Chapter 160: Revenge is an instinct
Perhaps sensing that Zheng Si was looking at it, the cat squatting on the tree turned its head to look at the intersection.
It looks a little like a stray cat, with some stains on the hair on its body, and several scratches of different lengths above the eyes, and the healed wounds leave blood-colored marks, which are especially striking on the white fur. These wounds are supposed to have been left two days ago.
Zheng Si didn't know what exactly caused the scratch to the cat, but as long as the longest wound extended down by one centimeter, the cat's left eye was probably gone. On the bright side, the cat was lucky.
The cat just glanced at the people at the intersection, perhaps not feeling threatened, and continued to stare at the window on the second floor of the house.
Ermao next to him took the last bite of the egg cake into his mouth and smacked his mouth, "What is that cat looking at?" Is there any 'harmony' in it? ”
Zheng Si shook his ears, didn't bother to pay attention to Ermao, and raised his feet to walk over there.
As Zheng Si approached there, the cat looked at Zheng Si vigilantly, and even if it didn't stare at Zheng Si, its ears kept moving slightly, quite alert.
Didn't climb the tree, Zheng Si walked there just to see what the cat was looking at, and the result made Zheng Si very disappointed, there was no need to climb the tree, standing here Zheng Si could see the situation of the window on the second floor of the house, because the window on the second floor was closed, and it was tightly covered by the curtains, so he couldn't see what was in the house at all.
Looking at the cat in the tree who continued to stare at the window, and then at the window covered by the curtains, Zheng sighed and shook his head. It's inexplicable.
didn't continue to stay here to find the reason, Zheng Si returned to the intersection and continued to walk forward, Ermao still followed.
Ermao is not bored, he has not walked through this side of the street, now he is very interested in the snacks full of local characteristics on this street, although it has long been past the time to eat breakfast, but many shops and stalls are not only for breakfast, so, Ermao walked all the way to buy and eat all the way. There is a good mung bean cake. Ermao directly bought two packs and carried them.
Some people on this street are already familiar with Zheng Si, and some take the initiative to say hello when they see Zheng Si, although they don't know Zheng Si's name, but occasionally they will say a few words like they do to their own pets. Or talk to the person next to you about the black cat. Guess who raised it.
The old neighborhood is full of alleys. There are so many narrow alleys that can only accommodate two or three people walking side by side, and these alleys are also full of various stories, Zheng Si has been walking on this street for so long. I've seen quite a few of them. Fighting, blackmailing, drug abuse, cheating, etc., involving a wide range of ages, regardless of gender, age or industry.
Perhaps, this is also part of the Hutong alley culture?
Just like at this moment, Zheng Si moved his ears and looked at a narrow alley. There was a recess in the alley for piling up garbage, and two young men in their early twenties stood there, talking to the people in the recess.
Zheng Si listened to the voices and intermittent conversations inside, and was not ready to go over to meddle in things, and was about to leave, when he found Ermao walking into the alley. didn't go further inside, just took two steps, and then Ermao leaned against the wall next to him, carrying the sundries he bought on the road in one hand and pinching a mung bean cake in the other hand to eat.
Zheng Si jumped on the wall, ready to see what Ermao, a foodie, was going to do. Do you act bravely?
The two young men over there had already received the forced money, counted it, walked out of the alley, and when they looked up, they found a person standing at the entrance of the alley. Putting the money in his trouser pocket, the two looked at each other and continued to walk out, their hands ready to dig out the dick.
Ermao wiped the crumbs from his mouth with his thumb and walked inside.
One of the young men brewed his emotions and was about to say cruel words, but before he could say anything, he found that Ermao had already rushed to the front, and the next moment, he fell, and he didn't even have time to see clearly how the person in front of him made a move.
Another young man was about to take out a knife, but before the knife appeared, Zheng Si heard a soft "click", and the man's "ah" scream was not finished, and the scream stopped abruptly.
Only one of them looked at the face, and even Ermao just used one hand, and in the blink of an eye, both of them fell.
Zheng Si looked at the two people who were lying on the ground motionless, and shook his ears, sure enough, it was Wei Ling's junior brother, this shot was really sharp.
The person who was originally standing in the recess of the alley wall stretched his neck to look out when he heard the sound, just in time to meet Ermao's gaze, and then the child retracted his head again, and didn't dare to stand up at all, it is estimated that he was still praying that Ermao would not target him, he didn't want to be with the two people lying on the ground.
Ermao just glanced at the garbage heap, and didn't look any further. Walking to the two people lying on the ground, Ermao reached out and took out the pockets and trouser pockets of these two people, and the money he took out was a small thousand, and then put it all into his own pocket, not even letting go of the five-cent coin, and he looked at ease and reasonable.
Zheng sighed: "......"
it!
Black eats black?!
Well, Zheng Si was still thinking about whether Ermao would return the money in a righteous and courageous manner, and sure enough, he still overestimated Ermao's character.
After the money was put away, Ermao patted the dust on his coat, didn't look at the two people lying on the ground and the people at the garbage heap, turned around and left, leaving only the student who stuck his head out from the garbage heap to watch the development of the situation in the alley stood there with a complicated face, feeling a little like crying without tears.
After coming out of the alley, when Ermao looked at the wall next to him, he found that the black cat on the wall was looking at him with disdain.
