Strange Life of a Cat - Chapter 419
“Apocalyptic” is exactly what Zheng Tan thought. It passed away. Zheng Tan didn’t go online to make a bet with those people, and he didn’t have the mood to join in the fun and talk with those guys who had vigorously spread the doomsday theory. This article is written by. 23u. Starter
After the end of the last year in the internet, the atmosphere of the Jiao family became more and more tense.
One is Xiaoyuzi’s college entrance examination, and the other is Zheng Tan’s status.
Xiaoyouzi did not choose the **** from Chuhua University, because the quota was limited, she gave up the place to Xie Xin, an old classmate in the Western District Courtyard. Xie Xin’s results were not as stable as hers, and Xiaoyouzi’s results were always good, and After Dao Jiao talked, Xiaoyuzi made a decision.
For high school students, time flies faster than anyone else, as if it is not enough. Fortunately, Xiao Yuzu’s psychological quality is not bad. This reassures Jiao and Jiao.
However, Zheng Tan ’s problem is still the same as last year. He always dreams. It feels that even if he only dreams for a short time, he will dream a lot, his thinking is very confused, and Zheng Tan is afraid to sleep now. If you don’t get enough sleep, you will definitely not feel better.
Jiao Ma also took Zheng Tan to the pet center to check, but found no major problem, that is, lack of sleep.
Jiao Yuan called home a lot more frequently in the past six months. He asked Xiao Yuzi’s situation and Zheng Tan, and said that if the veterinarians couldn’t solve it, he would take him to Beijing for a look. There are also many authoritative veterinarians over there.
Zheng Tan didn’t want to go, and Jiao Mom couldn’t help it, thinking that after waiting for Xiaoyuzi’s college entrance examination, the family went to the capital to watch Jiao Yuan together, and took Zheng Tan by the way for inspection.
When Zheng Tan was at home, he was facing the desk calendar on Xiaoyuzi’s desk. After turning it over, he thought about the time when he turned into a cat, probably in June, but the specific time can’t be remembered. It’s been over ten years, who remembers it. Besides, Zheng Tan has been in the past Chaotic days do n’t remember dates, and sometimes miss school exams.
Holding out his paw, Zheng Tan scratched an inconspicuous mark on the dates from June 1st to 15th. Added a few more claws to No. 7 and No. 8. That was the time for the small grapefruit college entrance examination.
Every time Yuzu returns, Zheng Tan pretends to be in good spirits, but as soon as Xiao Yuzu leaves, Zheng Tan returns to the usual muddy state. Dao Jiao asked Zheng Tan to stay in his office. Anything is easy to take care of. Zheng sighed. He felt comfortable staying at home.
On the morning of June 8, Dad Jiao, Jiao Ma and Xiao Yuzi went out. Zheng Tan went out with them, Dao Jiao sent Xiaoyuzi to the examination room, and Jiao Ma was going to the middle school. Zheng Tan sent them out of the compound. He wanted to make another turn. Decided to go home to sleep.
Jumping on the sofa in the living room, Zheng Tan’s cat circle was too lazy to lift it off. He lifted his foot and put the remote control in the middle of the sofa to pedal far away, then lay on the middle of the sofa, listening to the slight click of the wall clock second hand, closed Close your eyes.
After Jiao Ma rode out of the car, she suddenly thought that the U disk was not taken. After copying the information in the morning, she forgot to unplug it, and then went back by riding the car.
On the first floor, the old lady at the Fat House was combing her hair. After seeing Jiao Ma, she said, “I just saw that your charcoal is back. You should run home to make up for it.”
When I heard the old lady’s words, Jiao Mom didn’t care. It was estimated that when she sent the little grapefruit out in the morning, she was pretending to be too mental, and now she went home to rest. Jiao Ma thought, after the day passed, I would take my time to take my cat to Beijing to look for someone, otherwise no one at home would be relieved.
When going upstairs, Jiao’s eyelids kept jumping, took the key to open the door, and glanced into the room.
The room was a bit weird. There was only one cat card on the sofa, no other movement, no black cats, as if no other creatures existed.
唰 ——
The window screen was blown up in the half-open window, and the breeze of June was blowing in from the window.
Sunny outside the window.
——————
South City.
A high-rise residence in an elevator room near Nancheng University.
In the bedroom, the sun shines through the window through the gaps in the curtains that are not fully closed.
The harsh light frowned on the bed.
Eyelids moved, Zheng Tan’s eyes opened a slit.
The sun was shining on my face, and I suddenly woke up to see the sun. The eyes that had just opened closed immediately, raised my hand to block it, and then closed my eyes.
Snapped.
The sound from the slap to the face is quite clear in the quiet room, and the slight pain is clearly transmitted to the brain.
