Rescue and Release: The Zoo That Took the World by Storm [Livestream]

The blurb for the upcoming novel "The Knockoff Museum Drives the 'Experts' Crazy" is at the very bottom.

After spending several hundred years in the Animal Realm making Meng Po Soup, Meng Lulu thought she could finally retire in the Heavenly Realm and enjoy her hard-earned rest.

But just when she had finally put in enough years, what arrived was a notice ordering her to undergo a trial in the Human Realm.

She thought it was just an ordinary trial, but then Black and White Impermanence, and even the King of Hell, showed up one after another.

She began to notice things she had overlooked in the past.

White Impermanence was an anime-loving girl, Black Impermanence loved eating bamboo, and her infuriating former boss, who had taken early retirement years ago, had somehow become her mentor.

All the causes and effects were hidden in this trial.

In the human world, she built high-tech facilities, bred animals, and released them back into the wild.

While other zoos were busy winning fans with their animals' cuteness, she sent one animal after another back to nature.

A tiger with indigestion became the king of its territory, inspiring fear in all around it.

A snow leopard as fat as a gas canister became the best ally of the soldiers stationed at the border.

Even the national treasure, which had already embraced a lie-flat life, returned to its ancestral roots in the snowy wilderness of the Northeast, vowing to live like a proper bear.

With Meng Lulu's help, the animals that had once been kept in zoos became internationally renowned ambassadors for ecological conservation.

Years later, when Meng Lulu was awarded the highest international honor for ecological conservation, her influence had spread across the entire land of Donghuang and was reaching out to the rest of the world.

Expert: I am reporting the Chang'an Museum for corrupting the antique world.

Netizen: How is it corrupting it?

Expert: Everything on display in that museum is fake.

Visitor: Yeah, we know. Even the owner is surnamed Jia, which means "fake."

Expert: "You know they're fake, and you still go? How can modern imitations possibly convey the charm of history?"

Netizen: "But I think their knockoffs look more real."

Local: "Exactly. So what if it's a knockoff? We bought tickets to our provincial museum and all we got to see were a few photos."

Expert: ...

Museum, internally: It hurts too much to say.

Knockoff Museum, internally: In the relic business, if other places have it, we have it too. If they don't, we have it anyway.

Theme: Returning captive animals to nature.
