Strange Life of a Cat

Zheng Tan opened one of the hidden drawers on the cat climbing frame. This drawer was specially cleared by Zheng Tan to put business cards and other things. I never thought about business cards before. After all, who would give a cat a business card?

But now that I know more people, there are always some people who are special and have extraordinary ideas. For example, on the day of Wei Leng's wedding, Zheng Tan collected a lot of business cards in the suite of Ermao and his brothers. Ermao helped collect them. After that, I returned to the compound and gave it to Zheng Tan.

Those with business cards gave them business cards, and those without business cards cut a piece of paper about the same size as the business card and wrote down some mailing addresses. For example, Ermao’s master did this, so that Zheng Tan could visit him when he had time in the future, and get to know him by the way. Mountain". I don’t know if this paper is for Zheng Tan or for the Jiao family behind Zheng Tan. The latter is more likely. In the eyes of these people, if a cat can understand anything, it is very capable if it can accept business cards.

Pei Liang's business card is quite professional, more refined, he travels a lot and has contact with many people, so he is more particular about it. Pei Liang also allowed Zheng Tan to have time to travel there with the Jiao family and enjoy the mountains and rivers.

Zheng Tan really wanted to go out and enjoy the mountains and rivers, but with his cat-like appearance, it was impossible for him to do it alone. The three Jiao family members couldn't leave. Even if it was a holiday, Jiao's mother would not dare to take the two children away. When traveling far away to enjoy the scenery, I can only wait for Dad Jiao to come back.

Zheng Tan counted the days and realized that it had only been half a year since Dad Jiao left. There was still time to wait.

Wei Leng is now married and has a wife. He has been busy making babies recently. He has quit smoking and drinking, and has stopped going to nightclubs. He is very disciplined. Er Mao, on the other hand, often goes out and has a good time with Qin Tao and the others. After careful calculation, these two people acted as Zheng Tan's "transportation" and driver when he went out for fun. Now that these two people were busy with their own affairs, it was impossible for Zheng Tan to go out for fun.

As for Fang Shaokang, he is too busy now to see anyone, and his family has a big business, so Zheng Tan doesn't count on him.

After looking at the business card, Zheng Tan sighed inwardly, locked the drawer again and hid the key. After stretching, he decided to go out for a walk.

Ah Huang and the police sergeant were watching the sparrows in some trees in the compound with great interest. The fat man was lying on the grass basking in the sun, looking like he was too lazy to die.

Zheng Tan walked out of the courtyard and planned to walk along the main road of the campus. There were not many people at this time, and there were not many vehicles coming and going.

Zheng Tan was walking casually on the main road when he suddenly heard a scolding sound coming from behind him. He turned around and saw a modified three-wheeled bicycle, which was more like the one used to pull goods. It is a load-carrying bicycle, but the cargo space at the back of this vehicle is smaller, and it does not require manual pedaling. It can be used directly as an electric vehicle, and there is a basket in the front of the vehicle.

There was an old man riding on the bike. There was a border collie behind the old man's bike. It was the target of the old man's scolding. It was running with the car. It didn't know what it smelled before it was scolded, so it ran into the grass next to it. . Judging from its size, this border collie must not have reached adulthood yet, but it was very energetic. As soon as the old man scolded it, it immediately jumped out from the grass and continued to run with the car.

The old man controlled the speed of the car, not too fast, but the border collie fell a little far because of his distraction. After the old man passed by Zheng Tan on his bicycle, the border collie passed by Zheng Tan like a gust of wind. Run aside.

Zheng Tan was walking on the sidewalk, and the old man was riding in the driveway. He didn't pay attention to Zheng Tan on the sidewalk just now. After the border collie ran past Zheng Tan, he suddenly stopped, looked at Zheng Tan, and shook his head. He ran toward Zheng Tan with his tail raised, seemingly curious about Zheng Tan as a cat, but he didn't show any malice.

If it were an ordinary cat, no matter whether you have any malicious intentions or not, when you see a big dog running towards you, your first reaction is to run. If you don't run, you will bend down and growl. But Zheng Tan had no intention of paying attention to the dog. Anyway, it would be called away by the old man soon.

Sure enough, before the border collie got close to Zheng Tan, he was called away by the old man riding the bike in front of him. It seemed quite obedient. If this was the Sahara, it would pretend it didn't hear you even if you called it several times, and it might even move further away. Run everywhere.

After climbing up the hill, Zheng Tan saw the border sheep jumping onto the old man's car, squatting in the cargo area, resting his chin on the edge, and looking around curiously.

Zheng Tan thought for a while and determined that he had never seen this dog before, or maybe it was because he had not been walking around the campus in the past few months. In June, in order to avoid people who knew him from referring to him as a "mythical beast", he , I rarely ran around on campus, and went out for walks more often. Then I stayed outside during the summer vacation. Then in September, although I walked around, there were many places I didn’t go to. Maybe there were new members. I can’t say for sure, it’s normal if I haven’t seen it before.

He shook his head and stopped thinking about what happened just now. Whether there were many new members or not had nothing to do with him, and then he walked slowly along the main road.

When passing by the building of the School of Physics, Zheng Tan glanced over there and happened to see the three-wheeled electric vehicle parked not far from the door. The border sheep near the vehicle was sniffing around on the grass. As for the old man, there were three people standing at the door of the building, one was the old man riding a bicycle, one he didn't recognize, and the third one, Zheng Tan, was familiar.

