Strange Life of a Cat

Of course, Xiao Qu also saw those cockroaches at the door, and at the moment he saw the cockroaches, he was actually imagining the magnificent picture of a black cat pounced on the cockroaches, but the black cat in front of him just glanced calmly, and then He jumped on a fairly clean chair and squinted his eyes to rest, not even taking a look at the still warm taro ribs and sweet and sour pork on the dining table next to him.

Comrade Xiao Qu suddenly felt choked. Then he looked at Zheng Tan who was lying on the chair with his eyes closed, not ready to move at all, and then looked at the food without a table cover, thought about it, but still ignored it, turned off the light in the living room, and walked into the room.

After sitting down, Xiao Qu opened a community forum and found a post posted a few days ago, and replied to a certain message: "Nonsense, the mice in my house don't eat cockroaches, and the cats I find don't pay attention to cockroaches!"

Ever since he discovered that there were mice in his home and his mousetrap didn't work, Xiao Qu's first thought was to ask for help by posting on the Internet. Buying mousetrap and mousetrap stickers are all tips given by netizens. Under the post, there is a netizen summarizing the reason why mice become smarter-"Animals that have experienced 'SARS' have greatly improved their IQ and vitality. Those with IQ and survivability were hunted and killed by humans during the SARS incident.”

Therefore, after mouse traps and mouse traps do not work, on the premise of not buying rat poison, the most talked about is to find a cat. Then there was Xiao Qu going to Jiao's house to borrow a cat.

Among the netizens who supported borrowing cats, a netizen who showed off his family's pet cat left a message saying, "Cats and mice are also natural enemies of cockroaches, and they will also prey on cockroaches." Xiao Qu is now arguing with this person.

"Otherwise, just look at it. If you don't even pay attention to cockroaches, that cat will definitely not be able to catch mice. Even if you want to catch them, you may not be able to catch them." The last netizen said.

"Let's wait and see!" Comrade Xiao Qu slammed the keyboard, as if he wanted to poke the opponent directly with his fingers.

Over there Xiao Qu was arguing with others on the forum, while Zheng Tan opened his eyes, bent his palms, and silently looked at the sharp claws protruding from between his fingers.

For the first test of catching mice, he wasn't nervous at all. On the contrary, Zheng Tan was a little excited and couldn't explain why.

It was the same last night. I killed several white mice one after another, but I didn't feel sick at all. Instead, I felt an inexplicable bloodthirsty excitement from the bottom of my heart, which I didn't usually have. Maybe it was because I didn't pay much attention to it, but what happened last night was like a fuse that ignited the bloodthirsty factor in my heart.

However, this should be due to the nature of the animal's body itself.

Cats are the kind of animals that will hunt even when they are full. Hunting is almost in their nature, even the most gentle-looking domestic cats have it.

As Jiao Yuan and the others said in a documentary they watched a few days ago, “There is a tiger that is ready to move and pounce on every well-fed cat that is lazily lying by the stove.”

With a long breath, Zheng Tan let go of his palms, closed his eyes and lay there quietly, but his ears were propped up, and he moved from time to time due to some movements, but because these sounds were not caused by mice, Zheng Tan never moved .

Time passed slowly, and the night was getting darker. Zheng Tan didn't notice the movement of the mouse, but there was indeed a smell of the mouse around, which proved that the mouse came out not long ago. Zheng Tan was not in a hurry, and waited quietly in the dark and messy living room.

With the light from the bedroom, Zheng Tan was able to see the entire living room clearly.

Most of the people in the family compound in the East District have fallen asleep, and the surroundings are no longer noisy. The Jiao family must also rest at this time, and there is no other movement except for Xiao Qu's typing on the keyboard and cursing.

Um?

Zheng Tan's ears moved, and he opened his eyes suddenly, the dilated pupils in the dark environment dilated even more due to the influence of emotions.

He jumped down from the chair silently, his body was low, but his moving speed was not slow. Under the cover of darkness, Zheng Tan came to the side of the pile of magazines and stopped. Zheng Tan's lurking was learned from the "sheriff".

Xiao Qu, who had just finished playing a game in the bedroom, took off the earphones to stretch his sore neck, and turned his head just in time to see Zheng Tan quietly getting down from the chair.

Have a show? !

Xiao Qu hurriedly got up from the computer chair, took out the digital camera from the drawer, paused, put the digital camera down, rummaged through the cabinet to find the DV, and tiptoed out of the room after turning it on. Xiao Qu jumped, hurriedly freed up one hand to answer, and spoke in a low voice.

