Strange Life of a Cat - Chapter 257

[Chapter 246]

Dad Jiao didn’t come back the night after he left. I heard that it seemed to be discussed by the leaders and the seniors. The red-haired rat has not been fully identified, but now it seems to be used by researchers in related fields. It’s like a baby, and Jiao Dad, the “first person who discovered the red-haired rat”, should have the right to speak. He was dragged there and couldn’t walk away, and he didn’t sleep well all night.

Although those people usually go to bed early and get up early to live a regular life, once they encounter something they are interested in, they get excited. It was common to stay up all night in the laboratory when they were young. Once, they made an exception.

So, if they don’t leave and don’t rest, Jiao Dad doesn’t even want to rest.

In the early morning, Zheng Tan followed the three Jiao family. Jiao’s mother bought breakfast for the two children and Zheng Tan, and while they were eating, a man in his twenties came in.

“Hello, Teacher Gu!” The man said with a smile, glanced at the room quickly, stopped on Zheng Tan for a while, and then moved away, as if looking for something.

“It’s Xiao Li, I already know, that’s in the bathroom.” Jiao Ma led the man to the bathroom.

Zheng Tan was nibbling on eggs, and when he saw the man walking to the bathroom while wearing gloves, he knew what his goal was.

It was early in the morning when everyone was eating, but that person came in to move shit. How impatient!

Scientists are indeed a strange species.

The man named Xiao Li put on his gloves and walked out with the box. He saw Jiao Yuan and Xiao Youzi looking at him, looking a little embarrassed. He also knew that he was here at the wrong time, but there was nothing he could do.

The above has spoken, and he can only execute it.

At the beginning, I also said that I would devote myself to science, so what is it to lose face?

“Mom, let’s take the black charcoal to the vet after breakfast. I heard that there are many parasites in the wild. If you eat something bad…” Jiao Yuan said.

However, Jiao Yuan was interrupted by Jiao’s mother before she could finish her words: “Eat your meal, you don’t need to worry about this. After eating, go do your summer homework.” After a while, Jiao’s mother added.

“Black charcoal can’t get out. We’ll have to wait until your dad comes back.”

Jiao’s mother wanted to take Zheng Tan out to see the veterinarian, but Jiao’s father had already told her that several people over there were trying to make black carbon, and they couldn’t take him out.

Look at the cat eating eggs on the chair.

Mother Jiao sighed inwardly.

Having a cat is more worrying than having children!

How can it be so troublesome?

!

She was not at all interested in any reddish species or new genetic discoveries.

Rather, I wish the cat would be calmer, but unfortunately… alas!

It was almost noon when Dad Jiao finally came back.

Along with Dad Jiao were several people in their 40s and 50s and two old men. Zheng Tan knew a few of them. The leader was the dean of the Chuhua University Academy of Sciences.

In the past, this person didn’t have any reaction when he saw Zheng Tan around the Academy of Biotechnology. He didn’t dislike it, nor was he friendly. He didn’t seem to like cats

. Staring at Zheng Tan, he nodded and said, “What a cat, this is a good cat!”

Zheng Tan: “…” He couldn’t be overjoyed at this compliment, it would be fine if he replaced “cat” with “human”.

It is also better to be issued a good person card than to be issued a good cat card.

I have to say, Dad Jiao is very accurate.

These people came here to let Dad Jiao take Zheng Tan out to see if he could find the red-haired mouse’s territory through Zheng Tan, so as to find more red-haired mice, one is not enough.

Some people also wanted to rope Zheng Tan or put him in a cage and take him out, but Jiao Dad refused.

Zheng Tan followed them out, and many of the people accompanying them were experts in a certain research direction in the circle, but Zheng Tan didn’t have the slightest sense of honor, and he didn’t have time to see other people. He was thinking about how to pretend later. Silly, how can it be more natural and more in line with a normal cat to act silly.

Walking in a group of people can also cause a lot of heads. Some young teachers in the base or researchers working here rarely see one of them on weekdays. As a result, there are a bunch of them now, and they call their names when they stand there. However, it was because of nervousness that he stumbled when speaking.

But now these big cows are not in the mood to talk to these teachers and researchers, they are all staring at the cat in front.

At the end of the road, Zheng Tan stopped, and there was no way to go any further, it was all woods and grass.

“Hey, why didn’t you leave?”

“Mr. Jiao, why did your cat stop?”

A few impatiently said.

So, Dad Jiao started working with Zheng Tan in front of everyone, and asked him to lead the way.

Zheng Tan yawned, thinking about how Ah Huang dealt with when he made a mistake in the compound at that time, and then according to the way Ah Huang remembered, he tilted his head, leaned his body, fell to the ground, and then began to sit on the ground as if nothing had happened. roll around.

Dad Jiao: “…”

Everyone: “…”

Dad Jiao was lamenting that Zheng Tan was not weak at playing stupid, and he must have done a lot of work on weekdays.

Others felt a sense of disappointment. Although they did not hold much expectations, there was hope after all. Seeing this now, I feel that hope is even more slim.

They didn’t know that this person and cat were actually acting in front of them. Of course, no one would believe it.

Zheng Tan now understands that he is a cat, and that a cat can act as a scoundrel and act foolishly, and no one will doubt it.

