Chapter 053 Chapter 53
After being called by Professor Xu, Ah Yan and Zhu Jue naturally failed to leave.
They were tourists brought here by chance by Professor Xu, and were also friends of the protagonist of today's chrysanthemum-viewing party, so naturally they would not be driven away.
After being viewed and appreciated by a group of insiders, “Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes” and “Fairy from the Sky” were sent to the core exhibition stand in the official competition area.
Each pot of chrysanthemums has a display card with a number, name, and voting QR code.
All tourists who buy tickets to enter have the right to vote for the "King of Chrysanthemums" by the public, and the other half will be voted by expert judges.
As the owner of these two newly planted pots of chrysanthemums, there is no doubt that Yi Zhi needs to be kept until the end.
Even if she wanted to leave, Professor Yuan would keep her here.
Facing Yi Zhi's pleading eyes, Ah Yan could only express deep sympathy, "Sister, I have no other choice! I dare not go against the teachers in your college."
Although these two pots of new varieties were moved out a little late, they immediately attracted everyone's attention because of the gathering and they were placed in the most central location.
"There are new varieties? Oh, I just voted."
"These two are so beautiful. Oh my god, are they chrysanthemums?"
"What's the name, huh? Fried tomato and eggs? Are you serious? Is this chrysanthemum really called Fried tomato and eggs?"
Someone exclaimed "Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes", and everyone in the audience looked over.
"What the hell? Did I hear you right? Scrambled eggs with tomatoes?"
"It seems to be a new variety of chrysanthemum."
Suddenly, the tourists who had been watching in orderly circles in lines began to flock to the core exhibition stand.
Afterwards, they actually saw the four big words "Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes" on the chrysanthemum card.
Although the four characters "(temporary name)" were written at the end, they were subconsciously ignored by everyone.
The chrysanthemums are red and yellow in color, with extended filaments. Unlike the "Shuaiqi" chrysanthemum, the petals are not as few as before, but rather very dense, luxuriant and beautiful.
With this color combination, there is really nothing wrong with calling it scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
"It's more beautiful than a phoenix flapping its wings, but why is it named that?"
"It was added temporarily."
Everyone who came to see the new varieties took out their mobile phones to take photos and videos and send them out. The most important thing was to take a picture of the four words "Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes", hahaha.
Fairy from the Sky also received a lot of camera shots. "This color combination is so beautiful that I can only describe it as fairy."
A Yan and Zhu Jue each had only one vote. One voted for "Tomato Scrambled Eggs" and the other voted for "Fairy from the Other World". The main point was fairness.
More and more people came to see the two newly planted chrysanthemums, so they decided not to continue crowding here. They said hello to Yi Zhi and Professor Xu, and the young couple quietly retreated.
They had finished looking at the chrysanthemums in the paid area. The Expo Park is so big, and in addition to chrysanthemums there are also lily towers and other things. Since they were already there, they all went to join in the fun.
Ah Yan silently sent a message to Yi Zhi: “Come on, you can do it.”
The Double Ninth Festival activities in Bincheng are very grand. In addition to the Chrysanthemum Culture Festival at the Expo Park, Ayan and Zhu Jue also found some quiz activities such as flower viewing and poetry writing, and an ancient building costume change photo taking area as they walked.
Ayan and Zhu Jue tried their best to avoid the crowds and walked to places with fewer people as much as possible, strolling among the clusters of flowers. Ayan took photos naturally while wearing a straw hat.
The Expo Park is very large. You may not notice it while walking, but once you sit down and stand up again, you will feel like your legs are filled with lead.
A Yan and Zhu Jue sent a message to Yi Zhi one hour before the garden closed, telling him that they would leave by subway earlier to avoid the crowds of soldiers coming to close the garden.
Yi Zhi replied after a moment.
【Easy to know】: [Noodles filled with beef]
【Yi Zhi】: Teacher Yuan asked me to stay and take me out for dinner in the evening. I have to go back later. You guys go first, don't wait for me.
Without waiting for Yi Zhi, A Yan and Jue Jue skillfully paralyzed themselves on the subway.
Ah Yan took a look at the exercise records on his phone and his pupils trembled.
"We left home at around 10 o'clock. It's only 4:30 in the afternoon. How come we walked 17,000 steps?"
They were not in a hurry as they just walked around the garden and the exhibition area. They walked so many steps that Ah Yan touched his calf and felt a little shivering.
