Chapter 933: Unusual
“The chicken is dead, and the goose is alive… Why?” muttered Zhang San.
“Brother, could it be a zombified corpse?” Li Si asked softly as he looked at Zhang San.
“A zombie? What zombie? Have you watched too many movies? A zombie?” Zhang San rolled his eyes at Li Si.
“If it’s not a zombie, why is the goose still alive even though the chicken froze to death?” Li Si was puzzled.
Zhang San glared at Lin Yan. “The owner is soft-hearted. He spared the goose!”
Lin Yan smiled and shook her head.
“That’s right. I knew that wasn’t the case. How could the owner be soft-hearted…” Zhang San smiled awkwardly.
“Can the goose resist the cold?” Li Si was somewhat puzzled.
“Stop messing around,” Zhang San said impatiently.
Zhang San’s eyes lit up as he stared at Lin Yan. “I got it! The goose is an evolved being! It can’t freeze to death!”
“Senior Zhang San, are you sure?” asked Lin Yan.
“I’m certain!” Zhang San said confidently.
“You’re wrong. The goose isn’t an evolved being.” Lin Yan sighed in disappointment.
“What did you say? It’s not an evolved being? Then what’s the explanation?” Zhang San asked anxiously.
“It’s a penguin.” Lin Yan grinned.
“A penguin?”
Zhang San’s expression turned ugly. “Are you cheating? How did the goose you were talking about become a penguin?”
Lin Yan stared at Zhang San in confusion. “Senior Zhang San, aren’t penguins geese?”
“How can a penguin be a goose?” Zhang San shook his head repeatedly.
“Why would the character ‘penguin’ in Chinese have the character ‘goose’ in it if penguins weren’t geese?” Lin Yan grinned.
“That, that’s because…” Zhang San thought for a long time but could not come up with a reason. That’s right, why did ‘penguin’ have the character ‘goose’ in it in Chinese? Wasn’t this a trap set up for him? Why was it called that way? Why couldn’t it have the character ‘duck’ in it instead?
“Is white wine wine?” asked Lin Yan.
“Yes.” Zhang San’s expression became even uglier.
“Is beer wine? Is a cocktail wine?”
“Yes…” Zhang San replied.
“Then why aren’t penguins geese[1]?” asked Lin Yan.
“Hmph, it’s still wrong. Let me ask you something else. Where was the fridge the penguin was locked in?” Zhang San said.
“How about it was my fridge?” Lin Yan was puzzled.
“That’s not right. Penguins live at the South Pole. Why would a penguin be in your fridge?” Zhang San said.
Lin Yan was speechless…
Indeed, the logic of fools was very strange.
“I caught it,” replied Lin Yan.
“Why did you catch a penguin?”
“It suited my mood. I’m not only going to catch penguins. I’m also going to catch polar bears. Can’t I?” asked Lin Yan.
“That’s right, Big Brother. That’s her problem. She can catch whatever she wants,” said Li Si.
“Shut up!” Zhang San rolled his eyes at Li Si before turning to Lin Yan. “Penguins are huge. How did you put it in the fridge?”
“I have money. Can’t I order a custom-made fridge?” asked Lin Yan.
“How can you be so arrogant? Even if you have money… Do you dare ask me another question?” Zhang San said anxiously.
“Senior Zhang, shouldn’t you keep your promise?” Lin Yan grinned.
“Grandma!” Zhang San gritted his teeth.
“Good boy.” Lin Yan nodded. “Let me ask you something else. What does one plus one equal?”
“What does one plus one equal?” Zhang San was taken aback.
What kind of question was this? There was definitely a trap!
“Brother, one plus one equals two. Even a fool would know that!” Li Si added.
[1] All the previous alcoholic beverages have the same ‘wine’ character in Chinese, so Lin Yan is saying that as long as a term has a character in them, they can be generalized under that character. It’s clearly wrong, but the two guys are obviously too stupid to come up with a counter example.
