Animal Detective

Chapter 399 This crow is probably a bit cheeky.
Having confirmed the location of the real casino, Li Fang didn't rush into action; the group continued watching the video.

Teddy's search is comprehensive.

Hiking in the mountains, couples climbing to enjoy the scenery, and that temple.

Meanwhile, Teddy also found another shed covered with camouflage cloth in another location.

This place is close to the foot of the mountain, so if nothing unexpected happens, it should be a fake casino.

Li Fang circled the location with a pen and simply adjusted the distance.

It's over two kilometers long.

"Yang Zhi, I think we can take action now," Li Fang said in a deep voice.

Yang Qingmin nodded slightly and gave a word of advice to be careful.

He doesn't need to worry about the specifics of how to do it.

Confirming the location is the hardest part; as for catching the person?
If the suspect gets away again, then Li Fang, the captain, might as well quit his job.

Li Fang immediately rolled up the topographical map and left, calling Zhou Shaobo and the others to arrange the action plan.

The main force is still on the outskirts. When the time comes, the real and fake casinos will strike together to ensure that no one can escape.

Shen Xin continued watching the recorded video.

Teddy had clearly finished searching, which was about what he expected, in less than fifteen minutes.

Then it began to hover at high altitude.

Shen Xin immediately recognized that he was about to begin hunting.

Unfortunately, the mountains and forests were not his domain, and after circling around for a while, he came up empty-handed.

There was no other way but to turn back and search in more distant areas.

Just then, a black thing flew out of the mountains and flew straight toward Teddy.

The body camera was strapped to Teddy's body, so it captured everything clearly.

Chen Guanglin was startled. He watched as Teddy suddenly pulled up and a dark shadow swept past him. He exclaimed, "What is that thing?"

The incident happened so suddenly that Shen Xin didn't see it clearly.

I rewound it and slowed it down, and then I could see clearly that it was a black, rather large bird.

"Hey, is that a crow?" Zhang Hancheng glanced at it and said.

Shen Xin thought so too; dressed all in black, he looked like a crow.

I couldn't quite make out which variety it was.

But it is obviously not small, so it should not be a small-billed crow, barn crow, or jackdaw.

As they were talking, the crow in the camera lens chased after them again.

The camera was pointed downwards and didn't capture him, but we can infer from Teddy's movements that the crow was probably harassing him.

Shen Xin was secretly astonished. Was this crow really that bold?
Sure enough, the crow's actions angered Teddy.

He pulled up sharply and swooped down like a bomber.

The speed was so fast that the image became extremely blurry.

It was just a hair's breadth away from the crow disappearing into the bushes.

They didn't catch them.

Teddy hovers above the treetops; the video shows the whistling wind and the faint cawing of crows.

It's just that the sound it makes is a bit strange.

Zhang Hancheng asked curiously, "Don't you guys think this crow looks like it's...laughing?"

Shen Xin nodded quickly.

That's the feeling; the cawing of the crow sounds like someone laughing.

In the video, Teddy is preparing to leave.

As a result, the crow emerged again and chased after them, provoking them once more.

Teddy immediately turned around and attacked.

As soon as it rushed out, the crow darted back into the woods.

This time, being closer, his strange laughter could be heard more clearly.

Yang Zeran, who was huddled next to Shen Xin and peeking out, blurted out "Damn it!" and then said, "This crow is too shameless."

Shen Xin nodded quickly.

Yes, that's what it feels like.

Like a lawyer in a movie, repeatedly jumping back and forth between inside and outside the police line.

Not content with mere provocation, they also mocked me.

Shen Xin turned to look at Teddy beside him and teased, "Teddy, he's making fun of you, and you just flew away like that?"

In the footage, Teddy simply ignores the provocation.

Teddy tilted his head, looking at Shen Xin with a puzzled expression.

【joke】

The next moment, he must have finally understood what those words meant, because his eyes widened in surprise.

With a sharp cry, it pushed off with its feet and soared into the sky.

This reaction startled Shen Xin.

"My God, is he... going to get revenge?" Yang Zeran was dumbfounded.

Zhang Hancheng and the other two had the same expression.

Not only did it understand human speech, but this bird also knew how to seek revenge.

In an instant, Teddy had already flown far away.

Zhang Hancheng hurriedly asked, "Shen Xin, are you alright?"

Shen Xin watched the departing Teddy bear, speechless to himself.

I never expected Teddy to suddenly develop a sense of pride.

So what were you doing when you were provoked and mocked?

Shen Xin shook his head and said, "It should be fine."

It's not that I'm worried Teddy can't beat the crow.

The key point is that this isn't Teddy's home turf.

If this were on the grasslands, Teddy would have been able to catch that crow in no time.

But the mountains and forests?
Shen Xin pursed his lips, thinking it was probably not going to work out.

At this moment, Shen Xin suddenly realized that the crow had appeared near the fake casino.

Could it be that these people used crows to deliver messages?
The crow is quite clever.

Just by watching it repeatedly provoke Teddy and knowing how to take advantage of the terrain, it's enough to prove how high its intelligence is.

Shen Xin thought about it more and more and it seemed possible.

There is also evidence.

Crows can mimic human speech, perhaps not as well as birds like grey parrots, but they are definitely among the best.

The crow in front of me can make a human-like laugh, clearly indicating that it has been trained.

Shen Xin immediately shared his thoughts with Zhang Hancheng and the others.

Zhang Hancheng's eyes widened slightly in surprise. "You mean, this group used that crow to deliver messages?"

He looked into the case and was puzzled himself, unable to understand how this group could transmit messages to the real casino, which was being blocked from receiving signals, after the fake casino was shut down.

His initial thought was the same as Yang Zeran's: that someone was observing from a distance using binoculars.