Three seconds later, Zheng Tan opened his eyes.
Looking through the fingers, the strange but somewhat familiar decoration, the curtains were partially hidden from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and there was no cover, and the light came in from there.
With a blink of an eye, Zheng Tan’s head was still a little chaotic, the palms covering his face were lifted, and the focal length of the eyes fell on the palms.
The palm print is clear, five long fingers, not black hairy cat palms.
“Ma, dream again!”
With a low curse, Zheng Tan closed her eyes and planned to continue to sleep. After a few seconds of silence, Zheng Tan sat up sharply and looked at the two palms raised to her eyes. Zheng Tan rubbed her face hard and tried to make a sound again.
“Ahem! Uh-huh-huh-oh-”
The pronunciation is clear.
When I dreamed, I didn’t seem to really talk?
It seems that there is no such feeling for a long time.
Still wrong.
Do you dream about cats when you are a cat, or do you dream about cats when you are a human?
Zheng Tan lifted off his thin quilt and got out of bed without shoes. He stepped directly on a layer of gray wooden floor, walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window, and put off obstructing clothes and pants on the ground.
This feeling of walking on two legs is strange, but it feels natural.
Open the curtains and open the floor-to-ceiling windows.
A gust of wind came on, bringing the temperature of the sun.
Zheng Tan walked to the balcony, looked at the building in the distance, and took a deep breath.
“what–”
Shouting this joyfulness aloud, it seems that I haven’t felt it for a long time. Although the thinking is not too clear now, Zheng Tan just feels that he is roaring so much. The mood will be much better.
After yelling, Zheng Tan habitually looked down.
There is no barbed wire on the balcony below. There is no blue-violet parrot with a yellow eye. There is a six- or seven-year-old child standing there, holding an ice cream in his hand, probably because Zheng Tan suddenly roared so loudly , A little scared, I looked up at Zheng Tan there, not even noticed that the ice cream melted and dropped on the ground.
Look back. Looking into the distance. Zheng Tan roared again.
“what——”
Roared longer than before, hysterical.
The child downstairs, the child who was standing there was hugged into the house by the parents who came out. The parents looked at Zheng Tan as if they were looking at a neurosis.
I didn’t care about the sight of others. Ignore the scolding of other residents. Zheng Tan roared cheerfully and a few times later. I entered the room and took a cold shower, and when I came out I was much more awake.
Take the phone on the bedside table and check the date, June 12, 2013.
Zheng Tan scratched his head. 12th?
A series of missed calls on the phone, the caller’s name is a little familiar, Zheng Tan ignored it, and looked at the time of the call. The earliest one came from the 8th.
Regardless of those missed calls, Zheng Tan is still confused. Is the cat real, or is it human? If you dream, that ’s too true. Do n’t you just say that after you dream, do you forget when you wake up?
Open the Weibo software on the mobile phone and log in automatically, but it is not the “Zheng Tan” number in memory, log out, log in again, and enter a new account password.
After a while of reaction … boarded!
The dragging black cat avatars are the same as those in memory, and those microblogs, including the school bus game cat event, and the doomsday brawl, are on a pair.
If the dream is true …
Zheng Tan searched for a few more keywords, such as a movie about black cats, such as a documentary, another pet center, and a professor Jiao, all of which are exactly the same as in memory.
On the screen of the mobile phone, which is not too big, one by one familiar pictures, one by one coincident with the memories, Zheng Tan felt a headache.
What the **** is going on here? !!
Throwing the mobile phone beside him, Zheng Tan worked hard to figure it out, so he finally couldn’t carry his stomach, and went downstairs to find the nearest restaurant for dinner.
A meal tasted like chewing wax. I didn’t pay attention to the meal at all. I took the rice spoon mechanically to deliver the meal to my mouth, but looked away from the window, thinking about other things.
Finally, before the meal on the plate was finished, Zheng Tan made a decision. The air ticket could not be booked now, and the train could not be booked. He booked a special express ticket. It was a car at 6 pm. city.
Now that you don’t think clearly, go find the answer.
When walking back out of the restaurant, passing by a small barber shop, Zheng Tan scratched the yellow hair on the bun and walked in.
When it came out again, one of the yellow hairs turned black and was cut short.
Go back and change a simple set of sportswear, took a cell phone, bank card, ID card …
Looking at the avatar and the person’s name on the ID card, Zheng Tan flicked it against the person on the ID card, put the ID card in his wallet, brought some change, and packed it to the station.
At six o’clock the next morning, Zheng Tan stepped out of the station and did not hire a taxi. Instead, he walked to the bus station and looked at the stop signs outside the station and the driving directions of the various vehicles. Many familiar station names. Waited for the car, found a seat by the window, and watched the streets and buildings outside as the bus drove.
