The days of being a cat in Japan

At 11 p.m., the last light in the Fujimoto house went out.

As the room gradually became quiet, Xu Jie, who was resting peacefully in the cat's nest, suddenly opened his eyes.

I saw it listened for a while with its ears up, and after confirming that the other little chubby in the room had fallen asleep, it walked out of the cat's nest lightly.

When I came to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out, I saw the familiar big black cat squatting on the wall.

Xu Jie, whose eyes were crescent-shaped with a smile, trotted all the way to the living room, and climbed out along the cat shelf.

The golden retriever resting in the kennel in the living room heard the sound and looked up. After realizing that it was Xu Jie who had gone out, he continued to lie down and sleep without making a sound.

After watching for half the night, he finally got Mo, the cat in his heart, and jumped into the yard to greet Xu Jie.

The two cats jumped together, rubbing against each other, and the small purring sound in their throats showed the sticky mood of the two cats.

While rubbing against each other, Xu Jie told Mo that he was unfortunately pulled into a young man by Xiao Jiantai.

Mo Wenyan licked the corner of Xu Jie's lips, and quickly agreed to Empress Dowager Jian's request to take them to the countryside together.

Colleagues, it is still thinking about the things stored in the nest, those things are not easy to preserve, they need to be eaten in advance tomorrow, and those things can be preserved, where they need to be hidden again so that they are not easy to be found.

These things have to be arranged properly, lest there will be nothing left in the nest when it comes back from going out this time.

You must know that there is nothing that dares to venture into the den with the owner, but it is not good to say that the owner will not return to the den for a long time.

The two cats that had been negotiated played wildly outside for a long time in the middle of the night before Xu Jie was sent home by the reluctant Mo.

In view of Xu Jie's continuous nights out in the past few days, Xiaojian, who was at home during the summer vacation, showed special attention to it.

This kind of attention is to take it with you wherever you go, so Xu Jie didn't find a gap to get out this day, guarding the table and chubby, watching him write his homework for the day.

Having already arranged the inside of the nest, Mo was still squatting on the outer wall waiting for Xu Jie to come out, but after waiting and waiting but unable to see the furry figure he wanted, the impatient Mo simply came to the door coming.

Seeing the big black cat crawling into his house along the cat shelf, Jiantai pursed his lips indiscriminately, expressing his displeasure.

Even the hand holding the pencil increased some strength, so that the tip of the pencil that was just sharpened was almost broken on the notebook.

Mo's perception of emotions is very keen, so as soon as he entered, he immediately felt the low pressure from Jiantai.

But as a cat, it doesn't care whether the human cub is happy or not, as long as it can see its little raccoon all the time.

Fortunately, although Jiantai is young, he has a very good personality, so he quickly adjusted his emotions and persuaded himself to accept the "good friend" of their great sage.

That night, Mo rarely took the initiative to stay at Fujimoto's house. When resting at night, Mrs. Xiao Jian wore children's pajamas with Garfield's picture printed on it, laying on the outside of the cat's nest, watching the two kissing and licking. .Clutching his chest, he silently climbed onto his crib.

Xu Jie woke them up early the next morning, and when they came out of the cat's litter while sleepy and panting, Mrs. Fujimoto had already prepared breakfast.

Not only that, this crafty lady was afraid that the children would be bored in the car or feel hungry, so she specially prepared bento boxes for them.

Inside the big lunch box are the sour plum rice balls and fried chicken wings that Junko and Kenta like very much.

The three people who had packed their things at [-]:[-] in the morning climbed into their private car with two cats. Mr. Fujimoto sat in the front as the driver, Junko sat in the co-pilot seat, and Jiantai, Xu Jie and Mo Was placed in the back seat.

Before getting into the car, Heiyu stood on Ah Zhong's head, flapped his wings and said to Junko, "Master, please rest assured, I will take good care of everything in the house."

Of course Junko couldn't understand what Hei Yu was saying, but every time she was about to leave home, the black crow she raised would always fly out and yell at her like this, presumably it was saying goodbye to it .

Compared with the atmosphere here, Xiao Jiantai's side seemed much more discordant, because he was jumping up and down trying to get the tablet computer that Mrs. Fujimoto took out.

After jumping twice and failing to get the tablet from his mother's hand, Xiao Jiantai turned to Mrs. Fujimoto with a begging look and said, "Mom, just let me take the tablet, I promise it will be with grandma." You must study hard and finish all your homework during the summer vacation, and you will never delay anything."

Facing the son's begging, Mrs. Fujimoto smiled and patted his chubby head and said, "No."

Mrs. Jian was very disappointed when she heard the words: "Why? My sister can take her mobile phone back with her, why can't I bring my tablet?"

