Chapter 2205 Where Is the Sorrow?

October 7, 2049 AD

Real time PM18:25

City B, Dexin District, Mo Tan's apartment

"Well, the first game is between Beautiful Girl and Good Luck, the second game is between Yuhuo and Red Constellation Team 2, and then it's between Card Man and Clown..."

Mo Tan sat at the table in the living room and ate noodles, glancing at the notepad on his phone, frowning slightly and said, "So should I play Hei Fan's account in the first two games, or just play on Tan Mo's account and wait until I finish playing Card Man."

He tilted his head and thought about it, and decided to eat noodles first, so he lowered his head and ate a mouthful of noodles.

"By the way, now that I have money, shouldn't I also stock up on some normal ingredients?"

Looking at the noodles in the bowl that were colorful, fragrant and delicious but basically had no nutrition, Mo Tan fell into deep thought. On the one hand, he hoped to improve his quality of life, and on the other hand, he was worried about the businessmen in the market.

In simple terms, I am more afraid of my bargaining skills... if the rhetoric that is tantamount to logical rape and mental brainwashing can be called "bargaining".

Yes, as you guessed, at this moment, Mo Tan is in a state of "lawful good" personality determined by the system of the Lord of Innocence, and is now worried about countless things.

For example, whether it would be against the will of heaven and earth if I go to buy vegetables.

For example, Ji Xiaoge has been sending emails to the email address I left for her before.

For example, many players in the southwest continent revealed disturbing news in the forum.

For example, the immune system that I have built up against a certain winged beautiful girl in the past year is gradually collapsing.

For example, because the team of my three characters has entered the top 16, time management has become increasingly difficult.

For example...

Boom boom——!

Accompanied by a low muffled sound, raindrops have appeared on the window.

"Alas."

Mo Tan thought about it, and finally stood up quickly, put on a coat at random, and went out with an umbrella.

Although Mo Tan failed to take them home to raise them due to the resistance of the four little ones, he had already taken on the role of a cat owner because he had always taken care of ‘Xiao Hei’, ‘Xiao Tan’, ‘Xiao Mo’ and ‘Xia Yuhe’. So in this case, although there was a low house in the animal corner of the community to shelter from the rain, considering that the rain might last for a long time (the weather forecast said), and there was even a possibility that the animal corner would be flooded, he still planned to take a look at the little guys, and it would be best to take them home to stay until at least the heavy rain was over.

"The cat litter box I bought before has never been used once."

While muttering with a little resentment, Mo Tan quickened his pace in the thunder.

He had gone out to look for cats twice today. The first time was in the morning. Mo Tan squatted in front of the animal corner and chatted with Yu Chen for more than two hours, but he didn't squat to see those little ghosts. The second time was after lunch. Although he successfully caused the old men and women dancing in the basketball court of the community to fight among themselves, the excitement he created did not attract the four little guys as he wished, but attracted people from the neighborhood committee and the street.

However, this time, since the rain has started, Mo Tan thinks that those guys who immediately become restless after growing up a little bit and run around the community and the streets should almost know the animal corner, so he is still quite confident.

And the facts also proved the correctness of Mo Tan's speculation. When Mo Tan arrived at the animal corner with an umbrella, he really noticed that the four little guys had returned to the low house where they usually stayed. Not only that, there was even a pigeon squatting next to them.

A very beautiful pigeon.

"Hey!"

Ji Xiaoge, who was squatting in front of four kittens with an umbrella, turned to Mo Tan and smiled, saying happily: "I was just wondering if you would come. Don't bother, I just fed them... Eh? You didn't take the cat food?"

"I was going to take them home."

Mo smiled, then walked to Ji Xiaoge and put him under his umbrella: "Are you just passing by?"

"Ah, just hold an umbrella for them."

Ji Xiaoge, whose shoulders were a little wet because he was holding an umbrella for the kittens that were rubbing against him, was stunned for a moment, then he left Mo's umbrella and said with a smile: "I don't want to be blamed by Chenchen."

"Huh? Yuchen what..."

Mo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly widened his eyes, and almost staggered back half a step: "Uh, sorry!"

"Pfft, it's not necessary to react so strongly, mainly because I brought my own umbrella."

Ji Xiaoge was happy He laughed, and then turned his attention back to the four cats that were scared by Mo Tan and retreated into the hut: "Actually, Xiao Dao wanted to come over. She saw the weather forecast saying that it would rain continuously in the next few days, so she wanted to come and see if she could take the little guys back. But because the child is in a special period now, I came for her."

