One hundred ways to resist the Bandoli women

Don't discuss right or wrong, just state the facts.

The more humans exploit nature, the less habitat there is for bears, and the more likely conflicts between humans and bears will arise.

But once a conflict occurs and carnivores have eaten humans, things are different - they will remember the taste of humans and become addicted.

It is said that one of the main reasons why wild animals will repeatedly attack and prey on humans after eating them is that it is much easier for humans to obtain carbohydrates and salt than wild animals, resulting in higher sugar and salt content in the human body than in wild animals.

These two nutrients are extremely attractive to animals.

Therefore, no matter how endangered a protected animal is, if it has eaten a human, it must be killed.

Let’s not talk about this for now.

"In short, after that, the whole village began to formulate a response strategy. On the one hand, they organized a bear hunting team, on the other hand, they gathered the elderly, the weak, women and children and sent people to protect them, and then they asked for help from the outside world. But unexpectedly, the bear attacked people that night."

"It broke through the wooden hut and rushed towards the bodies of the victims, but was repelled. People thought they could at least get a good night's sleep tonight, but the brown bear, which failed to take back the food, actually followed the river and attacked another house after being repelled."

"There were nine people in the house, including the pregnant wife, four sons, a daughter, and people from other families. The husband had joined the bear hunting team and was sent to seek help."

"The brown bear broke into the wooden house, and the pregnant wife was bitten, but she escaped under the protection of the hunter... The bear killed five people in the house, and the house was covered with blood and broken bodies—"

"The hunters quickly gathered and were planning to set fire to the house, but considering that there might still be people alive, they simply surrounded the house and forced the bear out to focus the fire. Although the bear was hit, it eventually escaped."

Of course, there are indeed survivors in the end.

"In just a few days, this bear has already caused seven deaths and three injuries. The villagers are in a panic and dare not sleep—"

"The police arrived a few days later and launched a trapping operation. However, due to the limited power of the police's guns and the fact that the bear was too smart, they still failed in the end."

"The hunters and the police were unsuccessful in their combined efforts. In the end, they could only pin their hopes on the thirty elite soldiers from the Eighth Infantry Division who arrived."

"At this time, several hundred people had gathered in the village. People thought it would not return to the village, so they took the initiative to attack and went into the mountains—"

“But the brown bear actually anticipated people’s predictions and broke into the village again in broad daylight, destroying eight houses and stealing a lot of people’s food for the winter.”

It's simply become a spirit.

"After receiving the news, the bear hunters immediately returned to the village to set up defenses... But at night, the light gradually dimmed. When the bear hunters were walking along the river, they suddenly found a figure by the river—"

"The leader thought it was someone from the bear hunting team and greeted him, but he didn't respond. Upon closer inspection, it was clear that something was wrong with the figure - it wasn't a person at all, but a bear standing on two feet."

If you see a person in the mountains, be careful because it could be a bear. Bears will pretend to be humans and will even wave at you to come over.

"The leader immediately ordered the shooting, and although the bear was hit, it eventually ran away."

"The bear hunting team wanted to follow the blood trail, but as if God was blessing the bear, it snowed heavily and wiped out all the traces."

After saying this, Shengren seemed to feel thirsty, so he took out the mineral water he carried with him and took a sip.

He was silent for a moment, and the others followed suit.

"and then?"

Although Matsubara Kanon was a little frightened by this story, the story suddenly stopped here, which of course aroused people's curiosity.

It was as if Katsuto was waiting for Matsubara Kanon to ask such a question.

"Then, it's the story of the hero."

Chapter 138 The story of a hero.

Hey, everyone has a treasure chest, what about me?

-

Everyone likes heroic stories.

Possess extraordinary talents and excellent qualities.

Overcome insurmountable trials and leave a legacy that will last forever.

This is a hero.

It has been mentioned many times that the origin of Shengren's name comes from the great hero who has a unique status in Greek mythology and enjoys a great reputation throughout the world.

But let’s keep it aside for now.

The protagonist of this heroic legend is a hunter named Yamamoto Heikichi.

"As early as the beginning of the tragedy, Yamamoto Heikichi learned the news and determined the identity of the bear—"

"Yamamoto Heikichi was born in the late Edo period and participated in the Russo-Japanese War. When he was young, he stabbed a brown bear to death with a kitchen knife (sabare) used to cut mackerel on Sakhalin Island, so he was named Mabare-nii."

"But a hero is not as brave as his youth. At the age of 57, Yamamoto Heikichi had already pawned the Russian rifle he had seized and his military uniform and cap to buy alcohol."

The end of Yamamoto Heikichi's life was already apparent.

Even though he once had a legendary life compared to ordinary people, he was addicted to alcohol, had drunken rages, and even had violent tendencies. He is no longer the same as he used to be.

However, he is still the best hunter in Hokkaido.

"After learning about this, Yamamoto Heikichi immediately redeemed his hunting rifle and participated in the final bear hunt."

goo—

Matsubara Kanon couldn't help but swallow.

Katsuto noticed this.

"Oh, Miss Matsubara, do you like heroic legends so much?"

"Of course!"

