"The end of the world" was just like what Zheng Tan thought, and it just passed. Zheng Tan didn't go online to make bets with those people, and he wasn't in the mood to join in the fun and denounce those guys who had vigorously spread doomsday theories before.
After the end of the apocalyptic year, which was hyped up on the Internet, the atmosphere in the Jiao family became more and more tense.
One is Xiaoyouzi's college entrance examination, and the other is Zheng Tan's state.
Xiaoyouzi did not choose Chuhua University's recommendation. Because of the limited number of places, she gave up her place to Xie Xin, an old classmate in the Western District Courtyard. Xie Xin's grades were not as stable as her, while Xiaoyouzi's grades have always been very good, and After Jiao Dad talked, Xiaoyouzi made a decision.
For high school students, time flies faster than anyone else, as if it's not enough. Fortunately, Xiaoyuzi's psychological quality is not bad, which makes Jiao's father and Jiao's mother a lot relieved.
And Zheng Tan's problem is still the same as last year. He is always dreaming, and he feels that even if he just squints for a while, he will dream a lot. His thinking is so confusing that Zheng Tan can't sleep anymore. If you don't get enough sleep, your mental state will definitely not be good.
Jiao's mother also specially took Zheng Tan to the pet center for inspection, and found no major problems, just lack of sleep.
Jiao Yuan has called home a lot more times in the past six months. He asked about Xiaoyouzi's situation, and Zheng Tan's. He also said that if the veterinarian here can't solve it, he will take him to the capital to see it. There are also many authoritative veterinarians over there.
Zheng Tan didn't want to go, and Jiao's mother couldn't do anything about it. She thought that after Xiaoyouzi's college entrance examination, the family would go to the capital to see Jiao Yuan, and take Zheng Tan there for inspection by the way.
When Zheng Tan was at home, he looked at the desk calendar on Xiaoyouzi's desk and flipped through it. He recalled the time when he became a cat. It was probably in June, but he couldn't remember the exact time, it was ten years later. , who still remembers? Besides, Zheng Tan had always lived a chaotic day, he didn't remember the date very much, and sometimes he would miss school exams.
Stretching out his paws, Zheng Tan drew an inconspicuous trace on the dates from June 1st to the 15th, and added a few more paws on the 7th and 8th, which was the time for Xiaoyouzi's college entrance examination.
Every time Yuzi came back, Zheng Tan pretended to be in good spirits, but as soon as little grapefruit left, Zheng Tan returned to his usual state of confusion. Jiao Dad asked Zheng Tan to stay in his office. What's the matter? It was easy to take care of him, but Zheng Tan couldn't go away, he still felt comfortable at home.
On the morning of June 8, Jiao's father, Jiao's mother and Xiaoyouzi went out, Zheng Tan went out with them, Jiao's father sent Xiaoyouzi to the examination room, Jiao's mother was going to the attached middle school, Zheng Tan sent them out of the compound, originally I wanted to take another turn, but I yawned one after another and my eyelids were heavy, so I finally decided to go home and sleep.
Jumping on the sofa in the living room, Zheng Tan didn't bother to shake off the cat circle. He lifted his foot and kicked the remote control that was in the middle of the sofa far away. Then he lay in the middle of the sofa, listening to the small click of the second hand of the wall clock, and closed the door. on the eyes.
Mom Jiao suddenly thought that she didn't bring the USB flash drive after she went out on the bike. After copying the data in the morning, she forgot to unplug it, so she went back on the bike again.
The old lady of the fat man's house on the first floor was brushing the fat man's hair. After seeing Jiao's mother, she said, "I saw your black charcoal came back just now, so I should run to the house again to make up for sleep."
Hearing the old lady's words, Jiao's mother didn't care. It is estimated that she was too energetic when she sent Xiaoyouzi out in the morning, and now she is going home to rest. Jiao's mother thought, after today is over, she will take her cat to the capital to find someone to take a look, otherwise no one at home will be at ease.
