Chapter 25
Pimi’s condition was more serious than Mu Ling had imagined.
In the black iron cage, the lion lay exhausted on the soft bedding. When Mu Ling went out to get a water bowl and a food bowl, the cage was already smelling bad.
“Roar! Roar!” The Qilin, who didn’t like the smell of other beasts, roared uncomfortably at Pimi’s cage in his own cage.
Lightning on the opposite side also scratched the iron door in annoyance.
Only the bottom of the food chain in this ward area, the brown deer, was silent throughout the whole process and tried very hard to reduce its presence.
Mu Ling stood outside Pimi’s cage and felt a little helpless. Pimi pooped, and it pooped while sitting on the mattress.
It has lost control of its bowels and bladder...
"Director..." Wei Li came in and called Mu Ling. Seeing Mu Ling standing at the door of the cage, he was stunned for a moment, then he went over to take a look, and then he fell silent.
Mu Ling turned around and asked Wei Li: "What's wrong?"
Wei Li said: "Lieutenant Colonel Song and the others are looking for you."
Mu Ling said ok, she walked into the cage, put down the food and water bowls, and then touched the lion's head.
Pimi looked at her tiredly and did not resist...
Mu Ling stood up again, walked out, and said to Wei Li: "Brother Wei, please help me buy some animal diapers online. They must be suitable for Pimi to wear. With Pimi's body, he needs to wear diapers for at least half a month before he can recover his self-care ability."
Wei Li was a little surprised: "Can it be cured in half a month?"
Mu Ling smiled: "Take medicine and eat well, and you will be fine."
Wei Li: "..."
But Lieutenant Colonel Song said that Pimi just refused to take medicine and eat...
But thinking about how Pimi was coaxed by the director just now and really took the medicine, Wei Li felt that this matter seemed uncertain... Anyway, just forget your brain and hands, and do whatever the director tells him to do.
Wei Li said, "Okay, I'll buy it later."
After Mu Ling went out, she originally thought that Lieutenant Colonel Song was going to say goodbye to her, but he opened his mouth and said that he wanted to stay tonight.
Mu Ling was a little confused: "Stay in our zoo?"
Lieutenant Colonel Song was embarrassed: "I'm really worried about Pimi's condition. Director Mu, you don't have to worry about me. I can just find a place to sit for one night. I just want to watch over it. It was just rescued today..."
After all, Lieutenant Colonel Song was Pimi's former owner. Mu Ling also understood his feelings, so she said: "Okay, we have a lot of empty rooms here. Let Brother Wei take you to the room later. If you want to stay It does n't matter how long it takes."
Lieutenant Colonel Song breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly, "Thank you, Director Mu!"
Mu Ling waved her hands and was about to say it was all right when the four Happy Canyon employees suddenly spoke up, "Hey, Director Mu, we want to stay tonight too, can we?"
Mu Ling: "..."
Mu Ling looked at the four people in surprise, "You guys want to stay too?"
The four employees were extremely embarrassed, "We are not too sure about Pimi..."
After all, Pimi was the animal fostered by them before. They are from the zoo, they always have some responsibility...
Mu Ling pursed her face, she was too embarrassed to confront them, they all run zoos, maybe they will have some interactions in the future, she could only say: "Well... OK, let Brother Wei take you to the room later..."
The four Happy Canyon employees were very happy and said quickly: "We can help, too, if you need anything, just tell us to do it, oh, by the way, I will transfer the maintenance fee of Pimi to you now, you Is it convenient to receive it?"
Mu Ling was stunned: "Sending maintenance fees?"
The employee had already opened his computer: "Yes, Pimi is a retired war beast. The federal government stipulates that when retired war beasts are received by zoos, the government will issue a subsidy. Our zoo definitely cannot take this money. Our manager asked us to transfer the full amount to you. Should I transfer it directly to you or to your finance department? The total is 150,000 interstellar coins."
"How much?!!!" Mu Ling's voice suddenly rose and her eyes widened: "One hundred and fifty thousand interstellar coins???!"