Zheng Tan waited in the dark. The mouse came out from the study and didn't go to the kitchen at all. Obviously, it was already familiar with the environment here and the living habits of the head of the household. Xiao Qu basically doesn’t cook by himself, he always orders takeaway or eats in the cafeteria, and the food that can be eaten is either placed in the bedroom or in the living room. Now this mouse is coming here along the corner, and it stops after a while. Come down and pay attention to whether there is any danger.

This mouse was about the same size as the big white mouse that Zheng Tan killed last night, but in comparison, the vigilance of this mouse was hundreds of blocks lower than that of the experimental mice.

When it was about to reach the door of the bedroom, the mouse focused more on the person in the bedroom who was on the phone.

Just as the mouse approached the door, Zheng sighed.

Great acceleration in a short distance, like an arrow, pointing directly at the prey!

The mouse suddenly realized that there was a lurking hunter when Zheng Tan rushed over! From here, it was a long way to go back to the study to find a hiding place. If you turned around and ran, you would definitely be caught up in a few steps, so the mouse's strategy was to rush directly into the bedroom. Xiao Qu's bedroom is slightly better than the living room, but it is still a mess, but it is more shelter for mice and cockroaches. As long as it enters the bedroom, Zheng Tan really won't be able to hold it for a while.

However, it has no chance.

A black furry palm with sharp claws stepped on its tail, and before it could move, another furry palm was already pressing down on its neck.

Click!

The sound is so soft that people can't detect it at all.

But the mouse fell limp to the ground in an instant, without even twitching.

The mouse didn't even have time to squeak during the whole process.

Xiao Qu, who had just walked to the door, felt a black shadow flash past under his feet, and looked down, there was a black cat, and there was a mouse that stopped moving under the black cat's paw.

"I... trough!"

Xiao Qu almost threw out the phone and DV in his hand.

Look at the cat, then look at the mouse, and then look at the DV in my hand that doesn't work at all.

"Fuck me!" Xiao Qu cursed again.

This is the end?

Shouldn't it be hunted all over the room first, then played with applause after catching up, and finally eaten when it is about to die?

Nima, I didn't even say a few words on the phone, so it's over here?

What kind of trouble is such a clean claw technique going to cause? !

This, this, this... Absolutely dazzling, cool and tyrannical!

Whoever says that a cat that doesn't catch cockroaches can't catch mice is in a hurry!

"Hey, cricket, what's the matter with you?" The person on the other end of the phone felt that something was wrong with Xiao Qu and asked.

"Hey, uncle!" Xiao Qu hung up the phone directly, and turned on the light in the living room so that he could see more clearly.

Xiao Qu took off the two chopsticks from the unfinished lunch box and poked the mouse.

Do not move.

Really dead?

He seemed to feel that the chopsticks were not suitable for his hand, so he threw away the chopsticks and Xiao Qu ran to the kitchen to get the tongs that he hadn't used since he lived in, and swung around with the mouse, as if to make sure that the mouse was dead or not. I also used a digital camera to take pictures from all directions and multiple angles, and then immediately returned to the computer, stopped playing the game, and hurriedly posted the photos on the forum, vividly describing the scene just now. As a result, many people who replied did not believe it.

A senior cat owner sent out a few photos. In the photos, some of the mice were bitten all over the body, and some had only incomplete limbs and tails, and the torso was gone.

Xiao Qu turned his head and looked at the black cat in the living room that was stretching but didn't even want to look at his prey again, and continued to argue with the people in the forum. At this moment, the phone rang again, and Xiao Qu held the phone between his shoulders. At the same time, he tapped the keyboard very fast.

Zheng Tan walked around the house, but didn't find the smell of other mice, so he stopped waiting here.

Just as he was about to return to his chair and squint for a while, Zheng Tan moved his ears and heard someone singing downstairs.

After walking out of the room, Zheng Tan went to the balcony, filtered out Xiao Qu's phone calls and typing on the keyboard, and listened carefully, this time he heard clearly.

"Last night's,~last night's stars,~have fallen~fall,~~disappeared in~the distant galaxy.~~~"

Zheng Tan: "..."

The voice that was deliberately lowered but couldn't hide its own characteristics, the vibrato that was sung to express singing emotions, and then connected to this tune that was older than Zheng Tan...

Paralyzed, the bitch downstairs stayed up most of the night and started singing nostalgic old songs again!
