What to do when you are surrounded by sickly pretty girls?

"After all, I asked you to come here this time. How can I let you spend money again?"

"I feel like you're acting weird today."

Fujii Sarina blinked in surprise:

"She's wearing makeup and a dress, and now she's trying to get the treat."

Her face suddenly moved closer and she asked in a low voice:

"Are you interested in a boy from Toyoshima?"

"How can it be!"

Tianxue denied it without hesitation.

She's into men?

This won't be possible even in a hundred years.

"Too."

Fujii nodded and shrank his face back in agreement:

"You don't even like a guy like Okada, and you rejected him twice in a row... There aren't many handsome guys in a place like Toyoshima High School, so how can you find someone you like?"

Poor Okada, he has become a measuring tool.

Someone thought with compassion in his heart.

After sitting there and chatting for a while, the waiter brought the drinks ordered by the three of them.

"Huh? Why are those guys here too?"

The schoolgirl suddenly exclaimed, and a look of disgust appeared on her face.

Tianxue's expression was exactly the opposite:

"Is my luck so good?"

Looking at the small group of five girls who had just entered the store, Tianxue felt a surge of ecstasy in her heart!

——The girl in uniform whom I had seen in the game center before was among these five people!

It's just that the other party looks a little embarrassed;

A lot of dust can be seen on the uniform. Although it should have been cleaned, the dust in some places is very stubborn and not so easy to knock off.

There were also some grass leaves on his legs and shoes...as if he had just crawled out of the grass.

It wasn't just her, the others were in a similar situation;

The five people were talking in low voices, asking the clerk for tissues to wipe their faces while sorting their clothes. Everyone looked exhausted.

"Who are [those guys] you're talking about?"

Tianxue pretended to be calm and looked away, then asked the school girl:

"Is he someone you know?"

"Oh, forget it, it's just those dirty guys in the corner."

The schoolgirl bit the straw and answered with disdain:

“They hand out flyers on campus all day, saying they want to protect stray cats… but they are all hypocrites.”

"Hypocrite?"

Tianxue asked doubtfully:

"What do you mean?"

"Oh, I have heard of those people you mentioned;"

Fujii looked at the five people who had already sat down, slapped his palm, and said suddenly:

"They are a spontaneous animal protection group that specializes in rescuing stray cats. They occasionally upload some videos online, but it seems that they don't get much attention."

"I see, I think some of them are pretty cute... why are they not getting any attention?"

Tianxue glanced at the target person out of the corner of her eye;

I saw that the other person's face was full of frustration, as if he had just experienced some major setback.

"Because they only take pictures of cats and rarely take pictures of themselves."

The schoolgirl gloated:

"And the photos are super amateurish, without even a filter... Our school does not allow photos and videos of people wearing uniforms to be uploaded to the Internet without permission, and they don't dare to wear eye-catching clothes, so how could anyone be interested in watching them?"

It turned out to be the case.

Tianxue immediately understood the other party's situation:

In fact, similar stray cat rescue groups are not uncommon on the blue planet.

Most of these teams are privately established, and the funding is usually borne by individuals or shared by all members;

If you are lucky, you may find a cat food brand or pet store sponsoring your business, but in most cases you have to pay out of your own pocket.

"As for why they are called hypocrites..."

At this point, the schoolgirl's face became a little gloomy:

"Because one of my friends has seen with his own eyes that some of them took sharp knives and used cruel methods to hurt the cats they caught!"

"Just those little girls?"

Fujii looked a little unconvinced:

"Do they have the courage?"

"Wait a moment! I'll ask my friend to bring the evidence over."

The schoolgirl was anxious;

In order to prove that what he said was true, he immediately took out his cell phone and sent a text message to his friend.

"It's okay, I'll go ask in person and find out."

Fujii finished the rest of his drink in one gulp, stood up carelessly, and walked over there.

——This is one against five.

Tianxue watched her approach the five girls, and her heart was in suspense:

Fujii is really brave...isn't he afraid of being at a disadvantage?

"Look, here's the evidence!"

After a while, the girl from Toyoshima High School held her phone in front of her:

"Well, I didn't lie, did I? Look at this black cat's ears!"

Tianxue took a closer look and saw that the black cat in the phone had a missing piece of its left ear;

Moreover, the wound was very smooth and did not look like it was caused by a bite from another cat. It was obvious that it was cut off by someone with a sharp weapon.

"Wait... I seem to have seen this kind of wound somewhere."

Her brows suddenly frowned:

——By the way, isn’t this TNR?

At Blue Star, TNR is an internationally accepted method of stray cat management, which aims to control the reproduction of stray cats and reduce their number;

Its full name is Trap-Neuter-Return, which means capture (Trap), sterilization (Neuter), and release (Return), which actually represents three steps.

Since stray cats often wander around, making it difficult to identify which one they are, the final choice was to cut their ears short.

This is mainly done to avoid some unlucky cats from being caught and sterilized again...but because it does cause harm to the cat's body, some people think that doing this is animal abuse.

"Huh? Is that the reason?"

After hearing her explanation, the schoolgirl was stunned:

"You're trying to protect these cats by hurting them?"

“Well, this should be a very popular practice.”

Tianxue did not comment on this management style from a personal standpoint;

I just explained the principle to her:

"Although I don't know how it's done in every continent, it should be quite common in Dongzhou."

"——I'm back."

After communicating with the five people, Fujii returned to his seat with a lollipop in his mouth;

Then he took the lollipop out of his mouth, looked at the two of them and smiled:

"Those five people seem to be good kids, but they are all very timid;"

"Let alone using knives to torture cats, I think they don't even dare to yell at the cats. After all, many stray cats are quite fierce and will bite you at any time."

"..."

The schoolgirl probably knew she was in the wrong and turned away.

"Actually, it's like this..."

Tianxue repeated what he had just said to Fujii again.

"Yeah, I got it!"

Fujii seemed to remember something:

"Aren't you talking about Sakura Cat?"

She took out her phone and pulled up a photo, then gestured to the two of them:

"Look."

Tianxue leaned over and found that the cat in the photo also had a wound on its ear;

But unlike the previous black cat, this cat's ears were not cut short, but had a small corner cut off, and the shape of the wound looked a bit like cherry blossom petals.

"In the neon area, especially in my hometown, you can often see these cherry blossom cats on the streets..."

While the two were talking, the small group of five people on the other side seemed to have finished their rest and all stood up from their seats.

"——I asked, they are going to catch cats later;"

Fujii noticed Tianxue's gaze and suggested while biting his lollipop:

"It seems quite interesting... How about we go over and take a look?"

Tianxue would certainly not refuse this proposal.

Rather, she almost held Fujii's face and gave him a big kiss!

——Now she is worrying about how to get closer to her goal!

This sentence really comes at the right time!

"Huh? Are you guys coming to help too?"

The uniformed girl who had met Tianxue once before raised her head in surprise. She seemed to be the leader of this small team:

"But... we often have to move around in various places, and our faces and clothes are easily dirty. It's not suitable for fashionable beauties like you..."

As she spoke, her eyes kept lingering on Tianxue's face.

And Tianxue was also extremely nervous;

Even though she had made adequate preparations, there was still a possibility of being exposed.

Now we can only hope that the other party’s memory and eyesight are not that good.

Maybe God heard her wish.

The uniformed girl looked at her for a while, then finally looked away;