Mo Tan, who immediately understood what the special period meant, nodded slightly, walked slowly to the hut and held an umbrella for the little white cat who wanted to come out but was afraid of getting wet in the rain. While reaching out to tease Xiao Mo who was calling "meow meow" to show his goodwill, he said: "I thought so too. This place is not afraid of heavy rain, but if the heavy rain continues, it is likely to be flooded."

"You and Xiao Dao are really considerate."

Ji Xiaoge smiled awkwardly, and said a little embarrassedly: "I didn't think of these."

"It's just hypocritical. It doesn't matter if these guys have no one to take care of them."

Mo Tan shook his head, patted the heads of the other three kittens evenly, and asked Ji Xiaoge: "So are you going to take them back or am I going to take them back?"

The wingless beauty tilted her head and thought for a while, and suggested: "Or... two each?"

"I can do either, as long as they don't mind."

Mo Tan smiled slightly, then turned aside, chuckled and said to Ji Xiaoge: "You come to seduce first?"

"What do you mean by seduce..."

Ji Xiaoge rolled her eyes at Mo Tan, then moved closer to the four little ones, tilted her head and held the umbrella between her shoulders, and stretched out her hands to them with a smile: "Who wants to go home with sister for a few days~"

The snow-white little Mo meowed, and just as he took a step forward, he was slapped on the head by a furry little paw, and staggered on the spot.

"Xia Yuhe, you kid..."

Because Xia Yuhe's name was too eye-catching, and her sister liked it very much, Ji Xiaoge was deeply impressed by this little black cat. She immediately glared at it angrily and said angrily: "Don't bully your brother."

"Meow-meow!"

As soon as the voice fell, the little white cat that had just been slapped and staggered meowed at her twice, then tilted its head and rubbed Xia Yuhe, and lay at her feet very obediently.

"Meow~"

At the same time, the little cat with black background and white stripes quietly came behind the little white cat and raised its paw pads.

Then the little white cat kicked it in the face without looking back, and it fell on its back with a meow.

Ji Xiaoge: "..."

Mo Tan: "..."

"Meow~"

At this moment, Xiao Mo, who had just kicked Xiao Tan, stood up again, timidly took a half step towards Ji Xiaoge in front of him, and timidly turned his head to look at Xia Yuhe, who was pitch black, very silent but sharp-eyed.

"Meow."

Xia Yuhe turned his head to look at Xiao Mo, meowed briefly and flicked his tail.

"Meow——"

Xiao Mo shook his ears, carefully extended his right paw outside and rubbed the water-stained ground, then quickly retracted it as if he had been electrocuted, shivered, and showed Xia Yuhe his own wet paw.

"Meow~"

Xiao Hei, who was curled up in the innermost part, with black stripes on a white background, moved outward and meowed, seeming to be a little moved.

"Meow——"

The black-and-white-striped Xiao Tan tried to jump out of the hut after a disdainful cry, but was slapped back by Xia Yuhe, and then lay motionless next to Xiao Hei as if dead.

Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge watched the whole process with a blank look on their faces, staring at the high-intensity interaction of the four cats.

"Meow..."

Finally, accompanied by a thunder that frightened Xiao Hei, Xia Yuhe's attitude finally loosened. Under Ji Xiaoge's subtle gaze, she left the hut first with great reserve, walked to the girl with a cat-like step and meowed.

The next second, Xiao Mo immediately jumped out behind Xia Yuhe, squatted at Ji Xiaoge's feet, tilted his head and bit her trouser leg affectionately.

"I understand."

Mo Tan leaned down and stretched out his hand to the low house where only two kittens were left: "Then Xiao Mo and Xia Yuhe will be left to you two sisters to take care of in the next few days. I will take care of the other two... eh?"

In a flash, Xia Yuhe, who was just in front of Ji Xiaoge, turned around and ran to the low house quickly, and slapped Mo Tan's hand with one claw. Although the nails were not bright, for a kitten less than one year old, the strength of this claw can definitely be said to be quite strong.

"Meow."

Then, while Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge were still in a daze, Xia Yuhe called out to the black-bottomed white-striped and white-bottomed black-striped kittens in the low house twice, and then the two watched Xiao Tan and Xiao Hei lined up and walked out, and then--

crouched at Ji Xiaoge's feet together.

Mo Tan: "..."

"Puchi."

Ji Xiaoge, who had reacted, chuckled and turned to look at Mo Tan happily: "It seems that they all want to go with the pretty big sister."

"I can see that."

Mo Tan nodded with a wry smile and shrugged: "Then I'll trouble the pretty big sister. Do you want me to find you a bag?"

