MTL - Cub Raising Association-Chapter 4 Fourth day as a childcare worker
After packing the room, Xie Luan had to start work immediately. There were only four childcare workers in the branch plus him, and the staff was not sufficient.
It's time for the pups to eat.
Xie Luan was still thinking about what the pups of other races would look like. As a result, as soon as he entered the pup's eating place ... he saw a fluffy pile.
The only thing that wasn't fluffy was the Mukah cub who was close to him as soon as he came in, and another mermaid cub in a small wooden bucket filled with water.
Mermaid ... For the first time, I saw this kind of fantasy creature that only existed in people's fantasy, Xie Luan couldn't help but take another look.
Human mermaid, the upper body of this mermaid cub looks like a human baby around two years old. Maybe there is a racial advantage, and his looks are very pleasing, but he has no expression on his face, looks very silent, and feels too quiet.
I accidentally looked at it for a little longer. When suddenly looking at a pair of blue eyes, Xie Luan reacted, and he just slightly frowned at the cub.
"Does this cub usually stay in this barrel? We don't have any pool in the club?" Xie Luan walked to a colleague who had met before and asked a question carefully.
When it comes to mermaids, the scene that people most easily think of should be a blue ocean, but the mermaid cub in front of Xie Luan can only stay in a small wooden bucket with water. No matter how you look at it, Xie Luan, who was deeply impressed by the Little Mermaid story as a child, is a little tangled.
"Yes, yes." Lin Yi did not deny Xie Luan's previous question, and nodded. "There is one in the courtyard outside the house, but the pool has already dried up, and the bottom of the pool is now covered with leaf dust."
After saying this, Lin Yi looked at the human youth next to him and seemed to be thinking. He couldn't help but ask with a weird expression, "Would you like to clean this pool for this mermaid cub? It's useless, that pool The circulation device is broken. Even if you clean the pool and fill it with water, you can't change the water afterwards. "
Besides, they earn a salary of 1800 credit points a month. If they don't do their duty every day, they don't have to do it, so why bother them with more hard work.
Xie Luan didn't say yes or no, he answered vaguely.
There were twelve cubs in the branch that Xie Luan learned from Xia Qi. Three of them still had eggs in their shells. They are now in the insulation room.
And there are only four nurses in the branch plus the newly-applied Xie Luan. If you want to take care of the pups in the branch, of course, there will be priorities in many things, and some pups will not be able to eat until the end. thing.
Xia Qi was busy brewing milk powder, and the other two colleagues seemed to ignore the Muka cub who was next to Xie Luan. Depending on this situation, Xie Luan could not understand anything.
Xia Qi hasn't taken care of the Muka cub for the time being, but the other two are unwilling to take care of it and intend to push the matter away from her.
If they had been before, the two were pushing each other, and in the end, someone had to reluctantly prepare food for the Muka cubs. But now, Xie Luan has taken the initiative away.
In the past, it was always necessary to wait until the end to eat. Muka cubs have no concept of this matter. It usually looks at the nurses preparing food or feeding for other cubs, and it will be their turn in the end.
For economic reasons, the food they provide to the pups is the cheaper kind of common rations for pups, mixed with the special nutrients for pups to eat. The taste is not good, but it is enough to fill up.
According to the actions of his colleagues, Xie Luan poured a large pot of rations for the cubs, which was quite heavy to handle.
The Muka cub is waiting as usual, its dangerous and terrifying appearance makes it appear particularly aggressive even if it doesn't do anything, the scarlet vertical pupil looks fierce and cold. But when this dangerous creature watched the youth bring the bowl and put it in front of it, it stopped his eyes and instinctively made a low hissing sound from his throat.
This food is for it. After confirming this, the Muka cubs lowered their heads and began to eat.
This portion of food is just enough to make the Muka cub feel full, but this time he ate less than half of the food, and the Muka cub pushed the bowl to the young man.
Any living resource is precious, especially food-this is the consciousness engraved in the instincts of all Muka people.
As a six-month-old Muka cub, this Muka cub obviously didn't know how other races survived. Only its instincts innately told it that they would rely on fighting in exchange for adulthood. Need for survival resources.
But the human youth in front of it does not have the ability to fight. What should we do?
Maybe they can't understand too complicated things with the wisdom of lower races, but because of this, their thinking direction will become very simple-
As long as it distributes half of its survival resources to young people, as long as it grows up and fights harder.
