After all, many scientists have eccentric personalities.
With professors from West East Medical University overseeing things, and the laboratory building looking very professional, it shouldn't be some kind of scam... right?
The high school students who came to the backyard immediately saw a row of cages of different sizes.
To be precise, it's a cage that houses different animals.
The smallest cage contains a few white mice, while the slightly larger ones contain rabbits.
There are two cats and two dogs in the large cage.
"Wow!" Miyuki, who has no resistance to fluffy things, immediately cupped her face and her eyes lit up.
Riko Saki looked dejected, which contrasted sharply with Shiho Miyano's icy expression.
Two boys stood to the side, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Meixue suddenly felt out of place with these people because she was too normal.
“Ahem,” Narita cleared his throat, “your job is to raise these small animals.”
"Nishimura will send you the precautions and daily schedule later. Be sure to follow the instructions strictly, otherwise the experiment will fail."
"The experiment will last for one week, and the reward is 100,000 yuan, which will be settled with everyone after the experiment is completed."
"Wow! 100,000!" This time it was Kindaichi's turn to exclaim in amazement, his eyes turning into golden "$" symbols.
Miyuki could only sigh in exasperation at this naive and unsophisticated behavior, and covered her face with her hands.
And the symbol for the Japanese yen should be ¥, you uncultured hajime-chan! ...
“Each of you choose an animal to raise, then come here to get your forms.” Nishimura didn’t waste any words and just stood to the side.
The two girls, Riko and Miyuki, immediately exchanged a glance.
"Uh, you, um, you choose first, I'm fine." Shikiriko's voice always sounded a little listless.
"Huh? You don't like small animals?"
“I’m just afraid of trouble…” Sigiriko glanced at the cats and dogs over there, then sighed.
She's the type of person who stays at home; rather than being into anime and manga, she's more of a shut-in.
I initially signed up as a volunteer for the experiment because it didn't involve interacting with people; I only needed to stay in a room for three days.
I didn't expect that I wouldn't be able to participate in that experiment. When I received the invitation to the current experiment, I asked carefully and found that it still doesn't require me to talk to anyone.
But raising cats and dogs is just as troublesome!
Thinking this, Sakiriko shook her head and simply walked towards the cage of the white mice.
"Huh?" Miyuki was a little stunned for a moment.
This girl looks so quiet and gentle, how come she likes mice?
Even if you know they're lab rats, they're still rats!
"Heh, heh..." Miyuki gave a dry laugh, deciding to stop dwelling on this incomprehensible problem.
"Then, can I keep a baby rabbit?"
Just as she reached the rabbit's cage, she turned back to look at Shiho Miyano, as if she had just realized something.
Miyano also seems to be the type who dislikes trouble, so she might think that the rabbit would be easier to deal with.
However, Shiho Miyano shook her head as she looked at her.
"No, I don't care."
After saying this, a smile appeared on that usually indifferent face, the first one they had shown since they met.
"Just choose the one you like."
"Yes! Thank you, senior!" Miyuki replied loudly, turning around to pick up the cage containing the rabbits.
"Senior... ah?..."
For some reason, the way Miyuki was called made Shiho Miyano's smile deepen.
Then she turned around and looked at the two boys standing behind her, acting very gentlemanly.
"Since you're all seniors, I'll let you choose first."
"No need!" Kindaichi patted his chest and said, "Don't you girls all like cats?"
"With two dogs, it's not easy for you to walk them all by yourself. Let the two of us take care of them!"
Shiho Miyano did not object further, and walked straight to the cat cage, unlocking the door and letting both cats climb up her arm and onto her shoulder.
Seeing this, Kindaichi quickly opened the cage door and let the two dogs out.
One of the larger ones is a Golden Retriever, and the other is an Akita Inu.
"Actually, dogs are cute too!" Kindaichi said, skillfully stroking the dog's head.
Suddenly, the two seemingly friendly dogs widened their eyes, bared their teeth, and made threatening growling noises in their throats.
"Huh?"
Kindaichi was startled and turned around to find Mitsuki Nanami standing nervously behind him, not daring to take a step forward.
The two dogs were completely unconcerned about Kindaichi's approach, but they showed hostility towards the boy.
"What exactly is going on..." Kindaichi struggled to hold onto the dog leash, trying to stop them from attacking Mitsuki Nanami, when his eyes lit up.
"Hey, you just don't get along with dogs, do you?"
For dog lovers, there are indeed some people in this world who are born unpopular with dogs, and will be rejected by dogs even without any hostility.
It seems that those born in the seventh month of the fourth lunar month have this kind of constitution.
Mitsuki, having been given this definition, gave a wry smile.
"Maybe... If there are other animals, like birds or something, I might give it a try."
“My family used to keep owls.”
"I see!" Kaneda scratched his head and turned to Narita and Nishimura, about to ask a question, when a cold voice came from the side.
"The ultimate goal of animal testing for drugs is to prepare them for human use, so the experimental animals selected must be at least mammals."
With two cats perched on her shoulders, Shiho Miyano, like the cats, exudes a queen-like, arrogant demeanor.
