After putting Little Jin and Little Bai in the Snake Research Institute, Chen Ying brought the albino hedgehog and the little flying squirrel to handle some business at the Forestry and Grassland Bureau.
To take these little fellows away, he needed a legitimate reason.
Luckily, Researcher Xiao testified for him, stating it was a white cobra that had bitten the hedgehog, requiring medical treatment and observation.
As for the little flying squirrel being prey for Little Jin and not on the protected list, using it for research purposes was fine as long as it was eventually released back into the wild.
Upon arriving at the Forestry and Grassland Bureau, the gatekeeper told him that there was a meeting in progress and he would have to wait a while to conduct his business.
Just as he finished speaking, Chen Ying saw someone come out of the restroom at the end of the hallway on the second floor, glance at the main entrance below, and show a surprised expression.
