Chapter 17: Seeing the Cat Man
"Looks like I didn't find much today." Lin Wo stood up suddenly, and then rushed into the rain, rushing onto the road, his speed was so fast that even his body seemed to glow faintly.
This luminous object caused the two frustrated candid photographers to complain about the weather, when they had a newly discovered target, they hurried, screaming and holding the camera to chase after them.
Even the two passing cars stopped in shock, and the driver stuck his head out of the window and scolded: Running around on the road, don't die? Because the driver saw these two people running around the road on the road.
As you can imagine, after a while, the two of them appeared on the side of the road in frustration, arguing fiercely about something, because they didn't catch up with the person they wanted to shoot.
But after a while, the two stalkers hurriedly ran to hide from the rain under the eaves of someone else's storefront, probably for fear of wetting the camera.
The dark shadow still hasn't appeared, and the person who is secretly filming the target is so obvious, he definitely won't come out.
But Tal suddenly made a new discovery, on the eaves of the shop where the two of them were sheltering from the rain, it was a stainless steel frame with steel tiles on top of the eaves, and the black shadow quietly appeared.
The street lights in the rain were wet and dimly sprinkled on the man's head, and Taal thought he had seen a cat, a cat man, with pointed ears and long hair, and a human form, whose eyes were bright like small beams of light in the night.
I just saw a side in the shadows, to be exact, it was a cat man, I don't know if it was a cat, Lin Wo's suggestion to make it a cat may be because he was inspired by seeing this human cat.
The two people who were hiding in the rain were still arguing fiercely with each other about what they had just seen, and they were running so fast, glowing, complaining that they had tried their best to chase it, and the thing was running too fast, and they didn't get a shot.
While looking at the camera, I wondered why I didn't catch anything when it was always on.
The other one who was holding the camera may have been panicked and didn't turn on the camera, so naturally he didn't shoot anything.
After arguing and arguing, the two of them sat on the long steps of the storefront in frustration, not wanting to say anything, taking out their cigarettes to smoke, silently listening to the crackling sound of the rain falling on the steel tiles above their heads, and the cat man was long gone.
It may be that they can't listen to their unfocused discussions, and its appearance and departure have not attracted the attention of the two rain hiders.
Tal clearly saw that the cat man really jumped like a cat, crawling to the height of the building, a few vertical jumps were gone, and the long tail was also very similar to a cat's tail, and he was very impressed at first sight.
The rain has been falling since dawn, and it seems that God is in a bad mood, so he gradually increases the intensity of crying, and everything is shrouded in the scope of the heavy rain, and there seem to be fewer people traveling, only a little less.
Where the rain is splashed, there are round umbrella flowers blooming everywhere, all shapes, all colors, and under the umbrella are umbrella bearers dressed in different clothes and expressions.
It's a wonderful human world.
It has entered November, an autumn rain and a cold, the ground is full of fallen leaves withering into mud in the rain, and the cold wind still urges the rain from time to time.
A couple quarreled not far from Tár, originally sharing an umbrella, because of the quarrel, the straight-haired girl got out of the umbrella directly and stood in the rain, letting tears and rain flow on her face.
The boy also seemed to be angry, and did not look back in anger, and walked away with an umbrella, leaving her alone.
The girl was still willfully drenched in the rain alone, letting the rain get wet.
An old man passing by couldn't stand it, so he raised an umbrella to protect the girl from the rain: "Girl, go and hide from the rain, don't get drenched." ”
The girl pushed the uncle away very willfully, and in order to avoid suspicion, the uncle shook his head, raised his umbrella and walked away.
There are not many nosy people, although they are curious about this girl in the rain, everyone looks sideways, but no one cares.
But soon another girl in a beige coat came over with a blue umbrella, as if she didn't care, walked over, walked past her, took a few steps back, and held the umbrella high to cover the rain-drenched girl: "Why are you in the rain?" Isn't it cold? ”
The girl suddenly squatted down and cried, her shoulders twitched, and the girl holding the umbrella said, "Why don't you give this umbrella to you, I'll buy another one later." He shoved the handle of the umbrella into her hand, and ran to the eaves of this Yiina store to hide from the rain.
The girl sighed while looking at the water pouring down from the sky, and at the girl who was still squatting, and her eyes wandered forward, left and right, with a sad expression.
After a while, the boy who was arguing came back and looked at his wayward girlfriend: "It seems that I don't have to worry, you are not drenched." ”
"The umbrella is mine." The girl in the beige coat, sheltering from the rain, stood up and cut off coldly.
Tal felt like a bolt of lightning flashing through the stone when he heard the voice, reminding him that the girl was Emstone.
Why is she here, I haven't seen her for a long time, maybe it's been half a month, although Tal can't express any human emotions, but I'm also happy to see Ai Mushi.
Ai Mushi ran over in a few steps, snatched the umbrella from the girl's hand, pulled the girl up and pushed her into the boy's arms, turned around and left.
The girl fell into the boy's arms, hugged his waist, and cried: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I won't be willful anymore, don't leave me." ”
"That's good." When the boy heard this, he touched her wet hair, smiled and hugged the girl, and walked away sweetly with an umbrella.
The little couple is so noisy and capricious, and they will reconcile after a while.
