After special training, William has obviously become much gentler and rarely attacks others like this.

But today, when it saw the man in the conference room, it seemed to have instantly returned to the state it was in a few months ago, with armor erected all over its body, and a low growl in its throat, full of hostility and anger.

It rushed forward, knocked the middle-aged man to the ground, bared its sharp teeth, and tried to bite him.

"William!"

Xiao He shouted hurriedly, but William seemed to have no response.

She walked over quickly, put her hand on William’s back, and stroked it gently.

"It's okay."

Xiao He's tone was gentler than ever before.

With her comfort, the furious wolfhound slowly calmed down, but the anger in its eyes did not dissipate, and it still stared at the person in front of it with a fierce look.

At this time, the middle-aged man who was pressed to the ground by it was so scared that his face turned pale and he started shouting.

"Mad dog! Take it away now! This damn dog even dared to bite me! I'll teach you a lesson when we get back!"

He stood up cursing, his slightly plump figure obviously showing some lack of exercise. He staggered several times as he stood up, panting, his greasy hair hanging on his forehead, his face flushed, clearly the face of someone who had been drinking heavily for a long time.

At this moment, he looked at William angrily in his triangular eyes, without any love for his beloved pet.

At this time, Brother Jian came over with a bad look on his face.

It was hard to tell whether it was because of William's attack or because of the man's undisguised cursing.

"Let me introduce you. This is Zhu Hao. He claims that William is the legacy left by his uncle and wants to take him back."

"What do you mean by claim? It is what it is!"

Zhu Hao said confidently, "My uncle just died last year. I'm his only relative. It's only natural that I should inherit his property, including this dog. You've seen the photo. Can you let William go with me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, William let out another low growl from his throat. If Xiao He hadn't held him back, he might have already pounced on him.

Xiao He spoke in a very calm voice while stroking its head to comfort it.

"I found William at the garbage dump."

Zhu Hao rubbed his nose, looking a little impatient.

"Oh, I lost it accidentally. I was busy dealing with my uncle's funeral at the time, and who knew it would sneak out."

Having said that, he looked at Brother Jian and Xiao He, then he sighed deeply, sadness overflowing from his face.

"I've been looking for it for the past six months since it went missing. I don't know how much effort it took, and I couldn't even sleep well. If I hadn't accidentally seen it on TV, I wouldn't have known that William was picked up by you. William, you can finally come home with me."

As Zhu Hao spoke, he wanted to touch William to show the deep affection between them, but as soon as he raised his hand, William bared his teeth, and he was so scared that he quickly retracted his hand.

He silently uttered a Chinese curse, then smiled awkwardly at Xiao He.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time. It may not remember me."

"Dogs have good memories and can remember many things for a lifetime." Xiao He said.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Hao remembered something and showed a trace of panic on his face. He then said, "I've shown you the photos. The dog is indeed the same dog. Now, can you return William to me? This is my uncle's legacy. I promised to take good care of him."

He almost cried on the spot when he said that, but Xiao He was not moved at all.

"That photo does show William, but I can't give it to you."

"Why?"

Zhu Hao worked hard instantly.

Xiao He: "When I picked it up, William still had injuries on his body. The veterinarian judged that he was probably abused."

Upon hearing this, before Xiao He could ask, Zhu Hao immediately raised his voice to refute.

"He's my grandfather's darling. I'm usually very kind to him. How could I possibly abuse him? Who knows if he ran away and stole someone's food, and that's why he got beaten like that?"

As he was speaking, he suddenly looked at Xiao He with an angry face.

"You're saying so much, aren't you trying to take over my dog ​​and make money from it?"

Xiao He frowned but said nothing.

Zhu Hao seemed to be even more certain of his guess, and he shouted angrily:

"I've heard that this dog is making a lot of money now, starring in commercials and appearing on TV shows. Where's all that money? Did you guys embezzle it?"

Xiao He frowned and explained, "Most of William's income was used to pay for his medical expenses in the hospital, daily expenses, and the cost of hiring a dog trainer. With the remaining money, I plan to set up a stray dog ​​care foundation to help stray dogs."

