Real or fake panda
Sui Sui's sudden escape from prison caught everyone off guard. It was hard to imagine how such a tiny little guy could get here by getting through so many obstacles.
After checking the surveillance footage, people discovered that Suisui did not follow the usual path at all.
Early in the morning, it climbed over the wall and jumped into the garden where Yuanchuan was. With Yuanchuan's guidance, it found a gap that was suitable for it to easily drill out. After that, it had a smooth journey and almost ran to the gate.
If the tourists hadn't happened to be walking along this road, Sui Sui might have really run away.
Tourists who were lucky enough to witness Sui Sui's escape and capture shared the details online:
[Sui Sui is so cute! I don’t know if it’s my imagination, but its fur is much brighter than other red pandas, and its tail is also long and fluffy, which makes it twice as cute!]
[It was much more lively and bold than the other red pandas I saw in the red panda house. It didn’t react when it was caught. Haha. When it ran away, it just rushed into the crowd of tourists. I got rubbed against it. Hehe.]
[Looking at the map, the baby had really run quite far away, hahahaha, but it was a pity that he was finally arrested.]
Putting aside the surge in visitors to the Red Panda Science Exhibition, the base now has another important issue to consider.
That is, whether to release Sui Sui and Nian Nian in advance.
Niannian's wound has healed, but because it is still very young, people think it is better to keep it a little longer and do some wild training first, and then release the two together after making sure there is no problem.
This is obviously a very safe and reliable plan, but Suisui seems unable to wait.
"How about releasing Sui Sui first?"
As soon as this proposal was put forward at the conference table, it was refuted by several people.
"Do you want to make Niannian depressed again?"
"When Sui Sui was sent back, Niannian was waiting anxiously at the wall. They must have reached a consensus to run away together."
“They must be released together.”
After struggling for a while, Yang Wen finally suggested, "Let's test Nian Nian's ability first."
To be fair, Nian Nian's abilities are pretty good, far exceeding those of ordinary giant pandas of the same age.
Perhaps because he encountered an opponent like a jackal when he first started out, the originally somewhat proud Niannian immediately became humble, listened carefully to the instructions of the adult giant pandas around him, and often practiced life-saving skills such as climbing trees. He should be able to survive without worries in the more peaceful areas in the wild.
The news that the base was preparing to release the giant and small pandas was widely opposed online:
[Why release him so soon? His injuries haven't fully healed yet? Has the base run out of money? ? ]
[No, I haven’t seen Sui Sui Nian Nian yet. I’m living comfortably in the base with free food and drink. Why are you sending them away so quickly?]
[They are hungry and might be poached in the wild, so why not take them both in? Their current fame is worth it!]
[Didn’t Yuanchuan always want to run away before? But he found the public food delicious, so he stayed. Two little ones are fine.]
Looking at the direction of public opinion, Yang Wen shook his head.
Sure enough, the public's love for animals is still relatively narrow.
If being loved by humans means being deprived of freedom, then probably no wild animal would be willing to be loved in this way.
He had no intention of trying to change the direction of public opinion, but what happened next gave him an unprecedented idea.
"well."
Suisui lay on Nian Nian's back with a sad face and sighed.
Ever since it ran away that time, the Two-legged creatures have been watching it more closely. Not only did they remove the large trees in the adjacent panda house that were large enough for it to stand on, they also installed slippery things on the wall to make it difficult for it to stand on.
Now it's hard to escape.
It can't escape, so how can I take care of Nian Nian?
Niannian naturally knew about his friend's escape plan. Seeing Suisui's sad face, he also became sad and apologized while crying.
sorry……
It's what's dragging it down.
Gritting my teeth, I endured the pain year after year, with tears in my eyes.
Well, then Suisui, you go first!
It will find an opportunity to run away on its own!
Sui Sui: ...
It angrily bit Nian Nian's round black ear.
“Ouch!”
Niannian screamed in pain and covered her ears pitifully.
Sui Sui pushed its claws away and chanted skillfully into the ear:
Don't talk nonsense.
Let’s go together.
Let’s go home together!
"Uh-huh!"
Although he was scolded again, Niannian was still inexplicably happy. He nodded hurriedly, turned over, and faced Suisui to discuss the next escape plan again.
