After dinner, Wan Xinyi was a little depressed. Wan Xinyi was horrified to find that the steak she had enjoyed the other day was most likely kangaroo meat.
Wan Xinyi blamed herself. Kangaroos were so cute and were the national treasures of Kangaroo Country. How could she eat kangaroos?
Susan did not know why Wan Xinyi was a little depressed. She cared about Wan Xinyi as a friend, so she did not chase after Xinyue Wan to the study immediately after dinner.
Wan Xinyi was sitting on the sofa, watching TV. Susan also sat on the sofa and leaned against Wan Xinyi. She asked softly, "Sister Xin Yi, why are you unhappy?"
"I … I feel bad. Kangaroos are so cute, but I actually ate kangaroos. "Wan Xinyi sounded very depressed.
Susan understood that Wan Xinyi must have liked kangaroos so much because she had not been in Kangaroo Country for long. However, this kangaroo was not a docile animal.
"But kangaroos are allowed to be killed by the government. They have been protecting kangaroos in the past. However, kangaroos give birth to too many babies and damage the environment, so some kangaroos have to be killed. "
"I see …"
Wan Xinyi was still a little unhappy. She had seen how cute kangaroos were on TV in the past. Now, she was like an executioner, an accomplice to eating kangaroos.
Susan continued, "Sister Xin Yi, don't be sad. At most, we won't eat kangaroos anymore. What do you think?"
"Okay." Wan Xinyi nodded.
Wan Qianqian cleaned up the kitchen and heard Wan Xinyi's words when she walked out of the kitchen. Wan Xinyi's current actions reminded Wan Qianqian of a movie, but she could not remember the name.
Anyway, there was a line called, "How can you eat rabbits? Rabbits are so cute."
This … Wan Xinyi is in the same situation now. Wan Qianqian shook her head. Next time, she would tell Wan Xinyi before she ate it. If she didn't eat it, she would never eat it. She couldn't let Wan Xinyi be unreasonable.
Wan Qianqian went to the study and told Gu Tanfeng about it.
"Xin Yi is too soft-hearted. That's why she ended up in such a situation."
Gu Tanfeng pinched his forehead and said to Wan Qianqian, "Alright, let me think of an idea."
The idea that Gu Tanfeng came up with was so overbearing that even Wan Qianqian was shocked. However, before Gu Tanfeng could carry out his plan, Wan Xinyi changed her mind.
That day, Gu Tanfeng had something to do, so he did not go to school to pick Xinyue Wan and Wan Xinyi up. Wan Qianqian remembered the time. When she saw that it was still early on the wall, she did not go to pick the two kids up immediately.
However, there was something going on at school that day, so they had a holiday an hour earlier. Most of the older children had gone home on their own. Children like Xinyue Wan and Wan Xinyi, who had just arrived, were waiting for their parents to pick them up at school.
Susan was familiar with Xinyue Wan and the others, so she followed them home. Wan Xinyi saw that more and more people were leaving and there were fewer and fewer people staying at school.
She was a little anxious. Thinking that the school was not far from home, she suggested to Xinyue Wan, "Brother, can we go home on our own? Look, they all go home on their own. "
Xinyue Wan looked at Susan beside her. She was two years younger than them and there was a rule that young children had to be picked up by their parents. However, it was not impossible.
"Okay, let's go home on our own."
The three of them held hands and went out of the school gate while the security guard at the gate was not paying attention. They ran far away, and the three of them laughed happily. Today's experience was really good.
The three of them ran for a long time, but they did not hear anyone chasing behind them, so they stopped and walked slowly.
Xinyue Wan held Wan Xinyi's hand, and Wan Xinyi held Susan's hand. Wan Xinyi sang a nursery rhyme with Susan as they walked. Just like that, they were not far from home and were about to reach the neighborhood. They saw a few kangaroos lying on the grass at the entrance of the neighborhood, basking in the sun.
These kangaroos were tall and muscular. Wan Xinyi looked at them and realized that these kangaroos looked different from what she had seen in the books.
She held Xinyue Wan's little hand tightly and wanted to hurry up.
However, for some reason, these kangaroos seemed to have seen something on them and approached the three of them.
Several kangaroos jumped close to the three of them, their tails supporting them strongly, and the muscles on their legs were faintly discernible. The kangaroos that stood up were taller than Wan Xinyi and Susan combined.
Wan Xinyi screamed in fear. Wan Xinyue shielded the two girls behind her, and before the kangaroos could get close enough, she pulled them and ran away.
However, Xinyue Wan couldn't run fast with the two people behind her. She stumbled with the two little girls. The kangaroos behind them might be bullying them because they were small, and they were not in a hurry at all.
It was really annoying that they were so leisurely. They teased Xinyue Wan and the others like little mice.