Hearing this, Zhu Hao unexpectedly became even angrier.

"Waste! After I bring William back, you must immediately transfer all of his income to my card. I am William's owner and I have the right to control this money."

From the moment he appeared, Brother Jian looked unhappy.

Having signed a contract with Blue Star Entertainment, he is a member (or dog) of the company. Does he want to go back?

dream!

Hearing Zhu Hao's words, he angrily said, "Then you should first pay William's medical expenses for the past six months, as well as the training fees, and the mental damage compensation for the times he scared people before."

Zhu Hao turned his back on him.

"I didn't ask you to treat it."

Hearing this, Brother Jian took a deep breath in anger.

He had seen so many monsters in the entertainment industry, but this was the first time he had seen someone so shameless.

"Then don't even think about taking William away!"

Brother Jian rarely showed his toughness, but he was forced into a corner and looked like he wanted to rush over and fight with him.

Zhu Hao immediately raised his voice and cursed the sky and the earth.

"I knew your company had no good intentions. You only knew how to bully us powerless people. You took my dog ​​and now you won't return it! If you don't return it, we'll see you in court! Let's see what the judge says!"

As he spoke, he took a few photos on the table.

Those photos were taken when William was a child with his old master.

With these things, the judge would naturally rule him as William's master.

It seems that Zhu Hao came here well prepared.

Hearing this, Brother Jian's face turned ashen with anger, but he was shaken in his heart. If he really went to court, he might not be able to keep the dog.

He turned and looked at Xiao He inquiringly.

Xiao He's gaze fell on William.

From the moment Zhu Hao took out the photos, William was stunned, then gradually calmed down and kept staring at the photo with his old master on the table.

Xiao He patted its head and said, "I won't let you take William away."

Her voice was calm and a little gentle, yet extremely firm, with an unshakable belief.

"Then we'll see you in court! At worst, we'll fight to the death. I'm alone anyway, and I'm not afraid of those wearing shoes. I'm just afraid of you. I heard you have a few celebrities under your command? Don't even think about escaping when the time comes!"

Zhu Hao said angrily.

He thought that this would scare Xiao He and make him hand over William and settle the matter peacefully.

Unexpectedly, Xiao He's gaze was as calm as ever, and he looked straight into his eyes calmly.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

After saying that, he took William out of the meeting room.

Behind him, Zhu Hao was stunned for two seconds, then started cursing loudly.

Brother Jian followed Xiao He out and asked anxiously, "Are you really not going to give William to him? If it goes to court, it might affect you, as well as Huo An and the others..."

He was a little worried.

Domestic laws regarding pets are not sound. If it really comes to the legal issue, to be honest, Xiao He has little chance of winning.

At that time, not only will William be sent away, but Xiao He, as her agent, and other artists under her will also be implicated.

Not only did he lose the wife, but he also lost his army.

Hearing this, Xiao He turned to look at William beside him.

Ever since seeing Zhu Hao, the wolfhound has become stiff, its fur has stood on end, its tail hangs heavily on the ground, and it exudes a fierce aura that is not to be trifled with, as if it has returned to the past.

Seeing it like this, Xiao He would never send it back no matter what.

"Even if the hope is slim, we must give it a try. As for the others..."

Xiao He took out his phone and sent a message in the group:

The man who abused William has come to the company. He wants William back, or he'll go to court. What do you think?

Less than a minute after sending the message, I received a reply.

Huo An: [He still dares to come back and ask for William?! Does he have any shame?]

Xu Yizhou: [Is he crazy? Let him go to court! Are we still afraid of him?]

Wen Keke: [Is this B still in the company? If I go back now, can I still seize this last chance and beat him up?]

Zhong Zichuan: [Captain, don't give it to him! William has finally started a new life, he can't go back and be abused by him!]

After seeing the news, Xiao He turned to Brother Jian and said, "It's all right now."

Brother Jian was amazed.

