643 · Haining Cat Island (53)
Perhaps it was everyone's insistence that "it can be done" that gave Li Ge unlimited confidence. After a few simple words of advice, Li Ge quickly agreed to this plan.
The group returned to Li Ge's house in a mighty procession.
The door of Li Ge's house was half open. Li Ge's mother was worried about Li Ge's safety. She leaned against the door and looked into the distance. When she saw their approaching figures, a trace of relief first appeared in her eyes, followed by worry.
"Mom!" Li Ge ran forward a few steps, but before he could run over, his hand was grabbed by Fang Xiang behind him.
"Why are you arresting me?" Li Ge turned around and asked in surprise.
[It’s agreed,] Fang Xiang winked frantically, [you’ll obey us in everything.]
"Oh...oh," Li Ge reacted immediately and lowered his voice, "Then...then what should I do?"
"Wu Zhili, why are you running away!" Lu Changfeng quickly told him, "Don't think about running away. Let's make this matter clear today. What does it mean that it has nothing to do with you?"
"This...it has nothing to do with me!" Li Ge's brain was working quickly, "That's not something I can decide!"
"How can it have nothing to do with you?" The group of people pulled closer and closer, and finally returned to the door of Li Ge's house. "You mentioned to us in person that your mother can talk to cats!"
"I...my mom can talk to cats..." Li Ge's eyes lit up and he quickly continued, "But I can't. If you want to ask...just ask my mom! I'm also a victim!"
"Auntie...," Guan Hongyan took a step forward and crossed her arms, "Our workplace was destroyed by a cat. You were able to talk to the cat, and it just so happened that your son was locked up at home and not allowed to go to work that day. There can't be no connection between these three things, right?"
"Do you think I instigated the cat to do this?" Li Ge's mother frowned slightly, with a hint of absurdity in her eyes, "How is it possible? How could a cat do this?"
"Wu Zhili, what did you say to your friend?" She turned and looked at Brother Li unhappily.
"I just mentioned it casually..." Li Ge's momentum weakened a bit, "Then I... can't I mention it?"
"He said I could talk to cats, but I just tricked him when he was a kid," Li Ge's mother frowned and turned around to say patiently, "It's true that I didn't let him go out because my family didn't approve of his career, but the store being smashed... definitely has nothing to do with me."
"After all, no matter how you look at it, this is the shop he rented and renovated himself," she sighed slightly, "even if my family doesn't agree, we can't destroy it."
That's true.
Bai Jinshu turned around and exchanged glances with Guan Hongyan. They had thought the same before they came.
No matter what, Maode Academy is a shop that Li Ge renovated with his own money. Even if his family objects, the worst result is that the shop is rented out. It is unlikely that the shop will be directly demolished, causing huge losses.
After all, no one's money comes from the wind, and Li Ge's family background should not be enough to support his family's extravagance.
Since it wasn't Li Ge's mother who did it, then it's up to the cats themselves to decide.
Fortunately, they showed up here today not to make Li Ge's mother admit that she smashed the store, but to make Li Ge's mother give up the cat.
Everyone looked at each other, and Lu Changfeng immediately stepped forward: "I don't believe it! We know everything!"
"Know what?" Li Ge's mother's pupils shrank for a moment, and she immediately pressed her eyebrows to hide her surprise. She regained her composure and asked, "Could it be that I hired a demolition team to destroy the equipment in Maode Academy in the middle of the night?"
"We just talked about smashing," Guan Hongyan quickly caught the loophole in her words, "Generally speaking, when we talk about smashing, people think it means smashing the store. How do you know that the equipment was damaged? You must know!"
"This... Madam," Li Ge's mother smiled helplessly, "Wu Zhili has already told me."
Li Ge next to him: ...
Guilty.jpg
He blinked guiltily, then clasped his palms together and bowed to Bai Jinshu who was looking at him, as if begging for mercy.
He just said it when he was throwing a tantrum...
It seems that the trick of finding loopholes in speech is not feasible. Guan Hongyan made a prompt decision and started plan B.
"Stop pretending." She took a step to the side, revealing Bai Jinshu and the ocelot in his arms. "We know everything about your island."
"The cats on your island are not normal cats," Bai Jinshu turned sideways, indicating that the cat on his shoulder was on their side. "We already know this, you don't have to hide it. Li Ge's store was destroyed in retaliation because he sterilized a stray cat."
"I'm not sure what you're talking about..." Li Ge's mother lowered her eyes helplessly. "As for the sterilization of stray cats, the island does advocate natural breeding. Stray cats that have been sterilized will be rejected after returning to the group, so it's normal for them to be hated by other cats. But if you're talking about other issues, such as the store being smashed... To be honest, I don't think that much can be done just for cats."
"Whether it is true or not is not up to you to decide," Lu Changfeng held Li Ge and took a step forward, saying threateningly, "If you don't tell us the truth about the smashing of Maode Academy, we will expose this matter. Your son has an account with tens of millions of fans, and by then many people will see this!"
