Chapter 398 Section 394 - The Blonde Elder Sister Feels Confident
Such a tiny thing that's only the size of a fist, it can't even talk,
no matter how Chen Fei asked, chirp, that's it!
What else could he do with it!
Absolutely no idea!
Nicole von Sasha, the blonde elder sister who hadn't left, read the various vile thoughts rolling in Chen Fei's mind, such as snapping the little bird's neck, smashing it into mush in an instant, pressing its head flat against the desk, plucking off its wings, and so on. Terrible thoughts abounded, ceaseless and churning. My God, how could there be such an evil person in the world, the very incarnation of a demon.
Yet the light-element magical beast lay there in her hands without any guard, claws upturned, allowing to be inspected its two leg rings.
As to which one was the Space Series Alchemy Storage Device, not only was Chen Fei completely baffled, but so were the others, staring blankly at each other, unable to distinguish between them.
One silver, the other bronze, a clash of colors paired together, similarly sized—such a perfect match!
Who could possibly imagine that these two were not part of a set?

B-rank Ice Ability User Susanna looked at Chen Fei holding the little bird, asking it questions only to be answered by a "chirp," gaining nothing, and couldn't help feeling disheartened,
"I think we simply can't get anything out of it!"
This was surely a futile effort!
Adrian, holding his coffee, said indifferently, "That's what I think too!"
Xiao Jiu was without a doubt an important member of Team 04.
As for the Space Series Alchemy Storage Device and such, it was simply not important. Just like high-capacity military crystalline blocks, finding one was considered a gain, absolutely not something to cavalierly hand over; there was nothing to discuss.
Why there would be member information for the "Water Bear" organization, even Chen Fei didn't know, and what he said was certified by professionals on the scene, so nobody else knew either. Since it was incomprehensible, better not to think about it—it was unsolvable.
The waters were too deep, and forcibly trying to resolve it would simply be seeking death, meaningless.
There was one other possibility: Pure Light Sparrow Xiao Jiu was a bigshot from the "Water Bear" organization, hence possessing the member list... Pfft, haha, hahaha, was this joke meant to laugh Team 04 to death?
The little bird rolled around merrily in Chen Fei's hands, chirping nonstop.
The Neanderthal Chief, still seriously injured and not yet fully recovered, had eyes on the nose, nose on the heart—a picture of closed eyes and resting spirit.
After Liaison Officer Rossi left, Puppet Master Joshua began playing mobile games on his own, burying his head in his phone.
The Old Tree Boundary Ape smiled, not getting involved at all.
Only Mouri Misono still looked on with great interest as Chen Fei fiddled with the little bird, who eventually spread his hands and chose to give up, just as Adrian and Susanna had predicted. There was only one answer—the little guy could only chirp.
"Chirp!"
After the little bird steadied itself.
Clang, a bottle of red wine smashed onto the table.
"..."
Chen Fei recognized the label, it was one of Boss Hana's collected fine wines.
Good for you, Xiao Jiu, stealing wine, if Boss finds out, that's big trouble.
"Chirp!"
The little bird pecked at the bottle cap and then turned to look at Chen Fei.
Asking it where the Space Series Alchemy Storage Device and the "Water Bear" organization member data came from was met with silence, but now its shrewdness was evident, even knowing to ask Chen Fei to help open the bottle.
"Eh? This wine is pretty good, seems like the Francisco Heirloom 2022 Limited Collection Edition, ssss, at least 80,000 Star Yuan a bottle."
Adrian happened to look over, involuntarily gasping.
Of course, the Pure Light Sparrow Xiao Jiu had no bad intentions, and its thoughts were easy to understand. But its attack was purely instinctive, without any concept of good or evil. It could happily, sincerely, and kindly eliminate the other party without any evil thoughts, not even a hint of malice—it was completely natural and justifiable. This was just like how humans can happily, sincerely, and kindly slaughter pigs, sheep, cattle, chickens, ducks, and geese, skin them and debone them, tossing everything into the pot. Can you say that the butchers or foodies are bad people? Definitely not!
The A-level Psychic Ability User, Nicole von Sasha, attempted to apply human ways of thinking to the Pure Light Sparrow and was doomed to use the wrong approach.
"I think you're going crazy! Humph!"
Adrian patted his clothes, shook off a few drops of coffee, and left the conference room.
There was nothing to talk about with this crazy woman.
"Let's go! This is boring!"
B-level Ice Ability User Susanna, pulling Mouri Misono along, rose to leave, and others did the same.
After Liaison Officer Rossi left, everyone on Team 04 had already been wanting to leave.
"Stay away from my bird from now on, or first I'll fry and then kill, kill and then fry."
Chen Fei bared his teeth in a warning to the golden-haired Miss, and a terrifying wave of malice rushed at her, scaring her as she had just stood up, making her plop down once again, her face a mix of grievance and fear.
In the end, only the golden-haired Miss was left in the conference room, where she couldn't help but cry out in frustration.

"Wake up, wake up, Chen Fei, wake up!"
Chen Fei, who was deep in sleep, was jostled awake.
"What's going on?"
"Chirp!"
In the bird's nest on the bedside table, the Pure Light Sparrow, too, was roused from sleep and looked around with its beady little eyes at the white-haired, cropped-haired man who had intruded into the room.
"Get up; there's trouble!"
Adrian Benjamin, the leader of Team 04 and a First Rank fire mage, forcefully woke Chen Fei.
Since checking into this hotel, they had basically one room per person on the same floor. They didn't bother each other, with the elevator linked to their room cards. As long as the stairwell was guarded, no outsiders could enter the floor.
"Trouble?"
Chen Fei rolled out of bed in a flash, with Xiao Jiu flapping its wings and perching on his shoulder as they both stared at Adrian.
"Chirp?"
Adrian hastily stated, "Liaison Officer Rossi, Apu, and Bassan have been poisoned. The herbs from Lulu'an can't stabilize them. Please let Xiao Jiu help."
He was not only there to inform Team 04 of the emergency but also to seek Xiao Jiu's aid.
No one else could command the Pure Light Sparrow. Anyone who tried might end up on the receiving end of a laser beam, maimed if not killed.
"Alright! I'll let Xiao Jiu give it a try, but I can't guarantee it'll work."
Chen Fei offered no objections. Light Healing Spells worked on the principle of stimulating vitality, so whether they could detoxify was not something he dared guarantee.
By the time Adrian led them to the scene, the local medical team had also arrived promptly.
The problem lay with the hotel's buffet breakfast. After the Old Tree Boundary Ape Lulu'an detected something off with the food, Liaison Officer Rossi, the tall, burly Apu, and the Neanderthal Chief had already fallen victim, while others were lucky to escape thanks to the warning.
Upon their arrival, the medical team commenced the grim procedures of induced vomiting and enemas, trying to get rid of as much of the remaining toxins from the stomach as possible.
Seeing the three unconscious individuals, Chen Fei brought the little bird closer.
"Xiao Jiu, use 'Light of Redemption'!"
The Healing Spells did not conflict with the medical team's treatment methods.
