Strange Life of a Cat

When Xiong Xiong came back, he looked at the scratched paint on his newly bought bicycle, and he wanted to cry without tears. He touched the place where the paint was peeled off, but there was nothing he could do. Could he still blame the big cat? ?

Still, it's better to have a few patches of paint knocked off than to have your car stolen. Thinking of this, Xiong Xiong suddenly felt a little better.

Xiong Xiong's pursuit is progressing well. On weekends, he even invites people to go to the movies. Although it's not a two-person time, it's just a group, but it's also progress, isn't it?

It's rare for Zheng Tan to stay at home on weekends, and he didn't go to help Xiong Xiong look after the car, so he had a good weekend.

On this day, Zheng Tan took a walk in the school and had a good weekend at home. After Xiaoyouzi came back, the atmosphere at home was different and much more lively. However, after two days, Xiaoyouzi had to leave again.

On other people's workdays and study days, Zheng Tan has always been bored most of the time.

After jogging around along the main road of the campus, when walking back slowly, Zheng Tan heard someone calling him, turned his head to look over, and found that it was Xiao Jiu.

I haven't seen Xiao Jiu for a long time. Zheng Tan hasn't seen her twice since she was promoted to high school like Xiao Youzi, and I always meet no one when I go to the overpass. Moreover, Xiao Jiu is not in Chu Huafu Middle School goes to school, but in another high school, which is far away from here. It takes half an hour to take a taxi, and Zheng Tan can't go there on weekdays.

However, today is not a rest day, and this time should also be the time for classes. High school students do not have the same class schedule as college students. From this point of view, Xiao Jiu skipped class again.

Xiao Jiu waved to Zheng Tan, "Heitan, let's talk."

Because she often came here when she was in middle school, Xiao Jiu is no stranger to the campus of Chuhua University. She knows which places are crowded and which places are almost empty.

Zheng Tan followed Xiao Jiu to a secluded place. Xiao Jiu was sitting on the edge of a circular flower bed. Zheng Tan also jumped up and squatted beside him, waiting for Xiao Jiu to speak. Generally, Xiao Jiu would not come here on purpose if there was nothing to do, so Zheng Tan wanted to know why Xiao Jiu came here today.

Sure enough, Xiao Jiu looked around and after confirming that there was no one there, she said, "Heitan, I'm leaving."

Zheng Tan: "?!!"

Xiaojiu’s study arrangement is indeed different from others’. She has a strong purpose, knows what she will do in the future, and knows what skills she must learn. Some things taught in school are actually not helpful to her. It is considered big, but it is impossible to drop out of school, she still has to learn, but she has a special person to teach.

But this time, Xiao Jiu just wanted to leave with his teacher to study in some places, and also to see more things. She doesn't like wasting time. Her early experience had a great influence on her. Now the intensive study at school is very stressful for her. She is not a top student and goes to school late. It is difficult to accept some knowledge points. Of course, this is also because she is not interested in those things. Interested people are motivated. Master Kun did not force her to study those textbooks that she is not interested in. Therefore, according to the small Jiu's interest direction, arranged people, took Xiao Jiu to study in other provinces and cities, and saw what she was interested in. Although there was no class, someone would teach knowledge in normal times.

Master Kun doesn't raise trash. You can have no diploma, but you can't have no ability. For Xiaojiu and the others, after a few years, when people of the same age set foot in society with immaturity and freshness, she is already able to hold up a small piece of sky by herself.

That was a completely different world from Xiaoyuzi's, and it was her own choice. Zheng Tan couldn't refute anything, nor would he influence Xiao Jiu's thoughts.

"It's the first year of high school now, and my exclusive teacher said that I will be released for two years. When I am in the third year of high school, I will also take the college entrance examination in other provinces, and then I will come back to the university..." Xiao Jiu continued.

This is not the first time Zheng Tan has heard of taking advantage of the loophole in the college entrance examination, and he has seen it a lot. Because this province is a province with a large number of students, the scores and competitiveness of the college entrance examination every year are higher than most provinces in the country. Therefore, some people who are wandering in the middle and lower reaches will go through some ways at home to arrange for them to take the exam in provinces that are not very competitive. In this way, relatively speaking, they have a greater chance of being admitted to a better university.

Obviously, Lord Kun also put a lot of thought into Xiao Jiu.

However, it has been more than two years since Xiao Jiu left, and during these two years, Zheng Tan will not see Xiao Jiu anymore.

Xiao Jiu came here today just to have a good talk with Zheng Tan, otherwise she won't be able to see each other after leaving, and she plans to go to Chuhua High School to see Xiaoyouzi later, and even bought candy. Xiao Jiu always remembered the incident of Xiaoyouzi giving candy back then, and even though she was not at the attached high school, she knew people in the attached middle school who could ask them to take care of Xiaoyuzi, so don't take it seriously just because she left.

Zheng Tan listened to Xiao Jiu's words and thought: Is this the transformation from a little girl to a big sister?

