Chapter 92
"That's good, that's good!"
Mu Ling heaved a sigh of relief!
If Brother Xiang was really a legal expert, she really didn't know what to do.
Xiang Bie looked at her surviving look with a cold expression, and continued to stare at her.
After Mu Ling put down the heavy stone in her heart, she was in a good mood, but when she turned her head, the upturned corners of her mouth immediately pressed down. She asked cautiously: "Is there anything else?"
Xiang Bie's face was dark: "Nothing else you want to ask?"
Mu Ling: "..."
Xiang Bie: "………………"
Okay, really nothing!
Xiang Bie turned around and continued to feed magic grass, and didn't want to talk anymore.
Mu Ling looked at his back, was quiet for a while, and then said: "Brother Xiang, in fact, you have already told me the answer to some things. Didn't you say before that the meaning of your name is to part with the past and never look back."
Xiang Bie was stunned and turned around.
Mu Ling smiled: "So, I really have no doubts, everything is clear."
You must have experienced something very difficult, so you gave up the honor of the marshal, hid your identity and became another person, and lived the simplest and plain life. You don't want to mention your past anymore, you don't want to look back anymore, so why should I dig deep and expose your scars?
Maybe Mu Ling's tone was too serious, Xiang Bie looked at her like this for a long time.
Then, he said "hmm" softly.
Seeing that he was no longer insisting, Mu Ling said, "Let's just live well in the present. I won't treat you differently because of your past identity. Let's get along like before, okay?"
Xiang Bie looked at her, his eyes slowly softened, "Okay."
Mu Ling said, "Then remember to sweep the floor after you feed the grass, change the water in the sink, and clean the sink."
Xiang Bie: "..."
Until the glass door closed again, Xiang Bie looked at Mu Ling's back as she left, and his brows suddenly knitted deeply.
Why did he feel that she, who repeatedly emphasized that the past was not important and the present was important, was afraid that he would rely on the halo of his former marshal to do nothing, and specifically reminded him that he was nothing now, and as long as he didn't break the law, he had to work until he was old?
After feeding the last handful of grass to the impatient red elephant, Xiang Bie resigned himself to picking up the broom and began to sweep the broken grass on the ground.
After a while, Wei Li came in stealthily and asked in a low voice: "Brother Xiang, did the director interrogate you just now?"
Xiang Bie said coldly: "No."
Wei Li frowned: "Then why did you talk for so long? Brother Xiang, don't lie to me, the director must have forced you."
Xiang Bie: "..."
Xiang Bie didn't want to talk to him, he had to go clean the sink later.
Wei Li was particularly anxious: "It's over, it's over, can we not stay in the Bic Zoo now? Will the director chase us away? Has she hinted at this?"
"No." Seeing that Wei Li was indeed too anxious, Xiang Bie had to explain: "She said that everything is normal."
Wei Li's eyes lit up: "Really? Everything is normal? Then she hasn't found out, or has she already found out, but is kind-hearted and doesn't discriminate against you because you were a marshal and I was a lieutenant colonel?"
Xiang Bie: "..."
Discrimination...
Wei Li sighed again: "In fact, I was young and ignorant, so I became a lieutenant colonel. As a result, it's like I have a cyber criminal record. Now I have to be caught wherever I go.
"You have to live with your tail down..." As he said that, Wei Li looked at Xiang Bie again: "But if we have to talk about the worst, it's you, Brother Xiang, who is more miserable. You are a higher official than me, so you have to be better to the director in the future. You must not make her angry and you must obey her in everything. Otherwise, if she is unhappy, she will report us and we will have no choice but to flee!"
Wei Li felt uncomfortable when he thought that he might have to live that kind of precarious life and hide from place to place in the future. He shook his head, put his hands behind his back, and slowly left the glass house.
Xiang Bie: "..."
Xiang Bie almost laughed out of anger.
-
Wei Li was really worried that he would be chased away at first.
Until the next day, the director still let him place orders and check goods as usual, did not deprive him of his position as general manager, and did not deduct his chicken legs when he ate lunch after work. Wei Li finally believed that the director really did not intend to make things difficult for them.
