Chapter 570: Mouse Catcher

"Oh, I know, I know, it's Uncle Yang's house, right? Who are you with?" Ji Ling smiled on the other end of the video.

"No one, just me. I just helped a customer find a cat. I searched all night and didn't even have dinner. I came to Uncle Yang's place to have a meal." Lu Jingxing wiped the table and put the phone on the table.

"I saw the cat-finding video you made by chance. It's amazing. Did you help many cats find their owners?" The two were busy these days and rarely had video calls. Sometimes they just called to report safety, and they didn't have time to talk about these things.

Lu Jingxing raised his eyebrows: "Of course, I'm in charge of chatting with the cats every day, haha, Xiangyu is the one who connects with the owners, but the effect is really good."

"I just feel strange, I was the one who asked you to open the pet shop, how come you are so powerful all of a sudden, the saying that the master brings you in and the practice is up to you is really true, I really just brought you in, I didn't expect you to be so enlightened, haha..." Ji Ling teased.

"This, I heard it seems like someone wants me to call the master?" Lu Jingxing also laughed.

"Call the master quickly, little apprentice, come..." Ji Ling sat cross-legged on the bed and laughed happily.

"Egg fried noodles, here..." Uncle Yang came over with a bowl of egg fried noodles with a smile: "Do you want a cold dish or a barbecue?"

"No, thank you Uncle Yang, I usually don't eat at night, such a big portion of fried noodles is enough for me, thank you..." Lu Jingxing replied to Uncle Yang politely.

"Okay, then you take your time to eat. If you need anything, call me anytime..." Uncle Yang's business is very good, but the couple is often too busy.

When he put down the bowl, he saw Ji Ling in the video. Uncle Yang waved to Ji Ling: "Girl, I heard that you were admitted to Tsinghua University. Is this BJ?"

Ji Ling smiled happily: "Uncle Yang, it's me. I'm at school."

"When will you come back? Come to uncle's place. Uncle will treat you to barbecue." Uncle Yang was also very happy to see Ji Ling.

"Okay, I'll visit you as soon as I come back next time." Ji Ling said sweetly.

"Okay, then you guys chat. I won't disturb the couple talking. Haha..." Uncle Yang laughed and walked back.

Lu Jingxing also smiled and nodded, wiped the chopsticks with a tissue, and Ji Ling smiled and said: "It looks so delicious. I really want to try Uncle Yang's cooking..."

"Next time you come back, I'll treat you to a meal. I was so busy last time I came back that I didn't accompany you well..." Lu Jingxing ate the meal in big mouthfuls and replied to her vaguely. He was really a little hungry.

"Keep your word, you eat first, I'm going to take a shower, and go back early after eating, I think you've lost weight..."

"Okay, go ahead... I'll go back after eating, good night..." The two hung up the phone.

Lu Jingxing finished in a few bites.

He sent Ba Mao back to the store, and when he got home, his brother and sister were all asleep.

He looked at them and saw that they were all sleeping soundly, smiled slightly, closed the door gently, and went back to his room. After washing up, he was about to lie down when he saw a letter on the pillow.

There was also an envelope with "Brother's Dear" written on it. He smiled when he saw it, it was Lu Chen's handwriting.

When he opened it, there was only one sentence: "Brother, the day after tomorrow is the weekend, can you take us to the zoo? Love your brother"

Lu Jingxing smiled, folded the paper and put it in the envelope. It was indeed a long time since I played with them. I will go back to the store tomorrow to make some arrangements, and try not to arrange the surgery the day after tomorrow, so as to satisfy the little guys.

The next day, he got up, but his brothers and sisters were still asleep. After the aunt came to cook, he called Lu Chen and Lu Xi up.

Lu Jingxing urged them to get up. They said that they must be sent by their brother today. Lu Jingxing smiled and agreed. He sent them to school and promised them to go to the zoo tomorrow. The two little guys were so happy that they jumped up.

When they got to the store, the employees were all at work.

Yang Pei was on vacation today, and Lu Jingxing came to the old store again.

When he arrived, there was no one in the hall. Someone was shouting in the backyard, and some other people were laughing. Lu Jingxing heard the sound and walked in.

"Bamao, catch it quickly, ah, don't come over..." Lu Jingxing came in and heard a girl shouting.

"What's wrong?" Lu Jingxing saw Xiao Sun standing at the door and stretching his neck to look inside.

"Brother Lu is here. That marble yellow caught a big mouse. It jumped east and west and refused to let go..." Xiao Sun looked at Marble Yellow and said to Lu Jingxing.

Marble Yellow is the orange cat with its head stuck in the marble that day. Everyone calls it Marble Yellow.

"Where did the mouse come from? How dare it be so bold? It's gambling with its life..." Lu Jingxing felt strange. They had so many cats here, but they had hardly seen any mice.

"Yes, it must have run in from the backyard and was caught by Marble Yellow..."

"Fufufu..." Ba Mao looked at Marble Yellow with a fierce look.

Marble Yellow stared back at it like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

Xiao Zuanfeng hadn't seen a mouse for a long time. Although he didn't want to fight with Marble Yellow for it, he also looked fully armed.

