The golden pocket watch was not big, but it should have some weight, Zheng Tan felt it when he grabbed it.
Seeing Chen Zhe's indifferent reaction, Zheng Tan felt that this pocket watch was like a very common daily necessities in life, and there was nothing to be cautious about. Chen Zhe didn't squeeze it tightly when he held it. If it was a precious object, it would definitely not be like this, and he didn't panic when he saw Zheng Tan throwing the pocket watch on the table with a thud. Check, there is no meaning to be angry.
However, after thinking about what Chen Zhe just said, Zheng Tan is not sure again.
Before that, Zheng Tan heard that Ye Hao and the others said that a certain material in Chen Zhe's hands could bring down Lai Er and let Ye Hao and the others cut a strong competitor in Chuhua City. Ye Hao also I really wanted to get that material, but Zheng Tan didn't hear any "material" when he overheard the video call between Lai Er and Chen Zhe. The word "thing" appeared before, and this "thing" sounded like It is very important to Lai Er, and Lai Er himself has eyes and eyes.
thing…
Zheng Tan looked back at the golden pocket watch by the sole of his foot. How can something that can make people betray their friends only at the level of daily necessities
Chen Zhe saw the cat in front of him staring down at the thing at his feet, thinking it was just curious, like a new toy, so he didn't pay too much attention, but continued on his own: "Father was there back then. Before the accident, he told me that if you can escape, leave this place far away and start a new life. If you really can't survive, you can open it. However, I hate this thing very much. Every time I see it, I will think that it is the cause The greed and malice of the betrayer. As for life, it’s ordinary, and you can live with the money you make. There are so many shining people, I don’t need to join in the fun. In this world, some people are high-profile and some are low-key. ."
Saying that, Chen Zhe poked the head of the cat in front of him with his finger, "Just put this thing here as you wish. Those people, whoever finds it first will belong to God, let's see. This is also a kind of chance. ,dont you agree?"
It's your uncle!
Zheng Tan tilted his head, avoided Chen Zhe's fingers, and continued to study what was so special about the local gold pocket watch at his feet. The trouble was that, with Chen Zhe watching, Zheng Tan didn't dare to do anything too special to ordinary cats. actions, such as picking up a pocket watch and opening it.
Chen Zhe suddenly remembered something, got up and walked to a cardboard box in the room that had not been sealed with tape, opened the cardboard box, and flipped inside.
Zheng Tan walked over and took a look. There were some pens, boxes, notebooks, folders, etc. in the box.
Chen Zhe took out a plastic pencil case from the inner cardboard box. The box was a bit large and divided into two layers. The upper layer had some colored pencils of different lengths, and the lower layer was neatly arranged ordinary pencils, arranged from B to H.
These colored pencils of different lengths were given by a child in the community. Chen Zhe once drew them a pencil drawing, and the child gave Chen Zhe the old colored pencils that he had been using in the corner. I feel that I already have a few new sets of colored pencils, and I don't need the old ones, so I might as well give them to this uncle who often gives candy and can draw.
Chen Zhe casually took a half-length pencil that was not used up last time, opened the drawing book and prepared to draw, but before he started to write, a cat's paw rested on the edge of the carton, making Chen Zhe's attention not taken away from the carton. He stopped what he was doing, and followed the cat's line of sight, and found that the cat in front of him was looking at those colored pencils.
Color pencil drawing
Chen Zhe thought for a few seconds, looked at the pen he took out at random, put it back, and picked up another pencil.
With cheap pens, the painting skills are far inferior to those of those who graduated from the academic school, but Zheng Tan thinks that the painting is still very good, at least he thinks that Chen Zhe did not draw himself crookedly.
This is also the first time that Chen Zhe has drawn colored pencils for so many years.
Actually, color is not bad, isn't it
After finishing the painting, according to habit, Chen Zhe marked the date, etc., and then looked at Zheng Tan, "Keep it as a souvenir, I don't like taking pictures, so I will draw you again, and I can remember that I once knew one when I recall it later. cat."
Chen Zhe carefully put the paintings into the folder, and after tidying up the cardboard boxes, he sat back in his chair and said, "I'm leaving tonight, and maybe I won't come back in the future."
Leave at night? in such a hurry? ! Did the check come to the door
After staying with Chen Zhe for another ten minutes, Zheng Tan couldn't stay any longer, he had to go home.
Chen Zhe stood on the balcony and looked at the black cat shadow that quickly ran away and disappeared.
The next day, Zheng Tan was taken by Xiao Guo to temporarily shoot a video as a promotion for the new product. Zheng Tan didn't have time until the evening. After dinner, Zheng Tan thought about it and decided to go out. From last night until now, Zheng Tan has been thinking about Chen Zhe and the local tyrant's gold pocket watch.
After making the decision, Zheng Tan stretched and jumped off the sofa, ready to go out.
"Hei Tan, are you still going out to play at night?" Jiao Ma, who was washing dishes at the kitchen door, looked at her and said.
Zheng Tan looked at Jiao's mother, and there was a small "wow" sound in his throat. Zheng Tan still can't make the normal meow of a normal cat, but the people of Jiao's family are used to Zheng Tan's difference. , "Oooo", "Wow" and the like have not been heard less often.
Therefore, after hearing the "wow", Jiao Ma said, "Come back early."