Wei Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he immediately became visibly cheerful.
-The
opening of the War Beast Nursery has set off a wave of heat on the Star Network, but after all, there are only two animals, so the heat is still limited.
However, what makes netizens wonder is that they have clearly asked the breeders, whether it is the Snow Bear Killing or the Nine Needle Pig Devouring, they are all adult war beasts, why is this place called a War Beast Nursery?
It sounds like a place to raise young animals.
Mu Ling happened to see this comment, and she replied online: [Because every war beast is a baby.]
Immediately, netizens followed up with her reply.
[Hahahaha, so that's the case, right, right, of course the war beasts are all babies, and the place where the babies live is the nursery, there's nothing wrong with that!]
[Are you replying to this post when you have time instead of posting a video? Urge me to update!]
[The director has been really productive lately, so I won't urge you to update. I just want to ask when the damage values of the other war beasts will be posted?]
[I want to know more about the war beast nursery, which has ten glass houses. When will the remaining animals be open? I have a ticket for the day after tomorrow. Can I see the new animals? 】
Mu Ling frowned when she saw this reply, and asked Wei Li while eating: "Brother Wei, can the A-level desert colt from Jiama Zoo on Jiama Star arrive today?"
Because Mu Ling was afraid that the ten war beasts from the nursery would come all at once, and they would not be able to take care of them, so they decided to send one every one to two weeks. Now the Nine-needle Pig has been here for more than a week, and the conditions of both the Snow Bear and the Nine-needle Pig are getting better every day, so they arranged for the next war beast to come, but the desert colt that should have been delivered two days ago has not been seen for a long time.
Jiama Zoo said that the people and the colt had already boarded the starship, but the starship should have encountered a meteorite tide so it was delayed.
But even if it is delayed, it can't be so late.
Wei Li was now being held by the director's pigtails, and he no longer complained that he, the general manager, was like a handyman. As soon as the director gave the order, he immediately stopped eating and quickly took out his laptop to contact the people at Jiama Zoo.
Mu Ling looked at him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You eat first, there is no need to rush for a few minutes."
Wei Li hurriedly said: "I, your humble servant Wei Li, swear to serve your majesty like a dog or a horse! I will serve you with my heart and soul, and I will never give up! It's just breakfast, you don't have to eat it!"
Mu Ling: "..."
Wei Li called the laptop, but no one answered. He frowned, took a bite of the meat bun, and muttered: "What's the situation?"
Mu Ling asked: "Did you call the keeper of the desert horses?"
"Yes." Wei Li said, "Last night, Jiama Zoo gave me the keeper's phone number, but no one answered when I called last night. I thought someone fell asleep in the middle of the night and didn't notice it."
Mu Ling frowned, "Then call later. You keep an eye on it."
Wei Li said, "Okay."
Wei Li was busy with the service area all morning, and communicated with the people in the fleet. When he was free again, he called again, but no one answered the call and it was turned off.
Can the optical computer be turned off?
I'm not a soldier, why would I turn off the optical computer if there's nothing to do?
Wei Li was feeling suspicious, but a piece of news suddenly popped up above his optical computer interface.
Wei Li only took a glance and his expression changed. The headline of the news read: U33 starship has been missing for more than 39 hours. The Federal Bureau said that it has opened a case for investigation.
U33 starship, isn't this the starship that went from Jiama Star to Shenwang Star?
Wei Li's face was not good. He made a call while walking towards the animal dormitory.
When Mu Ling heard the news, she was changing King Kong's bandage with Dr. Bree. She looked up at Wei Ge and asked, "Missing?"
Wei Li said, "Yes, the news has been published, and it has become the most searched topic on Starnet. Some people in the comment section said that they encountered rebels, and some said that they encountered interstellar pirates. However, the official news said that U33 disappeared near a meteorite tide, so it is possible that it was hit by a meteorite tide. It is not ruled out that the starship crashed and all the bodies were gone..."
