There's a chat group for pets in my neighborhood.

Chapter 104 Another Entrustment

"How can you have no compassion at all!"

Xu Yi pouted, clearly annoyed by Liu Cun's indifferent attitude.

"If you ask me, don't waste your energy on this kind of thing, it won't make you any money." He stood up, unscrewed the bottle cap, gulped down half a bottle of Coke, and shrugged.

"You guys continue with your research, I need to prepare for my next surgery!"

With that, he left the two of them with a dashing back view.

"Never mind him, Fang-ge, what are you planning to do?" Xu Yi raised a small fist at Liu Cun's back, then moved closer to Lu Fang: "Is there anything I can do to help?"

What else can we do?

He couldn't possibly abandon his job at the pet hospital to check surveillance footage along the street.

For something like this, of course we should ask Brother Tanuki to handle it!

"It's alright, you should focus on taking good care of our customers first. I'll figure out what to do, and I'll let you know if I need your help later!"

Lu Fang patted Xu Yi on the shoulder, signaling her to go do her work first, then found a quiet corner and opened the group chat.

The group has been quite lively lately, mainly due to the addition of new members.

It must be said that One-Eyed Dragon is quite trustworthy. These days, he has been diligently protecting the safety of Tiancheng Community with the cats in the urban village, and he has never bullied the animals in Tiancheng Community.

Therefore, everyone agreed that Tanuki's decision to recruit One-Eyed Dragon was the right one.

One-Eyed Dragon quickly integrated into this big family.

There's no way around it, canned food just smells so good.

Who could resist a satisfying can of salmon after a long day of patrol?!

One-Eyed Dragon: "Reporting, Tanuki, today's patrol mission is complete. No anomalies found. OVR!"

Social Brother Li: "It's time for the shift change, right? Don't tire the brothers out. Our Tiancheng Community is very humane. After your patrol, remember to go to the canteen to collect your rations for today."

Seeing this, Lu Fang couldn't help but sigh, "Brother Tanuki does have a certain feline charm."

If he had intervened in the battle between the urban village and Tiancheng residential area that day, Tiancheng residential area might have won more easily, but it would never have been able to gain the submission of the one-eyed dragon.

"@SocialiteLiGe, how busy have you been lately? You've got a new commission."

Socialite Tanuki: "Long time no see, kid. What have you been up to? What's got this on your plate?"

"My owner has been busy with the pet hospital lately, so I haven't had time to go diving."

"My request is this: I want to find a dog."

"Looking for a dog? Then you've come to the right cat." Tanuki yawned lazily.

After the urban village incident was over, it had plenty of free time. Under the guise of recuperating, it handed over the operation of Tiancheng Community to the police chief and then went into the gentle embrace of the Three Flower Goddess.

"Same as always, three cans." Once Brother Tanuki sets a rule, it's set. Even though there are so many cats and dogs in Tiancheng Community now, the maximum number of cans accepted is three.

"No problem," Lu Fang readily agreed.

These days, the cost of a can of food is nothing to him. His own pet hospital has so many cans of Ark Select food on display. If Tanuki wants to eat, how can he not give it some?

"Okay, do you have any clues?" Seeing the reward Lu Fang had promised, Brother Li asked again.

"There's a lost dog poster and a photo." Lu Fang took the lost dog poster out of his pocket, took a picture, and posted it in the group chat.

"Are you kidding me? What can you possibly figure out from this?" Brother Li cursed angrily in the group after just one glance.

Unfortunately, the photo was really blurry, and after being compressed by the phone camera, it was even harder to make out anything.

With legs 1.8 meters long: "In my opinion, this should be a dog."

"One dog walk costs one bone: 'Duh! I already posted a lost dog notice, so it couldn't possibly be a cat, could it?'"

The cherry blossoms in my hometown are in bloom: "You really can't tell anything from this photo. To be honest, if you didn't say it was a lost dog poster, I wouldn't have recognized it as a dog."

Seeing everyone chatting amongst themselves in the group, Lu Fang quickly defended himself, saying, "The photos are indeed a bit blurry, but there are other things to report."

"We can preliminarily determine that it is a beagle, and there is also a dog leash that has its scent on it."

As he spoke, Lu Fang also took a picture of the dog leash and posted it in the group chat.

"Everyone is welcome to provide any clues they have. As long as they are confirmed to be useful, there will be a reward of canned food and snacks."

Upon hearing this, everyone's enthusiasm was immediately aroused.

The person with 1.8-meter-long legs said, "I remember that almost no one in Tiancheng Community keeps beagles. This dog is too noisy. Someone used to keep a dog, but it was reported for disturbing the peace and was given away. If it can be confirmed that it is a beagle, it will definitely be easier to find. People who have seen it will remember it."

The cherry blossoms in my hometown are in bloom: "Now that you mention it, I seem to remember this dog. It was seen near Tiancheng Residential Area. It looked quite old, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time."

"I've definitely seen this dog before, just a few days ago. I guess it was starving and came to our neighborhood to try its luck and find something to eat, but it got chased away."

"Drive them away?" Lu Fang asked. "Who did it?"

No one in the group responded, saying it had nothing to do with them.

One-Eyed Dragon: "It's not exactly driving them away. Didn't Brother Tanuki assign us brothers the task of protecting Tiancheng Community?"

I did see a beagle once; I didn't let it in, and it didn't bother me, just left.

One-Eyed Dragon: "I really didn't mean it. I didn't know it was a lost dog. I thought it belonged to the Xiaotian Gang. After all, there aren't many stray dogs. Tiancheng Community is within their territory. If there are stray dogs, they basically belong to the Xiaotian Gang. We were worried about retaliation from the Xiaotian Gang, so I chased away all the dogs except those that we had certified."

Socialite Tanuki: "You did the right thing. Besides, although beagles are rare, there are still people in the area who keep them. It might not be the same one. But now that we have a lead, we can follow this lead."

Social Brother Li: "@My God, by the way, since you have a dog leash, I'll arrange for someone to come and pick it up in a bit, and see if we can find any clues by following the scent."

Brother Li made arrangements methodically, displaying the demeanor of a big boss in every move.

"Okay, I'll leave it at the entrance of Ark Pet Hospital. Just bring it back to me when you're done." Lu Fang was quite at ease leaving things to Brother Li.

"@One-Eyed Dragon, do you remember where you met that beagle?"

One-Eyed Dragon: "It's right at the south gate of the community."

Tanuki has its advantages, and Lu Fang has his advantages as well.

After all, humans can check surveillance footage.

He plans to use a two-pronged approach to find the beagle as soon as possible and put Grandma Tang's mind at ease.
