Even from afar, Chi Jiao could clearly smell the indescribable stench in Black’s mouth. Goosebumps appeared on her back. “Don’t come over!”

Chi Jiao didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if Black licked her with its stinky tofu-flavored tongue. Would she die on the spot?

Blackie looked very aggrieved. It clearly didn’t know what it had done wrong to be scolded so harshly.

Dang Nan and the other two still looked doubtful. After hesitating for a long time, they asked, “What’s going on?”

“Uncle Da Liu, please explain to us.” Chi Jiao stared at him. It wasn’t difficult to guess that he knew everything.

Da Liu sighed before saying, “I don’t know how to explain it to you. However, I can tell you with certainty that I’m not a dog abuser. I’ve never abused Blackie. It was some of my co-workers who abused it. Blackie is a very special dog. It’s especially smart and likes to play with people very much. Moreover, it has a very special ability. It can change how people taste food.”

“There’s such a magical dog?” Yi Lanlan said in surprise.

Da Liu nodded firmly. “It’s just that Blackie’s taste is especially strange. As you saw earlier, it especially likes to eat things with strong flavors. Stinky tofu, durian, coriander, and other such things are his favorite. Once it likes someone, it will want the person to eat these foods too…”

Dang Nan looked enlightened. “No wonder. Teacher Xing Yue accompanied us to play with Blackie today. Blackie probably likes us and Teacher Xing Yue, that’s why it changed our taste buds and let us taste its favorite foods.”

“Yes. My former colleague realized that every time Blackie came back, something would go wrong with the food. He would beat up Blackie many times behind my back. I didn’t want to give up on it, nor did I want it to continue harming others. Therefore, I locked it in a small wooden house in the mountains,” Da Liu said as he patted Blackie’s head.

Blackie liked Da Liu very much and rubbed its head against his palm affectionately.

Da Liu couldn’t help smiling, his eyes filled with love.

Bai Weiyu blushed in embarrassment and bowed. “I’m sorry, Uncle Da Liu. I didn’t understand the situation and wronged you.”

Da Liu didn’t mind at all and smiled brightly. “It’s all my fault. Although I did it for Blackie’s sake, I still locked it up and restricted its freedom…”

“Uncle Da Liu, you’re a chef. If you keep Blackie, it will definitely affect you. Jiaojiao, can you help Uncle Da Liu?” Yi Lanlan turned to look at Chi Jiao, placing all her hopes on her.

“This young lady can help me?” Da Liu looked at her in confusion.

Chi Jiao was wearing light pink pajamas. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, making her look like a fairy under the moonlight. Her deep, beautiful eyes were especially charming.

“Of course, Uncle Da Liu. Jiaojiao is a fortune-teller. Perhaps she can tell what kind of monster is possessing Blackie!” Bai Weiyu explained.
