Guan Gu suddenly realized something.
"No way, Mingyang, you must be mistaken. That thing shouldn't be with me."

Zeng Xiaoxian pursed his lips, unwilling to believe it.
Whether it's a cockroach, a rat, or some other kind of cockroach-rat, he, with his obsessive-compulsive disorder, simply cannot tolerate it running into his clean and tidy room! Su Mingyang sighed and said, "Teacher Zeng, unfortunately, the cockroach-rat is probably playing on your bed right now. Remember to change the pillows, sheets, blankets, and everything else later."
"What!!!"
Upon hearing this news, Zeng Xiaoxian's eyes widened, as if struck by lightning, and he froze on the spot.
Lin Wanyu, Chen Meijia, and Guan Gu Shenqi looked at Zeng Xiaoxian with sympathy.
"Alright, please wait here for a moment. Next up is... the moment to witness something truly bizarre!"
After Su Mingyang finished speaking, he put on a pair of gloves, took a deep breath, and strode towards Zeng Xiaoxian's room.
"Mingyang, be careful."
Lin Wanyu watched Su Mingyang's retreating figure, her heart pounding in her chest.
Su Mingyang nodded, opened Zeng Xiaoxian's door, and immediately noticed a slight bulge under the thin blanket on the large bed.
With a nervous heart, he rushed to the bedside and pulled back the covers with lightning speed, only to immediately take several steps back upon seeing the cockroach-mouse.
There's no way around it, this thing is really ugly. Compared to it, even a rat could be called an angel.
No wonder Guan Gu and Mika were so terrified they ran away in a panic.
The cockroach rat was stunned. The moment Su Mingyang entered the room, it smelled his scent and was thinking of making a quick getaway when he tore off its protective gear.
Fortunately, it already has experience.
Taking advantage of the moment Su Mingyang was startled and stepped back, it immediately grabbed its long, thin tail and ran under the bed.
"You monster, where do you think you're going!"
Su Mingyang calmed himself down, let out a loud shout to bolster his courage, and his large hand descended like a cloud, directly grabbing the cockroach rat; its texture was soft yet firm.
Its belly was soft, but its wings were hard. In an instant, Su Mingyang got goosebumps all over his body.
"squeak"
The cockroach was pinned down, its six legs flailing wildly, its tail thrashing about, struggling incessantly.
Feeling the disgusting sensation of the cockroach-like rat wriggling in his hand, Su Mingyang became extremely irritated and snapped, "Don't move, or I'll crush you, you hear me?"
Upon hearing this, the cockroach rat sensed a strong killing intent and immediately fell silent, its two small eyes looking at Su Mingyang with pleading eyes.
"Um"
Seeing that the cockroach rat had really stopped struggling, Su Mingyang was a little surprised. He didn't know if the thing had understood what he said or was simply tired.
Just as I was pondering this, Lin Wanyu's voice came closer: "Mingyang, have you caught him yet?"
Chapter 200 Death!
"Gotcha."
As Su Mingyang spoke, he left the room and ran into Lin Wanyu who was coming towards him.
"Ah! There really are cockroach rats! They're incredibly ugly."
Lin Wanyu recognized the animal in his hand and quickly stepped aside, utterly astonished. After regaining her composure, she turned to look at Guan Gu Shenqi, "But its teeth aren't as long as you drew them, Guan Gu."
"Hehe, that's something I've artistically modified."
Guan Gu Shenqi scratched his head and said admiringly to Su Mingyang, "You rascal, Mingyang-jun, you caught it without spending much... effort!"
"Wow, Mingyang, that's impressive!"
Chen Meijia exclaimed in admiration.
"That is."
Su Mingyang smiled slightly, looked at Zeng Xiaoxian, and said, "Teacher Zeng, I wasn't wrong, it really is hiding in your blanket."
When the cockroach rat saw Zeng Xiaoxian, it immediately started squeaking, as if it were begging for help.
Unfortunately, Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't understand it at all. Even if he did, he wouldn't care about it and would rather it disappear from the world immediately—anyone who dirties the bed, no matter how ugly, must be punished! Zeng Xiaoxian looked at the cockroach rat, shocked and nauseous at the same time, and said with a face full of disgust: "This cockroach rat is ugly enough, but it's also so unhygienic. Mingyang, you should just euthanize it!"
