Chapter 2202 Adoption (two chapters in one)(1/2)
"Miss, you are a regular customer of our store. There is no business today. I will give you some more." The ice cream shop owner said with a smile.
"Thank you!" Jiang Lingyu thanked her, and then returned home while eating ice cream.
The scale of the power outage this time was much larger than before. Jiang Lingyu walked some way and looked into the distance, and found that there was still a power outage ahead.
"I'm going home now. The air conditioner at home can't be turned on. It's very stuffy. How about I go sit in a nearby park for a while and wait for the electricity to come on before going home?"
Jiang Lingyu thought for a few seconds and changed her plan temporarily.
He turned and looked across the street. There were many passers-by standing on the street chatting, and the cars on the road had stopped, so he didn't have to worry about being hit by cars when crossing the road.
He walked towards the other side of the street and passed through the gap between the two cars.
Jiang Lingyu came to the other side of the street and walked quickly to a nearby park.
On the way to the park, Jiang Lingyu heard some passers-by talking about the power outage.
"I just called my friend at the power supply bureau and said that they have sent people there to repair the problem, but there is no way to restore the power supply in a short time."
"What exactly happened? Did your friend tell you?"
"He doesn't know either, but he heard from his colleagues that two large-scale power outages occurred in a short period of time. This incident should not be a simple accident caused by aging lines."
"Could it be related to strange beasts?"
"It shouldn't be possible! This is inside the city!"
Jiang Lingyu paused for a moment, looked at the two passers-by who were chatting, and muttered to herself.
"The precautionary measures in the city are very strict. It should not be invaded by strange beasts and cause such a large-scale accident."
Continuing to walk forward, Jiang Lingyu came to the entrance of a small alley.
After passing through this small alley and walking forward for six or seven minutes, you can see the park.
Due to the power outage, the few street lights in the alley were all turned off at this time, and it was so dark that it was difficult to see the road conditions underfoot.
At this time, Jiang Lingyu took out a flashlight from the space weapon, turned it on, and walked methodically deep into the alley.
I bought this flashlight before for emergency use in the wild. Unexpectedly, it came in handy this time.
There are only footsteps in the quiet alley. Others may be a little scared walking in such a remote alley, but for Jiang Lingyu, there is no problem at all.
"Meow……"
Suddenly, a cat meowed loudly. Jiang Lingyu turned around and saw a big white cat standing on the wall of a family looking at her.
Suddenly there was such a cat looking down at him in the dark place, giving people a very scary feeling.
Jiang Lingyu looked at the big white cat standing on the wall and looked at it.
A few seconds later, the big white cat jumped down from the fence, ran to Jiang Lingyu, looked at Jiang Lingyu and barked a few times to please her.
"Forehead……"
Jiang Lingyu observed the big white cat in front of her. From its messy hair, she could tell that it was a stray cat and not raised by someone else.
"Are you asking me for food?" Jiang Lingyu asked.
"Meow..." The big white cat didn't nod or shake his head. He just looked straight at Jiang Lingyu and meowed from time to time.
Normally, Jiang Lingyu would see some girls feeding stray cats on the road. After thinking about it, she opened her space weapon, took out a pack of dried fish, opened it, and poured it on the ground.
"Meow..." The big white cat's eyes lit up when he saw the dried fish, and he barked excitedly, then lowered his head to eat the dried fish.
When Jiang Lingyu saw the stray cats eating so deliciously, she thought she was really hungry and came to beg for food.
When I lived in the spirit world before, I didn't have time to feed stray cats and other small animals.
Now that I have come to this world, although I have no legal status, my life is ten times better than in the spirit world, and I still have time to feed stray cats. It is quite happy to think about it.
Jiang Lingyu did not reach out to touch the stray cat, but fed it a bag of dried fish, then left and continued walking deeper into the alley.
The big white cat, which was feasting on dried fish, saw Jiang Lingyu leaving and raised its head to look.
After a while, Jiang Lingyu walked out of the alley and walked forward for six or seven minutes to the park entrance.
Due to the power outage, the air conditioners at home could no longer be used, so residents near the park came out of their homes to enjoy the cool air in the park, so there are many people in the park now.
Jiang Lingyu stood at the entrance of the park and looked inside, and suddenly she saw many children chasing and playing.
Many parents gathered around to chat, and the scene was full of joy and peace.
"Why are there so many people?" When Jiang Lingyu saw so many people in the park, she immediately didn't want to go in because she didn't have a legal identity. Besides not wanting to come into contact with investigators, she also didn't want to come into contact with other ordinary people.
