"Meng Shi, hang this display board here!"

"Meng Shi, move this platform over here!"

It was time for Meng Shi\'s muscular wonder to shine again. He could easily lift what it took three other animal keepers to move!

Lan Li looked at him with concern, "Boss, your throat must be tired from all the shouting. How about a drink of water?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Shi stumbled and nearly dropped the platform he was holding under his arm. His expression was full of grievance, "Sister Lan, can\'t you show a tool-man some respect?"

He was older than Lan Li, but the staff addressed each other by seniority.

Lan Li blinked innocently, "But you don\'t look tired at all. Eh, your expression looks just like Red Bean\'s!" .net

The nearby animal keepers looked closely, then burst into laughter, "Pfffhahaha! It really does!"

Meng Shi was speechless! What they said wasn\'t wrong... but there\'s no reasoning with a natural airhead.

Fang Ye started to feel a bit embarrassed, "Everyone worked hard today! After we finish setting up the tiger exhibit, I\'ll treat everyone to spicy crayfish tonight!"

"Yay!" "Long live the boss!" "I love crayfish the most!" There was also a discordant voice, "Can we have five-spice flavor?"

Meng Shi shouted in his heart that he had helped carry back the crayfish too! And by the way, Boss, could you stop making me carry groceries in tens of pounds when you go shopping? It\'s really overkill. I, Meng Shi, won\'t lift anything less than 100 pounds!

With a smile, Fang Ye said, "Meng Shi, you\'ve been performing really well lately. Tomorrow you can come with me to feed meat to Jiaojiao!"

Meng Shi smiled honestly and sincerely, "Thank you, Boss!"

Right, so right! Why bother with a few pounds when you can carry a hundred? Without these little workouts, how can you expect big improvements?

Energized, he carried the platform quickly away with a "swoosh swoosh swoosh".

With everyone\'s hard work, the exhibition was finally set up! The long-anticipated system prompt also popped up.

"Ding! The tiger exhibit is complete, and a new milestone reward is available to claim!"

Fang Ye immediately claimed the milestone reward, which included 10,000 green leaf coins and a special tiger exhibit gift pack.

Curiously, he thought, "I wonder what the exclusive gift pack for the tiger exhibit will contain? A tiger specimen, maybe?"

Upon opening the exclusive gift pack, the system announced, "Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Tiger Paw arcade machine!"

"What, an arcade machine?"

Fang Ye was a bit flabbergasted. Checking the description, it turned out not to be what he had in mind but was actually an arcade machine loaded with tiger-themed games!

It looked similar to a standard arcade machine but didn\'t have complex joysticks—just two tiger paw-shaped buttons on each side.

The game installed was called "The Fate of the Tiger," similar to Monopoly. Players rolled dice to determine their steps and then would encounter different events, such as hunting, patrolling, resting, and so on.

Every few rolls of the dice, the playing field would change, for example, "poachers have set up traps on the mountain," and some of the resting forest squares would be replaced with animal traps, stepping inside could result in blood loss.

Roll the dice a few more times, and it might be "the nearby factory has polluted the water source," turning the clean stream squares into polluted wastewater, drinking from which would result in blood loss. If one couldn\'t reach clean water squares for a long time, one would have to drink wastewater to survive, or endure thirst to find the next precious clean water source.

Meanwhile, the prey in the forest would also become scarce!

With each round, the living environment would become more hostile, as the city expanded, habitats decreased and fragmented, and interactions with human life increased. One might get captured by a zoo, shot by a hunter, or hit by a car or truck while crossing a road...

There was a small chance of good things happening, like environmental groups advocating or policies being enacted to protect wildlife, and humans would slightly restrain themselves. They might return one or two city building squares to forest, relocate factories, and so on.

Some events in the middle offered choices! For instance, whether to drink wastewater? When starving, whether to attack an Asian black bear?

Although bears are on a tiger\'s hunting list, they wouldn\'t bother them when there\'s plenty of food. Why risk injury or even death fighting a bear when one could hunt pigs, sheep, or deer?

If one had been shot by a hunter or hit by a car and hadn\'t died, would one drag one\'s severely injured body to flee, or, recklessly, retaliate against humans with roars and claws, releasing the anger within?

Through the game, visitors could directly feel the series of impacts that human behavior has on the living environment of tigers. When they pressed their palms against the tiger paw buttons to roll the dice and make decisions for the tiger, they couldn\'t help but feel a sense of shared fate with the tiger and better understand the significance of protecting nature.

The game\'s name was "The Fate of the Tiger," but wasn\'t it also "The Fate of Humanity"?

The only similarity between this Tiger Paw arcade machine and gambling slot machines was that one could rig it by adjusting the odds!

Every few rolls of the dice the environment would deteriorate. Normally, one might survive for five minutes but with good luck persistence for ten minutes could lead to completion.

But after adjusting the odds, the deterioration of the environment would accelerate. Normally after five dice rolls there would be 3-5 negative squares, but now there might be 10 in one go, leading to death within two minutes.

When there were fewer visitors, one could play slowly by oneself. On weekends and holidays when there were more visitors, the difficulty would be increased to end a game session earlier, reducing the waiting time for those queued up behind.

"Hey, this game is pretty good, and the design is quite user-friendly!"

After roughly understanding the play mechanics of the Tiger Paw arcade machine, Fang Ye felt an itch to try it out right then.

He would wait until his schedule cleared before playing. Right now, he still had to bring Jiaojiao over.

To Jiaojiao\'s enclosure!

Jiaojiao had been lying down lazily watching the world outside her enclosure, but upon seeing Fang Ye, she immediately stretched lazily and stood up, walking leisurely to the metal mesh and looking at him with gentle tiger eyes.

She let out a roar as a greeting, her cheek brushing against the metal mesh, rubbing it tenderly in a coquettish manner.

"Good girl!"

Once inside the enclosure, Fang Ye, as usual, squatted down, hugged Jiaojiao\'s neck, felt the thick fur around her neck, scratched her fluffy chin, and then stroked down her sturdy back all the way to the tail, leaving both himself and Jiaojiao feeling blissfully pampered, with a face full of enjoyment.

The other keepers wouldn\'t dare to be so bold, watching from behind the bars. Meng Shi, arms crossed and looking envious, commented, "Every time I see this scene, I find it incredible. Why can the director be so close to the tigers?"

"The director is like a..."

Lan Li stopped herself mid-sentence, realizing it was the director\'s secret! Quick thinking, she changed her tune: "He\'s so loving! Of course, the animals like him! Ah, hurry up and push the cart to the door!"

Inside the enclosure, Fang Ye rubbed Jiaojiao\'s big head and smiled, "Jiaojiao, we\'re moving today! You won\'t have to stay in this little cage anymore."

Jiaojiao tilted her head, looking at him, puzzled: "Roar!"
