Day by day in the infinite game

Chapter 346 346. Horse Thief

In the middle of the night, everything is silent except for the bright moon.

In the quiet forest, the owl that lurks during the day and emerges at night will occasionally emit a short and terrifying hoot.

Outside the forest, a rustling sound suddenly sounded, and it gradually approached.

There is a team heading towards the forest.

"Move quickly, don't delay, it will delay my business, and I will never finish it with you!"

Someone lowered his voice and urged the team to speed up.

After that, he put his hands behind his back and looked at the tall and lush trees in the forest with great satisfaction, his eyes filled with the light of success.

But when I thought about staying up most of the night and having to stay up late with these workers, I felt less happy.

Oh, I feel so sleepy.

He opened his mouth and yawned deeply, and the corners of his eyes were a little wet.

Humph, if it weren't for the rigid and stubborn group of idiots who were watching closely, he wouldn't have been able to sneak around in the middle of the night.

In the past, this time was when he usually slept soundly.

I heard that there were forest rangers patrolling the forest at night, but he didn't care too much. With so many people, there were always one or two who could stand up. If he couldn't beat them, he would run away, leaving the green hills without fear of running out of firewood. burn.

As the old saying goes, don’t be afraid of thieves stealing, just be afraid of thieves missing you.

They can guard against it for a while, but not forever.

There is always a moment of slack for him to take advantage of.

Thinking that if he had a big job tonight, countless wealth would fly into his pocket tomorrow, he narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"Boss, shall we start?"

The lumberjack foreman came to ask for instructions.

He nodded: "Start, you must be fast!"

Not long after the words fell, the sound of logging saws rang out in the forest, echoing harshly under the night sky for a long time...

……

[Today’s Hot Topics: On August 8, a forest fire broke out in eastern America. The fire spread rapidly and thick smoke filled the sky. According to current statistics, nearly a thousand square kilometers of forest are being devoured by fire.It is the hot summer season and the rescue work is making difficult progress. Please see the on-site report below. 】

On the video screen, the fire was bright and continuous, making half of the sky red. There were thick smoke rising, and the sky above the forest was filled with darkness, which made people feel heavy after watching it.

"I'll go, what's going on? Is it easy to plant a tree?"

Players who saw the video couldn't help sighing and taking photos of their thighs.

They are all people who have personally experienced planting and raising trees, and they are most disgusted by such a scene.

As expected, it is easier to destroy forests than to protect them. Such a large forest can easily be swallowed up in the fire.

But everyone also thought it was an accidental wildfire, and after sighing for a while, they should be busy.

But the gradually recovering vitality source noticed something abnormal.

It can feel that this wildfire came a little strangely.

Thinking of Lao Bei, who also went to America to look for people, his heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that this guy couldn't hold himself back and started fighting with those white-eyed wolves?

At this time, the source of vitality, which was becoming increasingly anxious in his heart, did not remember that Lao Bei had experienced a sinister "lost body" incident not long ago. At this time, his body had not fully recovered. Where could he find the energy to teach the disobedient white-eyed wolf?

Even if it did, it would not be willing to set fire to the mountain.

The source of vitality was worried and planned to go and have a look.

The future of the Arctic region has become increasingly clear, and there is nothing for it to worry about. Before Lao Bei comes back, there is no problem in leaving it to the temporary care of humans here.

Tang Qinqin and Song Yuanze, as "Left and Right Protectors", were going to set off together.

Tang's father and Tang's mother were reluctant in their hearts, but they put on an indifferent attitude on their faces, waving their hands away repeatedly.

"Go quickly, why don't you worry? Xiao Song is still here."

Yes, during the period of infrastructure construction in the Arctic region, classmate Song Yuanze had a good face brushing in front of Tang's parents and Tang's mother, and his "calm and reliable" image was deeply rooted in the hearts of both of them.

Song Yuanze had a smile in his eyes, but his face was serious.

Without further ado, Vitality and the two of them set off quickly, with Ahu and another strong killer whale carrying them towards the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.

In fact, this wildfire that was serious enough to attract global attention was indeed not an accident.

The "horse thief" whose dogs wander around in the middle of the night is the culprit.

For many days in a row, they secretly cut down trees under cover of darkness and transported them away. Then, in order to cover up their "crime", they simply set a fire and added a handful of materials in an attempt to create the illusion that an accidental wildfire had burned down a large area of ​​forest. .

The fire is so fierce that the clues they didn't have time to cover up will disappear in the fire, and they can change places and continue to "steal wood" rampantly.

"But it's strange. There isn't much good wood in this forest. Why did that person pay such a high price to buy it? Is there something going on in this?"

Lumberjack A asked B, who was working with him next to him.

"Why do you think so much? Maybe you are a rich person who is stupid and has too much money."

Person B did not take this seriously and said in a leisurely manner: "As long as the money is in place, we'd better get less involved in other things."

As for whether he feels sorry for these destroyed forests?
Distressed.

It is an era of greening for all people, and they are all people who have planted trees with their sweat. As time goes by, they gradually develop feelings for these "silent" friends.

However, everything was for a living, and the boss promised a lot of money. They couldn't resist the temptation, and in the end they overcame the entanglement in their hearts and wielded the ruthless logging saw in their hands.

The worst thing is, if they try to plant trees in the future, if the old ones don’t go away, the new ones won’t come, right?

……

And there are more than one place in the world where such "horse thieves" are found in the middle of the night.

They started taking action almost at the same time, taking advantage of the quiet night to carry out illegal deforestation and transport a large number of trees to the location designated by the "buyer".

During this period, the wood thieves in some areas even encountered forest rangers while "committing crimes". The two parties had a disagreement and started fighting. The forest rangers who were disadvantaged in numbers were doomed to fail. In order to prevent them from going back to report the crime, their fate can be imagined. .

However, this incident was soon exposed, causing a sensation all over the world and having a bad impact.

The person who "reported" the problem was Tang Qinqin's old friend, the shy little cute hedgehog player.

It's not that it discovered the situation, but it's the only one in the hedgehog family that can communicate with humans and quickly reflect problems.

But when he received its message, Tang Qinqin had already set foot on the land on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.

After asking about the location of the incident, Tang Qinqin immediately sent the news back to the country, allowing relevant personnel to investigate and collect evidence and prepare countermeasures.

Both at home and around the world, we are now making concerted efforts to green the country and build a green planet, and we will never tolerate these "rat shit" who are holding us back behind the scenes.

After the domestic news spread, concerned people in other countries and regions discovered that there were such horse thieves around them, and soon there was a wave of midnight forest protection craze around the world.
