When Zheng Tan returned to Jiao's house, the outer layer of hair was wet. It's been in the snow for too long, and it's snowing quite a lot when it goes out, so it's no wonder that it's not wet.
Fortunately, the hair on the body is thicker, and it can also keep warm. However, when the cold wind blew outside, Zheng Tan couldn't help shivering.
Seeing Zheng Tan coming back with wet hair on his body, Xiaoyouzi quickly took out the hair dryer to blow Zheng Tan's hair.
"The snow is so thick outside, and I didn't see any other cats in the compound, so we went out for a walk in the black charcoal." Jiao Yuan said.
"And the Sahara."
Just as he was talking, there was a barking sound from downstairs, and Zheng Tan could clearly hear it, that was the cry of Sahara. However, the cry at this time was obviously out of breath, far less than the high-spirited fighting spirit when he went out to celebrate.
Jiao Yuan smiled and immediately opened the living room window to look at the building diagonally opposite. Xiaoyouzi also brought a low stool over, took off his slippers and stepped on the low stool to see the situation outside the window.
Zheng Tan was also a little curious, and jumped up on the windowsill to look at the side where the dog barking came.
The dog barking downstairs in the building diagonally opposite was Sahara. At the same time, on the balcony on the second floor of the building, Ruan Ying, the grandson of Academician Ruan, was standing there, leaning against the railing of the balcony, drinking a bowl of kelp and pork ribs soup in his hand, smashing his mouth while drinking it. , said to the dog downstairs licking its mouth and stomping on: "You run, try running again, tonight's bone soup is not yours!"
"Wang Wang... Wang Wang Wang..." There was also a whimper in the call, which was obviously weak, and wanted to go upstairs to chew on bones, but could not enter the door.
Sahara's big foot patted the big iron gate at the access control, patted it, and then retracted its claws. It remembered that this big iron gate could not be slapped indiscriminately, and it would have to be slapped once when he returned home.
At the end of "Wang", Sahara squatted in front of the iron gate, and made a flat whine from his nasal cavity. He opened his mouth twice, yawned, and raised his mouth twice.
It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that its owner opened the door and let it in, and let it squat outside for a longer time, fearing it would get sick.
As soon as he entered the door, Sahara, who was stunned and squeaked, immediately returned to blood, and his big tail swung hard, and the one who went upstairs was still jumping.
Like Jiao Yuan and the others, there are many people in the courtyard watching the play. Depending on the direction of the residents, some are watching from their balconies, and some are looking out from the side bed or the living room window. Sometimes there are people booing. Someone asked Sahara to come over to their house just now to gnaw at the bones, but Sahara still had a little bit of backbone, just moved his butt, and he was unshakable.
Jiao Yuanzheng was talking about the difference between raising a dog and raising a cat in the scene just now, when he suddenly heard the sound of sneezing next to him.
Zheng Tan took a breath, and after a few seconds, he couldn't help but "sneezed" again.
Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyouzi stared at Zheng Tan. After Zheng Tan sneezed twice, Jiao Yuan shouted to Jiao's mother in the bedroom, "Mom, Heitan seems to have a cold!!"
"What?! Got a cold?!" Jiao Ma immediately put down her work and came over in slippers.
Zheng Tan also had a bad premonition, did he really catch a cold
"Would you like to take your temperature?" Xiaoyouzi asked.
Take your temperature
Zheng Tan thought about seeing some pets with thermometers inserted in the pet center, and shivered. Paralysis, do not insert the back door to measure the temperature! !
Jiao's mother didn't understand this situation either. After thinking about it, she called Xiao Guo.
"Cold? Is it conjunctival congestion? Are there tears in the eyes or a lot of mucus?" Xiao Guo on the other end of the phone asked.
"None of these."
"How about eating?"
"It's not dinner time yet, I don't know."
"You can take a temperature first, but if you take it yourself at home, you can use the method of measuring the temperature of the base of your hind legs, which is more convenient..."
Zheng Tan jumped onto the desk and pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation between Jiao Ma and Xiao Guo on the phone. Zheng Tan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that rectal temperature measurement was not required.
After Mama Jiao made the call, she found the thermometer and shook it. When she turned around, she saw that Zheng Tan was already lying there on his side, his tail tucked tightly, and he lifted one hind leg.
Jiao's mother couldn't help laughing. When other cats took their temperature, they had to do some "foreplay" to comfort them. Now it's her own cat's turn. Needless to say, it's already posing by itself.
Zheng Tan's idea is that as long as rectal temperature measurement is not used, everything else will do!
However, it seems that this is also exposed... Forget it, it is not that it has not been exposed. Who made himself a cat now? Don't be too pretentious, there are plenty of cats wandering around on the road.
Jiao's mother placed the prepared thermometer on the connection between Zheng Tan's hind legs and abdominal wall, and waited for Zheng Tan to maintain the temperature measurement position for about 5 minutes before Jiao's mother took out the thermometer.
