The days of being a cat in Japan

Hearing the sounds of quarrels and fights coming from the alley, Xu Jie hesitated.

It looked at the kittens here, wondering if it should continue on this road.

But the short alley is the closest to Tianyuan's house from here. If they don't go here, they have to go around in a big circle and go around to Tianyuan's house from the right back of this block.

The distance of that road is much longer than this road. Even if the cat walks on four legs, it will take nearly 10 minutes longer.

If it was normal, Xu Jie, who is cautious, would definitely choose the longer route, after all, it is safer to go there.

But now the kittens have been running outside for a day, and only took a nap for less than an hour at noon, and now they are all listless.

Looking at the kittens who were snuggling up to each other and started to doze off standing up, Xu Jie asked Mo, "Mo, there are people fighting over there. If we continue to go that way, will we be in danger?"

Hearing the words, the big black cat stood up and sniffed at the entrance of the alley and said, "There is no smell of blood, gun oil or gunpowder. There is a strong smell of distiller's grains in the air, probably from drinking too much." The drunks started fighting. Such guys are usually not too bold, as long as we don’t move forward, basically there will be no major problems. Even if there are problems, I can let you leave smoothly.”

After hearing what the big black cat said, Xu Jie suddenly became more confident.

Meow, people fight and don't care about cats, just walk past the wall.

In case of encountering a pervert, the cat must vent its anger. If it can't beat the cat, it can still run. I don't believe that a two-legged one can catch up with a four-legged one.

Thinking of this, Xu Jie decided to continue walking along the alley, but he rearranged his formation.

Mo was arranged at the front by Xu Jie, so that in case of any emergency, the big black cat could respond in time.

Xu Jie walked at the back, and the three kittens were sandwiched between the two big cats. Xu Jie felt that this position was the safest, and even if something happened, they would fall on the two big cats first.

The cats who were walking against the wall stopped when they reached the middle of the alley. In the middle of the small road, there were two drunk men who looked like they were drunk and were wrestling and tearing each other.

There is no need to get close to them, Xu Jie knows that those two have been drinking a lot.

When they were fighting and cursing each other, their articulation was a little unclear, and it seemed that they had drunk too much.

The small alley, which was originally not spacious, became even narrower because of the tearing of these two people.

Since the two guys who were tearing apart were constantly moving, the cats were not sure when and where they would appear. In view of this, Mo, who was leading the way, decided to stop and have a look before talking.

After Mo stopped, one two three four quickly stretched out from behind the big black cat, four small... er, no, three small heads and a smaller cat head.

Through the big black cat, the four pairs of eyes carefully observed the two drunken fights, and were always ready to turn around and run away if there was any trouble.

Fortunately, this kind of thing didn't happen, and the two drunks who were screwed together quickly decided the winner.

The winner pressed the loser to the ground, and after a few hard blows with his fist, he spit out a mouthful of phlegm and left.

The one who failed didn't seem to have any serious problems, except for a little skin on his face.

He lay on the ground for a while, and after a short rest, he stood up and walked away unsteadily.

Seeing that the two people who were fighting were far away, and the cats were about to rearrange their formation and walk again, a voice came slowly from the shadow in the innermost part of the alley.

The man's goal was the metal soda cans thrown on the ground by the drunks. When he came out of the shadows, Xu Jie was surprised to find that the guy was the homeless man who had dinner with them just tonight.

The homeless man was also obviously surprised when he saw the cats. He was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Hey cats, we met again. It seems that this is really destined. You want to go to my place and have a sit down." ?"

All the cats looked in the direction of his finger, and saw that under the edge of a room, a few newspapers were thrown together to make a very simple 'temporary bed'.

The bed was already covered with footprints because of the fight between the two homeless men just now, but the homeless man didn't care much about it.

He found a fairly quick place to sit down, and put the soda cans he had just picked up into a black collection bag. After doing this, he began to tidy up the messy newspaper bed.

As a kitten who has already shared food with the 'wild man', Meili feels it is her duty to help her friend in need.

So she turned around and said to the other cats: "Uncle Mo, Uncle Ajie, and sisters, you go home first, I'm here to help the savage clean up his nest. Anyway, it's not too far away from home." It’s not far away, after packing up and playing, I can get home by myself in three to five minutes.”

After finishing speaking, the kitten didn't care about the faces of her sisters, and jumped happily to help the wild man organize the newspapers.

The homeless man who was turning over the soiled newspaper suddenly felt itchy on his calf, as if something fluffy had rubbed against it.

