Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 496 - 495: Not a Dog That Obeys Any Command

Chapter 496: Chapter 495: Not a Dog That Obeys Any Command

Lin Wanwan entered the yard in a grand manner with the master carpenter to set up the doghouse.

The German Shepherd, Wu Fugui, was squatting on the marble at the front door, tilting its head and observing carefully. It seemed to understand that this was a house being built for it, its body reserved, but its face full of anticipation.

This German Shepherd had really become quite refined, with expressions that were very anthropomorphic.

The person setting up the doghouse wasn’t a professional carpenter; he was the owner of a pet shop, named Chen Chen, who had broken up with his girlfriend three months ago and was currently single.

Originally, this job should have been done by a store employee, but who could resist when the purchaser of the doghouse was a stunning beauty!

Chen Chen, in a moment of excitement, decided to drive over himself and set up the doghouse for the beauty, perhaps with the thought of getting to know her better.

A fair and lovely young lady, living in a single villa, would make any man’s heart flutter.

Even if she wasn’t fair and lovely, any wealthy young lady would be popular enough. Being able to save twenty years of struggle is the pursuit of most ordinary men.

However, Chen Chen came with the intention of flirting with a beauty, but during the process of setting up the doghouse, his attention got diverted by the German Shepherd.

Owning a pet store, Chen Chen was, of course, a pet lover himself.

He had a Golden Retriever, which was also considered a smart dog, but compared to the German Shepherd in front of him, it was a world of difference.

This German Shepherd didn’t need to bark, just by looking at its expressions and eyes, you could feel its stability and grandeur.

"Miss, has your German Shepherd been trained?"

"Yes, it has, its name is Wu Fugui."

Lin Wanwan was waiting on the side for Chen Chen to finish assembling the doghouse. She had also bought a sponge dog bed, an automatic water dispenser, an automatic feeder, an anti-stepping dog toilet, and other things, ready to be placed in once the doghouse was set up.

"Wu Fugui? That’s a very down-to-earth name." Chen Chen twitched his lips upon hearing it. The beauty in front of him was from the post-2000 generation, right? Such unique naming, it was far from the "Bobbi" or "Pete" names of their post-90s generation dogs, too rustic, not showing the nobility of this German Shepherd, "Your German Shepherd looks very smart. Hey, Wu Fugui, stand up, turn around, can you turn around?"

The German Shepherd, Wu Fugui, gave Chen Chen a little eye, disinterested in his request, looking like it was silently mocking him.

It was a soldier; it wouldn’t do such stupid "turn-around" commands.

Every day, it trained for things like security patrols, contraband identification, tactical obstacle crossing, reconnaissance searches, and enemy tracking—high difficulty, high-intensity tasks. All meaningful things, not just acting cute to please people!

And besides, this worker in front wasn’t its superior. As a qualified soldier, it only listened to its superior’s commands, the orders from others had nothing to do with it.

Military dogs and police dogs don’t consider themselves dogs; they think they are useful people.

So, many military and police dogs, after retirement, wouldn’t work and just laze around, perhaps even getting depressed, with the smarter ones having a higher likelihood. Because not being able to showcase their value after retiring made them sad and disappointed.

The one Lin Wanwan got had even gained intelligence through the Space-Time Gate, with higher IQ, having a greater pursuit of realizing self-value.

"Hey, it’s looking down on me!" Chen Chen was shocked.

Even though the German Shepherd in front of him was completely indifferent to his command just now, it was obvious from its demeanor that it simply didn’t care, rather than being unable to understand.

"This dog is too smart!" Chen Chen sighed, "Miss, where did you get this dog? Do you have any connections? Can you tell me? I’d also like to get one." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Lin Wanwan shrugged, "Sorry, I can’t help you with that. This was a prospective military dog adopted through a friend’s connections."

"One that didn’t get selected? No wonder it’s so smart!" Chen Chen exclaimed. He understood this kind of thing, even those eliminated are picked from a thousand options and trained, far beyond ordinary dogs’ reach.

Usually, such prospective military and police dogs go to auction after being eliminated to find new owners. Their value is very high, fetching hundreds of thousands per dog is common.

Ah, hundreds of thousands for a dog, he could afford it, but wouldn’t part with the money.

The doghouse villa Lin Wanwan bought was set up quite quickly because most parts were mortise and tenon structures; just align them and fit them in.

During this process, curious neighbors passed by the yard gate and stopped to watch.

Lin Wanwan, unusually enthusiastic, introduced her newly adopted dog to everyone: "Someone broke into the house, turned it completely upside down, too scary, so now we got a large dog to guard the house."

"This dog looks big." Neighbors spoke a few words with Lin Wanwan, sincerely expressing sympathy and indignation for her being a burglar’s victim.

If one household in the community gets burgled, all feel insecure. Living in the same security environment, everyone shares the sentiment.

"The extra security money each month feels wasted!" Neighbors indignantly cursed a few security guards, "The homeowner committee said in the group chat to replace the former security company and hire a new one. Did you see the message?"

Lin Wanwan said, "Yes, I saw it. I also think it’s necessary to replace them."

"The sooner the better, peace of mind!" The neighbor said, slowly walking away.

In this villa area, most residents were elderly resettlement villagers, occasionally some young people would move in and bring their kids with the help of elders. The elderly were frail, naturally more concerned about safety.

Burglary could easily turn into robbery, even murder; it’s too heinous, making one’s heart palpitate.

Soon, the news of Lin Wanwan raising a big dog spread, which was exactly what Lin Wanwan wanted.

Because she wasn’t going to leash Wu Fugui, everyone should best stay away from her house, do not enter without permission.

If it wasn’t for her house having too many secrets, hiring a bodyguard would be inconvenient, otherwise, Lin Wanwan would have considered getting one.

The modern times were different from the Great Tang, even a bodyguard maintains an equal relationship with their employer, making it difficult to arrange, unable to demand absolute loyalty.

People becoming bodyguards were just for making a living and wouldn’t give their life to their employer. Unlike in the Great Tang, where a slave’s life was closely tied to their master’s.

Lin Wanwan didn’t trust modern bodyguards but was very fond of the near-military-grade German Shepherd sent by Lu Shouyue.

In fact, if not for cloud leopards being protected animals that ordinary people couldn’t keep, Lin Wanwan would have wanted to call back the three she released to guard the house, exuding a domineering presence that would surely intimidate any petty criminals.

Since Lin Wanwan released the cloud leopards, the mountains and forests where they left their tracks were reportedly being zoned into a nature reserve. Recently, that area was closed to tourists for fear of the cloud leopards unintentionally harming people, experts had to research a bit before reopening.

In the future, if given a chance, Lin Wanwan still hoped to visit them.
