"What happened?" Lu Jingyi came to the aquarium at noon, glanced at several unfamiliar faces, and his eyes darkened slightly.
"It's okay. The sea lion sent from the zoo needs surgery. Their person in charge is contacting the doctor." Yu You handed him the bowl and chopsticks with a calm expression, and the previous depression had subsided.
Lu Jingyi frowned: "Isn't Dr. Zhong here?"
Doctor Zhong on the side said: "Oh, they think the sea lion's condition worsened because of us, so they don't trust our medical level."
"Has the sea lion's condition worsened?" Lu Jingyi habitually helped Yuyou prepare dishes, guessing in his mind.
"Well, there is a foreign body in the stomach and a chronic perforation." Yu You picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, but his fingers were a little stiff and he failed to pick them up several times.
Lu Jingyi's eyes narrowed, he took her hand, squeezed it gently a few times, and asked, "What's wrong with the hand?"
"It's probably because the blood is not flowing. It will be fine in two days." Yu You's fingers were soaked in fuel for more than an hour. The oil stained the surface of the skin, blocking the absorption of breath.
The sea tribe was originally unable to dehydrate for a long time. The reason why she can live freely on land is mainly because her skin can decompose the moisture in the air. If it cannot maintain moisture, the blood will stagnate.
Yuyou usually doesn't even use cosmetics, and only wears a little lipstick. The skin of marine creatures cannot come into contact with cosmetics casually, otherwise it will easily cause skin ulcers.
Lu Jingyi felt the coolness coming from Yu You's skin, and a surge of anger arose in his heart. He asked in a suppressed voice, "How did you do it?"
If it's a cold, he won't find it strange, but the blood in his fingers doesn't flow and he can't even hold chopsticks
Yu You looked at him silently.
It is really annoying and heart-wrenching for someone to remain silent even if they don't want to lie.
Lu Jingyi asked the restaurant employee for a spoon, and Yu You was about to take it when she saw him scooping up a spoonful of soup and handing it to her mouth, obviously intending to feed her.
Yu You: "..." In public, she refused.
"If you don't want to eat, tell me the truth." Lu Jingyi raised his hands and remained motionless.
Yu You opened his mouth and took a decisive sip of the soup.
Lu Jingyi: Then keep feeding!
He fed him spoonful by spoonful, without changing his expression in front of everyone. The more he fed, the more smoothly he fed, and he also got some special pleasure.
Dr. Zhong and others looked at them blankly. After taking a mouthful of dog food, the food was tasteless.
Yuyou's appetite is not big, so he is full with just one bowl of rice. Lu Jingyi still had some unfinished thoughts, but he was thinking about her fingers.
After lunch, Lu Jingyi asked Dr. Zhong to look at Yu You's fingers, but he didn't see anything abnormal.
Lu Jingyi was worried and massaged her fingers carefully, thinking that if she still didn't feel better after two days, he would take her to the hospital for a check-up.
Two days later in the afternoon, the doctor invited by the zoo arrived, and Director Ouyang immediately arranged the operation.
The sea lion had just woken up, lying on the operating table and staring at the people around him. Finally, his eyes fell on Yu You, and he called her pitifully a few times.
But Yu You, Dr. Zhong and others were blocked from the operating room. Only Zhang Chengren and the doctor he invited went in.
Seeing that it was not Yu You, the originally peaceful sea lion immediately became unhappy and jumped up, frightening Zhang Chengren to stagger.
Before he could stand firm, there was a snapping sound, and the sea lion jumped off the operating table and ran straight to Yuyou. Before he could run a few meters, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, his body fell over, and he let out a painful cry. Wail.
"Ooooooooooooo..." The sea lion rolled on the ground with tears streaming down his face.
Yu You stepped forward, but Zhang Chengren stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't come over and cause trouble! Doctor Zhang, think of a solution quickly."
"You control it, and I'll inject it with anesthetic." Dr. Zhang prepared the needle and medicine neatly.
Zhang Chengren called his companion, and the two worked together to suppress the sea lion, but it struggled violently, biting and slapping it, and its fur was greasy, making them confused.
Zhang Chengren took a rope from the side and planned to tie it up, but he failed to control the strength well, and the healed wounds on the sea lion's body split.
It whined and whined, trying to raise its head to look at Yu You, with a cry for help in its eyes.
Zhang Chengren wrapped the rope around the sea lion several times, pressed it hard to the ground, and then called to Dr. Zhang in a panic: "Doctor Zhang, do it quickly."
Dr. Zhang knelt down and looked at the struggling sea lion, and for a moment he couldn't decide what to do.
"Doctor Zhang, why are you dawdling? Hurry up!" Zhang Chengren urged, sweating profusely.
Dr. Zhang calmed down, took the syringe and was about to start.
At this moment, a hand reached out from the side and took away the syringe from Dr. Zhang's hand.
"Miss Yuyou, what are you doing?" Zhang Chengren asked dissatisfied.
Yu You ignored Zhang Chengren and squatted next to the sea lion, holding a syringe in one hand and stroking its head with the other.
The sea lion raised his head and rubbed against her palm. The panic in his eyes gradually dissipated, and the intensity of his struggle also slowed down.
Zhang Chengren and others were all stunned, and their hands unconsciously let go.
