Strange Life of a Cat
Chapter 59 Heading to South City
night.
East family area of Chuhua University.
Father Jiao was standing at the door of the house, rubbing his face with his hands, hiding the tired expression on his face, and took out the key to open the door.
The sofa in the living room was still empty, and there was no longer a black cat lying there watching TV contentedly.
After hearing the sound of the door opening, the doors of the two children's rooms opened almost at the same time, but after seeing Papa Jiao's expression, his eyes dimmed again.
It's been a week and still no news.
The several dens that illegally sold cats and dogs that were destroyed in Chuhua City did not have the news they wanted.
Snapped!
The doors of the two children's rooms were closed again, and they went to do their homework.
When they first found out that their cat was lost, the eyes of both children were swollen from crying. Even after a week, their eyes were still red and their mood was always depressed.
Still no news? Mother Jiao asked in a low voice. She was also in a bad mood.
Papa Jiao shook his head and remained silent. After a while, he said: Wei Leng and He Ju are helping to look for it. Zhao Dong and the others also ask their friends to pay attention to this news. It should come soon.
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in the bedroom rang.
Papa Jiao hurriedly got up to pick it up, while the two children in the room put their ears to the door, hoping to hear some good news.
However, Papa Jiao didn't say much after answering the phone, and the only two sentences were in a low voice, as if he was very happy.
After hanging up the phone, Papa Jiao took out a cigarette and stood on the balcony to smoke.
Papa Jiao doesn't smoke on weekdays, unless he is in a bad mood.
It was Wei Leng who called just now, and he told Papa Jiao about the results of his investigation. There was no news about his black charcoal, but the person who sold the anesthesia gun found it, and dug deeper according to this line, but nothing happened. The people who bought the guns were not local, and they were more cunning, so we couldn't find out too much.
Although there is not much useful news, Dad Jiao has always been suspicious, and he thought about the situation when he met Professor Ren in the courtyard recently. Professor Ren seems to be a little proud recently...
While people in Chuhua City were busy looking for news about Zheng Tan, Zheng Tan was sleeping in the attic of a villa.
That day he followed Big Pyrenees and the girl to a nearby community. The community was relatively high-grade, with elevator rooms and villas, and Pyrenees' house was one of the villas.
Since the girl wasn't riding fast, she seemed to be just relaxing, stopping and stopping occasionally to buy something, so Zheng Tan was able to hide and chase after her, but she was too tired and had a hard time. It was really bad that day.
The girl and the big white bear entered through the main entrance of the community, but Zheng Tan got in through the fence next to it, followed the direction of the person and the dog to a villa, and found a pretty good place in the villa - the attic .
For a cat, it is not difficult to climb the attic of this American villa.
There are some debris piled up in the attic of this family, and no one usually comes up. Many places are covered with cobwebs and dust. It turned out that there were still a few mice. After Zheng Tan arrived, they probably packed up and ran away. Anyway, Zheng Tan never saw them again.
After finally finding a temporary place to stay, Zheng Tan's tense nerves eased a bit. I rummaged through the things in the attic, and found a pillow from one of the cardboard boxes. Regardless of whether it smelled musty or not, I lay on it and began to rest.
Zheng Tan was woken up by the crackling rain.
The rainwater hit the windows of the attic, making a crackling sound, which was especially clear in the quiet environment of the attic.
It was already dark outside, and another day passed.
Here, Zheng Tan can see the street lights of this residential area through the window of the attic, as well as the lights of the surrounding residents' homes.
It should be time for dinner, Zheng sighed and moved his nose, only the musty smell in the attic.
Zheng Tan knew where this area was and how far it was from Chuhua City.
A central city, a southern coastal area.
Just because it is clear, it is at a loss.
Xiahe City is actually not too far away from Nancheng where I have lived for 20 years.
Zheng Tan looked at the raindrops on the window, not knowing what he was thinking, to be precise, he was in a daze.
However, the daze did not last long.
Alas, I'm hungry.
Zheng Tan thought, wait until later, when everyone in this family is asleep, let's go down to find something to eat.
Zheng Tan is not going to expose himself either. The family raises dogs, so they may not eat dog meat, but who knows if they will eat cats? What kind of personality is this family?
He doesn't want to take any chances.
Stretching, Zheng Tan stretched his hands and feet, thinking about what to do in the future.
It would be great if it was a human, but unfortunately it is just a cat now.
Waiting is boring, Zheng Tan rummaged through the sundries, and found a small ball, like a children's toy. It looks like it hasn't been moved in a long time.
Lying on the pillow, Zheng Tan played with the ball with four paws, gently pushed the ball backwards with his palms, and then touched it back with his feet.
