Chapter 073 Crazy Tentacles-12
Jiang Yan returned home and found that the three children had disappeared. He searched the house and found only a goldfish bowl on the table next to the TV.
Was this bought by Meng Tang?
The goldfish inside was blowing bubbles and swimming around, which was quite cute.
Jiang Yan stared for a while and was about to look away when a pink thing caught his attention.
He hesitated.
The pink thing was hiding behind the water plants, like a little hamster trying to cover its ears while stealing a bell. Suddenly, a goldfish swam past the thing.
The pink lump trembled, and in that instant, Jiang Yan saw the whole appearance of this thing.
It has pink, slender tentacles, several of which are intertwined and wriggling in the water along with the seaweed. In the center of this pink lump, there are two round little eyes, looking at the humans outside the water tank with a shy and cautious look.
So strange, take another look.
Jiang Yan continued to stare at it with full concentration. He was really curious about what kind of creature it was. Its color was similar to that of a goldfish, but it was not a goldfish.
The pink thing sensed that it was being observed, and it immediately shrank even smaller, as if it had compressed itself into a vacuum, squeezing the entire thing into the gaps between the seaweed.
Seeing this, Jiang Yan was unwilling to give up, so he simply took a pair of chopsticks from the kitchen.
He carefully hooked it with chopsticks, and the pink thing suddenly ran out from the seaweed and then scurried into the group of goldfish, trying to hide itself again.
However, the goldfishes didn't seem to like this strange-looking thing. As soon as it came in, they swam away, leaving it alone outside.
Jiang Yan also took this opportunity to roughly guess what kind of creature it was - an octopus only as big as a palm.
Do octopuses have no brain cells? They look stupid.
Jiang Yan put his face close to the fish tank, his cheeks reflected in the water. The octopus seemed to be startled by his approach and ran away to other places like crazy.
It’s a pity that the fish tank is so small that Jiang Yan finally caught it.
"Little octopus?"
Jiang Yan picked it up with chopsticks, lifted it out of the goldfish bowl, and muttered to himself.
Seeing that he couldn't escape, the little octopus thought that Jiang Yan wouldn't be able to recognize him anyway, so he suddenly had an idea, took off his shy skin, and started to do whatever he wanted.
“Chirp.”
The little octopus made a strange sound and kept wriggling its tentacles. It climbed up Jiangyan's fair wrist, stuck to it like candy, and sucked it out steadily with the suction cup under its tentacles.
Seeing the little octopus go from being distant and running away at the beginning to actively approaching it now, Jiang Yan felt a little surprised. Perhaps the other party's tiny appearance aroused his desire to protect it, so he let the little guy squirm on his palm.
"Were you bought by Meng Xiaohei and his friends?"
Jiang Yan guessed that the fish tank was bought by the three children, so he talked to himself. For some reason, when he saw the little octopus, he had an illusion - he seemed to have seen this little octopus somewhere, giving him a strange sense of familiarity.
"Do you have a name?"
Jiang Yan didn't expect the little octopus to understand him and answer his question, but surprisingly, the little octopus shook its pink round head.
"Hmm? Can you understand?" Jiang Yan watched the little octopus stretch its tentacles very long, until they wrapped around his index finger, like a pink ring on it. The tentacles kept wriggling, and it felt a little itchy.
"How about I call you Little Pink?"
Considering that they were bought by Meng Xiaohei, Xiaolan and Xiaolu, Jiang Yan gave them names similar to those of the three children.
As soon as he finished speaking, he clearly felt the little octopus stiffen for a moment, as if it disliked the name.
"Isn't it nice to listen to?"
Jiang Yan frowned slightly. While he was struggling, the little octopus quickly jumped up along his arm again. When he reacted, the little octopus had moved to his chin.
Then, the little octopus held his chin with its tentacles and rammed its pink head against his lips.
Meng Tang’s inner thoughts after turning into a little octopus: My wife can’t recognize me anyway, so I’ll kiss her madly!
Jiang Yan mistakenly thought the octopus was hungry when it rolled around. He glanced around and saw a bag of goldfish food next to the fish tank.
No wonder this little octopus was hungry, it turned out it had no food to eat.
But he had no experience in raising octopuses.
Jiang Yan grabbed the octopus's sticky head with his hands and pulled it away from his mouth like chewing gum, saying, "This is my mouth, you can't eat it."
Little Octopus Mengtang: If you can't bite your wife's mouth, how can they have more intimate actions in the future?
Hey, honey, don't be shy.
The little octopus waved a few pink tentacles and kept reaching towards Jiangyan's pink and soft lips.
Just then, a shadow came rushing over and pulled the little octopus off.
Jiang Yan blinked, and his hands were immediately empty. When he looked up again, a child's face appeared in his sight.
It’s Meng Xiaolu.
Meng Xiaolu put her hands behind her back and smiled politely at Jiang Yan: "Brother, when did you come back?"
"Not long after," Jiang Yan said, raising his hand and pointing to a fish tank not far away, where a few fish were swimming around watching the show. "Did you buy this?"
"Yeah." Meng Xiaolu's gaze paused on the fish tank. He spoke calmly, but his expression was still a little nervous. His hands behind his back almost crushed the little octopus to death.
