cat and rabbit cage

In what was originally a forest, communities and shopping malls have been built, and a new road has been built to lead to the distant city center.Originally, the builder wanted to build this place into a new town with high-quality housing, but after the houses were built, because the traffic was too inconvenient, not many humans actually moved here.

The builder had no choice but to lower the house price, but it still had no effect. In the end, he had to rent out the vacant house at a low price.

Because the rent was cheap, the house was rented out quickly, and one of the five-story apartments was rented out in less than a day.

The address of this apartment is No. [-], Section [-], Forest Road. Although the residents are fully occupied, they are rarely seen going out. The impression of the residents of this apartment is as follows:

Uncle Yuan, who lived on the fifth floor, seldom went out because he was old and it was inconvenient for him to go up and down the stairs.

The person living on the fourth floor is a thin young man who wears glasses with profound myopia and is not good at communicating with people. He is probably the so-called nerd who only socializes with a computer?

A pair of cousins ​​surnamed She live on the third floor. They are in a very good relationship. Although they don’t go out very often, they always go in and out together when they go out. Hugging and hugging, very affectionate.In particular, the two of them are feminine and soft-spoken, and when they talk to people, their thin eyes keep looking straight at you, making people hairy, and they don't dare to ask or even think about these two things. What is the relationship between a man...

On the second floor lived a beautiful woman, surnamed Hu, who was always well-dressed and full of fragrance. I heard that she used to be the mother of a certain hotel in a big city. Come to this remote small place, and occasionally make a small usury to make a living.You can always borrow money as long as you ask her, but it’s strange to say that if you don’t pay back the money at that time, many strange events will happen around the borrower, such as street lamps will suddenly break when you pass by, walking on the road will cause you to lose money. Suddenly being hit by a car that appeared out of nowhere, being followed by a stranger, things in the house disappearing inexplicably... etc. Although it is not a life-threatening event, it always makes people feel nervous.But as long as the money is paid back, these weird events will disappear quickly.

As for the first floor, which serves as both a residence and a storefront, a black-haired young man lives there. He is slender and nimble, with elegant movements and a pair of jet-black eyes that seem to be very affectionate. I don’t know how many little girls in the community are fascinated , always secretly comparing him with those popular male idol singers.

The young man’s surname is Miao. No one knows his name. Some people call him “Miao Miao”, which sounds like a pet’s name, but the young man is not angry when he hears it, but he still prefers to be called “Miao Miao”. store manager".

Yes, the store manager.

He opened a store, and the merchandise in it was him.

The services he provides include: psychic psychics, contemplation of falling shadows, spiritual summoning, and occasionally assists in finding lost pets.

Basically, as long as there are services related to the spiritual world, he can get involved. As long as there are customers who need services, negotiate the price, close the doors and windows, pull up the chairs and sit down, and then start "service".

As for the service?

It is said that the guests who have been here are quite satisfied. Once a fat urban woman who was full of jewels came here to find him in a black Mercedes, saying that she wanted to see her pet Pomeranian who died last month, no matter how much it cost. Money is fine.

Store Manager Miao then closed the door and window, pulled up a chair and sat down beside the woman.

He closed his eyes, and murmured meaninglessly. When he opened his eyes again, his dark pupils turned into a light brown color, and they even exuded a lovely light.

The woman covered her lips in surprise.

Aren't these eyes and this look the same as Xiao Mi who just died last month?

"Xiao Mi!" The scholarly family

The woman suddenly hugged the young man into her arms, and the overfull F-cup on her chest almost suffocated the young man to death on the spot.

The hands clenched into fists passionately (?) grasped and hugged the woman until the woman finally let go.

The woman was already in tears, her face covered with heavy makeup.

Store Manager Miao lowered his eyebrows and whimpered a few times, then put his hands on the woman's shoulders, and leaned over his face to lick the woman's tears.

Oh my god, this is exactly how Xiao Mi acted like a baby to her before!

"Xiao Mi... Mom misses you so much... Where are you now..." The woman was crying out of breath, "It's all Mom's fault... She didn't take good care of you..."

