The Civil Servant's Job is to Raise The Furries!-Chapter 53: The Mouse-Catching Squad Mobilizes

Chapter 53: Chapter 53: The Mouse-Catching Squad Mobilizes

Little Sand Cat finished speaking and wrapped its two paws around the big leg of its master, the Black Jungle Cat.

It struggled to lift one of Black Jungle Cat’s slender forelimbs: [Rescuer, my master says he wants to sign up too~]

Black Jungle Cat, held onto by Little Sand Cat, helplessly raised its paw: [Count me in.]

Little Sand Cat joyously turned in circles: [Yay, with my master and me together, we’re unbeatable!]

Black Jungle Cat’s light-golden eyes flickered. After pondering for a moment, it said: [Little Xu Station Chief, how about calling more animals that eat mice? With their help, we’ll have more assurance.]

"It would be great to have more reinforcements, of course."

Xu Ying frowned and sighed, "I’ve only been at the rescue station for a short time, so I’m not familiar with the other little animals."

[It’s okay, I’m here.]

[I’ll help you.]

Black Jungle Cat licked its paw: [After all, we’re night owls—awake at night, asleep by day.]

Black Jungle Cat’s simple "I’ll help you" instantly reassured Xu Ying. Indeed, the Black Cat Chief was reliable and comforting.

She declared the Black Jungle Cat to be the top idol in the animal kingdom in her heart! No exceptions!

Cool-looking, skillful, calm, and reliable, Xu Ying became the Black Cat Chief’s number one fan right on the spot.

"Then let’s just issue a mouse-catching recruitment order!"

Xu Ying’s eyes suddenly brightened with light: "To all the little animals willing to join me in Dongqing Village to eliminate the vicious mice, we’ll provide food and lodging, and national recognition. In the future, when you need help with childcare, medical care, and the like, Little Xu is always a call away!"

Black Jungle Cat swayed its tail: [Then you’ll definitely become a busy bee in the future.]

Xu Ying couldn’t wish for more—being busy is great!

This way, her rewards and points could soar, and she could establish contacts with more little animals~

[Big sis, big sis, we want to be soldiers too!]

The little ear foxes eagerly raised their tiny paws.

Looking at the small ear foxes on the ground, only slightly larger than her palm, Xu Ying found it endearing: "Little ones, you’re still young. How about when you’re a bit older, okay?"

Xu Ying patted each fox cub’s head for comfort: "For now, watch the live broadcast of how these big brothers and sisters take action, and you’ll gain experience for next time."

She turned to ask Ling Yu: "Are you free tomorrow to watch the live broadcast of me leading the animal mouse-catching squad to curb the mouse infestation?"

"Live broadcast? Yes, I’m free!"

Ling Yu had never watched a live broadcast of animals fighting mice and felt it might be similar to Paw Patrol helping out in cartoons. The excitement started building up in his heart: "Are you going to broadcast the whole thing this time? I’m really curious about how the little animals perform!"

"Yes, I’ll broadcast everything."

"While doing the animal broadcasts and daily animal accounts these days, most of the netizens are little angels who come to Xu Ying’s page to virtually adore the fluffies. But quite a few comment that rescuing animals is just something to do when you’re full and have nothing else to do, overrun by a saint’s heart."

With hope and determination in her eyes, Xu Ying said, "I want to show through this mouse extermination action that rescuing animals isn’t about being a saint, having nothing better to do, or having money with nowhere to spend it."

"Little animals are our friends, an important part of the Earth’s ecological family."

"They are mutually beneficial partners to humanity, and everyone should respect and protect them and their habitats."

The tiger martens listened to Xu Ying’s words, slowly lowering their tails; their distrust and vigilance dissolved in this moment.

Earlier complaints and accusations when they first met, this human actually listened and quickly gave a positive response. It was their first time encountering such a sincere and respectful human.

Ling Yu affirmed his full support after hearing Xu Ying: "You can go ahead boldly, the rescue station still has me, and I’ll take good care of the fox cubs."

Xu Ying smiled with her eyes curving: "Then I’ll trouble you!"

"No trouble at all." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Ling Yu spoke sincerely: "You found me such an amazing coach, I haven’t even had the chance to thank you yet."

After registering and distributing numbers to the animals signing up for the operation, Xu Ying washed up and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, the night owls began their desert recruitment mission.

The next morning, Xu Ying woke up well-rested, noticing that the area around the rescue station was unusually quiet.

This kind of quietness felt somewhat unusual to her.

The ear fox cubs were still snuggled beside her sleeping bag, fast asleep. Xu Ying carefully got out of bed and dressed quietly.

She hesitantly opened the door of the rescue station.

As soon as she opened the door, hundreds of pairs of small animal eyes turned to look at her in unison.

About thirty large grown sou mao crouched on the ground, their golden fur shining brightly in the morning light;

A variety of desert foxes sat on the ground, their lovely upturned fox eyes filled with cunning and intelligence;

Desert king snakes and rattlesnakes that prey on mice coiled at the entrance of the rescue station...

In the sky, hundreds of birds of prey circled, flocks of falcons soaring like aerial reconnaissance planes...

Flying above, crawling below... the entire rescue station was surrounded by animals as Xu Ying couldn’t believe her eyes, covering her mouth in amazement.

Hundreds of animal gazes focused on Xu Ying, and in that instant, Xu Ying felt what real intimidation was.

Wow, these two cats are incredible handlers!

This scene really gave Xu Ying the feeling of leading a regiment into battle.

What a grand occasion!

Time was of the essence, so Xu Ying immediately made calls to gather people, summoning Ning Zexi and Ling Yu to help with registrations.

Xu Ying used her points to redeem a Beast Language full language comprehension experience time and began registering the unfamiliar little animals first.

Finally, she moved on to registering the birds, felines, foxes... After a busy half-day, a total of four hundred and fifty animals joined this mouse extermination mission.

Rounding up, she had a battalion of troops under her command!

After tallying the number of animals, Xu Ying called Director Yi to dispatch vehicles for transportation.

The bird hunters had already set off first in accordance with the direction given by Xu Ying.

Traveling from Station 032 to Dongqing Village would take eight hours, arriving late at night.

After confirming everything was in order, Xu Ying and Ning Zexi embarked on the journey of mouse extermination.

*

At eleven p.m., at the main road leading to Dongqing Village.

Director Yin Shen, overseeing the county’s mouse extermination work, and Director Yi, from the desert management regional headquarters, stood together, their faces filled with anxiety.

Yin Shen skeptically asked, "You mean to say, letting a just-graduated young girl fully lead this mouse extermination mission?"

Director Yi nodded, feeling a bit proud: "Yes, only she can do it."

"Really reliable? If anything goes wrong, like an animal attack, my year’s work would be for nothing, and I’d be held responsible."

Yin Shen folded his arms, his face full of distrust: "Plus, Dongqing Village is so large, and with house mice reproducing so quickly—there might be tens of thousands of them. She brings only a few flower dogs and cats, hopefully not to be overrun by mice."

Just then, from the end of the dark road, car lights turned on.

One, two, three... a total of twelve large trucks came, illuminating the road leading to Dongqing Village.