"Let's get some massage to loosen it up when we get back." Zhu Jue frowned slightly.
"I'll buy a fascia gun."
Ah Yan touched his chin and said, "Okay, let's buy one for each of us and put it in the dormitory."
Having said that, she directly opened the shopping software and started searching, since she had nothing else to do at the moment.
A Yan was doing his homework on the fascia gun when the local push notification on his mobile phone brought news.
[During the Double Ninth Festival, the Bincheng Expo Park Chrysanthemum Exhibition surprisingly showed new varieties of chrysanthemums "Tomato Scrambled Eggs" and "Fairy from the Sky"]
A Yan:!
Sure enough, when she clicked on this hot recommendation, there was already a lot of heated discussion and “hahahahaha” below.
"Tomato scrambled eggs? Are you serious? Is the person who grew this chrysanthemum a chef?"
"It's so funny! I want to go see the fried tomato and eggs too. What? How come the flower show is going to end in three days? Someone wrote in blood to postpone it!"
"I thought it was a typo in the news, but when I clicked on it I saw it was actually called Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes."
"This reminds me of a new species of mushroom called the Chinese Delicious Mushroom..."
By the time the two returned to the restaurant near the school to eat, Ah Yan had already seen a video on Tik Tok with a million likes that read, "Family members, who understands? I saw a chrysanthemum in the World Expo Park today. Its name is scrambled eggs with tomatoes! Vote for it, the king of chrysanthemums!"
The activity of appreciating chrysanthemums during the Double Ninth Festival is a grand one every year, but selecting the Chrysanthemum King is a matter within a small circle.
I don’t know who shared the QR code and photos of the on-site voting. Now, a bunch of remote flower viewers collectively voted for "Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes". The traffic was so heavy that the mini program crashed.
Ayan and Zhu Jue simply ate at a homemade noodle restaurant near the school, and then went to a blind massage parlor next door for 40 minutes of massage.
After they finished the massage, Ayan entered the voting interface of the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Club again, which had been repaired by now.
However, the name of scrambled eggs with tomatoes has been changed.
Species: Shenniao Nirvana (tentative name)
Former name: Scrambled eggs with tomatoes
Ah Yan almost burst out laughing. He guessed that some leader felt that scrambled eggs with tomatoes was not good enough and could easily cause misunderstanding, so he quickly gave it a big name.
However, it was the name "Tomato Scrambled Eggs" which was almost a joke that made this chrysanthemum exhibition "go viral". It was a hot search in the afternoon and is still hot on the Internet. Netizens are all in high spirits. A sudden name change can easily trigger a rebellious mentality among the surfing crowd.
She took a screenshot and sent it to Yizhi, asking if this was her new name?
【Ayan】：[screenshot.jpg]
[Ayan]: Isn't the divine bird the phoenix? Why isn't it called Phoenix Nirvana? If it suddenly changes its name, netizens will probably be upset.
[Easy to know]: Phoenix Nirvana and "Phoenix Spreading Wings" clash, and calling it Suzaku is not appropriate, so the red and yellow color represents rebirth from the ashes, and finally the choice was made for the Divine Bird Nirvana.
[Easy to Know]: It became a hot topic, and the leader of the association said that the name is ambiguous and can easily lead to misunderstanding. [Hammerhead]
Sure enough, when Ah Yan was talking to Yi Zhi, he saw that the netizens in the real-time hot searches were very unhappy.
"The Divine Bird's Rebirth is too tacky, although it sounds nice...but I choose scrambled eggs with tomatoes!"
"Wait, I heard that this was grown by freshmen? Is that true? What kind of innate farming holy body is this!"
"I heard about it, too. It seems to be from Binhai University. It is indeed a pillar of the motherland!"
The name of the tomato scrambled eggs turning into the rebirth of the divine bird has not yet been passed down, and the latest news that "the new variety was grown by Binda freshmen" has triggered a new wave of discussion.
If everyone was just attracted by the "scrambled eggs with tomatoes" meme at the beginning, they were suddenly shocked after the specific information was revealed.
"I cried. I spent my freshman year eating, drinking and having fun. Is this the difference between a top dream school and an ordinary undergraduate?"
"You are both freshmen, but others are already breeding new varieties of flowers, while you are still eating, drinking and having fun every day..."
After seeing this, Ah Yan fell silent. Why did he suddenly feel like he was being scolded?
