Cat Man

Xingxing looked at the wet black bird that landed on the windowsill, pondered for a moment, and then gently picked it up.

"Meow..." Mommy...

The kitten let out an inarticulate cry and scurried all the way to Xia Chen's feet, giving her a fright.

"Eh? Xingxing, what are you holding in your mouth?"

"Is it dirty? Put it down quickly!"

"Ah! It's a bird!"

After seeing clearly what the black mass was, Xia Chen immediately paused the TV, squatted down and carefully examined the ball that was shaking unconsciously on the floor. After confirming that there was no obvious external injury, he breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed the head of the kitten next to him as if to reward him.

"Xingxing is so kind that he even opened the window to save the little bird."

Finding a clean towel, Xia Chen wiped the wet crow dry, then put it into a warm air box specially designed for cats, intending to blow it dry with a gentle breeze first.

Throughout the whole process, Xingxing squatted curiously on the side, staring at the big bird inside through the glass barrier without blinking.

Narrator:

"He acts as a superhero every day, but he doesn't realize that he has touched the interests of the dark forces several times."

"He has attracted the attention of those guys in the dark."

"In fact, the villain leader has already found out his identity and came directly to our door."

[Oh my god? ? Is Xingxing being targeted? ]

[No, could this wet crow be the villain in the original work? ]

[Ah, so this was intentional? This guy got soaked so badly, is this a self-torture trick?]

"The villain leader is ruthless and cruel, and he is not a good person."

"However, things never go as planned. The villain leader, who had intended to sneak up on him and catch him off guard, met with an unexpected outcome."

“Although the villain leader saw him in the end, he was saved by him in the rain.”

[Oh! In the rain! The classic scene of saving the villain and bringing him home! I am familiar with this development. Will Ya Ya be reformed next? ]

[If you think about it carefully, the crows didn't seem to do anything bad. They just used various tricks to steal food from other animals. I think this kind of whitewashing of the villains is acceptable. ]

[Xibaibai is great! I've always been worried about cats and crows fighting! I like both of these animals, it would be great if they could live in harmony.]

"Okay, stop guarding!"

Seeing that the kitten was stubborn and refused to leave, Xia Chen rubbed its head helplessly and said, "The little bird hasn't come to its senses yet. As soon as it wakes up, you, Xingxing, are staring at it. It must be scared. Can Xingxing come over with her mother first?"

Xingxing looked up at the girl with a serious and solemn expression.

It wants to say——

But, this is the dangerous bad guy Crow in Maine's mouth!

Therefore, the cat must always stay on guard to protect its mother!

"Oh, I don't know what you are thinking."

Xia Chen couldn't persuade the kitten, so he could only squat aside, pulled a low stool, and waited for the crow to wake up while playing with his mobile phone.

When the leading crow woke up from the dizziness from hitting the glass, he found himself locked in a large, warm and dry box.

There was a slight breeze of warm air underneath, accompanied by faint but continuous sounds.

No matter where it is, the crow feels uneasy.

Leader Crow:?!

Frightened, it subconsciously wanted to flap its wings and fly away, but the bottom of its wings was still wet, so it couldn't fly at all. It could only flap its wings and hit the inner wall of the box with a bang.

I didn't fly away, and my head was dizzy again.

And, someone discovered that it had awakened.

"Meow!"

Almost at the same time when it hit the wall, a cat's head suddenly appeared and came to the glass. Its crystal clear cat eyes stared at the big black bird inside without blinking.

Leader Crow: ...

The heartbeat gradually quickened.

If any crow were put in its place in this scene, it would be scared.

The reason why crows are so arrogant is because of their ability to fly in the air and their instinct to unite and cooperate.

By flying at high altitude and clustering together, even if you cannot harm your opponent, you can ensure that you are not harmed.

But now, it was locked up alone in a closed box, and these two abilities were instantly gone.

No matter how big a size advantage crows have among passerine birds, they are just slightly larger prey to cats.

Looking at the cat's vertical pupils, which are unique to predators, the leading crow instinctively felt that something was wrong.

"Ga ga! Ga!"

As a conditioned reflex, it made a warning cry and flapped its wings vigorously, hitting the inner wall of the box with a puffing sound in an attempt to scare people.

