Chapter 149
Although the monster tide incident on Nurha Star has passed, the subsequent renovation and reconstruction, as well as the final inspection and investigation, are still not completed.
All these tasks are under the responsibility of the Logistics Department.
Lieutenant Bailey is affiliated with the Federal Logistics Department. Since she was transferred from the Beast Tamer Army to the regular army three years ago, she has worked in several departments, been to local planets, and served as a support force.
The busy work seemed to help her adapt to the life after the job change more quickly, although she did not like this kind of life.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Lieutenant Bailey returned to her temporary dormitory after finishing a meeting with the person in charge of Nurha Star, feeling extremely exhausted.
But even though she was so tired, she didn't want to sleep at all.
Long-term insomnia and worsening illness have made her unable to concentrate recently.
She missed her sleeping pills terribly, but the military doctor no longer allowed her to take them.
I lay in bed for half an hour.
Just as she was about to get up and go downstairs to the infirmary, her roommate came back.
Seeing her there, her roommate casually asked, "Are you still asleep?"
They were not very familiar with each other. After all, Lieutenant Bailey had only been transferred to the Logistics Department for three months, while this female lieutenant had always been in the Logistics Department.
"I'm going to sleep now." Lieutenant Bailey didn't want anyone to know about her illness. She had a hereditary mental illness, which she inherited from her mother. She used to think she was not sick, but three years ago, her war beast Feifan was injured and retired. Overnight, the source of the disease that had been dormant for more than 30 years seemed to suddenly erupt.
She often suffered from neurasthenia, anxiety, and insomnia, which was why she kept changing jobs...
"Then I'll speak quietly so as not to disturb you." The colleague fiddled with his computer and began looking around for headphones.
Lieutenant Bailey looked at her computer and frowned. She asked, "Is this a personal computer?"
During the mission, doesn't the personal computer have to be handed in?
The colleague looked at her and said hurriedly, "I applied for it. I want to video chat with my son tonight and I need to use it for half an hour!"
Lieutenant Bailey pursed her lips and said nothing, so her colleague also fell silent and continued looking for the headphones.
Finally found the headphones, my colleague clicked on the link and then opened a video.
The next second, the huge sound of video filled the entire dormitory.
"Hi, everyone. This is Piccolo Zoo. Today I'm going to take a photo of our Feifan. Feifan has recently changed his career and become a healer..."
The video was paused after just two sentences. My colleague said embarrassedly: "Sorry, sorry, my headphones seem to be broken. Forget it, I'll go outside."
The colleague was about to leave after saying this.
Lieutenant Bailey suddenly sat up, stared at his colleague, and asked, "What was that just now?"
My colleague said awkwardly, "My son is still doing his homework. He asked me to wait for him for ten minutes. I can't watch some videos."
"I mean..." Lieutenant Bailey gripped the sheets of the single bed with her fingers, frowning tightly. "What was that video just now?"
"This? The video of Piccolo Zoo, don't you know? No, I heard that your former war beast is in this zoo, right?"
Yes, Lieutenant Bailey’s extraordinary purple electric baboon is in this zoo.
Half a year ago, when she was still in the support department, she was clearing out strange beasts on Planet 917 when she suddenly received a notice from her superiors saying that her son Feifan had disappeared in Changshan Zoo.
She immediately took leave and rushed to Siwan Star, but when she got there, the situation had not changed. According to surveillance, poachers had dug up the protective net of Changshan Zoo, causing Feifan to accidentally run away.
Siwanxing tried its best to find Feifan, but there was no news.
During that time, Lieutenant Bailey clearly felt that her condition had worsened. She began to become dependent on drugs and could not sleep without sleeping pills.
She returned to the army and underwent a psychiatric evaluation. She felt that she might not be able to serve again and wanted to be discharged.
But at this time, her superior found her again and said that Feifan had been found.
Feifan suddenly appeared on the streets of the city and was finally taken back by local military police and zoo staff.
Knowing that Feifan was fine, Lieutenant Bailey finally breathed a sigh of relief and did not submit a mental evaluation...
But not long after, Director Tian of Changshan Zoo called her again and asked if she agreed to send Feifan back to the Beek Zoo.
Although Director Tian said that the Beek Zoo had reopened and the new Director Mu was a very nice person and Feifan was also very close to Director Mu, Lieutenant Bailey felt that Director Mu must be dissatisfied with the trouble Feifan had caused and wanted to get rid of this burden.
Her heart was filled with sorrow and pain, and finally, she reluctantly agreed to transfer to Feifan.
Before Feifan went to Changshan Zoo, he had been to Beak Zoo. Lieutenant Bailey still remembered Beak Zoo, which was a large wildlife park. It wasn't a big deal, really. At most, Feifan could just go back to his original life...
Even though she thought so, there was still a thorn in Lieutenant Bailey's heart. This thorn grew deeper and deeper as time went by, and her condition worsened again.
