them thoroughly this time.

Thinking of this, Bai Gaoxing stood on the shelf fixed on the tile wall and began to choose from several bottles and jars.

living room.

Li Pu pressed his tired brows. The more he thought about it, the more he remembered how incredible the things Dabai did every day were.

But he just regarded this as the parrot's learning ability.

But if not, what could it be?

No matter how reluctant he was, Li Pu's thoughts could not help but start to slide in a strange direction.

The jokes from netizens, such as "My pet has become a spirit" and "I really want my pet to become a beautiful woman or a handsome man", gradually filled his mind. Especially after he found the screen recording of Dabai's live broadcast last night, his thoughts were no longer blocked.

Could it be... a person?

The moment this thought came to his mind, a loud noise came from the bathroom, interrupting Li Pu's thoughts and bringing him back to his senses in shock.

He seemed to hear a pile of things falling to the ground, mixed with a cry of pain.

…

The world was spinning.

This was Bai Gaoxing’s first feeling.

Then the pain came again.

He only remembered that his body felt heavy, and then the pile of bottles and jars fell down for some unknown reason.

The little shampoo he used was very lethal. He wanted to escape to the side, but he had no strength to do so.

Well...when Li Pu comes and sees this, he won’t beat him up, right?

Bai Gaoxing felt guilty for a moment, looked up at the warm bathroom light above his head, and squinted his eyes slightly.

Oh, it’s so bright.

And his feathers, they were hit so hard, they must have lost a lot of them?

Bai Gaoxing stared blankly at the hand that appeared in front of him.

It's a human hand.

Long, white, healthy nails with a hint of pink.

But it definitely does not belong to Le Pho.

He remembered that Li Pu's hands were bigger and thicker, and when he touched his head, there was an irresistible force.

Then the legs and feet.

He had the urge to move, so the fingers of his hands pressed on the ground trembled.

He tried to lean back, and the scene in front of him also receded.

From a perspective, this is no one else.

Is it... him? `

Bai Gaoxing was stunned and tried to raise his other hand, but his movements were slow and sluggish. He tried to bend his legs again, but there was no response.

The body seems to be out of control.

Is this normal? I've been a parrot for too long... If the flexible claws are hands, then what are the wings?

Bai Gaoxing's thoughts stopped at this moment, and a bitter feeling surged from his heart. The fear and grievance that he had no one to tell found an outlet at this moment and gushed out.

What is this…?

Why now?

When he realized that he couldn't go back, when he accepted that he couldn't go back, when he went from being afraid at first to having to get used to it... the world played such a joke on him again.

Bai Gaoxing raised his still trembling hands in front of him, his eyes fixed on them blankly.

The patterns on his palms were undoubtedly human, and under the warm light, every part looked particularly beautiful. They were something he had already found unfamiliar, and they belonged to his own body.

This was not a dream, as he had experienced many nights before, when he had dreamed of himself becoming a human being, only to wake up happily and find that it was just an empty nightmare.

The boiling water drops fell into the palm of his hand, and Bai Gaoxing suddenly felt that he was not that strong. At this time, he should smile happily.

Then he said to Li Pho: Look! I'll scare you!

Oh, right...Le Pho.

Bai Gaoxing blinked and suddenly remembered how to explain the problem to Li Pu.

He looked towards the door and tried to make a sound, but at this moment, his tongue and throat seemed to be sluggish and he could only utter simple syllables.

But at this moment, a familiar figure appeared at the door.

…

Li Phou looked quietly at the situation in the bathroom.

After hearing the noise, I was worried that Dabai might have knocked something over and got hit, so I immediately came over to check the situation.

But what I saw was this scene.

A snow-white, naked boy sat on the cold floor, looking at him with a pair of red eyes stained with tears.

It's really white.

The snow-white hair did not look out of place with the equally glowing white skin, and it made the eyes look darker and the corners of the eyes look redder.

When the boy saw him, he showed a happy expression and moved his lips, but no sound came out.

Li Piao also blinked.

"Ha..." He uttered a meaningless sound.

I have to admit that perhaps the concerns of people around me are justified.

There might really be something wrong with him, but he just doesn't know it.

Li Pu immediately took out his cell phone, called his assistant, and pressed his forehead, "Da Shu, help me make an appointment with the doctor."

"Ah?" The assistant's voice was a little flustered, but he quickly regained his composure, "Okay, Brother Li. It's still the psychology department, right?"

"No," Li Phou turned his back and said expressionlessly, "It's psychiatry."
