Zhang Zian raised his hand awkwardly. The mini poodle was personally trained by him. Usually, even if it barked a few times, it would be obedient as soon as he raised his hand to stop it. However, his hand signals were unusually ineffective today.
As a guard dog, a small dog was actually better than a medium-sized dog like the Silly Sled Three and the Golden Retriever. The Silly Sled Three and the Golden Retriever would wag their tails enthusiastically when they saw a stranger, even if the stranger was a burglar.
If the mini poodle barked because it found a burglar and wanted to warn Zhang Zian, he would reward it. However, the girl next to it was a customer. She didn't look like a burglar or any other criminal, so there was no reason for her to bark.
"What are you barking for?!"
Fina, who was sleeping, was annoyed. It stood up from the cat tree with a meow and stared down at Fina angrily. Unfortunately, its deterrence was only effective against cats. It wasn't very effective against this mini poodle.
"I'll castrate you if you bark again!" Snowy Lionet licked its paws and stared at Zhang Zian.
"Make it shut up! Otherwise, I'll make it shut up! "Fina stared at Zhang Zian angrily when the mini poodle ignored her.
Zhang Zian was speechless.
Old Time Tea, who was watching TV, couldn't stand it anymore. The mini poodle completely drowned out the dubbing on TV. It was just like the old advertising slogan: "No sound, no good show."
Famous, who was busy taking photos with fans during the day, finally had a chance to enjoy some free time in the morning. It closed its eyes and took a nap, recalling its dream from last night. However, it was also annoyed by the noise.
"Quack! Quack, quack, quack! "Richard thought someone was competing with him, and began to quack as well. For a moment, the whole shop was in chaos.
Galaxy was not affected. It chased after the American Shorthair quickly. It only stopped to look at it, then continued chasing.
As for the two people upstairs, they might have heard the barking, but it wasn't clear if they were affected.
Even the puppies in the display cabinet were influenced by the mini poodle's barking. They started barking, but of course, their voices were much lower.
The mini poodle was not only barking, but it was also approaching the girl fiercely.
"This dog won't bite, right?" She stepped back timidly.
"No, don't worry," Zhang Zian quickly said.
She obviously didn't believe it. "Really? I heard that all dog owners say that their dogs won't bite, but in reality … "
Zhang Zian felt even more embarrassed.
He also knew that some people walked their dogs without leashes. If their dogs barked at others, and the others were afraid, they would confidently say that their dogs would not bite. Everyone thought that their dogs would not bite, but dogs often did not bite their owners.
Usually, he was sure that the poodle wouldn't bite people, but its behavior today made him a little uncertain. Who knew if it would rush up and bite him? If he really bit a customer, then it would be troublesome. Compensation and apology were a small matter, but it would affect his reputation.
Wang Qian moved closer and whispered in his ear, "That … Master, could it be that this dog was …"
As he spoke, he made a scratching gesture, meaning to ask if the mini poodle had been scratched by the rabid Siamese cat when they weren't paying attention and further infected it with rabies. Otherwise, why would it scream so loudly? Due to the presence of customers, he didn't say it directly to avoid affecting the store's reputation.
Zhang Zian shook his head and told him not to make wild guesses.
The Siamese cat didn't have any physical contact with the poodle that day. How could it have been infected? Besides, the poodle didn't show any symptoms of rabies, so such guesses were completely groundless.
"I'm sorry, this dog is usually very obedient. I don't know why it's acting like this," Zhang Zian said honestly. He moved his body between the poodle and the female customer to prevent it from suddenly jumping over and biting her.
However, when he moved, it also moved, circling to the side and continuing to bark at her.
"It seems that this dog doesn't like me …" She laughed self-mockingly. "I can't believe that I've fallen to the point where even dogs don't like me …"
Zhang Zian was confused by the poodle's barking. He kept thinking about the reason in his mind and didn't think about what she said. He said casually, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry … I'll bring this dog upstairs immediately. Customer, please wait for a moment …"
"Forget it, it's okay. I'll leave first. Boss, you're right. I came here too rashly. I should think about what kind of pet I want …" She sighed and said, "I'll leave first. I'll come back when I've thought about it …"
Zhang Zian wanted to send her away earlier, but he felt bad that she had to leave because of this.
"Customer, you …"
Before he could ask her to stay, he saw her turn around to leave. However, she only turned halfway before her body softly fell down as if she had lost all her strength.
Zhang Zian's body moved faster than his mind. He rushed forward and put his arm around her back, while his other hand grabbed her arm.
Fortunately, he was close and reacted in time. Otherwise, she might have fallen to the ground, and her forehead might even hit the doorstep.
