Liang He was actually quite amazed by the little monkey's performance. However, on second thought, since she could communicate with the small animals and they could help her find clues, why couldn't an animal poison the water?
"Blue Star used to have circuses," Liang He explained. "Many animals there would be trained day and night just to put on a spectacular performance for humans."
Therefore, it wasn't impossible that someone had repeatedly conditioned an animal using specific scenarios, teaching it to crawl toward the water source without actually drinking.
"Perhaps the animal didn't even know what it was doing. It's just that the result of its actions poisoned the water and harmed the other animals," she concluded.
Hoder, who had initially been worried that Liang He might grow suspicious, secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her say this. Her logic was perfectly self-consistent, which saved him the trouble of finding excuses to keep her in the dark.
