Sage Advice: 3]
Since I was born, there has never been a more scary moment than now.
I’m in danger of dying while having my hair pulled out alive.
If I were to just twist my neck cleanly and die, I would just trust my remaining brothers and sisters to resolve the issue and die in peace…
I checked the condition of the kennel as much as possible.
In a fairly large space that feels like a poultry farm, there are a lot of geese.
At this rate, wouldn’t the probability of me being selected be low if I just stayed still?
Still, just in case, I kept my distance from the door as much as possible.
As he waddled along, he tapped another goose’s beak or butt, and a nervous squeak came out, but he didn’t care.
I’m sorry, but please die for me. Still, shouldn’t the thinking goose live?
Of course, plucking a goose’s fur does not necessarily mean that it will die, but in fact most of it will survive…
In any case, I can’t have my fur ripped off. Even when I tap it with my beak, it looks so fluffy. I have no intention of ever tearing it down.
Elmeongmeong (Elena): Let’s go now!
Wolf Boy (Park Seung-yeop): Ready
There is tension. It’ll be okay. There are so many geese, and I’m even in the corner, so why bother looking for me?
A man with shaggy hair came in. As soon as I saw it, I honestly got a little annoyed.
Just pull your hair out! Don’t even think about plucking the goose’s fur! Even geese are cold in winter!
I put my butt in the corner as much as I could, grabbed another goose with its beak, and made it stand in front of me.
Sorry. friend. I believe you will protect me.
That was a mistake.
“It’s pretty sweet!!!!!!!”
As the thunderous sound of geese rang out, the farmer’s eyes, which were looking around, immediately fell on me.
“What is that?”
“I saw it a while ago, and it bit the child in front of it.”
“Huh, he’s a guy with bad mouth habits. Peter, take note.
If you leave a guy like that alone, he will fight among himself in the kennel and get hurt and cause trouble.
Things like that need to be weeded out. got it?”
“yes. “I will catch it.”
I couldn’t understand everything that was said.
But, I realized it when I saw the boy in front of me walking in a straight line, looking at me openly.
It’s ruined. I tried to talk to him because I thought he was suffocating, but there was no response.
Oh, I guess all conversation volume has been exhausted. There really is no way now.
Eventually, the boy’s firm hands grabbed my body, lifted it up, and pushed it into a wooden box.
I’m going to die having my hair pulled out here. Even at first glance, it sounds like ‘weeding out?’ It’s not just about having your hair pulled out, you might even die.
Is the end of No. 103 a goose trip?
At the moment when I was gripped by indescribable despair, salvation appeared.
Wow! Wow! Wow Walwal! Awwwwwwwww!!!!!!!
A dog barking like crazy, a wolf howling.
As the situation became so clear, the farm family’s expressions suddenly changed and they immediately ran outside, forgetting about the geese.
“Peter!!!!!!! Go into your room! Don’t let May come out of the room. Amy! My gun!!!!!!”
“I’ll carry it! “You be careful!”
“Hmph, it looks like one or two lone wolves. I’m going to punish them today!”
I feel like crying. Maybe Elena and Seungyeop worked together?
For now, I lived. But… it’s in a box anyway, so does it have any meaning?
In the end, wouldn’t it be like chasing away the wolf and coming back to capture me?
The howl of a wolf. The sound of a dog crying. A gunshot splits the air.
A farmer’s cry full of anger, a screaming girl, an excited boy.
Even the various breeding farms in chaos…
More than 30 minutes of confusion passed throughout the farm.
In this time of great confusion, help came again.
Talkadak-
The moment the top of the box opened, I realized. I’m alive.
As if waiting, the golden dog bit me lightly on the neck and pushed me out.
There was a power struggle with a goose of roughly the same size nearby, and in the end, I just killed it and put it in a box.
A friend who would die instead of me. I feel a little sorry. Still, understand. A thinking goose must live.
But earlier, when Elena lifted my head and moved it, something clicked? There was a sound.
A sound like something slightly cracking.
What is it?
There’s nothing in my throat that could make that sound… I think I heard it wrong.
Everyone worked so hard and did their best for me. In particular, if Seung-yeop were to be rude, he could have been shot by a farmer and died!
Surely he wasn’t really hit? I hope not. I was so thankful to everyone that it brought me to tears.
I could also hear a mumbling sound from somewhere. Is Ga-in oppa worried too? Or is it the sound of another cow screaming in surprise?
I waited with bated breath. Has it been about 2 hours?
After becoming an animal, the sense of time is also vague.
