Chapter 111 The Little Cat Black Bean That Can Eat Ghosts
The old lady, with her long, wavy hair, was about to go out to find Wujiangxue.
"Officer, I need to call the police!"
"What right do you have to sue me!" Big Wave struggled violently. "Let go of me! Don't pull me!"
She felt she was in the right, "I've already apologized for throwing things downstairs!"
"This is between her and me, what right do you have to meddle!"
As she spoke, she gave the old lady a hard push.
The old lady was indeed old, and she stumbled when pushed like that.
I tripped over my own feet and almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, her son was standing by and caught the old lady.
The old lady's son stared wide-eyed; he was as strong as a calf.
Why did you push my mom?!
Big Wave took two steps back, his face turning pale with fright.
The old lady lay in her son's arms, clutching her ankle and groaning.
She pointed angrily at the large waves, her finger trembling:
"You...I'm going to sue you!"
When she fell, Big Waves was actually quite startled.
Shiori's son, as big as a calf beside her, stared wide-eyed, barely suppressing his fear:
"You're alright! Don't... don't try to scam me out of my money!"
As she spoke, she was afraid that the old lady would really call the police, and she was also worried that she would be beaten, so she buried her head and tried to run out.
"Don't go!"
The girl with the high ponytail suddenly grabbed her.
Looking at her tear-stained eye makeup, I no longer felt sorry for my friend.
All that remained was resentment towards her for being so shameless.
High ponytail: "The landlord is here, so let's have a proper talk about the house!"
The landlord nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes!"
But the landlord is quite old, and he doesn't have trouble renting out his house, so he doesn't want to waste time negotiating anything.
Pointing directly at the big waves, he said, "Miss, we already agreed on this when we signed the rental contract."
“This house is for the two of you to live in, and you can’t rent it out without permission.”
"You want to kick your friend out without saying a word, and you also want your boyfriend to move in."
"You're both ganging up with others to kick your roommate out and throwing your roommate's things out of the window..."
The old landlord shrugged and said, "How could I dare let you live in my house looking like this?"
"If something goes wrong in the future, I'll have to pay compensation."
"Even if nothing happens in the future, what if you have a problem with me and damage my house?"
Although the landlord's tone was gentle, his words were not very tactful.
They practically pointed their fingers at the big-haired girl and accused her of being a morally corrupt person.
Big Waves blushed and her eyes turned red.
She looked at the many people standing in her house, all frowning at her as if she had done something heinous.
Feeling both embarrassed and annoyed, she stomped her foot and simply blamed everything on the high ponytail:
"All I asked you to do was find me a house! Why did you bring such a bunch of people to bully me?"
High ponytail: "..."
She was amused by the big waves again, but she had lost the patience to continue arguing with her.
Originally, I thought that the two of us had supported each other since graduation and had shared joys and sorrows.
Who knew that a bald old man would be enough to destroy this friendship?
"You know perfectly well who's bullying whom. These people are coming to you because you threw things downstairs..."
Before she could speak, the woman with big waves screamed and cried:
"Those are your things! Who told you not to take them with you! If you didn't take them, you wouldn't even let me throw them down!"
The landlord closed his eyes in despair.
How come there's only one person living in his house!
Fortunately, it was discovered early!
"Miss, I don't want to say anything more. You should leave! I can't keep you here."
The old landlord walked through the crowd with his hands behind his back, saying, "I'll have my son come and watch you pack your things in a bit."
"Pack your things and leave now. I'll refund your deposit and the remaining rent."
Big Wave disagrees.
"If you kick me out, where will I live!"
The landlord sighed, "That's something you should be thinking about."
Worried that the young woman might try to take advantage of him, he quickly waved his hand.
"My son will be here soon. He has a rather volatile temper and will start a fight without warning."
"Unlike me, who's so good-natured and willing to listen to all this... You'd better hurry up and pack up."
After saying that, he quickly left.
The old lady was helped up by her son, and rolled her eyes at the big-haired woman.
His tone was aggressive: "You're not leaving! You threw things downstairs and hurt me! This isn't over!"
During the argument, colleagues from the police station arrived.
