There are quite a few people in the neighborhood who keep pets, but where will they look when there is no food?
The first one is naturally my pet, since pets have another name online.
grain reserves!
Qin Bai asked Wu Ming to inquire if there were any snow dogs in the neighborhood. After asking around, they found that only one family still had a husky.
Upon hearing the name "Erha," Qin Bai's lips twitched.
Although the Siberian Husky is a snow dog, it is most famous for its destructive capabilities.
What if the husky suddenly acts silly halfway through the journey and leads him into a ditch?
But he had no other choice but to play with the husky.
"Forget it, let's go buy the husky first."
Qin Bai arrived with difficulty at the house where there was a husky. It was a young couple who didn't look well.
Even under these circumstances, they still didn't slaughter the husky for meat, which shows how much they love it.
The husky wasn't in a good state either, since even humans weren't eating, let alone the husky.
At this moment, the husky was lying on the ground, looking listless.
"Hello, I'm here to buy a husky."
Qin Bai said.
It was only because of Wu Ming's guarantee that the young couple wouldn't have dared to let Qin Bai in, since the incident with the Cannibal Gang had frightened many people.
“If we had no other choice, we wouldn’t be willing to sell it. We only have one need, which is normal food.”
"That's what the man said."
He knew that if things continued like this, not only would they starve to death, but the husky would too.
The meat soup that Wu Ming gave out was only for people; the dogs didn't get any.
The couple both love dogs, and they couldn't bear to make them eat their own dog's meat.
Rather than suffering later, it's better to find an owner who can afford to take care of it.
Qin Bai happened to need a snow dog, and the two sides hit it off immediately.
However, the quantity of food must be agreed upon before the transaction.
"My price is a box of instant noodles. Are you willing to make the deal? I can also assure you that I won't eat the husky."
To be honest, the meat from the husky alone is worth more than a box of instant noodles, but the young couple couldn't bring themselves to do that, so they might as well exchange it for something they could eat themselves.
Qin Bai's offer surprised the young couple. They had thought they would be lucky to get a few packets of instant noodles, since food was scarce at this time.
But to their surprise, Qin Bai actually had a box of instant noodles. The fact that he could produce a box for the transaction meant that he must have other food items.
Just as the man was about to speak, the woman pulled him back and said, "One box of instant noodles isn't enough, add another box."
The man's eyes widened; wasn't his wife making outrageous demands?
What time is it? One box of instant noodles is enough for the couple to eat sparingly for a long time. What if they don't agree to another box?
Qin Bai glanced at the woman; it was obvious that she thought he had more food and was deliberately raising the price.
Qin Bai did have plenty of food, but he wasn't a sucker; anyone who wanted more food from him was dreaming.
You get what you pay for. Although the husky has some meat, its value is about the same as a box of instant noodles.
The main reason is that Qin Bai didn't want to eat dog meat; a box of instant noodles was already enough.
"There's only one box, but I can give you some other small items as a bonus, which are also food."
A hint of smugness flashed in the woman's eyes. She thought this was Qin Bai's way of backing down: "No, it has to be two boxes. If you don't have two boxes of instant noodles, then you can have something else."
Seeing this, Qin Bai turned and left without saying a word.
The woman was somewhat skeptical that Qin Bai would really leave, but after he stepped out of the house, she hurriedly went over and called out, "One and a half boxes! One and a half boxes of Erha is all you need!"
Qin Bai didn't stop walking, which made the woman even more flustered.
She knew very well that other people couldn't afford to buy a husky, and now that one had finally come along, she didn't know when she would find another one if she missed it.
Most importantly, the husky and the others have run out of food and can only survive on a bowl of meat soup from Officer Wu each day.
It's fair to say that without Wu Ming, many people in the community would have starved to death long ago.
Seeing that Qin Bai was about to leave, the woman had no choice but to say dejectedly, "Let's do as you said, a box of instant noodles plus some freebies."
Qin Bai then stopped and nodded, saying, "I'll go back and get the food."
His claim of going back to get it was obviously a lie. He simply went downstairs and waited for a while, then took out the instant noodles and the free gifts after getting some snow on them.
After successfully getting the husky, Qin Bai returned home.
"You must be starving. Have some dog food first, and I'll make you a big meal tonight."
Seeing the husky looking so helpless, Qin Bai took out a dog bowl and filled it with dog food.
The husky suddenly perked up, shoving its head into the food and eating voraciously.
It hasn't eaten dog food in a long time; in fact, its two former owners have been fighting over it.
Qin Bai estimated that it would take the husky a few more days to return to normal.
There's been a heavy snowstorm these past few days, so it's not the right time to go out.
For the next few days, Qin Bai did nothing but play games, exercise, and feed the dog.
He would occasionally go to Sister Lu's place for a free meal, since he had never found a milk that tasted similar.
Qin Bai had always had a question: how much milk did Sister Lu have stockpiled at home that she still hadn't finished drinking?
At that moment, Wu Ming suddenly called Qin Bai.
Qin Bai was a little curious. What did Wu Ming want to tell him specifically at this time?
As soon as the call connected, Wu Ming's solemn voice came through: "Qin Bai, there's something I need to tell you."
"What's up?"
"I called the station, but strangely, no one answered."
Qin Bai frowned. Was there no one at the police station?
This situation generally doesn't happen; police stations aren't like other places where there are people present 24 hours a day.
"You mean, something happened over there?"
“That’s right. Even our neighborhood has experienced something like this. There’s a high chance something else has happened over there. I want to go there and check on the situation.”
"Do you want to come with me?"
Wu Ming called to ask Qin Bai's opinion.
Qin Bai certainly wanted to go, but after discovering that Sister Lu's child had been born with supernatural abilities, he realized that he might not be safe outside.
If he were to encounter a powerful superhuman, he might be in danger.
Even in the past, he had to ensure his own safety.
