Chapter 125 The Unexpected Bird
Zhao Jia was in school on Thursday afternoon.

On the podium, the teacher was excited and eloquent, constantly beating on the blackboard to explain the knowledge points.

"Jingle Bell……"

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, the students immediately became agitated and couldn't wait to go out for activities.

However, the teacher lowered his glasses and said loudly: "Wait another 2 minutes! Wait until I finish this question!"

The turmoil of the students had to be endured for the time being, and when the teacher finished the lecture, they immediately started making noise.

Some called the teacher to ask questions that they didn’t understand, some went straight to the bathroom, some were so sleepy that they kept dozing off during class, and even fell asleep on the table after class.

Two good friends, Zhao Jia and Zhao Dapeng, naturally got together and stood in front of the windowsill in the corridor to chat. Zhao Dapeng looked at the rain curtain outside, and complained a little depressingly: "Why is it raining so hard, why don't you stop classes?"

Zhao Jia comforted, "Hey, think about it, at least you don't have to go out and do exercises between classes, don't you?"

Zhao Dapeng laughed happily: "Yes."

This is probably the only reason to look forward to rain when I was a student!

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the corridor. There was noise and shouting in the distance, and people kept running over there.

The two looked at each other, what's wrong?What happened?

I couldn't help looking over there, and suddenly saw a boy in the class who was going to the toilet rushing towards the class non-stop, as if he had come back to report the news.

Zhao Jia stretched out his hand to stop him, and asked curiously, "Xiao Qiang, what's going on?"

Xiao Qiang's eyes were wide open, and he made two circles around his eyes with his hands, exaggerated his expression, and said very excitedly: "There is an owl in the water room!"

For these students, finding a bee flying in or a mouse scurrying in a classroom can make them scream for a long time, let alone an owl!

After Xiao Qiang finished speaking, he rushed into the classroom and shouted loudly: "There is an owl in the water room!"

"real or fake?"

The girls were still relatively reserved, but the boys cheered up after hearing the words, and ran to the water room to watch the fun.

Zhao Jia and Zhao Dapeng were more interested in animals than others, so they ran over tacitly!
At this time, many students had gathered around the water room, and they were talking excitedly and curiously: "I haven't seen an owl yet."

"Is anyone from our school going to Hogwarts?"

"Damn it, they must have come to send me a letter! Brothers, make room, I want to get the admission letter!"

"To tell you the truth, I'm actually a wizard! My mother said that he just greeted Dumbledore the day before yesterday, and the owl should arrive today." A student and a friend said so eloquently, almost even I believe it myself.

The owl is a kind of mysterious and strange bird to most people!
Because of its mystery, owls are associated with many stories and legends. For example, in the famous "Harry Potter", they are active as messengers for wizards to send letters.

From the excitement of the students, you can tell how charming the owl is in their hearts.

Zhao Jia and Zhao Dapeng also wanted to see what the owl looked like, but the entrance of the water room was surrounded so tight that it was impossible to get through.

At this time, Lao Bai, the head teacher of their class, also got the news and rushed over, maintaining order with a stern voice: "What are you doing? Don't surround yourself here! Spread out, spread out, and do what you should do!"

A student with messy hair was not reconciled to losing the opportunity at Hogwarts, and wanted to struggle to stay: "Mr. Bai, the owl in the water room is sending me a letter!"

Old Bai stared at him, took the textbook and tapped him on the head: "Send you a big-headed ghost, you like to read extracurricular books, so you leave less homework, right?"

Apparently knows this one too.

Lao Bai was mainly worried that if any student was scratched by an owl and injured, it would be troublesome.

"Go, go, get out!"

Under his stern reprimand and the threat of homework, the students dispersed angrily, but they still surrounded them from a distance.

I originally planned to watch the follow-up, but at this time the "Dinglingling" bell rang for class, so I could only reluctantly run back to the class.

Zhao Jia tugged at Zhao Dapeng, motioning him to come forward with him, wouldn't this be a good opportunity to see owls?

Zhao Dapeng was a little worried, and said cautiously: "You are not afraid of being scolded by Lao Bai."

He is still very frightened!
Zhao Jia's eyes flickered with wit: "What are you afraid of, we can carry brother Qi Ming out."

Zhao Dapeng gave a thumbs up in admiration: "You are smart, Xiaoxin!"

