After understanding the language of animals, I quit the entertainment circle and started working for

Chapter 42 Chinese Merganser

In the truck on the other side, Zheng Guangsheng pulled Wang Chusui to confirm repeatedly.

"You said Sister Xiao didn't even let me help today. Are you still angry about what happened before?"

Wang Chusui, who had just listened to Zheng Guangsheng's complete apology, wiped his face and did not speak for a long time.

Is this kind of apology without any beginning or end considered an apology?
But Zheng Guangsheng acted like he was seriously seeking advice, which made it hard for people to criticize him.

"Maybe... maybe you weren't obvious enough?"

Wang Chusui tried to be as tactful as possible.

Zheng Guangsheng nodded thoughtfully.

It seems so.

Next time, he would try to be more obvious so that people could feel his enthusiasm right away.

Seeing Zheng Guangsheng so serious and motivated, Wang Chusui couldn't help but twitch his lips.

do not know why……

Why do I always feel that this child’s understanding seems a little bit off?

……

It was almost midnight when they got off the highway.

Out of desperation, they had to rush to the hotel to spend the night.

After getting out of the car, Zheng Guangsheng subconsciously went to look for Lin Xiao.

Seeing her get off the car, he was about to move forward, but before he could move, Lin Xiao glared at him fiercely.

Lin Xiao snorted in disdain, threw his backpack over his shoulder angrily, turned around and left, not wanting to pay any attention to him at all.

Zheng Guangsheng looked confused and went to Lu Chengshen to ask for advice.

"Lu Bu, what happened to Sister Xiao?"

Wasn't it fine when you got on the car before?
Lu Chengshen cleared his throat meaningfully and said in a deep voice, "Maybe... I was frightened by your enthusiasm."

After saying that, he turned calmly and walked towards the hotel.

Zheng Guangsheng scratched his head, looking confused.

Is that right?

Wang Chusui sighed, pulled over the person who was standing there in a daze, and patted him on the head.

"Let's go, brother doesn't dislike you!"

……

Assign rooms and set the gathering time for tomorrow.

Lin Xiao took the room card and was about to leave when he suddenly felt someone pulling his arm.

I subconsciously lowered my head and saw Lu Chengshen walking up to me and grabbing my arm.

Lin Xiao looked up in confusion.

Then he heard Lu Chengshen's tone very intimate, "You've been busy all day and haven't eaten yet. Are you hungry?"

"We're going out to get something to eat now."

As he spoke, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards the hotel gate.

Zheng Guangsheng suddenly widened his eyes and pointed at them, unable to speak clearly.

"Brother Chuchu, they..."

Wang Chusui sighed, grabbed the person next to him, and dragged him into the elevator.

"Come on, come on... let's go this way and not get together with them!"

On the other side, Lin Xiao was being dragged out of the hotel gate.

She glanced back at the receptionist who was looking out, then turned to look at the man beside her.

There was a hint of questioning in his joking tone, "Minister Lu, what happened today? Shouldn't you explain it to me?"

The next second, Lu Chengshen raised his hand to straighten her body, stretched out his long arm, passed over her waist, as if holding her in his arms.

The man's breath hit Lin Xiao's face, and he froze for a moment.

The next second, Lu Chengshen's serious voice came to my ears.

"do not move!"

Lin Xiao glanced sideways slightly.

On her back, the man's left hand was resting on her left arm.

His entire arm was suspended in the air, very gentlemanly and did not touch her body.

The man continued calmly, "Do you remember what I asked you to help with before?"

Lin Xiao nodded and waited for his next words.

Lu Chengshen had mentioned asking her for help before, but he never mentioned giving her the information until they set off.

She thought that the matter of needing help was over and put it out of her mind.

But now it looks like...

Not only was this matter not left unresolved, it was even more extraordinary. "You should know the Chinese merganser, right?"

As an animal conservationist, who doesn’t know this species that is comparable to the giant panda?

The Chinese merganser is known as a "living fossil" among birds and is a species that survived the Tertiary Ice Age.

It has a history of more than 10 million years.

It is a national first-class protected animal.

Even globally, the number of Chinese mergansers is only about 3,000.

But Lin Xiao knew better that Lu Chengshen brought up this matter at this moment, definitely not just because of the preciousness of the Chinese merganser.

If she remembered correctly... the best place for the Chinese merganser to breed seemed to be in the Northeast.

Is it...

"Is there anyone interested in the Chinese merganser?" Lin Xiao asked with a frown.

Lu Chengshen sneered, with a hint of solemnity in his voice.

“I’m afraid it’s not just the Chinese merganser.”

"Remember the group that stole the little snow leopard?"

"Based on the information they provided, we later cracked two more rare animal poaching dens."

"But when we went to investigate other places based on their confessions, we found that those places were already deserted, just two days later."

"We came to Northeast China this time because someone reported that they stumbled upon the Scaly Merganser while searching for pet ducks online."

Lin Xiao understood.

"So you suspect there's a gang behind this that specializes in buying and selling rare animals?"

"It's not even just a business!" Lu Chengshen added coldly.

Lin Xiao's face looked gloomy and ugly!
All animals are part of the food chain.

If some animals really become extinct because of this, the entire ecological chain will inevitably suffer severe damage.

but……

"What does that have to do with you pulling me out just now?"

Lin Xiao clutched the loose collar of his windbreaker tightly, shivering from the cold.

It was already very cold in the autumn nights.

But I didn’t expect that the autumn in Northeast China is comparable to the winter.

Lu Chengshen was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "Because my suspicion is the company we live in!"

Lin Xiao's eyes suddenly widened.

The hotel they stayed in was a five-star hotel.

The company behind the hotel is unimaginably large.

If such a large company is really involved, I'm afraid...

Lin Xiao looked incredulous and couldn't help but confirm it again.

"Are you sure?"

Lu Chengshen spread his hands, "At least the evidence I've found so far shows that this company is absolutely not innocent."

"only……"

"No evidence?!" Lin Xiao asked in confusion.

Lu Chengshen nodded, looking helpless.

From the time they received the news until now, they have conducted investigations into the company in all aspects.

No problems were found.

But it just so happened that in such a perfect company, the trafficking of rare protected animals occurred.

Lin Xiao also frowned.

She probably understood why Lu Chengshen pulled her and endured the cold wind to talk about this matter.

Judging from the receptionist who just glanced at them vaguely, it is unknown whether there are surveillance cameras in the room.

Lu Chengshen's voice slowly rang out in the cold night.

"After we finish our work in Changbai Mountain, we will head to the Greater Khingan Range region under the pretext of an inspection."

"When the time comes, we hope you can use your abilities to help us find the areas where the Chinese mergansers gather so we can provide centralized protection!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao's expression froze and he was stunned for a moment.

ability? !
What ability?
Lin Xiao laughed dryly and denied it repeatedly.

"I, what abilities do I have? Am I not the same as you?"

"Besides, hasn't the Animal Protection Center installed infrared surveillance for all these rare animals? How can I help with that?"

She laughed and tried to get the matter over with.
