Chapter 96: Catching Insects
That afternoon, Xu Jie wanted to go back to Fujimoto's house, but the big black cat beside him stood up silently, intending to send Xu Jie home as usual.
Although Mo didn't say anything, just stood quietly beside it, Xu Jie could feel it, and Mo still hoped that it would stay.
Think about it since he came back from Kyoto, Xu Jie has never lived in the cat kennel here at the school.
Although Mo would always go to Jiantai's cat kennel to accompany him, the two of them really didn't spend much time alone.
Looking at Mo Hang's big tail that didn't mean to stand up in the ground, Xu Jie knew that it was not in a good mood now.
So Xu Jie's tail swung in the ground, swept out a large cloud of dust, and said, "Well, Meow doesn't want to go home today, let's live here, okay?" ”
The ink paw that was walking in front and jumping on the windowsill slipped and fell directly, and the cat's face was stuck on the windowsill.
Xu Jie, who was not far from it, heard a 'bump', and then the ink slid down the wall below the windowsill to the ground.
Xu Jie, who felt pain when he heard the sound, hurriedly ran over to check if Mo was injured, but saw that it quickly got up from the ground, and asked with a dirty face: "You won't go back to the human side tonight, do you want to accompany me here?" ”
Looking at Mo Na's happy smile, Xu Jie felt a little guilty, and he seemed to care less about it.
Thinking of this, Xu Jie couldn't help but step forward, and said while licking the dust on Mo's cat's face: "Well, let's not go back today, and not only today, but we will often live here from now on, okay?" ”
Mo Wenyan's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and even the common gold was almost invisible.
So the Matsumoto couple, who had been waiting in the Fujimoto shop for an afternoon, drank four or five cups of coffee, and read the newspaper several times, of course, did not wait for anything, and left with a blushing face.
The next day, Xu Jie followed the Fujimoto couple to the shop to attract popularity as usual, and at ten o'clock, Mo also came over to bring it food with Xu Jie's meal today.
Because the little raccoon promised that she would have more time to accompany herself in the future, Mo was in a very good mood today.
The food it brought to Xu Jie was a wild crucian carp, and it seemed that Mo had been to the river today.
Cats are known to not like water, and even Maine only likes to play in water rather than wet their fur.
Therefore, even if the cat likes to eat fish, it will consciously stay away from the water, unless it is the faucet or fish tank and toilet that it is familiar with in the house
And the crucian carp that Mo brought to Xu Jie is the length of an adult man's palm, and it looks fat, so it has to be more than half a catty. A fish of this size will definitely not live in a place where the water is too shallow.
God knows how Mo got this fish out of the water, and the fish has a lot more strength in the water than on the shore.
However, this idea was just a turn in Xu Jie's head, and he had already been fed as a foodie, so he began to throw out some distractions and concentrate on dealing with the crucian carp that was really big for a cat.
Mo squatted aside, wiggling the tip of his tail and watching Xu Jie eat fish there.
It's a blessing for cats to be able to eat and drink, so looking at the wolfing appearance of his little raccoon flower, Mo's mood is even better.
It is said that the meat in the belly of the fish is the best because it is fat and soft.
But Xu Jie's favorite part is the back of the fish, the meat there is firm and elastic, but it will not be too tight due to excessive exercise like the tail of the fish, so it is Xu Jie's favorite part of a fish.
Looking at Xu Jie, who was eating Huanshi, Mo's eyes were getting more and more crooked as he smiled, and he really hoped that his little raccoon flower had a good appetite today and could eat all the crucian carp he brought over.
But Mo's expectations were not met, because Xu Jie had just started talking not long before the Honda car, which had been parked in front of the store for an afternoon yesterday, appeared again.
The car door opened and it was the Matsumoto couple who came yesterday, this time they pushed open the door and directly saw Mo who was eating with Xu Jie at the front desk.
Looking at the smooth and silky black hair on Mo's body, which had no variegated color at all, the eyes of both Matsumoto and his wife flashed with great surprise.
Mrs. Matsumoto, in particular, let go of her husband's hand and walked over to Mo's side in a few steps, reaching out to touch it.