In fact, many pet owners will communicate with them in their daily life and treat them in a normal conversational tone.
For example, when a small Jingba raised by a family in the compound wants to poop and urinate, it will jump on its feet to attract attention. The family will untie its lanyard, take it to the door of the building, open the door, and then ask for help. It said, "Go, pull it back", and then the little Jingba would rush to the grass and the landscape tree by itself. He went back to the building and wagged his tail to the owner for a reward. Every time Zheng Tan saw that scene, he would despise it and ask for a reward for pooping. It was so stupid.
After leaving Chuhua University, Zheng Tan went straight to the community where Chen Zhe lived.
Standing downstairs, Zheng Tan saw that Chen Zhe's house had not turned on the lights, and the door on the balcony was closed but not locked. Zheng Tan jumped up and opened the door before it was dark and the street lights were still on.
The room was empty, with no popularity, only simple furnishings and darkness.
This is what Chen Zhe meant by "your suggestion" and "that's it". God knows that at that time, Zheng Tan only thought that the pocket watch was unsightly, so he threw it at his feet, but he didn't expect to cause Chen Zhe's misunderstanding.
Zheng Tan moved his ears, making sure that there was no one in the room at this time, jumped on the table, and saw the local tyrant gold pocket watch on the desk in this room. There are no longer computers, translation materials, books and magazines, not even a teacup, which makes the pocket watch even more conspicuous.
Walking to the pocket watch, Zheng Tan raised his two front paws to pick up the pocket watch. Anyway, no one was looking at him at this time, and he was not afraid of being discovered when he walked on two legs.
The sky was already dark at this time, and the room was dark. Zheng Tan didn't dare to turn on the lights at will, and besides, he could see the scene inside the house without turning on the lights, so there was no need to take the risk of being discovered.
As I thought before, this pocket watch is a bit heavy, not as light as it looks.
Zheng Tan groped for a while before opening the pocket watch. When he opened it, Zheng Tan was worried that there might be a trap set by Chen Zhe. Although he didn't have that creepy feeling anymore, Zheng Tan was still a little nervous in his heart and couldn't do anything about it. , scared, sequelae.
After opening it, Zheng Tan found out that it was not a pocket watch. There was a dial on it, with no numbers in it, and there was only one pointer. When Zheng Tan held the pocket watch and looked left and right, the pointer also moved with it. .
compass
No, aren't compasses all double-headed, one N and one S? Besides, this pointer is not pointing to the south.
In connection with the information he heard before, Zheng Tan guessed a lot of possibilities. One of the guesses that excited Zheng Tan the most was, could it be that there is something secret in the direction indicated by this pointer
Is it the material that Ye Hao said, or something else
No matter what the pointer pointed to, Zheng Tan didn't dare to act rashly.
If this thing is really that important, as Zheng Tan guessed, this thing is too hot.
The price of overloading is heavy. Zheng Tan doesn't want to be like Chen Zhe's family, and now Zheng Tan is just a cat, a cat that can't even speak for you by the law. . Even the Jiao family who stayed there were ordinary people with ordinary backgrounds. How could they compete with those people
Not to mention Fang Sanye and Ye Hao's grades, ordinary gangsters can put the Jiao family of three without Jiao's father into crisis. Zheng Tan didn't want to think about conspiracy theories or think too much, but having experienced this incident, Zheng Tan knew that "accidents" were really not that difficult.
But it seems too wasteful to put this thing here. Chen Zhe doesn't care, he has already avenged his revenge and went to pursue a peaceful life, but he doesn't care, there are more people who care.
Zheng Tan moved his ears, and when he heard the movement at the door, his heart froze. At this time, it shouldn't be Chen Zhe, right
It's not Chen Zhe, it's most likely those who have been looking for this "thing", it may be Ye Hao's people, or it may be someone else.
Zheng Tan lightly buckled the thing on his paw, wrapped the chain, and walked out of the balcony with it. Fortunately, he didn't close the balcony door when he came in just now. It's convenient to leave at this time, and it won't cause the door to open. sound.
Zheng Tan got out from the balcony and walked to the empty platform above the parking space. Fortunately, the angle here is better, the lights of the community can't shine here, and no one would notice that a cat was walking upright just now, with both paws still hugging. thing.
Putting the thing in his hand in the corner, Zheng Tan squatted in front of it to block it, and then put his ears to listen to the movement in Chen Zhe's house.
There must be more than one person entering the room, and the person who entered did not turn on the light. After a while, Zheng Tan heard them curse in a low voice, and then they should be calling to report.
Soon those people left, Zheng Tan walked to the edge of the empty platform and looked down. Three young people went out from the building, and one of them lowered his voice and cursed again, which made Zheng Tan sure that they were the ones who entered Chen Zhe's house just now.
When the three people drove away, Zheng Tan was about to turn back, but found someone came out of a car parked below. From the angle, I can't see the face, but Zheng Tan feels that this person is somewhat familiar, and he should know him.
When the man passed by, he looked up at the balcony of Chen Zhe's house, and then seemed to have a feeling, and looked at Zheng Tan, who was staying on the edge of the empty platform very close to the balcony.
Yo, still an acquaintance. After seeing that person's appearance, Zheng Tan thought to himself.
If there is one word to describe Long Qi's current mood, it would be - the alpaca in his heart has become like a galloping beast...
