"Oh, I see," Chu Lingwei said anxiously. She glanced at the orphanage gate and said, "I wonder if they've flown inside and are hiding. I'll go in and take a look. If that doesn't work, we'll have to ask someone to help us search."

A-Zhuang could tell that Chu Lingwei was indeed very anxious because she couldn't find the parrot.

Could this parrot really be Chu Lingwei's?
The client hadn't had much contact with Chu Lingwei, so he certainly didn't know anything about her.

However, regardless of whether the parrot belongs to the other party or not, she cannot give it to them.

If I remember correctly, the parrot had no markings on its legs and looked quite disheveled; it must have had a rough time before.

"Is this the person who owns you?" A-Zhuang asked the parrot in the space, who was sitting by the water grooming its feathers.

Upon seeing Chu Lingwei outside, the parrot immediately denied it: "No, I don't know this woman. I'm probably not her lost parrot. It's just a coincidence that we bumped into each other."

Is that so?
But A-Zhou didn't think there were so many coincidences.

Since the parrot doesn't belong to Chu Lingwei, she's even less likely to reveal any information.

"Come on, let's get to work. Help me process all the footage of this parrot that appeared on the nearby surveillance cameras." A-Zhen called out to 997. With Chu Lingwei's status, she had plenty of ways to get her hands on these surveillance videos.

Until she figured out what was going on, she felt it was best not to reveal the parrot's existence.

[Received! You can rest assured, host.] 997 perked up; finally, he had something to do. He promised to erase every trace of this parrot from all the surveillance footage in this world.

Azhen: ...Okay, then!

Was Chu Lingwei really looking for her own parrot, or was she looking for the one in her spatial dimension? There must be something going on here.

Azhen ignored Chu Lingwei and headed into the orphanage with her things.

Chu Lingwei asked, "Are you here to visit the children at the orphanage?"

Azhen responded softly, showing no intention of continuing the conversation.

Clearly, Chu Lingwei only intended to say hello and didn't plan to talk much. After entering the orphanage, she actually started searching seriously, showing that she valued the parrot very much.

Azhen glanced at the parrot in the space. It had already groomed its feathers and had now walked to the side of the spiritual spring water, probably realizing that the spiritual spring water was extraordinary.

But the parrot only glanced at it twice and didn't move.

"You can drink some; it will help heal your wounds," Azhen reminded her. "Since you know about the portable spaces in novels, you should also know that this is magical spring water, right?"

"I'm so sorry, but I really need it right now. Thank you, kind human. I promise I'll give you lots of gems. Really, I have some. If you need anything else... I can try my best to find it for you." The parrot quickly changed the subject, almost saying something it shouldn't have. After thanking the parrot somewhat awkwardly, it drank a few sips of the spiritual spring water and sat down to recover, its posture comfortable, clearly indicating that its body was recovering.

Seeing that the other person was recovering, Azhen had no intention of talking to them any further.

A short while later, Azhen met the headmistress, handed over her the things, and chatted for a few more minutes. The headmistress was very happy to hear that Azhen was doing well, and her face was full of smiles.

During this time, Chu Lingwei also asked the dean if she had seen a parrot, and the answer was of course no.

She said she wanted to look around the orphanage and generously donated a sum of money to it. The director was naturally delighted and took her around. As for Azhen, who grew up in the orphanage, she also went around with them.

After searching the entire orphanage, Chu Lingwei still couldn't find any trace of the parrot, and she was clearly disappointed. She didn't leave immediately, making an excuse that she wanted to stay a little longer, just in case she found it again.

The current Chu Lingwei is a kind-hearted person in the eyes of the dean, so of course she is treated well. Azhen is not disappointed and is very friendly.

She always felt that Chu Lingwei's reluctance to leave wasn't just because she hadn't found the parrot. When she said goodbye to the headmistress, Chu Lingwei also said she was leaving, and asked the headmistress to keep an eye out for the parrot and call her if she found it. They even exchanged contact information.

"Miss Fu, if you see a beautiful parrot, could you please take a picture and let me know?" Chu Lingwei said with a friendly expression, seemingly a genuinely concerned owner of a parrot.

Azhen readily agreed, "Okay."

The two then exchanged contact information.

"By the way, what does your parrot look like? That would make it easier to confirm," A-Zhuang asked.

Chu Lingwei said, "I just bought it too, so I don't have any photos yet, but I do know what kind it is. It's a monk parrot."

Azhen lowered her eyes slightly; the one in the space was the monk parrot.

Since the parrot doesn't recognize Chu Lingwei, why does she insist on finding this parrot?

"Okay, I'll keep an eye out for you," A-Zhen said with a smile. Just as she was about to get into the car, Chu Lingwei called her back again, and the other woman looked at her expectantly.

“Miss Fu, I wonder if you could give me a ride? I got out of the car and walked earlier to look for the parrot, since it’s inconvenient to look for it while driving. I didn’t expect to walk so far, and now I realize my legs are a bit sore.”

Few people could refuse such a offer, after all, Chu Lingwei clearly has an extraordinary net worth, and everyone would like to make a friend with her.

If that parrot hadn't appeared, Azhen would definitely have rejected the other party.

Now that she had agreed to the other party's request, Chu Lingwei had only one purpose: to see if she had secretly kept the parrot.

It seems this parrot is more important than imagined. Chu Lingwei not only needs to find this parrot, but she also needs to prevent it from getting her hands on it.

Azhen got into the car, and Chu Lingwei followed suit.

A-Zhen noticed the other person's actions and quickly glanced at the back seat after getting into the car.

Her back seat was spotless, with absolutely nothing on it. Chu Lingwei looked a little disappointed, while Azhen sensed that the other woman seemed relieved.

Chu Lingwei's car was indeed parked on another street, just a few minutes' drive away.

Upon arriving at their destination, Chu Lingwei thanked Azhen and drove away.

[Parrot, what are your thoughts? This Miss Chu seems to be here for you; do you really not know her?]

The parrot lying on the soft grass even had its legs crossed. It looked like a parrot, but its movements were not quite like one.

"I really don't know him."

"I thought she came up here to kill you," A-Zhen chuckled.

The parrot said, "No one chased me. It was those fierce wild cats that chased me. I was almost swallowed by them."

Ah-Zhuang suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Wild cats do have a habit of catching birds, let alone a species like a parrot. If it weren't for good luck, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape."

"But she definitely came for you." Azhen brought up the initial topic. (End of Chapter)