Yu You knelt on one knee, lowered his head and lowered his eyes, injecting the anesthetic into the sea lion's body with concentration. The fingers are sore and numb, but the strength is very steady.
After a moment, the sea lion slowly closed its eyes, relaxed its body, rested peacefully at Yu You's feet, and fell asleep.
From the time Yuyou arrived to the end of the injection, it only took two minutes, which was an understatement to the point of being outrageous.
Zhang Chengren is one of the sea lion breeders. He has taken care of it for three years, but the result is worse than just raising it for half a month!
After the anesthesia was successfully administered, Dr. Zhang officially began the operation.
Yu You stood aside and watched the operation process. Zhang Chengren was too embarrassed to chase people away this time, so he just shrank away.
The operation lasted for two hours. Yu You also stood for two hours without any impatience on his face. Zhang Chengren and others had already gone to the toilet several times and dozed off several times.
When Dr. Zhang took out the foreign object in the stomach and sutured the wound, Yu You came closer. Seeing that the sea lion was in stable condition, he turned his attention to the foreign object placed in the vessel.
The foreign objects were needle-shaped, four in total, ranging from 3 to 5 centimeters in length, and were covered with traces of corrosion.
"This is..." Dr. Zhang picked up one with tweezers and said hesitantly, "It seems to be a needle-shaped plastic object."
"How come there is such a thing in its stomach?" Zhang Chengren looked at Yu You suspiciously, "There is no such plastic product in the place where sea lions are raised."
Yu You said calmly: "Plastic is a polymer compound and is not suitable for digestion. Judging from the degree of corrosion, it should be more than a month old. No matter how these things were eaten by sea lions, it has nothing to do with our aquarium."
"Are you a forensic doctor?" Zhang Chengren said harshly, "Can you confirm it just by looking at it?"
Yu You glanced at him: "If you don't believe it, you can test it yourself with an instrument."
After saying this, Yu You crossed Zhang Chengren and took the wound medicine from the medicine cabinet. While carefully helping the sea lion deal with the trauma, he reminded: "This is obviously not a simple accidental ingestion. I suggest you go back and check it carefully to avoid any accidents." Other sea lions also suffer from the same illness."
"You mean someone in our zoo deliberately fed these things to the sea lions?" Zhang Chengren exaggerated, "Don't think that you can insult us casually because you have some skills."
"Insult?" Yuyou turned his head quickly and looked at him with sharp eyes, "Is this an insult? Please be responsible for these animals and try to avoid any danger that may affect their health. If you think I said These are just insults to you, so what do you think of the lives and health of these animals?”
Zhang Chengren opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word under the other party's gaze. When a gentle person gets angry, there is an indescribable momentum.
"Okay, Brother Ren, let's go." Zhang Chengren's companion held his hand.
Zhang Chengren glared at Yu You reluctantly, turned around and walked out.
I heard Yu You's voice coming from behind again: "After the treatment is completed, I will send you a bill for the treatment fee and feeding fee. In the future, all fees for animals sent to your zoo must be paid in full and compensated. Don’t forget the reputational damage fee and public apology.”
Zhang Chengren made a wrong step and almost fell down.
After treating the sea lion's wound and combing it with the power of the ocean, Yu You walked out of the operating room.
Lu Jingyi came over, took her hand, and squeezed it gently: "Does it hurt?"
Yu You smiled and said, "It's okay."
"Next time something like this happens again, just tell them to go away. There is no need to be angry with them." Lu Jingyi had been holding back and kept silent just now, but he kept this account in his mind.
"I don't want to be offended, but I don't want others to doubt the integrity of our charity work." It is very difficult to build trust among humans, but it is very easy to destroy the trust of others.
Lu Jingyi couldn't bear to let her be wronged, but he also respected her career and could only do his best to support her and protect her.
Yu You posted the sea lion's treatment process online as usual, objectively describing its condition.
After Zhang Chengren returned, he belittled the people at the aquarium and put most of the blame on them. The director was very angry at first, but he was concerned about the sea lions' dietary health. He asked someone to perform a CT examination on all the sea lions, and it was found that all of them had foreign bodies in their stomachs.
The director was so furious that he exposed Zhang Chengren's lies on the spot and fired him.
To be cautious, the director conducted a comprehensive inspection on other animals. What was shocking was that one-third of the animals had the same problem.
Apparently, someone intentionally fed foreign objects to the animals. If it is not discovered in time, many animals will surely suffer.
Based on this clue, they quickly found the murderer, a breeder who had worked for less than a year. His younger brother used to work at the zoo but was fired because he offended the director. Then he was accidentally hit and killed by a car while looking for a new job. The elder brother believed that his younger brother's death was all the fault of the zoo director, so he deliberately retaliated by mixing foreign matter in the animal food, intending to kill several animals and bring the zoo into disrepute.
After the matter was settled, the director fulfilled his promise for Zhang Chengren, paid all the sea lion's expenses and compensation, and publicly apologized to the aquarium.
The popularity of the domestication base has greatly increased, and the news that the virtual fantasy aquarium is about to be built has spread like wildfire.
This is something to talk about later, let’s not mention it for now.
The sea lion recovered well after the surgery, and after it was able to go to the ground, it followed the fish around like a puppy every day.
If you don't walk it for a day, it won't eat honestly. It's spoiled. It's because it suffered a big sin before and it lacks a sense of security. It can only run around with confidence if it's with the boss.
