Chapter 3701 Cat Doll

Maybe it’s to distinguish him from Mr. Rabbit?
Lu Xiaoxiao guessed.

But the effect is good.

The store manager's attire caught Lu Xiaoxiao's attention.

It has a special feeling of a character in a fairy tale.

very funny.

It’s also very immersive.

……

"so cute."

Lu Xiaoxiao carefully reached out and touched Mr. Rabbit's ear.

It’s a bit regrettable that Mr. Rabbit’s ears are not soft.

……

Now that he has met Mr. Rabbit, Lu Xiaoxiao begins to look for Alice.

The girl walked hurriedly in the bookstore with a surprised expression on her face.

……

Xiao Xiao's eyes swept across the books on the bookshelf.

They are all Alice's Adventures in Wonderland in various versions and languages.

The bookshelves are neatly stacked.

The store manager must like this story very much.

Xiao Xiao slightly curved his eyebrows.

He casually pulled out a book.

……

Oh.

very lucky.

It was a language he didn't recognize.

Even more fortunately, the book has beautiful illustrations.

Still in color.

He can easily understand the story without knowing the language of the book.

……

Xiao Xiao put the book in his hand back to its original place.

He picked up another book at random.

The next second, he was slightly stunned.

I made eye contact with a cat with golden vertical pupils.

This is……

Xiao Xiao tilted his head slightly.

Oh.

A stuffed cat.

If most people are not prepared, they can easily be frightened.

Xiao Xiao smiled slightly.

He actually likes such unexpected little surprises.

He reached out and poked the stuffed cat's head.

soft.

……

"what-"

The girl's scream stopped abruptly.

Xiao Xiao looked over immediately.

"Deer?"

……

Lu Xiaoxiao covered her mouth.

Hearing her name, she subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.

……

Xiao Xiao quickly walked to Lu Xiaoxiao's side.

In the empty space on the bookshelf in front of the girl.

He saw a familiar figure.

A cat with golden pupils.

The posture was different from the cat he had just seen.

This shows that the store manager really put a lot of thought into this exhibition.

Even putting a few dolls on the bookshelf was not done in a perfunctory manner.

The expressions of both cats are very expressive.

With a somewhat prying and playful smile.

……

"That's a doll."

Xiao Xiao smiled at the girl.

"Isn't it cute?"

……

H-Cute?
Lu Xiaoxiao was shocked by the adjective before she could fully digest the word "doll".

How cute is it? !

She just took down a book and looked up to see a pair of golden vertical pupils.

It was amazing that she covered her mouth in time.

Although her scream had already come out.

Fortunately it didn't last long.

……

However, after realizing that it was just a stuffed cat, Lu Xiaoxiao's rapidly beating heart slowly returned to normal.

She looked at the stuffed cat.

“…I think it’s still a lot weirder.”

Lu Xiaoxiao muttered.

Look at this cat's expression...

A smile that is not a smile...

And he looked like he was looking around...

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't find the other person cute at all.

……

"is it?"

Xiao Xiao bent down and picked up the book that fell on the ground for the girl.

"Want to watch again?"

he asked the girl.

……

"what?"

"want."

After a moment of stunned silence, Lu Xiaoxiao hurriedly reached out and took the book from Master Xiao's hand.

"Thank you."

Lu Xiaoxiao's cheeks flushed a little.

How embarrassing! She was frightened by a stuffed cat.

I was so scared that I dropped the book in my hand...

She didn't even realize it until Master Xiao made a move.

She had never thought of herself as so timid before.

……

Lu Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes and looked at the book.

But there was no reflection of the book in his eyes.

She still felt a little humiliated.

she…..
An idea flashed in her mind.

She finally thought of a new topic.

"Master Xiao, do you think this cat is cute?"

……

Xiao Xiao's eyes swept across the stuffed cat and then fell on the girl.

"is acceptable."

"Quite cute."

He was a little surprised when he saw the toy cat for the first time.

……

Lu Xiaoxiao nodded.

Oh.

Quite cute……

She tilted her head and looked at the stuffed cat.

……

Ok.

Watching for a long time...

It seems a little cute.

……

Lu Xiaoxiao thought reluctantly.

The main reason was that she was really scared by this stuffed cat before.

Who would have thought that a cat would pop out after taking out the book?

Or a cat smiling at itself in a very weird way.

Under the bookstore's dim lights and the shadows of the bookshelves, the cat looked like an evildoer in the dark.

Waiting for stupid prey to take the bait.

Uh……

She didn't mean to say she was stupid.

She was simply describing a feeling.

.....
"There's more than one cat on the shelf."

Xiao Xiao reminded the girls.

"You can pick up a few more books to read."

"Cats are the same cats."

“But they all move differently.”

……

"Y-really?"

Lu Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly and nodded.

But she was also somewhat surprised and amazed.

"Wow~"

“The store manager is awesome.”

The amazement in her heart grew stronger.

"This……"

She glanced at the cat doll.

“He’s thought of it.”

Even if it's just a small detail.

But it’s the small details that come together to create a big surprise.

……

Lu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath.

“No wonder the poster…”

She was somewhat dazed.

She had previously felt that the content of the exhibition did not seem to match the impression given by the poster.

Now it seems……

Sure enough, they match.

.....
Lu Xiaoxiao randomly picked a few books -
Since Master Xiao specifically told her about the little surprise hidden on the bookshelf, she naturally couldn't leave at this time.

.....
The occasional cat doll appears like a reward for them.

No.

Although Lu Xiaoxiao tried to appreciate the cuteness of the cat doll.

pity.

The effect is not very obvious.

She still felt that the appearance of the cat doll was more of a mockery of them than a reward.

That expression...

Isn't it obvious?
It's closer to ridicule than praise.

……

but……

Just as Master Xiao said, every cat doll that appears is different.

Has different forms.

Even the facial expressions are slightly different, and not easily noticed.

.....
Lu Xiaoxiao: ...

She poked the cat doll's face.

Why does it feel like I'm playing some kind of collection game?
Once you have collected all the target objects, you can fulfill a wish or exchange them for some luxurious prizes.

.....
but.

This is just a bookstore.

Just a bookstore that was hosting an exhibition.

Although the exhibition was better than she expected.

But it's not really a collection of games.

After all, the protagonist of this exhibition is…
It's books.

……

"Wow."

Lu Xiaoxiao was flipping through a book.

Eyes are round.

At the same time, make a soft interjection with your mouth.

There really are many versions of Alice in Wonderland.

Every word is very beautiful...
