All Furries Love Me!! - Chapter 3

Chapter 3 – The Little Leopard

As a result, he encountered a setback as soon as he arrived, and even had to compete for the position with an ordinary person!

This made Lu Fangbin, who had been the focus of his family’s training and the person all his peers admired since childhood, feel very unbalanced!

However, his bad mood relaxed when he heard that the director wanted him and the boy who knew nothing to contact the demon cubs.

Lu Fangbin was really confident that he could get a job at the zoo, so he was ready to give it his everything.

What the Lu family is best at is controlling demons, and they could communicate with the demons easily.

The demon cubs in the zoo are not very old, and they couldn’t even speak human language, let alone transform. However, they did have demonic powers. When they get really angry, their destructive power is naturally not comparable to those of ordinary animals.

In such situations, his abilities were bound to come in handy.

And Ji Xingchun is just an ordinary person who could barely sense any spiritual energy.

Not to mention communicating with the demon cubs, if he angered the demons, he wouldn’t even be able to protect himself!

How was such a person qualified to compete with himself?

Thinking of this, Lu Fangbin couldn’t help but give Ji Xingchun a smile that looked contemptuous but also slightly pitiful.

Ji Xingchun: “…”

Because of the insufficient distance, although he could not hear what his competitor was thinking at this moment, he could clearly see that since the beginning, the other party’s face had been showing expressions of anger, sometimes complacent, and sometimes deep.

He felt that the person was probably seriously ill!!

Not long after the director took them there, Ji Xingchun saw a scenic area of several hundred square metres in size with a large number of bare rocks placed in it to simulate a steep mountainous area.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the exhibition area, a tall man walked towards them quickly.

The man had a handsome face but an air of indifference that could not be ignored. His long hair was tied up behind his head, and his hair volume was enviable. The gold-rimmed glasses on his nose made him look more intellectual.

However, when Ji Xingchun glanced at the other person’s lenses, which were about one centimetre thick, he vaguely felt that the man’s eyesight might not be ideal.

The man pushed up his glasses, glanced at Ji Xingchun and Lu Fangbin, and then said to the director: “Director, the situation is still not good.”

Hearing his words, the director’s chubby face was suddenly filled with worry again.

Ji Xingchun’s heart tightened. Considering the surrounding scene, he could naturally guess that the “bad situation” the other party mentioned was most likely referring to the animals in this scenic area.

Before he could think about it, the headmaster said:

“Hei Jin, these two people are candidates for the position of a caretaker. Go and bring the cub over here.”

The man named Hei Jin was slightly stunned, but didn’t say much. He turned around and walked inside.

Not long after, Ji Xingchun saw him walking out holding a long “thing”.

He didn’t see it clearly at first, but soon he recognized what was in the other person’s hand.

There was a young animal nearly one metre long, with snow-white fur with many brown and black spots, lying listlessly in Hei Jin’s arms. From the gap in his arms, one could see a big fluffy and soft tail hanging down, swaying from time to time.

This is actually a snow leopard cub!!

Before Ji Xingchun could get excited, he started to worry: “What happened to this snow leopard? Is it sick?”

Hei Jin glanced at him and noticed the worry on Ji Xingchun’s face, and his expression seemed to relax a little.

The man subconsciously tried to adjust his glasses, but then he remembered that he was holding a small snow leopard weighing several kilograms.

“No, it’s showing its bad temper.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the little snow leopard’s round eyes widened, and its long tail slapped Hei Jin’s legs unhappily, as if protesting against something with its actions.

“Correction, it’s ‘depressed’.” Hei Jin remained calm. For some reason, Ji Xingchun saw a hint of resignation on his face.

Ji Xingchun: “…Oh.”

After a long silence, he could only find this word to answer.

Lu Fangbin on the side did not speak for a long time. He was certainly not speechless like Ji Xingchun, but was in a state of shock.

What did he see? A leopard demon cub? !

Although it looks like an ordinary snow leopard cub, Lu Fangbin, as a mystic, could naturally see that the appearance of the young leopard demon had been modified by demonic power, so it looked not much different from ordinary creatures in nature.

But that’s not the point.

The point is that the leopard demon clan has a high status among demons, and they actually sent their cubs to this zoo. He originally thought that he would at most see some low-level and weak demon cubs!

In an instant, greed surged in Lu Fangbin’s heart. The young leopard monster in front of him was still very weak, but once it grew up, it would definitely become a ferocious beast.

If he could tame and control it… What a pity!

It happened to be in this zoo, in the base controlled by the demon clan! With huge waves surging in his heart, Lu Fangbin did not dare to show any expression, because he felt that the director of the zoo was staring at him and Ji Xingchun intently at this moment.

No matter how cute and harmless it looked, an adult demon is still not easy to mess with.

Although Lu Fangbin concealed it well, the demon cubs were always extremely sensitive to malice. The little snow leopard felt a chill of unknown origin in an instant, which made it subconsciously snuggle into the arms of its fellow demon behind it.

When it moved, Hei Jin almost lost his grip on the cub and dropped it to the ground. He was used to its restless behavior in the past few days, so he subconsciously said, “Stop throwing a tantrum.”

Little Snow Leopard: …Who is throwing a tantrum?

