"This is where?"
Vladimir wanders the unfamiliar streets blankly.
It was almost evening, and the lights were just coming on.
Everything around is specious, like Binhai City, but it doesn't seem to be.
The people walking on the street looked like they were terrified and afraid of disaster befalling them. While walking, they looked around uneasily, looking back and forth between corners, walls, treetops, and roofs.
The people who ride and drive are also very fast, coming and going in a hurry, the speed is so fast that Vladimir sweats for them.
Sure enough, with a bang, at the corner of the street, two cars rubbed against each other because they were going too fast. Fortunately, the two drivers responded quickly, stepped on the brakes in time and turned the steering wheel to the other side. The accelerator was used as the brake, the damage to the vehicle was not serious, and all the people in the car were wearing seat belts, no casualties occurred, at most it was a false alarm.
Vladimir is used to such small traffic accidents in the capital and Primordial City, and has already guessed what will happen next. It is nothing more than taking pictures and videos of people from the two parties getting out of the car and pretending that he is very good at determining damages. If you have a good temper, you can discuss whether it is private or call the traffic police. If you have a bad temper, you may directly scold and then fight.
However, the drivers in the two cars adopted an unexpected solution. They pulled down the windows and looked at the damage of their own vehicles. They glanced at each other and exchanged a few words with their eyes without words. Then one of the drivers raised his mobile phone and showed the QR code of his social software. They opened the car window and left without saying a word from the beginning to the end.
Vladimir was dumbfounded. He heard that two owners of luxury cars would often deal with it in this way when they had a traffic accident. So free and easy
It's not so much free and easy... It's better to say that they seem to be afraid of staying more at night.
This is true of all pedestrians.
That's weird, could it be... a statue of a cat god or something evil is haunting Primorye again
"Grilled skewers! Freshly baked skewers!"
Vladimir's ears pricked up as he heard a familiar shout from another street.
It's Uncle Li's voice!
It immediately jumped onto the top of the wall, took a shortcut and ran in the direction of the sound.
If it is Uncle Li, then this place should still be Binhai City
As long as it is in Binhai City, it feels relieved, the pet shop is diagonally opposite Li’s Snack Bar. It knows that Li’s Snack Shop is responsible for supplying most of the food for the pet shop. Wander around the store, and if you encounter harmful animals such as mice and cockroaches, kill them immediately.
Not long after, it saw the Lis and his wife, but strangely, they did not sell skewers in the snack bar, but returned to their old business, using electric tricycles as mobile vendors.
How is this going
Everyone knows how happy it is to have a small shop of your own. No matter how small it is, at least you don’t have to shelter from the wind and rain outside and be chased away by urban management. Why do you want to be a mobile vendor when you have your own shop
Vladimir can't figure it out, but this kind of thing is not the top priority at the moment, maybe he wants to relive the feeling of doing business in the past? Nostalgia is all the rage these days.
"Hi!"
It jumped down from the top of the wall and raised a front paw to greet them.
The Lees have seen most of the elves in the pet shop, and they also know Vladimir. When it passes by, they often feed it with roasted meat, but it has never eaten it.
It stands to reason that they shouldn't be too surprised to see it.
Unexpectedly, they acted as if they had seen a ghost, their faces lost all color in an instant, their hands trembled, and the meat skewers they were grilling fell to the ground.
"Don't...don't come here..." the old couple tremblingly said, retreating again and again.
Vladimir was stunned. It didn't understand what was going on, but thought it would not scare the two old men, it took a few steps back and stayed away from them.
They saw that it was reasonable, and that it was clean and tidy, and it didn't seem like a stray cat. They were slightly relieved, exchanged winks with each other, and immediately began to pack their things, planning to pack up and go home.
Vladimir hesitated, whether to follow them quietly, maybe he could find the pet store by following the clues, but they were so scared...
Also, what the hell are they afraid of
At this moment, it suddenly heard slight footsteps, looked up, and saw several pairs of eyes of different colors flashing on the wall.
It's a stray cat!
It’s also good to find stray cats, just ask them where the pet store is.
Vladimir was about to say hello and a signal to them, but he saw that they ignored him, fixed their eyes on the grilled meat skewers, jumped off the wall one after another, and rushed towards the electric tricycle of the Lis and his wife.
Vladimir was stunned again, what are they going to do
Li and his wife also saw the stray cat, they were shocked, they carried the main valuables into the car, and drove away without looking back, leaving behind a few simple folding tables and chairs, and there was a large plate of grilled food on the table. Alright, there are almost a hundred meat skewers.
The stray cats jumped onto the table and started gobbling up the skewers.
