Chapter 19
[Wow, so cute. It looks so polite.]
【Shake hands, shake hands with it! 】
[I would like to call the golden monkey the aristocrat among monkeys. ]
…
There are a lot of staff here, and you can basically see one every two or three steps.
Golden monkeys will lose their temper and hurt people when they are bullied, but generally speaking they are very docile, so they need comprehensive protection from staff.
Wen Youning held another apple in her hand. Many golden monkeys walked slowly towards her, looking at her curiously.
Some of the little monkeys still had some unswallowed fruit flesh in their mouths. They were so focused on looking at the warm pomelo lemon that they forgot to chew it.
Curiosity is one thing, but another reason is that Wen Youning carries the scent of a black bear.
People may not be sensitive to these things, but small animals are very afraid of them.
Under the intimidation of her aura, Wen Youning looked like a ferocious beast, but upon closer inspection, she had a gentleness that made the golden monkey want to get close to her.
The strange aura that was pulled back and forth like this made many golden monkeys confused.
I can't figure it out.
"Come here." Wen Youning held the apple in her palm and weighed it. "You're welcome. I bought a lot. Everyone has one."
As soon as she finished speaking, her hand was empty, the apple was taken away, and the golden monkey's paw, which was one step behind, slapped her palm.
"Hmm," the golden monkey made a low nasal sound.
Wen Youning gathered her five fingers together to hold its paw, and lightly tapped the back of its furry paw with her fingertips. Then she handed it an apple in exchange for it, "Did you see any strange people in there at night? Did you pick up any eggs? They might have fallen from that person. They are like this, with a pointy end and a round end."
Worried that the golden monkey had never seen what an egg was, Wen Youning went out of her way to describe it, using gestures with his hands, in an effort to make the monkey understand.
The golden monkeys looked at each other and shook their heads.
"No."
"There were strange people. They were chased away."
'Nothing was dropped.'
Hearing the golden monkey's ups and downs in response, Wen Youning sighed softly. It seemed that no goose eggs were dropped.
Then it's still on that thief.
But it doesn’t matter. Knowing that the other party has been to Monkey Mountain is some progress.
While Wen Youning was talking and chatting, he did not forget to share the apples in his hand.
These apples are big and red, and look like the kind with thin skin, thick flesh and lots of juice.
After all, it is sold to tourists to feed golden monkeys. The fruit fed to the national first-class protected animals must naturally be more delicate.
When golden monkeys take apples, they use both paws together.
The golden monkey that got the apple did not leave, but the golden monkey behind it that came over out of curiosity to get the apple was still moving forward.
Chen Feng stood by and watched as more and more golden monkeys gathered around Wen Youning, and even began to spread to the surrounding areas.
“…”
No wonder Wen Youning bought so many apples.
The golden monkey looks so small that you have to wait in line for a long time but when it’s your turn, it’s gone. It looks at you pitifully with empty hands, and you feel guilty all over.
Those who don’t give golden monkeys apples to eat are committing a heinous crime!
Other golden monkeys have it, so those who don’t have it are unforgivable!
The movement over there by Wen Youning also attracted the attention of nearby tourists, and many of them looked over here.
The tourist handed the food forward, but his eyes were on Wen Youning.
"Aren't these all the same apples?" One of the tourists who bought the same fruit as Wen Youning rubbed the apple in his hand suspiciously.
No matter how you look at it, it's the same thing.
Why are there so many golden monkeys at other people's place, but there is almost no one at his place?
The only golden monkey standing in front of the platform where he was was squeezed here because there was no room in the queue.
The tourist scratched his head, not believing in evil, and poked the monkey with his hand when it wasn't paying attention, "Hey, eat——"
Before he uttered the word "apple", the golden monkey blinked its big eyes at him, turned around, jumped off the platform, and squeezed forward to find another place.
Tourist: “…”
Is this correct?
Is mine a poisonous apple? Will you run away after taking one look at it?
The golden monkey that ran away from the tourists stepped on the platform, moving back and forth... and squatted.
——Not squatting steadily! The monkey lost its balance and fell to the side, screaming in surprise, and turned around as it stretched out its claws to grab the table.
Wen Youning bent down and stopped the golden monkey that was about to fall to the ground. She stood up and held it in one hand to weigh it. "Be careful with your steps."
Although the platform is not high, it still hurts if you fall.
