Pet King - Chapter 924

Zhang Zian told Fina and Old Time Tea that what had caused that chaotic storm was Sihwa’s crying. Fina did not believe his explanation––even Old Time Tea was doubtful.

“Zian, is what you’re saying true? The sound of Sihwa’s crying has that much power?” Old Time Tea inquired.

“You’re making irresponsible remarks! Are you fooling me again?” Fina’s expression was not good. It felt a suffocating feeling in its chest and was ready to find a scapegoat at any time to vent its anger. “It’s not like she had never cried before… Hasn’t anything happened in the past?”

“Hear me out first,” Zhang Zian said, helpless. “Sihwa has indeed cried before, but this time was not the same as before. This time, you all could hear her crying, but I did not hear anything…”

Old Time Tea had a realization. “No wonder… I felt puzzled downstairs just now as to why Sihwa was crying, but Zian, you did not have any reaction. It was like you did not hear it at all… I thought that Sihwa had done something wrong, and you wanted to take the opportunity to punish her. Later on, I could not bear to hear it anymore, and went upstairs to check on what was going on…”

Zhang Zian looked towards Fina.

Fina turned its head. “Hmph! I thought that you dared to do something that is hated greatly by both Man and God in my sacred palace, so I went upstairs to stop you!”

Zhang Zian was speechless.

What kind of person do you think I am? What could I do to a fish?

Since he had not heard it, he was quite curious. What on earth did Sihwa’s cry sound like to be able to attract Old Time Tea and Fina to go up and check on her?

Old Time Tea sighed. “Sihwa’s crying… That was really… the listeners would be sad and cry. I have never heard such a despairing cry before… But, why was it that you couldn’t hear it, Zian?”

Zhang Zian explained even more, “That’s because… a cat’s range of hearing compared to a human’s…”

“Lowly humans,” Fina interrupted.

“… All right. That’s because a cat’s range of hearing is much wider than us lowly humans, so you all could hear sounds that us humans cannot hear.”

Fina had just suffered a huge loss and was in a very bad mood. Zhang Zian wisely decided to swallow his insults and humiliation for a while and not take what it said seriously.

He tried his best to explain, in the simplest terms, what ultrasonic waves were and why cats could hear them but not humans. It was not just humans, however––even Famous lost to cats in that aspect. Cats were far inferior to bats in that case.

Throwing aside the dosage to talk about the toxicity was hooliganism. Ultrasonic waves were not harmful towards living things when they were weak, but if they reached a certain strength, then they could cause varying levels of harm to living things. They could even cause very serious damage.

As humans could not hear ultrasonic waves, they might not even notice that they were being harmed; they could misunderstand and think that they came down with some kind of illness.

Only then did Fina and Old Time Tea nod their heads, not fully understanding his explanation. They accepted it anyway, as it further proved the superiority of cats. As for bats… that type of flying rat was not worth mentioning.

But his explanation was still unable to explain the other problem: Why was it that when Sihwa cried before, it was just ordinary crying, but when she cried the last time, it was with ultrasonic waves? F*ck, were ultrasonic waves used for that kind of thing?

Zhang Zian gave Fina and Old Time Tea a look, and the two cats and one human went into the bathroom together.

Sihwa had been frightened by the sudden thunder and had been roared at by Zhang Zian, so she had temporarily stopped crying. She was still sniffing continuously.

“What… What’s going on? Why do you all have that same expression? Do you all have cons… constipation?” Seeing them walk into the bathroom so seriously, she shrank and sank into the water. She revealed only her neck and head, as if she might shrink her head into the water as well at any moment.

“Sihwa, I need to ask you something. You must answer truthfully.” Zhang Zian straightened his face and asked, “The first question is… Why did you cry? The second question is, why did you use ultrasonic waves to cry?”

Sihwa blinked both innocently and blankly. “Ultrasonic waves? What are ultrasonic waves? Can they be eaten?”

“Idiot! You don’t even know about ultrasonic waves?” Fina gave her a hard look, then turned her head to stare at Zhang Zian. “Why are you still stunned?”

In his head, Zhang Zian said, F*ck. He needed to explain what ultrasonic waves were again?

He had no choice, so he could only explain the definition of ultrasonic waves to Sihwa. She had not been in their world for long, so she had a very poor understanding of scientific knowledge. Explaining it to her required a lot of work.

The two cats and one human talked for half a day before Sihwa understood what had just happened outside.

“I… I did not do it on purpose!” She shook her head with alarm. “I didn’t want to hurt anyone with ultrasonic waves, but I felt bad and wanted to cry…”

Zhang Zian believed that she did not do it on purpose because she did not have the IQ to do it. He asked, “Why is it that in the past you cried normally, but today… you cried abnormally?”

“Because… because… because…” She looked very embarrassed. Her body sunk into the water more, covering her neck and chin. Her lips were pressed to the surface of the water and she blew bubbles. She had repeated “because” several times but had yet to explain the reason why.

“What is the reason? Say it quickly!” The last bit of patience in Fina’s heart was worn out. It rounded its eyes and stared at her, slapping a forepaw on the bathroom cabinet.

“Don’t… don’t be so fierce…” Sihwa saw that she could not hide it anymore, and hence extended her finger to point at Zhang Zian. She said with a mocking smile, “At that time, he was on the second floor. I didn’t want to let him hear me cry…”

At that instant, the two cats and one human did not know what to say in response to that. Just because she did not want Zhang Zian to hear her cry, she cried in a voice that he couldn’t hear? She could cry as much as she wanted and not lose her dignity. There was actually nothing wrong with that logic…

“Next time, if you want to cry, you can cry normally. If you don’t want me to hear you, I can go downstairs,” Zhang Zian said with much difficulty. Yet in his mind, he thought, This is my house, why should I be the one avoiding it?

But the words could only be thought about in his head; they could not be said in front of Fina. Otherwise, he would be slapped in his face at the speed of light.

“All… All right, I know now.” Sihwa pouted reluctantly because she not only did not want him to hear her cry, but she did not even want to let him know that she had cried before.

“Anyway, isn’t crying normal? Why are you scared that others will hear?” Zhang Zian asked again. “Do you know how much trouble you have caused with this inaudible cry today? We had almost stabbed a hornet’s nest!”

“Because… all of you are very brave, and never ever cry.”

Sihwa hung her head while she spoke. Then, she raised her head slightly and glanced over at Zhang Zian’s, Fina’s, and Old Time Tea’s faces.

“All of you never ever cry… You don’t cry, Fina doesn’t cry, Old Time Tea doesn’t cry, Pi doesn’t cry, Famous doesn’t cry, Snowy Lionet doesn’t cry, Richard doesn’t cry, Galaxy doesn’t cry… Only I spend the whole day crying! Isn’t it embarrassing?”

Sihwa really felt that Zhang Zian and the rest of the elfins were all very strong. They spent the whole day laughing and joking, and were always boisterous. She had never seen them sad or crying.

She really envied them.