"What, it's not pleasing to the eye? Think I should pay that little kid back? Ermao sighed and said, "That kind of little kid is not a good product at first glance, maybe this money is forced out by him from children who are weaker than him,"
Although Ermao's character is not very good, I have to admit that he sees people very accurately. Of course, maybe this is just an excuse for Ermao's behavior, Zheng Si is too lazy to take it seriously, he just has an impression of the students standing there in the garbage heap, he has seen this person and his partner block Fu Lei before, but unfortunately Fu Lei is a hard stubble, the two of them partnered to block Fu Lei and did not succeed, but were beaten by Fu Lei without leaking. This kid's luck is really not very good, isn't there a saying: come out and mix. Sooner or later, it will have to be returned.
didn't have much emotional change because of what happened just now, it was still the same as before, Ermao looked at the surrounding shops and stalls with some curiosity, and went over to buy what he liked.
Zheng Si walked all the way, passing by Jiaoyuan's school, stood by the window and watched for a while, and was discovered by a few students sitting in the back row. Who knows if the teacher on the podium knows whether Jiao's mother will sue, so. It's better not to stay here.
After that, Zheng Si went to the construction site of Ye Hao's project to take a few looks.
Ermao followed. Although he didn't show anything on his face, he had already sighed several times in his heart. Especially when he saw the eyes of those people on the construction site looking at Zheng Si, Ermao realized that this cat was really popular.
followed Zheng Si to familiarize himself with this street. Seeing Zheng Si walking back. Ermao didn't plan to stay outside any longer. Follow back.
When passing through the previous intersection, Zheng Si looked in again, and the cat in the tree was gone. And the window on the second floor of the house over there has been opened. Driven by curiosity, Zheng Si jumped up the tree and looked inside.
There was a man in his thirties in a suit with gold-rimmed glasses, sitting in front of the window with a cup of coffee, wondering what Lu Dao was thinking.
Seeing the black cat that suddenly jumped up the tree, the man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled a little.
Zheng Si felt that the person's eyes were a little strange, and the smile on his face was nothing unusual in the eyes of others, but Zheng Si felt that he was hairy, and he always felt that this person had a strange sense of contradiction and disobedience.
Zheng Si's feeling was right, the man still had the smile on his face, but the hand holding the coffee cup suddenly raised, and the coffee in the cup was still a little hot towards Zheng Si.
The tree was not far from the house, and some of the branches were already reaching the window. Fortunately, Zheng Si was vigilant and avoided it, but there was still a little splash on his back, not much, and he couldn't feel the hot temperature, but Zheng Si could smell the coffee smell brought by that little bit of coffee, and then think of what the person on the second floor did, which was even more unpleasant.
The man, on the other hand, was smiling even more because of this.
After running some distance, when Zheng Si looked at the window on the second floor again, the man was no longer by the window, and he probably went to pour coffee again.
Pulling his ears, Zheng Si glanced around.
There is a stone under the tree.
Looking at the window on the second floor, there is still no one. Zheng Si cautiously approached under the tree to prevent something from splashing down on the second floor.
After coming to the bottom of the tree, Zheng Si moved the stone a little farther away, because there was a wall between the tree and the house, which would interfere with Zheng Si's movements.
When he felt that the distance was just right, Zheng Si stretched out his two front paws to hold the stone, and then threw it towards the window on the second floor.
I'll let you splash!
Fuck your uncle!
Stones slammed against the glass of the window, followed by the sound of glass shattering.
Zheng Si ran away after throwing the stone, and was much happier after hearing the sound of glass breaking.
Although Zheng Si was very angry just now, but because there was still Ermao looking at this side at the intersection, Zheng Si stood up directly when he threw a stone and threw it with one claw like a grenade, but chose the way of throwing it with two claws, although it was still very surprising, but it was better than the former.
Ermao was surprised, but he didn't speak, and gave Zheng Si a thumbs up.
However, Ermao's heart was not as calm as his face, the scene he saw just now was indeed quite surprising, fortunately, Wei Ling had given him a vaccination, and some of his own experiences, he was not too surprised. He also thought of a sentence that his master and his old man had said: revenge is an instinct, and this is true of humans, and so are cats.
When he returned to Chuhua University, Zheng Si passed by several small stores that had been closed, and saw the black and white cat, there was a little gap between the two stores, I don't know who put a carton in this interval, and the black and white cat stayed inside, there was a disposable paper bowl next to it, and there were some meals at the bottom of the paper bowl that I didn't know if I had passed a few days, and there were fresh-looking buns on it.
Looking at the cat up close, Zheng Si always thought that the cat had a black dirt stuck to its nose, but now he realized that it was just its own pattern, which was shaped like a grain of rice.
The cat had no obvious malice towards Zheng Si and Ermao, but was a little vigilant, especially when Zheng Si approached the paper bowl, it also let out a low whining warning sound.
Seeing this, Zheng Si didn't get any closer, but when Ermao took out a boxed lunch he bought earlier and leaned over there, the cat didn't bark, just a little vigilant.
The lunch box had already cooled down, but the aroma of meat from it still made the cat feel a lot more energetic, but even so, it didn't eat it immediately, but kept staring at Ermao.
Ermao looked around, not far away, I don't know whose child threw a small piece of brown crayons, Ermao picked it up, and wrote a few words on the cardboard box:
"Can catch mice, can watch the house, and ask for support"
There is also a cat with a simple line drawn on the back of the letter. (To be continued......)
