Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl Chapter 61 – Chapter 61 Chapter 61 Calm down Sister Bear just say what you

Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Calm down, Sister Bear, just say what you want Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Calm down, Sister Bear, just say what you want Yin Li and Chen Ying stood side by side, with Little Sen behind them.

Chen Ying didn't speak, he gestured to Little Sen to get away quickly.

Climbing a tree was out of the question; the Asian black bear was also an expert at climbing trees.

Now it was all about which side the black bear found less pleasing to the eye.

The street rat stood up on its hind legs, leaning against a tree. It glanced at the wary mother bear, then at Chen Ying, its eyes whirling around before it unexpectedly turned tail and ran.

“This damned black bear is bewitched,” Yin Li cursed silently, his muscles tensed, ready for action.

Chen Ying did the same, but he noticed a distinct difference. After the street rat left, the mother bear seemed to be less angry.

The mother bear sat down on the spot, facing them, completely flabbergasting the three humans.

What on earth do you want, black bear? Could you please speak up? Your silence is making us very anxious, you know?

After thinking for a moment, Chen Ying gathered his courage and took a step forward, carefully observing and discovering a wound on the mother bear's body.

The wound was on the right front paw, with a clearly visible quarter missing. This kind of injury was obviously left by an animal trap.

Chen Ying's heart sank, and he looked up.

However, what confused him was that he didn't see hatred for humans in the mother bear's expression, only curiosity and friendliness.

It was well-known that black bears didn't have good eyesight, earning them the nickname “black blind man”, but their hearing and sense of smell were incredibly sharp.

The mother black bear was no exception, so it was impossible that she was unaware of the presence of humans.

But knowing there were humans around and not attacking was quite interesting.

Relying on his strong affinity with animals, Chen Ying took out the bear's favorite fruit from his backpack, skewered it on a stick, and slowly approached the mother bear, extending his hand in an attempt to offer her the fruit.

The mother bear leaned in to sniff the fruit, her eyes lighting up noticeably, and, unceremoniously, grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth, chomping away contentedly.

Chen Ying saw his chance and took two more steps forward, pausing to observe.

The mother black bear hesitated only for a moment and then continued showing off.

Chen Ying led with more fruit, and the mother bear kept showing off.

Like that, he managed to get within an arm's reach of the mother bear and tentatively reached out to touch the fur on her forelimb.

The black bear grunted twice, turning its big face away, not allowing Chen Ying to touch it but not resisting his approach either.

After observing more closely, Chen Ying didn't notice any significant wounds on the bear's abdomen and breathed a sigh of relief.

It likely wasn't a “bear bile” bear that had been rescued.

Moving to the other side, Chen Ying carefully examined the injured front paw of the black bear.

The index finger and the one next to it were gone, with diagonal cuts—likely results of being caught and torn off by an animal trap.

That must have been terribly painful!

Fortunately, the remaining fingers and the other paw could still perform actions like climbing trees and picking food.

“Ali, when we get back, check the infrared cameras to confirm this black bear's movement patterns. Its right front paw has been injured, presumably by an animal trap,” Chen Ying said.

Chen Ying took a photo of the black bear's injured paw, his eyes gleaming with the opportunity of the black bear showing off happily, he daringly smoothed its fur, and managed to put a tracking collar on it.

Watching Chen Ying's insane move, Yin Li and Little Sen were petrified with fear.

Especially Little Sen; he was so stiff he couldn't even wrap his mind around what was happening—all he could think was: Brother Ying, you are extraordinary!

The mother black bear grew a bit impatient and shook its head, but Chen Ying quickly stuffed another piece of fruit into its mouth, which calmed her instantly.

Once he had adjusted the collar, he took out a stainless steel bowl and a bottle of honey from his backpack.

He poured half a bottle of honey into the bowl, added some dried meat for the black bear to gnaw on, took a selfie, and then quickly packed up and left.

What awaited him were Yin Li's fist and Little Sen's adoring gaze.

Rubbing his shoulder, sore from Yin Li's punch, Chen Ying chuckled and pleaded for mercy.

“It's a rare opportunity. This mother bear is exceptionally gentle, and it's been almost two years since our center has seen a black bear with cubs. Putting a collar on her could help the black bear research team with their study.”

Yin Li remained silent, his face stern, giving Chen not the slightest smile.

Chen Ying shrugged at Little Sen, gesturing for him to help plead his case.

Little Sen shook his head vehemently and quickly caught up with Yin Li.

He didn't want any part of it. Brother Ying had been too reckless today. If that mother black bear had been the slightest bit fiercer, they would have had to collect Brother Ying's body.

Even if they called you “Druid,” you're definitely not a druid; you're so daring, why aren't you the Huanan Tiger?

Since they had achieved their goal for going up the mountain, they didn't need to keep watch over the mother black bear anymore. They retreated to the Stone Beach Area, found a suitable place to camp, and Yin Li called Director Bai directly.

Yes, he was snitching, and he'd do it to his face!

Chen Ying sat down in agony, resigned to being scolded.

Director Bai's scolding wasn't enough. As soon as the call ended, Professor Bai's call came in.

Professor Bai never rudely scolded anyone. He would just use all kinds of passive-aggressive comments that made you ache all over but couldn't pinpoint where it hurt the most.

The berating lasted an hour. After hanging up, Chen Ying was completely drained, lying on a big rock, looking as though his soul had parted from his body.

Little Sen watched, wanting to laugh but not daring to make a sound. He could only shrug his shoulders behind Chen Ying's back while tending to the fire.

Glancing up unintentionally, he was stunned.

“Brother Ying, Brother Ying, look across, is that the Street Rat that's come by?”

Chen Ying and Yin Li instantly became alert, especially Yin Li, who even reached for his tranquilizer gun.

The street rat across from them watched them for a while, then trotted off in another direction.

“I really want to put a collar on this black bear… to see what it does all day.”

Little Sen relaxed his shoulders and complained.

“True to its name, the Street Rat, never doing anything proper.”

Chen Ying, observing the Street Rat black bear through binoculars, chuckled and chipped in, “What productive thing could it possibly do? Just eating, drinking, and strolling, right?”

“That's true. Alas, bears have it better than humans. I wish I could just eat, drink, and stroll around too.”

“Maybe in your next life, remember to choose the path of an animal when you're being reborn.”

Little Sen fell silent for a moment, then looked up solemnly, “Brother Ying, are you implying something about me?”

Yin Li couldn't hold back his laughter, his stomach aching from it.

The next morning, at 5:30, the three cooked up some instant noodles. After eating and cleaning up, taking all their trash with them, they prepared to descend the mountain.

But just twenty meters into the forest, they again encountered the mother black bear.

This time, the mother black bear ambled leisurely towards them, sat down with a plop, and started to pick at her toes.

(Haha, delivery has arrived.)
After waiting a while and seeing that the black bear didn't seem to want to leave, they slowly retreated, planning to bypass the area and descend the mountain along the Stone Beach.

The mother black bear's ears twitched as she sensed the humans' presence moving away and became a bit anxious. She got up, ran a few steps forward, and bit Yin Li's clothes with her mouth.

After sniffing, she realized it wasn't the person from yesterday.

She looked up, confused, let go of Yin Li, and pounced toward Chen Ying.

“Umm, umm.”

Chen Ying looked bewildered as the bear sniffed up and down on him, her expression growing more desperate.

He tentatively reached out to stroke the bear's head.

“Sister Bear, what are you looking for? Say something, will you?”