"Although these artists under you are unreliable and a little weird, I didn't expect that they can always be so united when encountering problems."

As an artist, even he would hesitate about such matters. He didn't expect that Huo An and his group would express their attitude without even thinking about it.

Even if it affects his popularity, he has to keep William.

In this regard, he has surpassed many artists in the entertainment industry.

But what Brother Jian didn't know was that the reason why Huo An and the others were able to make such a quick judgment was not only because of their feelings for William, but also because they believed that even if they really became unpopular because of this incident, Xiao He would definitely have a way to make them popular again!

After determining the target, Xiao He sent another message in the group:

【Hurry back to the company for a meeting! 】

William's old master's surname is Zhu. He lives alone and owns a small villa in the suburbs. After earning enough money for retirement early, he retired and lived a pastoral life.

The old man was usually in good health, but he died in an accident after falling down the stairs.

Because he did not leave a will and had no wife or children, his estate was inherited by his only nephew.

Xiao He was currently in a villa in the suburbs, taking William to complete the final advertising shoot, when he received a message from Xu Yizhou on his phone.

I've asked the neighbors, and William's previous owner doesn't have any other relatives. He lives alone, with Zhu Hao the only one who visits occasionally. However, they say the old owner and Zhu Hao didn't have a good relationship, and they would argue whenever they met.

[As soon as the old man died, Zhu Hao moved in immediately.]

Every night, they could hear the dog barking. Then, a week later, William disappeared, and the neighbors thought he had beaten the dog to death.

[This beast, the old man loves William so much, he inherited the estate, and yet he still abuses the puppy!]

[Captain, you must not let William go back.]

Xiao He looked at the message on his phone and replied, "Got it."

She originally wanted to check whether the old man had other relatives and start with the victim, but she didn't expect that Zhu Hao was his only relative.

In this case, as long as Zhu Hao insists that he was not abandoned but lost, Xiao He's chances of winning are not great even if the case goes to court.

Just as he was thinking about it, the director came over and asked, "Xiao He, William is not in a good state today."

Hearing this, Xiao He turned around and looked.

William's condition has been off since he met Zhu Hao yesterday.

The hair that had been smoothed out with great difficulty stood up again, like thorns, hurting both yourself and others.

Although it was taking pictures at this time, it was no longer as friendly as the last time it came, especially its aura was completely different. Although it did not do anything, no staff dared to approach it rashly.

There was a gloomy look in his dark blue eyes as he sat there motionless.

Director: "Although its current appearance is consistent with the theme of the filming, it is still unsettling to look at."

"It's okay, it won't hurt."

Xiao He smiled at him reassuringly, walked over and squatted in front of the wolfhound.

"William."

William seemed to be in a daze until he heard a sound, then he noticed Xiao He coming over and wagged his tail gently.

"There's one last set left. After we finish filming, we'll go home and have something delicious. Jiang Ye will make it for you."

After saying that, he gently scratched its head.

William squinted his eyes comfortably, put his ears close to his chest, and gradually perked up.

Soon, the director waved his hand.

"The last group!"

Everyone got ready immediately.

Just as Xiao He was about to leave, he heard voices outside.

"I'm telling you! I'm William's master, why won't you let me in?"

Soon, Zhu Hao rushed in cursing, followed by two staff members who looked bewildered.

"Director, he insisted on coming in and we couldn't stop him."

The filming was interrupted and everyone turned around, looking curiously at the person who came in.

Zhu Hao was also looking at everyone present, his eyes immediately locked on William and Xiao He, and he walked over quickly.

Just as he was about to approach, he saw William's attacking attitude towards him, so he stopped and raised his voice to say to everyone:

"Everyone, listen up! William is my dog! He was my uncle's legacy. He accidentally got lost, and Xiao He found him and wanted to keep him for himself. He refused to give it back to me!"

"She used William to make money from commercials, but she refused to give me a penny. Everyone, please judge. Is she still a human being?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned for a moment and turned to look at Xiao He.

