Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 143 Sorrow upon Sorrow

Liu Junshu's daughter is named Ma Xiaomi.

Lin Ge, or rather, Xiao Guai before, was someone she adopted from who-knows-where.

This was an unexpected answer: Xiao Guai was Ma Xiaomi's pet, not Liu Junshu's cat.

The photos clearly show that Xiao Guai and Xiaomi have a very good relationship. Of the stack of photos Professor Liu gave Li Siyu, about 80% were of Xiaomi and Xiao Guai together; the two cats looked very affectionate and happy in the pictures.

Then, a French man named William suddenly appeared.

Handsome, charming, humorous, wealthy, and possessing an inherent French romantic aura, Ma Xiaomi was quickly seduced. She fell madly in love with this man's sweet talk, no longer as close to her family and pets as before.

As for Xiao Guai... I don't know why she is so resistant to William.

William visited Liu Junshu's school dormitory twice.

He was well-mannered, and Liu Junshu was not conservative in her thinking; she accepted William's relationship with her daughter on their first meeting. However, when William tried to deal with Ma Xiaomi's cat as well, he unexpectedly encountered a cat that would turn on him in an instant. Xiao Guai bit his index finger hard, causing it to bleed profusely.

Then… Liu Junshu watched in disbelief as her usually obedient and sensible daughter suddenly flew into a rage. Without hesitation, she grabbed a mop and smashed it hard against the cat, injuring Xiao Guai so badly that she ended up in the hospital.

This is the origin of the scar on Ringo's forehead.

Although Ma Xiaomi apologized to her mother and beloved pet after calming down, Liu Junshu began to wonder if there was a problem with her daughter's relationship with William.

She tried to persuade her daughter to turn back, but Ma Xiaomi was already bewitched by William's sweet words.

In her eyes, the perfect William would have no problems whatsoever, especially since he had already proposed to her. The two of them would live happily under the watchful eyes of the Holy Church and the Holy Spirit, and her mother only needed to bless her.

As for her beloved cat... I'm sorry, she can only choose one between William and Xiao Guai.

Ma Xiaomi and William went to France and got married.

From then on, Xiao Guai lived with Liu Junshu. The old woman and the cat got along very well. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, from the daughter's marriage to the comfort the cat provided for the old woman. Until six months later, Ma Xiaomi suddenly returned to China with William.

She made a request to Liu Junshu that surprised the old woman: she asked her to give the results of her life's hard work to her only daughter so that she could take them to France.

The mother and daughter started arguing.

Then... just as the old man, out of love for his daughter, was about to give in a little, Xiao Guai, who had been clinging to Ma Xiaomi's feet and excitedly cuddling with her mistress, suddenly bit William again!

Just like before, Ma Xiaomi went berserk again. She beat Xiao Guai wildly until it finally couldn't take it anymore and chose to run away.

Liu Junshu, meanwhile, was fully awakened by Xiao Guai's screams. She resolutely refused Ma Xiaomi's request, even ignoring her and running off to find the cat, leaving the woman who had been roaring and threatening to sever their mother-daughter relationship to leave again, swearing and cursing…

The story ends with an ellipsis.

Lin Ge lay silently on the lawn in the police station courtyard, listening to Li Siyu recount what she had learned from Liu Junshu.

He didn't know what he was feeling at that moment. Anyway, listening to this story, Lin Ge didn't recall anything from the scene.

Aside from a strange sense of closeness to Liu Junshu, he felt absolutely nothing for the woman named Ma Xiaomi. The happy photos at his feet didn't move Lin Ge at all; they were like someone else's story.

For Lingo, this was just the end of a story—a story about a person's relationship with a cat, from happiness to betrayal, a tragedy in the traditional sense, nothing more.

Xiao Guai is Xiao Guai, and Lin Ge is Lin Ge; he understands this very well.

At least in terms of their souls, the two are completely different. Lin Ge can find empathy in Xiao Guai's story, but that's all.

"Mimi... I didn't know that something like this happened to you in the past!"

Li Siyu looked at the cat lying motionless on the ground with a sorrowful expression, as if she dared not look back on the past. She guessed in her heart that the cat must be in great pain at this moment.

"Feeling bad my ass!"

Lin Ge rolled his eyes!

