Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 351 The Cat Army
"what!"

Dean felt a flash of cold light pass before his eyes, followed by a sharp pain on his face. He couldn't even open his eyes due to the pain, and could only cry out in pain while wildly waving his arms around.

While being pinned to the ground, Zheng Lei seized the opportunity to kick Dean off her and frantically got up. But before she could even stagger to her feet, her ankle was grabbed again, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground.

She was exhausted and had no chance of escaping Dean's pursuit.

"Ouch!"

Ringo roared angrily once again.

Even after I launched the attack, this guy still dared to bully the girl? He simply doesn't respect the police cat, and he doesn't care about me, Lin Ge, or the law!

Seeing that Dean seemed unarmed, Ringo charged forward again. He no longer cared whether the guy posed a threat to a cat; he just wanted this bastard to pay the price he deserved to go to hell!

‘Stab it! ’

The stiff down jacket couldn't stop Lingo's sharp claws. It barely protected Dean's body, but it also allowed itself to be torn to shreds by the cat's claws. A large tuft of duck feathers flew out from the tear, catching the eyes of the cats watching the spectacle.

"hiss……"

Dean let out a scream as he felt a powerful force slam into his arm, followed by a sharp, piercing pain. Incredibly, the cat possessed immense strength, managing to knock him over and topple.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zheng Lei kicked Dean hard in the thigh, making his eyes widen in pain.

But this wasn't the end. Today, Lin Ge was determined not to hold back. Before Dean could even struggle to turn over, he jumped onto Dean's back without hesitation and began frantically scratching. The neck, a vulnerable and unprotected area, was Lin Ge's primary target.

"Ahhh! Help!"

Dean felt as if his neck was about to be severed, so he quickly bent over, covered the back of his neck with his hands, and screamed loudly.

"You can scream your lungs out, but no one will come to save you!"

Ringo continued his relentless attack, quickly tearing Dean's hands until they were covered in blood. However, he still held back a little and didn't kill him; otherwise, a cat would have been the perfect target for a murderous attack, as the throat was so close at hand.

"brute!"

Zheng Lei, having caught her breath, didn't choose to run away but joined the attack without hesitation. She stood up and kicked, first the thigh, then the buttocks, and several times she almost hit vitals.

With the human and cat working together, Dean was completely unable to resist.

"Woo!"

He was no longer able to escape; his throat bobbed, but he couldn't make a sound. In excruciating pain, he could only curl up, clutching his head and squeezing his legs tightly together to avoid further blows.

"Huff... Waaah, you beast!"

With tears in her eyes, Zheng Lei took two steps back, then ran up and kicked again, causing Dean to groan. The girl's fierce stance startled Lin Ge, who stopped attacking. She continued relentlessly searching for a weapon, seemingly intent on killing Dean on the spot.

"Meow?"

Baka Cat didn't know what had happened, only that the threat had disappeared. Seeing Zheng Lei looking around curiously, it curiously moved closer to her leg and rubbed its head against her.

With that one touch, Zheng Lei's heart melted.

The anger and fear slowly subsided, replaced by lingering apprehension and resentment. She quietly looked at the cat at her feet, then looked up at the other cats eager to join in, and suddenly tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"Woooooooo..."

With a lump in her throat, Zheng Lei couldn't hold back her sobs any longer. She squatted down and pulled the Baka cat into her arms, burying her face in its body, sobbing uncontrollably, her whole body trembling.

"Woo?"

The Baka cat was so frightened that it froze completely, wanting to struggle but inexplicably too afraid, and could only look at Lin Ge for help.

"Let her hug you, it's not like you'll lose a piece of flesh."

While continuing to beat Dean, Lingo turned around and gestured for Baka Cat to behave.

To be honest, this is exactly the time when the girl needs comforting, and it's great that this baka cat can come in handy. What Lin Ge fears most is that the girl is immature and might panic and run away or do something else, adding extra trouble to the situation. Fortunately, this girl is strong and doesn't seem likely to deny it later or let Dean off the hook for the sake of her reputation, allowing Lin Ge to continue teaching this black beast a lesson in peace.

