Chapter 51
The early morning sun rises from the east side of the sky.
Wei Li got up early, washed up, changed into work clothes, and went downstairs to the dormitory building.
Someone was already busy in the restaurant. When the waitress, Ai Lin, saw Wei Li coming in, she called out with a smile, "Brother Wei."
Wei Li walked to the front of the bar and took a peek inside: "What are we having for dinner today?"
Before Irene could reply, Chef Denton arrived with two enormous plates filled with fragrant meat buns. "Didn't the director say he loved my buns? I made them again today, this time with braised pork filling. If you don't like buns, we'll also have noodles and rice vermicelli soon."
Wei Li grinned, "This is fine. I love eating buns."
As he spoke, Wei Li took out a small bag and filled it with six meat buns. He then held one in his hand and chewed on it while saying, "I'll take it to Brother Xiang on the way."
Chef Denton was hired by the director for the campus restaurant, but in order to avoid having to do two things at once, Chef Denton was also responsible for the employees' meals. He was a very good cook and could cook a wide variety of dishes, so the director paid him a good salary.
Wei Li took the bun out of the restaurant, chewing it for a while until he arrived at the veterinary station.
Pushing open the door of the veterinary station, Wei Li blurted out "Brother Xiang" just on the tip of his tongue when a barking of a puppy suddenly came from the ward area.
Wei Li paused, looked inside in surprise, and walked in.
When did Brother Xiang start raising a dog in the veterinary station?
Wei Li's face was full of suspicion, but when he walked into the ward area, he fell silent instantly.
In the ward area, the director was sitting in a cage in ward B2. She was looking at the white fox in cage B1. There was a puppy doll under the fox. The fox was clinging to the doll nervously, looking warily at the director next door.
And the headmaster... was barking at the white fox dog.
"Woo-woo-woo—woof—" This is the somewhat spoiled bark of a dog.
"Woo woof—Woo woof—" This is the barking of a dog that is a little angry.
"Woof awooo--woof awooo--" This is the barking of a puppy.
"Woo-woo-woo-woo-" This is the barking of a coquettish dog.
Wei Li: “…”
Wei Li turned around and walked out. Standing in front of the huge operating table in the veterinary station, he raised his hand and slapped himself.
When Xiang Bie came in after washing up, he saw Wei Li slapping himself. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Shh!" Wei Li immediately made a gesture to silence the crowd. He pointed mysteriously inside and whispered, "Listen..."
Xiang Bie glanced in the direction of the ward area, was silent for a moment, and then heard the voice inside.
Xiang Bie raised his eyebrows.
Wei Li's expression was a little dazed: "I knew it. I saw it the last time the headmaster imitated the wolf's howl. Sooner or later, she will become a pervert!"
Category: "..."
Xiang Bie put the toiletries back into the disinfection cabinet and said calmly, "She is coaxing Lingren."
"Who's trying to trick a fox into barking like a dog?" Wei Licai didn't believe it. "Listen, she's even changing her tone a few times. Damn it, how come she's getting better and better at barking?"
Xiang Bie was too lazy to pay attention to Wei Li and went to prepare breakfast for Yue Guang.
Five minutes later, Xiang Bie came in carrying Yue Guang's food bowl, and Wei Li followed him in quietly.
As a result, as soon as the two entered, they were glared at by the headmaster.
Mu Ling had been learning to bark like a dog for quite some time. When she saw someone coming in, she quickly signaled them to go out so as not to disturb the actors!
Xiang Bie paused and stopped, but Wei Li behind him didn't brake in time and stepped directly on the heel of his brother Xiang's shoe.
Wei Li was confused and was about to ask what was going on when Xiang Bie pushed him and took him out.
After leaving, Wei Li was still confused: "Brother Xiang?"
Xiang Bie put down Yue Guang's rice bowl and said, "Wait."
Wei Li didn't know what he was waiting for. Seeing that Brother Xiang was not in a hurry, he handed the bun to him and let him eat first.
When the two were having breakfast outside, they heard various dog barking sounds coming from the ward area from time to time.
Wei Li was numb to the sound until he suddenly said, "Woof."
Category: "..."
Xiang Bie looked at him deeply.
Wei Li touched his nose and said, "No, I'm just curious. Why does the headmaster call you so similarly? Brother Xiang, do I call you similarly?"
"Not like that." Xiang Bie said coldly. After thinking for a moment, he added, "She learned it from watching videos."
Wei Li was stunned: "Huh?"
Xiang Bie said: "I asked for the headphones last night. I think I listened to them for a long time."
Last night, when Xiang Bie brought Mu Ling a blanket, Mu Ling asked him for headphones. When he gave her the headphones, he saw her using her computer to search for videos related to "mastiff".
