On a winter afternoon, the sun is just right. By the withered lawn of the East District compound, four cats lay side by side on a wooden bench. The four cats are all in the same posture, with their paws in their hands and their eyes squinting, facing outward, lying on the wooden chairs to bask in the sun. Zheng Tan would not have held his paws like this at first, because he looked like a cat, and Zheng Tan felt a little uncomfortable. But when I saw the cats around me kicking like this, I unconsciously followed suit. Not to mention, holding the paws like this is very warm and not tiring. The weather is perfect for carrying it. Habit is a terrible thing. Once you get used to it, things become natural. Now Zheng Tan often imitates them and folds his front paws inward to hide them. People walked by from time to time in the courtyard. They were not surprised when they saw the four cats on the wooden bench, they just smiled. Anyone who has lived in the compound for a long time will know these four cats. For the old people here, this is a very familiar scenery. Maybe one day this scenery disappears, people will still remember it. Although the four cats all use the same posture and look like they are all taking a nap, you can see the ears of the four cats moving at the same time on the bench at the slightest noise. Zheng Tan didn¡¯t know what the other three cats were thinking. He just felt that the sunlight was too dazzling and he squinted his eyes to think. Zheng Tan has not turned on his mobile phone for a week. The mobile phone Liuba gave him has been locked in the drawer of the old wooden table in the tile-roofed house and has not been touched again. Moreover, he decided to use it for a long time if there is no special matter. He didn't touch these two mobile phones, although he wanted to use them to send text messages to the Jiao family. But now it seems that it is better to say goodbye for now. The old tile-roofed house area will not be demolished for a while. If it is to be demolished, a notice will be posted in advance. Zheng Tan is not worried about it being demolished. Even if he doesn't go there to look at it every day, as long as he goes out for a walk, he can just go over there and take a look to know that his phone is still there. As for other things, Zheng Tan will first Don't want to care. cooperate? Let¡¯s wait until we want to cooperate. Zheng Tan had already deleted all text messages and call records from his old mobile phone, although Zheng Tan knew that professionals could also get a lot of information from it. But there is nothing we can do. Fortunately, the probability of being discovered by professionals is very small. If we are discovered, we can only go to Liuba and the others to help solve the problem. As long as Liuba doesn't tell us, who will know who the real owner of the phone is. What about a cat? The reason why Zheng Tan didn¡¯t reject the proposal immediately and still kept the phone was because he was afraid that something would really happen to him. There is still a way out, a solution, and you can use that cell phone to find someone for help. Zheng Tan still believed in Liuba's ability. After this week, Liuba didn't show up again. I wonder if he was busy with new work. Just as he was thinking about it, Zheng Tan heard the owner of Sahara on the other side of the family building start shouting again. Open your eyes. Soon Zheng Tan saw Sahara running out like a wild horse. The more people behind him shouted, the faster it ran. Seeing the dogs running out of the courtyard, Sahara¡¯s owner Ruan Ying gasped and stopped running. He saw four cats lying on the wooden chair. Walk over slowly, complaining as you go. "Damn it. Isn't it just a bath? It's like treating a class enemy." This guy Sahara doesn't object to bathing in summer, and sometimes likes to flush the pipes, but in winter, it's a different attitude. I heard The word "bath" made it run away. When Ruan Ying was locked up at home, she could still block it in a corner and drag it to the bathroom, but today she was unlucky and let it run away. Today, Ruan Ying happened to have nothing to do in the afternoon. When she came home, she saw that Sahara hadn't taken a bath for a long time, so she planned to give her a bath. At that time, Sahara was happily munching the dog food in the bowl, and she didn't notice Ruan Ying taking the shower gel and bathing tools. Unfortunately, Ruan Ying's grandfather came back at that time, and an old professor who had a good relationship with Ruan Ying's grandfather, Academician Ruan, came over. When he saw Ruan Ying wearing gloves and holding tools, he said: "Ruan Ying, you Are you going to give Sahara a bath?" "Almost in the next moment, Sahara squeezed out from the gap in the still closed door like a gust of wind, regardless of the uneaten dog food. There was also a teacher downstairs who had just come back from outside and opened the door, allowing Sahara to escape. Precisely because she knew that Sahara hated bathing when it was cold, Ruan Ying always moved quietly, for fear of making a noise in advance to let Sahara know. Many cats and dogs will react to some sounds and words. This is the case for a Pekingese in the compound who hates bathing no matter whether it is winter or summer. As soon as he hears the sound of his special bath basin, he immediately hides in the nest with his tail between his legs. No matter how hard the owner tried to coerce him, he would be taken out of the nest and put in the bathtub to wash him. Once Sahara runs away, he will definitely not be able to chase her back for a while, so Ruan Ying does not plan to run out and chase her directly, as that would be exhausting. The stupid dog will come back naturally when it gets hungry. Under normal circumstances, Sahara won't run out of school. He always hides on campus, so don't worry. Ruan Ying looked at the four cats on the wooden chair, thinking that there was no obedient cat in Sahara. Finally, his eyes fell on Zheng Tan and said: "Heitan, if you see Sahara when you go to play, tell me I slapped it twice, and it became more and more disobedient! Damn, it¡¯s so annoying!