The red-eyed crow felt that he had been perfunctory, and he was depressed for a while, but finally gave in. He recalled and said in a deep tone, "A long time ago, I was a happy crow..."
Chi Feichi: "..."
I always feel like this story will be very long...
"I felt that living with the tribe was too boring, so I left the tribe, went out to wander, and then met another group of crows..."
The red-eyed crow spent a minute describing his heroic achievements, "That's how I became the leader and led them in their lives..."
Chi Feichi silently changed to a crow to treat the injury.
After that, the red-eyed crow spent another minute talking about its life with its men, and then sighed depressedly.
"But after several years, they all died, and I was still alive. Several years later, their children died, and I was still alive. After that, I left and walked all the way to the place where I wanted to stay.
, I just found a group of crows as my subordinates, led them to hunt, and watched them die. I traveled to many places, and my subordinates changed one after another..."
Chi Feichi stopped and looked up at the crow seriously, "How many years have you lived?"
"I don't know. I was on the road a lot. There were many rice fields in the places I passed before, but then there were more and more buildings. I couldn't even find the place where I came out. I only knew that the crow that followed me was dead.
Batch after batch, if one generation can be regarded as one session, I have led 14 crows, and this is the 15th..." The red-eyed crow said with emotion, "Their lifespan is too short, I am looking for you because
I want to find a long-lived creature as a companion.”
Chi Feichi raised his hand and rubbed his brows, took a deep breath, and said as calmly as possible, "You may have misunderstood the life span of humans. The life span of crows in the wild is about 13 years. You said you have led them for 14 years. If you didn't
If you remember correctly, then you have lived at least 182 years. This is just a conservative estimate, and a human being can live 82 years, which is very good."
"Huh?" The red-eyed crow tilted its head in disgust, "Have I lived this long?"
"How did you live for so long?" Chi Feichi asked.
After calculating the approximate age of the crow, his first thought was
I am really a psychopath. Hearing animals talking is actually just my hallucination. Otherwise, how could there be a crow that has lived for more than 180 years?
However, he could indeed learn information that was impossible to know from animals and plants, and Fei Chi did indeed guide him along the way in the dark. Humans alone would never be able to see in that kind of darkness and perfectly locate Conan at that time.
of the location.
This may be ruled out.
That means...this crow has become a spirit? Has he cultivated?
"How do I know why I have lived for so long," the red-eyed crow said depressedly, "I also want to know this question."
"Have you had any adventures?" Chi Feichi guided.
"What adventures can we have?" The red-eyed crow wondered, "Isn't it just looking for food all day long and playing around when you're full?"
Chi Feichi looked at the red-eyed crow. It was a little larger than other crows, with dark and shiny feathers. The most special thing was the pair of red eyes, and he suddenly thought of a possibility...
genetic mutation!
Generally, the eyes of crows are black. It is rare that the eyes turn red due to disease, and the possibility of genetic mutation cannot be ruled out.
If this crow has no disease, its red eyes are a manifestation of genetic mutation, and it may be because of genetic mutation that it has a longer lifespan.
Although time in this world is messy, sometimes it is not very friendly to Newton, and there is a metaphysical species like Koizumi Anko, but the science is not too generous. There are even drugs that can turn people into children.
It is not impossible for crows to live longer after mutating.
Not to mention that the red-eyed crow cannot speak human words. Even if it can speak, it may not be because it has become a spirit. It may also be because the myna gene is in the body...
"Do you know about genetic mutations?"
"You know one thing," the red-eyed crow stared at Chi Feichi's eyes, "are they like yours? Not many people have purple eyes."
"My eyes are hereditary. I heard it started from my grandmother. She did have a genetic mutation, and it has been passed down to my mother and me." After Chi Feichi explained, he calmed down and continued to help the other crow deal with the injury.
.
After thinking about it, it seems that there is nothing strange about a long-lived red-eyed crow, whether it is because of metaphysics, science or science.
The red-eyed crow looked at the eyes of other crows one by one, "My eyes are also different from other crows. Do you mean that I live longer because of a genetic mutation?"
"This is just my guess, but if you want to find a living creature as a companion, you can actually find a lizard..." Chi Feichi paused, "Forget it, a lizard can't survive you. The lifespan of a turtle is not that exaggerated, but the islands near the Pacific Ocean
On the Internet, there are tortoises that eat plants and their lifespan can reach 300 years. If that’s not enough, you can look for clams. The longest known life span is more than 500 years.”
"How can they keep me company if they can't understand me? I don't want to look at each other in a daze every day." The red-eyed crow took two steps back, waved its wings very humanely, patted the crow next to it, and said depressedly, "Actually, they are not either.
You are very able to understand what I mean, and I have taught you little by little. Only you can hear me clearly and clearly after all these years... I said, can't you work hard to live longer? "
Look what this says!
