"roll!"

Su Qian was shocked by their shamelessness and angrily retorted, "I'd rather burn Blacktail than sell it to you!"

"Hey, don't get so angry."

Old Huang wasn't angry. He glanced at Old Jiu beside him and said meaningfully, "These dogs, sometimes they're just so strange."

"If one dies, another one might inexplicably fall ill and die in a couple of days. That would be a real pity."

This is a blatant threat!

Lin Li remained silent, simply staring coldly at the two people.

The greedy look in their eyes when they looked at Lao Jiu and Lao Ba, and the unsurprised expression on their faces when they saw Heiwei's corpse.

This is definitely not a coincidence.

Gu Xiaomeng suddenly grabbed Lin Li's sleeve, her expression excited, and she quickly gestured with her hands.

Wu Xue, watching from the side, beamed with joy and quickly translated, "Mr. Lin! Dr. Gu said Blacktail can still be saved!"

"It's just in a state of suspended animation! Its heart is still beating!"

"real?!"

Su Qian quickly grabbed Gu Xiaomeng's hand and asked, "Dr. Gu, really? Heiwei is really not dead?"

The two men in camouflage uniforms' expressions changed instantly upon hearing this.

Old Huang even reached out and shoved Gu Xiaomeng, saying, "Go away! Where did this wild girl come from, spouting nonsense here! This dog is clearly already hard!"

As he spoke, he actually tried to forcibly drag Blacktail's corpse away: "Chairman Su, I'll buy this dog! Five hundred yuan! Keep the change!"

Lin Li moved swiftly, instantly blocking Gu Xiaomeng's path and grabbing Lao Huang's wrist.

Snapped!

"ah--"

Old Huang felt as if the bones in his wrist were about to shatter, and he couldn't help but let out a scream.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Let go! Let go now!"

He was in so much pain that the veins on his forehead were bulging. He immediately realized that he had encountered a trained fighter this time, and forced a smile, saying, "Brother! Brother, let's talk this over! I won't buy it, okay? Even if the deal falls through, we can still be friends!"

As he spoke, he winked at his companion, Lao Wang, signaling him to retreat quickly.

Lin Li sneered and with a forceful movement, he flung Old Huang, sending him staggering.

"Trying to leave?"

He blocked their path and demanded, "Black Tail just had an accident, and you two just happened to show up like this? What a coincidence!"

Old Huang and Old Wang were startled by Lin Li's imposing manner. They exchanged a glance, their faces showing some panic.

"Big brother, what a coincidence!"

Old Huang rubbed his still-aching wrist, forcing himself to remain calm, and said, "We were just passing by, who knew this dog was dead..."

"Yes, yes, we just wanted to help dispose of the body..."

Old Wang chimed in, but his eyes kept darting around.

Just then, Black Tail, who had been lying motionless on the ground, suddenly let out a low whimper.

"Woof..."

"Black Tail!"

Su Qian cried out in surprise and rushed over to hug Black Tail's big head: "Black Tail, Black Tail! Wake up!"

Black Tail slowly opened its eyes, stuck out its tongue and licked Su Qian's hand, and its tail swayed gently a few times.

Lin Li breathed a sigh of relief and said to the fourth brother, "Fourth brother, go and take a look."

The fourth brother walked up to Blacktail, lowered his head and sniffed it carefully, finally stopping at Blacktail's neck and letting out a low growl.

Seeing this, Gu Xiaomeng also went over and carefully examined the black tail's neck by parting the fur.

Soon, she raised her head and gestured angrily at Lin Li.

Wu Xue translated, "Mr. Lin, Dr. Gu said there are needle marks on Blacktail's neck! It was injected with some kind of drug, causing it to appear dead!"

"It really was you guys!"

Su Qian immediately realized what was happening and pointed at Lao Huang and Lao Wang, angrily shouting, "You two bastards! How dare you poison my dog!"

"Damn it! I'll risk it!"

Old Wang knew he had been exposed. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly pulled out a long-handled iron hook used for catching dogs and swung it fiercely at Lin Li's head!

"Lin Li!"

Su Qian exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Li easily dodged the hook, then kicked the handle of the iron hook hard with his right leg.

puff!

The iron hook flew out of Old Wang's hand in an instant, spun in the air, and the sharp hook point actually pierced directly into his thigh!

"Ah—my leg!"

Old Wang let out a piercing scream and collapsed to the ground, clutching his leg.

Old Huang, who was standing next to him, turned around and tried to run away.

"Can you escape?"

Lin Li snorted coldly and punched him in the back.

boom!

Old Huang was sent flying out of control and crashed heavily to the ground.

Just as he was about to get up, a large foot stomped hard on his chest, almost making him vomit bile.

"vomit--"

"security guard!"

Su Qian immediately shouted to the stunned security guard, "Quickly, search their car!"

The security guard didn't dare to say anything, and after a second of hesitation, he ran out.

After a while, he ran back, shouting that he had found syringes, anesthetics, and even several homemade poison crossbows in the two men's car.

"Caught red-handed, what else do you have to say?"

Lin Li looked at Old Huang, who was being trampled underfoot, his eyes icy: "Speak, why did you target Black Tail?"

Old Huang was in so much pain that his face was covered in sweat, but he still tried to be stubborn: "B-Brother, I just wanted to steal dogs to sell for money... I was blind to your greatness, please just let me go..."

"Stealing dogs to sell for money?"

Lin Li sneered and grabbed one of Lao Huang's fingers: "Looks like you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin."

Click!

"Ah—it's broken! It's broken!"

Old Huang's index finger was broken off, and the pain made his face contort in agony.

"I'll ask you one more time, why did you target Black Tail and Old Nine?"

Lin Li looked at him, his tone calm, yet instilling a strange fear: "Next time, it'll be two fingers."

"I'll talk! I'll talk!"

Old Huang knew he'd run into a tough opponent, and dared not be stubborn anymore: "I'm the owner of 'Peerless Dog Farm'..."

"I thought these two dogs were good breeds, and since they're Rottweilers, they're really fierce... so I thought I'd steal them and use them for dogfighting..."

Old Huang confessed tearfully, "I saw Chairman Su taking the dog for walks every day, and I got the idea to do something evil... Brother, please spare me! I'll never do it again!"

"A dogfighting arena?"

Lin Li frowned; this was the second time he had encountered someone like this.

He glanced down at Black Tail, who had regained some of his energy, and then looked at Old Ninth and Old Fourth beside him.

Tsk, these three dogs have been living too comfortably lately.

All it does every day is eat and sleep. Even when it occasionally goes out for a run, Su Qian and the others have to coax it. It has completely lost the alertness and wildness that a fierce dog should have.

"Looks like it's time to tighten things up a bit."

An idea popped into Lin Li's head, and he asked directly, "Where is your dog farm?"

To save his life, Lao Huang dared not hide anything anymore and revealed the address and the time of the match. He even took the initiative to explain that the poison needle was just a powerful anesthetic that would be metabolized naturally in a few hours and would have no aftereffects.