She and Juejue finished their meal and prepared to go back to the dormitory. As soon as they entered the campus through the side door, Ah Yan received a call from Gu Jiasui.
"Ayan, are you in school? Is it convenient now?"
Ah Yan was stunned for a moment, "I'm here, what's wrong? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Gu Jiasui is not at school most weekends. Sometimes he comes back on Sunday night, and sometimes he goes to class directly on Monday. He usually talks about things on WeChat. This time he called suddenly, I'm afraid it's something urgent.
"The Pet Protection Association told me that they hadn't seen Orange for three days. I left on Friday and haven't seen him in the past few days. My classmates from the association haven't found him either."
Orange is the big chubby orange cat.
A Yan remembered.
"I know. Where is Juzi usually?" Ah Yan had only met him that time when he was with Gu Jiasui.
Normally, she didn't ignore Daju and knew the approximate locations of several puppies on campus.
Gu Jiasui reported several places, down to the details of the grass and flowers. Ah Yan wrote them down and listened to her anxious tone and repeatedly comforted her: "Don't worry, maybe she went out to play somewhere."
"You said before that Orange doesn't like being locked up. Maybe he went out to play again."
"I hope so. My classmates in the association are also looking for it. Anyway, thank you for your help. I'm on my way." Gu Jiasui sighed.
Ayan hung up the phone, and she and Juejue changed their route together.
"Where would Orange go? I usually don't pay much attention to it." A Yan said distressedly.
"Sui Shun said that all the cats and dogs in the school have undergone sterilization surgery, so they should not be in estrus."
"Let's look in those places first." Zhu Jue said.
He took out two masks from his bag and they both put them on.
Ah Yan thought about it for a while, and there didn't seem to be anyone around who was interested in "sucking the kitten", so the two of them first went to the road where they met the orange cat last time.
"Orange? Fat orange?"
As the sky gradually darkened, Ah Yan turned on the flashlight on his cell phone and shone it on the surrounding trees and grass while calling out.
I searched for the "scissors method to find cats" on my phone, but Daju is a stray cat in the school. This method requires putting clean water on the stove at home, so it is impossible to use it.
The two of them searched all the way, went to several locations given by Gu Jiasui, and met other classmates who were looking for cats, but they all found nothing.
"It's strange. Orange usually stays in these areas and doesn't go anywhere else." said the student who was looking for the cat.
This female classmate was holding a chicken breast of the same type as Gu Jiasui that she had specially bought. Although Daju would not eat it every time, he would take it away.
It was already 8:30 in the evening when Gu Jiasui rushed back to school. The cat-finding team had made no progress and was standing still.
Although she was anxious, she tried to stay calm. "I left the school through the main gate on Friday, and Ju Zi walked me a little way. That evening, the association members met me at the cafeteria entrance."
"Then there was no sighting of it for two days from Saturday until now."
"Could it have been taken away by someone?" the female classmate who was looking for the cat couldn't help but ask.
"You didn't go through the association to adopt it, but just caught it when you saw it?"
Ah Yan had a similar guess in his mind, but he thought again that Juzi had lived in Binda for a long time and could be said to be a "cat senior" to the freshmen. He was familiar to everyone in the school, from the deans and professors to the students and staff.
Moreover, Binda does not allow outsiders to enter or leave nowadays, and the orange cat is so big that it is not easy to catch it and take it away.
"People in the school won't catch cats casually, and the big orange cat...although a little fat, is really agile." Gu Jiasui said.
Before, she took Orange away for adoption, and the scene of Orange escaping from prison was recorded in every detail by surveillance cameras. The speed and the posture were like a small exploding cannonball.
If someone wants to hug it, they may fall over if they are not careful.
Gu Jiasui asked Ayan and Zhu Jue to go back first, but Ayan was worried. Although there were still classmates from the association there, they were also girls, so Ayan simply went with them.
They searched for the cat until the dormitory gate was closed. The two people returned to the dormitory exhausted, but still found nothing.
Yi Zhi had already returned to the dormitory by now. She quickly washed up and was very surprised to see the two people who had just returned.
"You just came back? Did you find the cat?"
A Yan shook her head. Originally, Orange was just a fat and cute cat in the school to her, but after two hours of searching, A Yan became more and more worried about Orange's safety.
Cats in school always have stronger survival abilities than cats at home. She could only pray in her heart that nothing would happen and that the little fellow had been playing too much and hadn’t come back.
