Strange Life of a Cat

Zheng Tan's feeling in this room was that he was not surprised, but rather frightened. I shudder when I think of the roasted duck feet Ermao talked about.

After installing the camera, Zheng Tan and Er Mao left the room and went to open the other two rooms.

The curtains in the bedroom and study room were well covered. There were some work-related documents in the bedroom, as well as several locked cabinets. There were probably bankbooks and so on in there. Ermao wasn't very interested in this. As for the study room, there is a desktop computer with a password set. Ermao is not that skilled yet and does not bring any related tools. However, Ermao also places a camera in an inconspicuous place on the bookshelf.

"This person is either too cautious or timid. He doesn't dare to let people know what he is doing, even the curtains are so well covered, or he has a dark psychology." Er Mao muttered.

Zheng Tan didn't smell the cat's scent in these two rooms, maybe it was covered up by the sprayed air freshener. After Er Mao installed the camera, one person and one cat cleaned up some traces and prepared to leave.

When they were leaving the back door, the black-and-white cat was squatting on the wall looking at Zheng Tan and Er Mao. It didn't show much vigilance, but more of curiosity. It felt a little more close to Er Mao. It remembered that this man gave them The food was delicious.

Back at the East District compound, Er Mao entered the house with his front feet, and Zheng Tan squeezed in with his back feet. He wanted to see what Er Mao would do next. It's a pity that Ermao didn't intend to let Zheng Tan watch.

Er Mao tried to drive him away twice but was ignored by Zheng Tan. Seeing that Zheng Tan had no intention of leaving, Er Mao closed the door, pulled a chair and sat down, his eyes almost level with Zheng Tan who was standing on the table.

"I said, black coal, our country's animal protection regulations are not perfect, and there is no clear law against killing cats. Otherwise, why do you think those cat meat restaurants and dog meat restaurants can put up big signs and still have a prosperous business? However, killing cats has nothing to do with killing cats. Cat abuse is different. The only way to punish those who abuse cats and dogs is to condemn them. Of course, if condemnation is useful, your cat’s living standard will probably be improved by another level, but unfortunately, it’s useless.”

Er Mao made a helpless gesture, "However, these days, sons compete with their fathers, and pets compete with their owners. If you, the cat dad, can increase your influence, you can go everywhere."

With these words, Ermao seemed to be explaining to Zheng Tan, and also seemed to be convincing himself.

"Well, look at the guy we've seen now. If you sue him, it's hard to get any results. Even if you throw him into the police station, he can still come out fine, and at most he will receive a painless punishment. Really. In terms of law, what I did to pick the lock like this is worse than him killing and abusing cats. Moreover, not to mention the whole country, even in Chuhua City, there is definitely more than one person who abuses cats, and there may be more people who do this. The methods are also more intense. You and I don't know those people, but we have to create some pressure to make them restrain themselves.

There may be relevant laws in a few years, but as far as the current situation is concerned, because there is no law to follow, law enforcement agencies cannot intervene, and the main force is only civil society, so it is better to find other ways to make him uneasy, and it is best to make a big fuss. This has attracted social attention. "Ermao said seriously, "As my grandfather said, the eyes of the masses are sharp and the power of the masses is infinite. We must believe in the masses and rely on the masses. "

If Er Mao's grandfather knew that Er Mao used this sentence in this context, I don't know what he would think.

Seeing the black cat on the table tilting his head slightly and lowering his eyelids as if he was thinking, Ermao raised his hand and pushed, "Go back first, I'll take care of this. Come on, hurry up, I'm going to bed, don't even think about stepping on my bed." plastic bottle!"

Zheng Tan was pushed off the table and kicked out of the door. He squatted at the door and continued to think about what he had just thought about. After thinking about it, he went upstairs.

Zheng Tan has always been curious about what Er Mao did. Unfortunately, he didn't encounter Er Mao when he went downstairs again. Zheng Tan didn't have the skills to open locks, so he could only wait.

The next day, when no one at home was surfing the Internet and browsing the forum, Zheng Tan saw a hot post on the homepage. It was from the cat area. Because the discussion was too hot, it was posted on the homepage. Zheng Tan clicked in and took a look. .

The title of the post is not long - "Another cat-abusing scumbag!"

The poster is a guy whose ID is "All good names have been given by cats".

The pictures and texts describe what he saw, heard and felt in detail and with great emotion. The description of things is clear and the rendering is strong enough. With those pictures, it is impossible for this post not to be so noisy. Moreover, it only appeared some time ago. There was a top student who abused cats, and then a "social elite" who abused cats appeared, adding fuel to the fire.

The pictures in the post are all familiar to Zheng Tan, the familiar flower bed, the familiar cat paw with burns and dirt, the familiar object... Only the person in it is mosaic, and the specific name is not mentioned, just If the surname is written, replace it with X.

Zheng Tan's computer skills are not very good. In the past, he only knew how to watch movies and play games on the Internet. He had not learned any other high-end technologies. Therefore, now Zheng Tan does not know the IP address of this "good name has been given by a cat". You can only see the person's registration time.

The time shows that he was registered three years ago. As for the poster, he is either Ermao or someone he knows.

