Live Cat Appraisal: Starting with a Beast That's Got a Long Prison Record

Chapter 106 Cat Bracelet
After a serious discussion, Lin Qidong, Chen Nian, and Gesang reached a consensus.

The rare, blackened Asian golden cat lingering in this area is most likely related to a powerful 'neighbor'—a leopard—lurking nearby.

After this news was announced.

The atmosphere in the entire camp became tense for a moment.

No one can ignore the enormous threat posed by a top predator lurking around them!
After discussion, Wuxianxiaoliang quickly handed over command of the team to Gesang.

"Brother Gesang, I'm entrusting this to you!"

This guide has more experience surviving in these mountains than anyone else.

Lin Qidong had no objections.

For the safety of the team, Gesang did not refuse. He nodded calmly, took out a cigarette from his shirt pocket, and took a puff.

This was an unconscious behavior he exhibited when he was deep in thought.

Everyone gathered around the campfire and looked at Gesang.

The orange flames danced in Gesang's eyes.

He quickly organized his thoughts and began to speak.

"First of all, any activities going forward must be undertaken by at least two people, and you must inform others of your whereabouts, eliminating any option of going alone."

Secondly…

He looked at Lin Qidong and Wuqiong Xiaoliang: "I need you to help me designate a clear safety zone around the camp!"

"Avoid leaving the core area of ​​the camp unless absolutely necessary, and especially avoid approaching it!"

He slightly tilted his chin in a certain direction, and everyone understood.

"Okay!" The two nodded in unison.

"Finally, there's the issue of keeping watch."

"Night watch personnel must be equipped with high-powered flashlights, bear repellent spray, and whistles, etc."

Previously, it was known that there were no threatening creatures in this area, so there was no need for night watch.

But now the situation is different!
According to Chen Nian, leopards are usually active at night, in the early morning or evening, and like to roam around in the forest.

"Therefore, keeping watch at night is absolutely necessary!"

An infinitesimal number of eyes swept over his companions.

A knowing smile played on his lips: "I'm sure no one wants to look up in the middle of the night and find themselves staring intently at our 'neighbor,' right?"

"Mmmmmmm!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began to shake their heads in unison, their movements remarkably synchronized.

Looking up, you can see leopards and such.
The scene is too beautiful to even imagine!

At this moment, Lin Qidong raised his hand: "The portable alarms we brought can also strengthen the perimeter of the camp and help with night watch!"

“Good idea,” Gesang agreed approvingly.

Once the general strategy was agreed upon, the infinitesimal amount of data immediately demonstrated efficient coordination.

The grouping and assignment of tasks were well-organized and clear.

Instructions to reinforce the tents and inspect the equipment were issued swiftly.

"Let's get moving while there's still a sliver of light on the horizon!" He clapped his hands.

"okay!"

The entire camp sprang into action.

Some people deftly tightened the guy lines, making a soft 'whoosh' sound; others carefully inspected every zipper on the tent; and still others carefully placed the alarm at the edge of the campsite.

With division of labor and cooperation, the safety level of the camp has increased dramatically!
As the last rays of dawn completely disappeared, the flickering firelight in the camp dispelled the surrounding darkness and also dispelled the slight unease in people's hearts.

The aroma of dinner wafted through the air.

Lin Qidong, Gesang, Wuqiong Xiaoliang, and Chen Nian sat around one of the fires, each holding a lunchbox.

"The matter has been reported." Lin Qidong swallowed a mouthful of hot food, his voice clear.

"The images of the corrupted golden cat have also been sent over, and we expect to hear back tomorrow. This area will soon be under special protection."

After saying that, he looked at the infinitesimal quantity.

"Brother Liang, how about we adjust your filming schedule?"

Since there is a high probability that leopards may be found in the vicinity, the filming plan naturally needs to be adjusted.

The infinitesimal was clearly planned in advance.

He looked at Chen Nian.

"In any case, the most important thing is to give up on tracking the leopard."

Chen Nian nodded understandingly: "Don't worry, Brother Liang, I'm not stupid."

Filming apex predators requires an extremely specialized team, equipment, and long-term surveillance, far exceeding the capabilities and safety limits of their teams.

Therefore, during the emergency meeting just now, the concept of infinitesimals was clearly communicated to all members.

Leopards are strictly prohibited!

"Very good." The infinitesimal's expression softened slightly, and it continued:
"As for the filming schedule, I suggest we continue filming!"

"Under the premise of ensuring absolute safety, we will continue to observe and record the blackened golden cat to a limited extent, and make full use of the existing infrared camera network to capture as many images of the golden cat as possible."

"This is where Brother Gesang comes in."

To capture Asian golden cats using a telephoto lens, a suitable shooting location and a sufficient safe distance are essential.

Only those familiar with this area can find these places.

"I will handle it."

Gesang's promise was brief and powerful.

"As for the subsequent observation and analysis of the Asian Golden Cat's behavior..." Infinitely small eyes fell on Chen Nian: "Chen Nian, this depends on you."