"Meow?"

The fluttering down attracted the yellow cat's curiosity. It first glanced at the poor, struggling cat being held by humans, then used its paw to rake at the duck feathers on the ground. Unexpectedly, Dean's struggle startled it, and without a word, it swung its paw at Dean.

"Hmm..."

A sharp pain shot through Dean's ankle, and he screamed in agony as his eyes widened.

However, this game attracted even more cats. Whether it was the other black and white cats and the two orange cats from the university, or other cats that had been roaming the nearby alleys and had come to watch the excitement, they all seemed to have discovered an interesting toy. They all ran over from the surrounding area, curiously scratching at Dean's body. If he resisted, they didn't hesitate to paw or bite, then tore his down jacket open further, pulling out more duck feathers.

Two large orange cats, mimicking Ringo, sat on Dean's back, their heavy bodies pressing down on him so he couldn't move. Realizing that any movement would result in a beating, Dean simply pretended to be dead, letting the cats do whatever they wanted with him.

At this point, Lin Ge actually had some free time.

After all, it's impossible to actually kill this bastard; he's already learned his lesson. Besides, there's the law, the police, and even the inmates waiting for him afterwards! Everyone despises rapists.

"Thank you... thank you all!"

Seeing Lin Ge slowly walk towards her with his big eyes, Zheng Lei, who had calmed down a bit, quickly thanked him.

She didn't know what was going on with these cats, but the way they huddled together gave her a sense of security. Even the warm body heat of the Baka cat helped to soothe her cold body, slowly dispelling the chill and despair.

Zheng Lei reached out to pet Lin Ge, but Lin Ge dodged her hand. She wasn't angry; she just looked at the other cats still playing 'games' with Dean and felt a strange warmth in this winter.

The orange cat, tired of playing with the duck feathers, simply sat on Dean's back, crossed one leg, and began licking its own rear end. The yellow cat successfully tore a large hole in Dean's down jacket and curiously poked its head inside, scratching and prodding. Whenever Dean dared to struggle, it wouldn't hesitate to swat at him. After a few swipes, Dean calmed down, successfully trapping itself inside the down jacket, puffing up like a little ball inside, pleading for help and struggling desperately.

What an idiot!

Lin Ge watched speechlessly as the blond-haired man poked his head out of the hole on the other side, but because the hole was too small, he could only squeeze his head out while his body couldn't get out.

On top of a nearby trash can, a cat, having grown tired of playing, was leaning against the edge, searching for food inside. Suddenly, all four of its legs slipped at the same time, and the cat fell into the trash can with a 'thud,' taking quite a while to struggle its way out.

"Meow!"

It let out a pitiful cry to Lingo, then lowered its head and quickly licked its own fur.

"Fool."

Lin Ge was speechless; the presence of these guys had made the atmosphere ridiculous.

But Zheng Lei gradually relaxed completely because of the cats' various amusing behaviors. She rubbed her eyes to wipe away her tears, then blew her nose and burst into laughter.

"Thank you so much! Really... really... thanks to you all, I really didn't know..."

She seemed to be in a much better mood, especially looking at the clueless bastard on the ground, she felt as if these cats were sent by God to save her.

She even recognized some of them as senior cats who often roamed the school. Heh... it seems quite natural for a junior to be protected by seniors. She just wondered what kind of background the big cat leading the group had.

"Crackling..."

Dean gritted his teeth, furious and enraged by the sudden turn of events. The frustration of his lustful desires being thwarted, coupled with the humiliation of being beaten up by a group of cats, made him feel particularly terrible. The girl had escaped their grasp, and the next likely outcome was a double whammy of calling the police and going to jail. He absolutely had no intention of sitting idly by and waiting to die; he had to get out of there immediately. He was willing to kowtow to that old geezer if necessary; he absolutely could not afford to be imprisoned.

So he patiently waited for his chance, until Lin Ge went to Zheng Lei's side and the other cats relaxed their guard. Then he suddenly threw the fat cat crouching on him off, scrambled to his feet, and ran away. "Ah!"

