cat and rabbit cage

Almost with the grief and determination of a strong man breaking his wrist, Miao Miao left the top floor with the blessing (?) of Liyu Xiaojin, and silently returned to the store on the first floor.

The "black shop" that used its superb acting skills to swindle in the human world.

In the eyes of those humans, his profession is "animal psychic", who can communicate with the souls of dead animals and convey the thoughts of their owners.

Although in human legends, black cats are extremely yin things, able to swim between the yin and yang worlds, and transmit messages between strangers and wandering spirits, but--that's just human imagination.

Even if he has the opportunity to become an adult, just like other animals living in this apartment, the black cat cannot see the animal souls, let alone communicate with those souls. The ability he has is just to use the ability to look at humans See through the hearts of human beings at a moment, know what they want to see and hear, and then figure it out to satisfy human beings.

He's lying, yes, but from another perspective, wouldn't it be a good thing for him to comfort those humans who are sad or disturbed by the loss of their pets?

Anyway, when life dies, it dies, so what care can there be?

If you worry too much and cannot let go, you will not be able to rest in peace.

The young man walked downstairs silently, and when he came to the first floor, he saw the iron door in front of the shop pulled down and the door was locked.

But what surprised him was not that those animals actually locked up his place, but why the shameless white rabbit just sat at the door of the store with a cigarette in its mouth! ?

"Hey! What are you smoking!"

Just looking at it makes me angry.It's obviously an animal, why smoke like a human?And the smoke stinks!

"Not long after I sat here, a man passed by and asked me if I want to smoke?" Miao Dabai looked at the cigarette in his hand, and said, "I don't know what happened, I just smoked it as soon as I took it."

He also knew that theoretically he should not smoke, but he instinctively took the cigarette, waited for the man to light it for him, put it in his mouth and took a deep breath, and then closed his eyes to enjoy the nicotine smell.

good human behavior.

"If you don't like it, I won't smoke." Miao Dabai threw the cigarette on the ground and stamped it out with his foot.

The boy didn't wonder why this guy smoked for a while, and he smoked so naturally, he didn't look like a rabbit at all.

"What are you doing here? お稥" he asked bluntly, still keeping a distance of about three feet from the man.

"I was kicked out." The man shrugged, as if he was used to it.

"You were kicked out?"

"Yes! They said that I have a strange infectious disease. Oh, yes, this is yours." Miao Dabai took out a black suitcase from behind and said, "The two snakes said this is your luggage , I’ve already packed it for you.”

Miao Miao almost wanted to cry but had no tears.The speed of these animals is too fast, right?

Usually they are lazy and live their own lives separately. At this time, they are particularly diligent and know how to divide and cooperate.

At this moment, Miao Dabai suddenly realized, and asked, "You were kicked out too?"

"You're really smart! Did you just know now?" Miao Miao said bitterly.

"Why were you kicked out too? Don't you live well here?"

"Do you still dare to say? It's not all because of you! I also contracted the strange infectious disease on your body! I, I can't turn back into a cat! I..." The boy bit his lower lip, trying not to let the tears of grief fall , "I don't want to be a human! I want to go back to my black cat! It's all because of you! You, you have to help me get back to normal!"

The man was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Miao Dabai! Do you know how serious the problem is!" the boy yelled at the man.

"Is it serious?" The man scratched his head.

"Of course it's serious!"

"Now what?"

"I was going to ask you what to do!" Miao Miao was about to explode in anger!

God!This man's IQ is simply lower than his own!

Although in fact, the brain volume of rabbits is indeed smaller than that of cats...

Miao Dabai showed a puzzled and innocent expression, silently looking at the boy in black clothes and shorts, as if he had no idea what disaster he had caused.

"Stop pretending to be innocent!" The boy glared at him again.

"Then we've all been kicked out now, what should we do?"

Hearing this, Miao Miao became dejected, and her black hair, which was originally angry, also softened, sticking to her head obediently.

"I don't know either." Like a deflated ball, Miao Miao said weakly.

In any case, they could not stay in this place any longer.

But without this apartment, could they live anywhere else?

Especially where it's full of humans.

Miao Miao was really... very uncertain, and a little scared (although he refused to admit it).

As soon as his mood relaxed, the boy once again found that his whole body was sore and exhausted, and he couldn't even stand firmly.He gave Miao Dabai another vicious look, then he searched for a place at least two meters away from the man, and sat down to rest temporarily.

But not long after resting, suddenly a spray of disinfectant sprayed directly at him. He, who has always hated water, jumped up in fright, and instinctively opened his teeth and claws to launch an attack, but another spray of disinfectant came and sprayed He was all over his face and almost ate it.

"It stinks! What is this? Stop spraying!"

The human with a disinfectant bucket and a disinfectant mask didn't seem to hear what he said, and still sprayed around with a disinfectant gun.

