Faced with Auntie Li from the management committee’s “earnest expectations,” Lin Xiaoqiang really wanted to play dead.

After all, as the president of the so-called “Supernatural Research Club,” he was nothing more than a figurehead—there wasn’t even a proper clubroom, and the only member was himself. If he were to generously include those enthusiastic classmates who kept posting lost-cat notices on the club’s bulletin board, maybe—just maybe—he could barely count five people.

However, the peace of the community, and his sense of responsibility as a (barely qualifies as one) superpowered individual (with about one hair’s worth of responsibility), eventually pushed him to take action. At the very least, he could start by “investigating” the enemy situation.

So, on a sunny afternoon, Lin Xiaoqiang sneakily arrived at the community park. He perked up his ears, trying hard to pick up the thoughts of the nearby animals.

“Today’s sunshine feels great. Perfect time to think about how to make those two-legged creatures offer up snacks on their own.”
That was the inner voice of a Chihuahua lying under a bench.

“That servant in the blue clothes hid the bone yesterday. I’ll find a chance to ‘visit’ his home later.”
This came from another mixed-breed dog.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKB20zTKzz
The more Lin Xiaoqiang listened, the more alarmed he became. These dogs not only had “revolutionary awareness,” but also clear divisions of labor and intelligence gathering! These weren’t just ordinary stray dogs—they were basically a group of furry… tacticians!
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qqDCbxzle
Just as he was trying to analyze the intel, a sudden voice interrupted his thoughts.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rJc7LjiTs
“Hey! What are you sneaking around here for?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Yb16knPhl
Startled, Lin Xiaoqiang turned around and saw Wang Meili, holding a very expensive-looking Persian cat and looking at him with deep suspicion.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrClyG6cCoR
“I... I’m just observing the community’s ecological environment,”
Lin Xiaoqiang explained awkwardly.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9veFpsxJyH
“Observing the ecological environment? You look more like you’re peeping at the grandmas sunbathing over there,”
Wang Meili bluntly teased.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1E1WiAC19
The corner of Lin Xiaoqiang’s mouth twitched. He decided to get straight to the point.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqJXGNVCKb
“Um... Wang Meili, have you noticed that the stray dogs around here have been acting a little... off lately?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN6kEC9Yaq
Wang Meili raised an eyebrow.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDBfgY4lMU
“Off? Haven’t they always been noisy? Barking at night, running wild during the day, even eating the flowers in the garden.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrfYyQSs3D
“No, not that kind of off! I mean... they seem to be plotting something!”
Lin Xiaoqiang lowered his voice, speaking with a mysterious tone.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJReh41rve
Wang Meili snorted, then walked over to the pavilion and sat down with her Persian cat.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWhYMQ3drb
“Plotting? What could they possibly be plotting? How to snatch more bones?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuXQ65pwqK
“No! They’re plotting... to rule humanity!”
Lin Xiaoqiang blurted out.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDNcg7N5hu
Wang Meili’s hand slipped, nearly dropping the Persian cat from her arms. The pampered-looking cat let out a dissatisfied “meow.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJgMJmDxgZ
“You... you said what? Rule humanity? Are you running a fever?”
Wang Meili looked at him like he was an alien.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxXuoaDrvx
“I’m not sick! I can hear their thoughts! They really are scheming! Their goal is to make humans lazier, so we’ll willingly serve them!”
Lin Xiaoqiang explained anxiously, afraid she wouldn’t believe him.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Jr67hYyfd
Wang Meili was silent for a moment. Her expression shifted from doubt to something… stranger.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TKjjcBnI2
“You can hear animals’ thoughts? Seriously?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Qha4AjbU4
Lin Xiaoqiang nodded helplessly.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Mx9HFiVwD
“Yes. And they even mock me for being single.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfVbShSaol
The corner of Wang Meili’s mouth twitched slightly, clearly trying to hold back laughter.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv3sefjtQm
“Okay, let’s say you’re telling the truth… so what? Are we supposed to form some kind of ‘Anti-Canine Alliance?’”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn7Pn1TwyS
“I... I just think we should do something,”
Lin Xiaoqiang said earnestly.
“After all, we both have... um… ‘special abilities.’”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uM2oal4Ex
Wang Meili gave him a sidelong glance, then looked at the Persian cat in her arms, who was currently giving a judgmental look at a mutt chasing its own tail. She suddenly let out a sigh.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1hGy8m7hX
“Alright, seeing as you’re being so serious… and besides, it might actually be fun.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtAyN83bZ8
And so, on a sunny afternoon, in a park filled with the smell of dog poop, the Community College Supernatural Research Club welcomed its second (and only other) member.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtxoG7CEWs
A “Save Humanity Grand Operation” formed by a broke, good-for-nothing club president and a part-time model with pink-colored superpowers quietly began.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dxnOBqO9j
And their first step—was to find that so-called legendary “Dog King.”
