start with a pet store

Chapter 963 Pikachu

"Haha, little monkey..." Lu Chen and Lu Xi thought the name was quite interesting and started to call it.

The little monkey seemed to like the two siblings very much and made all kinds of funny faces in front of them, making the two little ones laugh non-stop.

It also aroused the envy of other children.

When they returned to the store, the big turtle had not arrived yet. Lu Jingxing told Xiao Liu about the situation, handed the little monkey over to the bathroom staff, and then sent Xiaobao and the others home.

The whole day was like a war. Although we went out to relax, it was actually not relaxing at all.

After sending them back, Lu Jingxing just arrived at the store and saw a new species in the store.

The owner brought an extra-large aviation box and placed it in the middle of the hall, attracting everyone in the store to come and take a look. After all, it was a breed they had never seen before, so everyone was curious.

As a result, the owner didn't dare to let it out easily, for fear that the little guy would be frightened and the children in the store would be frightened.

When the owner saw Lu Jingxing coming in, he stood up immediately as if he had seen a savior: "Doctor Lu..."

Lu Jingxing smiled and nodded: "What's wrong with Xiao Gangzi?"

That’s right, it was a little kangaroo named Xiao Gangzi. The owner came to see it once last year when he bought it. Lu Jingxing was quite impressed, so he recognized it immediately when he saw the owner.

Then he squatted down and opened the cage: "Xiao Gangzi?"

Shouted to the little guy inside.

The little guy was still a little confused. He had never seen so many people at once and was indeed a little scared.

"It's okay, it's a herbivore and won't bite people. But everyone should not get too close to it for fear of scaring it." Lu Jingxing reached in and scooped Xiao Gangzi out so that everyone could enjoy the sight. Otherwise, these people would probably go to the office to watch.

"Let's go to my office." After letting everyone look at it, he said to the owner who was helping to hold the box on the side.

"Oh, okay..." The owner hurriedly followed Lu Jingxing carrying an empty box.

The two entered the office, and Lu Jingxing put Xiao Gangzi on the table. The little guy was a little bigger than last year, but there was not much change, at least not in Lu Jingxing's opinion. This should be because of his small breed.

The little guy was quite obedient. He didn't need to be pressed down when he was put on the table. He immediately half-squatted and looked at Lu Jingxing in a daze.

"I don't know what's wrong with it. These days, it likes to run outside all the time and doesn't want to stay in its nest. It shivers from time to time and doesn't want to drink water. But if we give it radishes or something, it likes to eat them very much..." After the male owner sat down, he explained the cause of the incident.

Lu Jingxing reached out and touched the little guy's belly first. There was nothing unusual in the small bag, and then he touched its skull.

The most common problem for kangaroos is bone tumors. Many kangaroos have this problem, which is also the most dangerous. It is usually difficult to save them once they are discovered. This is also what Lu Jingxing is most worried about.

But after Lu Jingxing looked around, he didn't seem to find any problems.

He frowned slightly: "It seems that you don't find any problems, you just don't want to drink water?"

Lu Jingxing raised his head and asked.

"Yes, it just doesn't want to drink water, and it's always jumping around as if it has fleas on its body, and it's scratching and rubbing hard at one place. This phenomenon has never happened before." The owner reached out to the little guy and pulled: "I have dewormed it, and I don't see any bugs on it."

While he was talking, Lu Jingxing poured a bowl of water and placed it in front of the little guy.

The little guy, who just said that his owner didn't want to drink water, swallowed his saliva, then slowly came over and tried it out. After finding that there was no problem, he immediately started drinking in big gulps.

"Drink..." Lu Jingxing thought about the little guy's actions just now with some confusion, and then looked at his owner.

"Hey? What's going on? It doesn't even go near the water machine at home. It's been like this for the past two days." The owner was even more shocked.

Lu Jingxing silently opened his heart and asked the little guy: "Xiao Gangzi, the master said that you don't drink water at home, what's going on?"

The little guy paused while drinking water, raised his head to look at Lu Jingxing, then looked back at his owner: "Ssssss, that water has thorns, woo woo it hurts..." The little guy seemed to be recalling something as he spoke, and the feeling of recalling made him a little scared.

The owner was still saying, "That's impossible. It really doesn't drink at home. I thought it was seriously ill. It's strange. Why did it drink here? Is there something different about your water?"

