This is a world where humans are extinct, and various bird residents imitate human life. Although they cannot fly, they lead happy lives in the city.

It's a new day.
174Please respect copyright.PENANA4V5icu4P9k
As always, whether on public transportation, the facades of buildings, or the screens of elevators, the familiar trumpet prelude echoed uniformly.
174Please respect copyright.PENANAI7sSJ563JR
The TV in the fast-food restaurant was the same, with a male long-eared owl in a suit, chewing on a sandwich and watching attentively. On the TV screen, the news anchor was a canary beauty with bright soft yellow feathers, exuding elegance with every move.

"Good morning, City 4. Welcome to the 8 am morning news. I'm Canaria."
174Please respect copyright.PENANALa3vicz9yH
Canaria was the popular female anchor of the City TV, with a sweet smile and a professional image comparable to a female celebrity. "Thanks to Mayor Pengury, the people have safely spent another day in City 4. Please continue to enjoy this hard-earned fresh air. Next up is the local news report."
174Please respect copyright.PENANA0myNpqdHfF
The two clusters of black and yellow ear-like feathers on the male's head couldn't help but tremble with joy as he stared infatuatedly at the news, strictly speaking, he was just admiring Canaria. Whenever Canaria reported, he would support her wholeheartedly, even if he had just worked all night.

"Early this morning, another Flyania patient in the South District jumped from a height and committed suicide, marking the 781st case since the outbreak of the epidemic ten months ago."
174Please respect copyright.PENANAiFOBMze5Lo
Novel Psychotic Encephalitis, commonly known as Flyania.
174Please respect copyright.PENANA0saGsriri8
Patients in the late stages of the disease hallucinate that they can fly, leading to dangerous thoughts and attempts to fly from heights, resulting in fatal falls. 174Please respect copyright.PENANAuRIWhSJ4B2
The medical department still has limited knowledge about this disease, with unclear transmission methods, only knowing that it has a long incubation period and symptoms are not obvious during this period, making it difficult to detect patients. 174Please respect copyright.PENANAuKrVhIa5DD
As a result, the government cannot identify latent patients in City 4 and prevent them from committing suicide.
174Please respect copyright.PENANAdRPEfyb1LD
But what's most terrifying is that patients may exhibit violent tendencies during the incubation period, seriously affecting the safety of other citizens, like ticking time bombs that can walk. 174Please respect copyright.PENANAHIjaDi6XE9
These patients are referred to as "Plaguemad" by the government.174Please respect copyright.PENANAjJO28PwF9K
The TV screen switched from the studio to the scene last night, where a long-eared owl reporter was reporting near the building where the incident occurred. He was Herowl, the same man who was watching Canaria's report while eating breakfast. 174Please respect copyright.PENANA0P1TOxHBHe
Behind him, several ostriches in pure white uniforms with white masks on their faces were carrying the body in a body bag.
174Please respect copyright.PENANAPH5B5HvZJk
"As seen at the scene, poleace has arranged to remove the body promptly," Herowl said calmly and solemnly, as he was already accustomed to such scenes.
174Please respect copyright.PENANAQr3nxHEkFk
Poleace is the justice enforcers responsible for maintaining peace and stability in City 4. They always wear masks while on duty, ensuring their identities remain unknown, silently protecting the city as unsung heroes.
174Please respect copyright.PENANAq9WLEXZpRB
Seeing the Flyania's body being taken away, Herowl solemnly advised the audience, "I hope everyone cherishes life. If citizens suspect themselves or their loved ones of illness, please seek help early."
174Please respect copyright.PENANA4zjPXBbHT9
The screen then switched back to the studio, with Canaria continuing to report on the morning news. 174Please respect copyright.PENANASH1DpUOPWt
Just after watching his own report on TV, Herowl finished breakfast and left, muttering complaints as he walked, "Let's quickly go back, finish the remaining work, and then go off duty. I hate having time in the sunlight."
174Please respect copyright.PENANAipYms7yKFm
As Herowl hurried towards the train station, he saw three poleace officers in a dark alley beating a middle-aged red-crowned crane who was lying on the ground. It was difficult to tell whether the colors were from feathers or blood.
174Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9HJFdBPRq
One of the poleace officers saw Herowl and aggressively approached him, grabbing him and asking, "Hey! Are you Plaguemad? Did you put up these signs?"
174Please respect copyright.PENANAdX734g3ehW
Pointing to the posters on the alley wall depicting a blue wing emerging from two white clouds, Herowl with white crossed feathers on his face nervously took out his press pass from his pocket and denied, "No, no! I am City TV reporter Herowl, just passing by, getting ready for work."
174Please respect copyright.PENANApHXW5oPPPh
After seeing the press pass, the poleace officer immediately became friendly, patting Herowl's shoulder and pointing to the fallen red-crowned crane, saying, "Oh, thank you for your hard work. Plaguemad had a sudden attack just now and tried to attack us, but luckily he was subdued."
174Please respect copyright.PENANAwS5fE15K0z
At this moment, a Crested Myna young man wearing glasses passed by and looked at the poleace officers with disdain.
174Please respect copyright.PENANAj7SGO3v6MO
The poleace officer made eye contact with him and suddenly grabbed the young man, questioning aggressively, "Hey! Are you Plaguemad? Do any of you know if he is Plaguemad?" pointing to the onlookers around them for answers.
174Please respect copyright.PENANANkHgSq6z4g
Feeling suspicious and roughly accosted, the Crested Myna young man naturally felt displeased. He forcefully pushed the poleace officer's hand off him and retorted, "I am not Plaguemad!"
174Please respect copyright.PENANAk2qW8qiM6X
At that moment, the poleace officer immediately tackled the Crested Myna young man to the ground, stomping on his head with a claw and warning loudly, "Don't resist! You just tried to attack the poleace! Now we suspect you're involved with Plaguemad!" 174Please respect copyright.PENANA3eJ34WbzA2
Another poleace officer also approached and began to rough-search the young man, even scraping off a few feathers.174Please respect copyright.PENANASVHVSwd1YD
174Please respect copyright.PENANAB7w0qPPqZE
Herowl, who saw everything, left as if nothing had happened. 174Please respect copyright.PENANAlAR3baEJqF
"Ah, the young people nowadays are so impulsive, as long as you behave yourself and treat others with respect, poleace won't bother you at all."
