Meow Ba

Chapter 374 James' Neighbor
Times are tough, but we still have to live on.

Although there are requirements in front of him, fortunately, senior sister Heimi is still kind. Before challenging the King of Wisdom Zoo, Ron has a day to rest.

Of course, after temporarily forgetting about continuing to challenge Brother Pingtou the day after tomorrow, and having a good night's sleep, Ron was naturally taken by James the next morning, and went to the usual performing arts place.

However, going out this time was a bit different. When James walked out of the welfare room with Ron on his back and turned to close the door, he happened to see the tenant next to him doing the same thing.

It was a girl with curly blond hair and a slim figure.

"Hi, hello~"

Recently, he drank potions on time, and James’ drug addiction has stopped for a long time. With Ron as his companion, his income from performing arts has doubled several times, and his body has naturally grown some flesh—this gave James a little ability to talk to people. courage.

Therefore, when he saw that his neighbor was a girl, James felt that it was necessary to say hello and get to know her, so he tidied up his clothes a little, and James put on a smile and raised his hand.

"Hi, hello~"

"I'm James next door~"

Hearing James' greeting, the girl next door who closed the door turned around, and immediately both of them couldn't help but look surprised.

"why you?"

"why you?"

The girl who turned around was recognized by Ron. If it weren't for her, Ron might not even be able to enter the pet hospital's operating room, let alone perform surgery.

Of course, James also knew this girl, she was Betty who used to work as a nurse in a pet hospital.

"Hello, James, I'm Betty, we should have met."

"I didn't expect you to live here too."

A hearty smile bloomed on Betty's face, like the sun just rising in the east, making James' cheeks warm and dazzling.

"Well, I... this is... the welfare housing I applied for."

"I...I should go, see you tonight..."

Not knowing how to talk, James stammered a few words, then turned around and ran away, leaving behind a distressed figure.

And such bumps made Ron, who was standing on James' shoulder, reach out his claws and pat James' head in dissatisfaction.

"Meow~"

Brother, your mount is not very good~
However, the back of James fleeing in embarrassment caused Betty to cover her mouth and let out a chuckle suddenly.

"Pfft, what a strange person."

…………

"Fat cat, I didn't expect her to live next to her."

"What should I do in the future?"

Walking quickly, James grabbed his hair vigorously until he could no longer see Betty, and said to Ron on his shoulder - a soft meow was the reply.

"Meow~"

Go up!
Don't be shy, just do it!
James may not have noticed, but in Ron's view, because of the good drug rehabilitation process, James has gained weight recently, with curly long brown hair, sparse beard, and a worn-out guitar on his back, he naturally carries a With the same decadent charm, it is easy to attract girls.

So in this meow, Ron carried a strong sense of encouragement.

However, before James could understand the meaning of Ron's cry, a skinny hand suddenly grabbed James' sleeve—the people around immediately frowned and began to move away from where James was standing.

"Hey, James."

"Long time no see. It seems that you have been doing well recently."

"What a cute little guy."

Turning his head, what appeared in front of James was the best Buzz he had ever had, enjoying paradise time together.

However, during this period of time, James gained a lot of weight, but Buzz became thinner and thinner. The face that should have been full of youthful collagen tightly wrapped around the skull, and the eyes were sunken. .

"Buzz, why are you here?"

Turning his head and looking around, looking at the eyes of the people around him, James took Buzz's hand from his sleeve and asked with a frown.

"I see you, you pass by here every day, carrying a guitar and bringing a cat."

"I dare not approach, I am afraid to disturb you."

With his waist bent, Buzz said something he didn't believe, and his eyes rolled up and down—Ron, who was squatting on James' shoulder, immediately found that all the places Buzz looked at were James' pockets.

Then, Buzz finally expressed his purpose of holding James.

"However, I'm so hungry now that I haven't eaten for days."

"Can you give me some money?"

"Let me go get something to eat."

"..."

Silently looking into Buzz's eyes, James was fighting inside - after meeting Ron, he had gradually moved away from the circle he used to hang out with Buzz, but looking at Buzz's emaciated body and pleading eyes, James In the end, I couldn't bear it.

He reached into his pocket and took out a handful of notes.

But before he could count clearly, Baz stretched out his trembling palm and snatched the banknotes.

“Must go to buy food!”

"Remember, absolutely, never change the medicine!"

Grabbing Buzz's hand firmly, James said to him almost roaring, and Buzz nodded with joy, brought the banknote to his mouth and kissed it lightly.

"thanks, thanks!"

"I promise I will never buy medicine, really!"

"thanks, thanks!"

"Goodbye, James!"

Watching Buzz run away quickly, James sighed and turned to look at Ron.

"Fat cat, do you think I did something wrong?"

"Buzz will definitely spend more than half of his money on medicine."

"Meow~"

I think so too~
Complying, James lifted Ron off his shoulders—Ron was a bit heavy, and James needed to switch hands occasionally.

After hugging Ron, James stroked his hair - he felt lucky, if he hadn't met this fat cat, he would probably still be with Buzz now.

Then at this time, it might be himself who rushed out to ask acquaintances for money.

"The car is here."

"Let's go~"

Soon, they walked next to the tunnel bus stop, and after waiting for a while, James and Ron got on the bus and headed towards the usual place.

Then there was a day of playing and singing. When night fell, the exhausted James took Ron back to the welfare room—but the lights in the next room were not on, which made James a little uneasy.

And the next morning, James couldn't wait to open the door early in the morning, and immediately saw a smiling face like the sun.

"Morning, James~"

"Good morning, Betty."

Looking at the smiling face opposite, a smile slowly bloomed on James' face.

And just as the two looked at each other, there was the sound of a police car roaring in the distance. A police car drove out of the crowd and stopped under the overpass not far from the welfare house.