Seeing Muka's cub pushing food to herself, Xie Luan took a sip, and seeing that he did not accept the food, the large cub lowered his head and made a lower hissing sound than before.
"I don't need to ..." It is impossible to say that there is no touch in my heart. Xie Luan squatted down and pushed the bowl back, and then reached out to touch the large cub who was looking at it, which was particularly dangerous. "Baby is good."
After Xie Luan coaxed the Muka cub, he moved his eyes to Xia Qi, who was filling the soaked milky liquid into several small bottles, thinking that he should go and help him.
However, just two steps away, Xie Luan was temporarily unable to walk because of a fluffy bark on the trouser legs. It's not that this cub is too heavy, but if he moves, he will definitely kick the opponent.
Oval ears, thick but not long tails, are so thick that they make the cub look a little chubby fluff ... This cub really looks like Xie Luan's impression. He originally called " Rabbit Bunting "creature.
Although there is a rabbit in the name, the rabbit badger and the rabbit have nothing to do with each other, but a feline and a ferocious wild species.
There was a faint feeling of being called when the young man shouted "baby", because the voice heard was too soft, as if coaxing lightly, the cub raised his head, and when the young man passed by, Blocked each other's trouser legs.
Xie Luan didn't know the reason, just thought that the cub liked the moving object, and he just happened to pass by.
"This is the cub of the Takira race, you can feed it." Xia Qi turned around and saw the scene. She went over and stuffed a small bottle into Xie Luan's hand.
Xia Qi actually stunned for a second just now. In her memory, this Takila cub didn't like to be close to others.
This is probably related to the racial nature. Among the many interstellar races, the Takira generally have excellent individual combat capabilities, which makes them more inclined to be lonely, even lonely, even in the cub period. not excluded.
So the scene in front of her at this moment seemed extraordinarily strange.
Xie Luan responded well, squatting down with a baby bottle, trying to calm his face so that he didn't look busy. He knows feeding with a bottle, but how does it work ...?
After considering the meeting, Xie Luan first pinched the two front paws on his trouser legs and sat cross-legged. Then he tried to reach out and touch the fluff on the back of this Takira cub.
This is really very fluffy and thick fur, the tip of the hair is very light, at first glance, there is a kind of frosty cold texture, but Xie Luan touched it, the only feeling was soft.
The stubby tail was raised and lowered. The Tachira cub, which looked like a rabbit and a baby, squinted his eyes under the touch of a young man, and made a low grunt in his throat.
That is, at this time, Xie Luan shook the small bottle with a little hot temperature in her hand. When the temperature felt almost the same, Xie Luan stuffed the pacifier into the cub's mouth, and continued to touch the back of the Takila cub while feeding.
The grunts of Takira's cubs made the other cubs around pay more attention to them. The youth is a strange existence that they have not seen before, but watching the young gentle strokes of Takira's cubs. These cubs gradually stared at this picture.
Other nurses don't do this kind of extra work when feeding them.
After drinking the milk, he refused to leave. The Takira cub stretched his tongue and licked the palm of the youth. He lowered his body and sniffed the scent of the youth. After writing down the youth's breath, he mumbled and fell on his stomach The thick and short tail behind the young man's twirled legs occasionally moved slightly from time to time.
The weight on his legs made Xie Luan smile a little, and he heard the low grunt, and he couldn't help but reach out a finger and touched the elliptical ear of this Takila cub.
The ear position is relatively sensitive. As soon as the cub touched the ear, it moved its body immediately, but it did not avoid the touch of the young man, but just raised its pupil to stare at the young man's long fingers touching his ear.
In theory, the lonely nature of the Takira race would not like someone to treat them this way, not even parents. If anyone has to approach them forcibly, the biggest possibility is to be attacked and to be blacklisted from all contact.
Similarly, the cubs of the Takira race are also temperamental, and it is definitely not a happy thing for them to separate the separate territories.
Xie Luan didn't know this. Listening to the grunt, he reached out and touched the Takila cub's head, then touched his spine, and finally touched even the fluffy tail.
There was no resistance during the whole process. If the nurses of the other cub nursing clubs saw this scene, they would immediately suspect that they had hallucinations in front of them.
This is not the pup of the Takira race at all, fake!
