Chapter 158
As mentioned before, within an hour, they returned to the Mu family's old house.
The federal army that was secretly protecting them nearby was a little hesitant after seeing that they hadn't made any movement for such a long time. But when they saw the two of them coming out of the gate together, they felt relieved and continued to follow them.
The two went to the supermarket, bought some vegetables, and then went home together. Then the kitchen light came on.
Well, today is also a normal day.
Mu's house, in the kitchen.
Mu Ling's hands had just gotten wet when the vegetables were taken away by the man.
Mu Ling said, "Let me wash it."
"It's okay, you go out."
As he spoke, he buried his head in washing the vegetables. After washing the vegetables, he took out the meat and started cutting it.
He was busy there, and Mu Ling was watching him at the door. After watching for a while, she noticed that his ears turned red.
Mu Ling suppressed her smile and asked, "Do you want to wear an apron?"
Xiang Bie still looked at the chopping board and said "hmm".
Mu Ling brought the apron from behind the door. Xiang Bie wanted to wash his hands and take it, but Mu Ling said, "Don't move."
As she spoke, she stood on tiptoe and put the collar of the apron around Xiang Ge's neck.
The moment she approached, they were very close.
Xiang Bie lowered his eyes and looked at her.
Mu Ling glanced at him, then suddenly moved closer.
Xiang Bie paused, his heart seemed to skip a beat and his breathing stopped.
"Brother Xiang..." Mu Ling spoke in a soft voice, a little breathy: "There are only two of us here, why don't we..."
Xiang Bie clenched his fingers suddenly and looked into her eyes: "How about?"
Mu Ling moved closer: "How about..."
Xiang Bie stared at her as she got closer and closer, and his eyes inevitably saw her pink lips.
"You want to change your eyes to blue?"
Category: "..."
Item: “…………”
Mu Ling blinked and asked expectantly, "Is it okay?"
Item: “…………”
Xiang Bie took a deep breath, was silent for a moment, then closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his black eyes turned ice blue.
Mu Ling looked into his eyes quietly for a while, then said, "I haven't looked carefully before."
Xiang Bie said nothing. To him, these eyes were a stain, so he always avoided looking into her eyes for too long.
Mu Ling smiled, then retracted her gaze, walked behind him, and tied the apron belt for Brother Xiang.
Xiang Bie said nothing more and continued to work.
After a while, the simple two dishes and one soup were ready. Mu Ling took the initiative to wipe the table and get the dishes and chopsticks.
"Hmm, delicious!" After taking a bite of the shredded pork, Mu Ling immediately raised her thumb to praise, her emotional value reaching its maximum.
Xiang Bie put the apron aside and said, "As long as you like it."
Mu Ling also put some food into Brother Xiang's bowl and looked into his blue eyes with a smile: "I like it."
She said she liked him just by looking at him, so to round it off, she liked him.
Xiang Bie curled the corners of his mouth and served her a bowl of soup.
After dinner, Mu Ling wanted to wash the dishes, but Xiang Bie stopped her.
Seeing Brother Xiang busy in the kitchen, Mu Ling simply cleaned up the room, mainly covering the furniture with cloths again.
They had originally planned to return in three days. Now that they had obtained the record book and met the aunt, it was natural for them to leave.
Soon they had the house cleaned up, and at two in the afternoon, they went out with the garbage.
Before leaving, Mu Ling looked back at the old house where she and her grandfather had lived for more than ten years, with some melancholy in her eyes.
Xiang Bie stayed beside her quietly.
After a while, Mu Ling finally turned around and said, "Let's go."
-
The return journey is also a circular route, transferring to a starship and then to another starship.
At 4:30 that afternoon, they arrived at Guangshi Star by taking the loop line.
There is no starship that can go directly from Guangshi Star to Shenwang Star. They need to go to the Capital Star first, and then transfer from the Capital Star to Shenwang Star.
It's still early now. The starship to the capital planet won't board until six o'clock.
Seeing that there was still plenty of time, Mu Ling decided to stroll around the area with Brother Xiang.
There is a large shopping mall next to the starship center. The two were about to go there, but at this moment, they heard a leopard roar suddenly from behind.
Mu Ling was stunned, stopped and turned to look.
Xiang Bie also looked over.
