Monster Tea Party

Chapter 6004 What animal?
"What else can you say?"

Despite grumbling, the girl with the ponytail approached.

……

"...Let's apologize together."

After thinking for a moment, the short-haired girl said.

……

Girl with ponytail: ……

She rolled her eyes dramatically.

But he didn't refuse.

"hurry up."

……

"I'll count to three."

The short-haired girl said.

……

"One, two-"

……

"no."

The child finally made a sound.

She was delighted.

She immediately continued, "Don't apologize to me."

Why are you apologizing to me?

It's just baffling.

These two idiots.

……

"Then why are you crying?"

The short-haired girl paused for a moment, then said, "Isn't it because of what Nini said?"

Complaining that the children can't tell them anything, yet still expect them to come along...

Didn't the child cry because of these complaints?

……

Girl with ponytail: ……

How did it become her fault all by herself again?
She discovered that the short-haired girl was extremely cunning!

snort!
……

"no."

The child said again.

This time, her voice was much smoother.

The child gave a wry smile.

"no."

“Nini is right.”

"It is my fault."

"sorry."

The child's eyes and eyebrows were downcast.

She's the one who should apologize.

……

The girl with the ponytail seemed a little uncomfortable.

"I was just saying it offhand."

"...Don't take it seriously."

The girl with the ponytail spoke in a dry, unresponsive tone.

……

The child shook his head slightly.

The tears stopped, but my eyes and nose were still red.

There were also traces of haphazard smearing on his face.

……

"Then why are you crying?"

The short-haired woman was puzzled as to why her child was crying.

The main problem is that the child started crying without any warning.

She was startled.

……

Why are you crying...?

The child looked up at the orange tree.

Actually, she didn't quite understand either.
"Because they couldn't find the person?"

Seeing the child looking at the orange tree, the short-haired girl guessed.

……

"fine."

The girl with the ponytail seemed quite philosophical about it, saying, "I didn't find one this time."

"There will always be another chance to find it next time."

"We'll go with you again next time."

……

The child was very grateful for his friends' thoughtfulness.

I felt as comfortable as if my whole body was soaking in warm water.

"……I……"

The child tried to explain, "...I don't know if there will be a next time..."

"I never expected to run into you this time..."

"I'm so excited and thrilled..."

"But Mom and Dad..."

The child's voice trailed off.

……

What's wrong with Mom and Dad?

The girl with the ponytail asked.

……

The short-haired girl seemed lost in thought.

……

"Isn't she that older sister?"

A short-haired girl suddenly had a whimsical idea.

The child just described his parents' relationship with the anonymous person.
Since we don't know the other person's name, gender, or anything else, we'll use "anonymous" as a substitute.

...attitude...

It's very similar to how she treats her older sister.

……

"No."

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the child shook his head.

……

"How could it be the older sister?"

The girl with the ponytail shook her finger.

"Big sister always appears in front of Ya Ya."

"Ya Ya is too busy hating her older sister to even think about it..."

Why would you be excited or agitated?

……

Yes.

The short-haired girl nodded.

"Yes."

"Who did Ya Ya see?"

Have we seen them?

……

The child shook his head.

"No."

"You haven't seen it."

I wish girls with short hair or ponytails had actually seen a giant leopard...

That means...

The giant leopard wasn't her hallucination; it was a real creature.

……

"We haven't seen him..."

The girl with the ponytail shook her head, somewhat wistfully, "Ya Ya, you know so many people."

Another one... an older sister?
……

"It's not a person."

The child blurted it out.

……

After he finished speaking, there was a few seconds of silence in the air.

The child's face stiffened.

I felt a little regretful.

How did she say it?

……

The girl with the ponytail and the girl with short hair looked at each other.

"...Not human?"

The girl with the ponytail smacked her lips.

"Then what is it?"

……

"Is it an animal?"

The short-haired girl was surprised.

They're letting their kids risk being caught and scolded by their parents just to try their luck...

Is it an animal?
"kitten?"

"puppy?"

……

"Do your uncle and aunt not like animals?"

The girl with the ponytail was surprised.

and also……

"What animal is so mysterious?"

"Your aunt and uncle won't let you tell anyone?"

……

"Yes."

The short-haired girl nodded.

What kind of animal can receive the same treatment from a child's parents as an older sister?

The short-haired girl even found it somewhat unbelievable.

"Uncle and Auntie, you hate such animals..."

"Could it be a snake?"

"toad?"

"spider?"

The short-haired girl named several uncommon pets.

……

Each time the short-haired girl spoke, the ponytail girl shuddered and made a disgusted sound, "Ugh."

"Stop."

The girl with the ponytail asked, puzzled, "Why are they all reptiles?"

"Aren't there any other animals?"

"Like a little rabbit or something?"

……

"Can a little rabbit really make uncles and aunts dislike you so much?"

The short-haired girl rolled her eyes.

……

"……Oh."

The girl with the ponytail looked embarrassed.

Also.

But she soon realized something was wrong.

"But……"

Even these animals…

“I understand why your uncle and aunt don’t want Ya Ya to raise it.”

"But I don't understand why my aunt and uncle won't let Ya Ya tell anyone else."

Speaking of which...

The girl with the ponytail looked at the child with surprise.

"Ya Ya, you actually like these animals?"

"I do not even know."

That's fierce!

The girl with the ponytail gave the child a thumbs up.

Just hearing the names of these animals gave the girl with the ponytail goosebumps.

Let alone keeping one by your side.

It was a nightmare.

……

"no!"

The child shook his head in denial, his voice slightly loud, as if afraid that his friends might have misunderstood.

"I don't like them!"

The child defended himself.

"How could I possibly like them?!"

She's afraid of snakes, toads, and spiders alike, okay?

……

"It's not them."

The girl with the ponytail breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's all Xiaohua's fault for making wild guesses."

……

Short-haired girl: ...

"So what animal are you looking for?"

"Could it be..."

The short-haired girl had a flash of inspiration.

I was about to speak.

……

"and many more."

The girl with the ponytail immediately called for a stop.

"Are you going to mention some scary or disgusting animal again?"

……

Short-haired girl: ...

She shook her head.

"No."

……

"really not?"

The girl with the ponytail looked at the girl with short hair with some suspicion.

……

"No, it's not true."

The short-haired girl spoke slowly and deliberately.

"All right."

The short-haired girl interrupted the ponytail girl who was about to speak again, "Don't interrupt."

She looked at the child.

Is it a bird?

"Parrot?"

"A myna bird?"

……

The girl with the ponytail relaxed from her tense expression.