When she went upstairs, Jiao's mother's eyelids kept jumping, she took out the key to open the door, and glanced inside the house.
The room was eerily quiet. There was only a cat card on the sofa, no other movement, no black cat, as if no other creature existed.
Swah—
The curtains were blown from the half-open window, and the mild June wind came in from the window.
Outside the window, the sun is shining.
—
South City.
A high-rise residence in an elevator room near Nancheng University.
In the bedroom, the sun shines through the windows and through the gaps in the curtains that are not fully drawn.
The harsh light made the person on the bed frown.
His eyelids moved, and Zheng Tan's eyes opened a slit.
The sun was shining on his face, and when he woke up and saw the sun, he closed his eyes immediately, raised his hand to block it reflexively, and then covered his eyes.
Snapped.
The sound of the slap covering the face was quite clear in the quiet room, and the slight pain was clearly transmitted to the brain.
Three seconds later, Zheng Tan opened his eyes.
Looking at the strange but somewhat familiar decorations, the curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows were half-closed and not completely covered, and the light came in from there.
In the blink of an eye, Zheng Tan's mind was still a little confused, the palm covering his face was raised, and the focus of his eyes fell on the palm.
The palm lines are clear, with five long fingers, not black furry cat paws.
"Ma's, dreaming again!"
After cursing in a low voice, Zheng Tan closed his eyes and planned to continue sleeping. After a few seconds of silence, Zheng Tan sat up abruptly and looked at the two palms raised in front of him. Zheng Tan rubbed his face vigorously and tried to make a sound again.
"Cough! Hmm-ah-eh-oh-"
Pronunciation is clear.
When you're dreaming, you don't seem to actually speak, do you
It seems that I haven't felt this way for a long time.
Still not right.
Did you dream of people when you were a cat, or did you dream of cats when you were a human
Zheng Tan took off the thin quilt on his body and got out of bed. Without shoes, he stepped directly on the gray wooden floor, walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window, and kicked aside the clothes and pants that were in the way.
This feeling of walking on two legs is slightly unfamiliar, but it feels natural.
Pull back the curtains and open the floor-to-ceiling windows.
A gust of wind was blowing head-on, with the temperature of the sun.
Zheng Tan walked to the balcony, looked at the buildings in the distance, and took a deep breath.
"what-"
It seems that I haven't felt the pleasure of shouting loudly for a long time. Although my thinking is not too clear now, Zheng Tan just feels that if he shouts like this, his mood will be much better.
After shouting, Zheng Tan habitually looked diagonally downward.
On the balcony diagonally below, there was no barbed wire, not a blue-purple parrot with a yellow eye, and there was a six- or seven-year-old child standing there, holding an ice cream in his hand, probably because Zheng Tan suddenly roared like this. , a little frightened, looked up at Zheng Tan, and didn't even notice that the ice cream melted and dripped onto the ground.
Looking back and looking into the distance, Zheng Tan shouted again.
"what-"
The roar was longer than the previous one, hysterical.
In the house downstairs, the child standing there was carried into the house by the parents who came out. The parents looked at Zheng Tan as if they were looking at a lunatic.
Not caring about other people's sights, and ignoring the scolding from other residents, Zheng Tan let out a few roars, then went into the house to take a cold shower, and his mind was much clearer when he came out.
Checked the date on the phone on the bedside table, June 12, 2013.
Zheng Tan scratched his head, number 12
There were a series of missed calls on the phone, and the caller's name was somewhat familiar. Zheng Tan ignored it and looked at the time of the call. The earliest one was called on the 8th.
Ignoring those missed calls, Zheng Tan is still confused, is the cat real or the human being? If you have a dream, it's too real. Don't you all say that after a dream, you forget it when you wake up
Open the Weibo software on the mobile phone and log in automatically, but it is not the "Zheng Tan" number in memory, log out, log in again, and enter a new account password.
After reacting for a while... Boarded!
