I summoned an egg [Interstellar]

"Isn't it the 'ultimate' source?" Shea frowned slightly, feeling that Haines's words were a bit strange.

"Yes." Haines explained, "Uncle found another cub in the foster home. There was a foul smell in that cub's body, and we have brought it back now."

Haines raised his chin lightly, and Shia looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw a small white fur ball in the little Taglar rabbit's nest, one black and one white two fur balls were close to each other. The scene looks very harmonious.

"But apart from this cub, no smell of foul air was found anywhere else." Haynes said, "Whether it's on other cubs, or the daily necessities used by the cubs, as well as their There is no foul smell in the place where the nutrient solution is stored."

Hearing this, Xi Ya breathed a sigh of relief.

As one of the relatively large-scale magic pet breeding centers in the city, there are at least a thousand magic pet cubs in the Morimu breeding center, and among the thousands of cubs, including the little red-horned beast that has been fostered for a week, Only three of them were contaminated with filth, which is already a blessing in misfortune.

This was much better than Shia's worst-case scenario.

The little white Tuggerah rabbit proved their previous guess, that is to say, the little red-horned beast was indeed contaminated by the filthy atmosphere in the Senmu Demon Pet Breeding Center.

However, when Nolan went to the foster home this time, he did not find anything that could be the source, which interrupted their investigation again.

"It is impossible for the foul air to appear out of thin air, but uncle did not find anything contaminated with the foul air, that is to say, that thing may have been destroyed or taken away by someone." Xia Ya murmured, "There is also something Maybe... Could that thing be a one-time consumable? Such as medicine or nutrient solution? After being taken, it doesn’t exist.”

Haines' blue eyes flickered with admiration and affirmation, "Pharmaceuticals, nutrient solution, food, etc., these things are indeed more likely to be the source."

He asked Shia to pass through a private terminal, and found out the information about the little red-horned beast that Shia had recorded before and Eli told them about the little red-horned beast. The daily necessities such as cages, cushions, food boxes and water bottles used by the beasts were all brought by Eli.

The little red-horned beast has a clingy personality. At that time, Eli had to go to other planets for something, and it was really inconvenient to take it with him, so he chose to foster the little red-horned beast in a foster home.

In order to reduce the tension of the little red-horned beast living in a strange environment, Eli specially asked the breeder to use the daily necessities of the little red-horned beast itself, which has its familiar smell and a little bit of Eli's breath left on it. , the familiar taste will make the little red horned beast relax a lot.

In other words, during the time when the little red-horned beast lived in the nursery, it only took the nutrient solution, water, food and other things provided by the nursery, and these things are indeed things that other cubs come into contact with every day.

"Could it be that there is a problem with the business that provides the medicine or nutrient solution to the breeding center?" Shea guessed, "No, if this is the case, it is impossible for only three cubs to be contaminated with filth."

"Only three cubs were recruited, and one of them was a cub in a foster home..." Xi Ya frowned, "How does this feel...is it random? Did someone deliberately place the dirty brought the air into the breeding center, and secretly fed it to those cubs?"

Similar things have not happened before.

Xi Ya has always liked magic pets, and she pays more attention to magic pets and their cubs.

He remembered that in the past two years, he had read a piece of news about magic pets. In the report, a magic pet shop was dissatisfied with another newly opened magic pet shop stealing business, so it quietly gave the newly opened magic pet shop The magic pet cubs in the new store were given medicine to make the magic pet cubs sick. When customers saw the sick cubs, they would naturally not choose to buy them in this store and go to another store instead.

The method was extremely insidious, but fortunately, the owner of the new shop realized something was wrong, and applied for the people from the Magic Pet Protection Association to investigate, and soon found out the truth.

This incident was quite a big deal at the time, so Xi Ya was quite impressed with this incident.

This kind of thing happened in the Senmu Nursery, which reminded Xi Ya of the poisoning case in the magic pet store two years ago.

It's just that, at that time, the victim's magic pet shop was injected with drugs, and what appeared in the Senmu Nurturing Center was filthy air.

Xia pondered for a long time, and later realized that no one around him made a sound, and he was the only one muttering to himself for analysis.

He raised his head in a daze, and saw Haines and the others looking at him quietly.

Xi Ya suddenly became nervous, "Everyone, what are you looking at me for? Is there something I said wrong?"

"No, your analysis is very good." Nolan smiled, "We are just a little surprised."

"On the way back, my uncle and I also analyzed this matter, and the result we got was no different from yours." Haines said, quietly hiding the surprise in his eyes.

This analysis of Xia really surprised Haines, and at the same time made him realize clearly that Xia is indeed not a child who doesn't understand anything and needs to be taken care of everywhere, as he thought. .

