Xiao Song, Little Sen, and Duanmu stood at the warehouse door, holding wooden sticks, facing off with the street rat.
The street rat was clutching a few fresh ears of corn, baring its teeth at them.
"When did you guys get here?"
Chen Ying's voice saved the three of them.
Xiao Song was the first to react, running behind Chen Ying, gasping for breath.
"Brother Ying, Duanmu and I came into the mountains to check on the infrared cameras along the animal trail on the southwest side. Xiao Song just picked up some new medical devices from the foot of the mountain and brought some over for you. Also, as soon as you left, some uncles from Xiaozhai brought over freshly harvested corn and potatoes, so Duanmu and I thought we'd bring them along for you."
No wonder. He had just come back to the rescue station, wondering why Xiao Song and the others were following him. He thought something must have happened.
