The pet I raised comes from the second dimension.

Located at the top of the slide, the view from above is just like a general standing on a command platform, with the ball-shaped objects below all acting as soldiers.

This feeling is amazing!

Donas was so excited that her whole body trembled uncontrollably.

It imagines the Popoballs as one after another Doro warriors of its own kind.

As the great general, I must command the warriors to charge against the evil dragon...

"Kill!"

Suddenly she shouted, her eyes resolute, and she leaped down the slide.

The proper way to play on a slide is to touch the slope with your bottom.
But Donas lay face down.

Its idea is that when it slides down to the bottom of the slope, it will feel like it's flying.

It flew straight into the ball pit!
There was a loud "bang".
Donas strikes a Superman flying pose in mid-air after escaping the slide's slope and falls into a sea of ​​balls.

Each colorful bubble ball acts as a cushioning element.
Falling into the sea of ​​balls didn't hurt at all.
I feel a little dizzy.

Emerging from the sea of ​​balls, Donas was dazzled, but after shaking her head, she returned to normal.

"Ok!"

"I want to play again."

Donas muttered to herself as she went around to the back of the slide and climbed back up to experience the joy a second time.

After entering the shopping mall, Dorothy looked at the rocking car and the slide.

Doraemon loves playing on rocking horses.

Dorothy, however, found the rocking horse rather uninteresting.

Donas loves slides—

Dorothy also thought the slide wasn't fun enough.

Dorothy's hobby is reading and learning. In her mind, entertainment that allows her to learn new things is the only kind of fun.

So, what kind of entertainment is available on the first floor of the shopping mall, where you can learn something?

Adjusting her glasses, Dorothy looked around and finally fixed her gaze on a piano.

Doraemon can play the ukulele; Donas has a talent for percussion.

(Donas's percussion talent is simply that she is good at banging and tapping.)
So should I learn to play the piano?
While pondering her thoughts, Dorothy walked towards the piano and sat down in the chair in front of the keys.

Press any button randomly...

"Do~"

The piano's soundbox resonated with the Sol scale in C major.

"So fun!"

The melodious and pleasant tone immediately piqued Dorothy's interest.

Trying the buttons next to her, Dorothy simultaneously pressed the F and La scales in C major, causing the speaker to produce a mysterious chord.

Discovering that Dorothy was interested in the piano, Su Qingyao followed her and sat down next to her.

Because Doro's arms are much shorter than human arms.

Dorothy needs to raise her arms to touch the piano keys.
The longer it goes on, the more tired you get.

Su Qingyao lifted Dorothy onto her lap and supported her waist with both hands to make it easier for her to play the piano.

"Dorothy, do you like the piano? I can play 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.' When I was in junior high, we had music class, and the teacher asked us to buy a harmonica and teach us." Su Qingyao hugged Dorothy even tighter. "Do you want to learn 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star'? If you do, I can teach you. If you can learn it, I'll buy you a piano that's your own when we move into our new house."

Every word Su Qingyao said was the truth.

She can indeed play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" on the piano.

However, I haven't played the piano for several years, so I'm a bit rusty.

but,
Although I might occasionally play a wrong note,
Dorothy thought Su Qingyao's piano skills were quite impressive.

Blinking her big eyes, Dorothy pouted her lips into an "o" shape and praised without reservation: "Sister Su is so amazing! You are much better than others in music. Others are tone-deaf idiots who can't play any instruments."

"Hehe~. I'm not that great, I'm not even an amateur. Your brother Xiaosong can whistle, he actually has musical talent." Su Qingyao gently stroked Dorothy's head.

Huang Musong is playing on the rocking car with Duoluo.

He could clearly hear his girlfriend's conversation with Dorothy.

how to say……

—May I ask the celestial palace, when will we meet again? My heart yearns to return, and I will fly over mountains and passes.

At this moment, Huang Musong silently sang the internet hit "Tang Dynasty Love Song" in his heart.

You should know that I grew up in Jigaoguanda, and even my primary school was a third-rate village school.

Rural schools don't even have a decent playground!

When I got to junior high school and went to school in the city, the quality of education was still disappointing.

What is a music class?
Aren't the music teacher and the PE teacher both on sick leave?
Huang Musong does not remember taking music classes in junior high school.

Buying a harmonica is out of the question!
When I was a child, the economic situation made it difficult to even get enough protein every day.

How could a test-taker from a small town in one of the four unfortunate provinces possibly be as multi-talented as their peers in the capital who receive a well-rounded education?

Thinking of these things, Huang Musong gave a self-deprecating smile and quickly regained his composure.

Since I didn't have the opportunity to experience a rich and colorful extracurricular life when I was a child,
Now we must provide the doro with the best resources!
"Dora."

Do you like listening to concerts? They're usually large ensembles of traditional musical instruments.

"Someone gave me ten free tickets. If you'd like, how about we go see a folk music ensemble perform tomorrow night?"

