The autumn bug flew into the window like a flying line. The little bug standing at the top of the stairs still had his mouth open, maintaining the state of "surprise of finally discovering human beings", staring at the man upstairs with his round golden eyes.

Hearing his elder brother's movements, he quickly turned his head, and his tape recorder-like voice was full of joy, "Big brother, big brother! Human beings! Bang, bang, bang!"

Arlo Shen sorted out the order of these sentences, nodded slightly perfunctorily and said while flying upstairs, "Yeah, you are the best, you are the best."

As he finished speaking, he saw the person leaning on the railing on the second floor.

It was an old man wearing a gray sweater. Her wrinkled face and gray hair told of her age.

At this time, she was obviously a little startled by the two mynahs that suddenly broke into her house.

He looked at the myna in front of him with surprised eyes, and then looked at the person downstairs, probably marveling at the content of their chat.

Arlo Shen has been an animal for several lifetimes. He knows that not everyone's ability to accept is so good, so he is not ready to say anything. He flies around the old man and makes sure that the other person is not seriously injured, then glances at the old man's arms. He didn't care about the jar he was holding.

He turned around and flew downstairs again. Looking at the myna who was very happy after being praised by her elder brother, she opened her mouth and then thought of something, her little head tilted.

"May I have your name?"

The little bug's furry face visibly slumped.

Somewhat aggrieved, those eyes seemed to be able to speak, accusing him: The eldest brother can't remember the name of the younger brother, I am still not your dearest younger brother!

Arlo Shen turned around with a guilty conscience, what, who made him the half-way eldest brother? He really had no memory of the past.

The eldest brother didn't speak. The little starling looked at his eldest brother for a while, then opened and closed his bright yellow mouth and said, "My name is Egg, my name is Egg."

For some reason, Arlo Shen always felt that he could hear sadness in this voice.

But there was no time to think too much, after all, there were still people upstairs waiting for rescue.

Glancing at the egg yolk on Fang Jian's mouth, he thought that the name was really right, and said, "Egg, you watch this grandma here, while the big brother goes out to find someone."

In case the egg couldn't understand it, he said it again in bird language.

Egg felt aggrieved and said obediently that he understood.

So good, much more obedient and sensible than the younger brother he met before.

Arlo Shen happily stepped forward and patted Egg's little head with her wings, then flapped her wings and left quickly.

He was going to find the group of People's Liberation Army soldiers he met before.

But it was a coincidence that as soon as he flew out of this residential area, he saw Flynn Yan and others on the road outside who were about to escort the trapped people away.

He quickly hovered in mid-air, opened his mouth and shouted, "Monitor monitor! There is a grandma upstairs!"

It would be easier if he was an acquaintance, and he didn't have to think about how to convince others that he was not talking nonsense.

A familiar tone came from mid-air, and Flynn Yan immediately looked up.

When I saw the hovering Starling and heard his words again, my brows jumped, but this time I didn’t hesitate again. Instead, he directly transferred the people on his assault boat to other kayaks, and then called Xiaoliu.

"You take the kayakers to the resettlement site first, and then come here to join me!"

After saying that, he waved to the little starling high in the sky.

"Little Bugs, please lead the way!"

After receiving the signal, Qiu Bugao circled in the sky and flew like a residential area on the left.

The trapped people are on the top floor of the eighth floor. The entrance downstairs has been flooded. Fortunately, the depth is only up to the neck, so people can still go up from the downstairs.

After tying the assault boat to the security window on the first floor, Flynn Yan and Xiao Liu jumped into the water wearing life jackets.

Both of them are over 175cm tall. Although walking in the water is difficult, they are quite comfortable.

Arlo Shen watched them enter the corridor and then flew up to the eighth floor.

He jumped into the window and saw that the egg was no longer at the top of the stairs. He frowned and opened the locked door first. The little bug jumped on the door handle and jumped down hard, and the door lock was successfully opened.

He was already familiar with things like opening doors and locking them. Then he flew up to the second floor and saw an egg guarding a door.

Hearing the sound of flapping wings, Egg turned around and saw his eldest brother stomping over excitedly, "Big brother is here!"

Arlo Shen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the person was gone.

Thinking of Flynn Yan and the two who were climbing the stairs, Arlo Shen walked to the door, knocked on the door with his sharp mouth, deliberately pinched his throat, and imitated the tone of a child's voice and shouted: "Grandma, open the door quickly, I'll find the fireman to save you." La..."

After saying that, Arlo Shen shivered first, then turned around and saw Egg looking shocked, and felt even more embarrassed.

The clip sound and other things are really difficult to deal with.

But everything is to save people! Arlo Shen hypnotized herself.

There are so many clip sounds, but not one more little starling.

Thinking about it, he shouted into the house without any psychological burden, "Grandma, open the door. If you don't open the door, the flood will come..."

Egg stared at his eldest brother silently for a minute, then decided to shout together with him.

However, Egg is still a little starling who has only learned human speech for a short time, and the clipping sound he makes is far less natural than that of his elder brother.

The difference is probably that one is that the tape recorder is perfect, and the other is that the tape recorder is more broken.

Arlo Shen is obviously the one in front.

When Flynn Yan and Xiao Liu arrived in a hurry, what they heard were these two very different clip sounds, one saying one sentence and the other shouting.