He was very happy to have the opportunity to skip class.

The two entered the water room, and finally saw the appearance of the owl that made everyone excited just now.

I saw this owl huddled in the corner of the wall, the whole body was yellowish brown, drenched by the rain, looking pitiful.

At this time, the yellow eyes were opened like copper bells, staring at Lao Bai and the two vigilantly.

Even though it was wet by the rain, the feathers were clustered together, still bending over and shaking the body, trying to spread the wings to form a big ball, looking like a hedgehog not to be messed with, knocking the upper and lower beaks to make a loud sound "Click" sound.

Looking at the big round eyes of the owl, Zhao Dapeng couldn't help saying, "Wow, so cute! So cute!"

At this time, Lao Bai put the phone in front of his mouth, and whispered a voice, asking the biology teacher to come and take a look.

He doesn't know how to deal with this situation!

Anyway, you can't stay in the water room. If the students come in and out, shouldn't you catch them and throw them outside?

By the way, is this owl a protected animal?Do you want to call the police?Or call the fire department?

Worried, he found that there were still two students who hadn't left, so he raised his eyebrows and reprimanded impolitely: "You still don't go back after class is over, Zhao Dapeng, the class meeting just praised you for improving a little, isn't it a waste of praise."

"Ugh..."

Shocked by Lao Bai's gaze, Zhao Dapeng was at a loss for words, and quickly shrank behind Zhao Jia.

Seeing Lao Bai's gaze turned to him, Zhao Jia quickly raised his hand and said, "Teacher, we often go to Jiangzhou Zoo to play during holidays, and we know their director! There is also contact information!"

"Oh?"

Just as Lao Bai was about to utter a reprimand, he held back the words, the zoo is really perfect for solving this problem.

He hesitated for a moment: "That's fine, you can help me get in touch."

He glared at Zhao Dapeng again: "One person is enough! Why do you keep it, you don't want to go to class, do you?"

Zhao Dapeng said weakly: "Mr. Bai, this is your class..."

Lao Bai was at a loss for words for a while: "Then you go back and inform me that this class will be self-study first!"

Zhao Dapeng gave Zhao Jia a helpless look, didn't dare to say anything, and ran away in a hurry.

"Teacher Bai, lend me your phone!"

Zhao Jia borrowed Lao Bai's cell phone and logged into his QQ.

Although he has a mobile phone, he must not bring it to school, otherwise it will definitely be confiscated, and he will have to call his parents when the time comes.

Lao Li, the biology teacher, also came over at this time, and Lao Bai repeatedly waved: "Lao Li, how do you fix this?"

At this time, the owl was still staring, tapping its beak with a "tap", and blinking one side of the eye.

Lao Li took a look: "Hey, this hair is fried, it's stressful."

Lao Bai didn't understand, so he said, "Stress, what is stress?"

"Stress is a state of panic and tension when an animal finds danger. For example, if you are locked in a tiger cage and stay with a very ferocious tiger, you accidentally step on its tail. Then are you very scared?" Lao Li gave a vivid example.

Lao Bai imagined the scene of being in the same cage with the tiger, and subconsciously tightened his body: "So that's the case. Then what should we do, should we catch it and put it in a cardboard box?"

Lao Li shook his head and said: "I don't know much about this, but it should be better not to touch it. Let's get out first and give the owl a quiet and relaxing environment."

"Wait a minute, I'll take a picture first!"

Zhao Jia took a picture of the owl with a "click", and then they retreated together, closing the water room door by the way.

Lao Li was a little puzzled: "Why doesn't he go to class?"

Lao Bai explained: "Zhao Jia said that he has the contact information of the director of Jiangzhou Zoo, so let him get in touch and ask the zoo to help get this owl away."

"Oh! If there is a zoo to handle it, then there is no problem."

Lao Li's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Speaking of which, I also went to their zoo to play during the holidays. It was really good. Some students asked me after class. How about we give the school a suggestion, when will we organize students to To play? It will definitely increase their interest in learning biology."

Lao Bai frowned slightly, thinking, and didn't speak for a while.

And Zhao Jia was already typing.

"Brother Qi Ming!"

"An owl flew into our school."

"What should I do? Should I be arrested?"

After posting, I felt a little nervous, wondering if Qi Ming would be busy at this meeting, could he see it?

Qi Ming saw a message from Zhao Jia on QQ, and muttered, "Didn't you go to class today because it's raining?"