Mu Ling looked very unhappy and asked, "Has the Jiama Zoo known about it?"
"I just called to ask, they just found out too, now it's a mess."
Mu Ling exhaled. At this time, they couldn't do anything, they could only say: "Keep paying attention."
Perhaps because the missing starship was too big a matter, under the constant pressure from netizens and family members, the government issued a new announcement in less than 12 hours, stating that the starship was not destroyed by a meteorite tide, because all the planets near the meteorite tide had been checked, and no starship wreckage was found. As soon as
this news came out, netizens and family members breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that the starship didn't break up, at least the people were still alive, so where did the starship go?
By the next morning, the popularity of this incident had gone from a few hot searches yesterday to the top 20 of the entire hot search list, all of which were related to it.
On the third and fourth days, the popularity continued to increase.
On the fifth day, seeing that the people were about to criticize the government for not finding anyone, a new announcement finally appeared, stating that the U33 starship had been found, and its location was Nurha Star. The starship had suffered extensive damage due to an emergency landing, and the military was doing its best to rescue it.
After that, the announcements were almost all good news.
Five hundred people have been rescued.
One thousand people have been rescued.
All passengers and crew members have been rescued, a total of 3,091 people, 386 people were slightly injured, 103 people were seriously injured, and no one died.
The President has arrived at Nurha Planet and personally consoled and cared for the injured people.
At this point, there is finally a good result. Everyone is thankful that no one died. This is a blessing in disguise!
Just when everyone thought that this matter was finally over.
"Nurha Planet" once again topped the trending search.
The entry is - Emergency! A large number of alien beasts have been discovered on Nurha Planet, and now all entrances and exits to the planet are blocked!
Mu Ling looked at this trending search, and then looked at the comment area below that exploded in an instant. He was silent for a moment, turned his head, and looked at Brother Xiang who was sitting next to him.
Xiang Bie was also looking at the optical computer, and seemed to have noticed Mu Ling's gaze. He said calmly: "Trap."
Mu Ling said nothing.
Xiang Bie looked at her: "U33 starship is a bait, the target is the president, it's too obvious."
Yes, it's too obvious, a suspicious disappearance, the time of disappearance just happened to be the moment when the people's patience was about to run out, so even if it was to appease the people, the president would have to go to Nurha Star in person to express his condolences, and this was the purpose behind it.
Mu Ling looked at Brother Xiang next to her. She had checked the information of the "Marshal Xiang" and naturally found out the relationship between him and the president's wife... He is the nephew of the president's wife, which means that the president is his uncle...
"You..." Mu Ling tried to say something.
Xiang Bie turned off the optical computer, stood up and said, "I'm going to patrol the mountains."
After that, he walked out.
Mu Ling looked at Brother Xiang's back, and then looked at the optical computer, her expression became colder and colder.
She didn't understand national affairs or the game of power. She only knew that the current Nurha Star was just like the Xuan Gu Star a year ago, where a wave of alien beasts was artificially created.
Many people will die...
-The
blood-red desert colt raised its high hooves.
The black mane shook violently in the night wind.
"Whisk!" The angry snort represented a warning and threat.
"Trample!" The desert colt kicked a mutant dog away with one foot. When the mutant dog turned around to bite it, it kicked the mutant dog again and kicked it to the side of the road far away. Then it ran over and stomped on the mutant dog until it was crushed into meat paste.
A mutant dog died, but in the dark night, there were more mutant beasts lurking in the dark.
Suddenly, a moderately infected cat with six legs fell from the sky. With its miserable meow, it jumped onto the back of the desert foal, about to bite through its flesh!
The desert foal felt the enemy on its back, and it began to swing its body frantically, trying to throw the enemy away.
But the mutant cat's claws had already dug into its flesh. The desert steed screamed loudly, and the next second...
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out from behind.
Bright red blood flowed from the mutant cat's body, and it instantly fell to the side, and fell to the ground with a thud.
The desert steed quickly turned around and kicked the mutant cat, but at this moment, its neck was suddenly caught!
The reins restrained it, and it struggled hard, but was pulled tighter.