The head portrait of the dragging black cat was the same as I remembered, and those Weibo, including the school bus game cat incident and the quarrel on the topic of the end of the world, were all posted one by one.
If the dream is real...
Zheng Tan searched for a few more keywords, such as a movie about black cats, a documentary, a pet center, and a professor surnamed Jiao, all of which were exactly the same as he remembered.
On the screen of the mobile phone, which is not too big, there are pictures that are familiar to each other, and the pictures that overlap with the memory make Zheng Tan's brain hurt.
What the hell happened to this Tamar? !
Throwing the phone aside, Zheng Tan thought hard, trying to figure out why, but in the end, his stomach couldn't carry it, so he went downstairs to find the nearest restaurant to eat.
A meal tasted like chewing wax, and he didn't pay attention to the meal at all. He mechanically took the rice spoon to deliver the meal to his mouth, but looked out the window and thought about other things.
Finally, before the meal on the plate was finished, Zheng Tan made a decision. He couldn't book the air ticket now, nor the train. He booked an express ticket. The bus at 6 o'clock in the afternoon will be able to arrive at Chuhua at 6 o'clock in the morning. city.
Since you can't figure it out, go look for the answer.
When walking back out of the restaurant, he passed a small barber shop, Zheng Tan grabbed the yellow hair on his head and walked in.
When he came out again, the yellow hair on one head turned black, and it was also cut short.
I went back and changed into a simple set of sportswear, took my mobile phone, bank card, ID card...
Looking at the avatars and names on the ID card, Zheng Tan flicked at the person on the ID card, put the ID card in his wallet, brought some change, packed it up, and headed to the station lightly.
At six o'clock the next morning, Zheng Tan walked out of the station. Instead of calling for a taxi, he walked to the bus station and looked at the stop signs outside the station and the driving routes of various vehicles. There were many familiar station names. After waiting for the bus, I found a seat by the window and sat down, watching the streets and buildings outside as the bus drove.
Just after the Dragon Boat Festival, the billboards about the Dragon Boat Festival in many shops have not been removed. There are many people going to work at this time, and there are long lines of private cars and buses at the intersections that are prone to traffic jams. The temperature outside was a little high, and the horns of cars and people's shouts filled the street.
This kind of weather and the things he encounters make people easily irritable, but Zheng Tan's mind is not on this.
The cell phone of a middle-aged passenger in the car rang, and the song carried the feeling of the golden years of the 1980s and 1990s. Zheng Tan had heard this song, not from the Internet or with the help of other electronic devices, but from a bird. Zheng Tan seemed to see the cheap bird with yellow eyes, shaking his head and singing again.
Some songs that were once dismissed are like treasures when recalled many years later. The time point of this song, the people, things, and things involved, and the emotions aroused, always make people reminisce for a long time.
On the other bus that stopped at the intersection with this bus, by the window, sat a young man with a bag on his back, nibbling on a bag of buns in his hands. Noticing that Zheng Tan was looking at him, he also looked this way. Across the two-story car window, there is still reflection, and the expression of the other party is not real.
The sign to turn right ahead lights up, and the car where Zheng Tan is going goes first. As the car drove, for a moment, Zheng Tan could clearly see the other party's expression and the doubts in his eyes, but soon, the two cars gradually drifted away.
When the street scene became familiar, Zheng Tan's mood became more complicated, a little nervous and a little happy.
There was a young policeman on the side of the street who had just caught a thief, leaned in handcuffs, and said something on the walkie-talkie.
There is a trailer for a movie on the big screen in the commercial plaza, directed by Kong Han, and the actors include Wei Wen, Xue Ding, Tao Qi…
When there were two stops left from the original destination, Zheng Tan got off the bus.
Walking along the familiar road in my memory, when passing outside the lakeside villa area, a three-legged tortoiseshell cat ran across the street with a mouse in its mouth, glanced at Zheng Tan, and then neatly Flip into the villa area from the fence. Along the road along the lake, a dark gray cat with black patterns, noticeably larger than the others, was grinding its claws on a willow tree.
