The live-streamed object exploration made me release that bird.

Chapter 1 Exploring Objects and Finding Birds

"Hey streamer, what are you looking for?"

"The live stream title says 'finding an item,' but what item are they looking for?"

"Riddler, I'm not watching anymore."

Yang Xun was live-streaming with a pole in hand, walking through streets and alleys, communities and urban villages. The original audience of eight or ten people in the live stream room was reduced to two or three people in an instant after a few comments.

Yang Xun was at a loss for words in this situation.

Today, after being unemployed for half a month, he went for another job interview and was rejected again. On his way back, he was distracted and bumped into a telephone pole. While seeing stars, he inexplicably received a live-streaming object-finding system.

However, this live-streaming object-finding system is too rudimentary. It has no control panel, only a light screen that prompts you to search for the object, and it doesn't explain what item you are looking for.

Since he hadn't found a job yet and thought he was hallucinating from a concussion, Yang Xun decided to try live streaming since it was still early and see if anything new would happen.

That's why he couldn't answer the questions from the viewers in the live stream, so he had to change the subject and introduce the scenic spots of this small coastal town with a population of two to three million.

Then he repeatedly thanked his family members and asked them to be patient and not abandon him, but he still couldn't win back their hearts.

This action deeply hurt Yang Xun, making him consider returning home.

After walking for an hour or two, if we continued, our legs would be exhausted, and we probably wouldn't be able to trigger the unique aspects of the live-streamed object exploration.

[Lost Bird Notice: My myna bird is missing. A reward of 5,000 yuan will be given to anyone who finds it. Contact number: 1388868####.]

[Object Detection Radar: The exact location of the myna bird is shown as a red dot on the map.]

Just as Yang Xun was passing by a residential building on his way home, a voice came to his mind, followed by two light screen messages.

Yang Xun was immediately invigorated.

He would receive a reward of five thousand yuan for finding the myna bird, which would solve his immediate problem, since he only had less than two hundred yuan in his entire fortune and his landlady would be urging him to pay the rent in a few days.

Furthermore, there's a map showing the exact location of this myna bird, so finding it is practically a certainty.

However, the bird-finding notice puzzled him. He had walked for an hour or two before, but why hadn't he triggered any specific search for the bird? Yet, he had triggered it just by coming here.

Could this place be some kind of auspicious feng shui location?

"Oh, I see."

Just as Yang Xun was wondering, he glanced casually at a piece of paper with a missing bird notice on the bulletin board next to him, and he suddenly realized what it meant.

Isn't this the same bird-finding notice that the system message mentioned?

The only difference is that this lost bird notice includes an image of a myna bird.

This means that to trigger the lost item search, you have to get very close to the signs for these lost items.

However, Yang Xun still had some doubts. He remembered that he had passed by the missing person notice before, so why didn't it trigger the search?

Is it because humans are too advanced and do not belong to the category of objects and animals, thus preventing the trigger?

Unable to figure it out, Yang Xun simply stopped thinking about it.

First, the title of the live stream was changed to "Looking for a missing myna bird". Then, the live stream camera was pointed at the bird-finding notice on the bulletin board and explained.

"Family members, you questioned my aimless wandering before, saying I was just testing your patience. Now I'm telling you, the item I'm looking for has appeared, and it's a myna bird on this notice."

"Family members, I'm about to start the search for this myna bird. Do you think I can find it before today?"

After the introduction, Yang Xun opened the myna bird's location radar, which showed it was in a park within a one-kilometer radius.

He started walking again towards the park.

"Host, this is a bit funny. You think you can find this myna today with just a random bird-finding poster? I think you're delusional. I bet you that if you find this myna today, I'll give you a Carnival gift."

"I agree with the guy above. If you just randomly post a lost and found notice on the street, it's impossible to find the item in a day unless you cheat beforehand."

"The streamer's approach to the live stream is actually quite good, but if he doesn't cheat, it's not interesting at all. If he does cheat, it's even less interesting. I'd rather watch other people's live streams where they cheat to catch fish. That would be more fun."

"I don't think the streamer cheated, but finding this myna bird today is impossible. If it were a dog or any other land animal, there's a chance of luck, but mynas can fly, and they might have flown out of the city. How are we supposed to find them?"

……

As Yang Xun changed the title to clearly state the item he was looking for, the number of viewers in the live stream gradually increased, reaching more than a dozen.

However, they all agreed that the myna bird could not be found today.

Despite this, the viewers were still curious and did not leave the live stream.

As the number of viewers in the live stream increased, Yang Xun was in a good mood. Regarding the accusations of cheating, he explained as he walked: "Thank you for your support, everyone. I swear to God, I really did not cheat. If I were cheating, I wouldn't have walked for one or two hours, wasting this precious time and testing everyone's patience."

As for whether I can find this myna bird today, I'm not sure, but with so much support from everyone, I can't bear to end the live stream. I'll just wander around and see if my luck suddenly turns around and I find it.

After explaining, Yang Xun quickened his pace and headed towards the park where the myna bird was located.

In about ten minutes, he arrived at the park, which was shaded by green trees and had all kinds of facilities.

"This is it."

With a few quick steps, Yang Xun arrived at a tree in a secluded corner of the park, and looked up at a tree hole about three meters above the ground.

"Family members, I feel that the myna bird is in the tree hole up above."

The exact location of the myna bird is indicated by the red dot. Yang Xun said this to the live stream audience, then set up the live stream pole next to him, aimed the camera at the tree hole, and immediately went over to the tree. He then began to climb up the tree using both his hands and feet.

"Hey streamer, are you kidding me? Just find any park, find a tree, and say that the myna bird is in the tree hole. You might as well just position yourself as a comedy streamer."

"Haha, host, you saw a tree hole and said there was a myna bird inside. Seeing how seriously you're climbing the tree, I'll give you some lollipops to encourage you."

"Hey streamer, you're climbing trees pretty fast! You'd get more viewers if you just streamed yourself climbing trees. It seems like this is a new trend, and nobody's competing with you."

……

The live stream room, which already had over twenty viewers, was filled with laughter and joy.

However, Yang Xun, who was climbing the tree, was unaware of the situation in the live stream.

At this moment, he quickly climbed and soon approached the tree hole.

He slowed down and carefully, then quickly reached up and covered the opening of the tree hole with one hand.

Viewers in the live stream, seeing Yang Xun's cautious yet decisive actions, momentarily mistook the myna bird for one of the birds inside.

But soon after, they burst into laughter again.

Many viewers who were just watching for fun also sent various gifts in the live stream.

At this moment, Yang Xun covered the entrance of the tree hole with his hand, then quickly climbed up half a meter, and peered into the tree hole through the gaps on both sides of his palm, following the sunlight.

A bird, about the size of a fist, entirely black except for a small tuft of fluffy, upright feathers on its head, was huddled inside a tree hole.

Yang Xun, who came from the countryside, naturally recognized it as a myna bird at a glance.

[Found the myna bird. Activating the live-stream object detection system. The system is loading and is expected to be completed within two hours.]

But after a moment of stunned silence, Yang Xun revealed a mysterious smile upon seeing the information flashing across the screen.

He then clamped his legs around the tree trunk, covered the entrance to the tree hole with one hand, and reached into the hole with the other hand through the gap.

They grabbed the myna bird from the tree hole and slowly pulled it out.

"Holy crap, no way, they actually pulled a bird out of the tree hole."

……

The viewers in the live stream were immediately shocked, their minds buzzing, unable to believe it.