Seeing the ball jumping in the air, Zheng Tan felt like those animals in the circus.
Speaking of which, if I'm not around, the Jiao family doesn't know what will happen, and Xiao Guo's advertisement...
Zheng Tan was just thinking about things while playing with the ball.
From the attic came the family's talking and laughing, as well as the sound of advertisements on the TV and a familiar dialect that I hadn't heard for a long time.
Finally, at midnight, the rain outside seemed to have stopped.
There is a window on a slant in the attic that can be pushed. It is estimated that the family does not know that a window in their attic is broken. It is not easy to climb in, and there is no fear of a thief entering the attic from here.
Coming out of the inclined window, Zheng Tan looked around. The surrounding area was damp due to the recent rain.
Looking at the water stains on the soles of his feet, Zheng Tan found a place to go down from the roof and came to the kitchen.
Originally, Zheng Tan saw that there was a doorway for pets to enter and exit, and planned to enter through this, but after trying it, it was locked, probably because the big white bear was too big, it was fine when it was a child, but it can’t be used now, so The host directly locked the door.
Can't go in through the door, Zheng Tan can only climb the window, but fortunately there is a window above, Zheng Tan climbed in through that window. Before turning over, Zheng Tan specially stepped on the doormat placed by the back door a few times to dry off the water stains on his feet, so as not to step on a few cat paw prints in the kitchen.
There is a large refrigerator in the kitchen. Zheng Tan opened the refrigerator and looked. There are not many dishes. Looking at the family conditions of this family, even if the dinner is not finished, it will be thrown away directly. But the good thing is that there are still some ready-made meatballs bought in the supermarket. Zheng Tan ate a few of them.
Most of the others are children's food. There are some biscuits, fruit cakes, etc. Zheng Tan ate some of them. Zheng Tan took some of the snacks with individual small packages and took them to the attic later.
After eating something, Zheng Tan felt much better. Although it was cold, it was better than starving.
Gently closing the refrigerator door, Zheng Tan quietly left with some snacks in his arms. He is now more and more proficient at walking on two legs.
It was a bit troublesome to turn over the window, and it was not easy to turn over with two legs, so Zheng Tan took out these small snacks one by one.
Before leaving the kitchen, Zheng Tan looked at the crack under the closed kitchen door, from which he could see some white dog fur - the big white bear lying on the other side of the door. Zheng Tan believed that it should have found itself, but he didn't make a sound.
What a fine dog.
He can bark his teeth at those who beat dogs, and even cover himself. Pretty smart.
After looking for food, he moved a few bags of snacks to the attic, and Zheng Tan lay down on the musty-smelling pillow again. It never occurred to him that he would steal at night like a mouse.
It's down to this...
He slept well at night, maybe it was because of the medicine, Zheng Tan has been feeling sleepy recently, sometimes he slept very deeply, even if someone was having sex next to him, he probably wouldn't be able to hear it.
The next day, Zheng Tan heard some news.
For Zheng Tan, this news is indeed good.
First, I heard that there was a homicide on the street where cat and dog meat was sold.
What happened was Uncle Gan, a celebrity on the street. The cause of death was a rabies attack.
It is very strange why this experienced person did not get vaccinated, or why he did not get vaccinated in time. It stands to reason that he should know how to defend himself better than others, but he still didn't escape in the end.
Zheng Tan talked about many possibilities when listening to the people around here. It may be that there is a problem with the vaccine, it may be that the veteran is negligent, or it may be that he has been infected long ago but has not been vaccinated, or he ate dog meat. The sanitation of this street is not very good. They cut corners when cooking and failed to completely kill the rabies virus. These are all possible.
In short, there are different opinions, but the fact is that the famous Uncle Gan died of rabies.
In addition to this famous Uncle Gan, there is another person who is also unlucky, and this person is the young man who arrested Zheng Tan.
I heard that when Uncle Gan was ill, Xiaonian went to find him, but Uncle Gan who was not sober swung a wine bottle, and he is still lying in the hospital now.
Hearing these two pieces of news, Zheng Tan was very happy. Although he didn't know that Uncle Gan, but listening to the discussion of the people around him, this old guy had countless lives in his hands, and he also taught a large number of dogs to beat cats. Some people, even poachers, deserved their death.
Moreover, because of Uncle Gan's incident, everyone in the street is now in danger. Even if the restaurant didn't kill the dog, they all went to the hospital to get vaccinated. After all, many animals may carry the rabies virus.
As for that young man, Zheng Tan thought to himself: Even if you can come out of the hospital alive, don't let me catch you, or you will be killed!
