Farming Druid - Chapter 105
Only Noblemtl
105. What are you saying?
What was meant to happen has come.
The tree thought so as it looked at the rice mill.
Looking at Jeongmiso, I thought that her love for her son was extreme.
But the direction was wrong.
‘I understand that you want to ignore the truth about your son, but that’s not right… ‘
Maybe it was because of what I heard from a tall and large man.
After she spoke to the animal hospital.
After closing the store, she was seen driving away with a man.
‘I guess Borga handled it well… … .’
After releasing the male student who was bitten by the snake, who was half-dead(?), as he had said.
We found evidence inside the house.
Evidence that Lee Ji-hak abused the puppy.
After that.
When the police came to investigate the scene.
The evidence of animal abuse would have been clearly visible.
‘Now, all we have to do is watch and see if they are punished within the bounds of the law.’
The tree, which had briefly looked at the animal hospital, returned home.
* * *
Let’s go home.
Five cat brothers ran out to the tree to greet them.
“You guys—Hyung, have you been waiting?”
“yes-.”
The cats nodded in response.
That sight was very cute to the tree’s eyes.
“Just wait. After Hyung-ah moves this, I’ll take care of you guys’ Nyam-nyam and Kkakka.”
Abel was already there, pulling his cart towards the tree.
After placing the cat food bag and Abel’s food bag on the cart.
Let’s take it.
Abel pushed her head from behind.
Since when did it start?
I realized that each and every one of these little things are truly precious.
“Hyung-hyung-are you making me some gae-dae-ju today?”
Season’s question for the youngest of the three-colored cats.
The tree looked so cute that I wanted to tease it.
“Well. I’m wondering whether I should make it today or tomorrow. Did you bring a lot of dogwoods?”
The rare male calico cat, Season, sat quietly, looked into the tree’s eyes, nodded, and answered.
“yes-.”
I felt like I was going to burst out laughing, but I tried to hold it back.
“Then we should make it today, at least for our season.”
“Yeah― Okay―”
All five brothers were wiggling their butts.
The tail was wagging.
Jiing— Jiiing—
“Yeah— why?”
-Are you busy?
“No—I’m going to make some dog food for the cats.”
-What? You’re pouring alcohol for a cat?
“No— I was trying to make a drink for the cat… … Ah— right, I was going to call you in the evening.”
-why?
“Do you remember the high school students we went to Dong-A Land with before?”
-Oh, I remember.
“Among them, a friend named Bora gave me a ticket. It’s called ‘Circus of the Moon’. Do you want to go together? With two high school students.”
– I called because of that too. That’s great. Our director of the hospital gave us a ticket.
“It’s a VIP seat.”
―I should tell the director to give me another friend. The VIP seats are nice. I can buy them something delicious.
“Or so. Aren’t you coming this time?”
-Why don’t you go? I’ll be at your house in 20 minutes.
“How did you know I went shopping?”
– Let’s go to the butcher shop in town instead. You said you took your grandmother there before? Let’s eat what you bought tomorrow morning.
“Come and talk.”
Let’s hang up the phone.
Abel started running somewhere at a fast pace.
“You really have good ears. When I see you running out even though it’s only 20 minutes away… … .”
The tree went to the faucet and its eyes widened slightly.
The basket was filled with a lot of dogwood branches.
Goruk- Goruk- Goruk- Goruk-
The cats working in the field couldn’t come near.
Just the smell of the wind made their eyes half-open.
“They said it was cat drugs… … All the cats got addicted to it… … .”
“Butler― can I just bite and lick just one? Oh, no?”
“Just give me one, just one.”
The field cats had already finished their work and were casting a spell in front of the tree.
“You guys, before you go into the house at night, you have to go to the hot spring and wash up?”
The cats began to panic.
“Ah, if I don’t wash… … .”
“I was going to make you a persimmon drink… … but it’s bitter―”
In the language of trees, similar to mumbling.
The purring sound from the cats’ throats disappeared.
“Butler, please give me a dogwood and I’ll wash it.”
“Really?”
Goruk- Goruk-
The cats began to purr in unison again.
“Yeah―. Here it is.”
The cats living in the house came rushing towards me.
The tree ran into the field, carrying a piece of broken maple tree in its mouth.
After washing the pieces of persimmon tree in running water.
After all the moisture had been removed from the tree, it was brought into the kitchen and all the branches were placed in a dryer to dry.
After that.
After boiling water in a 5-liter kettle.
I poured it directly into a glass bottle containing a persimmon tree.
Slurp slurp—
I hear the sound of water being poured.
As the scent of the persimmon slowly spread into the kitchen.
The five cat brothers started to make noise in the kitchen.
“You guys―. If you want to drink this, stay in the yard or go to the field.”
As soon as the tree’s words fell.
The cats ran into the field.
“I guess these guys really want to drink this damn liquor… … .”
To cool the tea made with perilla leaves.
I put it out of reach of cats.
As soon as I finished my work, I heard the sound of a car parked outside the front door.
“You’re here.”
Lesser-
The door opened and the person who came in was my friend Han-eum, wearing a T-shirt and cotton pants.
Next to it was a giant Abel, its tail wagging like a propeller.
“Are you here?”
“Huh? What are you making? What’s that smell?”
“I guess it smells like cats making tea.”
