Chapter 82 The Squirrel's Impotent Rage

The furry creature, believing it had concealed itself very well, was unaware that three two-legged beasts were quietly following behind it.

The main reason is that he's gotten used to the smell of Liang He and the others, and he also picks up their scent on himself, so he wouldn't notice it unless he specifically looks for it.

[We'll follow them secretly and catch them red-handed!]

To prevent the furry dog ​​from hearing, Holder skillfully used hand gestures to communicate with the other two. After the three reached a consensus, the dog followed stealthily behind them until they entered a grove of trees.

[Stop! Target spotted!]

Liang He made a gesture to freeze, and the three of them hid behind a big tree, quietly watching the graceful figure with beautiful patterns mixed in with the snow-white skin under the moonlight.

That's right, the real culprit behind the pinecone mystery in this case is—the Mengji Snow Leopard!
The Mengji Snow Leopard skillfully sniffed under various trees, and once it smelled the unique fragrance of pine cones, it immediately activated its innate skill.

Dig a hole!

[Hohohohohohoho: Wow, Kuang Ye's base-stealing skills are pretty good!]

While Mengji Snow Leopard was engrossed in digging the hole, Holder secretly used his personal terminal to chat with Liang He and the others in a small group.

Fortunately, everyone had switched to silent mode and turned the brightness to the lowest setting before coming. With the moonlight providing cover, it wasn't easy to be discovered.

[Cool Moonlight on Chenghe: For some reason, I feel a little sorry for the little squirrel whose home was stolen.]

[Lan Zhuo: I think I saw that little squirrel.]

As soon as Lan Zhuo sent the message, Liang He and Hurd looked in the direction he was pointing.

There stood a cute little squirrel on a tree trunk, glaring angrily at the snow leopard and barking loudly at it.

As a result... the snow leopard couldn't even see a trace of it.

Unfortunately, the squirrel is indeed quite small compared to the snow leopard. It's likely that if a snow leopard were to run, it might not even notice if it stepped on the squirrel.

[Hohohohohohohoho: Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter, this little squirrel is so cute, I'm in a state of impotent rage!]

If he weren't afraid of being discovered by the snow leopard, Holder would definitely not have been able to hold back his laughter. He had already started pinching the flesh on his thigh to try to calm down.

[Lan Zhuo: If you put yourself in the shoes of a squirrel who painstakingly saves up food for two or three months to survive the winter, only to have it stolen by a 'thief' and ignored by the 'thief,' you wouldn't be laughing.]

Ga?
Holder's smile vanished abruptly. What to do? He actually found Lan Zhuo's words quite reasonable and was completely drawn into the story!

On the other side, the little squirrel was still trying its best to scare away the snow leopard, but the difference in strength was too great, and it couldn't attract the snow leopard's attention at all.

But if the snow leopard really notices it, it might just be eaten as a midnight snack.

[Cool Moonlight Becomes Cheng He: Logically speaking, squirrels wouldn't put all their pine cones in one place, so the leopard wouldn't specifically target one squirrel to steal them, right?]

Seeing the little squirrel jumping up and down in anger, yet not daring to actually provoke the snow leopard, Liang He couldn't help but feel sorry for it.

She sighed, feeling helpless as the cat's caretaker, having such a troublesome little stray cat.

[Lan Zhuo: It's hard to say. Judging from Kuang Ye's practiced manner, he probably remembered the squirrel's scent.]

Logically speaking, even if the snow leopard Mengji knew that there were squirrels hiding in this forest for the winter, it would still need to search for a while. However, it quickly located the squirrel's hideout as soon as it arrived, which clearly meant that it had already identified its target.

[Hehehehehehe: Now that you mention it, I suddenly feel even more sorry for this little squirrel, tsk tsk.]

Holder may not have truly pitied the little squirrel; it seems he was more interested in watching the spectacle.