Gu Jiasui went to wash up first. Yi Zhi asked about the cat, and A Yan said a few words and then found a photo of Daju in his mobile phone to show her.
Yi Zhi looked at the photo, as if taking note of it carefully.
"I'll get up early tomorrow to go for a run, and then go out to help look for it. You guys go to bed tonight."
"Ding Ling said she is at a relative's house tonight and won't be back."
Ah Yan was really tired today. She nodded after listening to Yi Zhi's words and did not bother to ask about the follow-up of the chrysanthemum viewing party. She handed over to Gu Jiasui, took a quick shower, and collapsed on the bed. She sent a message to Juejue, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.
Chu Bingbing didn't come back tonight, so there were only three people in the dormitory.
Gu Jiasui tossed and turned thinking about the oranges he had not found. He didn't know how long it took before he fell asleep. A'yan, who was exhausted, slept very soundly and did not even dream.
Yi Zhi tried hard to shrink herself into the quilt, and then she quietly entered the space.
Because she went to the chrysanthemum viewing party all day today, she neglected her farm work for the day.
As long as the plants in the space are kept dry, the farm work will accumulate more and more, and she also has to prepare the fruit orders for next week.
She goes out to work during the day and does farm work in the space at night. Yi Zhixin thought, how could there be such a miserable superpower as her, working day and night shifts non-stop, farming all day and night.
On Monday morning, the last week of October, Yi Zhi went out with his mobile phone to complete his daily training.
Thinking about the two roommates who were busy looking for the cat, Yizhi decided to set the morning jogging area today at the place where Gu Jiasui said the orange cat often appeared.
The dormitory building opened at five o'clock, and Yi Zhi and the postgraduate entrance examination candidates who went to the library to reserve seats left at the same time.
Fortunately, the route was different. She arrived at the road that Gu Jiasui mentioned. The road was empty and it was still a little chilly in the early morning.
Yi Zhi didn't hear the cat's meow. She came to the bushes, stood next to a big tree, stretched out her hands, and waves of wood-type spiritual power surged out.
The present world has not undergone the changes of the apocalypse, and these are very ordinary plants, unable to communicate with humans in a very detailed manner.
But for Yi Zhi, a wood-type mutant, simple communication is no problem.
The wood-type spiritual power spread, and within Yi Zhi's field of vision, the light green spiritual power floated in the vast vegetation area on the coast, bringing her words to every place with vegetation.
A tiny bit of wood-type spiritual power can nourish these plants, and they are happy to find a little fellow who usually burrows in the grass and is a bit annoying.
The campus of Binda University is too large. Yi Zhi has not used so much wood-type spiritual power for a long time since she came to the stable human world.
Fortunately, hard work pays off, and after a while, she slowly opened her eyes.
Found it.
According to the intermittent and vague meaning of the weeds that conveyed the message.
This orange cat seems to be raising babies recently?
Plants and trees do not know what humans call various objects, and their descriptions are vague and novel.
Yi Zhi was unable to locate the place based on the description, so she only determined the location of the weeds that conveyed the message, and she ran all the way there.
Finally, Yizhi stopped at a pile of abandoned building materials of a teaching building under construction.
She found the dusty big orange cat. Yi Zhi checked it with her phone and confirmed that it was this one.
Afterwards, she took a photo and posted it to the group.
Gu Jiasui did not sleep well that night because she had something on her mind. Although Yi Zhi got up very quietly, she still woke up.
I just didn't sleep well. My body and mind feel a little tired and groggy, but I haven't gotten up yet.
But the moment he saw the message Yi Zhi sent to the group, Gu Jiasui suddenly came to his senses.
[Easy to know]: The pile of abandoned buildings next to the Chinese Building is too far away.
Gu Jiasui quickly typed a response: "Are you not injured?"
[Easy to know]: No, it's really fat, but is it a female cat? It has cubs too.
Huh? What?
After seeing this message, Gu Jiasui sat up directly from the bed.
[Gu Jiasui]: But Juzi is a male cat, where did the cubs come from? He is a male cat.
Gu Jiasui was really confused.
She was certain, certain, and positive that Orange was a male cat, and that she had personally taken him to the pet hospital to have him euthanized. She later donated money to the association, and all stray animals in Binda were killed off.
Cub? Where did Cub come from?