As I continued to scroll down, I found that someone else was leaking the professional title and residential address of the person in the picture. I either heard it from friends or learned about it through some channels. Someone also mentioned the "Chuhua Morning Post".

The Jiao family did not subscribe to the "Chuhua Morning News" this year, and Zheng Tan didn't know what was reported in the newspaper. However, judging from what the netizen said, it seems that the "Chuhua Morning Post" only mentioned it slightly, not very specifically, and it sounded like a small piece of news that would not attract attention.

It seems that the strength is not strong. Or maybe Ermao has a trick up his sleeve? I always feel like that guy’s work won’t end that easily.

Zheng Tan turned the page forward and looked at the original post carefully.

There are several pictures in the post about that object. In the picture, the metal mesh at the bottom of the object is connected to a certain voltage of electricity. The cat trapped inside jumps high. When the cat steps on the metal mesh, it will Electric sparks exploded.

Zheng Tan has seen the cat in the picture, one of the cats around there. I wonder what the cat owner will do when he knows the truth.

In addition to the evidence pictures of cat abuse, the post also cited a previous case of being sentenced for violently protecting a cat, telling everyone to "think twice before you act." As for the degree of "thinking twice before leaping", the post didn't mention a word about it. Many people have already understood it and started thinking about how to make a sidestep.

Perhaps, this post is just an exaggeration.

Before that, if Zheng Tan had his own way, it would have been better to solve it directly, just like when he scared the tattooed man. But now...what does Ermao want to do? Are you really going to make a big fuss?

At lunch time, when Zheng Tan followed Xiao Youzi upstairs, he saw Er Mao coming back with an insulated lunch box. He stopped at the door of the third floor and stared at it, but did not continue to follow Xiao Youzi upstairs.

"I'll take you to the theater tomorrow morning. Don't sleep in." After saying this, Ermao slammed the door shut without waiting for Zheng Tan to react.

Going to the theater?

Sure enough, there is a backup plan!

The next day, Zheng Tan got up early, as usual, because he had to send Little Yuzi to school. It was rare to see Er Mao yawning when I went downstairs. This guy usually slept until noon, so there were not many times when he got up early like this.

After delivering the little grapefruit, Zheng Tan followed Er Mao towards the old street.

There was a rice noodle restaurant not far from the man's house. Er Mao sat there and had breakfast leisurely. He saw an aunt walking into the alley with her leather shoes. Er Mao wiped her mouth and looked at the bored side next to her, wagging her tail and playing with ants. Zheng sighed: "Let's go!"

The man in the room was dressed neatly and walked out. His hair was combed meticulously and some hairspray was added. When he came out with his briefcase, he happened to see the aunt from the neighborhood committee walking towards him with an unkind look on his face.

The man was confused. The last time he saw this aunt, the water supply was shut down for a day because of maintenance at the water plant. What happened this time?

No matter what he was thinking, the man still showed his signature smile and was about to say good morning. Before he could say the word "morning", he was sprayed with saliva by the aunt in front of him.

"Oh, what a sin. How can you bear to do such a thing? You really know people but don't know what they know. You are such a morally corrupt person and it has seriously affected the appearance of the city!..."

Zheng Tan and Er Mao hid not far away and watched the man being pointed at and scolded by the aunt. Of course, he was a person with a job after all, and the aunt scolded people more politely, without the vulgar vocabulary of the market. However, the words ranged from mental health to social harmony, from harm to cats to threats to the country and the people, and they did not stop for ten minutes.

Sometimes, these aunts are quite cute. Zheng Tan thought to himself.

After this aunt, several more people came, but they looked like reporters. As for which newspaper reporter they were from, Zheng Tan had no idea.

The man seemed very impatient. He looked at his watch, pushed aside the people standing around him, and left in a hurry.

Seeing that Er Mao had no intention of leaving, Zheng Tan continued to stay there and watch.

Soon, some people gathered around the house, because there were several aunts there to stop them, and some young people were not allowed to break in at will, so they simply waited around. Some neighbors who lived around didn't understand what was going on. After asking around with a gossip mentality, they were shocked. They also had children at home. Would people who abuse cats like this abuse children in the same way? No one can tell for sure about the child, and since we all live so close together, I feel chills just thinking about it.

"He just moved here two years ago. The original owner sold the house to him, but we are not familiar with him and we don't usually talk to him!" Several other nearby residents quickly clarified that they lived here. He is still a good person, unlike that cat abuser.

More and more people are coming here, and a large part of them are cat-loving groups. This narrow alley is full of people, including reporters. Of course, some people come just to join in the fun.

There was a police car parked at the other end of the alley, and two people in police uniforms were standing against the car door. They had just received a call from the police saying that there was an illegal assembly here. But looking at this situation now, after understanding the reason, it seems that the situation is a bit complicated.

The policeman near the front door sighed and said, "You just watch here while I go buy a pack of cigarettes."

"I still want to pee and escape!" The other person rolled his eyes.

"My mother-in-law is there. She likes cats. Don't you see that she is so angry now? I'm not very good at talking. If I make her unhappy, the situation will become more serious. Brother, please help me!"

"Ask your wife to come and take her home."

"Forget it, my wife likes cats more, and her temper will probably make me break the cat abuser."

Another policeman: "..."
