Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

At this moment, the researcher who had been manipulating the ball spoke up again: "Director, should we inform Miss Tang?"

"Look how agitated he is now, standing there like a madman. Apart from Miss Tang, I doubt anyone would dare to approach that area."

"And with such a large wild boar carcass lying here, my secure job probably won't be leaving for the next few days."

"If the forest rangers go out to work, they might get attacked by him."

Ji Yongjun looked down at the screen. Wang Yuyu was still throwing a tantrum at a big tree, its tail whipping like a whip.

He pondered for a few seconds, then nodded: "Okay, I'll call Xiao Tang myself and ask if she has time to come over."

Then he turned to the others and instructed, "Quickly contact the nearby forest rangers and tell them to rush over there!"

"There are definitely other traps lurking around. We must check them as soon as possible. We absolutely cannot let our secure jobs fall into that trap!"

"Yes, Director!" the crowd responded loudly.

They all knew that Wang Yuyu's condition was extremely unstable and they had to go there as soon as possible to deal with it, otherwise something unexpected might really happen.

This isn't the only trap!

Ji Yongjun strode back to his office, closed the door behind him, immediately took out his phone, found Tang Li's contact information, and made a video call.

He knew that Tang Li was still angry about "using her as a shield" before, and he was prepared to be given the cold shoulder.

The video call connected quickly, and Tang Li's face appeared on the screen.

She was busy at the tiger enclosure, a light sheen of sweat on her forehead. When she saw the caller ID was Ji Yongjun, her expression instantly turned cold. Without a trace of emotion, she asked in an icy tone, "What?"

Ji Yongjun immediately forced a fawning smile and softened his tone, as if coaxing a younger relative: "Little Tang, my dear daughter, are you busy right now?"

Tang Li knew from his "unsolicited kindness" that nothing good was going on, and her anger flared up again.

She didn't even bother to say anything more to Ji Yongjun, and abruptly ended the video call with a "click" in front of the screen.

Looking at the vanished call screen, Ji Yongjun's smile froze. He scratched his head awkwardly and smiled helplessly: "That girl, she really has a temper."

Despite his complaints, he couldn't neglect his business. He took a deep breath and dialed Tang Li's video call again.

This time the call connected even faster. As soon as Tang Li's face appeared, her brows furrowed tightly, her tone even more impatient and clearly angry: "Spit it out! I'm busy feeding the tigers, I don't have time to waste with you!"

Seeing Tang Li's abrupt attitude, Ji Yongjun dared not continue his joking manner. He immediately stopped smiling and got straight to the point with a serious expression:

"Xiao Tang, stop being temperamental. I have something important to tell you."

"We discovered high-voltage electric fences left by poachers along the patrol route used by the 'iron rice bowl' (a government-mandated security force)!"

The moment Tang Li uttered the words "iron rice bowl," her previously impatient face instantly tightened, and her anger vanished without a trace.

She leaned forward abruptly, her face almost touching the phone screen, her voice urgent and worried: "Is he alright? Did he touch the electric fence? Is he hurt?"

"Don't worry, my job is secure."

Ji Yongjun quickly shook his head, his tone softening. "The electric fence electrocuted a group of wild boars. It was Tiefan who first noticed the anomaly and used a branch to signal to us before we found it. He didn't touch it himself and wasn't injured at all."

Hearing that her "iron rice bowl" was safe, Tang Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and relaxed her tense shoulders. Her tone softened considerably: "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright..."

She paused, looked at Ji Yongjun on the screen, and asked earnestly, "Uncle Ji, what exactly do you want from me?"

Seeing that Tang Li was willing to listen to him properly, Ji Yongjun breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again: "It's like this, we originally planned to send forest rangers over to dismantle the electric fence and check for other traps, but for some reason, Tie Fanwan went crazy and vented his emotions at the place where the electric fence was found, he was extremely agitated."

"We're worried that the ranger going over there might provoke him and cause him to attack, so we'd like to ask you to come over and keep an eye on him."

Tang Li felt emotional upon hearing the phrase "iron rice bowl," and her heart clenched again.

She hesitated for two seconds, but her worry about her job security quickly outweighed her dissatisfaction with Ji Yongjun. In the end, she nodded and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll go take a look."

"That's great! Thank you, Xiao Tang!" Ji Yongjun immediately beamed with joy, his heart finally at ease.

But before his smile could fully bloom, Tang Li's face turned cold again, her tone flat and somewhat distant: "Don't be too happy yet. I'm not helping you; I'm just doing this for money."

"Remember to transfer this payment to my card, and you haven't settled the money you gave me for the help I did last time."

After saying that, without waiting for Ji Yongjun's response, Tang Li once again decisively hung up the video call.

Looking at the blacked-out phone screen, Ji Yongjun shook his head helplessly, but couldn't help but smile and chuckled softly, "This girl still holds a grudge..."

In the mountains on the other side, Wang Yu finally vented his anger.

He slumped onto the snow, his chest still rising and falling slightly. He turned to look at the family of wild boars lying neatly in the snow, his amber eyes welling up with tears.

"What should we do? What are we going to do...?"

He frantically scratched at the snow with his paws, pacing anxiously. "I didn't have much food in my territory to begin with, and now the wild boar herd has been wiped out. What am I going to eat?"

"This winter is still long; I can't really be forced to eat grass, can I?"

As he spun around, he suddenly stopped, staring intently at the positioning ball not far away. His eyes lit up instantly, and an idea came to him!

"Damn it, it's all these people's fault! If they hadn't failed to keep a close watch on the reserve and let the poachers sneak in, would I have lost so much food? They have to compensate me!"

"If you don't pay me, I'm not leaving! Anyway, without food, I'm not even sure if I'll survive the winter. We might as well just tough it out!"

Wang Yuyu stuck out her neck, looking completely self-righteous.

He had no idea that if he hadn't previously covered up all the infrared cameras in his territory with tree branches because he thought they were in the way, the poachers wouldn't have been able to find their way here so easily and set up a trap.

Perhaps he vaguely thought of it, but instinctively suppressed the thought.

How many people are truly willing to admit they're wrong?

Wang Yuyu simply lay down on the snow, resting her head on her front paws, and made up her mind: "If the reserve dares not compensate me, I'll just go into the village and get the compensation myself! I can't let myself starve to death in these mountains!"
