Chapter 122 First Release on Jinjiang Literature City

Scar-faced Ying Ge had just finished speaking when everyone in the room instantly became alert.

“Change location.”

Ying Ge decisively ordered everyone present: “Don’t bring the dog.”

At a time like this, bringing the dog would only be a burden.

The man who had taken the dog was a bit reluctant; he wasn’t done feeling nostalgic yet.

Ying Ge drew a military knife and approached the dog.

“Wait.”

The man who took the dog was stunned: “Ying Ge, you’re not going to kill the dog, are you?”

Ying Ge raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with banditry: “I’ve killed plenty of people; do you think I’d leave behind two dogs that have seen us every time?”

The man: “...”

The man wasn’t kind either, but he was still fond of the dog right now, so he tried to protect it a bit.

Seeing Ying Ge showed no mercy, he shrugged and didn’t insist.

“Fine, then. At worst, I’ll get two more later.”

After playing enough, they’d stew dog meat hot pot.

The tied-up dog looked at the cold gleam of the military knife, eyes full of agitation.

“Woof!”

The dog barked once, but the bark only made the anxious Ying Ge speed up.

Outside, Bai Li hadn’t even waited for his master and the reinforcements before he saw the dog about to be harmed.

He anxiously paced around.

The dog was tied up, unable to run or hide.

“Meow-ao!!!”

Stop!

Just as the knife tip was about to stab the dog, the snow-white little kitten suddenly slammed open the window and darted inside.His sudden dash inside startled everyone in the room.

Among the tied-up dogs, one was the black wild dog that once carried the little kitten to the urban village live streaming base.

Seeing the kitten, its eyes suddenly widened.

The inevitable fear in the face of death instantly vanished at this moment.

“Woof!!!”

Kitten, run!

The wild dog urgently urged the kitten who had barged in. At this moment, it would rather die here itself than let this kitten suffer any harm.

It was born a wild dog, unguarded, struggling through these years, a lowly life.

But the little kitten was different.

The wild dog clearly remembered this kitten was loved by many. It was cared for by many, so it must not be harmed.

“Woof, woof woof!”

The wild dog barked frantically, desperately struggling against the leash, trying to rush forward to bite.

Ying Ge’s knife movements were disrupted by the kitten. By the time he reacted, the roof was almost torn apart by the meows and barks.

Hei Ge saw this and tried to catch the kitten.

But Bai Li was small and nimble, darting around freely, beyond his reach.

Bai Li wasn’t just running wild; he was knocking over tables and chairs, causing chaos, all around the dog, keeping them at some distance from it.

“Damn, is this cat possessed or what?”

Ying Ge got hit on the foot by one of the chairs and lost his patience. Since he couldn’t reach the kitten, he simply used his gun.

“Bang bang bang—”

Ying Ge retreated with his men, firing shots inside at the kitten and the dog.

Most shots were aimed at Bai Li.

The reason was simple: ever since the little kitten dashed inside, he was actively drawing all the hatred onto himself.

After the gunfire, no one checked carefully whether they hit anything; they just quickly left.

The place was already compromised; before long, that woman would arrive. They couldn’t be bothered with anything anymore.

Outside.

Before Xie Chen arrived, he already heard the gunfire.

His heart instantly turned cold.

Li Li.Li Li was still there.

Black-footed Cat’s hands and feet were cold too; he was waiting for the police to arrive and provide support...

The gunfire alarmed everyone.

Xie Chen, Black-footed Cat, and Bai Rong in uniform all rushed to the source of the sound as fast as possible.

The experienced criminal group knew very well how to find hiding spots.

This place was obviously very suitable for an escape.

When Bai Rong and Xie Chen met at the door, they exchanged a glance.

Bai Rong frowned, wondering why there was someone here.

Xie Chen didn’t look at her; with a face as cold as water, he pushed the door open, urgently searching for Bai Li’s figure.

A few seconds later.

The motionless little kitten on the ground caught their eyes.

Xie Chen: “...”

Looking at the fallen kitten, Xie Chen felt all his blood freeze instantly; a chill spread from his heart, making his face paler than ever before.

“No one’s in the room, go after them.”

Bai Rong glanced inside, found no criminals, and naturally didn’t notice the kitten hidden behind a chair. She turned to leave, but suddenly Xie Chen’s hoarse “Li Li” stopped her.

Xie Chen’s hands trembled as he carefully lifted the kitten from the ground.

The kitten’s fur was still stained with blood.

“Li Li, open your eyes and look at me.”

Xie Chen pressed his forehead against the kitten’s, his eyes red as he called out.

Bai Rong made a gesture to her subordinates to continue the chase and quickly walked toward Xie Chen.

When she saw the kitten in his arms clearly, this usually calm, resourceful, and always rational woman momentarily went blank.

What’s going on?

Why is her baby here?

Xie Chen, holding the kitten, didn’t waste time crying, confessing, or pleading like in a drama.

He took out his phone and directly dialed Bai Si’s number.

“Li Li was shot.”

This news almost shattered the sleepy, lazy Bai Si’s soul.After finishing the call with Bai Si, Xie Chen carried Bai Li and headed out.

Bai Rong blocked him.

“Tell Fourth Brother, no matter what it takes, keep Li Li safe for me.”

After saying this, Bai Rong lowered her head and kissed the unconscious kitten.

“Baby, wait for sister to get revenge for you.”

She was Li Li’s biological sister. Right now, Li Li’s condition was unknown, life and death uncertain. She should have been with her Li Li.

But she couldn’t.

She had to catch those bad people as soon as possible.

Otherwise, in this city, more people would keep losing their loved ones and suffer despair.

