So when Doubao was slammed to the ground, the huge impact prevented him from getting up again.

It whimpered softly a few times, as if trying to warn people and attract their attention, but its injuries were too severe for it to get up.

Those few sobs were also very, very faint.

It's so small that you can hardly hear it unless you put your ear close to it.

"You damn dog!"

Rubbing his bite wound, the middle-aged man slammed the car door shut, then spat out a mouthful of saliva.

Then, still not satisfied, he kicked the sack in the car hard.

The driver, his accomplice, gave a dismissive smirk upon seeing his action.

This guy looks decent enough to make people lower their guard, so he never gets to do many good jobs, simply because he has the kind of appearance that makes him look like a bad person.

What a joke! Do you think a person's good or bad character is written on their face?

Even if it's etched on your face, how do you judge whether it's real or fake?

If we judge people solely by their looks, then these people are truly as naive and foolish as ever.

"Don't kill it, this is to be handed over."

"I know, I know, how annoying are you?"

Once back in the car, the man who had appeared ordinary and harmless outside suddenly changed his expression.

That look in his eyes matched perfectly with the sharp-faced, fierce-looking man driving the car.

The sack in the rearview mirror remained motionless, just like it had been since I got in the car.

Thinking of this person's numerous bad habits, the monkey couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say he was just a child? How much medicine did you use? Or did you break his arm?"

This person looks like an ordinary person, and his aura is the same, so if you don't know him, you would never know that this guy has a very serious sadomasochistic fetish.

Those targets that once fell into their hands always suffered permanent and irreparable damage, as long as they passed through his hands.

Because of this habit, anyone who places an order with them must have a deep-seated grudge against the other party and wish them a lifetime of bad luck, so his quirk is never investigated.

On the contrary, based on the mindset of the person placing the order, torturing the target to the point of wishing they were dead is precisely what the other party wants.

So their orders have been coming in steadily without stopping.

And just like that, this unremarkable car quickly disappeared into the distance...

When Zhong Jiarui brought Xiao Anman back yesterday, he didn't know that Xiao Anman was the only one left in the Gu family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let Xiao Anman stay at home alone.

The reason Zhong Jiarui found out about this later was because he learned about Gu Tingxiao's car accident.

Such a serious car accident, if the person behind it was intentionally orchestrated, would naturally have amplified it.

Contrary to the preparations made by Assistant Zhou, someone wanted to spread the rumor that Gu Tingxiao had been in a car accident and was about to die, making it seem like a reality.

Thus, amidst all the truth and falsehood, the Gu family was thrust into the eye of the storm.

No one answered the phone at the Gu family's house, and there was no way to contact Gu Tingxiao either, so Zhong Jiarui drove to Yujinwan early in the morning.

The gate was properly closed, and there was no indication that anyone had forced their way in or opened it without permission.

However, the house was empty. After ringing the doorbell repeatedly without receiving a response, Zhong Jiarui climbed over the gate and jumped into the Gu family's house.

After searching inside and out, Zhong Jiarui was finally able to confirm that there was indeed no one here.

Including Xiao Anman.

However, everything inside the house was as usual, and there were clearly no signs of intrusion.

Based on all the clues, it's highly likely that Xiao Anman went out on her own.

After standing in front of the iron gate for a while and thinking it over, Zhong Jiarui estimated Xiao Anman's body size and concluded that it was entirely possible for her to pass through on her own.

If its owner goes missing, a dog will get anxious, just like a dog.

So it used the same method as Xiao Anman to get out, and the best evidence is the few white dog hairs that fell from under the iron gate.

Since both of them have short legs, they shouldn't run too far.

Zhong Jiarui went back inside and carefully searched along the traces he had discovered.

Finally, in an open space, Zhong Jiarui first heard the whimpering of a small animal, and then walked over and saw Doubao curled up in pain.

Doubao looked extremely weak at this moment.

Zhong Jiarui's face darkened when he saw the steamed buns.
