Chapter 269 Elixir of Life
Even as he thought this, a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on Cao Fogong's forehead.
"No need, I can go there by myself. Mr. Chen will help me put my bag on the sightseeing bus." Lin Ting refused Cao Fogong's kindness.
Before she left, Lin Ting suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of Cao Fogong. "Mr. Cao, are you hot? Why are you sweating so much?"
"Yes, this red panda park has air conditioning. Why are you sweating so much? Are you weak?" Wu Qi couldn't help but laugh.
Cao Fogong wiped his head and found beads of sweat on his forehead. "I am afraid of heat. I will sweat if it is a little hot. It was too hot just now, so I kept sweating."
This explanation is worse than no explanation. It is obvious that the little golden python is feeling guilty.
Lin Ting ignored him and continued walking towards the sightseeing bus outside.
She took out her mobile phone and scanned the QR code of the sightseeing bus, letting the little golden python climb onto the bus by clinging to her arm.
After her car left, Cao Fogong looked at Chen Sheng and said, "You seem to be more familiar with Miss Lin. Do you know who Miss Lin is? I always feel that Miss Lin is not simple."
"You don't know, yet you're still mocking Miss Lin. Miss Lin is the director's sister and the daughter of the Lin Group. She didn't want to rely on her family, so she opened her own pet hospital. I heard that Miss Lin and the director's parents are not simple people, but I only heard that. I don't know what they do specifically."
"What? Why didn't you tell me earlier that Miss Lin was the director's sister? If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have dared to question Miss Lin. What if Miss Lin went to the director and said something bad about me?" Cao Fogong glared at Chen Sheng hatefully.
"Ms. Lin wants to keep a low profile. Even if I told you, you might not believe me. Miss Lin is not that kind of person. She wouldn't casually say bad things about others behind their backs, unless there's something wrong with that person."
Wu Qi, watching the excitement from the sidelines, said, "I usually tell you to keep a low profile, but you just can't keep a low profile. Sooner or later, you're going to get into trouble."
"I'm leaving first. There's still a lot of things to do at the crocodile park."
"I have to go eat first too. I've been busy all afternoon and haven't had time to eat."
Chen Sheng and Wu Qi each took a sightseeing bus and left.
Only Cao Fogong was left standing there with a grim look on his face.
Lin Ting had sent a message to Lin Jing in advance, and when she came over, Lin Jing happened to be waiting in the office.
Seeing her coming, Assistant Wu brought her a cup of fruit tea and a box lunch.
When Assistant Wu noticed the golden python coiled on Lin Ting's arm, he quickly put down the lunch box, took two steps back, and kept a safe distance from Lin Ting, with an expression of forcing himself to overcome fear on his face.
"Miss Lin is busy looking for the little golden python and probably hasn't had time to eat yet. These meals are from the cafeteria. Miss Lin, please eat first."
I didn't feel it when I was busy, but now I feel hungry.
She nodded at the golden python on her arm and said, "Can you please go down for a while? I need to eat something."
Although the golden python was born not long ago, it has python genes and is about the same size as a cobra. It is really tiring to coil around the arm for too long.
'The snake didn't believe them. The snake only believed its sister.'
Lin Ting had an indescribable expression.
Thinking of what Cao Fogong had done, it was understandable that the Golden Python didn't trust humans. Lin Ting didn't continue to let the little snake come down. Instead, he touched the little snake's head and said, "Then don't come down."
After finishing his work, Lin Jing strode forward, helped her open the lunch box lid, and opened the disposable spoon and placed it in her hand. "You sent me a message saying that there was something urgent. What was it?"
Lin Ting had just stuffed a spoonful of rice into his mouth when he mumbled, "Brother, do you know why the golden python hid from the python farm staff and secretly gave birth to a little golden python?"
"Ms. Lin, why is this happening?" Assistant Wu asked curiously.
Just because Assistant Wu reacts slowly doesn’t mean Lin Jing is also slow to react.
Lin Jing's expression was grim as he glanced at Lin Ting's arm. "Could it be that the staff of the Python Park had violated their duty and harmed those two golden pythons?"
Although it is difficult for animals to establish any special emotional connection with humans, most animals raised in captivity will develop some different emotions with their keepers. They will not be dependent on each other, but there will still be at least a minimum of trust.
These two golden pythons not only do not trust the staff, but are even on guard against them, which is enough to show that they are not good to the golden pythons on a daily basis.
Lin Ting had just finished swallowing his food when he took a sip of the water beside him. "It's more than just bad. The administrator at the python park will sneak back into the park after the other staff finish their night shifts, anesthetize the two pythons, and steal their blood and scales."
Upon hearing this, Assistant Wu asked in confusion, "What is he going to do with all this?"
"According to the little golden python, Cao stole the golden python's blood to sell it to a laboratory for research. He was specifically researching elixirs of immortality to sell to wealthy individuals and businessmen."
"Rich businessmen are afraid of death. If we can research and sell it under the name of delaying aging, it will be very attractive. This is a very profitable business. Big brother, I will not only tell you about this, but also inform Si Chen."
"This isn't just about stealing the golden python's blood; there could be other illegal activities hidden behind it. There's no such thing as an elixir of life in this world; it's just a fantasy of the rich who don't want to die."
"Some businessmen will do anything to make money from the rich. I'm afraid that in order to research the elixir of life, they will not only harm these small animals, but may also do other things. Brother, since we have already called the police, why not lure the snake out of its hole." Lin Ting looked at Lin Jing with sparkling eyes.
His sister has always been full of ideas since she was young.
He has become much calmer since the accident, but the sense of justice in his heart is still there.
Even if he doesn't cooperate, this damn girl will do whatever she wants to do once she makes up her mind.
If you can't stop it, you might as well join in. "How do you want to lure the snake out of its hole?"
"It's simple. Pretend nothing happened and let Cao buy and sell snake blood again. This will not only catch the perpetrator, but also lead to Cao's downstream dealer, allowing the police to continue their investigation along that dealer's path. As for you, you can quietly investigate the evidence of Cao's previous snake blood sales, but be sure not to alert the perpetrator."
"That's feasible." Lin Jing nodded in agreement. He had been following the police around lately and his brain had become smarter. He knew not to act impulsively and put himself in danger.
Assistant Wu quickly raised the question, "What if he's afraid to continue doing this?"
"It's very simple. Find a way to keep him from noticing. Assistant Wu, go arrange for the hospital staff to tell them that I went to check on the little golden python. Send someone to return it later. Criticize him for his negligence and make him review his mistakes. Then, demote him and reduce his salary. He definitely won't notice.
This guy is used to making quick money. If he gets a pay cut and a demotion, his life will be even more difficult. He wants to make some quick money, and selling python blood is the fastest way to make money. He will definitely seize the opportunity. There is no fear that he will not do it.
