Eli rubbed the dirt on his fingers lightly, then took it up his nose and sniffed it.The smell of the soil is very fresh, with a strong sense of tide, as if it was brought from the stream, it is definitely not something that can be soaked at home.

He raised his eyebrows and looked up at Noah at his feet.

Noah, who was as happy as a dog just now, has lost his smile, his mouth is tightly closed, his tail is motionless, and he squats at his feet as stiff as a dinosaur sculpture.Eli narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at it, but it actually knew how to avoid it and stared at the clean floor under its feet without squinting.

"Can you still step on the dirt while staying at home?" Elipi said with a non-smiling smile, "You are really capable."

Noah slowly lowered his head.

Eli looked at the top of its head and its new webs, feeling a little mixed, feeling a little uncomfortable about things getting out of hand.

He didn't say a word, he just stood there and sorted out his emotions for more than ten seconds, and then he didn't say much, and even said to Noah in a pleasant manner: "It's time for supper, eat something first."

As he said, he went to the kitchen and made himself a plate of pasta, and solved his stomach that had been empty for several hours, and then cooked a whole pot of meat for Noah as usual, and eased his tone Come down and let him come and eat.Noah looked at the displeased blue that was about to flow on Eli's body, and moved slowly to the side of the rice bowl, looking at Eli from the corner of his eye, while carefully starting to eat.

"What are you afraid of?" Eli leaned on the kitchen, "Can I still eat you? You can eat me."

Noah gave a very low "woo" and tried to rub his calf with his tail, but Eli took two steps back and didn't let it rub.

Noah was like an eggplant beaten by frost, he ate his supper with his head drooped, but he didn't taste much.Eli took it back into the bedroom, Noah walked around his bed, then looked up at him eagerly, he ordered him to sit down, then closed the bedroom door, went to the living room by himself, I used a notebook to call up the camera records of the whole day today.

On the first day after installing the camera, I never expected to use it.

Eli was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching the video, Noah was scratching the door in the bedroom, and after scratching for a while, he calmed down, standing against the door, carefully observing Eli's color.

In the video, Noah tried to get out of the bedroom window after he went downstairs, but because the window was locked, it lingered in the bedroom for a while, then returned to the living room and began to sleep.Around ten o'clock, it suddenly got up, entered the attic, and disappeared into the camera.

Eli then went to the attic, the windows of the attic were also locked, and the newly bought locks were still brand new, without any signs of damage.For a moment, he couldn't think of where Noah escaped from, and wandered around in the attic for a long time before he remembered that there was another skylight.

But the skylight was opened very high, almost twice the height of the normal room, and the window hadn't been opened for a long time, so it still looked the same when standing below, and there was nothing unusual about it.Eli was a little dubious. Noah was only at the height of his thighs. Without any external force, it seemed impossible to jump to such a high skylight.

After hesitating for a while, he went to the utility room and brought a ladder, and climbed up near the skylight.At first glance, there were no traces, but when he reached out to touch the edge of the window, he finally found a clue.

There is no dust in the cracks of the windows, and there is a tiny mud print in the corner, which is very fresh.

Eli moved the ladder back and opened the bedroom door.

Noah was standing at the door, but he didn't dare to jump on him. He just lowered his head and arched his thigh with his head.Eli's mood is very complicated, the most important thing is anger, coupled with the new understanding of Noah, and a small amount of guilt and fear, mixed with a pot of messy porridge, making him wonder for a while whether he should be punished or not.

"I know you're not used to being in a house with walls on all four sides, but I can't let you out," Eli said, "It's full of people out there, and you might bite them, or they'll catch you and take you to the recycling center , either way will become my irreparable fault."

"You grow up too fast and are too smart. I can't control it. If this happens again, I can only send you away early..."

Eli squatted down, a little uncomfortable, and pressed the top of its head with his right hand: "'Leave', if you run out again, I will send you 'Leave'."

He made an action to isolate the two of them. Noah stared with his eyes wide open, but there was no movement. He thought it didn't understand, and repeated the word and action again, but Noah suddenly stood up, dead Biting his trousers desperately, he made a series of indescribable sounds of "woo hoo hoo", and his tail tightly wrapped around his calf.Eli still backed away, not letting him touch it. Noah might have misunderstood something, and obviously entered a state of extreme panic. While trying to get close, he was eager to make a sound in fear, and hugged his calf with his forelegs. When he saw it, he saw a flash of crystal liquid in its eyes, so inconspicuous that he even thought it was an illusion at first glance.

