Zhong Zichuan was kidnapped and the panda cub went missing.
As the last volunteer left Denglou Mountain, Chen Chunlai could only announce the end of the search and rescue operation and turned it to an internal investigation.
But Zhong Zichuan's whereabouts once again became a topic of discussion among everyone.
"When they took Zhong Zichuan away, they probably didn't find the panda, otherwise they wouldn't have left such a message."
As Jin Cheng spoke, his eyes were fixed on Xiao He.
"Zhong Zichuan said, do you know where the panda is? Do you know?"
Xiao He shook his head slightly.
"I don't know. Zhong Zichuan wouldn't say something like exchanging a panda cub for himself, but..." She paused and continued, "I should be able to find it."
Although the words Lili said were not left by Zhong Zichuan.
But if he hid the panda, he would definitely leave a backup plan for me to take over.
As long as Denglou Mountain is cleared, the space she can use her skills will immediately become larger.
Late that night.
All the people stationed at the foot of Denglou Mountain in the past two days have been evacuated. This deep mountain has become quiet again, covered with a thick veil, dark clouds covering the moon, and no light can be seen.
Xiao Hegangshan took out the panda hair and put it under William's nose, letting him sniff it.
"It's up to you from now on."
As soon as he finished speaking, the tall wolfhound raised its head and carefully distinguished the subtle smell in the air.
The wind blew its soft gray hair, reflecting silver waves. Its gray-blue eyes glowed slightly in the night, and its gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the darkness.
It seemed as if it sensed something, but suddenly its gaze became sharp and it suddenly ran wildly in one direction.
As Xiao He ran, he threw the mutant hamster out of the space, turned over and sat on its back, following closely behind William.
William ran so fast that the gravel and broken wood on the ground seemed to be non-existent to him. He turned into a silver light and quickly shuttled through the woods.
But Xiaoguai behind him was also fast, and in a short while, he ran to the place where Zhong Zichuan was captured.
William stopped and carefully distinguished the breath in the air, not missing a single clue. Finally, he slowly came to a tall tree and stared at a cluster of branches high up in the tree, motionless.
That location is about three meters high and ordinary people can't notice it at all.
But now, you can clearly see that the leaves on it are a little wilted, which must have been put there intentionally.
Xiao He jumped up directly, stood on the branch, carefully removed the branches and leaves blocking the outside, and found that there was a tree hole inside.
The entrances to the tree holes were blocked with stones, leaving only some gaps for ventilation.
It was quiet inside.
She quickly moved the stone away. It was pitch black inside and only the faint sound of breathing could be heard.
There are creatures inside.
Xiao He's eyes softened, he stretched out his hand towards the cave, and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Zhong Zichuan asked me to pick you up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the dark clouds in the sky were blown away by the wind, the moonlight was bright, and a pair of bright eyes appeared in the tree hole.
The panda cub cautiously poked its head out, its chubby figure appearing under the moonlight.
The tender little paw rested on Xiao He's palm and cried out at the same time.
“Hmm.”
Known as the cutest animal in the world, it had watery eyes and used its hands and feet to climb up Xiao He's arm. It slipped several times in the middle and looked aggrieved.
In the evening, when Zhong Zichuan found himself being caught up by those people, he immediately took action and hid in this tree hole.
The man blocked the hole little by little, whispering:
"Stay inside and don't move or make any noise. If I don't come back, the captain will definitely find you."
So Tuanzi stood there motionless, and could only watch Zhong Zichuan lead the others away through the gap.
At this time, it was squatting on Xiao He's shoulder. When it smelled a familiar scent on the other person, it immediately stretched its neck and whimpered anxiously, as if it was complaining and felt that it had suffered a great injustice.
Xiao He climbed down from the tree swiftly.
"Is this the stolen panda?"
At this time, William and Xiaoguai also came over, opened their eyes wide, looked at the little thing in front of them curiously, and even came forward to sniff it.
The little cub was not afraid of them at all. He marched in steps and walked towards them with a proud and confident look, as if he was very clear about his protective status. He simply pulled Xiaoguai's fur and climbed onto him.
The mutant hamster swung its long, thick tail and tried to slap it down several times, but was stared back at by the other party with round eyes:
Take a picture of me?
What level of protected animal are you?
