Beauty and the Beasts - Chapter 1364
Chapter 1364: Buying Bird Nest
Although there were a lot of plants in this residential area, there wasn’t much wilted grass. Who knew how long it’d take to gather enough to build a bird nest that an eagle beastman could stay in?
Bai Qingqing put her bag to one side and took out her phone to check Taobao[1]. After a while, she smiled and said, “There are ready-made nests for sale. Look, they are very clean. It’s just that they are too small. Let me ask if they can be custom-made.”
Muir took a look at her phone curiously, feeling troubled. They said that with this device, it would be possible to converse across very far distances. He didn’t expect that Qingqing had one either. If he knew, he wouldn’t have thrown away the phone Liu Yi had given him at the hotel.
The Taobao seller expressed that customization was possible. After Bai Qingqing told them the measurements, the customer service staff fell quiet for a minute before sending over a message: [Are you planning to keep an ostrich? (Snickering emoji).]
Bai Qingqing took a look at Muir, thinking to herself that the bird they had at home was a lot bigger than an ostrich.
Muir got close to Bai Qingqing to take a look at the phone, asking, “Can it be done?”
“Yes, but it will be a lot more expensive,” Bai Qingqing said.
Muir looked toward her bag and took out a card. “We should be able to buy it, right?”
Bai Qingqing’s eyes twitched as she took the card from him. “How much does this one have? I’ll bind it to the Taobao account.”
Muir didn’t understand, but as long as it was something Bai Qingqing wanted, he would agree to it. He immediately replied with an “en”.
Bai Qingqing sat on the tree fork and bound the bank card to the Taobao account. After doing that, she realized that the identity of the Taobao account and the card must tally. Therefore, she could only use Muir’s identification number to open an account.
She managed to open an account successfully with this identification number. Muir was really a bird with an identity card now.
After placing the order, Bai Qingqing hugged Muir’s arm and said with a fawning expression, “How did you get this identity card? Can you get one for Curtis, too?”
“I’m not sure,” Muir said. “Liu Yi gave it to me.”
“Then, can he make another one?” Bai Qingqing stared at him nervously.
Muir shook his head. “After finding out that I didn’t have this card, he fretted for very long. He then suddenly brought me to make this card. He should have found someone else to help make it. Moreover, the other party didn’t help because of him, but because of me.”
Bai Qingqing sank into deep thought for a moment, then her expression fell.
“Forget it, then. You being an unregistered resident itself is already a cause for suspicion. If another person, Curtis, who also doesn’t look like a normal human from one look were to pop up, it’d arouse even more suspicion.” Bai Qingqing sighed. “Since an unregistered resident can become registered, Curtis will definitely be able to do it too. In the worst-case situation… we’ll let him go to another country and participate in the Olympics for once!”
Muir couldn’t contain his smile and pinched his mate’s small face, saying, “Curtis won’t agree to it.”
Bai Qingqing pouted and said, “I know. It was just a thought.”
Bai Qingqing became playful and climbed up to the roof through the tree trunk. The architect had properly considered the possibility that people would climb it. Therefore, the roof was also made from anti-slip ceramic tiles. However, there weren’t any fences, so it was still a little dangerous.
To understand his mate’s life, Muir went through her backpack. Other than his identity card, there were only two bottles of water and a box of condoms.
He took out the box of condoms and looked at it for a while. He was about to ask Bai Qingqing what it was when she called for him from the roof.
Bai Qingqing hugged onto the tree and looked down. When Muir came up, she said, “I want to jump down from here and see if I’ll be able to summon Winston and Parker over. Holding my breath is too painful, and it might not be successful.”
Summoning Winston and Parker was a great family matter. Muir’s expression immediately turned solemn. He put the condoms into a pocket in his pants and jumped down from the roof of the house’s second floor.
