The days of being a cat in Japan

In Xu Jie's mind, the little screech owl, who is short-sighted during the day and has a poisonous mouth at night, lived temporarily in the shop of Fujimoto's family.

The person who was happiest about this was not the pets of the Fujimoto family, nor the Fujimoto couple, or Fatty and Junko, but the person who was the happiest was Mr. Shi Yuan Daizhu, who was in charge of the night watch at the store.

Mr. Shi Yuan has been on night shift in the store for more than ten years. Every night, he has to carefully check the power supply windows and the hospitalized pets before returning to the duty room to rest.

In order to ensure the safety of the hospitalized animals in the store, Mr. Shi Yuan not only does not rest until after 12 o'clock every night, but also needs to get up in the early morning to check once to be at ease.

Such a life of going to bed late makes Mr. Shi Yuan look older than his actual age.

For his health, Mr. Fujimoto will give him one day off every week, but this gentleman prefers to go to work and is not used to taking vacations.

Being so enthusiastic about work is closely related to Mr. Shi Yuan's own conditions.

Shi Yuan Dazhu's academic qualifications are not high, and he chose to work in social work after graduating from high school.

He chose this way firstly because his grades were not good, and secondly because it was really difficult at home.

Shi Yuan Dazhu, who had no father since he was a child, is the eldest son in his family. In order to allow his siblings with better grades to continue their studies, he voluntarily chose to give up.

But after leaving the society, Shi Yuandazhu realized that life will only be more cruel for adults.

Shi Yuandazhu, who has no education and no skills, can only sell his strength on the construction site.

But after a serious accident, his body couldn't bear to do heavy physical work.

The younger brothers and sisters who are going to school are waiting for tuition fees, the mother who is not in good health still needs to continue to see a doctor, and even Shi Yuan Dazhu himself needs nutrition to take care of his body after the operation.

Every day when he opened his eyes in those days, Shi Yuan Dazhu had to face the problem of money. When he was almost desperate when he was in distress, it was the Fujimoto couple who extended a helping hand to him.

They gave Shi Yuan Dazhu a job as a night shift nurse in a pet hospital. This job was not too tiring, and the salary given by the Fujimoto couple was also very reasonable.

Not to mention that, they also applied for and paid for various insurances for Shi Yuan Dazhu, taught him various practical skills, and allowed him to pay the next month's salary in advance when he was really unable to pay.

During the most difficult time at home, Shi Yuan Dazhu survived with the help of Fujimoto and his wife.

Now his younger brothers and sisters have already achieved academic success, and each has an ideal job and family.

His mother's health has also improved, and even he himself bought a house in the city with a loan the year before last and got married, and he has a beautiful little princess.

All of this is thanks to the generosity and selflessness of the Fujimoto couple. Shi Yuan Dazhu kept their kindness towards him in mind.

He is not a person who is good at expressing, and he doesn't know how to repay him. The only thing he can think of in his mind is to do his job well, so that the Fujimoto couple can worry less.

In fact, Shi Yuan Dazhu did exactly that. In the [-] or [-] years he worked, the nights of Fujimoto's shop and the pet hospital were always safe and safe without any accidents.

However, it is inevitable that one person will feel lonely on night shift for a long time. Those hospitalized animals in the hospital are all patients and cannot accompany him.

So most of the time, Shi Yuan Dazhu sat silently in the duty room and watched TV.

However, since the injured scops owl came to the store, Mr. Shi Yuan's life has undergone some changes.

On the night of the first day, the new-arriving screech owl, Fumao, was wary of the unfamiliar environment, and shrank obediently in the cardboard nest on the bird shelf without showing its head.

But after more than a day of familiarization, on the second night, as a member of the owl, the screech owl couldn't help it's natural desire for night.

Owls are very energetic at night, and no one can change this.

So that night, Mr. Shi Yuan, who had just been watching the series in front of the TV, heard the sound of paws rubbing against the floor from the door.

The caretaker, who was holding a teacup, looked sideways at the door of the lounge, and saw a small screech owl with ear feathers poking its head out from behind the door frame to look at him quietly.

Thinking of what Mr. Fujimoto had specifically explained when he was at work, Mr. Shi Yuan smiled and said: "Little guy, you are the new wounded person in the store. Mr. Fujimoto explained it before he left. Today I'll feed you tonight."

After speaking, Mr. Shi Yuan got up and walked into the lounge, took out the meat that had been processed earlier from the refrigerator inside, and put it on the ground where the little scops owl could see.

Knowing that the scopped owl picked up was wild, in order not to disturb its original living habits, Dr. Fujimoto deliberately did not give it food during the day, but chose to hand it over to Mr. Shi Yuan, who was on the night shift, to complete the task.

Looking at the food plate placed on the floor very close to him, the scops owl fur turned its small head, squinting its eyes and kept looking back and forth between the food plate and Mr. Shi Yuan.

Looking at the squinted eyes of the little owl, Shi Yuan Dazhu patted his forehead and said: "Look at my memory, forget that your owl's eyes are not used to seeing strong light."

