The Crosson base. WaA63d

The luxury car glided through the air, and their bodies were pushed back into the seats by the force exerted by the expensive fission engine. They skimmed by like a meteor.

Many of the trainees on the lawn looked up in surprise.

In the dorm next door, the few A-level trainees who were still watching the variety show and eating melon seeds swished towards the window. JgK15U

Ming Yao looked envious, “Who-whose car is this?!”

Zoe snorted, “The show-off King’s car.”

 

Inside the car.

The wind poured in from the open top, the filter screen accurately adjusting the temperature and humidity inside the vehicle. Wu Jin, who was waiting to be ‘walked’, held the little Pterosaur, who was also waiting to be walked, in his arms excitedly.

Ever since the suspension car rose up into the air, the little Pterosaur had started to go into high spirits, waking up instantly, its wings fluttering.

 

Wu Jin kneaded the little Pterosaur, then pinched it lightly, “Not sleepy anymore?” a29bIz

The suspension car finally slowed down.

 

The Crosson base was a few kilometers away from the urban area. A few minutes later, they’d arrived downtown.

In front of them, a tall building rose up into the clouds, with numerous virtual projection advertisements below it. “Blue Elephant Kindergarten”, “Yu’s Home Robots”, “YBB Shopping Center”… oycjJX

 

Wu Jin’s gaze stopped at a spot.

On the sixth floor of the building was an advertisement–– “Pet care and companionship”.

  VwGZRi

The suspension car slowly pulled into a parking spot.

The attendants politely greeted the two people who got out of the car. Many other car owners around them were staring at the luxury vehicle either consciously or unintentionally, marveling over it.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Beside them was a group of guide robots with bright eyes and either cute or sexy electronic voices, “Little brother, scan the code! Sir, scan the code! Shopping guides, electronic carriers! Do you need tickets for today’s movie! …”

  dwOchr

Wei Shi summoned a robot with rabbit ears over.

Wu Jin poked his head out and looked around. There were many people standing beside the pet shop, “Wow… how about I take the Little Pterosaur and line up first!”

 

Wei Shi nodded. “Come here.” z0f7 k

The man leaned against the suspension car, his strong fingers with their gun calluses adjusting Wu Jin’s sunglasses and pressing down the fluffy curls.

Wu Jin’s terminal sent out a tiny static sound. The man was satisfied, “Go.”

 

Wu Jin hugged the little Pterosaur and squeezed around the crowd. It wasn’t until he reached the end of the line that he remembered where the tiny static sound had come from: Two weeks ago, in the Floating City laboratory, the big boss had installed a chip into his terminal. FnCPdm

Although, functionally, the chip may actually be no different from Secretary Qu’s child loss prevention watch…

 

There were many little children in the line. Some kneaded and played with little white rabbits, some spoke with little hamsters, and others smiled and waved to Wu Jin. There were others who wanted to play with the little Pterosaur’s wings––they were soon dragged away and taught a lesson by their parents.

“How young.” A father with a small child sighed emotionally at Wu Jin. GBm25K

 

When Wu Jin finally reached the head of the line, a middle-aged woman handed him a registration form, “Fill it in before you go!”

Wu Jin accepted the form.

  gNd2 r

Baby’s name.

Wu Jin only realized now that he hadn’t given his pet a name. He could only fill in ‘Little Pterosaur’.

Baby’s age. GfJXFd

Wu Jin carefully filled in ‘9 months and 5 days’ according to the information on the adoption form.

 

Parent’s name.

Wu Jin wrote his name, but there was another black space beside it. In the 31st century, it seemed that pets had two owners… Wu Jin quickly looked at the reference form where both boxes were filled in. Wu Jin suddenly understood. It should be an extra emergency contact person in case the master couldn’t be contacted. Wu Jin moved the pen and wrote ‘Wei Shi’. 9lTdPE

After filling in the form, Wu Jin followed the crowd and handed it in. A 20 year old nurse intern was collecting the forms, and she froze for a second when she saw Wu Jin. 6aeWQN

Wu Jin happily held out the little Pterosaur.

The nurse: “Okay, okay. This little friend wants to bring their pet to the park, right? I’ll register for you––”

  f3jpnh

Her colleague to one side was staring at the words ‘Little Pterosaur’. They suddenly came back to their senses and quickly stood up with Wu Jin apologetically, “Sir, sorry. This is the line for the Blue Elephant Kindergarten!”

