199: Chapter 198 A Wild Village Scoundrel! Two Hundred to Buy Your Life?

Meanwhile, at Old Man Li's house.

His son, Li Li, was full of impatience as he faced the stranger who had come to his door.

That was until he heard the other party had come looking for a dog!

And they had evidence!

Furthermore, since that dog was an internet-famous dog with a total of ten million followers across the entire web, Li Li felt a slight panic.

The owner of the lost dog was named Wang Zimo.

Right now, trembling all over and suppressing his emotions, he took out his phone, which showed the video surveillance he had someone pull up.

"Look, don't say I'm wrongly accusing you."

"When my dad was farming, he was afraid the Border Collie would get bored at home, so he brought it out. He let it play for a while, and when it got tired, he tied it to the electric scooter. Then my dad went off to work."

"The surveillance shows you and your wife riding an electric scooter and taking the Border Collie away. During that time, you kept covering its mouth so it couldn't bark."

"Is that right? This is you and your wife, isn't it?"

Wang Zimo's hands were shaking, but he maintained his composure. As a literary worker, he was trying to reason with them seriously.

Faced with the evidence, Li Li had no room to argue and could only nod in agreement.

"Yes, that's me and my wife."

"But the premise is, I thought this Border Collie was unwanted, so I took it."

Unwanted? The Border Collie was tied to an electric scooter, and you say it was unwanted?

There were tears in Wang Zimo's eyes.

But he didn't want to argue about right and wrong; he went straight to the point.

"Where is the dog?"

"Where is the dog now?"

"We've raised this Border Collie for ten years; it's like family to us."

"Tell me where the dog is, I'm begging you."

"Please, really, tell me, and I'll give you money."

"Just tell me where he is, and I won't hold you responsible."

"Because the Border Collie is already ten years old. I want it to spend the rest of its life in our home."

"I'm begging you."

Wang Zimo's voice was pleading.

He showed them the videos he had filmed with his dog, his account with followers from across the web, and even took out money.

Even if the other party had stolen Hoe, Wang Zimo was still willing to pay.

It was just because he truly treated Hoe as family.

On this side, Li Li saw that Wang Zimo was about to cry. His hand holding the phone was shaking, and he was a bit lost, so he could only say sheepishly:

"Uh... the Border Collie has already been sold."

"It probably won't survive."

"So, don't be like this."

Li Li's wife also stepped forward: "That's right, it was sold for 150."

"It's definitely gone now."

Buzz~~~ A ringing sound filled his ears. Wang Zimo didn't hear anything else Li Li's wife said; he only heard one sentence.

The Border Collie was sold, sold for 150, and it won't survive now.

Wang Zimo felt as if all his strength had been drained; his entire body trembled uncontrollably.

He took a long time to recover, then raised his head and asked with red eyes:

"But... it's our dog, why did you sell it?"

His voice was hoarse; Wang Zimo was exhausted from his grievances.

Li Li didn't dare to look him in the eye. Just as he didn't know what to say, several men approached from a distance.

"What are you yelling about?"

"Isn't it just a dog?"

"Won't paying you be enough?"

As they spoke, the men had already arrived at the scene.

"Li Li, how much did you sell it for?"

"150."

Heh.

"150? Compensate him 200. It's just a dog, and you're coming to our door asking for money? You must be crazy poor."

The man looked at Wang Zimo with disdain. They were the three from the village entrance just now.

Wang Zimo looked at the three of them in disbelief, then said: "I don't want money, I don't need 200. I can give you two hundred, just give me the dog."

"Damn! This guy doesn't understand human language!" The man turned back and laughed at his companions.

"We already said it was sold. Do you still not get what that means?"

"It's not coming back! That dog is long dead!"

As the man shouted, more and more people gathered around. Some idle old men and women left in the village crowded around to discuss it.

"The dog was sold? Oh, it's nothing. My dog has been sold before too."

"Exactly, coming to the door over such a trivial matter?"

"Alright, alright, we're all people from Wu City; isn't it over if we give you some money? Stop making a scene."

