Chapter 1564: 2 Difficult Choices
In just two days, the spirits experienced several 180-degree changes in mood.
At first, they were outraged by the fact that so many cats were killed by ferocious beasts, and they wished to find out the killer immediately and let them take their lives. Later, Richard first discovered that the existence of these cats led to the predation of a large number of rare birds. I also feel that these cats have made mistakes first, and the killer is understandable, but they still don't like him; now, they see the real body of the killer, and see the dead cat resurrected, this...
Their moods are extremely complicated, and some of their previous established concepts have been subverted.
Zhang Zian thought more, he was not a cat, the impact he received was not as great as the elves, and he didn't have such a keen sense of smell, so the imagination space was not as rich as the elves.
Could it be a coincidence that he was thinking of a connection between zombie deer and zombie cats? Of course, zombie deer is just what people call it, and deer infected with prion protein will not be resurrected after death.
Prion protein can infect cats, corresponding to feline spongiform encephalopathy, but there is no precedent for cats who get the disease to come back from the dead. If there is such a situation, the scientific world has long been turned upside down.
He still tends to think that the cats didn't come back from the dead like zombies, maybe something he and the elves didn't expect, after all, they didn't witness the whole process.
"Forget it, we can't guess why if we stay here. The wolf has already left. If we delay any longer, we will be left behind."
He glanced back at the direction in which the young male wolf left. Although the elves could track its scent and keep up with it, if there were wolves in front, it would be better if a mature wolf led the introduction.
The elves were so impacted that they were hesitant about what to do. The brave elves wanted to dig up the seals of the four cats buried yesterday to see if the four cats were alive, while the cowardly elves wanted to pretend to be dead. Act like nothing happened.
At least one question has emerged, which is why the gray wolf kills the cat but does not eat the cat. Even in games or movies, will someone eat zombie meat after killing a zombie?
But how did Gray Wolf know this? It is probably impossible to comprehend by oneself, how could the wild wolf have such awareness? Wouldn't that be perfect? Even if humans specially train a group of hounds to do this, it may take a lot of work.
Most likely, someone instructed the wild wolves to do this. As long as you follow this young male wolf, you may be able to find the truth.
Persuaded by him, the elves left the clearing and re-entered the woods following the scent of the young male wolf.
The young male wolf was not walking fast, and seemed to be waiting for them on purpose, and was caught up by them after a while.
It stopped and went, sometimes lowered its head to the roots of the tree to smell the smell, and sometimes tilted its head and didn't know what it was looking at.
"It smells like the urine of other male wolves." Femas reminded in a low voice.
In this way, the young male wolf really wanted to join the wolves. It is probably not just a wolf that wanders in the forest hunting "zombie cats".
Zhang Zian nodded, and was about to respond, when the elves with keen hearing suddenly seemed to hear some kind of sound, and collectively looked up to the rear.
Not only the elves, but also the young male wolf and the herd of deer who followed far away raised their heads in a slight panic as if frightened.
Zhang Zian didn't hear anything at first, but a few seconds later, rumbling vibrations came from behind at high speed, and the sound became louder and louder.
He looked up and saw a helicopter approaching from behind through the tiny gaps between the leaves, and was about to pass overhead. The strong wind from the propellers caused the canopy to shake slightly, and the leaves and twigs fell like raindrops.
helicopter?
Can you see a helicopter in the depths of the forest?
He first thought of Xiaoxue, because before he entered the forest, he asked Xiaoxue for one thing. After he left the forest, he would report to her and others that he was safe. If he didn't come out, he would ask her to call the police on his behalf.
Why ask her? Because among the acquaintances he knows, she is the only one who is traveling in the United States and is also in California. Otherwise, he can't let his friends living in China call the police.
The American police would definitely think it was a prank.
He couldn't think of anyone other than her who would call the police.
She has called the police?
Was the helicopter here to search and rescue him?
He was a little happy, but also a little regretful. He was happy that someone was still concerned about his safety. Unfortunately, the alarm was reported a little early, and he hadn't reached the end of his rope.
He felt the road torch through the backpack, hesitating whether to light the torch for help.
If he did not light the road torch to emit a strong red light as a signal, the helicopter pilot would not be able to see him on the ground through the dense branches and leaves, but if he was lit, the helicopter rescued him, which meant the trip That's the end of the journey.
To be honest, he was very unwilling, because he felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth, half a hundred miles away, leaving now would be tantamount to failure.
But don’t light the torch, let the forest police and forest rangers spend huge manpower and material resources to search and rescue him, he also feels unbearable, although it is not his money, but the money of American taxpayers...
The opportunity is fleeting, and there is not much time left for him to make a decision.
The Redwood Forest is a large group of parks consisting of a national park and three state parks. It covers a vast area. Even though the forest police narrowed the scope of the search and rescue through the information obtained from Xiaoxue and Megan's mother, they still have no way of knowing his specific location. The location can only be searched like a needle in a haystack. After the helicopter flies over, it may take a long time to fly back, and it may not fly back.
He hesitated in his heart, but his hands were not idle. He took out the road torch from his backpack with one hand, and raised the telescope hanging around his neck with the other hand—he didn’t suspect anything in particular, but just wanted to take a closer look.
However, the moment his eyes fell on the helicopter fuselage through the binoculars, his hand groping for the torch stopped.
This... doesn't seem to be a search and rescue helicopter dedicated to the forest police.
Although he has never seen what the helicopters used by the local forest police look like, from a common sense, search and rescue helicopters are usually painted in eye-catching colors such as red, yellow, red and white, and red and yellow, and there will be corresponding units on the fuselage abbreviation of the name.
At the same time, when the search and rescue helicopter is performing missions, the cabin door will also be in a half-open state. The forest police sitting in the cabin look out at the forest below and on the left and right sides, increasing the chances of finding the victims. The driver cannot rely solely on himself. come find.
Last but not least, the search and rescue helicopters will not fly very fast. After all, they are here to find people, so both the victims and the forestry police must have enough time to react.
But the characteristics of this helicopter do not meet any of the above points.
So this is not a search and rescue helicopter. 8) For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our Reading Academy