Not all the golden monkeys here are adults, and there are many that appear to be significantly smaller in size.
I didn't see any golden monkey babies, but I guess there must be a place where they are taken care of separately.
The little golden monkey lay in Wen Youning's arms, humming softly.
The call of the golden monkey is very childish, but not sharp, mixed with a tiny nasal sound as if it is afraid of almost falling, and it keeps acting coquettish and aggrieved.
Wen Youning didn't rush to put it back when she saw this. She held Dian Dian in her arms and stroked its fur, "It's okay, it's okay. Don't be afraid."
The little golden monkey hummed, the ending sound was elongated and soft, and buried its head in Wen Youning's arms without looking up.
So, Wen Youning held the golden monkey in one hand and handed apples to the golden monkeys in line with the other hand.
However, seeing that its companion was hanging on Wen Youning, the golden monkey nearby became restless.
First, it grabbed the hem of Wen Youning's clothes with its claws. The hanging claws carried some strength. Wen Youning noticed it, and when she looked down, she saw a golden monkey at its waist trying hard to climb up.
Wen Youning took a look at the size of the little golden monkey, then picked it up and put it on his shoulder, "Okay, just squat here."
It also provides a good location for the golden monkeys to have a wide view.
From then on, things got out of control.
[Hey guys, where is my sister Wen? ]
[Buried by golden monkeys.]
[Trivia: If you stand still for a long time in Monkey Mountain, golden monkeys will grow on your body.]
[Help! Being surrounded by so many golden monkeys, I almost fainted from happiness just thinking about it.]
[They look very clean, their golden fur looks very smooth, and their white fur looks like it has been bleached, so beautiful! ]
…
"Okay, okay, you can also eat apples if you stand below." Wen Youning really couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the golden monkeys.
She took off the little golden monkey covering her face and said, "You can't lie here. I'll find you another place."
The little golden monkey curled up and was placed by Wen Youning next to the mobile phone that was broadcasting live.
If you get close and listen carefully, you can hear the golden monkeys' chattering.
'Hello, man.'
'Thank you for the apple.'
"I like it. I like it."
'Hold.'
'Stick it.'
…
The first golden monkey who got the apple had not even eaten half of it when he found that there was no place for him on the human.
It gave up the apple in a hurry and looked around.
"Woo."
'I can do it myself.'
Wen Youning: “Hmm?”
What can I do?
Glancing at the golden monkey approaching, she raised her eyebrows and looked at the golden monkey hanging on the hem of her clothes. Hmm... I can find a place for myself, right?
All right.
Wen Youning laughed and freed his hand to touch the independent and strong little golden monkey.
great.
Because people are so tall and there are so many golden monkeys, Wen Youning's body is covered with golden monkeys, and there is even one on his head.
It's like wearing a golden plush hat.
The only downside is that it's too hot.
The golden monkey's fur is very warm.
The noise here also alarmed the staff.
After all, all the monkeys from the Monkey Mountain have come here, and the empty Monkey Mountain without any gold color is too conspicuous.
When the staff member came over, she was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand why these golden monkeys ran out. When she reached out to catch them, Wen Youning happened to hear footsteps behind her and turned around.
Under the cover of the golden monkey, Wen Youning barely revealed her face: "Hello?"
The staff member silently lowered his raised hand, looking at the situation in front of him, not knowing what to say, and replied dryly: "...Hello."
The tourists nearby were holding fruits in their arms, and they were so jealous that they saw the staff coming and asked, "Can I hold the golden monkey in my arms?"
"Sure," the staff member said, "as long as the golden monkey agrees."
The tourist thought about it and realized that this rule didn't seem to be written on the sign. "What does it take for the golden monkey to agree?"
You can't just open your mouth and ask the golden monkey, "Can I hug you?" That's impossible.
The staff shrugged: "If you disagree, I'll scratch you."
Tourist: “…”
This is written on the sign.
The park department claims that the close contact with golden monkeys and the scratches and bites were personal reasons, and the park will not provide compensation.
"Do you need me to help you pick the golden monkey?" The staff member said stutteringly and pursed his lips. Why did this sound so strange?
Wen Youning thought for a moment and said, "I'll pick it myself later."
Before she got heat stroke.
But the good thing is that after the midday when the sun is the strongest and the temperature is the highest, the temperature is obviously dropping and it will not reach the level of heatstroke for a while.