Lu Jingxing smiled and shook his head: "I think it's probably not the water's problem. If it's not sick, you can go back and try to see if there's something wrong with your water dispenser..."

"Water dispenser? What's the problem with that?" the owner was puzzled.

"Based on your analysis, I feel that the water dispenser may be leaking electricity. And I remember you posted on your circle of friends that the small house you built for it was welded with stainless steel, right?" Lu Jingxing said with a smile.

"Ah? It's welded with white steel, and there's a leakage?" The owner stared at Lu Jingxing with wide eyes, then looked at his little Gangzi who was still drinking water. It was obvious that the little guy was not doing his job well.

Then he immediately took out his cell phone and called his family: "Dad, can you help me get a tester to check Gangzi's water dispenser?... Oh, don't ask, just find a tester and you'll know..."

"There really is electricity, the pen has a red light, right? Damn, no wonder it seemed to have thorns on its body. I was wondering why it wanted to run outside these two days. It turns out there is a leakage. Fortunately, it was not electrocuted to death. Please turn it off quickly, I'll be back soon." After saying that, he looked at Lu Jingxing.

"Doctor Lu, you are amazing. You can even guess this..." The owner was full of admiration.

Lu Jingxing laughed: "You didn't think about it that way, or if you let it out at home, it will find water to drink by itself."

"You know what, it actually went to find water to drink by itself. However, it scolded us back. How could I have known that it was the water dispenser that was leaking electricity?" The owner picked up Xiao Gangzi, who had finally drunk enough water, with an apologetic look on his face and kept saying sorry.

The little guy drank enough water and kept humming in his owner's arms. "You little bastard, you almost electrocuted me to death. Luckily, I was lucky enough and almost became Pikachu."

"Thank you, thank you. Then I'll take it home. Is there any need for any other examination?" asked the owner.

Lu Jingxing shook his head and smiled, "If there is no other problem, there is no need to do other tests. I don't see any other problems."

The owner kept scratching his head: "Haha, I thought there was something wrong with it. Now it's fine. It's best if it's fine. Thank you very much, Dr. Lu. You are really good. You can tell the problem right away."

Ji Ling happened to come in and saw Xiao Gangzi's owner walking out with the dog.

She looked at Lu Jingxing's smiling face and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so happy?"

Lu Jingxing chuckled: "Little Gangzi's owner thought that Xiao Gangzi had some serious illness, so I helped him analyze that it was because their water dispenser was leaking. You don't know, Xiao Gangzi's nest is made of stainless steel. The water dispenser leaks electricity, and the small house conducts electricity. If it was two days later, I'm afraid the little guy would have been electrocuted." "Ah? Haha... is there such a thing?" Ji Ling couldn't help laughing.

As the two were laughing, Ding Fang ran over and said, "Brother Lu, the people from the zoo are here."

"Oh, okay..." Lu Jingxing responded and walked out immediately.

He called a few people together and carried the big turtle in.

The person who came with me happened to be Ahua.

"Does it have a name?" Lu Jingxing asked Ahua as he ordered the employees to lift the big guy out of the cage.

"Ah? It's the ninth one in the garden. We sometimes call it Turtle Nine and sometimes just Old Nine." Ah Hua was stunned and said quickly.

"Guijiu, okay, I'll call it Guijiu... Now, everyone, carry it to the operating table. We need to do a CT scan on it. It also has stomatitis and needs treatment. Let's do a CT scan on it first and carry it to the CT machine." Lu Jingxing directed the employees.

Several people worked together to lift Turtle Nine and finally put it on the CT machine with great effort.

The main focus was on the belly, so the little guy was placed on his back. He kept trying to turn over and struggled with his legs for a long time. The employees had no choice but to press one of its legs each to hold it down.

Although everyone was still a little afraid that it would suddenly bite them, firstly due to work requirements and secondly because of curiosity that outweighed fear, they unexpectedly held it down, and the little guy gave up after struggling for a few times, looking like he was ready to be slaughtered.

The more daring employees even dare to touch its belly with their hands.

"How do you perform this operation? Its stomach is hard too?" the employees asked Lu Jingxing curiously.

While taking a CT scan of the little guy, Lu Jingxing said with a smile: "There must be some places that are not bones..."