"Woof!" Store Manager Miao suddenly called out.

The woman was excited again.

This call is exactly the same as her little mi!

At this moment, she completely believed that the handsome young man in front of her was possessed by Xiaomi!

"Xiao Mi! I'm sorry..."

"Wow!"

"Ah, do you want Mommy not to be sad?"

"Wow!"

"Okay, okay, I know. But mom really misses you... woo..." The woman raised her hand covered with jeweled rings and wiped the tears from her face, "You have to live a good life over there... It's best to be able to Hurry up and reincarnate into a good family. It's a pity that my mother is too old to give birth, otherwise I really want you to choose my mother's belly and be my child, oh..."

◇

After half an hour.

With red and swollen eyes, the woman walked out of the shop with satisfaction, got into a black Mercedes and left.

The store manager stood respectfully at the door to see off the customers.

After the woman left, store manager Miao returned to the store, heaved a sigh of relief, and slumped on a chair.

Just being pinched and hugged by that woman, and almost passed out by the smell of humans, he just feels weak now... Money is really hard to earn, but to survive in the world of humans, one must have this kind of Paper and metal can be exchanged for all the necessities of life.

I really don't know which idiot came up with this strange exchange method?

At this time, the store door was dark, and store manager Miao waved his hand without thinking, "I won't do it today."

He was exhausted.

"You're lying."

A questioning voice came from the door.

The store manager wasn't angry either. Anyway, many humans didn't believe in such ghostly things, and most of them came to question his ability, but he didn't care.

Besides, to say he is a liar is not entirely slanderous.

The store manager turned his head gracefully and slowly, looking at the figure at the door with slightly narrowed eyes.

No, that figure is not a "person", it just appears in the form of a person.

The store manager's body froze suddenly.

No, impossible!

How, how could it be "he"! ?

It's been so long, "he" should have hung up long ago, right?

Is "he" also...

◇

A tall figure walked in.

The man was dressed in white and looked around the store curiously. He saw that the shelves were filled with various candles, oil lamps, herbs and many unknown magical ritual utensils. There was a faint fragrance in the air, like oriental spices.Other than that, there are no "goods" in this store.

After the figure in white approached, the store manager Miao, who was dressed in black, found that the clothes on the man's body were full of dirt and tears, and the delicate and white skin was exposed from time to time under the cloth.There was a long scar on his right cheek. Although his hair was black, it shone with a silver-white light in the dim light; Although the bottom is dark brown, there is a faint light like a dark red gemstone around the dark brown pupils.

"It...seems safe here?" the figure asked again.

But store manager Miao jumped onto the chair vigilantly, squatted down, and was thinking in his heart that if the other party suddenly attacked him, would he jump up and attack or turn around and run upstairs to ask for rescue?

This time he is not alone!He has a companion!

He is no longer afraid of this shameless fat white——

"Is there anything to eat?" the figure asked suddenly.

Store Manager Miao was stunned.

He looked at the white figure who was in a state of embarrassment, and he couldn't make up his mind. A pair of black pupils shining with amber light in the dim light stared at the uninvited guest in front of him without daring to relax for a moment.

The white figure raised his nose and sniffed, then wrinkled his nose and said, "It smells fishy." He turned his head again, looked at the store manager, and asked, "At least there is clean water, right?"

"Get out!" The store manager's hair stood on end.

The white figure showed a puzzled expression, and asked, "Then at least give me something to eat first? I finally found a companion..."

"Boom" sound.

Before he finished speaking, the white figure passed out.

The moment the white figure fell, the slender black figure of Shopkeeper Miao rushed to the ceiling like lightning and hung on the brass-colored antique chandelier.

Scared to death, he thought this guy was going to treat him again! ＠##＄%↑↑&!

He hung on the chandelier for a while, seeing that the white figure underneath seemed to have really fainted and remained motionless, so he got a little bolder, stabilized his body, and carefully looked at the situation in front of him.

It's that fat white rabbit.

