"A Supernatural Encounter… and a Supernatural Problem"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6odOwc7Ac
"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.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQsgkEpmVr
"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?"

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."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy9HnwqSff
Lin Xiaoqiang looked into Nerd’s eager eyes and had a sinking feeling in his gut. Sure enough, the guy turned to him next.

"And what about you? You looked super intense just now. Wait—are you a psychic too?" His eyes sparkled with hope.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO31u2MlyZq
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."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFZJQsSOwg
The lie crumbled instantly.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs6Y2F3FOx
"Liar! I heard you mention a 'Dog King' and 'world domination' just now!" Nerd squinted like a detective who had just cracked the case.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf9lwOwm82
Lin Xiaoqiang sighed in defeat.
"Fine… I admit it. I can hear animals’ thoughts."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY0jVPqPkT
"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!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTUeguB4iK
Wang Meili groaned and held her forehead.
"Keep your voice down! What if those dogs hear you?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxN7L8YvKe
"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.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Yt00y9hRT
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.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuQIVYrZ9N
And they were right.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbT6af1lrzz
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!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qYrjG8W2D
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.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcfOQOwXwk
Even worse, Nerd came up with his own strategies to "help."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8O92Rgh88
"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.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlIvZ3oL9d
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."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipPooV0WXl
The result? Total chaos.
Fights broke out among the dogs over the strange "strategic supplies," with loud barking and frantic tussling filling the air.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB54x5Gl6i
Lin Xiaoqiang, listening to the furious and bewildered dog thoughts around him, wanted to crawl into a hole.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhORPIOurN
"What the heck is up with that pink bone?! Is this some kind of insult to canine dignity?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdvA89B1Kx
"CAT SOUNDS?! Is this a feline declaration of war?! Charge, brothers!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8evfCgcAr
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.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1PgECdp9r
"Look! He’s engaging with me! He must sense my brilliance!" Nerd cried, snapping photos with wild enthusiasm.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xZfcrbvTx
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.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte41xlBxRq
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!
