Chapter 213: Chapter 211: The Adorable Assassin, Chief Steward of the Ranch Makes His Debut!

Jiang Feng walked out from the chicken coop.

A weasel immediately ran to Jiang Feng’s feet.

It stood up straight, its two short little hands grabbing Jiang Feng’s pant leg, as if it had something to say.

This weasel had lived on the ranch for a while and was already familiar with the ranch’s situation.

Moreover, it had only eaten mice so far, and hadn’t eaten any chickens or ducks.

Jiang Feng felt that it was unlikely to be the culprit.

Jiang Feng squatted down and carefully examined the weasel in front of him.

Generally speaking, wild animals are afraid of humans and will run away when they see them.

But because Jiang Feng had spent a long time with these animals and always maintained a friendly attitude, they couldn’t help but trust him.

The weasel whined softly twice.

Weasels and otters are both mustelids and share the habit of being cute.

Though they aren’t as whiny as otters, they occasionally make friendly sounds.

This was the first time the weasel proactively ran to Jiang Feng’s side.

Previously, it would be nearby, but would run to Cat Boss to act cute.

"Don’t worry, I won’t wrongly accuse you."

Jiang Feng softly said.

Then, Jiang Feng immediately walked toward the surveillance room.

The surveillance on the ranch was quite comprehensive, as it was a large ranch, with almost no blind spots.

The surveillance room was in a small room, which had a large screen divided into sixteen squares, allowing for the selection of sixteen surveillance cameras to be displayed.

Jiang Feng selected the camera in front of the chicken coop and maximized the view.

Then he began to review the recordings.

A drone flew into the room, also capturing live footage in real-time.

At this moment, over 100,000 viewers in the live stream transformed into Sherlock Holmes, determined to find the chicken thief on the ranch.

Everyone watched very attentively.

It was as if they were investigating the case themselves.

Jiang Feng fast-forwarded quite a bit, as the hen had not yet died at this point.

Netizens quickly sent bullet comments:

[Host, reverse at 4x, 8x, 16x speed!]

[I am Qin Feng!]

[You’ve reversed too much, quickly go back, I saw that little guy!]

Jiang Feng then began fast-forwarding at 16x speed again.

Upon seeing the dead hen in the footage, Jiang Feng began to rewind.

As time got closer and closer, the viewers finally saw the culprit!

On the surveillance footage, a white, long-bodied animal snuck into the chicken coop.

It first paused outside the coop, curiously peering at the hens inside, then lowered its body into a hunting posture.

Seizing the moment when a hen turned its head, the little creature quickly darted forward, biting the hen’s neck from behind.

Poultry grabbed from behind have no way to escape.

Other roosters and hens saw this and quickly flew away, with some directly escaping into the coop.

However, one brave hen charged forward and pecked fiercely at the white animal.

The white creature immediately turned around, killing this hen too, then dragged it away.

Viewers began to discuss:

[The case is solved! It wasn’t the weasel; it was a white stoat!]

[What white stoat, it should be a ermine!]

[Looks like an ermine, anyway, it resembles a weasel!]

[Are there ermines on the grassland?]

[The animals on the Mongolian Grassland are similar to those in the Northeast, though they all reside in Mongolia’s forests.]

The bullet comments rapidly filled with discussion.

Jiang Feng, after seeing the animal in the video and reading the viewers’ comments, shook his head.

He explained to the viewers:

"It’s not an ermine, it’s a little weasel."

"Look closely, its body is very small, smaller than an ermine."

"The little weasel is the world’s smallest carnivorous mammal."

"This creature lives in semi-desert and grassland areas."

"Moreover, weasels change color; in summer, their back is brown, and in winter, they are completely white. This one’s a bit strange; it’s late summer, yet it’s white and hasn’t shed fur."

"You can think of a little weasel as a smaller weasel."

"This little guy is only slightly larger than a finger and is cuter than an ermine."

The viewers were astounded by Jiang Feng’s explanation.

This little white creature isn’t an ermine but a little weasel!

Jiang Feng enlarged the surveillance footage.