I didn't expect "it" to be alive.

That fat white rabbit once did such shameless things to him, even if it turned to ashes, he would still recognize it!Especially the smell of the white rabbit, he really wants to forget it, but he can't forget it!

It's just that I didn't expect the white rabbit to become a spirit, and...why did he become so down and out?Still hungry and passed out?

Could it be that the White Rabbit was driven out of the forest because of "Destroyer Day" and ended up living on the streets?

Thinking of the panic of a fat white rabbit helplessly escaping in the flames of the forest, and the appearance of hiding in the streets of human beings, Store Manager Miao had to admit that his heart softened.

They are all "same" after all.

Seeing that the white figure below was still motionless, Store Manager Miao turned around on the chandelier lightly with fear and lightly landed on the floor.

The white figure remained silent.

The slender black figure slowly approached, curiously wondering what the white rabbit in human form looked like?

This guy really doesn't know if he got the blessing from cultivation in his previous life, or did he get the opportunity to practice by mistake?Otherwise, a white rabbit from the city (after living in the human world, the black cat has already known many smells in human cities, and knows where the smell of the white rabbit came from at that time), why can it also become a sperm?And survived on Doomsday?

Since there was no one around, the store manager snapped his fingers, and the door of the store was darkened. From the outside, it looked like the store was closed, but from the inside, the outside could be seen clearly.

The store manager curled up his fingers in both hands and held them into cat's claws. When he opened his fingers again, the nails on the top began to grow longer and thinner, and the back of his hands also quickly grew thick and soft black hair.

A black cat appeared next to the white figure.

Anyway, they are all "of the same kind", so there is no need to work so hard to dress up as a human, so as not to accidentally reveal the cat's tail.

The black cat stretched out its paw and pushed the white figure. It seemed that it was really hungry and dizzy, and there was no reaction at all.

Regardless, will this white rabbit starve to death?

And the black cat is also very curious, why the white rabbit is not dead?And why did you find this place?

Strong curiosity once again suppressed a strong sense of anxiety and crisis (this guy in front of him is a pervert who "molested" him many years ago!), it not only decided to save the white rabbit's life, but also decided to take it in.

Anyway, there is a small hanging garden on the top floor of this apartment, just take a few wooden boards and build a rabbit nest.

◇

He was awakened by the aroma of food.

The aroma of fruits, bananas, apples, pineapples, oranges, strawberries, tangerines... He recognized the smell of these fruits, but he couldn't remember when or where he ate them.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and what came into view was a pair of amber eyes.

cat's eyes.

"Are you awake?" The black cat took a step back.

He hurriedly looked around and saw a red old ape holding those fruits in his hands. Without saying a word, he rushed forward and grabbed two bananas, and after peeling them (he even knew that bananas needed to be peeled!) he ate them with big mouthfuls. Non-stop, as if hungry for three days and three nights.

No, not just that long.

He also couldn't remember the last time he had food.

"Hey! Eat slowly! Be careful not to damage your body!" The black cat stretched out its paw and scratched him, reminding him kindly.

But he didn't listen, and he still stuffed the food into his mouth desperately, fearing that the next meal would not be available.

At this time, the red ape spoke: "Young man, eat slowly, there is a lot of food."

He froze.

Still a lot of food?

Just when he wanted to pack all the food away, a fox jumped out from his feet.

"Wow!" He was taken aback, and then realized that he was already in human form, so he didn't need to be so afraid of these carnivorous animals anymore, so he became bolder again.

"Where's the food?" he asked.

"In your mouth!"

He turned his head and saw two huge snakes intertwined and coiled on the floor, looking at him with interest, the snakes kept spitting out letters.

"Rabbit." Green Snake said.

"It's been a long time since I ate fresh food," said the white snake.

"But how did it become so big?" After the green snake finished speaking, it opened its jaw, as if it was exercising the muscles there.

"And there's only one, how do we divide it?" White Snake said.

"I'll eat it first, and I'll spit out half of it for you after eating." Green Snake said.

