Chapter 214 -212: Little Companions

“Hey, Senior Brother, why do you still have a dog here?” Ermao stared at the dog and didn’t relax until he saw that the dog showed no hostility towards Zheng Tan.

Zheng Tan also noticed that apart from showing strong vigilance at the beginning, the dog became much more amiable after watching him and Ermao for a while, not appearing aggressive, but it still blocked Zheng Tan and Ermao at the door, showing no sign of leaving.

The monkey on the big dog’s back, seeing that the dog did not attack for a long time, called out anxiously a few times and even tugged at the collar on the dog’s neck.

“Black Gold, come here, it’s a guest!” Senior Hetao’s voice came from the study.

The big dog blocking Zheng Tan and Ermao immediately stepped aside and walked towards the study.

Qi became even more anxious at this point, as if feeling embarrassed, and tugged at the collar on the dog’s neck a few more times, trying to get the big dog to turn back. Unfortunately, not only did it fail to change the dog’s direction, but also ended up being thrown off its back.

After rolling on the ground, Qi got up and saw Zheng Tan’s less-than-pleased look, so it hurried into the study to seek support, not wanting to be beaten again.

When Zheng Tan walked into the study, he found the big dog lying next to Senior Hetao, ignoring everyone else. Qi had probably run to Pei Liang to tattle.

Another tattletale. Zheng Tan thought contemptuously.

“This is a Kunming Dog, right? It looks like it served in the military.” Ermao’s eyes lit up as he gazed at Black Gold and said.

Most men would rather keep dogs than cats, just like when Zheng Tan first met Senior Hetao, who had said he would “rather keep a dog than a cat.”

“Right,” Senior Hetao replied proudly to Ermao’s comment, “Black Gold was a military dog who was retired early due to injuries, from a friend’s unit. Over there, although dogs may not have the status of humans, they are still considered valiant soldiers, aren’t they? People say, ‘Every radish has its hole,’ and it’s a piece of military equipment; you can’t get one just because you want it. I went through a lot of trouble to bring it here, and there was a period of acclimation. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, and it even helped me catch a drug trafficker the other day. Damn impressive, this dog! But I dare not take it to the station; such dogs usually don’t bite randomly, but if they do, they are fiercer than wolves.”

“You kept it secretly, and you didn’t even mention the dog when everyone was bragging about their pets at the hotel. But speaking of which, don’t you already have police dogs? You didn’t have to wait until now to keep one,” Ermao asked.

“It was love at first sight, and after I brought it home, it took some time to get it adjusted to the place. If it had been a more aggressive dog, I couldn’t have brought it back at all. Black Gold is patient, helps catch crooks outside, guards against thieves at home, and even helps collect shoes when it rains! My friend told me that, when it was in the unit, Black Gold was often commanded to steal shoes, just waiting for an embarrassment during an emergency assembly. One time it even snatched shoes from their company commander.”

Lying on the ground, Black Gold’s ears perked up occasionally, paying attention to the surroundings, and it would glance at Senior Hetao whenever it heard a few familiar words. When Senior Hetao spoke about the friend in the military and the unit, Black Gold made a mournful, whining sound as it lay there.

Senior Hetao bent down and stroked Black Gold’s head, “Missing them, aren’t you?”

Suddenly, Zheng Tan felt the atmosphere turn sorrowful, and even Qi Da stopped moving and stared with wide eyes, not knowing what to think.

“Hey, Ermao, take a look at the photos of Qi starring in a movie recently,” Pei Liang said, breaking the melancholic mood, “Look, there’s also a popular actress. I even have her autograph… it could sell for a good amount of money.”

Zheng Tan: “…” So the whole point of getting the autograph was to sell it?

“These photos can be shown when attending programs to boost popularity,” Pei Liang treasured these pictures, buying several albums specifically for them, ready to show them off later.

“Shooting a period drama, even wearing costume. Senior Brother Pei, aren’t you afraid of repercussions for showing off these photos?” Ermao pointed at the pictures in the album.

“No worries, I’ve got their consent. They are happy with it. It’s a form of promotion and can increase their visibility,” Pei Liang replied confidently, showing that he had encountered such situations before and had thought through various aspects.

While Ermao was looking at the photos, Pei Liang took out a digital camera and said to Zheng Tan, “Come on, let’s take a commemorative photo of the three little buddies.”

“Photos are fine, but don’t let them get leaked,” Senior Hetao said.

“I know, I’ve got it under control,” Pei Liang waved his hand and then signaled Zheng Tan to come over, “Black Gold, Heitan, both ‘Black’ family, what fate. ”

“Who knows, maybe these two will work together to solve a case someday, after all, they both have experience cracking cases,” Senior Hetao jokingly said from the side.

For the photo, Zheng Tan looked at the preening Qi Da and then saw Black Gold being obediently called over, sitting as if on a mission. After some thought, Zheng Tan leaped onto a small chair; being shorter, he had to stand higher, otherwise, once Qi Da and Black Gold came over, Zheng Tan would seem quite small in comparison.

Qi Da dared not stand next to Zheng Tan and only let Black Gold stand in the middle, with Zheng Tan and Qi Da on either side. Whether to stand in the middle or on the side, Zheng Tan didn’t really care; he just complied with the photo session.

After returning home, Zheng Tan thought he would no longer see that monkey, but a few days later, Pei Liang brought Qi Da for a home visit.
