Chapter 164 Frog Team Attacks
Xu Ying jumped up, put on her clothes and headed towards the old cowshed, not forgetting to bring her sports camera.
Last week, a sports camera brand sent her a new product for her to review. The main selling point was its ultra-clear night shots.
[Wait, there are people watching around the room!]
[The man kept looking towards the old house and squatted in the bushes opposite the house and refused to move.]
A steamed bun frog jumped in from outside the house.
[That person must have come to monitor Stationmaster Xu. He might be in cahoots with the person who sneaked into the bullpen.]
[What should we do? Now that Station Master Xu is out, that guy will definitely call his accomplices.]
"It's okay if I don't go out. Someone has to take my action camera and go to the old cowshed to record the whereabouts of that sneaky guy."
Xu Ying looked at the palm-sized body of the Mantou Frog. Although the weight and size of the sports camera in his hand were mini, it weighed less than 30g.
But the mantou frog is lighter, weighing 15g, which is equivalent to the weight of two one-yuan coins, and cannot carry a sports camera at all.
If they are carried together, their short and weak hind legs will make them run very slowly.
By the time the Frog Team arrives, the other side might have already done their evil deeds.
Now they can deliver messages to Xu Ying in a timely manner, all thanks to the frogs scattered throughout the village using their croaking sounds to transmit information.
"Now we need the help of the little animals to hang this sports camera and record the scene of that person doing bad things. But you are weak and run slowly..."
As Xu Ying was talking, a ball of fur rubbed against her feet. It turned out to be a desert cottontail rabbit resting in its nest. It had come to her feet at some point: "Go, ask the rabbit for help."
[There is a rabbit hutch in the backyard of the old house.]
The Mantou Frogs saw the sick rabbit and murmured to Xu Ying, "What is it saying?"
Xu Ying quickly translated for the Mantou Frogs: [It said it can ask the rabbit for help. Can you go to the rabbit hive behind the old house to ask for reinforcements?]
The Mantou Frogs croaked in unison: "Sure, we have relatives living behind the old house. Just give them a shout."
Xu Ying came to the window near the backyard of the old house with a steamed bun frog in his hand, and the steamed bun frog croaked a few times.
There was an immediate quacking response.
After a while, two adult desert cottontail rabbits darted into the old house.
[Are you looking for us?]
They were sleeping in their nest when two bun-shaped frogs suddenly raided the rabbit nest, waking them up like an alarm clock, and then kept pointing in the direction of the old house.
The rabbit was quick to react. Although a little angry, it still came to the old house.
Because there was a lot of noise in the old house tonight, there was a strange human being moving around in the house.
The two rabbits were surprised to see their sick companion curled up at Xu Ying's feet. "Another sick rabbit! It feels like it will be our turn soon."
"No! I'm trying!"
Xu Ying told the two rabbits about his plan, and the two rabbits quickly agreed to carry sports cameras on their backs to help Xu Ying see what the bad guys were doing.
This human can treat her companion so carefully and attentively, she must be a good person!
One of the rabbits had a sports camera fixed around its neck, and the other was escorting it. They quickly ran out the door.
The old cowshed is about three hundred meters away from the old house, and the desert cottontail rabbit's burst speed can reach twelve meters per second, which is equivalent to the pursuit speed of a hound. It can last for fifteen seconds. It takes a minute of walking and stopping to reach the old cowshed.
Xu Ying waited anxiously in the old house, and asked the mantou frogs to help keep an eye on the person who was monitoring the old house.
She felt that she couldn't just sit there and wait for death. The person she was monitoring might have a phone call with his accomplices. Thinking of this, Xu Ying's eyes suddenly lit up.
The last time the military sent her equipment, there was also a bug smaller than an earring.
This is the weight that the mantou frogs can bear.
"Team Frog, do me a favor, who among you can jump the fastest?"
Xu Ying took out a black miniature eavesdropping device from the toolbox and connected it to the phone: "As long as you tie this eavesdropping device on your back, I can hear what the person who is monitoring me is saying."
The frogs quickly elected the largest and strongest one.
It lay obediently on Xu Ying's knees, its cheeks puffed up, allowing Xu Ying to fix the eavesdropping device on it.
"Okay!" As soon as Xu Ying finished speaking, the "big bun" jumped out from the windowsill like a warrior, looking heroic and confident.
When the mantou frogs learned that the thing, which was about the same size as their food, was a "bug" that could hear what humans were saying in the distance, they all widened their eyes in surprise.
[Wow, humans are so amazing!]
Why are we not as smart as humans despite our small brains?
"You are also very smart. Many of human inventions are inspired by you little animals."
The coward Liu Kai was afraid of this kind of old house, so he set up a tent in the community compound.
As Xu Ying chatted with the frogs, she felt less scared staying alone in this eerie old house. "We humans even imitated frogs' shadows and held a breaststroke competition..."
[But, we, the Mantou Frog, can’t swim!]
This sentence made Xu Ying choke for a moment. She thought for a moment and then coaxed, "But you can eat termites. Termites are very harmful to humans. You are the savior of mankind!"
The phrase "savior of mankind" confused the mantou frogs, and they became more serious about passing information to their companions.
The quacking sounds around the old house came one after another.
However, there are already many frogs in the village, so this phenomenon did not attract the attention of the observers.
The mantou frogs lined up on the windowsill like little figurines, listening to the information from their companions.
[Webmaster, Big Mantou has successfully lurked next to the observer!]
[Stationmaster, the person under surveillance is on the phone!]
[Then everyone please keep quiet and don't disturb the webmaster!]
The croaking frog team gradually quieted down.
The person squatting near the old house and monitoring Xu Ying was none other than Zhang Lei, a crony of the village chief's nephew Miao Zhong.
Zhang Lei found that as soon as he answered the phone, the croaking of frogs around him suddenly disappeared. He was a little scared and quickly looked around. When he found that there was no one there, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The village chief's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Zhang Lei, why aren't you talking?"
"It's a bit scary squatting here alone in the middle of the night."
"How can you make money with your broken courage?"
"Miao Zhong went to the old cowshed to apply medicine and was bitten by a rabbit! He was also kicked by a cow's hoof! Hurry up and take him to the village doctor on your motorcycle!"
"If you meet someone, tell them that Miao Zhong was helping the villagers move fertilizer overnight and got bit by something while walking at night. Got it?"
