"How could I not see it? I was just guarding outside. Allah and the dog's leg are so big. If I passed by the door, how could I not see it?"
Lin Xiang was about to go crazy, didn't she just play teasing for a while, and in such a blink of an eye, Allah and Dogleg disappeared.
"Miss, I'm sorry, we'll adjust the surveillance for you right away. Don't worry, there are cameras all over the park. Even if the two Alaskas run away from the beauty center, they won't get lost."
The manager of the beauty shop was also in a cold sweat. It has not been a full month since the Pet Paradise opened, and the outside world has paid a lot of attention to this pet paradise that has just started trial operation in Haishi. The company's intention is based on Haishi Centered on the cute pet paradise, it spreads to the surrounding major cities. The ultimate goal is to go public. If a pet loss scandal breaks out at this juncture, let alone his small beauty center, even the director will have to It's not out of the question to get criticized from above, make a fuss and lose your job.
So this matter must be dealt with properly, and tourists must not be dissatisfied with them.
"what happened?"
On the other side, seeing that the time was almost up, Lin Chen reluctantly took Zhuoxi's hand back, and in the other hand was still holding the dessert for his sister.
"Brother, Allah and Dogleg are gone." Lin Xiang was crying when he spoke. You said she has so much time to brush Douyin, why didn't she go home and do it again? If Allah and Dogleg can't be found, She must be guilty for the rest of her life.
"Allah is gone!"
Zhuo Xi held Lin Chen's hand and squeezed it tightly, eager to step forward. If it wasn't for this hand, he might have fallen to the ground.
While comforting Zhuoxi and the others, the staff urgently called up the monitoring screen. It can be clearly seen from the video that one of the staff in the room forgot to close the door when leaving the staff passage, and then when other staff did not notice, , Doglegs and a small teddy dog left through the open door, and then another employee saw the open door and closed the door again to prevent the pets from escaping.
The supervisor of the beauty center glared at the employee who forgot to close the door when he first left. At the beginning of the training, he was repeatedly instructed to close and lock the door, but they all took these words as a deaf ear. Catastrophe.
The video was still going on. Two or three minutes after the dog legs disappeared, Ala seemed to notice the disappearance of the dog legs and yelled at Lin Xiang's position a few times, but did not wait for a response.
Lin Xiang looked at the video screen guiltily. It turned out that Allah had looked for her, but she didn't hear it.
In the video, Ala, who couldn't call Lin Xiang for a long time, got up from the mat and walked towards the closed door. The staff of the beauty center and Lin Chen and others who watched the surveillance video watched it stand upright, two front The claw rested on the doorknob, and then pressed hard to open the door, and then disappeared from everyone's sight.
"This dog has become a spirit!"
One of the employees couldn't help muttering, and couldn't help thinking that the disappearance of the first two pet dogs could be said to be due to their dereliction of duty, and then the latter one could possibly be blamed on these employees as well.
I should blame the designer who designed this door for not expecting pets to be so smart, and for not making the way to open the door more difficult.
But now is not the time to find out who is responsible. Finding those missing dogs is a serious matter.
The owner of the Teddy who disappeared with the dog leg was a six-year-old girl. This time she came to the Pet Paradise with her parents. After knowing that the domestic Teddy was missing, she almost passed out from crying. The other's parents Feeling sorry for her daughter, she strongly demanded an answer from the park.
It is not a trivial matter for a pet to go missing in the Cute Pet Paradise, especially when the party at fault is still on the side of the park. In just ten minutes, all the leaders in the park came over and called Zhuoxi and others to the monitoring room. In the surveillance of all the parks, Yan Chu and other dogs were found.
"Sir and miss, don't worry, the security measures in our cute pet paradise are still very strict. The patrolling security guards will send the pets that are left alone to the pet leisure center in time, and there are cameras all over the park. Just look for them according to the cameras around the grooming center. I believe that you will find your pet soon."
The guarantee from the head of the Cute Pet Paradise did not reassure Zhuoxi and others. If he is really as good as he advertises, then Ala and Gouleg, who are well massaged in the beauty center, will not be in the eyelids of so many employees The bottom disappeared.
And where are Gouleg and Allah who are missed by everyone

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-"
The dog leg was lying in the cage. It didn't know why it was fine at first, but the next second it was hugged by a stranger, who stabbed it with a needle, and then its limbs became weak, so it could only let the other person Carry it out of the cute pet paradise like holding a child.
Having the same experience as it, there is also the little Teddy who ran out after it.
"Wow woof!"
