Chapter 416 When Parrots Face Hardship

The dog wagged its tail, pleadingly looking up at the man who approached it. Holding a phone, his voice trembled with uncertainty.

“What should I do… Oh, please don’t look at me like that, it’s just… It’s just…”

He seemed at a loss, crouching beside the dog, his face expressionless while his words carried a tinge of

sorrow,

“It’s hard for me when you look at me like this… I can’t bring you home, you see. I already have a dog

there…”

“My dog was a stray too, but he’s quite sensitive and doesn’t get along with other dogs. I can’t take you with me, I’m afraid.”

Lost in his performance, the man failed to notice Lilly and Blake standing nearby.

Finally, he sighed, “I’m sorry, but all I can do is bury your companion… It’s the only thing left for me to

do.”

“Oh, by the way, I have a meat bun here. Take it!”

He said, then grabbed the dog from the ground and carefully walked towards the roadside.

And with a slight shake of the camera, he changed the scene…

Lilly asked, “Daddy, what is he doing by shaking the phone like that?”

With a cold gaze, Blake replied, “He’s pretending to walk so that it’s easier to edit the scene transitions. later.”

As the man estimated that he had captured enough footage, he casually threw the lifeless body of the dog that had been hit to the side of the road.

The stiff dog hit the curb with a dull thud, its life extinguished.

The surviving dog, thinking it had encountered a kind person, was taken aback when it saw the man. discarding its companion’s body without a trace of compassion.

A sense of confusion seemed to freeze the dog in place and its eyes revealed a bewildered emotion.

The man stood there, watching the footage he had filmed, finally satisfied. In the end, he captured a few more shots of the bewildered and helpless dog before preparing to leave.

Pablo said, ‘Lilly, come!””

Lilly hesitated slightly, unable to grasp why she should hesitate, but her instincts and subconscious told –her to wait a little longer.

Blake recognized her confusion and said, “Are you trying to save a thousand and one dogs, or help the one right in front of you?”

Lilly didn’t even hesitate. “A thousand and one.”

Blake lowered his gaze, studying her intently. “Then we won’t act yet. We’ll gather enough evidence to

expose them and bring them down.”

In truth, the realm of pet consumption attracted many hypocritical demons seeking to exploit the trend for their gain.

The explosion of short video platforms had given rise to a group of individuals blinded by greed, willing to do anything for fame and money.

If they were going to fight, they had to make these heartless individuals fearful, so they would never dare to continue their atrocities in broad daylight.

But in the process of saving those thousand and one stray animals, they would undoubtedly have to sacrifice a few more lives.

Blake didn’t explicitly state this, but it lingered in the air, unsaid.

However, the young girl before them remained resolute, her eyes shining with determination as she nodded firmly. “Yes, let’s bring them down!”

Pablo’s mouth twitched.

Was it too early to teach her this? Was she sure she wouldn’t be met with Old Mrs. Crawford’s wrath upon returning home?

Pablo couldn’t help but interject, “Since we’re playing the long game, let’s first lock onto the malignant spirit.”

After encountering a crying spirit, both Pablo and Lilly became more vigilant. Even without Pablo’s instruction, Lilly knew she had to act accordingly..

Pablo was about to teach her a new magic-marking.

This way, even if the malignant spirit escaped, they could track him down using the mark.

But to their surprise, Lilly swiftly dashed forward, running straight to the man who was preparing to leave

in his car.

“Uncle!” Lilly called out.

The man turned around, furrowing his brows as he looked at Lilly. “Who are you?”

The malignant spirit on his head seemed to sense trouble brewing and glanced at Pablo in the distance before attempting to flee.
