Reborn as a tiger, he was chosen by the nation as its guardian beast.

Wang Hu flicked his tail with a look of disgust and turned his head away from her hand.

This girl, does she think she's a Pokémon?

However, seeing her expectant look, Wang Hu's heart stirred.

When he was first born, he was weak and frail, and this girl took care of him almost entirely by herself, providing meticulous care.

He always remembered this friendship.

It wouldn't hurt to play along with her.

Wang Hu lay lazily on the ground, not even changing his posture, but his mind stirred slightly.

An invisible command was transmitted through Tiger Might's talent.

next second.

"Puff puff puff!"

A grey parrot suddenly flew down from a tree not far away and landed precisely on the fence in front of Zhang Xiyue.

It is the zoo's current number two star, the chattering parrot.

Before Zhang Xiyue could react, she heard the parrot tilt its head and speak in an extremely mature tone.

"Is this Zhang Xiyue? I heard you just finished the college entrance exam? How did it go? Are you confident you'll get into your dream university?"

Zhang Xiyue was completely stunned. She stared blankly at the grey parrot, her eyes wide open.

My dad bought this parrot for a lot of money half a year ago. He heard that grey parrots are the smartest and can learn to talk quickly.

As a result, after teaching it for a full six months, this grey parrot only learned the two words "idiot".

Moreover, it would only bark when its own father was teaching it, which would make its father so angry that he would blow his beard and glare at it, and almost stew it.

But now, this parrot, which is full of profanities, is actually asking about her college entrance exam results in a clear and articulate way?

Zhang Xiyue's brain was working at lightning speed. She suddenly turned her head and her gaze fell on the big tiger that had been lying lazily behind her from beginning to end.

A bold idea popped into her mind.

"Big Cat, you did it, didn't you?"

She moved closer to Wang Hu, her face showing suspicion mixed with barely concealed excitement.

Wang Hu lifted his eyelids and looked at her face, which was filled with "admit it quickly" written all over it. His tiger mouth opened into a barely perceptible slit.

That look was just like a human smile.

Seeing his expression, Zhang Xiyue understood perfectly well.

She gasped, her face filled with shock.

"You really did this!"

"My God! You can actually control a grey parrot to talk!"

She had previously thought Wang Hu was clever and perceptive, but now it seemed he truly possessed some extraordinary abilities!

Zhang Desheng, who was standing next to him, also recovered from his initial shock.

He wasn't stupid; he could think of anything his daughter could think of.

And he thought of even more.

For example, there are the monkeys practicing in formation at the zoo recently, the peacocks dancing in unison, the two bears that are obviously abnormal to anyone with eyes, and this parrot that is speaking human language more and more fluently...

Over the past month or so, all the inexplicable changes at the zoo suddenly became clear.

It turns out that the mastermind behind all of this was the tiger he had watched grow up!

Not only did he awaken extraordinary abilities himself, but he also knew how to lead all the animals in the zoo to "generate revenue" for the zoo!

This IQ and EQ are frighteningly high!

Zhang Desheng was both shocked and moved.

He strode over, rubbing his hands excitedly, his eyes filled with gratitude as he looked at Wang Hu.

"Great! That's wonderful! Big Cat, I never knew you'd done so much for our park behind the scenes!"

"I had no idea before."

"To thank you, tonight I'll personally cook you a whole cow feast!"

An all-ox feast?

Upon hearing those three words, Wang Hu's ears immediately perked up.

He couldn't help but swallow hard.

To be honest, although Old Zhang is a bit stingy, his cooking skills are truly exceptional, especially his stewing skills, which are unparalleled.

The main reason he's willing to stay peacefully in the zoo is that he can't live without Lao Zhang's long-term meal ticket.

Now that they've even arranged a whole cow feast for themselves, there's even more hope for these days of lying down.

……

Night fell quietly.

Just as Wang Hu was happily lounging in his den, anticipating his upcoming whole-cow feast, a massive operation was secretly underway throughout Huacheng.

Zhao Lei, along with two action teams from the Stability Maintenance Office, used the pretext of a "flood control drill" to urgently block all the main waterways within Huacheng.

A large number of police officers were seconded to assist them in conducting a thorough search of every river channel.

Their only goal was to find the mutated crocodile that had already killed two people before dawn and kill it on the spot!

As it turns out, even in an era of spiritual resurgence, humanity remains the undisputed ruler of this planet.

Although the mutated crocodile was far superior to its kind in strength, speed, and even cunning, it was still chased away in fear by modern technology and sheer numbers.

During that time, it was hit by several sniper shots.

However, this guy was indeed tough and resilient. Despite being shot several times, he didn't die completely. Instead, he suddenly disappeared and went into hiding, taking advantage of the complex underground water network.

For two days in a row, Zhao Lei and his men worked almost non-stop, turning the entire body of water upside down, but they still couldn't find any trace of it.

Fortunately, that guy was probably seriously injured, and he hasn't come out to hurt anyone in the past two days.

……

Wang Hu was completely unaware of the turmoil happening outside.

He ate the whole cow feast with gusto, his mouth greasy and his mouth full of oil, completely satisfied.

After eating and drinking his fill, he resumed his daily lazy, lying-down life.

Every day, besides eating and sleeping, and basking in the sun, he would occasionally be bothered by Zhang Xiyue, directing the parrots to bicker with her, or making the monkeys perform a new formation.

Tiger's life can be described as extremely simple, unadorned, and monotonous.

His inherently lazy demeanor made the two stability maintenance staff members in the monitoring room increasingly bored.

"Brother Li, are you saying this is truly an extraordinary creature? To me, it seems no different from any ordinary feline in a zoo."

"All they do is eat and sleep, that's so lazy."

It was evening again. A young detective, who had been staring at the screen for a long time without noticing Wang Hu move, rubbed his eyes, yawned, and asked with a puzzled look.

Upon hearing this, another slightly older detective couldn't help but laugh.

"What else do you want? To be like that crocodile that turned Hwaseong upside down? I'd rather stay here and watch it sleep every day."

The young detective looked somewhat dismissive, but then, as if he'd just thought of something, he exclaimed excitedly, "Brother Li, speaking of which, if this tiger and that crocodile were to fight, who do you think has a better chance of winning?"

"It's hard to say. That crocodile was extremely ferocious, with thick skin and flesh. It survived several shots from us. But this tiger is also very strange. The tranquilizer gun couldn't hit it before... It just goes to show that these extraordinary creatures really do have some strange characteristics."

"But if we really have to decide which is better, I still favor the crocodile," Brother Li said after careful consideration.
