Chapter 2623 Fantastic Beasts in the Garden 29
Inside the zoo's medical room.
Su Xiao performed a full set of basic examinations on the unconscious little white lion lying on the examination table, listening to its heart rate, measuring its temperature, and palpating its abdomen.
But physiological indicators show that they are all very normal, and it can even be said that they are as healthy as they can be.
But the little white lion just closed its eyes and did not respond to any external touch.
Lidya Su frowned and took off his stethoscope, “Strange… This doesn’t look like being sick or injured, why would he suddenly faint?”
Bai Rendong stood aside, pursed his lips, his eyes filled with unconcealable worry and anxiety.
At this time, the half-closed door of the medical room was pushed open a crack.
A crimson fox head poked its head in. It was Hu Caicai.
There were other furry animals crowded behind it, all guarding outside the door anxiously, unwilling to leave.
Hu Caicai looked at Su Xiao with a frown on his face, Bai Rending with a worried look on his face, and then looked at the little white lion sleeping on the stage. After hesitating for a moment, she squeezed in lightly.
It ignored Su Xiao's slightly surprised look, jumped onto the empty examination bed, walked to the little white lion, stretched out its front paws and placed them on the little white lion's chest, and closed its eyes.
The big fluffy tail swayed gently behind it from time to time, and it looked... really like that.
Lidya Su: “……?”
She pushed her glasses up subconsciously.
Well, after the little white lion, the fox can also see a doctor.
Hu Caicai had a guess in her mind. She raised her beautiful fox head and turned it to make a few fox calls towards the Tiger Valley outside the door.
When Hu Gu heard that the beautiful fox had a solution, he was cheered up. He turned around and let out a tiger roar towards the animals huddled together in the corridor, looking worried.
The animals slowly dispersed, looking back every few steps.
Then, Hu Gu growled impatiently at the staff members nearby, and patted the ground with his paws, signaling them to stay away.
Everyone: "..."
Being chased by a tiger is an experience that can only be compared to others.
But seeing the tiger's anxious look, they could only take a few steps back temporarily.
Bai Rendong vaguely guessed something.
He suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind and said to Su Xiao and other staff members: "Doctor Su, thank you for your hard work. Let's stop here for now. Everyone go out and rest for a while. Here... I'll watch. If there is any need, I will call you."
Su Xiao packed up his equipment and left the medical room with the others, closing the door.
Outside the corridor, Qiao Mai watched as the animals obediently walked back to their respective enclosures, not even needing the help of their keepers. He couldn't help but touch Amu next to him and whispered, "Brother Mu, do you feel... that the animals in our zoo are..."
"Animals are very smart, aren't they?" Amu continued. "And they're cute too."
This kind of thing is a spectacle no matter where it happens.
But it just happened in Zhenyang Zoo. They lived with these animals day and night, and were so surprised that they seemed to... get used to it.
"yes……"
Qiao Mai also reacted.
The night breeze feels so comfortable on my body. Looking at the animals returning, I suddenly feel that, except for the occasional heart-pounding moments like tonight, being able to work with so many smart and cute animals is the dream job I have always dreamed of.
She couldn't help but smile and said to Amu, "Brother Mu, I'm going back to rest first. Good night."
"Late... huh?"
Amu was about to respond when he caught a glimpse of a brightly colored parrot at the corner of the corridor behind Qiao Mai, stealthily burying its head in its wings, trying to pretend it didn't exist.
Amu's face immediately turned black, "Brother Dao, you're eavesdropping again!"
Dao Ge, who was caught on the spot, was so frightened that he trembled and almost fell off the railing. He quickly buried his head deeper, covered his face with his wings, and shouted in a hoarse voice that he was trying to cover up his crime.
"Ga! Dao Ge, I didn't hear you! Amu, it feels so good!"
Just as Qiao Mai was about to turn around and leave, he said "Huh?" in confusion.
Amu blushed, "Go back to your birdhouse! If you keep imitating me, there will be no snack for you at dawn!"
