Chapter 452 - Appetite Really Isn’t That Huge

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Fang Zhao had given Nanfeng, Zuo Yu and Yanbiao three days of leave. However, Nanfeng worked hard to be a responsible assistant and sent Fang Zhao a message. After obtaining approval, he came over early in the morning.

Many people had come looking for Fang Zhao for collaborations ever since he had left HuangArt. In their opinion, Fang Zhao could start commercial activities since his advanced studies had concluded.

However, Fang Zhao didn’t have any intention of participating in all these commercial activities.

Most of these people were unwilling to give up even though they were rejected. They sought out Nanfeng since they couldn’t find Fang Zhao. After all, Nanfeng used to be involved in Huangzhou’s entertainment industry, and many staffers knew him. Thus, contacting Nanfeng was way easier than getting in touch with Fang Zhao.

Therefore, Nanfeng gave himself the title of “part-time manager” and enthusiastically came running over with his work.

After giving Fang Zhao a summarized brief of all these matters, he looked around but didn’t see Curly Hair.

In their little team, other than the boss, Nanfeng cared most about Curly Hair with his valuation of close to three hundred million.

“Where’s Curly Hair?”

Curly Hair was so excited to move into the new place. Why do I not see him at all? Did he exhaust himself from playing too much and is sleeping around somewhere now?

Fang Zhao looked at the time and said, “He went swimming and will be back soon.”

Nanfeng’s jaw dropped. He wanted to say, “Are you stupid?! You actually let a dog worth nearly three hundred million out to play in the ocean!” but didn’t dare say it in the end. Nanfeng put whatever files he was holding on to down and said instead, “Boss, I’m going to the beach to take a look.”

Nanfeng received a call from Yan Biao after stepping out. Yan Biao inquired about the situation and asked if Zuo Yu and him were needed.

Nanfeng went to the beach to search while answering the call.

At this moment, Curly Hair had just come out from the sea. He shook off the water on his body and ran over towards the house.

Nanfeng thought that Curly Hair’s fur glittered like gold under the sun.

As expected of our 300 million dog! He even glitters like gold under the sun! Nanfeng took a photo and sent it to their private group chat. “Even his footprints in the sand are so cute!”

Yan Biao: “…”

Zuo Yu: “…”

Nanfeng continued, “I’ll turn on the camera for you guys. Can you see that running silhouette glistening with light? Our Little Curls is the most beautiful pet in this district!”

Yan Biao: “And the most expensive right?”

“Boss…” Nanfeng wanted to say the boss was stupid, but his tongue got stuck when he thought about Fang Zhao’s hearing ability. “The boss doesn’t always have time to watch the dog. We have to watch him closely while we are here, especially when he goes swimming in the sea. It is too dangerous!”

Nanfeng jogged over towards Curly Hair.

Curly Hair stopped by Nanfeng and shook his wet damp fur.

Belchh~~~

Pooot~~~

Curly Hair belched and farted.

Nanfeng was excited. He regretted not being able to record this scene. “It’s my first time personally seeing a dog fart. Curly Hair deserves his three hundred million yuan valuation. Both his burp and fart linger for some time. And, on closer inspection, it even smells like smoke.”

Yan Biao: “…”

Zuo Yu: “…”

The brains of their comrade had already been deeply corroded by money.

This brainless flatter was incurable!

While Nanfeng was fancily lauding how “our dog is just different from others”, Curly Hair had already bypassed Nanfeng and rushed into the house.

He looked at the time. It was 8:02 AM.

Before leaving, he had told Fang Zhao he would return by 8 in the morning…

He had been late by 2 minutes.

Curly Hair needed to explain himself.

“I was already ashore before 8 AM! But, I wanted to dry myself outside before entering the house! Nanfeng even stopped me!”

Curly Hair still wanted to continue defending himself but heard Nanfeng’s footsteps. He quickly shut his mouth.

“Go to the dryer and dry yourself completely,” Fang Zhao said.

After Curly Hair finished drying his fur and came out, Fang Zhao had already dismissed Nanfeng.

Fang Zhao looked in Curly Hair’s mouth and between his teeth. There wasn’t much else besides some green stuff that looked like the remains of some sort of algae.

“How much did you eat this time?” Fang Zhao asked.

Curly Hair confidently replied, “I ate one fish. Just one! And maybe some other snacks.”

Curly Hair wanted to prove that his own appetite really wasn’t that large.

He had heard people talking about how keeping pets was a waste of money. Those that ate a lot could even be abandoned!

Curly Hair needed to defend himself. His appetite really wasn’t huge!

“Did you really just eat one? Aren’t you hungry?” Fang Zhao asked. He knew what Curly Hair’s appetite was like.

“Really! Not hungry!” Curly Hair said confidently.

“…Did you secretly eat a whale?”