Without saying a word, Zheng Tan continued to walk forward. When passing the affiliated hospital and a small grocery store, Zheng Tan looked over. The store manager with a mean face was sitting behind the counter, biting a cigarette and instructing the clerk to move the goods. A white cat squatted on the shelf and looked sharply at the passers-by.
Entering from the side door on the edge of the Chuhua University campus, Zheng Tan walked in along the surrounding wall. Next to a tall tree, on the inconspicuous fence wall, the lines of crooked handwriting written in pencil came into view.
"Zheng Heitan's visit here, December 12, 2009."
"September 9, 2010."
"February 28, 2011." There is an abstract sun behind it.
…
Zheng Tan raised his finger and touched the word, stained with some black pencil.
Twisting his fingers, Zheng Tan walked along the side path, walked through the small woods area, passed old tile houses, familiar houses, familiar lawns, paths that you could know with closed eyes, and that The compound…
The uncle of the doorman of the east compound had poisonous eyes, and at a glance, he saw Zheng Tan's raw face among the people entering and leaving the compound.
"Hey who, who are you looking for?" The uncle guard reached out the window of the guard room, pointed at Zheng Tan and shouted.
"I'm looking for Professor Jiao who lives on the fifth floor of Building B." Zheng Tan walked over and said.
"Oh, Mr. Jiao's house, he's not here, he should be in the Institute of Biological Sciences now, but their cat was lost a few days ago, and the family is going crazy looking for him, boy, do you know what his cat is? The clue? The cat that has always been pure black, so big, it's called Heitan, have you seen it?" The uncle guard asked eagerly.
"I've seen it before." After a pause, Zheng Tan added: "A very handsome cat."
Hearing Zheng Tan's answer, the light of hope in the uncle guard's eyes dimmed again. He said no more, and waved his hand to signal that Zheng Tan could go in.
Taking a deep breath, Zheng Tan lifted his foot and went in.
The aunt who came in and out with a vegetable basket glanced at Zheng Tan, guessing the origin of Zheng Tan in her heart.
On a bench under the shade of a tree near the gate of the courtyard, Old Man Li and Old Man Yan were sitting there chatting with Xiao Hua and Niu Zhuangzhuang. The two old men just glanced at Zheng Tan and didn't look again, but Xiaohua and Niu Zhuangzhuang followed Zheng Tan's gaze. In Niu Zhuangzhuang's small triangular eyes, it is rare that he is not as fierce as usual.
Ruan Ying took Sahara out, and when he passed Zheng Tan, Sahara took a bite at Zheng Tan's foot with lightning speed, and the speed was completely different from his usual debilitated appearance. The force is not too strong, and it won't bite the foot, but it is not light, because it left a few deep tooth marks and a shoe of saliva on Zheng Tan's sneakers.
Ruan Ying didn't expect that Sahara, who usually doesn't bite people, would suddenly come here, so she quickly apologized to Zheng Tan and said compensation. Zheng Tan smiled and refused.
When Ruan Ying reprimanded Sahara to leave, Sahara looked back at Zheng Tan, her eyes slightly provocative, and her tail twitched like a jerk.
Zheng Tan stared, Sahara, wait, I promise not to kill you!
When he came to the downstairs of Building B, Zheng Tan's heart beat a little faster, thinking whether to press the house number on the access control directly, or to call someone. At this time, the old lady on the first floor walked to the balcony with the civet cat, and when she saw Zheng Tan, the old lady asked Zheng Tan who he was looking for, and also asked Zheng Tan if he had seen a black cat.
After Zheng Tan answered, the old lady also looked regretful, "His family is not at home, you can go to the School of Biological Sciences to find Mr. Jiao, Yuzi should be there too... It's a pity that the black charcoal, the Jiao family all gave I cried, that kid Jiao Yuan came back and left last night, Xiao Gu's eyes were still red when he went to work today, alas, what is this called?"