Just after the Dragon Boat Festival, the billboards in many stores about the Dragon Boat Festival have not yet been removed. At this time, there are many people who work, and at the crossroads that are prone to traffic jams, private cars and buses are growing. The temperature outside is a bit high, and the car’s horns and people’s shouts flood the street.
This kind of weather and things encountered make people easily irritable, but Zheng Tan’s mind is not on it, not to mention irritability, just a bit complicated.
The middle-aged passenger on the car’s cell phone rang, and the song felt like a golden age. Zheng Tan heard this song, not from the Internet or other electronic devices, but from a bird. Zheng Tan seemed to see that cheap bird with yellow eyes shaking his head and singing.
Some songs that were once dismissive are like treasures when recalled many years later. At the time point of the song, the emotions caused by the people, things and things involved always make people remember for a long time.
Connect with this bus and park on another bus at the intersection, near the window. There was a young man carrying a bag and carrying a bag of buns in his arms. He noticed that Zheng Tan looked at him, and he looked over here. Two windows across the window were reflective, and the expression on the other side was not real.
The turn right ahead lights up, and Zheng Tan’s car goes first. As the vehicle moved, for a moment, Zheng Tan clearly saw the expression on the other side and the doubts in his eyes, but soon, the two cars drifted away.
When streetscape becomes familiar. Zheng Tan’s mood became more complicated. A little bit sloppy and a little bit happy.
There was a young policeman by the street who had just caught a thief and was holding it with handcuffs. Holding a walkie talkie.
A trailer for a movie is displayed on the big screen of the commercial square. Director Kong Han. The actors are Wei Wen, Xue Ding, Tao Qi …
With two stops to the original destination, Zheng Tan got off.
Walk along the familiar road in memory, passing by the lakeside villa area. A three-legged tortoise rushed across the street, holding a mouse in his mouth, glancing at Zheng sigh, and then flipping into the villa area from the wall fence. Along the road along the lake, a dark gray cat with a black pattern that was significantly larger than other cats rubbed its paws on a willow.
Without saying anything, Zheng Tan continued to move forward. When passing by the affiliated hospital and passing a small grocery store, Zheng Tan looked at it. The shameless store manager sat behind the counter, biting a cigarette and instructing the clerk to move the goods. A white cat crouched on the shelf, staring sharply at the passing pedestrians.
Enter from the side door on the edge of Chuhua University campus, Zheng Tan walks in along the side wall. Beside a tall tree, on the inconspicuous wall of the wall, the crooked lines of pencil writing were imprinted into the eyes.
“Zheng Heitan visited here, December 12, 2009.”
“September 9, 2010.”
“February 28, 2011.” There is also an abstract sun behind.
…
Zheng Tan raised his finger and touched the word, and it was stained with black pencils.
After twisting his fingers, Zheng Tan walked along the side path, passed through the grove area, passed the old tile house, a familiar house, a familiar lawn, a trail that you can know with your eyes closed, and that The compound …
Uncle Gatekeeper of the Eastern District Courtyard had poisoned eyes, and at a glance he saw Zheng Tan’s raw face among the people entering and leaving the courtyard.
“Hey who, who are you looking for?” Uncle Doorman leaned out the window of the doorman’s room and shouted at Zheng Tan.
“I’m looking for Professor Jiao who lives on the fifth floor of Building B.” Zheng Tan walked over and said.
“Oh, Teacher Jiao ’s family, he ’s not here. He should be in the academy of sciences now, but their cat was lost a few days ago, and the family is going crazy. Clue? A cat that has always been pure black, so big, called black charcoal, have you seen it? “Uncle Gatekeeper asked eagerly.
“I’ve seen it before,” added Zheng Tan with a pause. “A handsome cat.”
Hearing Zheng Tan’s answer, the light of hope in the eyes of the uncle’s guard was dim again, so he didn’t say more, and waved his hand to indicate that Zheng Tan could go in.
Taking a deep breath, Zheng Tan lifted his foot in.
The aunt who took the vegetable basket in and out glanced at Zheng Tan a few times, presumably guessing the origin of Zheng Tan in her heart.
Near the gate of the compound, on the bench under the shade of the tree, Old Man Li and Old Man Yan sat with small flowers and cows and chatted. The two old men just glanced at Zheng Tan and didn’t look at it again, but Xiaohua and Niu Zhuang’s strong eyes followed Zheng Tan’s movement. In the eyes of Niu Zhuangzhuang’s pair of small triangles, it is rare that he is not fierce as usual.
