Pet Hospital.

This is the best pet hospital nearby. Kellen searched for it nearby and didn't expect there to be so many people here.

All kinds of pets, mostly cats and dogs, as well as hamsters, parrots, and even rabbits and pigs...

Alex's head leaned against the space capsule, feeling like he had seen the world, and exclaimed, imitating the popular sound of a baby bottle on short videos, "What? What is this?"

It stared at a small guinea pig being held by its owner.

Susie replied in a busy tone, "That's a piggy."

Alex then stared at a parrot in a cage, just as green as it was.

"Hey, buddy, are you male or female?"

After accidentally flirting with a male bird last time, Alex became cautious.

However, no one (or bird) paid attention to it.

Susie followed her father to save and stomach-wash a large wolf dog.

The father and daughter were both outstanding, one tall and handsome, and the other short and cute, attracting many people to look back.

Kellen sat on a chair outside the emergency room, with one hand resting on the back of the chair, as if to protect Susie in his arms.

On the other side, his hand rested casually on the head of the stray dog he had picked up.

The stray dog didn't dare to move.

It quietly watched the people coming and going, its eyes a little timid and bleak.

Most of the dogs who came to see the doctor were held by their owners, who looked heartbroken. They were soft, clean, and beautiful.

This reminded it of the time when it was also held by its owner like this.

But later, the owner threw it away and drove to a place it didn't know.

It thought the owner was taking it to play and ran out happily.

But when it turned around, it saw the owner's car driving away, and no matter how hard it chased, it couldn't catch up.

Later, it got lost and couldn't find its way back home.

It thought the owner must have forgotten that it hadn't gotten into the car, it must not have intention...

The stray dog's eyes were dim, and it moved a little.

Kellen's palm rested on the stray dog's head like a cushion as he said lightly, "Don't move around, I'll take you to take a bath later."

The stray dog didn't move at all, occasionally glancing quickly at Kellen and then at Susie.

A beautiful girl in the lobby stretched her neck to look around, quickly spotting Kellen.

He stood out with his striking appearance, being really tall and even taller than others even when seated.

The girl's eyes lit up with joy and she quickly adjusted her expression to look anxious.

"Ah...you're here! How's the dog? Is it okay? What did the doctor say?"

She spoke while peering towards the emergency room with worry in her eyes.

Kellen paused his hand that was petting the dog's head and looked up at the girl coldly, "What's your name?"

The dog sensed the hostility and couldn't help but tremble, its legs shaking a bit.

The girl exclaimed, "Huh?" and then said dazedly, "My name is Pinky, but you can call me Lunny."

Her face showed a mix of shock and cuteness, but deep down she was screaming, He asked for my name! He noticed me! Ahhh...

At that moment, Pinky almost forgot about the dog and sat down next to Kellen on a chair, continuing to look worriedly at the emergency room.

"Ah, how could anyone be so inconsiderate as to feed a harmless dog something poisonous? Some people these days..."

"I saw an old woman near my neighborhood the other day, throwing meat bones laced with rat poison on the street, saying that she was tired of all the stray dogs and wanted to poison them all..."

Pinky ranted to herself in anger, but then turned to see Kellen not looking her way, his profile cold and unfeeling, but somehow even more talismaning.

The girl was smitten and stuttered, "You agree, right...how could people be like this...I tried to stop her at the time..."

Kellen sneered and suddenly turned his head to stare straight at Pinky, "Where did you find this wolf dog?"

Pinky's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly became excited, blood rushing to her brain and causing it to buzz, not realizing the trap in this question.

She answered without any caution, "In a small alley on Deming Street..."

Kellen got the information he wanted. Even though he could have found it through investigation, asking directly was faster.

He pulled out his phone and soon the screen turned black with green text as data flowed past. Then the screen lit up, showing the street surveillance footage of Deming Street.

Kellen looked at the surveillance footage expressionlessly.

Pinky, who was unaware, casually asked, "Oh, by the way, I don't know your names yet!" Seeing Kellen ignoring her, she turned to Susie with a friendly smile and asked, "What's your name, little friend? Is this your dog?"

Susie tried to mimic her father's aloof demeanor but failed, remained silent.

Since neither the father nor daughter answered, Pinky did not feel embarrassed and turned to the stray dog next to them, "What's wrong with your dog? Where did it go to play? It's so dirty, but so cute."

As she spoke, she reached out her hand, daring to touch it--

Kellen's hand rested on the dog's head, just in case she accidentally touched it...

But before her hand could touch the dog, Kellen coldly said, "Don't touch it. I can help you chop it off."

Pinky remained silent.

Her hand was stiff in mid-air, and she felt extremely embarrassed. "I just wanted to touch the dog..."

Retracting her hand directly was too embarrassing, so Pinky stroked the dog's back instead.

Little did she know that the seemingly gentle and even timid stray dog suddenly turned its head and bit her hand!

Although it didn't dare to bark loudly, it stared at her with bared teeth as if it knew she wasn't a good person.

Pinky screamed in shock, "Ah..."

This scream attracted the attention of others.

Pinky's eyes were teary, "Ow~ It hurts...I'm bleeding..."

Susie looked at her as if she were an idiot and muttered, "This auntie doesn't seem very bright."

Kellen finally put down his phone and glanced at the dog. "We'll take you to get a shot later."

Lunny was delighted and pretended to be reserved, "Ah...actually, you don't have to. I'm fine. I often see stray dogs on the road and sometimes get scratched while trying to help them..."

Susie couldn't resist speaking up, "Dad, he's talking to the dog, not to you!"

Kellen smiled slightly, rubbed the dog's head, and said, "Don't bite people randomly, you know? Vaccinating dogs is a hassle."

Lunny remained silent.

Susie unintentionally added, "Dad, if you're bitten by a dog, you have to get a rabies vaccine. If the dog that bit you has been in contact with unclean things, what vaccine do you need?"

Lunny remained silent.

Kellen hadn't said anything yet.

Alex, the pet in the bag, popped out a little head and shouted, "Want to kill her every second!"

Lunny remained silent.
