Chen Wen took the padded pants from Mr. Li.

"Big Orange, don't be afraid, I'm going to pull out whatever is stuck in you now."

Chen Wen comforted the Northeast Tiger, never letting go of his [Friendly] aura.

The Northeast Tiger endured the discomfort and cooperated with Chen Wen's actions.

As Chen Wen held open the Northeast Tiger's mouth with a piece of clothing, he took another look at the fierce chicken claw.

"Position confirmed."

Chen Wen took a deep breath, using every bit of speed-related skill available to him to the limit.

He slowly extended his hand into the mouth of the Northeast Tiger.

With every inch he went in, Mr. Li shivered.

It was as if the hand stretching in was his own.

"Gods protect, gods protect..."

Mr. Li murmured softly, starting to believe in mysticism.

Quickly, under the sensory function of [Fur (Mexican Golden Back)],

Chen Wen felt something ahead of his fingers.

It's the chicken claw!

His eyes sharpened, and he suddenly grabbed forward.

Then, with a speed he had never achieved in his life, Chen Wen jerked it out.

Thorn!

Accompanied by a fleeting shadow passing before Mr. Li's eyes, half of the chicken that had been bitten was pulled out by Chen Wen.

Safe!

Chen Wen relaxed for a moment.

But the Northeast Tiger, due to the removal of the foreign object, suddenly roared and gagged violently.

Chen Wen quickly saved Mr. Li's padded pants.

"Let's go, let's go!"

Not sure if the Northeast Tiger would unleash any wild instincts, Chen Wen tucked Mr. Li under his arm.

The divine skill [Swift] activated, assisted by various acceleration keywords.

Mr. Li felt light, his vision blurring.

The next second, he found himself outside the door.

Clang!

Chen Wen closed the iron door, looking at the Northeast Tiger through the little window.

The Northeast Tiger kept gagging, vomiting a lot of filth.

Chen Wen and Mr. Li watched this scene, unable to resist gagging themselves.

"Mother, what did it eat? That's some flavor!"

"All good stuff like beef and chicken."

Chen Wen said, continuing to observe the Northeast Tiger.

"It should be fine now, its life should be saved, let Mr. Liu and his team do the checkup."

Mr. Li put on his slightly damp padded pants, feeling emotional for a moment.

"This year was really thrilling! I've lived 69 years, and this year has been the most exciting!"

Chen Wen heard this and laughed, "Mr. Li, next year during the New Year, find me, I'll show you something even more exciting."

"No, no, my old bones can't handle much more."

Mr. Li said, glancing at the Northeast Tiger, "Big Orange should be calm now, what do we do?"

Chen Wen glanced at the now calm Northeast Tiger and said, "Here's what we'll do, I'll go in and get our stuff, and leave the rest for Mr. Liu and his team."

Saying this, Chen Wen gently opened the iron door.

"Big Orange, hey, it's me, don't be afraid, just treated you."

Chen Wen waved his hands, picking up things from the ground while watching the Northeast Tiger's every move: "How do you feel, much better now?"

The eyes of the Northeast Tiger, Big Orange, glowed with a unique light.

Just as Chen Wen finished picking up everything and was planning to leave,

An elderly voice said, "Thank you, human."

Chen Wen shuddered, almost dropping the phone in his hand.

He stared in shock at the Northeast Tiger, Big Orange, which looked back with a nod full of human-like understanding: "You saved me, I will repay you."

As the elderly voice faded, there was a ding in Chen Wen's mind.

"Whoa."

Chen Wen muttered, quickly exiting the tiger enclosure.

...

The storm on New Year's Eve soon ended.

Chen Wen contacted Mr. Liu again, telling him there's no need to come.

The half chicken stuck in the Northeast Tiger, Big Orange, had been pulled out.

Hearing the word "pulled," Mr. Liu was a bit dumbfounded.

But after Mr. Li's vivid explanation, Mr. Liu almost drove his car into a roadside ditch.

No? Young people these days are this fierce?

A simple exchange with Chen Wen and a glance at the Northeast Tiger's condition later.

Mr. Liu slowly drove back home.

It's New Year, who doesn't want to spend it at home?

After hanging up the call.

Mr. Li lay on the bed, bragging and laughing with his wife about his bravery.

Chen Wen eating tangerines beside him chimed in.

Mr. Li's wife saw through everything, asking Chen Wen if he was injured.

After chatting for a bit, Mr. Li took his phone and suddenly said, "Huh?"

"What's wrong?"

Chen Wen, eating a frozen pear, curiously looked at Mr. Li.

Mr. Li scratched his head and said, "I just called the Director's voicemail, but we didn't talk, did we?"

"Maybe it got bumped? Want to reach out to the Director again?"

Chen Wen frowned.

Earlier, his focus was all on the Northeast Tiger, unaware of the surrounding situation, not knowing about this incident.

Mr. Li nodded.

But when they called again, the other side didn't answer.

"Well, I'll send the Director a message with the details."

Chen Wen said, editing a message and sent it over.

Mr. Li happily nodded, urging his wife to serve the dishes.

He also opened a bottle of good wine, reportedly gifted by the former Director, and started drinking with Chen Wen.

...

On the first new year in this world, Chen Wen indulged in alcohol.

He and Mr. Li drank two bottles of liquor forcefully.

Until the next morning when the lady called them up, Chen Wen was still a bit dazed.

"Wait, how did I get home last night?"

Chen Wen scratched his head, gesturing in front of himself.

The memory was quite fuzzy, but the dumplings in front of him were very clear.

"Alright, let's eat dumplings!"

Chen Wen stopped thinking further, chewing the dumplings heartily.

As he finished eating, he recalled the Northeast Tiger, Big Orange, thanking him after the treatment.

It seemed like it was a special creature too.

Chen Wen thought, opening the system.

There was a new message in the system.

[Your friend—Northeast Tiger, has prepared a gift for you]

Chen Wen scratched his head, utterly surprised.

The entries from the Northeast Tiger are really fierce!

Two gold, to be exact, three gold!

Top-notch quality!

Both [Tiger Roar] and [Intimidation] are entries of extremely high quality.

Although [Ground Technique] is incomplete, once completed it can definitely stand out among gold entries.

Chen Wen scratched his head, feeling like he wants them all.

But ultimately, after careful consideration.

Chen Wen chose [Intimidation].