He went in again last night in the middle of the night and saw that she was asleep with headphones on and her computer was not turned off. She must have listened to the barking of mastiffs of different ages all night.
Since the actor will confuse the puppy doll with a real dog, it is possible that he will also confuse the dog's barking. If there is no other way, this is the only way to lower its defenses.
Xiang Bie ate the bun in two bites, checked the time, and said, "The park is about to open."
Wei Li quickly stood up, wiped his mouth, and went outside.
After a while, Xiang Bie cleaned up the garbage, went to the restaurant again, took some buns and a box of hot milk, and came back to put them on the desk in the veterinary station. He took another look inside the ward area before picking up his work clothes and leaving.
-
"Woo-woo-woo"
In the ward, Mu Ling's mouth was dry from screaming, but she didn't dare to move, because only if she kept the same posture would Lingren not react. If she moved, the communication environment that she had worked so hard to establish would be shattered.
In Ward B1, the white fox had been watching Mu Ling for a long time. It lay on the ground, curled up in a ball, and was very cautious.
Under its chin was the head of a puppy doll. It held the puppy doll firmly between its two front paws, and its pair of purple animal eyes were observing Mu Ling opposite it.
"Woo woof—Woo woof—" Mu Ling called out again.
The white fox didn't quite understand the sound. It licked its mouth, then lowered its head and began to nibble on the puppy doll's ears.
"Woof woof--woof woof!" Mu Ling suddenly yelled fiercely to stop the white fox from being intimate with the doll!
The white fox was startled. It opened its eyes wide and looked at Mu Ling in horror.
"Woo-woo-woo-" When the white fox looked over, Mu Ling's voice became gentle again.
The white fox was confused.
It didn't know what Mu Ling meant, so it lowered its head again, wanting to continue licking the puppy's fur...
"Woof woof—woof woof!" Mu Ling started barking fiercely again.
The white fox was a little scared. It stepped aside and stared at Mu Ling vigilantly!
Mu Ling felt that the time was almost right, and she suddenly cried out softly: "Yingying..."
This is a very standard sound of an adult Mastiff acting coquettishly.
Mu Ling had just used other sounds to build up Lingren's tolerance, and now she was really starting to use her big moves!
Sure enough, upon hearing that voice, the white fox's pupils trembled on the spot!
The white fox looked at the puppy doll, then at Mu Ling, then back at the puppy doll again...
It suddenly stretched its neck and sniffed hard in the direction of Mu Ling.
"Oh oh..." Mu Ling cried again.
The white fox was getting anxious. It circled uncertainly in a semicircle, from one end to the other, observing Mu Ling from another direction. It tilted its head again and again, and finally called out tentatively, "Ga——"
In cage A4, the polar bear was suddenly awakened by the unpleasant duck voice and slowly opened its eyes. With its fuzzy fur on its head, it stood up its neck and looked across the street in confusion.
When it looked up, it saw Mu Ling opposite it.
The white bear was a little confused. It looked at the cage next to it, and then looked at its own paws. It seemed to still remember that Mu Ling was by its side when it slept last night.
The polar bear turned over clumsily, climbed up, and sat at the door of the cage.
"Ga--" the white fox called out again, then took another step closer to Mu Ling, its big eyes full of hesitation and uncertainty.
"Oh oh——" Mu Ling acted coquettishly again.
Yueguang looked at Mu Ling, then at the white fox. After a while, it shouted at Mu Ling: "Roar——"
The voice was too soft and Mu Ling didn't hear it.
The white fox heard it, but ignored it. It continued to approach Mu Ling and continued to sniff her.
"Oh oh——" Mu Ling felt that hope was right before her eyes, and she screamed even more like a mastiff!
Sure enough, the white fox seemed to have finally confirmed it. Its voice suddenly became shrill, its two ears were folded behind its head, its thick tail was wagging vigorously, and a sharp sound came out of its mouth: "Ga-ga-"
It barked excitedly, but did not move forward rashly. Instead, it lay on the ground, turned over, exposing its belly, and rubbed its back against the ground vigorously.
This is actually a typical look for dogs when they are excited.
As expected, he is a fox that grew up with mastiffs!
Mu Ling was very excited. The actress showed her her belly! She really succeeded in the deception!
Mu Ling wrapped her hands in protective clothing, reached into the cage, shook her sleeves, and continued to cry: "Yingying——"
The white fox also cried: "Yingying——"
Moonlight interrupted, "Roar!!"
This time, the white bear's roar suddenly became louder. Mu Ling was startled and turned her head to see that Yueguang had woken up.