Zheng Lei gasped, startled by Dean once again.

But the next second a white light flashed, and Lin Ge slammed into Dean's back, knocking him to the ground again. This time Dean fell even harder, his face sliding several meters across the concrete, completely dazed and unable to get up.

"Trying to run? You little bastard, I've been watching you the whole time!"

Lin Ge scoffed dismissively. How could he possibly let his guard down against this guy? Perhaps an ordinary cat would take what just happened as a joke, but sorry, Lin Ge was a police cat!
"Ah! Oh! We can't let him get away, we have to call the police!"

Zheng Lei realized what was happening and quickly reached for her phone.

"Ow!"

Lin Ge stopped Zheng Lei from doing so.

It's best to handle attempted rape quietly, keeping it a secret from too many people. Calling 110 (the police emergency number) might get police, but there's no guarantee the officer is an acquaintance, or that the arrival of police sirens won't escalate the situation. If Zheng Lei's story gets out at school, it will have a very negative impact on her. Even if she's not forced to transfer schools, she'll likely be constantly gossiped about for a year or two.

Therefore, Lin Ge chose a better method. This time, he wore a collar, not forgetting the trouble caused by not wearing one last time.

Under Zheng Lei's curious gaze, Lin Ge first blocked the phone screen to prevent her from dialing 110, then turned the dial on the inside of the collar twice and dialed Zhang Yong's phone number.

As for why they didn't contact Nie Guoqiang... this area is under the jurisdiction of Longquan Police Station, not Nie Guoqiang's. Zhang Yong was temporarily transferred to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, allowing him to act in the name of the Municipal Bureau, which made things much easier.

"Hey?"

Soon, Zhang Yong's weak voice came from the collar. I heard he was being trained quite harshly at the city police station; I wonder if it fulfilled his dream of becoming a criminal investigator.

Seeing Zheng Lei's surprised gaze, Zhang Yong continued rambling on the other end of the line: "Mimi, what do you want from me at this time? Let me tell you, it's the New Year and everyone's having a hard time. Can you just leave me alone to bother Lao Nie?"

"Who?"

Another voice came from the other end of the phone, and Lin Ge recognized it as Yang Xiaotong.

Hey, Zhang Yong is off today?
Moreover, it's rare that both husband and wife are free, and it's a rare occasion that they can sleep in the same bed at night.

So Lin Ge hesitated, feeling that it wouldn't be good to disturb him at this time.

"Mimi? Has something happened?"

But soon, Zhang Yong's vigilance as a police officer made him sense Lin Ge's unusual behavior. His tone quickly became serious, and Yang Xiaotong beside him also stopped talking.

"Ouch."

Lin Ge called out softly, deciding to leave the choice to Zhang Yong himself.

He soon heard the rustling sound of clothes being put on on the other end of the line, and vaguely heard Zhang Yining asking her father where he was going. Soon after, he heard the door open, and Yang Xiaotong added, "If you're back early, buy Yining a box of 0.38 refill cartridges. Black ones, preferably Chenguang; Deli ones tend to run out of ink. Of course, if you're back late, let me know, and I'll see if I have time to prepare a late-night snack for you."

"Well."

Zhang Yong simply agreed and then hung up the phone.

"Mimi, who is he?"

Zheng Lei listened with curiosity and patience until the call ended. Then, she couldn't help but sized up Lin Ge and cautiously asked, "You wouldn't let me call the police. Is this person your master? Is he a policeman?"

"The owner of the fart is just a poop scooper."

Lin Ge pursed his lips in annoyance, but still accepted Zhang Yong's favor. In fact, the people in the institute were incredibly accommodating to him in this regard; whoever received his call would rush over immediately without asking why.

Damn police officers' sense of responsibility! They never seem to think about going off duty or taking a break.

Lin Ge sighed, and seeing that Zheng Lei was once again entangled with the Baka cat and the big orange cat, he turned his attention back to Dean, that bastard.