Seeing that the little squirrel's food barn was about to be ransacked by the snow leopard, Liang He caught a glimpse of the little squirrel's pitiful, weak, and helpless expression as it was almost crying. Feeling sorry for it, she quickly appeared.

"Leopard, what are you doing?"

"Meow!"

The sudden sound startled Mengji Snow Leopard, who was already feeling guilty, so he jumped up. When he turned around and saw Liang He, the expression on his face was incredibly varied. Initially shocked, then relieved, and finally, furtive guilt and the embarrassment of being caught red-handed.

As a veterinarian specializing in animal research, this was the first time Lan Zhuo had ever seen such a human-like expression on an animal's face.

However, since the Mengji Snow Leopard was originally transformed from a beastman, it should be within the normal range.
Lan Zhuo was unaware that he was simply following behind Liang He, watching her teach Meng Ji Xuebao a lesson.

"Leopard, who taught you to bully the weak? And you even stole their pine cones!"

Liang He pretended to be fierce and pinched Meng Ji Xue Bao's ear, scaring him so much that he didn't dare to move.

It wasn't a question of whether he could win or not; the main issue was that he couldn't bear to harm Liang He, so he could only obediently listen to the instructions.

"Meow~"

The Mengji snow leopard fawned at Liang He, rubbing its large head against her palm in an attempt to escape.

Before Liang He could even speak, the little squirrel whose home had been raided rubbed against her shoulder, its beady eyes meeting the leopard's leopard-like gaze.

"Meow...woo?"

Sensing the squirrel's provocative gaze, the snow leopard roared at it, but before it could finish, Liang He forcibly shut its mouth.

"Leopard, it's time for you to brush your teeth again."

Liang He separated the snow leopard from the squirrel, turned her head slightly to look at the squirrel on her shoulder, and then heard the squirrel chirping and waving its little paws in protest.

It was clear that it had been unhappy for a long time about the snow leopard repeatedly stealing its home.

However, it must be admitted that the little squirrel is quite perceptive and immediately found the right backer.

"Yes, I know. It was wrong of Leopard to steal your pine cones. I will make it up to you on his behalf."

No matter what, the snow leopard stole the squirrel's pine cones to bring Liang He a gift, and she and Holder ate them too. As the zookeeper, she should apologize to the squirrel.

"How about I trade you these nuts for pine cones?"

Liang He pulled out a large bag of nuts from somewhere, all of which the little squirrels loved to eat.

The squirrel, which had been accusing the snow leopard, immediately fell silent and quickly hugged the bag of nuts to its chest, as if afraid that the human in front of it would change its mind.

Liang He's idea was simple: she didn't want to disappoint Mengji Snow Leopard, but she also wanted to appease the little squirrel. Since he had dug out the pine cone, she would consider it an exchange of food between her and the little squirrel, so that everyone would be happy.

"So you're saying I can take these pine cones?"

The little squirrel leaped off Liang He's shoulder, but clutched the bag of nuts tightly in its arms.

The little squirrel quickly climbed up the tree, placed the bag of nuts on the tree, and planned to hide it somewhere after the others left.

Then it came down and pushed the pine cones that the snow leopard had dug out toward Liang He, indicating that she should take them. It even had the little squirrel dig out a few pine cones that had been left in the cave and give them to Liang He.

Wow, so many pine cones, thank you.

Liang He smiled and accepted the pine cones. After putting them in a bag, she led the snow leopard, which had its tail in its mouth and looked aggrieved, away from the grove.

"Liang He, I have a question, but I'm not sure if I should ask it?"

Holder looked at Liang He with a serious expression, feigning deep thought.

"What's wrong? Just say it."

Seeing Holder stammering, Lan Zhuo also curiously came over.

"So... if you used a bag to carry the pine cones, then how did Kuang Ye bring them back?"

The little squirrel whose home was stolen was rescued by a kind-hearted zookeeper! The ending was delightful, so how did Leopard manage to bring the pine cone back to his dorm? Haha, goodnight, babies~