When Daoge heard that he was going to run out of food, he immediately flapped his wings and flew away, muttering in dissatisfaction: "Stingy! Daoge has done a great job! Eight more tons!"
Inside the medical room, Bai Rendong closed the door tightly.
Suddenly, only one man, one lion and one fox were left in the room.
Bai Rendong turned around and looked at Hu Caicai. After a few seconds of silence, he asked softly, "You can also transform into a human form like Jinchen, right?"
Hu Caicai shook her fluffy tail and nodded.
A soft red light flashed by.
Bai Rending suddenly thought of something and pulled a clean disinfected blanket from the shelf next to him. After all, every time Jinchen transformed, it was... um.
But the red fox on the examination bed disappeared, replaced by a handsome young man in bright red clothes.
Bai Rendong: “?”
His hand holding the blanket stopped in mid-air, his expression blank.
Hu Caicai was stunned for a moment when she saw the blanket in his hand, "I... am not cold." Besides, he has clothes.
Bai Rendong: “…”
He silently retracted the blanket, glanced at the little lion on the bed, then looked at the neatly dressed Hu Caicai, and couldn't help but ask in confusion, "When you demons transform into human form, do you... bring your own clothes?"
Hu Caicai twirled a strand of her black hair with her fingers, with an expression that said, "Isn't this natural?"
"Of course, we animals should have some sense of shame when we practice transformation... Oh!"
As he was speaking, he suddenly realized something and looked at the little white lion on the bed. "Oh, I see. It turns out that Boss Lion has always been honest with you."
Hu Caicai pointed it out with a smile.
Bai Rendong: “…” He felt his cheeks getting warmer.
He forced himself to change the subject. "Let's not talk about this for now. Do you know what happened to him? Why did he suddenly faint? Is it serious?"
When talking about serious matters, Hu Caicai also restrained her joking expression.
To make sure there was no mistake, he walked to the bedside again and pointed his finger at the little white lion's heart.
After a moment, he withdrew his hand and his tone became more serious: "His demonic power is much stronger than mine. We went up the mountain tonight to find the reason why his demonic power and spirituality were suppressed. He found it, so..."
Hu Caicai thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "The suppression has disappeared. His demonic power is recovering rapidly. This may require a lot of energy. Perhaps... he needs to sleep."
Bai Rendong felt a little relieved: "So... there are no other injuries, right? Just need to sleep?"
Hu Caicai nodded affirmatively: "Yeah! I feel so."
Bai Rendong held the sleeping little white lion in his arms, gently combing its soft and warm fur with his fingers, with his eyes lowered.
After a while, he raised his head again and looked at Hu Caicai, "Were you... originally monsters from Zhenyang Mountain?"
Hu Caicai nodded: "Yes."
He said, an embarrassed look on his face, pulling at his hair, "Um... I'm sorry."
"When I was first brought to the zoo, I was so rude and mean to you... because I thought you had used some trick to make my demonic power disappear."
Bai Rendong was slightly surprised, but then he understood.
No wonder when the injured red fox was brought back to the zoo, it was full of vigilance and hostility even though it was not seriously injured.
He smiled gently: "It's okay, as long as the misunderstanding is resolved."
Bai Rendong paused, looked into Hu Caicai's beautiful yet somewhat rebellious eyes, and asked sincerely, "Do you still want to stay in the zoo?"
"Yes!" Hu Caicai said without hesitation, her beautiful fox eyes curved. "It's great here. We have food, shelter, and people to take care of us. It's much better than sleeping in the open air in the mountains, living in fear!"
All I can say is it smells really good.
Hu Caicai tilted her head and said, "Just think of it as me working for you."
Bai Rendong was amused: "Okay, welcome to Zhenyang Zoo."
Hu Caicai extended her hand modestly, shook hands with Bai Rending, and then said goodbye.
A red light flashed, and Hu Caicai turned back into a red fox, wagging her tail and going back to the fox garden to sleep.
Bai Rendong lowered his head, put his cheek against the top of the little lion's head, sighed softly, hugged his little lion, stood up and left the medical room.