The old lady was pity and babbled, but the fat man beside her stared at Zheng Tan.
Zheng Tan stretched out his hand towards it, and after the fat man glanced at the old lady, he walked over.
"Huh?" The old lady was surprised, "Young man, have you been here before? My chubby doesn't get close to strangers." There was another word that the old lady didn't say, not only did she not get close to strangers, but even the people she knew would not be close to strangers. give face. But the old lady didn't expect Big Fat to be so familiar.
Zheng Tan said, "Yeah," but he didn't know how to answer, so he scratched his chin, then got up and said to the old lady, "Then I'll go to Mr. Jiao, you'll be busy first."
Although doubtful, the old lady didn't ask much. However, after Zheng Tan left, Big Fat also followed.
In the large yard, under the trees that are neither dense nor tall, a cat with black and white flowers is playing with bugs in the grass, and a yellow cat is holding the tree and pouting its butt to grind its claws.
Zheng Tan walked over and lifted Ah Huang, who was grinding his claws, "You second-hand!" After ten years of holding back, he finally said it.
The sheriff who heard the movement stopped playing with bugs and came over.
Zheng Tan sat down on a long wooden bench nearby, and the fat man who came over jumped onto the bench and squatted beside him. Seeing this, Ah Huang and the sheriff also jumped up and squatted there in turn. As always.
On summer mornings, the temperature rises as the sun rises. There was a gust of wind blowing the leaves.
People who go to work, go to school, or buy groceries in the compound will glance at the benches when they pass by. They used to see four cats squatting side by side. It's strange to sit there with one person and three cats. When did these three cats become so familiar with the same person
After sitting on the bench for a while and feeling calmer, Zheng Tan patted the three cats, "Let's go first, and come back to play with you later."
He got up and left the compound, and when he walked along the road to the intersection, a school bus passed by, and Zheng Tan quickly waved.
The driver is the bald one, wearing a hat for image.
It was class time now, and there was no one in the car, so the bald driver spoke to Zheng Tan, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Young man, are you from our school?" the bald driver asked.
"No, but I used to come here a lot, and I know it very well, and I have ridden in your car several times." Zheng Tan replied.
Taking advantage of the neutral gear when someone got off the car, the bald driver looked at Zheng Tan, shook his head, and said with certainty, "Impossible, if you come here often and ride in my car, I definitely have an impression."
"Oh, that's probably because I remembered it wrong. I'm in the car of another master." Zheng Tan didn't bother about this issue.
The bald-headed driver gave Zheng Tan a pitying look: "My memory is not as good as mine at a young age. Go back and ask your mother to get you more fish heads, walnuts, or something to supplement your brain."
Zheng Tan: "...hehe."
"Don't take it seriously, I tell you..."
"Master, I'll get off!"
After being told by the bald driver all the way, and finally waiting for the place, Zheng Tan couldn't wait to get out of the car, looked at the familiar academy door, and walked in.
The uncle of the guard who was sitting on the side of the courtyard gate saw Zheng Tan walking so confidently, and after thinking about it, he still didn't stop this raw face.
Where is Dad Jiao's office, Zheng Tan is very familiar. When he came to the front of the office, Yi Xin happened to come out from inside, and the voices of Xiaoyouzi and Jiao Dad came from inside, which were not loud. As Yi Xin closed the door, the voices were also cut off.
Yi Xin looked at the person in front of him strangely, thinking it was an undergraduate student in the school, and left after asking casually who he was looking for.
Zheng Tan stood at the door and closed the door.
"Come in." A voice came from inside.
Zheng Tan twisted the door lock and opened the door.
(End of the book)
postscript
It's been a year and it's finally over.
As for the ending, this is the statement that I have thought about since I wrote the first chapter, so book friends don't need to threaten the statement, it can't be changed.
Since a few days ago, many book friends have inquired about the ending and asked to continue writing through Kukukou, private messages on the site, and private messages on Weibo, but the presentation still decided to come to an end today. If it's too late, it's water to write again.