Seeing this, the narrator, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke:
"When I came to the position where the fake young master once was, the real young master realized how complicated and suffocating the seemingly glamorous appearance was."
"Love, indeed there is."
"But what is more, perhaps overwhelming, is the desire to control people in the name of 'thinking for you'."
"Everyone is an independent individual. If he/she does not even have the freedom to be responsible for himself/herself, what is the difference between him/her and a puppet on a shelf?"
"It turns out that the fake young master had a hard time back then. What made TA envious at that time may have only brought pain to the fake young master."
The sudden turn sprained the audience's waist.
[Hiss, what's wrong with the original work? It added another value system. Is it to express that it's not easy for a fake young master to live a life of someone else's identity? ? ]
[How else can we reconcile? The fake young master must be in trouble, and then we can reconcile.]
[But it’s really like that here! At first, even Niannian’s friendships were interfered with because the people in the reserve cared too much about the national treasure; and now, although Suisui has become famous, his freedom has also been restricted. In the final analysis, it’s because people’s desire to protect is too strong. ]
[Looking at the tourists outside these days, they don't seem to want the two little ones to go home, and want the base to take them in. Hmm... how should I put it, I can understand but I don't support it. I hope the base will not keep the two little ones in captivity for possible benefits...]
[It would be fine if the two kids wanted to be recruited, but Suisui has escaped from prison so many times, it's obvious that he wants to leave. Can the people here be more sensible? ]
But in fact, the base had no intention of keeping the two little ones in captivity; at most they wanted to keep them for a few more days.
The release had already been decided, but the date was put at a later date.
During this period, the base has taken various measures to prevent Sui Sui from escaping because they feel that Sui Sui cannot act recklessly and must be released by professional humans.
But something happened that no one expected.
At first, the giant pandas in the nearby Sui Sui Nian Nian pavilion would stare at the blocked wall from time to time. Then, all the adult giant pandas started a game of stacking toys high.
The tourists were curious, the keepers were puzzled, and the experts were puzzled.
They don't understand what these usually lazy national treasures are trying to do.
Until one day, Sui Sui successfully escaped from prison again.
Everyone was shocked and couldn't understand how the red panda could escape from prison despite such strict security.
They were silent for a moment as they checked the newly installed surveillance cameras along the wall.
Sui Sui did not climb up the slippery wall, nor did a big tree grow out of nowhere near the wall for it to climb. Instead, the giant pandas in the aquarium stood on toys against the wall as a ladder, allowing the red pandas to step on them to cross the wall.
Overcoming walls.
No matter how many animal spiritual scenes they had seen, none of them were as shocking as this one, and they were speechless for a moment.
After a long time, some people started to discuss:
"Building a ladder... is this Yuanchuan's trick? I remember that he tried to climb the wall and escape by stepping on toys before."
"Yes, I remember it was very popular on the Internet at that time."
"How did it convince the other pandas to do the same? Why are they all helping the red panda? Is Sisi joining in the fun too? Doesn't it hate being stepped on the most? Why do all the pandas seem to be helping?"
"Maybe they also support Sui Sui and Nian Nian's escape. After all, it is the road to freedom."
"...Don't do that. Someone will capture Sui Sui and make us look like criminals."
This situation is so delicate.
It seemed that people were holding the giant and small pandas down and refusing to let go, forcing the pandas in the park to help each other escape.
But in fact, they were also considering the survival of the two little ones, and planned to release them after the nature reserve confirmed that there was no danger.
They are obviously protecting them!
There are so many processes, but it’s for their safety, not that they won’t let go!
“…We are not as good as them. We are really not as good as them.”
Yang Wen was in a trance for a long time.
Even he, who had no selfish desire to keep the giant pandas, when faced with the topic of releasing them, judged whether the two cubs were qualified for release based on human values, without considering their true feelings.
Don’t the little animals understand whether they can walk or not?
When Nian Nian was seriously injured, Sui Sui never tried to leave. He stayed by Nian Nian's side every day and brought food to Nian Nian from time to time to supplement his meal.
Until one day, it began to interact with the surrounding giant pandas, began to escape from prison, and began to observe the various exits of the base.