After talking about her own affairs for a while, recalling the past and looking forward to the future, Xiao Jiu looked around again to make sure no one was coming, and whispered to Zheng with a gossip look: "Heitan, you know that Master Kun's men Thirteen Taibao?"

Thirteen Taibao?

This word is indeed familiar, Zheng Tan recalled it, he once saw a picture in Master Kun's study, on it was written the four big characters "Thirteen Taibao", and it was written very imposingly. Zheng Tan remembered that at that time he still wondered why the blind old man didn't write some more domineering words or write more pretentious words like "forbearance" and "killing".

In addition, when Zheng Tan used to hang out with Ye Hao and the others, he heard them talk about this word. Ye Hao and the others seemed to be very afraid, and mentioned that one of the reasons why many people are jealous of Lord Kun is because of his subordinates. Thirteen Taibao.

Xiao Jiu said in a low voice: "I heard that the Thirteenth Taibao was organized by Grandpa Kun when he was young. Thirteen people, thirteen killers, helped Master Kun to deal with those who were blacklisted. But now I don't hear much about it. , The people inside seem to have changed a few batches, and this is what my teacher said. Unfortunately, I have never seen any of the thirteen people."

"By the way," Xiao Jiu thought of something, and sighed to Zheng, "I heard that one of the thirteen people was named Hei Mao. Heitan, tell me, does that person look like a cat? Really? See you."

Zheng Tan slandered: He absolutely doesn't want to meet someone like a killer. As soon as he hears about this profession, he knows that he is not a good person, cold and cold. If he knew who the killer was, he would definitely stay away from it.

Xiao Jiu is really getting more and more courageous.

After chatting, Xiao Jiu looked at the time, and was about to rush to the attached high school. At this time, he passed by, just in time for the attached high school to have lunch after class.

Zheng Tan came back after seeing Xiao Jiu on the bus, and ran into Xiong Xiong who was riding a bicycle within two steps. This child seemed very happy today.

"Heitan, do me another favor today! Hey, maybe after today is over, we will be there!"

Zheng Tan stopped and looked at Xiong Xiong. The smile on this guy's face is so silly, if the woman really accepts Xiong Xiong, will this guy smile even more silly?

Anyway, since it was a critical time, Zheng Tan must help.

The time Xiong Xiong said was around four o'clock in the afternoon, plus more than an hour spent, he should be able to catch up with dinner at home.

After telling the time, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Zheng Tan saw Xiong Xiong dressed up. His hair was trimmed and arranged into a punk hairstyle. He knew that he went to the shampoo shop to get it done in the afternoon. When Zheng Tan was watching TV with Jiao's mother yesterday, there was a star on TV who had this hairstyle and was severely criticized by Jiao's mother. Zheng Tan was very embarrassed at the time, because he used to like to cut this hairstyle. He didn't think about it today In the afternoon, I saw Xiong Xiong with this hairstyle again. I don't know if Mother Jiao would feel anything when she saw it. It is estimated that the generation gap will be serious.

Xiong Xiong was always smiling, and at the same time he was a little nervous. From time to time, this guy rubbed his palms on his pants to wipe off his sweat. It's winter, and when many people wear padded jackets and thick sweaters, this guy can actually sweat from nervousness. Zheng Tan despised it in his heart.

It's just a confession to make an appointment, but are you so nervous?

Still at the flower shop, Xiong Xiong took the reserved flowers and left in the car. Zheng Tan squatted on the car seat and helped watch the car.

Afraid that Zheng Tan would feel cold, Xiong Xiong put a down vest in the basket, and if Zheng Tan was cold, he could squat in the basket of the car. With Zheng Tan around, Xiong Xiong is not afraid of his vest being stolen. Of course, even if the vest is stolen, as long as the confession succeeds again today, it is still quite a bargain in Xiong Xiong's view.

Because today's time is different from the previous days, when Zheng Tan stayed here, he didn't see the young man with the bag on his back waiting for the bus. Coincidentally, I didn't see the big tabby cat either, so don't worry.

Zheng Tan squatted on the car seat, watching the passing pedestrians and vehicles on the road.

As time passed, it got dark early in winter. It was already dark at 5:30 in the afternoon, and it was completely dark by 6:00, but Xiong Xiong never appeared.

As soon as the evening wind blows, Zheng Tan trembles, but he doesn't want to jump into the basket, so he continues to squat on the car seat, scolding Xiong Xiong in his heart: It's still an hour, it's almost two hours now! I am freezing now, and I have to be trained when I go back late. When Xiong Xiong comes back, he must make a good fortune! !

Yawning, Zheng Tan looked far away on the road, every time a taxi drove by, Zheng Tan stared at it without blinking, hoping to see that taxi pull over, and then that funny guy Xiong Xiong appeared . Unfortunately, I am disappointed every time.

In the distance, because a section of the road is being repaired, it is not smooth, and the headlights of passing vehicles appear a little bumpy. The flying dust is not as obvious in the dark night as it is in the daytime, but it makes the light of the headlights seem to be covered with a layer of fog. A layer of fog that won't disperse in the wind.

Sneezing, Zheng Tan jumped out of the car and moved around a bit, looking around.

