Strange Life of a Cat

The cat quickly disappeared into the pine forest, and Zheng Tan was not prepared to chase it. Catching the thief was a matter for the police and Brother Walnut, and Zheng Tan was not in the mood to meddle in other people's business.

Compared with the central city, the air here is much better. There are large green forests and a lake around it. There is not much domestic sewage and laboratory wastewater being discharged indiscriminately. The environmental quality is immediately improved to a higher level. No wonder many people like to run. Come here to relax. Xiao Guo chose this place for a reason. Even a public service announcement about pets has to be carefully packaged, right? Otherwise, Xiao Guo, the vice president, would feel unable to take action.

While walking and thinking, Zheng Tan heard Charlie shouting over there, probably because he found out that Zheng Tan was not there and became anxious.

Charlie regretted it now. He thought it would be okay if he only left for five minutes, but he didn't see Zheng Tan when he came back. If this cat is lost, Charlie will never be able to survive in Chuhua City. Boss Xiao Guo will never let him go.

While Charlie and several people in the work team were eager to find Zheng Tan, Zheng Tan slowly walked out of the small pine forest.

Seeing that the cat was not lost, Charlie and the others immediately felt relieved and stopped leaving Zheng Tan's surroundings. Even if others were busy, they would not ask Charlie to be their helpers, otherwise they would also be among the sinners of the pet center if the cat was lost.

With Zheng Tan being stared at like this, it was impossible for him to be in the mood to go shopping. He lay down at the place where he was placed and took a nap. He waited for the pet dog to finish filming before following him back.

He went directly back to the pet center. Zheng Tan had to wait for a while at the pet center. Xiao Guo finished a few urgent matters before sending Zheng Tan back to the compound. Xiao Guo would not be relieved if he did not send him back in person. During this time, Zheng Tan and the several pet cats and dogs that were photographed during this outing will undergo a physical check-up.

This is a rule newly formulated by Xiao Guo to prevent cats and dogs from being infected with certain germs outside and bringing them into the pet center to infect more pets. If a pet is unwell, it can be detected in advance. After all, pets are not people, and not everyone knows how to express themselves. uncomfortable.

When Zheng Tan was undergoing examination, he happened to see a familiar face next door.

Sahara’s dog father brought her here for an injection. Sahara was probably a little sick, so during the injection, the girl buried her head in his dog father’s arms and started to moan and act coquettishly.

Zheng Tan strongly despised it.

To be numb, isn’t it just to poke a needle? Where has the usual bold courage gone?

Returning to the East District compound, he looked at the wall clock in the living room. It was only around three o'clock in the afternoon. Zheng Tan turned on the computer and checked, and found out that some cat friends in the forum complained about cats' habit of going to other people's homes and bringing things back. Someone else posted a link to a video that the cat friend secretly filmed of his cat bringing back a stuffed toy from nowhere at night.

What would happen to a cat with such "talent" if it was trained by cat trainers?

Zheng Tan couldn't guess.

Lenovo didn't dare to say anything else about the cat he saw today. The person who trained that cat would definitely not be short of money.

Someone who studied law in the forum post replied: "If it is just an animal stealing something, it is an instinctive behavior of the animal and is not considered a crime. However, the owner of the animal or the owner of the animal should bear the responsibility for the consequences caused to others due to poor management of the animal." The obligation to compensate for the reduction of property; if the animals are professionally trained and engaged in theft, it is not a crime for the animals, but for the people who command the animals, it is a typical use of animals as tools for theft, and Carrying out the act of secretly stealing other people's property and taking it as one's own, constitutes the crime of theft in the criminal law..."

There are too many discussions like this, but in real life, there is a lot of flexibility, and there are endless people who take advantage of loopholes. However, Zheng Tan just sees these things out of curiosity. As long as it doesn't happen to him or the Jiao family, Zheng Tan will I'm too lazy to spend too much time paying attention.

After turning off the computer and erasing some obvious traces, Zheng Tan came to the balcony. As soon as I walked out, I heard the guy on the fourth floor singing an opera again.

I don’t know why that bitch is obsessed with singing during this time, but Zheng Tan really doesn’t want to endure the abuse here. I really don’t know how the other people in the building can endure it. Maybe the old man and old lady in the building like this tune. ?

He slept outside for a long time today and couldn't stay idle at home. Zheng Tan finally decided to go out for a walk. When the time came, he came back just in time to pick up Xiaoyouzi.

After not going to the construction site for a long time, Zheng Tan decided to take a look. Walking by Jiao Yuan's school, Jiao Yuan's teacher was on the podium talking about the shortcomings of education in our country and criticizing exam-oriented education.

Zheng Tan swung his tail, he didn't even bother to listen to such words, just saying them was useless. Continue to trot forward.

Over at the construction site, there are still blue building enclosures around it, but the buildings built inside cannot be blocked. The progress is not bad. I hope it can be completed soon. Zheng Tan also has many places for entertainment.

While watching, Zheng Tan suddenly heard someone calling his name. He turned his head and looked over. Zhong Yan, whom he hadn't seen for a while, was walking over wearing a safety helmet and work clothes and carrying a bunch of unknown things.

Zheng Tan didn't expect to meet Zhong Yan at this time today. Calculating the time, it seemed that this child was indeed on his monthly holiday. Every holiday in the senior year of high school meant mock exams. However, Zhong Yan didn't look like he had too much trouble. A lot of pressure.

"Hey, why are you here today?"

