Chapter 9 The Daily Life of Cats
Dingdong ~ Welcome!
The boss lady who was busy in the kitchen had no time to greet customers in the store, so she simply installed a welcome doorbell at the door. When she heard a sound, she shouted without looking back: "Look for a place to sit by yourself, there is a price list on the wall."
When he found that no one responded, he then made a bun and stuck his head out strangely. His eyes smiled as he saw Zhang Ze: "Oh, Huaer, you are here again."
Listening to the name she gave herself casually, Zhang Ze was really glad that she was not a white cat, otherwise Xiaobai's title would definitely not be able to escape.
Ignoring the strange gaze of the customers in the store, walking over with a cat stroll, Zhang Ze easily jumped onto the small table used to store takeout at the kitchen door, and placed the notes and change in his mouth on the table.
The boss's wife looked at the notes and agreed, "Okay, a tray of pork stuffing." Then she began to pack it neatly.
When he poked his head out again, he took a bag of soy milk in his hand and smiled at Zhang Ze, "This is for you to drink."
As he said that, he reached out to touch his head, Zhang Ze hurriedly turned his head to the side and avoided it. A big man was touched by someone's head, but he was not used to it. Besides, she was still making buns, and the food was hygienic.
The boss's wife realized that she was covered in flour and laughed, but she didn't reach out. She packed the change, buns, soy milk, and the notes brought by Zhang Ze, and tied them in a bag and placed them in front of him.
Zhang Ze decided to settle in this community called Shanshui Home for the time being. In the past two days, he found two vacant houses. One of them had lived in someone, and the house was full of things. He also found paper and pen there to solve the problem of his communication with humans.
He pretended to come out to buy things as the owner, wrote notes in advance, and prepared change so that he could shop even without saying a word.
The shop owners started to see a cat running errands for their owners, and they couldn't believe it. However, after getting familiar with it, they became commonplace. They were very friendly to Zhang Ze while they were new.
Sometimes the identity of human beings will bring you some responsibility, but it will also bring respect. For example, if the owner's pets and stray cats and dogs receive different treatments, so Zhang Ze successfully looked at the free shopping with this fictional owner.
Cats have a very small appetite. A portion of Hangzhou Xiaolongbao and fried rice can basically meet the needs of a day. Zhang Ze calculated that he had 275 yuan, a smalllongbao cost seven yuan per cage, and a portion of fried rice. If it was just a basic requirement, he should have survived for more than a month with these.
One month has enough demon power to awaken... right? Well, Zhang Ze cannot be sure, mainly because he really cannot judge that it is completely consistent with demon power.
Therefore, I can only think about it better and take advantage of this period to adjust my mentality and get used to being a cat.
Holding the small bun in his mouth, he went straight to a small park nearby and climbed up a large ginkgo tree. The branches of the ginkgo tree are generally thicker, making it feel safer when lying down, and the leaves will not block the view, making it very easy to observe.
He lay on it and finished his breakfast, one tray of eight, he ate three brunch and two for dinner, just right.
After eating, he did not move immediately, but lay on the branch and closed his eyes.
This is not about closing his eyes and resting, but about testing his hearing. After becoming a cat, Zhang Ze found that his five senses had been greatly improved compared to those when he was a human.
As a cat, he also has a sense of danger, which is similar to the sixth sense of human beings. Zhang Ze analyzed that this sixth sense actually comes from the information collected by the developed five senses and gathers it into the brain and then feedbacks instructions.
For example: At the entrance of the Riverbank Park that day, before the little man kicked him, he was already alert and was able to avoid it successfully. This reaction may be because he heard the sound of their approaching footsteps, which aroused the alertness of the brain according to where the footsteps were staying.
Although he did not realize what the footsteps meant, his brain detected the danger after subconscious processing, so it became a warning.
This skill is very useful for Zhang Ze who has become a cat. So after testing the speed of running and jumping in the past two days, the most time is to exercise his five senses, especially his hearing and vision, because as a human being, he is more accustomed to relying on these two senses.
Turn your ears to capture the subtle sounds in the woods, the friction of the wind blowing leaves, the footsteps of people practicing in the morning in the distance, the tire noise of cars passing by on the road,
These sounds formed a special picture in his mind, a picture composed of sound lines. Through this picture, he could "see" the birds flying with wings in the distance, "see" the speakers dragged by the square dance aunt, and "see" the man running from the road under my feet.
He is about 1.8 meters tall and weighs a lot, but his muscles account for a large proportion. This can be heard from the controllable sound of his feet when he runs. His breathing is very even, and he has very running experience.
