Strange Life of a Cat

Chapter 128: When a cat meets a thief

Views:

He didn't change Zheng Tan's walking route when he met the sheriff. After a short pause, he went straight to the old tile-roofed house where Jiao Wei's sports car was.

The sheriff looked at Zheng Tan, who was walking away, and then looked at the two cats that appeared in the grass. He flicked his tail, and ran after Zheng Tan. However, the cats in the grass also followed. For these cats, there is no specific place as their destination, they just come here to play.

When the sheriff followed Zheng Tan, he would also turn to the side to chase and play with the cats. These playful sounds attracted more cats who came out to play around. As a result, more and more The cats gathered towards this side.

This phenomenon is not due to a single leader. Among cats, only lions live in groups. Many people say that cats are more assertive. Perhaps it is because of this "independence" that the cat's character is created, so that sometimes it is elusive to think differently. Of course, cats living in the human world will also find companions to play with.

As for why there is no "regional force" formed here, Zheng Tan thought about it, it should be the reason of the place itself, not their old nest, just a place to play, the cats are not fixed, like the sheriff, it is estimated that Consider a "new arrival".

Zheng Tan ignored the cats running around and walked along the path, paying attention to the old tile-roofed houses around him. He once heard a few school sanitation workers get together to chat and mention that although the school doesn't make any big moves in this old tile-roofed building area, it still sends people to clean it up every now and then, and one of the things is to clean up stray cats.

Once, a worker in charge of cleaning found a litter of kittens in one of the tile-roofed houses. No female cat was seen, and he didn't know what to do. In the end, a sanitation worker brought the litter home to feed. Later, I didn't hear a female cat meowing around. It is estimated that the female cat went out for food and was trapped.

Also, when Zheng Tan was wandering around this area, he gradually discovered that many old tile-roofed houses in this place were not unoccupied. In addition to Jiao Wei and his group, some people applied for temporary use rights. They are all student associations that can't find a suitable place. The school encourages students to be self-improvement and innovation, and also supports many clubs and associations. The old tile-roofed houses they find have also been inspected. Even if they look like a dilapidated house from the outside, if they really want to use them, they can be used for a few years. Others marked with the mark will not work, that is the real dilapidated house, prone to accidents.

In this way, there are people moving, and the probability of those stray cats "settling" here is even smaller.

Therefore, the cats who come here to play are not the cats who "settled" here, but the cats that live in various places around. Among them, there are also cats from the western compound, who just chased and beat the sheriff the most. Just that. It is precisely because of this that Zheng Tan is not afraid of being besieged by cats.

Zheng Tan climbed over the construction fence outside and came to the old tile-roofed house where Jiao Wei and his sports car were built. The door is a kind of thick wooden door, and it looks a bit old. The reason why the metal door or grille door is not used may be to avoid the suspicion of "there is no silver 300 taels here", after all, the surrounding tile houses are all wooden doors.

Zheng Tan didn't go through the gate, there was a window next to it and there was no glass in the upper right corner. After Zheng Tan jumped onto the windowsill, he turned in through the broken window.

After Zheng Tan, the sheriff followed and went in. For the cat, the number of times to open the window is not necessarily less than the number of times to go through the door. Although several other cats also came here, only two followed.

The sheriff and two other cats went in and sniffed and looked around. Zheng Tan ignored them, jumped on a shelf where things were placed, and rummaged through it to find a model of a car that had not yet been fitted with a casing, and a matching remote control.

The sheriff didn't understand what Zheng Tan was doing, and when he saw Zheng Tan put the car model on the runway, he leaned over to sniff it, raised his paw and patted it, finding it boring, and was about to leave to find something interesting. Hearing the sound of the car model suddenly, he arched his back and jumped back in fright, but soon, when the car model started to run on the track, the guy became bold and followed beside the track.

Zheng Tan pressed the remote control with his claws, and it was a bit unfamiliar and inconvenient to control the car model. The remote control was relatively large and it was inconvenient to hold, so Zheng Tan directly put the remote control on the ground to operate. As soon as I started running, the car hit the plastic protection next to the runway. Zheng Tan walked over and turned the overturned car over and put it on the track again. After a few seconds, it hit it again and turned it over again. Moreover, because it is a circular runway, driving is a bit more difficult. Zheng Tan's current cat paws are not good at controlling details. He never felt that it would be so difficult to control such a toy-like car model.

Just like that, hit, flip back, hit again, flip back again.