Ruan Ying led the Sahara to go out. After passing Zheng Tan, Sahara turned to Zheng Tan’s foot with a thunderbolt, and the speed was very different from the weakness of plain fashion. The force is not great, it will not bite the foot, but the mouth is not light, because it left a few deep tooth marks and a pair of saliva on Zheng Tan’s sneakers.
Ruan Ying didn’t expect that the Sahara, who usually does not bite, would suddenly come this way, quickly apologized to Zheng Tan, and said compensation. Zheng Tan smiled and refused.
When Ruan Yingxun reprimanded Sahara to leave, Sahara looked back at Zheng Tan with a slightly provocative look, and his tail fluttered into a miser.
Zheng sighed, Sahara waiting for you, I promise not to kill you!
When he came downstairs to Building B, Zheng Tan’s heart beat a little fast, thinking whether he should just press the door number on the access control or open his mouth and shout. At this time, the old lady on the first floor took the tanuki cat to the balcony and saw Zheng Tan. The old lady questioned Zheng Tan who she was looking for, and asked Zheng Tan if she had seen a black cat.
After Zheng Tan answered. The old lady also had a look of regret. “His family is not at home. Go to Teacher Jiao’s side of the academy of sciences. The grapefruit should be there too … Unfortunately, the charcoal is crying. The boy from Jiao Yuan has returned and left last night. Xiao Gu’s eyes were red when he went to work today. Hey, what’s the matter? ”
The old lady is a pity. Shattered. But the fat next to him stared at Zheng Tan.
Zheng Tan reached for his hand, looked at the old lady with fat, and walked over.
“Huh?” The old lady was surprised. “You guys have been here before? My family is fat and not close to strangers.” There was another word the old lady didn’t say. Not just not getting close to strangers. Even people you know don’t lose face. But the old lady didn’t expect Fatty to be so familiar.
Zheng sighed “um”. He didn’t know how to answer, scratched his chin, and then got up and said to the old lady, “Then I’ll go to Teacher Jiao. You’re busy.”
Although confused, the old lady didn’t ask much. However, after Zheng Tan left, Fat also followed.
In the large yard, it was neither dense nor tall, a black-and-white cat caught bugs in the grass, and a yellow cat hugged the tree and rubbed its **** and claws.
Zheng Tan walked over and brought up A Huang, who was grinding his paws, “You’re a second!” This sentence was tense and finally came out.
The sheriff who heard the movement stopped playing bugs and came over.
Zheng Tan sat down on a wooden bench nearby, jumped on the bench with the overweight, squatted next to him, and saw that, A Huang and the sheriff also jumped up and squatted there in turn. As before.
In the summer morning, the temperature rises as the sun rises. The wind was blowing, and the leaves rustled.
People who work, go to school, and buy food in the compound will look at the benches when they pass by. They used to see four cats squatting side by side. Now the Jiao family ’s black cat is gone, but they see again. It was strange that one person and three cats were sitting there. When were these three cats so familiar with the same person?
After sitting on the bench for a while, and calming down, Zheng Tan patted the three cats. “Leave first, and come back to play with you later.”
When he got up and left the compound, walking along the road to the intersection, a school bus passed by, Zheng Tan quickly waved.
The driver was that bald, wearing a hat for image.
It’s class time now, and there is no one in the car, so the bald driver speaks to Zheng Tan sitting in the front passenger seat.
“Boy, are you from our school?” The bald driver asked.
“No, but I used to come here often, I’m very familiar, and I’ve taken your car several times.” Zheng Tan answered.
The bald driver took a look at Zheng Tan, shook his head while someone was getting out of the car, and said with certainty, “Impossible, I’m absolutely impressed if you come here often and take my car.”
“Oh, I may have misremembered it. Take the other master’s car.” Zheng Tan didn’t entangle this issue.
The bald driver glanced at Zheng Tan with mercy: “It’s not my memory at a young age, go back and ask your mother to give you more fish heads and walnuts to supplement the brain.”
Zheng Tan: “… hehe.”
“Don’t take it seriously, I tell you …”
“Master, I get off!”
The bald driver told him all the way and finally waited for the place. Zheng Tan couldn’t wait to get out of the car, looked at the familiar college door, and walked in.
The uncle janitor sitting on the side of the gate of the hospital saw Zheng Tan walking so confidently and thought for a while, but still didn’t stop this strange face ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Where is Jiao’s office, Zheng Tan is very familiar. When he arrived at the door of the office, Yi Xin came out from the inside, and the voice of Xiao Yuzi and Jiao Da came from inside. The voice was cut off as Yi Xin closed the door.
Yi Xin looked strangely at the people in front of him, thinking that he was an undergraduate in the hospital, and he asked who he was looking for before leaving.
Zheng Tan stood at the door and buckled the door.
“Come in.” There was a voice inside.
Zheng Tan twisted the door lock and pushed it open.
