When Delphinium woke up again, she found that her mother was already making dinner.
And before he knew it, he had fallen sideways into Russell's arms.
Fortunately, the sofa was wide enough to accommodate two people lying on their sides... so she wouldn't squeeze Russell into a catcake, or turn over and fall off the sofa.
Russell was hugging himself behind him, and the fluffy cat tail was resting on his thigh.
Russell must have felt the change in his breathing rhythm, and he immediately noticed that he had woken up.
"I had a good nap."
Above his head, Russell chuckled softly.
Then Delphinium felt her ear being gently bitten by Russell. She shook her ear gently, but failed to free it, so she stopped caring.
"...How many hours have I slept?"
She felt a little headache from sleeping, so she closed her eyes and yawned loudly before she felt a little more comfortable.
"Four hours."
Russell said softly: "It's quite good. You need to take a rest to catch up on your sleep."
"When did you wake up?"
"I woke up when your head was smashed off."
Russell couldn't help but laugh. He let go of Delphinium's ears and laughed: "With a bang, it hit my chest. I was so scared that I shivered violently.
"You were not awakened by me at that time, so I knew you were very tired."
"Hmm..."
Delphinium snorted, slowly turned over from the sofa, and got up from Russell's arms.
But she didn't leave the sofa immediately. Instead, she put her backhand on Russell's shoulders and pushed him down on the sofa.
Russell subconsciously wanted to struggle, but he didn't break away at all. He and Delphinium were stunned for a moment.
Only then could she feel that her appetite was so much larger than Russell's, and it really showed.
Although Delphinium's spiritual relative is a Samoyed, who is much larger than a desert cat, the two are actually about the same height...so much so that Delphinium sometimes forgets that Russell's spiritual relative is a small cat.
Only then did Delphinium realize that she was so much stronger than Russell...
Recalling the fear and fear she felt after receiving the "suicide note" two weeks ago, her resentment suddenly surged up again.
He was talking about the Tower of Babel, the Elf Transformation Ceremony...he was talking about a bunch of board of directors conspiracies, the world's resources were running out, secrets like mages and the dream world - who cares about that kind of stuff!
The most hateful thing is that he said "I like you" before saying "Farewell".
If she hadn't said this, she wouldn't be so scared.
Delphinium easily pushed the soft-bodied Russell down, leaned over and bit Russell's neck hard.
It was just like when Russell left a mark on his neck when the delphinium left a mark on his neck before he was about to assassinate Kamarthur - it was just a little bit close to breaking it.
She hoped that Russell could use this to think of that incident... and then think of that letter.
...At least don't let her remind this stupid cat in turn.
The feeling of being bitten on his neck made Russell dare not move.
Why are you so sleepy...
He could feel that Delphinium seemed to be a little angry at him suddenly... but he was not sure why he suddenly became angry when he was so soft and happy when he just woke up.
But because he can also sense that this anger does not come from malice and resentment, it is more like a "lost and recovered anger"...
Maybe it was a nightmare, maybe.
Russell thought helplessly, and let the delphinium bite him without moving.
Sure enough, the delphinium soon lost its temper.
She licked the spot she bit with some worry: "It seems a little red... Do you want to disinfect it with alcohol?"
"It's okay..."
Russell in turn comforted Delphinium.
But being licked several times by the delphinium made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Although he had learned about it in spiritual studies, it was a gesture of friendship from canine spirits, and he also knew that it was an instinct of pets.
But instinctively, you still feel a little uncomfortable when someone licks you.
To describe it, it's like the feeling of being hugged by a friend with a very hot body temperature when the summer heat is about to reach a fever pitch.
So Russell licked Delphinium's cheek in turn.
Delphinium's face turned red immediately. But she snorted, stretched out her finger in a playful manner, and pressed Russell's mouth.
Russell, who was pinned by her on the sofa, also licked Delphinium's fingertips. In the blink of an eye, he licked each of the five fingers that Delphinium stretched out.
"So dirty."
"It's not you who reached out."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Unlike real cats and dogs, they went to school -
For cats, the superior person licks the fur of the inferior person; for dogs, the language is the opposite.
In the same way, a cat raising its tail is alert and unhappy, while purring is comfortable and relaxing; but in dog language this is also the opposite.
Therefore, when cats and dogs are kept together, sometimes they will fight all the time, and sometimes they will get together in an unusually harmonious way... This is the impact of language differences.
