Animal Detective

Chapter 438 This is their daily training
During the discussion, zoologist Chen Wanbin offered many suggestions.

For example, hornbills, woodpeckers, and even laughingthrushes all exhibit behaviors that demonstrate intelligence and cooperation among their kind.

However, compared to ravens and grey parrots, which possess logical reasoning, thinking, the ability to imitate human speech, and the capacity to understand the meaning of language, they fall far short.

He also mentioned a bird, the blue-green magpie.

Like magpies, this creature belongs to the Corvidae family and the Magpie genus, and it also possesses a relatively high level of intelligence.

But still, it can't compare to the raven parrot.

However, when it comes to animal intelligence, primates clearly have the upper hand.

Chen Wanbin said, "Shen Xin, you're envisioning excellent survival skills and mobility in the forest."

"Birds can fly in the sky, which is an unparalleled advantage."

"But I think monkeys are quite active in the mountains and forests; they can move quickly between the treetops."

"Most importantly, like birds, normal people don't pay attention to them, which meets your requirements in terms of concealment."

"Primates certainly have a higher potential for intelligence than birds."

At this point, Chen Wanbin introduced the primate population in the Dehong area.

The most famous of these is naturally the Phayre's leaf monkey.

Then there's the white-browed gibbon, and there's also a unique species in China, the eastern white-browed gibbon.

Of course, like slow lorises and stump-tailed macaques, these are rare, first-class protected animals, and very precious.

Some met Shen Xin's requirements, and there were also many.

For example, stump-tailed macaques and rhesus macaques.

Especially macaques, which are what ordinary people call monkeys.

“Shen Xin, think about it. In the past, when people performed acrobatics, they trained macaques. They could perform all sorts of complex movements and understand the trainer’s intentions.”

"Then if you do it, wouldn't it be twice as effective?"

“I remember that there are a large number of macaques in the Dehong Mountains. You can try to take advantage of the wild macaques’ fear of people and do some targeted training.”

"For example, they are trained to immediately raise an alarm if they spot humans in the mountains and forests."

"Your previous idea of ​​using a locator to perform specific actions was quite good."

"I think it would be even easier to do it on macaques. For example, you could put a wristwatch on them with an alarm."

"They press the alarm as soon as they see someone, and I think this can be achieved entirely through training."

He spoke of the rise.

But after calming down, he added, "However, macaques have a very strong sense of territory and live in groups, so they cannot conduct large-scale reconnaissance like birds."

Shen Xin was no stranger to monkeys.

I had dealt with them before; they even solved the gold mine case using monkeys.

Monkeys are undeniably intelligent, quite clever indeed.

The problem is that my talent lies in cultivating affection and making animals more approachable.

It is impossible to rely on human vigilance to issue warnings, as Chen Wanbin had envisioned.

All things considered, I feel that birds are better, mainly because of their large search area.

"Teacher Chen, could you please send me some materials? I'll study them and think about it some more."

This is not something that can be easily accomplished; Shen Xin needs to think about it some more.

The video call ended.

Just as I was making plans, I heard voices coming from outside.

When I went outside, I saw Wang Feng had arrived.

He is currently talking to Pan Wenhai in the courtyard.

I was very curious when I saw a yard full of birds.

Especially Teddy.

Pan Wenhai, not without a hint of boasting, introduced Teddy to Wang Feng, saying that Teddy was worth seven million.

"Yeah, expensive and handsome, mainly handsome."

Wang Feng watched with envy.

Upon meeting Shen Xin, after exchanging pleasantries, he pointed to the birds and asked what level of pursuit was possible.

Wang Feng's greatest knowledge about birds comes from buying his son a budgie, which died after only half a month.

Shen Xin thought for a moment and then asked Wang Feng what scenario he wanted to achieve.

The question was thrown back at him, and Wang Feng thought for a moment before saying, "Suppose there's a car that starts from the city and drives into the mountains, can these birds follow that car the whole time?"

"Also, if we arrive at our destination and people get off the vehicle, can the birds still follow them?"

After saying that, he said guiltily, "Isn't this too difficult for me?"

Wang Feng knew that Shen Xin had come with a mission.

However, since it was a task assigned by the provincial department and had not yet been implemented, Wang Feng was unaware of it.

He made a few inquiries and learned that Shen Xin was invited over to train a group of birds, which were said to be able to track targets like police dogs.

But he didn't know exactly how far he could go or how he would pursue them.

Pan Wenhai nodded subconsciously.

In his view, it was simply making things difficult for people, no, for birds.

It's a bird, why would it do whatever you tell it to do?
Shen Xin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, as he had thought Wang Feng would make some complicated demands.

"Captain Wang, what you're describing is exactly what they train for every day, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it."

Similar training exercises are conducted in our daily training.

For example, you could drive a car and have Yifan and his team follow them.

They also have to find people, lock onto the target, and then follow them relentlessly.

It will also increase the difficulty, such as entering complex environments, like a vegetable market, so that they can fly high again to search for the target after losing it.

Therefore, Wang Feng felt no pressure at all when he said these things.

"Really?" Wang Feng exclaimed in surprise.

Shen Xin laughed and said, "How could this be fake? Why don't we give it a try?"

