Strange Life of a Cat

It’s really pretending!

Zheng Tan looked at the people below through the gap between the wooden boards.

When the three people came in just now, Zheng Tan only thought that the tied man belonged to the kind of rich second generation who was immature and had the temper of a child. In addition, he was crying with tears and runny nose after being beaten just now. With such a large amount of appearance, anyone would think that he is a loser and a loser.

Not everyone can cry like this when they want to. Comparing the huge contrast before and after, Zheng Tan felt that this person could win the Little Golden Man Award.

Moreover, regardless of his acting skills, I really didn’t expect this person to be able to hide so deeply. The tied rope was easily untied when Zheng Tan didn't pay attention. This is not something ordinary people can do. At the same time, since he could get rid of the rope so quickly, how could he be beaten so badly that he was so embarrassed? ?

Either he is a ruthless person, or he is a psychopath.

Zheng Tan stared at the people below. The people below were also chewing the steamed buns in their hands and staring at the place where Zheng Tan was.

"Who are you?" the man asked, "Maybe we can cooperate. I'm not interested in that batch of goods. If you want it, I'll give you that batch of goods."

Zheng Tan had no idea what the "goods" the man was talking about did not refer to the batch of inferior food Zheng Tan had seen. However, it can also be inferred that Brother Walnut’s goal is probably the so-called “goods”.

So, if this person is not here for those goods, why is he here?

Seeing that there was no movement or response from above, the man stuffed the last bit of steamed bun into his mouth, wiped his hands on the blue cotton coat, then jumped on the desk beside him and pushed the wooden ceiling with his hand.

Zheng Tan quickly left the place when he made a move, left the area of ​​​​the room, hid behind a log, and listened to the movement over there.

The man didn't seem to intend to push the wooden ceiling away and get out. After a while, Zheng Tan heard the door lock ring. Looking down through the slit, I saw that the door that was closed to the man was opened a crack. This was also the largest gap that could be opened before the door was unlocked. The man stretched out two fingers, holding something between them, towards the keyhole of the lock.

Having seen Er Mao pick locks, Zheng Tan was not so surprised when he saw this man's behavior. There are still many capable people in this world.

In a few seconds, the man opened the lock, came out of the room, looked around, and then searched the surrounding rooms one by one.

Zheng Tan didn't know what he was looking for. He was quite curious, so he followed him from above. He didn't follow too closely, so Zheng Tan was more on guard against that person. With that kind of skill, he should be no worse than Er Mao. This person was even more hidden than Er Mao, so Zheng Tan had to be on guard.

After searching several rooms, the man entered the room where goods were piled. The door lock was easy for him.

Zheng Tan saw the man rummaging through the opened boxes, then opened a box sealed with tape, rummaged inside again, took out a bag of "XX milk tea", and tore a small opening. He sniffed it and then tasted it slightly.

Zheng Tan looked at the man's movements and guessed, could there be something else inside?

And those low-quality foods are just a cover for these things?

As for what the man was holding just now, could it be some illegal "drugs"?

If so, then those on the mountain are probably responsible for production. No wonder Brother Walnut wants to take the risk.

The man changed his angle, with his back to Zheng Tan. Zheng Tan couldn't see what the man was doing with his hands. After about a minute, the man looked up to where Zheng Tan was and asked in a low voice. He said to himself: "Who are you?" When he was pushing the wooden ceiling, he found that the wooden ceiling was relatively fragile and could not bear the weight of an adult human being. In addition, he could move freely on it. It was really not like that. It's something humans can do.

After the man found something, he didn't stay long and went downstairs.

Zheng Tan waited for a while, but didn't hear any movement below. He opened the wooden ceiling and went downstairs carefully.

Although he didn't hear any noise just now, after going downstairs, Zheng Tan saw a person lying there at the top of the stairs. He was still breathing, but his hands were tied up. The rope used to tie them was the same as when the red-haired person was tied up. rope.

Stretching his head and looking around, Zheng Tan walked over and took a look in each room. On the first floor, apart from a few bedrooms, the kitchen, and the toilet, there was also the monitoring room. There was a person lying in the bedroom, who was also tied up. There, intuition was lost. As for the person in the gray coat lying on the ground in the monitoring room, these three people had one thing in common, they were all beaten very hard on the face. As for whether they were beaten hard in other places, Zheng Tan could not tell yet.