However, the cat outside the glass was not moved at all, and even opened its mouth slightly, revealing a few small fangs:

"Oooooh?!"

Before she could scream, a big hand ruthlessly grabbed the back of Fate's neck and lifted her up, cutting her dangerous aura in half.

The cat's pupils instantly turned round after being suspended in the air, and an expression of disbelief was written all over its face.

Meow meow meow? ?

"Xingxing, you scared the birds."

Xia Chen shook his head helplessly, looked at the obviously frightened crow in the box, lowered his voice, and walked a few steps away with the cat.

At this time, let the bird slow down on its own.

But at this time, the cat in his hand began to struggle and cry non-stop.

“Ouch!”

“Woo!”

“Meow!”

The cat language that Xia Chen couldn't understand was filled with the kitten's anxiety.

Put it down meow!

That's a bad guy!

The cat has to watch it!

Don't underestimate Xingxing because of its small size. As an adult, it is a rural tabby cat with extremely high fighting power. When it is determined to struggle, even the scruff of fate's neck is useless.

Xia Chen was afraid that the cat would be hurt, so he had to put it down.

Seeing the kitten rushing forward and trying to pounce, she quickly held it back: "Hey! Don't hurt the bird!"

Seeing that the kitten was not convinced, she could only try to reason with it:

"Although crows are dark birds, they are good birds. Stars, please don't hurt them."

"You were doing a good deed by bringing it in just now. If you scare it now, you'll be a bad cat."

"Does Xingxing want to be a bad cat or a good cat? Hmm?"

The cat paused.

It raised its ears and received the human's words. It couldn't help but look back at Xia Chen, its clear cat eyes full of confusion.

Although Xingxing is a kitten, it has been influenced by humans since it was a child and can understand some key words in human speech.

For example, the word "good" was used by its mother to praise it before, and it was the second most praised word after "good boy".

But now, the mother seemed to be praising the crow.

Moreover, it seems to be saying later that if it scares crows, it is a bad cat.

Huh?

Why?

The cat's brain is down.

If you ask who Xingxing trusts most in this world, it must be Xia Chen.

The kitten's understanding of the world was all taught to it bit by bit by the human girl when it was still young. She has never made a mistake and has never doubted anything.

Xingxing was a little confused as she tried hard to think about Xia Chen's words.

Isn't this crow a bad guy?

Woo, but Maine said crows are bad guys...

Not wanting to question her new cat friend Maine, nor doubting her mother whom she had trusted since she was a child, Xingxing thought for a long time, her head almost smoking, and finally came to a compromise conclusion -

So, is this crow different from the other crows?

Narrator:

"TA actually recognized the villain leader and was about to attack, but was stopped by his own family."

"The adoptive mother didn't know the twists and turns in the other world. She simply thought the villain was an innocent child who was injured on a rainy night."

"So of course she couldn't understand his behavior."

"In the adoptive mother's world, the children should be harmonious and happy."

"Although he/she cannot accept his/her family's overly naive ideas at first, after thinking about it carefully, it does seem unreasonable to make a preconceived judgment based on appearance alone."

"After pondering for a long time, he decided that he could ask this guy about his position before deciding on his attitude."

[Hahahaha, the cat owner's idea is very normal. If my cat brings back a bird, I would also want them to live in harmony.]

[If the background was like that in the original work, the adoptive mother would probably be criticized as being naive and a hindrance... But I think there will be no problem here. 】

[Xingxing is so cute, haha, he actually froze in the middle of the road thinking, now he has to walk very carefully! ]

That's true.

After Xia Chen's words changed Xingxing's mind, he recalled the black fur ball that was soaked by the rain and shivering by the window just now, and felt that it was indeed not scary.

Even, a little bit pitiful.

Xingxing scratched the floor, feeling a little guilty.

By the way, when the cat first saw the crow, it immediately thought it was a bad guy.

However, according to Maine, bad crows always gather in a group, there must be at least two of them, but this crow fainted alone in the rain.

Is this a bad guy?

Why does it feel more like a poor crow isolated from the rest of the crow group?

Thinking of the threat he had just made, Xingxing felt a little embarrassed. He pretended to be busy licking the ground with his paws, and before he knew it, his ears drooped down, looking as if he was in the wrong.

If this crow is not a bad guy, then it just scared the other party...!