The group took Boss Wang away. When they came up and tried to hold down Big Wave, Big Wave slapped their hands away while crying.
"Don't touch me! Don't touch me! I'm going to sue you for harassment!"
The young officer was slapped hard across the face, clutching his hand and wincing in pain.
His tone turned harsh, "Miss, I haven't even met you yet, how am I harassing you!"
Big Wave squatted on the spot, crying his heart out.
"You're all bullying me! I just want to live with my boyfriend, why are you all stopping me!"
The officer, who had just been slapped, couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Seeing how emotionally unstable she was, I didn't dare to force her to leave.
Walking up to Wu Jiangxue, he said with difficulty, "Wu sir, you're the only policewoman here, could you...?"
"I understand." Wu Jiangxue nodded knowingly.
He patted the young policeman on the shoulder and said, "I'll take her away. You take him with you first."
After handing Mr. Wang over to his colleague, Wu Jiangxue squatted down in front of the big waves.
"I'm a woman, let me take you away."
She pulled Big Wave up, but Big Wave cried and shook off her hand.
"Get away from me! And don't touch me!"
"You police officers who are paid with taxpayers' money are all bad people! You only know how to bully good people!"
She wiped her eyes with her hand, revealing black eye makeup that smudged onto her eyes and the back of her hand.
With her eye makeup a mess, she cried even more pitifully.
“Those things all belong to Guo Lan. If you’re going to arrest someone, you should arrest her! Why are you arresting me!”
"She was occupying the house and wouldn't leave, so I had no choice but to throw her out!"
The woman with the high ponytail stood to the side, listening to her rambling and unreasonable arguments, and sighed.
He said to Wu Jiangxue, "Sir, since this matter concerns me, I'll go back to the police station with you."
She was fine when she didn't speak, but once she did, it seemed to reignite Da Bolang's sensitive nerves.
Big Wave suddenly stood up and walked straight to High Ponytail's side.
To the astonishment of the woman with the high ponytail, he suddenly reached out and shoved her hard.
The girl with the high ponytail was prepared for this, and although she didn't succeed, she was still so angry that her head was buzzing.
Why did you push me?!
Big Waves' eyes were bloodshot, and he clenched his teeth tightly.
"I know! It was all your trap. You got me caught up in it, and then you ended up with Boss Wang."
"You've been jealous of me being Mr. Wang's girlfriend for a long time, haven't you?!"
"You big idiot!" The woman with the high ponytail finally couldn't help but yell.
She pointed at the wavy neck, wishing she could go up and shake her head to shake all the water out of her head.
Why would I sell my conscience for a bald man?!
"And do you know," the woman with the high ponytail pointed outside the door, "that person already has a wife and children abroad!"
"Who do you think you are? You're at most his mistress!"
"You don't even know you've become a mistress, so why are you yelling at me like that!"
"With the energy you have to fight, you should go get your head checked and get some glasses!"
After finishing her rant, Gao Mawei's chest heaved with anger, and her face turned bright red.
She glared at the stunned woman with big waves in the hair and cursed, "Bad luck."
They left behind the police officer who took Mr. Wang away.
The woman with big waves had a blank expression, her eyes glazed over by the information in the woman with high ponytail's words.
She stood there, feeling a sudden dizziness.
She swayed and was about to fall when Wu Jiangxue quickly caught her. "Miss, are you alright?"
Looking at Wu Jiangxue's concerned eyes, Da Bolang burst into tears.
"They all lied to me, they all lied to me!"
Finally, amidst the cries and screams of Da Bolang, she was taken to a police car by Wu Jiangxue.
Chu Ci followed Wu Jiangxue out, but the two kittens had already disappeared.
Wu Jiangxue got into the police car and smiled apologetically at Chu Ci.
"I might have to work overtime later, I'll contact you when I have time."
“Okay,” Chu Ci waved to her, “Work is important, go on.”
Wu Jiangxue nodded and left with the police car.
As Chu Ci turned around, she saw two kittens that had appeared out of nowhere, squatting side by side at the entrance of the residential building.
The two orange cats sat upright, wagging their tails, their round eyes fixed on her.
"Meow~" the chubby little sister meowed in a coquettish manner.
