Strange Life of a Cat

Chapter 40 A Cat Like a Man

After Mr. Gu returned to his hometown, he asked people to bring things here every now and then, because this year the four members of the Jiao family did not go back to their hometown for the New Year, and the old people on both sides were thinking about them. I have already started preparing for the Chinese New Year, and this year the Chinese New Year is also early, and many people there often go to the provincial capital to sell things and supply some regular customers, such as fruits and meat products, so at the end of December, every few days The next day, someone called Papa Jiao and asked him to pick up things.

The aquaculture industry in my hometown is well-developed. Many people contract fish ponds, and there are all kinds of fish.

But none of that has anything to do with Zheng Tan. Ever since Wei Leng moved to the company, Zheng Tan, who is farthest around the school, has gone to Xiao Guo, and there is no other place to go.

He can't run around outside the campus during the day, which is not as simple as inside. On campus, Zheng Tan can go for a walk in many places to relax. Some college students who see Zheng Tan tend to have good intentions towards cats. After all, students are still simpler than those who have been struggling in society for many years. .

But after leaving the campus, many people looked at Zheng Tan as if they were looking at a plate of food. If he was still a human, Zheng Tan would not have noticed anything, but from the perspective of a cat, Zheng Tan I can feel the meaning of those people looking at him.

Cats that often roam the streets and alleys are always very sensitive to people's every move, and Zheng Tan's feeling became stronger and stronger after he slipped away for a while.

Therefore, when Zheng Tan went for a walk outside the school, it was always at night, and there were not many people at night, so he would not always be surprised.

Most of the working-class people who have entered the society come and go in a hurry when they go home at night. They don’t care too much when they see a cat. But at the end of the year, many people catch stray cats and domestic cats walking around and sell them to some restaurants. , some will be shipped directly to other provinces in order to avoid trouble. This is what those cats should pay attention to the most.

Zheng Tan has never met a cat dealer, but there are still many obstacles.

As a cat, Zheng Tan said that the pressure is still great. He underestimated the mentality and persistence of the male cats grabbing territory. Those restless cats would fill up their shit and piss when they had nothing to do. Zheng Tan tried to walk some distance by himself, but finally came back disappointed .

Although it's not that Zheng Tan can't beat those cats, and those cats are not all ignorant of current affairs, there are always two exceptions.

One night when Zheng Tan was walking towards Xiao Guo’s pet center, he came across a black cat just like himself, but there were always other cats around that black cat, and Zheng Tan felt that it should be its little brother. To put it more elegantly, it is called the direct descendant, and to put it more simply, it is called the follower.

However, Zheng Tan has never lost in every fight, and what annoys Zheng Tan is that this black cat doesn't have a long memory, once it fights, it jumps out aggressively the second time, the so-called indomitable, the more courageous it is. Zheng Tan felt that this kind of guy was just a fool, a fool, looking for abuse.

Originally, Zheng Tan thought that this kind of fighting was necessary as a cat, and he had to fight wherever he went, but one day, Zheng Tan discovered a special case.

Christmas is coming, and some international students in the school are busy with it. Xiao Guo thought about a cat food advertisement about Christmas, let Zheng Tan play Santa Claus, and let the golden retriever "lord" play the elk.

When Zheng Tan was taken to the studio by Xiao Guo, he saw the "Master" squatting next to him, with a pair of plastic antlers stuck on his head, he was squatting there with his mouth open hahaha, he must have been training for commercials Some of the actions needed in the game, only a short rest at this time.

Zheng Tan and the cats in Xiaoguo's store have all worked together with this golden retriever. Although there is no so-called tacit understanding, they are not at odds. The pets get along fairly well. All the cats in Xiaoguo’s store except “Prince” have been neutered. Although “Prince” is also a male cat, but because he is used to keeping it indoors, he is less aggressive than the ones that Zheng Tan saw in the streets and alleys. There are much fewer cats, and there are so many cats in Xiaoguo's store. They are used to the presence of cats other than themselves, and they rarely compete to occupy a certain area.

I have filmed many commercials, and the staff here are all old acquaintances, and they all know that it is enough to train the other role players in the commercials. As for the black cat, it is an "expert" who is "hired with a high salary". No guidance required. So there was a situation where the "lord" was panting from exhaustion, and Zheng Tan was squatting aside and dozing off.

Finally, after the "master" was able to complete a series of actions, Xiao Guo woke up Zheng Tan and started filming.

