As soon as Xia Zhining arrived at Blackwater Pool, she sent Snowball Special Agents to infiltrate the area. The ropes of the bamboo raft were no match for the teeth of the weasel!

Snowball's little paws were still thrashing about in the water, like it had mini propellers attached. With a "whoosh," it darted out, leaving a trail of tiny splashes behind it. It swam towards Xia Zhining on the shore with a clear goal in mind, its little eyes full of smug satisfaction, as if it had accomplished its mission and kept its achievements hidden.

[When Snowball makes its move, who else can compete!]

At the same time, the auspicious creature in the sky moved!

The auspicious creature stopped circling, folded its wings, and swooped down straight down from mid-air like a long-awaited gray thunderbolt!

Two sharp claws covered in hard scales gripped the handle of the reagent box with a "snap" just as it was about to fall into the water.

With a sudden flap of its powerful wings, it stirred up a cloud of mud and water, forcefully lifting the heavy box off the water's surface!

The claws of the gyrfalcon are like pliers. When its toes grip an object, the tendons automatically lock, allowing it to maintain a firm grip without continuous force!

This conserves energy and allows for firm control of prey during flight, not to mention a stationary box.

Almost at the same moment, another gray figure appeared, Anle, with an even more cunning target!

It swept past the flank like lightning, its sharp beak like a black lightning bolt, precisely pecking at Professor Lin's arm, which he was waving in panic!

"Ugh!" Professor Lin felt a sharp pain in his wrist as the deadly remote control flew out of his hand, tracing an arc in the air.

With a nimble turn, Anle swiftly grabbed the remote control with its claws and then took flight.

"Help...help! It's so cold! There's something in the water!"

Professor Lin and his three accomplices were thrashing about in the chest-deep, icy mud, looking utterly pathetic.

Where was the frenzied energy from before? All that remained was the terror and bone-chilling cold of facing annihilation.

On the shore, Jixiang landed steadily next to Xia Zhining and gently placed the intact test kit down. The police bomb disposal experts rushed forward!

Anle flew back and placed the remote control in front of the police, [Hehe! I'm not inferior to human police officers, am I!]

Xia Zhining bent down and gently touched Xue Tuan's cold little head, then looked up and gave the two magnificent gyrfalcons a thumbs up: "We really can't do without you guys!"

Officer Xie and his team snapped out of their daze after the lightning-fast yet perfectly coordinated "animal attack."

"What are we waiting for?" Officer Xie waved his hand, suppressing a laugh. "Get them out of here! Don't let our great scientist really freeze into an icicle!"

Police inflatable rubber boats were quickly launched into the water, like fishermen pulling in their nets, and dragged Professor Lin and his three accomplices ashore one by one, who were soaking in the cold muddy water and whose lips had turned purple from the cold. In an instant, they were handcuffed and completely under control.

Professor Lin was covered in mud and water, his face ashen like a decaying leaf. As he was being led past Xia Zhining, he suddenly stopped, raised his bloodshot eyes, and stared intently at her.

"Heh...hehe..."

He let out a series of cold laughs, "Expert Xia, I never expected that despite all my scheming, I, Lin Maoyuan, would still be defeated by you in the end."

"This world is unfair. If only I had the talent to communicate with animals..."

Xia Zhining calmly met his resentful gaze, her voice clear and resonant across the swamp where the snow was gradually subsiding:

“You’re wrong, Professor Lin. Your defeat isn’t due to your inability to communicate with animals.”

“Animals are my comrades-in-arms, my friends, and never tools to be driven at will.”

"And you, taking advantage of their fear, going against their instincts, and forcing them to serve you, to steal and rob."

"This in itself is a gamble against the tide. How can those who go against the current resist the overwhelming force of the times?"
