Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 589 Hatred

Yu Shijiu, who had witnessed everything unfold, slowly widened his eyes: "????!!!"

Good heavens! When did Fatty become so quick to react?

(Fatty, trapped in his own mind: ...Thanks for the invitation, this cat has always been so quick to react!)

"Holy crap! What's going on?!?"

"Shi Jiu, are you alright?!"

Xu Han, who was busy milking the goat, was startled by the sound of the mother goat falling and immediately stood up, running towards Yu Shijiu in disbelief.

Yu Shijiu stopped him.

"fine."

Yu Shijiu's expression gradually softened, and he said with a smile:

"Brother Xu Han, you continue milking the goats. I'll take care of things here soon."

Xu Han stared at the figure sprawled on the ground, bleating incessantly, and swallowed hard: "..."

He glanced at Yu Shijiu with some concern, then looked down at the chubby guy blocking Yu Shijiu's way, and asked again:

"Is it really okay?"

"fine."

Yu Shijiu looked down at the chubby guy blocking his way, his eyes flickering:

"Feifei will protect me."

Lu Chusheng's breathing paused slightly for a few breaths because of those words.

Xu Han, caught off guard and struck in the heart: "..."

Waaaaaah... Having a smart pet is so great! This is just too wonderful!!!

Xu Han glanced longingly at the chubby sheep that was standing protectively in front of Yu Shijiu, then resigned himself to going back to milking the goats.

He's almost finished squeezing the fodder; he can leave later by carrying in some fresh hay...

Over here, Yu Shijiu bent down and patted the chubby head, whispering:

"It's okay, Fatty, it can't hurt me."

Lu Chusheng: "..."

He meowed softly and obediently moved aside.

Yu Shijiu walked quickly to the mother goat who had been struggling on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up. He reached out and gently patted her soft, white fur.

"Are you hungry? Why do you want to eat everything?"

The mother goat stared intently at him with her deep, dark pupils, her mouth agape as she howled and bleated—but Yu Shijiu casually grabbed a handful of hay and stuffed it into her mouth to stop her.

The mother goat, momentarily speechless: "..."

Its pupils suddenly turned cold, and its struggles intensified—

"Shhh."

Yu Shijiu forcefully pressed its struggling head to the ground with a "bang".

The mother goat slammed her head against the ground, feeling dizzy.

"Be good, I don't like to lay a hand on animals."

The culprit sighed softly, and with a hint of heartache, stroked the mother goat's head, which had just been bumped, and whispered:

"So are you hungry or not? Or... do you know who owns these fabrics?"

The only response Yu Shijiu received was the mother goat's continued bleating and hooves as she struggled... though the sound was much, much quieter.

Xu Han glanced over here briefly, and in his heart, he felt a deep sense of sympathy and concern for the mother goat.

It's all very fake, though.

"..."

Seeing that the mother goat continued to wail, Yu Shijiu's expression gradually turned to disappointment.

He released his grip, sighed, and gently patted the mother goat's head, saying:

"Sorry, I was a little too rough... But who told you to eat random things? You can't just eat this stuff; you should eat more hay..."

After saying that, Yu Shijiu enthusiastically stuffed a clump of half-fresh hay into the mother goat's mouth.

Mother goat: "..."

At the same time, Lu Chusheng's hair stood on end, and he instantly arched his back, looking around warily.

The goats that had been indifferent to each other slowly turned their heads and simultaneously looked in Yu Shijiu's direction. Their identical, deep, vertical pupils stared intently at Yu Shijiu, as if trying to memorize her face.

"I'll go get you something fresh."

Yu Shijiu seemed oblivious to the changes in the surrounding goat herd. With great "compassion," he stood up, quickly walked to the area outside the goat pen where fresh fodder was stored, bent down, and began to carry the fodder.

Lu Chusheng: "..."

He watched Yu Shijiu's retreating figure, then helplessly closed his eyes and stared even more cautiously at the herd of goats that had clearly become strange.

If the initial herd of goats was relatively normal... then the current herd of goats gave Lu Chusheng a feeling similar to the terrifying atmosphere of someone who could bite off the throats of the players around them at any moment.

These goats seem to have started to hate Yu Shijiu.

why?

Lu Chusheng was a little confused. Could it be because Yu Shijiu had pressed down on the head of that female goat earlier?

But aren't I the real culprit?

Are these goats only hostile to humans?

Frustrated and unable to understand, Lu Chusheng licked his lips and then impatiently sharpened his claws.

Completely unaware that they were now thoroughly infused with the nature of felines.

"Come on, eat!"

Yu Shijiu returned with a bag of fresh hay, looking very excited. He quickly spread the hay on the ground and even took a moment to touch the female goat that he had "pressed" to the ground.

"I'm sorry," Yu Shijiu said apologetically, "I was in a hurry just now, so I hit a little too hard. Please don't hold a grudge."

Lu Chusheng, who silently walked up behind Yu Shijiu and squatted down, was speechless.

He felt that Yu Shijiu had said those words too late.

The female goat—no, the entire herd of goats—has now started to hold a grudge.

and many more.

Lu Chusheng's eyes widened suddenly as he carefully observed the herd of goats that had been staring at Yu Shijiu.

After Yu Shijiu brought in the fresh hay, their eyes were instantly drawn to it, completely forgetting their "hostility" towards Yu Shijiu...

So fresh grass can actually distract a herd of goats?

Lu Chusheng remained silent for a moment, then his gaze toward Yu Shijiu became somewhat complicated.

He didn't believe that Yu Shijiu had just grabbed the fodder.

Yu Shijiu has most likely discovered something... which is why he chose to feed the goat herd.

This is such a wonderful misunderstanding.

If Yu Shijiu knew Lu Chusheng's guess now, he would definitely tell the truth—no, he just thought these goats looked very hungry and pitiful, only able to eat stale grass...

Unfortunately, Lu Chusheng is unable to speak, and Yu Shijiu has no intention of explaining his actions.

"eat more."

Yu Shijiu watched with satisfaction as the mother goat lowered her head to eat the hay, patted the bits of grass that had gotten into his palm, and walked toward the corner where the fabrics were piled up.

He crouched down, took a large towel from his pocket, wrapped the scraps of cloth in it little by little, and put them into his system inventory before standing up.

No one noticed that as Yu Shijiu squatted down to sort through the scraps of cloth, the pupils of the goats busy eating grass slowly shifted, and they stared at Yu Shijiu's hands with an unusually twisted and cold gaze.
