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.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqNYxNmtp5
“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.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod6XpmO7vs
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!
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOHzzeD4yu
Just as he was trying to analyze the intel, a sudden voice interrupted his thoughts.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh3wdSGBN7
“Hey! What are you sneaking around here for?”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoqAVwc6f8
Startled, Lin Xiaoqiang turned around and saw Wang Meili, holding a very expensive-looking Persian cat and looking at him with deep suspicion.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRbnYwhcuD
“I... I’m just observing the community’s ecological environment,”
Lin Xiaoqiang explained awkwardly.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRMytViPIV
“Observing the ecological environment? You look more like you’re peeping at the grandmas sunbathing over there,”
Wang Meili bluntly teased.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJkv2IzxXD
The corner of Lin Xiaoqiang’s mouth twitched. He decided to get straight to the point.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAyIBBDu8l
“Um... Wang Meili, have you noticed that the stray dogs around here have been acting a little... off lately?”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8CoWhv7m6
Wang Meili raised an eyebrow.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEifYwocFBI
“Off? Haven’t they always been noisy? Barking at night, running wild during the day, even eating the flowers in the garden.”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwGt8yz50u
“No, not that kind of off! I mean... they seem to be plotting something!”
Lin Xiaoqiang lowered his voice, speaking with a mysterious tone.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYOOFthFYs
Wang Meili snorted, then walked over to the pavilion and sat down with her Persian cat.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v1kiumvBq
“Plotting? What could they possibly be plotting? How to snatch more bones?”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkYfeFRUpa
“No! They’re plotting... to rule humanity!”
Lin Xiaoqiang blurted out.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXoZJY5jxV
Wang Meili’s hand slipped, nearly dropping the Persian cat from her arms. The pampered-looking cat let out a dissatisfied “meow.”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdLEhlueSc
“You... you said what? Rule humanity? Are you running a fever?”
Wang Meili looked at him like he was an alien.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk8i67DEBQ
“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.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnZQDzyCIT
Wang Meili was silent for a moment. Her expression shifted from doubt to something… stranger.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd8ZoilFiA
“You can hear animals’ thoughts? Seriously?”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gNyQEXrXd
Lin Xiaoqiang nodded helplessly.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1DJI8uV3w
“Yes. And they even mock me for being single.”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ckJOL520u
The corner of Wang Meili’s mouth twitched slightly, clearly trying to hold back laughter.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHuBAKkyAb
“Okay, let’s say you’re telling the truth… so what? Are we supposed to form some kind of ‘Anti-Canine Alliance?’”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV75oNVmAy
“I... I just think we should do something,”
Lin Xiaoqiang said earnestly.
“After all, we both have... um… ‘special abilities.’”
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wFluxouXX
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.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6b52GUpBA
“Alright, seeing as you’re being so serious… and besides, it might actually be fun.”

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.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7BWkYlrzT
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.
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qoLVopXx4
And their first step—was to find that so-called legendary “Dog King.”
