In the Luojia Mountain Tavern in the early morning, Bell, dressed in snow-white, sat in front of a hard mahogany round table.
His huge body was like a small house.
As the "ding-a-ling" bell rings.
The polar bear motioned for everyone to look at him.
Compared with yesterday, there are four more chairs in front of the round table today. The corners of the old father's mouth are raised. It is another day of majestic and loving father!
"Okay kids, Uncle Dave wants to introduce you to some new friends."
After receiving the signal from the polar bear, Octopus Dave walked out of the kitchen carrying an oversized plate.
Breakfast is a beef sandwich, which contains fried eggs, green vegetables, and stewed tender beef mince.
There is a huge eater in the family, and it is impossible for Dave to cook too elaborate delicacies.
But compared to this plate of beef sandwich, which is piled like a mountain?
The four little guys following Dave were more conspicuous.
With black wings, big yellow feet, and pure white feathers on his chest, he looks like a chubby little gentleman.
Their eyes are very bright, and unlike other penguins, their eyelids are blue, which is very rare in the animal world.
Dave held the tray with both hands, and the other two hands skillfully pulled out the little guys and introduced them:
"This is Skib, this is Kowalski, this is Rick, this is Leipwitt."
A friendly smile appeared on the polar bear's face.
Out of his trust in Octopus Dave, Bell had a good impression of the four little penguins. He rubbed the head of one little penguin with his thick bear paws:
"Hello, little ones, did you sleep well last night?"
The little penguin whose head was rubbed was called Skib. He was the boss of the other three penguins, and his eyes quickly glanced around.
The young polar bear Love, who was smiling silly at himself at the moment, was immediately defined as "non-threatening".
The Arctic shrew on the side needs to be more vigilant.
After all, he is too weak. To be able to live in this family, he must have extraordinary means and be temporarily classified in the intellectual zone.
It is currently unclear whether the other party's advantage is interpersonal relationships, scientific research capabilities, or something else.
Don't worry Octopus Dave.
Skib had tried it before, and he knew it was a good octopus.
So the last one left is the polar bear in front of us with the size of a house!
Does the other person seem friendly?
But considering the nature of carnivores, coupled with the opponent's stronger body than its own kind, razor-sharp claws and teeth.
This polar bear is most likely the boss of the family!
After a simple analysis, Penguin Skipper, who fully understood the direction, raised his head seriously and asked:
"Are you our future BOSS?"
The polar bear was stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously looked up at Dave the octopus not far away.
After seeing the other person shaking his head, he knew that this was not what Dave taught.
Bell thought for a moment and asked very politely:
"Do you like this title?"
Skib puffed up his chest and said proudly:
"Of course I'm a warrior!"
If I remember correctly, the four penguins in front of me are the Penguin Gang from the anime movie Madagascar.
But now the New York Zoo is cold.
On the one hand, it’s because in this city where the streets are full of animals.
Even a fool would not spend money to go to the zoo to see animals.
Another reason is due to several protests from the Animal Welfare Association.
This group of people believes that putting animals in cages is a form of racial discrimination.
It's like white people treated black people once and now white people inflict this behavior on animal people.
And these members of the Animal Association very wisely chose to gain the support of a large number of black people.
Because they said if black people don't support them?
The next time they are put in a cage, it will be black people like them.
Black people are afraid because they know very well that this kind of thing actually happened hundreds of years ago!
Of course, the owner of the New York Zoo.
Naturally, this evil capitalist will not pay attention to the unreasonable demands of these protesters.
But having money is not as powerful as having power.
The zoo owner can ignore the cries of these people at the bottom, but he dare not not listen to the politicians.
There is no way, the law clearly stipulates it.
Animal people are also members of this country and enjoy the treatment of national citizens.
Although in the eyes of most people, animals and black people are both worms in this country.
But they are citizens after all and have the right to vote.
Did the butterfly flap its wings and change history, or was this the original 1920s?
Polar bears don't know.
However, Bell praised Skib's military style and nodded in agreement:
"Okay, little warrior, from today on, I will be your general."
Skib the Penguin is a soldier, although he holds no rank and is unlikely to have fought in the last war given his age.
But he will hold himself to military standards.
What is the first rule of thumb for soldiers?
It's obedience!
But many people forget one thing.
Soldiers are also human beings, and are different from generals who are aloof and only need to issue orders.
The reason soldiers join the military is to protect their families!