In theory, staff will not interfere with visitors' decisions - as long as the decision does not violate park regulations.
Chen Feng also responded beside him: "Yes, I will help her pick it later."
Staff: “???”
"Is there another person here?"
Chen Feng: “…”
That's what I said.
The staff member returned to her post, which was only a few steps away. Moreover, the monkeys were all gathered in one place, which made it convenient for her to observe them without having to listen to all directions and look around. This was purely to reduce the workload.
Chen Feng saw that Wen Youning had a golden monkey hanging on her arm, and it was difficult for her to raise her hand to give him an apple. "Let me help you divide it."
There are so many golden monkeys. If I feed them one by one, I would have to use both hands to feed two at a time at most. That is too inefficient.
"Okay." Wen Youning tilted the mouth of the apple bag towards Chen Feng.
Chen Feng picked up one of the ones above and handed it to the empty-handed golden monkey, "Here."
The golden monkey just glanced at the apple in front of it, then looked up along his arm and looked quietly at Chen Feng's face.
Chen Feng raised the corners of his mouth and smiled very properly, showing his teeth, trying to make himself look gentle and approachable.
But the golden monkey staggered back two steps after seeing this.
If the way back had not been blocked by other golden monkeys, Chen Feng had no doubt that this golden monkey would turn around and run after retreating to a certain distance.
"Thank you, thank you."
'I don't like apples.'
The golden monkey's weak voice sounded, and even its voice was filled with caution. It gently pushed Chen Feng's wrist until his hand was pushed away, then it silently lowered its head, put its paw in its pocket and continued to queue.
Chen Feng: “…”
He couldn't hear what was in the monkey's heart, but he could read something from the monkey's little movements, which clearly meant it was being rejected.
Chen Feng couldn't hear it, but he was eager to learn. "Teacher Wen, what is this golden monkey thinking?"
"Hmm?" Wen Youning turned her head and rubbed the shy little golden monkey. "Don't like apples? This apple is delicious and fresh."
It was the little golden monkey's turn, so Wen Youning gave it the apple and said, "If you don't like it, just play with it. Everyone has one, so you should have one too."
"Hmm," the little golden monkey held the apple obediently and took a bite, looking at Wen Youning with his big watery eyes.
'tasty. '
Wen Youning couldn't help but smile as she looked at the cute little monkey. "Is it delicious? It's very sweet, right?"
"Woo!" The little golden monkey nodded heavily, and the fluffy and soft hair on its head trembled along with it.
'Very sweet!'
Wen Youning was concentrating on feeding the baby, but she suddenly felt a strong presence behind her, which was hard to ignore.
She turned her head and saw Chen Feng's expressionless face. Seeing that he was in a bad mood, she thought it might be what he asked her to translate just now, so she continued to translate and said, "It said that apples are sweet."
"I know." Chen Feng raised his hand to cover his face, feeling his heart pounding. The next moment he was about to lie down on the spot. "No need to translate anymore. I'm not curious anymore."
Wen Youning: "???"
Um?
【Hahahaha, Chen Feng directly broke through the defense.】
[The apple given by Chen Feng, the little golden monkey: Thank you, I don’t like it, I declined. The apple given by Sister Wen, the little golden monkey: Delicious, very sweet.]
[Without comparison, there is no harm. Once you compare, it will be fatal.]
…
Chen Feng angrily took a bite of the apple. It was crisp and refreshing, a little cool but not icy, and delicious.
If the golden monkey doesn’t eat it, I’ll eat it myself!
Anyway, humans are always described as upright apes on the Internet, and apes are monkeys. I feed myself!
snort.
Quack, it’s delicious.
Chen Feng ate the apple with some force. After a pause in the "crunch, crunch" sound, he took a breath and said, "hiss——"
Cough, cough, bit my tongue.
The tourists were watching from the side and thought there was something different about the apples Wen Youning fed them. They were planning to buy a few from her. But when they saw that Chen Feng's apples were rejected, they gave up the idea.
Many people were no longer looking at Monkey Mountain, but were holding up their phones to take pictures of Wen Youning.
You can take photos at Monkey Mountain at any time. The golden monkeys will actively climb onto a person and find a place to stay. This kind of scene is not something you can see whenever you want.
I can't even act it out.
