Chapter 4: Stray Cat Rescue Center
The police station was making notes, and when Mu Xiao arrived, the first thing that caught his eye was three thin boys, with backpacks next to the chair, and they were estimated to be seventeen or eighteen years old. To her surprise, their faces were blue and purple, and their bodies were even more embarrassed, and the dust and dirt seemed to be rolling on the ground.
Shen Chengyi leaned back in his chair slightly and answered the question quietly, and occasionally raised his head to look at the police. There were only a few minor abrasions on his face, his coat was torn, and the scattered blood stains had turned rusty red.
Judging from his size and height, Shen Cheng did not suffer at all, and he could even be said to have an advantage, but his courage to make Mu Xiao "impress" him again.
"You're here!"
Glimpsing Mu Xiao coming in, a smile appeared on Shen Chengyi's lifeless face, the wound was tearing because of the too big movement, he subconsciously "hissed", stretched out his hand to touch but didn't dare to touch the wound on his face.
Mu Xiao couldn't help frowning when she saw his hideous and funny face, she stepped forward and said in a calm voice, "I'm sorry to cause you trouble." ”
"I didn't cause any trouble! I'm not on the road, can I draw a knife to help!" Shen Chengyi defended himself.
The police officer turned his head to look at her, a little surprised. The girl in front of her was just wearing a simple dress, but her eyes were very smart, and there was a rare cold temperament between her eyebrows, and her facial features were not amazing, but they were also attractive.
Look at Shen Chengyi, who is unconvinced with his face written on his face in the corner, how can he not connect her with this ruffian boy.
"Sit down, sit down. The police officer greeted Mu Xiao and briefly explained what had happened.
Basically, Shen Chengyi heard the little milk cat screaming on the road, and when he heard the sound, he went over and saw that they were bullying a little milk cat that was less than three months old, and he was happy about it. Shen Chengyi stepped forward to stop him, but he was provoked and nosy by the other party, and he couldn't hold back for a while before he fought.
The morning exercise uncle who passed by was afraid that something would happen to the police, but fortunately, after mediation, the two sides have reached a synthesis, and the three high school students admit that they are at fault, and because of the academic pressure, they transfer their grievances to the little milk cat. Except for the skin injury, it is not a big problem, as long as a certain amount of compensation is paid, this matter will be over.
Mu Xiao walked up to the high school students, squatted down to look at their injuries, took out a note from his bag, wrote his phone number, and handed it to them: "If your parents have any problems after you go back, you can call this number to contact me." ”
"Don't worry! As for me, who has studied sanda for more than ten years, it is already very light!" Shen Chengyi knew in his heart, if he really wanted to do it, I am afraid that he would be lying in the hospital by now.
Hearing Shen Chengyi say that he had learned Sanda Mu Xiao was not surprised, with his character, he could grow so big without incident, how could he not do it if he didn't know how to save his life?
"For the sake of a cat! Young people are impulsive. The police officer said with emotion that he had seen many fights and brawls, but it was rare to do it for a stray cat.
"As for it, of course, even stray cats are life. ”
Shen Chengyi replied without thinking, he stood up and moved his muscles and bones, he hadn't exercised for too long, and the soreness spread all over his body. His eyes were fixed on the water dispenser, and he looked around and asked, "Do you have disposable cups?" I'm going to feed the kittens some water. ”
The police officer helplessly pointed to the direction of the second-floor cabinet: "You can only take one, it's a waste." ”
Coming out of the police station, there is an abandoned park not far away, which has not been taken care of for a long time, and the vegetation is still growing luxuriantly. Mu Xiao followed Shen Chengyi for ten minutes and didn't even see a cat shadow, felt that there was little hope, and asked, "Will you go somewhere else?"
"I didn't take notes until I settled it here, and it was injured and probably wouldn't have run very far. ”
Shen Cheng half-squatted, his hands supporting the sticky dirt, tilting his head to explore the corners that were not easy to find, his tone would be lower and clearer than usual when he spoke seriously, Mu Xiao nodded, and turned over the bushes to help find it.
Suddenly smelling the smell of nicotine in the fragrance of plants and trees, Mu Xiao turned his head and saw Shen Chengyi a few meters away with a cigarette on his lips, smoking lightly. He has a skillful posture, and he looks like an old smoker, but Mu Xiao has never smelled smoke on him in his memory.
"Suddenly I was a little addicted, and I got two puffs. ”
Shen Chengyi looked at Shang Muxiao, as if he had been caught doing something bad and snickering, and when he said this, he lowered his voice, not knowing whether he was talking to himself or explaining something.
At this time, if there was no "meow meow-" from the depths of the forest, Shen Cheng extinguished the remaining half of the cigarette, walked around along the sound, and finally stopped in front of a small stone mountain made of large stones.
He bent down and saw a pair of shiny pupils in the gap, and he could feel its fear and helplessness. The problem is that it is difficult to penetrate a woman's arm in the gap between the stones, so how can you get the cat out?
"I'll come. Mu Xiao lifted her right sleeve and volunteered, she gestured with her arm and felt that she could give it a try. At this time, I don't care about being allergic to cat hair, and anyone who hears the wail of milk in the milk will worry about it.
"Don't make a fuss. Shen Chengyi was more like a commanding tone, pulling Mu Xiao's wrist and pulling her back.
Rao is that he doesn't know Mu Xiao anymore, and from the old lady's mouth, he also knows that Mu Xiao's job is a tea master, if there is a scar on the arm, it will definitely affect the appearance, not to mention that her arm is slender and white, and the delicate skin texture can almost be seen in the sun, which is really reluctant.
