Chapter 115 Jinjiang Debut
In front of Bai Mian, Huang Rui used her cell phone to make an appointment with a psychiatrist for the next day, then waved goodbye to everyone. After watching her leave, they returned to the restaurant.
Lame Brother went home, and the old couple and Yin Yin were still there to eat with Bai Mian. The staple food tonight was eight-treasure porridge, and there was only one dish, which was green bamboo shoots with shrimps. Because Bai Mian took a risk, Gao Jin was upset at home and had no mood to cook, so today's dinner was a little simple.
The porridge was still hot in the pot. No one had touched it before Bai Mian came back. Now that Bai Mian was back, everyone finally sat down. Weng Xuhua served everyone a big bowl of porridge. Bai Mian's bowl had especially much. The porridge was very thick, and a little white sugar was sprinkled on it. It tasted fragrant and rich.
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening when they had dinner. Bai Mian looked at the moon outside the window and suddenly felt at home. Although she had not yet recovered her previous memories and could not remember her identity in the fairy world, at this moment, the people in front of her were her family.
After dinner, Bai Mian returned to his room as usual, and the system's voice rang in his ears:
"Report to the host, you have gained 40 points of good karma today, and the current good karma value is: 360."
Although Bai Mian only took the pulse three times today, the system also took into account the help he gave to Sister Yang last night, so it was 40 points of good karma. Bai Mian nodded and said nothing more.
After washing up, Bai Mian picked up her phone and looked at the background data. After a day of live streaming, she gained another 50,000 fans. Now she has 550,000 fans. She has been able to steadily increase her fans these days. It seems that she has already gained a certain fame on the Internet.
Bai Mian read for a while and then fell asleep. She slept well that night and was awakened the next day by the chirping of birds outside the window. The birds gathered at her window, chirping, and no one knew what they were discussing. Bai Mian thought they were cute, so she went downstairs to get a few biscuits, crushed them and put them on the window. The birds swarmed over and soon ate up all the biscuit crumbs.
There were still a lot of people waiting downstairs. Gao Jin made some delicious toast with raisins and chopped nuts in it. Que Ge came to the store an hour early for this.
Bai Mian ate a few slices of bread and couldn't bear to see the fans outside being exposed to the sun, so he opened the door in advance to let everyone in. People were noisy and discussing yesterday's big news.
"Master, Master, I saw you on TV this morning!"
"Yes, Master, you are really amazing. You solved such a big case by yourself!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. I heard that human body parts were found in the freezer at the crime scene. Tell me, how could these people be so cruel?"
"That's right. Eating your own people is a crime that will be punished by God!"
"Today's society is too dangerous. Children can be deceived when looking for jobs or partners online. I must tell our children not to go online anymore!"
"Master is worthy of being called a master. He dared to break into the den of thieves alone and returned safely. He must have divine power protecting him! From now on, I don't think anyone will dare to question the master!"
"I hope God will bless me and let me draw a master number soon. I have been queuing since the show started..."
Compliments and praises from everyone were endless. Bai Mian quietly finished the bread on the plate, drank the milk, and then calmly thanked everyone.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Lame Brother turned on the lottery machine as usual. The machine drew out three numbers. The people who were chosen stayed, and the others either dispersed or gathered around to watch the show.
Today's first client was a lively and cheerful girl. She sat down happily in front of Bai Mian, then took out a large airline box and put it on the table. In the box lay a chubby big orange cat. The girl opened the box, and the fat orange cat walked out leisurely. It was huge in size, with fluffy hair, and looked like a big, soft bread.
As soon as the orange cat appeared, seven or eight hands came over. It was not afraid of strangers and lay on the table very happily, allowing people to pet it, and making satisfied purring sounds from its mouth.
The girl proudly introduced the kitten to everyone, "Isn't it well raised? Its name is Daju, and I picked it up from the roadside. Its mother had a car accident right after giving birth, and it was the only one that survived the litter. I happened to be passing by, so I adopted it. It's three years old now. I raised it from a small child to this size, and I've never let it get sick!"
Looking at the big orange cat's chubby belly, Bai Mian couldn't help but touch it. As she touched it, she asked, "Why did you bring a cat with you when you come out to tell fortunes? It's so hot now, aren't you afraid that it will get a heat stroke?"
The girl shook her head and pointed at the big orange and said, "No, I'm not here to tell my own fortune, I'm here to tell its fortune!"
Bai Mian felt incredible. She looked at Daju again and again: "It... Why does a cat need fortune telling? What do you want to tell for it? Fortune? No, how can a cat have any fortune? It doesn't need to work to make money... Is it marriage? No, I see that its eggs have been castrated. It is a male cat. Probably it will not have any marriage in the future..."