The experience on the street gave this penguin the toughness of a soldier.
So when facing Bell, Skipper called him a general and asked:
"BOSS, please give the order!"
In his opinion, if you want to protect your family, you must prove your worth.
Dave on the side patted his forehead with his wrist, and the old octopus helplessly helped Skipper find something to do:
"There's something a little abnormal about this kid, related to his experiences, but I swear he's a good kid."
Bell nodded and signaled Dave to calm down.
The polar bear touched his pricked beard and said in a general-like command tone:
"I know, so my first order is to establish a friendly relationship with everyone in the house, considering that is a difficult task.
So my suggestion is for everyone to sit down and have a hearty breakfast. "
Skib the Penguin was confused.
What he wants to do is to make Bell understand his own value, so that he can better protect his family, so what the other party means is...
Let yourself be a bodyguard?
But there's a two-story polar bear here, and a giant octopus.
With these two behemoths alone, Skipper didn't think their four little penguins could protect anything.
Is it an ability test?
Thinking of this, Skibo's eyes lit up and he immediately puffed up his chest:
"Yes, BOSS!"
What happened next was much simpler, with the environment created by Bell and Dave last night.
I believe that the little polar bear, the Arctic shrew, and these four penguins will become good friends.
The facts were just as he thought, these children were having a great time.
However, during the play, a little penguin approached Bell little by little, with a nervous expression:
"BOSS, Skipper didn't mean it, he was just... just too nervous?"
The penguin in front of me is the smartest of the four penguins.
But still the same sentence.
As the head of the family, the polar bear knows everything about fire.
Bell, who understood what Kowalski meant, patted the little penguin on the head:
"Your name is Kowalski, right? I understand what you mean, and I can see that Skipper is taking good care of you."
Kowalski was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect this polar bear to be so smart.
Both parties understood this in such a short time.
Kowalski opened his mouth. He thought of what Bell said before breakfast, and his eyes became a little more grateful:
"Thank you, BOSS."
Bell patted Penguin No. 2 on the little head, and then pointed at the old octopus who was washing dishes in the kitchen:
“Go and play, don’t think so much when you are young, it will make you very tired.
If you feel bored?
My advice to you is to chat more with your Uncle Dave, I'm sure you will have a lot in common. "
Four penguins from the Penguin Gang.
Skib is the leader, showing the way forward.
Kowalski has the highest IQ and has amazing technological research and development capabilities.
Rick is a giant in action, and Leipwitt is a real rookie.
Geniuses are always solitary because it is difficult for ordinary people to keep up with the rhythm of their thinking.
Kowalski and Octopus Dave?
The polar bear rubbed his chin, feeling that this would be a very interesting combination.
Time passed by minute by minute.
At 8:30 in the morning, the polar bear finished reading today's newspaper and looked at the kidnapping case and follow-up reports.
Bell couldn't help but sigh.
Regardless of that era, this city has such simple folk customs.
At the same time, after seeing Bell put down the newspaper, Dave, who was holding a cutting-edge technology magazine in his hand, pointed to the kitchen with his tentacle:
"There is the carrot you want on the table on the first floor."
Bell stood up and the polar bear was putting on his coat:
"Thanks, Dave, I'll try to get home before noon."
The old octopus's eyes lit up, he touched his chin, and a brilliant idea appeared in his huge head:
"I seem to know what to do with these kids in the morning."
Bell's arm stopped. He seemed to have discovered something and couldn't help but become excited:
"Dave, did you notice something?"
Dave looked up at Bell, and the corners of the octopus's mouth raised slightly:
"Boss, what are you talking about?"
Bell: "..."
Knowing that he had been tricked, the polar bear glared at him fiercely:
"Nothing, I'll go home for lunch, and I want a double lunch!"
With that said, with the corners of the old octopus's mouth slightly raised, Bell left the house.
And after leaving home?
Bell skillfully took out his notepad and opened it to the last page.
There are many tasks on it.
Some have been completed, some have a question mark drawn behind them, and many even have an "x" representing failure.
His eyes quickly scanned to the bottom of the last page.
Mission: Octopus and four penguins.
Mission requirements: The old octopus is physically and mentally exhausted from his past encounters. Let the four penguins stay at home, and there is a certain probability of healing the old octopus's broken heart.
Mission reward: Happy mood +3, Family harmony +6
Thinking about the chemical reactions of the new members of the family, the polar bear nodded with satisfaction.
Added a "√" at the end.
