Strange Life of a Cat
Chapter 370 Buy or Get Out
We had lunch at Feng Bojin's house. Originally, Zheng Tan planned to play here for a while, watching the tigers fight against other cats in the community, but after seeing the chat records between Feng Bojin and his classmates, Zheng Tan decided to hurry up. leave and go home.
A classmate of Feng Bojin lived in a neighboring city. When the two of them were chatting through chat software just now, Zheng Tan saw Feng Bojin said that there was hail and strong winds in their place.
It seems that the wind outside Chuhua City has also picked up, but there is no rain or hail. Zheng Tan stayed in Chuhua City for the past few years and has never seen hailstorms here. He has heard of it in the outer suburbs, but he has never seen it in the urban area. Generally, it only rains in the urban area.
After looking at the sky, Zheng Tan decided to leave quickly, the weather was getting worse and worse.
Coming out of the villa area by the lake, Zheng Tan ran back.
A gust of wind blew over, and some bicycles parked on the side fell down in a row, and the green trees on both sides of the road were also bent by the blowing, and the leaves rustled.
I don't know what was blown up by the wind and hit some parked electric cars and cars, making a sharp siren.
Zheng Tan didn't look at it much, he just wanted to go back quickly, and after he got back, he wouldn't be afraid of the wind and rain outside.
When passing by the affiliated hospital, Zheng Tan thought of Xiao Hua who was tied there.
Jumping up to the wall and looking in, Xiao Hua was still lying there, her eyes narrowed because of the wind blowing, and the hair on her body was blown into a mess.
The guard was helping to help a patient in, so he didn't pay attention to Xiaohua. And at this moment, another gust of wind blew past.
Kaka!
A tree near the guardhouse was blown down, snapped off from the trunk, and the broken part was turned upside down toward the guardhouse.
Xiaohua stood up and tried to escape when she saw it, but she couldn't break free because the rope was tied. Fortunately, Zheng Tan saw that the tree fell slightly to the side, so that it would not overwhelm Xiaohua.
But Xiaohua didn't know, it only saw the tree falling to this side, after struggling for a while without breaking free, it struggled hard several times, coupled with the stimulation of the fallen tree, the strength of the struggle was even greater, it was almost the same as Desperately earning. This time, it's for real, not just playing around with old man Li in the usual way.
Such a big dog is really moving, and its strength is still great.
Xiaohua's dog leash was tied to a steel pillar, and the steel pillar was firmly fixed, so Xiaohua couldn't pull it. The disconnection is at the hook of the leash and the collar, and the hook is detached from the leash.
Zheng Tan wanted to go down and help Xiao Hua untie the rope, but Xiao Hua had already broken the rope.
After breaking free, Xiao Hua's first reaction was to run in the direction where old man Li and the old lady left, but there were too many people there, and they were wary of Xiao Hua, a big dog, and refused to let him go. After being driven away, Xiao Hua ran towards the hospital door Run away, since it can't enter the hospital, it will go home.
Seeing Zheng Tan at the gate of the hospital, Xiao Hua immediately quickened her pace and ran towards Zheng Tan.
Zheng Tan jumped onto Xiao Hua's back, hooked the collar around the dog's neck to stabilize it, and then moved the collar to signal Xiao Hua to go back.
With Zheng Tan here, Xiao Hua didn't run around as much as before. Besides, it was led by the old lady these days, so it remembered the way.
While running, Zheng Tan noticed that it was starting to rain.
This is not a good sign, if it rains, Zheng Tan doesn't care, but Xiao Hua still has injuries on her body, it's not healed, it's definitely not good to get wet in the rain.
Now it's windy again, and it looks like the rainstorm will start soon. There is still a traffic jam at the T-junction ahead. There are so many cars and people that the road ahead is so blocked that Xiaohua can't get through. There is an old lady who sees Xiaohua and grabs her Drive away with an umbrella.
It won't work if you delay like this, the summer rain won't give you too much reaction time, maybe it will rain down in the next moment.
After thinking about the distance between this place and the other side of the compound, although it is not too far, it will take five minutes to run at Xiaohua's speed just now, but I don't know if I can last five minutes in this weather. If it rains immediately, even if you stay outside for two seconds, you will be drowned.
"Hey, over there!"
Someone shouted this way, but Zheng Tan didn't think about himself at first. The voice over there yelled a few more times, and then added "Mi——" to the end of the sentence.
This is the common name people here call cats.
Zheng Tan looked over.
Not far away from the entrance of a small grocery store, a middle-aged man stood there looking in Zheng Tan's direction, saw Zheng Tan looking over, and waved.
Zheng Tan hesitated for two seconds, but decided to go and take shelter from the rain first, the rain was already getting heavy, there was no longer any delay, and he had to be decisive.
Pulling the collar, she signaled Xiaohua to go over there.
Xiaohua was a little puzzled, looked at the grocery store, then turned to look at Zheng Tan, and walked there according to Zheng Tan's intention, but with vigilance, she stopped two meters away from the grocery store entrance, looked at People standing next to the checkout counter in a small grocery store.
"Come in." The man waved again.
The little flower doesn't move.
Zheng Tan jumped off the dog's back and walked into the shop first. Sniffing, looking in one direction.
On a high shelf, a white cat with a clean body was squatting on it, condescendingly looking down at Zheng Tan who walked in the door, his pupils narrowed, and his eyes looked a little sharp.
Zheng Tan ran out and pushed Xiao Hua into the shop.
Xiao Hua followed Zheng Tan's strength and slowly moved into the shop, but she still had a sense of vigilance. After entering, I sniffed the surroundings, and then squatted near the store door, not going into the house.
