Chapter 49

Wang Xiao and the others ran over, panting heavily, and handcuffed Brother Wen.

The way they looked at Su Jing was rather peculiar. Su Jing had arrived before them and even managed to subdue Brother Wen. Logically, he should have been the most exhausted, but he was breathing steadily, as if he hadn't just been through intense physical activity. They all wanted to ask, "Are you even human?" But of course, they didn't actually say it; they just felt a mix of admiration and respect. Wang Xiao sent two people to bring down the other two police officers, three bandits, and the injured stray dog from the hill.

"Thank you so much, young man," Wang Xiao and the others were extremely grateful to Su Jing. If it weren't for him, they might not have found the bandits so easily. If the bandits had escaped the Qingyun Town area, it would have been like looking for a needle in a haystack, making it very difficult to solve the case. Sometimes, solving a case is all about timing, and missing it can turn it into a cold case.

"It was nothing," Su Jing smiled.

"Your 'nothing' helped us solve a major case. We all have to admit that you and your dogs are far superior. The chief will definitely give you an award and a bonus," Wang Xiao thought to himself, "There are truly experts among the common people."

"Too kind, too kind," Su Jing felt a bit proud from the praise.

"We need to take them back to the police station. We can't chat now, but leave your phone number. We'll contact you later," Wang Xiao said. Leaving a phone number was not just for giving Su Jing an award, but also to discuss something with him. They hoped to buy one or two dogs from Su Jing for the police station or have him train police dogs. If not for the urgency of taking the bandits back, he would have talked to Su Jing right away.

"Sure, see you later," Su Jing naturally had no problem getting to know the special police and left his phone number.

Wang Xiao and the others drove the police car to take the four bandits back to the police station, while Su Jing took the dozen or so dogs home. He carried the injured A6, who was almost fully recovered. If not for the worry that movement might reopen his wound, A6 could have walked on his own.

It must be said that walking back with a dozen dogs was quite a grand and impressive sight. These dogs were all very strong and majestic, and they marched in a neat formation. Even when someone threw bones by the roadside, they ignored them. As they passed through several villages, they attracted many curious onlookers. When they returned to Su Family Village, they were surrounded by people.

"Ah Jing, I heard your dogs helped the police catch the bandits. Did they catch them?"

"These dogs look so impressive, not inferior to police dogs at all."

"Ah Jing, are you okay?" Su Zhenhong and Zhao Mengxiang pushed through the crowd, relieved to see Su Jing unharmed. Although Su Zhenhong had encouraged Su Jing to help, he couldn't help but worry. Seeing Su Jing safe and sound, he finally felt at ease.

"I'm fine. The four bandits were all caught, but A6 was injured," Su Jing smiled.

"That's good. Catching the bandits is a great achievement. Let's have a big meal to celebrate tonight," Su Zhenhong laughed heartily.

After being hassled by his uncle and the villagers for a while, Su Jing finally took the dogs home. It was already evening. Su Jing and the dogs had been running for two to three hours. Although he wasn't physically tired, he had expended a lot of energy and his stomach was growling.

Su Jing immediately made a feast of magic beast meat with hot bai, eating his fill to recover his strength. He also rewarded the golden eagle and each dog with a meal. Of course, the man-eating vine and the tabby cat also got some, or they would have caused trouble.

"Stealing leaves."

"There are bugs stealing leaves."

Several birds flew over, chirping.

Of course, what Su Jing heard was a direct translation into human language.

"Damn, why didn't you eat it?" Su Jing quickly ran to the loquat tree in the backyard.

"It's very cunning, it sneaked in," the birds chirped.

Su Jing ran to the loquat tree and saw that in the cage hanging next to the bird's nest, besides the four leaves with eggs, there was a fat black cricket. It was quickly eating a leaf, having already consumed a small part of one. Fortunately, that part didn't have any eggs. The birds were surrounding the cage, but the holes were too small for them to get in. It wasn't that Su Jing hadn't considered this; the birds understood his words but had poor memory. If they could get in, they might use the leaves to build their nests.

"This cricket, how dare it steal." Su Jing found a burlap bag and put the entire cage inside, trapping the cricket. Then he slowly transferred the cricket into a jar, pricked it, and dripped a drop of liquid onto the Ten Thousand Beasts Token. He then heard its voice.

"Damn, where am I?" The cricket was frantically moving around in the jar.

"This is my territory," Su Jing smiled.

"Chirp chirp..." The cricket immediately raised its wings and chirped, sounding authoritative and urgent. What Su Jing heard was, "Want to fight?"

Su Jing was speechless for a moment, then realized that crickets are solitary by nature. They usually live alone and do not allow other crickets to live with them (male crickets only live with a female during mating). They cannot tolerate each other and will fight if they meet. In human terms, crickets are undoubtedly a bunch of solitary psychopaths.

"I'm here," Su Jing called out, wanting the cricket to realize that its conversation partner was not a male cricket.

"Come on then," the cricket chirped again. Its compound eyes were quite poor, and it couldn't see Su Jing at all.

"Damn, I won't talk to a psychopath," Su Jing was speechless, threw a leaf from the Eternal World into the jar, and ignored it for the time being. This cricket was already quite strong, and he wanted to see what it would become after feeding it leaves from the Eternal World for a while. He planned to take it to a cricket fight one day.

"Hmm? These eggs seem to have changed." Su Jing hung the four leaves with eggs back on the tree and noticed that the eggs had changed. A few days ago, they were moist and slightly green, but now they were dry and white. However, Su Jing wasn't sure if this indicated they were close to hatching, so he could only wait.

The next day, Su Jing got up early.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he ate some magic beast meat and drank a cup of tea made from leaves from the Eternal World. With a pleasant mood, he went to the Perfect Pet Paradise. Today was the day to take Little Li to the interview, and he couldn't miss it.