"Hey! What's wrong with you? Wake up! "
Zhang Zian supported her body with his arm and didn't know what to do. He could only call out to her in vain, just like in the TV series. He thought to himself, How could she fall just like that? Lin Daiyu's reincarnation?
Wang Qian and Lu Yi Yun were stunned for a moment. They quickly put down their work and ran over.
"Master, you didn't even touch her. How could she fall just like that? I think you should put her on the ground. Maybe she's trying to blackmail us … "Wang Qian's imagination was pretty good, and his vigilance was commendable.
"Mr. Store Manager, should we call an ambulance?" Lu Yi Yun asked anxiously.
She obviously wasn't faking it. Her eyes were closed and she was unconscious. Her face was terrifyingly pale, and her body was covered in sweat. If this was acting, she would definitely be the Best Actress of the Berlin Film Festival next year.
Old Time Tea and Famous also came over with concern.
Zhang Zian swatted away Snowy Lionet's paw that was quietly reaching for her chest, but his hand accidentally touched a hard thing on her waist. It didn't look like a waist bag.
He lifted up her shirt slightly and was surprised to see a plastic device with an LCD screen hanging on her waist. There was also a thin transparent plastic catheter sticking out of the device and drilling into the skin next to her belly button. The connection between the catheter and the skin was covered with gauze and medical tape.
The LCD screen was flashing, but no one present could understand what it meant.
"What is this? It looks like the legendary pager, "Wang Qian said seriously." Is she a time traveler from the past? "
Zhang Zian didn't know what kind of device it was, but he was sure that it wasn't a pager, and she couldn't be a time traveler.
Lu Yi Yun tried to help her pinch her philtrum, but it didn't work.
"Let's call an ambulance," Zhang Zian said. He sighed to himself that he was really unlucky to encounter such a thing so early in the morning.
Lu Yi Yun picked up her phone and dialed, telling the emergency center the address.
The mini poodle was still barking, but its voice was a little softer.
Just then, another dog barked. The sound came from outside. Apparently, it had heard the poodle's barking and was barking along.
Zhang Zian didn't pay much attention to it. He thought it was an old man or woman who lived nearby walking their dog.
"Stop barking, Snoopy! Good morning, Store Manager … Ah! What's going on? What's going on? "
A figure as fast as a deer was originally just passing by the front of the shop. Seeing the situation at the entrance, it turned a corner and ran quickly towards the shop.
Zhang Zian looked up. It was Masanori Suzuhara, who was running in the morning.
She was wearing bright and beautiful sportswear, and the reflective strips on her sneakers were shining in the morning sun. She was carrying a small bag on her back, which contained a set of poop shoveling tools. Her beagle, Snoopy, was on a leash as usual.
Snoopy used to bark a lot, but after being trained by Masanori Suzuhara according to Zhang Zian's methods, it became quieter and no longer barked. But now, it couldn't stop barking because of the poodle.
Masanori Suzuhara was tall and had long legs. She quickly walked to the side and stopped. She bent down to look at the unconscious girl and stared at the device on her waist. She whispered in surprise, "Ah! Insulin pump? She's a diabetic? Sh * t! She has hypoglycemia! "
Zhang Zian listened with a dumbfounded expression. He didn't have diabetes, and his family didn't have a history of diabetes. His distant relatives or friends had diabetes, but he had never heard of this strange name.
However, he knew that Masanori Suzuhara studied medicine or pharmacy in Japan, and had personally participated in pharmacological experiments with beagles. If she could tell that the strange device was an insulin pump, it shouldn't be wrong.
"She's a customer who just came to the shop. What should we do if she suddenly becomes like this?" he asked anxiously.
"It's dangerous for a diabetic to have hypoglycemia. It's best to call an ambulance!" Masanori Suzuhara briefly checked her condition and opened her eyelids to take a look.
"I've already called an ambulance," he said. "Now we can only wait?"
Masanori Suzuhara thought for a moment and took out a piece of chocolate from her small bag. "Do you have warm water? I need to melt the candy and pour it into her mouth … It's best if we can get a spoon. "
Without Zhang Zian's instructions, Wang Qian quickly poured some hot water from Old Time Tea's thermos, mixed it with some cold water, and gave it to Masanori Suzuhara.
She broke the chocolate into pieces and put them into the cup, stirred it quickly with a spoon, and said, "I don't have diabetes, but I'm afraid of hypoglycemia when I run, so I always carry a piece of candy with me. I can't believe it came in handy today …"
Soon, the candy completely melted in the warm water.
Masanori Suzuhara held the female customer's head up, opened her mouth, and poured the sugar water into her mouth.
Lu Yi Yun used a tissue to wipe the sugar water from the corner of her mouth.
The effect of the sugar water was immediate. Less than a minute after she drank it, she slowly opened her eyes in a coma.
Everyone at the scene let out a sigh of relief.