The Happy Canyon employee scared her and her voice was a little stammering: "S, S-class retired war beast, it's one hundred and fifty thousand interstellar coins... Director Mu, if you don't believe it, you can call your Forestry Bureau to verify it!" They didn't embezzle a penny!
Lieutenant Colonel Song also helped to prove: "Yes, Director Mu, the cost of sending Pimi to foster care is 150,000 interstellar coins, but don't worry, I know this amount of money is not enough. I will donate to you regularly every year in the future. As long as Pimi can live well, I will not let you bear the expenses of taking care of Pimi alone..."
After all, raising a retired war beast that is sick and cannot be open to the public is bound to be a loss-making transaction for the zoo. Although his salary is not high, he can still save part of the money every year to buy medicine for Pimi, as long as Pimi can live!
Mu Ling waved her hands quickly: "No, no, no, I'm not questioning, I just..." She just didn't know that there was money to be made from taking in retired war beasts!
She immediately looked at Brother Xiang and Brother Wei, but saw that Brother Xiang frowned, while Brother Wei was full of surprise...
Okay, these two people don't know either... Come to think of it, Brother Xiang and Brother Wei are both breeders. When they received the war beasts before, they could only be responsible for placing the war beasts. The people above must have been the ones who took care of the accounts.
Mu Ling quickly turned on her computer and handed over the bracelet attentively: "Just transfer it to me, my company's account is with me!"
The staff of Happy Canyon quickly transferred the money and asked Mu Ling to sign the handover form. Signing meant that both the animals and Qianbike Zoo were accepted, and the handover was officially completed.
After Mu Ling signed, she felt her heart pounding as she looked at the long string of zeros on the account balance. She instantly became enthusiastic: "Brother Wei, hurry up and take everyone back to the room to rest! It's so late! Bring everyone some drinks, and remember to buy breakfast for everyone tomorrow morning." She
then said to Colonel Song and the others: "You can stay as many days as you want, just treat this place as your own home! Don't be polite to me! Just tell us if you need anything!"
Colonel Song and the staff of Happy Canyon felt that Director Mu was really nice and honest.
After the others were taken away by Wei Li, Mu Ling hurriedly turned around and returned to the ward.
Looking at Pimi again at this moment, Mu Ling had to say that this was really the cutest incontinent lion she had ever seen!
But the butt is dirty, so it still needs to be wiped.
"Pimi, is your stomach still uncomfortable?" Mu Ling squatted beside the lion, put her hand in front of the lion's belly, and rubbed it gently.
The stomach is a very sensitive part of animals. Pimi wanted to resist, but Mu Ling didn't feel uncomfortable kneading it. After hesitating for a while, it still didn't resist, just lying there without moving...
Xiang Bie walked in at this time, and Mu Ling said: "Brother Xiang, can you help me find two basins of warm water? I'll wash Pimi's butt later. I'll go get some medicine for it first. After taking the medicine, it shouldn't have diarrhea tonight."
Xiang Bie took a look at the poor condition of the lion, said "hmm", and went outside.
Mu Ling got seven pills for Pimi, all of which were to protect the stomach and intestines, but if you feed it like this, only a fool would eat it. Mu Ling stuffed the medicine into a can of meat sauce. She wore a pair of protective gloves, then grabbed a ball of meat sauce and put it next to the lion's mouth: "Come on, Pimi, eat some."
Pimi didn't open his mouth at all, and even closed his eyes.
Mu Ling bent down, put her mouth close to its ear, and whispered to it: "Just eat a little, Pimi, be good. If you don't take the medicine, your health will get worse and worse. Pimi told your sister, ah, ah..."
Pimi didn't move, as if he was asleep.
Mu Ling continued to say in his ear: "Pimi, ah, ah..."
Pimi was annoyed and a little angry. He suddenly opened his mouth and wanted to roar!
"Um..."
As soon as his mouth opened, Mu Ling, who was waiting for him, stuffed the meat sauce into his mouth!
Pimi: "..."