Zhong Yan walked to the side. He had originally planned to take a rest there, but he would not have seen Zheng Tan before he arrived.

After entering the temporary rest house and getting some water, Zhong Yan found a place to sit down, drank two sips of water, handed the water from another disposable plastic cup to Zheng Tan, and then told Zheng Tan something.

"Do you know? Recently, a cat came to the construction site. It looks similar to you. It is also all black. At first, Brother Ning and the others thought it was you. It was delicious and delicious, but in the end I recognized it. ." Speaking of this, Zhong Yan was quite proud.

"That black cat usually comes here at night, walks around in a circle and then leaves. Brother Ning and the others said that there were probably rats at the construction site and attracted the cat here. But to me, that cat doesn't look like a stray cat. . That black cat is very wary and fierce. Brother Ning and the others were scratched when they were playing with it. I heard that someone on the construction site wanted to trap the cat and put it in the pot after knowing that it was not you, but they never succeeded. "

Zheng Tan didn't pay much attention to it at first. It was just a cat that looked similar to him. It was no big deal. There were plenty of black cats. However, Zhong Yan's next words made Zheng Tan feel a chill in his heart.

"Speaking of which, something happened on the construction site recently. Several people's wallets disappeared. I heard that they were drunk and didn't pay attention. Someone probably took them away. Now everyone hides their wallets well. Hey, The construction site is like this, so messy." Zhong Yan lamented.

Zheng Tan didn't know if he was overthinking it. When Zhong Yan mentioned this, Zheng Tan's first thought was to connect the black cat with the missing wallet incident.

Maybe he was overly worried. After listening to the conversation between Brother Hetao and the others that day, he also saw a cat stealing a wallet. Now when Zheng Tan heard about the lost wallet, he wondered if a cat had stolen it. Moreover, Zhong Yan had just said He said that a black cat that looked very similar to him often came here.

Regardless of whether he was overly worried or not, Zheng Tan decided to be cautious. The cat looked similar to him. If it really stole things like the cat he saw in the morning and was seen doing bad things, it would be a shame. Will it be blamed on myself?

Zheng Tan was absolutely unwilling to accept taking the blame. In order to prevent accidents, Zheng Tan decided to be wary of other black cats recently.

Zhong Yan quickly returned to work at the construction site, and Zheng Tan also walked back. At the same time, he also paid attention to the cats around him, but did not find a black cat like himself. It was probably not time yet, and the cat did not come out to move around.

On this day, after dinner, Mother Jiao was asked by her colleagues to dance in the school square. The temperature was not low now, so they did not stay in the gymnasium, but went directly to the square. There were quite a lot of teachers in the past.

Zheng Tan watched the police chief fighting with the cat in the West District compound and followed him until he was close to the square. He thought he would go directly to Jiao Mama later. Although Jiao Mama was active in the square, she was in the gymnasium. Acquaintances, bags, water glasses, etc. were all placed in the lockers of the gymnasium. Zheng Tan only had to wait at the entrance of the gymnasium.

Zheng Tan was about to walk that way when suddenly a figure ran across the road not far from the front, running from the left near the square to the green belt grove on the right.

Stopping, Zheng Tan paused for two seconds, then turned and followed.

Zheng Tan listened to the rustling sounds coming from the small forest. This was the sound made by objects running inside and rubbing against the rye grass on the ground.

Although it was night, with the help of street lights on the surrounding roads, Zheng Tan was able to see clearly what was going on in the small forest. However, Zheng Tan's sight was blocked by the rye grass that grew so well and some trees inside. Fortunately, the trees here were thick enough and spaced just right, so Zheng Tan jumped directly onto the trees and ran through the mountain of branches. This skill is not practiced in vain.

Intuition is sometimes accurate. Zheng Tan saw a cat in the rye grass not far ahead. The cat raised its head and Zheng Tan saw the wallet in its mouth, but he couldn't see the cat clearly. What color is it? I wonder if it is the black cat Zhong Yan mentioned.

Zheng Tan really didn't expect that he would encounter this kind of thing again so soon. Although he said it was none of his business, in order to avoid being slapped in the face,

Regardless of whether it was the black cat that looked very similar to him or not, Zheng Tan decided to beat it first!

Besides, Chuhua University was accepted by Zheng Tan as his own territory, and he would be embarrassed to say that he was the leader here unless he was punished!

The sound of Zheng Tan jumping on the branches was also noticed by the cat. It speeded up a little, but it was not very anxious. It probably felt that cats were not as threatening as humans.

After approaching the cat from above, Zheng Tan jumped down, rushed toward it, and gave it a paw.

The cat was photographed and rolled twice, and the wallet in its mouth fell into the rye grass. After getting up, it growled angrily at Zheng Tan several times. It seemed that it wanted to challenge him, but it still ran away quickly. opened.

Zheng Tan wanted to continue chasing, but just at this time the police chief and the cat from the West District compound came all the way here. When he saw Zheng Tan, the police chief even ran over to say hello, disturbing Zheng Tan. The cat, who was not encumbered by a wallet, escaped quickly and soon ran out of the forest and disappeared.

The police chief didn't realize that he had done something wrong. He was still a little stunned after being slapped by Zheng Tan, but he soon continued to fight with the cat in the West District Compound, all the way out of the small forest. .

After mentally scolding the sergeant for being a pig-like teammate, Zheng Tan moved his paw, raised it and sniffed. From the feel of the paw, Zheng Tan knew that the paw that jumped directly from the tree was bloody. The opponent was injured, so today was not without gain.