As Huang Musong spoke, he re-scanned the QR code for the Doraemon rocking car to extend its lifespan.

After riding the rocking car twice, Doraemon was satisfied and planned to find other entertainment options.

Since people still have to pay for their own renewals,

It would be great to play it one more time!

Doro remained seated in the rocking car, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Human, what is a folk music ensemble performance? I don't really understand. Can you explain it in more detail? Although I'm a bit slow, I'll listen carefully and try my best to think."

Blink,
Doro smiled broadly, eagerly awaiting Huang Musong's detailed account of the orchestra's performance.

Huang Musong hesitated, truly stumped by the question, unable to provide a detailed explanation.

"The folk music ensemble is performing..."

"You can think of it as watching a movie?"

"Yes! It's similar to watching a movie; one involves watching, and the other involves listening."

This is the best that can be explained. Huang Musong was definitely not trying to fob off Duoluo; he genuinely knew very little about folk music.

"So, do people want to go to a band performance?" Doro asked.

This time, Huang Musong didn't think too much about it and subconsciously replied, "If you want to go, I want to go. If you don't want to go, I don't want to go. Anyway, it's a free ticket, so it doesn't matter whether I go or not."

After hearing what the person said, Doraemon immediately nodded and explained his thoughts.

"go with!"

"I want to go."

"Although the tickets were a gift and didn't cost any money, wasting them is still a waste of money. If it won't tire you out, let's go to the orchestra's performance tomorrow night."

With a bright smile, showing off his white teeth, Doro grinned broadly.

Huang Musong responded with a slight smile and agreed with a "Okay".

Compared to Doraemon, who has rocking cars to play with, Donas, who likes slides, and Dorothy, who is interested in playing the piano, Pina has yet to find any particular form of entertainment she wants to play.

Play anything is fine.
It doesn't matter if you don't play.
Pina's mindset is that she feels indifferent towards entertainment-related projects.

The root cause of this situation is that Pina has not yet completely overcome the aftereffects of living alone on the streets!

Pina believes that time and money should be spent wisely, namely, to eat well, dress warmly, and live comfortably.

Although it already has no shortage of food, clothing, and other necessities,
However, a change in the underlying mindset still requires a gradual process.

Seeing Pina doing nothing, Huang Musong squatted down and went up to her: "You don't want to play on the rocking horse? It seems you're not interested in playing the piano or going down the slide. Are you hungry? How about I take you to buy some snacks?"

Because the Doro aren't very hungry yet.

If you want to eat, you'll have to wait another half hour.

Half an hour later, I'll buy Pina some snacks to tide her over; it won't be too hard for her.

Pina, however, remained silent and shook her head, indicating that she wasn't hungry, but simply didn't want to waste her energy on entertainment: "Playing is an extremely energy-consuming activity. Playing for ten more minutes each day requires eating a large bite of food, which is unnecessary. I want every penny I earn to have a visible purpose, like buying cat and dog food to feed stray cats and dogs in the wild..."

Pina explained her true thoughts to Huang Musong in detail. Having understood her line of reasoning, Huang Musong didn't say anything more, only nodding in agreement.

That's right!

The little creatures living in the wild should be aware of this—

—All actions should be guided by the principle of survival and living more comfortably.

Nothing is more important than being alive.
Life is the most precious thing.

However, Pina is no longer a homeless person, and Huang Musong plans to subtly correct Pina's perception.

Just like when we corrected Doraemon's understanding!
After a moment's thought, Huang Musong casually used "going to the restroom" as an excuse to leave for a full half hour.

The half hour was enough for the doro to have a very satisfying time.

Pina, on the other hand, strolled around to conserve her energy.

After Huang Musong returned, he didn't say a word and went straight to take the kids to eat.

There are very few non-pre-prepared food restaurants located inside shopping malls.

Huang Musong chose to eat at the 'Dong Family Courtyard' roast duck restaurant, which has recently become popular in the capital region.

Whether a roast duck is pre-cooked or not can be tasted immediately.

The owner of a roast duck restaurant would never ruin his reputation to save costs.

The meal consisted of two people and four children, who ate a total of four roast ducks and six stir-fried dishes.

They had so much fun that the doro were exhausted and hungry, and they had to lean against the wall to get into the restaurant.

He had to lean against the wall to leave the restaurant.
They were all stuffed.

It was only 7 p.m. after dinner, and there was still plenty of time to play. The Doro members started discussing what to do next...

Before the four little ones could reach a consensus.
Huang Musong quickly suggested, "Let's go up the escalator, explore each floor, and play whatever looks fun."

Upon hearing this, the quick-witted Dorothy was the first to raise her hand in agreement, shouting, "There's a movie theater on the top floor! I want to watch a movie!"

Bring the little ones to the shopping mall to play.
One of Huang Musong's real intentions was to let the Doro watch a movie.

I was only gone for half an hour.

