Strange Life of a Cat - Chapter 360
[Chapter 348 Immortal?]
After returning to the compound, Zheng Tan didn’t see Xiaoyouzi on the lawn below. He went upstairs to go home and found Xiaoyouzi talking on the phone.
It turns out that a lot of people know about the twin stars accompanying the moon. It was mentioned in the newspaper a few days ago, but many people didn’t care about it, but some people have been paying attention, especially Jiao Yuan and the others.
It was Jiao Yuan’s phone call just now, telling Xiaoyouzi to go down to the courtyard to look at it. The angle is a problem, and you can’t see it from the balcony at home.
Hearing that Xiaoyouzi said that he had seen it, Jiao Yuan didn’t say much. A few friends over there were taking pictures, and they also calculated the approximate distance between the three stars and the trajectory of the next night. See if it’s the same as what the paper says.
After that, Xiaoyouzi also received text messages from other people one after another. She didn’t tell anyone what happened downstairs just now, which made Zheng Tan relieved.
At that time, Zheng Tan’s reaction was still very fast when the phone rang, and it was very dark in the bushes, so he was sure that Xiaoyouzi didn’t see him, but he was worried that Xiaoyouzi would think too much.
Now that everything is the same as usual when seeing Xiaoyouzi, Zheng Tan is relieved.
After calming down, Zheng Tan thought of the feeling that someone was staring at him in the old tile-roofed area just now.
It’s just that he was in a hurry just now, and he didn’t see or smell any unfamiliar smell, so he didn’t stay there for long.
Zheng Tan didn’t think he was too careless, even if he was too careless, Zheng Tan wanted to go over and check again, but… Looking at the wall clock on the wall, it was very late, and Jiao’s father was back. If he went out at this time, most of the Jiao family members Would not approve.
Forget it, check back tomorrow.
If anyone is there.
After so long, he should have left, and he might not be able to catch anyone now.
Although he couldn’t go out, Zheng Tan still recalled what happened last night from the beginning.
What he did at night was just a temporary idea. Originally, he just wanted to go out for a walk and digest his food. He didn’t even have time to wear a vest when he picked up the mobile phone after seeing the twin stars in the sky with the moon.
Thinking about it, Zheng Tan’s beard shivered when he recalled the ringing of his mobile phone, and recalled in a longer time.
He remembered.
Since he used this mobile phone, the ringtone of incoming calls is basically silent, and the vibration is lowered in a few cases, but the ringtone has never been turned on.
What’s more, the bell that rang today, Zheng Tan, was very unfamiliar.
The phone is passive.
This was Zheng Tan’s first guess.
He had put his phone in a small tree hole in the woods.
There is only a cell phone and a bag outside.
Zheng Tan couldn’t get into the hole at all, the hole was too small, so he just hid his phone there.
What was it like when you first started hiding?
Leaving Chuhua City for so long.
Zheng Tan can’t remember anymore, the bag that holds the phone still looks the same, and even the knots on the bag are the kind that Zheng Tan often plays.
Of course, it’s all just looks.
When Zheng Tan went there to get his phone, he didn’t smell anyone else’s scent, but that didn’t prove that no one came.
Zheng Tan has been away for a season. During this time, windy and rainy weather is not uncommon. In this way, even if there is a smell, it will dissipate almost, not to mention that the other party deliberately reduces his presence and takes preventive measures.
If the other party found out there soon after Zheng Tan left Chuhua City, the smell would really be hard to exist.
Just, who is it?
Several objects of suspicion flashed across Zheng Tan’s mind, and the person he most suspected was Liu Ba.
Of course, it’s just a suspicion, and everything will be discussed when we go to the old tile-roofed house tomorrow.
Early the next morning, after Jiao’s mother and Xiaoyouzi left, Zheng Tan followed Jiao’s father out.
Went to the staff cafeteria for breakfast, then Dad Jiao went to the courtyard, Zheng Tan walked directly to the old tiled house area.
At this time, there are students in the old tile-roofed area who memorize words here. It is quiet here, no one disturbs or makes noise. Sometimes there are early morning activities of the club.
Zheng Tan walked along the route he took when he came to hide his mobile phone yesterday. At the same time, he also carefully searched around this route, sniffing to see what he could find.
Nothing was found.
I ran to the tiled house where the phone was hidden, and there was no smell in the tiled house to prove that others had been there.
There was the smell of mice, and there was a recently pulled mouse excrement on the old dusty tabletop. It was estimated that because Zheng Tan had not been here for a long time, some small mice broke in.
These Zheng Tan didn’t care.
After walking out of the tile-roofed house, Zheng Tan jumped onto a stone bench and glanced around. There were many places where people could be hiding, so I wasn’t sure.
Just as Zheng Tan was thinking, a gust of wind blew, and the wind smelled of the students’ breakfast.
Zheng Tan looked over and saw a student not far away with the meat patties bought in the cafeteria and the exam materials in the other hand, sitting on the edge of the flower bed over there while eating and watching.
Looking at the wind direction, Zheng Tan recalled yesterday’s wind direction. When he came here last night, he also saw leaves being blown away. He inferred the wind direction from the direction of the leaves and the buildings here.
I’ve heard that clever predators approach their prey downwind so it’s harder for the prey to smell the predator.
Does this apply to stalkers?
Last night’s downwind was…
Zheng Tan looked to the side, then walked over, observing the places where people’s body size was easy to hide, and then walked over to carefully identify the smell, the cat’s nose is still very good.