Now there must be many book friends thinking: "Come here to make a statement, I promise not to kill you!"
A book friend once said: "You abuse your readers with your statement. Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, you have three hundred days to be in a state of one update!"
Another book friend said: "Chen Ci, how many book friends have you made become nocturnal animals and snake spirits because of this book?!"
After I told a friend how the ending was, the friend said: "Chen Ci, you not only abuse the readers, you also abuse the protagonist! I know you don't talk much, but which book has the protagonist from beginning to end only at the end? Did you talk in one chapter?"
Orz really, so sorry everyone!
After today, it is estimated that some people will say: "What about the explosion at the end?! What about Xie Menggeng, who agreed to make up?!"
The statement here is to apologize to the pet dog Wang Cai, Niu Niu Dian Mao, yoogi, Kasimgfu, Mechanical Baby, this is not Xiao Zhi and other alliance leaders.
I can't do it! Drag and drop, and it's over.
Speaking of the writing experience this year, it was actually not so smooth. I encountered a lot of things. Sometimes, sitting in front of the computer, I have to listen to the songs for a while, so as not to bring the negative emotions of the day into the text when typing. , after all, this is a light-hearted essay. Originally, the hand speed is not fast, and there is a buffer time, which is even slower.
Watching TV and movies, I feel that those people who are personal heroism and do good deeds without leaving their name do not exist in reality. After all, society needs to be driven by interests, and there are many things that make statements, both in life and work, and sometimes everyone gets stuck. Together, we can fight for the greater interests of Sesame. So Chen Ci used black charcoal to write some things and adjust his mood, but he didn't expect so many supporters.
Thanks to the 7,000 book friends who have been subscribing, and the book friends who subscribed and voted for rewards! Huimao is a niche article, and it is destined to be written in a short time, and the clicks are not high. However, there are more than 600,000 recommended votes, which is unexpected. Without you, Huimao would not have achieved today's results! Thank you cat friends!
I also thank Lie Shou, the editor in charge, for giving Huimao a lot of recommendations, so cute.
Regarding the new book, I haven't written it yet, I will talk about it after a break, at least a month. At that time, it will be notified in the books of Huimao and Star Hunter, and it will also be explained on Weibo. Book lovers who like the style of presentations can pay attention to it.
Everyone, see you at the next intersection.
It's late at night, go to sleep.
After finishing this book, I can finally go to bed early.
Once upon a time there was a black cat sheriff
The earliest famous cat in the Eastern District Courtyard was not the black coal from the Jiao family, nor the "heavy and steady" fat man, nor Ah Huang's "Huang Gonggong". Most of them knew that there was a black cat sheriff in their yard.
One day, when a child who had just finished the painting interest group course came back to the compound, he saw the eight-month-old sheriff running past with a mouse in his mouth. The child was in high spirits when he got home, and he didn't care. After eating, he gave full play to his artistic skills. He took out his crayons and drew a picture of "the black cat sheriff bravely captures the little thief". Later, this picture was also used for the competition. It is still in the western compound, and even people from other elementary schools in the city know that there is a black cat sheriff in the east compound of Chuhua University.
When writing essays in the Chinese class, we need to write about cats. The children in the primary school do not have cats at home, and more than half of them write about the sheriff.
At that time, the teachers of the attached primary school just laughed and thought that the children loved the "black cat sheriff" because of the cartoon, and didn't pay too much attention to the cat, until one day many years later, that cat was once popular with many people. The brave "Black Cat Sheriff" praised by the children has become the favorite of Chuhua University, and the photos are all over the country. The original language teachers also gathered in the office to discuss for an afternoon.
In the hearts of children and adults, the "black cat sheriff" is still brave.
Now, many children have changed from Xiaodouding to middle school students, and some former primary school students have already gone to college, but whenever they mention the cat in the courtyard, many people still remember the existence of a "black cat sheriff", and this guy Also often brush presence in the compound. Ten years later, it's still the same.
