Chapter 152: Something Is Fishy

Hearing Suming's question, Mr. Lin's mouth twitched twice, and he looked somewhat sheepish and evasive, mumbling, "The situation was so sudden, and with the county's finances tight, funding would definitely prioritize the human rescue stations first, to ensure the animals', and our rescue station has never had to rescue so many dogs in one go. As the director, this is all I can do for now. The death toll of the dogs is rising, and we had no choice but to ask for your help, if this doesn't work out, we will have to figure out another solution ourselves..."

Listening to Mr. Lin speak, Suming quickly sensed something wasn't quite right.

What Mr. Lin called 'just doing this for now' effectively meant neglecting the issue. If left long enough, the problem would resolve itself as the dogs died off, and the hot potato would simply cease to exist. This was a way of stalling for time because time could solve all problems.
