Xia Xin felt that the person before her had completely lost control. She could reasonably guess that Tang Hai must have some mental issues. The drastic shifts in his emotions indicated that there was something wrong with his mental state.
Xia Xin didn’t want to listen to Tang Hai continue speaking. By now, the security guards should have arrived. She looked at Tang Hai and said, “If you have something to say, go to the police station and talk to the police. Yes, we’re just ordinary people. We can’t communicate with someone like you, who thinks so highly of themselves. You should reflect on your life in prison and stop disturbing ours! ”
Tang Hail s expression turned cold and asked, “What have you done?”
As Tang Hai was about to charge forward, the security guards arrived in time. They grabbed one of Tang Hai’s arms each and escorted him to the security office, waiting for the police to take him away.
With solid evidence now, Tang Hai had no escape.
After dealing with Tang Hai, the next thing needed to do was to quickly secure the escaped animals to the zoo.
Xia Xin said, “Mr. Lu, I’ll organize the keepers to help catch the animals. Please arrange for the cages to be repaired as soon as possible to prevent them from escaping again.”
Lu Yuan sat down, heaving a sigh of relief. He said, “Sure, go handle it. I’ll take care of the rest.
When Xia Xin walked out of the office and reached the animal areas, chaos reigned. Security guards were directing visitors to leave the zoo in an orderly manner, while the remaining staff were chasing after the animals.
Hippos, elephants, and giraffes were all wandering around the zoo, minding their own business.
Xia Xin could control young animals, but she didn’t know if it would work on such large animals. Regardless, she was going to give it a shot.
Using her mental powers, Xia Xin first guided the hippos and giraffes back to their enclosures along the designated zoo paths. Then she carefully approached the elephant, making sure not to startle it and end up getting kicked by accident.
Curious, the elephant moved its trunk around, looking around, and asked, “Are you Xia Xin?”
Xia Xin was surprised that the elephant remembered her. During her visits to various enclosures, she had spent about a week in the elephant area.
Xia Xin said, “Yes, it’s me. Why did you all come out? Quickly return to your enclosures. Your presence here can scare people!”
The elephant explained, “It’s not that we wanted to escape. Someone lured us out, and after we came out, we couldn’t find our way back.”
Xia Xin reassured, “It’s alright, I’ll guide you back.”
The elephant added, “I saw a white tiger escape from its enclosure earlier. However, it passed by me in a flash, so I don’t know where it went.”
‘A tiger!’ Xia Xin was shocked.
Other animals were manageable, at least they were docile herbivores that wouldn’t harm people. But tigers were different; they were carnivores. If a tiger encountered people, it would definitely pose a threat to visitors.
Xia Xin asked, “Which direction did you see the tiger go?”
Using its trunk, the elephant pointed in a direction. Xia Xin quickly told the elephant, “Your enclosure is straight along the way with balloons.”
Then, Xia Xin hurriedly went after the tiger.
The very thing Xia Xin was concerned about happened. When she found the tiger, it was approaching a person.
With elegant strides, the tiger gradually closed in on the terrified person, as if savoring the struggle of its prey before it died.
Xia Xin ran closer and only then saw that the person on the ground pushing backward with her feet was Gao Xin.
Xia Xin hurried over and stood between Gao Xin and the tiger.
“Calm down!” Xia Xin said. The words weren’t directed at Gao Xin, but at the white tiger before her.
Xia Xin’s abrupt movement startled the tiger, making it somewhat agitated. It roared but then stopped and actually calmed down.
The zoo was filled with screams. Other visitors must have heard the tiger’s roar and were scared, crying out in fear.
Xia Xin tried to use the Beast Language System to warn the tiger not to harm anyone. But the tiger innocently responded, “I’m hungry and need to eat. Move out of the way quickly, or I might eat you too.”
The tiger’s roar had attracted more people, including the tiger keeper and Jing MO, who was searching for Gao Xin.
Xia Xin didn’t have time to explain. She said to Jing MO, “Quickly take Gao Xin away..”