Only after seeing the message sent did I realize that it turned out that an owl flew in from the school and asked for help.

He now learns miscellaneous animal knowledge every day, and he also knows a little about owls.

Owl does not refer to a specific bird, but a general term for owl (xiāo)-shaped birds.

Raptors are the general term for falconiformes and owls. Many people think of bald eagles, golden eagles, vultures and other big birds when they mention raptors. Although owls have a pair of bulling The big eyes look cute, but they are actually birds of prey.

Looking at the photo, this owl has a yellow-brown body, thick black spots on its chest, obvious horizontal and vertical stripes on both sides of its abdomen, rusty brown wings, and long ear feather clusters with black edges on both sides of its eyes. It's like pricking up ears.

Although it was drenched by the rain, its appearance was a bit embarrassing, and its feathers were in pinches, but it was still recognizable, this guy was a horned owl!A widespread but rare species of owl.

Seeing its yellow eyes staring like copper bells, and its whole body exploding, I was quite frightened.

Generally speaking, for this kind of raptor trapped in a building, as long as it is not injured, open the window and let it fly away on its own.

But now that it was raining heavily outside, the eagle owl flew into the school obviously to avoid the rain, and it was impossible for it to fly out directly.The rain will not stop for a while, and there are so many people in the school, we still have to go to rescue a wave.

I might not be able to speak clearly when typing, but Qi Ming made a QQ voice!

Zhao Jia said in surprise, "I answered!"

Pass the phone to Lao Bai.

"Hello? Zhao Jia?"

"Ah, I'm his class teacher, surnamed Bai, Bai Peng!"

"Hello, Mr. Bai, I'm Qi Ming, the director of Jiangzhou Zoo. It's like this. This horned owl is very frightened now. Don't let anyone get close to it, so as not to irritate it."

"Well, it's in the water room now, and we've already exited!"

"Okay, just leave it alone and let it stay. You may hurt it if you scratch it, and you may get scratched yourself. Give us a place and we will go there."

"Hey, we are Jiangzhou No. [-] Middle School. Let me give you the phone number. You can call me when you arrive."

"Teacher Bai is polite." Qi Ming suddenly remembered that he was at school, and added: "By the way, can you remind the students to try not to be noisy around when get out of class is over, it may take us more than an hour in the past. .”

Lao Bai repeatedly agreed: "Hey, yes, yes."

Zhao Jia asked nervously, "How is it?"

"The headmaster said that they will come over later, let's leave it alone and don't make noise around." Lao Bai just wanted to return the phone to Zhao Jia, but suddenly remembered that the phone belonged to him, so he took it back and waved his hand, "Okay, You go back to your self-study."

Zhao Jia said urgently: "Old Bai, you asked me to quit QQ!"

Lao Bai sent Qi Ming his mobile phone number while shaking his head: "Who wants to see your chat records. Well, quit."

On the way back, Zhao Jia thought of the crowd of classmates who were watching and making noise just now, and felt that the owl was so pitiful.

It should have never been surrounded by so many terrifying two-legged beasts, and the psychological shadow must have broken through the sky...

After Qi Ming hung up the QQ voice, he also took action!

Call Xiao Zhang.

"Director, what's the matter?"

Qi Ming said succinctly: "Jiangzhou University flew in a horned owl, and we will set out to rescue it! Do you have clean towels? Take two with you."

"Ok!"

Xiao Zhang immediately became serious when he heard these words, quickly found two unused towels from the closet, put on his raincoat and ran out in a hurry.

Qi Ming called the security guard Lei Zhi again and asked him to be the driver.

When transporting raptors, you must have a transport box. Cover the box during transportation. The inside is dark and safe, which can reduce the stress response of raptors, and then cover with a layer of non-slip material. Organic matter such as hay or straw is easy to grow Aspergillus spores. So it is best to use a rug or towel.

I have never rescued birds before, and I have never prepared a raptor transport box, but it doesn't matter, there just happened to be some express cartons in the house that I used to buy books and snacks and haven't thrown them away yet.

Qi Ming estimated the eagle owl's height, and found a suitable one that was about half a meter tall, so that the eagle owl could stand and turn around naturally without flapping its wings, so as not to get injured.

There also needs to be ventilation holes on the top of the transport box, just poke it on the road with scissors.
