"The only thing I can help you with, Ansheng, is this super-strong Mouse Trap Glue. After all, we can't get Adhesive Remover......"
Ansheng looked sympathetic, gesturing to the little brother of the Golden Hedgehog to bring over the Mouse Trap Glue that had just been couriered with lightning speed, to Ah Bai, who was covered in adhesive.
Ah Bai looked at himself, then glanced at the retro clock hanging on the wall. The time was already 2:49 AM. The time Ah Bai could go out was from midnight to 3:30 AM; Qiu Lingling usually woke up around 4 AM and left for work by 4:30.
The chemical adhesive all over Ah Bai was obviously not going to come off in just a few days.
Ah Bai now faced a choice.
Either disappear for half a month, obediently staying with the Golden Hedgehog, and let the little brothers manually remove the adhesive, bit by bit, from his white fur.
Or, immediately coat himself in Mouse Trap Glue and run back home to whine and complain to his owner, saying there's a dog at the seafood market that secretly spread Mouse Trap Glue all over, and he got covered in it while going out to poop.
Ah Bai's face turned determined. He knew that without his fur, he would be extremely embarrassed during the day.
But his paw still slammed heavily on the tricky idea provided by Ansheng, choosing the Mouse Trap Glue! Check latest chapters at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝕟𝕖𝕥
Between his pride and his little owner, Ah Bai didn't even think twice and chose his little owner.
He was the leader of the wolf pack outside; now, after working with Master Fox, he had become the king of half the city's night animals. Life was glorious, but Ah Bai never forgot his original intention.
He chose to be the leader because his appetite had grown so much that he felt he might bankrupt his little owner's wallet.
If it meant not being able to go home for half a month.
Then being the leader wasn't worth it.
Seeing Ah Bai looking like a hero cutting off his own arm, manifesting a tragic and sorrowful atmosphere, Ansheng couldn't help but comfort him, "It's just shaving your fur, nothing that big, in half a year you'll be a handsome dog again."
"Besides, shaving in the hot summer is cooler. If it's really uncomfortable, we can just wear clothes while strolling at night. Humans have many pretty clothes...."
Facing Master Fox's consolation, Ah Bai's tragic expression suddenly shifted, as if he'd thought of something, and he moved closer to Master Fox.
Master Fox, yesterday I saw a video on the music platform when my little owner was browsing, and there was a stray Chihuahua in it. It was so hungry in the streets that it no longer looked like a dog, but when it saw people, it would stand on two legs, bow, and beg for food.
When people saw this, they'd exclaim how cute it was and immediately buy things to feed it.
Our brothers already number over three thousand, with one or two thousand friends from the sea. Relying on robbing big boats and petty thefts every day can't sustain the brothers, can it?
After Master Fox beat the hedgehog, the city center's territory automatically fell under Master Fox's domain.
Now, all stray animals in the city center are under Master Fox's command. Even domestic pets have to show some respect to Master Fox, unless they never leave their homes to pee on grass, trees, or fire hydrants.
With the number of brothers increasing, Ah Bai was worried and couldn't sleep well during the day, always thinking hard.
Originally, he planned to pack a few roast chickens and have a good talk with Master Fox after boarding the ship tonight, thinking of a solution to the brothers' food expenses. But who knew that just after coming out, he was hit with a glue trap that sealed his mouth.
Right! Those gray big fish also said they want us to get them some cups.
I don't quite understand what that's about; they said it's best to get some shoddy ones, they're more comfortable that way.
After listening to Ah Bai's report, the small fox's expression became unusually colorful, as if it was startled.
When I first met Ah Bai, there were only about twenty or thirty dogs.
Later, as the territory expanded, the number of dogs quickly reached a hundred or so. After knocking down the Golden Lion, the number of dogs and cats combined soared, and with the prime territory in the city's center occupied, the number of stray cats and dogs has reached a terrifying number of over three thousand.
Among them, the number of cats accounts for over two thousand.
Moreover, 80% of the cats have poor temperaments, the kind that will fight with people on the street even three minutes after you pet them.
If a cat's temperament wasn't bad, it wouldn't become a stray in the first place.
"What you said is indeed worth considering....." Ansheng thought about it and felt that what Ah Bai just mentioned, getting the dogs and cats to beg for food, seemed like a good idea too.
"But.... there is a downside to begging for food; if the food stays too long, it'll spoil. If we could get..."
"Hmm? Why not beg for money? Just hang a QR code on the collar."
As Ansheng spoke, he gradually turned his gaze to the Golden Hedgehog sitting on the table, discussing business with Lin Ying.
Ah Bai also looked at the Golden Hedgehog in confusion.
"Huh? Why are you all looking at Grandma?" the Golden Hedgehog looked confused and turned to Master Fox.
The two dog-like creatures had been whispering sneakily to each other just now.
Hedgehog Grandma was mainly talking with Lin Ying, chatting about all sorts of things and also promoting business topics, like how their New Crown Entertainment Group had various banquet halls for large meetings and celebrations.
They also had luxury yachts and private jets that flew directly to casinos, and even had a lot of security guards who would do anything for money (daredevils).
They also offered rescue services in Myanmar and the Philippines.
Risking some disclosure to connect with Lin Ying, the Golden Hedgehog naturally needed to seek due rewards from Lin Ying.
The Golden Hedgehog hadn't eavesdropped on the dogs' conversation, so when she saw them looking over, she felt a bit confused.
"Sis, do us a favor. Don't you have overseas purchasing channels? Order me ten thousand pet collars with QR codes on them. Oh, and remember to write on them: 'One penny, two pennies, it's all love, brothers and sisters give us a little food, we're hungry'."
Golden Hedgehog: "........"
You little rascal are really not cute, always thinking about those illegal things.
Following Grandma to open a casino and expanding the duty-free and gambling business using your maritime connections is far more profitable than begging for change, isn't it?
Ansheng's pitiful suggestion left Hedgehog Grandma quite annoyed, but considering Master Fox's majestic and beautiful fur, she agreed to help.
Besides, to facilitate contact, Hedgehog Grandma gave Ansheng a new phone.
Seeing the new phone, Ansheng's face was full of black lines.
Do I look like I don't have a phone? Both Ah Qing and Lin Ying gave me phones.... But do you think, does it look appropriate for a little fox to go out carrying a phone? And is it convenient?
The Golden Hedgehog paused, slapped her forehead, and then instructed the maid to go to her wardrobe and bring out an LV mini saddle bag obtained during her recent shopping, to gift to Master Fox.
The saddle bag looked like a waist bag. Ansheng stood on the table on his hind legs, and Lin Ying helped him put it on. It covered from his shoulder down to his belly, and when the strap was tightened a bit, it wouldn't hinder his movements.
Ansheng felt that there was something inside the bag, so he reached in and pulled out a black box with a switch.
Ansheng pressed the switch, and the black box suddenly emitted bright white electric arcs with a "crackling" sound.
Ansheng looked at the Golden Hedgehog in confusion.
"Oh, a while ago when I went out, I met an unruly person who disrespected Grandma, so I used it to shock him. If you like it, take it to play with! Grandma still has plenty here."
