Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 472 Occupying Chu City (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Although we know from the sacrifice of that heroic soldier that the enemy plans to make a move midway through the Military Games, we cannot guarantee that the enemy will not change their plans during this period, and we must also be wary of the possibility that they may enter Chu City ahead of schedule."

The old leader stared intently at Lin Ge, then looked around at everyone, and said in a deep voice, "Therefore, our battle doesn't begin with the opening of the Military Games, but rather we must start preparing for all possibilities right now. I trust Mimi's abilities, and with the several police dogs in Chu City that have been trained in advance, we can form a patrol team. While the other police dogs and their handlers are undergoing training, Mimi will lead them to patrol and inspect all the main roads, airports, and hotels in Chu City. We will also deploy a dedicated mobile force, ready to deploy at any time. It's good if we don't find anything unusual, but if we do, we must deal with it immediately!"

Everyone was shocked by the old leader's words. Was this to start the defensive war half a month ahead of schedule? It wasn't that it was impossible, but was it really necessary?
Seriously, is it really necessary to have police cats and dogs patrolling the entire city like idiots? With the police force of Chu City, foreigners would be spotted as soon as they arrive. Why would we need to search everywhere like blind men feeling an elephant?

"Don't say anything more, this is the decision!"

The old leader didn't give anyone a chance to question it, waving his hand and saying in a deep voice, "This is a suggestion that the National Security Department specifically sent to me. There must be some truth to it, so there's no need to question it anymore."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent. Anything involving national security is not something ordinary people can comment on.

"Could it be to guard against... people like Zhu Wentao?"

Lin Ge had some guesses.

Or perhaps everyone here is a shrewd individual? They all instantly considered this possibility.

Lin Ge, who thought he could slack off for a few days, was forced to work overtime ahead of schedule by a simple order from his old boss. Naturally, the person in charge of this preliminary work was Wei Zhengxun, which did not surprise Lin Ge.

Lin Ge had a decent impression of this guy; at least he wasn't the type to look down on cats. While he didn't spoil the police cat to the extent that everyone at Zhanghe Police Station did, he certainly didn't disregard it. This guy seemed to know Lin Ge quite well, even knowing that Lin Ge preferred hot human food to cat food. Therefore, after the brief meeting, he directly treated Lin Ge to a big meal instead of letting him go back to Li Siyu.

"Big fish, big shrimp, and even eels and crabs! Does this guy think cats only eat seafood? But shrimp this big are quite rare. The police dog base is really impressive!"

Lin Ge looked at the dazzling array of dishes on the table in surprise, not expecting Wei Zhengxun to be so generous to him. It was truly a testament to the guy's thoughtfulness; each dish was served in a small bowl or plate, and each portion was just the right amount for a cat to finish.

"This is the famous Chujiang fish from our Chu City. It tastes very good. Would you like to try some?"

Wei Zhengxun very attentively served Lin Ge a piece of fish with his chopsticks, and then offered to peel shrimp and crab shells for him. He didn't seem to consider himself a leader at all, and his respect for subordinates was impeccable.

Of course, it's also possible that this guy is actually a hidden cat lover?
Lin Ge detected a very faint cat scent on Wei Zhengxun, not from prolonged contact, but more like a trace left from feeding stray cats. In any case, in this respect, this guy should indeed be a good person.

He stopped thinking about it and instead lowered his head to chew his food.

This fearless attitude brought a satisfied smile to Wei Zhengxun's face. He was right to call Nie Guoqiang beforehand; Nie Guoqiang knew better how to get along with this cat and how to make it obey.

"Could you lower your expectations a little? As long as I can complete this mission, I'm willing to be this cat's slave!"

Wei Zhengxun then placed another piece of Chujiang fish on Lin Ge's plate.

Lin Ge ate until he was stuffed, and he truly appreciated the skill of the chef at this police dog base. He was far more capable than the portly chef at Zhanghe Police Station; the seafood dishes were indeed delicious.

But when it comes to eating it long-term, Lin Ge still feels that his own chubby chef's cooking suits his taste better.

Ah!
After finishing his meal, Lin Ge didn't continue to act arrogantly. He felt obligated to work after being fed. Besides, he was genuinely interested in the elite police dogs of Chu City, especially the dog king, Hadogen; Lin Ge was very curious about its true capabilities.

"Wang!"

With its head tilted back, Hador barked, and unusually, it didn't wag its tail at Lingo like other police dogs.

Although its performance wasn't particularly clumsy, and it showed absolutely no signs of alertness, Lin Ge was somewhat surprised that this guy could still maintain his composure and refuse to bow down in front of him, so he gave Hado a slightly higher opinion of him.

Needless to say, the police dogs next to him forgot about their handlers the moment they got close to Lingo, and their tails wagged like windmills as they desperately tried to get closer to him.

It seems that, compared to them, Hadok is the abnormal one.