There was a ball of meat sauce in Pimi's mouth. Between spitting it out and swallowing it, in the end, because it took less strength to swallow, he swallowed the meat sauce unhappily.
Then...
"Pimi, ah, tell your sister, ah..."
Pimi felt that he should get up and lie down somewhere else.
But he couldn't get up at all. After trying several times, he had no choice but to open his mouth again.
When Pimi finished eating the meat sauce containing the pills, Mu Ling took off her gloves, bent down and kissed him on the forehead: "So good."
Pimi didn't even look at Mu Ling. He just drooped his eyelids, his whole face was depressed, and he looked very disgusted with the world...
Mu Ling touched him gently again, but at this moment, Mu Ling suddenly felt something. She raised her head in confusion, and then, she instantly met two pairs of gloomy beast eyes.
A pair of cold brown-green beast eyes.
A pair of cool green animal eyes.
Mu Ling: "..."
Mu Ling looked at Qilin and Lightning who were staring at her quietly through several layers of iron railings. She suddenly felt guilty for no reason. She said awkwardly: "Don't be like this, Pimi brought in money. It brought a full 150,000. Before we officially open and make money, our whole family will rely on it. It's the financial sponsor..."
The tiger and the leopard naturally didn't understand what Mu Ling said.
The tiger just lay down on the spot, pressed its chin on its two front paws, and lay down like a tiger cake, staring at Mu Ling eagerly.
Lightning on the other side sat upright all the time, but the long black tail behind it kept swinging at Mu Ling.
Mu Ling: "..."
Mu Ling couldn't stand it anymore! She stood up like a rocket and rushed to the two little princesses. Then she hugged Qilin and kissed him, and then she hugged Lightning and rubbed him. She also affectionately called them "Mu Qilin" and "Mu Lightning", saying that she wanted them to take her surname!
When Xiang Bie came in with the basin of water, he saw the director who was completely controlled by the tiger and the leopard, and looked very worthless. He asked lightly: "Do you still want to wash?"
Mu Ling got up quickly: "Wash, wash, wash, wash now."
Mu Ling carried the basin of water into Pimi's cage. When she wiped Pimi's butt, Pimi finally moved.
The butt is the weakness of beasts, and they don't like their butts to be touched.
The big lion, who had difficulty swallowing, finally forced himself to muster up the strength. He turned around and yelled to Mu Ling: "Roar..."
Mu Ling pretended not to hear it, and directly grabbed Pimi's tail and rubbed the base of his tail.
"Roar!" Pimi yelled again.
The base of the tail was almost done, so he started to wipe the thighs.
"Roar!"
After wiping the base of one thigh, he started to wipe the other. At the same time, Mu Ling said: "Pimi, don't pinch your tail, sister can't see your butt."
But who is a good lion to show his butt to others!
Pimi pinched his tail tighter!
Outside, when Xiang Bie filled the second basin of water, he saw Wei Li coming back with Lieutenant Colonel Song and others.
Wei Li said, "Brother Xiang, they know Pimi is incontinent and said they would come to help clean it."
One of the Happy Canyon employees said, "Yes, Pimi was like this before. We usually have four people hold it down, one person rinses it, and then blows it dry with a hair dryer from a distance. You probably don't have enough manpower, so let us do it."
Xiang Bie paused and said nothing for a while.
The four employees were very conscious. They came over and took the basin from his hand, then asked, "You don't have water pipes here, right?"
Wei Li said, "No."
The man from Happy Canyon said, "Then this basin of water is definitely not enough. You should prepare at least three or four basins. The hair dryer should be prepared in advance. I see that you have turned on the air conditioner here. It will be troublesome if you catch a cold if you don't blow it dry in time after flushing."
Lieutenant Colonel Song volunteered, "Let me do it. Can I borrow your hair dryer?"
When giving Qilin a bath this afternoon, the hair dryer was left outside. Wei Li said, "I'll go get it."
After Wei Li left, Lieutenant Colonel Song asked Xiang Bie again, "Is Pimi in there?"
Xiang Bie pursed his lips and glanced at the person who was getting the water, then took Lieutenant Colonel Song into the ward area.