Mrs. Fujimoto pinched her son's fleshy little face and said: "Because Junko has finished all her summer homework ahead of time and you haven't, so she can bring her mobile phone but you can't. I also want to tell you something , because she is the only one living at grandma's house, so there is no connection to the network cable. So you don't need to bring your tablet with Jiantai, and Junko, you should also pay attention to the mobile phone fee this week. If it exceeds too much, I will But it will be deducted from your pocket money."

Xu Jie, who was sitting in the back seat and was opening the window, clearly saw that after Mrs. Fujimoto said the words "not connected to the Internet", the figures of Kenta and Junko seemed to have froze a lot.

Ignoring the pair of children who suddenly became much quieter, Mrs. Fujimoto repeatedly told her husband to be careful when driving, then stood at the door of the house and watched them leave.

Mr. Fujimoto’s hometown is indeed not far from the urban area. He drove all the way south, passed through the villa area that was once regarded as a small nest by Mo, and drove all the way to the mountain, passing by the hot spring tourist area, and he arrived in 10 minutes.

It's really close to the city, and it doesn't take 40 minutes to drive. Such a short distance doesn't even count as the countryside, it's just a suburb at best.

The old house of the Fujimoto family was built next to the road, and Grandma Fujimoto, who knew in advance that they were coming, waited outside with a straw hat early on.

Smilingly, she picked up her sons, grandchildren and grandchildren from the car one by one. When she saw Xu Jie and Mo who got out of the car with their tails at the end, Grandma Fujimoto's eyes were bent and she said, "The great sage and the big black The ones who came here also came here with Mrs. Jian to escape the summer heat. You must have fun these few days, it is much cooler here than in the city."

Carrying the grandchildren's schoolbags, Grandma Fujimoto took them all into the house. Who knew that Mr. Fujimoto looked at his watch and took all the bento in the car and gifts for Grandma Fujimoto into the yard, but said: "Mother, I I won’t stay with you any longer. There is still an operation waiting for me at the hospital. I made an appointment a few days ago for 10 o’clock this morning. It’s past eight o’clock. I’m going to go back and get ready, Junko He Jiantai, please take care of me these few days."

Since it was a matter of work, of course Grandma Fujimoto would not say much. While promising to take good care of the two grandchildren, she urged her son to go back early and be careful on the road.

After seeing off her son, Grandma Fujimoto brought the remaining four little ones into the house.

The old house of the Fujimoto family seems to have a history of at least 70 to [-] years, and it is still built with brick and mud mixed with wooden structures.

The house has two floors, and it doesn't look too big from the outside, but the yard surrounded by their house is very spacious.

The entire compound is divided into left and right sides by the gravel road in the middle. On the left is a tall grape trellis, covering an area of ​​more than a dozen tatami mats.

Under the grape trellis is a very clean and soft ground, and there are bunches of blue grapes the size of peanuts hanging on the trellis.

On the other side of the gravel road is a small vegetable garden. Although the area is small, there are not many varieties of vegetables grown in it.

Such an environment is obviously more pleasing to the cats. Ever since Xu Jie and Mo stepped into this compound, their sniffing gestures have not stopped.

Because it is on the mountain, the air here is very refreshing, which makes Xu Jie, who is used to smelling all kinds of exhaust gas in the city, very happy, but it would be better if there are not so many dog ​​smells in the air.

From the moment he entered the mountain, Xu Jie, who was near the window, could smell all kinds of dogs from the wind blowing in from the window.

In addition to the barking of dogs that it hears from time to time, it seems that the people on this mountain have many dogs.

Xu Jie, who was sniffing around in the yard, came all the way to the grape trellis. When he smelled the roots of the grape vines, he was blown away by a rush of breath.

The one who left the smell here is a very strong male cat. I can feel that this one is not leaving the smell here for territorial gain. It just came here as a convenience, and then walked away. , the evidence is that the smell stays here only once and has never been replenished.

But even so, the strong cat that inadvertently left the smell here still made Xu Jie blow up. If it is not certain that this is Jiantai's grandma's house, and Mo is also by its side, Xu Jie has already followed Instinctively ran away.

Finding that Xu Jie's expression was very wrong, Mo walked towards it with a puzzled face.

But before he got close, Mo's expression changed. He smelled the smell left by the cat in the air, squinted his eyes and said, "Is it them? Why did they come here?"

Xu Jie, who was walking back and forth under the vines with his tail flicking, stopped and asked, "Mo, do you know the cat that left its scent here?"

Mo Wenyan nodded, and said happily and worriedly, "Not only do we know each other, but we are also very familiar."

Xu Jie asked curiously after hearing the words: "Who is it? It looks so powerful."

Mo Wenyan didn't answer, but ran to the gate of the old courtyard of Fujimoto's house, where he scratched a few marks with his claws, and then returned to Xu Jie's side and said, "I don't know if they will come over or not." Find me, and I'll introduce you to each other if you meet."
