Chapter 19: An Uncertain Future

Xinge's men fastened the chain around Haji's neck to a buckle, then hung the buckle on an iron ring, and then screwed the screws on the iron ring into a hole in the wall with their bare hands. Apparently this is the way they have been locking other dogs before, and they think that this way of locking is completely safe. It's just that they don't know that this kind of method is not enough in front of Haji, as long as there is a chance, Haji can release the buckle and let himself be free.

It's just that Haji knows that it's useless for him to do that now, and what he needs most now is to untie the collar around his neck, otherwise he won't be able to escape with a long chain. It's just that the circle is so strong that Haji can't do anything but force it open. But it would take time to break it by force, and Haji asked himself that he didn't have such a chance now, and exposing his intentions too soon would only cost him the chance to escape.

Haji has a new home and a new place to settle down for the time being, but Haji has never been happy. Even if the new brother asked people to bring him the best quality dog food and nutritious complementary food, he was not happy at all. In the past month or so, Haji has become accustomed to running freely, and the distance from his ideal hometown is less than a thousand kilometers away, and he will be able to see his mother in his previous life in another month. But who knew that at this time, the appearance of Brother Xin and others interrupted his dream.

What made him even more uneasy was that he never understood what kind of person this new brother was. Don't look at the new brother who said that he was a policeman during the day, but he didn't look like a policeman all over his body, and he said that he was a fool. Is there such a thing as a policeman? Standing without standing or sitting, eating and drinking with a group of people without any scruples. I don't even go to work, and I have been tracking Haji for several days, which police inspector will have such idle work?

In addition, the words that Brother Xin said when dealing with Village Chief Li and Director Zhou did not mean a police investigation at all, and it was almost the same to say that he was a gray society. And what kind of policeman can live in such a luxurious luxury villa of four or five hundred square meters? Even if this is just a little-known town and the land is cheap, it costs a lot of money to build such a villa! Not to mention that the interior of this villa is luxuriously decorated, and the garden landscape is also carefully built and maintained, which requires a lot of money to support, and what kind of policeman can earn so much money?

There are also those fierce dogs outside who are covered in scars, bloody and tyrannical temperament, ordinary people can't afford to raise such a one, this new brother actually has a total of nearly ten! This does not include the two fierce dogs and a few thin dogs that take care of the house, and of course it does not include Haji himself. Not to mention that it costs a lot to buy those dogs, just the eating and drinking of these fierce dogs is a sky-high cost.

The more fierce the dog, the more demanding the physical fitness, and the higher the requirements in diet. In order to maintain the speed of running dozens of kilometers every day, he had to steal live chickens and ducks every day to replenish his strength. In the search and rescue dog squadron, the food subsidy cost of each excellent search and rescue dog is higher than the monthly salary of an ordinary worker, which can roughly reach seven or eight thousand yuan per month. This is not to say that the diet of search and rescue dogs is tricky, but without the intake of supplementary foods such as beef, eggs, and marine fish, the search and rescue dogs' physique will be poor, and they will not be able to do the high-intensity and high-consumption work of search and rescue dogs.

Ordinary domestic pet dogs are a little less demanding in this regard, but the monthly cost of dog food alone is still not bad, which is why many families are reluctant to raise large dogs. And for those scarred dogs, although their diet is not as high as that of search and rescue dogs, the cost of eating raw chicken and beef is not low. And according to the smell Haji smelled when he walked through those kennels, the thick bloody gas there can be said to be very obvious, it can be seen that the new brother fed these fierce dogs with a lot of fresh meat, and Haji can naturally distinguish it.

But who is this new brother? Why does he have so many dogs? These fierce dogs are one or two, and it is easy to say, but if there are too many, they will not be tamed at all, and they will not be able to be used. It is impossible to use these fierce dogs to watch the home. To put it mildly, if such a fierce dog runs out without closing the door properly, they will get into more trouble than they can do. can raise these fierce dogs that can be eaten and made, and the monthly spending on dog food alone will be tens of thousands of yuan, what is the origin of the new brother, how can he afford to spend such a large amount of money to raise these fierce dogs?

It is certainly useful to spend a lot of money to raise such a fierce dog. But such a fierce dog has a violent temperament, especially a fierce dog like Bit and Tibetan Mastiff, with low IQ and big temper, and even its owner sometimes has to be bitten, let alone others. Why did Brother Xin's others spend so much money and put so much effort into raising these dogs? Thinking of the scars on those fierce dogs, and then thinking about the tyrannical and bloodthirsty aura on those dogs, Haji soon had an answer: fighting dogs!

