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.
136Please respect copyright.PENANADvyvuUXTGE
As always, whether on public transportation, the facades of buildings, or the screens of elevators, the familiar trumpet prelude echoed uniformly.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAeXWYO5ni7q
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.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAQGD8M0ZvqS
"Good morning, City 4. Welcome to the 8 am morning news. I'm Canaria."
136Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4Oo5PArEF
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."
136Please respect copyright.PENANALzjMxZqMNf
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."
136Please respect copyright.PENANA4z5Yg5Dwem
Novel Psychotic Encephalitis, commonly known as Flyania.
136Please respect copyright.PENANA1On3B3IyI5
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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAe2sLsIMq9S
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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANATfflUreAoX
As a result, the government cannot identify latent patients in City 4 and prevent them from committing suicide.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAozCp4NMouv
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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAqMYsHFvgcq
These patients are referred to as "Plaguemad" by the government.136Please respect copyright.PENANAyF7UQTYvf2
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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAySsGzutf87
Behind him, several ostriches in pure white uniforms with white masks on their faces were carrying the body in a body bag.
136Please respect copyright.PENANASdgk8IFDT3
"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.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAcNo0EA4g3U
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.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAB3l6OLfMPd
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."
136Please respect copyright.PENANAn6S9IBvrKz
The screen then switched back to the studio, with Canaria continuing to report on the morning news. 136Please respect copyright.PENANACmZmXjAsNm
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."
136Please respect copyright.PENANAaIvu0Wy5fv
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.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAGmBlxZwAOc
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?"
136Please respect copyright.PENANAoIuSSdhY34
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."
136Please respect copyright.PENANAn0WcGu9F2E
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."
136Please respect copyright.PENANAZDTFRWmeri
At this moment, a Crested Myna young man wearing glasses passed by and looked at the poleace officers with disdain.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAYKEM2w4vJf
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.
136Please respect copyright.PENANAnlN8D2FxfR
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!"
136Please respect copyright.PENANApauM3yPDOZ
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!" 136Please respect copyright.PENANASRrwtptb3s
Another poleace officer also approached and began to rough-search the young man, even scraping off a few feathers.136Please respect copyright.PENANAcdyCXFzBBx
136Please respect copyright.PENANAS1zfXLsPdt
Herowl, who saw everything, left as if nothing had happened. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAi7j9P3E9Td
"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."
