Chapter 3 The First Night with the Furry One

Liang He gently flicked Mo Jin Wang Hu's nose, her doting and amused tone silencing him again, though his gaze remained fixed on Xu Yi with hostility.

"Roar!"

Don't come near!

"Okay, okay, I won't come near you."

Xu Yi raised his hands in surrender, then helplessly turned to Liang He for help.

"Could you please take him into the treatment room? We'll need him to stand on the scanner."

The specialized scanner can check Cedril's injury with a single click, making it the easiest, most efficient, and most accurate method; it all depends on whether Cedril is willing to cooperate.

"Let me try."

Liang He did not immediately agree, but instead tried to guide Cedril into the house.

Cedril, who was initially reluctant, saw her go inside first while Xu Yi was still standing outside. Unwilling to share a room with him, Cedril immediately followed Liang He with his four big cat paws.

Xu Yi, who was once again thoroughly rejected, sighed helplessly. He was doomed; he had been blacklisted.

It's alright now, but I'm afraid that when Cedril regains his memory, he'll still be on the blacklist, and that would be terrible!

"Ouch!"

As soon as Cedril entered the treatment room, he swung his big tail and looked around. After confirming that it was safe, he glanced coldly at Xu Yi outside the door before walking towards Liang He.

"Wow, Cedril, you're amazing! You can even stand on the scanner by yourself now!"

Following Xu Yi's instructions, Liang He walked to the scanner's operating table. She originally planned to coax Cedril up slowly, but unexpectedly, Cedril jumped onto the scanner on his own to see what she was doing.

The control room kept observing Huo An and his group at Service Area No. 7, remaining silent.

Okay, everyone knows the marshal is hypocritical, so what are they still expecting?
Just moments ago, when Cedril was hunting Xu Yi, they were all on tenterhooks, but in the blink of an eye, they saw Liang He hug him, and he actually gave up the hunt.

You should know that this goes against the nature of wild beasts!
"Cedriel, I'm going to start the scan now. You stay still and don't move around."

Taking advantage of the chaos—no, striking while the iron was hot—Liang He immediately began scanning Cedril's injuries.

With Liang He as bait, Cedril obediently completed the scan.

Seeing this, everyone in the control room wiped away tears of bitterness. Marshal, this is outrageous! Your double standards have no bottom line!
"Huh? Why do you have so many old injuries?"

Looking at the scan results, Liang He couldn't help but frown. Unexpectedly, in addition to the few new injuries that appeared today, Cedril had even more old injuries.

Seeing that Xu Yi dared not enter, Liang He simply took the results and walked to the door, wanting to ask Cedril why he had so many old injuries.

“These injuries were all sustained by Cedril in previous battles. He didn’t cooperate with treatment, so old injuries were compounded with new ones, creating a vicious cycle. There’s nothing I can do about it.”

As SSS-class orcs, combat is a mission etched into their very bones. Just like Cedriel, who would immediately hunt down any ferocious beasts he discovered.

"She still needs to get proper treatment."

Liang He pondered for a moment, seemingly having made up her mind.

"Dr. Xu, please devise a treatment plan for me. I will follow up with Cedril during this time."

Liang He is a zookeeper, but not a veterinarian. Since everyone has their own expertise, she can only cooperate with Xu Yi.

Xu Yi originally intended to use her help to treat Cedril, and now that she brought it up herself, Xu Yi naturally wouldn't object.

"No problem, thank you for your hard work."

The two hit it off immediately, while Cedril, who was inside the house, kept a close eye on Liang He and began to get restless when she didn't come in.

"Roar!"

Cedril strolled leisurely to Liang He's side, nuzzling his large head against her neck and acting coquettishly. However, a dangerous glint flashed in his golden, vertical pupils as he stared at Xu Yi with hostility. "Ahem, it's too late today. I'll go back and prepare tomorrow's medicine. You should get some rest!"

Sensing danger, Xu Yi immediately slipped away, and the atmosphere instantly returned to harmony as soon as he left.

"Why did Dr. Xu run so fast?"

Liang He tilted her head, pressed it against Cedril's big head, gently stroked his ear, and looked at Xu Yi's rapidly disappearing figure with a puzzled expression.

Cedril, whose ears were itchy from being petted, reached out and pressed down on her mischievous hand, then retreated back into the room, shaking his head incessantly.

"Bah bah bah."

Liang He, who had been smeared with fur, wiped his face speechlessly, and when he looked down, his hand was covered in fur.

"Shouldn't you brush your fur?"

This much shedding is unacceptable!
Without further ado, Liang He fetched a basin of water, grabbed a new towel, and sat cross-legged next to Cedril, beginning to wipe the dirt and blood off his body.

Fortunately, Mo Jin Wang Hu himself likes water and is a clean cat, so he cooperated very well.

It took Liang He three basins of water to completely clean him before she started grooming his fur.

"You have way too much loose fur. Didn't the zookeeper ever brush it for you before?"

The zookeepers, who were being criticized, said: "Is it that we don't want to groom Marshal? It's clearly Marshal who won't let us touch him!"
"Ouch..."

Cedril lay down comfortably, exposing his belly, making it easier for Liang He to groom the hair on his abdomen.

He stretched lazily, his paws all pawed out, his fluffy tail swaying back and forth, making Liang He so cute that she kissed his forehead several more times.

After all the fur was combed, Liang He was exhausted, and the two of them lay down in the treatment room and fell fast asleep.

"She just fell asleep like that?"

The people in the control room looked at Liang He, who was using the tiger's belly as a pillow, and exchanged speechless glances.

On the contrary, Huo An frowned when he saw that the petite and fragile Blue Star people didn't even have a blanket to sleep in.

"Remember to send Liang He more supplies tomorrow, and also set up a bed for her in the treatment room, and prepare a quilt and pillow."

From now on, as long as Cedril is still in the evolutionary stage, Liang He will be the key person to protect. With her around, the chances of Cedril safely getting through the evolutionary stage are very high.

Clearly, the others had also thought of this and were taking it seriously.

"clear."

To be honest, sleeping on the floor was a bit uncomfortable. When Liang He woke up, she felt sore and had a sore back. It took her a while to recover.

Mo Jin Wang Hu, who had been asleep but had been waking up earlier, immediately got up as well when he saw her get up. He bent down, stretched, and then walked towards the door.

"Roar!"

Last night, fearing she would catch a cold, Liang He closed the door. The people in the control room were quite nervous when they saw this, since wild animals refuse to be kept in captivity, and closing the door is a dangerous act.

However, when Cedril saw Liang He close the door, he merely raised his eyelids lazily and didn't react at all.

When Liang He lay back down on his stomach, he even changed to a more comfortable position, leaving them speechless.

Silence reigns in the control room tonight.

"Okay, I'll open the door right away."

Liang He tied her hair up, her ponytail flying in the air, and strode towards the door. The moment she opened the door, Cedril vanished without a trace.

I love fluffy things so much! There will be even more fluffy things in the future, keep it up!
