Chapter 55: Premeditation

  With an excited heart, I rushed all the way and quickly found the place where I was locked up last time based on my memory. When it was less than 100 meters away, I didn't rush in anxiously, but quietly observed this place.

  After all, I was still anxious. But I also had to prioritize safety first. A while later, I felt that there wasn't any danger inside, so I crawled in at this time.

  When I climbed to the edge of that cage, my heart was trembling. I was afraid that once I looked inside, I would find that White Snake was not there. I took a deep breath and then crawled to the hole where food was usually thrown in. I quickly looked inside for White Snake's figure.

  Suddenly, I saw it in a corner, the white snake that I was most familiar with. It was curled up in the corner, and there were several other snakes next to it. The boss must have brought some other snakes after I escaped.

  Nor did I know that the white snake had made new friends. I forgot that I was an old friend, and when I saw the snakes looking around, it also noticed the movement at this time, gently raised its head to look over, but at that moment, it seemed to have recognized me at a glance.

  "Hiss"

  It spat out Xizi, and suddenly shot up from the ground. It forgot that it was still in the cage, so it wanted to pounce on me. But when it fell back down from mid-air, it finally realized that it was still locked in the cage.

  But it didn't mind, instead asking: "Is it you who has returned?"

  "My heart was also uneasy at this time, and I replied: 'It's me, you still remember me? I've come to rescue you. How have you been lately?'"

  It shook its snake head and said: "Good, I'm good. I've been waiting for you to come back all the time. I thought you encountered danger after going out, so my heart has never been at ease."

  I was deeply moved by its concern. After a while, I told it: "Wait for me, I'll go find something to save you."

  After finishing speaking, I looked at this gate. Although it can be knocked open, I was afraid of making a loud noise and startling them. So I prepared to find a bamboo pole or something similar, then climb up to the air vent on top and put it down for it to crawl up. However, after turning around inside for a while, I didn't see anything like a bamboo pole.

  Suddenly, I saw another room's light was still on, and I wondered: "Why are these guys still awake so late?"

  I perked up my ears and listened for a moment, and inside I could still hear the sound of conversation. Suddenly I became interested, so I quickly crawled over and looked in through the window.

  All I saw was the boss who locked me up sitting on the sofa, with another person sitting across from him. However, that person's face was somewhat pale, making them look a bit like a zombie from TV, but they didn't appear to be very old, probably under 40 years old.

  At this time, the boss said to that person: "Mr. Yamamoto, I'm afraid I need to consider this matter again, what do you mean?"

  The man who was as pale as a zombie was called Yamamoto. Just by the name, you could tell he was from Japan. I don't know what he's doing here.

  At this time, the man surprisingly said in fluent Chinese: "Respectful boss, is there anything to consider about this matter? Last time you provided us with pictures, didn't that mean letting us catch these animals? Why are you saying to consider again now?"

  The boss smiled: "Hehe, Mr. Yamamoto, you're joking. Last time I provided pictures to you, mainly to see your prices. Of course, you know that these animals are not ordinary."

  Yamamoto also smiled and said, "Haha, so the old boss is still worried about the price, don't worry about this, our boss said that as long as you bring us to catch those few animals, you can name your own price"

  "Oh, haha, you say that and I feel at ease. However, I still have to remind Mr. Yamamoto that these animals are not simple, they're all ferocious beasts!" The boss seemed to warn with a somewhat uneasy tone.

  I didn't know what kind of animal these guys were talking about, did another fierce beast appear and run out so many fierce beasts again?

  Yamamoto said, "As for this point, you can also rest assured that our boss's developed weapons are still capable of capturing fierce beasts, and compared to the equipment of Dr. Smith from the United States, it is not much different."

  The name Smith sounds familiar, I think I heard it from those poachers in the forest last time, they said he's an expert on studying wild beasts and ferocious animals, do they have some connection?

  At this time, the boss nodded and said: "Hmm, Dr. Smith is indeed not bad. In fact, at first I was going to give these intelligence to him, but thinking about it, our relationship is closer, after all, the water doesn't flow into someone else's field."

  Grass, hearing this guy say that, I really want to rush in and bite him to death. The fat water doesn't flow into the outsider's field, but they've actually called these little devils into their own home to catch animals from their own country, and yet they still speak so loftily.

  "Ha ha, Mr. Jing said it right! If we can successfully catch those animals this time, our relationship will be even closer. By the way, when are you going to take me to see them?"

  The boss waved his hand and said, "This is not urgent for now. I heard that the provincial government is also investigating this matter. They even sent troops there a while ago, but I found out that they didn't catch those ferocious beasts, instead, they lost men, so I'm afraid if we run into them again, we'll be in big trouble."

  Upon hearing this, I trembled in my snake body. What he said seemed off, yet somehow it sounded so familiar to me. I didn't make a sound or move, and immediately continued listening intently.

  Upon hearing this, Yamamoto also raised an eyebrow and said: "Respected boss, from what you're saying, since there's a unit intervening, do you think we still have a chance? Why didn't you tell us earlier?"

  The boss smiled and didn't seem to mind: "Hehe, Mr. Yamamoto, don't be in a hurry, I've investigated this matter, they went into that forest not to catch those fierce beasts, but just for this snake, look at this"

  After finishing, the boss took out a photo and pointed it to him. I also noticed that photo, although it was far away and not very clear, but I could still recognize it. The animals on it were actually me, Giant Ape, and that Firebird.

  It suddenly dawned on me that this guy must have inadvertently seen the video of someone from that academy running up to the mountain last time, so he sent us over.

  This guy probably found a way to find several eyewitnesses from that college, and somehow managed to get our hideout out of them. He knows we've become violent beasts, but he doesn't dare come up and catch us himself, so he's teamed up with this Yamamoto-san to catch us, and also wants to make a big profit. Now I know, this place isn't some kind of zoo at all, and it seems that guy is not just raising snakes after all.

  As I expected, the boss said: "Mr. Yamamoto, look at this snake on top, it has a grudge against some big shot in their unit, so they secretly dispatched troops to surround and capture it. Of course, this giant ape and firebird are precious animals, not only will they not be harmed, but they will also be protected. Once the wind dies down, we'll make our move."

  As soon as I heard, a chill ran through my eyes. These bastards are actually plotting against the giant ape and firebird. If I hadn't come to hear this today, it seems that the giant apes would have been in real danger.

  However, I later retracted my intention to kill them because at that time I was there to rescue the White Snake. If I were to fight with them now, it's said they have some sort of weapon; if we didn't succeed in killing them, then today the White Snake would not be able to be rescued.

  Thinking of this, I immediately swallowed my anger and stared at them fiercely. Then I thought of a way to rescue the White Snake. Once I rescued the White Snake, it would be their death sentence.

  I climbed into the backyard and searched again, finally finding a bamboo pole that looked like it was used by the boss's two subordinates to hang clothes in the backyard.

  I climbed up the shelf and pushed down the bamboo pole, then wrapped it around my tail and slowly dragged it towards the cage. Fortunately, at this late hour, except for the boss who was still negotiating with Yamamoto, the two subordinates were asleep.

  No one would have thought that someone would come to steal their snake in the middle of the night, so they weren't on guard either. This actually made it easier for me to rescue the White Snake.