"Exactly, it's just a dog, is it really worth it?"

An old woman nearby looked at him with disgust and tried to push Wang Zimo.

Wang Zimo's personality was too good, leaving him unable to retort; he could only say over and over with red eyes:

"I don't want money, I'll give you money. That Border Collie has been with my family since it was born. We've raised it for ten years, and it's about to go to the Dog Star soon. I just want it to be at our home. This isn't a matter of money."

"Besides, I'm not making trouble; I'm just here to find my dog."

"The surveillance caught it all, why are you saying I'm making trouble?"

Wang Zimo explained desperately. He was even explaining himself to the dog thieves.

When the old woman saw that the young man wasn't yelling or causing a scene, she turned up the pressure: "Alright, Auntie knows you're sad."

"Won't compensating you with a dog be enough?"

"A Border Collie, right? I'll buy you a new one. Listen to Auntie, go away."

As she spoke, she tried to force Wang Zimo away.

Seeing that she was about to push Wang Zimo out of the bungalow courtyard, Wang Zimo finally couldn't hold back: "Don't touch me. I'm calling the police."

Seeing that Wang Zimo dared to resist? Several young men were immediately unhappy and stepped forward to threaten him.

"Go ahead! Call them, it's useless even if you do!"

"Do you know how Mang Village came to be?"

"Even if the Patrol Bureau comes, they have to keep a low profile!"

...

On the other side. The scene was relatively quiet. Chen Lin had a very strange expression.

Could it be that he was really like what Wang Gu said? That the Star Bridge connects the entire endless starry sky?

"Teacher Luo, has this situation ever occurred before?"

"Uh... I'll go back and ask someone for you."

"Lixian Academy has several professors who specialize in the Star Bridge Realm; they should know something."

Representative Luo Hong said. After listening, Chen Lin nodded.

He turned back to look at Gong Ling and the others, discovering that Wang Gu and Ye Huang were feeding a Golden Retriever with some food.

"Alright. Get ready, let's go to the front line and see if there's anything that needs help."

Chen Lin stepped forward and pulled Gong Ling away. He had realized that these brothers really loved small animals, and of course, Chen Lin was no exception.

If he weren't so busy, he would really like to raise one too.

But just as they got up, Chen Lin's phone suddenly rang.

As a holder of permanent law enforcement authority, his phone was equipped with an internal program; as soon as someone in the vicinity called the police, he would receive the notification first.

"Hello, what's wrong?"

"Officer, please come and help me, my dog is lost..."

Within two minutes, the six of them, including Chen Lin, arrived at Mang Village.

From afar, they saw a crowd of people surrounding a man. The man was leaning against a car, breathing rapidly, clearly over-excited, and his body was weak.

"What's going on?" Chen Lin walked forward, having already put on his law enforcement vest.

"Officer, my dog is lost. It's been with me for ten years, accompanied me in making short videos, and now has ten million followers, but they stole it and sold it!"

Chen Lin nodded upon hearing this. The matter was very simple, but why were they arguing?

He turned to look at the old woman who was shouting the loudest: "What is your situation?"

"Officer, this person is unreasonable. Isn't it just a dog?"

"We sold it for 150, I'll compensate him 200, and I'll compensate him with another puppy, isn't that enough? He insists on making a scene."

"I..." The rest of the words weren't finished. The old woman's vision went black, and then she felt a strange force kick her directly in the stomach.

"Screw you, you've brought the term 'savage' to life."

"Compensate two hundred? His dog has ten million followers, and you compensate him two hundred?"

"Damn it, is your two hundred so precious? You dog thief, why are you so arrogant?"

"Can I buy your life for two hundred?"

??? What the hell? Is this a dirty cop? Kicking right away?

In the crowd, a man with triangular eyes said in a panic: "Brother Long, this kid is like a dirty cop. Auntie Li was kicked flying with one kick. What do we do?"

Brother Long sneered: "Heh, watch my performance..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Lin slapped him directly.

"What are you laughing at? You little green-bean-eyed freak?"

"Cry for me."

Brother Long covered his face: ???
