Chapter 6: The smoky stray cat
"You...... Can you hear me?" Cui Tao wagged his tail, his voice excited. He couldn't believe that the unattractive cat in front of him could speak.
The stray cat sat on the cold concrete floor and said disdainfully: "Rare and strange, in this community, many cats and dogs can talk." ”
Smoky Voice! This stray cat turned out to be Smoky Voice! low and penetrating. If you become a singer, I don't know how many people will be fascinated. It seems that he won't be bored here, at least here, there is a cat that can talk.
"I'll just ask you, is there any dog food?" the stray cat urged impatiently when he saw Cui Tao motionless.
"Yes, you wait. Finally met a friend who could talk, Cui Tao was excited.
He hurried to the living room, grabbed the edge of the dog bowl, and brought out all the remaining dog food. He walked across the yard and put the dog food in front of the stray cats.
Stray cats put their paws through the iron fence and expertly put a piece of dog food into their mouths. "It tastes good, and I know it's imported as soon as I eat it. I was a step late outside today and didn't get any leftovers. Eat some dog food, it's better to be full than hungry. ”
With a unique and rich smoky voice, Cui Tao was almost fascinated when he heard it.
Since the implementation of garbage classification in the magic capital, it has been a catastrophe for these stray cats. I can no longer dig through the trash cans for food, and I barely survive on the fixed feeding points of a limited number of cat lovers. And it's often gone when it's late, so stray cats sometimes come out in the middle of the night to beg for something to eat.
The stray cat thinks that the dog bowl is far away, so he pulls out a row of dog food with his paws and puts it in front of him.
"Why haven't I seen you before, newcomer?" the stray cat asked as she ate.
"Yes, it's only been two days. ”
The stray cat bowed up, glanced into the yard, and said, "This family is not bad, it has been almost three years since I moved here for the sake of the children's school district house." The man is a phoenix man, and the woman is a local, with a bit of a family background. This three-bedroom apartment in the city center cost a small 10 million, but the mortgage is also a lot. His daughter is a bit autistic, but it's mild, so don't worry too much......"
Cui Tao thought back to the medicine bottle in the little girl Huang Jiaxi's room, as well as her indifferent demeanor after returning home today, as well as the worries in some conversations between her parents, and then it occurred to her that the little girl had a little autism.
"By the way, can you do me a favor?" Cui Tao asked sincerely.
Help?The stray cat stared at the big cat with puzzled eyes. "I, how can I, a cat who has a problem even eating, help?"
"I want to... Can you help me get out. ”
"What? you want to go out, you're crazy!" the stray cat choked and coughed a few times when he ate the dog food in his mouth. It glanced at Cui Tao, as if it was interrogating a prisoner. The stray cat shook his head and said: "What's so good outside, like me, you have eaten the last meal, and you don't have the next meal?" You are living the most comfortable life now, and many cats and dogs outside are too late to envy you." ”
As the stray cat spoke, it rubbed its back against the iron fence a few times, feeling a little itchy on its back. "Old watch, help me scratch the back a few times, it's itchy and uncomfortable. ”
Cui Tao didn't hesitate, stretched out a front paw, scratched the back of the stray cat a few times.
"Push harder...... Well, it's comfortable. The stray cat enjoyed it and continued, "It's all my mother's birth, why did my mother make me like this?"
It turned out that this stray cat had white hair except for its black face.
"I suspect that my mom gave birth to me and put my face on the ground. If it weren't for this black face, I would have eaten with my face a long time ago, and I was adopted by a rich and noble family, so how could I be so down? So old watch, cherish your life in the moment. ”
"But, I'm not a dog, I don't want to be fed by my owner, I'm not used to living here, I yearn for freedom......" Cui Tao blurted out.
"Freedom? How many pounds of cat food is freedom worth? Sometimes reality is more cruel than the truth. The stray cat sighed, touched its big belly, and began to eat dog food again. "The dogs in this community are fierce generals, and the cats are not idle. Have you ever heard of the four heavenly kings who debuted in the cat group? Flying generals, gunsmoke, long howls, and shocking strings...... I saw them with my own eyes and knocked away a golden retriever from the outer zone. Let's talk about the bully dog at the gate, its nickname is Fury, and the average puppy will be scared when he hears his name. If you're stared at by its eyes, you'll have nightmares. I never walk through the main gate, but luckily I can fly the eaves and walk the wall......"
Is it the dog he just met at Dongdaemun? It was indeed very terrifying, and Cui Tao felt scared when he thought about it, especially the murderous aura, which made him creepy.
"When I walked into your community, I didn't dare to pee casually and leave a smell, for fear that my life would be in danger. The stray cat sighed.
Stray cats have traveled all their lives, making their homes everywhere, seeing and hearing more, and having rich social experience.
"Last night, I saw a husky, and it looked very fierce. Cui Tao added.
The stray cat was stunned for a moment and replied: "Eighty percent of it is it, and its nickname is the Great White Shark." Just listen to the name, you can make up for it yourself, how powerful it is. ”
Cui Tao couldn't help but shudder after hearing this. He hadn't considered these new situations before. Is it so unfriendly between dogs? Is there a legal constraint, is there a code of ethics for dogs?
"I'm sure there are those out there who mix well, just like you. Cui Tao said again.
"Don't learn from me, only I know how miserable I am outside. It's not me who hits you, if your little body leaves this yard and is outside, you will be killed in seconds!"
This sentence is heart-piercing. However, this stray cat is a senior, and it should not be deliberately scaring Cui Tao, but a kind warning.
Cui Tao was very sad when he heard this, in the eyes of stray cats, he was not even as good as a dog.
"Okay, it's time for me to go, I can't stay too long, lest I be gossiped about by the other cats and dogs...... Still, thank you for the supper, I owe you a favor. The stray cat stretched and yawned widely.
"Tomorrow night...... Are you still here? I've got dog food here. Cui Tao was a little reluctant.
The stray cat glanced at Cui Tao and said earnestly: "Old watch, tomorrow or the accident, I don't know which one will come first." Don't worry too much about me, just let it be!"
"My name is French Fries, do you have a name?"
The stray cat thought for a moment and said, "I don't have a name...... However, there are some cats out there that occasionally call me bard. ”
Bard?good poetic name...... May fit its wandering personality. After saying that, the stray cat slowly disappeared into the night.
After listening to the stray cat's words, Cui Tao felt that he had underestimated the danger here. He looked at it, and his heart was terrified, at the end of the night, how many unknowns were still hidden?
He was about to pack up the dog bowl and go home, when he suddenly found that there was a piece of sausage hidden under the dog food.
This sausage...... Could it be the little girl Huang Jiaxi, secretly left it for herself?
At this moment, Cui Tao's heart was mixed.
He stuck out his tongue, licked the delicious sausage, and took a big bite with his teeth.
The taste of the sausage is so delicious, almost the same as the sausage I have eaten before. "It's delicious, it's delicious. Cui Tao lay on the ground, chewing the sausage in a big gulp, and ate it cleanly after a while.
He glanced at his dog's body and curly hair, and a strange sensation flooded his body.
Can we forget the past and embrace a new beginning?
In the darkness of the night, he did not know, and there was no one to answer......
