Chapter Seventy-Four: Escape at Night

"Knock Knock"

A knock at the door woke up a man and two cats who were still asleep in the house.

"It's coming. ”

Answering loudly, the old man hurriedly lifted the thin blanket on his body and walked to the door.

The room was a little dim, Chu Sheng glanced at the clock and found that it had come to half past six in the afternoon.

Looking out of the window, the western sky had already been dyed a deep orange by the setting sun.

Yawning and stretching, Chu Sheng jumped down from the sofa and ran to the bowl of water and licked it.

Tsai Tsai was still lying lazily on the sofa, unwilling to move, feeling that he had not fully woken up. However, Tsai Tsai was also very curious about the visitors, so he put on a posture of leaning back with his four paws facing the sky and looked at the door.

Turning on the light in the living room, the old man gently pushed the door open with a twist on the doorknob.

"Hello uncle~"

As soon as she saw the old man, Fangfang, who was standing at the door waiting, immediately shouted sweetly.

"Fangfang is here?"

Chu Sheng, who was drinking water in the house, immediately ran over happily.

The old man nodded and smiled: "Xiao Zhang is off work, let's pick up the oranges." ”

"Well, I see that the orange is not at home, I guess it is still with you, so I came over, today is really troublesome Uncle you. ”

"No, it's not a hassle at all. Today, it's the oranges that trouble me, it's me who troubles it, and the oranges help me walk the boy in the morning. Oh yes, the orange neck Huang Bo said it's not a big deal, you will be fine in two days, you don't have to worry too much. ”

"Really? That's great. ”

Hearing that Chu Sheng had no major problems with his neck, Fang Fang was obviously also very happy.

"Is the house cleaned up? Is there a lot of things? Do you need me to ask Huang Bo to help?"

Facing the old man's care, Fangfang hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no, Ma Xiaofu and I have almost moved yesterday, and there are still some trivial things, so it should be good to clean up today." ”

"Oh, that's good. If you are in trouble, just say it, and the uncle will definitely help if he can help. Okay, since you're still busy, I won't delay your efforts, go back quickly, and bring oranges to play when you have time. ”

"Well, goodbye, uncle. Tangerine, goodbye to uncle. ”

Screaming at Fangfang, Chu Sheng waved his paws at the door to the old man and the boy in the house, and then went downstairs with Fangfang.

As soon as she returned to her place, Fangfang was busy tidying up again.

Chu Sheng originally wanted to help, but later found that he couldn't move large things, and he couldn't take small things, so staying in the house would get in the way, and he was very suspicious of making trouble.

Fangfang, who was hurriedly cleaning up, couldn't stand it anymore, and grabbed Chu Sheng's neck and put it next to the privet tree.

There is no need to use Fang Fangming to say, Chu Sheng also understands this meaning.

Looking at Fangfang who returned to the house, Chu Sheng shrugged his shoulders and sighed helplessly in his heart: "It's really difficult to be a good cat." ”

Since he didn't need his own help, Chu Sheng was happy. Stretching out his claws and slashing up a few times, Chu Sheng came to the branch steadily.

Choosing a comfortable position to lie down, Chu Sheng began to shake his front paws and tail boringly.

At 8 o'clock, Ma Xiaofu returned home happily with a bag.

Seeing that Fangfang had already packed up, Ma Xiaofu put the bag aside without saying a word, and began to carry the large items upstairs.

According to the packaging of the bag and the oil stains on it, Chu Sheng guessed that Ma Xiaofu was likely to buy something delicious, so he hurriedly slipped down from the tree and ran into the garage.

Even if the bag was tied, how could it hide Chu Sheng's nose.

Sniffing lightly, Chu Sheng had already determined that the contents of the bag were roast chicken.

"Yes, you can eat beef at noon, and there is roast chicken at night, this is called life~"

Squinting, Chu Sheng happily shook the tip of his tail.

After cleaning up the sundries and cooking the rice again, Fangfang also hurriedly joined the delivery team.

Once again, they were busy until 10 o'clock in the evening, and Ma Xiaofu and Fangfang completely completed the moving work.

Tired lying on the sofa and watching TV for a while, when her strength recovered a little, Fangfang got up and went to the kitchen to cook some light cucumber egg soup.

Pulling the table open, the rice was brought out, and after opening the bag that Ma Xiaofu brought back in the evening, Ma Xiaofu and Fangfang ate it with taste.

Chu Sheng also got a sumptuous dinner, a bowl of egg soup that came out of the pot in advance without salt, four pieces of pure chicken without skin and bones, and a bowl full of spiky cat food.

Dinner ended half an hour later, and the time had come to 11 o'clock. It's too late, and I have to go to work tomorrow, and after Ma Xiaofu and Fangfang took turns to take a shower, they said goodnight to Chu Sheng.

There was no one to play with, so Chu Sheng had to watch TV in the living room with a cat very bored.

Moving upstairs has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that the accommodation is much more comfortable than before, but the disadvantage is that you can't go out and play anytime and anywhere.

