Once this conjecture was voiced, all the police officers at the scene shifted their attention to it.

The next second, everyone's face showed an expression of sudden realization.

You know what, it's actually possible.

"If I remember correctly, Fatty seems to love eating chicken the most!"

From the crowd, a young policeman quickly spoke up.

Fatty and A-Qiang were very popular online a while ago.

Therefore, the characteristics and personalities of the two tigers have also become very popular online.

Just as many netizens now know what Chicken Baby's catchphrase is, Fatty Girl's love for chicken is also a rather distinctive label.

"Wow! Ah Qiang is really thoughtful!"

"He traveled 300 kilometers to see his wife, went through so many days and hardships, and still thought of bringing her a gift. How thoughtful!"

After realizing what had happened, the expressions on the faces of the police officers present became quite interesting.

Meanwhile, as they were talking, A-Qiang, who had a small hen in his mouth, had already entered the jurisdiction of Zizhou City.

Upon seeing that the mission was accomplished, the police officers in Meishan all breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the police officers in Zizhou, they exchanged glances and got to work.

"Alright, inform the bureau chief of the current situation."

"Then I called Zizhou Zoo."

At the captain's command, the officers immediately got to work.

One of the officers took out his phone and skillfully dialed a number.

The call was answered quickly:

"Hello, this is the Zizhou Public Security Bureau. Are you referring to the Zizhou Zoo?"

The young police officer was the first to identify himself.

Meanwhile, the person who answered the phone at Zizhou Zoo seemed to have anticipated this, as if they knew exactly what had happened.

Not at all surprised, he remained unusually calm when he received the call from the police:

"Hello, hello! My name is Qin Yuqing, and I'm the logistics manager at Zizhou Zoo. How can I help you?"

"Oh, it's like this, a tiger has been found in the wild within the Zizhou City area."

These things were all planned in advance; this was just an act, so the young police officer remained remarkably calm.

"We lack experience in handling protected animals, so we hope your zoo can send professionals to assist us."

"I'll add your contact information and send you the address in a bit."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yuqing on the other end of the phone quickly spoke up:

"Okay, okay, we'll arrange for professionals to assist you immediately..."

……

That's how simple and straightforward the communication was completed.

Meanwhile, in Meishan City...

Most of the police officers who were "escorting" Ah-Qiang to Zizhou have already left.

However, the captain in charge of this mission, along with two young police officers, had not yet left and were searching for something in the area that Ah-Qiang had just passed through.

Shortly after, the police stopped in front of a house's yard.

The captain, with a broad smile, politely walked towards a woman in her fifties:

"Hello, big sister."

"Huh? What happened? We didn't do anything wrong!"

When the police came to her door, the simply dressed, seemingly honest and simple middle-aged woman was immediately startled.

I was so nervous, thinking that I or a family member had done something wrong.

Seeing this, the police captain quickly waved his hand, while making his expression appear more amiable:

"Ma'am, you've misunderstood. We're not here to arrest anyone."

"Here's what happened. A tiger just passed by and caught a chicken. After asking around in the village, I found out it belonged to your family. We've come here specifically to deliver compensation to you."

"Our municipal bureau covered the cost of the chicken that the tiger took."

The captain recounted what had just happened in detail, which finally put the middle-aged woman at ease.

I wasn't too surprised, since the police had already spread the word along Ah-Qiang's route, telling people to lock their doors and stay home temporarily.

The only thing I didn't expect was that the tiger would actually snatch one of my chickens.

But after thinking about it carefully, the middle-aged woman suddenly showed a happy expression, as if she had thought of something joyful.

Seeing that the woman understood what he meant, the captain continued:

"How much is this chicken worth, sister? We'd like to give it to you."

Judging from the police captain's attitude, he probably wouldn't care about these small details. As long as the woman asks, and it's not too outrageous, he should give it to her.

The woman seemed to realize this as well, so she thought about it carefully, and then showed a conflicted expression:

"The chickens in our family are all free-range chickens raised on grain, and they are over a year old. The cost of raising them is not cheap."

"Moreover, free-range chickens are very expensive to sell in the city. Real free-range chickens cost at least 30 or 40 yuan per kilogram."

"How about this, you can just give me four hundred yuan."

After some thought, the woman tentatively held up four fingers.

The captain wasn't surprised by the number, but he was somewhat speechless after hearing those words.

Although he works in the city now, he was also a child from the countryside, and his hometown is still in the countryside.

So these things are not unfamiliar to me.

He didn't deny that the hen that A-Qiang had just taken was a free-range chicken, and he also acknowledged that free-range chickens were expensive.

However, based on his experience raising chickens in his hometown, those hens definitely did not have a year of growth time, and their weight was no more than five pounds.

Normally, selling it for a little over a hundred yuan would be pretty good.

But now this woman is asking for four hundred, more than double the usual amount, so she's definitely not being honest.

Of course, this matter concerns public opinion, so the police captain naturally wouldn't care about this small amount of money.

If he doesn't hand over the money, the bureau chief might tear him apart when he gets back!

Leaving behind a potential public opinion crisis and planting a landmine for four hundred yuan is simply not worth it.

"Okay, Xiao Liu, my phone is in the car. You can scan 400 yuan and give it to the lady first. I'll reimburse you when we get back."

"Okay."

Upon hearing the captain's words, a young police officer quickly took out his phone and came over, preparing to open the payment app and transfer the money to the woman.

Seeing this, the woman quickly took out her phone, ready to receive the money.

Just then, a young man who looked to be in his early twenties suddenly ran out of the house.

Seeing the policeman about to make money for the woman, he quickly stopped him:

"Wait, wait! Officer, we can't take this money!"

"Ah Qiang was passing by and got hungry. He just wanted a chicken; how could we charge him?"

Upon hearing this, not only were the three police officers present stunned, but even the middle-aged woman who was about to collect the money was dumbfounded.

Just as she was about to say something, the young man gave her a look, signaling her to be quiet.
