Chapter 82 Black Cat
Chapter 82 Black Cat

"..."

There was no response from the other party.

"Hello?"

Bai Yanliang greeted again.

"..."

There was still no sound on the other end of the phone.

Bai Yanliang put down his phone and ended the call.

Strange person, strange phone call, who is calling?
Bai Yanliang glanced at the number and prepared to remember it, but... this time his expression changed a little.

Because this number turned out to be his own.

A technical prank?

Or...is he really calling me?

"Tick tock..."

A drop of water fell on Bai Yanliang's mobile phone screen.

He looked up at the dark night sky, and it was... raining.

Recently... too many strange things have happened. Bai Yanliang is not as relaxed as he looks. Although his emotions have hardly fluctuated, he still has the necessary pressure.

Who was the woman I saw before the past world was shattered?
Who called just now?

Who is the criminal that Li Mu mentioned who looks very similar to him...

What is that thing in that apartment that creates the illusion?
Where do the keys to research come from?

What is the relationship between Fengxiuxue and Yanren...

Bai Yanliang was silent for a moment and closed his eyes.

He didn't dodge or avoid the raindrops.

At this moment, a faint sound suddenly came from outside the yard.

"Meow--"

Bai Yanliang thought he had heard it wrong. How could there be a cat's meow amid the sound of the drizzling rain?

It was not until he heard another cat's meow that he was sure he was not hallucinating.

After thinking about it, Bai Yanliang left the yard and followed the sound.

"Meow--"

Its sound became clearer and clearer, which meant that I was getting closer and closer to it.

Until… I saw it next to a trash can in the alley.

A weak black cat.

Is it dying?
Bai Yanliang looked at it quietly. The rain was too heavy, the night was too late, and people were too anxious. No one would notice that there was a cat next to the trash can.

Moreover, the cat was in a very bad situation. Its body was covered with scars of varying sizes, and bright red blood was flowing all over the ground with the rain.

Hearing Bai Yanliang's footsteps, its ears moved slightly.

Bai Yanliang smiled, what an interesting little guy.

"Hey, don't you have nine lives?"

Bai Yanliang squatted down and said with interest.

In the early morning, in the rain, in the alley, there was a strange man talking to a black cat. Occasionally, people returning home at night passing by would leave in a hurry when they saw this.

But Bai Yanliang had no awareness of scaring others.

He looked at the black cat quietly, but the black cat didn't look at him. It just lay there quietly, making increasingly weak calls from time to time.

It's painful.

I don't know how so many wounds were caused.

Cats are creatures with extremely strong endurance. They would not make such a sound unless they were in pain to a certain extent.

Bai Yanliang thought about it seriously for a while, but couldn't come up with an answer.

It's still raining.

Wind and rain cause living things to lose body temperature quickly.

Bai Yanliang squatted there for five minutes, and the black cat also lay there for five minutes. Finally, it moved.

It seemed to have recovered some strength and tiredly propped up its broken body, but its left hind leg was not very flexible, as if it was broken, and it dragged on the ground without any strength.

Fortunately... it was able to stand firmly on three legs, and began to move forward step by step in the blood.

There were many scars on its body. Every time it moved, some of the wounds that had begun to scab over would be torn open again, and bright red blood would flow out.

The blood mixed with the rain formed a trickle and flowed to Bai Yanliang's feet. Bai Yanliang looked at it quietly, stretched out his hand, and touched the blood at his feet. It was cold, not warm at all.

What a stubborn cat.

He looked at it quietly. It took so much time to move it just a little bit. Even if he crawled out of this alley, where could he go?
The world outside...isn’t it another alley?

But for some reason, when Bai Yanliang saw the cat, he suddenly felt much better.

It was struggling to survive, just like him.

"Hey, stop tickling me."

Bai Yanliang said softly, then stretched out his slender hand and held it.

Why is it a cup? Because it is really small.

It fits perfectly in a pair of hands.

Its reaction was very violent. It suddenly jumped off Bai Yanliang's hand and its injured leg fell on the wet ground. It was painful just to look at it.

"I don't eat cats, you don't have to be so nervous."

Bai Yanliang explained, even though it didn't understand, Bai Yanliang still wanted to say that he was such a weird person.

"Meow--"

Only then did the cat look back at him for the first time.

Its pupils are black, as black as ink.

It is so completely black that it can perhaps only be seen on animals and babies.

If it weren't for the scars all over its body and the mess it made from the rain, it would be a really beautiful cat.

Bai Yanliang never says anything against his will. This cat is indeed very beautiful, especially its dark eyes, which add a lot of mystery to it.

"If you don't want to die, come home with me."

Bai Yanliang looked into its eyes and said seriously.

People passing by the alley walked hurriedly, feeling uneasy. What did they see?
A weird lunatic talking to a cat in the rain?
Bai Yanliang didn't mind the looks and he extended his hand towards the black cat again.

The strange thing was that this time it didn't struggle to escape. Instead, it lay quietly in his palm, looking at him with its round black eyes.

"Don't look at me. I always do good things. I'm a good person."

Bai Yanliang touched its head, which was the only place on its body without any wounds.

The cat's body was trembling slightly, but its eyes were gently closed.

Bai Yanliang held it and returned to the yard.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier. It looks like it won't stop tonight.

There is a medical kit at home, prepared by Gao Fei.

Bai Yanliang found the disinfectant and simply treated the black cat.

It hurts when medicine is poured on the wound, especially the cut.

"If it hurts, scream out. Weren't you screaming just now?"

Bai Yanliang looked at the black cat with some amusement. It endured the pain quietly. Its small body kept shaking. It was in pain, but this time it didn't cry at all.

What a stubborn cat.

As he continued to apply medicine to it, Bai Yanliang realized how serious its injuries were.

Especially the hind legs, you can already see the bones.

It needs stitching.

Fortunately, Bai Yanliang learned this craft when he was in a mental hospital.

Late at night, one person and one cat, life is quite harmonious.

By the time Bai Yanliang finished treating it, it had already fallen asleep.

Bai Yanliang smiled and looked at the little black cat quietly.

What is life?
He had thought about this problem a long time ago.

Those who own something tend to despise it, those who lose it have already lost everything, and the most painful person is the one who is about to lose it.

obviously.

Everyone in the fog is about to lose it.

Why save this cat?

Bai Yanliang thought about it seriously, maybe... it was because he felt pity for it when he saw its appearance.

Or maybe... I am just like it, making my last struggle.