After all, animals are not like humans. They will not do anything that they don't like or don't want to do.
As for the training... training a national first-class protected animal is simply risking one's life.
[The old saying is true: capable people are always at the center of attention wherever they go. 】
[Hahaha, all the golden monkeys in Monkey Mountain are here. If you want to focus on the golden monkeys, you have to watch Sister Wen.]
[It just looks spectacular. It's quite heavy to carry so many golden monkeys. Sister Wen, I'm on my way to the zoo now. I'll help you share a few. Even just one will do!]
[If you want to grab the little golden monkey, just tell me, and help me grab one too. ]
…
Wen Youning bought too many apples. Seeing that every golden monkey had an apple, she asked one more question to be on the safe side, "Does everyone have apples?"
“Woo!”
"Hmm."
Listen to the response.
Wen Youning counted the remaining apples and said, "No apples are talking."
Some golden monkeys responded by taking up the apples in their arms to show Wen Youning.
"It's good to have them all." Wen Youning also took an apple to eat, and there were still water droplets on the apple underneath.
The stall owner washes them clean, and the sign says they are washed with natural spring water.
I don’t know if it’s real spring water, but the apples taste really good.
Qian Nuo ran all the way from the direction of the Bird Park and saw Chen Feng first, "Brother Chen, where is Teacher Wen? Why are you alone here... Hey, what's this?"
When I got closer, I saw the golden monkey next to Chen Feng.
Seeing a golden and furry area from a distance, Qian Nuo thought it was some new activity held by Monkey Mountain.
"Hi." Wen Youning pushed aside the golden monkey's fur that blocked her view, "How about goose eggs?"
"It has been put into the incubator. There is no major problem with the eggs and their development is relatively stable. But what will happen next is still unknown. We will observe them in the incubator for a few days. If they are stable, we will consider putting them back into the nest."
There are only a few tests that can be done on goose eggs, and there is no test method that can definitively say whether the egg will hatch or not.
Therefore, the details will depend on subsequent developments.
"Yeah." This result was within Wen Youning's expectations. She took off some of the golden monkey on her body and said, "It's going to fall off. Come stand over here for a while."
The golden monkey behind was so scared that it didn't even have a place to grab the hem of his clothes.
Qian Nuo stretched out his hand to help catch it, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, the little golden monkey seemed to have noticed and tried to lie in Wen Youning's arms, burying its whole head in it, trying to hide from her.
She rubbed her fingertips helplessly, and Wen Youning put an apple in her hand.
After they were given out, the remaining number was just enough for the black bears, one for each bear.
"The golden monkey is so close to you." It was the first time that Qian Nuo saw a golden monkey being so clingy.
No... to be precise, it was the first time she saw the animals in their zoo being so attached to the same person!
Wen Youning said: "They are a group of very well behaved little guys."
"By the way, what about the thief?"
Wen Youning shook her head regretfully, "They said they saw it and chased it away, but no eggs fell."
Qian Nuo sighed, "The golden monkey is still too obedient and honest."
If it were those guys in Mount Emei, not only would they have to strip off the thief's clothes, not only would they have to put his eggs in his pockets.
Wen Youning touched the head of the little monkey in her arms. The little guy tilted his head back and blinked his eyes. He was indeed very well behaved.
She said: "Let's go back and check the surveillance again along the route we took today to see if we can take a photo of his face."
"I've asked a few colleagues to help me check the surveillance footage. I'm sure I can find that damn thief!" Qian Nuo opened his five fingers and slowly closed them together, his knuckles making a 'click' sound. "I'm going to strangle him to death when I find him."
Qian Nuo asked: "Now that the news has been cut off, shall we go back directly?"
Wen Youning glanced at the time and asked, "Where is next door?"
"On the left is the crocodile pool, and on the right is Bear Ridge." Qian Nuo pointed in the direction they came from. "Not many people come to see the crocodiles, and the venue is not on the main road. There is a special path leading to it. There are no animals further back in this area. There is a dead end at the back, with high walls, and nothing around except surveillance cameras."
"Then let's go over and take a look." Wen Youning thought, since both the golden monkey and the black bear saw the thief, it means that the thief was active in this area, and the surveillance camera at the dead end at the back did not capture anyone, which means that the only exit is on the crocodile's side.
There's no harm in asking one more question.
