"Great Wall Walls, are there any more celebrations in our store this year?" Tian Momo licked a lollipop and asked with a wink.
"You little guy, don't go to my mother's shop to help, but come to me to eat and drink, it's really unfilial." Cheng Qiang looked distressed, and pointed at Tian Momo.
"Didn't people want to come and see if there was anything they could do to help!" Tian Momo retorted.
"Not filial, not filial." Cheng Qiang chattered, like an old lady.
"You ......" Tian Momo still wanted to argue, but found that he was short of words.
"Ignore him, little Momo!" Mo Qingduo interjected while packing up her things: "He is distressing the planet lollipop in your hand." ”
Tian Momo lowered her head and glanced at the lollipop in her hand, it is the most popular style in recent years, but the taste is very ordinary, and the price is not too expensive, just a few yuan a piece.
Tian Momo looked at Cheng Qiang with disdain and said, "I have always known that the big city wall is the most angry, but I didn't expect it to be so stingy!" Not even a lollipop was given to me. ”
Cheng Qiang was extremely aggrieved, and let Tian Momo, a snack in vain, eat and drink, and in the end, he was even crowned with the big hat of "stingy", and anyone would feel wronged if he was replaced.
"Give me back the lollipop!" Cheng Qiang stretched out his hand and tilted his head to the side. Anyway, after eating it, he didn't believe that Tian Momo would return the lollipop he had eaten back to Cheng Qiang.
"Whoa! Give it back to you! Tian Momo really lived up to Mo Qingduo's expectations, pulled out the lollipop in her mouth and stuffed it into Cheng Qiang's palm, and even twisted it left and right back and forth twice, and passed the addiction fiercely.
"Are you ......" Cheng Qiang was dumbfounded, his wishful thinking was not right, where is Tian Momo that ordinary person? Wouldn't it be boring to be able to easily guess what she wanted to do.
Mo Qingduo rushed over, stretched out two hands to Tian Momo, and shouted, "Give me five!" ”
"Yay!" Tian Momo also shouted extremely cooperatively, and high-fived Mo Qingduo with both hands.
The two of them talked and laughed, snubbing Cheng Qiang, Cheng Qiang squatted in the corner, with a typical angry bun face, and said with a sad face: "They all bullied me...... They all bully me! Or is it the best for our cow candy......"
"Cow Candy?!" It was like a lightning bolt slashing through the sky of several people, Cheng Qiang, Mo Qingduo, and Tian Momo were frozen at the same time, and the movements in their hands were also paused.
They suddenly realized a problem, about the cow candy.
"You two, when was the last time you saw Niu Zatang?" Cheng Qiang asked first, looking nervous.
"It's been about a week since I last saw it." Tian Momo doesn't come to the Linda CC shop often now, the last time she came was two or three days ago, she didn't see Niu Zatang, the last time she came was a week ago, at that time she played with Niu Zatang, she was deeply impressed by this matter, because Niu Zatang was launching a round of crazy and cool attacks on the cat grass on the table, and Tian Momo was not used to it, so she was ravaged in her arms.
"The last time I saw it, it seems like it was four or five days ago." Mo Qingduo recalled carefully before saying.
Cheng Qiang was a little anxious now, and said: "Oops, I've been too busy lately to care about that little cheap cat, it seems that the last time I saw it was four or five days ago." I still remember spitting out the hairball in my spare shoes that day, I don't know if it was intentional or not, and I educated him. ”
"......Forehead" Mo Qingduo and Tian Momo glanced at each other in unison, and their common statement about Cheng Qiang's frequent education of Niu Zatang was: The official addiction is too great, and there are no subordinates, so they have to practice training for cats.
"So that means ...... Niu Zatang is missing?! Tian Momo said in surprise.
"That doesn't have to be ......" Cheng Qiang groaned: "That dead guy often sneaks out to play for a day or two and doesn't come home, and we are so busy that we don't care about it, is it that it came back when others visited the store, ate and drank and then left?" ”
"It's a possibility." Mo Qingduo nodded after a little thought.