Seeing this, the nearest front desk lady exclaimed, "Madam, please don't do it." ”
But her reminder was still too late, and Mo would not be polite to anyone who dared to stretch out his hand like herself.
So after a scream, Mrs. Matsumoto had four more bloody scratches on her hands.
Stroking the back of her bloody hand, Matsumoto Jika couldn't believe that she would be injured?
After a while, the lady suddenly shouted out, and then pointed to the cat and said to her husband: "Do you see, that cat actually dares to scratch me?" I want you to kill it, do you hear it? ”
Hearing the voice below, Dr. Fujimoto, who went downstairs to check on the voice, frowned when he heard this, pursed his lips and ran over quickly.
After discovering that Dr. Fujimoto was coming, Mrs. Matsumoto's affection became even more excited, and she pointed to the ink and said, "Do you know that this cat scratched me, I want to take it away." ”
Hearing this, Dr. Fujimoto said very politely, "I'm sorry ma'am, but I didn't have this cat, so I can't decide where it belongs." However, since your scratch occurred in our shop, I will take you to get vaccinated. ”
Hearing this, Matsumoto Jika pointed to the doctor's nose and said, "What do you mean by that, evading responsibility, aren't you?" I tell you that I must take this cat with me today, and if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, we won't finish this matter. ”
Hearing this, Dr. Fujimoto avoided her fingers and said, "I don't mean to shirk my responsibility, if this lady is not interested in me bringing a vaccination, then we can also discuss it, but in view of what you just said, I will definitely not let you take the cat." ”
Seeing that his wife was about to jump up and scold, Mr. Matsumoto hurriedly stopped his wife, gave her a look, and motioned for her to look at the black cat.
Mrs. Matsumoto, who was already angry, gasped when she saw this, stared at Mo hatefully several times, and then stopped talking.
Seeing this, Mr. Matsumoto pulled his wife down behind him, and then politely said to Dr. Fujimoto, "Mr. Fujimoto, please don't be surprised, Uchiko is just too happy to see Pike, and she is a little excited." We weren't sure yet, but when we saw the black cat, we knew for sure it was our Pike. During this time, Pike will take care of you, and we will take it away, and we will not bother you. ”
As he spoke, he winked at the driver he had brought with him, and motioned for him to hurry over and catch the cat.
Seeing this, the driver wanted to go over, but was stopped by Mr. Fujimoto.
He said to the three people very strictly: "Please don't worry, Mr. Matsumoto, I think your judgment is too arbitrary. Judging from the black cat's reaction to Madame Zun just now, it doesn't look like a cat that is familiar with you. ”
Mr. Matsumoto tore away his face and smiled a few times and said, "That must be that Pike has been away from home for too long and forgot about us, just wait for us to take it home." ”
Mr. Fujimoto replied, "Mr. Matsumoto, you really underestimate animals too much. The memory of pets is very good, especially the sound and smell of their owners, and they will not forget it for a long time, which everyone who has had pets should know, you won't know it, right? ”
The smile on Mr. Matsumoto's face froze when he heard this, but before he could speak, Mrs. Matsumoto, who was standing behind him, stopped doing it.
She jumped out from behind her husband and shouted, "What do you mean by that?" Say we're here to trick the cats, right? Do you know who I am? I'm the eldest lady of Matsumoto Industrial, and my eldest uncle is the chairman of Matsumoto Industrial, and my monthly pocket money is enough for you guys to earn for a year, and I will come to deceive the cat, what are you kidding? ”
When I heard that Mrs. Matsumoto said that she was the eldest lady of Matsumoto industrialists, the people who had heard the noise and came to see the excitement began to buzz and talk.
Matsumoto Kogyo is well-known in several nearby prefectures and cities, and the family started out in foreign trade and later ventured into the real estate industry, with a total asset of more than 10 billion yen.
If this is the case with the young lady of the family, of course, it is impossible to come over and deceive a cat.
But as she spoke, some people in the crowd outside began to crook the building, saying that it was no wonder that lady dared to be so arrogant in front of her husband, it turned out that her husband was rich.
