Chapter 1001: Who Is Scared of Who

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Zhang Zian felt that Vladimir was quite interesting. It would often recite poems before it appeared.

After hearing the poem being recited, he knew he did not need to do anything. Looking up towards the voice, he saw Vladimir crouching in the district’s gas supply pipeline. What was more surprising was that there were several other cats beside it––a grey one, a calico one, and one that was black under the nose with a Hitler-like mustache, which looked very funny.

The three cats were grey-headed and dirt-faced. Their hair was messy. Several pinches of hair were stuck together and stranded. They all looked like stray cats that wandered around nearby. They were squatting next to Vladimir on the gas supply pipeline, their heads lowered to stare at the people below.

The small white cat, whose life was being threatened, started to meow at them, as if it was asking for help. Although the other people did not understand Vladimir’s poem, they had all heard their meows and saw the four cats on the gas supply pipeline.

“Haha! Now, this is interesting! There are so many stray cats all of a sudden! I thought that all the stray cats in the community had been knocked out by me, but I didn’t expect that there were still a few cats leaking out of the net!” Liu Yonghui laughed and hid the bat behind him. He took out a plastic, self-sealing bag from his jeans hip pocket, took out a few dried fish from the bag, waved them at Vladimir, and said, “Come down and eat dried fish.”

Liu Wenying stared at the cats, worried that they would really be tempted by the dried fish and would jump down.

Her Fluffy had gotten rabies after it was scratched by stray cats, so there was a period of time when she also really hated the stray cat that had scratched and hurt Fluffy. She had even personally used a baseball bat and gone around the area to find it so she could prevent other house cats from getting scratched and injured. But after all, how can innocent people be killed indiscriminately?

The most important thing was, the cats didn’t seem like cats with rabies!

Ever since that happened to Fluffy, she had learned from Zhang Zian that for animals infected with rabies, there was often a fear of light and wind. It was noon now, and the sun was strong and the breeze was blowing, but the cats did not care.

She kindheartedly reminded him, “A Hui, do you see that the blue cat’s fur is quite orderly? It doesn’t look like a stray cat. It could be a cat from someone’s house that ran out. If you kill it, the owners might come to find you and ask you to pay money...”

“What’s there to be scared of? It doesn’t even have a collar on it. Who can prove that it is a house pet? Furthermore, aren’t cats that run away now stray cats? There’s nothing wrong with that!” Liu Yonghui said, unmoved.

Zhang Zian did not say anything; he had already gone into the spectator mode. The only worry was whether he should call the ambulance beforehand...

Vladimir stared at Liu Yonghui. It lightly leaped from the gas supply pipeline onto the ground and moved closer slowly, as if it had really been attracted by the dried fish.

Zhang Zian had to admit it––it really could act. The nervous and covetous look was precisely acted out. It was almost as good as Famous, but the unabashed banter in its eyes still made it a bit out of character. However, that was only because he knew that it was playing Liu Yonghui. Otherwise, he might not have seen it.

Liu Yonghui had been tricked by its acting skills. It dangled the dry fish in front of it, and also shook it at the other three cats that were still seated on the gas supply pipeline. He said, “Hurry and ask your other counterparts to come down too. I have as much dry fish as you want! Definitely enough!”

Vladimir smiled coldly, then turned its head back to say to the other cats, “God d*mn! If people don’t provoke me, I won’t provoke them. But if people provoke me, I’ll definitely retaliate!”

The rest of the cats seemed to have gotten their orders. They jumped down from the gas supply pipeline one by one, circling Liu Yonghui in a crescent shape.

Liu Yonghui had backed the small white cat into a corner, and now he was being backed into a corner as well by the other three cats.

“Eh?” Liu Wenying was surprised by the actions of four cats, including Vladimir, because their well-trained performance was not like ordinary cats. She could not help but wonder if they were trained by Zhang Zian. But she knew that was not right. The cats that looked so messy were really homeless cats.

Liu Wenyong also noticed that the actions of the cats were a bit strange. They were different from the stray cats he had killed previously. The look they were giving him seemed full of hate.

They wanted to... take revenge?

But he was not scared. He had so many cat lives on his hands. Even if they became elfins, they were just cats. What could they do to him? Wasn’t it still that he would kill them one by one with one hit?

“Haha, all right. You guys want to play, right...?” He laughed. He tried to appear tough outwardly and threw the plastic bag with dried fish on the ground. He quietly pulled out the metal bat from behind him, intending to wait for the stray cats to grab food.

In the end, he did not think that Vladimir would flick its paws and sweep the plastic bag aside. The other three cats were instinctively attracted by the smell of dried fish, but they insisted on staying where they were.

Liu Wenyong had identified it: The blue cat was the leader. She had heard that there was an alpha in a group of dogs, and alpha in a pack of wolves, but she had never heard of a leader among cats. That was something new.

“You...” He used his baseball bat to point at Vladimir like how he pointed at Zhang Zian just now. “You assh*le!”

Before he managed to say what he wanted to say, Vladimir reached out its front paw at lightning speed, then used a claw to hit the side of the baseball bat.

The force in which Vladimir hit the baseball bat was extremely strong. It caused Liu Yonghui’s wrist to break, and he could no longer hold the baseball bat.

“Aiya!” He held his wrist with his mouth open. Sweat from the pain covered his body as his bat fell to the ground with a bang and rolled a distance away.

Vladimir raised his paw and shouted, “Who is afraid of today’s world when the east wind blows and the drums roll? Comrades meow, onward!”

Zhang Zian was speechless.

The other three cats got the signal. It was like they were injected with chicken’s blood as they gave a mournful cry. They rushed at Liu Yonghui from different angles and directions. The calico cat climbed up to his waist along his legs. It was interested in the fat that appeared between the short-sleeved T-shirt and low-waisted jeans. The gray cat scratched his bare arms with its claws and caught blood. The little bearded cat jumped from behind to his shoulder, hugged his neck, and scratched and bit at his hair and head.

Liu Yonghui did not think he would ever be met with such a situation. In the past when stray cats met him, they couldn’t escape fast enough.

His right wrist was in extreme pain. He had been caught off guard, so he could only use his left hand to protect his face. The rest of the places they were attacking were rough and fleshy anyway, so he would not die from being scratched a few times.

He shook his body, trying his best to get rid of the three cats. He frantically ran away in a random direction.

What worried him was the pain on his body... The cats did not have rabies, right?
