Why not hang yourself on the southeast tree

Chapter 41: Crow: Gratitude (6)

The enthusiastic security guard couldn't answer this question.

He quietly nudged Lao Li's lower back with his fist.

[It’s hard for me to answer you. It fell into my trap of its own accord. I didn’t buy it. I’m an old man working odd jobs like moving bricks at a construction site. How could I have the spare money to buy a pet? I can barely support myself…]

The reporter choked. She hadn't expected this either.

【Can you tell us how to fall into the trap? 】

This was said in a funny way, and the audience in the live broadcast room rubbed their hands, waiting to see what would happen.

The foreman behind the door finally couldn't help it, so he pushed aside a few workers who were peeking through the crack in the door, and walked out himself.

If Lao Li were to reveal the fact that he set traps to catch sparrows while starving himself, his reputation as a scoundrel would be tarnished throughout the country.

[Hello, you are a reporter, right? I am the person in charge of this construction site, my last name is Zhang.]

The foreman squeezed out from between the security guard and Lao Li with a smile on his face, and almost shoved his face directly into the reporter's microphone.

The reporter stepped back quickly and stepped on the foot of the cameraman, who was in even more trouble. The live camera shook as well.

A large number of [HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ] popped up on the barrage.

The cameraman deeply regretted that he must not have checked the almanac carefully before going out today. It's not advisable to go out when things are not appropriate, right?

【Ga----】

Old Li staggered to the side. I flapped my wings, flew up, turned around, and landed on the wall where the walnuts were still placed.

I picked up a walnut and flew over the Wrangler driver's head, circling it. He was so scared that he covered his head with his hands and turned around, fearing that I still held a grudge against him, and begged for mercy repeatedly.

I threw the walnut down and continued to circle around him.

He looked at me, then at the walnut that had rolled to his feet, and immediately replayed the extremely popular video of the wheel cracking walnuts in his mind.

A flash of inspiration.

[You want me to help you open the walnuts, right? ]

【Ga----】

He seemed to be greatly encouraged, took out his cell phone from his pocket and smashed it on the walnut.

[Click——]

The walnuts are broken.

The glass on the back of the iPhone is also broken, shattered...

The driver realized it too late and regretted it. I really want to cry...

He picked out the cracked walnut kernels one by one and spread them on the palm of his hand. I was very considerate and pecked at his arm gently.

The reporter saw it and was amazed. At the same time, she realized that the cameraman's camera was still facing her, so she quickly chatted with the foreman to build relations with him.

[Boss, can you send us this surveillance video after the interview? It's paid, so you won't suffer any loss.]

The guard nodded quickly.

When the foreman heard this, his eyes lit up. This interview was worth it as it would both enhance his reputation and bring him benefits. He agreed immediately without any hesitation.

[Eh? The city zoo contacted us and said this crow seems to be the one that got lost in their zoo...]

The reporter's private messages were refreshed again, but the pinned message left everyone present speechless for a moment.

【Ga? ! 】

zoo?

What zoo?!

Just because I'm famous, you want to come pick peaches, right?!

Old Li was also stunned, thinking back to his first meeting with the crow. That poor, miserable and injured little creature didn't look like it had been well taken care of in the zoo.

But he had no evidence to prove it, and he was speechless.

The audience in the live broadcast room also heard it and had mixed reactions.

Some people said they support the crow returning to the zoo, some supported the crow staying outside freely, and some said they should register an account for it to shoot videos and earn money to support itself and its owner.

The majority of viewers supported the third point. After all, under the high-definition camera, Lao Li's fatigue, old age and poverty are obvious at a glance.

Coincidentally, Lao Li’s son was also in the live broadcast room. He silently chose three in the voting column, his eyes warm.

It's not that he is unfilial. Both father and son have been taciturn and have not said much to each other for decades. They have been working hard to survive.

He accidentally poked into this live broadcast room while squatting on the toilet during lunch break, and saw at a glance that the person being interviewed was actually his father.

I was so shocked that I almost dropped my phone into the toilet...

Voting in the live broadcast room cannot influence the zoo's decision.

In less than half an hour, a specialist was sent from the Chengdongtou Zoo.

Taking advantage of the presence of reporters and asking them to be witnesses, the commissioner opened the laptop he brought with him.

There were surveillance videos from different angles, and a room full of crows that looked almost identical, with their noisy caws making endless sounds.

He pointed at one of them and said, "Look, the crow that got lost in our zoo last month looks the same as this one, doesn't it?"

This was a question, but everyone else present could tell that he was very sure.

Old Li looked very carefully and found that they were indeed very similar, so he had no reason to refute.

【Ga? 】

I saw their heads huddled together, so I moved over and stood on Lao Li’s shoulder.

The commissioner's finger did not move, still pointing at the red-billed crow in the video that was sixty meters long and one meter wide in wingspan.

Sure enough! He looks exactly like me!

Even the little tuft of white hair next to the nostrils is the same!

The commissioner looked at me with loving eyes and held out his hand.

I tilted my head.

【Ga? 】

What?

The cameraman zoomed in and aimed the lens at me and the commissioner's hand.

The barrage in the live broadcast room also disappeared, and everyone was waiting to see how I would react.
