Tony adopted all four Maine Coon cats.
Therefore, he had to stay at the animal rescue center for a while longer to wait for additional paperwork for adopting the cats.
The adoption papers were essential, allowing Tony or any future owners to register with the local animal control agency.
When Tony left the animal rescue center, it was already getting dark.
At a quiet stretch of the road, Tony found a spot by the side of the road, parked, and began taming the Maine Coon cats while also leveling up Fighter by 2 levels.
To tame a cat, Tony had to spend 150 life points. To level them up by 2 levels, it cost an additional 700 life points per cat.
Tony spent a total of 4600 life points on the five animals, leaving him with less than 100 life points, considering the challenging effort to earn them in the past few days.
After taming and leveling up, the Maine Coon cats reached the size of a medium-sized dog, weighing around 14 kg for males and 10 kg for females.
The two Maine Coon cats with blue eyes were especially beautiful, with their long, shiny fur and captivating eyes.
Fighter, on the other hand, grew even more massive, reaching a weight close to 100 kg.
Tony looked at the five animals in the car with a sense of accomplishment as he drove towards Anna's house.
As the car entered the town, Tony was suddenly surprised to see a police car following him.
"Request for the vehicle xxx to pull over to the side of the road," a voice came from the police car's loudspeaker.
Tony was taken aback by the police car's order for him to pull over.
He felt a bit anxious, but when he saw Henry getting out of the police car, he felt a sense of relief.
Lowering the window on the driver's side, Tony said, "Hello, Uncle Henry. Are you here to arrest me?"
Henry replied, "I also want to apprehend you for a thorough inspection. Lately, you've been changing so much. Within the past ten days, you've taken down three major criminals with prior convictions. Tony, tell me, should I arrest you again?"
Tony responded, "Taking down criminals is a merit. Do you really want to arrest me?"
Henry said, "They're not ordinary criminals either."
"What do you want to talk to me about, Uncle?" Tony asked, sensing Henry's suggestive tone.
"This is something I shouldn't disclose to you as per regulations, but I think you should know. Do you remember the name of the person who attempted to assault Anna and the two who broke into Anna's house?" Henry spoke while making a gesture to check if any colleagues were around to avoid suspicion.
"Of course, I remember. It just happened recently, how could I forget?" Tony replied.
"All three of them arrived in our town on the same day. They stayed in the same hotel in town. The one attempting to assault Anna had a separate room, while the two breaking into Anna's house shared a room. On the surface, the one attempting assault and the two breaking in don't seem to know each other. According to what I see, they are part of the same gang."
"From criminal records and the evidence left behind, it appears they are members of a criminal organization specializing in kidnapping and trafficking young women into prostitution. What's strange is why they targeted Anna and Anna. Because Anna and Anna's families are relatively wealthy, the two are not suitable targets for the human trafficking criminals. I believe these two incidents are not just a simple break-in and assault."
"Tony, you need to pay more attention to their safety. And try to find out if there's any reason they want to harm Anna and Anna. Currently, these are just my speculations."
"I'm leaving now. Be careful." Henry pretended to finish his check and left.
Upon hearing Henry's words, Tony felt a bit disoriented.
He sensed that the situation might be more serious than he initially thought.
Worried, Tony quickly drove to Anna's house.
When he approached, he called Anna to open the car garage door in advance.
As Tony's car entered the garage, Anna promptly closed the door to avoid others seeing Tony's car at her house.
Seeing Tony get out of the car, Anna hugged him.
She rested her head on Tony's chest and took a deep breath, greedily inhaling the scent on Tony's body.
Tony said, "Do you miss me that much?"
Anna nodded against Tony's chest.
"Alright, let's see what gifts I brought for you." Tony said while opening the rear door of the car.
Fighter descended from the car.
Anna looked in amazement as the giant dog stepped out of the car.
She didn't expect Tony to find such a large and powerful dog for her so quickly.
In Tony's heart, there was a warm feeling of happiness.
It showed that he cared a lot about her, concerned about her safety.
Anna couldn't help but exclaim, "Tony, he's really big!"
Tony looked at Anna with a mischievous smile and said, "Is he as big as my little one?" As he spoke, Tony took Anna's hand and placed it on his pants.
