There was no trace of wind in the air, and within a few steps, Zhang Zian’s clothes were drenched with sweat.

Fortunately, the pet clinic is not too far away, and he walks fast, and he will be there in ten minutes.

Sun Xiaomeng’s car was parked in front of the clinic. The hood was still hot, and another unknown luxury car was parked next to it.

It was early in the morning, and the clinic was empty.

Zhang Zian pushed the door.

Nurse Longxian was yawning as she cleans up the nurse’s table, and when she saw him, she quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

“Director Zhang, is there something for you to be here so early?” he asked.

“Is there an emergency?” He asked openly without hesitating.

“Yes. Miss Xiao Meng just entered,” she replied with certainty.

“Well...what animal is it? A cat? A dog?” He asked again. If the answer was not a dog, then he would go back to his house to avoid disturbing others.

“Dog. I was still sleeping when I heard it slamming the door.” Long Xian was afraid that the customers inside could hear her and murmured. She usually sleeps in the clinic, and it can save her a lot of rent.

“Oh...what’s wrong? Trauma? Or ...” he asked again.

“Uh...it’s not trauma. If it’s a trauma, I won’t call Sister Xiaomeng...Anyway, It’s not in good shape. I can’t see anything wrong with it either.” She shook her head.

“Shall I go in and see?” He asked.

Longxian laughed. “As long as the customer has no complaints, that is fine. Why not wear a mask? The customer may think that you are a veterinarian.”

Zhang Zian took the mask she had handed him, walked to the entrance of the clinic, and then probed and looked inside.

A golden retriever was lying on the consultation table, looking very weak.

Sun Xiaomeng held a stethoscope and moved back and forth between its chest and abdomen. Although she wore a mask to cover most of her face, he still could see that her face was rather serious, which meant that the condition of the golden retriever might not be good.

The golden retriever’s master was a middle-aged man. He stood anxiously beside and kept asking, “How is it? How is it?”

“Cough!”

Zhang Zian coughed and made a gesture for him to calm down and stop talking, for it is affecting the doctor’s diagnosis and treatment.

Sun Xiaomeng raised her eyebrows unexpectedly when she saw him, but didn’t say anything, focused on examining the golden retriever.

The middle-aged man may have really treat Zhang Zian as a medical staff in the clinic, but just glanced at him. Nevertheless, he did stop asking further questions.

Zhang Zian looked around and saw that this golden retriever’s eyes were dull, its response to a stranger’s arrival was slow, was not moving much, and its eyeballs were a little pale. It lay on the side of the consultation table, and its mouth was not closed. Its tongue dangled weakly from its mouth, and the saliva moistened the white cloth.

After a while, Sun Xiaomeng took off her stethoscope and put on the golden retriever a special oxygen inhalation device for pets.

“How is it?” The man could not help but ask. He can’t wait anymore.

Sun Xiaomeng shook her head. “The cause is unknown at the moment, and it can only be treated conservatively. Further examination may be required...”

“You don’t know?” The man seemed to be made so furious he smirked. “Can you cure it, just tell me in my face. If you can’t cure it, say that you can’t cure it! Just because you are nearby, that is why I came here. If I knew you couldn’t do it, I would have taken it directly to the pet hospital. Why would I waste time here? ”

“I’m sorry, I can understand your mood, but...” Sun Xiaomeng whispered and advised.

“No more, but If you can cure it, say you can cure it. If you can’t cure it, you can say no. So can you or can you not?” The man interrupted rudely.

Zhang Zian watched and felt embarrassed for Sun Xiaomeng, but this is also the daily state of domestic medical staff. Whether it is treating people or treating pets-medical people who treat people may still be valued, There are also measures in major hospitals to prevent trouble, but doctors and nurses in such pet clinics may actually be more at risk. After all, people cherish pets that have been with them for years or even decades, and they have already been treated as family and friends.

“Friend, don’t worry. You want the doctor to treat the dog, so the least you can do is to talk about the situation first. How did this dog get sick?” He began to help.

“How did it get sick? How do I know? Over the last few days, it was pretty good. However, these days it got more and more lethargic...Usually, it jumps to bed in the morning to wake me up with my wife, but this morning I woke up with my wife, and It lay on the ground like this...” The man said and got more and more distressed.

“Did it want any unusual food these days? For example, when you are going out to walk the dog.” Zhang Zian asked again.

“No! It ate as usual!” The man snapped back.

“Then...what brand of dog food does it eat?”

The questions of Zhang Zian surprised both Sun Xiaomeng and the middle-aged man.

“Dog food brand? It’sImported, what’s the name...Leshi? It’s the one that has always been advertised recently.” The man thought about it, “What does this have to do with dog food? It has been eating it for a long time, and there is no problem. It’s only over these days that its condition started going bad.

Zhang Zian’s heart sank.

Le Shi was neither potato chips nor TV, but the Chinese translation of the dog food imported from the United States. When Qi Tong came to sell to Zhang Zian, there was no official translation, but for the convenience of sales in China, they came up with a nice-sounding name so that it will leave a good impression on people.

He couldn’t say that this Golden Retriever’s condition was related to dog food, but its sluggish state resembled the strangely sick employees at the scrap purchase station-he didn’t see it, he just heard about it though. Thus, he cannot guarantee the degree of similarity between the two cases.

The middle-aged man aggressively asked Sun Xiaomeng whether it could be cured. He had already looked down on such a small clinic. If there were a large pet hospital nearby, he would have already brought a dog here.

“I’m sorry, I can’t give any guarantee, and the equipment here is not complete. If you are not assured, then go to a larger pet hospital.” Sun Xiaomeng said helplessly. She actually wanted to find out the cause of the dog, but the attitude of the dog owner made her feel anxious, in case it was not cured...she didn’t want to take the risk.

“Hum! Say it early then! Grumble...”

The middle-aged man stomped his feet, unhooked the oxygen mask, hugged the golden retriever vigorously, stepped out of the clinic, and kept on shouting vulgarities.

Sun Xiaomeng has long been used to it, and she tried to hide the unwillingness and humiliation in her eyes. Taking off her mask lightly, she asked Zhang Zian. “Why are you here in the morning? And why are you asking about dog food? Is there something that you know?”

Zhang Zian thought slightly and said, “Oh, I came here to say that, I have something to go abroad recently. Binhai may have a typhoon crossing this season. When I’m not here, if you have time, help me look out for my store. Of course, you have to be careful here as well.”

He changed the topic for now and avoided answering her questions because he didn’t know how to answer them. He didn’t want to talk about things that he was not sure about.

“By the way, if you encounter a dog with that symptom again, it’s better just to avoid dealing with it,” he advised before returning to the store.
