Haji was sent to the containment base at night, and the lights in the courtyard were on when he first came in, but soon after the staff went out, almost all the lights in the courtyard went out, leaving only a dim light above the small door where the staff entered and exited. The night covered most of the courtyard and the sins that took place in the night. The dogs were silent, and they didn't know whether they had gone to sleep or had survived the terrible night at the cost of their lives.

The courtyard was dark, and even with Haji's current eyesight, there were still many dark corners that he couldn't see clearly. It's good that at least you can't see the cruel scenes that are happening, and it's a little easier to bear psychologically.

In the wee hours of the morning, a terrible scream suddenly erupted from a dark corner of the yard, apparently the last struggle of a desperate life after a dog's throat had been bitten. The dogs in the yard were awakened by this bark and screamed loudly. Looking from Haji's cage, he couldn't see what was happening on the other side of the cage where the screams were most terrible, but that didn't stop him from judging what was going on there, another life was ended by another hungry one.

The dogs barked like a contagious disease, and all the dogs in the courtyard barked wildly, but Haji remained calm. These barking dogs are not using this bark to warn about anything, but more to use this bark to give themselves courage and ease the fear in their hearts.

The loud volume of the dogs barking together was loud, and it quickly attracted the attention of the officers on duty. However, the man on duty did not go into the courtyard to check the situation, and he did not know what he used to smash the iron door on the iron door, so that the iron door embedded in the door frame was smashed with a loud noise, and Haji, whose ears were particularly keen, almost jumped.

"What a howl, sooner or later you will die! If I call you to give you some medicine, it will be a ball!" The scolding of the officer on duty came from the other side of the courtyard wall. Although no dog could understand what he scolded except Haji, at least the dogs knew that what he said was not a good thing. The pressure on the dogs from the humans at the containment base was enormous, so the officers on duty suppressed the dogs' barking just by yelling.

In this human-built hell, there is no use struggling and crying, and the dogs have no choice but to die in fear.

As the night passed, the sky began to illuminate everything in the containment base. Sure enough, another stray dog was missing, its body was missing, except for a small piece of fur stained with a small amount of flesh, only a few bones remained. The sturdiest dogs were still guarding the pile of corpses, and from time to time they bared their teeth and let out a menacing growl.

But even so, there are still some bold dogs looking for an opportunity to come together, and they want to pick up some leftovers left after these dogs devour their kind. None of these dogs are physically strong, but they are extremely persistent and cruel when faced with the corpses of their own kind. Because they know very well that food will give them the strength and energy to deal with the coming accidents, and will prevent them from becoming the food of the strong prematurely. Otherwise, it won't be long before they become food for other greedy people.

What is happening in that cage at the moment is pure drama of killing and survival, although the dogs have not understood this since they came to this world, but reality has made them quickly understand the relationship between strength and survival. In order to survive, killing your own kind does not seem to be a very difficult option.

After eating the poor dog with very little left, the strongest dogs finally gave up the pile of corpses, which were of no use in their eyes, and hid to rest. The remaining dogs, who had never found food, rushed up and began to snatch the remaining bones of the same kind that could be barely used. The strong ones can grab more, which means that they have bought themselves a little more time to live, and the weak ones will get nothing, and if they are not good, they will be wounded by the sharp teeth of the same kind, and when these wounds become inflamed and suppurated, their bodies will be even weaker, so that they will not be far from becoming the next victim.

Looking at this bloody scene happening in front of him, Haji felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Why is this scene so familiar? Although it happened to a group of stray dogs, is it different from what has happened in human society?

Wars, plunder, massacres, betrayals, calculations, all these things have not been long away from this country! Just a few decades ago, the same thing happened in this land, to the human race, who called themselves the spirits of life. At that time, from the slaughter of the same kind, betrayal among the same people was not uncommon, and some villains were just to be able to keep themselves alive, or even just to make him live better, he could betray his own compatriots to the enemy, and lead the wolf into the house to slaughter his own people.