The farm family returned one by one. Looks very annoyed. From what I’ve heard, I can hear the wolf running away.
Seungyeop did a good job of avoiding it. Thank goodness. How tragic would it be if he were shot and killed while trying to save me?
I quietly hid in the corner of the kennel and watched the farm family approach the box.
“hmm? Why is this guy’s neck broken? Peter, did you kill it and keep it?”
“yes? “I just grabbed the neck and put it in the box.”
“He died because his neck was broken. “Maybe the wolf suddenly came and you made a mistake.”
“Uh… that’s strange. “I’ll be careful next time.”
“Well, it’s no big deal. He was going to kill me anyway. There’s nothing you can do because his bite is so bad. “I guess I’ll just go in today.”
Ah… how did you survive? I feel sorry for the goose that died and went into the box instead of me, but the farm couple couldn’t tell the difference between me and the other geese.
In fact, such a strange thing as a dog killing another goose and replacing it is something we would normally never imagine, so it is natural.
When KakaoTalk is restored tomorrow, I will briefly thank everyone.
After overcoming hardships, the tension melts away.
When I absentmindedly raise my head and look at the sky, the sun has long since disappeared, and the moonlight slowly embraces the world, scattering light in every corner.
In the morning, Ari told me that goblins come out every night in this world.
Shouldn’t I be of help to everyone now?
No. 101 – Strange Family. Even if Seung-yeop solved it by himself, I didn’t do anything after that, not only in the swimming pool, but also in the search mission and No. 102 – Mansion of Horror.
Rather, as soon as I entered the mansion, I was possessed and ended up doing crazy things.
Even in room 103, it looks like this. Some people gather information day and night, and some even draw out farmers by howling to save the geese from being plucked…
I am still just a goose in the aviary. Why on earth was I given a role where I couldn’t do anything?
No, this is not the time to hold such grudges. Let’s see if there’s anything you can do yourself.
Perhaps because I had just escaped a painful death, I couldn’t sleep.
Now that things have come to this, I decided to check out the goblins as well. If Ari said it, it doesn’t seem like they have much interest in us.
He quietly nudged the other goose with his beak and pushed him away, moving to a ventilated area on the outskirts of the aviary.
An unpleasant reaction from geese that look annoyed. Sorry guys. But the thinking goose has a lot to do.
When I peeked my head outside, I couldn’t see anything.
The sky and the ground are completely black and you can’t see anything. It seems like there was moonlight earlier, but maybe it was obscured by clouds.
Or is it that geese’s vision is worse than we thought?
Even though I turn my head here and there, I can’t see anything!
A huge figure came down.
Instinctively, I realized it by making a loud noise. The clouds did not cover the moon!
From the goose’s perspective, something infinitely huge was standing right in front of the aviary!
I was so surprised and so scared that my whole body just froze.
A huge – black figure with the face of a giant – comes down and looks at the aviary.
No, it’s not a kennel.
It sees ‘me’. I knew even though I couldn’t see. It’s paying attention to me.
My whole body is shaking. Only now did I realize how small and insignificant I was.
Please save me. I don’t want to die like this.
What happened next was unexpected.
A tentacle-like thing extending from a black figure glided down and stretched into the inside of the breeding farm.
He pushed me in, tapped my head, and disappeared.
An action that somehow feels friendly.
It was almost like an owner stroking and tucking in a pet when it was trying to get out of the house.
After about 5 minutes, I finally came to my senses. Even though I am a bird, my whole body feels drenched in tension.
A quiet kennel as if nothing had happened.
weird.
I know this very well because I have raised dogs, cats, and even parrots since I was young.
How timid the little animals are!
A parrot that flies to your shoulder and screams when a hanger falls off,
A dog that sticks to a person’s leg and doesn’t fall off even when the robot vacuum cleaner is running.
A cat that screams and runs away at the mere sound of a shower.
Small animals know that they are weak without anyone having to teach them.
Because the genes they received from their ancestors over millions of years informed them.
You are an infinitely small grain of sand in this vast world, and the entire world is in danger.
But… such a terrifying thing that even geese with human hearts can’t breathe out of fear comes right next to the aviary and pushes its tentacles in. Why is this aviary so quiet?
Not all the geese are asleep. Even though many of the geese were awake… it was as if nothing had happened.
We’ll have to talk tomorrow. But I didn’t think that talking about it would lead to any conclusion.
As I thought the mystery was becoming more and more complicated, I stuck my beak between my wings.
I’m starting to get used to the life of a goose. Still, it was nice that my fur was fluffy. You should never be chosen.