Because there were too many people in the shop, the big tabby cat was probably annoyed by the teasing. It was going to come out to breathe, but when it reached the door, it paused, shrank itself, shook its paws, and looked around, as if hesitating Whether to go out to suffer from the cold or not, I finally took a step, one ear was paying attention to the movement on the road, while the other ear turned towards the alley next to the restaurant.

Suddenly, it seemed to find something.

A rat emerged from the square sewer cover at the side of the alley.

The big tabby cat suddenly became excited. After sweeping away the laziness just now, all the muscles in its body seemed to tense up. When the mouse didn't notice, it quickly moved to a more hidden corner, bent down, and was ready to go.

Somebody spilled the rice by the side of the alley, the mouse sniffed there, looked around vigilantly, but no one came, and it didn't find the big tabby cat hiding in the corner. It felt safe for the time being, and then it hugged a piece and started to eat.

The tabby cat approached the prey on tiptoe, and before the mouse could react, the tabby cat rushed over. Don't look at many cats who are fat, but sometimes they have flexibility that doesn't match their figure.

Meow Star Shadowless Claw!

After slapping continuously, the tabby cat trapped the mouse and then bit it down.

There was a miserable cry of mice in the alley, but soon, the sound disappeared.

A girl just came out of a restaurant with a packed box lunch. When she entered the alley, she found a big tabby cat next to her, so she decided to go and tease her as usual.

But when she approached, the tabby cat suddenly looked up at the girl.

There was still blood on her mouth, she was biting a somewhat mutilated mouse, and the coldness and murderous look in her eyes had not dissipated, which successfully made the girl stop in her tracks.

The winter evening wind blew, and the loose scarf did not block the cold wind. The girl shrank her neck, tightened the scarf, and walked away quickly.

Probably, she didn't expect that the lazy and kind-hearted big tabby cat that she always saw would have such eyes.

At the same time, on a nearby street, passers-by were hurrying to and fro on the sidewalk. A middle-aged man in a high-end leather jacket with well-combed hair was walking among them. He was talking on the phone while holding a mobile phone in his hand. .

A young man passing by looked over curiously, and happened to meet the glance of the middle-aged man.

"Look at your uncle, look!"

The middle-aged man suddenly kicked over, kicked the young man to the ground, and then glanced at the people around him, "What are you looking at?! Look at me and dig out your eyeballs!"

The people around didn't dare to say more when they saw this. This person is not easy to mess with at first sight. If I say one more thing, maybe this lunatic person will kick me over. I didn't see that young man lying down with his stomach covered. Can't get up on the ground?

Ignoring the young man who was kicked on the ground, the middle-aged man continued to walk and call while holding the phone, swearing some obscene words in his mouth.

A young man with a bag passed the middle-aged man. He was similar to many passers-by, nothing special about him.

After passing the middle-aged man, the young man with the bag seemed to feel cold, breathed out on his hands, and put it in his pocket.

Then, there was a commotion not far behind him. The middle-aged man who kicked someone with a phone and swears fell to the ground. He didn't respond to the people around him. Screaming, passers-by yelling to call the police.

And the young man with the bag on his back turned a corner and walked into an alley. When he reached the other end of the alley, he saw the big tabby cat squatting next to it and licking its paws. There was also the remains of a mouse beside the big tabby cat. .

Sensing someone approaching, the tabby cat raised its head vigilantly, and saw that it was an acquaintance, the tabby cat returned to its usual closeness, meowed a few times, and took the initiative to go over and rub the young man's trousers.

Cats can always switch between cute and killer.

The young man leaned over and picked up the tabby cat. Taking advantage of the dim light nearby, he took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped the cat's mouth. He didn't think the cat was dirty. He carried the cat to the door of the restaurant, and When he was about to go in, he saw Zheng Tan squatting on the car seat, and was taken aback, obviously he didn't expect to meet him at this time.

After being surprised, the other party smiled and waved to Zheng Tan, then walked into the restaurant, sat on an empty seat near the door, ordered food and started playing with the big cat again.

"Heitan! I'm sorry I'm late!" Xiong Xiong got out of a taxi with a smile like a morning glory, afraid that others would not know that he had a happy event.

Zheng Tan didn't move, just looked at him quietly.

"Okay, you've worked hard, let's go, please go to Jiao Wei's restaurant for hot soup! We'll make whatever you want!" Xiong Xiong said boldly.

That's about the same. Zheng Tan jumped out of the car seat, intending to leave. As long as Xiong Xiong goes to Jiao Wei's restaurant together, he can explain why Zheng Tan is late for dinner, and Jiao Wei's parents will also contact Jiao's family, so that Zheng Tan will not be scolded.

Before leaving, Zheng Tan looked at the young man carrying the bag again, who just happened to look up, raised his hand and smiled and shouted "bye" to Zheng Tan.

Zheng Tan turned his head and shook his beard. He always felt that the man was a bit strange, but apart from knowing that this man was clingy to cats, he couldn't see anything.

Forget it, who cares, he's just a passerby anyway.