It seems Wang Feng has a case to handle, so Shen Xin will definitely have to help.

Wang Feng hesitated for a moment, then quickly nodded and asked Shen Xin how to try it.

Shen Xin thought for a moment and said, "How about this, you drive back to the Municipal Bureau now, don't get out of the car along the way. After we arrive at the Municipal Bureau, I will have Erlong show up and say hello to you."

Shen Xin pointed to Erlong in the cage. Erlong stared at him and said a clear "hello".

"Wow, they can even talk!" Wang Feng exclaimed in surprise, then quickly added, "It's seven or eight kilometers from here to the Municipal Bureau. They won't get lost, will they?"

This bird has run away; it won't be easy to find.

Shen Xin said, "It's alright. We won't get lost even if it's seven or eight kilometers, let alone seven or eight kilometers."

"And it is precisely because of the distance that their execution capabilities can be proven."

When they're close enough that their helmets are within signal range, their abilities aren't really apparent.

Wang Feng didn't ask any more questions. He was very curious about this matter and quickly asked how to do it.

Shen Xin opened Erlong's cage, and as soon as he reached out, Erlong jumped onto his arm, climbed up, and obediently stood on Shen Xin's shoulder.

Then, they went outside and pointed to Wang Feng's car, asking Erlong to remember it.

"remember."

Erlong speaks with a slight retroflex consonant.

"Captain Wang, you should set off then, and come back after you see Erlong," Shen Xin said.

Wang Feng boarded the bus with some skepticism.

You only let Erlong see it once, and you remember it already?
"I'm really leaving." Wang Feng poked his head out.

Shen Xin nodded with a smile.

Wang Feng stopped thinking about it and drove off.

Shen Xin gave a few more instructions, telling Erlong to follow along, say hello to the people after they got off the car, and then get back in the car.

The task was divided into three parts, and the two dragons were asked to memorize them separately.

Crows have a strong memory and don't forget things.

For each mission, Shen Xin would confirm it via his mental voice.

Once he was sure that Erlong had memorized everything, he threw Erlong into the air and quickly disappeared into the night.

Like falcons, crows do not possess the night vision of owls, which allows them to see as if it were daytime by the faint starlight.

But as long as there is light, that is enough for them.

The city was brightly lit, so it wouldn't significantly hinder their tracking and search.

"Is that all?" Pan Wenhai craned his neck to look.

In the darkness of night, a pure black raven was nowhere to be seen.

Shen Xin nodded and led Pan Wenhai back to the courtyard to find the wireless receiving equipment.

Then I connected it to the tablet and showed Pan Wenhai the real-time situation.

The largest component inside the helmets worn by Teddy and his friends is a 4G communication module. It's a small circuit board that Liu Guoshuai and his team handcrafted, and it's located at the back of their heads along with the antenna.

However, due to power limitations, the transmission range is limited to only about four kilometers.

Liu Guoshuai and his team had considered that if someone was following behind, this distance would be more than enough.

For even greater distances, drones or communication equipment could be used as relays.

The last time we conducted an exercise at Shitangshan, we used relay equipment.

Now it's seven or eight kilometers away from the municipal bureau, which is beyond the designated area.

But right now we can see Erlong's situation in real time.

In the footage, he is flying over the city, with a road below and heavy traffic.

It's unclear where Erlong's attention is, but it's definitely below.

From this vantage point, and given that Wang Feng was driving a common black sedan, it was difficult to determine which car was actually his based solely on the current video footage.

At least Shen Xin didn't notice.

But Pan Wenhai saw through it.

Having worked at the checkpoint for over a decade, dealing with cars all day long, he quickly pointed to a vehicle and exclaimed in astonishment, "This is Wang Feng's car!"

Erlong is indeed stalking Wang Feng.

"This is incredible! Look, he's still hovering in the air when we get to the traffic lights."

As the car approached the traffic light, Erlong also stopped simultaneously.

Pan Wenhai was shocked.

This kind of tracking is so precise, even a god would have a hard time detecting it.

the other side.

After driving away, Wang Feng intentionally looked in the rearview mirror for any trace of crows.

He has an exceptional memory and top-notch observation skills, yet he discovered nothing.

While waiting at the traffic light, he leaned over and looked at the sky through the windshield.

It was pitch black; you couldn't see anything.

After driving for a while, they came to another traffic light. Wang Feng didn't get out of the car, but instead stuck his head out of the window and looked up at the sky.

Still no findings.

There's none on the roof either.

The treetops, telephone poles, and traffic lights in the distance also failed to notice the crow's appearance.

Wang Feng even suspected that he had lost track of Erlong.

There are cars everywhere in this city, and I drive a very common black car. Surely the crows can't remember license plate numbers or recognize car logos.

With some skepticism, Wang Feng arrived at the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

He got out of the car at the parking lot.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of flapping wings overhead and behind me.

The next moment, a large bird landed on the roof of the car in the darkness. It was none other than Erlong, wearing a helmet.

"Hello."

The two dragons spoke in human voices, greeting each other.

Then he jumped out of the car, hopped and skipped through the open door, got into the car, sat in the passenger seat, and turned to speak again.

"boarding."

Wang Feng's eyes widened, and only one word escaped his mouth: "Holy crap!"

This is fucking amazing.