The only value of the story is that it gives Mimi, the police cat at Zhanghe Police Station, a specific and traceable identity, and allows its special abilities to be reasonably explained by a biology professor. That's all.

For Lin Ge and the Zhanghe Police Station, it was enough that they knew through this incident that the cat hadn't appeared out of thin air.

Should we really sympathize with that foolish woman?
Stop kidding! Let her die!

Lin Ge stood up and lazily stretched.

Seeing Li Siyu's wistful expression after reading a tragic story, Lin Ge rolled his eyes and decided to go back to the cat shelter to catch up on sleep. He'd been a mascot at the university all day, and strangely, it was more tiring than chasing a hundred criminals.

“Mimi! Professor Liu told me to go visit her when you have time.”

While tidying up the photos, Li Siyu said to Lin Ge, "The old lady is all alone and really needs companionship. Her husband has passed away, and her daughter is in this state now. Only you can give her some comfort."

"Stop joking! The old lady just caught a cold a few days ago and is recuperating at home, so she looks a bit lonely! There are far more people around her than you can imagine, and the number of students who care about her could circle Zhangzhou University twice over—you can't even count them all!"

Lin Ge saw through Li Siyu's plot to lure him to Zhangzhou University.

This brainless, intellectually worshipping foolish woman has been bought off by Liu Junshu.

snort!
With a flick of his tail, Lingo slipped into the cafeteria.

He planned to look for some better-tasting food in the cafeteria before dinner time. Li Siyu always only gave him bland, lightly salted food, making his mouth feel incredibly tasteless.

"Hey, Mimi, don't come in!"

The chubby chef in the cafeteria spotted Lin Ge and quickly and nimbly jumped over to stop him.

"You've got some nerve!"

Lin Ge glanced at the guy. How dare he block the way?

"Mimi, my little darling! Stop fooling around. The cafeteria isn't a place for you to act recklessly. Last time you were so naughty that you turned over the dried fish I had in the basket, and then Instructor Zheng saw it, and as a result, the whole basket of whitebait was wasted."

The chubby chef tried his best to persuade the cat, unable to bear seeing it continue to waste food.

"Nonsense! I was just trying to help you flip the salted fish over that day so it would dry more evenly! That bastard Zheng Mingxing complained that dried fish was unhygienic, what does that have to do with me?"

Lin Ge glared at the fat chef and rejected his slander.

But the chubby chef refused to give way, still wearing a pair of extra-long plastic gloves, as if afraid that Lin Ge would lay a hand on him.

Lin Ge's mood worsened, and he turned and stormed off.

However, he didn't leave the cafeteria area. Instead, he went to the small room where the chefs rested in the side cafeteria. He found the fat chef's treasure in the room, unzipped the fishing rod bag, dug out all the messy equipment inside, threw it on the ground, and then left cursing.

Hmph! You can take your time cleaning up.

After taking his revenge, Lin Ge, with a wicked sense of humor, imagined the fat chef struggling to squat on the ground with his protruding belly, and a wicked smile made him feel much better.

Sure enough, it's only when you do bad things that you feel happy.

Thinking maliciously, Lin Ge returned to the cat house and saw that the lame cat dared to lie on his special section of the cat tree. He immediately found an excuse to beat up the lame cat as well.

The three little ones were so frightened that they fell silent and quickly tucked their tails between their legs and hid behind their mother.

Then... Lin Ge tormented Bei Bei again. While rubbing the dog's ears, he shouted things like, "You've been abandoned, the Baimiao Police Station doesn't want you anymore," leaving poor Bei Bei only able to lower its head and whimper, showing a very aggrieved expression.

"What's wrong with Mimi today? She's acting like a bully?"

Zhang Yong took a break to smoke a cigarette and happened to see Lin Ge acting crazy. This cat seemed to find fault with everything and wanted to cause trouble for everyone, so Zhang Yong quickly kept his distance, afraid of becoming collateral damage.

"Is such that……"

Li Siyu explained what had happened that day to Zhang Yong, and then showed him the photos that Professor Liu had given her.

"What a piece of trash!"

Zhang Yong threw the photo away without hesitation, but he remembered the incident. He was now extremely grateful that Mimi had been doing righteous things when she was young; otherwise, the loss of state-owned scientific research achievements would have been far too severe.

He flicked his cigarette butt in annoyance, and the ash fell, completely obscuring the woman's face in the photo.