Over there, several young men were pushing a large iron cage. The cover of the cage had slipped off, revealing an adult leopard with white fur and black stripes inside.
That should be a snow leopard. The leopard pattern on its body is very beautiful, and its tail is thicker than that of an ordinary leopard.
The snow leopard was now lowering its upper body, making an aggressive posture and growling vigilantly at the people around it.
The starship center was always bustling with people, and when some people saw this, they hurriedly moved away, while others started taking pictures with their laptops.
Among the young men pushing the cage, a young man with red and swollen eyes hurriedly picked up the cover, nodded apologetically to the people around him, and then said to the snow leopard in the cage with a crying voice: "Zhima, be good, don't do this, it makes me uncomfortable..."
As he spoke, he squatted down again, as if he wanted to reach into the cage to touch the snow leopard, but the snow leopard's fur had already stood on end, and when it saw the young man reaching in, it immediately pounced on him and tried to bite him.
The young man's friend immediately pushed him away. The snow leopard missed his attack and squatted beside the cage with its neck shrunk, letting out a sharp roar towards the outside!
"You're going to die! The doctor said the sesame doesn't recognize you now and it will attack you!"
The young man with red and swollen eyes felt even more uncomfortable. He sniffed, wiped his eyes with his sleeve, and together with his friend, covered his eyes with the cloth again.
At this time, the staff of the starship center finally arrived. After the two sides communicated, the staff took the group on board the ship in advance.
The war beasts had all boarded the ship in advance. Seeing them disperse, Mu Ling withdrew her gaze and said to Brother Xiang, "Looks like they are retired war beasts?"
Xiang Bie nodded. They had seen too many retired war beasts, and this was the condition they saw at a glance.
The two didn't say anything and went to the shopping mall next door.
After strolling around for about an hour, the two came back and just in time they were about to board the ship.
After getting on the starship, it took off soon.
The journey from Guangshi Star to Capital Star takes five hours.
Because it was too boring, Mu Ling tilted her head and started to feel sleepy after a while.
When Mu Ling was sleeping, Xiang Bie looked at her. He watched her head nod upwards and downwards, and he waited quietly.
Soon, in less than twenty minutes, Mu Ling's head could no longer support the weight and began to fall to the side.
Fall—fall—fall—
She sided with Xiang Bie!
Xiang Bie's mouth corners slightly raised.
At this moment, the starship shook, and Mu Ling's head tilted and fell towards the window.
Category: "..."
The man frowned and hesitated for a long time. He still leaned forward slightly, stretched out his hand, supported Mu Ling's head, and slowly pressed her head onto his shoulder.
Until Mu Ling was already resting her head on him.
Xiang Bie was finally satisfied and closed his eyes to take a nap.
As a result, at this time...
"roar----"
The roar of a wild beast suddenly came from behind.
Mu Ling, who was originally sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up and sat up straight in an instant. She skillfully comforted him in a half-awake state, "Okay, be good, don't scream anymore."
After she finished speaking and opened her eyes, she found that she was sleeping in the cabin, not in the glass house in the second service area. Apart from Brother Xiang, there were no other animals around her.
Mu Ling yawned and asked Brother Xiang: "What's wrong?"
Before Xiang Bie could answer, the hatch in front opened and three flight attendants walked in. They had obviously heard the roar as well. Two of them rushed to the back while the remaining flight attendant tried to comfort the passengers: "Everyone calm down, everyone calm down. This is the sound coming from the war beast cabin. Don't worry, the war beasts on the starship are under guard and won't escape."
When the passengers heard that it was a war beast, they were indeed relieved. After all, interstellar people have a natural trust in war beasts.
Mu Ling frowned and asked Brother Xiang, "Could it be the snow leopard from before?"
Xiang Bie thought for a moment and said, "The voices are very similar."
After a while, the two flight attendants who had gone there earlier did not come back, so another flight attendant rushed over there with a doctor in a white coat.
After a while, the chief flight attendant also rushed over there.
Mu Ling finally couldn't hold it in any longer and called out to the flight attendant: "Excuse me, what happened?"
The flight attendant put on a standard professional smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Don't worry."
Mu Ling frowned and said, "I'm a veterinarian. Do you need my help?"
The flight attendant was stunned for a moment, and looked at Mu Ling in surprise. After taking a closer look at Mu Ling's appearance, she realized, "You...you are the one from the Beak Zoo..."