Putting on that silly Christmas meow costume, Zheng Tan felt that his IQ was about to be lowered.

It's uncomfortable to wear, although it won't make you panic, but you always feel uncomfortable, that's fine, Xiao Guo also brought a big beard to put on Zheng Tan, and then put on a hat, how silly it is.

It is estimated that people who see this advertisement will complain: Santa Claus is a black cat, black!

Forget it, just put up with it for the sake of advertising. We are also dedicated to art. Zheng Tan found comfort in his heart.

The task of Christmas Mew is to drive a golden sleigh to deliver “gifts” from the “Obviously So” Pet Center to those cats and puppies, including cat food, dog food, pet clothes, pet nests and so on.

After bumping and bumping, Zheng Tan kicked off his clothes as soon as he walked out of the venue, shook off his beard, and squatted on the tall cat climbing frame to wait for Xiao Guo to finish his work and send him home.

Later work is the work of Xiao Guo and Yanzi. Yanzi is now a resident customer of the pet center. Seeing that Yanzi has good computer skills, Xiao Guo often asks Yanzi to help. Of course, the help is not for nothing. Yanzi stays here for free , eat and drink for free, and feed the cats for free.

A group of staff over there are sorting out the post-production work. Zheng Tan's squatting side seems much deserted. He squatted before, but now he can't sleep, looking around boredly.

Finally, Zheng Tan's eyes fell on "Li Yuanba" mother and son.

"Li Yuanba" is still the same. The cats in the store are always far away from him. When some of them are curious, they will be forced to retreat by a glance. They don't need to lift their paws, and they can get it done with a look. This is Zheng Sigh quite admirable place.

And the cat squatting next to "Li Yuanba" with a "mole" on its mouth is "Li Yuanba"'s son Peanut Candy, which Xiao Guo and the others simply call "Peanut".

When looking at the photo for the first time, Zheng Tan didn't look carefully, so he didn't find the characteristic "mole" on Peanut Candy's mouth. The mouth of Peanut Candy is basically covered with white fur, but the yellow spot with the size of a mung bean on the side of the mouth is particularly eye-catching in the surrounding white, which looks very funny.

Zheng Tan thought, in a few months, this "mole" the size of a mung bean will probably become the size of a soybean. As for whether the "mole" will be the size of a quail egg when Peanut Candy grows up in the future, it will be decided. It is unknown, but Zheng Tan is looking forward to it, happy to hear it.

The hair of Peanut Candy is longer than other short-haired cats, but it is different from those long-haired cats. It is estimated that its father is a long-haired cat or a string cat.

Another thing Zheng Tan was surprised by was the serious expression on this peanut candy.

In Ahuang's case, the word "serious" is just a pretense, but the seriousness of Peanut Candy is really serious, and it has deeply inherited the expression of "Li Yuanba", but now Peanut Candy is still young, with ignorant eyes, and does not have it on the body Damn that momentum.

After "Li Yuanba" squatted on the side for a while, he walked into the house with peanut candy in his mouth. There was a room over there that belonged to swallows, and there was an entrance and exit specially designed for cats under the door.

From Zheng Tan's place, he could see the room, and he watched "Li Yuanba" take the peanut candy into the room, and then walked out again, this time by himself, and then, it didn't go to the studio. Go, go to the other end of the aisle instead.

Zheng Tan remembered that there was also a back door over there, but that door was only opened when moving goods or large props and instruments, and it was always closed at ordinary times.

Why is "Li Yuanba" going there?

Anyway, idle is idle, Zheng Tan jumped off the cat climbing frame out of curiosity, and followed.

"Li Yuanba" looked back at Zheng Tan who was not far away, but didn't respond, and continued to walk to the back door.

There are some goods stacked at the back door, but it is far from the door. There is a small window near the corner, the window is relatively high, and it is open, probably for ventilation-many of the goods shipped have a strong smell.

The height of the small window is not within the jumping range of the cats in the store, so Xiao Guo is not afraid that the cats in the store will run out of this small window.

"Li Yuanba" walked over there. When Zheng Tan was puzzled, it suddenly started to accelerate. The direction of running was not the window, but the side wall next to it. It jumped over and quickly touched the side wall. Changing the angle, he kicked his hind legs and jumped towards the small window by the reaction force of the side wall. Accurate landing.

Fuck! This skill is so fucking awesome!