Behind a bush nearly two meters high, there is the smell of smoke. Zheng Tan is familiar with this smell. Besides, there is also the smell of people. Although the smell is very light, if Zheng Tan remembers it well, it should be… …
Zheng Tan suddenly turned around and looked behind him.
At a place more than fifty meters away from Zheng Tan, Liu Ba held a burrito in a plastic bag with the name of the school cafeteria, and walked here while nibbling, staring at Zheng Tan.
Zheng Tan knew that he was not smart, he was better than his IQ. Eight out of ten people he knew around could compare Zheng Tan, not to mention people like Er Mao and Liu Ba.
In fact, when he decided to seek Liu Ba’s help before the earthquake, Zheng Tan thought that he might be discovered because of this. People like Liu Ba are too sophisticated, and the possibility of exposure is very high, but at the same time, Liu Ba was also the most suitable at that time. The person who went to spread the news, since Zheng Tan made a choice at that time.
No regrets, no regrets.
The brief contact after the earthquake made Zheng Tan aware of it, but after that, there was no movement, and Zheng Tan held a fluke mentality that fortunately he was not found.
Now it seems that luck is not worth it.
What was hidden here yesterday was Liu Ba. This Zheng Tan is now sure that if the other party really decides to find it, there is still a way to find it.
Liuba’s special occupation allows him to have more experience, tools and channels in this area.
I just don’t know how much Liuba knows.
While Zheng Tan was thinking about how to deal with it later, Liu Ba threw the plastic bag into the trash after eating the burrito.
Keep going this way.
The speed is not fast, and it still maintains the previous pace, but Zheng Tan can feel that Liu Ba is not at peace now.
Anyone who knows that such a thing is unlikely to calm down.
I don’t know how many rounds I have been trampled by alpaca.
Walk in with six or eight.
Zheng Tan found out.
Liuba’s eyes were still bloodshot, and the whole person looked as if he hadn’t slept all night.
Was it too shocking that this guy was hiding here last night.
So that you haven’t slept all night?
Zheng Tan thought to himself.
Zheng Tan’s guess is very close to the truth.
Liu Ba really thought hard all night in the cold wind. When he came back to his senses, the sky was already white, and he still had no sleepiness. He went to the bathroom of the student cafeteria to wash his face and bought a breakfast. , Continue to come here to squat, and sure enough, I ran into it.
Liuba never thought that the owner of this mysterious phone number would be a cat. He had suspected many people, including Professor Jiao, but evidence one by one showed that the cat really did this.
Others know nothing about it.
Liuba stopped two meters away in front of Zheng Tan, one person and one cat faced off like this, all thinking about what the other party would do now.
Zheng Tan thought, if this guy knew too much, would he kick someone and run away, or would he calmly talk to Liu Ba?
Playing sloppy eyes and pretending to be stupid is definitely useless to Liuba. Since it can be found here, and even the mobile phone has been moved, how can there be no evidence?
Can’t speak?
It’s okay, there is Morse code, and it’s not unused before.
But if Liu Ba wanted to threaten or make this matter public to make Zheng Tan’s situation difficult, Zheng Tan would immediately seek help.
Jiao Dad, Er Mao, Wei Ling, and Fang San seem to be more reliable.
Sure enough, there are many people you know, and there are still ways to go.
Before Liuba met, the black cat kept staring at him without any other action, hesitating how to speak, the look in the cat’s eyes was not very good.
“Fairy? Monster?” Liuba asked.
You monster!
Seeing that Zheng Tan’s eyes became a little more dangerous, Liu Ba quickly raised his hands, expressing that he was not malicious, “Don’t get excited, let’s have a good talk. However, shall we talk about it in another place first?
” When Zheng Tan spoke, in the eyes of other people nearby, he was talking to himself. They would not think that Zheng Tan had a problem, but would think that Liu Ba was a little neurotic.
Zheng Tan could feel that Liu Ba was not malicious, but it was necessary to be careful and prepared for everything.
Zheng Tan wouldn’t follow Liu Ba. If he wanted to find a place to talk, it would be safer to find it himself.
This piece of Zheng Tan has long since memorized it, and he knows where it is quiet and where there is no one.
After Zheng Tan lifted his foot and walked away, Liu Ba also followed, keeping a distance of two or three meters between one person and one cat. This seemed to be their warning distance, and both sides were on guard.
Take Liuba to a path not far from the old tile-roofed area, where there are several wooden chairs.
Zheng Tan jumped on one of them and looked at Liu Ba.
Liuba sat down on another chair across the path, UU reading www.
sonicmtl.com looked around, there was no one else here, and there was no need to worry about being overheard.
After confirming that no one else was around, Liu Ba took out his pockets, turned them all over, and sighed to Zheng: “I swear, I didn’t bring any weapons or spy equipment. The conversation between us was only the two of us… I know.”
Originally, Liu Ba planned to say “two people”, but suddenly realized that he was facing a cat, and changed his words in time, feeling a little uncomfortable. However, Liu Ba has experienced a lot of things, and his ability to accept is also limited. Strong, adjust your mentality soon.
“Let’s get to know each other again, I’m happy, the surname is high, the name is high, the joy is high, the joy is high.”
Zheng Tan: “…” So, is the surname that this guy used when he pretended to be the real one?
As Liu Ba said, he picked up a thin branch that had fallen from the wooden chair, and used the branch to draw his name on the bald land with no grass beside it.
The writing of the character “高” is still normal, but when writing the character “xing”, it is not written in the original stroke order, but firstly wrote a straight “six”, and then added an inverted on the “six” “Eight”.
