The days of being a cat in Japan

Dabai, who was blocked, took a closer look, and found that the one standing in front of him was actually a big and strong black cat.

Dabai knew that black cat. It should be said that all the cats in this city knew him.

It is the eldest son of Uncle Ajie, the lord, and its name is Ayan, but these cats are used to calling him Brother Tuanzi.

Brother Tuanzi was very kind to these kittens when they were young. He not only gave them toys, but also always found food for them.

However, Dabai hadn't seen this black dumpling for a few days since it came out of the nest. Later, when his brothers came back, he heard that this one came back with him.

Now seeing this childhood brother, the big white cat really feels very kind.

It immediately leaned over and greeted enthusiastically: "Brother Tuanzi, it's been a long time. Why haven't you come out to play with us after coming back for so long?"

Hearing the words, the little black cat swayed its raised tail a few times, and replied meaningfully: "The cat is waiting for you to come out of the nest, don't you think it came here?"

The simple-minded big white cat didn't understand what the little black cat said. It just thought that when it didn't come out of the nest, its parents, siblings and sisters were all there, and it might be inconvenient for Brother Tuanzi to come over.

For this reason, the big white cat replied very embarrassedly: "The cat's parents have become a little anxious recently, but isn't it almost spring? Dad and mother are busy with the next litter of younger brothers and sisters. The cat arrived here." It's like that all seasons."

The little black cat bent its eyes with a smile on hearing this, walked into the big white cat, walked around it a few times, and asked it in the inexplicable eyes of the other party: "The cat just listened to your cat's nest making noise, okay?" After a long time, I calmed down, thinking that you probably don't have time for lunch, so let's find something to eat first."

Dabai, who was not used to bothering other cats, instinctively refused after hearing the words: "No need, the cat is not very hungry."

However, just as the big white cat had just finished saying this sentence, as if deliberately trying to tear down the stage, its empty belly began to gurgle.

The big white cat who was slapped in the face by its own belly was ashamed. It lowered its head and kept pawing the hay on the ground with its paws. It felt that the cat's face under its fur was about to burn.

But embarrassment can't alleviate its still empty belly. Originally, it was understood that because of his size, this guy eats a lot more than his siblings, and he is also more likely to be hungry.

Now because of the problem of getting out of the nest, the big white cat who hasn't eaten breakfast and lunch really can't stop his belly from barking.

Looking at the big white cat's stomach growling because of hunger, a flash of distress flashed in Tuanzi's eyes.

However, in order not to frighten the other party, Tuanzi still tried his best to control his emotions and said, "What's so embarrassing, the cat watched you grow up, and you are still polite to the cat?"

The big white cat scratched its hair with its paws in embarrassment, but before it could speak, Hei Tuanzi said in advance: "The cat knows you like pork. There is a long-established fried food shop on the snack street. They The signature tonkatsu at home is very delicious, how about going to treat the cats together as a celebration of your independence?"

The big white cat was very excited when he heard the words, but after a few seconds, he shook his head and said, "Meow, thank you, Brother Tuanzi, but the cat heard from its mother that we should not eat too much human food, especially those heavy in salt. Heavy oil. The deep-fried pork cutlet is delicious, but the salt content in the marinade or sauce is too high, which is not good for your health. Brother Duanzi, if you really want to eat meat, cats know where there are rat nests, let’s squat over there Just wait, okay?"

As an outstanding student in Teacher Ajie's literacy class, the Sanhuamao is no longer the Sanhuamao it used to be.

After nearly three years of systematic study, Sanhua can now not only understand some simple characters, but also understand most of the meaning of human language.

So from a year ago, Sanhuamao has developed the habit of reading newspapers and listening to the radio. The uncle who loves to listen to the radio who does morning exercises in the small park has had an extra "practice friend" by his side since then .

It just so happened that the old man also had a few fluffy cats in his home. Although they were not cats, the dietary precautions for cats and dogs were similar in some respects.

So the Sanhua cat has been paying attention to the diet of the cats at home since then, and the kittens who follow their mother have listened to the pet diet precautions just like it.

Although the kittens were unable to understand those particularly complicated human languages ​​at that time due to their IQ, the eating habits that Sanhua's mother set for them since childhood were successfully preserved.

Knowing that the big white cat was caring about him, Hei Tuanzi suddenly felt very good.

Its raised tail has already passed the top of its head, but on the surface it still tried to maintain its calm and said: "That's not a problem, as long as we go there, the store will naturally provide freshly fried pork chops that have not been marinated. As for the heavy oil, don’t worry, the store’s fire is very well controlled, and the fried food is fresh and crisp without oil, which is a major selling point of their food.”

The big white cat felt very strange when he heard the words. Under Hei Tuanzi's strong invitation, the cat with an empty stomach finally agreed to go with it.

The two cats crossed the road and jumped over the courtyard wall one after the other, and soon came to the most famous food street in the city.

Heituanzi was obviously a frequent visitor here. On the long street, no matter which store it passed by, the boss or the staff would greet it when they saw it.

Seeing this, the big white cat asked in surprise: "Brother Tuanzi, why do they all know you? Did you come here often before?"