Zheng Tan watched from behind until his jaw almost dropped out.

Sure enough, it was impossible to guard against. Xiao Guo would never have thought that a cat would be able to walk out of the small window through this jumping method.

There were still some empty boxes piled up outside the door, which just formed a step for "Li Yuanba" to jump down safely, and soon it disappeared from Zheng Tan's sight.

Zheng Tan squatted there and hesitated for a while, then tried to jump directly to the small window, his jumping power was slightly stronger than that of ordinary cats. After trying a few times, Zheng Tan gave up, just a little bit short.

Therefore, Zheng Tan began to try the jumping method of "Li Yuanba". For the first time, he failed to control the angle and strength and hit the wall directly. Fortunately, Zheng Tan was able to control his body at that moment and landed safely. Legs are a little numb.

The second time, it was a little bit better than the previous one. It didn't hit the wall, but just hit the open glass window, making a "boom".

Stretching his legs and feet, after the pain in his legs disappeared, Zheng Tan tried for the third time, and this time he finally climbed up the window sill, kicked his legs, pushed Zheng Tan up on his paws, and looked outside.

What Zheng Tan didn't expect was that not far away, "Li Yuanba" was squatting on an empty cardboard box and looking at this side.

Waiting for me?

After seeing the black cat in the window, "Li Yuanba" turned around and jumped out of the cardboard box, and walked outside.

Zheng Tan quickly followed.

Trapping a cat is more difficult than trapping a dog. Zheng Tan now has a deep understanding of it. "Li Yuanba" learned about it from somewhere, and found a few gaps to get in. be found by anyone.

The place Zheng Tan passed by at the beginning was very unfamiliar, but gradually, the scenery became familiar. Zheng Tan came here when he was walking from the campus, and met here...

"Meow--"

Just as he was thinking, Zheng Tan heard that voice that annoyed him so much.

The one who is paralyzed is that silly cat!

Looking up to the sound, Zheng Tan really saw the black cat squatting on the low wall, and there were two other little cats around it.

Different from the previous encounters, Zheng Tan felt that there was something wrong with that silly cat today, and the two cats around did not come up to join in the fun. After observing, Zheng Tan found that the three cats were staring at the direction of "Li Yuanba" as if facing a formidable enemy.

The "persistence" cat would only let out a few low-pitched "whoops" when it met "Li Yuanba", and then ran away. abuse. Several other cats also scattered cleanly.

Not only these three, as he walked deeper into the alley, Zheng Tan also saw several cats, two of them were quite big, and there was a smell of their "enclosure" around them, but "Li Yuanba" couldn't see them like that. Squinting across their territory fearlessly, the cats only uttered a few "whoops" when they saw it. "Li Yuanba" glanced sideways, and they ran away, as if there was a big dog chasing after them.

Zheng Tan was deeply moved by this situation.

It can be seen from this that Zheng Tan is still far from being a cat now. Strength is one aspect, but so is aura.

As for Li Yuanba, he can be regarded as the female man among cats, the cat Sla in Xiaoluo's eyes, with his fierce appearance and domineering aura, he can completely calm down this alley where stray cats and domestic cats are mixed.

The cats' strong sense of territoriality seemed to disappear at this time, and Zheng Tan could see the fear in the eyes of those cats when they saw "Li Yuanba".

Zheng Tan looked at the tortoiseshell cat in front of him that kept its pace unchanged. It was a kind of aura that was inadvertently revealed. Zheng Tan still remembers that when Xiao Guo saw "Li Yuanba" for the first time, he never got close to it other than opening the pet bag. It is about a message conveyed silently by itself.

The language of cats is not lacking. Different tones, different long and short sounds, and different vocalization methods express different meanings. However, from leaving the pet center to now, Zheng Tan has never heard this tortoiseshell cat make a sound, it is completely based on a silent aura and momentum. For those who don't know it, they may not be able to see this difference, but now Zheng Tan can clearly feel that the tortoiseshell cat in front is something that is far different from other cats.

The external appearance is determined innately, while the aura is polished by world events and time.

Zheng Tan didn't know what "Li Yuanba" had gone through, but for a seemingly ordinary cat to have such an aura and aura, his experience would definitely not be simple.

But at the same time, Zheng Tan couldn't help thinking, what kind of cat can take down this cat Sla? Who is the father of Peanut Candy? Really want to know the answer.
