The style of this animation is hand-painting and chalk is the main material. It tells a story that rat soldiers blackmail protection fees from citizens on the pretext of protecting normal rats from abuse by owls and eventually, the owl scares these soldiers away. This animation has set in an old town where rats live peacefully. However, the peace is broken by a piece of news that from now on every rat, who lives in the town, need to submit protection fee. The army starts to collect money all day and all night. Citizens feel scared, but they have no money to submit anymore. Therefore, the residents try their best to avoid being touched by soldiers. One day the rats in a smithy fail to distinguish the candle in time and they are noticed by a soldier, who is angry with them and aims at a rat. At this moment, the small owl scares off the soldier and saves the frightened rat. Written by Chen Xi See less