By then, they will probably be ready to return to the mountains.
But they ignore these details and only measure them by the standards summarized by humans, treating them as ignorant animals who do not know the limits, which is too arrogant.
Looking at the giant pandas in the park who had only been with Sui Sui Nian Nian for a month and then gave their all to help her, I felt ashamed of myself.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Yang Wen only said one sentence: "I think it's better to release him early, the sooner the better."
"The sooner the better?! But those public opinions that clamor for us to incorporate the years and years...?"
"After seeing these images, I don't think anyone would think that keeping them in captivity for years is good for them."
As he spoke, Yang Wen suddenly made a strange suggestion.
"Also, I think this release can be done in a different form..."
[Iron door~Iron window~Iron chain~]
[Sui Sui was caught again. Waaaaah, I was really touched when I saw everyone helping to build the ladder earlier, but in the end he was still caught...]
[But even if Sui Sui escapes this time, Nian Nian can't escape either. I'm worried. I'll just have to wait for the base to release him.]
[That's too unreliable. It's best to rely on yourself! Wild animals should have this awareness! ]
[Yes, if even freedom needs to be given by humans, then is it still freedom? Isn’t that also a disguised form of dependence on humans? ]
Suisui was not discouraged.
The barrage was wrong in one aspect. It had no intention of escaping this time, but rather wanted to find a suitable escape route for Nian Nian.
"Boo, boo~"
This time it saw a small door in a corner of the wall!
Although it is closed, it feels that it can be opened every year! It's as simple as Yuanchuan secretly opening the door!
Sui Sui happily gestured on Nian Nian, repeatedly confirming that Nian Nian should be able to get out from that place, and then began to patiently explain the route to Nian Nian.
"Hmm! Hmm!"
Every year the stars watch the passing years, and my heart is filled with admiration.
It thought it could only dig a hole in the corner to escape!
As expected of Sui Sui! Super smart!
The desire for freedom made the two little ones full of energy. They did not feel sleepy even after staying up all night, and just waited for the next perfect opportunity when there were fewer people to implement their escape plan.
"...Hmm?"
As a result, no one was there the next day?
Sui Sui tilted his head in confusion, looking repeatedly at the corridor outside the glass window.
Ever since the group of keepers who delivered feed to various museums left in the morning, no two-legged animals have appeared here.
It was caught just yesterday!
Confused, Sui Sui ran to the fence to ask Yuanchuan. The reliable big brother thought for a moment and said that there would indeed be very few people in the base on certain days.
"Well?" Escape now?
Yuanchuan looked at the distressed little fellow on the other side of the fence and encouraged him gently.
Anyway, you won’t get hurt if you are caught, so just run away as soon as possible if you can.
“Boo…boo!”
Sui Sui hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed seriously. He immediately ran back to the tree, called Nian Nian, and took it to run with him.
Year after year: !!
What do you mean you just studied yesterday and you have an exam today?!
I am in fear and worry every year and have wild thoughts every year.
It almost shook Sui Sui off the wall while he was climbing on its shoulder.
"Bing!"
"Uh-huh……"
Facing the little friend who was caught by Yuanchuan on the opposite side, Niannian laughed guiltily a few times, then quickly pushed out the big stones that had been prepared long ago from the bushes, piled them up in two layers, and then climbed over the wall with a grunt.
It also worked.
After landing, Niannian cheered happily, rubbed against Suisui, took a look, and then rubbed against Yuanchuan bravely.
"……OK."
Yuanchuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly.
On the way to the next wall, the big brother gently talked to the two little guys.
Mainly some inquiries about Lin Ye:
Are there still many jackals there?
A lot! We were bitten by them!
Remember the tricks I taught you and protect Sui Sui well.
Yeah! I've been practicing!
Do you remember what you can’t eat?
I remember it every year, and I’m still working hard!
They chatted about a lot of things and soon walked back to the wall.
This time there is no need for stones. As an adult giant panda, Yuanchuan can lift the two little ones and let them easily climb over the wall.
The years passed without any regrets, but before Sui Sui turned over, he suddenly turned around and asked Yuan Chuan a question in a low voice:
"Ming ming ming?" Are there any birds you raise that I haven't seen before?
