Strange Life of a Cat
Chapter 147 When the Black Cat Comes to Scratch the Door
After drinking a small glass of milk, Zheng Tan also felt much warmer. Shaking his hair, he stretched his waist and looked out of the balcony.
The rain has stopped, replaced by patches of white snow, from the looks of it, the ground will turn white soon.
Seeing that the cup was empty, the man squatted down to pick it up and walked into the house. After walking two steps, he turned around and poked his head out to the black cat crouching in the corner and said, Come in, it's cold outside.
Zheng Tan hesitated for a moment, should he go in and take shelter from the wind? The wind outside seems to be blowing more violently...
Zheng Tan didn't respond for a while.
Seeing this, the man thought that the cat in front of him could not understand, so he stood at the door and waved, pointing to the cup filled with milk, perhaps realizing that his behavior was ineffective, the man walked into the house, but it led to the balcony The door of the room was left open.
Most places in Chuhua City do not have heating, and people are used to using air conditioners and other heating equipment.
The air conditioner in the room was on, Zheng Tan walked to the door and could clearly feel the warm air coming out of the room. Compared to the outside, the room was too warm, Zheng Tan looked at the snowy sky outside, and walked into the room.
Inside the house, the man had already taken off his coat and was standing in front of the microwave, continuing to warm a glass of milk. When the milk was warm and ready to take it to the balcony, I found that the black cat squatting on the balcony had already entered the house, and was looking at the furnishings in the house curiously.
After Zheng Tan roughly scanned the room, he felt that this person should be a cultural person. There was a bookshelf in the room. Most of the bookshelves on the bookshelf were English books, and they covered a wide range of topics, from literature, history, geography, to industry, agriculture and medicine. Such a person should not be a threat.
The man put the warm milk in front of Zheng Tan, this time he didn't stare at Zheng Tan to drink the milk, but walked to the table next to him and sat down, turned on the computer, found the files, and started working.
Zheng Tan watched that person while drinking milk. Although it was not clear from his perspective what was on the desk, Zheng Tan also saw that the person should be a translator, helping others translate some books and articles. As for whether this translation is his main job or a side job, Zheng Tan doesn't know.
There are three rooms in the house, only one is open, which is the room where Zheng Tan stays, the doors of the other two rooms are closed, it is unknown if anyone lives there. There is a drawing board more than one meter long in the room. There are many small notes and sticky notes pasted on the drawing board. Zheng Tan can't understand any of the things written on it.
Is that English cursive? But English cursive script can't be so cursive, can it? Regardless of whether it is English or English cursive, I can't understand it anyway.
The door of the room leading to the balcony was left open, gusts of cold wind came in, and Zheng Tan shivered again.
The man also felt the cold wind blowing in from outside, got up and closed the door, and looked at Zheng Tan when he closed it, as if to make sure if the cat would lose his temper after closing the door.
Zheng Tan didn't lose his temper, but jumped onto the desk.
The desk is next to the window, and in front of the window is an open book, with some bookmarks inside the book, and a lot of notes on the pages, etc. Zheng Tan didn't squat on it, it looks like it is the book that the owner needs to use, it's better to be quiet in other people's house.
Since he couldn't squat directly in front of the window to read, Zheng Tan squatted next to the thick book, tilted his neck and looked out the window. Just waiting to go home when the snow stops, I can't stay outside like this all the time, if I can't go back in time for dinner, Mother Jiao will have to nag again.
There was a scent of wintersweet flowers in the room, and the man's teacup was also made of wintersweet. I don't know if the wintersweet used to make tea was picked from the wintersweet tree in the community.
After translating the planned task, the man moved his arms, twisted his neck, and looked towards Zheng Tan. After seeing the black cat with its neck crooked and unblinking eyes looking out of the window, he smiled and took it out of the drawer. With paper and a pen, I drew a simple picture. From the picture, it can be seen that this person should have learned sketching and is a good painter.
After the painting was finished, the man gave Zheng Tan a look. Zheng Tan was not interested, and after glancing at the painting, he continued to stare out the window. He calculated the time, and in another hour it would be the time for Xiaoyouzi to leave school. He would stay here for half an hour at most, and after half an hour, no matter whether it was still snowing outside or whether it was snowing heavily or not, he had to leave.
Fortunately, half an hour later, the snow was much lighter. Although it was still drifting, it was not as strong as before, so it would be okay.
Zheng Tan moved his neck, stretched his waist, and maintained the posture of crooked neck for too long, a little sore. After jumping off the desk, Zheng Tan stood in front of the door, raised his paw and patted the door, then looked at the man.
That person was paying attention when Zheng Tan jumped off the desk, seeing Zheng Tan like this, he smiled slightly, Want to leave?
As he said that, the man opened the door and let Zheng Tan go out.
Zheng Tan himself was able to open the door, but in front of a person whom he had only met once, Zheng Tan didn't want to act too special.
