Of course, Zhang Zian was happy to see soone that wanted to buy his cats. Jin Er seed like a very rich person. He believed he would definitely close the deal, and that it had been worthy for him to co over to Sun Xiaong’s clinic.
“All right, this way please. My cats are in the care of this clinic temporarily.” Zhang Zian lead Jin Er towards the ward.
Since there were no other clients in the clinic, and Sun Xiaong didn’t seem to oppose, Long Xian followed them to the ward.
They had only walked a few steps before Zhang Zian’s phone rang. He pulled out his phone, and saw that it was Li Kun who was calling.
“Hello? Have you bought the electric heaters yet?” he answered the phone.
Li Kun sounded a little bit out of breath on that side of the phone.
“Yes, we have… Master, where are you right now? Mr. Guo said you went to the pet clinic. Sothing is wrong with your grey parrot; will you co back and check on it?”
“Sothing’s wrong? Wait a second.” Zhang Zian gestured Long Xian, implying her to lead Jin Er to see the cats. He went towards Sun Xiaong with his phone in his hand.
Sun Xiaong was skimming through a magazine and looked at him confusingly.
He put his phone on the speaker mode so that she could hear their conversation.
“Li Kun, be more specific, Sun Xiaong is also listening.”
Li Kun swallowed his saliva and said, “Elder Brother Wang Qian and I obeyed Master’s order and bought electric heaters from the supermarket. We t Mr. Guo in front of the pet shop and he said that you were not in the shop. He told us that, before you left the shop, you told him to pass on to us that we should install the electric heaters in the bedroom and living room on the second floor.”
“Go on.” Zhang Zian looked at Sun Xiaong and pointed to her coat hanging on the rack, suggesting that she should put on her coat.
Though Sun Xiaong was not clear what had happened, from Zhang Zian’s dismayed expression, she knew that he was not joking this ti. She took off her white gown silently and put on her coat. She looked outside and saw that it was dusk already. It gets cold in the late autumn, so she also put on a scarf.
Zhang Zian didn’t take off his coat when he ca into the clinic, and seeing that Sun Xiaong was ready, he held his phone in one hand and pushed open the door with the other hand, signaling Sun Xiaong to follow him to go outside.
In the anti, Li Kun continued.
“Elder Brother Wang Qian and I carried the electric heaters upstairs and went into the living room. We found that African grey parrot which was always an to us was slouching. We didn’t speak to it—that bird always called us ‘butt buddies’, we just didn’t want to talk with it….”
Zhang Zian and Sun Xiaong had left the clinic. He asked Sun Xiaong to hold his phone, and he turned around and ran back to the clinic to fetch her stethoscope. Parts of the stethoscope stuck out from the pocket of the white gown and was swaying in the air. He stuffed the stethoscope back into the pocket and put the white gown on his shoulder, trotting to catch up with Sun Xiaong.
Li Kun probably had been spending too much ti on forums that, instead of getting directly to the key points, he just talked freely and relentlessly on the phone. After returning from the clinic, Zhang Zian didn’t feel he missed anything important…
“Elder Brother Wang Qian and I followed the instructions to install the electric heater, which began to heat up after plugging-in. When we were about to install the other electric heater in the bedroom, we heard a thump sound behind us, like sothing had fallen over. We turned around and saw that your grey parrot was lying on the desk.”
Sun Xiaong threw her car keys to Zhang Zian, indicating he should drive.
She had understood what the phone call was about. She was worried inside, but as a professional veterinarian, she should appear calm no matter what circumstances arose. She pulled Zhang Zian’s hand towards her, and said to the speaker on the phone, “We are on our way, will be there soon. You guys need to observe what symptoms it has and report to .”
“Well…”Li Kun sounded very embarrassed, “We don’t know anything…”
“I don’t care, just tell what you see!” Sun Xiaong said bitterly. Indecisive people were the worst in crucial monts when life and death were at stake.
