The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Damn Rabbits

Ji You turned her head toward Lin Lele and found that everything was harmonious between the people and the rabbits over there, leaving Ji You utterly speechless and choked up.

Then, she tried to approach these little rabbits, but they got even more skittish, some shrinking into a corner, trembling violently, looking very scared.

Robot: ”Warning! Warning! Warning! Inappropriate approach.”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You took a deep breath and asked, ”Can you give me a hint?”

Heaven knows—

She was just here to clean, not to provide psychological counseling to the little rabbits.

Robot: ”Please explore on your own. Additionally, warning, some of the little rabbits are severely frightened, which will affect their grazing amount, please think of a remedy as soon as possible...”

Ji You raised her hand and rubbed her forehead hard: ”How am I supposed to remedy this? Can I eat grass on their behalf?”

Robot: ”...”

”Pfft—”

Suddenly, a discordant laughter rang out nearby. Ji You looked up and saw Lin Lele quickly shut her mouth, pretending as if nothing happened.

Ji You complained: ”I should have chosen those white rabbits.”

Lin Lele glanced at Ji You, arrogantly raised her head, then turned her back and started shoveling rabbit droppings...

Ji You’s mouth twisted, mocking: ”Even though your posture lifting your head is perfect, don’t forget how awkward you look when you bend down to shovel rabbit droppings.”

Lin Lele: ”...”

Lin Lele snorted coldly: ”None of your business.”

Ji You chuckled and said, ”Sister, how about we swap?”

Lin Lele quickly turned away.

Ji You forced a smile, faced her own tough-to-handle little rabbits again, slowly bent over and crouched down, coaxing the little rabbits in the corner: ”Little rabbits, be good, don’t be scared, I’m just here to make soy sauce.”

The little rabbits were still quivering.

Ji You grinned: ”Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a big bad wolf...”

The little rabbits shook even harder.

Robot: ”Warning! Warning! Warning! Please find an effective solution immediately!”

Ji You yanked her hair in frustration: ”What do you want me to do, tell me. I just want to clean up...”

At this moment—

A group of people walked in through the door, just in time to see Ji You squatting in the corner, trying to reason with a group of trembling little rabbits. The group paused slightly, and the leader looked at Mu Jianling, smiling said: ”Jianling, your students here are quite patient with these little rabbits.”

Mu Jianling tugged at his mouth, saying: ”She’s just here to clean the rabbit droppings.”

Visitor: ”Oh? What did this kid do wrong?”

Ji You: ”...”

Upon hearing this voice, Ji You felt it was very familiar, but couldn’t quite place where she had heard it. Unable to remember, she stopped trying to reason with the troublesome little rabbits, turned her head, and was stunned: ”Zhang... Aunt Zhang?”

This person was Aunt Zhang from Taoyuan Space Station, responsible for the breeding operations. Her specific name was unknown to Ji You and others; they just knew her as ’Aunt Zhang’. Moreover, Aunt Zhang was a former instructor at Lanyue Star Agricultural College, who later transferred to Taoyuan Space Station.

Seeing Ji You’s face, Aunt Zhang burst into laughter, saying, ”So it’s you, kid.”

Ji You grinned and quickly jumped out of the rabbit shed, happily saying: ”Aunt Zhang, you still remember me!”

Aunt Zhang raised her hand, patted Ji You’s head, and laughed: ”Of course, I remember. After all, among the students I’ve seen over the years, you’re the only one as short as this.”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You’s smile at the corner of her mouth froze instantly.

Mu Jianling frowned and said, ”Do your work, what are you standing around here for?”

Ji You’s face wrinkled in an instant, bitterly saying, ”Teacher... it’s not that I don’t want to work, it’s that these rabbits aren’t cooperating. As soon as I get close, they get scared, stop eating grass, stop drinking water, stop defecating, and such... What can I do?”

”Pfft—”

Ji You followed the sound of laughter and her mouth twitched slightly.

It was Lin Lele again.

This girl, aside from taking pleasure in others’ misfortune, can’t she do something productive?

Seizing the opportunity, Ji You complained to Teacher Mu Jianling. Nearby, Aunt Zhang, after listening, said nothing but approached the little rabbits and softly said, ”We’re doing cleaning, make way...”

Then—

The little rabbits obediently moved back a few steps.

Moreover, for some reason, they weren’t shivering anymore; they lowered their heads and started nibbling the grass.

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You glowered and said, ”Could it be that these little rabbits also judge people by their appearance?”

Aunt Zhang chuckled softly and kindly said, ”It’s probably your spiritual power that scares them. Remember to restrain it a bit and try as much as possible not to make them feel threatened.”

Ji You, surprised, asked: ”They can feel the spiritual power?”

Aunt Zhang smiled and said, ”Animals have the sharpest senses. Your spiritual power has been constantly released; you just don’t realize it. If your Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate is high enough, you should be able to sense the Spiritual Network around you being particularly active, which is why the little rabbits are afraid of you.”

After listening, Ji You was momentarily speechless because—

In fact, this is what was happening inside her Spiritual World:

Boss: ”Ahhh!!! Spicy rabbit!”

Second: ”Ahhh!!! Braised rabbit!”

Third: ”Ahhh!!! Stir-fried rabbit!”

Fourth: ”Plain stew, hotpot, dry fry, Yellow braised... mine, mine, all mine.”

Old Five: ”Master, when do we eat?”

Sixth: ”Master, can’t wait any longer, want to eat! Want to eat!”

Ever since she stepped into this rabbit shed, Ji You’s Six Gluttonous Threads had gone crazy with joy, each one throwing tantrums in the Spiritual World, clamoring to eat rabbits, all kinds of rabbit dishes... causing Ji You to be insanely troubled...

Now, Aunt Zhang tells Ji You that the reason she can’t deal with these rabbits is because of her silly Silks?

Ji You’s face darkened instantly, and she scolded in the Spiritual World, ”All of you, calm down.”

The Six Spiritual Threads, seeing their Master angry, albeit reluctantly, restrained themselves a bit, but—

Their gaze at the rabbits still made the rabbits’ scalp tingle, shivering in fright...

The activity of the Spiritual Silks around Ji You noticeably decreased in an instant. Aunt Zhang, sensitive to this change, her eyes brightened and she said with a smile, ”Student Ji You, good comprehension. However, restraining the release of spiritual power shouldn’t be rushed; it takes practice and guidance by a good teacher. Why not transfer to our Agricultural College, and I will teach you personally?”

Mu Jianling’s eyelid twitched, coldly saying, ”Zhang Si, do you really think I do not exist?”

Aunt Zhang showed a look of regret and said, ”Jianling, it’s just a joke. Why so serious?”

Mu Jianling: ”Hmph!”

Aunt Zhang, not minding his attitude at all, suddenly raised a smile and turned to a tall, straight figure behind her, saying, ”Fu Feng, what do you think of this place?”
