Volume 1_Chapter 145 "Wild Cat"



One day ago.

Having been rejected by Panliu Mountain several times, Xiong Tai has always believed that the gifts he gave were not up to standard and that the wealthy Ma Dapao looked down upon them.

He wanted to give up and go home to lie down, but he heard several children of homeless survivors tell him that they could find a lot of good things in the garbage dumped in Panliu Mountain every day, and asked him to go with them.

As an extremely rare space-based psychic, Xiong Tai did not feel embarrassed at all. He immediately took a torn bag and followed a group of children out to pick up trash.

On the way, a familiar kid asked him, "Brother Tai, is there someone else at home? I just saw a pair of leather shoes in the house. They're definitely not yours. You're usually too lazy to wear just flip-flops."

Xiong Tai snorted: "Why do you care so much? He is a rich man anyway. He gave me those leather shoes, but I don't want to wear them."

In fact, he couldn't get through.

The big shot was someone he met one night when he was drunk. He had a broken leg and was dying.

Xiong Tai didn't want to care at first, but when he saw that he was dressed decently and had a gold watch on his wrist, he wanted to just take him away.

But the big man said, "If you save me, I have something good to give you."

As she said this, she took off her watch and handed it to him.

When Xiong Tai saw that he was so wealthy, he thought that he was telling the truth, so he carried him back.

That night, the big shot revealed his identity, saying that he was a senior researcher and was going to Changjing to deliver a very important zombie research document. However, the team encountered a zombie tide on the way, and he was the only one who survived.

Xiong Tai was not well educated and was completely confused. He said impatiently:

"Just tell me, what good will it do to save you?"

The opponent gave him a crystal core for evolving zombies.

Xiong Tai was a little disgusted: "Can you give me money, or something that can be converted into cash immediately, such as a watch, glasses, communicator, etc. What can this thing do?"

"It can make you stronger. You are a superpower. Don't you want to become stronger?"

Xiong Tai was speechless: "You are bullying me because I am uneducated and easy to cheat, right? I don't want to become stronger, I just want to have a drink."

This was the first time the researcher had encountered such a bad-tempered psychic. He was choked for a moment and said after a while:

"I don't have anything else. I lost it all along the way. As for the crystal core, you can ask someone who knows about it. I'm sure you can sell it. Even if you can't, wait for my companions to find me and I'll buy it from you."

Xiong Tai gave up after hearing this.

The next day, he sold the golden mechanical watch and exchanged it for three bottles of white wine.

I originally wanted to give this wine to the female boss of Panliu Mountain, but Ma Dapao still looked down on it, saying that their boss had everything she needed.

Wow, you have such high standards.

So he drank the three bottles of white wine at home and lived a god-like life for a few days.

The child was a little surprised when he heard this, and then he thought he was pretending to be a liar, so he said sarcastically:

"What big shot? You can't even support yourself. How can a big shot come to your house to beg for food?"

Xiong Tai glared at him: "Don't meddle in the affairs of adults."

The children were not afraid of him and ran away laughing.

When they arrived at the foot of Panliu Mountain, Xiong Tai and a group of children walked around the busy queue area and went to the garbage dump on the back mountain.

At this time, there were already quite a few skinny homeless survivors rummaging around the trash cans. When they saw Xiong Tai and his group coming to pick up trash, they were a little hostile.

Xiong Tai ignored them and dived into the garbage dump to search.

It’s true that there are so many good things in Panliu Mountain, including fresh vegetables. Although most of them are leftovers or rotten leaves from other people’s meals, he doesn’t care at all. He puts them in his mouth without even washing them, and doesn’t care whether they are clean or not, as long as they can make a meal.

He packed up the leftovers and planned to take them back home, maybe even exchange them for some wine.

After that, he found empty shampoo bottles and beverage bottles one after another.

The children around me said enviously: "The people in Panliu Mountain have such a good life. The shampoo bottles are so beautiful. You can wash and cut them open and take them home to use as bowls. And there are also these beverage bottles."

The child looked at the advertisement printed on it and licked his chapped lips. "I know a guy who said that this bottle is filled with sweet water. It's delicious and quenches thirst."

Xiong Tai didn't care much. He didn't care about anything sweet or delicious. As long as he had wine to drink and didn't starve to death, it was fine.

If he could go to Panliu Mountain to work, he could realize his dream immediately. He would have a free house to live in and money to buy alcohol. It would be so wonderful.

It’s just that the female boss is difficult to serve and doesn’t care about any courtesy.

Ma Dapao is also a snob. He didn't even help others when he became rich.

Xiong Tai continued to rummage through the garbage with a feeling of resentment in his heart. When he was tired, he would lie down on the garbage pile and take a deep sleep. When he woke up, he would continue to rummage through the garbage.

When the sun was about to set, he was ready to go back when he suddenly saw a black cat on a rock not far away.

But it disappeared in a blink of an eye. He rubbed his eyes and looked around, and sure enough, he found it on the slope on the other side.

Digging a hole to urinate.

The black cat has shiny fur and big round eyes that are so cute.

Xiong Tai opened his eyes wide and asked, "Is this a cat? Who owns it?"

The child shook his head and said, "I don't know. I often see it sleeping on the trash can. When it wakes up, it runs around everywhere. No one cares about it. I guess no one takes care of it."

An idea immediately popped up in Xiong Tai's mind: Do women all like this kind of little thing?

He had heard that some wives of wealthy businessmen in Changjing kept cats and dogs.

If this were given as a gift, it would definitely be presentable!

The child saw that his eyes were shining and he wanted to get closer to the black cat, so he immediately warned him:

"It's very ferocious. Someone once tried to catch it and kill it for food, but it scratched his face and left him blind for a month. He was nearly crippled."

It’s so fierce, it must be a wild cat. Who would dare to raise one?

Xiong Tai stopped and was quite surprised: "This little thing is so fierce?"

The child hurried home: "I'm not kidding you, don't be fooled by its cuteness. It's very alert and will run away if people get close to it. I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go back. My grandma hasn't eaten all day. I picked up half a piece of dry bread and I have to bring it back to her quickly."

After everyone around had left and it had become completely dark, Xiong Tai tried to get close to it several times, but it ran away every time.

Xiong Tai became a little impatient, and used his spatial ability to weave a "cage" in the void, and reluctantly put half a sausage in it.

Damn it, he himself couldn’t bear to eat it, and he really spent a lot of money to get the little beast to take the bait.

Unexpectedly, the black cat didn't even look at him. Instead, it climbed up a dead tree and looked down at him as if he were a clown.

Xiong Tai was shocked that there were animals that didn't eat sausages. He couldn't understand why, so he had to exchange them for biscuits, vegetable leaves, and even his only half bottle of water.

Ignore them all!

It seems like he is used to these things, or even disdains them!

Xiong Tai's ability has a distance limit. He can't throw the "cage" if it's too far, so he has to get frustrated and climb up the tree using his hands and feet.

When he was almost there and was about to throw out a "cage" excitedly, the black cat gave him a sharp look, jumped down, and immediately ran to a dead tree farther away.

Xiong Tai had the illusion that he was being made a fool of. His face turned red with anger. He couldn't help cursing his parents and vowed to catch this little beast.

As a result, as soon as he ran to another tree, he fell down and the crystal core rolled out of his pocket.