Following the sound they found the attic, and the scene in front of them made them dumbfounded.

Two small starlings are standing on the left and right, you say something...

"Grandma, please open the door." I said, "I know you are inside, please open the door."

Then the bright yellow beaks all hit the door panel.

It makes a heavy "dong dong" sound.

Xiaoliu's young mind is more active. Even if he is exhausted from being busy with rescue operations all day long, he can still blurt out at this time: "I know you are at home, so don't hide in there and keep silent." 1

His voice was so low that only Flynn Yan could hear him. He stared at his comrade who had only joined the team for a month, dumbfounded, and was about to walk over and knock on the door.

I saw the door was opened from the inside.

Probably because he was annoyed by the sound of the door opening one after another, the door opened angrily.

Flynn Yan stopped for a moment, and saw an old woman with a hunched back standing at the door. She couldn't tell whether she was angry or helpless, looking at the two little mynahs at her feet, "I said, two little guys, can you?" Stop knocking, I don't want to leave."

Egg tilted his head, not understanding, so he took a step back and stood behind his elder brother.

Brother Qiu blinked and took a step back, "But it's too late, the fireman uncle is already here..." Oops, it's been clamped for too long, and I can't change it back at once.

He coughed twice quickly, regained his normal voice, and shouted to Flynn Yan, "Squad leader, the trapped people are here!"

Grandma also saw the two firefighters, frowned, and stepped back warily as if she was about to close the door again. Flynn Yan quickly went over to block the door.

"Grandma, if you have any problems, you can tell us first, and we will solve them if we can. But now that the old city is completely flooded, and there is no water or power supply, you will definitely not be able to continue living here."

"And the weather forecast is for a heavy rain tomorrow. It's unknown whether the house will be damaged by then, so evacuating now is the best choice."

The old man lowered his head. After listening to Flynn Yan's words, he just shook his head and hugged the jar in his arms tighter.

"Don't waste your time on me, I won't leave. Go save others."

Flynn Yan frowned, a little confused, "Grandma, you..."

He was about to persuade her, but the old lady said again, "I want to stay with my wife at home. No matter what you say, I won't leave."

Arlo Shen noticed the jar in her arms, her eyes flashed and she had a guess in her mind.

Qing Mimi poked her head into the crack of the door, and sure enough she saw a black and white photo placed on a chest of drawers.

Over there, Flynn Yan also guessed something from the old man's words, and asked Xiao Liu to contact the old man's family while persuading him.

Arlo Shen stepped out from the crack in the door and said in an ignorant tone, "Just take your wife with you!"

Flynn Yan also picked up immediately, "Yes, our assault boat is downstairs. I will be responsible for taking grandma out, and grandpa will leave it to my comrades. I promise to take you out safe and sound."

Flynn Yan, who was wearing an orange firefighting suit, was extremely sincere when he said these words, which naturally made people feel trustworthy.

But the old lady still shook her head.

"No, the old man has been suffering for half his life. I don't want his ashes to experience a flood after his death."

"Besides...this jar contains my old man, and it has nothing to do with you young people. I don't want to cause trouble for you, so just let me stay here alone. The flood won't reach it yet." Come to the eighth floor."

After the old man finished speaking, he closed the door again.

Flynn Yan has encountered many stubborn old men like this. Generally speaking, he would find the old man's family members to persuade him, but there was no result from Xiaoliu's side, so he could only continue to block the door.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to persuade, the myna at his feet suddenly flapped its wings and flew to his shoulder.

The bright yellow mouth opened and closed, and the tape recorder became active again, "Grandma cares about my wife, but she doesn't care about us..."

"Look at the little firefighter over there, he's only eighteen years old! He has overcome all kinds of difficulties and dangers to save grandma, can grandma have the heart to reject him?"

Xiao Liu, who was on the phone not far away, turned back in confusion.

Grandma's eyes fell on his young face, something flashed across her eyes, and she lowered her head, "So you don't have to save me, and the little warrior doesn't have to overcome all kinds of difficulties and dangers."

The little bug on the shoulder tilted his head, as if wondering, "But they are already here, and they will definitely not leave unless grandma leaves. I haven't seen them drink water or eat anything since I was rescued by them in the morning. They are guarding you." You have to be hungry all the time. If you are hungry, you will easily lose strength. If you have no strength, you will easily get into trouble. If you don't have the strength to save people again..."

Qiu Bugao let out a loud "wow" sound.

"Then what will we do then?"

After saying that, his golden eyes blinked, as if he was really asking the old lady for a solution.

The old lady's originally expressionless face suddenly felt a little helpless when she was told.

"I said, is your little myna... really a myna?"

He looked at Flynn Yan again, "Isn't it some kind of robot you made?"

Flynn Yan was also surprised by the little guy's series of words. He was thinking about whether Bago can speak so fluently?

Hearing what the old lady said, his thinking was interrupted and he quickly continued to persuade.

"Of course this is a real myna. You see, the little animal can follow you and persuade you. Just come with us. We promise not to..."

Before he finished speaking, a surprised voice came from Xiaoliu's side.

"Squad leader, we have contacted the old man's family!"

Then hand over the satellite phone.

The old man's expression suddenly became hesitant.

Arlo Shen looked at it and suddenly spread his wings and flew outside.