The teenager whose eyes were sprayed with disinfectant and burst into tears had no choice but to retreat to Miao Dabai's side, because that was the only area where the disinfectant hadn't been sprayed.

Damn it, it's obvious that this fat white rabbit is the "carrier", why is he the unlucky one?

"Miao Miao, are you okay?"

"They actually asked humans to disinfect, it's too much! And why only spray me? You should be sprayed! You are the biggest pathogen! As long as you are with you, you will get sick!"

"Miao Miao, you have been crying."

He didn't care about the young man's clamor and provocation, Miao Dabai just looked at Miao Miao with red eyes and tears constantly.

"Because my eyes were sprayed with disinfectant!"

"Does it hurt?"

"Nonsense, will you cry like this if it doesn't hurt?"

Damn it, it hurts more and more, the disinfectant sprayed into the eyes is very irritating, if it wasn't because he is a cat spirit, and his ability to endure pain and recover better than ordinary animals, I am afraid that his eyes would have been blind long ago.

"Miao Miao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

The man seemed impatient, and pulled the boy over, and wiped away the tears on that delicate face with rough hands and feet. Seeing that the tears couldn't be stopped, he even stuck out his tongue and licked the area around the boy's eyes and cheeks, thinking Lick that nasty sanitizer off.

"You... what are you doing?"

Miao Miao only felt a sudden heat in her ears.

The feeling of the man's tongue licking his face was warm and soft, gently scratching the delicate skin of his cheeks, reminding him involuntarily of the same tongue that kept licking his place last night...

Huh, why did my body heat up, and my lower body began to feel restless and agitated.

"No, don't lick." Miao Miao's voice suddenly softened.

"Does the eye still hurt?" The man wiped the tears off his face again.

Miao Miao blinked vigorously, although the eyes were still stinging, but the pain was not as painful as before.

I don't know if it was because of being sprayed with disinfectant, but Miao Miao actually thought that the man's worried face, although there was a scar on his cheek, was quite pleasing to the eye.

"How did you get the scar on your face?" the boy couldn't help asking.

The man was stunned for a moment, stepped back a little, and then touched the scar on his cheek with his hand.

"This is……"

Injured in the fire.

The boy's question seemed to be a key to unlock past memories, and some vivid memory fragments suddenly emerged from behind that door.

Fire.

Big fire in the forest.

A fat white rabbit ran wildly in the fire.

Some of the hair on the white rabbit's body has been burnt black.

Then he fell, a sharp pain in his cheek, and passed out...

The white rabbit ran over... Those ruby ​​eyes were beside her...

The intertwined memory fragments began to be confused again, and even the man himself could not arrange the time sequence clearly.

Seeing him so distressed, Miao Miao who was beside him felt a little sorry.

The boy hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stood on tiptoe, raised his head and stretched out his small tongue to lick the conspicuous scar on the man's face a few mouthfuls.

It was a gesture of goodwill.

Because the man licked the disinfectant from his eyes before.

The man froze again.

He lowered his head, looking at those jet-black pupils with a slight amber color, his nose suddenly felt sour.

Then big teardrops fell from his eyes one by one.

"Miao Dabai? What's wrong with you? Did I hurt you from licking?" Seeing this, Miao Miao quickly stuck out her tongue and licked her own finger. It was a bit prickly, but it didn't hurt that much, right?

Or was this guy spoiled and spoiled before, so his ability to tolerate pain is very poor?

But since Miao Dabai is so afraid of pain, he just licked the disinfectant on his face with his tongue just now... That kind of horrible chemical agent that humans only use, just smelling the pungent smell will make you feel sick, let alone licking it. into the stomach?No wonder I don't have a stomachache.

"Dabai, did I hurt you? Is it your face?" Miao Miao asked anxiously.

Miao Dabai sniffed and shook his head.

"Then what's wrong with you? Where's the pain?"

The man sniffed again, raised his head and thought for a while, then pointed to his chest.

"I'm in so much pain here."

"Your body hurts?" Miao Miao opened her eyes wide.

"Yeah. My face doesn't hurt, but after being licked by you just now, I suddenly felt sore and sore inside my chest, and then tears flowed out uncontrollably."

They don't even know that feeling is called "heartache".

For Miao Miao, the pain he has experienced so far is only from the body, and he has never experienced that kind of strong emotional or spiritual pain.Even on the "Day of Destruction" when he lost his homeland, he was just at a loss for the future, and he didn't feel very deeply hurt.

But Miao Dabai, whose life experience is still very mysterious, seems to have experienced what is called "heartache".

Miao Miao, who didn't know it, became even more nervous. Could it be that Miao Dabai was born with a physical defect?

"Then I won't lick your face anymore," he said.

"No, it's not like that. You lick my face, I like it very much." The man quickly took his hand and said sincerely: "It's just... just I don't know why I burst into tears all of a sudden?"

"Or are you allergic to my hair?"

I heard that many animals are allergic to the hair of other animals!

"Probably not. Otherwise, I would have cried until I was dehydrated last night."