Little Teddy was a little excited, looking at the cages of the same kind imprisoned in the box in the trunk of the pickup truck, facing the fine railing gap, began to move the air.
"I just went by chance this time. I didn't expect the rewards to be really big." The two middle-aged men in the driving seat were talking while puffing.
They are a group of dog thieves, but they are a little different from ordinary dog thieves. They steal the precious breed of dog, and the main value of stealing it back is to use these breeds of dogs to breed. For those underage dogs, the chance of neutering is low in this way, even if they are mistaken, the resale price of breed dogs is also high.
No matter how bad it is, selling it to those small workshop dog meat shops, anyway, this is a no-cost business, and I don’t feel bad if I lose money.
This time I heard that Haishi has opened a cute pet paradise, Wan Dalong is going to try his luck, with such an expensive ticket, those who are willing to bring their own pet dogs are either rich or expensive people, those people can raise Chinese pastoral dogs
Tickets for visiting alone without pets are not particularly expensive. For 300 tickets, as long as you can get a dog, you will get back the principal and interest. Not long after entering the park, they encountered two pets who were alone. They made a decisive decision and injected the Alaskan bitch and male Teddy who looked close to adulthood. In the name of the owners of the two dogs, they swaggered Come out of the park.
Alaska has been very popular in the dog market these years, especially what they abducted is a good-looking female dog. According to her current age, she is mated twice a year, giving birth to five or six litters each time. Even if it is tens of thousands, if you think it is troublesome, you can sell this bitch to those irregular kennels, and you can sell it for several thousand.
Although Teddy is not as expensive as Alaska, but the elderly have raised more, small profits but quick turnover, it is also an income.
Calculated in this way, their harvest today is not bad.
"Brother Wan, do you think we won't expose it?" There must be a lot of cameras in that kind of place, and if the owner of the lost dog is capable, wouldn't they all pay for it
"What are you afraid of, we are wearing masks, even if we are photographed, what can we photograph, besides, our cars are all license plates, how capable are you when you have time to walk the dog Ah, the chief of the Public Security Bureau, can someone like the mayor still have time to walk the dog?"
Wan Dalong retorted with a mouthful of smoke rings, but it was the first time for him to kidnap a dog so blatantly today, and it seems that the risk is still relatively high, so it’s fine to take such a risk once, and it will still be the old rule in the future, go to the park It's safer to check out spots with old communities.
The chief of the Public Security Bureau doesn't have time to walk the dog, but he can't keep his daughter, his son will.
The little brother sitting in the co-pilot seat didn't dare to refute the big brother's words. He turned his head and glanced at the compartment. He saw today's harvest, seven breeds of dogs, and more than a dozen Chinese pastoral dogs that were randomly caught and prepared to be meat dogs. , silently converted these dozens of dogs into income in his heart, grinned, and didn't take Wan Dalong's criticism seriously.
He only has a junior high school education, and now those classmates are either working as security guards or moving bricks on the construction site. Who can have a chic life like him, driving a van on the street every day, easily earning tens of thousands of dollars a month , Now that I have bought a house and a car, I will work for a few more years and go back to my hometown to marry a wife. What worries will I have in this life.
As for how painful it would be for those who lost their pets, it was simply out of their consideration.
Those people are so rich, it would be nice to buy another pet. Besides, seeing how they treat their pets as their ancestors, I don’t know if they are so filial to their own parents, and they stole their dogs, parents and cats. Dad, maybe it's a good thing to benefit the elderly.
"Aww!"
While the two were talking, a dog barked suddenly from outside.
"Get out of the car and have a look, is there a dog running out?" The two who were smoking pinched their cigarettes and ran out vigilantly.
"Brother, do you think we should go to say goodbye today? Why are we so lucky?"
Outside the car, an Alaskan dog that was close to the competition level was wagging its tail and watching them, and did not make any resistance to their approach.
Without thinking about it, Wan Dalong and his little brother restrained the Alaskan dog that appeared suddenly, then opened the back compartment of the van, chose a big empty cage and locked it up.
"Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
"Hehe, the relationship is still a pair of mandarin ducks. Brother, do you think this male Alaskan dog came here after this female dog?"
"Who knows, anyway, it's a good thing for us. Now that we have a male and a female together, and they are all in such perfect appearance, the puppies that will be born by then will definitely sell for a good price. This time we will earn a lot of money." big."
Wan Dalong didn't think too much about it, it would be great to have such a harvest today, they have to go back quickly when the traffic police check is not strict, otherwise if they are stopped by the traffic police, it will be enough for them to eat a pot.