The handlers of the police dogs stared in astonishment at the scene, seeing their dogs behave so unusually for the first time. If they hadn't been holding onto their leashes, the dogs would have pounced on the cat all at once!
"Geng Yuxiang and Haduogen, Shucheng and Tangyuan, Song Huiyang and Leopard, Li Tie and Panda, Min Hao and Didi, Zhou Fangxiong and Wild Bear, they will be your next partners, responsible for all search operations before the Military World Games."

Wei Zhengxun briefly introduced the six police dogs and their six handlers to Lin Ge.

He believed Mimi would definitely remember these six people and six police dogs, because all six police dogs had performed exceptionally well in the previous competition. All six dogs had won awards in individual events, and in the bloodstain tracking event, the first, second, and third places were all taken by the Chu City police dogs. The reason for proposing police dog operations this time was that all six dogs had responded to the Tiger virus, which convinced provincial and municipal leaders of the excellent role police dogs could play in operations. To put it more bluntly, Chu City only managed to get a second-place finish in the all-around competition this time, which was also related to the fact that these six police dogs had recently been distracted by this operational mission.

"Next, under Mimi's leadership, you will conduct patrols of major traffic arteries and public venues throughout the city to ensure the smooth operation of all activities before and during the Military World Games."

Wei Zhengxun then looked at Geng Yuxiang and the other five, his expression serious, and said, "You all understand the nature of this mission. So although my next request is quite extreme, I still require you all to obey Mimi's orders! If Mimi makes any discovery, no one, including the police dogs, is allowed to question it! Do you understand what I mean? Mimi's sensitivity to the Tiger virus is stronger than that of the police dogs, so this time we must rely on her!"

"I will obey orders without question! I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"

Geng Yuxiang and the other five bowed in unison, their expressions serious and without any hint of unease. They were all from Chu City and well aware of the threat the Tiger virus posed to the city! As long as this matter could be resolved, they wouldn't hesitate to obey a cat's commands, or even become its servants!
"For the first three days, I will accompany Mimi and lead you on this mission. After three days, Mimi's trainer, Li Siyu, will complete her training and will assist Mimi in leading the team. I require that you do not underestimate her, and you are not allowed to form cliques or bully others! Li Siyu is Mimi's trainer and an excellent police officer who is also part of Mimi's team! Even if she is not as high-ranking as you, that is not a reason for you to have internal conflicts! I don't want to repeat how serious this mission is! So if any of you make any mistakes, don't blame me for being ruthless! No matter how many honors you have received before, you will be stripped of your police uniform! Do you understand?"

"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"

Geng Yuxiang and the other five bowed again without hesitation. Wei Zhengxun breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Lin Ge, and smiled, "Mimi, what do you think?"

"We're all police officers, and I believe they can prioritize important matters. Or, if anyone dares to disrespect me, don't blame me for using my authority and the mission as a weapon to teach them a lesson!"

Lingo proudly raised his head, his arrogant demeanor immediately arousing the five police dogs again, forcing their handler to tighten the leather leash.

……

Over the next few days, Lingo and his six police dogs began their daily patrols from morning till night.

Their patrol routes are different every day, almost without any pattern. Basically, led by Lin Ge, they patrol from one police station to the next, with the area between them being their daily target. Although the straight-line distance isn't far, patrolling isn't just walking along main roads; they patiently walk through every street and alley. Therefore, their daily patrols, including rest stops, often take four to five hours.

Furthermore, police dogs are not as capable as humans, nor can they match the stamina of Ringo, a special cat, so they need to rest every one or two hours. Therefore, all things considered, one police station's jurisdiction is already the limit per day.

Over the next three days, Lin Ge and his six henchmen apprehended two pickpockets, a drug addict, and three couples with illicit relationships. Their formidable team even prevented five or six fights. Even the most enraged parties, clenching their fists and brandishing bricks, quickly backed down when the six imposing police dogs appeared.

In the past few days, the silver shaggy cat perched on Hado's head has become a hot topic that has inexplicably spread throughout Chu City.

As the renowned king of police dogs in Chu City, Hadogeng is known to many. After a video of a cat wearing a police vest perched on Hadogeng's head went viral online, more and more people began to pay attention. When Lin Ge and his men were on patrol, they were often photographed from a distance, and some people even called out to Lin Ge or Hadogeng, asking for their cooperation. Lin Ge, however, ignored these requests; as long as they didn't get close, he simply pretended not to see them. But the more aloof he became, the more curious people became. Recently, more and more people gathered around, and the question of who could respond to the cat even became a popular online challenge.

Then Li Siyu took over from Wei Zhengxun. In order to avoid any impact and to facilitate the operation, Chu City prepared a temporary identity for Li Siyu, changing the letter police number on her chest into a string of numbers, so that she could experience what it was like to be a real police officer.