It's likely that Dorothy guessed the movie-going plan during her conversation with Su Qingyao.

"it is good."

“Let’s play until the end and then go see a movie,” Huang Musong agreed, patting Dorothy’s head.

Donas has little interest in watching movies.

But since Dorothy wants to watch a movie, it will also join in so as not to spoil its friend's fun.

As for how to make up for accommodating Dorothy by going to the movies...

"people!"

"Remember to buy me popcorn."

"I want two large... oh no! I want three large buckets, the more the better," Donas told Huang Musong without any hesitation.

Huang Musong smiled helplessly.

Donas has a good eye for choice; she insisted on eating popcorn at the movie theater, which cost 50 yuan a bucket—that's ridiculously expensive.

Forget it~
Spoil it a little more today.

Without saying a word, Huang Musong nodded in agreement and began leading the four little ones upstairs.

The second floor of the shopping mall is the children's clothing section. Since the doro fans don't lack clothes these days, they didn't linger for long.

The third and fourth floors are for men's and women's clothing, respectively.

It doesn't mean much to Doro either.

When passing by a certain women's clothing store, Dorothy paused for a moment, as if she was thinking about something.

It thought about it for a moment and then continued to follow the main group.

Finally, we arrived at the fifth floor, a hub for youth entertainment venues!
Looking around, you can see old-fashioned, nostalgic Street Fighter game consoles, as well as cutting-edge VR e-sports equipment...

The four little ones were instantly captivated by many games they had never seen before.

Unfortunately, VR games are only for humans to play; the doro are small animals and can't experience them.

Furthermore, the Doro don't seem to have much interest in VR games.

The four kids prefer Street Fighter consoles.

Heading straight for the game console, Donas quickly scanned the code to pay and turn it on, then pulled Dorothy along to play with her.

"You know I'm not interested in fighting! I don't like games that involve fighting and killing." Dorothy sighed and tried to refuse.

Donas didn't care about any of that; the money was already paid and couldn't be refunded.

"Play three rounds with me!"

"Okay?" Donas asked, nuzzling Dorothy's cheek with a pleading tone.

Donas rarely acts coquettishly towards anyone.
Even when they are with their partners, they don't often cling to them.

Now, faced with Donas's request, Dorothy felt embarrassed to refuse again.

"Row!"

"I promised to only play three games with you."

With the thought that she was bound to lose, Dorothy sat down and started playing PvP mode with Donas.

The result was unexpected?

Dorothy wins decisively!
Donas's athletic talent was as high as her gaming talent; she was knocked out in all three games.
"Three more rounds!"

The more she lost, the more defiant she became. Donas blushed and decisively paid to restart the game.

Because winning felt so good, Dorothy became addicted and continued to play with Donas...

Doro and Pina, guided by Huang Musong, arrived at a specially modified claw machine.

The claw machine is full of cute orange plush toys!
Doro was immediately captivated and couldn't move.

Before Doraemon could speak, Huang Musong feigned surprise and pointed to the sticker: "What? Three Orunji plushies won from the claw machine can be exchanged for a small bag of cat food at the service desk? Five Orunji plushies can be exchanged for a large bag of dog food?"

"Pretty good!"

"Unfortunately, you doro don't belong to the cat or dog category."

"Cat food and dog food are not on your menu."

Classic example of feigning indifference to lure someone in.

Huang Musong's words implied that he did not recommend that Doro and Pina play the claw machine.

The reality, however, would actually make Pina very interested in claw machines.

"Can I exchange it for cat food or dog food?"

"This is a good thing!"

"Dora, let's grab all the Orunji plushies from the claw machine and exchange them for cat and dog food to feed the stray animals."

“The cold winter is too hard to bear. If the kittens and puppies don’t get enough food, they will freeze to death…” Pina said as she scanned the code to start the machine and tried to grab the Orunji doll.

Doro had previously saved up money to buy cat food to feed stray cats.

Of course, I wouldn't refuse Pina now.

Doraemon immediately mustered his energy and helped Pina operate the remote control.

Watching the four little ones having fun, Huang Musong stood with his hands behind his back, revealing a meaningful smile.

He had left for half an hour earlier to find the entertainment area manager and negotiate with them to adjust the reward system and success rate of the claw machines.

The reward system will be temporarily changed to give Pina real benefits, allowing her to gradually change her perception...

To increase the success rate of claw machines, making it easier for Doro to redeem cat and dog food after winning a plush toy...

The cat and dog food as rewards were, of course, also purchased in advance by Huang Musong.
All the waiters need to do is put on a little act.

As for doing it this way, the expenses are far greater than buying cat food or dog food directly, but Huang Musong doesn't mind at all.

What could be more important than the smiles of the Doro?

Spend more money
Let Doraemon and Pina be happy.
worth!

"The Doro's happiness is my happiness..." Huang Musong thought to himself. (End of Chapter)
