Chapter 377: Chapter 275: The Mind of This Person_1

Feng Yi hadn’t been in the mountains long when the people from the documentary film crew found the monitoring station and showed their ID to inquire with the staff.

"A young man taking care of the cemetery? Are you sure he’s with our station?" The staff member scratched his head, unable to match the description.

There were no very young people in their station; occasionally, they might have young interns, but currently, there were none.

Moreover, the people at their monitoring station responsible for caring for the cemetery were all over fifty, which didn’t match the information provided by the film crew.

The film crew then said, "He looked to be in his twenties. I’m certain he’s with your monitoring station, he was wearing the same uniform as you. Just the day before yesterday, we came up the mountain to scout locations and saw him tending to the cemetery."

A staff member nearby, upon hearing this, interrupted, "Could you be talking about Feng Yi? When he returned from outside the night before last, he had some dust and grass on him, and I even jokingly asked if he had been rolling around outside; he told me he went to take care of the cemetery."

"Yes, yes, around dusk at that time! The one you’re talking about... Feng Yi?!!"

When they heard the name, the film crew’s eyebrows shot up in excitement, and they eagerly asked:

"Are... are you talking about that Feng Yi who’s really popular on the internet? Him?"

While saying this, the film crew pulled out a photograph of Feng Yi.

The station staff member, who wasn’t too engaged with social media, looked at Feng Yi’s photo, nodded, and said, "That’s him. I don’t know how famous he is online, but he definitely came here."

"Came here??" The crew couldn’t help but raise their voices, "You mean he’s not here now?"

"Yeah, he set off early in the morning," said the staff member.

"Where to?" the crew asked, thinking about whether they could still catch him.

The staff member pointed in the direction of the mountain range, "He’s gone back into the mountains again."

The film crew: "..."

They returned to their accommodation feeling conflicted and carefully reviewed the video footage they shot the day before yesterday.

After coming back that day, they hadn’t had much time to review the footage, and with the multitude of tasks over the past two days, they hadn’t found the time to revisit it.

Now, knowing that the person they captured on film could be Feng Yi, they all widened their eyes and searched meticulously.

Playing the video in slow motion, everyone watched intently until they finally spotted a brief profile of a face.

The video paused, and after enlarging the image, they confirmed it was Feng Yi!

They hadn’t recognized him during the shoot because they were at a distance and focused on the overall scene rather than this person’s face, and their first impression had firmly been that of a station staff member; they’d never considered it could be an internet celebrity!

If they hadn’t confirmed with the monitoring station, they might have just assumed it was someone who looked a lot like Feng Yi upon review.

They checked the latest updates on Feng Yi’s social media.

No doubt about it, Feng Yi had been here!

Once identity was confirmed, the person who was on site filming the evening before last covered their face in agony.

"It was really him in person!"

"What have I missed!!!!"

They beat their chests and stomped their feet in regret!

It was as if they had missed out on millions!

"If we had known it was him, we would have rushed to interview him even if it was the middle of the night!"

"Yeah, such a pity!"

At the North Mountain Monitoring Station, the staff members were also talking about Feng Yi.

They felt quite sorry for him.

Although it wasn’t a particularly prestigious film crew, appearing on television was still a great opportunity!

Captain Wen also heard their casual chatter but didn’t take it seriously.

With Feng Yi’s current popularity, did he need this?

If he were in the entertainment industry, that might indeed have been a chance not to miss, but that kid’s ambitions lay elsewhere.

Looking toward the mountains, Captain Wen sighed once again.

It so happened that a researcher leading students to collect specimens near the mountains met with Captain Wen, who found one of them.

"Teacher Mu, you’ve done quite some research on giant pandas; I have a question that’s been bothering me, and I’d like to ask for your help," said Captain Wen.

Teacher Mu was about the same age as Captain Wen and had collaborated with him before, so the exchange was not unfamiliar.

Teacher Mu perked up upon hearing Captain Wen’s request.

Though the patrol team members weren’t specialists in any particular animal, they definitely had a good understanding of giant pandas.

For a patrol team captain to ask such a puzzled question implied it was uncommon!

Teacher Mu promptly replied, "Sure, go ahead."

Captain Wen said, "I’ll describe the situation to you, and you help me figure out what the giant panda was trying to convey with that sound."

He couldn’t quite remember the dream he had the night before last, but it strangely occupied his mind.

Because it kept coming back to him, he did remember some blurry images, like Feng Yi competing with the panda for bamboo shoots.

And then there was that "ang ying" sound. It was hauntingly vivid.

It was clear that reality had interfered with his dreams.

Captain Wen revisited the memory of encountering the wild giant panda in the bamboo forest.

It was his first time hearing a wild giant panda make such a sound.

It even carried through into his dreams.

He detailed the encounter to Teacher Mu, which was quite simple and could be explained in a few sentences.

However, when Captain Wen imitated the "ang ying" sound, he was met with the same puzzled expression from Professor Mu.

After a moment of silence, Teacher Mu asked, "Are you sure the panda you encountered was an adult?"

Captain Wen: "I’m certain."

Teacher Mu said, "Then, are you... sure you imitated it accurately?"

Confidently, Captain Wen replied, "Absolutely! If you don’t believe me, I can call over the other two members of my team who were there at the time."
