Strange Life of a Cat

Zheng Tan was grounded, at least he couldn't wander around freely until he left Nancheng and Nanhua City.

This was the result of a unanimous decision by the four members of the Jiao family, which can be described as quite democratic.

Of course, for Zheng Tan, the current confinement doesn't actually have much impact on him. He is fairly familiar with Nancheng and Nanhua City, and he is not as curious as those who came here for the first time to visit and enjoy the scenery. This time he saw his parents, but unfortunately, the person he most wanted to see was always missing. Perhaps, this is God's will, no matter what, I can't see myself at this time and space point.

In fact, after calming down and thinking about it, Zheng Tan can also think that even if he sees another human being himself at this time, there may not be any good results. Back then, I was not very friendly to cats. After all, for a long time before, Zheng Tan felt that cats were crazy, and no cat would get close to Zheng Tan.

Forget it, if you don't see it, you won't see it.

The old man is one thing, and the weather is another. In the summer, Zheng Tan is also afraid of the heat, too lazy to run outside, and stays indoors most of the time. Jiao's mother takes Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyouzi to play around for a few days and then rests. Only Papa Jiao and Yuan Zhiyi ran a lot outside.

In mid-August, the Jiao family returned to Chuhua City. There were still many things to do. Although the holiday was not over, they had to come back early.

Jiao Yuan and the boys in the compound are all going to the same high school this time. The Chuhua High School is a bit far away from Chuhua University, and it is a boarding system with closed management. Jiao Yuan only comes back once a week on weekends, which means that Zheng I sigh that the time to see Jiao Yuan is much less.

And Xiaoyouzi, who also went to junior high school in September this year, is the same as Jiao Yuan and the others. They are both in the junior high school that is closer to Chuhua University, and a few children familiar to Xiaoyuzi from the West District compound are also together, so Papa Jiao Mother Jiao and the others are also relieved.

Jiao's mother will teach in junior high school for another year. She could have been transferred to the attached high school of Chu University long ago. It is no problem to teach high school with Jiao's mother's ability, not to mention that she has often gone to the attached high school to substitute for teachers in the past three years. I started as a freshman in high school, and later in the second year of high school. Sometimes I replaced some teachers who were unable to go to class due to leave for some reason. I have enough experience. The probationary period of the attached high school has already passed, but Jiao’s mother has not passed because of Jiao Yuan’s reason. This year, Xiong Xiong's mother personally came to persuade Jiao's mother to transfer early. There will be some changes in the policy in the future, and with the increasing competition, it may not be so easy to transfer. Jiao's mother promised to stay here again this year to teach in junior high school For one year, the main reason is to worry about Xiaoyuzi, and I will go to the middle school attached to Chuhua University next year.

Dad Jiao is also a very busy person. He has many students and subjects under his command, and he has to deal with those non-scientific things that he has to face.

In this way, Zheng Tan spent much more time alone. During the day, Jiao's father and Jiao's mother were not at home, Jiao Yuan came back once a week, and Xiao Youzi stayed at school at noon. Dad went to the teaching staff cafeteria to have breakfast, and after eating, he was thinking about how to have fun to pass the time. At noon, I followed Jiao Wei.

Thinking about such a life, Zheng Tan felt that it was really a pain in the ass. I really admire Ah Huang, they can sleep in the compound for a whole day or play with their own tails and entertain themselves by treating themselves as imaginary enemies.

Shu Dong and Boss Cai came to Chuhua City at the end of August and met with Ye Hao. Zheng Tan was lying on the sofa next to them to sleep at that time. When he turned over and stretched, he lost his sleep and didn't control his claws. He scratched a hole in Ye Hao's high-end sofa in the "Triumph" office. Ye Hao just looked at it silently. He glanced at it and said nothing. At that time, Dong Shu was quite surprised. He never expected that Ye Hao would be so tolerant towards cats. The self-proclaimed shrewd Dong Shu thought a lot of twists and turns to analyze the reason, not to mention whether he guessed the real situation. , at least one thing he was sure of, that black cat was special.

Mr. Shu stayed in Chuhua City for a few days before leaving. He was planning to invest in Chuhua City, so this time he came here just to inspect it first. Opened at the beginning of school in September. After all, preparations have already started, and the opening just in time for the start of school. After meeting Ye Hao this time and getting Ye Hao's words, he felt relieved and focused more on studying the tastes of people in Chuhua City. , Determine a few dishes that suit the style of Chuhua City and make special offers to test the response.

The scale of "Food Taste" is not small in Hengwu Plaza, it still has two floors, and the second floor is still mostly private rooms. In "Food Taste", there is another door leading to the second floor, where there is a door separating the restaurant on the second floor from Boss Cai's lounge. Sometimes Zheng Tan would go to the second floor and sleep in Boss Cai's lounge.

Papa Jiao is not worried at all that Zheng Tan will be hungry. For Zheng Tan, there are too many places where he can eat and sleep. Sometimes Papa Jiao tells Zheng Tan not to eat too much, overnutrition will also bring troubles. Mother Jiao sighed, it’s a good thing Zheng Tan is like this, otherwise it would be very difficult to raise if it was replaced by other cats. After all, everyone in Jiao’s family doesn’t spend much time at home now, and their work and rest are really not suitable for keeping pets. .

