Chapter 405: Done It For Real

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A squad of inspection team members who had just returned back from assignment were chatting happily when they suddenly heard the intense barks and human shouts . The surrounding dogs also tensed up and moved further away . Even if they did not move further away, they stuck closer to their respective instructors and appeared uneasy .

“They fought?” Someone asked in astonishment .

“Those two… No, why does it sound like three dogs?”

“Don’t tell me K and Thornhead are fighting? I just knew that those two were bound to fight eventually!”

“Doesn’t sound like it at all . ”

“I think it did happen . Look at the reaction from the other dogs . Besides those two, anything else wouldn’t have this sort of effect . ”

“Wasn’t it said previously that these two would fight? What exactly is going on right now? It sounds really ferocious!”

“The other dogs are just going to be cannon fodder if those two fight . Hurry and check it out!” Every dog in the team was very precious and nobody hoped to see another dog get hurt because of a fight between these two .

Team members with dogs by their side didn’t head over, but those without any rushed over . They were worried that if K and Thornhead fought, their instructors might not be able to hold them down and that more people might be required to help .

The people in the yard as well as upstairs all headed over .

However, the barking stopped very quickly . The Captain’s shout transmitted out of the passageway . “What are you all looking at, go back!”

Those that were chased away knew that the situation had been diffused . However, they couldn’t help but be curious so they gathered together to discuss after leaving .

“Did they really fight?” A team member who had been on night duty came over and asked . He had been catching up on sleep when a series of intense barking had startled him and made him fall off the bed .

“Who won? K or Thornhead?”

“No idea . I hadn’t seen anything when the captain made me turn back . ”

“Hey, Little Liu . Where did you come back from? Did you see what happened?” Someone saw Little Liu bringing Eagle over and asked .

Eagle’s trainer, Little Lu, patted the startled Eagle tenderly and shook his head at the posed question . “I can’t say anything, Captain’s orders . ”

“You still can’t talk about this matter? Can’t you reveal just a little bit? Was it K or Thornhead that won? Or perhaps a draw?” Another trainer from the inspection team asked .

Little Lu had a hard to describe expression and continued shaking his head . “Stop asking . ”

This fight had come really quickly and had concluded really quickly as well . There were so many people who had heard the news and had wanted to head over to check it out, only to be met with an empty passageway .

In a certain room upstairs .

Thornhead, who had been brought back to his dormitory, was currently lying on the ground . His body was shaking as he sobbed . He was even panting rapidly . At this moment, Thornhead seemed to be completely one hundred eighty degrees from his normal majestic self .

This wasn’t anger, fury or being hurt . He had no other way to vent except by sobbing .

The trainer most accustomed to Thornhead’s temperament was also helpless . The blow he had received today was also too large . He had originally thought that the only one who might suppress Thornhead within the team was K . Yet, before the victor between him and K had been decided, Thornhead had been pressed to the ground by a bite from the little dog . Thornhead had also lost a few tufts of fur around his neck . Luckily, Thornhead’s fur around his neck was thick even though it didn’t look long . However, he wouldn’t be recovering anytime soon from the psychological blow he had received today .

“Thornhead, you also shouldn’t get angry with someone else’s little dog,” The trainer said . “You are a big dog . You shouldn’t bicker too much with that little thing . ”

But the moment “little dog” was said, Thornhead’s sobbing intensified . A big dog like himself couldn’t even beat that tiny thing!

The trainer caught himself and hurriedly went on . “No matter what, you are still our king when it comes to work! Right?”

Thornhead’s sobbing slowed .

While placating Thornhead, the trainer was also vexed . In his heart, he thought to himself, That little dog is real ferocious!!

The same building but a different dormitory .

K lay on the ground with his front paws crossed . He seemed no different from how he usually was except that he no longer had that imperious air . Currently his entire body seemed to be giving off a gloomy aura .

His trainer was at the side saying consolatory words . K glanced at his trainer and listened for a bit before shifting his head to the side as if trying to say, “I’m annoyed, stop bothering me . ”

Seeing K this way, K’s instructor didn’t say anything else and only sat quietly by K’s side while replaying the scenario at the passageway in his head .

The blow K received today was rather huge, and his trainer reckoned that this blow was even greater than failing a mission .