“There’s an interview in the park today. There wasn’t enough space, so we used the front of the pet shop! I’m so sorry. Pet owners need to go through the back door. I’ll take you.”

“!!!” Wu Jin quickly gathered up the little Pterosaur. He was really embarrassed, like a fool who’d just been released out of the Crosson Show. OaAnev

According to common sense, the nurse should have returned the form immediately, but the young woman was reluctant to give it up, trembling and struggling, looking as though she wanted to sing any second now.

 

Parents: Wu Jin, Wei Shi.

  S95VUs

Her colleagues reminded her hurriedly, “Hurry, they’re waiting.”

 

Suddenly, they were cast in shadow.

A tall, powerful man reached out. Even though he was wearing sunglasses, his indifferent expression could be seen, and his aura was cold. ZMIaNn

The young woman was very eager to survive and handed over the form in a hurry.

 

Wei Shi bowed his head and looked down, and the lines of his face loosened slightly. Without waiting for Wu Jin to come back to his senses, the man had already quickly folded up the form and placed it in his pocket. He made a gesture for silence to the young woman, his lips curving up slightly as he pulled Wu Jin out.

  TXKydr

The young woman nodded anxiously.

The two disappeared into the crowd.

The young woman looked off in a daze for a full 10 seconds before jumping out of her chair.

  KVlhLs

God Wei was so handsome! Little Witch was so soft and gentle!

Just now––he’d folded it up, put it into his pocket, and held hands––

Holy shit, who told you to push for the Scarf CP every day?! Scarf CP!!! sE mAF

It was real!! They’d really hit on a real one ahhhhhh!!

 

The Blue Elephant Kindergarten team stalled for a second and then moved on.

Wei Shi handed Wu Jin the mask that he’d just bought and ‘walked’ his lover all the way to the entrance to the pet shop that had only a few scattered customers that day. q6CnDw

 

The young store manager welcomed the two of them warmly and gave them a report after finishing a body mass index test for the Pterosaur, “This little fellow is very energetic. It’s genetically modified, and its brain development is much higher than that of normal Peteinosaurus. Yeah? You’re saying that it’s lonely? Yes, Pterosaurs have their own ecological groups, and their individual behaviors are related… I’ll perform another test.”

 

They took the elevator upstairs and opened up the ‘Late Triassic period’ pet greenhouse, where three small pterosaurs that were smaller than the palm of one’s hand fluttered around happily. orgxdQ

“Ginkgo! Don’t jump at the guests––” The store manager laughed and scolded, “They’re called Ginkgo, White Fruit, and Grandchild.”

 

The little Pterosaur looked curious and flew forward a little. Then, it looked back at Wu Jin before flying forward a little more, then looking back at Wu Jin again.

Wu Jin smiled broadly and encouraged it forward. RU0WP2

The little Pterosaur flew up with a swish and rushed over to the other three of its kind. The four Pterosaurs briefly approached each other, sniffing each other’s scent. White Fruit was the most mischievous one, and soon started playing with the little Pterosaur’s tail, while Gingko was more wary, scolding with its long beak. Grandchild watched on secretly.

 

The little Pterosaur squawked, like a helpless transfer student.

Wei Shi suddenly asked, “Are those for sale?” d0vU2e

 

To one side of the pet greenhouse, the glass blocked the Pterosaurs’ range of activity. In the display cabinet beside the corridor were many small, bright toys. Most of them were in the shape of caterpillars, gingko fruits, and butterfly shapes. They were exquisitely designed and couldn’t be swallowed down a Pterosaur’s beak.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

The store manager nodded, “Yes, they’re toys that have been specially designed for little pterosaur pets…”

  QBv3iw

Soon, the store manager’s expression was dazed as he swiped Wei Shi’s card.

Any gadget found in these downtown pet shops were worth a lot. This handsome and rich man opened up the display cabinet directly and let the little Pterosaur pick whatever it wanted!

 

The little Pterosaur took two rubber butterflies and six miniature Plateosaurus toys. b4xFIj

Inside the pet greenhouse, the other three Pterosaurs looked jealous!

