Chapter 1116: Tortured! (No)
Awakened by the explosion, the first person to arrive at the scene was Ansel, who was wearing pajamas and a nightcap.
Sterling Mansion and Pork Chop's house are both located outside the Star Base, not far away in a straight line. He rode the Gale all the way here and arrived faster than the sheriff on night patrol.
Noticing the traces of the explosion outside the window of Pork Chop's house, Ansel breathed a sigh of relief.
The traces were outside the house. Did he throw the explosives out before the explosion?
The injury should not be serious, but there were two sounds before and after the explosion. I don't know what happened. I hope the cat is okay.
Ansel pushed open the door of Pork Chop's house.
He was mentally prepared to see Pork Chop sitting in the ruins, dealing with his wounds with a dusty face, or even lying on the ground and unconscious.
However, the scene in front of him still shocked his spirit.
Pork Chop was indeed dusty, but he should not have been injured.
At this time, it was excitedly prying open the mushroom's mouth, pulling open the latter's tongue, scraping the mushroom's tongue coating with a small piece of clean wood, and collecting saliva samples.
The mushroom "hummed" aggrievedly, looking very reluctant.
"."
After two seconds of silence, Anshil cleared his throat and reminded: "Pork Chop, the sheriffs are coming, you will be locked up if you are seen like this."
Pork Chop then noticed Anshil's arrival, and it meowed excitedly, "Explosion meow! The ancient slime mold was activated by a lick from the mushroom meow, its saliva must have something special meow!"
Although it was a bit incoherent, after listening to Pig Chop's words, Anshil roughly restored the cause of the incident.
As for the possibility of "bullying" and "harassment", he didn't think much about it.
"Anyway, let go of the mushroom first."
"Ah, sorry meow, I was too excited meow." Pig Chop stepped back awkwardly.
Mushroom shrank into the corner in fear, and his impression of "Pig Chop Senior" plummeted.
In the following period of time, people came to check the situation. After learning that the explosion was an experimental accident, the sheriff in charge of patrol reprimanded Pig Chop and warned him to pay attention to the safety of the experiment.
Not long after, Gordon Hayata also came over. They heard the sound of explosions coming from Pig Chop's house, and they came to see it because they were worried.
After sending the sheriff away with a smile, Gordon punched Pig Chop on the head, "What kind of experiment are you doing in the middle of the night?!"
"Meow" Pig Chop held his head, not knowing where to explain for a while.
Ansel told Pig Chop about his "bullying" of Mushroom, causing Pig Chop to be scolded by Hayata again.
In the middle of the night, he invited an underage girl to his home alone to help with the experiment, and then opened her mouth to collect saliva or something.
It's unbelievable!
Pork Chop, who had made significant progress in the research, wanted to strike while the iron was hot and leave Mushroom to complete the next experiment overnight, but was kicked into the cat's nest by the angry Hayata.
"I'll settle accounts with you after dawn!" After glaring at Pork Chop, Hayata picked up Mushroom, who was curled up beside him, and pushed the door open with a cold snort.
After Hayata left, Gordon looked at Pork Chop rolling around in the cat's nest, looking anxious, and asked with a dry smile, "Well, Pork Chop, you shouldn't have done anything strange, right?"
"Strange things. Meow! I almost forgot meow!"
Pork Chop suddenly remembered something and jumped out of the cat's nest. He ran to the alchemy table and carefully collected the only saliva sample, then turned around and asked, "What do you mean by strange things, meow?"
Gordon and Ansel looked at each other, and then they both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Nothing, go to sleep."
"You can be spared the death penalty, but you have to take some punishment."
".Meow meow?"
Due to a series of accidents that happened last night, Feng Ying temporarily canceled the mission.
After confirming from the cat in question that Pig Chop really didn't do anything strange, Pig Chop was found not guilty, but he couldn't escape the reprimand from Hayata.
After that, Xianglan rode Amber and chased it for a long time, saying that she wanted to vent her anger on her disciple Mushroom, and didn't let it go until noon.
After being forgiven, Pig Chop was finally able to put his energy back into the research of ancient slime mold.
However, what surprised it was that the saliva samples collected by it that almost made it be labeled as "perverted" did not work, and the slime mold that came into contact with it showed no signs of being activated.
Considering that it might be due to the inactivation of the components, Pig Chop had to find Mushroom again and ask for help in the research.
Faced with the sincere request of the senior, Mushroom finally agreed, but this time Xianglan also followed and said that she would monitor Pig Chop to prevent it from messing around.
Pig Chop didn't care. As long as he could continue to study the mushroom's saliva, everything else would be fine.
But an unexpected situation occurred.
For some reason, the mushroom's saliva could not activate the slime mold. Pig Chop, who didn't believe in evil, took several more slime mold samples and asked the mushroom to lick them over and over again.
Until the mushroom's tongue was dry, nothing happened.
The hope that was finally seen was extinguished. Pig Chop, who couldn't stand the blow, fell into a gray-white state, and even the mushroom felt a little ashamed and depressed.
"Stupid Pig Chop meow." Xianglan licked her paw, "You can't research it yourself, why don't you ask scholars for help meow?"
"I've asked them a long time ago meow." Pig Chop was lost, "Everyone from the Institute of Plant Biology and the Institute of Ecology has helped to check the slime mold meow.
But they don't have a clue meow. The scholars are very busy, and it's impossible to bother them all the time meow."
"Did you look for them after the explosion yesterday?"
"Meow?" Pig Chop suddenly sat up straight, "No, meow, that's right! I should have taken a saliva sample to them for testing first!
But the samples were all used up at that time." Pig Chop was depressed again.
"It's better than not being able to think of anything yourself, meow!" Xianglan stepped on the tip of Pig Chop's limp tail and ran away.
Although it knew nothing about alchemy and blending, it was thick-skinned and came all the way to the Ecological Research Institute and looked around.
The director didn't dare to disturb, the research team leader didn't dare to disturb, Alva. This one can be caught!
After shouting "Pig Chop, please help me, meow!", he pulled the confused Alva to the test site.
Pig Chop forced himself to cheer up and told Alva about what happened yesterday and today, picking out the useful things.
Originally, it didn't have any expectations, but after a brief thought, Alva provided it with a brand new idea.
"Maybe it's not just the saliva, maybe something mixed with the saliva played a decisive role."
Alva smiled and said, "For example, what did Mushroom eat last night and didn't eat today."
Pork Chop looked at Mushroom with a bang. Mushroom, who was already traumatized by this look, quickly hid behind Xianglan.
"What did you eat yesterday?" Pork Chop asked eagerly, "No matter what it was, water counts, as long as it has entered your mouth, it counts!"
Mushroom held his head and began to recall, "In the morning, it was stewed fish, bread and corn flakes, at noon it was grilled steak, salad of lettuce and tender potatoes, mushroom soup, orange juice, and grilled apples, and in the evening it was very good hamburger meat, cheese, bacon, and tomato and sausage soup, and oatmeal and milk porridge? And candy given by the owner."
Pork Chop carefully recorded everything.
Although he ate a lot, they were all common food dishes. Maybe when some things are combined, special substances will be generated?
Xianglan's expression also became subtle. This little guy hasn't learned the common language yet. He usually speaks incoherently and his pronunciation is not clear.
But why is he so clear when talking about food?
"That's all, meow?" Zhuchou asked to confirm.
Mushroom nodded, but then said uncertainly, "And before Wansang lay down to sleep, did he drink two bottles of nutrition? Fengyingsuo can promote the growth of the body, meow?"
Zhuchou and Alva looked at each other.
Their intuition told them that this was it!