However, in the eyes of others, it is a different impression.
Anyone who is familiar with the sheriff knows that this cat has two characteristics: one is aggressive, it will kill you in a fight, where it will be brought down, get up and cultivate and then run over there to fight; the other is a special talent for language Yes, and this cat is very sexual.
It was once rumored that the sheriff's owner kept it as a dog since he was a child. In this regard, the sheriff's owner must complain about injustice.
The sheriff's talent for language is innate. This guy has been curious about some "weird sounds" since he was a child, such as the sound of a washing machine running, such as a TV that is on, such as musical instruments, such as the sounds of other species other than cats. When the sheriff and his owner noticed, the sheriff had followed the little Pekingese downstairs to play the game of picking things up, and he had a more and more skilled dog tongue. This kind of innate skill, even the black cat from Professor Jiao's house, who was recognized as the smartest in the entire compound, could not learn it.
Some people in medicine have said that raising cats and dogs can lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease. The strong proof of this is Da Chuan and Xiaohua. Look at the old lady who keeps Da Chuan, and then look at the daily life. Old man Li, who took the St. Bernard Xiaohua for a leisurely walk, proved that this is indeed true.
But!
Sheriff, its owner doesn't feel that way!
When the sheriff was young, he was basically forced to be locked at home. At that time, he didn't have the ability to climb over the window and climb the high wall, so the things in the home were the first to be harmed.
Sheriff and its owners can see all kinds of bad things when they come home every day. After thinking about the experience, when family members leave, they will unplug the TV, turn off the washing machine, and put nothing on the refrigerator, or just put some paper. Quality, closet locks...
The sheriff's mental state is always swinging between active and abnormally active, except for sleeping and eating time, he has to do something to satisfy his overly curious curiosity, and he touches everything that is used by people. It is also curious about things that people don't use. It used to be very curious about the iron. After being ironed by the iron, it can only remember it, but it only closes the claws. Every time the sheriff and his cat mother ironed clothes, he would still be curious. Squatting beside him watching.
When the sheriff grew up, he wanted to go out into the wild, and he couldn't keep him in custody, but the old people in the family were not people who liked to keep cats, and their generation didn't pay much attention to keeping cats, and they were very casual.
After the sheriff walks in the compound, he likes to provoke small dogs such as Chihuahuas or small Pekingese in the compound, and then jump to a high place to bark at the dogs that have been provoked by it. When he was tired, he squatted down, licked his paws, watched with great interest those puppies barking angrily below but couldn't help it, and then squinted and simmered sleepily.
Every time the old man in the sheriff's family sees it smack everywhere, he pats his legs happily: hey, I just like its small appearance!
Someone once suggested taking the sheriff for surgery. Like Ah Huang, Ah Huang has been more obedient since the surgery, and he has peace of mind. It's a pity that the opinions of the sheriff's family could not be unified, and it was finally settled.
As for the sheriff himself, he has nothing to worry about. Someone feeds him on time at home, he can find some natural protein as a snack outside, and he can also find other cats to move his muscles and bones.
Although the sheriff always likes to provoke other cats and dogs in the compound, including Xiaohua and Niu Zhuangzhuang, there are two he doesn't provoke, one is Big Fat and the other is Heitan. The former can't be beaten, and to provoke Big Fatty Chunsui is to die. If you really talk about Big Fatty's temper, the sheriff will definitely not get the slightest bit of goodness. As for the latter, it's just one thing to beat, and that is, Hei Tan saved it, and besides, Hei Tan's temper is not good, and the sheriff will be beaten with a claw.
The sheriff likes them to act together, have fun, and don't worry about being bullied by other cats and dogs.
Later, a cat with yellow and white flowers came to the compound. Some people called it Peanut Candy. The sheriff had a fight with it, but he didn't win. Later, he was taken by the black charcoal and went to patrol the streets with Peanut Candy. The sheriff liked it, so at the beginning, as long as he heard Peanut Candy in the big In the courtyard, it is more active than black carbon.