This goes against Catman's philosophy of protecting the world!

Shame on you, meow.

"Huh?"

It was visibly that the kitten was becoming more and more guilty, and Xia Chen couldn't understand the little guy's train of thought for a moment.

Well, she didn’t say anything harsh!

I just asked you not to scare the birds, how come you have airplane ears?

strangeness……

No one could guess what the kitten was thinking, including the panicked leader crow.

"quack!"

It stayed in the box for a while, and when it saw the little tabby cat approaching again, it immediately screamed like an alarm and flapped its wings to try to drive it away.

For a long time, cats and birds were enemies.

Now, it is the only crow that has mistakenly entered the cat world, and the consequences are foreseeable... Gah!

However, the cat's subsequent attitude was completely beyond Yaya's expectations.

"Meow~"

Hello~

The kitten lay gently outside the heater, meowing very friendly.

Are you being bullied?

Why don't you have any companions?

Is there anything I can help you with?

Leader Crow: ? ?

Surprised and confused.

Originally it thought this was a dead end, but it didn't expect the cat on the other side to suddenly change its attitude.

What happened? ?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the two-legged beast said something that caused the cat to suddenly change its attitude...

Yaya looked through the transparent glass and saw Xia Chen, who was always paying attention to the developments here in the distance.

Inexplicably, a subtle thought passed through its mind -

It seems that bipeds are the most worthy of use by the crows.

But soon, the thought drifted away again.

After all, the crows in the town have always been reluctant to get close to humans.

Humans are much more complex than cats and dogs, and possess abilities that are unimaginable to them. Although humans have countless wealth and food, crows cannot guarantee that they can take advantage of them and get away with it.

There may have been such leader crows in the past, but they are no longer there.

Now, no crow is willing to be the first to take action. Even the leading crow that has always been hesitating about the development of the crow group has not set its sights on humans.

"Meow?"

Just as the leader crow was thinking, the stars outside became impatient and pressed on the glass with their claws, as if they couldn't wait to get a reply from the leader crow.

"Gu..."

almost……

Apart from anything else, the most important thing now is to protect yourself.

So, the leading crow vaguely agreed to Xingxing's guess.

After receiving this reply, Xingxing felt even more guilty.

Oh my god! It turned out to be a truly innocent crow!

It seems like it did something wrong just now, meow!

Catman's sense of responsibility instantly surged in his heart. Looking at the crow in the box, which was several times smaller than him and looked alert, Xingxing apologized quietly:

“Meow.”

I’m sorry about what happened just now.

Xingxing tried hard to explain that he had bared his teeth to scare the leader crow because he had mistaken it for the scary group of crows in the town, and it was not targeting it.

Leader Crow: ...

The mood is subtle.

In a sense, there's nothing wrong with the kitten's reaction.

Originally, it could have ignored the cat, but in order to get more information about the cat group, it still communicated with the little tabby cat and tried to get some words from it.

But unfortunately, whether out of vigilance or something else, this cat did not reveal much information about the cat group, and every time it looked confused and said it didn't know.

Leader: ...

How could I not know!

You've done so much for them!

The leading crow was sharpening its claws in anger, but on the surface it pretended to be very calm in order to gain trust.

At least, get it out of this box first.

I don’t know if it was because its attitude was good enough, but after a while, the two-legged beast in the distance walked in and opened the door of the box.

"Well, should we do it?"

"Stars, move aside. Mommy will let the little bird out and let's see. Remember not to catch the little bird."

"Eh? You two have a good relationship, then I feel relieved."

The leader crow regained its freedom, but it did not fly away in a hurry. Instead, it walked slowly on the floor, not showing any fear even when the cat was right next to it.

After all, it has now found the home of the tabby cat, and there is no rush for revenge as long as it can get out alive.

What's more, it's raining outside...ugh, damn weather!

The leading crow withdrew its gaze from the window. The crackling sound of rain hitting the window made the bird feel uneasy and annoyed.

The clever crow knew that now that it had gained the cat's trust, staying indoors was the best option.

Safe enough, and...

It is also possible to pry open the cat's mouth.

It doesn't believe that this kitten knows nothing!

Narrator:

"Although he is controlled by others, the villain is still a villain and his mind is extremely strong."

