On October 10th, the golden season, Winslow's carnival in the park began.
Li Du and Sophie stayed behind while Godzilla, Hans, and the others went back first.
The sports equipment they had collected was all signed by celebrities and was extremely valuable. Out of caution, Li Du asked them to bring all of it back.
Hans wanted to stay behind to participate in the carnival, but an official from the Department of Homeland Security called to inform him that they had arrived in Flagstaff and wanted to inquire about the eight sets of combat equipment for the Marine Corps. He had to go back to socialize.
It was still early when they drove into the park's parking lot, but there were not enough parking spaces.
Sophie was a little worried and did not look happy when she got out of the car.
Li Du asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Sophie frowned and looked at him. She mumbled, "Is there a problem with the equipment you guys got? I'm worried that the Department of Homeland Security will find trouble with you. "
Li Du laughed and said, "Don't worry, even if there is a problem, they will at most take back the equipment. They won't hold us responsible. We have done them a favor."
Seeing that he was confident, Sophie gradually became more confident.
Li Du said, "I'll call my parents first. Wait for a while and get ready to play. Don't think about anything else. Bring Ah Ow and Ah Meow and have fun."
October was the golden season, and it was also the autumn harvest season at home. They often worked until late into the night.
According to the time zone, it was past 11 o'clock at night at home. He had to make sure his parents went to bed early.
The call went through. Sure enough, his parents were not asleep and were still helping their relatives.
Li Du urged them to go to bed. Mr. and Mrs. Li had insisted on working, but when they heard that Li Du was dating a girl, they were overjoyed. They felt that their daughter-in-law had found a place to stay, so they obediently went home to rest.
Sophie had started to learn Chinese. Unfortunately, she had not learned enough and could not understand Chinese, not to mention that Li Du was speaking in a dialect.
After hanging up, Li Du brought her into the park through the main entrance.
There were several popcorn machines on both sides of the main entrance. The air was filled with a strong sweet and flavorful smell. It was so fragrant that it made one feel a little nauseous.
However, Americans loved this stuff. Some people called the American entertainment culture "popcorn culture" because no matter what kind of entertainment it was, this snack could be seen.
Li Du went to buy a bucket for Sophie. Sophie asked for a sugar-free fruit mix to take care of Ah Ow. Canines could not eat too much sugar, let alone chocolate.
Ah Ow was growing very quickly. She was getting bigger and bigger, and Sophie was having a hard time carrying her.
Ah Meow, Crispy Noodles, and Ah Meow followed behind Sophie. Every popcorn Sophie ate, she would throw a few behind her. The three of them fought over the popcorn and ate happily.
Pets could be brought into the park. This carnival was meant to be lively. Pets could liven up the atmosphere, and the park would not reject them.
However, there were not many people who brought pets to the park. Not a single person brought an ocelot, a wolf, or a raccoon. As such, Li Du and his group attracted a lot of attention.
The song "Take-It-Easy" was still playing in the park, but it was not played through a computer. Instead, there was a band singing it, and several bands were performing it in different styles.
Sophie was very accomplished in music. She could tell the style of the band with just one listen. She introduced, "This is country music, this is jazz, and there's hip-hop. The rhythm is really good …"
At first, Li Du felt that the song was quite good. However, he was a little tired of listening to it. He had no interest in it.
However, Sophie was very interested in it. He forced himself to continue listening. He couldn't possibly spoil his girlfriend's mood, right?
Sophie noticed the change in his mood. She considerately took his hand and walked into the park.
Li Du said, "Why aren't you listening?"
Sophie mimicked him and made a listless expression. She dragged out her voice and said, "Who doesn't want to listen to it anymore? Haha. "
Li Du was amused by her. He laughed and said, "I really feel that it's boring. It's because I've listened to it too much. However, I can continue listening. I didn't expect you to like this song so much."
Sophie explained, "No, I've also heard it many times. However, they sang it in different ways, which was very novel to me."
For her, every new way of singing a song was a new world to her. Li Du did not have the corresponding artistic qualities, so he could not feel this.
He did not have to feel bored. There were many things to do.
The three little ones surrounded Sophie, asking for popcorn to eat. At that moment, a few five or six-year-old kids saw them. Obviously, Ah Ow, Ah Meow, and the others were very attractive to children. They were excited and ran over with snacks.
Popcorn, roasted sausages, cotton candy, fruit salad, and potato chips were very tempting to the three little ones.
Ah Ow and Crispy Noodles were gluttons. When they saw that someone was handing them food, they immediately ran over.
Ah Meow was more reserved. He looked at the few little ones with disdain and stayed by Sophie's side with his head held high.
This was the nature of ocelots. They were unruly and independent, proud and unruly. They could not be tamed by food.
Ah Ow and Crispy Noodles did not care. They shamelessly gathered around the children to eat.
The children were very friendly. They giggled and fed the two of them. Occasionally, they ate by themselves. The little ones shared the food together. It was a very harmonious scene.
Li Du looked at Ah Meow and said, "Cats are proud. They only eat food from their owners. This is very good."
Sophie said, "In fact, ocelots like to hunt by themselves. They also don't like to be fed by their owners. This is their pride."
Ah Meow seemed to understand Sophie's words. Or maybe he could not stand it anymore. Seeing the two little ones enjoying the food happily, he was very dissatisfied and walked over.
A child stretched out his hand to Ah Meow. There was a small piece of fried fish in his hand. He said in a childish voice, "Meow, give it to Fishy."
Ah Meow gave him a sidelong glance. Little brat, what do you mean? Honest people don't accept food in handouts, do you understand? I don't want to eat this thing of yours, okay?
But he really wanted to eat fried fish. What should he do?
Ah Meow did not need to run. He walked to the side of the child and jumped up. With a swipe of his paw, he grabbed a piece of fried fish from the paper box in the child's hand.
As his body fell, Ah Meow put the piece of fried fish into his mouth. This way, he landed on all fours as if nothing had happened. He continued to walk leisurely with his head held high and his tail wagging.
The people around them were dumbfounded. Someone exclaimed, "God, this cat is amazing!"
A child was holding a fragrant chocolate-flavored popcorn. Ah Meow jumped into the air again, grabbed a piece of popcorn and stuffed it into his mouth. Then, he landed leisurely.
Just like that, he walked and snatched food. It was so comfortable!
Li Du looked at Sophie and said, "You're right. Ocelots like to hunt by themselves, just like Ah Meow, right?"
Sophie covered her face. "Where did Ah Meow learn this bad habit? Is this hunting? No, this is robbery! "
