On the Ark

"I promised you that I will let you see Serena, don't worry." Lin Ye rubbed Ifrit's head, "If you can't do it, you can trouble me again."

"...Since you've already said that." Ifrit turned her head and pouted, "Then let's just believe you once."

"Don't worry, but there is one more thing."

"what?"

"Please don't speak in such a misleading way next time, although I know this may be the tradition of your Sarkaz people." Lin Ye said seriously, "If Hemo finds out that I lent you my mobile phone to call Serena, maybe you just scolded me. But if what you just said is heard by Hemer, I will probably be destroyed by humanity."

……

After dismissing Ifrit for the time being, and having dinner again, after returning to the room, Lin Ye took out his workbook after a long absence.He has always kept the workbook by his side. After all, in a sense, the contents of this workbook are the official work that Rhodes Island entrusted to him.

The first "patient" recorded in the workbook was Nightingale. Half a month ago, Lin Ye had already written the word "cured" on the progress of the disease, which meant that the treatment of Nightingale was over.And now, his patient is Ifrit on the second page.He has never perfected Ifrit's information because he doesn't know how to write it.Compared to Nightingale's mental damage, Ifrit's irritability was more caused by physical pain, so Lin Ye didn't know what to do.After thinking about it, Lin Ye wrote the names of Hemo and Sereya on the progress of the disease, and then circled their names, touching the paper with the tip of the pen, thinking about something.

"What are you thinking about?" ACE patted Lin Ye's shoulder, then put a can of beer in front of him, "Would you like some?"

"Uh, thanks, I don't drink."

ACE says, "Alcohol is good for thinking, didn't you know that?"

"Do people who like to drink always find so many reasons?"

ACE laughed loudly: "Yeah, I was seen through by you, so do you want to have some?"

Lin Ye thought for a while, nodded, and took the beer. Before he could open it, he heard ACE say, "Actually, I really admire you."

"Admiration me?" Lin Ye was a little surprised, "What do you admire me for?"

"Your personality, this is probably the reason why you are popular with women."

Lin Ye: "..."

"I'm not joking, but I really think so." ACE said, "Both Nightingale and Ifrit are girls with bad personalities. Nightingale may be okay, but Ifrit's temper It can be said to be vile. An old guy like me may not care, but many people on the island can't stand her temper."

"Fortunately, she is just a little skinny."

"Skin?"

"Naughty and mischievous." Lin Ye explained, "Essentially he is a very good kid."

"This is why I admire you. You are clearly in your early twenties, but you are like this... You said you used to be a veterinarian? Have you ever raised a lot of cats and dogs?"

"Ah."

"Then do you regard them as your cats and dogs?" ACE asked with a smile.

Lin Ye was stunned.

"What's wrong? Did I guess it?"

"...Maybe." Lin Ye said softly as if he had remembered something, "Maybe."

Like a key inserted into a lock, ACE's words opened Lin Ye's long-sealed memory box and brought him back to his summer vacation in the first year of junior high school.

That year, the first cat in his life died of illness. He wrapped the cat in newspaper and buried it under the laurel tree in front of his house.At that time, he experienced the pain of losing his "relative" for the first time, and he just squatted in the yard looking at the osmanthus tree blankly all day long, imagining that the cat he picked out from the garbage dump would suddenly die. ran out from behind the osmanthus tree, licking his hand while meowing gracefully.

However, this incident did not happen. On the contrary, the neighbors saw this scene and spread the rumor that the kid in the Lin family had autism.

The mother did not allow his son to develop another autism in the face of heart disease. After exhausting all means, he finally brought Lin Ye to a cattery.

"Just buy another cat. This time I will buy you a breed cat. Don't stare at that tree in the future. You are not stupid." That's what my mother said.

So, Lin Ye browsed the entire cattery, but couldn't choose a cat he wanted.Although he admits that those breeds of cats are more beautiful and docile than the white cats he picked up from the garbage dump, he just doesn't like them. He always feels that those cages are stuffed with puppet toys, not life.Until before leaving, he saw a dirty gray cat in a cage outside the cattery. At that moment, he couldn't walk.

"This is a stray cat." The mother said helplessly, "I brought you here specially, so why can't you pick a better-looking cat of a better breed? Why do you want to raise a stray cat again? Bought for money."

The boss said that he found this cat in the back alley two months ago. The big cat gave birth to a litter of kittens, but only this one survived.Strange to say, it is obviously a stray cat, but it has a pretty good personality, and its meow is not as loud as other stray cats.Moreover, although he is thin and small, he has never lost a fight with other cats.If you really want it, you can sell it cheap.

So Lin Ye took the dirty kitten home.When he took it away, the boss said that the cat was a male cat, so Lin Ye named it Brother.This was Lin Ye's second cat, and the only cat brought back from the cattery.It accompanied Lin Ye through the difficult summer vacation after the death of the first cat. It was not until Lin Ye's mother took him for vaccination a few months later that the doctor told them that his younger brother was a female cat.

"What are you thinking about?" ACE's voice woke Lin Ye from his contemplation.

"It's nothing." Lin Ye shook his head, "I just remembered the thing about raising cats in the past."

"Before becoming a veterinarian?"

"Yes?"

"How many do you have?"

"Seven."

ACE showed a surprised expression: "This is too exaggerated, where are they now?"

Lin Ye shook his head, but did not speak.

"Really?" ACE nodded, and then said with a smile, "Don't be too sad, maybe they will be reborn as adults in the next life, and then come back to you."

Lin Ye's expression was weird: "You should use this kind of words to coax children."

"Hahahaha, aren't you just a child?"
