Chapter 30: The Milk Cat
Wu Fatzi chatted with He Chuan for a few words, and then left.
He still has a lot to do, including going to the hospital to find out.
The lively old street seems to be gradually returning to calm.
In the afternoon, the sun came out outside.
He Chuan moved the chair outside the store, holding the thermos cup and basking in the sun.
The smog in Rongcheng is more serious, especially in the JN area, the air is gray and gray, as if the sky has not yet dawned.
But it's nice to be sunny, it doesn't look too cold, it doesn't look too hot.
Basking in the sun, He Chuan was a little sleepy.
He took a small blanket and put it over his body, ready to squint for a while.
"Hey, I'm telling you, two people just died in this neighborhood. β
There was a voice coming from next door.
He Chuan turned his head and saw that the source of the sound was a few guests from the small restaurant next door.
The most important thing in Rongcheng is a variety of restaurants, such as pet shops, there are lo-mei shops, fried chicken restaurants, and hot pot restaurants next door.
There are also two small restaurants, the faΓ§ade is not large, there are a few tables in the store, and a few more tables are placed outside the store, and the business is still booming.
The one who spoke was the guest sitting outside the hotel.
On a small square table, three large men sit.
One of them, a middle-aged man, holding chopsticks in his hand, was half-bent over, looking mysterious.
"Dead, wouldn't it?" someone next to him couldn't help but ask.
This kind of thing is quite unusual for them.
Usually there is a mourning hall downstairs, and some people ask questions, not to mention that there are two dead at this time.
"Hey, I can't lie to you, I didn't see the police coming?"
The man who spoke was not happy, his brows furrowed, and he looked angry.
"Okay, okay, don't pretend, tell me what's going on. β
The other person began to urge, looking curious, "Isn't it just a dead man, why are even the police here?"
The man smiled "hehe", took a sip of the wine glass on the table, smashed it, and then continued: "The family at No. 7 in Building 2 knows each other, right?"
The house number of the old house is different from the new building.
If a building has one staircase and three households, then the house numbers on the first floor are 1, 2, and 3, and the second floor is 4, 5, and 6.
Building 2 No. 7, that is, the house on the 3rd floor of the 2nd building.
"Who, I don't know. The other two shook their heads.
"Hey, it's the man in the family who is paralyzed in the lower half of his body and usually lies in a wheelchair......"
As he spoke, the man made a horizontal gesture on his chest with his right hand and lifted his crotch upward.
"Oh...... It's them. The two of them showed expressions of sudden realization, "You mean that the old couple is dead?"
"The man died, I heard that he had been dead for several days, and the woman drank pesticides and is still lying in the hospital. The man said.
"What's going on, how is it so decent, suddenly I can't think about it. β
"Who knows, maybe I don't want to live. β
"Wouldn't it, after all these years, suddenly I don't want to live?"
"Who knows, but if it were me, I would have chosen to die, this half-dead lying in bed, what is it. β
"That's what you say...... But you say, did the old man die by himself, or did the woman can't help it, and give him ......"
"Hey, I don't know, but their family is quite poor, the man is lying in bed, his son and daughter are not around, and the woman has to go out to pick up garbage in her seventies and eighties. I've heard people say that their homes are full of garbage, and in the summer, the whole corridor smells like it, and I don't know how they stay. β
"That's miserable, so why don't his children take care of them?"
"How good can that be, I heard that the money for children to go to school is borrowed...... It is said that his son came over and had a big quarrel at home, as if he was going to sell the house or something, and the whole building heard it, and I don't know if these two people couldn't think about it because of this matter, and their brains were hot, so they simply ......"
"Speaking of which, I've been watching the news for the past two days, and a man has ...... his mother."
A few people chatted and chatted and talked about other places.
He Chuan lay on the chair and didn't fall asleep for a long time.
The sun shone on his face, and his eyes hurt.
"It's so dazzling......" He Chuan muttered, took out an eye patch, and put it on his face.
He pulled up the small blanket to cover his chest, shrunk into the chair, and fell asleep in a daze.
La Jiao stepped over and squatted down beside He Chuan.
Two jewel-like eyes, scanning passers-by back and forth......
The day passed so peacefully.
There were a few old customers of the pet shop in the middle, who asked about the cat food and cat litter they had ordered before on WeChat.
He Chuan took a moment, ran a few times, and delivered the goods over.
Although the thing is not heavy, it is a little too many times to run, and it is also a little tiring.
He Chuan began to consider whether he should buy a small electric donkey like the shopkeeper.
It's also more convenient to usually deliver something.
There was no business in the evenings.
Except for a few guests who came out to shop after dinner, no one came in to patronize.
He Chuan pressed around eight o'clock, closed the door of the store, packed up his things, and went home with Lajiao.
As soon as I entered the community, I saw a little girl lying on the ground, screaming "tsk" under the car.
"Mimi, come out, I've got something delicious here. Peng Jiayi took a ham sausage and shook it under the car.
He Chuan stopped and watched for a while, Peng Jiayi shouted there for a long time, and there was no movement under the car.
Maybe she was tired from lying on her stomach, Peng Jiayi got up from the ground, wiped the sweat on her forehead, and muttered: "This cat is really ......"
"What are you doing?" He Chuan asked.
"Ah, it's the boss, I saw a cat under the car, it looks quite small. I'm afraid that it will be accidentally crushed by the car, so I'm going to get it out first. Peng Jiayi looked back at He Chuan, subconsciously retracted the hand holding the ham sausage, and said a little embarrassed.
"Hmm. He Chuan answered, and then glanced at Lajiao, "Go, bring it out." β
Spicy Jiao "meowed" and dodged into the bottom of the car.
After a while, he climbed out from under the car with a kitten in his mouth.
It took the kitten out of its mouth, placed it on the ground, and then paused aside and licked its paws.
He Chuan bent down and took a look.
This should be a small milk kitten, only about the size of a palm.
The hair on his body is very sparse, his eyes are a little open, and his voice sounds a little weak.
After landing, the little milk cat instinctively wanted to run under the car.
Spicy Jiao "meowed", the little milk cat stopped, sniffed around, and turned to Spicy Jiao's body.
"Wow, boss, your cat is amazing!" Peng Jiayi looked shocked.
She put the ham in her hand to the milk cat's mouth, and the milk cat ignored her, and drilled under the spicy belly one by one.