Handing the kitten to Xie Chen, Bai Rong clenched her pistol tightly, swallowed her tears, and charged out with hatred and determination.

A bunch of scum.

She would never let them get away again.

When Xie Chen arrived, he started the car, placed the kitten on his lap, and quickly headed to reunite with Bai Si.

Back in the room just now.

Black-footed Cat stepped forward and untied the two dogs’ leashes. Thanks to the kitten drawing the enemy’s attention, the dogs weren’t hit by bullets.

“Woof.”

The black wild dog reported to Black-footed Cat: “The bullets just grazed past the kitten’s body.”

“Black Brother, the kitten’s head hit the table; he’s been knocked out. When will he wake up now?”

Black-footed Cat: “?”

Black-footed Cat was stunned: “Li Li wasn’t hit by bullets?”

“No.”

The wild dog shook his head to deny: “He accidentally bumped into the table at the end.”

Also, the bullet grazed him, didn’t hit directly, but he still bled.

Originally feeling sad, Black-footed Cat finally didn’t feel so down after confirming this.

He led the two dogs with their leashes untied out.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you back. Don’t wander outside again this time. Go to the doghouse.”

The doghouse was built for the dogs to stay in and keep warm through winter.

These two dogs originally didn’t want to go, thinking they could survive outside. They wanted to leave the doghouse to dogs who needed it more.Unexpectedly, while wandering outside, they were conveniently taken away.

Black-footed Cat, with the two dogs, planned to take them to the doghouse, but first to the vet for a checkup.

The dogs thought it was a waste of time but were forcibly arranged by Black Brother.

“I collected protection fees, so I should protect you. Stop complaining and go to the hospital.”

Here, the dogs were undergoing physical examinations.

Elsewhere,

Urgent Bai Si notified Bai Lin, Tan Yi, and Bai Liu.

At that time, Tan Yi was recording an interview. The assistant had long been instructed that any news about Li Li must be relayed to him immediately.

So when the assistant heard the first words from the call, “Li Li was shot and unconscious,” they were so scared they rushed over to call Tan Yi.

“Tan Ge, Li Li was injured and still hasn’t woken up.”

Tan Yi, chatting happily with the host, suddenly changed expression, grabbed his phone, and ran out.

Bai Liu in the lab dropped the experiment he was about to progress on, and without hesitation, took off his lab coat and left.

Jinjin followed behind, still asking, “What’s wrong?”

Bai Liu didn’t have time to answer, his white curls fluttering wildly in the wind because he ran so fast.

At Bai Si’s home,

The little kitten was gently laid flat by Fourth Brother as he spread out his paws.

When Xie Chen arrived, he checked his heartbeat — luckily, it was normal.

“Li Li isn’t unconscious from being shot.”

Bai Si quickly examined him roughly and breathed a sigh of relief.

“There’s a bump on his head — he must have hit it hard, that’s why he’s unconscious.”

As for the blood, it was just a scrape.

Compared to the wound of a bullet entering flesh, this injury was much easier to treat.

After hearing this news, Xie Chen visibly calmed down.

That night was chaotic and filled with the smell of blood.

Xie Chen and several Bai brothers guarded the precious little kitten, unwilling to leave his side.

By dawn,

The knocked-out little kitten slowly opened his eyes halfway.“Meow.” Dizzy.

The little kitten tried to lift his paw to cover his head, but before he could, he realized he couldn’t move his paw.

“Meow!”

The little kitten looked horrified at his paw, all wrapped up like a rice dumpling — how badly must it be injured?

Originally, he only felt a bit dizzy, but seeing his paw like that, he felt even weaker.

The weak meow caught Xie Chen’s attention first.

“Li Li.”

Seeing him awake, Xie Chen’s tense heart slowly relaxed.

“Does anything hurt? We’re at your Fourth Brother’s place now.”

Bai Li: “Meow.”

Everything hurts.

Feeling like a little crippled kitten, his beautiful amber eyes moist, he meowed and asked, “Sir, do I not have a paw anymore?”

His paw was wrapped too thickly, so he couldn’t feel it at all.

Xie Chen: “…”

Xie Chen gently squeezed his paw.

“Good boy, your paw is still there.”

“Your Fourth Brother wrapped your leg because he saw your paw pads were a bit scraped, so he applied medicine and wrapped it up.”

Applied medicine and wrapped it up?

The little kitten looked at his paw and thought, fine, as long as the paw is still there, it’s okay to be wrapped like a dumpling.

“Meow, meow meow.”

Sir, have they caught the bad guys?

Bai Li had fallen unconscious too early and didn’t see the end, so naturally, he didn’t know that his especially loved Second Sister had given him a kiss.

“The bad guys are being caught.”

Xie Chen thought of that bold woman who briefly made contact — she should be Li Li’s Second Sister.

That woman carried a ruthlessness forged by blood — if she’s going after someone, they probably won’t get away.

As the two talked, Xie Chen hadn’t yet told him about his Second Sister, but the Bai brothers standing nearby weren’t happy being ignored.

“Li Li.”

Tan Yi walked over, picked up the little kitten, avoiding his bandages, and gently stroked him.“Don’t do such dangerous things anymore. If you want to do something, just tell your brothers, okay?”

Bai Li didn’t say a word.

His brothers were all very busy, and going to find the dogs with Hei Zu Mao…

How could he ask his brothers to drop their work and search the whole city for him?

Besides, if this time he had taken a reckless risk, by the time Sir and the police arrived, the dogs in the house would have been dead.

Two wild dogs, two dogs who both thought their lives were worthless, but in the little kitten’s eyes, they were not lowly.

Because he himself was a cat.

Why would a cat think that a dog’s life is not precious?
