A soft meow came from behind.

Ji Tang was stunned, and quickly turned his head to look.

At his feet, a cat appeared at some point.

It was a very small cat.

It was about the size of a fist, and the cat's ears hadn't stood up yet, hanging limply on his head.

Its small claws, the size of fingernails, held Ji Tang's shoes tightly.

It seems that he doesn't want Ji Tang to go.

Then a soft and delicate voice sounded.

"Meow."

cat……?

Ji Tang was stunned.

He put down the cardboard box and quickly picked up the little kitten that was entangled with him.

As soon as the kitten touched his hand, it immediately got into his hand, feeling the warmth of the boy.

Ji Tang looked at the empty streets.

He obviously didn't see the cat just now.

Where did this cat... come from?

Until he looked at the cat's tail in the box again.

The half of the cat's tail in the box is white with light yellow patterns.

And the kitten in his hand that was entangled with him also had a white and yellow tail.

The kitten's figure looked extremely thin, translucent under the pale moonlight.

The cat... is dead, and in his hands is a ghost.

Ji Tang's heart trembled.

Seeing that Ji Tang hadn't moved for a long time, the kitten tilted its head in doubt.

Ji Tang didn't speak, but gently lowered her eyes and stretched out her fingers to rub the kitten's head.

The kitten was so small and light that it almost fell over with a finger.But it reacted quickly, meowed nervously, hugged Ji Tang's thumb, and didn't let it fall out of the palm.

It was as if the warmth in the boy's palm was a treasure that he couldn't ask for in his lifetime.Hide inside and not encounter any misery.

"Sorry, I accidentally poked you down." Ji Tang chuckled, and put the little kitten into the warm pocket.

The kitten moved in the pocket and meowed softly. It closed its eyes against Ji Tang's body temperature through the fabric.

Ji Tang hugged the cardboard box containing the cat's body, took it to the hillside and buried it.

After he got home, the first thing he did was to take out the kitten, put it in his hand and examine it carefully.

This kitten is white with light yellow spots.Under the warm yellow light, it was as soft as a small cloud, floating to Ji Tang's palm.

It raised its head and looked at Ji Tang. After a while, it narrowed its eyes and let out a sweet meow.

Ji Tang frowned.

He recalled what the cat's body looked like.

Very tragic.

— not a natural death, but man-made.

Ji Tang poked the cat's little paw, pulled the corner of his mouth, and showed a bitter smile: "Good boy."

"Meow." The kitten wagged its tail, not understanding Ji Tang's expression.

But this thought quickly disappeared, it lowered its head, rubbed against Ji Tang's finger, and meowed.

"hungry?"

Looking at its flat stomach, Ji Tang frowned.

But then he discovered an embarrassing fact.

He doesn't have anything suitable for cats in his house.

He can only go to the pet store to buy.

Ji Tang rubbed her head helplessly, and said softly, "Wait here for me."

He stood up and found a clean small cardboard box at home.

He put the old clothes in the cardboard box, then carefully put the kitten in, and said, "You sleep here for a while, and I'll buy you something to eat."

He remembered a 24-hour pet store nearby.

The kitten was huddled in the warm clothes, licking its fur gently, but hadn't reacted yet.

When it raised its head, the boy had already disappeared from its sight.

A sharp cat meow suddenly sounded from the cardboard box.

The kitten got out of the cardboard box like an electric shock, stood up trembling, and looked around for the figure of the boy.

Did not see.

It jumped on the ledge.

I saw Ji Tang walking outside.

It shook its tail, glanced at the ground, and jumped off the window sill.

Below is the cold concrete floor.

It is not the first time to jump from a high altitude.

I was thrown down before, and when I touched the ground, I would feel pain of being smashed to pieces.

But this time, it landed firmly on the ground.

It can't figure out why.

It just wanted to find the boy and retract into his warm palm.

It was really warm, a warmth it had never experienced before.

The kitten smelled Ji Tang in the air.

It raised its head in a daze, and followed Ji Tang's breath with its limbs that had just learned to walk, looking for the other party.

It's still so small that it can't move fast.

But it somehow feels that it is not tired.

But when the kitten walked to a brightly lit store, it stopped.

"Meow." It couldn't help but walked towards the store, with its little paws lying on the glass window.

A pair of light pink kitten paw prints popped out of the transparent glass window.

It looked at the scene in the glass window and couldn't help sniffing.

Those round cans inside gave off a very fragrant meaty smell.

It smelled exactly the same as it did many days ago.

The kitten can't count how many times he has stood here.

Every time, it can see many shiny kittens in the store, being hugged by their owners.When they came out, the owner was still holding those meat-scented cans in his hand, and the cats were snuggling in the warm arms of the owner.

Each time, it was a lone cat.

For the last time, its tail was cut off, half of its ears were missing, and its eyes were covered with blood. It dragged its crippled legs, and with the last bit of strength, it slowly came to the door of the store.

At that time, through its blood-colored vision, it vaguely saw a very beautiful blue-eyed cat being picked up by its owner and walking out of the store. The cat's mouth was still stained with the canned meat it had wanted for a long time.

That night, it stood in the icy snow in front of the pet shop, slowly losing its vitality.

It has been heard that when every cat loses a whisker, a wish can be granted.

But why all its whiskers were burnt off by cigarette butts, how could its only wish—to eat a can of cat food, not come true once?

The kitten slowly recovered from the memory.

But it didn't expect that after it died in the snow that night, it could still wake up.It's just that my body has become much more transparent, the wounds on my body don't hurt anymore, and those people can't find me.

So... it wants canned cat food, will it come too?

No way.

It has become like this.

The kitten shook its head, looked away from the products in the window, and wanted to continue looking for the boy.

But when it took a small step, it suddenly heard the boy's voice with a soft smile coming from the pet shop it had dreamed of.

"Pack more canned cat food for me, please."

"Well, yes. I adopted a very cute kitten."

"I'm going to make it the happiest cat in the world—"
