Xiao Bai used the tray to serve three bowls of tomato and vegetable noodles.
He placed the tray on the table and used a pair of chopsticks to pick up a few strands of noodles that he threw into the small cage. The two hungry white rats could not afford to be picky with their food and started munching on it vigorously.
The three had their eyes fixed on the small cage as they watched the white rats eating happily.
After eating the noodles, the two rats lay there, not moving an inch. The three exchanged glances, then Xiao Bai opened the cage and used his hand to poke the white rat, but it lay completely still.
He whispered under his breath, "Did they pass out?"
An Xiaoning replied, "Let's wait and see."
Xiao Bai then proceeded to close the rat cage.
"When you went down just now, did you see the woman eating downstairs?"