"Xiaodao has already asked me to bring it~"

Ji Xiaoge took out a roll of black plastic garbage bag from his pocket, skillfully opened it, and then caught Xiao Mo, Xiao Hei, Xiao Tan and Xia Yuhe one by one. After making sure that the heads of the kittens were all exposed, he used his nails to scratch the garbage bag. He made several ventilation holes and showed them to Mo Tan like a treasure: "Amazing, isn't it!"

"It's really amazing."

The latter nodded in agreement and reminded casually: "Hold an umbrella on the way back, don't just play with cats, they are covered with fur and are warmer than you."

As a result, Ji Xiaoge tilted her head again to hold the umbrella, and fiddled with her phone while holding the cat bag with some difficulty, and said happily: "I took a taxi here, and I must take a taxi back."

"That's right..."

Mo Tan, who just reacted, patted his head lightly, and then restrained the urge to walk in front of the girl to hold an umbrella for her, and stood firmly in place.

"Uh-huh, done, oh, by the way, I have to send a message to Xiaodao to let that girl rest assured~"

Ji Xiaoge, who successfully called an online car, opened the chat software to report safety to her sister, and casually said to Mo Tan next to him: "Will you wait for the car with me?"

"Yes."

The latter nodded slightly, forced a smile and said, "If you don't mind."

"What do I mind?"

After reporting that he was safe, Ji Xiaoge put away his mobile phone and turned to Mo Tan. He looked quite imposing with a cat bag and an umbrella in one hand: "By the way, are you a little nervous?"

"Yeah, I'm too nervous."

Mo Tan, whose mood was exposed, did not panic at all. He only smiled casually, and then said to Ji Xiaoge seriously: "So please be careful and don't let these four little guys sneak into the kitchen. If If something is accidentally eaten by them, be sure to contact the veterinarian as soon as possible to have the stomach irrigated.”

As expected, Ji Xiaoge's eyes widened immediately after hearing this, and he pretended to be angry: "You want to die!"

"Don't want to die."

Mo Tan, who could tell lies outside the game, smiled and said cheerfully, "I'm just a little nervous."

"You...well, don't worry, my kitchen...has a small problem...it won't be usable until it's renovated."

Perhaps because Mo Tan was considered half the owner of the four kittens, Ji Xiaoge finally reluctantly explained: "Now Xiaodao and I go to the stall downstairs to eat Chaos in the morning, and go there at noon. Have lunch in the school cafeteria and at most have some snacks in the evening.”

Mo Tan raised his eyes and said, "So your family is now..."

"There's no cooking for me."

Ji Xiaoge glared at them fiercely and said angrily: "Are you relieved? If you find any trouble, I will poison all four of them."

Mo Tan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "And then stage a scene of sisters turning against each other?"

"I understand, you are not a little nervous today at all, but a little panicked!"

Ji Xiaoge raised her fist at Mo Tan, then walked to a taxi that slowly stopped beside her, waved to Mo Tan and said, "Okay, okay, my car is here, you go back quickly. , The rain seems to be getting heavier and heavier. If it causes you to catch a cold, I will be so sorry to Yu Chen and Yi Dong. "

"knew."

Mo Tan also suppressed a smile and nodded: "Remember to report that you are safe when the time comes. You are too tall and are more dangerous than normal people like us."

"Hey, I just thought you were complimenting me."

Ji Xiaoge chuckled, then opened the car door, waved to Mo Tan and sat in.

Soon, the taxi whose license plate number was memorized by Mo Tan immediately disappeared from his sight.

Mo sighed and lowered the umbrella in his hand.

The raindrops, which were not cold but made people anxious, wetted Mo Tan's face, ears and temples.

The small house that lost its little master was empty, but it was unable to accommodate a frustrated soul.

The corner of his mouth was bitten with a hint of fishy sweetness, and the roar of thunder seemed to overthrow the whole world.

At PM18:39 in real time, Mo stood alone in the rain, clenching his fists.

However, just like countless times in the past, he still had no complaints and was just digesting this difficult aftertaste alone.

The subtle cracking sound was drowned out by the deafening thunder.

At 18:45 PM in real time, Mo Tan picked up his umbrella and walked back home slowly.

…

【Where is the sorrow? Leave people's hearts in autumn. Even if there is no rain, the plantains will still be sizzling. People say that the weather is good in the evening and there is a bright moon, so I am afraid of going upstairs.

Dreaming of retirement in old age. The flowers are empty and the smoke is flowing. Yan resigned and returned, but the guest still stayed. Weeping willows do not hang around the skirt. Long time is a boat trip.