Without waiting for Mu Xiao to continue, Shen Chengyi used brute force to try to break the two stones more apart, perhaps because of the perennial wind and sun, there was no difficulty as imagined. Mu Xiao understood what Shen Cheng meant, and stepped forward to help, but her little strength could be said to have little effect.
The gap between the stones looked wider than just now, and Shen Cheng reached in with a lot of effort to rescue the kitten, and after breathing in the fresh air, it barked more thoroughly. Although there is a lot of mud on its body, it can be seen that it is a cat that has always been snow-white, and it is only the size of a palm. The right foot seemed to have been injured by man, and the blood that flowed out of it stuck to the white hair around it.
Shen Cheng took off the coat as its temporary nest, and naturally handed it to Mu Xiao, Mu Xiao hesitated to take it, its skeleton was so soft that people didn't dare to hold it hard, for fear of touching its wounds. Because of fear, he kept screaming, and his voice attracted pity.
"What should I do next?send it to the pet hospital?" Mu Xiao continued to soothe the kitten, and her dark eyes became uncomfortable.
Shen Chengyi's deep eyes were thoughtful, and after a while, he said, "Take you to a place, you came by car, right?" ”
Mu Xiao flipped out the car key and handed it to Shen Chengyi, followed by sitting in the passenger seat, the kitten cub on his lap was also tired, and he was napping with his eyes squinted cross-legged.
Looking out through the glass window, the direction they were driving was getting more and more away from the downtown area, and sometimes she saw Shen Chengyi's side face concentrating on driving, which felt like she knew him again.
Half an hour later, the car drove into the "Stray Cat Rescue Station", and the wooden sign hanging on the iron gate read. The doorman who was in charge of opening the door saw this unfamiliar license plate for the first time, and when he walked in, he saw that it was Shen Chengyi, and greeted warmly: "Here, there is still a parking space inside." ”
"Thank you!"
It seems that Shen Chengyi is a frequent visitor, so it's no wonder that he is familiar with the way. After the car stopped, Mu Xiao got out of the car with the cat cub in her arms, and was suddenly cute when she saw the sight in front of her.
The conditions and facilities of the stray pet rescue center in my impression are relatively limited, but just these high-rise buildings here know that the specifications are different from ordinary rescue centers. The graffiti on the wall is the Q version of the cat image, and all kinds of anthropomorphic words poke at people's cute points. Going further is a large bulletin board that records the changes in each cat before and after adoption.
"Chengyi is here, I haven't seen him grow taller for a while, and he looks more energetic than last time. ”
A pair of old men walked up to them, and although they were full of gray hair, Grandma looked amiable and Grandpa seemed very talkative. Shen Chengyi ran forward to help Uncle Cheng and quipped: "How many years have I stopped developing, how can I grow taller, you are presbyopia again!"
Raising his eyes and catching a glimpse of Mu Xiao standing in place stupidly, Shen Chengyi walked over and pushed her: "What are you doing in a daze, call someone! This is Uncle Cheng, this is Mrs. Cheng, they are the person in charge of the rescue center here." ”
Mu Xiao reacted a little nervously, and shouted sweetly: "Uncle Cheng is good, Mrs. Cheng is good, my name is Mu Xiao." ”
Mrs. Cheng looked at each other and smiled, nodded with satisfaction, her weather-beaten eyes were very pleased, and the smile deepened. Usually Shen Chengyi came by himself, but he didn't expect to bring the big girl today, and he really had a chance!
"Yo, what's wrong with this little kitten, why is this leg still injured!Who bullied you?" Mrs. Cheng was the first to notice the cat in Mu Xiao's arms, and reached out to carefully touch its head.
"It'......"
Mu Xiao was just about to speak, but Shen Chengyi took the lead in taking over the topic, using his exaggerated body language with an agitated and frustrating explanation, vividly restoring the scene of the crime when he was one against three enemies.
Uncle Cheng and Mrs. Cheng were amused to laugh, Mu Xiao was a little helpless, but she also smiled at the corner of her mouth. The kitten in his arms was woken up by human movement, and the displeased "meow" screamed.
Seeing this, Uncle Cheng arranged: "Otherwise, girl, you and my wife will go to check the kitten's injuries first, it's not early, let's go back after dinner later, Chengyi, go, follow me to cook!"
"It's coming!" Shen Cheng replied, turned around and waved his hand to Mu Xiao, and chased in the direction of Uncle Cheng.
Shen Chengyi can also cook?
Mu Xiao was really shocked, Mrs. Cheng caught the surprise in her eyes, looked at their departing backs and said proudly: "Don't look at Cheng all day long, in fact, this child is sensible, our rescue center can have it now thanks to him......"
Mu Xiao completely agreed with Mrs. Cheng's words, especially after today's incident, she knew that Shen Chengyi was a very kind boy, and even many times his mind was more delicate than that of a girl. But when he misbehaves, it's really a headache.
On the way to the clinic with Mrs. Cheng, Mu Xiao was fortunate to visit here, where every cat was taken care of very carefully, and it was not at all obvious that it had been abandoned. They have their own cat nests and rice bowls, and the activity area is very large, there are dozens of kinds of toys alone, and they are supervised by special people every day, and there are school students who come here to volunteer on weekends.
Mu Xiao was in awe again, she looked at the two orange cats rolling together on the cat climbing frame, and murmured: "The person who invested in this rescue center must be a very loving person." ”
"Do you mean Chengyi? All the equipment here is according to his required standards, and at one time I also thought that it was not necessary for a non-profit rescue organization, but that kid, you know, is very stubborn, did you see the cartoon drawing coming in through the door? ”
