In 3013, the Earth's climate had changed drastically compared to a thousand years ago. The continental plates were unrecognizable, and the oceans had covered the land. The polar ice caps had reformed, and the four seasons were no longer distinct. There were 7 and a half months of cold weather each year, with February being extremely frigid. Even the best hunters would stay at home throughout the entire month of February. As a result, the New Year celebrations were held in this month. Nature's arrangements were always unexpected, and a bit of warm weather was added to the second half of January between the two extreme cold spells. The animals naturally had high body temperatures and didn't enjoy the 30-degree heat, but this time, they were willing to accompany Happiness at all costs.
The radiant sunlight spread across the land, and the lush green grass sprouted from the melting white snow. Through the window, one could see the once frozen lake shimmering with ripples. Happiness was so excited today that she didn't even want to write. Early in the morning, she squatted by the window, waiting for Alexander and the others to take her out. They had planned to go fishing and have a barbecue campfire!
From waiting since morning until noon, and from noon until the setting sun, until the surroundings became dim and yellow, Happiness felt a bit furious. Not to mention fishing, Alexander hasn't even come to District 2 yet. Abyssyus and Damian are here, but they haven't even mentioned taking her out to play!
Damn it! What's the point of these days without freedom? Is Happiness asking for too much? All she wants is to occasionally go out and have some fun. Seeing how good the weather is today, with the lake already thawed, is Alexander just going to abandon the camping trip he promised? He told her to rest well yesterday and keep her energy up for today! Happiness almost bit off a piece of the window frame in frustration. It's just so lamentable.
As the last ray of sunlight gradually disappeared, the sky was filled with twinkling stars. Happiness was feeling restless and annoyed, but this beautiful starry sky instantly swept away her unhappiness, leaving only awe in her heart. What a beautiful sight... The stars above formed a magnificent diamond necklace, and the fine diamond dust was sprinkled around the starry river by the hand of God. The Milky Way was so close to the Earth, making Happiness feel like she could reach out and touch the stars! After a thousand years of destruction by humanity and the pollution that covered the starry sky with toxic gases, it had finally returned to its original state!
The forest around District 2 was illuminated by the clear and gentle starlight. From a distance, the shimmering lake and green shore presented a mysterious shade of blue, even more breathtaking than during the day. Happiness covered her mouth and suddenly had the urge to scream, not only to marvel at this rare beauty but also to marvel at how the Earth, a thousand years later, had completely abandoned the human race. Even these evolved beasts knew how to protect the environment. Why did the sentient beings of humanity, the so-called masters of all things, choose a path of self-destruction? Hmm... It seems like a little inspiration has come...
Happiness didn't feel melancholic for long when Eliot knocked on her door and brought her a surprise.
"Happiness, get ready. We're going to the lakeside tonight." Eliot smiled and handed Happiness a few pieces of clothing, saying, "It's not appropriate for you to wear a dress outside, so I made you a set of men's clothing. Try it on, see if it fits."
"Now, now?!" Happiness excitedly took the clothes with both hands and looked up, only to see Alexander and Ben smiling as they entered the room.
"Alexander, you finally came? I thought you forgot!" Happiness playfully complained with a smile.
"Forget? How could I forget? We need to be safe when going out at night. Hurry up and change clothes." Alexander said. Tonight, he was wearing the same sharp black uniform that Happiness had seen before. The dark iron buttons shone slightly. Maybe because it was hot, he rolled up his sleeves and loosened his collar, revealing his strong, bronzed chest and tight, powerful legs.
Happiness was a bit stunned. If this high-quality handsome man had been in her previous life, where would she have stood a chance? Although this handsome man could be very lewd and vulgar at times, this big dog belonged to her alone, always loyal to her. Even if he was a bit perverted, it was within an acceptable range. With excitement, Happiness pounced into Alexander's arms, and the sweet and warm breath made Alexander momentarily stunned. The little creature in his arms rubbed against his face and praised, "Alexander you look so good." This little girl quickly forgot the pain and had already forgotten the times she wanted to bite off Alexander's fingers.
"Cough, cough!" Alexander awkwardly cleared his throat and put his clenched fist to his lips, his face already blushing suspiciously. Even when facing Happiness naked, this poor beast wouldn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed. But unexpectedly, being praised and spoiled by her like this, he couldn't control his emotions and blushed like this.
Happiness secretly chuckled when she saw Alexander's blushing face. He turned around and picked up the clothes, one by one, and couldn't help but think that Eliot was really skilled. Whether it's men's clothing or women's clothing, they both fit her so well! This is a set of black uniforms that have been reduced in size by N times, just like the ones they wear. There is even a hat with a similar beret shape that she can tuck her hair into.
