Not too many out of four

The glass of the front door of the store was shattered for a few days, and the place where no one dared to look in and trespassers became a place where thieves and thieves would patronize.

Without the guardianship of the King of Sheep, this store is just an ordinary place where the owner leaves in a hurry. There is no need to worry about being retaliated by supernatural beings and causing trouble, and it is a place where people can come and go at will.

However, there is nothing valuable in the store itself, and the most expensive cat food can’t be sold at a price in Yokohama, and it just started to become depressed in just a few days.

It’s just that this depression is even more desolate. The clean and tidy place is full of glass shards and things that were randomly overturned and thrown on the ground. In order to search for any special leftover property, they even took apart cat food and cat litter. It was poured out all over the place, making a mess and dirty everywhere.

Li Jia quietly stayed in the cat's litter for a few days, only in the dead of night when most people would not dare to come out, she would quietly jump down to pick up some unpacked cat food or freeze-dried cat food.

The cat's paws can't open canned food, and all she can eat is simple dry food. She relies on the taps in the store that don't stop running water to replenish her water.

She doesn't want to get a wound infection or a fever because of the injury. If it gets worse, there is no one to take care of her now.

A cat living alone needs to take good care of itself. She should take medicine and cat food. Anyway, she doesn’t have the ability to pick and choose now. It’s not easy to stay in the store until the wound on her hind leg is completely healed. the best choice.

The moonlight shone in through the broken door, and Li Jia, who was biting the cat food with her head down, looked in the direction of the door with trembling ears.

She heard footsteps approaching gradually, with some hasty leather shoes landing.

The drooping tail swept the ground quietly. Although she didn't know why someone would come over tonight, Li Jia didn't intend to deal with them. She turned around and walked back to the cat nest at the bottom of the cat climbing frame, lying on her stomach with her head turned to face the inner wall Prevent visitors from seeing the faintly lit cat's eyes in the dark.

Jumping up and down with her injured leg was very difficult, she didn't want to have another tossing process today, she planned to squat patiently and wait for the other party to leave before going out to eat.

"...How did this place become like this?" A familiar young voice sounded from the door of the store.

The cat's half-drooped ears couldn't help but slowly stand up. The cat, which was hiding in the cat's nest and almost merged with the darkness, moved slightly. She wanted to turn her head to look at Zhongya Zhongyuan.

But I was worried that the other party didn't want to see her here.

After all, the person who made the deal with the veterinarian was Nakahara Chuya, and it was somewhat inappropriate for her to stay here to eat and drink. Think here.

Li Jia buried her head silently, preparing to hide her existence and aura with great concentration, at least don't go out at this time to upset Zhongye Zhongye.

Knowing that Zhongyuan Zhong didn't die in the explosion and was not affected by Huangba's attack, she was already very happy.

At least good people should not be injured and die in vain.

……

On the day when Huang Ba's vomiting was completely solved, Zhong Yuan returned to Leibo Street and began to look for the little black cat.

Li Jia ran away from the center of Leibo Street, and he should not have run too far away. Following this clue, Zhongyuan Zhong also inquired all the way to the past, knowing that after he was taken away by the port mafia, the place where the explosion occurred has always been There was the sound of a cat meowing, and it lingered for a long time until the sound stopped at night.

At that time, he was staying at the headquarters of the port mafia. He didn't know that Li Jia ran back because he was worried about him.

Zhong Yuanzhong was also very annoyed, and he searched around Leibo Street for several days but couldn't find his little coal balls.

It's not that he didn't think that Li Jia might run to the veterinarian's shop, but it was far away from Leibo Street, and Li Jia didn't know the way, and it was impossible to go that far without walking down by himself.

Holding Li Jia may still be living in a corner of Leibo Street, Zhong Yuan Zhong also searched inside and out several times, whenever he saw a cat, he would rush over, and left disappointed when he found that the black cat was not his own.

The obedient and quiet cat that accompanied him for half a year disappeared in his life. He was not used to it. He didn’t know whether Li Jia was avoiding him on purpose or if something really happened. He searched all the places that Li Jia might go and found no cat. shadow.

When he was about to give up looking for cats, the sheep's children said that they had been to the pet hospital he often went to, and it was only then that Nakahara Zhongya remembered the place that Li Jia might go to, which he had denied at the beginning.

Because the body and mind and attention were drawn to the other side, Zhong Yuanzhong was completely unprepared for his companion, and the waist and abdomen were stabbed heavily by the butterfly knife into the wound with the poison of rat poison seeping into the blood.

He has been tossing until now to manage the wound. The medical team of the port mafia wanted him to have a good rest, but Zhong Yuanzhong couldn't wait for the wound to heal. He couldn't wait to come to the store to see if Li Jia was back here.

There is food and drink in the store, if Li Jian can find a place, there is no need to worry about being hungry.

It's just that Zhong Yuanzhong didn't expect that he hadn't come for a while, and the pet hospital would turn into such a mess.