Mu Ling said: "I am the director of Beak Zoo, my last name is Mu."
The purser covered his mouth, very surprised, and lowered his voice and said, "It was a retired war beast, an A-level spotted white leopard. It screamed and then suddenly fainted."
Mu Ling immediately stood up: "Take me there."
-
"Doctor, how is Sesame? Is it in danger of death? Doctor, doctor?"
The doctor in a white coat was nervously grasping the snow leopard's thick paws, trying to put the stethoscope into its arms. He said awkwardly, "Actually, I'm a human doctor, not a veterinarian. Please don't rush me."
The young man could only keep his mouth shut.
At this time, the stethoscope was finally put in, and the doctor was about to listen to the heart rate, but suddenly, the unconscious snow leopard twitched violently.
The doctor was so frightened that he quickly pulled his hand out of the cage and took a half step back.
The young man with red and swollen eyes immediately grabbed the railing and shouted inside: "Zhima, Zhima, how are you? Zhima!"
The snow leopard just twitched, its eyes still closed.
The young man was very nervous: "Doctor..."
The doctor could only muster up the courage to put the stethoscope back in place and listen to the heartbeat.
But he had never treated animals before, and he didn't know what a white leopard's heart rate should be. He was a little anxious and said, "I'll make a call."
As he said that, he made a call.
But no one answered the phone.
The doctor was a little anxious, and so were the others.
Saving a life is like putting out a fire, there is no time to wait!
"Here they come!" At this moment, the voice of the flight attendant suddenly came.
Everyone immediately looked over here.
Mu Ling ignored the others and walked straight through the crowd to the cage. She observed the snow leopard inside and said, "Protective suit."
Everyone around was stunned. One of the young men pushing the cage recognized Mu Ling. He was startled at first, then immediately took off his protective suit and gave it to her.
Mu Ling took it and put it on while asking, "How long have you been unconscious?"
The red-eyed young man was still a little confused, and the others quickly replied: "Almost five minutes."
“Any history of heart disease?”
The red-eyed young man hurriedly said, "No, no, Zhima has a physical examination every year and has never had a heart disease."
Mu Ling turned around and said to the doctor, "Please give me a pair of gloves."
The doctor stopped talking and quickly took off a pair of gloves and gave them to her.
Mu Ling put on gloves and asked the young man, "Are there any cases of this disease?"
"Yes, yes, here it is."
The others hurriedly took out the medical records and carefully handed them to Mu Ling.
Mu Ling took it, flipped through two pages, then squatted down, put half of her body into the cage, and began to check the snow leopard's vital signs.
She is different from the doctor. The doctor didn't dare to touch the snow leopard just now. Even though it was unconscious, he was still instinctively afraid.
But the young girl did not hesitate at all. Whether she was fiddling with the snow leopard's body or palpating its surface, she did it very skillfully and quickly.
The doctor was looking over at the patient.
Xiang Bie said at this time: "Let me do it."
When the doctor turned around, he saw a young man with a stern expression. He quickly stepped aside and gave him his seat.
Xiang Bie squatted beside Mu Ling. Mu Ling flipped the snow leopard's eyelids, touched its heart, then opened its mouth to observe whether there was any foreign object in its throat.
After a while, Mu Ling said, "There's nothing else wrong. It's probably stress-induced syncope. Brother Xiang, see if there's any medicine you can use."
Xiang Bie gestured to the doctor, who handed him the medicine box. Xiang Bie took a look and said, "There are only diazepam and trichlorfon."
Mu Ling said: "Dissolve half a diazepam tablet in water and inject 10 micrograms of trioxetine."
Xiang Bie began to remove the tranquilizer tablets and said to the doctor, "Trouble."
The doctor came to his senses and hurriedly helped to give the patient an injection of trioxetine.
The dissolved tranquilizer tablet is about the dose of one bottle cap.
Please pass the bottle cap in first.
Mu Ling took it, pried open the snow leopard's mouth, put her whole hand into the snow leopard's throat, and poured the liquid into it.
The snow leopard seemed to be uncomfortable and twitched again.
Mu Ling reached out her hand, lifted its head, and helped it breathe, making sure it wouldn't choke.
After a while, Mu Ling stretched out her hand again and Xiang Bie handed her the needle.
