C144 (1/2)
By the time we had settled the case, it was already past ten in the evening. It was already late, and most of the police had already left, leaving me, Bai Nuo Xin, Father Bai, and Yang Zi behind.
We were about to leave when Zhao Manzhi came out and asked us to stay. She wanted us to have a meal here, stay the night, and wait until tomorrow to thank us for finding out who killed her father.
I had a discussion with Bai Nanxin. It would take us about two and a half hours to get back to the school from here. It was too late, so we decided to stay here for the night and return tomorrow.
The White Father and Yangzi still had to go back to the police station to deal with matters. After dinner, they left and did not linger any longer.
At this moment, it was already 11.30pm. In this huge villa, there were only five people left: Zhao Manzhi, Zhao Long, Xie Yanglong, Bai Nanxin, and me.
Because of the Zhao Jie case, the villa was filled with a gloomy atmosphere. Everyone was in low spirits and did not communicate with each other. When I finished my shower, I went to bed.
To my surprise, Zhao Manzhi arranged for me to be opposite Zhao Jie's room, while Bai Nanxin was placed next to me, which was also the room opposite Zhao Manzhi's room.
For some reason, I was so sleepy today that when I went to my room and dried my hair, I fell asleep immediately.
In less than three minutes, I was completely asleep.
In a trance, I felt myself floating in a black liquid, warm as hot water in a bathtub, and I swayed slowly in the water, like a baby in a cradle.
At this moment, a faint ray of light suddenly appeared, stimulating my eyes. I slowly opened my eyes and raised my hand.
I looked at my hand and was stunned for a moment. Then I immediately cried out, ”Ah!”
My hand was covered in a thick red-brown liquid! This liquid was like rotten meat sauce, with a disgusting and unpleasant smell!
This smell was the smell of the rotting corpse inside the wall!
I quickly stepped on my legs to get up. At this moment, I discovered that beneath my feet, there was a large patch of red-brown colored viscous liquid! And my body was soaked in this disgusting liquid!
What was going on?
”Meow!”
A cat's cry suddenly echoed in the air. This sound was extremely strange, as if it was a low moan from a grave. It wasn't loud, and it wasn't clear, but it was very real, real to the point that it was like a gust of cold wind.
I began to tense up, my heart pounding like a vibrator.
Damn, could it be that the black cat really came back to seek revenge …
I had a premonition that this would not be that simple!
As I was thinking this, I slowly turned my head around and saw a black cat's head, larger than a bucket, above my head. Its black fur was covered with a thick reddish-brown liquid, and the sticky liquid on my feet was flowing down from this black cat's body! His green eyes were rolling back and forth, looking at me as if I were a mouse.
When I saw this situation, I immediately groaned in my heart, oh my god, this is the tempo of becoming cat food!
I hastily ran, but at this moment, the viscous liquid beneath my feet suddenly turned into glue and stuck my feet to the ground!
I tried to pull my leg out, but no matter how hard I tried, my leg just couldn't break free!
”Meow!”
The big black cat looked at me and slowly lowered its head and sniffed me with its pink meatball nose. The long mane on its temples rubbed against my face like a brush.
I bitterly smiled and said after a long time, ”Brother Mao, the person who killed you was not me. We have no enmity with each other, so please let me go.”
The black cat rolled its eyes and looked at me curiously. After a long moment, it meowed again, then lowered its head again. Then it opened its mouth and moved closer to me.
I looked up and saw its hellish mouth. It was pale, and its lips were trembling.
Damn, was it really going to be eaten by the black cat like this? I don't want to be cat shit...
I squeezed my eyes shut, afraid to look at the black cat.
But at this moment, I felt a warm and moist sensation on my face. Opening my eyes, I saw that the black cat was using its tongue to lick my face.
When he looked at the black cat again, he found that there was no killing intent in its eyes. I immediately calmed down and heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the black cat didn't intend to eat me.
”Meow!”
The black cat looked at me curiously again and barked.
I awkwardly smiled and said, ”Brother Cat, are you hungry? If you're hungry, then go catch a mouse …”
The black cat meowed again before lowering its head to look at its two front legs. It wanted to lift them up, but when I looked down, I realized that its feet had also been trapped by the thick brownish-red liquid.
I froze, wondering where this disgusting reddish brown liquid had come from. Why would they imprison me and this black cat here?
Before I could understand what was happening, I noticed that the reddish brown liquid beneath my feet had begun to flow to the feet of the black cat, and then slowly to the body of the black cat.
”Meow!” The black cat let out a pained cry, struggling to get rid of the red-brown liquid, but to no avail.
”What's the matter with you?” I stared blankly at the black cat. In the blink of an eye, the black cat was wrapped up by the red-brown liquid, just like dumplings with skin wrapped around dumplings' stuffing.
The reddish brown liquid ran all over the black cat's body. There was nothing under my feet. I realized that I could walk now.
At this moment, I looked up and saw that the brownish-red liquid was slowly seeping into the black cat's body.
Not long after, the liquid completely seeped in and disappeared, as if it had never appeared before …
I was extremely puzzled and tried to ask the black cat, ”Are you alright …”
”Hiss!” ”Meow!”
The black cat looked at me and its face suddenly turned ferocious. It bared its two brown fangs, as though a starving wolf had seen its prey.
I immediately felt that something was wrong and decisively ran away!
But at this moment, the huge body of the black cat jumped up as its two sharp claws swept over like lightning!
I felt a cold breeze blow against my back. Not good! If he was hit, how many pieces would he be torn into?