"Meow meow! What are you doing?"
Vladimir became angry, and he also jumped on the table, waving his claws to drive away the stray cats.
"Why do you want to rob ordinary people?" it asked sharply, trembling with anger.
If he hadn't witnessed this unbelievable scene with his own eyes, he would never have believed that stray cats would actually do such a robbery.
The stray cats jumped off the table in fright, but instead of running away, they surrounded the table and looked at Vladimir silently.
"Who is the head of your branch? Let it come to see me!" Vladimir roared.
The stray cats were startled, but soon bared their teeth, neighed fiercely at it, and tried to pounce.
"Damn meow, do you still want to rebel?" Vladimir smiled angrily, and moved his shoulders, "Looking at you, I'm afraid this is not the first time you have done this kind of thing. The boss will punish you and make an example to others!"
The stray cats seemed to feel its power, but they just bluffed around the table and didn't dare to pounce on it.
After a while, Vladimir heard slight footsteps again, and when he looked up, more stray cats appeared nearby, probably hearing the calls of his companions for help.
The nearby shops may have also heard the stray cats, and they all pulled down the shutter doors as fast as they could, closed the doors, and turned off the lights in the rooms, just like... a devil entered the village.
Vladimir was heartbroken, what is going on
More and more stray cats gathered here, and Vladimir was surrounded by three layers, but he was unafraid, his eyes were bright like torches, full of anger and grief.
The eyes of the stray cats staring at it were also full of anger. It didn't know why they were angry, because it snatched their skewers
"You guys, can anyone understand me!" it roared, temporarily suppressing their noisy hissing.
It raised one of its front paws, "Heavenly King Gaidi Meow!"
no respond.
The stray cats tensed their muscles vigilantly, thinking that it was posing weirdly to attack them, and they puffed their fur and screamed at it even louder.
Vladimir's paws were trembling, not because he was tired, but because his heart was about to break. Could it be that the stray cat organization that he had built with his own hands was going to fight each other now
"Meow meow... meow meow meow."
A faint voice came from the outside.
Immediately afterwards, the stray cats moved to both sides, and a black cat with missing ears slowly walked into the group of cats.
"A Que? Is that you, A Que?"
Vladimir exclaimed in surprise, it recognized that it was A Que, its right-hand man.
However, in the past, A Que only lost one ear, but now A Que still has one eye that is squinted, which seems to be blind. He has several scars on his body, and he is much older.
Due to the lack of vision due to the loss of one eye, Ah Que couldn't keep a straight line when walking, and would deviate to one side when walking, which made Vladimir even more distressed.
"A Que, what happened to your eyes?" It asked with gestures, "Who blinded your eyes?"
A Que stared at it suspiciously, then turned his head to listen to the neighing of the cats, and gestured to it, which meant: Traitor! Why are you helping humans
Betrayal... traitor
Vladimir was like a thunderbolt. How could it have never thought that he would be accused of being a traitor, just because he prevented the stray cat from snatching the skewers of the Li couple
"Ah Que...you don't know me anymore? I'm Vladimir!"
It had hot tears in its eyes, and it didn't shed a single tear even when it was attacked and seriously injured by Emil and Mieza.
A Que gestured even more angrily, meaning: Traitor, I was just about to ask you, where did you learn the code and this set of gestures? Why pretend to be our leader
"I… "
Vladimir was dumbfounded by the question, a mouthful of blood stuck in his chest, almost suffocating it.
"I... I'm Vladimir, Aque... What happened? Why do you want to rob humans?" it said awkwardly.
The stray cats were even more filled with righteous indignation. They neighed in unison, and their shrill meows echoed over Binhai City, attracting distant responses from stray cats farther away.
Vladimir vaguely felt that they were not screaming, but singing some kind of melody...
In the dense woods, camps for comrades are arranged everywhere;
On the high hills, there are countless good brothers of ours;
Without food or clothing, the enemy comes forward;
No guns, no cannons, the enemy made us...
A Que waved his paw, the stray cats stopped crying for a while, and then made an extremely firm gesture that made Vladimir extremely painful: eliminate human tyranny, the world belongs to cats!
The stray cats were so excited, their screams resounded through the sky, they all roared the same sentence, and the sky above Binhai City was like ghosts crying and wolves howling.
Vladimir's body went limp, and he staggered and fell off the table. His heart had been shattered into countless pieces.
This... is this a dream
How much it hopes that this is a dream, as long as it wakes up, it will forget everything in the dream.
History seems to have gone in another direction at a fork in the road.
"No... Ah Que, listen to me, this is wrong, maybe stray cats and humans can try to coexist peacefully..." it desperately explained.
