Lin Changqing brought Little Tiger around the alley, mainly because Little Tiger was sniffing.

Lin Changqing’s perception far exceeded that of ordinary people, but his nose was definitely not as good as Little Tiger’s. Moreover, this alley was filled with the smell of blood, mixed with a very pungent smell.

Lin Changqing took a sniff and took the initiative to control his nose to reduce his sense of smell. He really couldn’t stand the smell here.

“Those murderers used a powder to conceal their scent. Ordinary dogs don’t dare to approach this place at this time. Your dog is indeed extraordinary. What’s its name?”

Bao Zigang led a few powerful members of the White Tiger Hall to stay by Lin Changqing’s side. When he saw Lin Changqing and Little Tiger walking around, and only Little Tiger was sniffing around the corpses, he spoke to Lin Changqing.

“It’s called Little Tiger. It was originally a stray dog with very strong survival abilities. I don’t know if it’s talented or if it had some fortuitous encounter. After I met it, I realized that my communication with it was very smooth, so I slowly trained it. It followed me just like that.”

Lin Changqing was chatting with Bao Zigang.

“Taming pets is also a kind of talent. It’s said that there are martial arts techniques that specialize in assisting in taming pets. Hallist bought a huge wolfhound two years ago. It’s said that it has the bloodline of a demon beast and is very wild. Until now, no one has been able to tame it.

“Hallist is only relying on his strength to beat it up so that it won’t dare to act recklessly. However, if it wants to do something, it’s useless even if you beat it to death. If you can successfully find the murderer this time, I’ll talk to the hallist and let you try to subdue that wolfhound.”

Bao Zigang took the initiative to talk about the giant wolfhound of White Tiger Hall.

Lin Changqing didn’t know if Bai Zigang thought of it on the spur of the moment or if Cheng Lihu wanted him to say that. However, if he could really capture a powerful giant wolfhound as a pet, it would be an extremely good thing for Lin Changqing.

If Cheng Lihu was sincere in nurturing him, he could be considered to have the combat strength to show on the surface.

“Thank you for your guidance, Leader Bao!”

At this moment, Little Tiger had already brought Lin Changqing, Bao Zigang, and the others out of the alley, sniffing all the way to the street outside the alley.

The area near the alley had already been cleared by the Knife Gang. Other than that, the other places were still very busy. People came and went, and all kinds of businesses were done.

It was breakfast time. All kinds of breakfast shops and stalls were filled with customers. The people here were very indifferent to the life and death of others. Only the residents who originally lived in the alley were worried and surrounded the cordon of the Knife Gang to watch.

Little Tiger sniffed its way through the crowd of onlookers and walked out of the security circle. It walked towards a stall selling noodles. The complicated environment and smell on the street did not disturb Little Tiger’s powerful sense of smell.

Little Tiger stopped not far from the stall and warned Lin Changqing.

Lin Changqing looked at the stall selling noodles. There were a couple cooking and serving noodles there, greeting customers. There were only three tables and stools for guests to sit on.

Two of the tables were filled with people of all kinds. The remaining table was occupied by six men in tight clothes, all of them carrying thick sabers on their backs. One of the six men was very short, like a dwarf. He also carried a thick saber on his back, looking a little funny.

The six of them were sitting upright and eating their noodles. The six people at this table were the most suspicious in the direction of Little Tiger’s warning.

Lin Changqing patted Little Tiger and turned around with it. Bao Zigang noticed the abnormality and followed Lin Changqing further away.

“Leader Bao, the six people at the noodle stall might be the murderers. Next, as long as Little Tiger gets close to the noodle stall, we can finally determine who the murderer is.” Lin Changqing lowered his voice and whispered into Bao Zigang’s ear.

Bao Zigang glanced at the situation at the noodle stall and asked, “Are you confident?”

“Yes!” Lin Changqing replied firmly.

“Alright, listen to my arrangements.” Bao Zigang said a few words to the White Tiger Hall member beside him when the White Tiger Hall member shouted, “Yes, Leader, I want them to eat breakfast first!”

Lin Changqing, Bao Zigang, and the others waited in place. Not long after, the crowd of onlookers parted, and a large group of White Tiger Hall members and ordinary members of the Knife Gang walked over while shouting.

“Find your own place to eat! Eat up and come back to work! Come, let’s go eat noodles!”

As soon as Bao Zigang gave a few loud orders, he led Lin Changqing and a group of valiant White Tiger Hall members to the small noodle stall with sabers at their waists.

Bang, bang! Two pieces of silver were thrown onto the two tables of the small noodle stall.

“Leave, I’ll settle your bill.” Bao Zigang had just rudely chased him away.

This area was under the jurisdiction of the Knife Gang. Everyone was very familiar with the Knife Gang. The big brothers of the Knife Gang wanted to eat first. No one dared to talk nonsense. Regardless of whether they had finished eating or not, they immediately stood up and left.

Bao Zigang brought a lot of people with him, and the two tables were still not big enough. He approached the remaining table of six thick-backed sabermen. Lin Changqing took the opportunity to approach with Little Tiger.

As they got closer, Little Tiger immediately confirmed that these six people were the murderers of the murder case.

“Leader Bao, there’s no mistake!” Lin Changqing said softly to Bao Zigang.

When the members of the White Tiger Hall heard Lin Changqing’s words, they immediately made a hand gesture. The members of the White Tiger Hall and the ordinary members who were pretending to eat began to chase away the crowd on the street. The members of the White Tiger Hall, who were not weak, vaguely surrounded them.

“Everyone, are you done eating? You guys are quite bold. You just committed an important crime and still dared to eat breakfast at the scene.”

Bao Zigang saw that the six people had noticed something amiss and became vigilant. Their hands were already on the handles of their thick saber. So he immediately pointed it out and began probing.

Lin Changqing’s perception was strong. After telling Bao Zigang that his target was right, he retreated with Little Tiger.

Among the six of them, someone had already noticed him and Little Tiger.

“Hahaha! I didn’t expect you people to be so capable!” The short dwarf among the six of them laughed loudly as he replied. His voice was very rough.

“Who are you? Why are you killing people here?” Bao Zigang asked seriously.

Clang!

“Don’t you think I look funny?!” The short dwarf jumped onto the stool and skillfully pulled out his thick-backed saber.

The thick-backed saber was taller than him, and he held it firmly in his hand. The saber was big and the person was small, and he was also very ugly. He looked ridiculous.

“It’s indeed a little funny.” Bao Zigang said truthfully.

“Therefore, all of you must die.” The short dwarf revealed a very ferocious smile and said fiercely.

Clang, clang, clang…!

The sound of swords being drawn could be heard everywhere.

The other five people, as well as the surrounding members of the Knife Gang and the ordinary gang members, all drew their weapons.

Lin Changqing and Little Tiger had already retreated a distance.

“It’s the dog that found us, isn’t it? I’ll kill your dog first!”

Bang!

The short dwarf was not weak. He crushed the stool under his feet and soared into the air like an agile monkey, charging in the direction of Lin Changqing and Little Tiger.

Bao Zigang and the others wanted to block it, but they were instantly entangled by the other five who had a tacit understanding.

The few members of the White Tiger Hall who were blocking Lin Changqing’s way were instantly dodged by the extremely agile dwarf.

A thick saber slashed at Little Tiger beside Lin Changqing.
