Chapter 414: Only Eats Dog Food

Fang Zhao took a deep breath and remained silent.

Seeing no reaction from Fang Zhao, Curly Hair thought that Fang Zhao didn’t understand and opened his jaw even wider and pressed closer to the safety glass.

Fang Zhao: “… Alright, close your mouth.”

Fang Zhao rubbed his face then asked. “How did you manage to eat him?”

A fully grown human vanishing without a trace. Curly Hair’s size didn’t seem like he was possible of doing so!

Curly Hair tilted his head and had a puzzled expression. This time, he was really puzzled and it wasn’t an act.

From Curly Hair’s expression, he probably only knew that he had eaten up the perpetrator. After all, the order he received was not to let the perpetrator off Whale Island. Consuming him was one such method. Curly Hair still thought that he had rendered considerable service and ran back over to Fang Zhao to take credit! As for how he had eaten up that person? Curly Hair had no idea and recollection of how he had done it.

Fang Zhao sucked in another deep breath once more.

What exactly am I rearing!

The reaction from Fang Zhao caused Curly Hair’s proudly enthusiastic spirits to cool down. He crouched down and watched Fang Zhao carefully, feeling a little uneasy.

Through the safety glass Fang Zhao, continued to watch this dog in silence.

This dog can’t differentiate things clearly. Or it should be said that the way he viewed things differed from humans. In his eyes, strangers were no different from the ground rats at farms. This dog had many unknown abilities. He was very smart, and still maturing. His intellect was increasing by the day and even knew how to pretend to avoid suspicion this time.

From the details Zhao Chao had given, Fang Zhao could roughly guess how things unfolded—Curly Hair heard the conversation between the two captains and thought that Fang Zhao’s life was in danger. This, he wanted to rush back but was stopped by Zhao Chao. Therefore, Curly Hair got stirred up, forcibly snatched away the leash and chased after the perpetrator on his own in a bid to complete the mission and return back.

Fang Zhao had brought Curly Hair along and attended some training classes after entering the inspection team. The instructor had told Fang Zhao that on Whale Island, the moment any situation involving extremists were discovered, island inspection team, island guard and other authorities could immediately should them dead. Personnel equipped with guns would have the power to handle urgent matters when they encountered them!

Not cooperating with security checks at the island’s entry points alone was already an offense liable to being shot, let alone a matter involving pathogens and a terrorist organization. There would always be some things that brewed during each Whale Island Conference Period. Many people who came to participate in the conference didn’t know about the billows surging beneath the picture of calm and tranquility. The price of peace and stability didn’t come cheap.

Although most wouldn’t begrudge the deaths of those extremists, but that was a totally different thing. Eating a human was no small matter!

It no longer was the Period of Destruction. The New Era had its own set of rules.

Fang Zhao was now clearly aware on one point: This dog Curly Hair was capable of doing anything when he got excited!

It wasn’t too convenient for Fang Zhao to say or ask too much while still in quarantine. Zhao Chao also wouldn’t give him too much time to speak with Curly Hair.

Fang Zhao knocked on the safety glass in spoke to Curly Hair in a serious tone. “From now on, you aren’t allowed to eat anything other than dog food and water! Until my quarantine ends!”

Fang Zhao spoke briefly to Curly Hair for a bit before Zhao Chao came back over to urge him..

“How, have you spoken to him?” Zhao Chao asked. “The veterinarian was sending reminders. He says that we mustn’t neglect even the slightest details that could threaten the life of an inspection dog.

Fang Zhao quashed all sorts of misgivings he had deep down and said. “Captain, can you get the vet to come over here and do the checkup?”

Curly Hair was too special. Fang Zhao had to watch him to prevent any unforeseen circumstances. Fang Zhao was also worried the checkup would discover some hard to explain results and it would be better if he was present.

Before getting a reply from Zhao Chao, Fang Zhao asked another question. “His blood will also be drawn?”

“Yes.” Zhao Chao nodded.

Fang Zhao: “He is afraid of needles.”

Curly Hair gazed at Fang Zhao with those innocent eyes of his.

Fang Zhao’s expression didn’t change.

Zhao Chao chuckled. “No wonder you are always beside him whenever blood needs to be drawn. I understand, many dogs are like that, they require their owners to be at their side to cooperate, otherwise they will throw a fuss.”

Ignoring Curly Hair’s whimpers, Fang Zhao shot Zhao Chao an apologetic look. “Sorry for the trouble.”

The vet had already been waiting and brought his working back over the moment he received Zhao Chao’s notification. He performed the checkup on Curly Hair in front of Fang Zhao. The drawing of blood also went very smoothly. With Fang Zhao watching, there wasn’t an instance where the needle bent when pricking Curly Hair.

Fang Zhao kept his eye on the vet’s actions and waited for the results of this checkup.

“No big problems, just that he has high levels of certain rare metals.” The vet said. “He might have possibly eaten stuff that are high in such metals.”