Qian Nuo now follows Wen Youning's ideas. She does whatever Wen Youning says and does whatever she is asked to do.
As she spoke, Wen Youning had already picked off most of the golden monkeys on her body. As for the one behind her, she reached behind her and patted the little fellow on the back, "Be good, come down."
Although the little golden monkey wanted to stick to her, after Wen Youning asked it to, it obediently climbed down and stood on the platform.
Finally, the only one left was the one in my arms.
"Little guy?" Wen Youning lowered her head. The little golden monkey in her arms was still hiding inside. "What's wrong? Don't you want me to leave?"
[Please, Sister Wen, be decisive, cover yourself with clothes and run away. ]
[Can you run away? If you do, the police will knock on your door.]
【Zoo Director: It’s over. 】
[Wow, I really don’t want to let go. If the golden monkey hugged me like this, I really wouldn’t have the heart to take it off. I allow you to hug me for the rest of my life.]
…
Wen Youning had no choice but to stroke her fur while coaxing her softly, "Next time when I'm free..."
She paused, feeling like she had said this countless times.
[What a scumbag, what a scumbag, how many fluffy people have you said this to? ]
[It's always next time when I'm free. If you don't come next time, I'll definitely hang you up! ]
Wen Youning coughed twice and said, "I will definitely come. Maybe I will be the doctor who does your routine physical examination next time."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng also agreed: "That's for sure."
He couldn't wait to write a report and called the director to tell him about what happened. He was afraid that Wen Youning would be poached by another zoo when the director came back from his business trip.
Chen Feng has watched it all. The live broadcast room was very popular. Who knows if other zoo staff members have seen it. When it comes to recruiting, the key is to strike first.
Qian Nuo was stunned for a moment, but quickly caught up with his thoughts, "Sister Wen is coming to work with us? Then I can be a colleague of Sister Wen! Hehe, that's great."
"No hurry." Wen Youning coaxed the little golden monkey in her arms, "It's time for you to go home, and it's time for me to go home too."
The little golden monkey put its paw on her shoulder and lay there quietly, refusing to get down.
The keeper came out with food and blew a whistle, "Beep--"
He called out, "It's time to eat!"
The golden monkeys that would gather around when they heard the sound in the past now stood motionless on the platform.
——It cannot be said that they did not move at all. After all, some of the little golden monkeys were about to be squeezed off the stage and could only try their best to shrink themselves inward.
Keeper: “???”
Not active in eating?
Generally speaking, golden monkeys will not eat much food when interacting with tourists. Some shy golden monkeys will not even come forward and rely entirely on the meals arranged by the zoo.
But today...what's going on?
The keeper came over confused. The golden monkeys sat in a row, leaving him with only their furry golden little heads.
Looks pretty cute.
For some reason I felt like a golden monkey going to kindergarten, looking at the blackboard and listening attentively.
"Why are you ignoring me?" The breeder came out carrying a large frame, feeling neglected.
"Xiaozhi, why did you run into the arms of a tourist?" The keeper came over with his hands on his hips. "Come here, I got a lot of your favorite bananas."
The little golden monkey didn't move at all.
'Xiaozhi is a little monkey.'
'I am slow.'
…
"You must have seen it wrong. This is slowly." Wen Youning tapped the little guy's back, "Come on, go eat a banana."
She thought the bananas on the stall were not very good, so she chose apples.
It’s not that I intentionally put bad things out there, it’s simply because bananas are so difficult to preserve. If they are not ripe, they taste astringent. But if you buy them and leave them aside for a while, they seem to be ripe in an instant.
Even a zoo cannot precisely control the ripeness of bananas.
The keeper said "Huh?" and then saw the little golden monkey reaching out to him, obviously wanting a banana.
I was used to feeding the monkey and forgot that I wanted to use bananas to attract the little golden monkey away from tourists, so I subconsciously handed the banana over.
The little golden monkey took the banana and began to peel it carefully. His movements were slow and methodical, not at all impatient. He only peeled the top part and then handed it to Wen Youning's mouth, "Woo!"
'Delicious!'
'I gradually started to like eating it.'
'All for you to eat.'
The breeder raised his eyebrows slowly and said, I've been feeding you for so long...have you lost your feelings?
Wen Youning took a bite and used some strength to break it off from the bottom. "Okay, one bite is enough for me. You can save the rest for yourself."