"Whose war beast is this? Where's its master?"
Senior Colonel Yin Lingyun grabbed a long sniper rifle and pointed angrily at the strange war beast that shouldn't be in this search area. His face was gloomy and he asked, "Who is its master?"
At this time, a soldier next to him stepped forward and said, "Senior Colonel, this is not a war beast in our army. It seems to be the retired war beast on the U33 starship?"
Yin Lingyun was stunned. "Retired "How did the war beast get here?"
Another soldier said, "Its keeper was injured. It was originally locked up in the safe zone, and I don't know how it got out..."
Yin Lingyun frowned, "Take it back quickly!"
The two soldiers holding the rope immediately dragged the desert horse back, but the desert horse began to go crazy. It kicked the humans around it accurately and screamed continuously!
"Ahhh!" At this moment, a man's scream rang out in the residential building next door.
Because the alien beasts suddenly invaded Nurha Star, the government urgently called on all citizens not to go out and close the doors and windows, but looking at this situation, there are still alien beasts running in!
Yin Lingyun immediately led two beast soldiers to rush upstairs. There were seven people and two beasts in their group, and they were responsible for searching the six streets nearby.
Five people and two beasts ran upstairs, and the other two soldiers still held the desert steed and stood guard downstairs.
After a while, the sound of an ambulance came from afar, and the five people and two beasts upstairs came down. One of the soldiers was carrying a wounded middle-aged man down. When the ambulance stopped, he hurriedly put the man on the ambulance.
Until the ambulance left, Yin Lingyun looked at the desert steed with a headache again, and said to the two soldiers holding the rope: "No matter what method you use, hurry up and take it back."
The two soldiers tried hard to pull the struggling desert steed.
Yin Lingyun's subordinates looked at the war dogs and war leopards in their team and couldn't help complaining: "Colonel, can't we apply for war birds? But we are used to using war birds!"
The owners of the war dogs and war leopards nodded repeatedly. When they followed the colonel before, they used war birds to explore the way and then followed from behind.
When they were clearing the planet 917, the colonel was in charge of that place and they could use war birds. As a result, they were fighting well on the front line of 917, but were suddenly transferred to Nurha Planet. As soon as they came, because of the emergency, the war beasts were not evenly distributed, and their team had serious shortcomings.
The war dog's master said, "Without warbirds for reconnaissance and vanguard, the war dogs and war leopards are very likely to be injured in a surprise attack. Colonel, please apply again."
Yin Lingyun said coldly, "Nurha Star is too large. If you want to control the spread of the alien beast tide at the beginning, you need a large number of war beasts to search in a dispersed manner. Now war beasts are in short supply. Many teams even have only one war beast. Don't be picky.
" People also understand this truth, but who doesn't feel sorry for their war beasts? Their war dogs and war leopards are both B-level, and their killing power is not strong. If they are besieged by mutants, they will be easily injured. Just look at the mutant cat just now, it is moderately infected. Their war dogs and war leopards were bitten twice by moderately infected monsters. Once the toxins penetrate, they may suffer neurological trauma!
"Then can we apply for an S-level or A-level?"
Yin Lingyun continued to search forward, and at the same time touched his military optical computer, and said after a while: "S-level, A-level, I have seen that there are 193 teams and there is still no war beast. You may have to transfer one away soon."
Several people were dumbfounded. What, just transfer one away?
One of the subordinates said, "If I had known, I would have left that desert horse behind!"
Yin Lingyun's face darkened, "That's a retired war beast!"
The subordinate remembered that the colonel's own war bird, Tayun, had also been retired, so he immediately shut up and continued the search.
At the same time, at the Nurha Star Combat Headquarters.
The military admiral of Nurha Star was already very busy. He looked at the map and saw that the area that had been searched was less than one percent of the entire planet. He looked very bad and asked, "What did Director Chai of the Security Department say? When will the president be arranged to evacuate? It's been a whole day!"