 

Wu Jin pinched the man’s tight waistline in gratitude, then rubbed the little Pterosaur’s head, “Go, you should share your new toys with your friends.”

Wei Shi: “……” zaNmPd

The little Pterosaur was in high spirits and rushed over to its new friends with the toys in its mouth. Ginkgo seemed to hesitate, but the little Pterosaur didn’t seem to remember its distrust from earlier and happily tossed a butterfly toy over.

 

Outside the greenhouse.

The pet store manager sighed silently. Credits really could solve all problems! If there was a problem that couldn’t be solved, it just meant that they hadn’t smashed enough credits at it! TyDxbB

 

The two of them left, leaving the little Pterosaur behind to play in the shop.

“Let me confirm the pet hosting package you ordered just now. Every morning and every night, our robot will go to the address… Crosson Base, Twin Towers, South Tower 7th floor to pick up and drop off ‘Little Pterosaur’ from our store.”

  AI48rj

Wu Jin confirmed that it was correct and signed his name.

The store manager had made a lot of money and was very happy as he escorted them out, “The rest of the detailed test data will come out in a week. We’ll inform you via your terminal… have a good day!”

Outside, Wu Jin was excited, “Where to next!” dGU8Nf

Wei Shi projected a virtual map and flipped it in Wu Jin’s direction, “Where do you want to go?”

 

The downtown area of this Federal city was bustling everywhere.

One hour later, Wu Jin was burping regularly, holding a large bucket of cold skewers, and stuffing his face with food, “…What time are the movie tickets… hic…” arbjdQ

The big boss looked down at his terminal and said indifferently, “Five minutes from now.”

“!!!” Wu Jin quickly stuffed a skewer into his mouth, his eyes round and wide, “Sit-sit down to eat.”

 

Wei Shi led Wu Jin to sit down, then repeated the argument the two of them had had just earlier, “Mm. I told you to just buy 20.” FotZ 6

Wu Jin quipped, “What! How would 20 be enough? We can definitely finish 40… before the movie starts!”

The big boss: “Four minutes.”

 

There were still 12 cold skewers left in the bucket. hOqurx

Wu Jin was in despair, “We really can’t sneak them in?”

The big boss nodded distinctly.

 

Wu Jin was left with a dilemma and made a difficult decision, “How about we arrive 10 minutes late. Or––” His greasy paws suddenly reached out to the big boss. IYMdkB

“……” Wei Shi’s clean and washed hands were dirtied by Wu Jin once again.

The big boss finally rolled up his sleeves, “Last time. We’ll split it in half.”

The big boss quickly cleaned up 6 skewers. He was clearly sitting on the street and gnawing at skewers with Wu Jin, but his bearing was still like that of an elegant carnivorous beast. 0W7yxh

Wu Jin had only just finished one skewer, and there were five left. He asked cleverly, “Half again?”

 

“……” Wei Shi eliminated another 3, leaving 2 skewers of chewy processed meat.

Wu Jin was overjoyed, “Half again! One for you and one for me!” 8blJhn

Wei Shi gave Wu Jin a deep look. The youth opened his mouth wide and gulped down the skewer before pouring down a mouthful of coke. Then, he showed his empty hands and expressed that he’d finished his task.

 

Wei Shi annihilated the last skewer, “Two minutes left.”

Wu Jin happily threw away the paper bucket and was just about to rush into the cinema––Wei Shi suddenly held him down and invaded the youth’s lips. 4VRMAN

 

Three minutes after the start of the film.

The late Wu Jin had to sneak in through the door in the dark while the ticket checking robot watched on.

  NDULF7

Fortunately, the screening hall was spacious and comfortable, and the audience was seated very far apart. On the screen was the horror film Wu Jin had chosen, <Cursed Puppets vs Wild Zombies>.

“We shouldn’t have kissed just now.” Wu Jin lowered his voice and complained.

Wei Shi: “Shouldn’t have bought skewers.”

Wu Jin: “Shouldn’t have kissed!” ailpte

Wei Shi: “Who was the one who said to continue for another minute.”

Wu Jin was going crazy, “!! You coerced me into saying it!”

Wei Shi: “That’s not important.” Jksn1Q

On the screen, the cursed puppets began to beat up the zombies. The 5D seats shook wildly, colliding with each other, and the girls in the front row screamed shrilly.