"Where are Xiao Hei and Xiao Lan?"
"They are behind us." Meng Xiaolu said, and suddenly he felt pain in his hand. Through the communication of racial blood, he heard the voice of the little octopus.
Little Octopus: Why are you pinching me? Let me go! I want to be with my wife!
Meng Xiaolu: Brother, don’t move, you will scare him.
"Okay, I'll go to the kitchen first."
After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he walked towards the kitchen. Meng Xiaolu behind him breathed a sigh of relief and slowly moved to the fish tank. When he was about to put the little octopus in, he knew with his keen hearing that Jiang Yan had stopped.
So Meng Xiaolu tensed up and quickly stuffed her brother into the fish tank. Then she quickly turned around to face Jiang Yan and used her body to block the fish tank.
"Anything else, brother?"
Jiang Yan did not suspect Meng Xiaolu's sneaky behavior, and only said: "It seems that there is a hungry octopus in the fish tank."
Meng Xiaolu scratched his head, "Octopus? There is no octopus. We only bought goldfish. Brother Jiang Yan, you must have seen it wrong."
Jiang Yan said "Hmm?" in a puzzled tone, "But I just..."
"Okay, okay, Brother Jiang Yan, go get us something to eat. I've been hungry for a long time." Meng Xiaolu said obediently.
"OK."
When Jiang Yan walked into the kitchen and disappeared into the living room, Meng Xiaolu's danger alert was finally lifted.
"Why did you hide me?"
The octopus in the water tank looked angrily at Meng Xiaolu outside the glass tank.
Meng Xiaolu shrugged, "How about letting you out to scare people?"
The octopus said unconvincedly: "Scary? You mean I look scary? Open your eyes and look again. It's obvious that my wife likes me so much. She was willing to kiss me just now."
Meng Xiaolu: "...Brother, are you serious?"
Just then, Meng Xiaohei and Meng Xiaolan, who had gone out to buy octopus food, came back.
Meng Xiaolan, holding a lollipop in her mouth, skipped over to Meng Xiaolu and handed the thing over. "Here, big brother's food."
Meng Xiaolu threw the feed into the fish tank. Since it was specifically for feeding octopuses, the goldfishes swam away tactfully.
“You’re just giving me this to eat?”
"Come on, brother, you are an octopus now, you must be food from the sea. You definitely can't chew a chicken leg with your small mouth."
Meng Xiaozhang Yutang: “…”Are you polite?
Half an hour later, Jiang Yan walked out of the kitchen carrying the dishes. Only after he sat down at the table did he remember what he had forgotten.
"Where is Meng Tang?" He almost forgot about the girl.
Jiang Yan glanced at the time on his phone. Even if it was time to go to work, it was already time.
Meng Xiaolu had obviously forgotten that her elder brother was dressed as a woman. She immediately became nervous, coughed, and said, "She, she went out and will be back later."
"But it's so late." Jiang Yan glanced at the sky outside. It was already dark. He was a little worried that the girl might be in danger. "When did she go out?"
Meng Xiaolu looked up at the fish tank and said thoughtfully, "It seems like she has been out for a long time. Why don't you give her a call?"
"Ding, the number you dialed is currently unanswered, please call again later..."
A mechanical female voice came from the receiver, which undoubtedly increased Jiang Yan's worries. He put down his chopsticks and stood up, "You guys eat first, I'll go out for a while."
After Jiang Yan left, the quiet atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively.
"Xiaolu, isn't our big brother in the fish tank?"
Innocent Meng Xiaolan blinked her watery eyes and looked at Meng Xiaolu in confusion, but her body transformed into several tentacles, which crawled along the bottom of the table to the dining table and swept away all the food on the table like a robbery.
Meng Xiaohei narrowed his eyes, transformed into tentacles, snatched the food from Meng Xiaolan's tentacles, and put it back on the plate.
"Xiao Hei, what are you doing?!"
Meng Xiaolan held her little tentacles weakly and said with tears in her eyes: "I'm just hungry..."
Meng Xiaohei's expression remained unchanged, "Wait for Jiang Yan to come back and eat together."
"Okay, stop talking." Meng Xiaolu stopped the two people from clashing and changed the subject, saying, "First think of a way to restore Big Brother to his original state, otherwise Big Brother will be exposed."
Meng Xiaohei didn't raise his eyelids, "Big brother did something stupid, what does it have to do with us?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the goldfish tank on the TV not far away made a banging sound. The three people at the dining table looked over and found that it was the eldest brother who was hitting the glass.
Although the eldest brother turned into a small octopus as big as a palm, his momentum was still very sharp.
Through the glass, the three heard the angry voice of the eldest brother Meng Tang, "What are you guys mumbling about? Why is my wife gone? Did you make her angry and leave?"
Because sound transmission in water is poor, Meng Tang did not hear the conversation between the people at the dining table.
Meng Xiaolu sighed and shook her head, then walked over to fish her brother out of the fish tank. At the same time, Meng Xiaolan obediently filled the basin with water and handed it to Meng Xiaolu.
Meng Xiaolu fished her elder brother out of the fish tank and put him in a basin, then put the basin on the table.
The octopus in the basin looked at the three brothers who were looking at him, and felt uneasy. He asked cautiously, "What are you doing?"
