Chapter 89

After eating their fill, Su Zhe and Yu Xuanhao returned to the pet restaurant.

Xiaolong and Heihu had already finished eating. The two dogs were playing together, but their game was not like that of ordinary dogs, chasing each other around.

Instead, they chose to clash head-on. Xiaolong and Heihu used their bodies to collide. Since it was clear that neither dog was using its full strength, Su Zhe and the others couldn't tell which one was stronger.

Yu Xuanhao asked his bodyguard to go eat first, while they took Xiaolong and Heihu back to their room. Yu Xuanhao and Su Zhe agreed to go to the dog fighting arena later.

After returning to the room, Su Zhe took a shower and changed into a new set of clothes.

Not long after, Yu Xuanhao came to find him. So Su Zhe took Xiaolong and followed him.

When Su Zhe and Yu Xuanhao walked out of the hotel, Yu Xuanhao's bodyguard had already driven a minivan to the hotel entrance to wait for them.

Su Zhe didn't know how Yu Xuanhao managed to get this minivan.

After they got in the car, the bodyguard immediately started the engine.

It took only about 10 minutes for Su Zhe and the others to reach their destination, the ZY Club.

It was clear that Yu Xuanhao had been to the ZY Club many times and was very familiar with it. Instead of taking Su Zhe directly to the elevator in the main hall, Yu Xuanhao led Su Zhe to a more secluded passage. After turning a corner, Su Zhe saw a door.

However, two burly men were guarding the door, preventing people from entering at will.

When Yu Xuanhao and the others arrived, the burly men extended their hands to stop them from entering. At this moment, the bodyguard following Yu Xuanhao took out something that looked like a membership card.

After the guards checked it, they immediately let them through.

Inside the door, there was another elevator.

Su Zhe and the others entered the elevator. The elevator only had two options: the ground floor and the basement. This made Su Zhe a bit curious, as he had seen that the ZY Club had five floors when he was outside.

The elevator door slowly closed, and Yu Xuanhao pressed the button for the basement, saying, "On the surface, the ZY Club is an ordinary entertainment venue, but in reality, it's an underground dog fighting arena. The first to fifth floors are just a front. The dog fighting arena is in the basement, and only members of the ZY Club are allowed to enter."

Su Zhe nodded, indicating that he understood. No wonder Yu Xuanhao didn't take the elevator outside and instead took this roundabout way. After all, the dog fighting arena at the ZY Club was private, and the club also ran gambling operations, which were all illegal. Even if the ZY Club had strong backing, it still needed to be cautious and couldn't openly operate a dog fighting arena.

After the elevator reached the basement, Su Zhe and the others walked out.

Yu Xuanhao asked Su Zhe if he wanted to get a membership card, which would be convenient for future visits and necessary for placing bets.

Su Zhe thought about it and decided to get one now to avoid the hassle later.

So Yu Xuanhao took Su Zhe to the front desk. Since Yu Xuanhao was already a member, he could introduce new members. Therefore, the process for Su Zhe to become a member was not complicated. He only needed to provide his ID and set a password. After that, Su Zhe became a new member of the ZY Club.

The ZY Club membership card was about the same size as a regular bank card. It recorded a member's account and the ZY Club's website, with a simple design.

At this point, the only thing Su Zhe's membership card could do was grant him access to the ZY Club, as his account balance was zero. He hadn't deposited any money yet because he wasn't sure if he would need to use the card, so he didn't plan to deposit money for now.

Even if he needed to use the card in the future, he could deposit money later. He could log in to the ZY Club's website and directly deposit money into his account, which was very convenient and quick.

Yu Xuanhao and Su Zhe entered the dog fighting arena, and Yu Xuanhao used his membership to book a private box. This box was close to the dog fighting area and had a window for direct viewing.

Inside the box, there were sofas and tables, a large screen on the wall, and two computers. If customers didn't want to watch the dog fights from the window, they could watch them on the screen. The computers were for customers to check the matches and place bets.

The facilities in this private box were complete, the environment was comfortable, and there were dedicated staff members providing service. Of course, such a well-serviced private box came with a high price, but Yu Xuanhao didn't mind the cost.

As soon as Su Zhe and Yu Xuanhao entered the box, someone brought in some snacks and turned on the large screen on the wall.

When they entered, a dog fight was about to start, and the ZY Club was accepting bets from gamblers.

In this match, the ZY Club's Spanish Presa Canario (named Wei Wang) was to face any challenger brought by visitors.

The Presa Canario is a breed specifically developed for dog fighting. Its ancestors may include the nearly extinct Bardino Majorero and the descendants of the English Mastiff. By the 1960s, this breed was almost extinct but was later saved by Dr. Carl Semencic of the American Veterinary University.

The Presa Canario is a typical fighting dog, with thick skin, strong bones, and well-developed muscles. It has a large head with exceptionally developed jaw muscles, a powerful square head with a width and length that are nearly equal, a wide and long snout, a thick and muscular neck, a broad and deep chest, and a slightly upward-sloping hindquarters. Its coat can be light brown, red, or black.

Under the guidance of the staff, Su Zhe opened the computer and logged into the ZY Club's website. The website would update in real-time for each dog fight, and the profiles of all participating dogs would be published for members to check.

For example, the profile of the Spanish Presa Canario named Wei Wang was detailed on the website.

Wei Wang was about 63 cm tall at the shoulder and weighed 52 kg. He had participated in a total of 3 matches, with a record of two wins and one loss.

Yu Xuanhao didn't plan to have Heihu participate in this match, so he didn't register Heihu. Furthermore, Yu Xuanhao didn't plan to have Heihu participate in any matches tonight. He and Su Zhe were just there to watch the dog fights and place a few bets if they felt like it. He wouldn't have Heihu participate in the dog fights tonight.

Yu Xuanhao explained that Heihu had been on a long flight for several hours and hadn't adapted yet. His current state was not at its peak, so it wasn't suitable for him to participate in the match today. He brought Heihu to watch the matches and get used to the environment. After a good night's rest, Heihu would be well-rested, and Yu Xuanhao would bring him to participate in the dog fights the next day.
