"Ma'am, please don't play such jokes on me. Such bad jokes are not funny at all!"
Ye Wenya's brow furrowed, her expression grim. "Although I'm not a veterinarian, and this little fellow has only been picked up three days ago, look at its teeth. The tip of its second incisor hasn't been worn down by food, indicating it's not even a year old yet. It's probably between eight months and a year old. A typical wild cat, even in the wild, has a lifespan of at least five or six years. Now that it's my pet, I'll naturally keep it at home in the future. How could it possibly not live long?"
Just now, while Ye Wenya was standing at the security checkpoint, Xiao Hei was also scanned from head to toe by another staff member. Before the staff member could even explain how much port tax she would have to pay, the first thing they said was, "Your cat may not live much longer." This immediately made Ye Wenya's face drop, and her fair, beautiful face was pursed into a straight line.
"Miss, calm down!"
The staff member, holding the security scanner in his hand, also said seriously, "As a professional security officer, I would never joke with passengers like this."
"Your black cat seems to be in good condition right now. It can run, jump, and eat, and it doesn't have any physical injuries. But in fact, the equipment shows that it has severe mental disturbances and has suffered severe physical injuries before. If it continues in this state, its body will soon be unable to bear it."
The staff member's voice was somewhat heavy, and she looked at the black cat with a particularly loving look. She looked at the black cat, then at Ye Wenya, "This kind of illness can't be treated at a regular pet hospital... Unless you go to a regular large hospital and find a skilled pharmacist, but that will probably be quite expensive... In short, please be mentally prepared, young lady."
"Severe mental disorder? You mean mania?" Ye Wenya's eyebrows jumped. "Isn't mania only a disease that beastmen suffer from? Xiao Hei is just an ordinary black cat, how could it be manic?"
In the Orc Empire, physical constitution and mental strength are important criteria for measuring the ability of every orc.
Long-term and excessive consumption of exotic beast meat can lead to the contamination of mental power, or mental power being severely damaged when fighting a strong enemy, which may cause mental confusion and lead to physical collapse. Patients with severe mental confusion and the inability to transform into the form of an awakened beast are collectively referred to as mania.
Patients with mania may even lose consciousness in the later stages and indiscriminately attack everyone around them until they are exhausted and die suddenly.
Over the years, the Orc Empire has not publicly stated that any medicine can cure mania. Only some expensive drugs can barely alleviate the symptoms and delay the final onset of the disease.
It can almost be said that once a person is diagnosed with mania, he has been sentenced to death!
The staff member looked at Ye Wenya and Xiao Hei with some pity, and said comfortingly, "The equipment we have here is not a professional medical detector from the hospital. It is just a government-issued device for routine examinations of orc mental disorders to prevent the occurrence of manic patients in the port... So, its condition may not be as serious as you think. You and your friend can go to the hospital for a check-up later."
"It is not common for ordinary animals to have mental disorders, but mania is not uncommon in exotic animals. Ordinary animals can evolve into exotic animals, so it is natural that they may also have mental disorders... You should go to the hospital to check out the specific situation." Another staff member also came over and said to Ye Wenya.
There was a moment of silence around the security check counter. Bai Xia looked nervously at Ye Wenya and the black cat sitting cross-legged on the security check counter with no expression on its face. Although it was only three days, he knew how much the girl in front of him liked this black cat that she had just picked up.
"Thank you for telling me about this. How many interstellar coins do I need to pay this time?" Ye Wenya's face was serious. After pondering for a moment, she decided not to waste any more time and went to the hospital immediately to check the specific situation and inquire about detailed information about Xiao Hei.
As a master of pharmacy with strong mental power, Ye Wenya has outstanding abilities, but he knows little about the mania of this era.
Not much.
The original owner was just an ordinary person who couldn't awaken and transform into a beast, so naturally he didn't care much about mania.
Ordinary people who have not awakened to beast transformation usually have a low level of physical strength and do not need to go to the battlefield, so naturally they do not have much demand for exotic beast meat. In addition, since they do not need to face the Zerg, they are unlikely to contract mania.
What's more, the medicine for suppressing mania is something that only advanced pharmacy students know about. The original owner was a poor student, so he didn't understand it at all.