From the beginning to the end, Yan Chu didn't resist at all, and was obediently shrunk into the box. Because of his cooperation, Wan Dalong didn't give him anesthesia in order to save money, and kept him awake until the car drove into a strange place. In the courtyard.
The cages in the rear compartment were lifted out of the car one by one and locked in a dark room. Pairs of dark green eyes raised up after seeing someone enter the door, and then lowered their heads again, with a numb expression without any fluctuations.
Stacked cages one after another, together with the newly captured dogs like Yan Chu, in a small room, there are actually 40 or 50 breed dogs locked up, obviously all of them were stolen by those people.
The cramped room was filled with the stench of dog feces and urine, as well as the smell of some poor-quality dog food. The air was cloudy and extremely smelly. The two men put the dog cage in the room smoothly, as if they were unwilling to endure such a difficult situation. Smelling the smell, he quickly backed out.
Yan Chu raised his ears, and after hearing the sound of the room being locked, he flexibly opened the cage that locked him from inside the cage.
"Aww—"
The dog legs circled around in the cage excitedly, and then looked at Yan Chu expectantly. As for the male Teddy, he was still tirelessly shining in the air, seemingly completely unaware of his situation at this time.
Yan Chu ignored the dog's legs, looked around the furnishings in the room, fixed his target on a ventilated window, jumped onto the dog cage, and then jumped onto another layered dog cage from this point. Go up, jump three times in a row, and jump on the open window.
The location of the window is not big, and there is a layer of anti-theft windows on the outside. With the density of the anti-theft windows, Yan Chu's size simply cannot get through. Fortunately, in order to save money, the anti-theft windows used by those dog thieves are of slightly lower quality. With only a little bit of effort, Yan Chu bit open two of the bars, and smoothly slipped out through the gap in the window.
"Aww!"
I was abandoned like this? Dogleg was dumbfounded.
*****
At this time, all the monitoring in the park was adjusted, and it was clear at a glance how the dog leg and the teddy were swaggered away from the cute pet paradise by two strange men wearing masks.
What made people even more speechless was Yan Chu's departure. He was just following a tourist with a pet, and the security at the door automatically recognized him as another pet of that tourist, and let him go without any doubts. Pet Paradise left.
It's all messed up. The director can almost imagine how the cute pet park will be criticized after such a mistake is reported. With such a big safety hazard, will anyone still want to bring their pets to the amusement park in the future
It was just a pet loss problem, but it exposed many problems in the cute pet park. Fortunately, it was still in the early stage of trial operation, and the director didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune.
Now all they can do is call the police. The value of the two abducted breed dogs has already constituted a crime.
Encountering such an accident, Zhuoxi and Lin Chen must be the brothers and sisters who are most saddened. To them, Ala and Gouleg are not only pets, but also family members.
Especially Lin Xiang, the guilt almost overwhelmed her.
"Aunt Wang, I want to have an operation."
After learning about Ala's disappearance, Aunt Wang hurriedly left her daughter and son-in-law and ran back to Zhuo's house. She knew what Ala meant to Zhuoxi, and it was the only pillar that supported Zhuoxi's survival after Zhuowei's death. up.
But Aunt Wang really didn't expect that after she came here, the first sentence she heard was not her painful self-blame.
"Okay, okay, you finally figured it out." Aunt Wang was about to cry with joy, she had been waiting for Zhuoxi's words for so many years.
Zhuoxi's eye problems are not incurable. In the past, it was because her eyes had not recovered enough to accept corneal transplantation. Later, it was Zhuoxi's own resistance, psychological and physical fear that made her afraid of the day when her eyesight would be restored. .
Ordinary people may not understand Zhuoxi's thoughts, why choose to give up when there is a chance to see the light again, Aunt Wang is also one of those who don't understand, but she is not Zhuoxi after all, the pain and pressure she endured is What she couldn't understand was that as two independent individuals, she couldn't make any decisions for her.
It doesn't matter if she escapes or is cowardly, she is the only one who can control her body, so what Aunt Wang can do is to persuade her from time to time, as for whether to agree or not, that is up to her to decide.
But today, Zhuoxi let go and agreed to undergo corneal transplantation.
And Zhuoxi, who made this decision, was not as nervous as she had imagined before, and when she really uttered this sentence, she felt a sense of relief, as expected.
In fact, as early as a few years ago, Zhuoxi's eyes were able to undergo corneal transplantation, but at that time Zhuoxi didn't dare, she only had an elder brother, if her eyes returned to normal, would her elder brother no longer be the same as before? Paining her like that, turning the eyes that were originally on her to someone else.