Spirituality syndrome will give humans the instinct of their own spirituality, but this instinct can be overcome. The specific method is to obtain knowledge from "spiritology". This is "common knowledge" that must be learned from elementary school
After learning "similar" knowledge, this misunderstanding due to cognitive differences will be eliminated.
For example, some spiritual people may not be able to eat chocolate or drink alcohol, some spiritual people may feel nauseated when eating meat, some spiritual people may have particularly sensitive senses of smell or hearing, and some spiritual people may like darkness...
Although the symptoms of paraphilia are completely random, the general range can be guessed - once it is accurate to the family or species, it will basically not be much different. With rational cognition, it can naturally be resolved in advance.
Many unnecessary disputes.
Russell and Delphinium actually both knew what the other's actions meant to the other's spiritual relatives, but they also pretended not to know in a tacit understanding.
"You two, stop making trouble and come over to eat!"
The aunt passing by glanced at the posture of the two people and casually asked: "Remember to wash your hands."
"Okay-"
"……oh."
At this time, the two of them woke up and realized that Delphinium's parents were still at home, so they each responded.
After Russell got off the sofa, he did some soft exercises on the spot and moved his somewhat stiff body.
...Could it be because you are afraid of waking me up?
Delphinium looked at Russell who seemed to be feeling a little sore, and immediately felt worried and went over to pinch the back of Russell's neck.
Feeling the back of his neck being pinched, Russell narrowed his eyes comfortably at first, but soon realized something.
"You are wiping your saliva."
"No!"
Delphinium became angry and stretched out her fingers to rub Russell's shoulder twice: "That's it!"
"Hello--"
"What are you doing? Didn't I wash your clothes? Why did I wipe them?"
"Then I need to wipe my neck. There is also your saliva on my neck..."
Russell said that he was about to rub his head into Delphinium's arms.
The aunt who was passing by carrying onions and garlic floated back again and emphasized in a heavier voice: "Go and wash your hands!"
"oh……"
"knew."
So the two of them washed their hands obediently and waited neatly at the table.
There are two main nodes for daily news.
One is the morning news from 7 a.m. to 9:30, and then the news starts at 5 p.m. and will be broadcast until 8 p.m.
About one-third of the content is repeated, and the more important news from the last half day will be mentioned again.
Among them, the morning news usually focuses on serious matters such as accidents, wanted arrests, recruitment policy adjustments, and price changes, so that people can receive some important information while commuting to work, and at the same time, it can be used as BGM to adjust the sleepy state; while the evening news is accompanied by
Dinner is usually more joyful or interesting news, such as someone who committed a certain death, or a dog got up and down a tree, or a couple had a quarrel and beat a neighbor, etc.
By the time they were sitting at the dinner table, the rerun of the morning news had already gone on for five minutes.
On the evening news, this is quite a surprise.
"Another girl committed suicide by jumping off a building..."
While Russell poured himself the iced Coke prepared by his aunt, he said casually: "This is the fourth one this month."
The reporter on the TV was Miss Bingshui. The bloody body behind her was marked and being cleaned up by the staff.
She was explaining the details of the matter seriously to the audience.
It was as if she had seen some hallucination... She didn't run or pause. She just walked past calmly, falling like a sleepwalker.
The same cause of death as Miss Bai Xue.
Now it seems that there may be something fishy about Miss Bai Xue's death...
"Well, the key is that each time is exactly seven days apart...the 1st, the 8th, the 15th, the 22nd. It's such a coincidence no matter how you say it."
Delphinium thought seriously: "We must consider whether there are illegal psychics involved. This is a bit like some kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder, or special conditions."
"It could also be the devil."
Russell added: "Recently, prices have increased, unemployment has increased, and the frequency of demons has increased."
"But the devil has not been discovered for a whole month? If it is really a devil, it should have hatched..."
"Eat first, you can talk about work at work tomorrow!"
The aunt said angrily while placing a huge plate of grilled tomahawk steak in front of Russell.
Delphinium's eyes suddenly widened: "Mom, where is mine?"
"Why are you so anxious? I'll show you the ultramarine first, and then I'll share it with you. I might not be able to eat a third of the ultramarine, and it won't still be yours in the end."
The gentle woman wearing round-framed glasses and furry white dog ears pushed up her glasses and said proudly: "Auntie, you did a good job!"