Speaking of which, it has indeed been a while since I saw Buddha. Thinking about it, Buddha is also a very busy man.

Buddha is still the same as usual, with a sense of seriousness on his face that never goes away, and he is full of aura when he stands there. However, the other two people obviously also have some status. Judging from the way they speak, they are not so restrained, but very... Casually, it seems that these three people are all acquaintances.

Zheng Tan was still some distance away from the gate of the School of Physics. Originally, he had no intention of getting close. He just passed by while walking. But when Zheng Tan was about to leave, the border collie who was sniffing wild flowers on the grass saw Zheng Tan. , immediately ran towards Zheng Tan with his tail swung, looking very excited.

Zheng Tan: "..." Paralyzed, seeing just a cat, this dog is so excited!

Ignoring the dog that was jumping around in front of him as if it was full of energy, Zheng Tan continued to follow the original route.

The old man on the bike was talking to his two friends, but he was also paying attention to his dog. He glanced over there when he saw his dog rushing out of the corner of his eye.

"Huh? It seems to be the black cat I saw on the road." The old man said.

The other two people also looked over there, especially Buddha.

"Black Carbon?!"

"What? Ye He, do you know that cat? Whose cat does it belong to?" the old man asked.

Ye He is Buddha's real name. The students named Buddha because his name was similar to Yehenala and his official aura was quite strong, so they gave him this name. The teachers all called him "Dean Ye", "Professor Ye", and "Teacher Ye". Only those of similar acquaintance and status would call her Ye He.

"Tan Fang, call your dog over quickly and stop biting the cat." Buddha said to the old man.

"It's okay. Coke won't really bite him. He just wants to find a friend to play with. He just came here not long ago and hasn't met many friends yet. He's so excited because he saw new friends. My son also had a black cat at home before. I had no company at home, so I pestered the cat to play. Unfortunately, the cat ran away as soon as he saw it. The more he ran, the more he chased him away. The cat was always scared and hid on the high cabinet. Now I brought Coca-Cola over. It is lonely at home. , I could tell when I was on the road just now, I guess it feels that cats that look like that are like old friends, and they feel close to each other."

The old man told what happened on the road just now. Tan Fang's first impression of Zheng Tan was: This cat is either too stupid or too bold. Otherwise, how could he be so embarrassed when seeing a dog many times bigger than himself? Calm?

"Ye He, do you think that cat has an IQ problem or something?" Tan Fang asked Buddha.

"Nonsense, that cat is smart, and it's not afraid of dogs. It lives in the East District Courtyard, and belongs to a teacher over there in the School of Biological Sciences. This cat is very famous in the East District Courtyard, and almost everyone there knows it. . I only knew it because of a student. Tan Fang, call your dog back quickly!" Fo Ye was still worried that the dog would be harmful to Zheng Tan.

"Okay." The old man called the dog back, but he was thinking that he would take the dog for a walk after dinner today.

Tan Fang just moved to the West District compound this summer. He used to live outside. This year, because his granddaughter was admitted to Chuhua University, he decided to go to school and live with his granddaughter so that he can take care of her more. He really doesn't understand many things about school.

When Zheng Tan continued to walk around the school, he didn't know that the old man riding an electric bicycle was everywhere asking about him.

You wouldn't know if you didn't ask, and Tan Fang was really surprised when he asked. Although he knew that these things were incomplete and exaggerated, he could tell from these things that the cat was quite good, especially when it came to catching thieves. They say dogs are nosy when they catch mice, but what about cats when they catch thieves? All the dog's work was done. As for the credibility of this, it is just a rumor and cannot be fully believed. However, there may be no reason for the groundless rumors. I still took the time to go and have a look. Finally, my dog ​​found a playmate in the school. I was idle and went to check it out. It’s good to watch.

After dinner.

Zheng Tan lay on the sofa, pulling his ears, and looked at the old man and the dog in the living room with a very reluctant look.

Next to the sofa, Jiao Yuan and Xiao Youzi are surrounding the border collie named "Coke". I wonder if it is because dogs are more likely to arouse children's enthusiasm. Jiao Yuan and Xiao Youzi's attitude towards this border collie good.

As for Jiao Ma, she was chatting with the old man named Tan with a warm smile on her face.

Tan Fang only said that he was a retired teacher from the School of Physics, but Mother Jiao had some discernment, and she knew from the casualness with which the old man in front of her said Buddha's name that he had a similar identity to Buddha.

For a big man with a similar status to Buddha, Mother Jiao felt somewhat nervous. Even though the man in front of her seemed very easy-going, Mother Jiao did not dare to be careless. Getting to know more powerful people, regardless of whether they are from Dad Jiao's college, will always be good for Dad Jiao when he comes back. These old men are very capable. Therefore, Mother Jiao has always been quite polite.

When it comes to communication between people, pets can often lead to faster familiarity and closer intimacy. The old man mainly talked about pets, and also led Jiao's mother to talk about his cat. Unknowingly, the pressure in Jiao's mother's heart was reduced a lot. However, the smile on Mother Jiao's face soon froze.

"I now take Coke out for a ride every week. Since your cat is so sensible and goes out often, when I take Coke out, I will also take your cat out for a walk." Tan Fang He said it as if he was helping by the way.

Mother Jiao: "..." Why do you like to take your own cats outside? !
