Earth-Tiger paced back and forth in his room, as if searching for something.
But he had been searching for a long time without finding it.
Black Sheep was watching him helplessly from the side.
“What are you looking for?” Black Sheep said impatiently. “Looking for death?”
“What business is it of yours?” Earth-Tiger replied. “What the fuck does it have to do with you?”
The two then fell silent, both irritably turning their heads to the side.
Earth-Tiger kept rummaging through boxes and cabinets, stirring up dust throughout the room, while Black Sheep looked at the table full of food in front of him with a furrowed brow.
“This is what you call ‘treating me to a meal’?” Black Sheep shook his head. “Boring, I’m leaving.”
“Found it!”
Earth-Tiger cried out happily, then turned around to show Black Sheep what he was holding in his hand.
It was a plastic bag that still looked relatively new.
“What is that…?” Black Sheep was somewhat puzzled. “You’ve been looking for a plastic bag all this time?”
“So what the fuck business is it of yours?”
Earth-Tiger walked up to Black Sheep huffily, picked up a chicken leg from his plate and tossed it into the plastic bag, followed by the bread and fruit from his plate.
Black Sheep stared dumbfounded as he took things from his plate like a bandit, feeling his brain had completely crashed.
“Who’s to blame? Blame yourself for not eating for so long.” Earth-Tiger said. “Get more for yourself from the table.”
“I just don’t quite understand… who is this for?”
“I’m giving it to…” Earth-Tiger looked at Black Sheep, then furrowed his brow. “Is it any of your business?!”
“Fine, fine, fine, I must be sick in the head to care about you.” Black Sheep also said through gritted teeth. “No wonder among this whole group, I’m the only one willing to deal with you. I’m leaving.”
Earth-Tiger paused slightly after hearing this, then continued stuffing food from Black Sheep’s plate into the plastic bag as if he hadn’t heard anything.
Black Sheep stood up and walked three steps toward the door when a knock sounded.
He also froze for a moment, then reached out to open the door.
Outside the door stood Dog and Mouse.
“Yo, boss, haven’t seen you for a day, your forehead is still so dark.” Earth-Mouse smiled at Black Sheep and pushed the door open.
Earth-Dog also lazily nodded at Black Sheep. “Good evening.”
“You two…” Black Sheep couldn’t quite figure out the current situation.
“Black-faced boss, don’t you recognize me? I’m ‘Fence-Sitter’!” Earth-Mouse patted his chest and introduced himself very proudly. “And over there is the overtime dog.”
This statement made Black Sheep quite angry. “Fine, fine, fine, you two can be whoever you want.”
Earth-Dog paid no attention to the two who were conversing. After entering the door, he nodded listlessly at Earth-Tiger, then walked to a nearby sofa and lay down. His eyelids looked somewhat droopy, as if he was about to fall asleep at any moment.
Earth-Tiger stared at him for a few seconds, became infected by his atmosphere, and then the two yawned together.
Black Sheep had thought that no one else would come today. Fearing that Pei Qianhu would lose too much face, that’s why he came in to sit for a while. He didn’t expect the old familiar faces to come again.
He pondered for a moment and looked at Earth-Tiger. “You invited them too today?”
“No.” Earth-Tiger stuffed the plastic bag until it was completely full, then shoved it into his pocket. “But don’t worry, everyone who came yesterday will come today, and there will only be more, not fewer.”
Black Sheep felt something was strange. He slowly walked forward and stared at Earth-Tiger’s eyes for a long time.
“What are you looking at?” Earth-Tiger asked.
After hearing this, Black Sheep reached out and slapped Earth-Tiger’s large head.
“Hey!” Earth-Tiger’s temper immediately flared. “Old Black, are you fucking crazy?!”
“You’re the one who’s crazy!” Black Sheep lowered his voice and said to him. “Listen to yourself—do those words just now sound like something a moron like you would say? You saw him?”
“I, I don’t know who you’re talking about.” Earth-Tiger’s eyes shifted away from Black Sheep’s face, very unnaturally looking up at the ceiling.
“Why the fuck didn’t you tell me earlier!” Black Sheep continued in a low voice. “Is it necessary to hide it even from me? Is this food for Brother Sheep?”
“Hey…” Earth-Tiger scratched his head. “You found out. I was thinking of letting you see how capable I am.”
“This sudden capability of yours is really hard for me to accept.” Black Sheep said. “What else did Brother Sheep say to you?”
“What else is there to say?” Earth-Tiger thought for a moment. “Nothing else really.”
“Damn it… you stupid cat, what about the ‘plan’?!” Black Sheep kept his voice down, but his expression already looked somewhat angry. “Do you know that all of us have a ‘blade’ hanging over our heads right now? You’re the only one who saw Brother Sheep, why didn’t you ask him about the ‘plan’?!”
“You’re the fucking stupid sheep.” Earth-Tiger also suppressed his voice. “Brother Sheep has no memory! How would he know if I asked him?”
“This…” Black Sheep also furrowed his brow. “Then what should we do? Should we make the plan ourselves?”
“But…” Earth-Tiger scratched his face and said, “Brother Sheep said someone else will come tonight… Maybe that person knows something?”
“Someone else is coming?” After hearing this, Black Sheep thought for a few seconds. “You called other people?”
“No, I only called you and the slacker dog.”
At this moment, Earth-Mouse helplessly looked at the two who were loudly conspiring and said, “Bosses, it seems like you two were planning to keep this from us, right?”
“What are you listening to over there?” Earth-Tiger asked.
“You two bosses’ voices are really too loud, and I have nowhere to hide.” Earth-Mouse said. “Why don’t you two stop suppressing your voices and just say it openly? That way you two won’t be tired, and we’ll be comfortable listening.”
“Get lost.” Earth-Tiger said. “Don’t forget that you’re a ‘fence-sitter.’ I haven’t considered you one of my own yet.”
After hearing this, Earth-Mouse helplessly shook his head and said with a fake smile, “The boss is still wise. Following a wise boss like you, I feel much more confident.”
While the two were talking, the door was pushed open again, and the tall Earth-Rabbit covered in wounds walked in. His expression was somewhat heavy.
“Yo, bandaged boss, you came too.” Earth-Mouse smiled and greeted him. “You’re not dead yet?”
Earth-Rabbit glanced at Earth-Mouse, then looked at the Earth-level zodiacs scattered throughout the room, then helplessly lowered his head and said, “Brothers, did you all see today’s ‘Heavenly Horse Moment’?”
Everyone naturally saw the “Heavenly Horse Moment.” At that time, they were standing outside the game venue, watching numerous participants being slaughtered before their very eyes.
Those things that they could only accomplish after spending great effort, the “Heavenly-level” only needed a single thought.
“Everyone, what exactly are we becoming ‘Heavenly’ for?” Earth-Rabbit asked again.