Then came the thinner little orange cat, "Meow~"
The two kittens stared at her with their big eyes, looking pitiful.
Chu Ci: "??"
Ten minutes later, she squatted down not far from a fish cake stall, blew on the fish cake in her hand to cool it down, broke it into small pieces and fed it to the two kittens.
"Meow meow meow~"
The younger sister ate while whimpering, and even tried to rub her mouth, which was full of fish paste, against Chu Ci.
"Never mind, never mind."
Chu Ci pushed its little head away.
"Let's skip it today, I don't want to smell like fish."
"Meow!"
My younger sister cried out in displeasure.
He turned his back to Chu Ci and continued eating the fish cake on the ground.
Chu Ci took the opportunity to touch its big tail.
The fish cake was quite large, and the two kittens ate more than half of it.
Chu Ci put away the remaining little bit of fish cake, saying, "This little bit is for feeding our black bean, so you can't have it."
Little Orange meowed obediently and rubbed its high-held tail against Chu Ci's leg.
After finishing their meal, the two kittens strolled off, and Chu Ci stroked Little Orange's head and asked:
"Wu Jiangxue is working overtime, how are you going to get home?"
The younger sister turned her head and meowed, signaling Chu Ci to follow her.
It walked ahead with a proud and imposing air, while Little Orange strolled along behind.
Chu Ci followed them for twenty minutes and finally arrived at a remote, abandoned amusement park.
Many of the rides in the amusement park have faded, and there are no streetlights here.
The lonely silhouette was shrouded in shadow, looking eerie.
Chu Ci wasn't too afraid; after all, when it comes to meeting a ghost, it's the ghost that should run away.
She patted her sister's tail. "You two are just playing here?"
My little sister proudly raised her head and meowed, her amber eyes shining like two little light bulbs in the darkness.
The two kittens circled Chu Ci's feet twice before trying to walk into the darkness.
Just as Chu Ci was about to speak, he suddenly heard a series of cat meows coming from not far away.
Amidst the noise, there seemed to be two faint screams...
Judging from the voices, it sounds like two women.
She frowned, stood up warily, and heard the cat's meows getting louder and louder.
Just as the younger sister and Little Orange were about to leave, they suddenly bristled and breathed into the darkness not far away.
Chu Ci subconsciously looked around for something that could be used for self-defense.
She had just found a handy stick, which looked like a broom.
Before I could even stand up, a series of ghostly wails and howls filled my ears:
"Master! Help! Help!"
A rustling sound came from the distant green belt, and a dozen or so stray cats suddenly rushed out.
Closely following behind them were Li Lecan and Xiaomin, who had disappeared for a long time.
The two of them, having gone through something, were now much weaker, their once solidified spiritual bodies now completely depleted.
The two ghosts ran and screamed, scaring the stray cats in the abandoned amusement park into scattering in all directions.
Upon seeing Chu Ci, the two of them ran over crying and quickly hid behind him.
"Master! A monster is chasing us!" Xiaomin cried out in terror.
Although Li Lecan didn't cry, she wasn't much better off.
The spirit was so faint it resembled cooking smoke.
Seeing the two people's miserable state, Chu Ci frowned deeply.
"Don't hide behind me, you guys run! They might be from the Hong Kong Paranormal Masters Exchange Association."
No...no!
Li Lecan's spirit was so faint that it was almost unrecognizable, and he was having a hard time speaking.
"It's...it's a cat!"
Chu Ci: "??"
She looked Li Lecan and Xiaomin up and down. "A cat, and it scared you two like this?"
Xiaomin quickly explained, "No! It's not an ordinary cat!"
She opened her mouth as if to say something, when suddenly the hissing of a pack of cats came from behind her.
Xiao Min trembled and quickly hugged Chu Ci, screaming, "Master!!"
Chu Ci shielded Li Lecan and Xiao Min behind him and went to look at the howling cats behind them.
Several black and white cats of varying sizes stood on the outermost edge, but instead of looking at them, they stared intently into the darkness, letting out threatening growls.
They're scared, but they don't run away.
They're not afraid, yet their screams are so eerie.
Chu Ci followed their gaze and saw the dark green belt move again.
