Chapter 273 Miracle Medicine
Staff began distributing signs.

Ye Jie took the pink tag and immediately put a numbered label on it; Jia Yao held the blue tag in his hand and examined it over and over, as if looking for some hidden button;
Su Zhining snatched it away immediately; it was from a brand with gold glitter, very high-profile.

Yao Yingzhe took the green sign and casually put it in his pocket.

Xu Ying had already informed the bumblebees in the workshop that they could only dance in place and could not take the guests directly to the flowers with nectar.

Xu Ying looked around at the four guests.

"Alright, everyone get ready—" She took out a delicate bee whistle from her waist, "Three, two, one!"

With a clear whistle sound, more than twenty furry bumblebees flew to the center of the greenhouse, and the buzzing sound of their wings immediately filled the entire greenhouse.

These round little creatures hovered in the air, dancing the figure-eight.

"They're so cute!" Ye Jie couldn't help but exclaim softly, her eyes following a particularly chubby bumblebee. "Look at that one, it looks like a little ball of fluff!"

She had already drawn a precise coordinate system in her notebook. Her sharp gaze followed the body direction of each bumblebee, and her lips moved slightly as she recorded her observations.

"The third pot of purple tulips is located at a 45-degree angle to the northeast."

She suddenly whispered, her eyes lighting up, "That bee swayed its tail three times; it's definitely a nectar source flower!"

She crept closer to the pot of tulips like a secret agent on a covert mission.

A large bumblebee, attracted by the scent of nectar, couldn't resist the urge to "work" and flew with Ye Jie to the tulips, circling around the stamens. Ye Jie was secretly delighted, held her breath, and carefully placed the pink sign on the edge of the flowerpot.

On the other side, Jia Yao was squatting on the south side of the flower array, the light from his phone screen reflecting on his confused face. He had downloaded a so-called "bee language translation app," but at this moment, the app was displaying a bunch of meaningless gibberish.

"What a piece of junk software," he muttered under his breath, his fingers swiping rapidly across the screen. "Wasn't it supposed to translate the language of bee dances?"

A bumblebee flew over his head, drawing a clear figure eight in the air. Jia Yao immediately raised his phone to record it, but when he played it back, the slow-motion footage only showed a blurry brown shadow.

"I can't see anything at all!" He scratched his head in frustration and decided to change his strategy. He tried to observe the bee dance with his naked eye, just like Ye Jie had done, but he was completely confused because he hadn't been paying attention to Xu Ying's words.

"What does flying to the left mean again? And what does spinning in circles mean?"

Su Zhining walked gracefully towards the white flower bushes to the west.

She confidently observed two bumblebees dancing a figure-eight, trying to follow their lead.

"Ah, it must be that pot of white roses!" She strode confidently toward her target. However, just as she was about to place the sign, something unexpected happened—

The two bumblebees suddenly changed direction and flew straight towards her!

"Ah!" Su Zhining exclaimed, waving the sign frantically, "Don't come any closer! You've got the wrong flower!"

Xu Ying, grinning mischievously from a short distance away, added, "Just a heads-up, bumblebees are particularly sensitive to red. Guests wearing red should be careful not to be mistaken for flowers."

Su Zhining's expression changed instantly. She looked down at her carefully chosen red cashmere shawl—the vibrant red stood out starkly against the backdrop of flowers in the room.

As if to confirm Xu Ying's words, a round bumblebee hovered above her head, its black bean-like compound eyes staring intently at her shawl, its furry front paws rubbing excitedly, as if to say, "This big red flower must have lots of honey."

Su Zhining gasped, and with lightning speed, ripped off her shawl and slapped it onto Jia Yao: "Here you go!"

Jia Yao, completely bewildered, clutched the luxury cashmere scarf that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere: "Huh?" Sure enough, the persistent little chubby bee shifted its target, landing with a "buzz" on Jia Yao's shoulder. Even more surprisingly, it began to gently tap Jia Yao's earring with its antennae—which happened to have a ruby ​​set in it.

"Help, help me!" Jia Yao froze, even his breathing became shallow. "Is it going to sting me?"

Xu Ying suppressed a laugh and explained, "Don't worry, bumblebees are gentle. It's just wondering why this 'flower' isn't producing nectar."

Laughter erupted from the audience, and the camera captured Su Zhining's sly expression as she took the opportunity to slip away.

In stark contrast to the panic of the other three guests, Yao Yingzhe remained calm and composed. This experienced senior did not rush to put up signs everywhere, but instead took a magnifying glass and carefully examined each pot one by one.

“Look here,” he said to the cameraman, pointing to a petal of a gerbera daisy. “These tiny U-shaped bite marks are unique to bumblebees when they collect nectar. Only flowers that have actually had their nectar collected will have these marks.”

Although Teacher Yao loves to preach, her knowledge base is undeniably impressive!

[In the second episode, Teacher Yao was noticeably more normal. It seems that Station Chief Xu's rectification efforts were effective, completely eradicating Teacher Yao's problems.]

The production team switched to a magnifying glass perspective.

The clear bite marks on the petals fit perfectly with the bumblebee's mouthparts, and there are tiny pollen grains around them.

Yao Yingzhe smiled and carefully inserted the green sign into the flowerpot, then continued his scientific investigation.

As time went on, the battle intensified: Ye Jie had accurately marked 7 flower pots, but a mischievous bumblebee became interested in her hair clip and snatched it away when she wasn't looking.

Ye Jie chased the bee for most of the stage, and finally exchanged a piece of candy for the hair clip.

Jia Yao finally gave up on technological means and began to learn how to take notes like Ye Jie. But his notes were crooked and illegible, and he could not even understand them himself, so he could only guess by chance.

Yao Yingzhe, relying on scientific methods, caught up with Ye Jie in terms of the number of markers.

He even took the time to explain the ecological habits of bumblebees to the other guests: "I used to raise bees for a while, so I'm very familiar with bees. Only female bumblebees have stingers; male bumblebees don't and can't sting people."

"Bumblebees' stingers have no barbs and don't fall off after they sting, so they can keep stinging you repeatedly!"

Su Zhining shuddered upon hearing this and didn't dare to speak. She observed the bumblebees up close and haphazardly stuck the nectar identification tags in her hand into several flowerpots to try and fool them.

Just as the competition was about to end, an unexpected intruder made the scene even more chaotic—a Tibetan fox suddenly appeared out of nowhere, leaped onto the stage, and snatched the blue sign that Jia Yao had placed on the ground.

"My sign!" Jia Yao exclaimed, but what was even more surprising was that several bumblebees seemed to have turned this into a new game and started chasing the Tibetan fox all over the field.

The Tibetan fox nimbly darted among the flowerpots, while bumblebees relentlessly pursued it.

The Tibetan fox, who had originally come to cause trouble, looked miserable: [Don't chase me anymore, I have no interest in you!]
[Please, stop bothering me!!! I don't be friends with bugs, and we can't communicate!]
At that moment, the door of the wooden house was pushed open.

Everyone was surprised when they saw that it was Lu Jinyu who came in.

"Holy crap, Lu Jinyu, how did you get so fast?!"

"What kind of miracle drug did Station Master Xu give you?"