The little golden monkey curved his eyes and took a bite slowly, "Woo..."
'tasty. '
"Okay, baby, go back." Wen Youning coaxed the little golden monkey, and the monkey was very cooperative when she picked it up.
A bunch of golden monkeys huddled together are quite eye-catching, because, as their name suggests, they raise their hands and wave their claws very slowly.
At least it is half a beat slower than other golden monkeys.
Wen Youning moved her arms, and the weight hanging on her body disappeared. For a moment, she felt a little uncomfortable.
If we ignore the fact that the golden monkey is a protected species, it is actually quite suitable as a pet.
——The golden monkey that had been hanging on her body for so long, after it went down, there was not a single monkey hair on its body!
Animals that don't shed hair are simply divine.
Seeing this, Chen Feng ate the core of the apple in his hand and said, "You guys go to the crocodile pool. I won't join in the fun. I have a meeting soon."
"Meeting? Are you so busy? Is it your internal meeting in Xiongling?" Qian Nuo did not receive any notice of the meeting.
Chen Feng nodded and said yes.
We held a meeting to discuss how to repair the door that was broken by the black bear's paw.
The main reason is that I want to change it. After all, before this incident happened, everyone thought this door was quite safe, and it was common to chat in the corridor through a door occasionally.
It turned out that it was not that the door was safe, but that the bears in Bear Ridge had no intention of attacking them at all.
Otherwise, we would have been wiped out long ago.
Wen Youning handed the remaining apples and the bag to Chen Feng, "Take these apples back with you, and help me distribute them to the bears."
"OK."
"Come on, I'll take you to the crocodile pond. The path is winding and hard to find." Qian Nuo joked with a smile, "Before, the crocodile show scared the children and attracted a lot of complaints."
The complaints about the Crocodile Pool are practically on par with the complaints about Monkey Mountain before the revamp.
Tied for first place in the zoo complaint rankings.
"Later, the director of the zoo moved the crocodile pool to the back to avoid trouble. It is close to the wall to prevent people from jumping over the wall from outside to evade tickets, and it can also prevent tourists who want to see the crocodile show from coming in and being scared."
After all, the road is designed like this, and the tourists who come in to see it must be those who like crocodiles, or they are mentally prepared and come here specifically to watch the crocodile show.
As the director expected, after the location was changed, the number of complaints decreased visibly.
…
Chen Feng walked into the Xiongling District and wiped the doorplate at the entrance with his sleeve.
I originally wanted to go back to the lounge directly and prepare the PPT for the next meeting in advance. Before that, I went to the bear viewing platform to feed apples to the bears.
He didn't dare to get close to the black bear like Wen Youning, so he could only feed it from above.
"Hey! Sun and Moon!" Chen Feng shook the apple in his hand, "Come on, catch it!"
When the black bear looked up, Chen Feng threw the apple at it.
However, Riyue just took a look. The bear, who was woken up from his nap, did not want to eat the dessert after the nap. He licked his mouth, turned over, turned his back to the keeper who was awakening the bear's sweet dream, and continued to sleep.
'dislike. '
'Bears don't eat them.'
Chen Feng: “…”
This was not your expression when Wen Youning threw the fish.
She didn't even give you time to prepare.
I'm reminding you, am I reminding you to turn around and face your back to me?
Chen Feng looked at the other bears again. Well, each of them had their own sleeping posture, and without exception, they didn't even raise their heads.
Targeting me, right?
"This is what Wen Youning asked me to bring for you. You really don't want to eat it?" Chen Feng finally shouted, "If you don't want to eat it, I will eat it."
The black bear's nose moved, and it belatedly smelled a familiar scent.
It sat up suddenly and moved closer to the apple that had fallen on the haystack.
"Woo!" The black bear grabbed the apple and took a bite, then looked up at the human wandering above, "Roar!"
'Put the bear down!'
'They're all bears!'
'Bear loves apples the most!'
"Haha, you realized it?" Chen Feng had something else to do, otherwise he would have to stay and tease it for a while. He poured all the apples in. There was a haystack to hold them together so they wouldn't break. "Eat them yourselves."
Apples are included in every meal of bears and are not a rare food for them.
Leaving the apples for the bears to share, Chen Feng made a phone call and ran to the lounge. "Okay, okay, I know. Um, I'm preparing..."
