Introduction:
A brand-new statue was built in the middle of the town square, and a little bird looking for a place to stay found the statue. The statue gradually deteriorated over time and was transformed into various new things, including bricks to protect the city, a bear at the school pond, and a wolf to guard the sheep. Regardless of the changes, the little bird had stayed with the statue and never stopped singing and telling stories. But how could the bird stay with the statue forever?
