Chapter 111: Chapter 111 Diaper-Wearing Monkey is Waiting for You

Brother Dai unintentionally looked down and noticed something was wrong with Chen Ying's expression.

“What's wrong?”

“Bear bile.”

Brother Dai stiffened for a moment, his expression instantly turning sour.

The rescued bear bile bears usually entered the rescue channels, but given the vastness of the country, not all bear bile bears could be treated.

Some bosses, too afraid to continue such business, would sell their black bears on, and private wildlife parks and unregulated circuses were part of the black market trade channels.

They couldn't determine whether this bear had been traded on the black market, or if someone had exploited a loophole and taken it from a rescue center.

Just before Chen Ying was about to speak, Brother Dai pressed on his shoulder.

“I'll handle this, you follow them and get the black bear on the truck, and find out where they're taking it.”

Chen Ying took a deep breath, nodded, and silently followed the staff to put the black bear in the cage, then took turns lifting it onto the boat, finally taking it to the parking lot at the other dock to load it on the truck.

After watching them leave, Brother Dai loosened his collar, his gaze flickering to the circus manager, who had been following nearby, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

After explaining the black bear's condition to the veterinarian in charge of receiving it, they also suddenly looked up at Chen Ying when they heard about the old wounds at the site of the gallbladder.

Their fingers clutching the pen were so tight that the knuckles were turning white.

“Okay, I've got it noted down. Thank you, Dr. Chen for your help.”

After getting in the car, the person whispered quickly, “Don't worry, Dr. Chen, we will try our best to follow up on this.”

Chen Ying pressed his lips together, didn't speak, nodded, and watched the vehicle drive away.

The young drone operator waited for Brother Chen to return, to say goodbye.

“Brother Chen, could I have your contact information? I'm going to apply for university next year, and I want to be a veterinarian, just like you.”

Chen Ying, slightly taken aback, glanced at the boy's parents who were both smiling at their son and promptly exchanged contact info with him.

The boy and his mother got into the car and sat down; the boy's father opened the trunk and, taking the opportunity to retrieve something, thanked Chen Ying and his companions.

“My son might not make it that long, but I'm glad he has his own goals, even if he can only walk a small part of the road; at least he won't have any regrets.”

The boy's father also exchanged contact details with Chen Ying.

As they were leaving, the boy poked his head out and loudly said goodbye to Chen Ying and the others.

Half an hour later, Brother Dai returned.

“Let's go, I'll tell you on the way.”

A while after driving away, Brother Dai put down his phone and looked up at Chen Ying, who was sitting beside him.

“I found out that this black bear was purchased from a private breeding farm. That place used to extract bile from living bears, but after that was banned, they shifted their business.”

But the bear bile farm owner didn't want to give the bears directly to rescue centers, so they sold the healthier, more mobile bears through private connections.

“The circus had applied as if the bear came not from a bear bile farm but from a private black bear breeding farm.”

In earlier years, there were many loopholes in domestic management that could be exploited, so after the bear left the bear bile farm, it became the property of the circus.

There would be follow-up investigations due to the circus incident, and the animals would be rearranged.

“Currently, the only black bear rescue center in the country is in our province, and it's very likely this bear will be sent there. I know the veterinarian there, and I've already reached out. He'll follow up on the rescue progress.”

Brother Dai patted Chen Ying on the shoulder, “I know it's tough for you, but some things must be dealt with step by step.”

Chen Ying nodded; that was one of the reasons he insisted on staying in the mountains. Some things in the human world made him angry yet helpless.

After such an incident, everyone's mood was affected. They returned to Agricultural University, handed in their tasks, and each went home.

Brother Dai had other work to attend to, and after exchanging a few words with Chen Ying, he hastily drove off.

Professor Bai was out at a meeting, and his return was uncertain. Chen Ying, not wanting to deal with anyone else, went to check on the cat cub.

“Brother Ying is back.”

The junior sister in charge of caring for the cat cub hurriedly pulled up its file to show him when she saw him coming.

“Judging by looks, the cat cub seems to have congenital development issues, but they don't seem to significantly affect its lifespan. It's just that it might be unable to return to life in the jungle.”

Its sense of balance and hunting ability were clearly subpar; surviving in the wild would be very tough for it.

“The zoo is aware of this situation, but they feel it is acceptable, after all, the genetic tests on the cat cub haven't found anything amiss so far.”

The junior sister sighed as she watched the cat cub playing carefree in its enclosure, “Actually, being in the zoo might be good too. Although its world would be much smaller, it wouldn't have to worry about food or water, and that could be a form of happiness in itself.”

Chen Ying didn't respond to her remark, standing outside the glass wall he fell into deep thought as he watched the Golden Cat Cub in the enclosure.

What the junior sister said was correct, the best option was the zoo.

Moreover, the zoo that had initially contacted him already had golden cats; the cub would have seniors there to learn from and would not be lonely.

If it went back to the mountain with him, unless he spent his whole life at the rescue station, the cat cub's life wouldn't be easy.

Even if he were on the mountain, the vast forest could pose fatal dangers to the cat cub.

The tug-of-war between reason and emotion made him feel increasingly irritable.

His cell phone rang, and it was Yin Li calling.

“When are you coming back? The little monkey is sick.”

The mention of sickness sent a shock through Chen Ying's body; glancing one last time at the cat cub, he turned around and left.

“What happened? Why is the little monkey suddenly sick?”

“I don't know the exact details. Xiao Song and Duanmu are currently examining it; it might have caught a cold. But Little Deng said he made sure every night that the little monkey stayed in its room obediently.”

Little Deng came over, looking ruefully, admitting his wrongs and stressing again and again that he really hadn't been neglectful of the little monkey.

“I understand. I'll be back as soon as possible, I should arrive by tomorrow at the latest.”

After greeting the junior sister responsible for the cat cub at the door, Chen Ying shouldered his bag at the hostel, checked out, and left in a hurry.

There was a school bus that went to the county where the center was located, and chartering a car from there to the center wasn't expensive.

He reached the county by night, paid a high price, and the driver took him to the center overnight, arriving at 1:30 a.m.

Seeing Chen Ying return, a few colleagues on duty were startled, thinking something had happened.

“How is the little monkey? The condition is manageable, we've been monitoring it here too. We even sent up some medicine this afternoon.”

The observation room was linked directly to the center through monitors. Chen Ying sat in front of the screen and watched the little fellow lying in the treatment chamber, its pitiful appearance almost made him rush up the mountain that very night.

He couldn't bring himself to go back to sleep in the dormitory, sitting there till 5:30 am, after breakfast he managed to convince Brother Liu to take him up the mountain early.

The moment Little Monkey in the treatment chamber saw him, it pressed its whole body against the glass, squeezing its little face out of shape.

Chen Ying's heart ached, he hurriedly lifted the little monkey out and did a full-body check on it.

“The current situation is okay. It had a bit of a fever yesterday and wasn't drinking milk. It hadn't touched any of its food, and I was thinking if it still wouldn't eat today, we'd have to start it on an IV.”

Xiao Song had put a diaper on the little monkey and dressed it in a small outfit, obviously bought from Taizi.

(This little monkey isn't just diapered, it can also bathe, play with water, and take off its clothes, clever as any monkey can be.)