Also.

Thinking of what happened last night, the boy's face turned red again.

Seeing the man's big hand holding her again, it seemed that even his hand became hot.

The young man tried slightly to withdraw his hand, but the other party refused to let go, so he let it go.

It's so strange, I hated this guy so much a moment ago, but why did most of that resentment disappear after he licked his eyes?

In this way, the intense physical intercourse last night was not as good as the intimate act of licking each other just now.

The humans spraying the disinfectant slowly moved towards the place where the two were standing. Seeing this, Miao Dabai quickly picked up Miao Miao's black suitcase and said, "Let's get out of here first!"

The boy also lost his mind, so he nodded.

When the man took his hand, he opened his eyes curiously, looking at the joined palms of the two.

No one ever held his hand.Of course, when it is still a black cat, it is impossible for someone (or cat) to do this kind of behavior to him (it).

But the feeling of Miao Dabai holding his hand was so natural and intimate, as if it was only right and proper.

There were so many questions in his head that he wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to say them all at once.

But he already vaguely felt that although this guy was a white rabbit, he was so similar to human beings in many aspects of behavior—or he looked like a human being at all!

Could it be that the White Rabbit has already cultivated to become a spirit and lived in the human world for a long time?

But... But in many ways, he behaved very "beastly"?

What exactly is going on?

Miao Miao looked at this guy who was full of secrets suspiciously, thinking that if she just followed him without thinking, would she have a chance to return to this apartment in the future?

◇

This is a hospital located in a large city densely populated by humans. A young nurse in white took advantage of her lunch break to sneak into the ward area on the fifteenth floor again.

It is the intensive care unit area for chronic diseases, and it is also a very quiet place, because most of the people living in the wards in this area are always in a coma state, and few people come to visit the patients.

These patients have been sick and lethargic for so long that they are unresponsive even when family members come to visit.

There are no filial sons in front of the sick bed for a long time. In fact, it is not that the children are not filial, but that everyone has their own life to live. Who would like to waste time on the patient who has no hope of recovery, even if it was once to support his own life? close relatives.

The young nurse is not a family member of any of the patients, nor is she responsible for taking care of the patients on this floor, but she still comes here every day, but she is not visiting a patient, but an animal.

a white rabbit.

It was a very strange white rabbit, which was admitted to the hospital with an old woman.

The old woman was very old, with silver-white hair all over her head, and her body was very weak. Almost all the organs in her body had come to an end. She was sent to the hospital, not so much for treatment, as for quietly waiting for death.

Even so, the old woman was one of the few patients in the ward area on the fifteenth floor who could stay awake for a long time.

Of course, the hospital does not allow animals to come in, so when the little nurse helped the senior sister on duty and saw the white rabbit for the first time, she was quite shocked.

At first she thought it was just a rag doll, because the white rabbit lay motionless beside the old woman.

"This doll is so cute!" said the little nurse while taking the old woman's blood pressure.

The old woman had a smile on her face, as if she was happy to hear someone compliment the doll.

Seeing that the white rabbit was cute, the young nurse reached out and stroked the white rabbit's hair without much thought. As soon as she put her hand on it, she felt something was wrong—why does this doll have a warm body?And the hair is so realistic!It's like real rabbit fur!

Taking a closer look, the little nurse found that the body of the doll rabbit was undulating slightly.

Only then did she realize that it was a real rabbit!

The little nurse's mouth was wide open, with an unbelievable expression on her face. She pointed to the white rabbit, looked at the old woman, then at the white rabbit, and then said in embarrassment: "Old woman, animals are not allowed in the hospital." Come in, if any bad germs or infectious diseases are brought in, it will be bad."

The old woman smiled again and said, "It's been here for a long time, and nothing happened."

"But……"

"As long as you treat it like a rag doll, it's fine."

"But won't it be noisy, won't it? It doesn't need to eat and drink? What about going to the toilet?"

God, dealing with small animals going to the toilet is the most troublesome thing!

And the hospital is such a clean place, it's really...

"It doesn't make noise, and it doesn't make noise. It doesn't need to eat." The old woman said softly.

"How is this possible?" The little nurse widened her eyes.

Is this actually a robotic rabbit?

Or was the body temperature of the rabbit just now an illusion?

"It's asleep."

"But won't it wake up?"

The old woman shook her head.

The little nurse didn't believe it, she squatted down, put her face on the side of the bed, and carefully looked at the sleeping white rabbit with its eyes closed.

If you look carefully, there is still a sparse hair on the white rabbit's face, which looks like...a scar.

"Grandma, what's going on here?" The little nurse was even more confused.

The old woman raised her head and looked out the window, but placed her wrinkled hands on the white rabbit's head, stroking it gently.

"If I tell you, can you please not drive it out? I want to have it with me in the last days. Even if it has been sleeping and unwilling to wake up."

The little nurse looked at the old woman with round eyes and nodded.