Immediately afterwards, the three of them each picked up their mobile phones and had a very tacit understanding to call the classmates who had been on duty in the past few days.
"City wall, who has been on duty these days?" Tian Momo asked while flipping through the address book.
Cheng Qiang reviewed it and said: "Zhang Zhang, Li Minghao, Qi Qi, Du Yun, Mei Lili, Liu Qin, ......"
Mo Qingduo took out a pen from the pen holder at the cash register, quickly wrote down these names, and then made three different marks under the names of these people, and said to Tian Momo and Cheng Qiang: "Cheng Qiang, you call the person who drew the triangle, Xiao Momo is round, I am a horizontal line, speed!" ”
"Good!"
"Okay!"
The three of them split up and started talking to the people on the list.
"Hello? Zhang Zhang...... Phew! Who wants to invite you to dinner! Let me ask you a serious matter, have you ever been back in the past few days? Oh...... Five days ago...... It's equivalent to not saying it! By the way, have you ever added food to its bowl? Nope...... Well, got it. ”
"Hey, Li Minghao, ......"
Twenty minutes later, Cheng Qiang, Mo Qingduo, and Tian Momo had already called all the people on the list, and they were very sure that Niu Zatang had not come back in the past few days, and no one had added cat food to his food bowl, which further confirmed Niu Zatang's disappearance.
"What can I do! This guy can't be caught! Mo Qingduo said worriedly.
"yes, yes! I've also heard that a lot of people take kittens out to make fake lamb! Poor cow sugar won't really ......" Tian Momo said and tears fell.
"Don't think about it so much, maybe the situation is not so pessimistic." Cheng Qiang comforted.
"What are we going to do?" Mo Qingduo is also the master of the six gods, so he had to ask Cheng Qiang's opinion.
"What else can I do, of course, I'm going to go out and find it." Cheng Qiang said dejectedly.
"It's easy to say, where can we find it in such a big place?" Mo Qingduo was a little discouraged.
"That's better than not looking." Tian Momo sobbed.
"Momo is right, let's go find out." Cheng Qiang didn't know the bottom in his heart.
The three of them closed the shop early, assigned their own routes, and went out to look for Niu Zatang.
"Cow Candy!"
Some of the students who passed by often went to the Linda CC shop to hang out, of course, they knew that the shop had a cute little fat beckoning cat, named "Niu Zatang", and when they heard the three of them shouting the name of Niu Zatang, they came to ask about the situation and helped find it. Some classmates also said that they seemed to have seen Niu Zatang recently, but they couldn't tell where they had seen the little yellow fat cat, which made the people looking for them happy. Some of the students were more indifferent, and when they heard it, they didn't hear it, and hurriedly slipped past a few people.
Cheng Qiang went to a nearby copy agency, copied a few photos of Niu Zatang in his mobile phone, typeset and wrote a notice to find a cat, and copied many copies and posted them. Niu Zatang has been wearing a collar around his neck, with its cleverness, unless it encounters an ambush, it is impossible to be caught by others, crossing the road Niu Zatang will see the traffic lights, there are few cars near the school and the speed is slow, and the possibility of being hit is not great, with the cat's not very normal way of thinking, it is very likely that he will go out and go around and not want to go home, but this is the most difficult thing to do.
As we all know, cats especially like to play peek-a-boo, and even the name "peek-a-boo" is based on the characteristics of cats who love to hide, so as long as the cats refuse to come out, you may not be able to find it even if you dig three feet into the ground. That's the most troublesome possibility.
"Could it be that I couldn't stand it and got lost because I was hungry, so I was adopted by selling cuteness with a well-wisher?" Tian Momo put forward her own ideas.
"It's also possible, although Niu Zatang wears a nameplate around his neck with our mobile phone number on it, but if he is really too cute to let it go, it is also very likely." Mo Qingduo said.
"I don't think it's likely!" Cheng Qiang raised objections and said: "That big fat cat knows that it eats a lot at a glance, and ordinary people can afford to adopt it!" If I had picked it up, I wouldn't have been willing to take it in, just look at its lazy and greedy look! ”
"Hey! When is it, still thinking about kidding! Mo Qingduo expressed dissatisfaction.