The major general next to him said helplessly, "Director Chai said that this is obviously a trap set for the president. If they evacuate rashly, they might fall into the trap. So until they can be 100% sure that there is no risk in evacuating, they can only stay put."
The admiral was going to be very nervous. If something really happened to the president in his jurisdiction, he would be held responsible!
The general gritted his teeth and said, "Send two more teams to protect the president!"
The major general made a gesture to his subordinates, and after the subordinates left, he asked again, "The people below are urging us, when will the Beast Guard be dispatched? The search team is in urgent need of war beasts!"
"Don't I know there's a shortage? Where can I get them? I even transferred Yin Lingyun's entire regiment from the 917 front. He has a lot of experience in this kind of war, but there aren't many war beasts in his regiment. The garrisons of other planets don't dare to move. There are quite a few support troops that can be moved, but there aren't many beast troops among them!"
The major general whispered, "The loss on Xuan Gu Star a year ago was so severe because the spread of alien beasts was not controlled in the first place. We must not repeat the same mistake this time. We must take care of the war beasts!"
"Enough? How can I manage enough? It will take tens of thousands of war beasts!"
The major general suddenly thought of something and said, "We have several zoos here. I'll ask my subordinates to contact them. There are some retired war beasts in them..."
"Are you crazy?" The admiral's face suddenly became ugly: "The retired war beasts are already dying of illness. If you dare to take advantage of them, you can wait for the military court!"
The major general was stunned, and then he was disappointed: "Yeah, these zoos are not Piccolo Zoo..."
"Picco Zoo..." The admiral murmured, looking at the major general: "Can the ones from Piccolo Zoo be transferred?"
The major general hesitated again: "No, after all, they are retired war beasts... and there are not many of them, only a dozen S-level ones..."
Only a dozen S-level ones?
Before the incident, they only had one S-class war beast in the entire Nurha planet!
The admiral muttered: "S-class war beasts can smell the scent of alien beasts within a hundred kilometers, and a dozen of them is more than a thousand kilometers."
He pointed at the map: "One team leads one S-class war beast. Ten S-class war beasts can catch up with the workload of the current 100 teams!"
The major general said: "Then, ask?"
The general pondered for a moment, then got up and walked to the command center next door.
-At
three o'clock in the middle of the night, Mu Ling was sleeping in a daze, and suddenly heard the computer ringing.
She frowned, opened it and saw that it was Director Wang.
Mu Ling answered the phone vaguely: "Hello?"
Director Wang on the other end spoke quickly: "Director Mu, I remember that the war beasts in your park were loaned to the ground troops stationed on the God King Star before?"
Mu Ling supported her body and sat up. She didn't know why Director Wang suddenly asked this, and said: "Yes, they were loaned, what happened?"
"Nothing happened to the war beasts at that time?"
Mu Ling replied: "No."
"Then do you think, with their current physical condition, they can be loaned again?"
Mu Ling was stunned and asked directly: "Loaned to whom?"
Director Wang was silent for a moment and said: "Nurha Star."
Mu Ling's breathing stagnated.
Director Wang said hurriedly: "You can refuse. I said that everything is based on the body of the war beast and your judgment."
Mu Ling didn't understand: "Why do you want to borrow from me? Doesn't the military region have war beasts?"
"Not enough war beasts." Director Wang said: "Even if it is seconded, we must ensure that other planets have capable beast troops to guard the house, so it is impossible to borrow all the war beasts. In fact, there are not many that can be borrowed from a planet like this. The headquarters and the support troops have already borrowed all. Nurha Star is a planet with a large area. If you want to clear the entire planet as quickly as possible, you need a large number of war beasts, many, many war beasts."
Mu Ling was silent. After a while, she pursed her lips and said: "I can borrow, but you must ensure that my war beasts are not in danger."
"I guarantee that your war beasts will only detect, and humans will do the fighting! I won't let your war beasts fight the alien beasts head-on."
Mu Ling smiled bitterly. Major Chang said the same thing last time, but Qilin, Lightning, and Qingjiao still teamed up to kill two mutant tigers.
However, she watched the news on Nurha Star every day, could she really remain indifferent?