The cockroach rat couldn't understand human speech, but it could sense human emotions and attitudes from expressions. Seeing Zeng Xiaoxian's hateful gaze, it felt extremely sad, and tears welled up in its small eyes.
Su Mingyang, oblivious to the cockroach rat's emotions, grabbed it and walked over to Zeng Xiaoxian, asking, "Teacher Zeng, what's the humane way to destroy it?"
Seeing the cockroach getting closer and closer, Zeng Xiaoxian had no time to reply. He was so frightened that he shrank into the corner of the sofa, waving his hands wildly as if he was about to be violated: "Get it away! Get it away!"
Seeing his reaction, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
"Is it really necessary, Teacher Zeng? The cockroach rat is being held by Mingyang; it can't climb on you."
Lin Wanyu joked.
"Haha, Teacher Zeng, you didn't believe cockroach rats existed just now, but you're scared to death by one now."
Chen Meijia laughed heartily.
Upon hearing this, Zeng Xiaoxian immediately forced himself to calm down, his face turning pale and then red, feeling extremely embarrassed. He feigned ignorance and said, "Who was scared out of their wits, Meijia? Don't talk nonsense, okay? I just felt utterly disgusted!"
Su Mingyang laughed and said, "It's alright, Teacher Zeng. I bet cockroaches and rats have been crawling on your bed for more than just the first day. Anyone would find it disgusting."
"hiss"
Hearing this, a chill ran down Zeng Xiaoxian's spine. So, he was indirectly in contact with cockroaches and rats every night? The thought was terrifying! For a moment, Zeng Xiaoxian felt his mind go blank, and he felt like he was about to collapse. He leaned weakly against the sofa.
"Right, if the cockroach rat was brought from Teacher Zeng's old apartment... it's been here for at least a week, right?"
Lin Wanyu guessed.
"Wanyu, you know what, these cockroaches and rats were most likely brought by Teacher Zeng; they weren't here before."
Chen Meijia agreed.
"It's not just possible, it's certain!"
Guan Gu Shenqi then transformed into Detective Conan, saying, "Think about it, why doesn't the cockroach rat enter our three-person room, but instead hides on Teacher Zeng's bed? There's only one truth: the cockroach rat has come to regard Teacher Zeng as family or a friend!"
"Who knows, maybe the cockroach rat is female and sees Teacher Zeng as her lover!"
Lin Wanyu came up with a wild idea.
"Pfft, hahaha!"
Upon hearing Lin Wanyu's guess, everyone except Zeng Xiaoxian burst out laughing.
Please stop talking.
Zeng Xiaoxian covered his head with his hands, unable to listen any longer; it was simply too shocking and morally reprehensible.
"Alright, Meijia, find something to put the cockroach rat in; it's too awkward to hold it in your hand."
Su Mingyang said.
"OK."
Chen Meijia nodded and found a cardboard box.
Su Mingyang immediately put the cockroach rat inside, then closed the lid, took off his gloves, washed his hands in the bathroom, and asked, "So, what do you guys think is the best way to deal with these things?"
Zeng Xiaoxian said eagerly, "I think we can drown, burn, or electrocute—we can choose from a variety of ways to die!"
Su Mingyang's lips twitched: "Is this what you call inhumane destruction?"
"Um."
Zeng Xiaoxian nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"This is too cruel."
Lin Wanyu frowned.
"I agree. If you ask me, it would be better to just smash it to death with a hammer; that would be quick and easy."
Chen Meijia said.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at Chen Meijia, thinking, "Are you serious? Why are you all staring at me like that?"
Chen Meijia thought for a moment, then said, "If you think smashing it to death won't work, you can chop it to death with a kitchen knife."
""
Did a girl really have to go through such bloody and violent violence? Everyone shook their heads helplessly.
Su Mingyang joked, "Okay, we'll do as you say, Meijia. I'll leave this to you."
"Oh no, how could a weak woman like me do this? Let Guan Gu handle it."
Chen Meijia immediately dismissed the matter, saying she was just joking; if she were to actually do it, it would be utterly disgusting.
Chapter 201 Teacher Zeng is beyond saving!
"Meijia, your method of handling this is far too harsh! I would never do that!"
Guan Gu Shenqi firmly refused.
"What can we do then? We can't just keep it as a pet."