[Easy to know]: [Twisting head] The cubs are calico cats, there are quite a few of them, could it be that Juzi is raising the cubs for someone else? Is she a male mother? [Photo of calico cats]
Yi Zhi didn't know much about the habits of pets, but he also felt that it was not right for the eunuch cat to raise kittens.
【Gu Jiasui】：I got up and am going over now.
Gu Jiasui got up quickly and sent the news of finding the orange to the association. At this time, most people were still asleep.
It was six o'clock in the morning. A Yan heard her movements with her eyes closed. She yawned and asked Suishun sleepily what he was going to do.
Hearing that Daju was found, Ayan felt relieved immediately and thought she could continue to sleep. But when she heard that Daju was the male mother raising the cub, Ayan also sat up from the bed?
"Ah? I thought I was dreaming." A Yan's eyes were dazed.
In the end, A Yan just washed his face, and the two of them went out wearing long clothes and trousers.
The three of them gathered together, and Gu Jiasui did not forget to put chicken breast and ham in the bag he brought with him.
"I remember now, Suishun, you used to feed Orange chicken breast, but Orange didn't like it." A Yan said.
Gu Jiasui nodded. "Every time it just smells it but doesn't eat it, it will take it away anyway."
Her beautiful eyes flickered, and she immediately understood what Ah Yan meant: "You mean, you don't eat the oranges, but you took them away to feed the cubs, or the mother cat?"
"I think it's very likely." A Yan said while wearing a mask.
"I used to think that Orange was just pretending that he didn't like the food in front of me, and then secretly took it away and hid it. Cats have the habit of hiding treasures." Gu Jiasui said. She didn't take it seriously before, but now she thinks that the chicken breast that Orange didn't like but took away was probably eaten by other cats.
"Juzi, Juzi, it's me." Gu Jiasui called softly.
Just now, Orange saw Yizhi, and then he quickly went back into the cave, as if he had seen something terrible.
At this moment, Yi Zhi was about five meters away from them. Gu Jiasui finally called Orange out. Its originally shiny fur was covered with dust, and it seemed that it had not licked its fur, so it looked gray.
When Orange saw that it was a familiar two-legged beast, it took the initiative to come forward, rubbed against Gu Jiasui and called out gently a few times. Gu Jiasui took out chicken breast and ham sausage from the bag, opened them, and Orange took them back to the cave.
Ah Yan heard a few weak "meows", and then she saw the big orange cat coming out of the hole again, followed closely by a very beautiful but somewhat haggard calico female cat.
A Yan:!
So Big Orange is being an eggless cat dad?
A Yan watched as the calico female cat carried out two kittens and brought them straight to Gu Jiasui. The cat's paws pushed forward, handing its children to her.
A Yan was stunned, and Gu Jiasui was also stunned.
These two were not enough. Soon after, the mother cat brought out two smaller ones and lined them up in a row in front of Gu Jiasui, as if waiting for her to choose.
The big orange cat meowed a few times beside her legs, then ran back into the cave. The kitten it took out this time looked abnormal at first glance.
The others that were taken out by their mother cat were still able to move, jump, meow, and move around.
But the one that Big Orange just took out seemed to be not breathing if its eyes were not still moving.
"This kitten is not in good condition. It needs to go to the hospital." said A Yan.
"Let's go now. There's a 24-hour hospital near the school. Let's go check it out first." Gu Jiasui took action immediately.
They had morning classes in the morning, so they went to the pet hospital to pay! The five kittens were put into a bag and taken away. Ah Yan saw that Ju Zi and the calico cat mother seemed a little confused.
The extra chicken breast and ham were unpacked and left here. Gu Jiasui sent a message to the association, and the three of them hurriedly called a taxi and ran out.
After a recharge and prepayment, they commissioned the inspection. By the time they received the inspection information from the pet hospital, A Yan and Gu Jiasui's morning class had not yet ended.
Looking at the chat group of the pet hospital, A Yan frowned.
The kitten was completely paralyzed. The doctor said that it would be hard to cure unless we could find a professional veterinarian who could perform acupuncture.
Ah Yan's mind turned, and he immediately thought of someone.
Xiao Qingnang, the living medical saint! He can definitely cure a mere cat's paralysis!
In a medical school classroom, Xiao Qingnang, who was writing notes furiously, suddenly received news about his roommate's girlfriend.
"Brother Xiao, I heard that your family is a traditional Chinese doctor. Can you give cats acupuncture?"
