Chapter 192

"Abai..."

"An Mou can only help you with this super-strong rat glue; after all, we can't get adhesive remover..."

An Sheng showed a look of pity and gestured for the gold-rimmed hedgehog's underlings to bring over the rat glue that had just been delivered by same-city express for Abai, who was covered in glue.

"Awoo."

Abai looked at itself, then glanced at the retro clock hanging on the wall; the time was now 2:49 AM. The only time Abai could go out was between 12:00 AM and 3:30 AM; Qiu Lingling usually woke up around 4:00 AM and went to work at 4:30 AM.

And Abai was covered in chemical adhesive, which obviously couldn't be removed in three or five days.

Abai was now facing a choice.

Either disappear for half a month, honestly squatting here at the gold-rimmed hedgehog's place, letting the underlings remove the glue manually, bit by bit removing the adhesive from its white fur.

Or, directly stick on a layer of rat glue, run home immediately, and act coquettishly and cry to its owner, saying there were dogs at the seafood market who secretly scattered rat glue all over the ground, and it got covered in it while going out to poop.

"Awoo!"

Abai's face hardened; it knew that without its fur, it would lose a lot of face during the day.

But Abai's paw still heavily patted the "shady idea" provided by An Sheng; it chose the rat glue!

Between its face and its little master, Abai didn't even think; it chose its little master directly.

It was the leader of the wolf pack outside; now, after making a living with Fox Brother, it had become the King of the Night Animals for half the city. Although life was infinitely glorious, Abai had never forgotten its original intention.

It was because its appetite had skyrocketed, and it felt it might eat through its little master's wallet, that it chose to come out and be a leader.

If it couldn't go home for half a month.

Then this leader position wasn't worth keeping.

"Sigh."

Seeing Abai's tragic and desolate atmosphere, as if a warrior were cutting off his own arm, An Sheng couldn't help but comfort it: "It's just shaving, it's no big deal. In half a year, you'll be a handsome dog again."

"Besides, it's hot in the summer now, so shaving will be cool. If it really doesn't work, we'll wear clothes when we walk the streets at night; humans have many beautiful clothes..."

Facing Fox Brother's comfort, the tragic-faced Abai seemed to think of something, suddenly stepped out of its desolate atmosphere, and approached Fox Brother's side.

"Awoo? Awoooo?"

Fox Brother, I saw my little master scrolling through the TikTok platform yesterday and saw a video. In the video, there was a stray Chihuahua. It was so hungry on the street that it didn't look like a dog anymore, but when it saw people, it would run over, stand on its hind legs, and "beg" for food.

When people saw it, they would exclaim how cute it was and immediately buy it food to eat.

The number of our brothers has already exceeded three thousand, and the brothers at sea have one or two tens of thousands. Relying on robbing speedboats and petty theft every day can't feed the brothers well, right?

After Lord Fuli beat up the hedgehog, the city center territory was automatically assigned to Fox Brother.

Now, the stray animals in the city center all belong to Fox Brother's command; even house pets have to give Lord Fuli some face, unless they never leave their homes again to pee on bushes, tree trunks, and fire hydrants.

Facing the explosion in the number of brothers, Abai couldn't sleep well during the day and had been racking its brains.

Originally, it had planned to pack a few roasted chickens after coming off the boat tonight to have a good talk with Lord Fuli about solving the brothers' food expenses, but who would have thought that as soon as it came out, its mouth would be sealed by a shot of glue.

Right! Those gray big fish also said they wanted us to get them some cups.

I don't quite understand that thing, but they also said it's best to get some low-quality ones; those are comfortable for the "mama."

"Holy crap!"

After hearing Abai's report, the little fox's expression became exceptionally colorful, as if he had been frightened.

When he first met Abai, the number of dogs was only twenty or thirty.

Later, as the territory grew, the number of dogs had long since reached over a hundred, and with the defeat of the Golden Lion, the number of dogs and cats merged directly. Coupled with occupying the prosperous city center territory, the number of stray cats and dogs had already reached a terrifying number of over three thousand.

Among them, the number of cats accounted for more than two thousand.

Moreover, eighty percent of the cats had bad personalities—the kind where if you go to pet them, three minutes later, the cat and the person could be fighting in the street.

If the cats' personalities weren't bad, they wouldn't be strays.

"The problem you mentioned is indeed worth deep thought..." An Sheng thought for a while and felt that what Abai just said—driving the dogs and cats to beg for food—didn't seem bad either.

"However... begging for food also has drawbacks; food will spoil if left too long. If we could beg for..."

"Hmm? Why can't we beg for cash? Just hang a QR code on the collar."

As An Sheng spoke, he gradually turned his gaze toward the gold-rimmed hedgehog, who was talking business with Lin Ying on the table.

Abai also looked at the gold-rimmed hedgehog with confusion.

"Hmm? Why are you both looking at Grandma?" The gold-rimmed hedgehog looked confused and turned toward Lord Fuli.

The two canine fellows had been whispering sneakily over there just now.

Hedgehog Grandma was mainly talking to Lin Ying, chatting about everything and taking the opportunity to pitch business topics—for example, their Xinhao Entertainment Group had various banquet halls for rent that could host major annual meetings and celebrations.

They also had luxury yachts and private jets with direct lines to casinos, and even a large number of "image-post" security personnel (desperadoes) who cared more about money than their lives.

They also undertook "person-retrieval" businesses in Myanmar and the Philippines.

In order to get on Lin Ying's line, the gold-rimmed hedgehog had taken risks to reveal some information, so naturally, she needed to demand the appropriate reward from Lin Ying.

The gold-rimmed hedgehog hadn't eavesdropped on the dogs' conversation, so seeing them look over, she felt some confusion.

"Sister, do us a favor. Don't you have overseas purchasing channels? Custom-make ten thousand pet necklaces with QR codes for me. By the way, remember to write a sentence on them: 'Even a cent or two is love; brothers and sisters, please give us something to eat! I'm hungry.'"

Gold-rimmed hedgehog: "..."

You little fellow are really not cute; why are you thinking about those illegal things all day long?

Following Grandma to open a casino and using your maritime network to make tax-free and gambling businesses bigger—wouldn't that earn more than the money from begging?

……………

An Sheng's unpromising proposal made Hedgehog Grandma quite angry, but considering Fuli's strength and beautiful fur, Hedgehog Grandma agreed to help.

By the way, for the sake of easy contact, Hedgehog Grandma gave An Sheng a new mobile phone.

Seeing the new phone, An Sheng had black lines all over his face.

Do I look like I don't have a phone? Aqing and Lin Ying both gave me phones... But do you think it's appropriate for a little fox to go out with a phone in his mouth? Is it convenient?

The gold-rimmed hedgehog was stunned, slapped her forehead, and let the maid go to her walk-in closet to take out an LV small saddle bag she had brought back during a recent shopping trip and gave it to Fuli.

The saddle bag looked like a waist bag. An Sheng stood on the table, and Lin Ying helped him put it on; it covered him from his shoulder all the way to his belly, and if the straps were tightened, it wouldn't hinder his movement.

"Pa-pa-pa—"

An Sheng felt something in the bag, so he reached in and pulled out a black box with a switch.

An Sheng pressed the switch, and the black box suddenly erupted with "zizizi" bright white electric arcs.

"?"

An Sheng looked at the gold-rimmed hedgehog with a blank face.

"Oh, I went out a while ago and met a weirdo who didn't respect Grandma, so I used it to shock him. If you like it, take it and play with it! Grandma has plenty more here."