No one thanked Ai Mushi, and Ai Mushi didn't care, only walked a few steps, and when he saw them leaving, he took the umbrella and sat down in front of the steps, looking at the road ahead with his cheeks back, and called Tar in his heart.
She had been looking for Tal several times, and as time passed, she became more and more disappointed, and she might not be able to find it again, and cried several times about it.
She didn't know why she had to look for this strange stone, and what if she found it? Maybe I didn't cherish it at the time, and I regretted it when I lost it, so I thought it was a psychological comfort.
It was raining today, coinciding with the company's holiday and few people going out, so she still had a glimmer of hope for some reason, and took a car to this street to look for Thal, although she knew that there might be no hope.
Tal didn't respond, even though sensing her call, it didn't respond.
It's just a stone, and Aimushi is a human being, so it can't disturb the trajectory of her life.
And Ai Mushi's life is to find a boyfriend to marry.
Tal didn't even have a body, and now it was waiting for an opportunity to reassemble it.
It's just a brief separation, and they'll see you again later.
So it was silent.
Ai Mushi called for a while, waited for a while, and didn't hear Tár's reply, thinking that maybe Tal was not in this area, and he didn't know where he was.
She stood up and walked forward. After walking more than ten meters, I found a place to hide from the rain, sat down again and continued to call in my heart.
Gradually, it went away.
Tal felt the chip vibrate, and watched her go away, and suddenly his heart was empty, as if Aimushi had taken away its heart, did it have a heart? It's just a stone, a black stone.
If it were a human being, it could bow its head and hold its chest in discomfort, but it could do nothing.
And the feeling of emptiness is the same as when the body was destroyed, what I want to grasp, but I can't grasp anything.
It can't even manipulate its own fate, its body is destroyed, it is abandoned on Earth, it can't do anything.
Although it was with Ai Mushi, it had also been self-righteous, but after all, it knew that there was a difference between humans and stones.
The rain seemed to know its ebb, and covered the heavens and the earth, and even the light of the sky was taken away, and suddenly the sky became dark.
The relay of lights continues to illuminate the sky above the city's streets.
Because the road is slippery in the rain, and it is night, the sight of human beings, because of various lights in different directions, is easily affected, and there are two battery cars at the intersection that collide with each other and slip, and the two owners get up, and they have not yet come on the road and argue who is right and who is wrong, and the other motorcycle brakes are not enough to rush over, and knock the two people who are ready to quarrel away, and he himself even slipped and fell out of the road, fell on the road, and couldn't get up for a long time.
Seeing the person who suddenly fell out, Geely, which was driving normally, braked urgently in time, and the piercing brake sound had not yet dissipated.
"Bang." There was a loud bang, and a van behind couldn't brake, Huo Huo rear-ended and collided, and as soon as he hit it, Geely slid forward,
But because it is an intersection, the speed is not very fast. The thrust force was not large, but the wheel stopped in front of the motorcycle owner's fall, and it was still a wheel away from pressing.
The owner of the Geely car jumped out of the car and nervously went to the front of the car to check, did not see anyone hit, breathed a sigh of relief, ran to the back of the car to check, and immediately rushed out angrily to smash the door of the rear-ended van and yelled: "Come out, how did you drive?" ”
The owner of the van also drove out of the door, looked at the scene, and sweated in shock, but verbally refused to admit defeat: "If you drive a bad luck, you think the road is your home?" Stop if you want to? Didn't you brake suddenly, could I crash? ”
"Why are you rear-ended? Are you still reasonable? "The driver of the car in front of him braked and was furious,
Suddenly, the two quarreled, and it was not someone who pulled them to start the full martial arts.
The motorcyclist was so shocked that he crawled and rolled to the side of the road, embarrassed, and did not catch his breath.
The two owners of the battery also surrounded him and began to accuse him of a war of words.
As soon as a bad car accident happened, all the pedestrians who were hurrying in the rain forgot where they were going, and the accident scene was surrounded by a human wall.
There was a lot of discussion, and the voices of the owners who were arguing were much lower.
This is because of a series of car accidents caused by slippery roads.
Lin Wo suddenly appeared like a ghost and appeared in front of Tár, he also seemed to only appear at night, the windbreaker and black hat were firmly covered on the top of his head, making it difficult to see his face: "At such an intersection, people who don't know how to make friends with themselves, such accidents happen every day, but fortunately no one died." His words were full of commonplace helplessness.
Indeed, the super-speed of human riding and driving, not the gravity of the earth, can fly into the sky.
"The figure didn't come out." Tal didn't comment, it seemed to care more about the cat people.
"You know how many alien races who think they are fully evolved will set out to transform and help other evolving planetary civilizations, and Earth is one of them."
Tal listened quietly, remembering the long-tailed cat man he had seen. There must be a reason why Lin Wo suddenly said this.
"They are felines, evolved from lions and some felines like the one you see, their ancestors were in the ether form, and in order to help those planets in this universe, they evolved over millions of years to evolve into the actual human form. Coming to Earth also shrunk the normal size in order to be a little more human-like. "Lin Wo knows so much.
"It's still like a cat." Tal responded, Is Lin Wo haunted every day just to investigate the family background of those alien aliens who have emerged among the humans? It seems that it is really too idle.
It also suddenly knew that Lin Wo suddenly jumped out last night to lead the two candid photographers to chase after him, just to lure the cat man to appear. Otherwise he wouldn't have seen it.