Eli was stunned.

He couldn't speak for several seconds, and then involuntarily reached out and held Noah's head, staring in shock at the liquid hidden in its deep eye sockets.

"My God," he murmured, "are you crying?"

Noah would not answer, and just pressed his mouth against his cheek. The sound from his throat was like an infrasound wave, directly passing through the eardrum and reaching the bottom of his heart. It stretched out its tongue and licked Eli's cheek. Once again, the liquid in the eyes gathered into small crystal particles in the eye sockets, rolled down along its hard carapace, fell to the floor, and evaporated quickly.

Eli couldn't believe what he saw, his lips trembled, and he couldn't make any response for a long time. It wasn't until Noah grabbed his upper arm with his forelegs that he begged, that he subconsciously stretched out his hand to hug it.

Noah was trembling all over, and when he was hugged, he pressed hard into his arms. The scales hurt his chest, and his webbed forelimbs could not be controlled well, and a long line was drawn on his back. The long cut and the strong pain made Eli push it out subconsciously. This action caused the color of Noah's body to change from dark green to dark blue visible to the naked eye, and soon approached black. Even the body temperature began to feel sad due to excessive Descending, his head limply resting on Eli's shoulder, the breath on his neck getting heavier and heavier.

"Noah?" Eli felt something was wrong. He stretched out his hand to press its heart, and felt that the heartbeat became very slow, and his heart sank. "Noah? Are you uncomfortable?"

Noah didn't even make a "woo woo woo" sound, and just stuck tightly to his arms, refusing to move away at all.Eli held its head, and looked closely at its pupils. Its pupils were out of focus, covered with a layer of mist, and stared sadly at Eli's eyes.

Eli looked solemn, got up and wanted to go to the attic to get the first aid kit.Noah seemed to have misunderstood something, tightly wrapped around his hand, the color of his body further turned into pure black, and his eyes were full of pleading.Eli froze for a few seconds in disbelief, and even forgot that it was a dinosaur for a brief moment, but Noah's tail wrapped around him slowly and feebly loosened, and he began to vomit.

"Oh my God!" Eli hurriedly raised its head to make it a little more comfortable.Noah's whole dragon was convulsed, vomited in pain for a while, and then fell on Eli's lap, breathing heavily, and his eyes were full of tears.

"..."

Eli ran his hands along its spine back and forth, trying to say something to comfort it, but many words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't pour them out.

He didn't even know whether to be angry or sad or blame himself now, the unfolding of the matter was completely beyond imagination.From the moment he picked up this egg by the river, he never thought that a tyrannosaurus rex would hatch, and he never thought that this dragon would vomit in pain because of his few simple actions...

It wasn't until this moment that he realized what the person "Eli" meant to the baby dragon he picked up and was born in his attic.

Feeling sad, he moved Noah, who was still panting in pain, to its den, wiped the filth from its mouth with a tissue, and fed it some water.

Noah's eyes followed him closely, and Eli stroked the top of its head to make it feel better, and then began to shake its head while saying the word "leave", so that it could understand in the fastest time that it was not Now to send it away.Noah looked at it carefully for a while, and struggled to stand up from the nest. Every time Eli said "leave", it would shake its head vigorously, and then moved a short distance with its hands, sticking to the At Eli's feet, the pure black scales finally revealed a different color.

Eli let him lie down and stayed with him for a long time. Noah refused to sleep and stared at him without blinking. So he fed him a little water, cleaned up the mess and put him on the bed. Make an exception so that it can sleep next to itself.

Noah quickly found the most comfortable position by his side just like the first day he was born, his tail tightly wrapped around his legs, his heavy breathing gradually calmed down, and he put his head against his chest.

Eli just lay on the bed with it and almost lost sleep all night.

-

The next day, when Eli woke up, Noah was squatting beside his bed, staring at him without moving.He reached out and touched its head, and Noah rubbed against his palm lazily, then lowered his head and carefully licked the scratched wound on his back, looking very remorseful.

This kind of injury has always healed quickly for Eli, and the scabs had scabbed over in just one night.He comforted and said a few words that didn't matter. Noah leaned on his feet and followed him to wash and go to the kitchen. He also ate closely next to him. He still seemed to have no appetite, and his food intake was reduced by more than half than usual. , After eating a little bit, he stopped.