Chi Feichi glanced at the red-eyed crow and continued to wrap the crow in gauze, "This cannot be decided by hard work. There are many accidents in the world. You and I may die at any time. You think about it yourself.
Do you want to stay?"
"Don't think about it, I've already checked it out. Although your life span is a little shorter, you are better than a crow at least. You can understand what I say, and you are a good fighter. You have the style of our crows. Also, you can't fight with that snake."
Blame it, and you know how to treat injuries of animals, so of course I will follow you." After taking stock, the red-eyed crow became depressed again, "But if you die and I don't, what should I do?"
"Crow's Mouth," Chi Feichi raised his hand and knocked the red-eyed crow on the head, "Let's wait until this year passes."
Who knows how long this year will be and whether it will last.
"That's the only way it can be," the red-eyed crow sighed, then turned to look at Chi Feichi, "If you die, should I die for love? I can't bear it anymore..."
Chi Feichi paused for a moment, put the bandaged crow aside, and repeated, "Sacrifice for love?"
"Isn't that what humans say? When one dies, the other dies too," the red-eyed crow said gloomily, "That's what it means anyway..."
"Read more in the future," Chi Feichi picked up the next crow, "Also, follow me to help."
"No problem, just ask if you have anything." The red-eyed crow lowered its head and scratched the ground with its paws. "Anyway, I have nothing to do all day long. I just take them to find food, drink, and have some fun."
Chi Feichi added, "I can provide food and accommodation."
"No need for the time being. Looking for food is fun. When I have nothing to do, I still want to find it by myself." The red-eyed crow thought and continued to scratch the ground with its paws. "I still want to go out and fly, and I don't want to live in a cage."
"Okay." Chi Feichi nodded.
The red-eyed crow stopped scratching the ground and raised its wings to pat the crow next to it. "I numbered them, from 2 to 22. The number 1 left is me. Why don't you give me a name? If you die
I don’t want to die for my love, and I won’t change my name. I’ll just keep it as a forever memorial..."
Chi Feichi had a black line on his head and automatically ignored the content of the crow's mouth, "Fei Mo."
"What a good name! In this way, others will know that we are in the same group." The red-eyed crow nodded with satisfaction, jumped to Fei Chi's side, and patted Fei Chi with its wings. "We will be companions from now on, please take care of us!"
"
Fei Chi was so tired that he lay dead on the ground. Although he couldn't understand what the red-eyed crow was screaming, but judging from Chi Fei Chi's previous words, this guy was taken in. He didn't care about Fei Mo's actions and rolled lazily to
On the other hand, "I won't fight today. I'll fight you another day. Next time, don't cheat and find so many crows as helpers. Let's fight in a duel!"
"You don't have to feel guilty. Although we just had a fight and you attacked my lovely men first, I was very happy with this fight," Fei Mo said earnestly, then turned to look at Chi Feichi,
"By the way, Master, I have a meeting gift for you..."
With that said, he flew towards the tree.
Chi Feichi: "..."
Meeting gifts are not important. What is important is that you should consider the communication issues between the two pets at home.
Ten seconds later...
Chi Feichi silently put away his previous thought that "meeting gifts are not important".
Can anyone tell him why Feimo has a detective armband?
Still two!
Considering the crow's behavior and the red-eyed crow that appeared outside Amei's apartment before, it's not difficult to guess that he was definitely robbing it!
But there should only be one in Bumi's hand. In other words, Feimo met other members of the Young Detective Team and robbed something?
Although he didn't know which two were robbed, he felt like a scapegoat was hanging over his head.
If Conan and the others saw the detective armband in his hand, would they think he was instructing the crows to snatch the children's belongings?
Feimo placed the two detective armbands on the ground and took credit, saying, "The little girl the master saved today was using this small communicator to contact other people. I think it is very convenient, but I didn't steal it... No,
The little girl's little communicator didn't suit me very well, and then I saw two other children with it, and it looked very pleasing to the eye. I originally wanted to use it as a toy, but now I'll give it to the owner!"
Chi Feichi picked up the detective armband and made sure he was not communicating before saying, "I'm also familiar with the other four children."
Feimo was immediately embarrassed, but it was only awkward for a second or two. He said seriously, "Master, don't worry, let's analyze it first! I didn't show up at that time. Other crows look similar to you humans. They should recognize
If you don't come out, and you've already taken everything, you can't send the things back. That would look too suspicious, so why don't we destroy the corpses and eliminate all traces?"
Chi Feichi put the detective armband back on the ground, "As soon as possible, remember to throw it far away."
"I'll go right now!" Fei Mo's eyes shone brightly. His vision was indeed as good as ever, and finding a human companion was so to his liking. He looked around, called a subordinate who was not seriously injured, and left with the detective armband in his mouth.
When Morien Yurijiang walked forward, he happened to see two crows leaving. He didn't think much about it. He just looked at the animals lying on the ground and wrapped in gauze. It felt like they had died collectively after receiving treatment...
