Chapter 22: No, this human can hear what the falcon is thinking. (Part 2)

The little golden monkey looked at its paws, squeezing them,

either fully open or fully closed, but unable to stretch just one finger.

Wen Youning directly hooked its pinky, “Good!”

“Woo…” The little golden monkey placed its other paw over it,

trying to wrap Wen Youning’s hand with its paw.

Having comforted Slow, Wen Youning hugged the two little golden monkeys and said, “I’ll take them back.”

Qian Nuo said: “I’ll help too.”

The staff looked at the scene and said,

“I… did I just have a brain short circuit?”

This person seems like they’re having a conversation with the little golden monkeys and having a back-and-forth.

Everything seems so odd, but they’re playing along as if it’s completely normal.

Something’s not right.

This is very wrong.

The night passed in a flurry of busy activity.

Until the first light of dawn appeared.

After the last little golden monkey was sent back and the door was closed,

Wen Youning was so exhausted that she could barely stand.

Qian Nuo clenched his fists and hit his back,

“This entire night has been too packed.”

As they collided face-to-face with the police escorting someone,

Wen Youning felt that the man, who was handcuffed and being led by the police, seemed to glare at her.

Wen Youning: “?”

Had they crossed paths before?

Wen Youning had no memory of this person, “Who is that?”

“Qiu Ranqing. He’s in charge of Monkey Mountain,

didn’t you see him at the police station, Teacher Wen?”

Wen Youning hadn’t paid much attention,

but if that was the case, it seemed like they had a grudge.

“This time, he’s suspected of embezzlement.

I heard from the director it’s over a million, so if convicted, it’s over ten years or even life imprisonment.”

Qian Nuo placed his hands behind his head and stretched his sore neck,

“This guy’s gonna die from anger. Serves him right.”

Wen Youning didn’t intend to interfere with the internal matters of the zoo, and compared to that,

she was more concerned with another matter, “Let me know if there’s any news about the goose egg.”

“Don’t worry, Teacher Wen. As soon as the police finish their investigation, I’ll call you immediately.”

Qian Nuo assured her, “You’ve been busy all night, go back and rest, tonight’s been a hassle for you.”

Wen Youning yawned, “I’m going.”

“Take care, Teacher Wen.”

Wen Youning waved her hand, not looking back as she got into the car that had been arranged for her.

At this time, the street food stalls were already open.

Wen Youning struggled to stay awake and didn’t fall asleep in the car.

She was in a daze as she returned home, flopped onto the sofa, and casually draped a thin blanket over herself.

“Meow…” The little tabby cat, who had been sleeping on the bed in the bedroom, ran out when it heard movement.

By the time it got there, Wen Youning was already asleep on the sofa.

The little tabby cat paused, its tail tip swaying less as it jumped onto the sofa.

It sniffed the scent of other animals, the same one it had smelled earlier!

“Meow?” The little tabby cat’s fur stood on end, “Meow!”

‘There’s that strange smell again.’

‘I don’t like it!’

The little tabby cat sat on the sofa, facing away from Wen Youning,

angry, but its eyes couldn’t help but peek back.

It turned back for the first time.

Then a second time,

And a third…

But Wen Youning was just too tired, sleeping deeply without any reaction.

When the little kitten saw that the human didn’t respond, it got even angrier.

The little tabby cat flicked its tail impatiently,

turned around, and started kneading Wen Youning’s arm, “Meow…”

Scratch it off, just scratch it off.

All of it’s a meow!

Everything is!

The little tabby cat licked her cheek,

“Meow!”

‘The human went out hunting and was bullied by strange things.’

‘Let me go out hunting!’

The little tabby cat grabbed the blanket from her and thought,

‘I’ll hunt and bring food for the human.’

…

She stayed up all night.

Wen Youning’s original schedule was quite healthy, waking early and sleeping early.

But after such a busy night, her biological clock was completely messed up.

She fell asleep.

The morning was still grey when she fell asleep,

and when she woke up, it was still grey outside.

Wen Youning looked at the swaying curtains,

groggily thinking that she hadn’t actually slept,

but when she checked her phone, she realized it was already past six in the afternoon.

“Ugh…” Wen Youning buried her head in the cushion and sighed, no wonder her stomach felt empty.

It turned out she had slept the whole day away.