"Hehe......" Cheng Qiang laughed twice and said: "There is really no other way now, I have already posted the notice of looking for cats, and I have posted it on the Internet, and eighty percent of the people around the school already know the news." There is a ninety percent chance that Niu Zatang, a bear child, is crazy and unwilling to come back, and the child grows up, we can't control it! ”
"It's an irresponsible dad mentality!" Mo Qingduo said angrily.
"With the mentality of a mother like yours, you have to be so strict in everything, which may not be a good thing!" Cheng Qiang sneered.
"The children are lost, and you can still say such things! It's just a matter of being the shopkeeper, can you stop talking about this kind of cool talk now! Mo Qingduo's face was red, and she was really angry.
"Who's the shopkeeper? How many times have you shoveled cat poop? Cheng Qiang said he was very unconvinced.
"Have you taken it with you for a vaccination? Have you taken care of it when you are sick? Mo Qingduo was about to cry.
"That's because I'm not good at this ......"
"Alright, alright! Stop arguing! Tian Momo covered her ears and said irritably.
Cheng Qiang and Mo Qingduo finally stopped talking, and hung their heads angrily and stopped talking.
There was silence in the shop, I really don't know where the little meow of Niu Zatang went, but whether it is a person or an animal, there will always be feelings after being together for a long time, let alone a very humane animal like a cat. It's like a child after raising it for a long time, how can you not care about such a big thing as a disappearance.
"Even if you continue to quarrel like this, until tomorrow morning, Niu Zatang will not be able to come back. It is even possible that it will never come back......" Tian Momo said, sobbing quietly again.
"It's all our fault, no matter how busy we are, we can't ignore nougat, and we haven't seen it for so long, we don't even care......" Mo Qingduo blamed herself.
"I still believe it will come back! Maybe it's peeking at us from some corner and smirking triumphantly! Cheng Qiang was just comforting himself.
"Meow~" Suddenly, outside the door of Linda CC's shop, there was a cat meow, the sound was very faint, and it was a little pale and weak.
"It's Niu Zatang who is back!" Tian Momo shouted excitedly and rushed out, only to see a white cat's back slipping away in fear.
When Cheng Qiang and Mo Qingduo chased them out, they only saw Tian Momo standing at the door alone, and the kitten was gone.
"Is it beef candy? Is it it? Mo Qingduo pulled Tian Momo and asked.
"I ...... I didn't see it clearly, it was running too fast......" Tian Momo said weakly.
"In which direction did it go?" Cheng Qiang is still more practical, and after asking the direction, you can go out to chase it, and maybe you can find Niu Zatang.
"It's ...... on the roof," Tian Momo said helplessly.
This time, Cheng Qiang was really powerless.
The three of them returned to the store again, it was already half past ten in the evening, because it was a cold winter, and there were few students at the back door of the school at this time, only some lonely shop owners were left, who were cleaning up their stores and moods for a day.
"The dorm is going to close now, right? Shall we go back? Mo Qingduo glanced at the wall clock on the wall and asked.
"Even if I go back, I will ask the dormitory manager for half a day before she can open the door. It's better to go back to their respective homes. Tian Momo can go to Tian's mother, and Cheng Qiang and Mo Qingduo can go straight to the villa, fortunately, everyone has a home outside the school, so don't think too much about closing the dormitory door and turning off the lights.
"Was that cow candy just now?" Mo Qingduo was still thinking about the cat that flashed by just now.
"It's not!" Cheng Qiang said with certainty.
"Why?"
"Niu Zatang's voice is not like that, Niu Zatang's voice is strong and full of energy, and he is a boy when he hears it. But the kitten just now, with a soft voice, looked like a girl. ”
"However, the kitten's voice just now was obviously weak, could it be that Niu Zatang was sick or injured and ran back to us for help?"
"No, if that's the case, it won't run away as soon as it sees Momo."
"Well, that's right! And if it's really weak, it won't run to the roof with a sting. (To be continued.) )