"Thirty-nine degrees." Jiao Ma frowned. According to Xiao Guo, it seems to be a little higher.
The results of this method of measuring body temperature will be lower, so Xiao Guo gave various range standards for this method. After all, the normal body temperature of cats is higher than that of humans, so the standards are also different.
Jiao Ma called Xiao Guo again and talked about the temperature measurement.
"That shouldn't be a big problem, you can give it some children's granules and see it tomorrow." Xiao Guo was relieved on the phone, and there were some Chinese New Year advertisements behind him waiting for the cat to sit in town. Otherwise, relying on the few in the store alone, it is estimated that a lot of food will be wasted.
After getting Xiao Guo's statement, several people felt at ease. Jiao's mother poured some children's granules, and she didn't need to find a syringe to feed it, so Zheng Tan drank it himself.
Cats are no better than humans, and Zheng Tan didn't want to make his current self half-dead.
During dinner, the Jiao family all paid attention to Zheng Tan's meal. Seeing that his appetite was still so much, the people at the dinner table became more at ease.
With such a large appetite, he should not be seriously ill.
In the evening, Jiao's mother suggested that Zheng Tan stay on the sofa to sleep. Although he had never heard of cats passing colds to humans, it would be better to take precautions. SARS in 2003 made many people alert.
It's not that she dislikes Zheng Tan or anything. Jiao's mother also feels sorry for Zheng Tan. She has prepared a sleeping place on the sofa. In addition to Xiaoyouzi's woolen cloak, there is also a woolen sweater from Jiao's mother. Zheng Tan Absolutely not freezing.
Zheng Tan himself didn't want to spread the disease to other people, so let's make do with it on the sofa first. If the cold gets really serious and contagious, it's not good to infect others.
Shortly after the lights were turned off, Xiaoyouzi opened the door and whispered to Zheng Tan to enter the room to sleep.
Zheng Tan didn't move, just rolled around and made some noise in response. Everything is just in case, if he really infects Xiaoyuzi with a cold, Zheng Tan must feel that he is guilty.
Xiaoyouzi barked a few times, and seeing that Zheng Tan had just turned over, but was not ready to get off the sofa, Xiaoyouzi walked over gently, put his hand on Zheng Tan, and made sure that the cat under his command was breathing strong and steady, and then did it. Go back to the room to sleep.
Not long after Xiaoyouzi entered, Jiao Yuan did the same thing.
On the other side of the bedroom, Jiao's mother put her ear against the door to listen to the movement in the living room.
"Both children have returned to the room?" Jiao Dad asked softly.
"Well. They're all back... I'll go out and have a look." With that said, Mom Jiao walked out of the door and touched the sofa lightly.
Zheng Tan didn't even bother to open his eyelids this time, he just took a nap, three people came for half an hour.
Early in the morning, when Zheng Tan was still sleeping, Jiao's mother came to take his temperature. When Zheng Tan sleeps, he forms a circle, which is not a good position to measure body temperature.
Seeing Zheng Tan open her eyes, Jiao Ma put the thermometer and patted Zheng Tan's head, "Good boy, go to sleep and take your temperature."
Zheng Tan: "..." I'm not a child!
A few minutes later, Jiao Ma looked at the degree displayed on the thermometer, and finally showed a smile on her face.
"Looks like it should be fine."
In fact, whether the cold is getting better or not, Zheng Tan knows that he took some medicine and fell asleep. Now he is much more relaxed, and his nose is not as uncomfortable as it was yesterday.
After stretching, Zheng Tan jumped off the sofa and went to the toilet to pee in the morning.
Looking at Zheng Tan's figure entering the toilet, Jiao's mother said to Jiao's father, "Why doesn't Black Charcoal's tail ever stick up?"
Other cats would put their tails up when they were in a good mood, but Zheng Tan never.
Zheng Tan usually placed his tail diagonally downwards, and when it was about to hit the ground, the tip of his tail turned up a little more.
There are many black cats in the world, but the people in the Jiao family feel that their black cats are very different from other black cats, and they are easy to recognize when put together. Because of the small movements unique to their own black cats, familiar people can distinguish them at a glance. .
"Never mind, no one stipulates that a cat's tail must be upturned. Besides, our black charcoal is very sensible... It's just that he has a bad temper occasionally." Jiao Dad said.
After urinating, Zheng Tan didn't feel sleepy for a while, jumped onto the living room window sill and looked outside.
The sun came out. I watched TV last night. The weather forecast said that it would not snow in the next few days. This year is almost over. It is estimated that there will be no more snow, and there may even be no snow behind.
The family compound was still white yesterday. Today, Zheng Tan had already swept out the aisles when he was looking at it. It was not necessarily the uncle of the guard or the person in charge of cleaning. Many people in the family compound would not be able to come out to sweep the snow.