---
Walking along the path leading to the crocodile pond, the surrounding environment became much quieter.
The crocodile pond is close to water and there is plenty of water in the area. The path is shaded by trees and the environment seems to be much cooler than outside.
"Usually there are more people here only when the crocodile show has not started yet." Qian Nuo was thinking about the performance schedule according to the time, "Now the show seems to be coming to an end."
There is an open schedule for the daily crocodile show, and visitors can arrange their time according to the schedule, visiting which park first and which one later. When you are tired of visiting, it is also very comfortable to sit in the air-conditioned venue and watch the show.
"If that thief really walked through the crocodile pond, he was really lucky. Why didn't the crocodiles bite him to death?" Qian Nuo muttered to himself, gritting his teeth when he mentioned this thief.
“Wa ...
“So cool!”
There were cheers from the field management.
I guess the performance was reaching its climax.
"Can we broadcast live inside?" Wen Youning asked before going in. After all, the crocodile show is charged.
"Of course." Qian Nuo answered neatly, "Our director is still watching your live broadcast. If you don't turn it on, I will have to."
The crocodile show is not a one-time event. After watching it online, people may want to come and experience it offline, which can boost the zoo's revenue.
Besides, because of Wen Youning's live broadcast, their zoo, which has always had sufficient tickets, sold out all tickets in seven days for the first time. This is a huge income, so how could the park care about live broadcasting a performance?
Their principal has a very broad vision.
"By the way, did you call the police after the goose eggs were lost?" Wen Youning was so busy chatting with the little animals to find clues that she forgot the most important thing.
Qian Nuo snapped his fingers and said, "Of course we have to call the police. Those are the eggs of a mute swan. I called the police as soon as I got home."
In fact, we should have called the police as soon as we heard about the egg being lost.
But at that time, an expert came and said that the breeding had failed and there were no eggs. She did not have any surveillance or any effective equipment to prove that the mute swan had laid eggs, but they were stolen.
It just sounds outrageous to say that the other party stole the goose eggs based on the blurry figures in the surveillance video.
The police need to rely on evidence when investigating a case.
There must be a reason to report a case.
She has nothing to do but just opens her mouth and asks the police to investigate the case. Isn't that just dreaming?
The goose egg found later in Xiongling proves the fact that the mute swan was indeed taken away by unknown persons and left in Xiongling after laying the egg.
Only then did I have a reason to report the case.
Qian Nuo protected the eggs and couldn't wait to call the police.
Their director received the news from the police and is now on his way back.
Everyone attached great importance to the lost goose eggs.
"The police should be here soon. My colleague is waiting over there." Qian Nuo waved the intercom in his hand. "If you need to ask me anything, they will contact me then."
Because your colleagues already know a lot of things, just let them answer the basic questions.
Qian Nuo still prefers to look for it with Wen Youning.
[The matter has become serious. Are you watching, egg thief? What you did was not perfect. I advise you to return the goose eggs as soon as possible! ]
[Yes! If all the goose eggs are returned intact, you still have a chance. ]
【Now that the Internet is so developed, you can't escape at all. 】
…
Fans watching the live broadcast were all nervous, especially after learning that the egg that was previously retrieved still had a chance of hatching.
I can't help but worry more about those eggs that have no trace yet.
"Come on, let's go in first." Qian Nuo lowered his voice so as not to disturb other tourists, and led Wen Youning to the second floor. "We have to wait for the breeder on the stage to finish his performance and come down to take us to the pool in the back."
The second floor is not open to the public. It is used only as a place for staff to move things. There are several rooms extending inside where crocodiles are housed, but they do not live there permanently. They are only transported here during performances and put back into the pool after the show.
It’s not that the view is bad. The view is much better than that on the first floor. It’s just that we are afraid that someone will jump down and fight with the crocodile without knowing the danger. There have been similar cases in the zoo before, and the zoo was directly closed for rectification.
The man was fed into his mouth, and the crocodile was unlucky enough to close its jaws, and then everything was gone.
And if someone really wants to jump down, neither the fence nor the concrete wall can stop him.
To avoid this from happening, just don't open it.
The show will start now, and there is no one on the second floor.
Qian Nuo lifted the door curtain and said, "Why don't we just ask a crocodile? There are more crocodiles in the pond. I'm afraid you will be too confused to hear clearly if you go there."
