    Chapter 5 "A Cat's Monologue"

    ————————

    It is a day, the sky is bright and the air is clear, and the wind is smooth.  At the beginning of the dawn, the warm sunshine once again poured on Longguan Station in Shaanxi, which is located at the junction of Shaanxi and Gansu.

    Let's start a new day, or a day with nothing new.

    As just as a unique cat "Your Highness" at Longguan Station!  I just let out a sloppy "meow" and strolled lazily to a place with the best light. After all, basking in the sun is a good habit that prolongs life.  Even if my lifespan is not as long as that of human beings, I still have to enjoy the quiet, comfortable and bright time in the limited time.

    Cut, don't look at me usually being lazy, I always look like I haven't woken up.  But in fact - I have the dignity and pride of a cat!  Hmph, who stipulated that the bounden duty of our cats is only to catch mice and be cute?  Most of the time, we are also maverick, arrogant and indifferent aristocrats.

    For example, myself, I often like to lie half awake under human chairs in the dining hall, and occasionally I can get a little bit of their food.  But even so, it doesn't mean that I'm open to all kinds of food.  Once I encounter some strange-shaped, ordinary-tasting food, I can ruthlessly refuse and stay away in front of the feeder.  I also admit that this is a kind of willfulness and selfishness, but But as a proud cat, I will never bow my head easily in front of anyone!

    However—Longguan, a quiet and leisurely place with a vast land and few people, seems to be the only "meow".  So I am lonely sometimes, and the human beings I often come into contact with live a fulfilling and regular life: they are basically a profession called "toll collectors", well, I am too lazy to go to the human world  get to the bottom.

    They are usually dressed in light blue shirts and black trousers, and those who go to the "driveway" have to wear a yellow-green "reflective vest".  I don't know where the most common lane is?  Just going there for a while has made such a mobilization, even more fanfare than a nobleman like me!

    In my eyes, the driveway is just a very wide road.  Sometimes a few cars zip through here and there: ordinary small cars, and huge ones that are as huge as monsters!  But I do have to admit that these vehicles are scary and weird, just like a black cat I used to know, let's call it "Big Black".

    Not long after that guy was stationed in Longguan, he was killed because he was too negligent when crossing the road. I also know that his death cannot be simply pushed on that human body.  After all, he had to "go to death" to swagger across the already dangerous highway in the dead of night. Even I, who was naturally proud, had to admit cowardice when faced with dangerous roads and iron-clad vehicles.

    A person who knows current affairs is a hero, and a hero doesn't suffer from immediate losses.  But that guy left me all of a sudden, alas, more or less a little melancholy.

    Since Dahei's sudden and long death, my life has once again fallen into the usual routine: either eating or sleeping.  Occasionally, on a whim, I catch a few mice to refresh my previous skills. After all-how can a cat not catch mice?  !

    In addition, those humans at Longguan Station are quitepretty doting on me.  I can often taste their variety of food, some meats are really delicious; but some strange, spicy things are still hard to eat!  As a sensitive person, I always smell the smell of food before I put my mouth, and observe its color carefully, because as a nobleman, how can I be as easy to dismiss as dogs?  If it's not to my liking

    Well, human beings, I am very grateful for your "tribute", but I can't be sorry for my fragile and picky taste buds.

    The days passed day by day like this, and it was another year of summer, and Longguan Station welcomed three new faces after a long absence.  AlthoughAlthough I am a little face blind, I am sure that these three new humans are something I have never seen before!  The first time I met the three of them was in the cafeteria, I saw that they were all dressed in army green clothes, slightly different from other humans.  But what amazed me the most was: their eyes lit up as soon as they saw me, it was just like the "shit shovel officer" that Dahei used to mention to me!

    ————

    "Meow meow meow, Ahuahua!"

    When that stupid and cute Dahei, who was bluffing and had no aloof temperament like our cats, was alive, my peaceful life was often stirred up by his noisy "meow".

    One time, it leaned directly in front of my ear and said loudly: "Please don't sleep now! I'm going to tell you a very novel term now! Meow meow!"

    "Well, tell me, meow." It was also summer at that time, and I was lazily??A peaceful life.

    Even in the face of these three newcomers, I can still lie at their feet naturally; I take a slow glance with my clear eyes, and beckon them to straighten my fluffy hair.  Of course, those who have never seen small animals are also very happy!

    In fact, capturing the favor of these three newcomers is a piece of cake for me, a "throb"!

    For example, when they were eating in the dining hall, I lay calmly and frankly at the feet of their chairs; one time I even surprised a boy who had just finished eating and was about to leave.  Well, if he accidentally stepped on me because he didn't notice my existence, I am really innocent!  Forget it, let's not engage in such dangerous games in the future.  Later, I was surprised to find that every time the new kid was ready to move after eating, he would deliberately look at his own feet Well, is this cute guy looking for me?

    Another boy is very popular with me, because he has fed me some food during meals before; and it tastes good, so I am more inclined to be close to him.  So one morning, when the humans at Longguan Station gathered in the yard in front of the office building for some reason; I couldn't hold back my natural cat-only curiosity, and I strutted closer to the boy's feet,  He raised his head and let out a soft "meow", and he also leaned over and stroked the colorful fluff on my back.  So I lay comfortably on the side, looking at these guys with searching eyes while enjoying the massage It's rare to meet so many people during non-meal time.

    Another girl seemed scared but wanted to get close to me.  Oh, it's really contradictory.  So one morning, when I happened to meet her in the yard, who was wearing a yellow-green vest and was about to go on the driveway, I slowly "forced" her to the edge of the garden, and walked around her trembling feet  After petting for a while, I raised my head to indicate that the flattered she could stroke my fur.  She was a little panicked at first, and then eagerly stroked my back, her movements were softer than other humans?  !  It's very interesting. After a long time, she finally let go of her initial cowardice and slowly enjoyed the leisure time between me and her

    However, after a while, I didn't see them again.

    It is estimated that they are only temporary visitors to Longguan, and my life has not been affected by their absence, but I have fallen into the loneliness and monotony of the past again.

    In addition, I also slowly learned the fact that Longguan Station will disappear soon.  Although to me, a proud cat, the reason is something I'm too lazy to know.  But when I think about leaving this place where I have lived for many years in the not-too-distant future, I still feel a little a little complicated.

    At that time, not only the three newcomers, but also the people from the past, and myself will have to step into a new place again.

    So where should I go?

    Where will they go?

    Can we meet again?

    Meow, a few years later, when time has already diluted the memory of gathering and parting

    ————

    Are they all old?

    Where are they?

    Those flowers, those years, those people

    Will everyone be safe, will they be well?

    ————

    This is a song that humans at Longguan Station often listen to.  After a long time, I am familiar with it myself, but of course I can't sing, after all, cat language and human language are not interlinked.

    Huh—as a cat, my eyes are actually a little wet?  !

    As if nothing had happened, I opened my eyes and looked up at the cloudless blue sky, intending to take back those few drops of crystal beads that should not overflow, and suddenly realized: In this world, no matter people or animals, we are all meeting each other  Parting, meeting in parting.

    Meow.
