Chapter 1397 Volunteering
Zhang Zian felt that this young man with an artistic temperament was somewhat familiar, but he didn't have time to think about it, because listening to his complaints always made Zhang Zian sneeze one after another.
Did the police officer surnamed Sheng really make sense? Getting wet by the sea and walking around without drying out, leading to a cold?
The young man was tired of complaining, and bent down to pick up the birdcage to go home. At this moment, he turned his eyes and saw a figure wandering out of the alley.
It was a middle-aged and elderly woman with a kind face, but she couldn't tell the exact age, because her eyes were sometimes clear like a teenager, and sometimes chaotic like dying.
When she reached the alley, she looked forward to the side of the intersection, as if waiting for someone.
When the young man saw the figure, his hands trembled, he threw down the cage and ran over angrily, grabbed her and said, "Mom! Why did you run out by yourself? Where's the nanny?"
She glanced at him blankly, and said: "Dongyue is about to leave school, and I was not allowed to pick him up from school, I just stood here waiting for him to come back..."
Young man: "..."
The dropped birdcage fell to the ground and rolled to one side. It was about to roll off the curb and might be crushed by the car. The parrot inside was screaming in panic. Zhang Zian walked over to stop the birdcage with his feet.
The black cloth covering the birdcage was covered with dust, and the fastening buckle was loosened while rolling, and a corner of the black cloth was opened, revealing a touch of gray bird feathers and a pair of small black eyes whirling around in the birdcage.
"Quack! Prison Play! Blindfold! Mouthball!"
It fluttered its wings indiscriminately, and spit out words with unknown meanings from its beak.
Zhang Zian: "..."
He couldn't agree more with the young man's complaints. This parrot is really speechless, and thanks to the young man who was able to take it all the way, I don't know how many strange sights he has endured. It's a shameful play...
"What nonsense is this... I don't even know what the bird is talking about! Can you understand?"
In order to avoid Zhuang Xiaodie's misunderstanding, he went back to clarify.
Zhuang Xiaodie: "..."
Other pedestrians passed by and heard these... words that ordinary people don't understand coming from the birdcage,
They also cast a hellish look.
"Mom! How many times have I told you! Don't run around! You can't go out by yourself! Why are you always... Alas!" The young man sighed repeatedly, his expression full of helplessness.
He held her and didn't dare to let go, for fear that if he let go, she would run to the road and be hit by a car. He turned around and saw Zhang Zian helping him stop the birdcage, and said, "Friend, can you do me a favor? Help me carry the birdcage." Come here? Thank you!"
Zhang Zian nodded, picked up the birdcage and walked over, handed it to him and asked, "Do you know what kind of bird this is?"
"Not a parrot?" The young man was taken aback.
"It's a parrot, but this is an African gray parrot. It is an endangered animal that is prohibited from being sold and raised privately by the state. This kind of parrot cannot be kept privately unless you apply for a breeding permit." Zhang Zian explained: "There is also a reason A case of being sentenced for raising gray parrots without permission..."
"Quack! Starting in three years, the death penalty is worth it!" The gray parrot seamlessly picked up the conversation.
"Is it a big loss to be sentenced to death for keeping parrots?" Zhang Zian complained subconsciously, but immediately realized that now seemed not the right place and time to complain.
Strange to say, as soon as he heard its voice, he couldn't hold back the serious personality.
"That's it... I really don't know, I haven't understood anything about this." The young man frowned, looked at his mother worriedly, and said, "My mother's mind is a little confused, and she always misses the one I raised before." As for the talking parrot, I didn’t know what kind it was, so I went to the pet store and bought one randomly... No wonder this parrot was not on the show, I said I wanted to buy a talking parrot, but the shop owner was sneaky Sui ran to the back to pick up this one, and the price is very cheap, it turns out that it is a protected animal that is not allowed to be traded... What should I do?"
Zhang Zian generally understood, and he also saw that this elderly woman must have unfortunately suffered from Alzheimer's disease, which is currently incurable by medicine. Lesions appeared in the hippocampus, which is in charge of memory, so she often showed signs of memory confusion, and even I can't even recognize my own son...
Wait a minute, memory confusion?
He felt that his memory seemed to be a little confused, as if he couldn't remember some things that should be remembered. Could it be that he also... shouldn't be?
"You didn't ask the shopkeeper how the parrot got here?" he asked.
The young man nodded, "I saw him sneaking around, and I was suspicious, so I asked, and the shopkeeper said he picked it up - he was watching a movie on the computer, but this parrot flew in through the window and watched it with him, He caught it right away..."
"Quack! Calcium tablets! Calcium tablets!" the gray parrot called again.
"Look, it always likes to pick up people's words, and it doesn't understand why. Where did you get the calcium tablets?" The young man shook his head helplessly.
Zhang Zian laughed dryly, "I don't understand either...Which pet store is it? I'm going to go around in the future..."
Young man: "???"
"No, I mean, it's not good to let the old lady keep this kind of parrot that is banned by the country? And it's talking nonsense in its beak..." Zhang Zian hurriedly changed the subject.
"You're right. If the country prohibits private breeding, I definitely can't let my mother raise it. She is like this. If she suffers from a lawsuit for raising parrots, it's really not worth it... I can't raise it either. If I suffer a lawsuit , who will take care of her..." The young man sighed.
He held the birdcage in one hand and supported his mother in the other, appearing to be in a dilemma. On the one hand, he wanted to send his mother home and not let her walk around outside, because if she got sick, she might get lost; If the neighbors or nannies see the gray parrots in the cage, they may spread the word... Maybe they don't know that it is illegal to keep private gray parrots, but someone must know.
On top of that, he bought the parrot because it could talk, but the words it said were...clearly inappropriate for his mother to hear.
"Friend, do you know what to do with this parrot?" He asked, "Since it can't be raised, I can't take it home. Fortunately, it didn't cost much, just as a lesson, but just let it go Let it go, and I don’t know if it can survive in the wild...Maybe it will be picked up and kept at home again, and it will be sued without knowing it.”
"It should be to contact the relevant departments, such as the zoo." Zhang Zian was not sure, seeing the young man was really embarrassed, so he volunteered and said: "If you trust me, just give it to me, I will come Help you contact the relevant authorities and send it to where it should go."