William has indeed become popular recently. Xiao He once said that she is William's owner, but what is going on now?

While everyone was hesitating, Zhu Hao had already started crying.

"I just want my dog ​​back now. It's the only thing my uncle left me. I've taken great pains to take care of it, feeding it the best food and using the best things. I wish it could live better than me. I really can't live without it."

Zhu Hao burst into tears and rushed to the camera. He said to the camera, "Everyone must help me and expose what Xiao He did. Otherwise, how can an ordinary person like me defeat her?"

He started throwing a tantrum and several staff members were unable to stop him.

The only sound on the entire filming scene was the crying of one person, his voice was shrill, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

Xiao He has been comforting William.

Otherwise, William would have rushed out from the first second Zhu Hao appeared.

Even now, it was pacing back and forth anxiously, growling constantly from its throat.

"Is this what you came here to say?"

Zhu Hao specifically inquired about Xiao He's schedule today and came here to make a big fuss, but he didn't expect that the other party seemed to be not affected at all and still looked unmoved.

He felt like he had punched cotton and became furious on the spot.

"I want to tell you that I have called the police and will use legal means to protect my interests and get my dog ​​back!"

"Your dog?"

When Xiao He heard this word, his eyes instantly became sharper and he said, "I'm giving it to you now. Do you dare to take it?"

As he said this, he pulled the furious William and slowly walked over.

The closer he got, the more agitated William became, and he almost broke free from the ropes and pounced several times.

Everyone was shocked by the scene before them.

After working together for a few days, everyone knew that William was a docile wolfhound, usually known for his good temper and willing to be hugged by anyone. This was the first time they saw him show such fierce hostility towards others.

A puzzled look fell on Zhu Hao.

Although Zhu Hao had been clamoring to snatch William back, he was suddenly scared when he saw William's ferocious look.

The William in front of him was no longer as weak as before. He had obviously grown into a big dog, and was even taller than the dogs he knew. His thick claws and sharp canine teeth seemed able to bite off a person's arm directly.

If Xiao He let go, he would definitely pounce on him.

Zhu Hao was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly.

"Of course I dare!"

He glanced at William in panic again, clearly seeing murderous intent in his blue eyes, but he still didn't dare to go over. He hurriedly said, "Wait! I'll find someone to take it back!"

After saying that, he was so scared that he turned around and ran away.

This action left everyone confused.

"What's going on? Didn't he say that he was William's master? Why is he afraid of William?"

"And have you noticed that William has been mean to him? I've never seen a dog be so mean to its owner..."

…

The staff members were talking in low voices.

The director found Xiao He with a worried look on his face, looked at William who was still restless, and seemed to have found the reason why something was wrong today.

"What's going on with that guy? Are the things he said true or false?"

Xiao He watched Zhu Hao's back slowly disappear and said, "I will resolve this matter as soon as possible."

The director was actually a little hesitant.

This kind of thing happened before the advertisement was even finished filming. If it is not handled properly, it will definitely have an impact on the brand in the future.

However, Xiao He was a very capable agent at the moment. Seeing her calmness, the director's heart slowly returned to his stomach. He nodded and said, "I think there's something wrong with that person. You should be careful and don't make a big fuss that affects the work."

Xiao He nodded.

"I know."

But for a shameless person like Zhu Hao, he will do anything to achieve his goal. In addition, William now has his own traffic, so it is impossible not to make a big fuss.

On that day, Zhu Hao's disturbance on the set was reported in the news.

In the report, Zhu Hao cried in front of the camera, saying that Xiao He had taken away his beloved pet and refused to return it. He also mentioned that he had a deep relationship with his uncle. Since his uncle's death, he has taken good care of William, and Xiao He has become a profit-seeking villain.

As soon as this news came out, it caused an immediate sensation.

At first, most people didn't believe it. After all, Xiao He has always had a good reputation in the industry and is efficient and decisive in his work. He is a well-known industry benchmark and doesn't seem like someone who would do such a thing.