However, knowing the mountain roads were difficult to traverse, he quickly dismissed the idea.

But he never expected that he could use birds.

Shen Xin said, "Chief Zhang, I've seen the video of the previous arrest operation and noticed that someone was blowing a bird whistle in it."

"This crow can make a human-like laugh, clearly it's been trained. It hovers near the fake casino, and if it sees us, the suspect immediately blows a whistle." "Upon hearing this, the crow, according to its training, immediately goes to find its master."

“He can fly through the mountains, covering two or three kilometers in just a minute or two. The real casinos, on the other hand, can immediately tell that there’s something wrong with the fake casino as soon as they see crows.”

Zhang Hancheng frowned and remained silent.

Yang Qingmin and the other person next to them gasped slightly.

This method was completely unexpected by the two of them.

Yang Zeran looked at Shen Xin speechlessly. He knew that Shen Xin had already had an idea, but when asked, he still wouldn't say.

At this moment, Yang Qingmin suddenly said, "Oh no, if that's really the case, we have to notify Li Fang and the others immediately, we can't let them shut down the fake casino first."

Previously, we were considering some special way to transmit information.

But who would have thought of using trained crows?

Without knowing this situation, no one would care about a bird in the sky.

If the fake casino is raided first, the news can spread and affect the arrests at the real casino.

As he spoke, he hurriedly called Li Fang.

Shen Xin had thought of this, but felt it was nothing to worry about.

An unexpected outcome.

The teddy bear's pride was hurt, so it went to seek revenge.

If that crow ever takes flight, would Teddy let it get away with it?
Then you can forget about getting this news out.

Meanwhile, Li Fang had already made arrangements, and the main force entered the mountains, heading straight for the real casino.

The team was led by Zhou Shaobo.

On the fake casino side, there were fewer people, so Li Fang personally led the team.

Upon receiving Yang Qingmin's call and hearing Shen Xin's speculation that the other party was using crows to deliver messages, Li Fang asked incredulously, "Director Yang, is that even possible?"

Yang Qingmin said, "What do you mean by 'possible'? I think Shen Xin's speculation is correct. Think about it yourself, the crow can make a human-like laugh, which means it has been trained."

"He's showing up near a fake casino again. Tell me, is that even possible?"

After saying that, Yang Qingmin couldn't help but marvel at how clever Shen Xin was.

He heard the crows laughing, but he just thought it was a funny thing.

Shen Xin immediately realized that Crow Laugh had received training and could associate his appearance with the location of his appearance.

Li Fang paused for a moment and then stopped asking.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of lingering fear.

Without this reminder, something went wrong and they got away.

He was still running in front of three squad leaders...

Li Feng took a deep breath, found a pair of binoculars, and observed the location of the fake casino from a distance.

What I saw first was a teddy bear circling in the air.

Teddy was furious.

I couldn't be bothered with that charcoal thing; he even mocked me.

In particular, it made him lose face in front of Shen Xin.

How can I tolerate this!
His eyes were fixed on the piece of charcoal on the branch below, and he kept making noises.

Come on, let's settle this in the sky.

The crow wasn't stupid; it knew Teddy had his eye on it.

And this time it's for real.

If it really flies out, without the cover of dense branches, I would be no match for Teddy.

So he didn't go out, but instead hopped around on the tree branches, laughing up at the sky.

Teddy was so angry he wanted to rush into the tree branch and twist the black thing's head off.

Of course, it's just something to think about.

Teddy knew he couldn't rush in; the woods were too small, and he wouldn't have enough room to maneuver.

Unlike the owl, who is the sixth in command, whose hunting grounds are the sky and the grasslands.

This time, Teddy did not give up easily.

He had enough patience to believe that the charcoal would stay hidden in the woods forever.

And as long as he comes out, I have to get my revenge.

time flies.

At some point, the crows on the branches suddenly heard a sharp bird whistle.

It instinctively wanted to take off, but as soon as it took off, it quickly hibernated back down.

The teddy bear on its head is staring at me.

Flying back to its owner will bring delicious food, but flying away at this time will likely result in it becoming food itself.

The crow cawed a few more times towards the sky.

It’s not over, right?
Believe it or not... I'll just stay here and see who can outlast whom.

The location of the fake casino not far away.

Shen Xin followed Li Fang and the others.

He even stretched his arms and legs a bit, and quickly pressed down on one of them.

Once they reached the camouflage cloth, everyone had been brought under control.

One of the young men had a bird whistle in his mouth and was blowing it anxiously incessantly.

"Still bragging!"

Shen Xin stepped forward and snatched the bird whistle away.

Shen Xin believed that the crow must have heard the whistle, but hearing it was useless.

Step out from under the canvas and look up.

Through the gaps in the treetops, you can still see the teddy bear circling endlessly in the air.

Teddy was clearly furious and determined to fight the crow to the death.

At that moment, Zhou Shaobo's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

"Captain Li, the scene is under control, and no one has escaped."

"very good."

Li Fang nodded to himself, thankfully he hadn't lost face in front of his superiors.

He couldn't help but glance at Shen Xin.

I had only one feeling in my heart: I've been a huge help.

Shen Xin heard the walkie-talkie, thought for a moment, went to a more open area, and whistled towards the sky.

Teddy heard it immediately and quickly spotted Shen Xin.

After a slight hesitation, it spiraled down.

It cried out as soon as it landed.

Wait for me.

Get rid of him

He has quite a temper.

"Alright." Shen Xin pressed him down to comfort him, having already noticed that the crow took the opportunity to quickly fly into the sky and fly away into the distance.

He should go find his owner.

Shen Xin was also quite curious. Who was this person who came up with such an idea?