A Que stared at it indifferently, and interrupted it with gestures: Traitor! How dare you question the leader, the leader is God, it is absolutely correct!
This gesture completely defeated Vladimir's defenses.
Its continuous efforts, its continuous bloodshed and sacrifices, are not to make itself the object it has been working hard to defeat.
"Your leader, where is it? I want to see it." It gasped.
A Que gestured sadly: the leader has gone, and died with a copper cat, and its unfinished business must be completed by us!
Vladimir understood that it was probably because they didn't have time to stop the statue of the cat god, allowing it to condense too much power of faith and become extremely powerful, so they all ended up dying together.
It struggled all its life, in order to sweep away all ghosts and snakes, and fell at the most glorious moment, making stray cats have absolute admiration for it, and then it was regarded as a god...
Is there anything more painful than this
But no, why did history go in this direction
Where is Zhang Zian? Why didn't he stop this, why didn't he... stop it
"Zhang Juzuo, where is it?" It asked feebly.
If... If even Zhang Zian becomes the enemy of stray cats...
A Que gestured in confusion: Zhang Juzuo, who is it
Vladimir raised his head, "Qiyuan Pet Shop? Do you know?"
A Que was at a loss.
"I... no, why did your leader come to Primorsky City?" Vladimir asked.
A Que gestured: It's okay to tell you this traitor, because the copper cat is acting recklessly and lawlessly here, the leader heard the news and trekked all the way from the capital.
I see…
No wonder the statue of the cat god became bigger and stronger. If it traveled all the way from the capital, it would definitely be too late.
This world... was the world where it hadn't met Zhang Zian.
"I see..." it murmured, "As long as you find him, he will definitely have a way to remedy it..."
"I see!"
Vladimir roared violently, and jumped into the air with all his strength. Before the other stray cats could react, it jumped onto the wall and ran desperately to the east.
Qiyuan Pet Store is located in Dongcheng District. This Binhai City is quite different from the real Binhai City. It may be a few years or ten years later in the real world. I hope the pet store has not moved at that time.
see! It's Qiyuan Pet Shop!
When Vladimir saw the signboard of Qiyuan Pet Shop from a distance, he couldn't help crying with joy. In a chaotic world, only this signboard was like a bright light that illuminated the darkness.
However, the shop door was closed, and the shutter door fell down.
Vladimir stopped at the door of the store and saw that the lights in the room were still on, which meant that Zhang Zian hadn't traveled far, otherwise, given his stinginess, he would definitely not have forgotten to turn off the switch.
It jumped onto the window sill on the second floor, and through the glass, saw Zhang Zian sitting on the bed and focusing on his phone.
Boom!
It tapped the window with its paw, but he didn't seem to hear it.
Boom!
It hit harder, and he still didn't respond.
"Zhang Juzuo, the sky is falling, do you still have time to play with your phone?"
Vladimir couldn't care so much anymore, he punched the glass hard.
Unexpectedly, the glass was so strong that instead of breaking, the reaction force bounced it back to the ground.
Vladimir raised his head as if aware of it, and saw the ball of light floating in the night sky.
So that's the case, who is playing tricks behind the scenes.
Seeing Zhang Zian, it was no longer afraid, stared at Guang Tuan Lang and said with a smile:
"As soon as there is a wind and thunder from the ground, there will be piles of bones!"
[Navigation Wizard]: Isn't this the world you want
"Fart his meow!"
Vladimir yelled, "Open the door! Or I'll smash it open!"
[Navigation Wizard]: Please don't make unnecessary attempts,
Vladimir was too lazy to listen to its nonsense, clenched his fist, and slammed it on the shutter door.
The rolling shutter door is supposed to be very thin, and when a punch hits it, it should rattle and make a lot of noise, but after this punch, the rolling shutter door remains motionless like a thousand-ton thick iron door like an underground nuclear shelter. , not even a hollow echo, only the shock of its fist hurting.
[Navigation Elf]: If you hit it any further, you will only fracture yourself. Someone has already raised a...
Vladimir laughed loudly, "Shut up!"
It clenched its fists tightly, with extremely lofty idealism in its eyes, and took a deep breath:
"Eat me with an iron fist of meowism!"
Punch out, the door is broken.
An unstoppable punch is like crushing the dead.
Debris flew horizontally, smoke filled the air, and the sky-shattering bang resounded throughout Binhai City.
A terrifyingly large hole appeared on the shutter door, as if it was blown away by a huge amount of c4.
The several figures inside the door were startled and took a few steps back one after another. Some of them were very familiar to Vladimir.