As soon as Lieutenant Colonel Song arrived at the door of the ward area, he was stunned. This is... Qilin?
The golden tiger sat on the ground. When it saw someone coming in, its brown-green eyes glanced over coldly.
Lieutenant Colonel Song had seen the video of Qilin trimming its nails, and his eyes could not help but fall on Qilin's claws, and then swept around the large and small bandages on its body.
Although Qilin also suffered a lot of injuries, it was still healthy compared to Pimi. At least the external injuries could be healed, but the internal injuries...
Lieutenant Colonel Song withdrew his gaze in a depressed mood, but he did not expect that when he turned his eyes, he actually saw a black cheetah in the cage diagonally opposite!
The black panther had a stern expression, and his emerald green eyes were full of vigilance and alertness towards strangers.
Lieutenant Colonel Song recognized it almost immediately. It was a flaming leopard!
He had been so worried about Pimi all day that he hadn't seen the hot searches in the evening, nor did he know that there were flaming leopards in Piccolo Zoo!
Looking at the leopard, there was obvious shock in Lieutenant Colonel Song's eyes. He opened his mouth to ask, and then he heard the voice of Director Mu: "Brother Xiang, is the water ready?" Lieutenant
Colonel Song looked forward, and then...
Lieutenant Colonel Song: "..."
At this time, the young and beautiful girl was squatting behind the buttocks of the skinny black-haired lion. She held a wet towel in one hand and the lion's hind legs in the other. After forcing the lion's legs apart, she stretched her towel directly inside and began to wipe the inside of the lion's thighs.
While wiping, she turned back to look at them, and then asked in surprise: "Lieutenant Colonel Song, didn't you go upstairs to rest?"
Lieutenant Colonel Song: "..."
Lieutenant Colonel Song didn't say anything, he just looked at this Director Mu, then his eyes shifted slowly, and looked at the black-headed lion lying on the ground, panting, and cursing.
The lion seemed to be really angry, its teeth were always bared, and the wrinkles of skin and flesh on the bridge of its nose made it look extremely aggressive. Its beast pupils were very black, and green light flashed in its eyes from time to time, which was a sign of its anger!
At this time, Mu Ling had also finished wiping the lion's inner thighs. She put down the lion's hind legs and turned to wash the towel. At this time, the lion licked its mouth, and the wrinkles on its nose disappeared. Its bared teeth retracted, and the green light in the depths of its pupils disappeared. It was angry for a while, and then after Mu Ling left, it let it go.
Just... let it go...
Lieutenant Colonel Song: "???"
"Lieutenant Colonel Song?" Mu Ling washed the towel while looking at Lieutenant Colonel Song, with obvious suspicion in her eyes.
Lieutenant Colonel Song finally came to his senses. He opened his mouth, and because of aphasia, his throat was hoarse. He said, "I, I'll help..."
Mu Ling smiled and said, "It's just a small job. It's okay. I'm almost done. Just wipe it again with clean water and blow it dry. By the way, Pimi has just taken medicine. It should be able to sleep well tonight."
Already...took... medicine?
Lieutenant Colonel Song: "???"
Just at this time, four employees from Happy Canyon outside also came in with several basins. They were also surprised when they saw Qilin and Lightning. Then, they saw Director Mu who was wiping Pimi's butt again...
The four people: "..."
"You are here too. You really don't need to help. I'm almost done. Just put the basin here." Mu Ling pointed to an open space. She had to change the water.
The four of them froze for a long while before they belatedly put down the basin.
Mu Ling used a clean wet towel to wipe Pi Mi's butt for the last time.
Pi Mi growled, bared his teeth, and became angry again.
But, let him be angry, and Director Mu should wipe Director Mu's work, and no one should delay anyone else...
After wiping the big lion thoroughly, Mu Ling stood up, rubbed her waist and said, "How about you pour the water for me? And wash the basin?"
Mu Ling saw so many people standing at the door waiting for help, and she couldn't help but appreciate their kindness, so she called out implicitly...