Eli gave it some goat's milk, then tried to go to the attic to get some medicine.Noah, who had been following behind him, suddenly stopped in front of the door of the attic, circled around the door several times in fear, stared at Eli inside, and dared not come in again.

Eli knew that it was frightened, and felt a little distressed.No matter how smart and powerful it is, it is just a young dragon that has been imprisoned for too long and knows almost nothing about the outside world. From its point of view, he is not qualified to punish it.

But Eli still didn't let him in. After taking the medicine, he closed the door of the attic, let him take the medicine in the living room, and did some training and playing with him as before.Noah's mood seemed to be a little more stable, and the scales returned to the normal gray-green color. He finally ate something more at noon, and Eli measured his heartbeat and body temperature again. It was still a little low, but it had entered the normal state. In the range.

In the afternoon, he filled a bathtub full of water, and put the webbed Noah into a bathtub of the right temperature.Compared with yesterday, Noah has adapted a lot to the water environment. It seems that he knew how to use its new structure by nature. When he was filled with foam by Eli, he paddled his limbs happily and completely floated in the water. stand up.

Eli let it soak a little longer this time, and covered its big forehead with a small towel like an uncle in a bathhouse. Noah looked very comfortable and relaxed, and even briefly forgot what happened last night when he came out. Unhappy, he still wagged his tail and flirted with Eli for a while, and grinned happily after getting Eli's touch, showing his sharp teeth.

But Eli couldn't let go of it as quickly as it did. An overly emotional Tyrannosaurus rex was more difficult for him than an ordinary brutal dinosaur in a sense, and he had to think about more things.

He was going to open the shop at night, leaving Noah in the bedroom.Noah had already understood his rhythm of life, and didn't dare to keep him as shameless as usual. He reluctantly followed him for a few steps, then stopped at the door, and looked at him with perfect eyes.

Eli said goodbye to it and went to the first floor.

But the way Noah looked at him at the end lingered in his mind, almost like a spell, making him uneasy.As soon as all the tables and chairs were arranged, he couldn't help closing the store door again, and went upstairs to open the door again.

Noah was sitting obediently at the door, and his eyes lit up the moment he saw him.

Eli's heart softened all of a sudden.

He quickly made an excuse for himself, Noah grew up so fast, he can't stay by his side for long, he can't cause trouble because of his lack every time, and then use this trouble to punish Noah .

As if seeing Eli's color becoming lighter, Noah also stood up and began to wag his tail.Eli smiled at it, and pulled out its giant cat teaser from the cardboard box in the living room: "Hey, how about playing with this with you tonight?"

Noah happily circled him, jumped up and plucked the colorful feathers, and Eli took it to the backyard and let it run wild for a while.At about eight o'clock in the evening, the doorbell suddenly rang outside, and the people who came were very anxious and eager to press it. The harsh sound startled Noah.

Eli quickly brought it back to the living room, told it not to make any noise before closing the door, then packed his clothes and went to the first floor.

Maoyan saw two people in uniform standing at the door, one with a baton in his hand, they were all familiar patrolling police officers in the town.

Eli opened the door, and one of them said hello to him first, and then said in a business tone: "A very serious dinosaur injury happened last night, and the town is currently under martial law. Go out, especially at night. We advise your pub to be closed for a few days."

Eli's heart skipped a beat.

Another policeman added: "The police and experts from the city will soon enter the town to arrest the dinosaurs. You don't have to worry too much. We will try our best to solve this case within a week."

Eli felt an extremely unpleasant sense of foreboding, and his voice was rough when he spoke, as if he was terrified by the news: "Can I ask you a little bit about the details of the case? I want to make sure if it's my friend... ..."

The policemen looked at each other, and one of them said, "The victims were a pair of men. Their bodies were found near the creek this morning. One was a carpenter in the town and the other was a foreigner."

"I just met Tom the carpenter the day before yesterday. He..." Eli's voice became more and more rough, "I can't believe it. I really... What the hell did it?"

"The preliminary identification is some kind of tyrannosaur. Because your residence is close to the forest and the creek, you must pay attention to safety. If there is something wrong, please notify us immediately."

"..."

last night.by the creek.Some kind of Tyrannosaurus.

Eli didn't speak for five seconds.

A policeman sighed and patted him on the shoulder reassuringly: "Don't worry, it will be resolved."

Eli said thank you hoarsely, walked into the bar stupidly, and locked the door again.
