There's a chat group for pets in my neighborhood.

"I haven't decided yet." Qin Zhuyan hesitated for a moment. "Let's wait until I'm done with this busy period. Today is Friday, and the shop is closed next Thursday. Let's go on Thursday."

She quickly set a date.

"Then Thursday it is." Lu Fang nodded and agreed.

I've been working non-stop lately with almost no rest, so this is a good opportunity to give myself a break.

"Get some rest." With one thing on her mind, Qin Zhuyan said goodnight to Lu Fang and turned to go back to her room.

Lu Fang carried the police chief back to the room to settle him in, and then quickly took a shower.

When I returned, the sheriff was already curled up in the cat bed, fast asleep.

He leaned against the headboard, somewhat wistful.

To think that I had become an ally of a cat on the same side, and that it was even helping me hide my identity, is truly a fantastical world.

Lu Fang's gaze fell on the sheriff, whose body rose and fell slightly with his breathing.

I don't know what the sheriff's past was like. Judging from its behavior and its overly familiar attitude, it was obviously a pet before, but later became a stray cat for some unknown reason.

However, if the police chief doesn't bring it up, the mainland authorities are unlikely to ask him themselves.

Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore.

sleep!

Tomorrow is another day!

Perhaps because he had revealed his identity to the police chief, Lu Fang slept very soundly that night.

He didn't get up until noon the next day. Qin Zhuyan didn't urge him to go to work, but instead left him breakfast as usual.

When he arrived at the pet store, the raccoon dog and the dog walker's bone, which had been prepared in advance, had already sneaked into the house and given the sheriff a grand welcome back party.

During this time, the cats also pressed Lu Fang about his true identity, but the sheriff brushed them off.

With this endorsement, Lu Fang's credibility skyrocketed, and no one questioned it anymore. They simply assumed he was too busy to meet him.

At 8 p.m., Lu Fang returned home after getting off work.

I had just turned on my phone when I saw Brother Li pop up in the group chat.

"I hereby announce the official start of the 34th Tiancheng Community Monthly Competition: The Longest Time Spent in the Bathroom Livestream Competition!"

He ordered takeout from Shaxian Snacks, planning to eat while watching what kind of trouble these kids would cause.

As soon as Lu Fang opened the takeout box and set up his phone, contestant number one appeared.

The first contestant to appear was an old acquaintance: "I have a renovation plan."

The video feed lit up, and it was now squatting outside the bathroom. Inside, besides the sound of dripping water, there was Jiang Feng's appalling singing voice.

"The vast horizon is my love, flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills, what kind of rhythm is the most swaying..."

Just as he was singing with the most passion, I had a renovation plan that directly forced open the unlocked bathroom door.

A naked man with a decent physique.

Lu Fang only glanced at it before stopping his eating.

Are you kidding me? Eating while watching other men take a shower is just too weird!

At this moment, Jiang Feng had no idea that his singing while showering had been broadcast live. He stood under the showerhead with his eyes closed, singing with complete absorption.

And I, with a renovation plan in mind, just stood outside staring blankly at him.

Sparrow Know-It-All: "It seems my renovation plan is going quite well. Its owner probably won't open its eyes until this song is over, at least for a minute or so."

"Legs that are 1.8 meters long: Just lucky!"

Just as everyone was discussing its achievements, I had a renovation plan. Listening to Jiang Feng's "moving" singing voice, I actually felt a certain resonance. I saw it raise its neck and howl, trying to join in the singing.

That shout almost scared Jiang Feng to death. He plopped down on the ground, wiped the water off his face, and immediately saw the wailing and howling "I have a renovation plan" inside.

"Who gave you permission to come in while you're taking a shower? Get out!"

In less than thirty seconds, my renovation plan was kicked out of the bathroom by a bath towel, which was slapping my butt and tucking my tail between my legs.

Socialite Tanuki: "Unfortunately, contestant number one has a renovation plan. Final effective time: thirty seconds!"

Sparrow asked, "I think this contestant has a lot of musical talent."

A dog walk costs money, and you get a bone with each visit: "For you, I'd become a werewolf. For you, I've gone mad."

The next contestant to appear is the one with the longest legs, who is the most active chatter in the group.

It had already made some tough statements before it even appeared on stage.

It will definitely win first place in this competition!

The live stream started, and it was seen sneaking inside. The video shook for a moment, and you could see that it was hiding next to the toilet, peeking out furtively.

Steam filled the bathroom, and warm water trickled down her calves, eventually gathering at her feet.

Like a piece of fine jade, her toenails were painted bright red, adding an extra touch of allure to the scene.

It's very moisturizing.

However, only Lu Fang could barely appreciate such a beautiful view; the other animals were all anxiously watching the time.

Lu Fang picked up his takeout and started thinking about what to do if that person with legs 1.8 meters long looked up at him. Should he keep his eyes open or closed?

Unfortunately, he waited until the live stream ended, but he never got to see the scene he wanted.

The reason is simple: the corgi's chassis is too low. Even if you look up, you can only see his calves!

However, thanks to its superior chassis, the 1.8-meter-long legs that were hiding next to the toilet managed to stay hidden until the shower was over before being discovered.

Socialite Tanuki: "Contestant number two has legs that are 1.8 meters long. Final valid score: 20 minutes and 15 seconds!"

Sparrow Know-It-All said, "Having short legs does have its advantages."

A dog walk costs one bone per visit: "Some people always lose something for every gain they make."

The next contestants to appear were even more chaotic and disorganized.

There was a golden shaded dog hidden in the laundry basket, and the cherry blossoms from my hometown that had been staring at my male owner's lower body. They were eventually kicked out by my owner, who couldn't accept the cross-species gaze. And then there was me, who had just sneaked in and was discovered by my owner, and who took a bath with me. My smile is really beautiful.

Some small dogs couldn't even get through the door and were locked outside, ending the challenge with a score of zero.

So far, the best result is 20 minutes and 15 seconds, achieved by someone with legs that are 1.8 meters long.

This guy's tail is practically sticking up in the air, if it even has a tail.

Just when everyone thought the longest live stream in the bathroom competition was about to end, Lu Fang suddenly appeared.

Can I participate too?

Socialite Tanuki: "Of course! You're back after you finished your work?"

"Legs 1.8 meters long: @My God, give up! As a Border Collie, you could never stay here as long as I do!"

Just as he was confidently declaring that his legs were 1.8 meters long, Lu Fang gave a wicked smile.

Are you kidding me? Who's the Border Collie?!

I record myself taking a shower, and I can easily win first place!
