Chapter 198 Looking to the Future of Orinho
"The feed trough, chicken coop, and water trough need to be cleaned every few days, not to mention every day, to prevent bacteria from making the chicks sick."

"Site management is the most important job in a chicken house. The physiological structure of the chicks determines that they cannot metabolize in a fixed location. If this happens, the floor of the chicken house will be full of their excrement, which will not only smell bad, but also make the environment dirty and messy. It is best to clean it every day."

"I have asked the engineering team to build a fence around the chicken house. When the sun is good, the chicks can be placed outside to bask in the sun to keep them healthy. Pecking at the small stones in the soil can also help them digest food."

"This is basically the daily routine for taking care of chicks. Although it seems simple, you have to stick to it every day."

Luo Mu's eyes fell on several Pokémon that "applied" for the management of the chicken coop, and he assigned tasks to them one by one as if he was selecting soldiers and generals.

"Mr. Mosquito Repellent, you guys are responsible for the daily cleaning of the chicken coop, is that ok?"

The three mosquito coils looked at each other and happily accepted the job.

They have no talent for rain-making techniques, so it is enough to leave the irrigation of farmland and pasture to the Boss and Haxorus. They are more than happy to take on this new job.

"As for feeding and managing the chicks, Olinius, is it okay for me to leave it to you?"

Little Orliniu took the task seriously and was already looking forward to the arrival of the chicks.

Like Mosquito Repellent Coil, its power is still very weak. It is not very effective on grass fields and cannot play an outstanding role like Flower Therapy Huanhuan and White Fluffy Coil.

Take on the job of taking care of the chicks, and then continue to practice in your spare time to complete the final evolution as soon as possible.

When seeing the heroic appearance of Arcanine after its evolution, Orinyu began to look forward to his own final evolution.

It also pestered Luo Mu to learn about its evolutionary type. It is said that it will evolve into a Pokémon called Oliva. It is said that most Olivas are gentle and compassionate. They are extremely reliable Pokémon in the forest and are deeply loved by other Pokémon.

Orinyu was very envious of this and decided to become a Pokémon like that. The first step in his training was to take care of the chicks.

Just when Oriniu made up his mind secretly, Luo Mu assigned the task of patrolling the chicken coop to Houndoom and Arcanine, asking them to come and stand guard every day when the chicks were letting out some flying Pokémon passing by, such as Flamehawk, to prevent the chicks from being hunted by them.

Tonight is the fourth night as indicated by the system. There are still a few hours before the sun sets. Luo Mu picked up a fruit basket filled with farm crops and walked towards Pingdie Town.

He planned to visit the Jones couple and Peter who were lying in the hospital due to poisoning, and collect some clues before night fell.

He thought that the Pokémon that poisoned the food was most likely Painter, a Poison + Normal Pokémon, but he could not figure out the other party's motives.

Luo Mu learned a lot of information from Miss Junsha.

For example, including the incident on his own farm, Tu Biao Ke had poisoned four times in total.

Why would the tagger be so persistent in poisoning edibles on human farms or in homes? Is it seeking revenge for something?

Luo Mu hopes to gain some inspiration from talking with the Joneses.

However, there is one more thing to do before that.

Luo Mu walked straight to an ordinary ranch in Pingdie Town that specialized in selling animals.

He ordered a few chicks first. After he visited the Jones couple, the chicks would be delivered to the farm. Ward 209 of the Pingdie Town Public Hospital was the ward of the Jones couple, the owners of Jones Farm, one of the sources of agricultural supply for Pingdie Town.

Luo Mu, who had just come out of Peter's ward, knocked on the door gently.

Unfortunately, Peter only complained about his bad luck in this matter and was thankful that he still had the work injury compensation to receive.

He knew nothing about this matter. Luo Mu chatted with him for a few words and then left his ward.

A gentle voice with a slightly lowered tone sounded in the ward, and Luo Mu could vaguely detect that the voice was a little lacking in strength.

"Please come in."

Luo Mu pushed open the door of the ward, and the familiar smell of disinfectant hit his nose. What he saw was the gifts of comfort that almost filled the entire corridor of the room. It was obvious that there were many people visiting the Joneses.

Luo Mu raised his eyebrows, carefully avoided the gifts and walked into the room.

His eyes cast towards the two beds in the ward. The woman on the left bed was sleeping soundly and did not respond to his arrival.

A gray-haired man sat on the bed on the right. He put his finger to his dry lips and whispered, "Please forgive me. Madam has been unable to sleep well because of the paralysis caused by the toxin. She finally fell asleep now. Please tell me if there is anything."

Luo Mu nodded slightly, put the fruit basket aside, and sat on the chair next to the man's bed: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Jones. I'm Luo Mu, the one who bought the land near Jones Farm."

Jones smiled and said, "It's you. Peter mentioned you to me before."

Luo Mu nodded slightly and said straight to the point: "In fact, I also encountered the same poisoning incident that you, Mr. Jones, encountered a few days ago. The only difference is that I discovered the existence of the toxin by coincidence."

"I hope to get some clues from you about the poisoner."

"I see." Jones lowered his head and sighed. "At the time, my wife, Peter and I were receiving an important buyer and invited him to taste the crops. We didn't expect that the crops were smeared with toxins. Not only us, but also the buyer was hospitalized due to poisoning."

"This all happened too suddenly. In fact, until now we have no idea why the other party chose to poison us."

"I'm as angry as you are, but I'm sorry I can't help you."

Jones looked very regretful.

"It's okay. Thank you for taking the time to chat with me today."

Luo Mu shook his head and was about to bow and leave when he suddenly noticed the orange clothes tightly held in the hands of Mrs. Jones next to him. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Mr. Jones, what is that?"

Jones followed Luo Mu's gaze and suddenly realized, "That's our grandson's school uniform. He goes to Orange Academy. He's very good, right?"

"My grandson often comes to play on the farm. My wife dotes on him very much. Maybe that's why she feels safe when she holds his school uniform, so she can fall asleep."
