Lu Chen walked forward, and it followed.
Lu Chen stopped, and it continued to play dumb.
After repeating this a few times, Lu Chen decided to tease it.
As the Kakapo couldn't fly and was fat, it couldn't walk fast.
When the Kakapo took the opportunity to squat on the ground and play dumb again, Lu Chen deliberately sped up and jogged forward.
The Kakapo looked up and found that Lu Chen's figure was almost out of sight.
This was even worse!
It immediately flapped its wings that could not fly at all. It flapped its two chubby legs and ran in the direction of Lu Chen with the footsteps of an arrogant fool.
Lu Chen originally wanted to hide behind a tree from afar to see how the Kakapo would react when it saw that he was gone. However, when he saw this scene, he laughed so hard that his snot almost sprayed out.
Why did it want to follow him?
He clearly didn't do anything!
Seeing that Little Chick was about to rush to his side, Lu Chen calmly walked out from behind the tree and blocked its path.
Because she was too fat and her inertia was too strong, the lady Kakapo crashed into Lu Chen before she could brake. She fell to the ground and did not recover for a long time.
Lu Chen looked at its confused expression and sighed.
It was true. As expected of a species that lowered the average intelligence of birds. He had finally seen it today.
"No, little thing, why are you following me? I have nothing to give you."
Lu Chen tried his best to be gentle as he coaxed the Kakapo.
However, it still looked at Lu Chen in a daze and did not react.
Although
he did not want to admit it, this was the first animal that had failed to communicate since Lu Chen obtained the Affinity of All Things.
Sighing again, Lu Chen stood up and continued walking forward.
Another cracking sound came from behind him.
He turned around and saw that he did not even bother to pretend this time. He directly followed beside Lu Chen's feet righteously.
Was she afraid that he would run away again?？
Lu Chen felt that his head was a little big.
If he couldn't get anything out of her, what should he do?
I can only let it follow me!
[I don't know why, but every time I see this Kakapo wiggle around, I feel like it has a subtle sense of humor…]
】
It was true that they were glued together.
Lu Chen originally thought that since the Kakapo was so fat, it definitely did not exercise much.
If he walked fast, it would definitely not be able to keep up after a while. When it was tired, it would naturally not chase after him.
However, what Lu Chen did not expect was that after walking for half an hour with weights, nothing happened to the chicken, but Lu Chen himself was so tired that his forehead was covered in sweat!
What was going on!
He could not shake it off, he could not shake it off, he could not shake it off anymore. If it wanted to follow, then it could follow. When he
reached the side of a mountain stream, Lu Chen really could not walk anymore.
Looking at the little chicken that was still energetic and staring at him with bright eyes, Lu Chen admitted defeat.
Although it had been raining heavily the day before yesterday, the stream had regained its clarity after two days. However, the flow of the stream seemed to have increased significantly.
Lu Chen reached out his hand into the mountain stream. It was still as cold as before.
Not bad, not bad!
He took out the cold water that he had stored in his backpack and poured it into a small bottle. Then, he poured in some honeyed eggplant that had been pickled for a few days and mixed it with honey. He tightened it and shook it well.
Then, he tied the bottle with one end of the rope and tied the other end to the mountaineering bag. Then, he put the bottle into the stream.
Half an hour later, it was a bottle of iced special drink that could only be enjoyed here!
When the little Kakapo saw Lu Chen stop, it also stopped and pecked grass near Lu Chen.
However, even though it was eating, it still looked up at Lu Chen from time to time to see if he had sneaked away.
"No, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to frame me?”
Lu Chen noticed its little action and asked, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
[Research Institute of Birds Lu Qingqing: If you're wondering why this Kakapo has been following you, I think I can answer it.】
An eye-catching bullet screen that was officially verified floated past, and Lu Chen's eyes lit up.
Judging from the name format, he should be the same person in charge of the research institute as Director Qin Xin, right?
"Are you the bird specialist of the Xin Huo Special Team?”
Lu Chen asked excitedly.
[Lu Qingqing from the Bird Research Institute: I'm not an expert, but I'm indeed the director of the Bird Research Institute and participated in the Torch Flame Project.
Let's talk about the Kakapo that has been following you. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a primitive Kakapo.
The current man-reared Kakapo is far inferior to this one in terms of color and physical strength. Furthermore, your Kakapo's stripes are rather unique.】
"Yes, I think so too.”
Lu Chen nodded,"Although I study zoology, my main focus is still on mammals. I don't know much about birds.
When I saw this parrot just now, I was barely able to recognize it. The habits I explained to everyone were mostly from books. I hope Director Lu can explain more and help me clear my doubts.”
"
This young comrade is quite polite.”
In the office of Xin Huo's special team, Lu Qingqing couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Of course. I told you that this young man is really not bad. When he finishes filming this documentary, we will definitely invite him to our place.”
"But why don't you explain to him why this little Kakapo keeps following him?" Qin Xin said with a smile.”
"Yes."
Lu Qingqing nodded and started typing on the computer.
[Animal Research Institute Lu Qingqing: Of course.
You should know that the Kakapo is a bird that is not afraid of humans.】
"Yes, I've heard a little about it.”
Lu Chen nodded,"Even if they are hunted by humans, they will take the initiative to show goodwill when they see humans.”
[Animal Research Institute Lu Qingqing: That's right.
I once had the honor of going to the Seyland Islands to investigate the living habits of real kakapo. At that time, I discovered that they would repay the kindness shown by humans with great enthusiasm.
For example, if a Kakapo was fed its favorite food, it would become very close to people and would even be willing to jump on people's bodies to be touched.】
Lu
Chen thought for a moment, and as if he had thought of something, he asked in disbelief,
"Is it because I just caught it falling from the tree?"”
[Animal Research Institute's Lu Qingqing: I think it's possible.
Although the Kakapo's feathers were very thick, and they could flap their wings to cushion their fall, and the areas where they lived had thick fallen leaves, they usually did not die from falling, but there were still cases of injuries.
You just caught it and hugged it for a long time. It might think that you're its benefactor.
But this is only one possibility. I think the other possibility is more likely.】
"What possibility?"
Lu Chen asked subconsciously.
[Animal Research Institute, Lu Qingqing: The sex ratio of the kakapo is relatively unbalanced. There are more females and fewer males, so it is a very typical polygamous animal.
During the breeding season, the males would set up a place similar to the "consort selection", and they would call out loudly to attract nearby females to come and "run".
The selected female Kakapo could temporarily live in a group with the male Kakapo, while the females who were not selected would continue to be alone.
Fortunately, wild Kakapo had a long lifespan, usually up to several decades. Therefore, if they were not selected this year, they could still choose next year.
However, because of this special way of choosing a spouse, it often made a fool of itself.
"Female Kakapo, who hasn't been chosen by a male for many years, will take the initiative to pursue other species of birds and humans. There have been such cases before…
" Lu Qingqing suppressed her laughter and typed out her conclusion word by word,
"So, I think that this female Kakapo has been following you because she likes you and mistakenly thinks that you are a male that she can pursue.】
？？？
Lu Chen was dumbfounded.
This was the first time in his life that he was being pursued by an old bird?？？
I can't live like this anymore.

The picture attached to this chapter is an emoticon that has nothing to do with the main text. There's no other meaning. I just feel that it's very similar to me who's being urged to update. It's too vivid.]。。
Finally, I'm asking for some fancy votes to show the big shots! Good night!]
