Chapter 138 Domineering, Heavy Rain

Xiao Xiao looked at the pearl beetle in the fish tank, and then at the deep-fried carp in the glass jar.

Although the fish tank is large, it would be too cramped to put two bighead carp in it when there is already a beetle.

Well, the mullet will have to stay in the glass jar for now.

If only he could treat the mullet the same way he treats the beaded beetle.

Buy another fish tank and put a small fish in it.

At most, Zhang Bo and the others were just surprised that there were two small fish in each of the two large fish tanks.

However, the minnow is not as good-tempered as the pearl beetle. Although the minnow always looks like it is smiling, it is the most domineering.

Therefore, there are no other fish, shrimps or other creatures in the lake where they live.

Fortunately, they are also vegetarians and eat aquatic plants such as water plants.

Otherwise, it is definitely countless times more dangerous than piranhas.

But in that case, he might not have caught them and raised them.

Even if they catch it, they might just eat it.

……

Therefore, if you raise black carp like you raise pearl cichlids, the outcome will definitely be that every time you put a fish in, one will die.

Thinking about the fish that had just been put in and floated dead to the surface not long after, he thought it would be better for him to let those fish go and not commit unnecessary sins of killing.

I just don’t know why ordinary fish can’t coexist peacefully with the mullet. After all, the difference in their fighting power is too great. So, can the pearl beetle, which is also a monster, “live in the same room” with them?
This is worth a try.

No matter how docile the pearlfish is, it is not so easy to bully.

Moreover, its size is much larger than that of ordinary mullet.

This is all we can do for now.

At this time, Xiao Xiao also felt some inconvenience of living in the dormitory.

However, even though it was a bit inconvenient, he had never thought of moving out of the dormitory, at least not now.

On the one hand, there are more courses in the first and second years, so it is convenient to live in school. On the other hand, he doesn't want to be separated from Zhang Bo and others because of this.

……

Xiao Xiao knocked on the wall of the glass jar. The minnows seemed to have adapted to Xiao Xiao's occasional movements and were not too panicked. The two minnows swam up and down.

“Chuckle~Chuckle~”

You guys just stay here for now.

Xiao Xiao smiled. The laughter of the minnow sounded weird at first, but after hearing it many times, he found it quite cute.

……

"Ding~"

The crisp sound made Xiao Xiao's smile deepen.

When he woke up this morning, he found that the pearl fish had spit out another pearl.

The round and translucent pearls sparkle with a simple and elegant halo, and the rippling water makes the pearls look even more charming and dreamy.

Xiao Xiao carefully scooped out the pearl with a net bag, wiped it clean with a soft cloth, played with it in his hand for a while, and then carefully put the pearl into a glass jar on the side.

The two pearls are the same size, and their halos blend with each other, bursting out with an even more dazzling brilliance.

Xiao Xiao was dazzled for a moment.

It's really beautiful.

……

It rained heavily that day.

Xiao Xiao was walking back to school holding an umbrella.

In order to appease Taotie's depression and madness for not being able to eat the bighead carp, Xiao Xiao went home again.

I bought a lot of purple wisteria cakes and purple wisteria cakes.

The face of a certain gluttonous old man, which had been gloomy for many days, finally cleared up.

Feifei was also smiling happily while eating.

In short, everyone is happy?
Not at all!
Xiao Xiao had never expected that there would be a sudden rainstorm on his way back to school, so he carefully avoided the splashes from the speeding cars.

……

Yes, he has an umbrella.

This was something her grandmother forced upon her when he left.

The weather forecast this morning said there would be heavy rain today.

At that time, Xiao Xiao looked up at the clear sky and still didn't quite believe it.

just now……

It is true that in June, the child's face changes in an instant.

The sky was clear one moment, and it was pouring rain the next.

However, thanks to his grandmother's foresight, he did not become a drowned rat.

However, it was raining so hard that the splashing water soaked his trouser legs and stuck to his feet, which was obviously not a comfortable feeling. If he had known that it would rain so hard today, he would not have chosen to go out today.

It's quite pleasant to take a walk in the drizzle, but in such a heavy rain... that's just asking for trouble.

……

Taotie was lying on his head.

Ever since this guy did it once, he liked this position and would consciously climb on top of him every time.

He actually got used to it.

And Feifei was lying on his left shoulder.

Both monsters were quite comfortable.

Xiao Xiao inexplicably felt like a poor rickshaw puller.

That's not a very pleasant association.

……

However, such heavy rain reminded him of the first time he saw the Pipa Ghost.

It was raining heavily that day too. The boy walking in the rain had such a clean temperament that he didn't look like a monster...

Huh? Xiao Xiao suddenly laughed.

It turns out that not only humans can't forbid thoughts, but demons can't forbid thoughts either.

Isn’t the person walking in front with his back to him the Pipa Ghost?
Even though it was just a silhouette in the rain, his biggest features - the unchanging white shirt, jeans, and bare feet, and most importantly, the mysterious aura that was faintly visible in the rain - made Xiao Xiao recognize the other person's identity immediately.

……

The Pipa Ghost stopped.

Opposite me was a young boy sitting quietly on a chair in the station, with a transparent umbrella beside him, and streaks of water winding on the umbrella.

The young boy lowered his head, with the hood of his black hoodie on his head. The shadow cast by the brim of the hood made it impossible to see his expression.

Xiao Xiao looked carefully and found that he had black earphones in his ears.

It was obvious that the boy was immersed in his own world.

……

The Pipa Ghost sat cross-legged on the ground in front of the young boy, not caring at all about the water on the ground.

The bottom of the hem of the white shirt was directly immersed in the puddle.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

Because Pipa Ghost's white shirt had already been soaked and stuck to his back, outlining Pipa Ghost's thin and frail figure.

……

Xiao Xiao walked forward slowly and stood behind the Pipa Ghost.

The graceful and melodious pipa music sounded faintly.

The sound of the dripping rain gradually faded away, leaving only the moving sound of the pipa music.

……

Xiao Xiao calmly accepted the abrupt end of the pipa music, although there were veins twitching slightly on his forehead.

A car is coming.

Many people got off the bus, and many people got on.

The seat next to the young boy became vacant, and Xiao Xiao walked over and stood next to him.

He saw the Pipa ghost, which looked hideous and terrifying, but for some reason always made him laugh.

The young boy naturally had no reaction.

The Pipa Ghost was still happily entertaining himself as usual.

Another car came, splashing water all the way when it braked.

The young boy stood up, picked up an umbrella and walked towards the car.

……

Xiao Xiao walked to the side of the Pipa Ghost.

The Pipa Ghost, who had just laughed, was a little slow to react. He looked up and tilted his head to look at Xiao Xiao blankly.

The huge eyeballs seemed to be hanging outside the eye sockets, about to fall out.

The long tongue wrapped around his neck.

His mouth was wide open, smiling a little silly.

The Pipa ghost's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Have a drink~"

The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up slightly, and there was a smile in his eyes.

"Hello, Pipa Ghost."