Damn it! He is Xuebao er hao, and his father is the leader of the snow leopard monsters. Now he couldn’t even act like a tyrant in his tribe, but had to endure the humiliation in this barren zoo.

【T/N •=> Xuěbào èr hào :- Literally translates as ‘Snow leopard two’, it feels like a weird name. So, I decided to leave it in the Chinese version.】

That would be fine, but he even had to come into contact with those ugly, sinister and bad humans!

They were really bullying the leopard! !

The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. How could Xuebao er hao, who had been spoiled by his father and mother since childhood, withstand this? His pair of bright blue eyes were slightly wet with tears, and he looked very pitiful.

Hei Jin’s eyelids twitched, and he looked at the crying cub in his arms somewhat at a loss.

He was also a demon, but he was not from the same tribe as the leopard demon cub, so he didn’t understand the other’s habits. In addition, he was also introverted…

He could treat the kids’ illnesses, but he had no knowledge of how to coax them.

Under normal circumstances, Hei Jin could have just used force to suppress it, but now the humans around him were watching…

Hei Jin looked at the director helplessly, but the other party shook his head slightly, waited and saw what would happen.

What the director meant… was that he wanted him to see the reactions of the two humans?

At this time, the little snow leopard in Hei Jin’s arms secretly raised his eyes, but he only saw the indifferent director and Hei Jin: …

In the past, when it was still in the tribe, its daddy, mommy, uncle and aunt would have softened their hearts and coaxed it when they saw it in such a state!

Even if they didn’t apologise, they could at least give it a bowl of fresh meat snacks as compensation? ?

How could there be such heartless demons in the world!

It is unknown whether Hei Jin and the others’ hearts are made of stone, but Ji Xingchun, who was standing next to them, was truly heartbroken.

He originally liked small animals, and cats were one of his favorites. Now, seeing the aggrieved look of the little snow leopard, pity suddenly filled his heart.

In addition, Hei Jin was still standing there in a daze, not knowing what to do. For a moment, Ji Xingchun could not care about his social anxiety and could not help but speak directly:

“Um… can you let me see the cub in your arms?”

After thinking for a while, he was afraid that the other party would not trust him, so he added: “My major in college is animal science, but it also involves some veterinary-related content. I can roughly check the condition of the cub.”

As soon as he opened his mouth, he heard Lu Fangbin beside him lift his lips and almost laughed at him.

After all, he is just an ordinary person who knew nothing about the mysterious arts, and he still had no idea of the situation.

Lu Fangbin had mystical skills, so he could naturally tell that the snow leopard cub was strong and healthy, and its so-called crying was just an attempt to attract the attention of the adult demons.

But he didn’t show off directly because Lu Fangbin knew that the demons were always xenophobic. Want to ask the protective adult demons for the cubs in their hands? If they don’t give you a slap in the face, it’s considered friendly!

Now Ji Xingchun is not only acting stupidly, but also making mistakes on his own initiative. Lu Fangbin was afraid he would be driven out of the demon clan soon!

When Lu Fangbin thought of this, he couldn’t help but secretly feel happy, and stood aside waiting to see Ji Xingchun make a fool of himself.

It was not a bad idea for him to think so, because Hei Jin’s first reaction after hearing Ji Xingchun’s words was to refuse.

But looking at the pure concern on Ji Xingchun’s face without any evil thoughts, he suddenly hesitated.

The history between humans and demons is filled with too much entanglement and blood.

Different from the demon race who are highly tolerant, simple-minded and yearn for freedom, humans always have the idea that “those who are not of my race must have different hearts”.

Although there are a few humans who have good intentions towards the demon race… they are only a minority after all.

But times have changed. With the decreasing spiritual energy, the mortality rate of demon cubs is getting higher and higher. When the demons were at a loss, they accidentally discovered that a small amount of spiritual energy seemed to be produced when they came into contact with the human race, the darling of heaven today.

Thus, the zoo was born.

It is a bold attempt by the demon clan to take a gamble. If they were not forced to do so, who would want to let their cubs be away from the care of their relatives and come to this zoo alone?

As the director said:

“Times have changed. The demon race must either adapt to the trend and make changes, or be destroyed by the trend.”

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, Hei Jin slowly exhaled, and his eyes suddenly became firm.

Lu Fangbin on the side widened his eyes in astonishment.

Under his gaze, Hei Jin slowly approached Ji Xingchun, and then solemnly handed the little snow leopard in his hand to him.

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on Ji Xingchun and Hei Jin’s hands that were about to be clasped, as if it was a scene that would change the course of history.

As he got closer, Ji Xingchun heard the heartbeat coming from the man opposite him:

【I hope this person is worthy of my trust.】

Ji Xingchun blinked and replied quietly in his heart: Thank you for believing in me, I will never let you down.

The moment Hei Jin let go of his hand, he immediately took a step back, but his eyes were still fixed on Ji Xingchun, as if he was afraid that he would suddenly do something unexpected.

As for the snow leopard cub that was handed over, the whole leopard was stunned.

【Wait?! He just handed me over like that?!】

【Is it because I did too much that you don’t want me anymore? 】

【Help! I don’t want to fall into the hands of humans! Will he peel off my skin? WUUWUWUWU!!!!】

Ji Xingchun: …

He once again confirmed that the animals in this zoo had very rich inner lives.