Xiaomin was so nervous that her whole body was trembling, and her entire spirit was floating.
"It's here! It's here! The monster is here!"
"master!"
Li Lecan grabbed Chu Ci's arm and reminded her in a trembling voice.
"That thing is weird, it's chasing after me and Xiaomin and gnawing on us!"
"Xiaomin and I are so weak because it gnawed at us!"
Chu Ci: "..."
She gripped the stick tightly in her hand, her heart pounding in her chest.
It can even devour ghosts, what on earth is this thing...?
The green belt was swaying more and more violently, and Chu Ci decided to go up and take the initiative.
"Master, be careful..."
Chu Ci waved his hand, signaling them not to follow, and went over with the stick in his hand.
Just as I raised the stick, a faint, weak "meow" sounded.
A fluffy, black head popped out of the grass, its bright green eyes fixed on Chu Ci.
Meow~
Chu Ci was stunned when he saw that familiar cat face.
The little black cat, however, was very enthusiastic and tried its best to squeeze out of the green belt.
After finally emerging, the most eye-catching thing was the small scarf hanging on its black body.
The light blue scarf, barely the size of half a palm, hung on its tiny body, swaying as it walked, making it extremely conspicuous.
"Meow meow meow!"
Upon seeing Chu Ci, the black cat wearing a small blue scarf jumped up and hung on her pants.
Its antenna-like tail stretched taut as it climbed upwards with all its might.
Meow~
Li Lecan and Xiao Min closed their eyes and screamed.
"Ahhh! This is it! Master, don't be fooled by it!"
"We both became like this because of it!"
But Chu Ci didn't listen to them. Instead, she grabbed the little black cat and hugged it to her chest.
Meow~
The little black cat rubbed against Chu Ci's fingers, then easily climbed onto her shoulder, and jumped up to her head, taking the highest spot.
Perched on Chu Ci's head, it looked down at the group of cats and the two ghosts on the ground.
Chu Ci frowned, but did not pull the little black cat off.
Supporting its small body, he introduced it to Li Lecan and the other person:
"This is my cat, named Black Bean."
Black Bean: "Meow~"
Its eyes were bright green, the little scarf around its neck swayed gently, and its little tail swished back and forth behind Chu Ci's head.
The moment Black Bean called out, the group of stray cats that had gathered scattered.
Li Lecan and Xiaomin looked at Chu Ci and the little black cat on her head with complicated expressions.
Noticing their gazes, the little black cat stood up proudly, its newly grown little teeth as white as snow:
Meow~
But when Li Lecan looked at the little white teeth in its mouth, he suddenly trembled.
"Master..."
She pointed at the little black cat, speechless for a long time.
Chu Ci had no idea that Hei Dou had such great abilities, and he waved to Li Lecan and Xiao Min.
"Let's go back to the store and talk."
They, along with a cat and two ghosts, entered the shop, and Black Bean immediately took over the spirit communication table.
It lay flat on the table belly up, its eyes half-closed in contentment, its little black tail swishing back and forth.
It lazily stretched its body, "Meow~"
Chu Ci casually pulled up a chair and sat down, letting Li Lecan and Xiao Min sit on the spirit chair to recover.
However, the two ghosts stared at the little black cat on the table that had already started snoring and waved their hands repeatedly.
"No...no need, Master!"
The two embraced, their scattered spirits almost intertwined and tangled together.
"We...we're fine just standing here!"
Chu Ci: "..."
She stood up, scooped the snoring black bean to her side, and wrapped her arm around it.
"Sit down, or you two will really break up."
Seeing that the little black cat had its eyes closed and was using Chu Ci's hand as a pillow, showing no intention of attacking, the two sat down.
Chu Ci stroked the little black cat purring on her wrist, looking at the two people opposite her with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
"The black beans are only this small, how did they get you two into this state?"
"Master, don't let its small size fool you! It really eats ghosts!"
Li Lecan and Xiaomin looked worried and recounted what had just happened, one after the other.
The two of them were already a little afraid of cats, so when Chu Ci met Wu Jiangxue, they kept their distance.
