Pretend to be the host, pretend to be in love!

The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (145)

Wang Chen is quite clever; when he said he needed to think of a solution, he actually came up with a good one.

This method is simple in some ways, but not difficult in others.

Make noise in the east and attack in the west.

The base has been frequently harassed recently, and there have been multiple calls for help from patrol teams outside the base, saying that they have been attacked by some kind of creature.

At first, there were only one or two cases, and the base quickly sent people over, but they didn't pay much attention to it.

Before they could even figure out what had attacked the residents, several more similar incidents occurred in quick succession.

These cases share a striking consistency: the victims all claim they were attacked by animals, not humans.

The patrol that had been investigating quickly confirmed that what the survivors who had called for help had said was true. The traces they found clearly showed not only animal footprints and fur, but they could also smell the scents left by animals along the way.

This incident quickly drew the attention of the base, as it was more than just a simple attack.

The sudden occurrence of this wild animal attack after the base had just promulgated a series of regulations on the peaceful coexistence of awakened animals and humans will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the base's newly promulgated regulations.

When Song Ning learned about this, he could clearly sense that the overall atmosphere of the base was quite different.

Some who had previously looked at the new animals with suspicion now cast their gazes at them with an air of 'those who are not of our kind must have different hearts'.

Even if all these new animals have legally obtained their new identities at the base, it is still unavoidable.

Most of these people were not optimistic about the regulations to begin with, and gradually they began to criticize the base's higher-ups in private.

The general consensus was that they didn't know what the base was thinking. How could humans and animals possibly coexist peacefully? Even if they were to coexist peacefully, animals should only exist as pets. How could they really treat animals as 'humans'?

Song Ning heard a lot of these stories, and even the group of kids who often came over to help him practice after they got to know him discussed it privately several times.

However, the children had a different opinion from those people. They were born after the apocalypse and had little contact with pets. On the contrary, they were often taken care of by those mutated animals, so most of them thought there was nothing wrong with the base's actions.

Some people even came to ask Song Ning what she thought, feeling that they couldn't understand why those 'adults' were acting so strangely.

Song Ning had just harvested a new batch of crops at his farm. This time, the harvest was slightly worse because of the foggy weather. In the middle of the harvest, Song Ning was so disappointed that Lance asked him if he wanted some nutrient solution, but Song Ning refused.

After all, everyone was in a panic for a while because of the fog. If his harvest was too good, it would easily arouse suspicion. So in the end, Song Ning could only watch his harvest get worse with great heartache.

When the children came to ask him questions, Song Ning actually thought about it very seriously before answering them.

"Personally, I believe that all living things on this planet have the right to choose how to live. They can choose to survive or coexist peacefully. Since the other party has proposed to coexist peacefully with us, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. After all, we are all just living things on this planet, right?"

The children were visibly pleased by his words, but some were still not so happy.

Fifteen-year-old Xiao Wu may not be the best student among this group of children, but she is definitely the most unique.

He sighed deeply, looking troubled like a little adult.

"But so many adults are so stupid. They weren't attacked by Uncle Dog and his gang at the base, so why are they so against Uncle Dog and his gang staying at the base? Uncle Dog and his gang have made contributions to the base, and I think they're very strong. I heard from Aunt Man that Uncle Dog and his gang have helped the base a lot. They are an indispensable part of the base."

Song Ning was a little surprised to hear these words; he hadn't expected these children to say such things.

But on second thought, it makes sense. It’s not hard to see that the base has put a lot of effort into raising these children; it’s not just about simply raising them to adulthood.

We hope that the base will raise these children, and these children will be the future of the Hope Base.

As attacks increased and the situation within the base became more chaotic, the first conflict still occurred, even though the base had clear regulations stipulating that harming new animals would be punished.

The first to be harmed was Dolly, who had previously negotiated with the base as a representative. She was attacked by the mother of the family that was attacked on the outskirts, and her child was injured in the attack.

"They're not human, so why should we live in peace with them? My daughter was killed by creatures like them, are you blind?"

“Madam, our patrol has already told you that the creature that attacked your daughter was an unidentified alien, not a resident with legal status in the base. Dolly, like you and your daughter, has the legal right to live in the base. What you did is illegal.”

"So what if I broke the law? If it weren't for you all turning a blind eye and pretending not to know that the things that harmed my daughter were right there in the base, you'd be a den of snakes and rats, protecting criminals!"

The attackers couldn't listen to the security team at all, and the security team was at their wits' end.

This matter is not as easy to handle as it seems on the surface. They have heard the rumors circulating in the base, and if it is not handled properly, it could lead to a series of negative consequences.

Song Ning and Lance were also standing in the crowd watching. He subconsciously tightened his grip on Lance's fingers and whispered.

"If this continues, will the base compromise for them?"

If that day ever comes, he'll have to consider giving up everything in the base. Because Lance's big cat form might also be in danger.

As Lance observed the farce unfolding, he felt a strange unease creeping over him.

His gaze was fixed on the woman who was shouting and seemingly trying to attract attention, and he spoke slowly.

“Something’s not right. I feel like she did it on purpose. She has another purpose.”

Song Ning was taken aback. "What do you mean?"

Wasn't that woman standing up for her child because her child was injured?