Wrapped in the blanket, Wen Youning sat up, and as she moved,

something ‘crunched’ down from her body.

She furrowed her brows and looked closely—it was the little tabby cat’s food.

It wasn’t the kind she made, but leftover bagged cat food.

“Meow…”

‘The human’s awake.’

Wen Youning hugged the little cat and kissed it,

“Were you worried I’d be hungry, so you prepared food for me?”

“Meow!” The little tabby cat slapped its paw down,

reassuring her that there was plenty of food.

“Go ahead and eat.”

Wen Youning gathered the cat food and placed it on the table,

breaking a piece of bread to put underneath.

She wasn’t feeling very energetic after just waking up,

and didn’t feel like cooking, so she decided to order takeout.

“About thirty minutes…”

The takeout would take a while, so Wen Youning washed her face to wake herself up,

changed into pajamas, and settled in the living room sofa, playing with her phone and cuddling the little tabby cat.

Fortunately, after the last two acupuncture sessions for the general, they didn’t need to be too frequent anymore.

They were now spaced out to every other day, or else this sleep would have caused a delay.

But…

When she opened Weibo, the trending topic at number one was:

Shocking! Streamer and pet doctor Wen Youning missing for nearly 20 hours without streaming!

Wen Youning: “…”

I didn’t even know I was missing.

The Weibo discussions were full of people talking about it.

Wen Youning clicked on it and discovered that the clips of her interacting with the little animals at the zoo had been turned into GIFs.

But instead of focusing on the protagonist of the incident,

people became curious and, after finding Wen Youning’s live streaming account,

discovered that she hadn’t gone live.

As a result, the discussions around the topic grew even more.

Wasn’t the stream supposed to be this morning?

It’s already dark outside.

Is it real that she’s hugging a black bear, or is that a fake video? I’m curious.

Searching the entire internet for Teacher Wen’s whereabouts.

I finally found a stream I like,

and now she’s not streaming!

How am I supposed to eat my meal now?!

…

Wen Youning thought for a moment and then opened the live streaming platform,

only to find her inbox had exploded.

It was truly an explosion—she couldn’t even get in,

the progress bar was stuck, and the loading icon kept spinning.

Unable to reply to the messages, Wen Youning clicked to start the stream.

She held the little tabby cat in front of her face, holding its paw and waving,

“Good afternoon, everyone.”

So you still know how to stream!

Where did you sneak off to? You didn’t even take us with you!

Wen Youning smiled with her eyes and brows, “I went to do some chivalrous deeds.”

The bullet comments: What??

Wen Youning leaned back, sinking into the couch,

“It’s late today, so I’ll just stream for a bit.

If there’s an emergency, you can cut the queue; otherwise, I’ll go in order.”

“Feel free to describe your symptoms in the bullet comments.”

The little tabby cat licked its paw,

and its pupils dilated as it seemed to notice something.

It jumped off Wen Youning’s lap,

its paws landing lightly on the ground without making a sound.

Its tail lowered, its body crouched,

and it stared intently at the window, suddenly speeding toward it.

‘Something delicious!’

“Don’t play on the window; it’s dangerous outside.”

Wen Youning hadn’t found an emergency yet and was about to connect when she noticed the little tabby cat charging toward the window.

Though the windows were sealed,

it still hurt a bit when it hit them.

“Chirp—!”

A short cry followed by the sound of wings flapping as a bird struggled,

and then the dull thud of wings hitting the glass.

The sound of tree leaves rustling soon followed.

Outside the window, the tree shadows danced.

The little tabby cat stood on the windowsill,

outside was a burglar-proof window with a layer of wooden boards and flowerpots.

With one swipe, the little tabby cat’s paw reached through the iron mesh of the sealed window and grabbed the bird’s wing outside.

“Little tabby cat?” Wen Youning was startled.

She was in the city, and there were only a few types of birds,

with sparrows being the most common.

“You didn’t catch a sparrow, did you?

You can’t eat that!”

Wow, it’s a nationally protected species.

Although it’s not a level one or two protected animal, hunting, selling, or acquiring it is illegal.】

Hiss—How should we count this as a cat scratch?

Little tabby cat: Human! I’ve found a long-term meal ticket for you!

Hahaha, lost all sense of self, huh? But, it’s true, it’s too much!

…