But when Zhu Hao took out the photo of William and his old master, many people recognized the collar on it.

[It’s really William!]

[I remember Xiao He said that she picked William up from the garbage dump. This seems to align with what this person said. Could it be that he was found after being lost?]

[Don’t forget that William was dying at the time, and it was Xiao He who saved him. Now that he’s famous, he wants to come back and reap the rewards?]

[If you find it, it's found. The dog still belongs to someone else. If the owner comes looking for it, you have to return it. At most, you will be given some medical expenses.]

Even if it's the owner, he can't return it! I was on set the day the commercial was filmed, and when William saw this guy, he almost rushed over and bit him! Who knows how he treated William in the past?

[He abused our William?!]

…

The online discussion was extremely heated, with both sides holding their own views and arguing endlessly, which was unprecedentedly heated.

When Xiao He saw the news, he even received condolences from the company's top management.

The general manager called specifically to inquire.

"What's the story behind that news? What's the relationship between William and that guy named Zhu Hao?"

"I'm still investigating, but based on the evidence so far, William was indeed raised by his uncle."

Hearing this, there was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then the manager slowly said, "Do you know that I fed William several boxes of canned food during this period of time before I finally got familiar with him?"

Xiao He: "..."

How many boxes?

She heard from other employees that William had a very good temper, would give kisses and hugs as long as he was given a can, and would also actively cooperate with them in taking photos.

How come it turned into a few boxes of canned food when it got to the manager?

It seems that William is also a scheming guy who knows how to treat people differently.

Just as he was thinking about it, the manager took a deep breath and said, "Do you need legal assistance? Blue Star Entertainment has its own team of lawyers who are invincible. As long as we let them intervene in the settlement and offer a high price, Zhu Hao will definitely be tempted to sell William to the company."

Xiao He was not moved at all when he heard this suggestion.

"Giving him free money? I refuse."

Judging from Zhu Hao's performance in the past few days, he will definitely ask for a huge amount of money when the time comes.

First, he is not William's original owner, and second, he has abused William. Now he wants money?

dream!

The manager was anxious.

"So what are you going to do?"

Xiao He said calmly, "There are still some doubts about this matter. I plan to go to Zhu Hao's house tomorrow to see if I can find any clues."

Zhu Hao had no job and no fixed place to live before. Since he inherited the old master's estate, he has been living in his villa.

When Xiao He went there, she did not bring William with her, but asked Zhong Zichuan to go with her, and also brought a photographer.

When the door opened, Zhu Hao was seen drunkenly holding a bottle of wine in his hand. He looked behind the two of them and then clicked his tongue.

"I thought you were here to return the dog."

Xiao He said: "We want to see where William lived before."

Hearing this, Zhu Hao looked at the turned-on camera, drank, and nodded, saying, "Come on, come on, I'll show you. That dog originally belonged to me and lived right here. I still have all its things!"

After saying that, he led them inside quickly.

The yard was overgrown with weeds, which was very different from what it looked like in the previous photos. It was obvious that the new owner had not taken good care of it. Even the path leading in was overgrown with weeds, and a few mineral water bottles were scattered around.

As soon as I crossed the yard and reached the door, I saw some garbage piled on the ground.

In the photos Xiao He had seen, William's doghouse was where the garbage was, but it was gone now.

"After William got lost, I was very sad, so I put all his things back into the warehouse. I will take good care of him after he comes back."

As he spoke, Zhu Hao opened the door of the warehouse with a loud noise, and dust rose high.

The small warehouse was filled with miscellaneous items. Placed on the outermost side was a wooden doghouse, which should have been made by the old owner himself. The style was a bit old, but the burrs on it had been polished clean. William's name was also written on it, with powerful and penetrating strokes.

At this time, the doghouse was thrown diagonally in the corner.

Next to it were some small pet toys scattered here and there, and a brand new automatic pet feeder with a label still on it. It must have been bought not long ago, but now it was covered in dust.

Zhu Hao held a bottle of beer in his hand and said arrogantly, "See? These are all evidence that proves William was my uncle's dog. Now that he's dead, William is my dog."