Yuanchuan was a little confused, but still answered patiently.
The birds in its garden became familiar with it because they came for free meals. It only remembers a few regulars as they come and go, and cannot remember more than that.
Hearing this answer, the red panda on the wall looked a little confused.
Until the Nian Nian below began to hum and urge it, Sui Sui, who was tugging at the wall, finally whispered:
"Oh oh." Then I won't eat birds anymore.
After thinking for a while, it said, "Hmm!" and didn't want to eat the bird eggs anymore!
This way, if any birds fly here from their mountain, they can tell Yuanchuan about their current situation!
The little guy, proud of his careful consideration, smiled happily, squinted his eyes and said goodbye to Yuanchuan, then turned around and jumped off the wall, and was caught by another giant panda.
Yuanchuan: ...
It also said goodbye to the two little guys, and then leaned against the wall, staring in a daze at the furry figures gradually going away.
Birds can't fly that far.
They could only listen to the gossip of the two-legged animals to entertain them, and then peck at their bread in return, and occasionally nibble at the hair on their buttocks.
At first, Yuanchuan thought that he should raise enough birds so that they could catch him and fly away, back to his hometown in the mountains that he missed day and night.
Later, the little bird got fat, and it also got fat; the little bird could no longer fly, and it also could no longer fly.
They can't go back.
But just now, it seemed to have really released two little birds to fly back home.
Carrying its knowledge and memory, its expectations and visions, it flew away joyfully.
“Ahhh——”
Its abdomen rose and fell slightly, and it maintained this thinking posture for a long time, which made the keeper a little worried. At one point, Yuanchuan suddenly became excited, holding the nearest stone and swinging it, flipping up and down happily, and couldn't help patting the nearest small tree, just like a cat that had inhaled catnip.
"Hiss, should we care about this?"
Behind the scenes, the base staff looked at each other in bewilderment.
“No need…”
"What did Sui Sui say to Yuan Chuan at the end? Why was it so happy?"
"Are you going to take Yuanchuan away after Sui Sui?"
"Yuanchuan hasn't thought about escaping from prison for a long time. He knows that his body is not good enough."
This scene is not unique to Yuanchuan.
Almost every giant panda that sees off the coming year will stop at the wall and look into the distance for a while, then express inexplicable excitement and anticipation.
The degree varies.
Some of them were giant pandas that had been in captivity since birth. They had obviously not received any training for the wild and did not necessarily want to leave, but they still accepted the big and small pandas' escape for freedom without any rejection and supported it with their actions.
Sui Sui and Niannian did not allow anyone to join their jailbreak. They just expressed their gratitude every time they said goodbye and made the previous giant panda roll around happily before leaving.
How can I describe such a delicate and complex emotional interaction...
People thought about it for a long time and came up with one word - respect.
They respect and care for each other.
After a long silence, some people started to speak:
"We may have underestimated the emotions of the pandas."
"Well...but now that I've seen it, I can be more serious about raising it in the future."
"Didn't someone say before that they wanted to separate Huanhuan and Yueyue? If the two sisters have a good relationship, you can still consider it and not just focus on the venue traffic."
"Before, a tourist deliberately called Hongye's name wrong. The video went viral and many people followed suit. You can talk to the security guards and don't make Hongye sad."
"Reconsider keeping Nian Nian in captivity. Maybe she wants to leave after all."
In fact, now that I talk about it, I find that they actually know a lot of details, but they have never taken it to heart.
The starting point is protection, but who can really put themselves in someone else's shoes all the time?
But after the big and small pandas come, a lot should change.
The possible changes in the base in the future have nothing to do with the two little ones who are about to run towards freedom. They are still concentrating on escaping.
Everything went very smoothly.
The pandas helped them climb over the wall, and there were no two-legged animals on the road. The small door that had been chosen before was broken with a push. Suisui and Niannian walked happily on the road, shoulder to shoulder.
Narrator:
"After struggling for a long time in such a complicated environment, the real young master finally decided to escape with the fake young master."
"No matter how much wealth they have, freedom is what they desire most in their hearts."
“Without the halo, their relationship will be less complicated and they will just be close friends without any impurities.”
[Yeah! I finally escaped!]
