meow if you are happy

Chapter 106 Xiao Xiu is missing!
1 minute passed, 2 minutes passed...

Knowing that a new customer came to the door, Chi Yan did not even answer her.

Those flames of hope were completely extinguished, and Xiao Xiu finally recognized the fact that she was really dispensable to Chi Yan.

Her heart seemed to be torn apart by something.This is the first time Xiao Xiu has felt this way since he was a child.

Xiao Xiu put his hand on his heart and said to Chi Yan word by word: "Chi Yan, I don't like how you are now. You show indifference, alienation, and don't care about me at all. I don't like it." like."

Chi Yan didn't know how to respond to Xiao Xiu's words. He lowered his eyes and held tightly the book he just took off the bookshelf.

——He couldn't look back, and he couldn't open his mouth, for fear that if he wasn't careful, all the "like" and "reluctance" that couldn't be hidden in his eyes would come out.

The new guest held the selected book and looked at the two people in front of him with some embarrassment: "That..."

Xiao Xiu lowered his head and wiped his tears. When he raised his head again, a smile was already on his face: "Hello, are you paying?"

The guest nodded and quickly handed over the chosen book.

……

Xiao Xiu and Chi Yan didn't speak again until they returned home in the evening. After arriving home, Chi Yan went to the kitchen to make dinner, while Xiao Xiu went straight to his bedroom uncharacteristically.

Chi Yan prepared dinner and stood in front of Xiao Xiu's door, hesitating for a long time before reaching out and knocking on the door: "Dinner is ready, on the table."

What responded to him was Xiao Xiu's silence.

Chi Yan knew that what he did in the bookstore during the day really made Xiao Xiu sad.

He didn't know what to say, so he finally just added: "Heat it in the microwave when you're hungry."

After speaking, Chi Yan turned around and returned to his bedroom. He had no appetite at all.

Until Chi Yan washed up and got ready to go to bed, the door to Xiaoxiu's bedroom was not opened again.Chi Yan was a little worried about Xiao Xiu. He stood at her door and lingered for a long time, extending his hand and then retracting it. After a few rounds of stalemate, he returned to the room.

Chi Yan did not take a rest soon, but stood behind the door, listening to the movements in the living room with his ears raised.It wasn't until very late that he heard the sound of the bedroom door being opened, and his hanging heart was relieved at this moment.

-At least she's willing to go out to eat.

The cooked meals are in the microwave, and dried fish and snacks are placed on the dining table.Chi Yan knew that it would be awkward to go out at this time, so he sat silently on the edge of the bed. When he heard the door of Xiaoxiu's bedroom closing again, he lay down on the bed with peace of mind.

"Meow meow meow……"

"help me--"

"what--"

The shrill meow of a cat, mixed with a familiar girl’s voice…

Chi Yan got up from the bed sweating profusely. He had another nightmare.In the dream, the cat's voice was mixed with Xiaoxiu's voice. I don't know why. It was obviously just a dream, but the feeling was very real.

Chi Yan hurriedly put on his slippers and ran towards Xiaoxiu's house: "Xiaoxiu, Xiaoxiu!"

He stood at the door and knocked for a long time, but did not hear Xiao Xiu's response.

"Take a break?" Chi Yan put his ear against the door, trying to hear clearly what was going on inside.

One minute passed and there was still no sound coming from the room.

After getting no response, Chi Yan pushed open the door.

The neatly folded bed, the slippers placed... there was no sign of taking a break anywhere in the house.

"Take a break!" Thinking of the somewhat real dream just now, Chi Yan was completely panicked.He went to the living room first, then looked under the sofa, and even rummaged through the flowerpots on the balcony.

——At this time, he still held on to the fantasy, hoping that she would just turn into a cat and hide in a corner of the house and fall asleep.

"Xiao Xiu!" Chi Yan walked around the house several times, but did not see Xiao Xiu.He took out his mobile phone and quickly dialed Xiao Xiu's mobile phone number. After the "beep beep -" sound, a mechanical and cold female voice came, "The number you dialed is currently unanswered..."

Chi Yan hit him again, and he vaguely heard the sound ringing near the sofa.Chi Yan walked over and took out the mobile phone that Xiao Xiu had forgotten in the corner of the sofa.

Chi Yan rummaged around the house again, and after confirming that Xiao Xiu was not at home, he quickly changed his clothes and went out. Before going out, he didn't forget to leave a note for her on the table.

"Call me when you get back!"

——Chi Yan put the note and his phone on the table in the living room.

Before he went out, he took another bag of dried fish and beer and placed them next to the table.In this case, as soon as Xiao Xiu comes back, he will definitely see the note and mobile phone as soon as possible.

Chi Yan quickly went to Pochi Bookstore. On the way there, he thought that maybe he just got up too early during the break and went to the bookstore earlier.As a result, when I arrived at Pond Bookstore, I found that the front of the bookstore was empty - there was no Xiao Xiu at all.

Chi Yan searched everywhere he could find it. He even went to the park in the middle of the street that Xiao Xiu liked before. He knew that Xiao Xiu often went there to feed stray cats.

Still no sign of Xiaoxiu.

Chi Yan decided to call Xu Zihao: "Is Xiaoxiu at your place?"

While he was on the phone, the morning news was being played on the big screen across the street. The female host looked at the camera and said word by word: "This is already the 12th case of animal cruelty and killing this month. The methods of cruelty and killing have been... Gradually escalating, the last two cases are obviously more cruel..."

Chi Yan could no longer hear what else the host said on the screen. All he could think about was the host's words: "This is already the 12th animal cruelty and killing incident this month..."

"Chi Yan, what's wrong?" Xu Zihao couldn't hear the voice on the phone for a long time, and he was a little worried, "Is Xiao Xiu missing? Did you call? Did she go out to buy food?"

Xu Zihao asked a series of questions, and Chi Yan didn't know which one to answer: "I searched them all, but I didn't see her."

"you say……"

Before Chi Yan finished speaking, Xu Zihao also thought about it. He shook his head repeatedly: "No, don't think about it. Xiao Xiu must have had some fun and lost track of time. Just wait."

Xu Zihao hung up the phone and began to search for the adopter's contact information recorded in the rescue store.

He remembered that the man who brought the kitten with Xiao Xiu was called... Lin Mo, to Lin Mo!
The call was quickly connected, and Xu Zihao asked anxiously: "Is Xiaoxiu at your place?"

"No, what's the matter?"

"Hello, I'm Xu Zihao from the pet rescue center. It's like this. I have something to do with Xiao Xiu right now and I can't contact her, so I want to ask her if she went to your place to see your cat?" Xu Zihao finished explaining. After hanging up the phone, he called Chi Yan again. "Not at her friend's place either."

"She..." Chi Yan told himself not to think about the worst and calm down.

"Call the police." Chi Yan said and prepared to go to the police station.

"Wait a minute." Xu Zihao stopped him in time, "Xiao Xiu is not from the human world, and the police station does not have any information about her. When the time comes... let's contact Ming Ming first to see if there are other ways to find her. It's the police after all."

Xu Zihao's words reminded Chi Yan. After hanging up the phone, Chi Yan immediately called Qin Mingming and told him about Xiao Xiu's disappearance.