For Zhuo Xi, who was never expected to be loved by her parents since she was a child, there is no one more important than her elder brother Zhuo Wei in the world.
Some people may think that her behavior is too selfish, but when you are drowning, as the only straw that can be pulled, who is willing to let go.
After her brother died of stomach cancer, Zhuo Xi lived with guilt almost day and night. She couldn't help but wonder if her brother would not have to work so hard if she had received a corneal transplant earlier, would he not have stomach cancer? Zhuoxi felt that he was a sinner.
So even now that corneal transplant surgery is becoming more and more mature, Zhuo Xi never thought about receiving corneal transplantation, because she felt that darkness was God's punishment for her selfishness.
But today, Zhuoxi suddenly regretted it.
At the beginning, because of her selfishness and cowardice, she missed her brother. Now, because of her avoidance, does she want to miss more people or things
In her mind, the only thing that left a deep impression on her was her brother when she was a child. As for her brother when she grew up, she could only rely on her sense of touch to have a vague idea. , I want to see the appearance of Ala, and the appearance of many, many people around me. She doesn't want to be like the pain when she lost her brother, until she loses everything, and then regrets it.
Zhuoxi felt that she could no longer escape.
She wants to get Allah back, and she wants to take a good look at how handsome and well-behaved her Allah is.
*****
The house that Luo Xu rents is a one-bedroom household. It is said to be a one-bedroom household, but in fact it is a small apartment that the owner of the house in the outer ring has not been demolished. There are seven or eight households. There are one-bedroom households like Luo Xu’s, and there are also two-bedroom households rented out to some small families. There are many such houses in this area, and the renters are ordinary people who are migrant workers, or just graduated. In a few years, a young man with a low salary.
There are also high earners like Luo Xu, but not many.
Ever since he delivered textbooks to his sister and met his sister's employer that day, Luo Xu has been obsessed with that gentle girl, but he himself knows the gap between himself and that girl, even if the other party has physical defects, they are still not suitable for each other that one.
But Luo Xu had some hope in his heart, looking forward to the chance to see that girl again.
"Why didn't you go to Miss Zhuo's house to help walk the dog today." Seeing that his sister came back earlier than usual, Luo Xu asked suspiciously.
"Don't mention it, Ala is lost, and Xiaoxi is going crazy." Russell never took his eyes off the phone. Luo Xu glanced at it and found that his sister kept reposting about Ala and several other lost pets in Moments. At the same time, I don’t forget to post on several forums with relatively large traffic, and do my part.
The dog named Ala is lost? Luo Xu's heart tightened, Zhuoxi must be very sad.
"I'm going to take out the trash."
Luo Xu didn't show it, and mentioned the garbage that had been piled up at home for two days and went downstairs. There is a unified garbage dump in this area, and all the garbage will be collected every morning.
Wearing slippers and carrying a garbage bag, Luo Xu was hiding something in his heart and didn't pay much attention to the surrounding environment.
"Aw!"
With a somewhat familiar dog barking, Luo Xu pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and looked not far away, and what appeared in front of him was the Alaska Allah that his sister was thinking about.
Luo Xu had seen Ala's photo on his sister's phone countless times, and he would never admit it.
Before he had time to think about why the other party appeared here, Luo Xu's first reaction was to quickly call his sister and ask her to inform Zhuoxi.
"Aww!" Yan Chu yelled twice, then stepped forward and grabbed Luo Xu's trousers, leading him to the yard where countless stolen dogs were kept.
In fact, he didn't expect that everything was so coincidental. After being sent to Aunt Wang by Zhuoxi, Yuangou in his previous life sneaked out and wanted to return to Zhuoxi, the real master, but not long after leaving Wang's house, he was caught by a The gang of dog thieves was targeted, and that gang of dog thieves was the few people he met today.
All the encounters were ahead of schedule, and the fate between Yan Chu and the gang of dog thieves had also been advanced several years.
Therefore, he canceled his original plan to rescue the dog leg and other dogs from the van, because he knew that the gang behind Wan Dalong was not only the two of them, but also the pet dogs and stray dogs who died in their hands every year. They are all counted by thousands. If they are not completely wiped out, there will only be more innocent dogs and innocent people victimized in the future.
It's just that in the previous life, Yuangou was locked in a dark room after he was abducted, and was treated as a breeding dog until he was old and sent to the slaughterhouse. Yuangou didn't know about it. The master who has been thinking about it, is actually so close.
In his previous life, Luo Xu couldn't afford an expensive house, so he chose to buy a small second apartment in the area where he used to rent, and the small courtyard where countless sins were hidden was not far from the second apartment. , that yard is also very close to the one-bedroom apartment that Luo Xu is renting now.