Xinyue Wan saw a few small paint buckets not far away, and she was a little happy. She said to Wan Xinyi and Susan, "Let's run there. There are big kangaroos there."
"Okay." Wan Xinyi and Susan also saw the paint buckets not far away. They had hope and ran faster.
When they ran to the paint buckets, Xinyue Wan let the two little girls hide behind her, and she threw things at the kangaroos alone. The paint buckets seemed to be the size of the paint buckets that were usually used to paint walls. It didn't take much effort for Xinyue Wan to pick up the paint buckets.
However, as soon as Xinyue Wan threw the paint buckets over, the kangaroo in the front steadily took the paint buckets, held them between its hands, and exerted force. The muscles on its arms were visible, and they were bigger than ordinary people's muscles.
Susan was sure that the kangaroo's muscles were more developed than her father's. The kangaroo only used a little force and the entire paint bucket was crushed. There was no pressure.
Then it easily threw the paint buckets away. The kangaroo seemed to have a mocking expression on its face as it looked at Xinyue Wan and the others. Xinyue Wan was also quite shocked. This kangaroo looked really cute, but it turned out to be so powerful.
Xinyue Wan protected the two girls behind her, but Xinyue Wan's small body couldn't protect the two girls at all.
Wan Xinyi also went forward and helped throw the paint buckets, but this group of kangaroos was like hooligans. They weren't afraid at all. Instead, they caught all the paint buckets and looked at the three children sarcastically, as if saying that these three people didn't know anything else besides this.
Xinyue Wan saw that the kangaroos were looking behind her. It was Susan. Xinyue Wan seemed to be attracted by Susan's schoolbag. She quickly said, "Susan, throw your schoolbag away."
Schoolbag? Susan looked behind her and said, "Okay." She took off her schoolbag with trembling hands and threw it out.
However, the group of kangaroos didn't shift their attention. They were still staring at Susan. Xinyue Wan protected Susan behind her. Seeing this situation, Wan Xinyi also tried to protect Susan. Susan was her good friend. She didn't want her to get hurt.
Seeing that the group of kangaroos didn't give up, the kangaroo in front made a sound that the three people couldn't understand. The three people who were close to them.
Wan Xinyi was so scared that her legs went soft. This group of kangaroos wasn't as cute as she thought. On the contrary, it was particularly scary.
Suddenly, there was a gunshot. The kangaroos were very sensitive to gunshots. This gunshot meant death. They quickly ran away in all directions. Xinyue Wan and the others were finally saved.
When the kangaroos ran away, Wan Xinyi suddenly sat on the grass. The eyes of the group of kangaroos were really scary. Wan Xinyi was scared.
Susan also sat on the ground, but she looked calmer than Wan Xinyi. When she first came to Kangaroo Country with her mother, she heard from her father that kangaroos had received a lot of protection in the past and had developed a bad temper. She didn't want to think that kangaroos were cute and should leave as soon as possible.
Since then, Susan had avoided kangaroos whenever she saw them. She didn't expect to meet one today.
"Are you three okay?"
Xinyue Wan turned around and saw an adult walking out of a small villa not far away. He was holding a gun in his hand. This was the person who had just saved them.
This adult's beard was white. He should be very old, but he looked very energetic. He walked over wearing a pair of riding boots.
Xinyue Wan said gratefully, "Thank you, uncle."
"You're welcome." The white-bearded man laughed heartily. Xinyue Wan felt close to him.
"My name is Sam. I'm from the Kangaroo Killing Team. Kangaroos are not easy to get along with. In the future, you three children must avoid kangaroos when you see them. "
Wan Xinyi nodded with a pale face. Susan was also scared and quickly nodded. Xinyue Wan said, "Uncle, thank you so much for today. Where do you live? We want to thank you. "
"You're welcome. It's our responsibility to protect the citizens. Unfortunately, kangaroos can only be killed in March every year. Otherwise, I would have killed all these kangaroos. I apologize to you. "
Wan Xinyi was shocked when she thought of that scene. She quickly said, "No, uncle, I'm scared." Susan also nodded with a pair of big pitiful eyes.
Sam saw the flower on Susan's head and said seriously, "Girl, you can't wear the flower on your head in front of kangaroos. That color will make kangaroos crazy."
Susan touched the flower on her head and took it off. This flower was given to her by her father. It was just an ordinary yellow flower. She put the flower in her bag and thanked him with a smile, "Thank you, uncle."
"It's okay. Where do you live? I can send you home. " Sam thought that the three children must be scared. He would not be at ease if he did not send them home.
Wan Xinyue thought it was reasonable. Both of her sisters were frightened, so she said, "Thank you, uncle."
"You're welcome."
Sam walked beside them and talked to them about Kangaroo Country. He gave them a lot of advice and said that they must stay away from kangaroos.