After suffering two defeats, the guy became much more obedient. Knowing he was no match for this monster cat, he resigned himself to his fate and lay motionless on the ground. His down jacket had been torn into shreds and no longer kept him warm, making him shiver. Of course, this kind of guy didn't deserve any pity, so Lin Ge pretended not to see it and let the yellow cat stubbornly continue to approach Dean, insisting on crawling into his tattered clothes.

"Go away!"

Dean waved his hand lazily and lay on the ground, sulking. Seeing Lin Ge looking up at the alley entrance, he secretly took out his phone from his pocket again.

"court death!"

A cat's paw appeared out of nowhere, swatting the phone away and simultaneously striking Dean hard across the face. Three deep, visible bloodstains appeared, but unfortunately, they quickly disappeared into the dark skin.

Another interesting thing is that several pedestrians at the alley entrance saw the cat squatting in the alley.

But Dean was dressed entirely in black, and his clothes were also dark, so no one noticed that there was a living person lying on the ground. Dean had initially wanted to shout, but after being scratched by Lin Ge again, he became quiet and lowered his head to whimper.

Perhaps thinking about the terrible future that was about to come, this bastard actually started wiping away tears.

Lin Ge ignored him.

This kind of person doesn't deserve any sympathy whatsoever.

About twenty minutes later, Zhang Yong finally arrived, albeit late. He parked his car directly on the side of the road and hurriedly drove towards the location while keeping an eye on his phone's GPS.

His location was a bit off, and he almost took the wrong turn. But eventually, a cat that seemed to be floating in the alley caught his attention. When he went over to take a look, he found that the yellow cat was actually perched on the head of a dark creature.

In the corner next to the person and the cat, a girl squatted on the ground, holding a black and white cat in her arms. The black and white cat was still struggling desperately, but it could not break free from the girl's strength. It cried out in despair to another cat next to it, its tail swishing back and forth.

And who else could that cat next to us be but Mimi from our own police station?
"So, what exactly is going on?"

Zhang Yong walked into the alley, puzzled. Looking around, he found there were many cats nearby. The black lump of coal lying on the ground was tattered and looked like a poor wretch who had been bullied by the cats.

"what!"

Upon seeing the person approaching, Zheng Lei quickly stood up. Unfortunately, she had been squatting for too long and almost stumbled, which finally gave Baka Cat a chance to escape.

"Hello... hello..."

Zheng Lei didn't know Zhang Yong's identity, but seeing Mimi's calm demeanor, she guessed that he was a good person, so she greeted him reservedly.

Zhang Yong's eyes swept over Zheng Lei. Her clothes were dirty, her hair was messy, and her face was covered in tears and scratches. It was clear that something had happened.

Then, considering that her own cat had notified her and the unknown creature on the ground, she could roughly guess what had happened.

Although he didn't know if the black man on the ground was a foreigner, since it was one of his own people in trouble, he couldn't ignore it. So he closed his eyes and opened them again, revealing a kind yet serious expression, and said, "Hello, student. I'm Zhang Yong, a police officer from Zhanghe Police Station, and also this cat's colleague. Can you tell me what happened? And this guy on the ground, he must be the one who bullied you, right? Can you tell me exactly what happened?"

"Oh, really a policeman! A colleague? A cat?"

Zheng Lei didn't have time to answer the question; instead, Zhang Yong's way of addressing Lin Ge aroused her suspicion.

"That damn police cat at Zhanghe Police Station! Lazy, willful, and misbehaving, it's always causing trouble for us unlucky cops! You probably don't know, but this guy is the boss at the station! Don't even mention me, who in the entire station hasn't been bullied by it?"

Zhang Yong pointed at Lin Ge and chuckled as he made a sarcastic remark, which calmed Zheng Lei's tense mood in just a few words.

When I first learned Zhang Yong's identity, I was nervous and worried, afraid that this would make me a laughingstock and the subject of gossip at school. But now, looking at Zhang Yong, I suddenly feel incredibly at ease. Such a witty policeman, he'll definitely think of me, right?

Without further ado, Zheng Lei slowly recounted to Zhang Yong what had happened that day, starting with the school's floodlit sports field.