The red-haired man was tinkering in the control room with a USB flash drive. Soon, the man pulled out the USB flash drive and stood up, walked out, took out an earphone from somewhere, listened to something, then frowned and looked at the mountain, but his feet were moving faster.

The man had already put on his leather jacket again and was about to leave.

However, before taking a few steps, the man suddenly stopped and pulled out a dagger, which he had just taken in the house.

Zheng Tan was originally looking out of a window on the first floor. When he realized something was wrong, he immediately ran out.

A figure rushed towards the red-haired man from the side. The red-haired man was also ready to swing his knife, but another black figure rushed out and blocked him in the middle.

Heijin was forced to stop midway and looked at Zheng Tan in confusion, not quite understanding why the cat was stopping him.

The red-haired man looked at the black cat in the middle and maintained his previous actions. After a few seconds, he retracted the dagger and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is that you on the board?"

Zheng Tan tugged his ears and stared at the opponent closely. He had no doubt that if Heijin had really pounced on him, he would have been killed by the sword by now. However, Heijin was still roaring from behind, seemingly unwilling to pounce on him again.

Zheng Tan wanted to turn around and slap Heijin to make this guy calm down, but unfortunately he didn't dare to take his eyes away from the person opposite him. This could be seen from the fact that several people in the room were put down without a sound. In terms of human skills, he didn't kill anyone, maybe because he didn't want to cause more lawsuits involving human lives, but not killing people doesn't mean he won't kill dogs or cats.

This man did have murderous intent towards Heijin just now, but Zheng Tan didn't feel the murderous intent from the way the other person stared at him, but more of a look and curiosity.

The man stared at Zheng Tan for a while, then played with the dagger in his hand, took it back, turned and left.

After watching the man leave, Zheng Tan breathed a sigh of relief.

He listened around and didn't notice anyone approaching, so Zheng Tan walked back to the house.

Heijin hesitated for a moment, but still followed. For him, it's more about obedience. It's really rare that the black cat always goes its own way, but now there is no better choice for Heijin, so he might as well follow it.

Zheng Tan had already seen it when he came out of the house. All the cameras there could be turned off. As for the people in the house, Zheng Tan didn't know when they would wake up. It would be troublesome if I woke up now, so I had to do something.

After looking at them one by one, Zheng Tan grabbed the trouser leg of the man who fell at the stairs and dragged him to the other side of the house. There was a bedroom with someone lying in it. Zheng Tan decided to throw them all here and then closed the door. , even if they woke up, they still couldn't get out for a while.

Seeing this, Heijin also bit the trouser leg of the other person who was lying in the monitoring room, and followed Zheng Tan to drag him there.

Seeing someone showing signs of waking up, Zheng Tan looked for it, hugged a wooden chair next to him and knocked towards the person.

Boom!

The person who almost opened his eyelids in confusion fainted again.

Zheng Tan searched for the three people, took out a bunch of keys, touched the lock, and locked the door.

Kurogane was squatting next to him, watching the black cat jumping up and down in front of him. He didn't fully understand what the cat was doing, but he felt that what the cat did should be right.

Moving his ears, Heijin looked in one direction. After locking the door, Zheng Tan also looked at the door.

They didn't close the door to this house when they came in. Now that Hei Jin was a little closer to the door, he noticed the movement outside before Zheng Tan.

There was wind blowing in from outside, and Heijin also smelled the scent of the person outside the door.

"Woof!" Heijin shouted.

Zheng Tan's nervousness dissipated as soon as he saw Heijin wagging his tail.

really.

After Kurogane shouted, a head poked through the door. It's Ermao.

"Damn it! Why are you two here?!"

Er Mao came down the mountain from another route and did not pass by the place where Hei Jin was waiting when he came, so he didn't know that Hei Jin and Zheng Tan were no longer there. He just heard the noise inside, and he also I was wondering how many people were inside, especially when I heard the "dong" sound, and I was wondering if some unlucky guy was being interrogated inside, but I didn't expect it to be these two guys.

Seeing Er Mao, Hei Jin was in a good mood, wagging his tail vigorously, and looked behind Er Mao, but he didn't see the person he was looking for.

"Senior brother is still on the mountain. There is still action to be taken. Let's just wait here. Reinforcements will arrive soon." Er Mao touched Hei Jin's head. This time, Hei Jin rarely avoided it.