"Yes... yes, mom!" Li Ge also quickly responded, "You didn't let me go out the day my store was smashed. Today I didn't go out, and as a result, the water pipes on the whole street were broken, and it spread to other streets. This matter is not just about us, but also involves many neighbors. You have to tell me what happened, so that I can have an explanation with the people involved."
Having said that, everyone's attention was now focused on Li Ge's mother.
"I don't know," she shook her head slowly, "I've already said it, I don't know much about what happened between you. I only know that you came up to threaten my son and broke into my house. If you do this again, I'm going to call the police."
He just won't eat anything.
Everyone behind Bai Jinshu looked at each other.
Guan Hongyan: [Do you want plan C? ]
Lu Changfeng: [That’s too fast, Sister Guan! ]
Guan Hongyan: [This person is stubborn! What else can you do? ]
Lu Changfeng: [Uh... there is no way. ]
Bai Jinshu felt his watch vibrate a few times, and looked down: [Guan Hongyan: Plan C, hurry up, hurry up, Plan C! ]
The moment the message was sent, the two people standing at the door quickly turned around and closed the door. The moment the door closed, the leopard cat lying on Bai Jinshu's shoulder also moved, and the next second, countless red tentacles spewed out of its mouth.
In the dim living room, these red tentacles were like a flower that suddenly opened, and suddenly opened up, surrounding the leopard cat that sent out the tentacles and suspending it in the middle, like a brown flower heart. Not to mention the unaware Li Ge, even the several exploration team members who had discussed this plan in advance were shocked by this situation.
Li Ge was probably the only one in the room who was really frightened. The moment the tentacles spread out, he took several steps back and blurted out, "Fuck."
Did this happen when they were discussing it just now?
He opened his eyes in horror and looked at the other people, trying to get the answer from their eyes, but found that no one was looking at him, so he could only step back a few steps timidly.
What’s going on?
What's going on?
Why do cats spit out tentacles from their mouths?
He looked at the leader fearfully for a few times, then pulled Fang Xiang beside him and asked in a self-righteous whisper, "What is this? A cat toy?"
"This is a tentacle." Fang Xiang looked at it with a look of pity.
Li Ge: ...
Brother Li wanted to faint from the shock.
Barrage:
【Li Ge: A truly ignorant person.】
【Brother Li: Bring the devils into the village.】
[Brother Li, don’t think we didn’t see you secretly taking out your phone and trying to call the police.]
【It seems that Li Ge did not call 110. 】
[Fuck, Li Ge hit 120. ]
[…He’s not calling the police, he thinks he’s crazy? ]
Fang Xiang, who was standing next to him, silently took the phone from Li Ge's hand, and was silent for two seconds when he saw the number 120 on it.
There was chaos behind Bai Jinshu. In front of him, Li Ge's mother seemed very surprised. However, the moment the leopard cat spit out its tentacles, they had already caught the difference and surprise that flashed across her eyes.
This doesn't look like ignorance.
"We really didn't cheat you," Guan Hongyan seized the opportunity and quickly said, "You can see that this cat has a good relationship with us, and we just want to know the truth."
Compared with his attitude just now, this sentence was softer, but his actions were not softer. Huai Jiamu's tentacles were still standing upright in the middle of the room, clearly showing his attitude.
This is not an inquiry, but a forced confession.
The evidence is all pasted on their faces. Now Li Ge's mother can no longer regard them as uninformed people who are making false confessions. Instead, she must really regard them as people who may leak the secret or even hold evidence.
But Li Ge's mother still refused to listen.
"What...what is this?" She took three steps back and grabbed the corner of the table with her backhand. "I really want to call the police..."
"I...I want to--" She grabbed the broom next to her and hit the tentacle, "What is this! Don't play tricks--"
[I give in,] Guan Hongyan typed in a low voice with gritted teeth in the back, [I won’t give in to any soft or hard tactics.]
The tentacles were pressed against her face, and her face was full of fake surprise, but she just refused to admit it.
【Guan Hongyan: How about a hard approach? 】
[Huh?] Fang Xiang asked in confusion, [What is hard?]
Isn't the toughest trick they have here to make the leader show his tentacles?
【Guan Hongyan: Who can hold Brother Li down for me...】
Before she could finish her words, she saw Du Zhongsheng rushing out in front of her, with a rusty kitchen knife suddenly in his hand.
"Fuck," Guan Hongyan was shocked for a moment and blurted out, "I haven't finished yet--"
I've never seen Du Zhongsheng so active before!
Don't really chop off Li Ge's mother - they just said tough things to scare her, they don't really want to chop off her hands and feet!
It's just exploring a rule, but breaking someone's hands and feet is too evil... Damn, I forgot that Du Zhongsheng is the saint of a cult.
He jumped out so fast that even the cat hanging in the air next to him didn't have time to react.
The next step, the knife suddenly moved infinitely close to Li Ge’s mother’s throat.