The Jiao family has not had so many guests in the past two days, so Zheng Tan stayed at home for two days just in case, without going out. It wasn't until the third day, when Jiao's family came to visit again, that Zheng Tan went out for a walk.
I haven't been out for two days, and I still feel uncomfortable. After coming out, Zheng Tan felt his whole body stretched out.
After climbing down a tree in the woods and recovering his body, Zheng Tan walked out without seeing Ah Huang and the sheriff, so he walked directly outside the school gate.
Zheng Tan still walked towards the place where the kitten was buried. When he went to see it, there were footprints of people and cats. It should be the uncle and the white female cat.
The female cat is still alive and follows the uncle. Even if the uncle's conditions are not as good as the family who moved away, at least there are people who care about her, and that's enough.
After the weather cleared, there were more pedestrians and vehicles on the road, which seemed very lively.
Zheng Tan walked along the familiar road and came to the alley in the old building area. He happened to see the tattooed man in a thick down jacket wandering out of the alley. When he bumped into someone, he scolded him directly, regardless of whether he walked by himself or not. caused by the shape.
Zheng Tan hid in the corner and watched him leave.
The tattooed man also has a job, helping others to watch the scene, being a younger brother, and there are several shift points every week, and today is his only one in a week. It is estimated that after the past, I will still find a corner and continue to sleep on my stomach. From that, I know that I must have watched a love action movie too late last night and consumed too much energy.
After the tattooed man walked away, Zheng Tan climbed over the fence from the backyard of the class in the old building district while no one was there.
The tattooed man lives on the first floor. The first floor has a large area. The tattooed man also uses a fence to enclose a piece of land. It was originally a public area for drying quilts, but he also occupied it. People around him have said about him, but not only was it ineffective, but he was intimidated.
The doors and windows were closed tightly, but not on the kitchen side. There's a broken window in the kitchen that looks like it's been a while but hasn't been repaired.
Zheng Tan entered through the broken window, being careful not to scratch himself on the broken glass.
After entering, Zheng Tan took a look at the small kitchen. It was not very large, and garbage was piled up everywhere. Appears narrower. There are many disposable tableware around, and there are instant noodle boxes that have not been thrown away.
There is a layer of stains on the stovetop, and a dark layer on the ground has solidified. It is estimated that it will not be clean if you don't scrape hard.
There was no gas jar, and the iron pan was rusted. Zheng Tan looked at it. In the entire kitchen, only the microwave was used the most.
No wonder the windows in the kitchen have not been repaired for a long time, and the kitchen is not used very much.
The kitchen door was closed, Zheng Tan listened to the movement outside, and once again made sure that no one was in the room, he jumped up and flipped the door handle.
The area of each household in the old building area is not large, about 60 to 70 square meters. There are clutter in the living room, and a motorcycle. The brightest thing in the room is probably the motorcycle, and it can be seen that the owner often scrubs. Other than that, the rest of the place is full of all kinds of clutter and rubbish.
The unfinished takeaway on the table has not been cleaned up, and the rice grains on the ground have been dried and stuck to the floor.
As for the bedroom, some magazines were thrown randomly on the floor of the room, and every magazine cover was a big girl in scantily clad. The calendar hanging on the wall by the bed is also in this style.
There are many things on the bedside table, the ashtray is full, and there are many cigarette butts on the ground. In contrast to this environment, there is also a gift box of tea and a purple clay pot on the table.
There is a card on the hardcover gift box with a blessing, but it is not the name of the tattooed man. It looks like it is given to the old man. As for why the tattooed man is here, it is unknown, and it is estimated that it is not obvious. means.
After turning around for a while, Zheng Tan didn't move the things here, he went back along the original road, closed the kitchen door, came out through the broken window, and climbed the wall to leave when no one was there.
There is a small restaurant not far from the alley in the old building area. It is estimated that he knew that the surrounding area was going to be demolished, and the boss also planned to relocate the storefront, so there were fewer things. However, the business during the Chinese New Year period is still good. Now many people will call a small restaurant to order food for delivery, or book a private room directly after visiting guests at home. The restaurant owner made a lot of money on New Year's Eve.
The kitchen is next to the main building of the hotel, and there are many people washing and cooking vegetables.
"A case of beer in the sixteenth private room!"
"Okay, send it right away!"
A waiter in a hotel uniform walked into the warehouse where the wine was stored, but when he was moving the wine, he found that there was one less bottle of beer in the box. Originally there were twelve bottles, but now there are only eleven bottles.
Did someone steal the drink? Forget it, don't care about it, even if someone steals it, it doesn't matter to him if he offends him.
So the waiter chose another full case of twelve bottles of beer and moved out.
After knowing that the store will be relocated, the management here is not as strict as before. In addition, the business in the store is not over yet, and sometimes it is chaotic. .
Therefore, the people who came into the warehouse at the back saw the box that was missing a bottle of beer, and they thought the same as the people in front, and no one made it clear.
