Xia Chujian took the menu, pretended to flip through it a few times, and then asked, "Ms. Ning, you said they got a batch of fresh wild rhinoceros pork. Where did they get it from?"
"I heard that there hasn't been any fresh wild rhino pork in Mulan City for a long time..."
Ning Sa wasn't very clear either, so he just said, "I don't know exactly where it comes from. But they said they have it, so I'll eat it. Chu Jian, do you like wild rhino pork too?"
Xia Chujian said: "I had it with friends last year. It was delicious and I still remember it."
Of course she didn't tell the truth, so she just "made friends out of nothing".
Ning Sa didn't doubt it. She knew that Xia Yuanfang was a very capable person and must have a wide network of contacts.
Xia Chujian is Xia Yuanfang's only niece. What's wrong with eating wild rhinoceros pork?
While Xia Chujian and Ning Sa were chatting, Xia Yuanfang had already finished examining A Zheng, gave him an injection on time, and then drew a tube of blood. He said he would go back for a blood test to see the results.
Ning Sa was used to seeing this and didn't care.
A Zheng frowned, looking unhappy.
But when he turned around and looked at Xia Chujian, he couldn't help but reveal a "toothless smile" and yelled at her.
Xia Chujian took him over with a smile and babbled to him in baby language.
As they were talking, the restaurant waiters started serving the dishes.
Each one is an ivory-white porcelain plate with a gold rim, in various shapes, and arranged in an irregular yet harmonious manner according to the different dishes they hold.
The waiter first brought four cold dishes, followed by four hot dishes.
The presentation of the cold dishes is like a work of art.
Ning Sa introduced them: "This dish is called Peacock Spreading its Tail. These slices of meat are said to be peacock meat."
Xia Chujian: “…”
"This dish is called Bullring, which means one-horned beef."
"This is coral fern. Actually, it's not coral, but fern that looks like coral."
Xia Chujian: “…”
This dish reminded her of the mutated marine plants on Morisawa Star, and she felt a little weird.
The rest of the dishes were just average. Xia Chujian tasted each of them, but she didn't even touch the plate of coral fern.
Xia Yuanfang ate quite a bit and even drank a bowl of soup at the end.
Ning Sa noticed that Xia Chujian didn't eat much, so he hurriedly said, "Is it not to your liking? I see you ate the most of this stir-fried wild rhinoceros pork with chili peppers. Do you want another plate?"
Xia Chujian had already figured out that the so-called "fresh" wild rhinoceros pork was not fresh at all, but was thawed after being frozen.
Her tongue was naturally sensitive, and she had followed the team into the Monster Forest and eaten wild rhino pork that was truly freshly killed and cooked, so she knew very well what truly fresh wild rhino pork tasted like.
But she wouldn't spoil Ning Sa's fun.
Ning Sa was genuinely happy for her and specially invited her and her aunt to dinner.
Xia Chujian smiled and said, "No, it's quite delicious. Look at this plate of stir-fried wild rhinoceros pork with small peppers. I almost ate it all. You can tell how much I love it."
"I really can't eat any more. If I eat any more, I'll have to run 2,000 meters tonight!"
Ning Sa stopped trying to persuade her and said with a smile, "As long as you like it, summer vacation is only a few days away. You'll be going to Beichen Star to attend university, which means you'll be far away from home."
"The wild rhino pork that is a specialty of our Guiyuan Star is many times more expensive on Beichen Star."
Xia Chujian laughed and said, "That's right! That's why I wolfed down the whole meal, hahahaha!"
After the meal, little A Zheng stayed in the baby rocking chair without crying or making a fuss, just looking at Xia Chujian and smiling.
Ning Sa was secretly amazed.
After dinner, when Xia Chujian and Xia Yuanfang were about to leave, A Zheng pouted and wanted to cry.
However, after being touched on the head by Xia Chujian, he squinted his eyes and calmed down.
By the time Xia Chujian and Xia Yuanfang boarded the small aircraft and flew away, A Zheng had already fallen asleep.
Ning Sa looked at his obedient appearance and said with a smile: "You know you're tired, right? You've been staring at Miss Xia with your eyes open for several hours a night. If you weren't so young, I would have thought you were attracted to her..."
…
Xia Chujian drove a small aircraft and parked it on the helipad of his manor.
The teacup dog that was watching on the terrace outside her bedroom window finally jumped off the terrace fence, stretched out its little paws, pushed open the window, and entered the bedroom.
The little fat bird flew to the top of the cat climbing frame next to the floor-to-ceiling window, tucked its little bird's head between its wings, and fell asleep again.
The teacup dog turned around and used its little paws to pull back and close the floor-to-ceiling window. Then it jumped up with a lightness that was completely inconsistent with its small body, and jumped onto the protruding wooden board of the two-meter-high cat climbing frame.
The pressure that enveloped the entire city gradually dissipated into the air.
At this moment, in a monitoring room of the Special Security Bureau's Mulan City branch, the staff on duty occasionally glanced at the curve of the alien beast's magnetic field tonight and was stunned by the peak value.
He hurriedly reported to his superiors, saying, "Is there any particularly powerful creature descending upon Mulan City tonight?"
"Why is there such a big anomaly in the alien beast's magnetic field monitoring curve?"
His boss was also surprised when he saw the magnetic field monitoring curve.
In the Beichen Empire, any animal that has evolved self-awareness is called a strange beast.
Animals that have not evolved self-awareness and can only survive by instinct are just ordinary beasts.
Because strange beasts have a certain degree of self-awareness, when their brains are active, they produce a magnetic field different from that of ordinary animals.
The Special Security Bureau's instruments can monitor the activity and distribution of this magnetic field.
However, after communicating with local correctional officers on duty on the ground, they came to a completely different conclusion.
