Chapter 281 Deputy Captain Pei’s Selection
Pei Xianjue and Baozi both looked at the third child at the table with curious eyes.
"Which one is its real head?" Pei Xianjue asked curiously, because the third little one had two faces.
"The bird head in the front is real, and the one in the back is just decoration and has no use." Feng Ling replied.
As soon as she finished speaking, the human face on the back of the bird's head opened its mouth and spoke: "I'm so hungry, so hungry~"
Pei Xianjue was shocked. "It said it was hungry! What should I feed it?"
Feng Ling felt that this human face was deliberately humiliating her, so she slapped it unhappily, causing the bird on the table to stagger.
"It's onomatopoeia, it's just making random noises, just like a parrot mimicking a human voice, it doesn't even know what it's saying." Feng Ling said, "You can feed them raw meat at ordinary times, but it's okay if you don't feed them. They will find food on their own and catch insects like grasshoppers to eat."
Pei Xianjue held her cheeks, very moved, "It's so cute!"
"You have a very special taste~" Feng Ling happily took out another one from his backpack and put it on the table, "This one is for Baozi, but they all look the same, so it doesn't matter if you mix them up."
Baozi rubbed his hands and said, "Thank you, Sister Ling."
Feng Ling was very happy to see that they liked it. He pinched the two birds on the table together and rubbed them, "You can always play like this -"
The two little ones were deformed like mud balls under the squeezing, their feathers were messy, and they merged into one, becoming a little one that was a size larger.
Pei Xianjue and Baozi both opened their eyes wide in astonishment.
I have to say, the transformation process is a bit disgusting.
The third little one jumped from Feng Ling's hand onto the table, shook his wings, and looked very heroic and confident.
Pei Xianjue thought the smaller ones were cuter, so he asked Feng Ling, "How do we separate them again?"
Feng Ling took a sip of tea and said, "When in danger, it will separate on its own. You can also use commands. I have already taught it to listen to you two before coming here, so it should be able to understand simple commands. Its intelligence is probably equal to that of a kindergarten child."
Pei Xianjue looked at the human-faced crow on the table and tried to give an order: "Separate?"
The crow turned and stared at her.
Pei Xianjue added: "Separate, split, disperse, uh... divide into two?"
The crow shook its feathers, and like cell division, it quickly split into two in less than two seconds.
Pei Xianjue said happily: "How amazing!"
She immediately looked up and asked Feng Ling: "Can I take a photo and post it online?"
This is a gift from Feng Ling to her! The first of its kind in the world!
As long as she posts it online, she can overturn those comments online that question her and Feng Ling’s bad relationship.
"That's definitely not possible." Feng Ling replied.
Pei Xianjue was stunned, "Ah..."
At this time, the door of the private room opened and the waiter came in to serve the dishes.
The third kid at the table flew onto the shoulders of Pei Xianjue and Baozi the moment the door rang. The two little ones didn't attract the waiter's attention at all.
The dishes were served one by one.
Feng Ling was very satisfied with the food here. He picked up his chopsticks and said with a smile, "The restaurant selected by Deputy Captain Pei is indeed reliable~"
Pei Xianjue: “…………”
Baozi could see Pei Xianjue's disappointment, but he was powerless and could only pick up the food in silence. Feng Ling said again: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I ordered all the signature dishes. You can ask the waiter to add more dishes for you. Don't be polite~"
Pei Xianjue tried hard to keep smiling, "Okay, I'll add a soup dish."
"Where is Baozi?" Feng Ling looked at Bao Changzhi.
Baozi smiled and said, "I don't need to add anything. I like all these dishes."
Feng Ling commented on the dishes as she ate. In the past, she ate just to fill her stomach, but now she could finally let go of the burden and savor the food, so she ate with extra care.
Pei Xianjue was not able to taste the food. She was thinking about how to smoothly get into the topic...
"Why aren't you talking?" Feng Ling looked up at Pei Xianjue while eating.
“Ha, ha…” Pei Xianjue laughed awkwardly. “I think the presentation is very pretty. I’m thinking about taking pictures and posting them online. Oh, by the way, Xiao Ling, do you have this social app? Let’s add each other as friends.”
Pei Xianjue picked up his phone, opened the most popular social app at the moment, and showed it to Feng Ling. "This app is very convenient for reading hot news. It also has many fun photo filters. We can..."
"Oh, this software, I used to play with it," Feng Ling said after taking a bite of food, "but then I uninstalled it because it was too difficult to use!"
Pei Xianjue: “…………”
Feng Ling continued to complain: "When I was a sparring partner, the owner of the club asked each of us to register, saying that he wanted to promote the club. Someone sent me a private message to inquire about the membership fee. When I quoted a price, they said my account violated the rules. They asked me to add friends and chat with them alone. They said I was diverting traffic to an external site. They wouldn't let me send my phone number or QR code. They limited the traffic when I sent pictures, and there were a lot of blocked words. It's so annoying. I don't understand. I will never use this crappy software in my life."
Pei Xianjue felt very disappointed after hearing this.
Baozi laughed and agreed: "It's annoying. There are many restrictions on these platforms now, and they are unreasonable."
"Really?" Feng Ling said, "There are a lot of ads, but it is indeed very convenient to read the news. I like to read the comments section below the news the most."
She paused slightly here, remembering what Pei Xianjue had mentioned before about posting photos, and turned to Pei Xianjue and said, "I guess the alien species will also use this software. If they see the human-faced crow I sent, it won't have the effect of catching them by surprise. This bird has no self-protection ability. It can only play the role of monitoring and early warning if the other party doesn't know of its existence."
Pei Xianjue smiled and nodded, "I was so happy just now that I didn't expect this."
Feng Ling smiled, picked up some food for himself, and said slowly: "Actually, I have some selfish motives. I am looking for aliens with special eyes. You are responsible for the security of Yuquan City, and the probability of encountering aliens is very high. Maybe you will find something."
"I know," Pei Xianjue said with a smile, "You have already made harsh remarks in the live broadcast. People all over the country know that you are looking for an alien called Xingguang."
"Hmm~" Feng Ling raised his eyebrows proudly, "I have a feeling that I will find it."
"I wish you success!" Pei Xianjue picked up the drink glass and clinked it with Feng Ling.
She thought that now was an opportunity, she could take advantage of Feng Ling's happiness and suggest taking a group photo of them clinking glasses.
Would it be a bit abrupt?
Will it seem stiff?
Feng Ling was just sharing his feelings with her, but she was calculating how he would agree to take a photo with her. She was indeed the daughter of a businessman, hypocritical and mercenary, calculating and scheming all the time, and she could never become a superhero...
Pei Xianjue's mood suddenly plummeted, and he could hardly maintain the smile on his face.
At this time, a special alarm bell sounded.
Pei Xianjue was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up the phone. The operator on the other end of the phone said, "A resident of Fengwu Street called the police. There are creatures that are suspected to be pollutants wandering around the street. Please ask the monitoring team to arrive at the location as soon as possible."
There were very few police reports involving contaminated bodies and alien species in Yuquan City, but she had not expected it to happen when she and Feng Ling were having dinner.
Pei Xianjue felt it was ironic and sad. Under such circumstances, it was even more impossible for her to ask for a photo.
"Feng Ling, I have to go..." Pei Xianjue stood up hastily and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I can only arrange dinner with you next time."