The four employees and Lieutenant Colonel Song were silent at first, and then the five of them tacitly started to bring water.
After a while, Wei Li brought in the hair dryer.
There was also a plug in the ward area. Mu Ling plugged it in and started to blow Pi Mi's butt hair.
The warm wind felt very comfortable. Pi Mi was finally not dissatisfied this time. When its hair was blown dry, Mu Ling handed the hair dryer to Wei Li and said to Colonel Song and the other five who were standing in the corner and had not left yet: "I will sleep in the veterinary station tonight and keep an eye on Pi Mi. You all go back and rest. Everyone is tired today. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Until the door of the veterinary station was closed, Colonel Song and the four Happy Canyon employees stood outside the door. After thinking for a while, they couldn't help asking Wei Li: "Director Mu, have you always taken care of retired war beasts like this? Has she... never been bitten?"
Wei Li thought for a moment, then shook his head firmly.
No, never!
Several people "..."
Several people were silent, and then at this moment, there was a "clang" sound, and something suddenly sounded in the veterinary station.
Wei Li thought something had happened, and hurriedly opened the door, and then he saw that the director had let Qilin and Lightning out again!
From his angle, he could see that the director was already lying on the sofa outside, and Qilin and Lightning were sitting next to the sofa. Qilin tilted his head next to the director's head, and Lightning was a little clingy, resting his chin in front of the director's belly. The director lay on her side facing them, touching Qilin's hair with one hand and scratching Lightning's nose with the other hand, and the clang sound just now was the sound of Qilin's hind legs hitting the chair next to it.
Wei Li: "..."
The five people including Lieutenant Colonel Song who were seen from behind: "????"
Wei Li quietly closed the door and complained to them: "Let's go, let's go back. Really, the director is so used to the children every day, and sooner or later, the children will be spoiled. Now Qilin likes to act like a young lady more and more. I think Lightning will be like this in two days!"
Wei Li muttered to himself. Seeing that no one around him spoke, he thought he talked too much, so he had to shut up.
And the five people including Lieutenant Colonel Song who didn't speak...
don't make noise, they are thinking!
-The
next day, Mu Ling was awakened by the sound of the communication prompt.
She opened her eyes and was in a trance for a moment before she remembered that she was sleeping on the sofa in the veterinary station.
Feeling her wake up, the tiger and the black panther sleeping beside her on the sofa opened their eyes at the same time. They stood up, shook their bodies, stretched, and looked at Mu Ling.
Mu Ling glanced at the communicator. It was an unfamiliar number. She pressed the answer button and then pressed the speaker button. Then she put on her slippers and walked towards the ward area, saying, "Hello, who is this?"
A strange male voice came from the communicator: "Hello, is this Director Mu of the Piccolo Zoo? We are the headquarters of the Shenwang Star garrison..."
Mu Ling paused and immediately thought of the officers she met yesterday. She hurriedly said, "Oh, hello, what can I do for you?"
The other side said: "It's like this, your garden assisted us in fighting the alien beasts. We plan to deliver the bonus and pennant that we applied for you today. Is it convenient?"
Mu Ling didn't expect the efficiency of the military to be so fast, and hurriedly said: "It's convenient, it's convenient, thank you so much!"
The other side smiled kindly: "No trouble, then please help us open the door, we are already at the gate of your zoo."
Mu Ling: "..."
Mu Ling was stunned. After hanging up the call, she first went to see Pimi in the cage. Pimi heard the sound and woke up at this time. Although he was still lying, he was looking at Mu Ling with his eyes wide open. Seeing
that Pimi was still alive, Mu Ling hurried out of the veterinary station and ran towards the gate.
Mu Ling took one step and sat at the gate in a flash, looking at the door lock in front of her.
Qilin turned around and was about to go back to his cage to sleep, when he suddenly heard a "click". The tiger turned around and saw that the door of the veterinary station was opened, and the black panther ran away.
"?"
Qilin tilted his head in confusion, and after a few seconds of silence, he took a step and ran out...