Xiaoguai wagged his tail, then finally let it go.
Seeing this, Xiao He couldn't help but smile.
"Okay, let's go back first."
zoo.
Xiao He had just sent the panda here when Jin Cheng and Xiao Zhang rushed over after hearing the news. Seeing the half-month-old cub they had been looking for burying its head in the iron basin and drinking milk with a grunt, they finally felt relieved.
"Where did you find it?"
Xiao He said casually, "I discovered it by accident when I was climbing Loushan Mountain."
Jin Cheng was surprised and couldn't help but look at her twice more, but didn't ask any more questions.
He said, "What are you going to do now? The poachers just sent us a message saying that the transaction location is near an abandoned plantation in the suburbs."
As he spoke, he pointed to the direction on the map.
Xiao He instantly felt familiar.
Isn’t this the land she bought before?
“How do I choose that side?”
Xiao Zhang explained, "The botanical garden is nestled against a mountainous area, with a coastline behind it. I suspect they planned to take the pandas and then flee directly to the high seas by boat."
Hearing this, Xiao He frowned and thought.
The poachers last time might have wanted to sneak through there, and the panda cubs escaped, so they got into Zhong Zichuan's car.
It seems that they have the same plan this time.
As they were talking, zoo staff came out.
"How is it? Is the panda okay?" Jin Cheng asked anxiously.
The other party smiled and nodded.
"Panda cubs at this age are actually very fragile. Giant pandas in the wild usually only give birth to one cub per litter, and they are kept with their parents for one to two years before becoming independent. They are often spoiled and become picky eaters with bad tempers. But this one is not picky at all, even eating sour dates, and has a very good temper. It is the most well-behaved cub I have ever seen."
Xiao He said, "My artist risked his life to protect it. Please take good care of it."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Jin Cheng said anxiously, "Wait, Xiao He, you haven't told me yet what your plan is. They're offering to trade Panda for Zhong Zichuan in tomorrow's deal. Do you still want to do it?"
"Change." Xiao He said firmly.
He opened his eyes wide.
"What do you want in exchange?"
Xiao He: "Of course it's a panda."
The next day, the police waited anxiously near the plantation, feeling very uneasy.
"Xiao He said he wanted to exchange the panda for Zhong Zichuan. Could that be true?" Xiao Zhang said nervously.
Last night, Xiao He left without further explanation after finishing his words, leaving them unable to sleep well the whole night.
If they had to exchange the panda cub they had finally found, wouldn’t all their work for the past half month have been in vain?
Jin Cheng frowned.
"Pandas are important, and Zhong Zichuan's safety is also important."
Even so, he was also very worried, fearing that Xiao He would really hand over the panda cub in exchange for his own artist.
They waited nervously, and after a while, Xiao He finally appeared, holding a handsome wolfhound in his hand.
"Are you all ready?"
Jin Cheng nodded, then looked around her suspiciously and asked, "Where's the panda?"
"Wait a moment."
Xiao He dropped a few words, then pulled out a panda doll costume from his bag and put it on the wolfhound on the spot.
Put on your hood and zip up.
The originally handsome and majestic William suddenly transformed into a round and chubby panda, and from the back, it looked so real.
But if you look at it from the front...
The wolfhound had the word resentment written all over his face.
Xiao He touched its head and said calmly, "The panda is here."
Xiao He directly created a panda, and it was so hardcore that all the police officers were silent on the spot. They looked at the "bear" in front of them with indescribable expressions.
Very doubtful.
"Can you fool people like this?"
Xiao He: "This is a simulated panda leather case I specially customized. As long as you don't look closely and cover my face, you won't be able to see it."
Jin Cheng hesitated for a while, and finally nodded.
"Then let's give it a try. This is the only way now."
After saying that, everyone immediately took action.
Xiao He was holding the wolfhound's head, conducting a high-intensity brainwashing:
"William, remember, from today on, you are a first-class protected animal. Your status has skyrocketed. Are you happy?"
William: ...
Pulling the tail.
The blue-gray eyes were filled with silence.
Do you see me looking happy?
"Woof! Woof woof woof!"
Xiao He had a strong sense of conviction. "You can't bark anymore. Come on, meow."
William: ...
“Bing!”
"clever!"