When Yue Guang saw Mu Ling looking at her, she picked up the empty bowl on the ground and looked at Mu Ling obediently.
Mu Ling hurriedly whispered, "Wait a moment. We'll have dinner a little later today, just half an hour later. Be good, Moonlight."
The white bear didn't understand what Mu Ling meant. It walked two steps in the cage with the basin in its mouth, then put the basin down and licked the empty basin.
Are you so hungry?
Mu Ling was a little anxious. Thinking that Ling Ren had made some progress and there was still time to feed Yue Guang first, she planned to get up and go outside to get some food.
As a result, as soon as she moved, her arm suddenly tightened!
Mu Ling looked down and saw that the white fox had suddenly grabbed her sleeve and was trying hard to drag her towards it.
But because there was a cage in the middle, Mu Ling couldn't get through, and the white fox couldn't drag her anymore. Finally, the white fox simply sat down, pressed Mu Ling's arms with its body, hugged her tightly, and then bared its teeth, as if defending its sovereignty, looking at the polar bear opposite.
The polar bear was enraged and bared its teeth at the white fox.
One second later...
“Ga ga ga!!!”
“Roar, roar, roar!!!”
The two sudden roars scared Mu Ling!
No, why are we arguing? What happened?
Mu Ling hurriedly tried to stop the fight: "Lingren, Lingren, stop yelling, Lingren!"
"Moonlight, be good, Moonlight, stop banging the cage. Okay, okay, let's eat, let's eat right away!"
Mu Ling wanted to go outside to get some food, but she couldn't move. She was in a panic and simply turned on her computer and called Brother Xiang.
Brother Xiang’s phone showed as turned off, so Mu Ling had no choice but to call Brother Wei again.
The communication was quickly connected, and Mu Ling panicked and said to the other end: "Brother Wei, please come to the veterinary station quickly and save his life!"
Wei Li was originally wiping his shuttle bus. Upon hearing this, he hung up the phone and ran to the veterinary station.
Xiang Bie had just finished feeding the animals in the animal dormitories and was coming over when he saw Wei Li running. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wei Li's face turned pale: "Director, call for help!"
Xiang Bie's face darkened and he rushed straight to the veterinary station!
After the two men arrived at the veterinary station, they took out tranquilizer guns. They walked into the ward area one after the other with serious expressions.
As soon as I entered, I heard a mixed roar from inside.
"Roar!!!" The voice of moonlight.
"Ga!!!" the actor's voice.
"Stop arguing, stop arguing, don't quarrel over me anymore!"
Category: "..."
Wei Li: “…”
Wei Li stared at Brother Xiang blankly: "Is this the headmaster's voice?"
Xiang Bie didn't say anything. He walked around the corner, entered the ward area, and saw the scene inside...
Mu Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Brother Xiang and Brother Wei finally arrived. "Brother Xiang, Brother Wei, hurry up, get Moonlight's food! Moonlight is starving and wants to eat people! Go get its food! I wanted to get it, but Lingren wouldn't let me go, and then they started quarreling! No matter how much I tried to persuade them, they wouldn't stop!"
Category: "..."
Wei Li: “…”
Xiang Bie could see that Mu Ling was really panicked. He took a deep breath, put away the anesthetic gun, and glanced at Wei Li.
Wei Li immediately went outside to get Yue Guang's food bowl. After bringing it in, he carefully walked to the outside of Yue Guang's cage and placed the food bowl at an angle into the cage.
"Roar! Roar!" Moonlight didn't eat. She continued to hit the railing with her claws, angrily scolding the white fox opposite.
The white fox clung even tighter to Mu Ling's arm, as if it was afraid of losing "it" again. Its cries became even sharper and more shrill, filled with fear: "Ga! Ga!"
Wei Li's scalp tingled when he heard this: "No, Headmaster, I don't eat moonlight."
Mu Ling was sweating with anxiety: "What should I do?"
Wei Li asked again: "What on earth did you do?"
Mu Ling: “…”
Mu Ling suddenly felt guilty. After struggling for a long time, she finally told the truth, "This, this isn't... I think Lingren is out of his mind now. If he can't even tell the difference between a toy dog and a real dog, then he probably can't tell the difference between me and Xiaozhong... Oh, Xiaozhong is his good friend who grew up with him, a mastiff... Actually, I originally wanted to pretend to be his master, but I only learned a few commands from Lieutenant Colonel Song, and I don't understand their military habits. I definitely can't imitate them now. After thinking about it, it's easier to pretend to be a mastiff, so I lied to Lingren and said I was Xiaozhong..."
Category: "..."
