Chapter 280: Don't Let Go of Passing Sparrows
"Let's go to the mountains. There are many wild animals in Bailu Mountain. You are poisonous, so they can't hurt you. You are agile, so even if you encounter humans, you can easily avoid them. So help me go to the mountains and find where those humans are. Find a way to mark them. Whatever you want, I can satisfy you."
"I'm bored. Snakes don't have any requests. I'm a bit full from eating tonight, so I just want to go for a walk nearby to eat."
After saying that, the cobra came down from Lin Ting's arm and swam towards the direction of Bailu Mountain where she pointed.
Seeing this, the two police officers lying in the bushes nearby couldn't help but give Lin Ting a thumbs up. "Sister Ting is amazing. Ever since Sister Ting came to our police station to help, everything we do has been done with twice the result with half the effort."
"If it weren't for Sister Ting tonight, we would probably have been in a fight."
"You don't have to compliment me. I didn't help you in any way. Even without me, you can definitely complete the task well. I'm just the icing on the cake." Lin Ting didn't take the compliments of the two people to heart at all. Instead, he took out a pack of biscuits from his pocket.
Just when the two thought Lin Ting was hungry and was about to have a snack, they saw Lin Ting crush the biscuits she had opened and put the crumbs on some leaves she had picked. She stood up, took two steps forward, looked at the sparrows standing on the tree, and said, "I'll treat you to some cookies."
Woo
'Invite us?'
"The bird must have heard correctly. There are actually humans who treat birds to delicious food."
"You heard it right, I'm inviting you." Lin Ting nodded in confirmation.
"This human is so amazing, he can actually understand birds talking."
"This is the first time a bird has seen a human who can understand bird language."
Out of curiosity, several sparrows flew towards Lin Ting from the tree branches. Some little sparrows stood on Lin Ting's fingers and ate the biscuit crumbs that she had put in the leaves on her palm.
Lin Ting didn't care about anything and just sat casually in the grass that was trampled by them, with his back to the people in the village ahead, looking through a telescope.
After a few sparrows finished eating the biscuits, Lin Ting crushed another biscuit and placed it on the tree, then asked, "Have you always lived in this area?"
"Yes, yes, the bird has been here since my great-grandmother's generation."
After hearing Lin Ting's question, a little sparrow raised its head and chirped in response.
Sparrows reproduce very quickly. Although my great-grandmother sounds very old, she actually hasn't been around for that long.
She asked in a guiding tone, "Have you ever been to Bailu Mountain behind?"
"I've been to the mountain behind us. I don't know what it's called. My great-grandmother told me that her great-grandmother used to go to the mountain behind us to eat millet. She said there used to be many farmers growing millet and corn on the mountain, and her great-grandmother would go there to eat millet. But my great-grandmother said that by the time they got there, there was no millet at all, and the land was barren."
"People in this village go up the mountain every day to catch small animals and secretly sell them to humans who eat them."
The bad guys even didn't let the birds go, saying that although the birds looked small, they could be roasted or stewed into soup after being killed. Anyway, since they were small, they could win by sheer numbers. The bird's grandmother warned the bird not to go up the mountain.
"One time, the bird accidentally flew to the mountains and saw with its own eyes those bad guys catch a beautiful flying chicken with lots of beautiful feathers. The people who caught the chicken were very excited and were going to sell it for a good price."
"They were so busy catching chickens that they didn't notice the bird, so the bird flew away secretly without their knowledge. Otherwise, the bird would have lost its life."
Lin Ting's eyes darkened instantly, and a strong chill emanated from her body, like the chill of March. Even the two police officers with their backs to her could feel it.
As expected, the beautiful chicken that Sparrow was talking about was the Golden Pheasant.
"When did these people start going to the mountains to catch those small animals?" Lin Tinglian's tone became a little gloomy.
'Let the bird think.'
Just when this sparrow was silent, another sparrow started chirping.
"It's been a long time, since Bird's grandmother was a child. Bird's grandfather was captured by those bad guys."
Lin Ting calculated the time according to what Sparrow said. It was at least a year ago that Fenghao Group decided to invest in other villages to start the resort project.
This is because they failed to get money from Fenghao Group, so they turned their attention to these small animals in the mountains.
And no one has noticed it for such a long time. If the truck driver had not been accidentally caught by the police at the checkpoint, no one would have noticed it.
If this continues, it won’t take long before all the wild animals in the mountains are hunted down and become extinct.
After all, they don't even let the little sparrows go.
Lin Ting slammed his other hand heavily into the grass.
Seeing this, Si Chen handed the tablet to the other two colleagues and took two steps to Lin Ting's side. "What's wrong?"
Lin Ting told Si Chen all the information he got from Sparrow.
Si Chen's face was equally gloomy. Besides being angry, he was also concerned about Lin Ting's hand.
"We will definitely bring those who hunt animals to justice and will not let them go unpunished. But listen, even if you are angry, don't play with your body. There are rocks everywhere, and many of them are blocked by weeds and you can't see them at all. If you hit a rock and injure your hand, it will not be worth it."
"Is there anything wrong with your hand?" Si Chen wanted to go behind to check on Lin Ting's fingers, but when he stretched out his hand halfway, he silently retracted it.
His sudden approach might make Lin Ting feel uncomfortable.
He took out his cell phone from his pocket, but without turning on the flashlight, he just turned on the screen to provide some light.
Lin Ting raised her hand, and with the light from Si Chen's phone screen, she could see that her knuckles were red, and one part was even red and swollen.
Si Chen pushed away the grass that Lin Ting had just hit, and sure enough, he saw a smooth stone underneath.
Fortunately, Lin Ting was not very strong. If he had been a little stronger, his finger would have bled.
He lowered his eyes to hide the pain in his eyes, "Don't do things that hurt yourself in the future. If your brother knew about this, he would think I didn't take good care of you."
In order to avoid revealing his own thoughts, Si Chen tried to use a relaxed tone and shift all his concerns to others.
Lin Ting withdrew his hand and rubbed it on his clothes. He didn't feel any pain just now, but now he began to feel a dull pain. "I was just too excited just now. It's nothing, and it doesn't hurt much."
"Don't worry, senior. My brother won't know. Even if he does, it was just an accident. I will never let my brother cause you any trouble."
The other two police officers squatting behind the two of them stared at the images transmitted by the tablet kitten while watching the melons behind them.
The two couldn't help but shake their heads helplessly. One of the officers lowered his voice and said, "Our captain usually handles things neatly and decisively, but why is he so troubled when it comes to relationships?"