When Thornhead and Curly Hair had started fighting, K had only wanted to intervene and mediate . Yet, not only did it fail, he had been dumped to the side by Curly Hair kicking a leg out . Thus, his temper had frayed and he had joined in the fracas . In this sort of chaotic fight, the two trainers hadn’t been able to stop two large-sized dogs like K and Thornhead in their frenzy . Furthermore, it had seemed vaguely like those two large ones were teaming up to deal with that little dog . However, K had been kicked aside a few times in succession . In the past, he had never imagined that a large dog like K would be kicked to the ground by a little dog . Neither could he have imagined that the robust Thornhead would actually be pressed to the ground and bitten by that little thing .

At this moment, K’s trainer had the same thought as Thornhead’s instructor . That little dog is goddamn ferocious!

Exactly what sort of breed is it?

Why was it unheard of in the past?

Below them, in a certain dormitory .

Curly Hair had his neck drooped and looked at Fang Zhao carefully as though he had done something wrong .

“Look at you . Bullying others? However, the blame doesn’t lie with you this time . The other dog bit first . Curly Hair, everyone is going to be in the same team . They are all going to be your team members… Don’t bully them with your strength! Leave them some dignity . ”

“Also, don’t think you can slack off just because you are very impressive . You must do things seriously when working!”

As Fang Zhao was speaking to Curly Hair, Zhao Chao sent him a message asking him to bring Curly Hair upstairs to the dormitory where Thornhead was at .

“Remember what I told you before . You must remember to behave and not show off!” Fang Zhao exhorted before leading Curly Hair upstairs .

Zhao Chao was already waiting there . The moment Fang Zhao brought Curly Hair into the room, Thornhead released a few low growls .

Curly hair didn’t react and obediently followed by Fang Zhao’s side as though trying to portray that “I’m a very good boy . ”

Fang Zhao noticed tear stains below Thornhead’s eyes and was a little curious . Zhao Chao had said that this dog Thornhead had rather acute temperament changes . To think that he would cry this much after losing a fight .

Thornhead’s trainer noticed Fang Zhao’s gaze . He gave a slight cough and explained, “Thornhead drank a lot of water and is just feeling a little hot . ”

Fang Zhao nodded his head cooperatively . “So that’s what happened . ” He understood the importance of looking after the moods of the service dogs .

Zhao Chao also spoke . “I just called the vet over to check on them later . Any injuries have to be handled . Fang Zhao, is Curly Hair hurt anywhere?”

Zhao Chao had clearly seen the situation back in the passageway . Curly Hair didn’t seem like he had been bitten by Thornhead . As for K, he had been kicked aside by Curly Hair each time he had tried to got close, so he never had any opportunity to bite .

“No, he isn’t hurt . ” Fang Zhao replied .

“That’s good . ” Zhao Chao had a complicated expression as he looked at the quiet Curly Hair crouching by Fang Zhao’s feet . He told Fang Zhao gently, “Today, K and Thornhead were in slightly bad moods so they fought . However, they won’t do it for real, and they won’t bite each other to death . You don’t have to worry . Speaking of that, I never expected that your little curly-haired dog would actually be so ferocious when it got mad . ”

Fang Zhao: “…” Would you all believe me if I said that he didn’t do it for real?

If Curly Hair did it for real, it wouldn’t just be a few kicks or biting some tufts of fur . This was really light already . However, Fang Zhao couldn’t say anything and only limited himself to placating responses .

No matter what, this fight was wrong . The three dogs were forced to spend ten hours in solitary confinement .

Ten hours wasn’t long, but no dog was willing to spend too long inside the solitary confinement chamber made specifically for dogs .

Now was when they were starting to get busy, and these three dogs were the elites that ranked in the top three in the tests . They were still needed for assignments so Zhao Chao couldn’t lock them up for a few days . This was only the first mistake and their first time fighting, so ten hours was just a little punishment to make them remember it .

After handling matters here, Zhao Chao returned to make his reports to the higher ups . Because of Curly Hair’s inclusion, the team would be able to move ahead with the break-in period and would be able to start operations even earlier .

Furthermore, Curly Hair appeared to be rather compliant and had a fighting strength that exceeded Zhao Chao’s imagination . Zhao Chao just wondered what Curly Hair would be like when it came to work .