Xiao He looked at the yard in front of him. Although more than half a year had passed, he could still vaguely see its previous appearance from this somewhat deserted yard.

At that time, William was still a puppy, running around in the yard, while his old owner was sitting in a rocking chair basking in the sun. What a beautiful picture it was!

At this moment, Zhong Zichuan walked over quickly, holding an iron chain in his hand. His face was slightly pale and he clenched his teeth, as if he was holding back his anger.

"Captain, look at this. I found it in the warehouse."

He handed over the chain in his hand.

The chain didn't look very thick, but it felt heavy in the hand. After wiping off the dust, you could see a layer of dark red and black material on it.

Xiao He picked it up with his fingers and touched it.

She was very familiar with this kind of thing.

After a zombie dies, the blood in its body will coagulate, but during the fight, it will still adhere to cold weapons. If it is not cleaned, it will turn into reddish-brown attachments like this over time.

"This is blood," she said.

At the end of the chain in front of me was a tattered collar with some gray dog ​​hair still on it. It was obviously a dog chain.

"This man is a dog abuser! It's covered in William's blood!" Zhong Zichuan said angrily.

He clenched his hands, his body trembling slightly with anger, and his eyes were fixed on Zhu Hao who was standing not far away with a beer in his hand.

Although Xiao He had a premonition in her heart, when she saw the chain, anger still surged in her chest, making her heart hurt a little.

"Do you want to explain this?"

Zhu Hao didn't seem to care at all.

"A dog is a dog, I beat him, what's there to explain? I beat a dog, not a person. I am William's master, I can do whatever I want to him, what's it to you?"

After saying that, he smiled at them proudly.

Seeing Zhong Zichuan's angry look, he became even more proud and said, "But don't worry, William is making so much money now, I can't wait to hold it, how can I bear to hit him?"

Hearing this, Zhong Zichuan was so angry that he wanted to rush over, but was stopped by Xiao He.

"Why did you hit William?"

Zhu Hao didn't seem to expect her to ask this question. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately became furious and said, "That little dog has been barking at me and trying to attack me since I moved in. Even if I hit it, it's still a light punishment! Disobedient dogs like this must be beaten! Who knew it would suddenly..."

He was halfway through his speech when he suddenly thought of something. His expression changed slightly, his eyes flickered, and he suddenly changed the subject and ordered Xiao He and the others to leave.

"Why am I telling you all this? You've seen everything there is to see. Come on, come on, get out! Remember to bring the dog with you next time!"

After saying that, he put down the beer bottle and pushed the photographer out.

Zhong Zichuan didn't want to leave and wanted to go in and argue with him, but no matter how he shouted, the other party refused to open the door. Instead, the neighbor who lived next door heard the noise and came out curiously.

"Are you here to look for Zhu Hao?"

An auntie who was picking vegetables was holding a basket in her hand and looking at their camera.

The distances between households in this villa area are not big, so if anything happens, it will definitely not escape the eyes of these aunts.

Xiao He smiled at her, walked over and asked, "Auntie, do you know about Zhu Hao?"

"I know. He's Lao Zhu's nephew. He used to come to Lao Zhu often to borrow money. Lao Zhu refused to lend it to him, and we even had a fight several times!"

She glanced at the Zhu family's gate and said, "He'll be blessed in the future. It's like pie in the sky. With the pension and this villa left by Old Zhu, he won't have to work for the rest of his life."

"Mr. Zhu used to have a puppy named William. Did you know that?"

"I know, it's very cute."

When William was mentioned, Auntie smiled and said, "Every day when Lao Zhu goes for a walk, he takes him with him, and he wags his tail whenever he sees people."

"Has it ever bitten anyone before?"

She shook her head repeatedly.

"How could such a cute puppy bite people?"

"You don't even bite Zhu Hao?" Xiao He asked.

"No. But..."

