After understanding the language of animals, I quit the entertainment circle and started working for

Chapter 434

The little guy on the table buried his head in the cushion and didn't move.

It was as if he hadn't heard Lin Xiao's words at all.

It's obvious they're planning to play dead.

Unfortunately, Lin Xiao didn't give him that chance at all and directly raised her hand to slap him.

Before the little guy could react, the pillow he was hiding in vanished in an instant.

She herself was even dragged down and sat on the table.

The little guy didn't seem to have realized what was happening yet. He raised his little head, looking left and right blankly, as if he knew nothing at all.

"Huh? Didn't you go out? What are you doing here?"

Lin Xiao twitched her lips sharply, then slowly leaned back in her seat, gazing leisurely at the little guy on the table.

For some reason, even though she had a smile on her face, it was inexplicably terrifying.

The little guy instinctively shrank back, secretly glanced at Lin Xiao, and couldn't help but move step by step, silently, behind the glass next to him.

Looking at this self-deceiving tactic in front of him, Lin Xiao felt both curious and amused.

She finally couldn't help but raise her hand and tap the table lightly, staring at the little guy behind the glass as she spoke softly, "Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

Why did you bite?

The other person remained huddled behind the glass, motionless.

Although the cup was originally transparent, not to mention the plain water inside, it had no ability to conceal anything.

Lin Xiao finally couldn't help but let out a soft click of her tongue, and said quietly, "Since you refuse to speak, it seems that we don't need to bother with what you asked me for before."

Upon hearing this, the little guy who had been lying on the table pretending to be a coward finally couldn't help but move.

Lin Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the other person with a half-smile. The little guy glanced at her sullenly, his whole body radiating guilt.

"So you can talk now?"

The little guy grumbled and whimpered as he stood up, his whole body radiating reluctance.

Finally, he adopted a "what's the worst that can happen?" attitude.

"What do you mean by 'can't I say'? I've already bitten you, so what's the point of asking so many questions?"

So, will you still come back to us?

The little guy was full of bravado the moment before, but when it came to his own affairs, he suddenly became cautious and timid.

He was afraid that Lin Xiao would refuse.

Lin Xiao stared at the little guy in silence for a long time, and finally just sighed silently.

"Alright, stop making that long face. You told me, you asked humans for help today but ended up hurting someone. Is that how you ask for help?"

The little guy still snorted defiantly, but it was clear that the other party's attitude was no longer as tough as before.

But she still felt a little resentful and couldn't help but secretly complain.
"Who told him to say I look like a sparrow? We're clearly not the same species, so he deserved to be bitten."

Lin Xiao was stunned for a long time after hearing this, before finally rummaging through the corners of her memory to recall when Sun Zhongwen had said those words.

She said, "These little birds usually just eat millet seeds and the like, so how come they've suddenly become so bold as to attack people?"
So the source is here?
but……

Looking at the bird's proud expression, Lin Xiao couldn't help but twitch her lips.

She said slowly, "Actually, calling you a sparrow is actually giving you an unfair advantage. Do you know what a sparrow is in our area?"

"Are they all headphone enthusiasts now?!"

The red-billed querian finch in front of them suddenly turned around and looked at them.

He hopped and skipped over to Lin Xiao, grabbing her clothes anxiously and refusing to let go.

"I clearly heard from other birds that sparrows are plentiful, how could they be a protected animal? Are you lying to me?"

The little guy's face was full of anticipation, but he was still subconsciously refuting it. Lin Xiao was a little helpless and couldn't help but nod.

He replied very perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, you're right. Were we just ignorant?"

After saying that, she got up and walked to the windowsill, pulled back the curtain, glanced back at the guy behind her, and spoke with a smile.

"Then please leave, you noble red-billed quillia. We humans really can't help you."

The little guy hopped and skipped to the windowsill, his bright, expectant eyes staring at Lin Xiao.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Just as she was about to throw the little creature out without any hesitation, she heard the bird's soft chirping.

"Then, could you also give us the designation of a Class II protected animal?"

He looked at Lin Xiao with anticipation, his dark eyes filled with clarity.

Lin Xiao:......

For some reason, she suddenly felt as if she were still alive.

How is she supposed to explain the role of the food chain and the concept of an ecosystem to a bird?
Moreover, she had no idea how to start the conversation.

Although sparrows used to be everywhere in China, various activities such as house renovations and road construction have left them without habitats, leading to a sharp decline in their numbers.

Is she now going to say to the other person: There used to be many sparrows, and they were also made protected animals by humans?

You guys wait patiently, maybe you'll have this opportunity again in the future?

What kind of hellish joke is this?!

Seeing Lin Xiao remain silent, the little guy couldn't help but start advertising for himself.

Little bird: "Look how much prettier we are than sparrows!"

Lin Xiao: "But you have more of them."

Little bird: "Do you think we're more agile than them?"

Lin Xiao: "But you have more of them!"

Little bird: ……

Lin Xiao:......

The two, one human and one bird, stared at each other, neither willing to back down.

Finally, the little guy lowered his head in dejection.

Even so, he couldn't help but remember to strive for it.

Why can't they be protected?
"Aside from quantity, are there no other requirements?"

Lin Xiao shrugged: "What else?"

However, considering that the Red-billed Quillea is now one of the most numerous wild birds in the world, becoming a protected animal seems a bit too far off.

Finally, the little guy sighed helplessly.

"What a pity, you only looked at the quantity, you guys have no vision!"

Lin Xiao hesitated, but in the end, she couldn't bring herself to say anything.

The current situation is not that humans don't want to protect them.

The main problem is that their numbers have reached a point that is causing headaches for humanity.

Even during their massive migrations, they can sometimes form groups of tens of millions.

In addition, their foraging behavior resembles a locust swarm, earning them the nickname "feathered locusts."

Nowadays, people mostly try to kill birds to eliminate pests, but becoming a protected animal seems too far-fetched.

Instead of agonizing over it here, you might as well go back and get a good night's sleep. After all... anything can happen in dreams!