Soon, Jiang Lingyu knew why there were so many people in the park.
"Forget it, let's go home! Since it's too stuffy in the room, I'll just enjoy the cool air in the yard."
Jiang Lingyu looked at the lively scene in the park, muttered a few words, then withdrew her gaze and started to return home.
After taking a few steps, Jiang Lingyu noticed something quietly following her behind her, so she stopped and immediately turned her head to look.
A white figure came into view, and the one following behind turned out to be the big white cat.
Jiang Lingyu looked at the big white cat in silence. At this time, the cat also stopped and looked at Jiang Lingyu without saying a word.
The two sides looked at each other for a few seconds. Jiang Lingyu continued to return home. After walking forward for a few minutes, she looked back and found that the big white cat was still following her.
"Why are you following me?" Jiang Lingyu asked the big white cat.
"Meow..." The big white cat meowed. The two parties couldn't communicate due to language barriers. Jiang Lingyu shook her head, then ignored the stray cat following her and walked home quickly.
"Click."
The iron gate opened, Jiang Lingyu walked into the yard, and then closed the iron gate.
I looked back and didn't see the stray cat following me.
When I walked into my home, I couldn't turn on the lights because of the power outage.
The house was dark, so Jiang Lingyu took out the flashlight again for lighting. After a while, he came to the yard with a pot of tea and sat down in front of the stone table.
"Meow……"
As soon as Jiang Lingyu picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, she heard a cat meowing next to her.
When I heard the sound, I saw a big white cat squatting not far away.
"Why did you come to my house?" Jiang Lingyu put down the teacup in her hand and said.
"Meow..." the big white cat meowed, tilting its head and looking at Jiang Lingyu.
"You don't want me to adopt you, do you?" Jiang Lingyu asked again.
"Meow..." The big white cat swung its tail a few times.
"I'm usually very busy, but I can't take care of you. You should find someone else to adopt you!" Jiang Lingyu said.
"Meow..." The big white cat stepped forward, came to Jiang Lingyu's feet, and rubbed its head against Jiang Lingyu's calf.
"Uh..." Jiang Lingyu was speechless by the stray cat's intimate behavior. She looked down at the other person without speaking.
After a while, Jiang Lingyu sighed, and then said to the big white cat, "You must obey me in my house. If you are dishonest, I will kick you out."
After saying that, Jiang Lingyu reached out and touched the big white cat's head, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but raise, revealing a happy smile.
"Meow..." The big white cat seemed to understand that he was taken in, and cried happily in response to Jiang Lingyu's touch.
…………
The next morning, the sun rose in the sky, and the golden sunlight tore through the darkness, dispelling all the darkness that had shrouded the earth all night.
The slightly quiet city gradually became noisy after the sun rose. The sanitation workers who were the first to go to work on the streets had cleaned the roads and were now getting off work one after another.
In the quiet bedroom, Jiang Lingyu slowly opened her eyes. He turned his head and looked towards the window, looking through the gap between the curtains at the sky in the distance.
It's another nice day today, the sky is clear and blue, without a single cloud.
"Meow……"
Suddenly a cat meowed in the room, and Jiang Lingyu was stunned for a moment. She quickly realized that she had taken in a stray cat yesterday.
Turning around, he saw the big white cat lying in front of the dressing table, looking up at Jiang Lingyu, who had just woken up.
Since Jiang Lingyu decided to take in the stray cat last night, she gave the cat a careful bath after she called.
The originally messy and dirty hair is now very smooth and clean, and the big white cat looks even more beautiful.
"Have a day off today." Jiang Lingyu muttered to herself.
Yesterday, she was thinking about going to find the second-level high-level alien beast that she saw in the short video today. The reason why she decided to take a day off now was entirely because of the big white cat she had just adopted.
Jiang Lingyu usually sees some short videos about cats. In one of them, stray cats are taken in and they have to be given a full body check to see if they are sick. Adopters who are capable of this process should still go through this process.
Jiang Lingyu planned to take the big white cat to a nearby pet hospital for a check-up after breakfast. Since it was her first time to go to such a place, Jiang Lingyu had to search for relevant introductions online in advance to avoid being in a hurry.
"Come here." Jiang Lingyu waved to the big white cat lying on the ground.
"Meow..." The big white cat stood up obediently, quickly ran to the bed, and then jumped up.
Jiang Lingyu reached out to catch the big white cat that jumped towards her, touched the cat's back, and said, "I will take you to the hospital for a checkup later. You have to be good."
"Meow..." the big white cat responded.