"Oh, that means the operation is done near the leg." Jian said clearly.

"Okay, Ji'an, go call Guijiu's keeper in and I'll tell him about the situation." Lu Jingxing said, looking at the screen.

Soon, Ahua followed Jian in.

"Ahua, come here and take a look. Ah, this turtle has found four eggs in total. Now we can see that two of them are confirmed to be bad eggs. The other two seem to be fine at first glance, but we will have to wait until after the operation to know the details..." Lu Jingxing said to Ahua, pointing at the screen.

Ah Hua nodded continuously: "Oh, OK, then we have to take them all out, right?"

Lu Jingxing nodded: "Yes, it can't be discharged by itself. You see, it's mainly because of these two that are blocking it. One is horizontal and the other is vertical, and they are tilted 90 degrees. Therefore, the following ones can't be discharged at all. Moreover, the latter one has been broken. Therefore, surgery is the only option."

"Okay, I'll talk to our director, and you can do it the way we want." Ah Hua didn't understand all this, but he knew that if Lu Jingxing said he wanted surgery, then he must have it, so he naturally had no objection.

Lu Jingxing waved to the staff in the CT room and said, "Okay, let's find a way to carry it to the operating room and prepare for surgery immediately."

Jian took Ahua out to prepare to sign the consent form for surgery.

Xiao Jiu ran over and followed Lu Jingxing: "Brother Lu, let me perform this operation. I won't be performing any operations later. Brother Liu will be performing another operation later."

Lu Jingxing smiled and nodded: "Okay, then go and prepare the operating table and prepare to give Guijiu anesthesia."

"Okay..." Xiaojiu turned around and ran away happily.

He had never seen surgery performed on a turtle before. This was another opportunity to broaden his horizons, so he certainly didn't want to miss it.

Lu Jingxing was originally going to help, and it didn't matter who it was, because he couldn't handle such a big thing by himself, so he called Ji An as well: "Put on your surgical gown and come with me into the operating room. You'll need to help me later..."

Jian pointed at himself in disbelief and asked, "Me?"

"Well, what? You don't want to?" Lu Jingxing asked curiously.

"How could that be? I am willing to do so. I will go change it right away..." Jian jumped three feet high with joy. How could he not want such a rare opportunity?
Then, as if she was afraid that Lu Jingxing would go back on his word, she ran to the operating room without waiting for him to say anything.

Lu Jingxing was writing the surgical form when there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in..." He said without even raising his head.

"Brother Lu, I heard that you are going to perform surgery on a turtle. Can I watch? I have nothing else to do later." Xiao Sun walked in pitifully and lay on Lu Jingxing's desk.

Lu Jingxing then raised his head and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go together, hurry up and get ready, we'll be in the operating room soon."

Xiao Sun had a similar reaction to Ji An and also trotted into the operating room.

Ah Hua, who was waiting in the corridor, saw Lu Jingxing coming out and couldn't help asking, "Brother Lu, is Guijiu in danger? Why are so many doctors in? Is the operation particularly difficult? The director just asked me and I said it was no problem."

Lu Jingxing patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, although it is a little troublesome, it is not life-threatening. This operation is not big or small. The main thing is that Guijiu is so big, I can't take care of it alone if something happens. The operation does require several doctors. Come, sign this and I'll go in." He handed the consent form for the operation to Ahua, and then explained the circled key parts to him.

Ah Hua signed each one as he pointed out and began to wait patiently.

Lu Jingxing said hello to Ji Ling and went into the operating room.

If the operation goes smoothly, it will take about an hour. If the egg is difficult to remove, it will take a long time, but he has to do it as soon as possible.

"Come, start preparing to sedate it. Once it responds, we can start the surgery right away. Xiaojiu, you have to pay attention to its reactions at all times..." Lu Jingxing approached the operating table and prepared three sedatives at once.

Ji An is a curious baby: "Brother Lu, do you want three of these?"

"Turtles are the least resistant to anesthesia. Three injections may not be enough, depending on the length of the operation," said Xiao Sun.

Lu Jingxing nodded approvingly.

After the anesthetic took effect, Lu Jingxing began to perform surgery on Turtle Nine. He made a small incision at the bottom of Turtle Nine's shell, and according to the position taken by the CT scan, he successfully took out the two eggs in the incision.