"When asked about his position, the villain leader seized the opportunity and successfully disguised himself as a low-level underling who was oppressed in the villain camp, in order to deceive TA's trust."

"Good news, the villain succeeded."

[Although it was embarrassing to smash the window in the rain, it was rare for Crow to remain calm and deceive the cat even when the cat was following him ()]

[If you have this mentality, why not be a villain? If you just say something, you might not have to worry about food and drink! ]

[Maybe he has never had the awareness to cooperate with humans... But I feel that with this development, he is more and more likely to be influenced by the little sun cat hehe~]

"Meow~"

In order to make up for the offense of intimidating Yaya just now, Xingxing specially brought his favorite toy and placed it next to Yaya.

In fact, it has always been curious about these big black birds and always felt that they were very smart - but it just used it in the wrong place.

Unfortunately, since he is Catman, he can't hang out with bad guys, so he never gets the chance to interact with the crows.

But the crow in front of me said it itself that it is not a bad guy, so I can ask it!

It's super curious about crows!

The leader crow didn't understand what the kitten meant and his brain was working rapidly.

What's the meaning?

Want to get information from it?

Ya Ya raised his head slightly, and a hint of disdain flashed across his eyes.

Humph, do you still want to compete with it in scheming?

The scheming crow quickly came up with a set of words.

"quack……"

I don’t know anything…

In just a few words, it portrayed itself as a poor crow bullied and isolated by the crows. Not only did it naturally not reveal any information about the crows, it also tried to trick the cats into revealing their next action plan against the crows.

Of course, language skills are perfect.

"Quack, quack!" I hate them too, I can help you!

"Quack? Quack!" Where will it be next time? I'll help you lead the crows away!

The conversation skills are superb, but unfortunately the other party is not on the same channel as it.

"Meow……"

Every time Xingxing intervened in the crow flock, it was really just an accident. He just helped out when he saw injustice. How could there be any action plan?

It was also deceived by the leader crow's words. It really thought that the other crow was a poor crow that was isolated from the group and had no food to eat. It felt very pity for it for a moment, so it took the initiative to bring its own small bowl of cat food to it.

"Meow~"

Do you want to eat something first?

Leader Crow: ...

Gah, weird guy.

Yaya felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, but for the sake of the crow setting he had just created, he could only pretend to be grateful and lower his head to eat the cat food.

Xingxing raised the tip of his tail happily and looked at the crow picking and choosing in his bowl. He felt very satisfied for some reason.

cute!

I want to touch it!

After spending time together, Xingxing felt that the crow was not as scary as Maine described.

Is every crow different?

I heard that crows have a leader. If it is this crow, it will surely make everyone live in harmony, right?

It was originally just a sudden idea, but the more Xingxing thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

It doesn't want the cat and the bird to fight at all. Isn't it the best if everyone lives in harmony and protects the world together?

As soon as these words came out, the leader crow who was still pretending to be angry exploded:

"Ga!" Impossible!

"Haha!" Absolutely impossible!

Meeting Xingxing's puzzled gaze, Yaya quickly tried to make amends -

It means that the current leader of the crow group, Crow, has a bad temper and doesn't like cats, so it's impossible to reconcile...

The stars say something surprising:

“Meow!”

Then it’s your turn!

Leader Crow:?

“Meow!”

The cat will help you be the boss!

Leader Crow: ? ?

What nonsense is this kitten talking about!

It felt it was ridiculous, so in order to make the kitten give up, it asked a difficult question that all crows were concerned about - after living in harmony, how would the crows get food?

Xingxing tilted her head:

"Meow~" Looking for someone~

"Gah..." You're stupid...

The leading crow subconsciously wanted to refute, but due to the crow character he had created earlier, he could only cautiously express his disapproval.

Gah, forget it.

They are not popular.

"Meow?"

Xingxing didn't expect such a situation to happen.

But in its eyes, Crow is obviously very cute and handsome!

Besides, crows are very smart!

How could anyone not like it!

Cat shocked.jpg

Leader Crow: ...

For some reason, when it met the kitten's eyes full of love and praise, it subconsciously tidied up its feathers which seemed a little messy after blow-drying, opened and closed its sharp beak slightly, and called very softly.

"Haha." No need for compliments.

"Meow!" It's the truth!

