Don't follow the rules

Chapter 487: Haojiu Home Furnishing City (Sixty-three)
The two drowned chickens leaned against each other exhausted, watching with lingering fear the abandoned chicken coop that collapsed behind them.

At the same time, the two of them had just rushed out of the fire in the thick smoke when the fragile chicken coop immediately fell apart, burying everything inside.

"That was a close call..." Yingying patted her chest.

"It actually worked?" An Han couldn't believe it.

Yingying tilted her head: "Why don't you look very happy?"

An Han calmed himself down and said, "Of course I'm happy to have escaped death, but I'm more shocked than happy."

"How could we get through this dead end so easily? We didn't even make too much effort, as if it was fate and luck that saved us. But according to normal logic, the arsonist behind the scenes would never allow the fire sprinklers in our chicken coop to operate normally."

"And I don't think this fire is just a warning from the person behind the scenes, because for the two of us turkeys, it's not worth the trouble. Compared to burning down the chicken coop on the entire farm, killing us directly and starting over is the simplest and most effective warning."

Yingying shook the water off the feathers and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. Think positively. Since we were able to escape, it might be just an accident and not arson."

"This must have been arson."

"Are you so sure?"

An Han sneered: "How about you find me a fire source that can cause this fully electric and automated closed farm to catch fire accidentally? Mind you, it has to burn from all directions toward the center, and it has to burn fiercely and quickly."

The sound of whimpering gradually faded: "Okay, let's just regard it as man-made...but, so what?"

An Han's eyes lit up: "So what? That means something has begun to escape the control of the person behind the scenes, which means we have room to resist."

"Although I still don't understand what happened, it is obvious that the control of the people behind the scenes over the farm has weakened. So now is the best time for us to fight!"

Yingying was so encouraged that she flapped her wet wings: "Fight! Fight!"

"Calm down first." An Han suppressed the excited sobbing.

Yingying pushed him away and rushed to the front yard with high morale: "We should kill him while he's sick. Why are you still calming down? We should strike while the iron is hot!"

An Han followed with difficulty: "Sister...sister, you can't even find him now, whose life can you take?"

Squeak - Squeak
Yingying emergency brake.

She lifted her wings and touched the back of her head: "Yeah, you keep talking about the person behind the scenes, who is that person and where is he?"

The strange fire in the chicken coop came quickly and went out even faster, as if someone had pressed the fast-forward button. With the help of the fire sprinklers, the fire was quickly brought under control and was completely extinguished in a short time. Except for the abandoned chicken coop that exploded in the innermost part, most of the chicken coops and sheds only suffered minor injuries.

But the turkey flock suffered heavy losses. The turkeys that did not have the correct awareness of escape were weighed down by their thick feathers, and many were burned to death or hit to death.

The surviving turkeys seemed to be showing some signs of awakening in their chirping.

"It's really scary, why did it suddenly catch fire?"

"Why are they all so busy and jumping around? Why don't they run outside even though their butts are on fire? Isn't the pond big enough for them to use?"

"That's right, you have no common sense at all. You dare to fly into the chicken flock when it's on fire. You will really hurt the chickens."

"madness."

"madness!"

"They should be made to memorize the team rules!"

"That's right!"

"Wait, what are the team rules?" "Huh?"

The chirping turkeys looked at each other in confusion: "What are the team rules?"

The turkey who blurted out the word "team rules" squinted his eyes and tilted his head, as if he was trapped in some vortex of memory. He could vaguely touch some clear settings, but could not really grasp them.

"What are the team rules?" he also asked.

"Didn't you say that yourself? How dare you ask us?" The turkey next to him pecked him hard in anger.

"I... I can't explain it clearly. All the words came out too quickly." He also felt aggrieved.

"Nothing!" The grumpy turkey next to him nagged him again.

He covered his buttocks: "Stop pecking, it hurts."

The hot-tempered turkey refused to give in: "Why are you running? Why didn't you dodge when the captain kicked you?"

"What captain?"

"Huh?"

The two turkeys were stunned for a moment.

"Did we forget something?"

goo~ goo~
"I'm hungry." said a turkey, raising his wings.

The other turkeys also echoed: "Yes, yes, after all this trouble, it's time to eat."

When it comes to eating, all the listless turkeys suddenly become energetic. Their claws make a clattering sound on the ground. They push and shove each other to the farm gate, looking forward to the "God" who will "spread the gospel" for them.

Yingying and Anhan blended in quietly.

"If that man opens the door and sees the burned chicken coop, his face will definitely be very interesting, don't you think?" The whimpering voice could not hide the gloating, and her face showed an expression of watching a show.

An Han followed Yingying's footsteps without saying anything, just lowered his head in thought.

But Yingying would not let go of this rare opportunity to talk. She raised her paw and grabbed Anhan's neck: "Don't act so cool. Answer me, you little bastard."

An Han was helpless: "...Ahem, let go first. If I tell him, maybe that man won't come again?"

"How is that possible? What will we eat if he doesn't come? Don't joke with me, brother. I'm really hungry now." Yingying was surprised.

"The chicken coop fire was no small matter. As the farm manager, he should have arrived at the scene immediately to put out the fire, but he didn't show up. Not to mention that he didn't know, the thick smoke alone was enough for people several miles away to see. But in fact, from the time the fire started to the time it was put out, the man didn't show up. This doesn't make sense - I can only speculate that he couldn't show up."

Yingying thought hard: "What does that mean? How is it possible that... I can't show up?"

"Maybe it has something to do with our rescue."

"What does it matter?"

An Han thought thoughtfully: "Although that man is not the real person behind the scenes, he is a symbol. His existence should indicate the degree of control the person behind the scenes has over the farm. The weaker the control the person behind the scenes has over the farm, the farther that man is from the farm."

"For example, right now, we have miraculously escaped death, most likely because this man has left the farm."

"Where did he go? Will he still bring us food?" Yingying asked. She looked worried for a rare moment.

"I don't know, and it doesn't matter. I just know that we should be able to get out."