Exhaling, Mu Ling said, "Okay, but I still need to ask their owners. If their owners don't want to..."
"Don't worry about it. The military will communicate."
Mu Ling thought that the owner of the war beast was also a soldier, so she said, "Okay."
An hour later, the military's starship stopped at the service area square of the Beak Zoo. Major Chang personally led a team to pick up people. His soldiers were moving cages out of the military ship.
Seeing this, Mu Ling said, "No need for cages."
As she said that, she stood at the door of the glass house and began to count the troops.
"Qilin, go out!"
The confused tearing tiger suddenly heard the military command of "go out" that it had not heard for a long time. It looked up at Mu Ling in confusion, then yawned, walked over, and sat next to Mu Ling.
Mu Ling touched its head and said, "Lightning, come out!"
The black leopard swung its tail, and after coming over, it sat on the other side of Mu Ling, looking up at Mu Ling.
Mu Ling touched it again and continued, "Qingjie, come out!"
Qingjie seemed to realize something, she lowered her head and licked the wolf cub's fur, then she grabbed the sleeping wolf cub's head, dragged the wolf cub to Gus, and then walked towards Mu Ling.
"Moonlight, come out!"
Moonlight climbed up with the teddy bear in her mouth.
"You can't bring toys, we're going to war! Put it down!"
"Pah!" The teddy bear fell to the ground. Moonlight understood the command "put it down". It nudged the teddy bear with its pointed nose, and then walked towards Mu Ling aggrievedly. After walking over, it pushed its head against Mu Ling again.
Mu Ling held it in her arms and said, "Pimi, go!"
Pimi stood up neatly. Now he was the PE teacher and walked very agilely.
"Magic, go!"
"Ang!" Magic raised his long nose and walked over with heavy steps.
"Step on the clouds, go!"
With a long cry, the brave falcon came rushing over and landed on Mu Ling's arm skillfully.
"Feifan, go!"
The purple electric baboon cried and ran towards Mu Ling.
"Lieyan, go!"
Lieyan squeaked and came over to climb onto Mu Ling.
At this point, the military roll call was over.
Mu Ling turned around and said to Major Chang, "There is still one actor in the veterinary station. Our breeder has already called him. The others cannot be brought."
The leopard Jixiang is not stable and cannot be brought.
Not to mention loyalty, it is just getting better.
Xuehua is old, her physical strength and sense of smell and eyesight have declined, so she is not suitable.
King Kong's leg is still injured.
Dingtian was originally a defensive logistics beast, and they were going to search this time, so Dingtian was not suitable either.
As for Xuelixiongsha and Jiuzhenzhuswallow, they had only been here for more than two weeks and had just recovered. Besides, they were from other people's zoos, and she had no right to take the beasts from other people's zoos on adventures.
Major Chang looked at Mu Ling and the group of animals surrounding her. He looked deeply, nodded, and made a "please" gesture to her.
Mu Ling led the beasts directly to the starship, watching the beasts get on the starship one by one. Finally, she saw Brother Xiang bringing the actors in.
Mu Ling waved to Lingren, and Lingren ran over. Mu Ling picked him up, and then she held Lingren and walked onto the starship.
Mu Ling stood at the door of the starship. She looked at Brother Xiang who was standing outside, and was silent for a moment, and said, "Take good care of the house. Many animals have left. I will post a message to explain the situation. When the tourists come tomorrow morning, you should also make it clear before they enter that we are missing a large number of war beasts. If tourists want to refund their tickets, they can refund them. If they want to change their tickets, they can change their tickets."
Xiang Bie said nothing, still standing outside and looking at her.
Mu Ling looked at Brother Xiang for a while, then turned around and walked inside.
But the next second, she suddenly heard something behind her. She turned around and saw Brother Xiang already standing in the starship.
Mu Ling was stunned.
The starship door behind her slowly closed.
Xiang Bie said, "Wei Li will take good care of you."
Mu Ling looked straight at him.
Xiang Bie pursed his lips and said, "I'm worried about you."
