Walkthrough of the quest “Hunting Exotic Pets: Reunion”
Raise your research level to 6
Return to the Life Furnace located in the same area. There you will find a Wisteria Bun similar to Gertha. She will need your help in growing new rarities. You will receive additional creature traits that will help you create the pets you need.
Interact with the Life Furnace again, go to the Explorer's Notebook and set yourself a new goal. Next, select the parents shown in the second screenshot below to create an intermediate pet with a purple shell and coffee filling.

After reaching research level 6, go to the creature that looks like Gerta. To do this, move to the “Pharmaceutical Cabinet” anchor in the same location, go down the stairs and chat with the robo-nanny.
Take a group photo with your creatures
Before taking a photo, you can press the "R" key to apply graffiti to the wall behind the creatures. Choose any drawings, as this will not affect the ending and your reward.

Once you've finished decorating the wall, talk to the robot and take a photo of the pets by standing next to them. Then show Ruan Mei's photo through your smartphone and talk to her for a while.
This will bring the task and the entire chain to an end. As a reward, you will receive credits, star jades and upgrade materials. Don’t forget to check out the event page to claim your reward there too.
