It's important to know that the key storage warehouse for the stolen reagents was located near the biological laboratory.
Professor Lin's animal-repelling medicine must have been heavily promoted in this area recently.
But how did this spore manage to break in despite the effects of the medicine?
Upon being asked, the roe deer's big eyes immediately lit up with strong agreement, and it nodded its head vigorously: [Yes, yes, yes! You noticed too?]
[Lately, this place has been acting strange. There's always this... this weird smell that makes my nose itch and my heart race!]
It continued, looking aggrieved, "My rabbit friend, my little squirrel brother, and my little deer sister who used to come to drink water—they're all gone!"
[Even my favorite ice rink, this shiny flat area, has no other roe deer to play with!]
At this point, the roe deer suddenly puffed out its furry chest, its tone carrying a stubborn, almost foolish tone: "But... but the more it's like this, the more I want to understand!"
Why is everyone stopping? Why do I want to turn and run away as soon as I get close? This isn't right!
It looked at the ice surface, its eyes filled with the stubbornness of a bystander: [So, I... I took a deep breath, held it! And then, steeling myself, I charged in!]
[Although my nose was itchy and my heart was pounding, look, I've successfully arrived at the accident scene... oh no, I mean, I've investigated the scene!]
Xia Zhining suddenly felt both heartbroken and amused, and almost wanted to light a candle for Professor Lin.
This biology professor meticulously planned and researched such a powerful animal-repelling drug, but he never anticipated that such an unreasonable creature as the "stubborn roe deer" would exist in the world!
It's like building an impregnable fortress, only to have a silly roe deer, thinking "I just want to take a look," sneak in through the front gate!
How can this not be considered a case of feigning foolishness with great wisdom?
The roe deer was still rambling on to itself when it dropped an even bigger bombshell: "And...and I also want to see if the red fox that appeared here that night, with all four paws wearing tiny shoes, will ever show up again?"
"A red fox wearing shoes?" Xia Zhining's nerves tensed instantly, and she subconsciously lowered her voice.
They were afraid of scaring away this crucial clue that had fallen from the sky.
[Yes!] Seeing that Xia Zhining was interested in what he said, the roe deer became even more enthusiastic. [That red fox was wearing the same shoes as you, and it walked with such swagger!]
[Most importantly, it didn't leave any paw prints on the ground! I think that's amazing!]
As the roe deer spoke, it looked enviously at its own slippery hooves, its mind taking a peculiar turn: [If I could wear such suitable shoes, would I stop slipping on the ice?]
[I've always wanted to ask it, where did they get these shoes from? How did they find a pair that fits my size so perfectly...?]
The fox is wearing shoes!
There weren't even any claw marks left on the ground!
Xia Zhining quickly steered the little guy, whose thoughts were about to drift off to "Brother Roe Deer Talks Fashion," back to the main topic.
She asked eagerly, "We'll talk about that later!"
"Honey, think carefully first. Which direction did that red fox come from? And which direction did it go afterward?"
Upon hearing this, the roe deer immediately straightened its neck, put on a serious "I'll take care of this" expression, and looked smart for a full three seconds.
Its little head first turned to the left: [Hmm...it seems to be from this side...]
But before it could finish speaking, it hesitated, its head snapping to the right: [No, no... it seems to have floated over from that direction again!]