Hei Tuanzi turned his head when he heard the words, and said to the big white cat behind him with a smile: "My father is used to eating snacks, and the cat almost grew up behind his father when he was young. The shop owners here like the cat's father very much. , saying that it can attract wealth and treasure, in order to entertain it, every store here has a recipe specially prepared for us."

"Wow, that's amazing, as expected of Uncle Ajie." The big white cat said with admiration.

Greedy can also be worshiped by cats. I don’t know if Dad will feel embarrassed when he finds out.

Just as the big black cat was leading the way and wandering into the sky, they finally arrived at the time-honored fried food shop that Hei Tuanzi had mentioned.

Judging from the decoration and signboard, this store has indeed had a lot of years.

And judging from the flow of people waiting in line at the door to get the food, the taste of the food in this store must not be bad.

The lord cats with the function of attracting wealth are privileged in the territory. They are fluffy and cute, and they never have to queue up wherever they go.

Hei Tuanzi, who was often brought here by his father in the past, jumped up the steps with ease, squatted not far from the sales counter, and meowed at the boss inside.

The proprietress, who was busy brushing the fried food with sauce, raised her head when she heard the sound, first stared at the dumpling carefully, and then suddenly said: "Isn't this Xiao Hei, I almost didn't recognize it. Why did you take so long Didn’t come over? These days, the big black cat helped the great sage come to pick up the pork chops.”

Seeing that the proprietress recognized him, Hei Tuanzi turned around and called Dabai who was waiting not far away, and the two meowed at the proprietress together.

The proprietress, who was already familiar with the cats, immediately understood what the cats meant, and shouted to the back kitchen: "A piece of fresh fried pork chop, not salted but salted."

After shouting, the proprietress lowered her head and said to the black balls: "The old rule is to clean up a piece of pork chop once. You can work whenever you want. Remember not to put it at the door of the store, just throw it away."

Because Lihuamao likes the tonkatsu in this shop, after a few times, both sides have developed a tacit understanding.

Every time the store provides cats with a piece of special tonkatsu, the cats have to clean up the store for harmful organisms.

Not only mice, but also cockroaches and spiders are on the list that needs to be cleaned up.

This contract also applies to the entire food street. As long as the cats are provided with their favorite food, the cihuamao will help the store to gain popularity, and the black cat will be responsible for the store cleaning.

The store operators who have tasted the sweetness here are now posting that they don't want these cats to come to beg for food, because no matter which one comes, they will earn money.

The pork chops specially made for the cats were delivered quickly. The proprietress cut up the pork chops and put them on disposable plates for them.

The tonkatsu just out of the pan was steaming hot, and the aroma that wafted out made the big white cat who was standing by the side couldn't help swallowing several times.

Seeing this, Hei Tuanzi turned over the pork chops quickly with his paws to let them cool down quickly until they were ready to eat, and then pushed the entire dinner plate to the big white cat.

"Meow, why did you give it all to the cat? Don't you want to eat it?" Looking at the food handed over, Dabai asked suspiciously.

"The cat has already eaten at noon, you can eat first." Hei Tuanzi with the tail curled up replied after hearing this.

The big white cat, whose stomach was growling for a long time, finally couldn't hold it anymore, lowered its head, bit the fried pork chop and began to gobble it up.

The weight of each pork chop at the fried food store is about the same, about 150 grams. Even Dabai, who eats a lot, can eat it all at once.

When the big white cat was full, licking its paws to clean itself, Hei Tuanzi pulled the food plate over and ate all the remaining pork chops inside.

The big white cat was instantly at a loss when he saw this, you...you...you couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

On the other hand, Hei Tuanzi, who ate leftovers, said with a very natural attitude: "Dad said, wasting food is not a good cat."

Dabai was speechless, because it was true. When they were still at home, Tianyuan's father was also responsible for cleaning up the leftovers.

"But...but...but..." The stammering big white cat still couldn't understand the words.

So Hei Tuanzi finally said: "Have you been kicked out by Uncle Tian Yuan, have you thought about where you will live in the future?"

Dabai had already thought about this, so it finally stopped stuttering when it answered: "Meow, the cat is talking about finding a suitable place to live at the edge of its territory."

It thought it was a good idea, but after hearing it, Heituanzi shook his head and said, "There is less food and more animals on the border. With your temper, it's not a good place to live."

The big white cat, who had known this for a long time, puffed up his chest and said: "The cat knows, but the cat is not afraid. The cat will not provoke anyone, but if someone provokes the cat, the cat is not afraid to fight."

"It's not just fighting. The situation on the border is much more complicated than in the city. If you really want to go to the cat, don't stop it. How about this? The cat has been helping father patrol the border recently, so you should follow the cat first , go see what it's like over there."

Hei Tuanzi's proposal was reasonable, so the big white cat agreed after thinking about it for a few seconds.

Seeing that it agreed with Hei Tuanzi, he immediately stood up and said, "Okay, let's go."

"Where are you going?" asked the big white cat who didn't know why.

"Of course it's the cat's den. Didn't we just agree that you would follow the cat?"

"Oh."

The big white cat, who didn't know the black cat's thoughts at all, just followed him back to the nest.