On this day, Xiaoyuzi’s classmate from the western compound celebrated her birthday, and invited some students to play, so today Xiaoyouzi will come back later, Jiao’s mother went to the gym to exercise, Jiao’s father continued to work hard in the courtyard, Zheng Tan wouldn't be alone at home watching dog-blood dramas in a daze, and simply go out for a walk.

After eating too much dinner, Zheng Tan didn't want to run too far, so he took a walk on the campus of Chuhua University, and went to the woods on the edge of the campus to play a game on his mobile phone.

Liuba probably had something to do recently, there was no text message or phone call to harass Zheng Tan, Zheng Tan was also happy and quiet.

After yawning, he would get sleepy when he was full, and he was too lazy to move after playing a game, so Zheng Tan decided to take a nap here for a while, and then go back after ordering.

Unexpectedly, this sleep was a bit late, Zheng Tan originally planned to go back at nine o'clock, but forgot to set the alarm clock on his phone, and when he woke up, it was already half past ten.

Zheng Tan is in a bad mood, and he will probably be reprimanded when he goes back. After Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyouzi started school, they are not grounded. Today, they will go back later, which will probably make Jiao's father and mother think too much, and think that Zheng Tan is safe. Returned late again in a few days.

He hurriedly got up and planned to walk out of the tree hole, Zheng Tan moved his ears, stopped walking, and carefully poked his head out of the tree hole to look out.

Someone is coming this way.

Generally, no students would come to the woods at this time. After all, it was too late and accidents were easy to happen. The woods did not feel safe to them.

Anyway, the person over there is coming soon, Zheng Tan decided to take a look first, there is a mobile phone here. Although he thought that no one would climb the tree to dig out the tree hole, Zheng Tan still wanted to be just in case.

Running into the woods at this time, hearing the sound of footsteps still a little sneaky, why on earth? It’s understandable if it’s those young couples, but it looks like they are two men, and the surrounding is very dark, but Zheng Tan can still see the two people coming over here with some moonlight, one is about twenty, quite young , another forty or so.

The two seemed to be very tired, panting for breath, but they were careful not to pant too loudly, and they kept their voices down. Zheng Tan couldn't hear clearly. It doesn't belong to Chuhua City's local accent, so Zheng Tan can only guess one or two words from what he heard.

If there were faint sounds of students passing by on the road leading to the side door along the edge of the woods, the two would stop and hide behind a tree or crouch behind a bush, and they would not continue walking until the students had left.

This made Zheng Tan even more curious. Although these two people's hiding skills are not very good, they are too careful, right? What the hell did these two people do?

At first glance, he is not a good person.

When those two people approached the tree where Zheng Tan was staying, Zheng Tan shrank his head into the hole, and he found that the older man would look up at the tree above when he was walking.

The tree Zheng Tan was in was selected not only for the tree hole above it, but also for its concealment. It is safer to cover the branches and leaves when it is not winter, and no one is idle at ordinary times. I came here to climb trees. Up to now, no one has discovered this tree hole. There are people who have moved around here a few times, but they don’t know how to climb trees.

Just as he was thinking, he heard the older man say something, Zheng Tan heard words like "on the tree", but didn't understand the specific meaning.

There was someone staring at him from below, Zheng Tan didn't stick his head out, he just kept his ears open to judge what the other party was doing from the sound he heard. The next moment, Zheng Tan felt someone climbing up the tree.

Zheng Tan was surprised, did he really crawl? !

Is it also something to hide?

Zheng Tan cursed inwardly: Fuck, if you hide something, you can hide it. There are so many trees in the forest, why did these two 'rats' choose this tree?

He didn't plan to do anything at first, but now he couldn't help but Zheng sighed, he didn't want these two people to find the tree hole where he hid his things. It's rare to find such a good place to hide things, and someone wants to come and snatch it?

There are no doors!

Zheng Tan didn't react immediately when he noticed someone climbing up the tree. Instead, he shrank into the tree hole, trying to avoid the other party from finding him.

Probably because they were afraid of being discovered, the two of them didn't turn on flashlights or anything like that. Under the cover of the night, they climbed up bit by bit alone.

Feeling that the person was getting closer, Zheng sighed and held his breath, quietly bent his palm to pick up a broken twig next to him, the break was a little sharp.

A pair of hands appeared at the tree hole, it should be the younger person.

Zheng Tan tried his best to shrink into the tree hole.

"Hey, Uncle, there seems to be a hole!" The young man tested the edge of the hole with his hands, and happily lowered his head to the tree and said to the people around him. Holes in trees are better for hiding things.

Zheng Tan understood this sentence, but Zheng Tan didn't understand what the elder under the tree said quickly.

After the young man bowed his head and finished speaking, he was about to climb up a little bit to take a closer look at the hole, but when he turned his head, before he could continue to climb up, a blurry shadow under the night suddenly came out of the tree hole.

"Ha!" Zheng Tan shouted. At the same time, he stabbed the branch held by his claws into the man's hand.

The young man was so frightened by the unknown object and the sudden strange sound that his legs were weak, and his hands were still tingling. He was already guilty, but now under the double attack, he fell directly from the tree.