Wei Li: “…”
Wei Liren was confused. So this was why the director barked the dog so early in the morning? Was she pretending to be a dog to trick the fox?
He asked, “What happened next?”
Mu Ling was pleasantly surprised. "Later, I succeeded. The actor actually believed me. Look, it didn't even let me go!"
Wei Li looked at the pitiful white fox, clinging to the director's arm like a lifeline, and was a little unsure of what to say: "So now, Director, you've become the Mastiff's replacement?"
Mu Ling: “…”
Category: "..."
Mu Ling looked at Brother Wei in confusion: "...Ah?"
I don't know why, but when the word "stand-in" comes out, it suddenly feels a bit strange...
Wei Li pointed at the moonlight again: "What happened to the moonlight?"
Mu Ling asked, "Maybe Yue Guang was woken up by us, and she's a little angry?"
"But it doesn't look like it's angry about being woken up..." Wei Li said slowly, "It seems to be jealous..."
Mu Ling: “…”
Wei Li looked at Mu Ling deeply again, and then said sarcastically: "Some people pretend to be online dating anchors and substitute lovers at the same time. This is a big problem..."
Mu Ling: “…”
No, if it really doesn't work, why don't we fire Brother Wei?
What on earth is Brother Wei talking about?
Mu Ling didn't have time to argue with Brother Wei. She was almost going crazy. She said, "You should go out first. They seem to be more stressed out here."
Because there were suddenly more people in the ward area, both the white fox and the white bear became very nervous.
Especially in the moonlight, Wei Li was standing outside its cage, which made the sound of it knocking on the door louder.
And the actor was also very uncomfortable. His nails began to dig into her arms and his body was shaking violently.
Xiang Bie and Wei Li left the ward area again. After the ward area became quiet again, White Bear and White Fox lowered their voices a little.
Mu Ling called out at this time: "Moonlight, eat."
Yueguang didn't want to eat and wanted to shout, but Mu Ling raised her voice: "Yueguang, eat, eat, eat quickly, Yueguang, eat!"
The constant urging for food forced White Bear to stop shouting...
In the end, it obeyed the call for food, went to the food bowl obediently, and took a bite of meat.
Mu Ling then looked at Ling Ren again. Because Ling Ren was in a worse condition, her voice became softer. "Ling Ren, honey, can I come in and hold you? It's not very convenient to be separated like this."
Mu Ling pulled her hand back, and the white fox immediately hugged her even tighter, making anxious "ga ga" sounds in its throat, as if it was afraid that Mu Ling would leave and never come back...
But this time Mu Ling did not show any mercy. She pulled her hand back in one go, and then before the white fox screamed, she quickly went around to the main door, opened the cage and got in.
Seeing her come in, the white fox was still startled and couldn't help but step back.
Mu Ling squatted down, pulled up her protective suit, waved at it, and made a mastiff sound: "Yingying, yingying..."
This time, the deceived white fox immediately rushed over!
Mu Ling hugged it tightly. The fox's heavy body curled up in her arms, humming non-stop: "Boo, boo, boo——"
“Quack, quack—”
It made several different calls, which showed that it was very excited and a single call could not express its complex mood.
Mu Ling picked up the white fox and stood up. Thanks to Ta Yun, she could now carry a 20-jin giant eagle with one hand, so carrying a fox weighing more than ten kilograms was no problem at all.
Mu Ling was like coaxing a child, bouncing back and forth in the cage while holding the white fox, coaxing it as she walked: "Don't be afraid anymore, don't be afraid anymore, we Lingren are not afraid anymore..."
The moonlight on the opposite side ate half a bowl of rice and couldn't eat any more. It sat in front of the rice bowl, looking at this side with its dark eyes.
Mu Ling: “…”
Mu Ling felt guilty about Yue Guang staring at her, so she carried Ling Ren out of the cage and walked to the front of Yue Guang's cage, then coaxed her, "Yue Guang, continue eating, be good."
The urging for food made White Bear lower his head and continue eating.
But after finishing a bowl of rice, the white bear picked up the teddy bear on the ground, turned around and sat down in the corner.
Huh?
Moonlight didn't hold the bowl in his mouth after eating this time...
Mu Ling saw that Yue Guang seemed to have returned to his previous autism. After returning to the corner, he turned his head towards the corner and curled up into a ball.
This is really angry.
Mu Ling felt somewhat helpless. She sat outside the cage, gently soothing Ling Ren with her hands while looking into the cage. She called out, "Moonlight, Ling Ren is sick. Sister can't just ignore him. If I don't, he might die, just like Moonlight. If I hadn't ignored Moonlight before, Moonlight might have died too, right?"