Zhang Ze listened carefully and the man ran to his neighborhood.
Why did you stop?
The man walked down the road carefully and came to Zhang Ze. Maybe he thought he was hiding well, but in Zhang Ze's ears, he could hear clearly how he took every step, whether he stepped on leaves or small branches under his feet.
He suddenly opened his eyes and Zhang Ze immediately saw a middle-aged man staring at him with a cautious look on his face while walking towards him.
As Zhang Ze predicted, the man was about 1.8 meters tall, strong, wearing a quick-drying suit, a national character with a black face, and a little hidden sharp eyes. Mo Ming made people feel as if they were seen through.
When he saw Zhang Ze open his eyes, he immediately stopped, feeling embarrassed that he was suddenly discovered, and shook his head and said, "I've been discovered."
Zhang Ze was squatting on a tree branch two or three meters high at this time, so the arrival of the national face was not very threatening to him, and the temperament exuded by the national face made Zhang Ze feel that there was no sense of threat.
So Zhang Ze did not take action immediately, but just stared at him and watched his next move.
The national face stood there, carefully observing Zhang Ze's location. After a while, he pointed to the plastic bag containing the buns beside him and asked, "Where did the buns come from?" It was obviously a question, but people heard a hint of the meaning of interrogation.
Where did it come from? Pay attention to me.
Zhang Ze stared at the national face with his eyes curled up and said to himself: This person would not expect a cat to open his mouth to tell you whether he bought it or stole it, right?
His non-rejection gave the Chinese character a little confidence, and he carefully took two steps under the tree.
Zhang Ze rolled his eyes in his heart and said to himself: You should run your steps. It's really idle. Chat with a kitten early in the morning, don't you have to go to work?
In order to prevent him from becoming more and more arrogant, Zhang Ze immediately switched to alert. He bent his back, fur exploded, and his ears were carried over. If he made some more sound at this time, it might be better, but Zhang Ze was not as good as a cat. To be honest, he was not used to imitating a cat's cry.
However, after this, the Chinese-shaped face finally realized that he was not welcome, so he quickly stopped and reached out to stop Zhang Ze from taking further action.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I just see you look pretty. Do you think it's a pet that has been lost in the house?" He started to take out his pockets as he said, and continued to say to Zhang Ze: "I'll take a photo for you and send it to the owner group to help you find the owner?"
This person is really all kinds of things. Some people are too lazy to scream when they see cats on the bus, and some are also enthusiastic about running and wanting to help others find cats.
Zhang Ze just wants to live a low-key life now. If he photographed it and posted it to his community owner group, it is difficult to guarantee that he would not be paid attention to his actions nearby in the future. Therefore, before he could take out his phone, he made a quick decision, jumped off the tree with a bun in his mouth, and hid in a place where he could not see it.
"Hey! This cat ran fast enough." The man had just taken out his cell phone at this time and found that Zhang Ze was missing. He felt a little regretful. He turned around and returned to the track and continued to run in the morning.
Zhang Ze squatted behind the tree and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he should be more cautious in the future. Although it saved time when he came to the training ground with a bun in his mouth, he was inevitably a little surprised when he was seen. It seemed that it would be safer to go home and finish eating the food in the future.
He kept listening to the man's running farther and farther away, and then he returned to the tree again. This time he chose a relatively dense poplar tree, with his body basically covering his canopy.
Close your eyes and continue to develop your auditory potential in harmony with man and nature. This time, Zhang Ze began to try to distinguish more subtle sounds and try to ignore those more obvious background sounds.
The sound of a broken branch falling to the ground. The sound of a squirrel running on the branches.
After feeling it carefully for a morning, Zhang Ze opened his eyes and moved his legs and feet. Now he was sure that the cat's ears were very sharp. As long as he focused his energy, the hearing expansion distance was 200 meters in this empty wilderness.
Moreover, Cat Ear has a relatively magical function, which is that it can distinguish a specific tone among many sounds and focus on that sound.
Simply put, one hundred people are chatting, but you can distinguish your girlfriend's voice at once and hear clearly what your girlfriend says in a noisy environment.
In addition, the sounds heard by cats' ears are more and more complicated than those heard by humans. Zhang Ze guessed that this may be because humans and animals hear different frequencies, which leads to him not knowing what it is when he hears many sounds.
Next, he wanted to try how much his hearing would be affected by the wall. This was obviously not suitable in the park, so he planned to go back to the community in the afternoon to listen to the corner of the wall.
