Chapter 9: Dr. Bai's Pet

Chapter 9: Dr. Bai's Pet

The nurse behind Dr. Bai lifted Jiang Su onto a stretcher and sent him to the medical department. There was a medical department inside the Pet Center, and it was no different from a formal hospital.

Song Tiantian ran along behind them. She had almost caused his death; she had to stay by his side. Once he opened his eyes, he would see her hard work, and she could explain things then.

Dr. Bai actually followed Song Tiantian as well.

"Song Tiantian, I watched your livestream. Like a bird leaving a sound and wind leaving a trace, you've made quite an impression. Go get a vial of blood drawn; I'll help you check if there are any residual toxins. Since you are already my employee, I will take responsibility for your health."

"Thank you, Doctor, but I went to the hospital to get blood tests right after leaving the exam hall, and the hospital said there was nothing wrong."

Song Tiantian was unprepared and thanked Dr. Bai with sincerity.

Mainly because three months had passed, and through metabolism, everything was gone. Even if she drew blood now, it wouldn't show anything, and drawing blood hurt!

【Hahaha! Those idiots actually think they can test for my Master's awakening serum.】

What was that sound? Song Tiantian looked around and suddenly noticed a white lotus in Dr. Bai's hand.

The white lotus emitted a clear light, which fell upon Jiang Su's body.

"Heh! How could those people have my ability? Just because they can't test for it doesn't mean I can't."

【This Jiang Su is clearly just a low-tier loser. His talent actually increased to mid-tier; how is that possible? Clearly, that experiment failed so many times, and my Master never succeeded once. Those papers were even banned by those wastes, and my Master was driven to this desolate wasteland.

He could only secretly disguise the awakening serum as poison and sell it on the black market.

Anyway, since those people were going to be poisoned to death anyway, they might as well strive for one chance to awaken; it counts as a contribution to my Master.】

"Doctor, is this white lotus your pet?"

"It is!"

"Plants can become pets too!"

【How ignorant, what an uncultured bumpkin. However, she is truly lucky. She drank my Master's awakening serum and nothing happened to her; she's the only one among everyone who survived. My Master was planning to give up and re-research the formula, but fortunately, her sister and mother came here to cause trouble, letting my Master know that there was actually a living experimental subject.

The aura on her is so rich; she must have successfully changed her talent.

No, she might have had mid-tier talent before, and now it has become high-tier talent.

No wonder those pets have a good impression of her. If I hadn't contracted with Master, I'd want to contract with this bumpkin too. Bumpkins have high talent but no knowledge, making them easy to fool!】

"Pets are strange and varied; they come in all sorts of forms."

Dr. Bai's attitude toward Song Tiantian was a few degrees warmer than yesterday.

At the very least, his tone was softer, and his gaze lingered on Song Tiantian as if he were looking at some precious treasure.

As Dr. Bai spoke, he picked up a syringe and gestured with his eyes for Song Tiantian to roll up her sleeve.

"Doctor, my health isn't good. My family is poor, and I haven't eaten well since I was a child. I lack vital energy, I'm anemic, and I'm malnourished. Let's not draw blood!"

As Song Tiantian spoke, she raised her right hand, rubbing her thumb with her index and middle fingers.

【Is this woman's hand itchy? Why does she keep rubbing her fingers together while talking?!】

Hearing Song Tiantian's refusal, Dr. Bai frowned. He hadn't expected her to refuse.

Song Tiantian also hadn't expected Dr. Bai to be so stupid that he failed to understand her meaning.

Then again, a man who strictly followed feeding standards by giving a Snow Lion fifty grams of beast fodder for a long time—driving the beast mad—what kind of intelligence could such a person possibly have?

But she couldn't point it out directly.

This Dr. Bai was so malicious, daring to perform human experiments directly; he was incredibly wicked. If she called him out, what if he sought revenge against her?

Song Tiantian emphasized her tone: "Once I lose blood, I will definitely suffer from a deficiency in both qi and blood. A deficiency in qi and blood requires nutritional supplementation! But I..."

"I'll give you a thousand to buy nutritional supplements!"

"Doctor, have you not gone out for a long time? Do you not understand the prices outside!"

A single Snow Lion sold for a hundred million, yet he offered her a thousand yuan. How could this man do such a thing?

"There is medicine in the pharmacy. I will personally write a prescription for you. Go get the medicine."

【Holy crap! That movement was actually the gesture for counting money. Luckily this beast is smart; it was so subtle that an ordinary person really wouldn't notice.】

【Hahaha, my Master is so clever, giving the medicine for the aftermath to this silly girl as well. This silly girl has truly hit the jackpot; this medicine is to soothe turbulent mental strength.】

"Thank you, Dr. Bai!"

What else could Song Tiantian say?

At this moment, she was certain.

Dr. Bai was the one who drugged Song Jiaojiao. Otherwise, he wouldn't have produced a thousand yuan and offered medicine to eat just for one vial of blood, which wouldn't even require supplementation.

However, it wasn't the time to offend Dr. Bai. If she made more demands, he would surely become suspicious.

Dr. Bai drew one vial of Song Tiantian's blood and one vial of Jiang Su's blood.

Watching Dr. Bai leave, Song Tiantian was truly exhausted. She slumped by Jiang Su's bed and fell asleep.

In a single day, she had experienced far too much.

Song Tiantian woke up after only three or four hours of sleep. There was no food left in the cafeteria at this hour. In front of the vending machine, Song Tiantian bought two cups of instant noodles. It was so dark here; a cup of instant noodles actually cost ten yuan, whereas it was only five yuan outside.

"(╯▽╰) So fragrant~~"

"You're awake! I've prepared the noodles; eat something to line your stomach!"

Song Tiantian originally thought one cup wouldn't be enough, so she prepared two.

Unexpectedly, the aroma of the noodles woke Jiang Su up.

Jiang Su took the noodles and finished them in a few bites. He felt incredibly, incredibly hungry!

Then, the two of them went to the vending machine together.

Song Tiantian ate another cup and was full.

But Jiang Su was still eating.

Song Tiantian was stunned as she watched him go through a full hundred cups of instant noodles.

There were also countless spicy strips and hot dogs.

Toward the end, Song Tiantian began to worry if something was wrong with Jiang Su's body.

But Jiang Su remained very calm. He threw a punch at the floor, and the bluestone slab actually shattered under his fist.

"Tiantian, this is normal. After becoming a Beast Tamer, consumption is high, so the energy that needs to be absorbed also becomes greater. I feel terrifyingly strong right now."

"Jiang Su, I'm sorry! Actually, I don't know much about beast taming either. Dr. Bai said that for a first-time opening, if the pet space is ten square meters, that's a genius. I don't know anything; I just thought that since pets need to eat, drink, and play inside, the space should be a bit larger.

And I heard that you can even farm inside the pet space. If it's bigger, you can plant some vegetables. In case of an emergency, you'll have something to eat and won't starve to death!"

"You said a genius Beast Tamer's first pet space opening is only ten square meters?"

"I'm sorry!" Actually, Dr. Bai had said an *average* Beast Tamer, but Song Tiantian had changed "average" to "genius."
