Chapter 224 Mr. Maotuan

Malulu threw the puppet lotus root and other activated plants caught this time into the desktop farm.

The total weight of the planting column increased from 0 to 324 kilograms.

Then he locked his view on the puppet lotus root, watching it step up its two long legs, hurried to a stream, and plunged into it.

Paddling its limbs and swimming downward, Malu's vision soon became turbid.

The puppet lotus root had already plunged into the mud. When the water surface became clear again, most of its body was buried in it, leaving only two legs swaying on the mud.

Malu switched his view to a swinging loofah, which had found a big tree at this time, wrapped its vines around one of the branches, and hung itself in the air, swinging like a swing.

And the other activated plants quickly found their own territory after moving to their new home.

Because of the upgraded traveler bracelet, Malu spent 3 hours longer than before to collect ingredients. When he came back, it was already past lunch time.

He originally planned not to open to the public today, but the notice posted two days ago triggered a strong protest.

The main reason is that the Universe Infinite Canteen now has a limited supply of all dishes every day, and people who go late have a high probability of not being able to eat.

In addition, after Malu opened the restaurant, he worked 6 days and rested one day, just like when he set up a stall to sell snacks before, which is one day less than other restaurants.

One less day is equivalent to cutting one-sixth of the supply, making it even more difficult for people who want to eat, so people have been complaining about this for the past two days.

In order to take care of the feelings of the majority of diners, especially those hardcore diners, Malu was finally forced to change his words and only canceled today's lunch. Dinner hours are open as usual, which can barely calm everyone's dissatisfaction.

Just when Malu was thinking about what menu to make for the next week, there was a knock on the door outside.

Malu quickly collected all the food on the ground into the collection bag, found a towel and covered the desktop farm, and then walked over to open the door.

There was a strange face outside the door.

It was a girl with a ponytail wearing myopic glasses. She looked about the same age as Malu and should have just started working.

"Sorry to bother you." The girl with a ponytail said with anxiety in her eyes, "Have you seen Mr. Maotuan?"

"Mr. Maotuan, what is that?"

The girl with a ponytail handed over an A4 paper, and Malu took it and found that it was a notice to find a cat.

Dear kind people:

I am a tenant of 802, Unit 1, Building 4, Jinxiu Mingjia Community. My cat Mr. Maotuan was accidentally lost on the evening of December 9. It is a male ragdoll cat, seal bicolor, with patterns on the left forearm.

Mr. Maotuan is very timid and afraid of all creatures larger than him. His stomach is not good and he cannot be fed cat food and canned food. I am very worried about him now.

If you have seen him, please contact me as soon as possible. I will give you a 200 yuan red envelope reward. If you can send Mr. Maotuan back, I will give you another 2,000 yuan reward.

Below is the photo of the ragdoll cat playing with Maotuan and the contact information of the girl with a single ponytail.

"Mr. Maotuan was lost last night. Have you seen him?" asked the girl with a single ponytail.

"No." Malu returned the A4 paper, "I haven't been out since yesterday afternoon."

The girl with a single ponytail was a little disappointed, but still thanked Malu, "Keep this paper. If you see Mr. Maotuan in the future, I hope you can contact me as soon as possible."

"Okay."

Malu didn't take this episode too seriously. He went back to bed to make up for two hours of sleep and went to the restaurant with Lao Wang.

When leaving the community, he met the girl with a single ponytail again. She was still looking for her ragdoll cat, and this time there was a man beside her to help her find it.

Malu recognized the man, who was also a tenant in the community. His name was Hu Weiqi and he worked in a real estate company.

Malu and Hu Weiqi greeted each other, but Hu Weiqi was now completely focused on the girl with a ponytail.

He had been busy around her and helped her find the property management to retrieve the surveillance footage from last night, and he didn't notice Lao Wang and Malu next to him.

Seeing this, Malu stopped bothering them and rode his tricycle straight to the restaurant.

He wrote the menu for the new week on the blackboard and opened the restaurant on time at 5pm.

He was busy until 8:29pm, when he sold the last dish.

After all the guests finished their meals, He Xiaoqian cleaned up again, picked up her backpack and prepared to go home after work.

At this time, she found another special guest outside the restaurant's door.

"What a cute kitten!"

The waitress opened the glass door of the restaurant, and the ragdoll cat outside the door looked into her eyes, and the pupils were as pure as sapphires.

He Xiaoqian squatted down and stroked the head of the ragdoll cat. She noticed that the latter's hair was very clean and its nails were carefully trimmed. It was obvious that it had been well taken care of on weekdays and was not a stray cat.

"Hey, are you lost? Where is your owner?" He Xiaoqian asked while stroking it.

However, the kitten could not speak, but continued to open its ignorant big eyes.

But it could be seen that it enjoyed He Xiaoqian's caress and then made a comfortable purring sound.

He Xiaoqian's heart suddenly melted, and she reached out to pick up the kitten in front of her, but was stopped by Ma Lu.

"Wait, I think I know who it belongs to." Malu put down the calculator and walked out from behind the front desk.

"Boss, do you know this cat?"

"Well, his name is Mr. Hairball. He was raised by the tenant above me. He ran away from home last night."

Although Ma Lu didn't bring the cat-hunting revelation, he had only seen it in the afternoon and was still somewhat impressed by the photo above.

Several important features match the Ragdoll cat in front of you.

But it's a bit strange. The Universe Infinite Canteen is not close to the community where Malu lives, and Malu doesn't know how the cat got here.

And it just happened to appear outside his restaurant, which felt a bit too coincidental.

He Xiaoqian also said, "What a coincidence." But she didn't think much about it, she was just happy for the lost ragdoll cat and her owner.

"Then boss, you can take it back and return it to its original owner!"

Malu was also reflecting on whether he was a little too cautious. This cat looked no different from an ordinary pet cat. The most important thing was that it was indeed very cute.

People are always subconsciously tolerant of cute things, and Malu is no exception.