Happiness quickly tied her hair into two braids and tucked them into the hat. She straightened the uniform and looked at herself in the bathroom mirror. She felt a bit embarrassed and shyly opened the bathroom door, standing in front of the three beasts.
Happiness, dressed as a man, was still full of makeup. Her two chubby bunnies were stuffed into the clothes, and her round little butt was cute. Her waist was slender, and a few strands of hair hung down from the hat, falling on her fair neck. Happiness felt uneasy and said, "Is it weird?"
"No, it looks great!" Ben firmly said, covering his nose and desperately inhaling, saying, "Why do I feel that Happiness looks even better in this outfit than usual?"
"From a psychological perspective, when we see Happiness wearing the clothes we are used to, it will cause varying degrees of visual impact on us, and then create an illusion that she is being embraced by us. We will want to take off layer by layer the hunting uniforms that represent killing and power on her body, and further explore her delicate body," Eliot said seriously.
"It feels like that..." Ben nodded.
"According to ancient texts, Happiness's current behavior is called uniform temptation," Eliot said seriously.
Happiness could now effortlessly understand their conversation. She grabbed the wall with a black line on her head. Could they please stop associating everything she does with that! She would really feel embarrassed!
Alexander frowned and loosened the tight buttons on Happiness's body, so her curves weren't so obvious. Although it made people imagine even more, at least it didn't make people want her at first sight.
Anyway, a group of beasts accompanied a little animal, and finally they left the house bustlingly. Happiness had a feeling of going to the night market with her classmates. She insisted on carrying the fishing rod that Alexander made for her. It was made of some kind of metal and was lightweight and small. It almost felt weightless on her shoulder.
As soon as she stepped out of the hospital gate, the long-lost fresh air with the moist fragrance of grass hit Happiness's face. She blinked her eyes to hold back the tears and even prisoners could go out for a walk every day, while she had never even set foot outside the courtyard.
Stepping on the grass, following the small path created by Alexander, Happiness walked forward happily. She greedily looked at the trees around her. With the starlight as the lamp, she didn't even need a flashlight.
"H-h-h-happiness, you're just right." Andy approached eagerly and said, "I-I-I-I want to hug you."
"No!" Happiness decisively shook her head and smiled at Andy, "I can walk by myself. My legs don't hurt at all."
"This path is not long and flat. Let her walk by herself," Alexander didn't realize that his eyes were full of doting as he looked at Happiness, "She rarely gets to go out and play."
"In the past half month, we have often taken her out to play. I'm more worried about the extreme cold in February. I wonder if the heater is working," Damian said.
"There's no other choice. We can only take turns using body heat to keep her warm when the time comes," Abyssyus said with a hint of regret.
Eugene smirked. He had clearly obtained a batch of high-quality down and fine cotton for Eliot. Eliot was probably already making winter clothes for Happiness. These beasts seemed to be looking forward to her staying in bed for twenty-four hours. Well, he admitted, he was looking forward to it too!
"I walked alone on the small path in the countryside, bringing pastries for grandma to taste, yay!" Happiness happily hummed a very fitting song. Indeed, she was much cooler than Little Red Riding Hood. Not only did she have a wolf by her side, but also a dog and a leopard! It's a whole animal world.
The crisp and sweet voice echoed on the path. The other animals didn't understand what Happiness was singing, but her behavior was inappropriate. If other animals heard her voice, it would be a big problem... However, relying on the large number of animals, Alexander and the others didn't stop Happiness from singing. Instead, they all listened carefully to this rare melodious sound.
After walking for about twenty minutes, Happiness saw the big tent on the grass by the lake, as well as the large barbecue grill outside the tent. The neatly stacked logs were used as fuel for the bonfire. Lus stood outside the tent waving at them. Just as he did so, a fish took the bait. With a flick of his hand, a large fish was pulled out of the water, leaving a shiny trail as it fell into the bucket.
Happiness howled and ran over. This vacation was rare, and she was determined to enjoy it!
Eugene and Abyssyus followed along. The two animals earnestly taught Happiness how to bait the fishing hook. Alexander and Ben unpacked bags of meat and snacks for the barbecue. They brought over hundreds of pounds of marinated meat. Damian took out a lighter and ignited the bonfire under the grill using dry straw. Soon, the lakeside grassland became even livelier and brighter with the glow of the fire. Eliot and Andy set up a large table for outdoor use, but where was Lionel? He casually found a place to sit down, staring at his computer without moving. He's really funny. It's rare to come out and play, but he still brings his computer. It's better for him to stay at home and guard the door!"