Xiao Hei and the medicinal herbs in the backpack cost Ye Wenya a total of 4,000 interstellar coins. Ye Wenya put the black cat into the backpack, narrowed her eyes, and thought seriously.
Although she didn't know what the formula of the drug to suppress mania was?
However, I do have some experience in treating mental disorders and purifying dark matter in living organisms.
"Both alien beasts and Zerg contain a large amount of dark matter in their bodies. Naturally, 90% of the illnesses caused by long-term contact with these two are related to dark matter..." Ye Wenya thought seriously for a long time, and her originally nervous mood gradually relaxed.
At least it's much better than when I first heard the words 'Your cat won't live long'.
When it was Bai Xia and Pan Mu's turn to go through security, the process was much faster. It took only three minutes for them to complete the inspection. Since they did not have any medicinal herbs on them, they did not even need to pay port taxes. They left the Lookout Port with Ye Wenya.
The three of them walked on the road and met many classmates who were also wearing silver-white military combat uniforms. Some of them had expressions of relief at surviving the disaster, while others had expressions of grief at having lost their relatives and friends.
Bai Xia glanced at the classmates passing by, sighed inwardly, and turned to look at Ye Wenya beside him: "Student Ye, the instructor said that we will have a week off... Do you plan to go home directly, or stay at school?"
As a military academy, the school requires all students to live on campus during classes, but there is no requirement during holidays. Students can choose where they want to go. The vast majority of students whose families live on the Imperial Capital Star will go home.
Bai Xia and Pan Mu decided to go home and rest early in the morning. This actual combat test had really consumed all their energy.
"I plan to go to the hospital first and then go home." Ye Wenya told the truth and did not intend to hide this matter.
In fact, when she got off the warship, she didn't plan to return to the Ye family immediately. She wasn't ready to get along with the Ye family yet, and wanted to wait for half a month before returning to the Ye family to see how things were going.
But plans couldn't keep up with changes. Since Xiao Hei was in such a bad state, he needed treatment as soon as possible. But to cure an illness, he needed the right herbs. The entire interstellar world was so small, where could she find the right ingredients? If she wanted to cure Xiao Hei on her own while keeping a low profile and not exposing her own abnormality, she would probably need the help of the local tyrants of the Ye family.
"It's okay to go to the hospital. Do you need us to accompany you?" Bai Xia looked at Ye Wenya with some concern, especially the black cat in the girl's arms who was unusually quiet from beginning to end.
Looking at the black cat's deep blue eyes, Bai Xia always had the illusion that the black cat understood what they had said before.
"No need, you guys go back, I can go to the hospital by myself."
Ye Wenya pointed at the hovercars parked outside the port and said, "The rental hovercars are right there. It's very convenient to go to the hospital, and you don't have to accompany me. Let's wait for the school to release the notice in a week and then see you. I'm very happy to be your teammates in this practical assessment."
Ye Wenya and Bai Xia exchanged a few words and were about to say goodbye.
The communicator in my hand suddenly began to beep non-stop. When I disembarked from the battleship, the instructors had temporarily enabled all students to log into the military's intelligent computer network for convenience. This enabled the computer to not only connect to the network but also automatically access basic functions like personal bank accounts. However, to revert to the original computer, I had to return to school.
"Hello, may I ask..."
As soon as Ye Wenya answered the call, a figure with short black hair jumped out of the video call. The other person was obviously much older than Ye Wenya and started to scold her. "Ye Wenya, you damned girl! You just went to participate in a practical assessment. Why did the eldest young master of the Fang family call and cancel the engagement?"
"Your grandfather was so angry about this that he became ill! Get back here right now! Who gave you the courage to offend the Fang family?
Even if you don't like this marriage, don't you still have your cousin?" The middle-aged man was heartbroken during the video call. He really wanted to let his daughter replace Ye Wenya as Fang Shaoyuan's fiancée immediately!
It was not until this moment that Ye Wenya saw clearly that the person in the video call was actually the original owner's second uncle Ye Weimin in her memory!
The author has something to say: PS: The tips of the second incisors have not yet been gradually worn down and shrunk due to chewing. This is the original words in the Sogou Life Guide. The author does not have a cat and can only raise cats online QAQ!