Wu Jin waited until the chair wasn’t moving to ask, “Why didn’t you let me watch <Chamber of Secrets: Ancient Snake Spirits>!”

Wei Shi: “Secret chamber, claustrophobic.”

Wu Jin: “! I don’t have that.” MoaGPd

Wei Shi: “Mm. I do.”

 

The screams in the front row stopped for a moment. The zombies suddenly got up, gnawing crazily on the cursed blood red puppets. In the screening room, screams broke through their eardrums again, and the chairs were constantly tumbling, tormenting the audience that had to put on seat belts.

Wu Jin was shaken around and belched out a coke-scented breath, “Hiccups… they won’t stop!” cZtAJK

Wei Shi: “Give me your hand.”

 

Wu Jin immediately looked at the big boss with new eyes. He was really worthy of being the big boss! He was cultured, could govern a city, could fight with guns, and he even knew about this kind of small folk prescription, pinching his fingers to stop the hiccups!

On the screen, the zombies and puppets died together. veTj6W

Inside the dark cinema, their ten fingers were finally clasped together.

 

Five minutes later.

Wu Jin whispered, “It’s useless. I’m still hiccuping! Can you stop hiccups with hand pinching?” iu0IUF

Wei Shi: “No. I just wanted to.”

The movie ended two hours later.

Wu Jin was in high spirits and dragged the big boss to play at popping balloons on the street. With six months of special training, Wu Jin quickly used the air gun to hit 500 points and trade them in for a doll, “Again, again, we’ll trade one for the black cat to play with––” jxw 3y

 

The robot that calculated the points suddenly beeped and reminded them that their shooting data was abnormal. It would no longer provide them with pellets.

Wu Jin: “… That’s not fair!”

Wei Shi took over the air gun. It only had one charge left. 2RtobN

 

The trigger was pulled neatly, the man’s actions not sloppy at all. The bullet popped out, breaking the tiny shriveled balloon that was the size of a grain of rice right in the middle of the target panel.

500 points.

Wu Jin quickly traded the points in for a second cat doll while the robot announced, “Abnormal shooting data, abnormal shooting data. Professionals suspected of participating in the game––” GCu1Nd

 

Wu Jin pulled the big boss with him and ran away, “Run run run run––”

 

…… pb1 qH

 

The lights came on.

The black cat who’d had all its toys confiscated by the big boss received a gift from Wu Jin, which greatly increased its friendship level towards Wu Jin.

The week passed by quickly after that.

When the weekend came, the bus from <Go! Popular Youth!> that had come to pick up the trainees stopped at the entrance of the Crosson base.

Before getting on the bus, Wu Jin said goodbye to the little Pterosaur, Brother Rabbit, and the black cat one by one. Then, his terminal beeped. AW aT9

 

The owner of the pet shop was on the other side of the communication.

“Mister Wu, your pet test results have come out.”

“All indicators are normal. Its sleeping is normal, and it gets along well with others. You said that it slept until noon––when did it go to sleep? What abnormal behaviors did it have before it went to sleep?” S8a21C

 

“It wrecked a pillow? I see. It probably fought too much with the pillow and therefore slept quite late. Ha, maybe it was the pillow that started it first.”

“Anyway… your pet isn’t aggressive. The Peteinosaurus breed has a good sense of smell. Was there anything wrong with the pillow?”


Juurensha: ….did I falsely accuse Big Boss about the pillow??? Also their date was adorable (although what kind of movie is Cursed Puppets vs. Zombies, it sounds more like a ride….)
xiin: if i remember correctly, that pillow was related to.. plot. and lol yeah that movie title… kinda matches with the really terrible fanfiction little witch keeps reading

    Thank you for the chapter💕

  4. Awwwww, their date is so cute!!! I am extremely suspicious about the pillow though, maybe it has some chemicals/weird chip in it that can harm Wu Jin and that can make little Pterosaur extremely sleepy/may have negative effect on their health?

  5. Ahh their date is just so meng 😍😍

    Looks like Zoe already connected most of the dots ah. I knew it was already suspicious when a guy mentioned “so young” lol 😂 so there is really something on that pillow case (prolly a spy bug or something)