In fact, he should have been aware of this matter a long time ago, but if he cared about it, he would be confused. If his uncle hadn't reminded him, he might still not be able to get out of his misunderstanding.

It's not that Shia doesn't know anything, on the contrary, he's actually very smart and has a very good brain, which can be seen from his grades at Corrick College.

As one of the highest schools in the Human Federation, the teaching depth and examination depth of Creek Academy are far more difficult than that of ordinary schools, and in the case of low-altitude flying over and over again in the martial arts exam, Xia can still rank firmly in the grade At the top of the list, he got a scholarship for top students. His intelligence and hard work are self-evident.

The only thing Shia lacks is some experience in society, experience in dealing with people.

As for these, Xi Ya didn't have much contact with them in school. She could only learn a lot after entering the society, slowly scrambling, and accumulating some experience after falling down a few times.

However, Haynes felt that after experiencing the last Kings incident, Shia should not trust others as foolishly as before.

Shea did a good job when she signed a contract with Domini's Rescue Station.

Thinking of this, Haines lowered his eyes, and a touch of relief flashed across his eyes.

Shia didn't notice the changing emotions in Haines' eyes. After hearing what Haines said, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then let's go to investigate the period of time. And outsiders who have entered the breeding area of ​​​​Tagra rabbit cubs and red horned cubs?"

Speaking of this, Xi Ya frowned again: "But that was almost a month ago, and the little red-horned beast was fostered in the nursing home for a week, and the outsiders who came to the nursing home during that week must not Not much, do you want to screen and ask questions one by one?"

"Also, the people in the foster care center won't give us the list of visitors from outsiders easily, right?"

This is indeed a problem, Haines and Shia looked at each other, lowered their chins and pondered.

If the filthy air is really fed to those magic pet cubs intentionally, it means that the filthy air can be manipulated by people, and some people with malicious intentions have already controlled the filthy air and are using it They do some shady things.

Therefore, their investigation must be as concealed as possible, so that too many people cannot detect it, let alone too many irrelevant people know that they have already noticed the existence of the dirty air, and even have the ability to deal with the dirty air. to eliminate.

The two times Haines went to the Forest Nursery, the reason he used was to bring new magic pet cubs home, and he did bring the magic pet cubs back these two times.

There are not many people who go directly to the magic pet nursery to buy cubs. It is not surprising that there is more Haines, but it is different when they ask about the list of visitors.

They had to find a suitable reason for the people in the orphanage to hand over the visitor list to them without any suspicion.

"How about...how about asking Sister Nora if there is any way?" Shea suggested, "Haynes, didn't you say before that Miss Nora has a lot of connections here? Sister Nora might have something Method?"

Hearing this, Haines paused, then smiled: "You reminded me."

As he spoke, he took out the terminal, "If Nora came forward, this matter should be handled easily."

Shia looked over curiously, and saw that Haynes clicked on the chat box with Miss Nora, sent her a few messages, and asked her if there was a way to get the list of visitors from the Senmu Oratory. And do not arouse their suspicion.

It took several minutes for Miss Nora to reply with a message.

Nora: 【You really asked the right person about this. 】

Nora: [You don't need to find an orphanage, I can get it for you. 】

Nora: 【Every once in a while, the foster home must submit a copy of relevant information to the Magic Pet Protection Association, and the records of visits from outsiders are also included in the submitted information. 】

Nora: 【If you are in a hurry, I will log in to the background of the association to download a copy and send it to you later. 】

Seeing this, Xi Ya was shocked: "Miss Nora is still a member of the Magic Pet Protection Association?"

Haines: "Yes, that's why I said last time that it's no problem to ask Nora to help with the magic pet. She is an elder of the Magic Pet Protection Association."

An elder-level figure of the Magic Pet Protection Association.

Shia repeated it in her heart, feeling her expression was a little stiff.

He guessed that Miss Nora's identity was not simple, but he never expected that Miss Nora would be so difficult.

It is really incredible for Xi Ya that an elder-level character is willing to stay in this small magic pet shop.

But this can explain why Miss Nora doesn't care whether the store can bring her profit. In addition to fulfilling the wish of an old friend, it is also because Miss Nora herself does not need this profit.

Xi Ya sighed in her heart, quietly raised her eyes and glanced at the people around her, then lowered her eyes silently.

The people living in this magic pet shop now seem to be ordinary people except him.

No matter which one reveals their identity to the outside world, their jaws will drop in shock.

Even Gard is the same, no matter how unreliable he is, he is still a real dragon, a dragon that countless people pursue and worship.

Miss Nora's magic pet shop... is really scary.