Xiao He gave a thumbs up.
When the principal saw this scene, his worldview was almost disrupted. He was stunned and nervously went to find Jin Cheng.
"Why do I feel so unreliable?"
Hearing this, Jin Cheng looked back and saw Xiao He giving the dog panda training. He froze for a moment and said, "We should be able to deceive them for a while. As soon as they get close, we will act immediately and rescue them."
Xiao Zhang sighed.
"What time is the transaction?"
"It's two o'clock in the afternoon. There's still time."
When everyone was ready and waiting for the poachers to appear, chaos broke out in the zoo.
Since arriving at the zoo, Tuanzi has shown himself to be more well-behaved and sensible than other cubs, and has become the animal that gives the staff the least worry in the entire park.
Unexpectedly, in this situation, when the staff were busy feeding the other cubs, Tuanzi disappeared.
The zoo was in an uproar, and everyone was looking for Tuanzi.
At this time, a black and white panda cub appeared on the bustling streets of City A.
His round little eyes were moist. He raised his head and sniffed the air, trying hard to identify the direction and move forward.
Walking with a carefree pace, he walked across the zebra crossing when the light was green.
Vehicles on both sides of the road stopped one after another, and the drivers looked at the national treasure slowly passing by in shock.
All the passers-by stood there in amazement.
The usually bustling neighborhood was unusually quiet at this moment. Only the sound of small discussions could be heard, with voices kept low, as if people were afraid of disturbing something.
"Bear... Panda?!"
"Am I dreaming?"
"Is that true? Aren't pandas in conservation areas? Are they no longer endangered? Can we see them without going to the zoo?"
…
In a passing car, several tourists were feeling frustrated.
"I can't get a ticket again... Why are tickets to the panda enclosure so hard to get? I've been here for three days and haven't seen a single panda."
"Although I bought a ticket, the panda house was packed. I finally squeezed in but couldn't see a single panda hair."
"We won't end our trip without seeing any pandas, will we?"
As they were talking, they glanced towards the street and suddenly saw the black and white figure, and their bodies shook instantly.
"panda!"
He shouted, going straight to the street, "Look, it's a panda!"
Everyone immediately turned to look.
A panda cub obeys traffic rules and crosses the road.
"It's really a panda..."
“It really wants to know that it is cute!”
"Be quiet, don't scare it away."
"Could it be that God knew I wanted to see pandas and made me see them on purpose?"
…
In another car, there were international friends.
"Oh my god! Country Z's Pandas are really everywhere! Every household can raise one! It's all real!"
“So~~ cute!”
"Take a picture! Take a picture!"
…
Everyone saw what was happening, and the person standing on the street corner who had some common sense immediately took out his cell phone to call the police.
"Hello? Is this 110? I saw a panda on the street. I wanted to ask you, you can't touch pandas in the zoo, but can you touch pandas on the street? Can you rub their fur? Will I go to jail if I rub their fur?"
"If you don't sit down, I'll get on."
…
The whole neighborhood was quiet.
It wasn't until the arrogant panda cub crossed the sidewalk that everyone finally reacted and hurriedly chased after it.
But after turning a corner, the figure disappeared again.
The neighborhood is in chaos.
In the alley next to it, Tuanzi continued to analyze the smell in the air.
Pandas have a very sensitive sense of smell and can even detect the scent of humans from several kilometers away.
The cub was not very skilled in this area, so it sniffed very carefully. After determining the direction, it walked forward firmly.
Soon, news spread that panda cubs had appeared on the streets of a busy city.
The video accidentally taken by a passerby was uploaded to the Internet.
Everyone was worried.
[It's over. The per capita panda issue in Country Z is truly inexplicable this time.]
Extending along the direction of the dumpling, eight kilometers away, there is an abandoned plantation.
Xiao He and her "panda" finally waited for the poachers to appear.
Just as she had guessed, they did not show up in person. Instead, they hid in a densely wooded mountain and asked Xiao He over the phone to put the panda in a cage and place it in a fixed location.
Xiao He took William over as requested, did not lock the cage door, and then returned to his original place to wait.
After a while, three figures approached quickly.
Xiao He observed through the telescope while checking the list in his hand.
This list is a list of several suspects that Brother Jian had previously tested using her method.
