”Where?”
”Wow, it really is a cat I thought it was a life-like stuffed animal”
”Mom, I want to look at the cat!”
”Stop squishi+ng over here It's just a cat”
”Move over, let me see it”
At this tie, cellphones weren't 'smart' like they would become in ten years People didn't have their heads buried down on public transport Instantly, all the people ere bored on the bus were looking at Zheng Tan whose head was showing fro
With the red backpack as a backdrop, the black cat head was very eye-catching
Zheng Tan felt on display, like a monkey at the zoo
The bus driver looked outside then looked back to ahead of hiers the bus was about to restart again But no one listened to him
The light finally turned green The ht a final glance at the bus The bus was overtaken by a suy as eating an orange was too busy looking out of hisand banged his head on the seat in front of him
Zheng Tan felt better
Outside don, there were less traffic lights and Wei Ling could pick up some speed
The area wasthe third ring road Zheng Tan could tell frons around him that this area was to be de the environovernment planned to move all the factories away There was a lake in this area and developers were already targeting the soon-to-be free spaces around here
Wei Ling parked his motorcycle next to the side door of a factory He looked around and took out his phone to make a call
The factory in front of the was all that was left The factory had relocated recently Only the pictures on the walls hinted to what used to happen here
Wei Ling called Walnut, who still did not pick up However, Wei Ling was sure he was here The factory doors were shut, so he had to jump over the wall
”Follow behindOf course, cover ht times if you could…actually never ”
After instructing Zheng Tan, Wei Ling ju it seem like a simple task
Zheng Tan jumped on to the wall and looked around He came here out of pure curiosity and he didn't need to cover his tracks like Wei Ling He was cat after all; people weren't wary of cats There were plenty of strays around here anyway He saw quite a few on their way here A black cat on the asn't anything new
Zheng Tan had taken off his collar before leaving the house He didn't look anything different from a normal cat Even if he was spotted, the person who spotted hie, instead of suspecting anything
The factory was elass and bricks on the floor, flyers that were turning yellow and production waste The s in the air The deserted factory looked desolate
Zheng Tan followed Wei Ling He heard sounds— sounds , like the sound so beaten Luckily, it didn't appear to be made by Walnut
Fifty yards fro Tan heard the a plan to wait for the person in the warehouse ahead of the him
Zheng Tan looked over to the warehouse It had fes, and all of them were shut He would probably make a lot of noise if he went inside Was Walnut in there? Thefrom there
The people behind the ere oblivious to Wei Ling's presence They were too focused on the warehouse door to notice anything else Orwas too well hidden It was difficult to notice him even when he moved quickly
As Wei Ling hid in the shadows, debating whether to take care of theTan noticed the exhaust fan on warehouse wall
It wasn't blocked by barb wire like the s and doors, and he could just about squeeze through the gaps
Should he do it?
