The appearance of the parade float suddenly drew the attention of the tourists who were waiting for the opening of Animal City.
As the float slowly approached, people realized it wasn't just one float, but a parade team composed of over a dozen large trucks.
Those who were initially puzzled quickly came to their senses when they saw the two giant dolls on the lead vehicle.
"It's Officer Hopps and Nick Wilde!"
"My goodness, everyone on the truck has appeared in the movie!"
As a tourist exclaimed, the crowd noticed that the elaborately decorated floats were adorned with carefully dressed animals.
Beside each animal, there was a sign clearly displaying its species and basic information.
Even a minor character from the movie could be found among them.
"Where is Mr. Big? I don't see him."
"He's on Chief Bogo! Can't you see?"
"Whoa, you're right."
"Flash! That's Flash. I thought he was just deliberately slow in the movie, but he's really that slow."
"Too bad they can't write. I'd love to get their autographs, sigh."
"Animal actors are the best. No celebrity pretense at all. Officer Hopps is even eating."
...
As all the animal characters appeared on the floats one by one, the tourists experienced the feeling of chasing stars in person.
In fact, the scene was even more enthusiastic than a typical celebrity appearance. If it weren't for the pre-arranged security company, the tourists would have rushed forward to interact with the animal stars up close.
Only after the floats entered Animal City did the tourists finally calm down.
But before they could calm down for long, the news of Animal City's official opening spread.
Just as the tourists were excitedly preparing to enter, a group of Paw Patrol members in Animal City uniforms rushed out from within.
After a period of development, the Paw Patrol had expanded from its initial 8 members to over 50.
The leader responsible for security at Animal City was none other than the Tibetan Mastiff that Yang Lin had brought back from Diannan.
Compared to its dejected appearance before, it was now completely transformed. Its fluffy body, combined with its majestic face, made one wonder if it had been crossbred with a lion.
Following this group of Paw Patrol was the pair of muscular mountain gorillas from before.
Such an extravagant security formation instantly made the tourists feel a sense of pressure.
"So what they said online is true. There are no human staff in Animal City."
"I was worried about what would happen if people got into fights inside, but now I know I was overthinking it."
"Hahaha, you just can't beat them."
...
With the appearance of the animal security, the entry of tourists officially began.
At the same time, some specially invited media reporters and television staff also began to enter the park with the tourists.
Ningnan Television was one of them.
As a local TV station in Ningnan, it usually had few viewers. But today, it was experiencing its moment of glory.
Many netizens, curious about the situation inside Animal City but unable to get tickets, immediately tuned into their televisions and the online live stream of Ningnan Television.
As the camera's lens swept over the interior of Animal City, the viewers' expressions were the same as those of the first batch of tourists who had experienced the park.
"This is Animal City? It's exactly like the scenes in the movie."
"I never thought animals would live in human houses one day."
"It's spectacular. Animals and humans walking together, and predators and prey living in such harmony."
"It feels like watching a sci-fi movie."
"What kind of imagination could come up with such an idea?"
"Damn it, I couldn't get a ticket."
"Wow, the home of the little sloth up there on the tree is so tiny!"
"Indeed, the name Zootopia is not misleading at all. These scenes are truly wild."
"Isn't that where Officer Hopps and Nick Wilde first met?"
"If it weren't for the small animals, I would suspect they were all played by humans."
...
At this moment, the netizens who couldn't be there could only express their envy in writing.
Meanwhile, the tourists who had already entered the park were busy taking photos.
The already somewhat unreal scenes, combined with the filter of the Zootopia movie, brought countless surprises to the tourists.
Even without any animal performances or many amusement rides, simply watching the various animals live in this city was a unique experience.
As tourists excitedly took photos and videos, a goat that was nibbling on the greenery was apprehended by Officer Gorilla on the spot.
The tourists almost burst into laughter.
Before they could recover, two little monkeys started a fight in a nearby block.
Not long after the fight broke out, the Paw Patrol, with their flashing sirens, had already arrived at the scene.
Then, under the gaze of many tourists, the Paw Patrol engaged in a city chase with the little monkeys.
Incidents like this happened almost every few minutes.
The tourists, as if they had never seen the world, were amused by the animals' behavior and burst into laughter.
It was at this moment that a young woman holding a balloon in the crowd suddenly showed a look of panic.
"Dudu, Dudu, where did you go?"
"Don't scare mommy."
Hearing the woman's desperate calls, everyone, without asking, could already guess what had happened.
"This is going to be difficult. There are no staff here, so we can't make a public announcement to find him. And it's hard to access surveillance immediately."
"Yes, there are animals everywhere. If the child isn't kept close, it could be really problematic."
"Should we call West China Zoo and ask them for help?"
"It's better to ask the Paw Patrol."
...
For a moment, the tourists could only stare helplessly.
Just as everyone was about to start searching for the lost child, a series of exclamations came from the tourists on a nearby street.
The next second, under the astonished gazes of the tourists, an adult female lion led a cub that looked like both a lion and a tiger to them.
Before everyone could recover from the shock, the lioness lay down in front of them.
Then, an excited little boy slid down from her back.
After the boy landed safely, the lioness gave a reproachful look to the young woman holding the balloon, as if blaming her for not watching her child.
After completing this, the lioness then slowly left with her cub, accompanied by the gazes of the crowd.