The man in white who was eating bananas stared at the two snakes in horror, then looked left and right, then suddenly snatched all the fruits from the red ape's hand, and hid behind the black cat.

The appearance of a big man trembling behind the black cat holding hands full of fruits is really... very funny.

And why hide behind the black cat?

It stands to reason that he should choose to hide behind the red ape who is also mainly vegetarian, right?

But fortunately, all the animals present knew that this big man was actually a weak herbivore, and it was understandable to have such a behavior. No one thought it was funny or abrupt.

"How did you become a human?" asked the vixen.

The man in white shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"How did you escape the forest fire?"

As if he had been suddenly awakened from the most terrifying part of his memory, the man in white had a frightened look on his face, but then he turned blank again.

"I... I remember the forest was on fire, but I can't remember how I escaped."

"How old are you?" Red Ape asked.

"...I can't remember."

The animals looked at each other.

"Have you always been human?" asked the vixen.

The man in white gave the female fox a wary look before slowly nodding.

"Did you turn back? Turn back into a rabbit?" the vixen asked again.

The man in white shook his head quickly, and said, "Wouldn't it be that you caught and ate me immediately after turning back into a rabbit? I'm not that stupid!"

"I don't want to eat you! お稥" has been in the human world for a long time, and the female fox has also acquired human habits. When she gets excited, she stands up on her two hind legs, and her two front legs are forked beside her slender waist. , "What's the benefit of eating you? It will only make this place dirty and smelly, and I don't want to cause trouble."

In fact, after being told by the white rabbit, the vixen really missed the taste of fresh flesh and tender flesh.But they live in human apartments now, and they have to obey (most of) the rules of the human world, such as: pay rent on time every month, don't make the house dirty and messy (at least when the landlord comes to collect rent Keep it clean and tidy) and so on, so the vixen has been eating frozen meat from human supermarkets for months, which is hard and stale, and she doesn't like cooked food (despite the black cat's repeated assurances that it is cooked Seasoned afterwards and really tasty).

The man in white looked at the way the female fox stared at him and swallowed his saliva, of course he knew what this guy was planning.

He looked around anxiously, looking for an exit where he could escape at any time.

"Why can't you turn back into a rabbit?" Green Snake, who had been coiled on the floor, asked regretfully.

If the man in white could turn back into a rabbit, it would be much more convenient for him to eat with the white snake!

The man in white scratched his hair in confusion, and said, "I tried to turn back into a rabbit, but I can't seem to."

The animals were very surprised, and immediately discussed the seriousness of the matter in whispers among themselves.

In the end, Red Ape uttered a word that was hard to understand: "This is probably a 'sequel'?"

All the animals present were bewildered.

"What is the 'sequel'? Can I eat it?" the female fox asked without shame.

"That can't be eaten, that's a description of a... state after being sick."

"But we are not sick." The black cat raised its hand and asked.

"This...is just a metaphor." The red ape scratched its head, but it didn't know much about the word itself.

"So what exactly does that mean?" the black cat asked again.

"That's...that's what he looks like!" Red Ape pointed at the man in white anxiously, "It's obviously a rabbit, but it can turn into a human with the magic power, but it can't turn back into a rabbit!"

The animals discussed in whispers for a while, and finally decided that what the elder red ape said really made sense.

"Then what should he do now?" asked the vixen.

"Since we can find us, it's a chance, let's keep him first!" Red Ape said.

"But we have no place for him to live." Green Snake and White Snake said in unison, "We don't want to live with him!"

The female fox also shook her head: "I'm afraid I accidentally ate him."

"But he's human now!" said the black cat.

"So what about the human form? I'll eat it! Anyway, he's so cowardly that he won't dare to resist! Rabbit! It's just a herbivore. If you really want to eat him, are you afraid that he will struggle and escape? One bite on his neck, let him Just die quickly..." The more the female fox spoke, the less her articulation became clearer, her mouth was full of saliva when she thought of fresh rabbit meat.

The black cat looked at the red ape.