He looked down and saw that the little tortoise shell that had given him eggs tonight was biting one side of the newspaper with its mouth, trying to help him.

The corner of the homeless man's mouth slowly turned upwards, squatted down and rubbed the tortoiseshell's little head with his hands, and said, "Little cat, thank you, but your strength is too weak, just watch from the side, I can do it by myself." .”

As he spoke, he gently pushed Meili away with the back of his hand.

Being pushed out by the savage, Xiao Meili didn't show any signs of frustration. She still squatted on the ground very curiously, staring at the homeless man with a pair of cat eyes.

Meow, is this your den, the savage?The home of the kitten and his parents and sisters is not far away. Why didn't I see you when I passed by here before?

Seemingly seeing the kitten's doubts, the homeless man who had re-spread the newspapers sat on the ground, and said gently to the cats: "You are walking from here so late, you live near here. I am I just came from Kyoto a few days ago, and I live here temporarily. But in order not to affect the traffic, I only make my bed here after 10 o'clock every day, and I have to leave at [-] o'clock in the morning. No wonder we haven't met before .”

Hearing this, Xu Jie scratched his chin with his paws. It remembered that those vagabonds in the past liked to rest in the subway or underground passages. This person's habit is quite special.

In this way, Xiao Meili knew that Mr. Savage was her neighbor. Since then, she had to get up early every day and come to play with Mr. Savage.

Gradually, the homeless man and the beautiful kitten became more and more familiar, and now the two of them often get together to eat or take a nap.

Mr. Tramp has a fixed place to take a nap every day, which is the wooden bench in the park where the cat and the human met for the first time.

Although he still has to learn skills from Uncle Mo, the kitten still insists on going to the park to accompany his new friend every time he takes a nap.

Xu Jie, who is also very curious, once asked the kitten why it became friends with that wild man?

The two of them can't even communicate effectively, and it's such a weird friendship.

Little Meili blinked her eyes and said, "Why did you become friends with the Savage? The cat doesn't know. Meili can just feel that the Savage is lonely and lonely now, and the cat wants to be with him."

Among cats, Meili is very sensitive to emotions. Xu Jie thinks this may be the reason why this child is full of emotions.

As a domestic cat, Xu Jie does not object to the contact between kittens and humans. As long as that person loves the cat and does not harm it, Xu Jie believes that everyone can get along peacefully.

But Tianyuan, who was born as a pure wild cat, obviously doesn't think so, and it doesn't agree with the too close contact between the youngest daughter and a human.

The homeless man who just woke up from a nap that day opened his eyes, and found that not far from him, there was a pastoral cat with a flat face looking at him with resentment.

The homeless man who was startled got up instantly, and then felt that he had seen the big cake face of the cat there before.

The movement of the homeless man awakened the beauty sleeping next to him. The kitten opened its eyes, and seemed to see its father in a haze.

The sleepy bugs were all startled flying, and the beauty jumped up on the bench in an instant like a spring, and after landing, they meowed at the pastoral coquettishly.

This trick was learned beautifully from Xu Jie. The kittens who have been with the big black cat and the raccoon cat for the past few days discovered that as long as Uncle Ajie yelled at Uncle Mo so delicately, the raccoon cat would No matter what mistakes the uncle made, Dahei uncle will forgive it.

But this trick obviously didn't work for Tianyuan. The silly father who felt that his little daughter was about to be abducted bared his teeth at his daughter angrily.

Seeing that her father was angry, Xiao Meili didn't dare to lose her temper anymore, and obediently ran to her father's side with her ears behind her back, as if she was ready to listen to the training.

Seeing the performance of the tortoiseshell kitten, the tramp knew that this stern-faced pastoral cat should be an elder of the tortoiseshell kitten.

It seemed that when he saw the little tortoiseshell here for the first time, this big Tian Yuan had been staring at him fiercely not far from them.

So this is because the kitten doesn't come home often, so the elders in the family came over?

Thinking of this, Mr. Tramp said to Tian Yuan very politely: "Are you the mother of tortoise shell? Your kitten is very good, smart and gentle."

Tian Yuan, who was already at the beginning, immediately blew up when he heard the words, slapped his paws on the ground furiously, and roared loudly at the homeless man.

Meow, are you blind?Lao Tzu is male and male.

The tramp didn't know why the big Tianyuan was angry.

After all, anyone with a little common sense knows that females have always been responsible for taking care of cubs in the cat family, and it is really rare to see such fatherly love as Tianyuan.

From this we can know where the beauty's full love comes from, and follow the roots properly.
