Shi Nian was annoyed, "Mr. Li, that's not what you told me just now. You asked me if I saw the big cardboard box in front of the store the day before yesterday. It's obvious that you abandoned the dog yourself. Since you abandoned it, the dog no longer belongs to you. You put the responsibility of abandoning the dog on our store, which is blackmail!"
Li Minhui choked and sat on the chair, refusing to leave. "Who said that I abandoned my dog by putting a cardboard box in front of your store? I left it there temporarily, but do you know what temporary means? My dog was left in front of your store, so you are responsible!"
He rolled his eyes slightly, pointed upward and said, "Don't you have surveillance cameras in your store? Check the surveillance now and find out who took my dog away. I'll go find him!"
Shi Nian was angry, anxious, and a little guilty, but she did not regret it.
She pulled Fang Ning's sleeve and lowered her voice, "Senior, everyone has their own responsibility. I..."
Fang Ning interrupted her with a hissing sound, "There's no need to reason with this kind of person. Nian Nian, go to the inner room and I'll handle this."
Li Minhui was unhappy. "Why are you taking so long to check the surveillance? I know it's you who are behind this!"
Fang Ning calmed Shi Nian down and said, "The surveillance camera at the entrance of the store is broken."
Li Minhui curled the corners of his lips, "Then it's only your store's responsibility! Pay the money!"
"How much do you want?"
"My dog is a purebred dog. I spent 18,000 yuan just to buy it. I have raised it for several years, so it should be worth at least 100,000 yuan. Just round it off and give me 100,000 yuan!"
Fang Ning said in a deep voice, "Okay."
Shi Nian opened her eyes wide. That was 100,000 yuan. Was he crazy? !
She held Fang Ning and said anxiously, "Senior, he is lying! A Teddy can be bought for a few hundred dollars, how could it cost tens of thousands? The dog is at most a year old, and he is lying when he says he will raise it for several years!"
Li Minhui raised his voice in an instant and rushed towards the two people, "I knew that the dog was taken away by you!"
Shi Nian endured it for a long time, met his gaze, and said angrily, "So what if I took it! You left a note for us to deal with, and then you blame us. This is blackmail!"
"Where is the dog now? If you can cure it, return it to me immediately!"
Shi Nian said coldly, "The dog is dead!"
Li Minhui was furious, "You killed my dog! And you want to escape responsibility and not pay the money!"
"You wrote it yourself on the note. Your dog is sick and you don't have money to treat it, so you're throwing it away!"
Shi Nian laughed angrily, but there was coldness in his eyes.
She looked Li Minhui up and down, "I see you're wearing all branded clothes. Either you don't have the money to treat your dog, or you're unwilling to spend money on treating your dog!"
"So what? I didn't leave any note anyway. What note are you talking about? Take it out and show it to me!"
Shi Nian's face changed slightly. She had thrown the note into the trash can two days ago.
She remained calm, "You know what the note I'm talking about is! Why should I show it to you? If you tear it up, who can I ask for an explanation?"
Li Minhui squinted at Shi Nian and said, "Since the dog died in your store, you have to pay for it!"
Now the dog's illness is not cured yet. If she returns the dog to him, the dog will be doomed. Either it will wait to die in the illness, or he will use the same old tricks on it again, putting it in a cardboard box and sending it to other people's homes to extort money!
Shi Nian clenched her fists. She would never return the dog to this dog owner who used the sick dog to make money!
Fang Ning said, "In that case, call the police!"
Li Minhui sneered, "Report it if you want! I'll say the same thing even if the police come!"
After saying that, he immediately took out his cell phone and called the police, "Hello? I want to call the police! Someone killed my dog!"
He told me the address, hung up the phone, and sat back down with his legs crossed, looking like you're all screwed.
Shi Nian felt a tightness in his chest and was afraid of causing trouble for Fang Ning.
She pulled Fang Ning aside and said unwillingly, "Senior, what should we do now? Do we really have to return the dog to him?"
"No."
Shi Nian was in agony, "But..."
Fang Ning interrupted her, "Wait a moment."
Shi Nian was torn between her conscience and her desires. Less than half a minute later, Fang Ning returned to her side.
“Senior…”
Shi Nian just opened his mouth, but when he saw the edge of the note in Fang Ning's hand, he was silent for a moment.
She was so surprised that she asked in a low voice, "Why is this in your hands?"
"I picked it up on the side of the road when I closed the store, so I put it away just in case."
It must be the wind that blew the note out of the trash can, and Fang Ning happened to see it.
Shi Nian breathed more easily. With this note, she could prove to the police that Li Minhui had extorted money.
A police car came roaring over, attracting the attention of the two people who were following them.
Feng Sihan frowned, and Han Ye's voice rang in his ears, "Why are the police here? I felt something was wrong just now, is there someone causing trouble in the store?"
Feng Sihan took out his cell phone and said, "Let me make a call and ask."
Han Ye thought he was going to call Shi Nian, and quickly stopped him, "Brother Han, it's inappropriate for you to call your sister-in-law now, right?"
Before he finished speaking, a strange male voice came from the other end of Feng Sihan's phone.
Han Ye understood and called the police station directly.
Inside the store, Li Minhui was pulling the police to complain.
"These two guys killed my dog!"
The police officer who was taking notes glanced at Li Minhui and asked, "Have I seen you before?"
"No, comrade police officer, this is the first time we meet."
"no."
The policeman stared at him for a long while, frowned and said, "I remember now, it's you! You called the police three times in one week, and every time you gave the same reason, saying that someone killed your dog! What's the big deal about you not taking good care of your dog and throwing it at someone else's doorstep?"
Shi Nian said indignantly, "So you're a repeat offender! No wonder the dog is so seriously ill, it's because of you tormenting it time and time again!"
Fang Ning handed the note to the policeman, then took out his phone and played the recording, "Comrade policeman, he extorted 100,000 yuan from us."
As soon as the recording was played, the expressions of everyone present, except Fang Ning himself, changed to varying degrees.
Li Minhui panicked. He had tried this method several times and it always worked to extort money. He would get the money back after a few days, but almost never did anyone keep the note, let alone record it.
The police officer questioned Li Minhui, "How else do you want to argue about the blackmail?"
Shi Nian was extremely surprised. Fang Ning was too meticulous. No wonder Li Minhui asked for a huge amount of money, one hundred thousand. He was not annoyed but continued to follow Li Minhui's words. It turned out that he had already anticipated that the situation would turn out like this.
Her previous impression of Fang Ning was only that he was gentle and enthusiastic, but after this incident, she had a new impression of him.
The police officer came over and asked, "Girl, what did you do with the dog in the cardboard box?"
Shi Nian subconsciously told the truth, but Fang Ning said before she could open her mouth, "When we found the dog in the carton, it was already dead. My employees and I handled it ourselves according to what the note said."