Although her face turned red with embarrassment, Matsubara Kanon still spoke.

It seems that she likes heroic stories very much.

"Go on, please."

He even took the initiative to urge Shengren to continue.

"The vicious bear had been shot twice, so it shouldn't be able to get far. But the forest is the territory of brown bears after all, and it's snowing, so of course we have to be cautious."

Katsuto continued.

"Early the next morning, a large group of people went into the mountains to look for the bear. But Yamamoto felt that such a large-scale pursuit by the bear hunting team would surely scare off the other side and they would definitely not be able to catch the bear."

"So he decided to take a risk and set out with only one hunter who was familiar with the mountain roads. The route he chose was completely opposite to that of the bear hunting team, and he entered the mountain from the opposite direction."

This is indeed the script that the hero in the heroic legend would take.

Kanon Matsubara clenched her hands tightly.

"and then?"

Kitazawa Ikumi urged Shengren to continue speaking on her behalf.

"His guess was very accurate. At around 10 a.m., after climbing over several hills, Yamamoto found the brown bear leaning against a birch tree."

"Yamamoto Heikichi was both excited and scared at the same time. After all, there were only two of them and there was no guarantee of winning. But this was the best opportunity. If he missed it, he might never catch it again."

"Yamamoto covered himself with mud to cover his breath and slowly approached. When he was only 20 meters away from the brown bear, he slowly raised his old gun and fired decisively."

"The bullet hit the brown bear's chest exactly. However, the shot was not fatal, and Yamamoto Heikichi's gunshot also exposed his position."

"The brown bear that was hit by the rifle was furious. But it was injured and hit again. Instead of running away, it rushed towards the people and rushed towards Yamamoto Heikichi's position."

It's the final round.

There is no room for negotiation anymore. Either you die or I live.

"Faced with the attacking beast, Yamamoto Heikichi did not lose his composure. Instead, he calmly reloaded his rifle and fired a second bullet at the brown bear's head."

"With a loud thump, the brown bear fell to the ground and could no longer get up. This evil bear that had plagued the village and eaten women and children was finally eliminated."

"Very good……"

Kanon Matsubara finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"As a follow-up to this story—"

Yamamoto Hyōyoshi.

As mentioned before, this person is an alcoholic, has a bad temper, and even commits domestic violence.

But he was indeed the best hunter in Hokkaido. He was very kind to children and even taught the mayor's son to hunt.

It is said that after he hunted down a vicious bear that was later named Kassahana, the villagers raised money to give him a bounty to express their gratitude, but he angrily refused the money and finally only accepted the military uniform given to him by the army as a reward. He continued to hunt bears after that and died in 1950 at the age of 92.

Haruyoshi Okawa, the son of the district chief who was taught to shoot by him, witnessed the atrocities committed by Kasakaki and made a vow to hunt 10 bears for each of the villagers who died to comfort them.

It was not until 1977, after killing 100 bears, that Okawa Haruyoshi announced that he would stop. He took the lead in planning and fundraising to build a memorial for the victims of the Sanmao Biepi incident.

On December 1985, 12, Okawa Haruyoshi was responsible for delivering a speech at the 9th anniversary commemoration of Sanmao's death. He suddenly fell to the ground and died at the beginning of his speech, ending his 70-year-old life of revenge.

What's strange is.

Genjuanxin remained mostly strangely quiet while Shengren told the story.

"What's up, Kkr?"

Shengren looked away.

"Are you airsick?"

"No, it's not."

Xian Juanxin shook her head.

There was no smile on her face anymore.

"I just wondered, why did it happen like this? Why did the bears eat people? Why did people and bears hurt each other like this?"

Xian Juanxin was in serious distress.

"Um, this..."

Ozawa Misaki pondered.

If you talk about human over-exploitation and bears becoming addicted after eating humans, Xian Juanxin definitely won’t understand.

So, she was thinking about how to explain it in a way that Xian Juanxin could understand.

But, until then.

"This is the relationship between humans and wild animals. Even though we want to do good for each other, as soon as we get close, disaster will occur."

Whether it's a direct conflict like this one.

Or is it that humans leave garbage like plastic bags in natural habitats, causing animals to be poisoned after eating them.

Just like Martin once said when Trevor returned his wife.

"I think we're friends now... good friends. We get along so well, but we should try to avoid running into each other—"

"So, if you want to protect bears, the best way is to stay away from them. As long as we don't meet bears, we can smile and the bears can smile too."

"That's it!"

The smile returned to Xianjuanxin's face.

"I understand. As expected of Cruz!"

If it weren't for the requirement to wear seat belts on small planes, Xian Juanxin would have probably pounced on him.

"..."

It turned out to be the case.

Ozawa Misaki understood now.

I understand why Katsuto wants to tell this somewhat scary story.

If you want a bear to smile, stay away from it.

Shengren used this story to suppress Xianjuanxin's curiosity, so that she would not think about holding a live show for Brown Bear when she got there.

This idea of taking preventive measures makes Ozawa Misaki feel that it is really amazing.

As expected of Ushiromiya-san.

It turns out that we can think of unstable factors in advance and take precautions before they happen.

However, but.