“No! I didn’t eat any whales! Neither did I eat any other protected marine species! Not even a single fin! The fish I ate was a little longer than me. It looked like a protected species, but it actually isn’t. I surveyed it many times and verified it!” Curly Hair hurriedly said.

This has to be explained! He didn’t want to face the wall!

“Then, what snacks did you have?” Fang Zhao continued asking.

“Just two clams and some seaweed when I was returning. There were some that I didn’t know the names of, so I just licked them. They didn’t taste good.”

“Mmhm.”

Fang Zhao studied Curly Hair carefully. Besides being a little excited, there didn’t seem to be anything out of the ordinary with Curly Hair. Fang Zhao didn’t know whether Curly Hair was truly not hungry so he decided to go pour a bowl of dog food.

Just as he got up, he heard Curly Hair belch.

Fang Zhao stopped in his tracks.

His expression turned serious after discerning the smells in the air.

He placed the bowl of dog food aside, then walked over and squatted down to carefully inspect Curly Hair.

Fang Zhao thought of something and asked, “How did the fish you ate today look like? Did you see it before in any of the books?”

“It looked similar to one of the protected marine species.”

Fang Zhao opened up the ebook and got Curly Hair to point it out.

“This type, just that it only looked somewhat similar. It definitely isn’t! I could tell!” Curly Hair was somewhat pleased. Fortunately, he had taken a closer look while hunting and remembered all its differences when compared to the fish shown in the protected marine species ebook.

Curly Hair gave a detailed account of his observations and could even point out where every scale was, including a “T” on that the body of that “fish” which wasn’t easy to spot. Curly Hair had remembered every single detail rather vividly.

Fang Zhao used a pen to draw a sketch according to Curly Hair’s description.

Considering the direction this “fish” was swimming, Fang Zhao drew out a few routes after comparing it to a map for understanding. After some pondering, he marked out three routes. Amongst these three, one of these routes would lead to the harbor about a hundred kilometers away from Qi’an City.

Fang Zhao took this into account and asked Curly Hair, “How did it taste when you ate it? How hard was it?”

Curly Hair looked perplexed. “I don’t know… Things larger than me are swallowed whole.”

Fang Zhao: “…” What perfect logic.

From this bit, Curly Hair had completely abided by the instinct of wild animals by using the least amount of energy to gain the most amount of energy.

Why bite and chew when it could be swallowed straight? There wasn’t any point wasting all that excess energy if it could be swallowed. There weren’t any people in the area to witness it anyways.

Curly Hair didn’t know what mistake he had made. He became nervous when he saw Fang Zhao deep in thought. “Although I don’t know how it tasted, I think that its composition is probably more complex than dog food… Definitely more complex than dog food! Should I bite it to bits and taste it next time? The books I read didn’t mention what protected fish species taste like. Without a comparison, I also won’t know how special it is compared to similar fish. But, I still feel a little bloated after eating it up.”

Fang Zhao pulled his gaze away from his notebook. He patted Curly Hair on his head. “No need, no need. You’ve done very well.”

Curly Hair wagged his tail vigorously after being praised and felt at ease.

“How do you feel now?” Fang Zhao asked.

“Feel? Eating that fish feels like eating compressed biscuits. I’m so full.” Curly Hair even emphasized, “My appetite really isn’t that big!”

Fang Zhao still wasn’t at ease and gave Curly Hair a simple check-up. The equipment he used to inspect Curly Hair had also been moved to the new place.

The check-up results showed that Curly Hair didn’t have any injury and was completely healthy. Only his blood test results were abnormal with an excessive metal content. Fortunately, this was only slightly higher than normal.

The metal levels in Curly Hair’s blood had always been higher than that of other dogs. It was only slightly higher after he had swallowed something Fang Zhao suspected was a bionic torpedo.

This amazed Fang Zhao.

On closer inspection, the luster of Curly Hair’s fur also seemed to have some changes. Nanfeng had done some grooming for Curly Hair, but never had Curly Hair’s fur seen this sort of luster. Curly Hair’s fur wasn’t the sort that could easily be changed with some chemical dosage.

All of these changes had happened overnight.

Just in case, Fang Zhao tied a micro-monitoring tracker to Curly Hair’s leg. He would be able to find out right away if Curly Hair encountered any abnormalities.

“You’d better not go into the sea for the next two days,” Fang Zhao said.

“Yes.” Curly Hair had enjoyed himself thoroughly this time. Furthermore, he felt a little too bloated and sleepy. He would spend the next two days watching TV at home and sleeping!

“If you come across this type of ‘fish” that makes you full again and want to eat it, don’t bite it. Just swallow it whole. After eating it, immediately return and inform me.”

“Alright, yea!” Curly Hair wagged his tail vigorously.

I’ll go find it again the next time I’m hungry!

It was so filling, and Curly Hair felt that having one of such a fish could last him for half a month!

This can help Fang Zhao save a lot of money!

It did make him burp a lot though.