Until one day, a wave of strange beasts broke out on Nurha Star, and her superiors told her that Nurha Star was short of war beasts, and Piccolo Zoo was called upon to send some of the war beasts to the front line for support. Her son Feifan would also go, and asked her if she agreed.
Lieutenant Bailey agreed without thinking because she thought the support troops would also go to Nurha Star for support, and she thought she could meet Feifan.
However, the support troops did go, but their troops were the third batch to go. By the time she arrived at Nurha Star, those retired war beasts had already left.
The ups and downs of her emotions made her condition worse again. This time, the mental evaluation could not be concealed. However, her condition was not serious enough to force her to retire. After all, these days, everyone has some mental illness.
Eventually, she was transferred to the logistics department.
Lieutenant Bailey actually felt that she would not be able to stay in the logistics department for long. When her work was affected by illness, she would be forced to retire.
She felt that this day would come soon...
But what did she hear just now?
What is that video?
A colleague looked at Lieutenant Bailey's dazed look and was a little surprised: "You, you haven't seen the video of Beak's Zoo, right? Who doesn't know Beak's Zoo now?"
Lieutenant Bailey looked at the other person with a dazed look on his face: "I don't have a light brain."
colleague:"……"
My colleagues were speechless. People in the logistics department all apply for a computer to call home every few days. Logistics is not like the front line, there is no confidentiality, and the management of private computers is not very strict.
Maybe it was because Lieutenant Bailey was always so cold and no one dared to talk to her, so no one told her.
My colleague is an older woman. She sighed and said, "Just fill in a random reason and apply to the administrator. Many people apply two or three times a week. Your war beasts are all in the Beak Zoo, and you haven't even watched any videos of the Beak Zoo. You really don't care about your war beasts."
Her colleagues were unaware that Lieutenant Bailey had been battling mental illness for the past few years, and they didn't realize that it wasn't that she wasn't paying attention. She was just like most people with mental illness, immersing herself in her own world...
Seeing that Lieutenant Bailey was silent again, the colleague finally shared the video and showed it to her, but he still muttered, "The videos shot by the director of the Beak Zoo are of very high quality. You can check to see if there are any videos of your war beasts. Have you really never seen them?"
Lieutenant Bailey did not answer her colleague as she was already absorbed in the video in front of her.
In the video, a lush glass house simulating a forest environment is being filmed. There are two animals in the glass house, a purple electric baboon and an anteater.
The two animals seemed unaware of what was happening outside. They were interacting with each other, and the purple electric baboon was patiently stroking the anteater's pointed head.
The female voice filming the video then rang out again: "Let's take a sneak peek at Teacher Feifan's healing session. This Ant-Monster is called Warrior, and he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder. Feifan is a therapist specially selected by our park for Warrior. His mission is to slowly rescue the Ant-Monster from his depression."
"As you can see, they're very close now. Extraordinary Healing has only been going on for less than a week, and the Ant-Monster has already developed a clear sense of dependence on it. Let's go in and take a look."
As she spoke, the girl opened the glass door. Upon hearing the sound, the Anteater, which had been relaxed, was suddenly shocked and hid behind a tree.
The girl didn't go in. She stood at the door, then squatted down and asked softly, "Fei Fan, how was the treatment today?"
When the purple electric baboon heard the other party's voice, it immediately ran out with its butt sticking up.
As the horse's face got closer and closer to the camera, Lieutenant Bailey's heart started beating very fast.
The purple electric baboon sniffed the visitor docilely. The visitor reached out, touched its fur, and then took out freeze-dried food to feed it.
The purple electric baboon opened its mouth and ate the freeze-dried food, then raised its hands and asked the other party to hug it.
The girl picked it up, held its butt, and coaxed it: "Our Feifan has been working hard recently and has shared a lot of work with me. How can I thank you? I made Feifan's favorite fruit rice. Can we eat it later?"
The purple electric baboon didn't know what the girl was talking about. It just curled up obediently in the girl's arms, holding her tightly with both hands.
The video is not long and ends in less than two minutes.
But even after the video ended, Lieutenant Bailey was still a little dazed.
"Ding ding, ding ding." At this time, my colleague's son called me via video.
A colleague glanced at Lieutenant Bailey and felt that something was wrong with her. He asked worriedly, "You..."
Lieutenant Bailey turned and ran out of the dormitory without saying a word.
colleague:"……"
Lieutenant Bailey rushed all the way to the management office on the first floor and said to the administrator nervously, "I, I want to apply for a computer."
The administrator looked at her, handed her the tablet, and said, "Sign it."
Lieutenant Bailey signed it, and soon she got her own computer.
"Half an hour." The administrator reminded.
Lieutenant Bailey said "hmm", sat down on the bench in the corridor, and turned on the phone with shaking hands.
The optical computer started up quickly, and when the desktop loaded, she immediately entered the star network.
However, before he could enter the name of Piccolo Zoo, a group chat box suddenly popped up above him.
