Only a dozen seconds passed from the moment that perverted young man walked out of the pet shop until he was knocked down by a sudden large tire.
The people inside the pet shop hadn't even reacted yet, and by the time they did, the perverted young man was already lying in a pool of blood.
The crowd, who had been gritting their teeth just a second before, immediately rushed out of the pet shop when they saw this.
After arriving outside the pet shop, the first thing that caught their eyes was the perverted young man lying in a pool of blood, followed by the large truck tire resting quietly by the roadside not far away.
Although the perverted young man was knocked to the ground, he hadn't completely lost consciousness; he was spitting blood while trying to get up.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move an inch.
This was because his hands and feet were in an unnatural position; it was clear that the impact had not only severely injured his internal organs but had also broken his limbs. In such a state, he couldn't even stand up, let alone move. The only thing he could do was lift his head and call out to the people nearby.
“Sa… Save… Save me…”
“Quick… Call 120…”
“I… I don’t want to… die…”
After barely managing to say these three sentences, he seemed to have used all his strength, his eyes closed, and his head drooped, leaving it unclear whether he was dead or alive.
Upon seeing this, the group who had just rushed out of the pet shop, along with the curious onlookers who had gathered, couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
“Oh my god, he’s not dead, is he?”
“Where did that tire come from? How did it just happen to hit him in such a large open space?”
“Yeah, I saw that tire detach from a large truck. It didn’t hit any cars or pedestrians along the way, so how did it suddenly hit him when he was so far away?”
“Indeed, there’s no one else around here, just him.”
Hearing the words of the onlookers, a middle-aged uncle who had walked out of the pet shop holding a cat quickly spoke up:
“Let me tell you, this is retribution. This man is a cat-abusing pervert. He doesn’t know how many cats he’s harmed before.”
“Just now, a young man said he would suffer retribution today, and what happened? He was hit by this tire as soon as he stepped out.”
“I also think it’s retribution. Just now, when he came out, he said he was going to kill 10 cats today. This is cruelty to life. Even the gods couldn’t stand it, so they sent down punishment,” another aunt, holding a string of Buddhist beads, said with a profound expression.
“Serves him right! How did those cats provoke him? These are all his own accumulated karma. It’s not that retribution won’t come; it’s just that the time hasn’t arrived. He just broke that kitten’s legs, and now both his hands and feet are broken. This is retribution!”
“Man proposes, Heaven disposes. One must be careful with one’s words. This young man was too arrogant; even Heaven couldn’t stand it.”
Looking at the tragic state of the perverted young man, none of the people present felt sorry for him; instead, they felt a sense of relief.
But ultimately, someone still called 120.
And while most people were watching the half-dead perverted man on the ground, the group who had come out of the pet shop shifted their gaze to Lin Ye.
He first exposed the perverted young man's cat abuse, and then performed a demonstration of talking to pets for everyone.
Just now, he had also predicted that the perverted young man would suffer retribution today.
All of this made everyone curious about Lin Ye, especially the pet doctor, Zhou Rui.
While everyone was still observing Lin Ye, she directly approached him, her eyes filled with excitement.
“Hello, sir, I’m Zhou Rui, the pet doctor here. May I ask how you manage to communicate with those pets?”
As she spoke, she took out her phone and opened a document.
“This is my doctoral thesis, and this is my master’s thesis. I have always been striving to find a way for humans and pets to communicate without barriers.”
“Of course, if this involves some of your personal privacy or core technology, then just pretend I didn’t ask. I just want to communicate and discuss with you.”
Hearing Zhou Rui's words, Lin Ye immediately made up an excuse:
“This is indeed inconvenient to disclose, and I don’t think it can be replicated or researched.”
“If I had to say, I think this should be a kind of innate special talent, so I’m really sorry.”
His words immediately brought a hint of disappointment to Zhou Rui’s face.
“I see, then it really can’t be replicated.”
“However, I think we can still discuss the issue of pet communication later. I wonder if I could add your contact information.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t disturb you.” When Zhou Rui said this, there was a hint of apprehension on her face, as if she was afraid Lin Ye would refuse her.
“Hmm… alright then, you can scan me.” After a moment of hesitation, Lin Ye opened Green Bubble and found his personal QR code.
“Okay, thank you for your trouble.” Zhou Rui, with a look of pleasant surprise, took out her phone, scanned Lin Ye’s QR code, and sent a friend request.
The people in the pet shop nearby looked at each other in surprise.
It had always been others who actively sought Zhou Rui’s contact information, but this time, Zhou Rui had actually taken the initiative to ask for another man’s contact information.
After the two became friends, Lin Ye left the pet shop with the pet food he had bought from there.
As he was leaving, an ambulance happened to drive up.
Two medical personnel rushed out of the ambulance and shook their heads repeatedly after examining the perverted young man’s injuries.
And after seeing this scene, Lin Ye also gained a new understanding of the powerful effects of magic items.
“I didn’t expect the effects of these magic items to be so powerful that they can interfere with real-world causality.”
“I hope that truck driver bought full insurance, otherwise an innocent person would be implicated for no reason.”
After saying this, Lin Ye walked towards the rented apartment complex.
Ten minutes later, he returned to his rented apartment once again.
After simply arranging the things he bought, the rented apartment immediately felt like home.
“You two can come out now.”
As soon as Lin Ye finished speaking, Black, the Black cat, and Brian, the crow, simultaneously squeezed out from his clothes.
As soon as they came out, the two little fellows circled around the room, inside and out, as if inspecting their territory.
Once they had circled enough, they began to eat the food Lin Ye had bought for them.
To Lin Ye’s surprise, Brian didn’t seem to like bird food; he preferred Black’s cat food and canned cat food. The two little fellows almost got into a fight over a can of cat food.
They only stopped after Lin Ye severely reprimanded them.
While they were eating peacefully, Lin Ye lay down on the bed and casually opened the system panel.
The daily quest was complete, and today’s magic gold coins were in hand. It was time to buy the two special offer items for the day.
Because he was still short 200 magic gold coins, he also recharged 20,000 yuan.
Watching the quantity of magic gold coins increase from 200 to 400, he unhesitatingly bought the Pixie’s Prank Silver Coin and the skill point.
With a flash of white light, an exquisitely crafted silver coin, about the size of a one-yuan coin, appeared in his hand.
One side of the silver coin had a magic symbol, while the other side depicted a cunning pixie.
A faint yet powerful magical energy flowed within it.
At the same time he purchased the Pixie’s Prank Silver Coin, the compendium in his system backpack was also updated synchronously.