[Wait a minute, they ran away already? Although I really want the two little ones to go home, they definitely can’t run away if they just run around!!]
[The previous part was not serious enough. Look at this empty base. Look at the wooden boards covering the small doors. The two little ones' escape was definitely allowed by the base. Maybe they were watching the surveillance cameras!]
Narrator:
"After the real and fake young masters expressed their annoyance at the same time, they finally realized their previous mistakes."
"Whether it was the initial differential treatment or the suffocating feeling caused by the subsequent double compensation, it was all a wrong expression of their love."
"After learning from their mistakes, they have no intention of stopping the real and fake young masters from escaping."
"This will be an outing that everyone will recognize and bless."
"May they be free forever."
【Ohhhhh, I agree with this reflection. 】
【Wow, everyone's blessing and approval really touched me. The giant panda helped pave the way, the red panda helped point the way, and the humans turned a deaf ear and quietly opened the back door, just to let the two stray little guys return to the wild. It's amazing.】
[I saw the car, and there were bamboos inside. It seemed that they wanted to get the two little ones to get in the car, and anesthetize them with the mist so that they could sleep and go home.]
"Hmm~"
He immediately saw the familiar bamboo basket on the car at the end of the road. Suisui became excited and started to show it to Niannian.
This is amazing!
Just go in and take a nap and you’ll be where you want to be!
Shocked every year.
Is there such a magical thing?!
The two little ones were not caught along the way, so they became much bolder and walked into the car along the large and small slides that seemed to be tailor-made for them.
"Um."
A familiar voice sounded in the car, and they were startled and looked at each other.
It’s A-Tian’s voice!
Is A Tian here too?
The two excited kids were groping around in the car, totally unaware that the door was slowly closing and a light mist was spreading out.
"Hmm~"
Suisui shook his head.
I’m sleepy…
How come it's so fast! It hasn't even entered the bamboo basket yet!
Sui Sui was so frightened that he stopped exploring and quickly jumped into the bamboo basket, trying to fall asleep in a more comfortable position.
But its consciousness was faster than its actions. It had only half of its body stuck into the bamboo basket when its hind legs relaxed and the whole red panda fell into a deep sleep.
Niannian, who had just been given an extra injection, turned around and looked at his butt in confusion, and fell asleep unknowingly.
Click.
The car door opened, and someone came in and adjusted Sui Sui, whose half body was sticking out of the bamboo basket, and stuffed him into the basket. Then he pushed Nian Nian, who was lying on the ground, into the cage, and then closed the car door.
The driver got in the car.
The engine starts.
Load up two legendary furry vehicles and send them to their homeland just like that.
The two little ones were unconscious and soundly sleeping, with only their two pairs of elastic ears shaking slightly with the vibration of the vehicle.
When they wake up again, they will be in the mountains and forests.
When they wake up again, they will no longer be disturbed by humans.
When they wake up again, they will have a beautiful dream about freedom.
A long time later, Nian Nian became the youngest bear king observed in the reserve so far. Not only did he continue to protect the red panda Sui Sui, he also arrogantly expanded his territory to protect his mother A Tian and her newborn cubs.
Their mortal enemy is jackals. Remembering the experience of being forced to wander away from human society for several months because they were chased and blocked by jackals, they would harass jackals every year whenever they saw them. They were so arrogant that they forced the jackals to change their hunting areas.
The relationship between Suisui and Nian Nian has never changed. It is as long-lasting as their names and as close as family members. Even the other unfamiliar red pandas dare to peek out from the treetops out of curiosity.
until--
Until the red pandas pass away first, the giant pandas will follow the red shadow on the treetops that looks like a childhood playmate and fall off the cliff every winter.
But there is no need to regret it, they have witnessed a lot, had a lot, left a lot, and changed a lot.
Born in the mountains, buried in the mountains.
That's good.
I was planning on writing one more chapter, but I ended up writing it right away () So let’s end it!
The next world is the infinite flow of rabbits~ I don’t know if you will misunderstand. When I first wrote this idea, I said that "human society is bizarre and seems like an infinite flow world in the eyes of the timid rabbits by nature", so it is not really an infinite flow. How can I write an infinite flow in a quick travel (scratching my head)
