After releasing the little sparrow, Ren felt an emptiness in his heart.

"Ren, would you like a cup of milk tea?" Sakura looked at him, pointed her finger, and said.

"Alright."

Ren regained his senses, smiled, nodded, and said.

He left the cage in the trash can beside him. After all, it was no longer of any use to him.

The two began to chat as they walked.

"B Station is on the right track. Sakura, you might consider making clients and mobile terminals," Ren said with a smile.

"We are considering making the computer client. A senior also talked about this during the meeting," Sakura nodded and said. "As for the mobile terminal... my idea is to wait until the computer client is ready before starting the mobile terminal."

"Yes, there's no rush," Ren said. "The most important thing is the website's content. I think... the current video types are quite scarce. You can cultivate some UP masters yourself."

"Cultivate some UP masters myself? In fact, we can post videos with the official account as before," said Sakura.

The two walked slowly to a nearby milk tea shop. Ren ordered a cup of pure milk tea, while Sakura preferred fruit tea.

After ordering their own milk tea, they continued to sit in the milk tea shop and chat.

"The official account can promote animation and high-quality works on the site, but since you are an official account," Ren said, taking a sip of milk tea, "you can't make more subjective videos."

"More subjective videos?" Sakura asked with curiosity.

"It means there's a very obvious personal preference for some works," Ren said. "Like new anime ratings, new anime recommendations, or complaints about some anime with outrageous plots and poor production, these are things the official account can't personally produce."

"My idea is..." he cleared his throat. "You officials can't personally participate in these kinds of new anime rating, recommendation, and complaint videos. But you can take the initiative and recruit some UP hosts to produce these kinds of videos."

"This type of video not only provides emotional value to viewers with similar feelings, but also allows those looking for anime to have some advance preparation."

"But, since it's too subjective, you officials can't personally participate, not even openly promote this type of video."

This is also a type of video that was popular on the bullet-comment website in his previous life, and which also made many major UP hosts popular.

And this type of video mainly focuses on emotion and online word-of-mouth.

If the UP host mentions works that the audience also likes and praises them with all sorts of heart-wrenching expressions, the audience will also feel very happy that the UP host also appreciates and praises their favorite works.

If the UP host complains about a particular work, everyone will be happy if they think the complaints are on point.

Furthermore, this type of video has another advantage: the UP host uses themselves to test the poison and prevent those low-quality works from reaching the audience who haven't yet fallen into the trap.

Even later, everyone likes the UP host to speak ill of the creative team of those low-quality works.

Sakura listened to what Ren said and suddenly understood, "Okay, I get it."

"In fact, this type of video is not limited to animation series; movies, TV series, novels, manga, etc. Everyone can make this type of video," Ren continued.

"Mmm..."

Sakura listened to Ren's words and silently stored them away.

...

Sakura left.

She is different from Ren now. Ren has always had more freedom.

Especially after recruiting three assistants like Yuka, he only has to take care of the plot and character development.

He doesn't need to do any other drafts.

Sakura obviously has a lot to do at the beginning of B Station.

So she didn't seek out Ren as often as before, but Ren could go to the B Station studio to find her.

Sakura is very busy now, and perhaps she'll have some free time after hiring more employees.

So she went straight back to the studio, while Ren went to the market to buy vegetables alone and then returned home.

"I don't know what happened to the sparrow..." he said with a sigh.

Ren was still missing the sparrow. He passed by the place where they had released it.

But at that moment, suddenly...

There was a small wild cat under the tree, chewing on something.

It was... a small sparrow.

Ren was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the little sparrow's left wing with some thin feathers...

It was the little sparrow he had just released!

"Don't bite it!"

Ren stepped forward and said to the wild cat.

The orange cat saw him approaching and was instantly on alert. Even the little sparrow in its mouth seemed to have lost its scent, and it kept hissing at Ren.

But, obviously, it was difficult to let it release the prey it had finally caught.

Ren had to take out a piece of chicken from the vegetables bought at the market and gestured to the wild cat, "How about I trade you for it?".

Then he threw it directly to the other side.

Obviously, the fresh and delicious piece of chicken attracted the wild cat more than the sparrow.

The big orange cat released the little sparrow and pounced on the chicken.

At that moment, Ren hurried to pick it up.

But... the little sparrow was bitten into a bloody mess, and there was no trace of life left.

"How could this happen...?"

Ren felt very sad.

After all, he still had feelings for it from a long time ago.

He finally nursed it back to health from its injuries and then let it fly.

Unexpectedly, the little sparrow died.

This saddened Ren greatly.

"Then... may you rest in peace."

When Ren was about to dig a hole on the spot to bury the sparrow, he found that the orange cat that had gnawed on the chicken was staring at him.

"No..."

He immediately understood that even if they buried the little sparrow, it would be dug up and eaten by wild cats.

"If you have to be eaten in the end..." Ren held the little sparrow in front of him with eyes full of sadness. "Then, why don't I eat you? That way... it's as if you're still alive in my body."

He picked up the sparrow's body and planned to take it home to cook it well.

That way... the sparrow can rest in peace...