The cameras in his yard were high-definition, so he could clearly present the appearance of the little weasel.

As the camera zoomed in continuously, everyone finally saw the full appearance of the little weasel.

This creature was a small-sized white long-bodied animal, with a slender body covered in snow-white fur, jet-black eyes like gems, and a pink nose.

If you only look at the appearance, this guy is really cute.

But at the same time, it’s also a chicken-killing criminal!

"This is tricky. Not only is it a protected animal, but it’s also so cute."

Jiang Feng said, pondering secretly.

Some say life is equal.

This statement is actually taken out of context and is incorrect.

The original saying is "regardless of wealth or status, age or gender, human life is equal," meaning human life is equal.

Later, extreme animal protectors replaced "human life" with "life," saying life is equal.

But animal life is never equal.

Some lives, like mosquitoes and flies, are meant to die; some lives are only meant to be used as feed.

This is the law of nature.

Netizens who saw the cute little weasel frozen in the surveillance footage also shared their thoughts.

[So cute, let’s bring it to justice!]

[I think, well, eating two chickens is acceptable!]

[A chicken is only a few dozen bucks, so what’s the big deal if it eats two!]

[Farm owner, I’ll send you a spaceship, and I’ll pay for these two chickens!]

In this era, looks are justice.

The little weasel looks cute, and for a while, many netizens tipped in the livestream, asking Jiang Feng not to bother the weasel.

Some even offered to buy all the chickens in the coop just to feed the little weasel.

Human emotions are like this, depending on where the stance is.

For example, when a lion chases an antelope, some people hope the lion eats the antelope quickly, while others hope the antelope can escape.

Jiang Feng smiled faintly after seeing everyone’s comments.

As a farmer, if someone buys chickens, these chickens truly can be given to the little weasel to eat.

But this is not just a matter of property loss.

It’s a matter of farm safety.

Losing chickens is a minor thing, but when the chickens you raised face danger, Jiang Feng’s heart doesn’t feel right.

"This little guy probably hasn’t gone far, maybe even hiding near the farm."

"I need to go find it."

"Don’t underestimate this guy, as a relative of the weasel, the weasel’s hunting skills are strong and unbeatable for its size."

"When they hunt rabbits, they even dance for the rabbits."

"Rabbits see them as small, bouncing around, and don’t stay on guard."

"But once the weasel gets close to the rabbit, it makes a swift move, capturing it."

"This guy either loves hunting or is on the way to hunt."

"It mostly eats rabbits and mice, but somehow decided to eat my chickens this time."

Jiang Feng said to everyone.

Upon hearing Jiang Feng’s words, the netizens looked at each other.

This little thing is a killer!

[It even makes a sudden attack, this youngster really doesn’t play fair!]

[It even dances for the rabbit? Then gets close to kill it? That’s fierce!]

[You know what, I’m kind of starting to like this little guy!]

[Cute killer!]

The tone of the comments completely changed.

Everyone expressed their support for this little weasel.

But Jiang Feng didn’t condone it.

"The weasel is a protected animal, but in this situation, a lesson can be taught."

Jiang Feng said, then walked into the yard and loudly called out:

"Cat Boss!"

"Cat Boss!"

While he was shouting, the screen was covered with comments saying "Saipan." Also, there is indeed a sheep named Saipan in Jiang Feng’s sheep pen, and this calling joke was a favorite among many.

Soon, a tabby cat with a commanding stride and a killing gaze appeared on the wall.

The farm not only has a murder case but also a detective and an enforcer.

"This guy, I once named it Chief Steward of the Imperial Household, but it doesn’t do its job, losing out to the little weasel without knowing it."

"This time, I’ll have it find the weasel for me."

"Next is the game of cat and mouse!"

Jiang Feng looked at the approaching Cat Boss, a slight smile on his lips.

My farm, my rules.

A killer sneaking onto the farm to kill chickens is just not taking him seriously.

The netizens became even more excited seeing this.

What a spectacle, there’s a series to watch on this farm!

A major criminal investigation case – Who killed my chicken.

Officially starts.