But perhaps because of the presence of Wujiangxue, there are actually a lot of cats nearby.
No matter where they are, if they stand there for a while, they can see the cat hiding in the side, watching them furtively.
The two changed locations several times during this period, until they went further and further away and ended up at that amusement park.
Unexpectedly, I stumbled into the heart of the stray cats' territory and even encountered a little black cat that had become one with the darkness.
Li Lecan gestured wildly: "At that time, Xiaomin and I just stood there obediently."
She pointed to the little black cat that was sleeping soundly on Chu Ci's hand with its head tilted to the side, "This little thing suddenly darted out from the side!"
Xiaomin: "My first instinct was to reach out and catch it, but I didn't expect..."
She choked back tears as she stretched out her pale, almost transparent hand, on the verge of tears.
"It went right through my body and even opened its mouth to tear off half of my arm!"
Don't let her easy tone fool you; when her arm was ripped off, the pain was excruciating!
Li Lecan stood up and showed Chu Ci his spirit body, which had been scratched and torn to a pulp.
"It not only bites, it scratches! It used its claws to hook my body and shove it into its mouth!"
She was bitten and gnawed several times before she became like this!
Looking at the miserable state of the two people, and then looking down at the peacefully sleeping Xiao Heidou in his arms, Chu Ci felt a sense of doubt.
No wonder Little Black Bean wasn't popular with the cats; it turns out it wasn't an ordinary cat at all.
If Black Bean isn't an ordinary cat, then what is it?
She touched the small body of the black bean, unable to figure it out.
When Hei Dou was first rescued, it was a skinny little kitten.
But these past two days, he's either been drinking goat milk or eating shrimp, or being fed minced meat that his grandmother steamed herself.
In just a few days, it has turned into a black chicken wing rice wrap.
The kitten's belly was soft, and Chu Ci touched it.
Black Bean grunted twice and then simply lay flat in Chu Ci's hand, letting Chu Ci touch it as he pleased.
Seeing how completely dependent Black Bean was, Chu Ci's heart softened, and she became even more curious about what kind of creature it was.
During her silence, Li Lecan and Xiaomin, who were still in shock, had fallen asleep.
Their spirits were too weak and needed rest.
"Black beans."
Chu Ci gently called out to the chicken wing rice roll in her hand.
The only response she received was Black Bean's wagging tail and a soft "meow".
She touched the black bean's dark little nose, "What exactly are you?"
Black Bean: "Meow..."
I freely stroked the little guy's soft body, from the cat's ears all the way to its tail.
Then, stroking from her tail down to her two little ears, Black Bean remained completely still despite her harassment, only her little belly rising and falling.
Just as Chu Ci was enjoying himself immensely, his movements suddenly froze.
Her eyes widened as she realized something:
Shouldn't black beans be at home?! When did they sprout?! How did they sprout?!
The thought had barely formed when she heard her grandmother's anxious shouts.
"Aci! Aci!"
Grandma pushed open the door and came in, followed by He Lihua, who was panting heavily.
Her voice was panicked and breaking: "Aci! Black Bean is gone!"
Before he could finish speaking, a little black cat groggily lifted its head from Chu Ci's hand.
She was also wearing a small blue scarf, which she wore to avoid losing it.
Meow~
Grandma: "..."
She felt a sense of relief, followed by a surge of anger.
"Aci! You should have told me before you brought the black beans out!"
"Do you know how long Ahua and I searched? We turned the whole building upside down!"
Chu Ci: "..."
She stood up, looking aggrieved, "I'm innocent, Grandma! I found it outside!"
Grandma was taken aback. "You found it outside?"
She didn't think her granddaughter would lie about such a trivial matter.
He frowned, looked at the aggrieved Chu Ci, and then at the sleepy Little Black Bean.
Puzzled: "If it wasn't you, and it wasn't me, then who brought the black beans out?"
Just as Chu Ci was about to shake his head, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a furtive voice outside the door.
Upon closer inspection, a shifty-eyed, black-clad underworld official, carrying a soul-reaping rope, was peeking out from outside the door.
When he saw Chu Ci looking over, his eyes lit up and he quickly waved.
"Sister Chu, come quick! It's urgent!"
