I closed an open window in the living room and held the cat in my arms. It looked strange.
It's just a stray cat. It's not surprising that it jumped in, because when I was in the countryside, cats often came into the yard, but my grandma never let me keep one. There is a saying that cats come to poverty and dogs come to wealth.
, everyone likes the Jiraiya dog, but no one likes the Jiraiya cat anymore.
Another thing my grandma said is that cats are yin in nature and can easily provoke those things. Especially since my body is different from others, maybe something will happen even though I have nothing to care for.
But I don’t think the cat in my arms is a stray cat. The hair is relatively long, and although it’s a little dirty, it looks like a more expensive breed. “Little guy, are you lost?”
I asked softly, but who knew it jumped out of my arms with a meow and ran towards the corner of the living room.
"Hey, where are you going?" Although I haven't decided whether to keep it or not, it's terrible that it ran around like this and messed up the living room I just cleaned.
I chased after him, but I was a little dazed. I always thought that the corner of the living room was a wall, and I didn't pay much attention when I was cleaning it. I didn't expect that it was actually a door. At this moment, the cat was still scratching it with its claws.
It looks like I want to go in through that door.
I stretched out my hand and twisted the door handle twice. The door was locked. I put my ear to it and there was no sound.
"What's in here?" I murmured, my curiosity slightly inflated.
‘Meow’~ The cat in front of me actually responded to me. After it stopped scratching the door, it lay motionless in front of the door, as if it was tired.
I felt strange and squatted down and looked at the cat: "Where did you come from? Can you go back to your original owner? I can't keep you."
The cat ignored me, closed its eyes, and seemed to be resting, or maybe it was tired.
I was a little helpless, so I stood up and took a look at it: "Then you stay here for the night. Tomorrow I will ask my uncle to find a place for you, but you can't scare me anymore."
Back upstairs, I thought about how pitiful the cat looked, so I looked around and found a piece of bread for myself to eat. Then I took a bowl and brought some water to it and brought it down, "Mimi, come here and eat."
.”
It lay there and wouldn't move. I understand that cats don't like to eat bread, but they can't stop drinking water. Thinking about this, I took two things and walked a few steps to bring them to it. Then it stretched its neck and started eating.
, that uncle-like look made me laugh: "Why are you so lazy?"
After the cat finished eating, it curled up in front of the door and became motionless again.
I frowned and looked at it. It was the first time I saw a Jiraiya cat like this. It was really strange.
…
Ding dong, ding dong~
Early in the morning, the doorbell rang.
"Here we come!" He strode to the door, opened the door and saw Zhuo Wei standing outside: "Uncle, come in quickly."
Zhuo Wei nodded, looked around after he came in, and smiled at me: "I had something to do yesterday and didn't come over. Now I have to go to work and stopped by to see how you are living here.
"
"It's good. Didn't I send you text messages? Uncle, I know you are busy. I will be fine myself."
‘Meow’~
While my uncle and I were talking, the cat that had been clinging to its position actually moved over. Before I could say anything, my uncle was standing next to me with a face full of surprise: "Ah, isn't this Shirley? Why is it here?"
"
"Uncle, do you know this cat?" I was stunned for a moment, pointed at the cat and asked.
Zhuo Wei nodded, walked to the cat, squatted down, and glanced at me: "Why is it so dirty? This cat used to be my friend's lover's, a Persian cat named Shirley. His lover liked this cat very much back then.
Yes, after they went abroad, the cat was fostered into someone else’s home. Could it be possible that it ran back on its own?”
I hummed: "I forgot to close a small window in the living room last night, so I jumped in by myself. But, uncle, why is there a secret door over there? This cat always likes that secret door.
Lie down."
"Secret door?" Zhuo Wei was stunned for a moment after hearing what I said, and took a look in the direction I pointed: "Oh, that's not a secret door, it's the basement that my friend built at home. There should be some that he likes down there.
Red wine, and some sundries, maybe Shirley’s old nest, toys, etc. This cat is also nostalgic.”
I frowned: "Uncle, I can't open that door. I tried this morning, but I don't have the key to the basement."
"Really?" Zhuo Wei said, took my key and tried it: "It can't be opened. I didn't pay much attention to this before, but it's of no use. Qiao Qiao, do you want to use this basement?
"
I shook my head: "I don't have to, I just want to take a look."
Zhuo Wei laughed and said, "There's nothing interesting to see. The cat made me curious. My friend is a wine lover. He must be afraid that the people who come to clean up will have his eye on his red wine, so he didn't give me the key."
You don’t have to think too much, just live well.”
Seeing that my uncle had said this, I could only nod my head: "Okay, then Shirley...where should I send it?"
Zhuo Wei glanced at the watch on his wrist: "Since the cat has come back on its own, you can help raise it first. I have to go to the hospital first." After saying that, he looked back at me and said, "By the way.
Qiaoqiao, what kind of job do you want to do, I can tell you to come to our hospital for a consultation."
"No, there's no need to open the back door for me. I can try to find it myself first. I'm so embarrassed that I can't trouble you anymore." I'm so sorry. Living here is troublesome enough, and I
I don't know anything about medical matters, and I don't want to cause any trouble to my uncle.
When Zhuo Wei saw what I said, he could only nod his head: "Well, you can familiarize yourself with the environment in the past two days and take some time to relax. If no one is looking for me, I'll leave first."
"Hey, okay."
As soon as I saw my uncle off, the cat started to lift its claws and gently scratch my trouser legs. I lowered my head and looked at it: "Are you hungry? I will go out to buy you food in a while. From now on, you can follow me."
I live here...Hey! Where are you going!"
Shirley scratched me twice, raised her feet and ran around the corner. After running a few steps and seeing that I couldn't catch up, she stopped and looked back at me eagerly. Her posture was just to get me to catch up.
I sighed: "You just want to take out your things so much!"
As I said that, I could only follow and watched Shirley run to the basement door, and started scratching the door again, meowing in her mouth. After scratching for a while, she turned her head and looked at me when she saw that I was indifferent.
When it sees me looking at it, it raises its paws to scratch again, then looks at me again, and scratches the door again. The whole process is to say that it wants me to open the door, there is something fishy inside, which is very common with human nature.
My little curiosity was completely aroused by it, and I gritted my teeth and said, "Shirley, this door can't be opened. How about you wait until I have money before I buy you some toys."
Meow~~ Shirley screamed again and again and kept scratching at the door. It was all scratched. I was a little helpless. This is not my house. How could I open the door casually? I forced myself to turn around and leave, but I heard the door open.
There was a muffled sound, "Boom!" (To be continued)