The aunt thought for a moment and continued, "It didn't bite before, but then Old Zhu fell down the stairs and died. On the day of the accident, William kept chasing it and barking, and even tried to rush over to bite it, but was kicked away by Zhu Hao. That puppy is so pitiful, you can often hear its screams in the middle of the night, and it's no use trying to persuade it."

As she said this, she let out a long sigh.

As soon as the aunt left, Zhong Zichuan came over immediately, filled with righteous indignation.

"Captain! It seems that he was the one who caused William's injuries!"

Xiao He nodded, thoughtfully.

"Don't you think it's strange? Auntie just said that William was very friendly to Zhu Hao before. Why did his attitude suddenly change after Mr. Zhu died? Moreover, he only bit Zhu Hao."

"Why?" Zhong Zichuan asked puzzledly.

Xiao He turned his head and looked at the villa in front of him, and said, "Tell me, did something happen that day?"

While Xiao He was busy investigating, Zhu Hao appeared on TV again.

He found a few gossip media and cried in front of the camera, accusing Xiao He of stealing his beloved dog and keeping it for himself.

The matter became more and more serious. For several consecutive days, Xiao He received thousands of inquiries from netizens, and even many of his colleagues in the company began to worry.

Just under such circumstances, the time for the court session arrived.

On that day, there were huge crowds of people outside the court. Many reporters were already waiting outside the door, and many netizens who wanted to find out the truth also rushed there.

As soon as Xiao He and William got out of the car, they were surrounded by people, with cameras and rifles pointed at them.

"Xiao He, Zhu Hao has produced evidence proving that the dog was indeed his. Why don't you return it to him?"

"William is very popular now. Are you refusing to return it because you want to make money from it?"

"What will you do if you lose today's trial?"

…

Reporters asked questions one after another.

Xiao He held William's hand and stood by the roadside. He didn't speak a word until everyone had finished asking questions. Then he finally said, "What happened is still under investigation. Now, I'm going in."

She glanced at everyone, and the noisy reporters quieted down, all of them intimidated by her gaze. No one dared to ask any more questions, but instead stepped aside to make way for them.

Xiao He nodded slightly

"Thanks."

After saying that, he took William inside.

As soon as I entered the court, Brother Jian was walking around anxiously.

As soon as he saw Xiao He come in, he hurriedly said, "I heard that Zhu Hao spent a lot of money to hire many lawyers and even created public opinion online. Now many netizens are on his side. What should we do?"

Xiao He seemed relatively calm.

"I see."

Recently, William has been appearing on TV shows frequently in order to increase his bargaining chips in this trial.

It is obvious that there is a master behind all these actions.

Just as I was thinking about it, Brother Jian whispered, "They are coming."

Turning around, Zhu Hao and several lawyers walked in from outside.

He changed his usual decadent drunkard look and actually dressed in a suit and tie, having made special preparations.

The lawyers around him are all experts in inheritance disputes.

No wonder he has been so active recently.

As soon as Zhu Hao walked in, his eyes lit up when he saw William, and he said happily, "You brought the dog? That's perfect. I can take it home after the trial is over."

After saying this, he turned around triumphantly and sat in the plaintiff's seat.

Hearing this, Brother Jian panicked even more. He lowered his voice and said to Xiao He, "Now both the evidence and public opinion are against us. This time we are really finished."

The trial came faster than they expected. It might be that Zhu Hao cleared some obstacles and allowed the trial to be held ahead of schedule. This caught everyone off guard, so many things were not prepared yet.

Xiao He looked at the door and said nothing, wondering what he was thinking about.

Soon, the trial officially began.

The lawyer on the other side was very experienced and listed the relationship between Mr. Zhu and William one after another. With the support of numerous photos and witnesses, it was certain that William was the legacy left by Mr. Zhu.

As the only heir, Zhu Hao should have the right to dispose of William according to the inheritance law.

Although Xiao He claimed that William was abused and abandoned, the laws on animal protection were not yet sound. Even if Xiao He presented evidence to prove the truth that William was abused and made everyone heartbroken, it would be of no avail.