Mu Ling disinfected the needle first, then injected the solution. She rubbed the injection site and began to coax the snow leopard softly: "It's okay, it's okay."
She asked again: "It's called sesame, right?"
The young men nearby came to their senses and immediately nodded: "Yes!"
Mu Ling said gently, "We are the strongest. It's okay now, right? It doesn't hurt anymore."
As she spoke, she instructed the red-eyed young man, "It's in a half-asleep state right now, so it's partially conscious. Don't make too much noise, or it'll scare it. Just call its name softly, stroke its body gently, and give it a sense of security."
The young man nodded quickly, reached his hand through the railing, and gently stroked the snow leopard.
Mu Ling continued: "It should have fainted due to stress caused by shock. What did you do before?"
The young men looked at each other in bewilderment: "We just wanted to give it some water. As soon as we put the water bowl into the cage, it screamed and then suddenly fainted."
Mu Ling pondered for a moment and said, "Looking at the medical records, its current damage value is 54%. It must have been retired not long ago. It's in the typical condition of a retired war beast in its early stages: timid, aggressive, withdrawn, and emotionally unstable. Let me guess, before you put the water in, it was probably circling in the cage, growling at the people around it, and couldn't stop, right?"
The young people were stunned, then nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, that's it."
Mu Ling said, "In this state, you'd better not get close to it. Even if you want to give it water, you have to wait until it gets tired, stops, and sticks out its tongue, then slowly put the water bowl in, because it needs time to adapt to the environment. It's sick now, and its adaptability is not as strong as before, so you have to give it more time. If you get close to it when it's already panicking, it will easily become stressed and even fall into a coma."
The young people were stunned when they heard this. Then someone turned on the computer and started recording.
Mu Ling asked again, "Don't you have a veterinarian with you? Where are you taking it?"
The red-eyed young man sniffed and said, "Send it to the Capital Planet Zoo. There will be zoo staff to pick it up when we get there, but the journey will take several hours, and there really is no veterinarian accompanying us. We didn't expect anything to happen..."
Mu Ling nodded: "I understand."
In fact, many animals sent to the Beek Zoo do not have veterinarians with them. They are brought in by staff or their owners.
Mu Ling touched the snow leopard's fur again, and soon the medicine took effect. The snow leopard moved its limbs weakly and slowly opened its eyes.
Mu Ling also stepped out of the cage and stood up, saying, "Okay, it's almost time to wake up. Don't move it for now, let it recover. After about an hour or two, feed it. I'm in cabin 12 in front. If you need anything later, just come find me."
Several young men hurriedly thanked her.
Mu Ling said to the snow leopard in the cage, who had just woken up and was still a little confused, "Goodbye, Sesame."
After saying that, she left with Brother Xiang.
The flight attendants and doctors all breathed a sigh of relief, and the survivors packed up their things and left.
When the battleship cabin returned to silence, several young men looked at each other, and one of them sighed, "As expected of the director of Piccolo Zoo..."
"She's really calm..."
“She seems to know everything…”
"Wait, wait, what are you talking about? Who is that girl just now?" The red-eyed young man was shocked and looked at the others in astonishment.
Others: “?”
The others were speechless: "Can't you see? That's Director Mu of the Beek Zoo. Haven't you seen her photo?"
The red-eyed young man rubbed his red and swollen eyes, looked blankly at the direction where Mu Ling left, and said slowly: "I have seen a layer of fog over everyone I see these two days."
Others: “…”
So you really want to cry yourself blind?
The red-eyed young man sniffed again, then looked back at the snow leopard in the cage, its face full of vigilance. "What do you think, can Sesame go to the Beak Zoo?"
The companions frowned and thought for a moment, "That shouldn't be possible. The bar for accepting war beasts at the Piccolo Zoo is very high. War beasts in their war beast nursery must have a damage value of 70 to 80 percent before they can go. Moreover, they say that the space is limited, and they can only accept ten at a time, so many will be eliminated."
The red-eyed young man touched his chin, his blurry eyes moving around in his swollen eyelids: "Didn't she say we could find her if we have any problems?"
As he said this, the red-eyed young man squatted down and said to the snow leopard in the cage who was still unable to stand up: "Zhima, Dad will invite her over later. Whether you can go to the Beek Zoo to enjoy happiness depends on your performance! Try your best!"