Mu Ling had just arrived at the gate. When she saw the dozen military trucks and dozens of soldiers in combat uniforms outside the zoo gate, she was shocked. No, a bonus of 600 yuan and a pennant, is it necessary to make such a big fuss?
Mu Ling was a little dazed. After opening the door, the straight-limbed young man who was leading the group outside extended his hand to her: "Is that Principal Mu? My last name is Chang."
Mu Ling hurriedly shook hands with him: "Chang..." She looked at his shoulder straps: "Hello, Major Chang!"
Major Chang withdrew his hand, turned around, took the banner and the envelope containing interstellar coins from his subordinates, and handed the two things to Mu Ling solemnly. At the same time, he stood at attention and saluted Mu Ling: "On behalf of the Divine King Star Garrison, thank you for your help!"
As soon as he saluted, the seventy or eighty soldiers behind him saluted Mu Ling in unison.
Mu Ling was stunned and waved his hands quickly: "Hey, no, no, it's all right, no need to do this..."
Major Chang put down his hands and said with a gentle smile: "In fact, I'll tell you, Director Mu, we came here today and we have something else that we want to ask you for help..."
Just when Major Chang said this, an officer behind him suddenly interrupted him and pointed to the inside of the zoo: "Major, look!" Major
Chang looked inside and his face immediately changed. He saw a cheetah with a black body and a tiger with many bandages tied to its body, rushing towards this side with a ferocious posture and swift steps!
The two beasts were coming with great momentum, and the combat soldiers behind Major Chang immediately began to draw their guns.
Mu Ling turned her head and saw Lightning and Qilin. She was also startled. Seeing the officers draw their guns, she hurriedly stopped them: "Don't shoot, don't shoot!"
As she said that, she immediately walked back and shouted loudly: "Qilin! Lightning! Stop right there!"
The running beasts didn't listen at all!
A captain of the beast army behind immediately said to Major Chang: "I said that the retired war beasts in the zoo are not reliable at all! They really will suddenly go crazy and suddenly attack humans! It's happening now!"
Major Chang scolded: "Why are you talking about this now? Hurry up and protect the female director!"
As he said that, he had already rushed up to pull Mu Ling behind him.
As a result, just as his hand touched Mu Ling's arm, the cheetah in front of him had already revealed its sharp teeth and nails. Its green eyes were filled with a sharp murderous aura, and it rushed up to attack Major Chang! Major
Chang looked solemn, and when he tried to dodge, a slender and soft woman's arm blocked him. Major Chang suddenly felt something was wrong, and just when he wanted to push Mu Ling away, Mu Ling had already hugged the lightning that was rushing up.
When the sharp teeth of the lightning were about to scratch Mu Ling, they immediately closed, and the coldness in its eyes quickly faded. The black panther stopped in a daze, and it was held in Mu Ling's arms in surprise. Then it thought about it, stretched out its tongue, and gently licked Mu Ling's face.
But Mu Ling was about to be pissed off by it! She stood up, quickly stood in front of the black panther, and asked the young officer behind her: "Are you, are you okay?"
Major Chang glanced at the black panther that was protected by Mu Ling in a protective manner, with a serious expression, and said nothing.
Mu Ling was extremely embarrassed: "Its name is Lightning, I forgot it can open the door, and it opened the cage by itself yesterday... I'm so sorry, are you not hurt?"
Major Chang's expression was still serious, but he still said: "No."
Mu Ling breathed a sigh of relief, she turned around again, first looking at Lightning who was sitting in front of her and pretending to be good to her!
Then she looked at Qilin who was a few steps behind Lightning and just walked over now!
Mu Lingqi laughed, she put her
hands on her waist and cursed: "Mu Qilin! Mu Shandian! You two are going to rebel! Come back with me!" As she said that, Mu Ling grabbed Shandian's hair on the back of his neck with one hand and Qilin's hair on the back of his neck with the other hand, and quickly fled the crime scene with the tiger and the leopard!
Just kidding, there are soldiers at the door, and these two prodigals almost attacked the army just now! What if they want to investigate! Hurry up and run as fast as you can!
