Chapter 524: Urban Village


Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

A lot of cities had urban villages, including Binhai City .

An urban village started out as an ordinary village near the city . As the city expanded, the village became part of the city, but was never demolished and rebuilt for some reason . It became a unique scenery on its own, and could not blend in with the tall buildings around them .

Ning Lan's classmates were grad students in Binhai University, and were familiar with this urban village . A lot of student couples in Binhai University did not live on the campus residence, but rented their own place in the urban village . Most houses in the village were built by the villagers and were three-story buildings with simple furniture and cheap rent . It was popular among the student couples .

The problem with an urban village was evident . It was chaotic!

Most residents of the urban village were tenants that moved often . The security was loose, and many tenants lost their wallets or phones all the time . Fights and conflicts were often reported . Underground brothels were everywhere which were a natural hotbed of crimes .

Upon arrival, Zhan Tian stormed into the urban village without hesitation . Zhang Zian knew well that the dog-trappers were very likely to be hiding here . The urban village was indeed the perfect hiding place for them . 　

Hotels that were sloppily built by the villagers were everywhere in the urban city, forming a labyrinth . Many hospitable villagers came up to greet potential guests . "Are you looking to rent? Our hotel is cheaper than the others . Monthly payment with one-month deposit . Would you like to take a look inside?"

There were all kinds of odors in the urban village . Zhan Tian had to sniff more carefully . Zhang Zian reminded the others to pay attention to the surroundings .

Ning Lan's friends became nervous . It was one thing to help her look for the dog, but facing a gang of criminals was something else . A few girls were afraid, but were too shy to leave . The guys were emboldening each other . "What are we afraid of? We are so many, plus two dogs! Good always defeats evil!"

Zhan Tian led them to an ordinary yard . The gate was shut, and it was quiet inside . It sniffed around near the gate, then sat down and looked at Zhang Zian silently, as if it was telling him something with the eyes .

"Is it here?" He bent down and asked quietly .

Zhan Tian watched him in silence . 　

This was the difference between a police dog and a house dog . When something unusual was spotted, a house dog would bark right away, but a trained police dog would be unusually quiet, in order not to scare the enemy .

Famous lifted its head and sniffed, then said in a low voice, "There is a smell of many dogs in the yard . Some of it smells . . . rotten . "

Zhang Ziwan was 100% certain that this was the base of the dog-trappers . Some of the trapped dogs may be dead already, and were about to be sold to dog meat restaurants . As for why the living dogs were silent . . . he was not sure . 　

He was thinking about the next move . Should he call Sheng Ke? Then he suddenly noticed a few villagers were peeping at them from a distance, and typing on their phone .

Damn! The urban villagers probably knew that they were running a shady business . To cope with the sudden inspections from the government, they had secret WeChat groups in order to stay connected and alert each other . As soon as the outsiders arrived, including Zhang Zian, they were fighting against countless invisible soldiers everywhere .

Soon, a hustling sound came from the yard, as if someone was packing up in a hurry . 　

Zhang Zian made an immediate decision and told Ning Lan, "Call the police, and tell them someone is selling illegal drugs here . " Before Ning Lan could respond, he clenched his fist and knocked on the door . "Open the door! Open the door!"

As he yelled, Zhan Tian barked with him . The sound became more chaotic in the yard with the noise of tables and chairs being knocked over .



Zhang Zian assigned tasks to two students . "You guys detour to the back . One take the left and the other take the right . Go see if there are back doors or side doors in the yard, then come back to tell me . "　　

They took the order and hurried off . Soon they came back and reported . "This is the only door . "

Zhang Zian nodded . The people inside could not run away . 　

Suddenly, the bolt clicked and the door was pulled open . A young man wearing a mask shouted to Zhang Zian angrily . "Hey, what are you knocking for? Who are you looking for?"

Zhang Zian replied calmly, "Our dog is lost . We are looking for it . "　

"We don't have dogs here!"

The young man wanted to close the door after answering impatiently . But Zhang Zian held the door . 　　

"What you do want? Trouble?" The young man's face changed . He rolled up his sleeves, ready for a fight .

"Woof! Woof!" Zhan Tian growled and showed its teeth . 　

The young man saw the yellow dog teeth, and chickened out . 　

During this moment, through the door slit, Zhang Zian saw an MPV parked in the yard . It was the same vehicle in the video, and the same one he saw in the valley at the back of his pet shop . 　



"It is here!" He tilted his head to tell Ning Lan . "Let's go inside and see!"　

Ning Lan saw it too . She was very anxious to find her dog, so she followed Zhang Zian inside the yard . The young man wanted to stop them, but he couldn't stop so many people alone, and was brushed to the side . 　

They forced themselves into the yard with Zhang Zian . Two young men came out of the room, both wearing masks, with a shady look in their eyes . They were clearly not good people .

"What you do want? To steal or rob?" They forgot that they were thieves and robbers themselves, and yelled rudely with their hands on their waists . "Let me tell you . If you don't leave, we'll call the police!"

"Go ahead . " Zhang Zian responded . "If you don't, I'll call them for you . Give the trapped dogs back!"　

"Dogs? What dogs? We don't have dogs here!" The three men would not admit it . 　　

Zhang Zian pointed at the MPV . "Then open the trunk of this vehicle, and let us take a look . "　　

"Why? Who do you think you are? Police? Do you have a warrant?" They protected the vehicle nervously, as if there was some horrible secret inside the vehicle . 　

Zhang Zian was not in a hurry . Ning Lan already called the police . All he needed to do was to hold them off until the police arrived . 　

A crowd of people had already gathered outside the yard . Some were the urban villagers, and some were tenants . They were all watching the drama .

The dog trappers knew that it would be bad for themselves to be held off . One of them got into the driver's seat of the MPV and started the engine . The other two also went inside the car .

"Get the f*ck off! I'm driving off . If you don't go away, I'll run you over!" The driver rolled down the window, stuck out his head and cursed .

They were not bluffing, and started to back out the vehicle . The MPV was backing up toward Zhang Zian and others . They knew what would happen if their shady business was exposed, and couldn't wait to get away . 　

If Zhang Zian and the rest did not move away, they could have been rolled under the wheels . These lunatic dog-trappers were capable of anything . This was just a rented place, and the plate was falsified . They had nothing to fear . They would be hard to catch once they got away .

The students rebuked them furiously, but had to move to the side, as did Zhang Zian . As soon as he moved away, the MPV tried to hurry off . Zhan Tian leaped into the front window with precision, bit the driver's wrist, and pulled it abruptly to the side .

Zhan Tian's bite was accurate, but didn't hurt him . The teeth merely pierced through the cuff of the driver's winter coat . 　

The driver was shocked and infuriated . The MPV driver lost control as he battled against Zhan Tian for the steering wheel . The car banged into the yard wall . The engine cover was distorted, broken and had smoke coming from it .

"Zhan Tian!"　　

Zhang Zian was worried about Zhan Tian's injury . He hurried over to pull it out of the window . Zhan Tian's forehead was injured by the steering wheel during the impact, and blood ran down its cheek . But its eyes were excited . The injury didn't seem too bad .

The three dog-trappers had their sh*t bumped out . They pulled open the door, and wobbled out of the car .

"Tuan Tuan!"

Right away, Ning Lan saw her Samoyed lying in the car . She jumped over, and screamed in terror .