A loving family in the garden?
What's this?
Lieutenant Bailey didn't care and continued searching, but there were people talking in the group all the time, and because the Do Not Disturb function was not set, the box kept popping up.
Lieutenant Bailey clicked on it with some annoyance, but the next second, she was stunned.
The names of the people in this group...
Colonel? Lieutenant Colonel? And the Commander?
What kind of group is this? When did she join this work group?
What kind of group is this?
Just at this moment, a man named "Colonel Ming" asked the question in her mind.
Below, someone immediately responded to “Colonel Ming”.
Ms. Fang: [Welcome, welcome @Colonel Ming, welcome @Lieutenant Bailey, this is the Beak Zoo parent group.]
Parents group?
Lieutenant Bailey frowned.
Colonel Ming: [What parent group?]
Colonel Val: [@Colonel Ming, is your war beast at the Beak Zoo? What's its name?]
Colonel Ming: […Yes, yes, call me Nini.]
Lieutenant Herman: [@Colonel Ming, wow, you're Nini's master. Welcome, I'm the master of Lightning the Swift Fire Leopard.]
Colonel Yin: [@Colonel Ming, I am the owner of Duying Tayun, welcome.]
Lieutenant Colonel Song: [@Ming Shangqiu, I am the master of Mo Tou Shi Pi Mi, welcome, @Yin Daxiao, you are online?]
Senior Colonel Yin: [I'm on a warship, about to go to another planet to carry out a mission. I can use the optical computer temporarily.]
Lieutenant General Mylo: [@Colonel Yin, hurry up and go see your Tayun! ]
Senior Colonel Yin: [@Lieutenant General Mylo, I'm already watching it! It's still a few hours away, no rush, I can finish it!]
Lieutenant Bailey watched their conversation and realized that the war beast owners in the Piccolo Zoo had another group.
How long has it been since she last used her computer? She only realized it today...
Lieutenant Bailey also typed: [My war beast is called Feifan, a purple electric baboon. Do you... know Feifan?]
Ms. Fang: [@Lieutenant Bailey!!! You're such an extraordinary host! Haha, I finally waited for you!]
Lieutenant Bailey was stunned: [What happened?]
Lieutenant General Val: [@Lieutenant Bailey, nothing much, it's just that Feifan has been back at the zoo for a few months. We discussed this before. @Teacher Xiangbie, why didn't you join the group? Everyone's been waiting for you for a long time.]
Lieutenant Herman: [@Teacher Xiang Bie said last time that everything needs to be reviewed.]
Commander Duan: [I guess Lieutenant @Bailey's work department is quite sensitive, so it hasn't been approved yet.]
Lieutenant Colonel Song: [It's okay, it's okay. I'm glad you're here. Welcome two new members.]
Lieutenant General Milo: [As a greeting gift, @Lieutenant Bailey, @Colonel Ming, please open the group photo album. There are gifts for you.]
Lieutenant Bailey clicked on the group photo album, confused.
Then she saw that there were many individual albums in the group album. Each album had the name of a war beast. Lieutenant Bailey soon saw Feifan's name in the middle.
The cover photo is also extraordinary.
After a pause, Lieutenant Bailey quickly clicked in.
I saw that the album was filled with densely packed photos.
She clicked on the first photo. In the photo, Feifan was playing in the water with a red mammoth. The red mammoth raised its trunk and sprayed water towards the sky. Drops of water fell down, and Feifan below happened to catch the water droplets with his hands. The picture looked so beautiful.
The person who uploaded this photo is called Commander Duan.
Lieutenant Bailey clicked on the next one.
The next picture shows Feifan climbing onto the back of a sub-endangered rhinoceros. There are two rhinoceros baboons on top of the rhinoceros's head. The rhinoceros baboons don't seem to be afraid of the baboons. They are staying well, and Feifan doesn't harass them. They are just enjoying themselves and getting close to a rhinoceros.
The person who uploaded this photo is General Wen.
Later, there was a photo of Feifan coaxing Silver Snow Bear to sleep, and the uploader was Lieutenant General Milo...
There is a photo of Feifan squeezed in between three ear-horned tigers, and the person who uploaded it is Ms. Fang...
Looking at the photos one by one, Lieutenant Bailey felt as if she had also spent the past six months with Feifan.
My heart suddenly felt very sad.
Lieutenant Bailey sniffed and typed: [I see. There are forty-six photos in total. Thank you everyone. I like this gift very much.]
Lieutenant Bailey: [I like you guys, too.]
Ms. Fang: [@Lieutenant Bailey, you're welcome.]
Lieutenant Colonel Song: [@Lieutenant Bailey, it's just a matter of convenience.]
Commander Duan: [@Lieutenant Bailey, as long as you like it.]
Colonel Ming: [There are only two photos of Nini...]
Others: [……]
No, your Nini has only been here for a few days, how can she have so much material? Just make do with it.