"You are the feline expert in the team. You must inform us immediately of every move the golden cat makes and any slight abnormality. If something is wrong, we should be ready to break camp at any time."

"understand!"

The mission was not yet complete, and Chen Nian needed time to investigate more deeply why the blackened golden cat had appeared here.

Infinite Quantity looked at Chen Nian with a serious expression: "Remember, we can only stay here for three days! "After three days, we must leave."

He reiterated the timeline.

Moreover, this timeframe may be shortened again after receiving instructions from management or after leopard tracks are discovered nearby.

Chen Nian was mentally prepared for this.

Next, Chen Nian had a much heavier task ahead of her.

He needs to analyze all the clues about the golden cat so that the team leader can decide whether to continue filming here.

At the same time, Chen Nian also needs to complete the time-limited task as soon as possible.

This is quite a challenge for him!

He would need to get closer to the nearly 40-pound, anxious, blackened Asian golden cat to possibly complete the mission.

But sometimes pressure can be a driving force.

As the person on the team who knows felines best, Chen Nian had no choice but to take on the responsibility.

"Also, regarding the follow-up..."

Around the campfire, the four of them discussed and analyzed one issue after another, working to resolve any potential problems.

at the same time.

The news of the Infinite Small Team's discovery of the blackened Asian Golden Cat spread like wildfire online, even faster than the previous discovery of the Leopard Cat!

Numerous netizens flocked to the scene upon hearing the news.

I waited in the live stream, hoping to see that glittering Asian golden cat with my own eyes.

Chen Nian's live stream viewership has already exceeded 10!

Riding on the popularity of the Asian Golden Cat, he quickly rose to the ranks of T1 level streamers, and his fan base also successfully broke through the 90 mark, rapidly approaching the goal of 100 million.

At this moment, in the live stream, after learning that there might be leopards in the vicinity, the comments split into two streams.

One aspect is a heartwarming concern:
"Teacher Chen, I don't want to see the leopard anymore, okay? You should just leave!"

"Yeah, that blackened Asian golden cat was amazing enough. Let's move on to the next area. Facing a leopard head-on is too dangerous!"

The other group consists of those who are not afraid of making things worse and stirring up trouble:

"Hey streamer, go find a leopard! We want to see leopard print!"

"Exactly! Fortune favors the bold! Let's go!"

Chen Nian did not respond to the noise, but quietly fulfilled her duty as a 'live streaming machine', focusing the camera more on the warm campfire and busy companions in the camp.

In private, he devoted almost all his energy to tracking down the Asian golden cat.

This golden cat doesn't seem too afraid of the presence of humans.

Or rather, it has become somewhat desperate and reckless.

More and more infrared cameras are capturing its elegant yet vigilant presence.

As a result, Chen Nian and his team finally accumulated several extremely clear photos of the blackened golden cat's face. Its fur exhibited a mysterious luster under infrared light, making it of extremely high scientific research value!
Lin Qidong uploaded these valuable materials immediately.

From the clues left by the golden cat, Chen Nian pieced together the answer she wanted.

Those footprints, hair, and claw marks silently tell a story.

This beautiful big cat was indeed driven to the edge of this relatively unfamiliar sea of ​​flowers by a more powerful being.

The truth about the 'mission' is simple: 'It's done, meow!'

'The reward has been sent, meow~'

Xiao Mi's energetic voice rang cheerfully in Chen Nian's mind.

This made Chen Nian breathe a slight sigh of relief.

Thankfully, the mission was completed.

This means he no longer needs to make any further contact with the Asian golden cat, or the more dangerous leopard!

These big cats are too dangerous.

Chen Nian wasn't ready to face the cats directly until she reached a certain level of intimacy with them.

The journey of petting big cats is long and arduous!
Chen Nian put away the golden cat fur she found in her hand, and then looked at her wrist.

He could feel something on his wrist.

Fortunately, he was dressed warmly, so Lin Sen next to him did not notice anything unusual.

"This is the cat bracelet?"

Chen Nian slowly rolled up her sleeves.

An ordinary-looking white bracelet quietly appeared.

To outsiders, it is just an ordinary mechanical watch.

The pointer above is still moving.

But in Chen Nian's eyes, it was more like a radar!
If you look closely, you can see a tiny, cute little Mimi head printed in the center of the dial, playfully winking.

[Cat Bracelet: The bracelet will automatically send an alert when a rare feline appears within 500 meters of the wearer.]

Chen Nian had just finished reading the introduction to the cat-themed bracelet.

The next moment, the bracelet began to vibrate regularly.

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.
It felt like something small was gently tapping inside.

"Huh?" Lin Sen, who was sitting next to him, turned his head in confusion: "Old Chen, did your alarm go off?"

"Yes, alarm clock."

Chen Nian casually pressed the slightly vibrating bracelet and replied nonchalantly, but her eyes quickly scanned her surroundings, and her heart began to beat faster!
The cat-themed bracelet actually sent out a notification!

Is that Asian golden cat nearby?
Or.
Is it a leopard?!
(What do you do for a living, Master?)
