"A Supernatural Encounter… and a Supernatural Problem"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlJe6bgjn1
"Supernatural phenomenon! It has to be! This is amazing! I finally caught it on camera!"
The bespectacled nerd waved his arms in excitement, completely oblivious to the chaotic aftermath of the "Canine Summit" around him—or to the awkward expressions on Lin Xiaoqiang and Wang Meili’s faces.

"Um… and you are…?" Lin Xiaoqiang asked cautiously.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DaRK9c9aO
"Just call me Nerd! I'm with the community college photography club, and also a... well... supernatural phenomena enthusiast!" Nerd pushed up his thick glasses and beamed at Wang Meili.
"That pink light just now… was that your power? That’s so cool! You can turn things pink! How does it work? Is it energy discharge or quantum entanglement?"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0kd7Hc5T4
Wang Meili blinked, momentarily thrown off by the barrage of questions. She gave an awkward chuckle.
"Uh… it’s sort of… a personal gift, I guess."
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ397naZKS6y
Lin Xiaoqiang looked into Nerd’s eager eyes and had a sinking feeling in his gut. Sure enough, the guy turned to him next.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vDwwHsEAA
"And what about you? You looked super intense just now. Wait—are you a psychic too?" His eyes sparkled with hope.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dYh7gnDeI
Lin Xiaoqiang cleared his throat and pointed at a tree nearby, where a squirrel was nibbling on the bark.
"I, uh… I study plant ecology."
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWJqsHP9Ps
The lie crumbled instantly.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvW2HEAcgs
"Liar! I heard you mention a 'Dog King' and 'world domination' just now!" Nerd squinted like a detective who had just cracked the case.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOS28UG7nn
Lin Xiaoqiang sighed in defeat.
"Fine… I admit it. I can hear animals’ thoughts."
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aGke4B4Gr
"NO WAY?! That’s amazing! So what were the dogs saying earlier? Are they really planning to take over the world? This is huge—like, history-channel-documentary huge!"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqgZ2V3pQK
Wang Meili groaned and held her forehead.
"Keep your voice down! What if those dogs hear you?"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PJ1phw09j
"No worries! I recorded everything! I’ll analyze their battle plans when I get home!" Nerd proudly held up his camera, as if he’d just filmed proof of alien life.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVSXlIGwWA
Lin Xiaoqiang and Wang Meili exchanged another glance. Neither of them said it, but their eyes spoke volumes:
This guy might be more dangerous than the dogs.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ROTDJnWfW
And they were right.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkmuTGVJv8
Determined to "better understand the enemy," Nerd started showing up in the park every day with his camera gear, roaming around like a documentary filmmaker on a mission. He’d randomly sprint up to groups of dogs, shove his lens in their faces, and mutter things like:
"Yes! Give me that eye contact! I want to capture your world-dominating ambition!"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcExkv7UV8F
Unsurprisingly, the dogs soon became wary—and irritated.
What had once been a relatively secretive "canine uprising" was now attracting attention thanks to this overly enthusiastic documentarian.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6n7wOjVmRr
Even worse, Nerd came up with his own strategies to "help."
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZF4bx4cR7
"Based on my analysis, the Dog King must have some unique charisma! If we find his weakness, we can dismantle their power structure from within!" Nerd announced confidently.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKHF6pDPqA
So he began placing bizarre "bait" all over the park—pink-bowed bones, squeaky toys playing cat sounds, and other nonsense designed to "confuse the leader."
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHFuH3OMMe
The result? Total chaos.
Fights broke out among the dogs over the strange "strategic supplies," with loud barking and frantic tussling filling the air.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPCxruPasK
Lin Xiaoqiang, listening to the furious and bewildered dog thoughts around him, wanted to crawl into a hole.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0yicjkIYY
"What the heck is up with that pink bone?! Is this some kind of insult to canine dignity?!"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfuFQkYdoP
"CAT SOUNDS?! Is this a feline declaration of war?! Charge, brothers!"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF2ggjHOUL
Any semblance of authority the Dog King had managed to build collapsed overnight.
Enraged, he barked furiously at Nerd—who, of course, misread the whole situation.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bOdB95Vd8
"Look! He’s engaging with me! He must sense my brilliance!" Nerd cried, snapping photos with wild enthusiasm.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOF7BigClL
Lin Xiaoqiang and Wang Meili stared in stunned silence.
They had finally learned a painful truth:
Sometimes, a clueless ally is scarier than the enemy.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnRzAFiusq
So… what glorious future awaits this “Anti-Dog Alliance” now that Nerd has joined their ranks?
And how will the Dog King respond after suffering these humiliating setbacks?

🐶✨ Stay tuned for the next bark-tastic disaster!