The girl laughed out loud at Bai Mian. She said, "It's not about fortune or marriage. I want you to help me translate what it's saying!"
"Translate cat language?"
Bai Mian showed an embarrassed expression, she didn't seem to have mastered this skill.
"That's right," the girl explained, "This big fat orange cat in our house is a chatterbox. As soon as I come home, it meows around me non-stop, but I don't understand a word. I'm really curious, why does it talk to me so much every day? What is it talking about?"
Bai Mian smiled helplessly: "So that's how it is, but I can't help you, I don't speak cat language."
The girl insisted, "But you have real skills! Although there are many people online who claim to be pet communicators and take orders, they are obviously scammers. What they say is all made up. But you are different. I have watched many of your live broadcasts and I believe in you! Anyway, since I am here, you can check the pulse of my kitten!"
"Take the cat's pulse?" Bai Mian frowned again and was shocked.
"Yeah, what's wrong with feeling a cat's pulse?" the girl asked. "Kittens also have pulses, so why can't we feel a cat's pulse? Everything is possible. How can we know if we don't try?"
Bai Mian had to admit that what the girl said made sense, but she had never tried it before, so she gave the girl a heads-up in advance: "I can try, but don't hold your hopes too high."
The girl was very reasonable: "I understand, Master, you don't have to worry, just do it, it doesn't matter if you fail!"
So Bai Mian reached out her hand to the kitten. The Internet said that a cat's pulse is at the ribs inside the elbow of the forelimb, so Bai Mian touched there. Sure enough, she felt Daju's strong heartbeat. To her surprise, she actually saw Daju's past in this way and understood what Daju was thinking.
Seeing Bai Mian's surprised expression, the girl knew that it was a success. She jumped up and cheered: "Woohoo! Master, tell me quickly, what did my big orange say to me?"
"Your name is Xia Yu." Bai Mian tentatively conveyed the first message.
Xia Yu nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, yes, I didn't expect it to know this. Can kittens also read?"
When the people around heard this, they all exclaimed:
"It's amazing! It can not only count people, but also animals!"
"Oh my god, this is too amazing. It completely refreshes my worldview..."
"Originally I wasn't interested in fortune-telling, but if it could be done for animals, I would bring my dog with me tomorrow!"
"It's over. The master's business is going to expand again. I couldn't get a number to begin with. Now with this new business, won't I have to wait until next year?"
Bai Mian answered Xia Yu's question: "Of course, it can not only understand words, but also understand what you say."
Xia Yu immediately became nervous: "What? It can understand human language? Then doesn't it know all the bad things I say about it?"
Bai Mian nodded: "Yes, it heard it clearly. It heard you say it was fat and that it was like a truck during the day, so it deliberately jumped on your chest at night and woke you up."
Someone nearby sighed, "He can understand human language and has such a strong desire for revenge. Isn't he a spirit?"
Bai Mian: "In fact, small animals are sometimes smarter than we think, but due to language problems, they can't express it."
Xia Yu asked hurriedly: "Master, is there anything else? Tell me everything quickly!"
Bai Mian and Daju looked at each other for a while, then said slowly: "It has always been curious about your occupation. It wants to ask, are you a thief?"
"Me? A thief?" Xia Yu was shocked. "How is that possible? Why would it think that?!"
Bai Mian explained: "Because it always sees you go out before dawn and come back in the middle of the night, it thought you were a thief."
Xia Yu wanted to cry but had no tears. She held up Daju's face and said, "Silly child, what are you thinking? How could mom be a thief? Mom's job is post-production, specializing in post-production for some variety shows! I go out early and come back late because we have too much overtime in this industry. There is no other way. Mom has to make money to support the family. If there is no overtime pay, how can mom have the money to buy cans for you? Alas, I didn't expect that you have always looked at mom like this..."
Bai Mian added: "It doesn't mean to despise you. It means that if you are really a thief, it can go out and help you steal things so that you can go home earlier."
Xia Yu was immediately moved. She rubbed Daju's chubby head and said with a smile: "Baby, you are really a good baby. Mom understands your feelings. Mom will spend more time with you in the future, but you have to listen to mom. We can't do anything illegal! Also, when mom is working overtime at home in the future, you are not allowed to make trouble for me! If you hadn't been making trouble all the time, maybe I could have finished my work earlier."
The big orange cat meowed anxiously twice, and Bai Mian explained for it: "It's not messing with you. It thinks your computer is a monster. Every time you turn on the computer, you will be controlled by the computer for a long time. So it wants to save you and help you defeat the computer. Its way of fighting is to kill the computer with its butt!"
Bai Mian said this seriously and everyone around him laughed.