“Really? I saw that there was chaos in town when I came here. What happened?”
It was Haneum who saw the tree’s expression sink with the question.
“Why? It must have something to do with animals. I can see your expression sinking.”
“… Yeah, that’s right. Come in first.”
Haneum unpacked her luggage in the room she was staying in.
I could hear children outside.
“Brother—Brother—I heard some really surprising news.”
“Are you here?”
“Hello, sir―.”
Let Haneum unpack and come out.
The two high school students greeted Haneum happily.
““Doctor―. Hello.””
Han-eum felt good when she received greetings from both students.
Is it a feeling of children’s vibrant energy being transmitted?
Haneum looks at Bora and Saimdang.
“Ah— I’m thinking of going into town for dinner. Do you guys want to go with me?”
“Oh— really?”
The first to react to Haneum’s words was Hong Saimdang.
Bora smiled awkwardly and nodded, expressing her desire to join.
The tree frowned at Bora.
It was because I saw ‘sorry’ in her expression.
“Look―. I don’t know if you heard from Saimdang… … but did you know that you skipped work too often?”
“Huh? What?”
“I’m talking about taking care of house cats.”
“Oh, right. I didn’t tell you. I barely saw him at school today.”
Saimdang intervened and spoke. Bora asked back in a slightly bewildered voice.
“… Ar… Was it a byte?”
“Uh―. I’ll let it slide for you not to come out until now, but please look after the kids for an hour every day.”
The first thought that came to Bora’s mind when she heard the tree’s words was ‘thank you’.
The voice of the tree continued.
“Are you going to do it?”
“yes!”
“What about Saimdang?”
“I will do it too.”
“Okay, then we’ll get ready to go out, so you guys just sit here and wait.”
“What about part-time work?”
“Starting tomorrow. Today, the doctor said he’d buy me meat, so let’s go eat together.”
As soon as the words left his mouth.
Saimdang and Bora’s expressions brightened.
Haneum snickered at the sight.
“Just wait a moment. I’m not done yet.”
“yes-!”
The tree went into the kitchen and checked if the persimmon tea had cooled down a bit.
I put the lid on.
Thump- thump-
It seems like the temperature is a bit too much to put in the refrigerator.
The tree placed the persimmon tea in a row on the counter.
‘I’ll boil the carrots and eggs for you tomorrow… … .’
When the tree looks around and examines its surroundings.
Tiring―
[Guardian―. A vehicle is entering within a 5km radius of your house.]
At Geo’s words, the tree quietly called out to Abel.
“I think someone other than Abel is coming. Can you tell me who it is?”
Wong-
Abel answered in a small voice and ran out the front door.
“Why is he running away?”
To Haneum’s question, the tree just shrugged its shoulders and pretended not to know.
If Geo had told me in his head, I would have thought that he might be the one looking for his grandmother.
Jjjajajak―
After the car tires made a crunching sound outside the gate.
I heard the car come to a complete stop.
“What… you’re raising a dog that’s bigger than a bull without even putting a muzzle on it.”
The tree went out the front door at the sound of someone’s voice.
Let’s look at the shape of the tree.
One of the two men in the black sedan greeted me briefly and asked me a question.
“Is this the home of Lady Isekai?”
They questioned the tree’s appearance a little cautiously.
“…That’s true, but Grandma isn’t here right now.”
“Huh? You’re not here?”
At the tree’s words, they had a look of defeat on their faces.
“Could you tell me when this lady will be arriving?”
They looked at the tree politely and asked.
“I don’t know. My grandmother said she was going on a trip and then left.”
“Ah―. This is… … .”
“By the way, where did you come from and why are you looking for my grandmother?”
One of them held out his business card to the tree.
The tree, who received a business card with the government logo on it, seemed to know why he was looking for his grandmother.
“Is there any way I can contact this lady?”
In response to their questions, the tree simply shrugged its shoulders and opened its mouth.
“You left your cell phone behind. I have no way of contacting you.”
Phew―
One of them ran his hand through his bangs as if he was frustrated, looked up at the sky and sighed.
“When Grandma comes, I’ll tell her you’ve been there.”
“Excuse me― by any chance… … .”
“Yes? Do you know anything about what your grandmother used to do?”
The tree shook its head.
My grandmother once told me a story.
After he went over there.
He had asked us to remain ‘unaware’ when government officials appeared.
“I don’t really know what you do.”
“I see. I understand. When you contact your grandmother, please give her the business card and this too.”
It was a white, luxurious envelope with a seal and the government logo on it.
The tree said, “I understand. Let’s take the envelope.”
The two men rode away in the sedan again.
The tree called out to Geo, looking down at the white envelope in his hand.
‘Geo – can you tell what is written on this envelope?’
[Please wait a moment. We are checking.]
The tree went into the house and briefly watched Han-eum and the children talking among themselves.
“Where are you from?”
A question from Haneum.
“Ah— the people who came to visit grandma—. When I told them she wasn’t home, they asked me to give them something and left.”
“Really? Then let’s go.”
“Uh—I’ll just put on some clothes and come out.”
“I’ll keep the engine running.”
“uh-.”
The tree went into Grandma’s room and put the envelope on the nightstand next to the bed.
Tiring―
[Search completed.]
Geo’s voice rang in my head.
The tree wondered what the government had sent to the grandmother.
‘What are you saying?’