As long as it is not exposed to rain, Xiaohua's wound will not have any problems for the time being. If it is infected, even if it is not a serious injury, it can deteriorate into a serious injury.
After Xiao Hua entered the store, Zheng Tan looked at the person leaning against the cashier.
It seems that the boss is nearly forty, and his skin is a bit dark. I don't know if it is natural or sun-tanned. With a very mean face, biting a cigarette, looking in the direction of Zheng Tan and Xiao Hua.
Generally speaking, aunts and old ladies will tell their little grandsons to stay away from such people when they see such people. I also feel close, but with a vicious look or a face like the person in front of me who looks hard to speak and mean, that is another kind of treatment.
However, for animals, the face has nothing to do with the impression. If you have goodwill towards them, you will also get close to many animals.
When Zheng Tan saw the cat on the shelf just now, he felt that this person should not be too bad. He and Xiao Hua were just sheltering from the rain here temporarily, and they didn't want to touch this person's interests, so it should be fine.
Moving his ears, Zheng Tan heard the voice and looked behind the shop.
A young man came out with a box of umbrellas.
"Boss, that's all. I tore up all the previous price tags. It's all fifteen dollars... Damn!"
The man was talking, when he saw the big dog squatting in front of the store, he almost threw a box of umbrellas in his hand to the ground.
"Old... Boss, where is the dog?" The young man looked very scared, and he stopped approaching, holding a box of umbrellas and looking at the person next to the cashier.
"I called someone to come in to shelter from the rain, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid of dogs. I was bitten by a dog when I was a child. Since then, I think dogs are really scary animals. I don't understand why so many people like dogs."
"Okay, put the umbrella there, you can take a nap in the back." The boss said while biting a cigarette, his words were not clear, and he still had an obvious dialect accent. If he was not familiar with the dialect, Zheng Tan would not will not understand.
The young man understood, he was used to this way of speaking. He quickly put down a box of folding umbrellas and slipped away, not forgetting to close the door leading to the back room, as if afraid of the big dog in front of the door.
The store owner took out a pen and wrote something on a piece of white paper, and then took the paper and moved the box of umbrellas to the door of the store. The piece of paper was hanging on a shelf above, with black and white writing and bold fonts— ——"Umbrellas and raincoats are on sale, and the price of umbrellas is 20 yuan/piece".
If Zheng Tan hadn't heard hallucinations just now, the young man said that these umbrellas were sold for fifteen yuan when he brought the box over.
There is also a "special price" at twenty, which is indeed a very expensive price, and it is a profiteer.
The rain outside turned into a torrential rain within two minutes after Zheng Tan and Xiao Hua entered the house, crackling and hitting the ground, splashing water droplets made Xiao Hua take a step back.
The wind outside has become stronger again, basically as soon as I go out, I get wet.
The wind was too strong, and the rain would still float into the house, so the boss closed most of the store door, leaving only the area where the umbrella was placed. The box is covered with a layer of cloth, which is waterproof, and I don't worry about rainwater falling into the box.
Not to mention, there are quite a few people who come to buy umbrellas and raincoats, and many of them hurriedly give money and take the umbrellas and leave. Of course, there are also bargains, but they will always be rejected in the end. I won't let you pay for other small things. In a word, I just don't bargain.
The store owner went inside the cash register and started fiddling with an electric fan. The kind of desktop fan used by students, in general, those students in the school will take it for repair after the fan does not work, and some will sell it at a low price. The shop owner should have received it from the students at a low price. Come here, repair it and sell it for some money.
Bang!
Zheng Tan followed the sound and looked over.
Two young men with dyed hair and short-sleeved T-shirts with skull prints walked in. The sound just now came from the metal shelf they kicked to the door.
Both of them were soaked through, and they wiped their flip flops on the dry cardboard box next to them. They were cursing and talking, but when they saw Xiao Hua, they paused and restrained themselves a little. Most people are quite afraid of this kind of big dog.
After the two men took two umbrellas and other things from the store, they came to the cash register.
"A total of seventy-two yuan and thirty cents, thank you." The shop owner said.
"It's so expensive, let's make it cheaper." The young man said while putting things into the bag.
"No bargaining, seventy-two yuan and three, thank you." The store owner said again, and said nothing about the young man who put the things in the bag before paying.
"Hey, you old bastard, you are wasting time by whining and crooked, and you can make it cheaper if you make it cheaper, don't you understand the good words?" As he spoke, the young man took out a 50 and slapped it on the counter, intending to pick it up. Pass things and leave.
But the store owner reacted faster, and before the man could lift the bag, he was twisted and pressed against the counter.
"It hurts, hurts, hurts!" The young man's face was contorted, and for some reason, the slightest movement caused severe pain, as if he was about to be twisted.
"What are you doing?" Another young man yelled angrily. He looked to the side and planned to get the mop. It would be easier to talk with a stick in hand.
"Wow!"
Xiaohua realized something, and yelled, and growled lowly at the person who wanted to get the mop.
The man had touched the mop with his hands, and was scared back by a dog barking.
The store owner glanced at the person who wanted to get the mop, then turned back to look at the person whose hand he was holding down tightly, biting a cigarette, he leaned over and said slowly, "Either buy it or leave."
The old man in the family is not in good health, so I rushed back to my hometown during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday to see the old man. I arrived relatively late, so today's update is also relatively late, everyone forgive me.
Thank you for the mooncakes and sweet-scented osmanthus wine! I also thank everyone who voted. After looking at it, I found that it actually went to the first place in the recommendation of the urban category, cat friends V5!