Moreover, Zheng Tan felt that that person probably liked to smile, but he always felt that there was something uncomfortable behind that person's smile, and he couldn't tell why, it was just intuition.
He opened the door for Zheng Tan, and the man watched Zheng Tan push out from the security net on the balcony, and when he jumped to the ground, he saw footprints on the shallow layer of the ground. After seeing the black cat walking away, he went into the house and closed the door.
Leaving the community, Zheng Tan ran in the direction of Chuhua University. The snow on the ground was a bit cold, and the people around didn't care about the black cat running on the sidewalk, and all their attention was on the thin layer of snow that had accumulated.
When Zheng Tan passed an intersection, he stopped because there were many vehicles, and happened to notice two police cars heading towards the street he came from. But he didn't have time to be curious. After he could cross the road, he hurried to the other side of the road with other pedestrians.
As soon as Zheng Tan arrived at the entrance of the attached primary school, the school bell rang.
Fortunately, no delay.
At this time, the snow began to fall heavily again.
During this period of time, no matter whether it was Xiaoyouzi or Jiao Yuan, they were not very emotional because of Jiao's father going abroad, and they were not very excited about the snow. The other children who came out of the attached primary school were very excited to see the thin layer of white on the ground. However, there were too many people and the snow was so thin that they couldn't see the white when they stepped on it. Snow water mixed with mud and sand.
It snowed for two days, and when the weather cleared, the snow soon began to melt. The weather forecast says that there will be no rain or snow in the next few days, and the temperature will gradually rise. Zheng Tan waited until the snow had almost melted and ran out for a walk again.
Still walking along the road to Jiaoyuan School, Zheng Tan is now learning about the road over there. Just like the snowy day, from Jiaoyuan School, to Zhong Yan's community, then to the construction site to have a look, and then go a little farther to get familiar with that area.
Before I knew it, I came to the elevator room complex again.
When Zheng Tan walked into the community, a few aunts happened to come back with daily necessities bought from the supermarket, and they heard them say:
Hey, is the case settled?
It doesn't seem to be. I haven't heard of any progress.
Hey, didn't you say you committed suicide by throwing yourself into a lake? Isn't that suicide?
How can it be, it's such a cold day, and I heard from a nephew who works nearby that the man was found naked, even if he wanted to commit suicide, he wouldn't do it this way.
At this time, another aunt came in from outside the community. She should know these people. When she saw the people here, she quickly walked up to her and asked, What are you talking about?
What else, just the day when it snowed, what happened on the other side of the lake.
...
Listening to their conversation, Zheng Tan remembered the two police cars he saw at the crossroads when he was driving back on the snowy day, which should be related to what these aunts said. However, Zheng Tan felt that those things were too far away from him, and it had nothing to do with them. This kind of cases happen every day in this world, so why worry so much, besides, he doesn't gossip around like those aunts who have nothing to do. Have fun wasting time.
Zheng Tan decided to go to the house of the person who drank wintersweet tea first, maybe he could mix another cup of warm milk for drinking.
When he came downstairs from last time, he raised his head and looked up, Zheng Tan could see that the light was on in that person's house, at this time that person should be busy with work, right?
Jumping on top of the parking space, Zheng Tan squeezed into the balcony, and saw a different place on the balcony from the first time he came a few days ago.
The paper box was still there, but in the corner, there was a fairly clean cushion, and there was a paper cup next to the cushion, which contained cold milk.
The upholstery and milk were not there when I came last time. Zheng Tan sniffed the milk in the paper cup. There was no strange smell. The weather is not likely to cause strange smell. a few days.
Looking at this decoration, people who don't know it will definitely think that the owner of this house has a pet.
Zheng Tan was not in a hurry to scratch the door, he first sniffed around the balcony to see if there were any other animal smells, and made mental preparations in advance. If there is, consider whether to scratch the door according to the situation, especially if the other party has a dog, it is better not to make a fuss.
Many people think that a dog's nose is much more sensitive than a cat's nose. Why are there so many police dogs and anti-drug dogs but no police cats and anti-drug cats? Others believe that a cat's nose is comparable to a dog's nose, but due to the cat's personality, it is not easy to train and is not willing to be manipulated by others. Many functions in its body can only be used when it is beneficial to itself. Give full play to it, and ignore many instructions from people. Because of this, people can only use the smell function of dogs more often and do nothing to cats.
Zheng Tan doesn't know whether a dog's nose is sensitive or a cat's nose is sensitive, at least he thinks his sense of smell is quite good now, at least much more sensitive than when he was a human.
After sniffing carefully, Zheng Tan was sure that, just like last time, except for the owner's smell, there was only the smell left by him when he was squatting in the corner and rubbing paper boxes boredly last time. He doesn't even smell like a girl, that person is really homely and lonely.
Zheng Tan walked to the door of the room, raised his paw and patted the door, thinking whether to scratch it twice, when he heard footsteps approaching, and the next moment, the door opened.
Seeing the black cat at the door, the man had a smile in his emotionless eyes, Here we come.