After repeated comparisons, although the three people were wearing masks that covered their facial features, their identities could still be identified.
"These are the three."
Xiao He pointed at the person in the photo.
Jin Cheng immediately called two policemen and said, "Investigate the identities of these three people immediately!"
At the same time, through the telescope, the three people and Zhong Zichuan had already come to the cage and were observing from a distance.
The "panda" in the cage was lying there all the time, moving occasionally, as if it was sleeping, so real.
The three of them took a quick glance.
"Holy crap! How did you get so fat? Can you even carry this on the boat?"
"We have to move even if we can't. Don't you want the money?"
As they talked, they walked over quickly.
Zhong Zichuan had injuries on his face and his hands were tied behind his back. He was carefully looking at the things in the cage.
Although it looks very similar, it doesn't seem to be a panda...
Just as I was thinking about it, the three men were already approaching the cage.
"Fuck, he looks even fatter up close!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the "panda" in the cage suddenly looked up, revealing a dog-like face.
The three poachers were stunned for a moment.
Before they could react, the "panda" broke through the half-open cage and rushed out, knocking one of the men to the ground and biting his arm tightly.
At the same time, the panda suit on his body fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Jin Cheng was very panicked.
"Found it! They found it! Where's Xiao He?"
"I rushed over long ago!"
Xiao Zhang responded and pointed towards the hillside.
Jin Cheng looked in the direction he was looking and saw a shadow moving incredibly fast through the woods.
Her speed was so incredible, and with the trees obscuring her view, her silhouette was almost invisible to the naked eye.
In just a blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of the group of people.
William was fighting one against three at this time. He was like a one-man-stand guarding the pass against ten thousand men. He lowered his body slightly, and the low growl from his throat rumbled. His sharp fangs and fierce momentum directly shocked the three people in front of him.
Xiao He appeared and pinned one of them to the ground.
It was only at this point that the other two finally reacted and quickly drew their guns.
Gunshots rang out one after another.
People from all directions are rushing here.
Seeing this, Zhong Zichuan bent down and used a stone to grind the rope on his hand.
At this moment, a clear cry sounded like a clear spring after the rain.
Ying.
Sob.
Everyone stopped moving instantly and turned to look in the direction of the sound.
A black and white panda cub was standing on a rock not far away, calling out to Zhong Zichuan excitedly. When it noticed that he was looking at it, it immediately jumped off the rock excitedly and jumped towards this side.
"panda!"
"Grab it!"
The remaining two poachers immediately turned around and ran towards Tuanzi.
But there was a figure running faster!
Zhong Zichuan's hands were still tied at this time, but the moment he heard the sound, he immediately stood up and ran over there, and was the first to rush to Tuanzi.
The poacher following closely behind saw this, his eyes turned fierce, and he quickly pulled the trigger.
Bang--
A gunshot rang out.
Zhong Zichuan fell to the ground with a bang, pinning the panda under him.
The joy in Tuanzi's eyes slowly faded away. His dark eyes looked at the person in front of him. He seemed to realize something and began to struggle with his hands and feet.
After pushing for a long time, the other party did not respond.
It was obviously panicked, and a sad humming sound came from its nose, which then slowly turned into a howl.
The panda cub's tender cry is clear and sad, and it can be heard from far away, echoing deep into the valley.
The searching mother panda seemed to have sensed something and suddenly stood up and let out a startling roar.
The sharp cry of an adult panda instantly rang out.
Two seconds later.
rumble.
Rumble.
Jin Cheng looked down and saw the gravel at his feet began to shake.
"Is there an earthquake?"
The vibration of the gravel gradually increased, as if the entire valley began to shake, scaring everyone into stopping what they were doing.
The vibration was getting closer and stronger, approaching with the force of a tidal wave, and even the air was rumbling.
If you listen carefully, you will find that amidst the deafening sound, there are bursts of angry roars.
This voice is extremely familiar.
Xiao He pinned down one of the poachers and turned to look into the valley.
"Wild boar, here we come."
At the end of the woods, a striking black and white figure appeared running wildly.
It looks exactly like a dumpling, but is several times larger.
The endless brown area around it is the cause of this earthquake.
wild boar.
Wild boars were everywhere in the mountains, galloping towards us with their sharp fangs.