Qiu Zheng Tan remembered this.
In addition to these two news, Zheng Tan also heard that the family said that they would go out to play this weekend. When the time comes, there will be no one at home, so it will be convenient for Zheng Tan to act.
Zheng Tan wanted to use the family's phone number to talk to Father Jiao. Even if you can't clearly say what you want to express, at least let them know that they are still alive.
Zheng Tan thought very well, so he called Jiao's family, and then Dad Jiao called to contact the people in this family, and finally came to pick him up. Anyway, the family will be back on Sunday night, and they can't wait for a few days. It's better than wandering outside all the time.
Two days later, on Friday afternoon, the family really packed up their things, and when the children came back from school, they drove an off-road vehicle and took their family and dog out.
As soon as Zheng Tan waited for them to leave, he couldn't wait to open the window and enter the house, looking for the phone.
There is a landline next to the sofa in the living room. Zheng Tan jumps on it, bends his arm to pick up the receiver, and then presses the number keys one by one with the cat’s paw. Zheng Tan remembers the phone number of Jiao’s house. There are three numbers posted on it, the landline at home, Jiao's father and Jiao's mother. So Zheng Tan memorized these three numbers by heart. But until now, Zheng Tan has only called Papa Jiao when Jiao Ma was ill.
Zheng Tan was still a little nervous when pressing the button, but after pressing the number, the voice in the receiver said the number you dialed is an empty number with the same tone for thousands of years, Zheng Tan was stunned.
Dial again, still the same.
Jiao's landline has changed number?
Zheng Tan dialed Jiao's father's phone number again, but couldn't get through, and Jiao's mother's phone number still didn't work.
Paralyzed!
Is there a problem with this machine? !
Can't make long distance calls?
That's not right, I heard the head of the household calling someone from abroad yesterday, how could it be possible to lock the long distance? !
Zheng Tan didn't give up, tried again, but the result was the same.
Zheng Tan was so angry that he wanted to drop the phone.
It's a pity that I don't remember the phone numbers of other people in Chuhua City. Zheng Tan squatted on the sofa and raised his paws to scratch his head.
Wei Leng's, Yi Xin's dormitory, Zhao Le's, Xiao Zhuo's, Ah Huang's, Fatty's, Old Lan's, Qu Xiangyang's... Zheng Tan didn't remember any of these people's numbers!
That time Wei Leng also mentioned his new mobile phone number, but Zheng Tan turned around and forgot it.
damn it!
Sorry! !
The sound of cloth cracking was heard, Zheng Tan came back to his senses, looked at the sofa under him, accidentally scratched the fabric sofa.
Hope this owner doesn't get connected to the cat.
Zheng Tan tugged at his ears, jumped off the sofa, found something to fill his stomach in the kitchen, and dug out a can of milk to drink.
Although he ate and drank enough, Zheng Tan still felt chills in his heart.
As night fell, the huge villa was quiet.
Zheng Tan didn't like this kind of deserted and quiet, he swung his tail and slapped the ground.
The vehicles of the surrounding residents pass by, the light changes, and the shadow of the window frame is also moving on the wall of the living room.
Beep——
After the family returned home, they honked the horn twice. You could vaguely hear them talking and laughing outside the house.
Shout out!
Zheng Tan sat up impatiently, and went out through the window. Under the cover of night, Zheng Tan could also avoid being captured.
What happened to Uncle Gan made the people on that street calm down a bit, and besides, this place is no longer within the range of that street, and no one is catching cats outside.
Zheng Tan strolled to the destination, came to the edge of the community, and got out through the gap in the fence.
Before walking far, when passing by a fast food restaurant, Zheng Tan's attention was attracted by the conversation between the two people over there.
Okay, I have to leave first, and I will find you when I come back from Nancheng. The man in the leather vest said to the other person.
Be careful driving at night, and call brother when you arrive in Nancheng.
Know.
Wearing a vest, he waved his hand and said goodbye to the man, then walked to the parking lot with the key and got on a pickup truck.
Nancheng?
Zheng Tan hurried up and jumped onto the cargo box of the pickup truck.
Except for a suitcase and a few bags thrown up by the man in the vest, there is nothing in the cargo box, and there is still a lot of space inside.
Zheng Tan stood up, leaned on the side of the cargo box of the pickup truck and looked out, then found a place that was sheltered from the wind and closed his eyes to rest.
When he was about to fall asleep, Zheng Tan suddenly thought of something. Calculated according to the time, if he was still studying in Nancheng at this time, if he really existed, he would seem to be as old as Jiao Yuan's kid? !