Is human beings really civilized beings in this world? No other creature seems so keen to resort to such barbaric and cruel murder and slaughter of its own kind. They have even developed the most advanced technology and technology into advanced weapons to increase the efficiency of killing, as if only then would they be civilized and advanced. And for thousands of years, with the struggle and slaughter of these little reptiles who claim to be high-IQ civilizations, the entire earth has been polluted by these billions of arrogant and arrogant guys, making this blue planet less pure and beautiful.

In comparison, the dogs' killing of their own kind seems to be simpler and cleaner, without the possession of wealth, nor the plundering of land, nor the so-called devouring and eradication of culture, they are just to survive. And the cause of all this is precisely from human beings themselves. From this point of view, these dogs are pitiful, and even the most vicious perpetrators are equal members of this cruel game, and they may face the day of being killed and devoured at any time, and the difference is only a matter of time.

Eventually, the cage fell silent, and there were few corpses left that could be used. Even the dogs who came up to snatch had given up, leaving only a few of the weakest, still clinging to the fur and bones that could no longer be digested and absorbed, and trying to swallow. It's not like it's fueling their stomachs, it's more like it's renewing their lives. And the dogs, who were wounded in the fight, hiding on the side and trembling and licking their wounds, seemed to have become candidates for the next batch of deaths.

As dawn dawned, there were voices in the containment base.

Two staff members walked in with a garbage truck and began to clean the kennel in the shelter. However, there is obviously a difference between them, like Haji, who belong to purebred dogs, and they are good-looking cages, and they are more serious about hygiene. When it was time to reach the cage for the stray dogs, they would open the side door adjacent to the cage and drive the vicious-looking dogs into the adjacent cage, and then reluctantly clean the cage where the killing had just taken place. But in the end, they didn't even clean the corpses and flesh from the ground, and then they withdrew early to get a cage.

When the cleaning was done, the two staff pushed the collected garbage out of the small door on the back wall, not knowing where it had been dumped. Anyway, according to the voice Haji heard, he probably didn't go far before he collapsed. As for whether the garbage would pollute the environment or cause infectious diseases to the shelter base and the dogs nearby, the two cleaners didn't seem to be worried. Maybe in their eyes, these dogs are rotten lives, and only those dogs that are pure and good-looking can be of some practical use to them.

Haji looked closely, and through the crack in the open door, there seemed to be a wilderness behind the small door. Although it is not far away and not comprehensive, it will not be a problem. In this case, his escape plan could be successful.

After cleaning up, the staff came to feed the dogs, and each cage was given two large spoonfuls of dog food. However, these two large spoonfuls of dog food can be said to be enough for not many dogs in a cage like Haji, and most of them are small-sized dogs, and they can't even eat them all. But for those cages with too many large and small stray dogs, it is completely insufficient.

However, the puppies in those cages don't have to worry about not being able to get their hands on the food, because they won't even have the opportunity to get close to the food bowl. A few of the most vicious dogs in the cage are at the front, and they don't have enough to eat, so where can they get their hands on the puppies? But not being able to grab the dog food is still good for these small stray dogs, because the big dogs eat some dog food, and they are not so anxious to bite at them.

Haji had been lying at the front of the cage, and the little ones behind him had not dared to move when they saw Haji standing there. I'm afraid that if they eat dog food in the past, they will be killed by the vicious dogs in the cages opposite Haji. Haji didn't want the little ones behind him to feel too easy to bully, so he walked over and sniffed the freshly poured dog food, ready to exercise his rights as a large dog.

When he smelled it, Haji vomited. Because as soon as you smell the dog food in the food bowl, you can know that it is the cheapest bagged dog food on the market, which is very rough. At first glance, it is made of some chicken and pork scraps, which are broken together with the bones, and they are barely used to wrap the belly. As a working dog since he was a child, Haji eats quite good dog food, and he usually has complementary food. Even when he came to Liu Xiaohui's house later, he was also raised with good food and drink, how could he have eaten this kind of thing?
