Chapter 15: The White Cat Asks for His Life
Cats are afraid of people, and in my impression, I have never been treated by such animals, and whenever those cats suddenly meet me, they are like they have seen a natural predator.
Later, Liu Baye told me that the reason why the cat would react like that when he saw me, was because I often went in and out of the tomb, and the cat was contaminated with dead air, and the cat was a very spiritual animal.
But at that moment, the white cat was so close to me that not only did it not run, but it raised its head and squinted at me, as if it was examining me.
Because the death smell of entering and leaving the tomb will not be eliminated in a short time, so I think the white cat must have sensed it, but it did not hunch over like the other cats, nor did it run away, which made me very surprised and puzzled.
Meow......!
The white cat squinted with its head held high, and then approached me, rubbing its body against my legs, as if it was showing affection.
I've never been so close to a cat when I'm this big, and it makes me a little nervous and excited.
Seeing the white cat's delightful appearance, I squatted down at an inopportune time and reached out to stroke its head.
The white cat seemed to enjoy my actions, squinting and cooing in its throat.
I don't know if I'm wrong, because I always think that the white cat's eyes are very strange, although they are almost narrowed into a slit, but in the gap there is a cold light that is difficult to hide, giving people a chilling feeling.
That is, when I looked at the white cat's eyes, I realized that the cat was not actually pure white without any variegation.
At the corners of its eyes, there are two clear gray hairs, and if you don't look closely, you'll think it's crying at you.
Dada......!
Suddenly, there was the sound of hurried footsteps.
I knew that someone was coming, and I was trying to dodge, but I didn't expect that the other party's speed was so fast, and it had already appeared in front of me at this moment.
It was a young man, who looked a little older than me, wearing glasses and a set of pajamas with a slightly neutral cartoon pattern.
He looked a little like me, and it made me feel like I was looking in a mirror.
"Who are you?"
The other party obviously also discovered my appearance problem, and looked me up and down with disdain.
Faced with the questioning of the person in front of me, I was speechless, I never thought that it was not easy to sneak into this town quietly, and before I could do anything, I exposed my whereabouts because of a cat.
"Eh, I'm going to say I'm the little one of those families, do you believe me?"
As soon as I said this, even I didn't believe it, but what I didn't expect was that the other party actually nodded.
"I believe, although I was born and raised here, I am not very familiar with the people in the town, I believe what you say, because there are almost no outsiders in this Xue family town."
I didn't expect this guy in front of me to be so easy to deceive, which made me breathe a long sigh of relief.
Meow......!
At this time, the white cat on my lap walked towards the man after barking, and looked at him with the same gaze with his head held high.
"How many times have I told you, don't run around the town anymore, then this mess, the town is going to die again, alas, ......!"
As he spoke, the man looked up at me again, and his eyes looked cold and desolate, and he felt that in his eyes I was not a living person, but a corpse.
The white cat jumped into the man's arms at once, and the pair of eyes were always squinting at me.
The man turned away with the white cat in his arms, but before leaving, he left me a message, "It looks quite like me, but it's a pity, let's go home and prepare for the future, because you can't see the sun rising tomorrow......!" ”
The young man walked away with the cat in his arms, disappearing into the distant streetlights, and the surroundings became silent again, as if nothing had happened.
I froze in place, for I couldn't understand why the man would say that to me before leaving.
He told me to go home and get ready for the aftermath, and said I wouldn't see the sun rise tomorrow!
Is this a curse or a hint?
And the saying to the white cat that if it runs around, someone will die.
This made me feel more and more that the white cat was different, or that there was some kind of weirdness hidden in it, a weirdness that could kill people.
A cat can tell people life and death, such strange anecdotes are unheard of and unheard of.
I was tempted to say to myself that it was all nonsense, but I couldn't, because after all the weirdness I had been through, I was already in the middle of it.
Maybe it's true, as the man said, that I really won't see the sun tomorrow.
But I am not depressed, but on the contrary, I have established my determination to take revenge, even if it is death, I will drag that Xue Tianhu to die together!
Otherwise, I wouldn't have the shame to face my mother's spirit in the sky.
…………
In the night, under the dim light, I was like a mouse that only lived in the dark, shuttling through the dark places in the corner, looking for the slightest trace of Xue Tianhu.
There are thousands of houses in the town, and if you want to find them one by one, I am afraid that you will not be able to find them even if you find them at dawn.
So instead of trying your luck one by one, it's better to take the risk of grabbing someone and asking.
The reason why I was going to risk exposing myself was because I probably didn't have much time to waste, and it was probably my life at dawn.
I followed the patrolling, and it wasn't long before one of them broke away, apparently in a sudden hurry, and ran toward a secluded corner on the side.
Seeing this, I followed in a flash, and when the guy was in the corner of the wall, I raised my hand and gently put it on his shoulder.
That guy was slapped by me like this, and he was covered in a while, and half of the water was cut off directly halfway.
"Who...... Who? ”
He turned his head sharply and looked at me with horror on his face.
In order to avoid him yelling and attracting the attention of others, I pulled out the sharp knife in my trouser leg early, and the moment the guy turned his head, the blade was directly against his exposed water pipe.
"Shut up, if you dare to shout, I'll abolish you!"
At that time, the guy was so frightened that he was about to cry, so he nodded at me one after another, indicating that he would definitely cooperate and not shout.
To be honest, I was really a little too close to the guy to the point where the exposed hose was pointing straight at me, which made me feel a wave of disgust.
The sharp knife in my hand was still in place, and my body instinctively took a step back.
As I took a step back, a faint afterglow of light fell on my otherwise dark face, which made the guy see my face clearly.
When he saw my face, the guy's body shook again, and a pair of eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and he grew up and exclaimed to me softly, "Less...... Young Master, ah no, Mayor Xue, why are you ......? ”
"Ah......h
I was shocked, obviously blinded by the guy in front of me.
"What young master, what Mayor Xue?" I asked, frowning.
I saw that the guy who was still trembling with fright suddenly smiled at me flatteringly at this moment, "Mayor Xue, don't laugh, you may not know Xiao, but Xiaozhi knows you, this face of yours has been seen in the public election meeting in Xuejia Town." ”
"Mayor Xue, why don't you even rest at night, and personally come out to inspect the security in the town?"
After listening to the words of the guy in front of me, I roughly understood, he recognized the wrong person and recognized me as the mayor of Xuejia Town.
Do I look so much like the mayor of this Xue family town?
It suddenly reminded me of the bespectacled young man I had met earlier......
