The Civil Servant's Job is to Raise The Furries!-Chapter 79: Fur Farm

Legitimate fur farms wouldn’t capture wild animals, unless they wanted a prison sentence.

This fur farm must be a black workshop, who knows how many little animals are being locked up in there.

Could the fox cubs’ mother be trapped in this farm by the furry coats?

"Of course I can, I am an animal rescuer officially from Huaxia, responsible for combating poachers and protecting wild animals."

Xu Ying suppressed her excitement and asked these little fellows for clues: "Do you remember the appearance of the vehicle you were in?"

[It was a big blue truck, very dirty. There were two people who captured us; one was bald and the other had a crew cut and wore sunglasses.]

Xu Ying upon hearing this sent a message to Chief of Police Chen Su at the police station, asking about common brands and models of blue trucks in Yisha City.

The police station had handled numerous illegal transportation cases, surely they would know of the relevant details, or could seek help from traffic police.

[There were lots of iron cages in the truck’s carriage, it seems they caught not only the Snow Cleaning Weasel but also snow foxes and lynx cats.]

"Do you remember the license plate number?"

Xu Ying went to the office and borrowed a printer, then brought back ten A4 papers, each with numbers from "0-9."

Many animals have the ability to perceive numbers, able to tell different quantities or count peers, either instinctively or through conditioned reflexes, unlike humans with abstract mathematical skills.

They didn’t recognize human Arabic numerals, to them these numbers were incomprehensible symbols.

Xu Ying could only hope they’d recognize some numerical patterns: "There is a yellow plate at the front and the rear of the truck, with a string of numbers – it’s the license plate number."

She arranged the number cards in front of the Snow Cleaning Weasels: "We can find this truck based on the license plate number, do you remember any numbers?"

The numerical patterns indeed seemed abstract to the Snow Cleaning Weasels; the seven "Snow Whites" stared widely for a long time.

[There’s this stick and this egg.]

They patted the zero and one patterns with their paws, as these two were the simplest and most recognizable.

Xu Ying couldn’t help but laugh at the description from the Snow Cleaning Weasels, their method of speaking was charmingly childlike.

[The stick pattern is at the end.]

Confirmed, the last number in the license plate is one.

Then, Xu Ying tried the same method with Yisha City’s license plate characters and letters "Xi P": "Are the starting characters of the license plate these two symbols?"

She could only hope that the vehicle’s plate was indeed local, or the eighteen prefectures and districts of Xizhou Province with eighteen letters might confuse the Snow Whites.

The Snow Cleaning Weasels gathered together to discuss and piece together the information, then nodded vigorously: [Yes!]

Xu Ying breathed a sigh of relief, it made sense, since it was a black-hearted workshop, they’d likely choose a local plate; otherwise, a vehicle with a non-local plate frequently traveling in Desert Area might attract attention.

Just then, Chen Su also sent over the images and models of common blue trucks in Yisha City, there were actually only five models available.

The Snow Cleaning Weasels quickly recognized the truck they were loaded onto.

[That’s the one! When we rolled off the truck, we hurried to hide in the dunes, only after watching the truck drive away and disappear did we dare to move.]

Though the complete license plate couldn’t be pieced together, with the truck model plus the last digit of the license plate, she could dispatch her airborne scouts broadly, hopefully finding it!

"You’ve worked hard, little ones, get some rest. I’ll do my best to rescue your companions and bring you back together to Snow Mountain."

[You’re so nice, sister!!]

[Sister, once we’re back at Snow Mountain, we’ll give you a gift to thank you~]

Xu Ying chuckled and shook her head: "No need for gifts, as long as you’re safe and sound, I’m very happy~"

The Snow Cleaning Weasels nudged Xu Ying’s palm with their heads, the smile on Xu Ying’s lips couldn’t be suppressed. The fur of the Snow Cleaning Weasels was light and soft, not as fluffy or thick as the foxes’, but smooth, glossy, and comfortable to touch.

Being close to these fluffy creatures was truly happiness!

At this moment, Zhuo Yi walked in carrying a test report, seeing Xu Ying cuddling with the Snow Cleaning Weasels, she was envious to death.

"The blood test results for the Snow Cleaning Weasels are out. Two of them have stomach function chaos due to heatstroke, they may need more care and attention to eating."

For easy distinction, they wore number tags around their necks. Zhuo Yi checked the report, pointing to the ones with numbers "3" and "7."

The two specifically to be cared for tilted their heads.

One of them, with a dazed look, seemed a bit silly and cute, hugged Zhuo Yi’s finger with its two little paws: [Is this okay? I haven’t eaten in a long time~]

"No, no, this young lady is also here to treat you, don’t bite her."

The Snow Cleaning Weasels seemed soft and cuddly, but their personality wasn’t as docile and clingy as the ear foxes; they had a stronger aggressive nature and were somewhat mischievous.

Xu Ying hurriedly grabbed its two mischievous paws, "I’ll get you food right away, don’t nibble on people."

For their rescuer, of course, the Snow Cleaning Weasels were obedient.

Snow Cleaning Weasels’ primary diet includes small mice, but they also eat birds, rabbits, insects, and fish; their diet is diverse and carnivorous.

Xu Ying thought the little mice were truly miserable, truly the small residents at the bottom of the food chain.

The staff at the main station provided the Snow Cleaning Weasels with fish meat, which was soft and digestible. They were used to mice but enjoyed a change; the little ones ate delightedly.

As the sky outside the rescue station darkened, Xu Ying knew she wouldn’t make it back to the rescue station today, and needed to stay overnight at the temporary dormitory at the main station, she called volunteer Ling Yu to instruct today’s tasks.

Ling Yu had been at the rescue station for a while, already familiarly handling these daily tasks. Xu Ying felt assured.

As Ling Yu was about to hang up, she asked: "Little Xu Station Chief, Coach Zhuang will arrive at the rescue station tomorrow, and will stay with me, won’t disturb you, you don’t mind, do you?"

Xu Ying: "Of course, I don’t mind! You’re competing in less than a month, having Coach Zhuang accompany is certainly better."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ying started looking forward to the track meet in Luocheng early December, she definitely would watch the live stream!

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ying was called by Qi Xingchen to dine together, the main station’s treatment was certainly better, they even hired villagers nearby to cook, dinner was braised pork and salted egg yolk eggplant, very fragrant, Xu Ying had two bowls of rice.

After dinner, Xu Ying took a walk and moved about in the main yard of the rescue station to help digestion.

Zhuo Yi hurriedly ran over, saying to her: "Little Xu Station Chief, the lynx has woken from anesthesia, exhibiting some strange reactions, constantly growling, it’s quite frightening, and doesn’t quite cooperate with medication application, you should go take a look."
