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

The next day, Lu Fang went to work with dark circles under his eyes.

The sheriff, meanwhile, led the orange cat, who had eaten and rested well all night, to Charlie's home.

The cat and the dog hugged each other and cried as soon as they met.

After wandering for so long, the stray orange cat finally had a full meal.

Charlie, who had been injured for so long, finally received medical treatment.

The sheriff waited until the two had finished exchanging pleasantries and calmed down before questioning Charlie.

"Charlie, do you remember the situation at the time, or some landmark buildings? These are important to our rescue of the black-skinned PE student."

The sheriff's visit today was not simply to reunite the two. They hadn't forgotten that the black-skinned physicist was still in the hands of the slaughterhouse, and so many days had passed; they didn't know how he was doing.

Upon hearing this, Charlie lowered his head, lost in his memories: "When I was captured, I was kept in a sack the whole time. Later, when I was escaping, it was the middle of the night, and it was pitch black all around. I just kept running north as fast as I could..."

Memories surfaced little by little, and it tried to discern the details within them.

"I remember now, that place had a strong rusty smell, and a fishy stench similar to that of dead fish."

"There should be a railway nearby, because I can hear the ground shaking and the clanging of trains every night."

Charlie took a deep breath: "There doesn't seem to be anything else, but I marked the area along the way when I escaped. If I can find the general area, I can find the place based on the marks!"

"But now..." It turned its head and looked at its hind legs, which were wrapped up tightly. It was so weak that it could barely stand up, let alone track the scent.

"It's alright." The sheriff patted Charlie's head with his tail. "Rusty smell, fishy smell, and the railway... we've got enough clues already. Leave the rest to us. You take good care of your injuries; you might have to step in later."

"Yes!" Charlie nodded heavily.

The sheriff nimbly jumped onto the table and then opened the pet group chat.

Right now, everyone is discussing Charlie's injury from last night. The sheriff and Tanuki came back late and didn't have time to explain in the group chat.

The person with 1.8-meter-long legs said, "Compared to the outside world, the people in our Tiancheng community are quite something. They not only don't chase away stray cats and dogs, but they even voluntarily pay protection money."

Da Yun: "That's true. Look at the stray cats and dogs outside, what a miserable life they lead. This dog was beaten like this, it's so tragic."

Don't turn your back on me: "I can contribute a gray mouse toy! It's time for it to feel the warmth of a big family."

At this moment, the sheriff logged in.

A dog walk costs one bone per visit: "@Sheriff, you're online! What's the dog's background? How's it doing?"

Sheriff: "It's nothing serious, I just need some rest. But there's something else I need everyone's help with."

With legs 1.8 meters long: "I would go through fire and water, even at the cost of my life."

Sheriff: "That's not necessary. Does everyone remember the dark-skinned PE student?"

A dog walk costs one bone per session: "Of course, this guy gets a lot of exercise. I used to take the most orders with him. Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for a while now. Did he move?"

Sheriff: "Based on the current situation, it seems the dark-skinned PE student was kidnapped by dog ​​thieves."

Grand Luck, legs 1.8 meters long, don't turn your butt towards me, idiot dog: "What!"

A woman with legs 1.8 meters long exclaimed, "What's going on?! Where did this dog thief come from?! I'm not going out for a while!"

Da Yun: "You really shouldn't have gone out. With your chubby toast-like appearance, you'd definitely be the first target of those dog thieves."

Sheriff: "The dog that was injured last night, Charlie, escaped from the slaughterhouse. It met the black-skinned PE student there."

He briefly explained the whole story in the group chat.

Don't turn your back on me: "Damn dog thief! That dark-skinned PE student is an old friend of ours, we can't just stand by and watch him die. Grab your weapons, let's go!"

The group chat was instantly filled with excitement.

Sheriff: "We don't have many clues right now. All we know is that it's a place with a rusty and fishy smell, and there's a railway line nearby. Have you been to any similar places when you're out on lookout duty?"

Everyone tried hard to recall the places they had been, but none of them matched perfectly.

At that moment, Lu Fang, who was blow-drying a Samoyed's fur at the pet store with dark circles under his eyes, felt his phone vibrating wildly in his pocket. He took it out and glanced at it during a break.

Wait, a dog thief, a slaughterhouse, and a dark-skinned PE student?!

This was the first time he had ever heard of these things.

As a veterinarian who loves pets, Lu Fang usually despises dog thieves and encourages every owner who comes to his clinic to keep their dogs on a leash when they go out. However, he never expected that some dogs in the community would still be harmed.

The guy with 1.8-meter-long legs said, "Why don't we get everyone out to search first? Maybe we can find some clues."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, ready to lend a hand.

Lu Fang broke out in a cold sweat when he saw that the man's legs were 1.8 meters long.

Why is this corgi's brain as short and small as its legs?

Are you kidding me? They're facing professional dog thieves armed with iron bars and lassos!

These pampered, overweight pet dogs going out to search are just helping others boost their sales figures, aren't they?

"Everyone, don't panic. Since they were able to catch so many dogs, they obviously have professional equipment and it was premeditated. If we go out to search, we'll just be walking into a trap!"

"If you ask me, we should first inquire within our own area, and we can also exchange information with other dogs in other neighborhoods."

"Or see if there are any bird enthusiasts in the group who live on high floors and have a better view, and can help go out and take a look."

"In the end, we'll have to rely on Brother Tanuki to contact the stray cat gangs outside and see if they can mobilize everyone to go out and search. As for the reward, that's easy to discuss. I'll have the vet cover the cost of the canned cats."

"Once we have a general idea of ​​the area, we'll take Charlie, whose injuries have mostly healed, to the scene to take a look."

"So much time has passed; the dark-skinned PE student either got into trouble a long time ago, or he's still holding on. But it's always better to be cautious!"

This well-reasoned analysis immediately won the unanimous approval of the pets in the group.

"Dude, are you really a Border Collie? This dog's brain works so well. If I had your brain, I could completely seduce my mom."

A bone for each dog walk: "Promoting the glory of the Border Collie! That's right, our Border Collies are just that smart! I call you the King of Border Collie Brains!"

For some reason, Lu Fang couldn't feel happy at all looking at the praise from the little animals in the group.

How did it suddenly become a dog's brain?!
