1377 Difficult to Express How I Truly Feel (1/2)

After the grandma had left, Zhang Zian's line of sight fell back onto the cardboard box.

Judging from all the evidence within this box, this kitten is likely abandoned. This is very common and all too common. It may be because of various reasons, like someone in the family is pregnant, a guest is allergic, can't afford it, or doesn't want to raise it. Most of the pets that were abandoned are swept out of the house. In contrast, the kitten at least had a cardboard box to shelter it from the wind and rain.

However, the person who raised it before may have been a child who was put under the pressure of his parents to get rid of it and then kindly prepared a box for the kitten. However, the child forgot to put a few holes in the cardboard box.

If it is discovered a little later, it may suffocate inside.

There is nothing in the carton except for the cat.

Zhang Zian groaned and looked around.

At noon, people stayed at home to eat, and there were very few people on the street.

He remembered the words of the grandmother. Some people abused cats nearby. If this kitten was left alone, it is likely to fall into the hands of those people. Even if it didn't encounter this situation, it may eventually escape from the cardboard box, then get knockdown by cars when crossing the road. That will be like that unlucky little boy... the chance of being taken home by a good-hearted person is not high.

If he brings it back... there seems to be a problem.

Whether it has been vaccinated or dewormed is unknown. Considering that it was abandoned and not bred, the answer is likely to be negative. However, If it is brought back to the pet store, the cat lice or parasites on it can be transmitted to the other cats. What can he do when that happens?

His family is living well but cannot extend it to all. For the pet, poultry and livestock industries, it is necessary to be very cautious when bringing in external animals.

The pet shop is the center of his parents' life, and he can't afford the risks.

But...

”Have I seen you before?”

Zhang Zian touched his chin and fixedly stared at it. He suddenly blurted his thoughts out.

The kitten certainly didn't answer and looked around ignorantly.

”It's strange to say. I don't know if I have been sleeping too little or am too tired recently. When I come home this time around, I saw several familiar faces. Every time I see them, I have this feeling in me, as if a voice buried deep in my heart, saying: Ah, I seem to know this person, isn't that who...”

Anyway, there's no one around, and he does not need to hurry home. Thus, he simply talked freely.

”It's obviously familiar faces, but I can't remember their names them anymore. It's like... I have been seeing them for a long time, but thinking for a while, I don't think so. This is because women change a lot as they grow older. In a blink of an eye, they would have grown a lot taller. With two to three years passing, they will be beyond recognition. So it's impossible for me to have seen them from a long time ago... even if I indeed had seen them a long time ago, it must be because they have had some interaction with me and therefore I still remember them. However, I don't even have any impression of these interactions...”

After stopping, he smiled and laughed. ”Is this the so-called Déjà vu? Because even though I look at them and recognize them in some way, they do not seem to remember me and treat me as if I am a total stranger, that type that they have never met before... including that old grandmother.”

He turned his head and stared at the back of the grandmother riding her tricycle.

”Not only people but also places. Some places, I should be there for the first time, but it seems like I have been there before...”

For example, when he opened the menu of the Teahouse In Hidden Fog, he felt like he should have been more surprised. However, he seems to have expected it in his heart and guessed that it would be very expensive.

”So, this should be my own illusion.” He poked his own temple with his fingers. ”I have thought of many possibilities, such as there being a tumor in my brain that has affected my cognitive ability... ...but I have just had a physical examination not long ago, and it is not very likely. This is not a Korean drama in any way...”