After a few repetitions, things got much better. Now he has been able to reduce the number of hits and rollovers in a lap to less than five.

I was too focused just now, and when Zheng Tan paid attention to his surroundings again, he found that there were several cats watching around the runway.

It is estimated that he was a little wary of seeing new things and did not get too close. The sheriff followed the car at first, but later found that the speed of the car was faster, and the car was only running within this range, so he squatted there and stared.

After resting for a while, Zheng Tan was about to start again when suddenly his ears moved and he looked outside. Then lightly ran to the side, jumped into a window chair, stood up, and looked out the window.

A construction enclosure was pushed, and a sneaky figure came in from outside. Under the moonlight, even the human eye can see them. Unfortunately, there are no people around here at night, and young couples rarely go here on dates. After all, there are no street lights and no sense of security.

Thief? This is the most likely!

It's just that there are still people looking at this broken place

After the man came in, he looked around and found that there was no one else, and greeted the people behind him to come in together.

One man and one woman looked young, like school students. There are too many thieves in this little couple-like combination, and they can cover anything, but Zheng Tan feels that the "doing" of the two is not as good as the two in the Eastern District compound before. "Dao Xing" is not high, and it is easy to deal with.

When the people outside pushed the construction fence, the cats outside were frightened and ran away, so the man and the woman didn't notice how many cats were around. The construction fence is made of some light materials, and it is not of good quality. It has been a long time, and now there are several places that are damaged. A large gap can be pushed open, and it is easy to get in.

Zheng Tan saw them coming towards the window, jumped off the chairs, and looked around. There was a wrench in the corner. It was probably not often used. It was covered with a layer of ash. Not centrally placed.

Zheng Tan walked over, picked up the wrench, weighed it, and then quietly came to a place four or five meters away from the door.

Several cats in the house also heard the movement outside, and a cat by the door retreated to join the others.

Zheng Tan is walking upright now, and he is not afraid of the cats here to inform him. Anyway, these cats can't even understand his unusual behavior, let alone find someone to inform him.

Holding the wrench, Zheng Tan listened to the whispered conversation of the two at the door. Even if they believe that there is no one on the facade, they dare not talk loudly. After all, at this time, it is impossible to say whether anyone will pass by on the other side of the construction fence.

"There... is there really something valuable in here? How much can it sell for?" asked a deliberately low female voice.

"There must be. As long as we sell the things that those people play, there will definitely be a few hundred dollars, maybe even thousands, and the money can buy you a few more clothes. You didn't go shopping last time. Look at a bag in a Chinese specialty store, if we sell it, the bag will be there, and we can also sell brand-name perfumes," the man said.

"Can you unlock the lock without a key?" the woman wondered.

The door lock sounded, and someone outside should be picking the lock.

Because of some things that happened in the compound in the East District, Zheng Tan had a very bad impression of the thief, which was extremely bad. And according to Zheng Tan's temperament, although he is too lazy to meddle in his own business, when it concerns himself, he will deal with it once he encounters it. When he was in the Eastern District Compound, he was able to use the bull's mouth to strengthen them, but now, he has to deal with it himself.

The cats inside didn't make any noise. At this time, they were just vigilant and ready to respond and escape at any time.

The wooden door slowly opened with a long "squeak" sound, and the silver moonlight came in.

"Hey, let me tell you, this door lock won't trouble me." The man said proudly.

"Be careful, don't run out of someone suddenly." The woman still seemed a little scared, but the temptation of brand-name clothes, bags, perfume, etc. was too great, so she followed in.

"It's okay, absolutely no one..."

The voice came to an abrupt end, as they saw pairs of glowing eyes.

In the silent night, under the silver-white moonlight, in the old old tile-roofed house, especially when the two of them are doing bad things, suddenly seeing these shining eyes will always make people feel terrified.

"what… "

The woman wanted to scream, but the man covered her mouth as soon as she made a sound.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a cat, not a human..." Although he was also startled just now, he probably does more of this kind of thing, and the man's psychological quality is stronger than the woman's, but before he could finish speaking, the face Last burst of pain.

Bang!

Nosebleeds splattered, and one of the front teeth was lost.

Someone once sighed, when a thief meets a cat, what can a cat do? The dog can still give an early warning, and can go up to bite. The cat may have run away long ago, or just curled up in a corner to sleep.

Yes, that's mostly the case, but unfortunately this thief is out of luck today.

The blood-stained wrench fell to the ground with a crisp "clang" sound.

And because of the crisp sound, the cat inside began to run away, driven by fright and fear.