The older red ape scratched his chin, then looked up into the distance again, as if he didn't want to answer the question from the black cat's eyes.

"This..." In the end, because everyone's eyes were on the red ape, it had to reluctantly speak, and said, "I live in a small place, if I put another rabbit... besides, he is such a big man now. ..."

Even though it is the same apartment, everyone has the same number of floors and pings. Why does Red Ape think it is too small?Those two big snakes are not too small to live together, right?

But most of the animals are not very curious about other people's affairs (except for the black cat). Since the red ape said it was too small to take in the rabbit, there must be a reason, but they didn't want to ask.

"What about the top floor?" The black cat asked unwillingly, "You can build a wooden house or something, let this guy stay first?"

"But there is already a fish pond on the roof, and that carp lives there!" said the vixen.

"At least there is an open space next to the fish pond for this guy to nest for a few days?" said the black cat.

◇

That night, it rained suddenly.

Mixed with the rain, there is also a strange strong wind blowing from an unknown direction. It blows from the east and then from the west. The heavy rain is blown around in the air, even if you go out with an umbrella. It will be soaked immediately, and it looks so embarrassing.

The small wooden house built on the top floor looked even more desolate in this strong storm, as if a strong wind could blow off the roof at any time.

Rainwater was constantly leaking inside the cabin, and the ticking sound echoed the sound of the rain outside.

A golden carp head protruded from the surface of the not-so-small fish pond next to the wooden house, and was curiously looking at the precarious small wooden house and the lonely man in white inside the wooden house.

The tall man in white was squeezed into the small wooden house, looking very out of place.

But he didn't seem to complain much, and he wasn't very angry.

Although he has forgotten many things in the past, he seems to be used to staying in a small space.

And always stay for a long time.

This small dilapidated wooden house gave him a contradictory sense of security, as if he had returned to the days of living in an iron cage.

Of course, he couldn't remember how long he lived in the iron cage.

What he remembers most clearly is the day he was abandoned.

In the heavy rain outside the door, there was the sound of footsteps.

The hearing of the man in white was still sensitive, and he could hear the footsteps of some carnivore walking over the rain-filled concrete floor.

Instinctively, he jumped onto the temporary wooden bed, but the wooden bed was not very solid, and he collapsed with this jump. He fell into a pile of broken wood chips, and before he could get up, there was no such thing as a log cabin. The locked door was blown open by a gust of wind!

"Hey! Are you okay?" Shuxiang Mendi

A drenched black cat jumped into the room with a worried look on its face.

The black cat sighed when he saw the man who was sitting blankly among the pile of wood chips that was a bed just a moment ago.

Sure enough, this temporary patchwork of places can't live in people (rabbits) at all!

Even if this guy returns to the original shape of the fat white rabbit, it's windy and rainy in the middle of the night, so that such a weak herbivore is frightened and frozen here, I can't bear to let the black cat toss and turn at night to sleep well .

However, he was the only one in the whole apartment who cared so much about Fat White Rabbit. The other "residents" had already fallen asleep and were unconscious.

Although living in a human apartment is not in line with their nature, there are also some advantages. One of the biggest advantages is that the apartment building is very strong and is not afraid of the wind and rain. No matter how strong the wind and rain outside, as long as you hide inside Safe—except for this improvised log cabin on the top floor, which is now swaying in the wind and rain.

The man in white sitting in the pile of wood saw the black cat, his eyes immediately lit up. Although he knew that the cat was a dangerous carnivore, he was the only familiar face in this strange and dangerous place.

"You..." The black cat hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "Do you want to come down?"

"You want to drive me away?" The man in white shook his head hastily.

"No, it's raining so hard today, your house is leaking all the time, and your bed has been broken by you. Would you like to spend the night at my place first?"

"Can you?" The man in white stood up abruptly, his tall body made his head hit the wooden roof, and with a "bang", a hole was smashed into the roof.

Very good, this dilapidated log cabin is probably uninhabitable. In two days, we might as well just dismantle it and use it as wood for burning, and then build a stronger metal house again.