¡± Ruan Ying just said this, and he didn¡¯t expect Zheng Tan to understand. Many pet owners would talk to their pets directly. , this is just a habit, I don¡¯t think pets can understand much, just like many old people in the compound will tease Zheng Tan and his cats like children. After Ruan Ying left, Zheng Tan lay down on the wooden chair for a while. At three or four o'clock, when the sun was not strong enough, it became a bit cold if he continued squatting. Ah Huang and the police chief also planned to go to the woods to search. Find something fun to do. He is also short-haired, but a fat man with a fat body is more resistant to freezing. He can keep the same posture squatting until the sun goes down, letting the north wind blow, and remain steadfast. This endurance skill is probably achieved by squatting over instant noodles. . In this way, Big Fat continued to take a nap on the wooden chair, Ah Huang and the police chief went to have fun, and Zheng Tan went out of the compound to take a walk. While walking, Zheng Tan saw Sahara. The guy was sniffing back and forth at a row of bicycle parking spots. Then he looked around, walked to a bicycle, raised one hind leg, and started shushing at the bicycle. Shh. Zheng Tan: "" Sahara over there even scratched her legs twice after peeing. It seemed to be very happy and proud, but unfortunately its pride did not last long. Two male students came over, and after seeing it, an angry look appeared on one of their faces. "Holy shit! That dog came to pee again!! It's staring at me, right?" Again? Zheng Tan was confused. Although Sahara has a bit of a bad taste and likes to play pranks, he usually doesn't pee when he comes out. Besides, he rarely runs out on his own, and most of the time he is led out by others. How could he pee on the car in front of Ruan Ying and the others? Looking for a fight? No wonder Ruan Ying said that this guy was becoming more and more disobedient. Ruan Ying seemed to be gritting his teeth when he said this. The owner of the bicycle ran towards this side. Sahara ran as soon as he saw someone. Unlike in the past when he would just run away after doing bad things, this guy took two steps and turned around and yelled at the two people. If people chase it again, it will run away again. Run a little further away and yell at me again. Is this a feud? Otherwise, Sahara's guy won't he pull hatred for no reason? Zheng Tan was lying on a tree, looking at the two people over there who were cursing but unable to catch up with Sahara. Then he looked at Sahara who was a hundred meters away and looking at this side but not running away. Sahara was taken away, and he just listened to the two people talking in low voices over there. "Hey, tell me. Did it see us last time, so it kept staring at us?" said one. "That can't be done. Isn't it just a dog? How can it know this? Besides, the car we drove with didn't belong to it. Why should it be meddling in its own business?" The other one took out a pack of tissues and planned to wipe it. But I looked at the wet wheels. Even the pedals were stained, and he frowned in disgust. He put the tissue paper back into his bag and kicked the car, "I don't want this car anymore! I'll just sell it when the time comes. It won't be worth anything anyway." Zheng Tan listened to the conversation between the two of them and noticed that when someone passed by, they wouldn't He squeaked and continued talking after someone passed by. Although his voice was very low, Zheng Tan could still hear it. It turned out that he was the one who stole the car. Sahara probably saw him stealing the car before, so he asked why Sahara¡¯s attitude was so bad. However, how did the two men who stole the car contact Sahara? Stole it to Sahara¡¯s house? Zheng Tan remembered that Ruan Ying, the owner of his family in Sahara, owned a four-wheel car, and no one in Ruan Ying's family seemed to ride a bicycle. Puzzled, Zheng Tan looked at Sahara over there. As soon as he looked over, Zheng Tan found that Sahara was eyeing someone again. She was a female student who looked quite polite. She was riding a bicycle, and Sahara ran over and connected. The man pushed the car down together, making the girl scream in fright. The two people who were discussing when to sell the car heard the noise, cursed and ran over, while the enthusiastic students who were passing by began to help comfort the fallen female student, and they had the intention of besieging Sahara. Zheng Tan saw something was wrong and ran over quickly. Sahara is also smart. When he sees a crowd, he turns around and runs away. This time he didn¡¯t even stop. Students around were clamoring to find the owner of the dog to hold him accountable. Many people agreed and said they would announce the incident on the school forum so that everyone should be careful about this dog in the future. Maybe the dog was infected with rabies or something. Some people seem to recognize Sahara. After all, Sahara has been in the school for more than five years, and Zheng Tan has been here for about the same time. Some students who often walk here can also recognize Sahara and know that it is the school.??The teacher¡¯s family raised it, but I¡¯m not sure whose family it belongs to. However, some people may know that those people were still talking when Zheng Tan left. Zheng Tan chased Sahara until he reached the corner of the compound. Sahara was hiding behind some trees. When Zheng Tan chased him, the guy was still poking his head around. When he saw Zheng Tan was the only one coming over, his courage immediately came back. His tail was still wagging happily. He didn't know whether he was happy to see Zheng Tan, or he was proud of what he had just done. Zheng Tan wanted to slap him a few times when he saw that doggy face. There¡¯s no use hiding there! ¡°I don¡¯t know if this guy has caused trouble to his master. However, think about it, was the female student Sahara pushed just now the same group as the two people before? They must know each other, but I don't know if they were involved in the crime. If the female student is innocent and the other party wants to hold her accountable, Sahara will probably be unlucky this time.
