That day, Xia Chuhe spent a day as a peacock.
Being a peacock seems more comfortable than being an exchange student. There are no annoying counselors constantly spouting nonsense about dedication and hard work, and no roommates as difficult to get along with as Eagle.
There's an abundance of delicious food and fine wine; it's just that she occasionally needs to show off her beauty...
After the beauty contest that evening, the Blue Peacock spoke: "Ah, happy times always pass too quickly! Beautiful princesses, we will be parting tomorrow. Tonight is the last night of differentiation. Princesses whose differentiation is not yet complete, please hurry up!"
After Lan Kongque finished speaking, she glanced at Xia Chuhe.
Xia Chuhe: ...
Are you clicking on me? Whatever.
After making several appearances throughout the day, Xia Chuhe had finally recognized Lu Dangui and Li Yue.
They were in pretty good shape, still somewhat human-like, if you ignored their increasingly ornate robes...
Faced with this situation, Xia Chuhe was powerless. All she could do was remind everyone in the group to try to consume as little food and water as possible from the dungeon.
As for whether others could do it, Xia Chuhe had no power to care.
Compared to caring about others, Xia Chuhe was more concerned about herself. Her condition wasn't particularly good either; originally, she only had one feather growing on her eyelid, but now her eyelids were covered with feathers, making her look like a seductive villain from an animated film.
I spent a peaceful night filled with anxiety.
Xia Chuhe was unaware that there was someone in the Raptor Academy who was even more worried than she was.
...
Wang Yan lost his egg.
He treasured it so much, he slept with it, and even held it while using the toilet!
It's gone!
Before going to sleep, Wang Yan tucked the egg into his bosom, close to his stomach, and tucked his shirt into his pants.
The eggs were stored very well and are safe.
Wang Yan even slept on his side, afraid of crushing the egg.
But when I woke up, my shirt was still stuffed in my pants, and the egg had vanished into thin air.
Tomorrow is the day to check the differentiation results. Before that, each duck must put at least one egg into its egg canal.
Wang Yan couldn't bear to part with his eggs, so he delayed releasing them.
Now, he is filled with regret.
Wang Yan was so worried that he couldn't eat, so worried that he was losing handfuls of duck feathers, so worried that his eyes were lifeless and he looked like a wooden duck.
Wang Yan went to each of the egg-laying ducks to ask them. He asked the duck next to him, "My eggs are missing. Have you seen my eggs?"
The duck being asked looked sympathetic: "Sorry, I didn't see it. You can ask other ducks."
Wang Yan asked many people, "I was so stupid, really. I only knew that you shouldn't press on the egg while sleeping and to put the egg in a safe place, but I didn't know that the egg could be lost if it was in my clothes."
The ducks all expressed their sympathy for Wang Yan's plight, kindly comforted him, and promised to call him immediately if they saw any unclaimed eggs.
That evening, when the gentle zookeeper came, Wang Yan asked it, "Locator, you know everything. Do you know that the eggs laid by each duck can be tracked?"
"Gah, I heard that some places mark duck eggs, but we don't do that here."
"Did you know that after ducklings hatch, they find their biological parents?"
"Gah, raising a child is worse than having a biological parent. Whoever hatches the egg, the duckling belongs to that person. The duckling is closest to the first duck it sees after hatching."
"Oh, I see..." Wang Yan muttered dejectedly, "I was so stupid, really."
He walked further and asked the duck in the corner, "I'm so stupid, really, I lost my eggs. I only knew to put the eggs away properly, I didn't know they would get lost. My eggs were so well-behaved and beautiful, round and plump, my poor little eggs..."
Wang Yan's story had already spread throughout the duck shed, and the ducks, who initially felt sympathy, gradually became annoyed.
The duck in the corner said, "If you can't watch the eggs properly, who can you blame?"
The other one mocked, "If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have been better off not having given birth."
Wang Yan was stunned. He murmured, "Yes, it would have been better not to have laid any. I've seen the best egg in the world, but I lost it. Even if I lay hundreds or thousands of eggs in the future, they won't be the same..."
The other ducks shook their heads, saying, "They've gone mad! They've all gone mad..."
That night, Wang Yan tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Other ducks that haven't laid eggs also have difficulty falling asleep.
At dawn, the loudspeaker blared, and the voice this time was different from the others—
"Ducks that have not yet handed in their eggs, please do so as soon as possible! Egg counting will begin soon, so please submit your eggs promptly!"
Not submitting a duck egg means that differentiation has not been completed.
Nobody knows what punishment they will receive.
