Chen Jianghe said in a deep voice, "I don't care if you are the ones or not. You won't leave until you tell me who's behind you. If I can't get anything out of you, I'll hand you over to the police."

"I refuse to believe that they can't find out."

"Men, give them a piece of your mind. These are all spies. Show them what they're made of."

The three closed the door and went outside to wait. Inside, they heard howling and wailing. Chen Jianghe yawned, glanced at the time and realized it was already three o'clock. He hadn't slept well all night and still had training tomorrow.

Ugh, I'm so sleepy.

"Little Hunter, how did you know someone would come to steal chickens and ducks at night, and how did you manage to catch them all by yourself?"

"It was the owner of Good Luck Restaurant who reminded me to be more careful, saying that Happiness Restaurant might be making moves recently and urgently needs my food supply, but I haven't sold any food to them at all."

"As for how I was able to catch them all, it was all thanks to the Lucky Ears Spirit, which led me to the people."

Chen Jianghe laughed upon hearing this: "Oh my, this little puppy's ears are amazing, even more amazing than my little yellow dog. But its fur and muzzle are a bit long, it doesn't quite look like a mixed-breed dog."

Jiang Lie paused for a moment before speaking, "Um, maybe it's a wolf cub. It doesn't look like a puppy anymore now that it's grown up."

"...!!"

"What did you say?"

The captain looked at him in shock, never expecting his son to say such a thing. He said nervously, "A wolf cub, huh? Wolves are wild and untamed. What if it grows up and hurts people?"

Jiang Lie said earnestly, "Father won't do that. I will train them well, and they can come with me to hunt in the mountains from now on. They can also be hunting dogs because of their good hearing. If they want to return to the forest when they grow up, I will let them go."

"It won't hurt anyone, I'll keep an eye on it. If it does hurt someone... I'll handle it."

This is his first time raising wolf cubs, and he has no idea what they will become when they grow up. However, if they are trained properly, they should not cause any harm to anyone.

The door opened, and two militiamen came out: "Captain, the people inside have said they want to speak to you personally."

Chen Jianghe nodded: "Okay, let's go in."

Dog Brother was curled up on the ground, his body trembling slightly. When he saw them come in, he hurriedly shouted, "Confess, I'll confess everything. Just don't treat me like a spy, that's all that matters."

"It was someone from the owner of Happiness Restaurant who contacted me. It was Gao Jinbao who gave me money, saying that their boss wanted me to go to the countryside to steal chickens and ducks, and only yours."

"Give me a sum of money after it's done. I think this is a pretty simple matter, simpler than stealing from someone's house. Besides, there are so many chickens and ducks on the farm, it doesn't matter if a few are lost."

"Besides, it's too dark to see clearly, and it's difficult to catch us. The risk is low and the reward is good, so I took the job."

Upon hearing his brother-in-law's name, Chen Jianghe's pupils constricted: "Who are you talking about? How could Gao Jinbao possibly come to you on his own? He's so cautious, would he leave any evidence against you?"

Dog Bro hurriedly explained, "No, he didn't tell me himself. He had a stranger find me and tell me about it, and he specifically mentioned that it was Sun Youcai, the owner of Happiness Restaurant."

"I had the monkey follow that person, and we discovered that the person that person went to see was not Sun Youcai or Gao Jinbao, but that chubby guy who was the purchasing agent for the Happiness Restaurant, someone I knew."

"He had someone tell us that Sun Youcai sent us, probably trying to distance himself from the situation. If I hadn't sent someone to follow him, I wouldn't have known it was him."

Chen Jianghe pursed his lips and remained silent, his expression somewhat unpleasant.

Jiang Lie glanced at the brigade leader, and the father and son exchanged a look: "Dad, I think we should leave the brigade's security to Uncle Chen. Once the person is caught, Uncle Chen can decide how to deal with him."

"It's getting late, let's head back first. I'm a bit tired, I haven't had a good rest these past few days."

"Okay, let's go back first."

"Old Chen, you handle this as you see fit. This is a security issue for your militia team, so it's up to you. We'll head back now."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianghe knew that the father and son were saving face for him. Since these thieves were connected to his brother-in-law, he couldn't report them to the police, otherwise his brother-in-law would be arrested...

How are the girl and the child supposed to live? How could that idiot have gone and done this himself? Isn't this a scheme by Sun Youcai? What a stupid brother-in-law!

Suppressing his complicated thoughts, he said, "Okay, you all go back first. I will definitely handle this and give you an explanation."

The father and son left the militia.

"Dad, what do you think Uncle Chen will do? I originally thought it was someone hired by the owner of Happiness Hotel, and since the militia is difficult to deal with, it would be fine to just hand him over to the police."

"If no major losses are caused, at most we'll just have to pay some compensation and keep these thieves under control for a while. It's hard to get them to go to jail."

The captain nodded and said, "This matter involves your brother-in-law, Uncle Chen. If it really blows up, it won't be good. If he gets locked up, his sister's family won't be able to make a living."

"If something else happens, how will you get along with your Uncle Chen in the future? He has always been very protective of you. This matter cannot be made public. If it can be settled privately, then settle it privately."

"If things really escalate, Gao Jinbao won't admit it. Verbal statements don't count as evidence, and the actual losses are indeed very small. In the end, it'll all be a minor matter."

"It's better to be a little oblivious now and see how Old Chen handles it. Let Gao Jinbao learn his lesson and make sure he doesn't covet your chickens and ducks again. Next time, he won't be so easy to get away with it."

Jiang Lie hummed in agreement, then, as if thinking of something, whispered, "Father, leave a written agreement. If Gao Jinbao tries anything funny again, this can serve as evidence."

"It's best to have witnesses and written evidence. There's no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days; that's too tiring. Gao Jinbao will be less likely to act recklessly if he's afraid. If he doesn't act, it's easier to deal with if Sun Youcai does."

"We don't need to worry about Uncle Chen's reputation. If Sun Youcai dares to make a move, we can send him to the police station. He's much easier to deal with than Gao Jinbao."

The captain grunted, "Alright, it's getting late. You should go home and rest. We'll wait for news from your Uncle Chen. If he's still loyal to Gao Jinbao and hasn't given us any explanation..."

"I've given him face this time, but I won't entrust him with the job again next time. Of course, if he shows some understanding, then I'll let it go this time. Things in the countryside often can't be handled in a rigid way."

"If we really send them to the police station, we'll make enemies with the Chen family. It's not worth it if we don't suffer any losses."

Jiang Lie nodded and said, "I understand what Father means. Now it's up to Uncle Chen to handle it. We just need to keep that in mind. Father, you should go back and rest early."

"Yeah, you too. Go home early, your wife will be scared if she's home alone."

"it is good."