It was only later that Black Charcoal often ran away without a shadow, and the Sheriff himself followed Peanut Candy out a few times and never followed him again. Peanut Candy grows stronger and stronger, and fights more and more, so that as soon as Peanut Candy goes out, other cats can't avoid it. So, when Peanut Candy came back to the compound to call a friend, the sheriff pretended not to hear it, and after Peanut Candy left, it went out to fight with the cat or to provoke the little Beijing Ba and Chihuahua in the compound.
Ten years later, the sheriff no longer teases the puppy like he used to, but he is still restless. He spends half of his time in the courtyard and half of his time in the small flower garden. There are his cat friends in the courtyard. The small flowerbed has its two dog friends. For the sheriff, every day is full of fun, and you can create your own fun without it.
One day in June, the atmosphere in the compound was very strange, and the owners were also nervous, for fear that their cats would be abducted, Ah Huang was locked at home, and there were no other cats in the compound, sheriff. Still caught a gap today and slipped out.
It has not seen black charcoal for three consecutive days. It walked past that building, barked twice, looked up, and did not see a black cat's head sticking out from the balcony on the fifth floor. Only the first floor The fat man squatting on the balcony lifted his eyelids and glanced here, then continued to squat there with his eyes closed.
Seeing that the fat man didn't want to move, and he couldn't call other friends, the sheriff could only go out and have fun.
Wandering around the compound woods for two times, rolling a few times in the grass, grinding his claws, the sheriff saw a familiar object - not far from it, there was a brown thing on a low branch, this From time to time, one after another, little dots crawled out of it.
The brown things on the branches were praying mantis eggs. At this time, little mantises that were almost flesh-colored came out. Relatively speaking, the mantis eggs hatched a little later. Some places on the campus hatched in May.
The sheriff has seen those little ones, and he saw them at the small flower garden some time ago. Old man Lan didn't let them harm them. So, the sheriff, who had nothing to do, squatted in front of the short branch, tilted his head and watched curiously as the little mantises hatched. He didn't move his claws, but just watched, with the tip of his tail dangling.
I don't know how long it took, but most of the little mantises have hatched. The sheriff stretched his forearm, yawned, and raised his paw to lick it, when he suddenly found a little mantis on his paw that was moving along its forearm. climb up.
So, the idea of the sheriff licking his paws was temporarily put aside, and instead he suddenly jumped up, followed by several difficult aerial flips, jumping left and right, jumping forward and back.
Two students who came to visit the teacher in the East District compound passed by. The man in the vest pointed to the sheriff and said to his companion, "Look, the school pet is going crazy again."
The other person glanced at it, "Probably found something interesting."
The newly hatched baby praying mantises are too small to notice here.
"I'm not sure, I also saw it jumping on the lawn in front of our college last week. In order to study it, I also squatted next to it and held my phone for nearly half an hour, but I didn't see it. Why are you having so much fun!"
"… Is it playing tricks on you?"
"Who knows! I don't understand the world of snake spirit disease. Anyway, looking back now, I think I did a stupid thing, and the dean saw me doing this stupid thing!" The student in the vest grimaced, It's like doing something you can't regret.
"... The dean, did the old man talk to you about life?"
"No."
"That is not bad."
"The old man just shook his head with his hands behind his back and said, 'One is a jerk and one is an idiot.'
"… "
The two students didn't come to see it either. They felt that it was probably the same as the previous few days.
The sheriff had no idea he was causing trouble to others, and he was now immersed in his own world, having a good time.
What stopped the sheriff was a dog bark. After hearing the barking, the sheriff immediately turned his attention and looked at the iron gate that had been closed in the compound. There was a tabby dog standing by the door, and the tabby was barking at the sheriff. After that, I looked at Building B, looked around, didn't see the black cat, and turned my attention back.
The sheriff ran over, got out of the iron gate, and went to the small flower garden with the tabby dog Shunja