"Yeah." Wen Youning also felt that since the crocodiles stayed in the same pool at night, someone must have seen it together.
When she walked in, the first thing she saw was a huge fish tank that spanned the middle of the room.
The water inside almost covered half of the crocodile.
Hearing the noise, the crocodile's eyes rolled around but its body did not move.
"Hello?" Wen Youning didn't get too close, just stood there, "Doesn't the crocodile pavilion sell food for feeding?" She didn't seem to see any stalls similar to the ones for the golden monkeys as she walked up.
"Yes. I'll go down and buy some and you guys chat first." Qian Nuo forgot about this. He couldn't get information from Crocodile without any effort.
As she spoke, she ran downstairs.
Wen Youning dimmed the light in the fish tank, thought about it, and turned it off.
After the overhead light was turned off, the crocodile closed his eyes, seemed to relax for a moment, and then opened them again.
'Hello……'
Wen Youning raised an eyebrow. This crocodile looked young, but its voice sounded strange. "Hello. I want to ask, have you seen any strange people at night recently? He smells like a bird."
As for the goose eggs... there are so many crocodiles in the crocodile pond that if the goose eggs were dropped here, they would be eaten by the crocodiles before they could come and look for them.
Furthermore, on the Monkey Mountain, there were so many golden monkeys but no goose eggs were seen, which means that the egg thief became very cautious after losing an egg to the black bear and hid the remaining eggs very well.
So Wen Youning didn't ask directly.
But after he finished speaking, he waited for a long time but there was no response from the crocodile.
Wen Youning asked suspiciously, "Are you listening? Or are you thinking?"
'There is... a... one...'
Wen Youning: "???"
I seem to know what's wrong with my heart.
"You speak so slowly in your heart."
The crocodile raised its head, leaned its snout sideways against the glass of the fish tank, and slightly propped up its short front claws. It maintained this movement until the waves stirred up by its stiffness gradually calmed down.
The crocodile's inner voice sounded again: "No, no ...
Wen Youning pinched her eyebrows, feeling a little amused and helpless. Well, now it might be a little faster than before.
Crocodile: 'Yes.'
Wen Youning: "..."
hiss.
At this pace, if I ask all the questions I want to ask, I will probably get all the answers by tomorrow morning.
"Is that the one you're talking about him?" Wen Youning used her phone to pull up a screenshot with a relatively clear facial feature.
The crocodile tilted its head and hit the glass with a 'bang', its eyes fixed on the phone.
Barrage: [? ? ? ]
[Is this reasonable? ]
[Wow! The crocodile looks so cute, take it away quickly. ]
[Ahhh, is this the first-person perspective of the prey being hunted by the crocodile? I feel like it will open its mouth and dazzle me.]
…
Wen Youning only realized when she saw the screaming comments that the camera was a little too close to the crocodile.
"Sorry." She quickly put her phone back. The time she spent turning it was enough for the crocodile to see the picture clearly.
Wen Youning hung up the phone and asked, "How is it? Do you remember anything?"
The crocodile blinked slowly, "Yes..."
The ending of the voice is elongated, dull and a little old.
"Have you seen it?"
"It hurts... a little."
"Huh?"
'Knock, knock... it hurts.'
Wen Youning paused, helplessly holding her forehead, walked to the side of the fish tank, and put her hand in between the crocodile and the glass of the fish tank, "Did it hit here?"
She ran her hand down the crocodile's snout to its mouth, "What about here? I think it's hit there too."
The crocodile's tail tapped the water surface lightly, and its mouth opened slightly, looking like it was in a good mood.
'fine. '
Alligators feel cool to the touch, completely different from the feel of a furry little animal.
Wen Youning rubbed his thumb against the side of its face, "So do you have any impression of that person?"
'Scare, run,'
As they were talking, the curtain behind them was lifted again. Wen Youning thought it was Qian Nuo, and without even raising her head, she asked, "Are you back?"
"You, you, you..." A trembling voice sounded from behind.
Wen Youning turned around and made eye contact with the breeder whose lips were pale.
When the keeper came in, he saw Wen Youning putting her hand into the crocodile tank, and her hand was still touching the crocodile's snout. The crocodile could open its mouth and bite her hand at any time, and then do a death flip on the spot!
He held his breath and finally found his voice, shouting at the top of his lungs:
--"What are you doing?!!"