The star is serious, it loves the bird so much.

But on second thought, humans’ aesthetic taste may be different from that of cats, so the crows may really be facing this dilemma.

Hmm...

After thinking for a long time, I recalled the various performances I had seen on TV, and an idea suddenly occurred to me -

Since you can’t rely on your looks, then rely on your talent!

Leader Crow: Huh?

"Yes, I found a crow, and Xingxing brought it back."

"Talk? Well, I've never heard of a crow in this town learning to talk, so that shouldn't be the case."

"Try it? Haha, I'm curious too, but Xingxing is with it all the time now, and I don't want to disturb the cross-species friendship, so I didn't go over... Eh? Are you two done talking?"

Xia Chen turned around and saw his kitten carrying a big crow slowly walking towards him.

Cats are delicate and cute, while crows are handsome and mysterious. When these two completely different creatures are put together, they are inexplicably harmonious and loving.

Perhaps only in this small town can the friendship and spirituality between animals be so unreserved.

This scene was so interesting that Xia Chen couldn't help but take a picture, and then asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Are you hungry?"

"Meow~"

The kitten purred twice, then suddenly shook its whiskers and meowed in a clear and meowing voice.

Before Xia Chen could figure out why the stars were chirping, he heard a cat's meow again:

"Guda... meow."

Xia Chen:?!

Looking up in shock, she saw the crow above the cat's head move its claws awkwardly, the down feathers in its throat trembled, it avoided her gaze, and called again very softly.

"Meow."

The leading crow felt that he was simply possessed by a ghost.

It actually followed the tabby cat's wild idea and learned the cat's meow in front of humans.

What the hell is the use of this!!

Of course crows can simulate a wide variety of sounds, but what's so surprising about such an ability?!

How could humans like this!

They control so many complex things!

Embarrassing, embarrassing.

After five seconds of silence, the leader crow's claws began to tangle. It looked around, already thinking about ignoring the rain and just crashing into the glass to get out.

I don’t care about any conspiracy or disguise!

It's meowing like a cat...it's not a crow anymore!!

Gah!

“Woo…”

My head itches.

Xingxing hummed a few times, but did not shake her head to throw the crow away because of the tingling sensation on her head. Instead, she raised her paw and patted the human's calf to bring her back to her senses.

Xia Chen:……!

She finally came back to her senses.

The impact of those two sounds just now was too great.

But after she realized it, she was extremely happy.

"Oh my god, you two are so cute!" She could hardly hold back the smile on her face, she was so excited that she couldn't say anything more. "Could it be that you were chirping in the corner just now just to prepare this? This is amazing! So great! So cute!"

She ignored the phone call and quickly ran to the snack cabinet to get some cat food. She also grabbed a handful of peanuts for herself and ran back to reward the two little cuties:

"They are two funny guys, haha..."

"How come that's the case? Huh?"

"Be good, let mommy kiss you!"

Star purred and took human affection and compliments well, but the leader crow was different.

It's almost a bit overwhelming.

Although Xia Chen did not touch it directly, it could clearly feel the undisguised love and the rewards that were so close to it.

This is the first time it has faced human love.

Yaya's worldview suffered an earthquake.

It never expected that the cat's trick could actually...

Can just a simple imitation make humans so happy?

This is almost contrary to Ya Ya's original idea.

"Meow~"

Xingxing licked the cat strips happily, and when she came back, she saw her friend's suspicious expression. She thought it was touched by the rare warmth, so she came over and comforted him softly:

You see, it’s useful, meow!

You can have food without fighting!

No one doesn't like Crow!

This time, the leading crow did not refute immediately.

It just stared quietly at the peanuts on the table, gently moving them with its sharp beak, feeling very magical.

Is it that simple?

Is that all that's left to do?

Aren’t humans originally inaccessible?

...No, no, we still have to be vigilant.

Since the fate of the entire species is at stake, the leader crow is still very cautious even if he has tasted the sweetness of success.

Maybe this human being is just special?

After all, it was humans who raised the tabby cats. What if they had colluded?

“Gah.”

In response to Xingxing's comfort, the leading crow let out a low cry, and for the first time took the initiative to move closer, quietly asking the cat to teach it some more knowledge about humans.

Anyway, let it try a few more times.

It might stay here for a few more days.