Originally, Yan Chu wanted to go to Luo Xu's rented house to find him, but he didn't expect to bump into him alone on the road.
Luo Xu saw that Ala was in a hurry, so he just sent a text message to his sister in a hurry, and then walked towards the direction Yan Chu dragged.
What Yan Chu took him to was the backyard of the small courtyard. There was a window high up on a stone wall, and it was close to the stone wall. The groans and shouts of some small dogs could be faintly heard.
Luo Xu's expression froze, thinking about the messages about the dog lost with Yan Chu that his sister forwarded in Moments, he probably guessed what Yan Chu wanted to show him.
He is a smart man, he did not fight those dog thieves single-handedly, but when no one noticed Yan Chu's disappearance, he dragged Yan Chu away from that place quietly, after walking far away, took out his mobile phone, dialed Called 110 for the police.
*****
"Allah!"
"Dogleg!"
Feeling Yan Chu's familiar body temperature, Zhuo Xi wept with joy, thinking that she might never see it again in her life.
The same is true for Lin Chen, looking at the dog leg that kept digging into his arms, he clearly knew that all this was caused by its mischief, but he couldn't get angry, thinking of the possible harm it might have suffered, he felt grateful and thankful that it was too late , how can you still be willing to scold it.
Most of the people present who were notified by the police to claim their lost pets reported the same thing as these two people, holding the pets that had lost weight and dirtiness, and none of them had any disgusted expressions on their faces. Crying and laughing, mixed with the excited cries of the pets, transformed the serious police station into a lively stage, and staged scenes of joyful reunion.
This is what Luo Xu saw after finishing the notes.
Lin Chen and Zhuo Xi embraced their respective pets, and the two pets surrounded each other. The dog legs should have realized that it was the rescuer brought by the other party. They wanted to express their affection by licking Allah's hair, but Allah waved their paws in disgust. Pushing away, Lin Chen hugged the dog's leg with one hand, and carefully protected Zhuo Xi with the other. Obviously there were other people present, but their atmosphere always made it impossible for others to get in.
Luo Xu was a little frustrated. At first, he thought that with Allah's ties, he would have a chance, but before it was time for him to fight, he had already lost.
That pair of Bi people is a good match, they are people of the same world.
Accepting the gratitude of those owners who found their pets, Luo Xu heaved a long sigh of relief. Maybe he should let it go and treat it as a beautiful dream. Now that he wakes up from the dream, people always look forward.

"Ara, don't you run too fast."
Another year of Qingming, a girl in a black dress walked up the steps up the mountain, and said to the Alaskan dog running in front, her eyes were clear and lively, completely no longer dull as before.
Zhuoxi made an appointment for a corneal transplant after Yan Chu came back, and in the second year she successfully received the corneal donation, and the operation was a success.
Today she came to pay homage to her brother, and it was also the first time that she could have a private conversation with her brother without being accompanied by anyone.
The person in the photo is 50% similar to Zhuoxi, except that his facial features are more heroic, his face is more angular, and his smile is gentle, which is almost the same as Zhuoxi's expected brother.
Gossiping, Zhuoxi told her elder brother about her experience of this year, happy and unhappy, of course the focus was on Ala, but this time there was a stranger at the center of her topic, that is, suddenly Lin Chen who broke into her life.
Of course, there is another important point. She sat next to her brother's tombstone and told her brother that she finally mustered up the courage to do a corneal transplant. Now she can finally see his face clearly. Acknowledge your mistake.
"Brother, I'm sorry."
This sentence was buried in Zhuoxi's heart for a long time.
"Brother, thank you."
This sentence is also what Zhuoxi has always wanted to say.
"Ara, it's time to go home."
The sky gradually darkened, and after finishing all he wanted to say, Zhuo Xi waved to Yan Chu who was squatting like a guardian knight not far away, and tied the dog leash he was holding on his hand for him. Then one person and one dog disappeared into the night.
At the foot of the mountain, a handsome and tall man had been waiting for some time. When he saw Zhuo Xi and Yan Chu coming down from the mountain, a fat Alaska beside him roared happily.
In the expectant eyes of the other party, Zhuo Xi took the initiative to hold the other party's hand.
The dog legs also wanted to dog legs to get close to Yan Chu, but unfortunately they were suppressed by force again, and they didn't even have the chance to lick each other.
Zhuo Xi and Lin Chen looked at the pet and made fun of it, and smiled at each other.
As it is now, that's fine.