In Japan's high society, it is not uncommon for wealthy men to become wealthy, especially in the political and business worlds.
Japanese sons-in-law need to be loyal to their wives, and change their surnames to their wives, and the children born in the future must also follow their mother's nature, and they will also be buried with their wives in the cemetery after they die in the future.
Since most of the men who are elected to the elite society are of good ability, their status in the family is not low, but it is still very rare for the common people to be rich.
So since you have seen it, you can't help but discuss it.
Naoto Matsumoto looked at the crowd standing outside the gate watching the excitement and pointing at him, and he couldn't help but feel angry and bloody, and his ears began to buzz.
He took a deep breath, took out his purse, pulled out a check, added seven digits to it, and handed it to Dr. Fujimoto and said, "Mr. Fujimoto, Pike really is our cat." We would like to thank you and your family for taking care of it these days. This is 1 million yen, which is a little bit of love from our husband and wife, so please be sure to accept it. ”
I have to say that this Mr. Matsumoto's reaction was very fast, and just one action dissolved people's speculation that their husband and wife were cheating on the cat.
Hearing this, Mr. Fujimoto pushed the check back without hesitation and said, "Whether it is judging from the conditions you gave to find the cat before, or judging from the reaction of the big black cat after seeing you, this cat will not be owned by you." So it's not a question of money or not, sir, even if you put a few zeros at the end of this check, I will never let you take it. ”
Mrs. Matsumoto looked like she was going to fry the pan again, and she kicked over the chair next to her lap.
Mr. Fujimoto said sternly: "This lady, please control your temper, if you are committing such an obviously aggressive behavior, then we can only choose to call the police." ”
Mr. Matsumoto nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, well, since Mr. Fujimoto, you have principles, then we don't force it, and we will always meet in the future." ”
Saying that, he came to his very dissatisfied wife, and pushed away the crowd with the driver, and several people hurriedly got into the luxury Honda car parked outside.
The driver started the car and left the place quickly, and Matsumoto Jixiang, who was sitting in the back seat, asked her husband, "Why are you pulling me away, didn't you see the cat just now?" There is no variegated black hair on the body, and the body shape and weight are also qualified, you see what time it is now, without this one, we will go there to find the right one? ”
Hearing this, Naoto Matsumoto glanced at his wife and said, "If you don't leave, are you waiting for that man to call the police?" And then it got bigger and bigger, and everybody came to see our jokes. ”
Matsumoto Jika wanted to say something when she heard this, but she found that she couldn't think of words to argue with her husband, so she hammered the saddle hard and asked, "That man refuses to let that cat out now, what are we going to do now?" ”
Naoto Matsumoto thought for a moment when he heard this, and suddenly said to the driver driving in front of him: "U-turn, let's go to the police station, didn't that guy surnamed Fujimoto want to call the police?" Don't bother him, let's go to the police first. ”
At the Fujimoto shop, the crowd that came to see the excitement had not dispersed when I saw a police car driving over.
After stopping at the gate of Fujimoto's shop, the officer on the police car got out of the car and said to Mr. Fujimoto: "Mr. Fujimoto Hiroyo, a Mr. Matsumoto came to the police and said that you detained his cat without permission and did not return it, please go to the police station with us and let us know and verify the situation." ”
When Mrs. Fujimoto heard this, she immediately shook her husband's hand and said, "Mr. Policeman, that black cat is not our family's, it just often comes to play with our tanuki cat." We have never restricted the cat's freedom, it can come and go as much as it wants, and the neighbors around us can testify to this. And that cat was not raised by the couple at all, and that Mr. Matsumoto was the first to sue the wicked. ”
As soon as Mrs. Fujimoto's words fell, the neighbors around her began to agree, and after being neighbors for so many years, they have a very say in the character of the Fujimoto couple.
The police officer said very kindly: "What you said, we will definitely investigate." Now I invite Mr. Fujimoto to come over to cooperate with the investigation. ”
Mr. Fujimoto took off the white coat he was wearing, handed it to his wife, and patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, telling her not to worry.
Then he said, "I'll go with you." So he got into the police car.