These excessive indications were in accordance to results of Curly Hair’s previous medical examination. There were records of Curly Hair’s checkups since he entered the inspection team.

Zhao Chao was fuming when he received this conclusion. “I just knew that someone had surely tried to drug him!”

“Fortunately it isn’t too serious. I will prescribe some medicine. Let him have some when feeding him with dog food will do.”

After the vet left, Zhao Chao discussed with Fang Zhao about the issue with Curly Hair’s arrangement.

Now that Fang Zhao was in quarantine, Curly Hair couldn’t stay here all the time. Thus, Fang Zhao allowed Zhao Chao to bring Curly Hair out for patrols when there were assignments and let Curly Hair return here when these assignments were completed.

Because of the long quarantine, Fang Zhao be locked inside this cramped and small quarantine room all the way. A special quarantine apartment building would be catered for him and the rest of those under quarantine to stay a month.

They weren’t criminals and had even rendered meritorious service so they would definitely be treated slightly better. The quarantine apartment building also had a visitor room which Curly Hair would stay at when he wasn’t on assignments or missions.

Zhao Chao was very busy everyday and wouldn’t have time to keep an eye on Curly Hair outside of missions. However, he would bring Curly Hair to the visitor room after missions as it didn’t take up too much time.

After discussing this arrangement, Zhao Chao brought Curly Hair out. He had just received a notification that there were two warehouses that needed an inspection so he could only let Curly Hair work overtime. Fortunately, there wouldn’t be too much to inspect this time, and it wouldn’t take too long.

Before bringing Curly Hair to the warehouses, Zhao Chao was worried that Curly Hair would be hungry and tried to feed him something first.

Fang Zhao had said before that Curly Hair got hungry easily. Zhao Chao knew that some dogs were this way. Also, Curly Hair had rendered quite a huge service this time round so Zhao Chao had specially gone to the dining hall to request for a huge pig knuckle and brought it over when it was cooked.

Normally, the dog food that the team’s dogs consumed were mixed with minced meant and fresh vegetables being sent over. There were both dry and wet rations. However, besides dog food, if dogs would also be given some rewards for rendering a service. For example if Thornhead performed well at a certain inspection checkpoint, someone would send over a huge pork knuckle. Thornhead loved pork knuckles.

The other dogs in the team also ate pork knuckles so Zhao Chao thought that Curly Hair should probably enjoy it too.

However, where Zhao Chao brought the pork knuckle over, Curly Hair only squatted beside the bowl and looked at it. Zhao Chao gave it to Curly Hair, but Curly Hair only stared at it and made groaning sounds but he didn’t eat it.

At first Zhao Chao thought that Curly Hair wouldn’t eat anything that was given by anyone other than his owner. However, when Zhao Chao switched it to dog food, Curly Hair ate it all up.

Zhao Chao felt that he had found the reason and said when chatting with other team members. “I heard before that some pet dogs only eat dog food. I never imagined it to be true till I give Curly Hair such a huge pork knuckle but he wouldn’t eat it.”

“That shouldn’t be, a few days back I saw Fang Zhao giving him some biscuits.” An inspection team member said.

“Those are minor occasions. Besides if the owner is the one feeding, the dog should still eat a little even if he doesn’t like it. Have you seen Curly Hair eat a lot of biscuits?” Zhao Chao asked.

“Not a lot. But, isn’t there also pork knuckle inside our team’s dog food? Why doesn’t Curly Hair eat pork knuckles when he consumes the dog food? He doesn’t even touch it?” Another team member voiced out his doubts.

“Perhaps because Curly Hair is a small-sized dog. Perhaps he can’t gnaw on it with his small mouth so he doesn’t know how to eat it! The small pet dog that at my aunt’s place is like this. It doesn’t have the patience to bite on food stuff that are too big, at most a few testing nibbles for fun but the food still has to be cut up into smaller pieces before it will eat. Pet dogs are all rather pampered.” That inspection team member continued.

From their point of view, Curly Hair was brought up as a pet dog most of the time. Although he had some experience herding sheep in Muzhou, however, that had only been phase and ihe had a status of a pet dog for much longer. Curly Hair’s inspection dog status was also only temporary and when Whale Island Conference concludes and the missions were completed, He would return and continue being a pet dog. Therefore, everyone’s expectations of him weren’t that strict.

Zhao Chao felt that it made sense, pet dogs were willful. Curly Hair would also dawdle when doing an inspection unlike how military and police dogs complied with orders. He was also afraid of needles and a little timid.

However, as long as he had the ability and could complete missions, being a little willful didn’t matter. Zhao Chao then placed the cut up pork knuckle into Curly Hair’s bowl but Culry Hair still didn’t touch it.

Afterwards, Zhao Chao broke the pork knuckle down into even smaller pieces and mixed it into the dog fod. This time, Curly Hair ate it.

Thus, everyone in the inspection team knew this—Fang Zhao’s dog only loved dog food. That dog absolutely wouldn’t touch any other food stuffs that were a little big!