There were glass shards and spilled cat food and cat litter everywhere on the ground, and the cabinets, tables and chairs were overturned. Just looking at it, I felt that it was chaotic and it was impossible for animals to live here.

"Li Jia, are you here?" Zhongyuan Zhong also lifted up the fallen cabinet, bent down to look at the corner of the gap, and made sure that no cat was stuck in it, and he was slightly relieved: "Li Jia, hear My voice will answer me."

The pet hospital is in such a mess that it is not something that can be done tonight. Zhongyuan Zhong also thought about setting up the cabinets, tables and chairs first, and re-locking the door, so that thieves and thieves can no longer come in and patronize at will.

"Li Jia, you are..."

Before he finished speaking, the fat mouse quickly jumped out from behind the fallen cabinet, and Zhong Yuanzhong hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it.

"Rats are starting to be raised here," he smacked his tongue and frowned, "Probably no rats would dare to live under the nose of the cat, right?"

...No, that's not necessarily the case.

The mouse that ran out just now looked about the size of a little black cat. Li Jia might not dare to face it head-on when she met the mouse. Even the freeze-dried cans of cat food she loved were given to the mouse, and she left pitifully. A pet hospital with food and drink to wander outside.

Thinking of this, Zhong Yuanzhong couldn't help but change his face a few times, he shook his head vigorously: "No, no, it shouldn't be so miserable."

When he said this, his tone was a little trance, with an attitude that he was not sure about.

The weakness and timidity of the black cat is obvious to all. It doesn't seem strange if Li Jia's body is really a teenage girl who would be scared when she sees a mouse.

The effect of the wound anesthetic on the waist and abdomen gradually faded, and there were bursts of pain one after another, but Zhong Yuanzhong didn't care, but silently began to speed up his hands and feet, preparing to tidy up here before leaving.

If Li Jia came here after him, he would have a place to live for a long time.

Because Zhong Yuanzhong didn't care about the movement of the wound, the wound that had been sutured opened and leaked blood, which stained the bandages and clothes, he couldn't help taking a step back and leaning against the cabinet.

"Damn it, the wound is open."

He cursed in a low voice, he didn't expect that just moving the cabinets, tidying up the messy furnishings in the store and the scattered cat food cans, toys and cat litter would open the wounds.

"...Mi?" The tallest cat climbing frame in the store, with its layers almost reaching the ceiling, was fixed to the ground by the veterinarian, and as the only display that had not been overturned, there was a slight sound.

Zhong Yuanzhong also pressed his stomach, and opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

He watched helplessly as a dirty, messy black cat emerged from the cat nest on the bottom floor of the cat climbing frame that he had passed several times. She limped over, raised her beautiful transparent blue eyes and looked at he.

I originally thought it was the shadow formed by the cat's nest in a dark environment, but I didn't expect the moonlight to shine naturally after the black cat came out, leaving a large area of ​​warm shimmer. It was the black cat hiding inside that made the inside of the cat's nest look dark.

Li Jia's footsteps stopped one meter away from Central Plains. She raised her head to look at the boy quietly but a little nervously, because her hind leg was injured and she couldn't even look up at him in a squatting position.

"Mi, mi, huh." She called softly, not daring to approach Zhongye in the Central Plains any further.

She never thought that Zhongyuan Zhong would come to her again. Although she didn't know whether it was to ask her about concealing her identity or to worry about her whereabouts, but out of guilt and shame, when Zhongyuan Zhong also called her name, Li Jia dared not come out to face him.

The fear of being blamed and blamed was overcome by the fear of Chuya Nakahara.

Smelling the smell of fresh blood, and hearing that Zhong Yuanzhong was also injured, she still couldn't help running out to see him.

Was Zhong also seriously injured?Staying by Zhongye's side for half a year, she has never seen him get hurt, and Li Jia doesn't even know who else can hurt him.

The dirty little black cat seemed to have lost a lot of weight during this period of time, and even its hair became rougher due to lack of care. She timidly stopped and did not dare to approach without authorization, and walked over with a limp Seeing Zhong Yuanzhong's actions, he was shocked and blamed himself.

"... Li Jia, come here." Zhong Yuanzhong also slid down slowly against the cabinet, the pain made sweat wet his temples and slid down the side of his face, but his frowning brows loosened a little bit, and he curled the corners of his mouth Said: "Don't be afraid, come to me."

He didn't dare to disturb the timid black cat again, so he could only coax her to come closer.

At the moment when his identity was revealed, Li Jia ran away with his tail flicking without even explaining. He was restrained by Dazai Osamu and Hirotsu Yanagi and could not chase the cat, so he could only watch Li Jia run away.

He had been in the store for so long just now, calling her name all the time, arranging the furnishings in the store, and she didn't even think about coming out.

She didn't worry and ran out until his wound opened and couldn't bear the pain.

Thinking about it carefully, Li Jia turned to look for him after Huangba vomited and exploded, maybe it was because she was worried about him.