If it had been placed at this time before, Chu Sheng would have stayed at home, and would have gone out with the tanuki cat a long time ago.

I don't know if it's because he slept too long in the afternoon, Chu Sheng kept seeing two o'clock in the morning, and he was still unusually energetic, and he didn't feel sleepy at all.

"It's boring, I don't know what the tanuki is doing..."

Turning off the TV in boredom, Chu Sheng wagged his tail and pillowed his front paws, tilted his head to look out the window and guessed.

"Maybe that tanuki guy is going around catching mice?"

With an idea, Chu Sheng began to imagine the appearance of the tanuki cat chasing the mouse all over the street.

However, Chu Sheng quickly shook his head and denied this speculation.

Chu Sheng recently brought a lot of cat food and canned food to the tanuki guy, and according to the time, it shouldn't have been eaten yet, since there is food, there should be no need for the tanuki cat to catch mice.

"If it's not catching mice, it's not teasing frogs, right?"

Thinking of the frog, Chu Sheng wanted to laugh a little, especially after catching the frog, poking his butt with his paws, watching the long jump competition was very interesting.

However, Chu Sheng quickly denied this conjecture.

Because the tanuki guy doesn't seem to be very interested in frogs, it usually only pokes the frog's butt when Chu Sheng is playing.

"Boring, boring... I don't know if that guy came to play with me......"

Thinking about it, Chu Sheng felt a little stunned.

Jumping down from the sofa and running to the door, Chu Sheng stared at the doorknob that was more than one meter high.

"It stands to reason that this doorknob, seeing that Ma Xiaofu and Fangfang usually don't use much force when they usually rotate, it should be easy to open. I can't twist and unscrew like a human with one claw, but I can make up for it with two claws, and maybe I can succeed. ”

Thinking like this, Chu Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but nodded.

If you want to reach the doorknob, you naturally need to use foreign objects, otherwise, with Chu Sheng's height, it will never be able to reach it. And this foreign object, Chu Sheng glanced at it and felt that the chair next to him for eating was very suitable.

"You have to be gentle, otherwise you will definitely wake up Ma Xiaofu and Fangfang, if that's the case, then it's going to be troublesome. ”

Taking a deep breath, Chu Sheng started the first move with his butt against the chair.

"Squeak--"

A somewhat shrill sound sounded, and the chair slammed violently.

"Isn't this chair iron? Why is it so light?"

The chair that he thought was very heavy turned out to be unexpectedly light, which Chu Sheng never expected.

"Things are not going well......"

Glancing at the direction of the bedroom, Chu Sheng hurriedly returned to the sofa and pretended to sleep.

"Plop plop—"

In the quiet living room, Chu Sheng, who was a thief, could clearly hear his every heartbeat.

Nervously pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the movement in the bedroom next door, and after five minutes, after confirming that Ma Xiaofu and Fangfang really hadn't woken up, Chu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Quickly jumping down from the sofa again, Chu Sheng came to the sofa again.

With the lesson just now, Chu Sheng started with the slightest strength this time and slowly increased.

"Squeak-" "Squeak-" "Squeak-"

With Chu Sheng's rhythmic push, the sound of the chair sliding slightly began to sound in the silent living room.

This faint sound has already been transmitted to the bedroom after passing through the soundproofing of the door panel.

After hundreds of efforts, Chu Sheng finally moved the chair to the door.

Bowing and jumping, Chu Sheng jumped on the chair lightly.

Holding the doorknob with his two paws, Chu Sheng began to try to spin it.

"Click-"

"Sure enough!"

Chu Sheng, who felt the doorknob turning, suddenly raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Open the sesame door. ”

shouted happily in his heart, and the iron door was successfully unscrewed open by Chu Sheng and gently pushed out a slit.

"Success!"

Jumping off the chair happily, Chu Sheng deftly squeezed through the crack in the door.

Gently pushing the door back and forth with his claws a few times, and after confirming that he heard the sound of the lock popping out, Chu Sheng happily rushed downstairs.

Coming to the corner of the first floor, Chu Sheng couldn't help but twitch his face a few times.

Last night, it was obviously an iron door that was torn open by a hook, but now it is a sign of closing.

"It's not so unlucky, is it? I can't let me spend the night at the door for the first time I escape......, right?

With the prayer in his heart, Chu Sheng hurriedly rushed to the door and pushed the iron gate with his paws.

"Squeak-" sounded, and the iron door actually opened a crack.

"It's okay, it's just that it looks like it, and it's not really locked....."

With a long sigh of relief, Chu Sheng ran out with his ass against the iron gate.

A black shadow quickly rushed down from the privet tree not far away, directly knocking Chu Sheng, who had just gone out, to the ground.

Judging from the smell and the weight on his body, Chu Sheng knew that it must be the Tanuki Cat.

"This guy can't find himself and is waiting for me here, right?"

A little surprised, and a little moved, Chu Sheng and the tanuki cat scuffled happily at the door.