After speaking, Mr. Shi Yuan got up and went to the power switch to adjust the brightness of the lights in the house.

After adjusting the lights, Mr. Shi Yuan returned to his original position and concentrated on watching TV, as if he didn't care about the scops owl and the plate of lean meat on the ground.

After the light in the room dimmed, the squinted eyes of the owl opened.

It stared at its round eyes, turned its head slightly, and observed whether Mr. Shi Yuan really didn't pay attention to himself.

The bones of the owl family's head and the arrangement of facial feathers have certain rules. The concave and convex shape is like a radar, allowing them to absorb all the sounds around them.

With such equipment and a pair of eyes that are bright even in the dark, Owlidae can definitely be called the king of the sky in the dark night.

Now there is such a "king" who monitors Mr. Nursing not far away with his cutting-edge weapons.

Seeing that Mr. Shi Yuan really didn't mean to pay attention to him, Maomao the owl moved out from behind the door frame, and moved to the side of the dinner plate step by step to start eating.

From last night to this evening, this was the first bite that Maomao ate.

After it wolfed down all the meat on the plate, when it looked up, it found that Mr. Shi Yuan was looking down at it.

The startled owl jumped up with its feathers exploded, and made a long cooing cry to demonstrate to Mr. Shi Yuan.

Seeing that he seemed to have frightened the little bird, Shi Yuandazhu hurriedly stepped back, keeping a distance from the little screech owl, and at the same time said: "Don't be nervous little guy, I just want to see if you have finished eating or not." The plates are all empty, you must be really hungry, do you want to add some more?"

The adjacent scops owl is a kind of bird that is relatively close to the owl family. They like to build their nests close to human settlements.

Because there will be a large number of voles and voles no matter in the fields or near the houses, these foods can ensure that the scops owls can live in peace and reproduce the next generation.

The forest farm where the little neighbor scops owl Fumao used to live is very close to the owner's house, so it is no stranger to human language.

Even if Mao Mao can't understand some vocabulary, but the meaning contained in human movements and eyes is good or evil, this point Mao Mao can still understand.

So Mr. Shi Yuan won the initial trust of the little scops owl by virtue of his kind smile.

In the following days, Mr. Shi Yuan basically took care of the injured little owl.

The body recovers quickly at a young age, and after four or five days, Maomao can try to fly short distances in the house with his wings.

In the days when the little owl was slowly recovering, Xu Jie received a new advertising cooperation plan through Aunt Yuezi.

This time, the company that wants to invite Xu Jie and Mo Pai to advertise is a world-class luxury brand company.

However, what Xu Jie and the others will endorse is only the latest sunglasses of this brand. This is an attempt by the company's brand to open up the younger market.

In order to ensure the effect of the advertisement, in addition to Xu Jie and Mo, the brand manufacturer also specially invited a pair of popular artists who are in their early twenties.

Originally, Xu Jie didn't want to take this commercial, because it is not short of money now.

Since it started working, the Fujimoto family has opened a separate account for it in the name of the little fat man, and all the cash remuneration of Xu Jie and Mo has been deposited there.

After being able to use the little fat man's tablet freely, the most common thing Xu Jie does now is to buy some pet medicines, medical equipment and cat food online when he is free.

Of course, the address signee and phone number must belong to Dr. Fujimoto, and these things will be used by the dumbfounding doctor to treat stray animals.

Now the deposit in that account has already exceeded eight figures. Although it is in Japanese yen, Xu Jie feels that it is enough for him to squander for a year or two.

After the incident with Gengoro last time, Xu Jie didn't plan to take commercials in a short period of time. As a cat, Xu Jie felt that it would be better for him to keep a low profile in the human world.

So even if the luxury goods manufacturer offered a very attractive remuneration, Xu Jie still had no intention of agreeing to it at first.

However, a condition added there later moved Xu Jie.

The manufacturer promised that as long as Xu Jie and the others were willing to take the film, the manufacturer would pay a regular sum of money to several small animal protection centers in the county every year.

Thinking about Mr. Ohno's situation, Xu Jie thought about it and finally agreed.

Sitting on Etsuko's SUV, Xu Jie and Mo were rushing to the contract signing site.

In order to build momentum for their own brand, the manufacturer specially held a press conference for this advertising endorsement.

At the press conference, Xu Jie stood on the stage wearing the sunglasses sent by the manufacturer. While calming Mo's emotions, he had to deal with the host's silly gestures and questions.

After finally dealing with everything, the manufacturer handed the first check to the Small Animal Center to Xu Jie's paw in front of everyone.

Of course, this is just a formality. After stepping down, the money will be immediately transferred to the public account of the Small Animal Center by the members of the Love Association.

The manufacturer's doing this is just for show, but Xu Jie doesn't care if it is a show or not, as long as the protection center can get benefits, it doesn't mind accompanying it.

After the press conference ended, Etsuko drove Xu Jie and Mo back in the car.

They rushed home in a hurry, but they didn't realize that there was a dark car that looked very inconspicuous, and it was not far behind their car all the time.