Lu Jingxing frowned, not wanting them to eat mice here.

Those who could run here might have taken medicine, otherwise mice wouldn't be stupid enough to run into the cat pen.

"Marble Yellow..." Lu Jingxing approached the corridor.

He waved his hand to let the employees move aside and not get too close.

If it let go, these people would probably scream in fear again.

When Marble Yellow saw Lu Jingxing coming, he let out a "meow..." and the big rat fell out of his mouth. The rat immediately resumed its movements and ran to the right.

All the cats nearby rushed over.

Marble Yellow reacted and grabbed it with one step.

It hadn't even run two steps when it returned to Marble Yellow's hand.

We have to help kill it, we can't let them eat it.

"Bring the broom, kill it..." Xiao Liu ran to get the broom.

Lu Jingxing walked towards Marble Yellow with the broom.

"Marble Yellow, throw it down, you can't eat it..." Lu Jingxing looked at Marble Yellow biting it tightly and was really a little worried.

This rat reacted too slowly, there must be something wrong.

Marble Yellow seemed to be an expert at catching rats when he was wandering before, so how could he let go of the meat in his mouth so easily.

"Marble Yellow, I'll change it for you..." Lu Jingxing took out the prepared canned food.

Marble Yellow saw the canned food and looked down at the rat's tail dragging on the ground. After thinking about it, he finally let go of the rat.

The mouse fell to the ground, turned around and prepared to run again, Lu Jingxing took the broom and swung it.

Before he hit it, the lion cat jumped down from the shelf on the right and pressed the mouse under its claws.

"Ah, alas, alas..." Lu Jingxing's broom almost hit the lion cat.

This is really...

Now everyone laughed, this is falling from the wolf's teeth into the tiger's mouth.

"Lion cat, give me what you can't eat..." Lu Jingxing opened his heart and shouted to the lion cat.

The lion cat "meowed" and grabbed the mouse tightly again, and retorted to Lu Jingxing: "Meow... I've been staring at it for a long time, and I finally got it. How about a box of cans too." After saying that, he didn't forget to look at Marble Yellow who was eating canned food.

Marble Yellow immediately squatted down, protecting the can with two claws "Wow wow wow..." While eating, he didn't forget to be fierce to the lion cat, as if he was afraid that it would come to steal its cans again.

Lu Jingxing looked at the lion cat and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Come on, Xiao Sun, bring a few more boxes and give them all a meal, otherwise one will beat me, the other will beat me, and it will never end..."

Everyone laughed when they heard what Lu Jingxing said.

Xiao Sun immediately ran in and took out seven or eight cans, opened them and placed them in front of the corridor.

"Okay, you all go eat the cans, and I will take care of the mice." Lu Jingxing smiled and waved the broom.

The cats rushed to the cans like a swarm of bees, and the lion cat also put down the mouse in its mouth and ran to the can.

Lu Jingxing quickly slapped the broom, and the mouse immediately stopped moving. He got the mouse out and arranged for someone to mop the floor again before he felt relieved.

Seven or eight cans were not enough to share, and the cats started fighting again soon. Xiao Sun had no choice but to take out a few more, basically one can for each cat, and finally it was quiet.

"Doctor Lu, a cat is here..." Xiao Sun just put the canned food out and ran in to call Lu Jingxing.

Lu Jingxing washed the broom and put it away, then came to the office.

The cat's owner is a couple. The cat is a rural civet cat, quite long, not as round as a blue cat.

The male owner smiled and introduced: "We have four cats at home, all stray cats we picked up. They rarely get sick, which is convenient for us. Basically, we don't spend much money, just basic vaccines, sterilization and so on."

Lu Jingxing followed his words: "Yes, if you don't get sick, you don't need a lot of money."

"Yes, he is studying for a doctorate and I am studying for a master's degree, but we also have salaries, haha..."

"Wow, you are all academic masters, so there is no great financial pressure, right, haha..." Lu Jingxing smiled at the bright smiles on their faces.

"Financially, it's not bad, anyway, most of the money is spent on the cats." The hostess smiled.

The male owner looked at the female owner and said, "I was studying abroad at that time. I was under a lot of pressure for a while. It was a cat from my neighbor's house that often accompanied me and helped me gradually relieve my stress. So after returning to China and settling down, I would want to keep stray cats when I saw them. I kept four cats without realizing it..." When the male owner said that he was under a lot of pressure, the female owner gently held the male owner's hand.

Lu Jingxing nodded. It is generally recognized that pets can comfort people.

"Its name is Lai Lai. It is the most naughty one in the family. It came to our house the latest. I found that it seems to have a lot of effort to eat recently." The male owner held Lai Lai to show Lu Jingxing.

Lu Jingxing opened Lai Lai's mouth, and Xiao Liu took the flashlight.

"Shine this side. Well, you can see that its entire gums are red. The back of the mouth is mainly hyperplasia and ulceration. It should be caused by a virus." Lu Jingxing pointed to the couple while looking at it.