Then… a video of the beautiful policewoman with her police cat, followed by a police dog squad, went viral again online. Some questioned whether Chu City was deliberately creating hype to attract attention, some simply admired Li Siyu's beauty and the police cat's domineering behavior towards Hadogeng, while others were simply happy to see such a unique scene of a policewoman and her police cat. In short, there were all sorts of opinions online. But regardless, Lin Ge and his team were not affected by this incident. Everyone knew what was most important right now, and they also knew that a few online rumors were nothing in the face of the Tiger virus. If police officers were afraid of being criticized, they shouldn't be in this profession.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Ge suddenly realized that during his time in Chu City, he hadn't done anything else but memorize the city's map details. Now, he didn't even need anyone to guide him; Lin Ge knew exactly where to go for most places. He was even familiar with the areas around the various police stations in Chu City. He had also visited the four- and five-star hotels in Chu City several times.

"Could this be considered a cat-shaped map of mine?"

Lin Ge found amusement in his thoughts, but sighed that his only regret was that he hadn't had the chance to get to know the cats of Chu City for so long. After all, with six guardian cats following him around, what thick-skinned and daring cat would dare to come closer?
But then I thought, if we could include the stray cats and even pet cats in Chu City in the team, wouldn't this mission be much easier?
Moreover, Lin Ge always remembered one thing Yang Xiaotong had personally confirmed: felines were immune to the Tiger virus. In other words, even police dogs could be at risk from the Tiger virus. But cats, or rather, if he could gather all the cats in Chu City into an army, they would become a powerful force that the Tiger virus could absolutely not harm! Even with their mobility and camouflage abilities, the enemy would never suspect that the stray cats on the street had been recruited by the police. No matter how careful or cunning they were, they might still slip up under the watchful eyes of the nearby stray cats and be caught in one fell swoop.

Lin Ge acted on his impulse and that very evening asked Li Siyu to help announce a day off, allowing the police dogs and their handlers, who had been working hard for more than ten days, to rest and for the handlers to take care of their personal matters.

This news brought immense joy to the six trainers!

To be honest, in these ten days, they've passed by their own homes several times without going in! Every day is spent patrolling, and at night they rest at the police dog base, the city police station, or the nearest police station. Forget about talking to their girlfriends or wives these days; after a whole day on the move, they all just collapse into bed and fall asleep immediately. They even have to bathe the dogs and patiently massage their paws before bed…

Therefore, after determining that the cat could no longer hold on and needed a day of rest, the six trainers quickly took the dog to the municipal kennel overnight and then rushed home without hesitation.

So the next day, everyone who came looking for the internet-famous cat and police dog based on the online news came up empty-handed.

Once Lin Ge took off his police uniform vest, at first glance he looked no different from an ordinary silver shaded cat. At most, he looked a little fatter and stronger, and no one would associate him with that police cat.

Accompanied by Li Siyu, Lin Ge arrived at the famous university town in Chu City. This is also the place with the most stray cats in Chu City, or rather, near any university, there will never be a shortage of senior cat students, senior cat owners, and people who abandon their cats after a few days.

After showing her police ID, the security guards at the university town did not hinder Li Siyu at all, allowing her to easily enter Chu City University, the most prestigious university in Chu City, while carrying the cat.

It was still break time, but Li Siyu didn't have time to wonder what classes were like for some of the nation's top university students. Guided by Lin Ge, she arrived at a small hill near the school dormitory. Without Lin Ge's directions, she saw a bunch of feline seniors lying on the grass, squatting on the cobblestone path, sitting on bicycle seats, and sprawled along the roadside. These cats were completely unafraid of people; they wouldn't even let someone ride a bicycle past. The result of this standoff was that the foolish humans obediently surrendered, turning around to avoid these feline tyrants. It was precisely because of this pampering, or rather, not provoking them, that the number of cats on this university was so exaggerated that Li Siyu found it unbelievable. Li Siyu didn't even know how these cats had become so arrogant, or where so many cats found enough food every day.

Suddenly, a curse came from nearby. At the entrance of the dormitory building on the first floor, a tabby cat was being grabbed by the neck and thrown out of the building by the female dormitory supervisor. Amidst the supervisor's curses and shouts, the cat rolled on the ground in a sorry state before fleeing in panic.

As soon as the dormitory supervisor appeared, all the cats nearby seemed to have seen their nemesis, and they all scrambled to their feet in a panic. Even though the supervisor stood still, these cats all made cowardly attempts to run away.

"Ow!"

How could Lin Ge let these cats escape? Seeing this, he quickly jumped out of Li Siyu's arms, stood on the railing of the pavilion on the hill, and roared.

This strange meow startled all the cats that were planning to retreat.

For some reason, the sudden, unfamiliar meow made them feel incredibly close, as if they had seen their owner. Even just hearing the sound made the cat tyrants feel an urge to submit. Furthermore, the meow carried the meaning of gathering, causing the dozen or so cats around to stop and turn around, rushing towards Lin Ge's direction, which was also the direction of the small hill pavilion.

"Hiss... This is really..."

Even though it wasn't the first time she'd seen something like this, Li Siyu still found it incredibly unbelievable to see so many cats, whom she'd never met before, running over to show their submission to Mimi.

But at the same time, she suddenly became excited.

The stronger Mimi's team is, the stronger the capabilities she can bring to the next mission, and the higher the probability of successfully stopping the Tiger virus from ravaging Chu City.

Perhaps this time, Mimi can really become a hero!