The little black cat he raises is very sensitive and timid, and the slightest disturbance may cause her to run away and hide in a place where he can't find it, and he must be careful and careful to put on a harmless gesture of weakness to make her run back on her own initiative.

"Mi? Mimi, Miwu." The big fluffy and messy tail swept across the ground, and Li Jia worriedly approached Zhongya Zhongyuan, her front paws raised and pressed on his calf.

She couldn't see the blood-stained clothes on Zhongya's abdomen, but she could smell blood and injuries with her keen sense of smell.

The position where Zhong Ye was injured seems to be very bad. I don't know if he injured any important internal organs.

"It's okay, it's just that the wound is a little cracked." Zhongyuan Zhong also carefully picked up the black cat and hugged it in front of him. He touched her hair that had become rough and dry with a complicated expression. The long black hair was tangled together and formed a ball, almost Fingers and cat combs cannot be combed, and the hairballs can only be cut off with scissors.

Li Jia walked over with a limp, carefully avoiding using her injured leg, it was obvious that she was walking slowly because of the injury.

"Is the left leg injured?" Zhong Yuanzhong didn't dare to use force and didn't know what kind of strength was appropriate to touch the cat's injured leg, so he had to use gravity to protect the cat's body, so that it would no longer be affected by the danger of the outside world.

Li Jia shook her ears, seeing that Zhong Yuanzhong was not angry and wanted to ask her about her background, she temporarily settled down and nestled in his arms, pretending that the revealing of her identity never happened.

She responded in a low voice: "Mmm."

It was indeed the left leg that was affected by the explosion. Due to the inconvenient handling and fixation of the injured leg by the cat's claws, the position of the fracture could not be aligned and healed. Now she is still in the state of a lame cat.

The floor of the store is full of obstacles of glass and overturned cabinets. She usually avoids these to eat the cat food and water behind when she walks. Her hind leg is injured and she can't even use her strength to drag things over. It really caused her a lot of trouble.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to pick you up."

Zhong Yuanzhong also took out the cat brush that usually grooms Li Jia from his pocket, and gently and slowly combed the unknotted hair, and gradually restored the messy little black cat to a domestic and beloved kitten.

"Li Jia, let's go to the port mafia and there is a doctor who can treat you." As for whether the doctor who usually treats people can treat cats, Zhong Yuanzhong also thinks that humans are animals, and thinking of a way should be able to treat Li Jia's injured parts.

His voice slowed down, with the intention of lulling the cat to sleep, and his grooming movements were very skillful and gentle. Li Jia's exhausted spirit, which had been tense for many days, relaxed a little bit, and he almost fell asleep on Zhongyuan Zhongye's hands when he heard him say this. some words.

"Mi?" She hesitated and shook her ears, and turned to Zhong Yuanzhong, as if she couldn't believe what she heard: "Miwu?"

Zhong Yuan, who hated the port mafia so much before, suddenly said that he would take her there for treatment...

"I'm leaving the sheep," Zhong Yuan said with a calm expression, showing no sadness or strangeness of being betrayed, pretending to be a member of the port mafia, and his position is probably an ordinary middle-level person.

The transparent and bright blue in the cat's eyes is blocked by the black pupils, and it looks very cute against the black kitten's face. Li Jia leaned her head forward to lick the sweat that was about to flow into his eyes, weak Called: "Mimi?"

She didn't understand why Nakahara Chuya suddenly left the sheep.

Chuya doesn't get along particularly harmoniously with the sheep's children, but it's not as hostile as the port mafia.

Now that Zhongyuan Zhong also left Yang and joined the port mafia instead, something special must have happened.

"It's okay," Zhong Yuanzhong comforted the cat as he stroked the cat's hair with his palm, "The children of the sheep are not dead, we just disbanded the organization." There will be no more sheep in Leibo Street.

Because of the disbandment of the organization, he, an incompetent leader, naturally no longer bears the heavy title of leader.

Before he knew what a leader was, he ignorantly followed the children's will to take over the leader's position, thinking that as long as he protected them well, he would be able to do everything a leader should do.

He was taking it for granted.

The leader is not that simple, he can support and afford the existence of the organization casually.

Li Jia opened her mouth to say something to comfort Zhongyuan Zhongye, but the cat couldn't speak human words at all, and it was impossible to persuade Zhongyuan Zhongye's thoughts.

She lowered her head against Nakahara Chuya's shoulder in frustration, allowing him to stroke her hair, protecting the cat's small body in her arms to avoid her injured leg.

"Didn't you say you don't have to worry about me?" The little black cat's frustration was speechless, and it couldn't be easily ignored.

Zhongyuan Zhong also laughed and turned his head to kiss the cat's soft ears, and said in a low voice: "I voluntarily joined the port mafia, and there are answers I want to know, so don't feel sorry for me."

Regarding the origin of Huangbatu's life experience and the true meaning of the leader, these are the answers he can find in the port mafia.

Even if he loses the anchor of sheep, he still has Li Jia by his side. As long as the black cat is still by his side, he will not lose the anchor of humanity easily.
