Illnesses struck hard and fast but took a longer time to heal. The stray dogs that just woke up from their poisoning were extremely weak. They couldn’t even stand up. The white dog ordered the other dogs to take care of them. With a heavy heart, he turned around and headed back to the Wuling Hong Guang MPV. Although he could communicate directly with Zhang Zian via the drone, he did not want the other dogs to hear the tone of his panicked voice.
Zhang Zian was still in the same position waiting for him to arrive.
After the long run, the white dog took a few deep breathes and said,
…Thank you. Although I don’t know why you would help us, I should thank you. Thank you for saving my companions.

Besides a sense of sympathy towards them, Zhang Zian helped these stray dogs hoping that doing so would help with the peaceful resolution of the conflict between stray cats and stray dogs. To achieve this goal, he had at least get rid of the hostility that the white dog may have held towards him.
Now, the white dog was close to the car. If Zhang Zian wanted to capture him, he could’ve just simply raised his phone and started the game.


However, Zhang Zian chose not to do so for two reasons.
Firstly, regardless of which elf he met for the first time, if the elf had obvious unfinished business, he allowed them to do so. For example, Old Time Tea wanted to finish tasting all the fine teas, π wants to find the Untitled Book in the Binhai Library, Famous wanted to find his lost memory in the Hollywood Wax Museum, Shihua wanted to go to South Korea to see the Korean stars she adored, and Vladimir wanted to go to Binhai and eliminate all the creatures that threatened his kind… He preferred to patiently wait for them to finish their tasks or even assist them in accomplishing the things. This was to prevent them from having any regrets. Besides, a forceful capture wasn’t the right thing to do. Thus, he waited for them to willingly return to him. When that happened, he would press the ‘capture’ button.
This still held true this time around.
Secondly, Vladimir was able to establish his squadrons after he came to the pet store. However, this white dog was already able to make the other stray dogs abide by his commands. If he forcefully captures him, the remaining stray dogs would remain leaderless. The group would be bound to fall apart into disorder and chaos.
Based on his observation, the white dog should have given his companions several rules on how to behave. Even when tasked to steal sausages, the dogs did not hurt people. He also displayed a warm friendly attitude to the female dogs after they gave birth. These were not the natural qualities of stray dogs.
Without these rules laid down by the white dog, these hundreds of stray dogs were bound to have a bad influence on the lives of the people staying in the surrounding areas.
In the words of a game: there must always be a king that will use underhand methods to succeed.
Throughout history, the worst centralized governments were nevertheless still superior to a group of disorganized warlords.
Therefore, he couldn’t capture the white dog until everything was properly arranged.
Zhang Zian said,
It was nothing, they were just a few bottles of Vitamin B6. They are not worth a lot of money. However, you deliberately avoided bringing the other dogs to come to me. Do you have more to say than just a thank you?



He was spot on. The white dog replied,
Yes.


Are you here to surrender? I highly welcome this. Our military’s policy toward captives has always been very good; we promise not to kill you!
cried Vladimir.
The white dog was angered.
Who would surrender to you? If you can, get off that car and come fight me!


If it is a fight you want, then it is a fight you get! Do you think I’m afraid of you?

Vladimir had a short fuse. He was about to get off and challenge the white dog to a one-on-one fight.

Wait! Wait! Let’s talk first. True gentlemen do not use their fists to discuss matters,
Zhang Zian hurriedly interrupted the two. He also didn’t know why it was so difficult to handle a cat and a dog.
They both scowled at each other for a long time. It took a while before the white dog could just barely suppress his anger and said,
I was thinking, the sausage that poisoned my brothers… Who threw it?


Who threw it?
Zhang Zian sighed.
This is a landfill. The garbage in Binhai and neighboring cities are generally shipped here. Perhaps the sausage used to poison dogs was shipped here from another area.


No,
The white dog shook his head.
I don’t think so.

He looked back at the large construction machinery vehicles that ran between the garbage hills.
It was those workers. I have heard them talk about poisoning us. They thought I wouldn’t understand them and said it while I was nearby. They deliberately threw poisonous sausages where we often would go.



The workers have long been harassed by the stray dogs flowing into the garbage dump. Although the white dog managed to lay down rules on the entire stray dog population, the workers’ inherent impressions of the dogs have already taken shape. It also didn’t help that the stray dogs were large or medium-sized with sharp yellow teeth. They were also rather dirty and smelly. It made the workers feel scared even if they were sitting in the cabin of their vehicle. If they wanted to urinate or defecate, they were often scared off by the mere thought of having to get out to do that.
Therefore, the workers discussed ways to kill the stray dogs and solve the issue once and for all.
The daily work of the landfill involved interaction with chemicals. It is therefore not difficult to buy the isoniazid through the network of businesses that interact with the landfill. However, it was one thing to sit by a couch and talk about doing something. It was another thing to act on it and kill off a thousand dogs. Both required a very different mindset.
Dogs were not considered poultry and livestock in modern society. They were large in size and often said to be close kin of humans. To kill so many dogs at once, they would’ve inevitably been haunted by their own actions even if they didn’t believe in ghosts. Thus, the workers would’ve most likely pushed the responsibility of dealing with them to the rest and take a backseat. They certainly didn’t want to dirty their own hands. However, as the situation got so dire that it became difficult to ignore, a few leaders were then picked to carry out the act. Everyone contributed some money to buy the necessary ingredients, place them in the sausages and then dump them into the landfill.
These so-called leaders have not done this kind of thing before, but now that they were selected to do so, their options were limited. They had to do it. What just happened was merely a test for them. They wanted to test how many pieces of isoniazid were needed to kill off a large and medium-sized dog. After they got their answer, they would’ve carried out their operations on a larger scale.
Thus, when the white dog learned that the dogs were poisoned, he immediately thought that the workers had done it. However, what good could he have done even if he had known it beforehand? The dogs would’ve eventually had to choose between starved or poisoned to death.
The stray dogs grazed in the garbage dump all day. With more than hundreds of these dogs, daily food consumption was simply astonishing. If they did not salvage food from the dumps, what measures would they have taken to feed themselves? Besides, puppies were constantly being born, so there were more mouths to feed. Every time you added a mouth, there was more pressure on them to survive.
The white dog had to attack Binhai City. Even if it wasn’t to fight against the stray cats, it needed to do so. Otherwise, these stray dogs would not be able to survive. Only in garbage-rich cities can they have survived.
When he became the dog king, he was full of ideas. However, he was now left with nothing but a bruised ego.

Oh, it turns out the workers did it…



Zhang Zian nodded. He couldn’t really blame the workers. After all, who was able to take having to work on a side by side with stray dogs every day? Besides, the stray dogs ​​had also bitten the workers before.
Who was right and who was wrong depended on whose side you were on.

So, what are you going to do? Dod you hope that I would plead for you to the workers?
He asked.
The white dog looked at him and said indignantly.
No, even if you ask them for sympathy, they won’t care. This place is not a long-term solution. I want to move my brothers out of the landfill.
