957 The Orange Tabby Locked in the Bronze Sparrow Spring (2/2)

There was a straw mattress with an orange tabby squatting on it. Beside it was an aluminum alloy food basin and a water basin.

In terms of the average size of a cat in the Forbidden City and the average size of the orange tabby, the orange tabby was not fat––it could even pass as slim.

Its head drooped listlessly, like it was not awake yet. It heard Wen Li's call and looked up at her. From his gaze, Zhang Zian could tell that it knew her, but it soon dropped its head again.

The room was dark, and the cat was quite far away. It was hard to tell the exact situation, but Zhang Zian could see transparent and shiny water dripping out from the corner of its mouth.

Wen Li introduced it, saying, ”This is Zhuang Zhuang. It has been here since before I started my job. It's quite an old cat; we are not sure of its exact age. The last two days, it has become very lethargic…It drips saliva from time to time. We thought that maybe it was due to its age.”

After Zhang Zian entered, he kept standing at the doorway, blocking the entrance.

Fina's natural curiosity made it want to enter the room to take a look, but because he blocked the entrance, it could not enter. It did not want to lower itself by jumping in through the window, so it kept pulling on the corner of his pants from behind, wanting Zhang Zian to move.

Zhang Zian put one hand behind him and kept waving in the dark, signaling to the elfins not to follow him in and to play in the yard.

He was not a professional veterinarian, but he had quite a good understanding of the common illnesses in cats and dogs. With one look he could tell that the cat's condition was not right, and it could be that it had some kind of infectious disease. If the elfins followed him in, they could be in danger of being infected.

Wen Li wanted to walk in to carry Zhuang Zhuang out into sun, but Zhang Zian stopped her. ”Wait, it could have an infectious disease,” he said, and pulled out a pair of disposable plastic gloves from his pants pocket.

It was not like he could tell the future, so how could he have prepared disposable gloves? The gloves were a gift from breakfast place outside the Forbidden City so that customers' hands would not be covered with oil while they ate. Because he wanted to feed the elfins, he had bought more breakfast. The stall owner thought he bought for more than one person, so he gave him more disposable gloves. After he used one pair, he was reluctant to throw the other pairs away, so he slipped them into his pocket. He did not think that he would actually use them…

Now that he thought about it, the capital was very particular. Even breakfast stalls thoughtfully provided disposable gloves, letting the white-collared workers and the CBD elite be able to eat their breakfast without having to go through the trouble of washing their hands. Of course, the prices were also very high. After all, wool came from the sheep's body.

Wen Li did not know the details, but upon seeing that he actually brought disposable gloves with him, she admired him even more. She thought in her heart that he was indeed a professional and different.

The calico cat, Snowy, was also following behind them. Zhang Zian had Wen Li stop it so it wouldn't come in the room.

He slowly got closer to Zhuang Zhuang.

Zhuang Zhuang did not welcome his arrival at all. It shook its head in annoyance, spitting out its tongue and salivating everywhere. Because of its exhaustion, it could not resist any further or escape, which also showed that there was something wrong with its nose; it could not smell Fina on his body.

Zhang Zian extended its hand to the back of its neck, and he unexpectedly grabbed it from the back, picked it up, and half-forced it to open its mouth. He saw a large ulcer in its mouth and on its tongue.