Because of hearing his own name frequently, the tips of the white bear's ears twitched slightly.
Mu Ling called out again, "Yue Guang, can you come here for a moment? Come over here and sit next to me."
Moonlight understood the command "come here," but it did not move.
"Moonlight? Our most lovely, most adorable Moonlight in the world, my sister's favorite Moonlight, come and keep me company, okay?"
Because he called out his name again and said "I like it", the white bear with a pointed mouth finally raised his head, then took the teddy bear in his mouth and walked two steps outside.
Mu Ling smiled and continued to call: "Come."
The white bear finally sat next to Mu Ling, just like when they slept last night. There was only a row of railings between them. He stuck his nose out from the gap in the railings and sniffed Mu Ling's arm.
Mu Ling freed one hand to touch its nose.
Because one of his hands was missing, Ling Ren suddenly felt less secure. The white fox immediately pushed hard into Mu Ling's arms and buried its head in her armpits.
Mu Ling: “…”
This posture is a bit presumptuous...
But it was difficult to adjust, so Mu Ling could only hold Ling Ren with one hand and pat its back, and touch the white bear with the other hand to soothe its emotions.
The ward area, which had been noisy all morning, finally quieted down. Mu Ling breathed a sigh of relief. She sighed softly and said with heartfelt emotion, "It's really not easy for a family with two children..."
And just when Mu Ling was still unable to take care of the baby.
On the other side of the galaxy, the federal capital.
Chai Yunyue made dozens of calls, but the phone number of Brother Xiang from last night was still turned off.
"Dad, you are my real dad!" Chai Yunyue was cursing and was about to change the computer number and dial again when there was a knock on the office door.
Chai Yunyue could only put down the laptop and shouted, "Come in."
The office door opened, and the subordinate walked in respectfully: "Director, the information you asked me to prepare about the terrorist attack on Xuangu Star a year ago has been collected."
A subordinate placed a document on the table. Chai Yunyue took it and looked at it. At the end, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "There's been no news of that traitor since then?"
The subordinate nodded and said, "The Security Bureau has been looking for him but they haven't found him. He must have changed his identity."
Chai Yunyue put down the information and asked: "Where's that mastiff? It's such a big target, but you can't find it?"
The subordinate shook his head. "Mastiffs aren't a rare breed, and there are plenty of them on the black market, so they're not easy to find. However, I did find out something else..."
"What's up?"
The subordinate took out another document.
Chai Yunyue opened it and took a look, then frowned. "God King Star, Major Chang Jing, report that there are a large number of primary and intermediate infected beasts in the back mountain of the Beek Jungle on God King Star?"
The subordinate said, "This information was sent to the military headquarters just a few days ago. Because it was a routine mountain patrol report, it was almost sealed. I also stumbled across it when I was investigating the follow-up of the Xuangu Star incident. After the rebels committed crimes on Xuangu Star, they fled in the direction of Shenwang Star. Although there is no direct evidence to prove that they went to Shenwang Star, in less than a year, a large number of strange beasts suddenly appeared in the largest primitive jungle of Shenwang Star. This doesn't seem like a coincidence..."
The subordinate continued, "The Major Chang above also wrote that the Divine King Star garrison organizes a mountain clearing operation every year. Last year, when the mountain was cleared, there were only seven or eight initially infected alien beasts on the entire mountain, which was a normal ratio. But this year, the number has suddenly increased by dozens of times. How could there be so many alien beasts in just one year? I suspect it's very likely that they are being raised by humans!"
Chai Yunyue frowned and read the two documents again, then nodded after a while: "Well done, let's go and see the president."
The subordinate was stunned: "Does this case require the president's personal attention?"
“It wasn’t necessary…”
But, this is the clue given to him by Brother Xiang, and he must show it off to the president!
When he thought of Brother Xiang, Chai Yunyue suddenly felt proud!
Everyone said that Brother Xiang was no good, and that he hid himself because he knew he was incompetent and was acting like a coward. But how could Brother Xiang be incompetent!
Last night, Brother Xiang suddenly called him, and he felt something was wrong, especially when Brother Xiang inexplicably asked about Xuan Gu Xing...
Sure enough, Brother Xiang was clearly deliberately reminding him to investigate Xuan Gu Star!
Look what he found out. The next planet where the rebels will commit crimes is very likely to be the God King Planet!
Such a great achievement, but Brother Xiang just gave it to him for free!
Chai Yunyue laughed again. He knew that his brother Xiang was far-sighted. Even though he was not in the bureau, he knew everything about the political and military situation in the federation and was omnipotent.
He already knew the clues that the military had not yet discovered. Brother Xiang is really very powerful!
