Chapter 18: Interesting Things at the Park
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ji Yu jogged along the riverside park.
“Regulations and Purple Moon. Looks like things are turning from bad to worse.”
Ji Yu’s mind was filled with the conversation between the two men.
The first appearance of the Purple Moon was on a night three years ago. At that time, most people thought of it as a peculiar natural phenomenon.
However, after the Purple Moon appeared three or four times more, the harm it caused became palpable.
There were no abnormalities near Ji Yu’s workplace. His knowledge of the dangers caused by the Purple Moon was limited to what was broadcasted on the news by Line’s Federation Television Station.
At that time, the news reported that many people were tied to hospital beds, and their symptoms were horrifying.
Their hands tried to grab and pull at anything they could. Their eyes were bloodshot and their lips which were bitten by themselves were smeared in blood.
A small portion of them showed symptoms of insanity, while a larger portion of them became extremely sensitive, as if they were surrounded by terrifying monsters. They were constantly shivering, curling into themselves, and some were even shouting non-stop.
In short, after the news report, the dangers of the Purple Moon became evident.
The conclusion officials gave to the public was:
The purple light from the Purple Moon was a type of radiation which was harmful to the human nervous system.
The main damage was caused to the brain.
It would cause one to experience severe hallucinations and eventually die.
However, perhaps to appease the public or due to economic factors, the officials gave another conclusion.
Even if they were exposed to the Purple Moon, as long as it was not over a long period of time, it would not cause serious problems. In just a few days, the radiation within the body would gradually degrade.
At the same time, the incidence rate caused by the Purple Moon’s radiation differed according to everyone’s physique.
Hence, from then onwards, officials requested for people to take precautions and to not go out during the Purple Moon phenomenon.
That was all of what Ji Yu knew as someone who was at the bottom of the society.
There were no forewarnings to the Purple Moon’s appearance, nor was there any scientific explanation that could convince everyone.
It might appear once every two months or once every half a month, and the duration of the phenomenon varied as well.
Sometimes the phenomenon happened for only an hour or two at night. Yet, there were times when it lasted for eight hours.
In short, no one was able to determine the frequency and duration of the phenomenon.
In the past, Ji Yu would have been happy to accept the conclusion of the Purple Moon radiation given by officials.
But now, Ji Yu felt that things were definitely not that simple.
Although Ji Yu didn’t know how dangerous the Purple Moon was, it was fortunate that he was no longer the ordinary salaryman which he used to be.
Thinking about that, Ji Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he gradually slowed in his jog.
It was not because Ji Yu was tired, nor was it because he wanted to enjoy the scenery of the riverside park, but because he heard countless shouts behind him.
He heard a lot of barking amidst the shouts.
Because he had been too engrossed in thinking about the Purple Moon, he had only just caught on to the noise behind him and he had no idea if he should laugh or cry at it.
Turning around, Ji Yu realized that five different sized dogs of different breeds were following a few meters behind him.
Amongst them was a Pekingese, a Shiba Inu, and a Husky.
The moment Ji Yu stopped, they charged towards him excitedly.
The little Pekingese was the most excited. After barking, it jumped into Ji Yu’s arms.
The other four dogs were barking excitedly at him as they circled around him.
Ji Yu was flattered by their enthusiasm.
And not just that.
At that moment, on a tree in the riverside park, some birds were hopping around.
The birds were all looking at Ji Yu in curiosity.
Some of them tilted their heads as they stared at Ji Yu. They looked happy, chirping with their companions, looking as if they wanted to fly towards Ji Yu.
However, perhaps because they were afraid of the dogs and the passers-by beside Ji Yu, the birds eventually decided to stay on the tree.
Holding the Pekingese in his arms, Ji Yu endured the little fellow’s licking his face and hurriedly looked at the breathless dog owners who had rushed over.
“F*ck, brother, aren’t you too good at running?”
“We chased after you all the way and you didn’t even turn back no matter how many times we called you. Are you deliberately trying to bully a fatty like me?”
The one who spoke was a young man who was less than 1.70 meters tall but weighed around 180 jin.
At this moment, he was panting heavily.
He looked extremely embarrassing and comical.
“That’s right. Young man, you are too heartless. I’m an old man who’s almost 70 years old. God forbid should anything happen to me because I ran.” A spirited old man arrived and said with a smile while complaining.
Ji Yu felt helpless.
The heavens and earth could bear witness, this matter really couldn’t be blamed on him.
It was all because of his characteristic, Nature’s Affinity.
However, he couldn’t say that even if he was thinking it.
Hence, Ji Yu said in amusement,
“Sorry, I was thinking about something while jogging just now so I didn’t notice your situation with these dogs. I’m really sorry.”
“Thinking about something?” The fatty, Ma Hongyu, questioned with a look of disbelief on his face.
However, Ma Hongyu also knew that he couldn’t blame the man in front of him for this matter. After all, it was his dog which had gone nuts and suddenly ran after someone else.
Therefore, he did not want to dwell on this matter.
“Alright, I’ll take it that you weren’t paying attention. But I’m curious, what method did you use to make these guys follow you so enthusiastically?”
“My Xuexue has never been so energetic towards me. You’re making me jealous.”
Ma Hongyu looked at the Pekingese in Ji Yu’s arms strangely.
At that moment, although Xuexue didn’t continue to lick Ji Yu’s face, it kept rubbing its head affectionately against Ji Yu’s chin while wagging its tail.
Ji Yu felt awkward. He had not thought of an excuse, so he could only jest,
“I might have a natural disposition that dogs like?”
“Might?”
Ma Hongyu rolled his eyes.
Just as he was about to say something else, the grandpa and auntie behind him interrupted.
“Alright, alright. The two of you can chat later. Right now, shouldn’t you settle our problem first?”
Ji Yu and Ma Hongyu were stunned.
It was only then that he noticed the grandpa and auntie tugging at their dogs’ leash as they tried to pull them away.
However, the dogs didn’t care at all. They even plopped onto the ground next to Ji Yu and looked at him pitifully.
“F*ck, brother, you’re awesome!”
Ma Hongyu looked at the dogs’ expressions in shock.
He even believed that Ji Yu really had a special natural disposition of being loved by dogs.
Ji Yu was speechless and did not want to talk to this talkative fatty.
Squatting down, Ji Yu reached out in fond exasperation as he stroked the heads of the few dogs which were looking pitiful.
After sensing the affection that these little guys had for him, he became even more attentive to his interactions with them.
After a long time, under the reluctant gazes of the dogs, they finally followed their owners home.
During this period of time, the fatty Ma Hongyu was practically worshipping Ji Yu.
The few old uncles and aunties who had just left looked at Ji Yu in shock.
They even wondered if Ji Yu owned a pet store, so they asked him for his name card, saying that they would go to his store to spend if they could.
In short, after settling this matter, Ji Yu felt mentally exhausted.
However, the words of these uncles and aunties also made Ji Yu’s mind run.
“It seems like I can really open a pet shop? I’ll definitely earn tons.”
