Chapter 1895: Chapter 895 Aftermath

Green pastures, cattle!

When the wind blew into the base, it had lost the salty smell of sea breeze, bringing only the cool air of the wilderness.

It was completely different from the polluted air in the city. Entering here suddenly from the city, inhaling a breath of air makes one feel as if they are floating.

But Brother Daya definitely didn’t feel this way. He looked at the surrounding herd of cattle, feeling very confused. The cattle were large, and he was right in the middle of them, unable to see anything else around.

His younger brother beside him was even more bewildered, staring in amazement at the cattle and exclaiming, “Brother Daya, these cattle are so well-fed and strong. We used to raise water buffalo at home…”

Are these water buffalo? Can’t you see they are completely different?

Brother Daya felt a wave of sadness, thinking he’s stuck with such a clueless little brother.

The problem was he himself had been influenced by his brother’s stupidity. Was this the time to be concerned whether the cattle were water buffalo or not?

“Hello, are you new here?” In the midst of his many thoughts, Brother Daya suddenly heard someone speaking to him. Turning around cheerfully, he saw a foreigner holding a brush.

This foreigner was clearly a cowboy, speaking while brushing any dirt off the cattle.

Finally seeing someone alive, Brother Daya, full of questions, excitedly asked, “Hi, where are we? How did we end up here? This…”

“Why do you have so many questions?” The seemingly friendly foreigner suddenly snapped angrily.

…

Half an hour later, Brother Daya and his younger brother, faces swollen, were dragged into the laboratory by No.2 Coolie. After looking at the mad scientists’ accomplishments in the lab, they realized one thing: sometimes, horror scenes from movies do indeed happen in real life.

Yan Fei was there drinking tea, waiting for them, and began asking questions.

Brother Daya confessed openly, “We were all following Brother Chang… He’s the one who organized us. Initially, we were just guarding the venue, then we switched to this work. Some genuinely disabled people came to make a living themselves, others were brought in through connections we found, and some were… it seems they were abducted…”

…

Half a day later, the base gained several experimental subjects, along with a group of disabled kids, all quite young.

Originally, these people were supposed to be sent to the police station, but Xu Xiaoyan couldn’t bear it and wanted to bring them over to recuperate for a while. Yan Fei had no objections. Actually, the base’s range had been expanding, with pterosaurs no longer commonly seen. As long as they stayed within the pasture’s range, there was no problem.

The key was all the injured kids with fragile bodies were not able to move freely.

Even in the world of dinosaurs, it wasn’t possible to nurse them back to full health, only ensuring a basic level of self-sufficiency in the future. Luckily, there was no city turmoil here, which might help their psychological trauma a bit.

…

Yan Fei didn’t return to Sancha River; he was lazy to go back.

However, he called Uncle and gave him a very earnest suggestion: confiscate all of Lin Haihu’s secret savings until he passed all his exams at once.

This tactic was rather harsh because his words held so much sway in the venue, and everyone would surely team up with Lin Xiuqing to do this. Soon Lin Haihu would realize he could never save even a dime of pocket money.

This would essentially keep Lin Haihu’s pockets cleaner than his face until the end of time. Lin Haihu’s academic performance seemed inversely proportional to his combat power. The more unstoppable he was in the city’s night battles, the worse his grades were.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t possibly pass all subjects.

For instance, his worst subject was always foreign languages, and he still couldn’t be sure whether there were twenty-six or twenty-four letters—even many people might not understand how poorly students in rural schools performed in foreign languages. Many students genuinely reached high school without knowing many words.

Although now Lin Haihu’s English speaking skills were quite decent, mostly learned from Hong Kong truckers coming around to haul beef, he learned this to travel to Hong Kong, not for exams. Even though his oral skills were now mainly good enough for simple conversations, once on the exam, staring at the paper, he found those letters so familiar yet remained as the most familiar strangers…

All in all, if Lin Haihu’s performance next does not satisfy Yan Fei, his days ahead will be miserable.

Because Yan Fei suspected his own upcoming days might be difficult too—Xu Xiaoyan had been at the base while he was searching for Lin Haihu. To retrieve Lin Haihu’s bag promptly, especially the camera and camcorder inside, Yan Fei hid nothing from his wife this time.

Notably, the new laborers, including those being dealt with upon arrival, were all witnessed by Xu Xiaoyan.

This was the thing Yan Fei always avoided; he really didn’t want his wife to feel he was a tyrant relying on the dinosaur world to indulge his whims—though this was almost true.

…

In the dinosaur world, a row of children clad in new clothes squatted in the employees corner, sunbathing, holding a piece of golden-fried pancake, staring blankly at herds of black cattle.

Xu Xiaoyan sat nearby, her eyes red, clutching several books, browsing through in search of something. Occasionally she looked up at the group of kids then continued flipping through the books.