This was the first time he was rolling in front of everyone’s eyes. Anyway, he was dark and thick-skinned, and he was not afraid of being laughed at. If he never did it before, rolling now is better than being targeted in the future.

Someone over there couldn’t help it, and asked Dad Jiao to continue to give Zheng Tan an “order” to find a mouse. Even if he couldn’t find it now, it would be fine to give him a direction. They just wanted to know whether the cat remembered or not. Where did you catch that red-haired rat?

Since these people want to follow, let’s follow, Zheng Tan decided to fulfill them.

After rolling, he got up and shook his hair, and continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened. Along the way, he played with birds and insects. While he was still outside, he could play for a while, and he had to be grounded when he went back.

He was fine, but he was suffering from the people behind him. After walking around, these people were all out of breath. A few older ones had already been supported by others. They also knew that their physical strength was definitely not good, but they just wanted to see with their own eyes. In which direction, take a few more steps.

If I can’t hold it any longer, let my subordinates follow me. Even if I can’t find it this time, people who have a field test will be able to let people look in that direction. Otherwise, the area of the mountain and forest area is so large that it consumes so much human, material and financial resources every year. There are not many new discoveries. What can you find like a headless fly, and maybe you will lose your life in it.

Jiao Dad was still persuading them to stop expecting Zheng Tan and go back, but these people were more stubborn than the other.

Until…

“This road seems to have been taken when I brought students out to collect specimens.” Jiao Dad said.

He just didn’t know where Zheng Tan was going to lead the way.

Now I finally understand.

This cat just wants to toss this group of people, and if you walk a little further, you can find it, and you have to go back.

“…Really!” Someone inside knew more about the neighborhood, and they felt something was wrong just now.

Just silent.

Some people are still holding on to luck.

When Zheng Tan brought them to a place near the road again.

They finally got discouraged.

Also, can you expect a cat to do what you want?

If cats were so powerful, they would have been used for training by people in certain industries.

Why do you have to train dogs?

Maybe this cat really came across blindly.

“This is life!” An old man who was sitting on a rock and gasping for breath slapped his legs and sighed, but he didn’t have much regret or unwillingness. Having lived such a long life, he has seen a lot of things. The albino bears, albino moles, etc., which caused a sensation, also followed the international organization’s field test team to the deep mountains to investigate, and brought back many “living fossil” specimens, and now I can see a suspected red mouse. That’s enough.

There are many people who go in for money and never come out. Many times, people who discover some new species or some endangered animals are only discovered by accident.

Just like the old man sighed just now, this is life.

A group of people were so tired that they were exhausted even walking up the road to the base, so they finally called for a car to come and pick them up.

After Papa Jiao went back, he talked to the leading people, and then took Zheng Tan out to see the veterinarian. After disappearing for a few days, he should be relieved to check it.

The place to see the veterinarian is not far from the infirmary. Zheng Tan also saw the young man who helped catch the red-haired mouse. I heard that yesterday was very dangerous, but luckily the treatment was over in time. Chat with a girl.

The young man was talking to a few girls in the infirmary about catching mice at that time, which shocked several female students. Now he also knows that the mouse caught yesterday was a rare thing, and he would show it off to everyone. Or he caught it, the lunch box is also his, what, don’t believe it?

If you don’t believe me, look at my wound!

Can a mouse bite swell up like this?

!

Sure enough, the scar was healed and the pain was forgotten, Zheng Tan despised it.

After the examination, the veterinarian determined that Zheng Tan was in good health, and prescribed some deworming medicine for Zheng Tan to eat.

After coming out of the veterinarian, Zheng Tan saw that it was closer to the place where he climbed the wall last time. After thinking about it, he went over there. He still remembers the matter about Amber, and it would be a pity to lose it.

Dad Jiao didn’t say much, and followed him out.

There is a bush over there. Yesterday, Zheng Tan crossed over there in order to approach the road.

Zheng Tan went through the bushes to search along the route he walked yesterday, and suddenly heard the swish movement in the bushes. He looked over there and found that there was a cat in the bushes, a house cat. .

At this moment, the domestic cat was playing with its claws bent, Zheng Tan took a closer look, wasn’t it the amber he lost?

!

Zheng Tan rushed over and gave the cat two slaps. The cat hunched over and barked twice, but felt that it was not strong enough to fight, and ran away quickly when Zheng Tan was about to slap the third.

Zheng Tan looked at the amber carefully. Fortunately, it was wrapped in vines, otherwise it would definitely be caught and bitten off a lot of scratches.

Pulling the amber wrapped in vines out, Zheng Tan decided to give it to Dad Jiao first, because he couldn’t get it either.

“Mr. Jiao, what is your cat doing?” a security guard asked.

Dad Jiao shook hands with what Zheng Tan had pulled out from an angle that others were not paying attention to, then stood up and said to the guard over there: “It just got into a fight, this guy likes to bully other cats.” The

guard obviously also watched When it came to the cat that escaped from the bushes just now, Jiao’s dad didn’t doubt what he said. Someone asked him to pay attention to the teacher surnamed Jiao and the black cat early this morning, but he didn’t notice anything unusual. Isn’t the place where the cat is, and those people are staring so closely?

Papa Jiao seemed to change the tote bag at will, and put the amber wrapped around the vines into the insect repellent bag.

Zheng Tan sighed in his heart: A coke fox!
