Chapter 1423: News of the Leopard’s Escape (1)

Thankfully, the traffic wasn’t heavy in the morning, so the return journey was much faster than the trip there. Curtis got back to the villa at 11:30 AM.

Muir was in the kitchen preparing lunch for Bai Qingqing. Curtis glanced outside the kitchen, then went to the bathroom to take a shower to rinse off the cosmetics and perfume testers, before holding his lunchbox and waiting.

Muir glanced at him in surprise and said with a tinge of pity, “I thought you weren’t coming back today.”

“If I don’t come back, will you be able to deliver the food to her?” Curtis cast an indicative look at his face. Muir frowned. Too many people recognized his face, so it wouldn’t be easy for him to go out.

Curtis asked, “Are they not back yet?”

“Mm, they went to look for an empty plot of land.” As Muir spoke, he turned off the stove and took the lunchbox from him, placing the cooked food into it.

Curtis said, “No need, I’ve found a suitable location.”

Muir halted in his actions and asked in surprise, “Where?”

Curtis succinctly described the location and environment, and Muir’s eyes instantly lit up. He said, “There’s actually a forest here? That’s great.”

Curtis said, “Humans don’t have the habit of marking such a place. I don’t know who to buy it from.”

Muir paused for a moment, then covered the lunchbox and said, “Leave this to me. I know some humans.”

“Okay,” Curtis replied and left with the lunchbox.

Though the school was an enclosed environment, the security wasn’t exactly tight. Curtis was able to jump over the wall into the school from a secluded spot.

When he arrived at the school, the bell for the fourth-period lesson happened to ring. He handed the lunchbox to Bai Qingqing under the classroom building, and Bai Qingqing returned yesterday’s lunchbox to him.

Then, like a spy, Curtis turned to leave immediately. Only Tang Li, who was right next to Bai Qingqing, could be certain that he had given her something.

“Heavens, how nice to have someone bring food to you,” said Tang Li as she dragged Bai Qingqing and ran.

Bai Qingqing smiled and lifted the lid to take a look. “So many dishes. You can just get some rice and share the dishes with me.”

“Awesome. Doggie, you’re wonderful,” Tang Li said excitedly.

Bai Qingqing shot daggers at her and said in a sinister tone, “Are you courting death?”

Tang Li chuckled and let go of her, then ran at an even faster speed. Although she was a bit chubby, her speed wasn’t slower than other people.

Bai Qingqing also sped up and quickly caught up to her.

Tang Li said in astonishment, “Since when can you run so fast? With that speed, you can take part in the autumn sports meet’s track event.”

Only then did Bai Qingqing realize that she was much more athletic than before. In the past, it hadn’t been so easy for her to catch up to Tang Li.

Bai Qingqing first ran to the canteen and helped Tang Li to queue up to get the rice. By the time Tang Li ran over, already tens of people were queuing at every window.

“Thanks,” said a panting Tang Li.

“You help me queue in the afternoon,” Bai Qingqing said, not standing on ceremony.

The two of them sat down in a corner in the canteen and played with their phones as they ate.

Tang Li suddenly said, “My goodness, a leopard that bit people to death in a zoo escaped the day before yesterday.”

“Eh?” Bai Qingqing edged closer to take a look. Who knew, what she saw made her spit out her food immediately.

Damn! Wasn’t the leopard leading the pack Parker? He got captured on camera again!

Tang Li’s phone screen was covered with rice. She shook her phone in disdain. Bai Qingqing hurriedly retrieved tissue and helped her wipe it clean.

Tang Li continued looking at her phone. The comments underneath the video had exploded. Most were happy at the news.

The zoo revealed that that leopard was supposed to have been euthanized on Sunday, but it unexpectedly escaped.