Hearing Er Mao say this, Zheng Tan stretched himself. His nerves had been tense, but now he relaxed.

Er Mao pried open the lock and looked at the three people locked inside by Zheng Tan just now. The ropes were tied very professionally. Looking at the injuries on the three people's bodies, it was impossible for a cat and a dog to cause such a result.

"Is there anyone else?" Er Mao asked.

Heijin looked outside the door and then at Ermao.

"Leaved? Forget it." Er Mao checked the surrounding monitors, opened them again, and closed the door.

The reinforcements that Er Mao mentioned arrived soon, and they were all fully armed, making people feel nervous just looking at them. Zheng Tan only saw some people, and the other part was cooperating with the actions of the people on the mountain.

Since there was a dedicated person to deal with it, Ermao no longer stayed in one place and looked upstairs and downstairs.

When he saw Ermao rummaging through the batch of inferior food and finding a few bags of stuff, Zheng Tan was sure that he had guessed correctly. These people are indeed manufacturing certain illegal drugs in the mountains, and at the same time producing a batch of inferior food, packaging the drugs in similar food packaging bags, and then shipping them out with the food to sell to buyers.

The bags look almost identical, except for the barcode. You really can't tell if you don't look carefully.

In one room, the bugs were also found, and they were locked in large, sturdy boxes.

No wonder the red-haired man didn't touch the boxes at all when he was watching them from above. He obviously knew that there were those kinds of bugs inside. Zheng Tan thought to himself.

Er Mao said that it was a kind of beetle brought in from abroad. It was probably caused by artificial mutagenesis. They have no reproductive function but a huge appetite. A box of these bugs can chew an adult into a skeleton in just half a day.

However, I heard that this was not the final success, but just a "little gadget" given to the group by the other party during the transaction.

Zheng Tan listened to the gunshots coming from the mountain and found a more secluded place to lie down. The matter was not over yet, and he did not want to encounter any accidents. On the other hand, Kurogane seemed very excited. He was very familiar with the sound of gunshots. When he heard this, he would think of the time when he went on a mission before, and he was a little ready to make a move.

By the time the matter was over, it was almost evening. Brother Walnut had an injury on his arm and looked a little tired, but his eyes were bright and he was still in the mood to make some jokes with Er Mao.

Listening to their conversation, Zheng Tan knew that the boss, who had a black background and was involved in drugs and had countless murder cases, had also been arrested. The follow-up investigation and arrest were still in progress. However, if he could catch this big fish, Walnut The senior brother was also very satisfied. There was only one thing that made him unhappy.

"The rich second generation they said went up the mountain to catch squirrels in the winter was nowhere to be seen. I thought, this is probably someone who hides deeply. I just don't know where he is from. If someone who is hostile to this gang is also Fortunately, after all, this gang, whether it is a company on the surface or a business behind closed doors, has irritated some people." Senior Brother Walnut said.

On the surface, the company of this group of people went bankrupt due to the failure of the business war, but the bulk of it was the secret business. As long as this business still existed, they would have a chance to make a comeback. However, more people don't want them to make a comeback. Perhaps the one pretending to be a rich second generation falls into this category?

"I don't think this person is necessarily a rival or accomplice of this gang. If he were a rival, the three people in the house would probably be dead long ago, and they would not be alive," Er Mao said.

At the same time, on a certain highway, inside a luxury car.

The man with burgundy hair is talking on the phone with a headset. When the group on the mountain searched the car, they did not find another mobile phone hidden in the car.

"Have you received the information? But you don't have to work hard now. They are probably in the hands of the police now, and there is basically no possibility of them getting up again... Of course, although you don't need to do anything anymore, you promised me the money I have to honor it. This time I almost disfigured myself in order to find evidence... There's nothing I can do about it. It's better to be beaten than to be fed bugs. As for the lethality of those bugs, think about the sent commercial spy who has been chewed into bones. What happened... Hehe, it's a pleasure to work with you, remember to come back next time if you need anything."

After disconnecting the call, after a while, he saw a remittance text message on his phone. He glanced at it, raised a smile, and listened to the blues music playing in the car. He held the steering wheel with one hand and tapped his fingers with the beat of the music. With.

"Black cats...what strange creatures." He sighed.