Dog fighting is a phenomenon that is common in all countries of the world, and it is one of the weapons and entertainment methods that people use to gamble and fight. Like Caucasian dogs, pitbulls, and dogo dogs, they are all internationally recognized fighting dog breeds. The cost of raising such a fierce dog is huge, and ordinary people can't raise a few at all. Raising so many like Brother Xin, and all of them have scars on their bodies, may only be a tool used to fight dogs and gamble for fun. So what did the new brother do when he caught himself? Is he also going to let himself be a fighting dog for his amusement?

Haji is still self-aware of this. With his size, he can't compare to those fierce dogs in terms of long-distance running, speed and agility, not to mention that those dogs are all breeds that were bred by humans to specialize in dog fighting. For example, the Pitbull, that guy's skin nerves are extremely underdeveloped, and even if he is bitten, he doesn't react. In addition, this guy will also secrete a lot of adrenaline in the process of tearing up, which makes them less painful, so it can be said that they are almost a dog specially used to tear up. Of course, pitbulls are artificially bred for people to gamble and have fun, so the most hateful thing is not the pitbulls, but the people who created them.

Although Haji is now an adult dog, it is still incomparable with fierce dogs such as Tibetan mastiffs, Caucasians, and pitbulls. If the new brother really planned to raise him as a fighting dog, he would not have been put in a villa so close to people, but should have put him with those fierce dogs. Unless the new brother has so much money in his hand that he is annoyed that he intends to ask Haji to lose some money for him, of course, that situation is impossible.

Before contacting what the new brother said to people when he was eating in the restaurant, Haji judged that the new brother was interested in him when he was chasing him, and after catching himself, he mistakenly believed that Haji was the offspring of a Labrador Retriever and a wolfdog, and he had the idea of trying to raise it to hunt for curiosities. Judging by the new brother's words, this person should like that kind of intelligent and especially loyal dog. And what about those fierce dogs? Most of them have well-developed limbs and poor intelligence, and when they are used to watch the home, the owner will worry that they will hurt people, or even hurt themselves. Therefore, Haji's fate should not be the same as those fierce dogs.

Although he was roughly certain that his fate would not be the same as that of those fierce dogs, Haji was not happy either. The first is that he has lost his freedom now, and the second is that what Xinge and others are doing makes him unhappy.

What are they doing, these people are getting dinner ready! And they're getting the corpse of the poor little dog that Haji broke one of his front legs and was shot dead by the new brother! they're going to cook the little dog into a delicious meal that will serve tonight's guests.

For Haji, he is now a crossover figure. It has both human thoughts and emotions, and at the same time canine emotions and feelings. Although Haji couldn't see how the people in the kitchen were cooking the poor little dog, the smell of the corpses of his kind filling the air made him miserable. This is the same as how a normal person would react when they see someone cooking a human being, and anyone would think that a cannibal is anti-human and unacceptable. But Haji is now facing this state of mind, but he is helpless.

When it was almost seven o'clock in the evening, the guests invited by the new brother came one after another, and the first one to come was the director of the police station surnamed Zhou. Not only did he come by himself, but he also brought two assistants, and by the way, he remanded one person over. After knowing the news of Zhou's arrival, Brother Xin and others took the initiative to greet Zhou at the door of the villa and welcomed Zhou to the villa.

In China, there is a set of rules for greeting guests. If the visiting guest is quite important, the host will usually go to the gate to greet him. If the host only greets him at his own door, then such guests are often less important. Of course, there is an exception, that is, the relationship between the host and the guest is so good that it is not good, it is very iron, so there is no need to connect it at all, and the guest knocks on the door and the host can invite it in. And the relationship between the new brother and this Zhou Suo is, of course, the second type, and Zhou Suo is still one level lower in front of the new brother.

After Zhou came in, he simply said a few polite words, and said to the new brother: "I brought the person, how do you think it will be handled?"

Brother Xin looked at the living room of his luxurious villa, and then looked at Haji who was lying on the ground, and said with a smile: "Is that kid still wearing it here? Let's go and see together, let him know who he can't afford to offend. Wait, I'll bring the black wolf with me. ”

As he spoke, the new brother unbuckled and took Haji out of the villa with Zhou. Haji naturally walked to the right of the new brother, as if he had been trained in the search and rescue dog squadron.
