Approaching Chen Ying was the only option, as he was conveniently able to take on this little trouble.

“You’re trying to get a wildlife rescue qualification for your village, right? You can start by applying for a wildlife breeding permit, and then apply for the rescue qualification—it’ll be easier to get approved that way.”

Most of the permit application requirements could be met by Chen Ying, and the village had already prepared the location; it was all set but for one missing piece.

Now, the city shelter needed Chen Ying’s help to solve this little trouble, and in return, they could help expedite the review process.

“Don’t worry, once we’re back to work on the eighth, I’ll submit the materials for you, it’ll definitely be no problem.”

His senior clasped his chest to assure, looking around to make sure no one else was present, then quickly and quietly explained to Chen Ying why they were going through all this trouble.

“That youngster is the cousin of Director Song’s son-in-law, and now his cousin’s family has come knocking, insisting that Director Song find a way to ‘launder’ the origins of this little guy.”

Rubbing his chin, his senior spoke of the moment Director Song came over to discuss solutions with their current director—his face was ghostly white, whether from anger or something else, it looked as though he might need to call an ambulance any second.

“You’re doing this, Director Song’s idea?”

“Exactly. Children are always a parent’s debt. That son-in-law of Director Song’s, well, it’s not for me to judge.”

Chen Ying took the little snake mongoose away, along with its explanatory note and origin certification.

Printed in black and white on the paper was “captured from the wild”; those youngsters dreaming of whitewashing its origins could dream on.

With the addition of the little creature at home, staying put was no longer an option. Since he had to go back to school to see Professor Bai anyway, he simply informed his parents and left by car the next morning.

He left the little creature at the university’s Beast Hospital and then stopped by Professor Bai’s house for a meal.

Upon mentioning the incident, Professor Bai couldn’t help but slam the table in anger.

“What on earth are these youngsters thinking? Isn’t it good enough to keep cats, dogs, lizards, hamsters, and the like? A snake mongoose and venomous snakes—is he tired of living?”

Eldest Sister Bai glared at Chen Ying, trying to soothe her father.

“Don’t get angry with those people, watch your blood pressure. There’s no use advising the damned; if their parents don’t care, why should you bother?”

Still, Professor Bai was angry and lost his appetite.

If the fool wanted to suffer his own consequences, let him, but why should others pick up the tab for his actions?

“Little Ying, didn’t you start some sort of educational account? Spread the word about this, let everyone know the consequences of such actions.”

Eldest Sister Bai glanced at her father helplessly, “Dad, don’t give rash advice. Little Ying could get sued for carelessly revealing someone’s privacy.”

Chen Ying smiled, “No worries, Eldest Sister. Even without Teacher saying so, I had planned to do it. I came over to borrow the school’s lab to make a small educational video about snake mongeese catching snakes and to inform everyone about the dangers of the illegal trade in venomous snakes.”

The online seller was ultimately found to have been privately selling and mailing live animals; though not criminal, his actions were illegal.

Specific handling was left to specialized departments; besides the person involved, no one else could help him.

After mooching a meal at the teacher’s house, Eldest Sister Bai and her husband urged Chen Ying to quickly shoot and release the video to ease her father’s mind.

After three bewilderingly busy days at school, urged by Professor Bai, Chen Ying, with the little snake mongoose in tow, returned to Jiamu Gully Mountain.

“Brother Ying, is this the ‘little thing’ you were talking about?”

Little Sen came over for a look and frowned, “This is so ugly, not even as good-looking as a yellow-throated marten.”

The little snake mongoose seemed to understand Little Sen and opened its mouth in a threatening gesture.

“What are you squawking at? Later, let our Big Cat treat you like a Mouse Bar to eat.”

Little Sen stretched out his finger and tapped the little fellow’s nose with disdain in his voice, but he had already prepared the food that the Snake Mongoose liked and was waiting to feed it.

Old Gao was the one who truly disdained it.

There was no helping it; although called Snake Mongoose, it mainly ate mice and birds.

With it around, the birds at the small building were far from being at peace.

“It’s okay, it’s sensible. I just need to tell it not to catch birds,” he assured.

At least not to catch birds under Old Gao’s watchful eye, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to save it.

The little Snake Mongoose was well-behaved. After staying with Chen Ying for several days and becoming familiar with his scent, it quickly grew accustomed to the environment of the building as well.

“Brother Ying, while you were away these past few days, Jinya and the others hardly came back to eat. I went over to feed the Black Bear Sister twice; the situation isn’t bad, the two bear cubs look chubby and are adorable – you’d want to rub them.”

The winter on the mountain felt a bit long, only gradually warming up in March, and by May, the temperature would finally stabilize.

In previous years, there were instances when it snowed heavily in May, with temperatures behaving like a roller coaster, fluctuating wildly with a discount of ‘twenty off ten’ happening now and then.

Before Chen Ying left, he fitted Big Gold and the Male Lynx with collars.

These two, unlike Jinya and Little Jin, would definitely go wild once mating season arrived. That’s when the collars would become very useful.

“Old Chen, there are a lot of people cursing you under your science popularization account. What’s going on?”

During dinner, Old Gao couldn’t help but asked if he needed help.

“It’s nothing, just encountered an idiot,” he replied.

Chen Ying hadn’t elaborated over the phone, but now he explained the whole situation to them.

“The investigation results came in – those youngsters were illegally trading wildlife and had also purchased venomous snakes online. The Silver Ring species is not protected, so at most they’ll face a fine. However, the trading of Second Nation, that will depend on the final judicial outcome.”

The person who helped them obtain the permits was also held accountable.

His way of getting the permit was different from Chen Ying’s approach.

Chen Ying had all the documentation in order and was also a Veterinarian, applying for the permit in collaboration with Xiaozhai Village of Jiamu Town, merely speeding up the approval process, which was even suggested by the authorities themselves. To put it nicely, it was going through a fast-tracked green channel.

But the permit managed by Director Song’s son-in-law was purely unqualified, handled with fabricated documentation, which was completely different in nature.

In the end, the investigation revealed that Director Song knew his son-in-law helped his brother obtain a permit, but he wasn’t aware of the specifics.

Of course, whether he truly knew or not, only he himself could tell.

Perhaps a little bird had informed Jinya, because before bedtime, Jinya and Little Jin each brought back a hare.

After dropping off the hares, Jinya pounced on Chen Ying and engaged in a bout of cozying up.

Little Jin watched the Snake Mongoose perched on the balcony rail with a scrutinizing gaze.

The little fellow smelled of Chen Ying, and though Little Jin really wanted to gulp it down in one go, if it was something the Two-legged Beast liked, then it would let it be.

Both of them knew the Two-legged Beast had sent away the Little Monkey and that the Old Monkey’s death had deeply saddened him.

If this little creature could make the Two-legged Beast a little happier, then they would spare its life.

With that thought, Little Jin stepped forward and, rather half-heartedly, licked the Snake Mongoose’s little head.

The Snake Mongoose was taken aback: Are you, this full-browed and big-eyed cat, nuts? Do we even know each other that well that you’re licking me?