They could hear Wang Qian and Li Kun passing the phone back and forth to each other.
Zhang Zian recalled that he had asked the navigation elf before whether Elves would get sick, and the navigation Elf’s answer was that they usually didn’t get sick, but there were exceptions. Whether the Elves had really existed in history or were virtual Elves, as long as they had been captured by the players, they would begin to exist in reality in real bodies, which ant they might get sick and might die. He didn’t expect that such an exception was happening in front of him! He had been too careless!
Wang Qian, who was more straightforward, took over the phone and said, “Sister Xiaong, I checked, and the grey parrot seed to have difficulty breathing, like sothing was pressing its chest.”
Sun Xiaong interrupted him, “Was it having short, shallow and rapid respiration?”
“Yes, just like that!” Wang Qian gasped in admiration, “Sister Xiaong, you can always describe them in a professional way.”
“Any other symptoms?” she held up Zhang Zian’s phone and focused on asking questions.
Zhang Zian held the steering wheel tightly and stared at the road and the vehicles in front of him. He had barely touched a steering wheel after he got his driving license on a sumr vacation when he was at the university, so basically, he had forgotten the traffic rules or how to drive. He wasn’t prepared at all when Sun Xiaong asked him to drive suddenly. He needed to be more careful and cautious, but during this trip, he also needed to pay attention to Sun Xiaong and Wang Qian’s conversation, so he was sweating nervously.
Since it was rush hour in the evening, there was a traffic jam, and many pedestrians and cyclists were crossing the road when they saw an opportunity. Zhang Zian was driving extrely slow, so slow that he wondered if they would be faster walking.
“Other symptoms? Let see…” Wang Qian’s sounded like he had muttered near the phone, and then his sound beca far away, then closer to the phone again. “I think it’s running at the nose, is it a symptom?”
“A running nose?” Sun Xiaong frowned and rapidly rolled her eyeballs, “Go check its eyelids. Are they swollen?”
Wang Qian went over to check and ca back to the phone, “I think they are swollen, but I’m not sure, because I didn’t pay attention to what its eyelids looked like before…”
Sun Xiaong interrupted him, “We are here. Let’s hang up.”
They finally had arrived at the pet shop. Parking was not allowed on the street, and Zhang Zian turned the steering wheel, trying to drive the car into the small lot. Since he had poor driving skills, and it was not his car, he was not familiar with the functions of the car, so he tried a few tis and still didn’t succeed. Sun Xiaong couldn’t stand it anymore. “Let get out first.”
The car had barely stopped still on the roadside before she jumped out from the car hastily and ran towards the pet shop.
Without Sun Xiaong by his side, Zhang Zian was stress-free, and he finally drove the car onto the pavent after trying twice.
Guo Dongyue was still directing the workers about the construction. Seeing Zhang Zian was back, he held a graph towards Zhang Zian, trying to inquire about his comnts on a detail. Zhang Zian waved, “Can you wait? Richard seems to be sick.”
Sun Xiaong rushed into the pet shop and ran towards the living room on the second floor.
Wang Qian and Li Kun were waiting inside, not knowing what they should do. They finally felt relieved when Sun Xiaong was there.
“Sister Xiaong, where is Master?”
“Behind ,” Sun Xiaong answered briefly.
“Oh.” Wang Qian and Li Kun carried the electric heater and said, “Sister Xiaong, we are going to install the electric heater in the bedroom. Just tell us if you need help.”
Without answering them, Sun Xiaong ran over to check Richard’s conditions.
Zhang Zian had also co up to the second floor. Just as Wang Qian had described, Richard was lying on the desk. It was breathing rapidly, sotis its wings would twitch accompanying its respiration, and its eyelids were half-closed feebly.
“How is it?” He observed Sun Xiaong’s facial expression, and his heart was beating rapidly.
Richard only coughed in the afternoon, but within only a few hours, Richard’s disease was deteriorating so quickly that there was no way he could prepare to cope with it!
