Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 437 The Cat That Makes You Laugh

This is all Lin Ge can do regarding the Wei family matter.

Wei Yixiao is out of danger, and Wei Li's studies and life are somewhat secured, which is enough. Besides, his salary has basically been donated, so with a sigh and saying, "The wind blows the eggshell away, the money is gone but the person is at peace," Lin Ge put the matter aside.

In the following days, occasionally when the five kids came to the police station to play, one of them would be absent. When asked, bystanders learned that the absent one had taken Wei Li home. The steps to her rented apartment remained a major obstacle; she still needed help getting home. So the five kids took turns taking Wei Li to and from school, while also complaining that although their principal had agreed to their request to let Wei Li attend school temporarily, he had also made many demands on them in exchange.

Nie Zhuangzhuang was appointed as the leader of the morning exercise team. Every morning during the exercise, he was chased aggressively from behind by a bunch of bastards, running like a dead dog.

Zheng Jiacheng and Xie Zaiqi were responsible for cleaning the stairs from the first to the seventh floor every day, while Hu Miao and Zhang Yining were responsible for cleaning the library. They worked very hard every noon and no longer had the relaxed rest time they used to have.

Of course, they don't regret it.

Meanwhile, Lin Ge has resumed his normal life at the police station.

From before the Lunar New Year until now, he seemed to have been busy with other things, and he almost forgot what normal life at the police station was like. So these past few days, Lin Ge has been making the most of his time to remember, and has finally recovered to the routine of eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, taking naps when he wakes up, wandering around when he's bored, teasing the little hawksbill turtle, beating up the little tiger-striped and snow-clawed tiger-striped, and then fleeing in panic under the resentful gaze of the mother hawksbill turtle, and so on.

Incidentally, the rascal quickly became familiar with the three little guys.

The main problem is that the friendly snowclaw budgie climbs up the tree every day to bother the bird, and doesn't give up even when blocked by the cage. Sometimes it just lies on top of the cage, staring curiously for a whole day, which has made the mischievous bird familiar with it.

Despite being startled by stray cats that came to eat its food and greet it every day, the bird gradually grew bolder after a few days, once it was certain that these cats posed no threat.

Although it was never allowed to leave its cage, it dared to meow loudly at the cats below, attracting their attention with its chattering and then flapping its wings to scare them away in a panic. Whenever this happened, it would laugh triumphantly, and when the cats climbed up the tree to seek revenge, it would simply play dead, stubbornly waiting until its enemies lost patience and left before slowly getting up and pricking its own feathers.

And when another cat appears, it will repeat this process.

So, the mother hawksbill turtle and her family, who had been staying at the police station, along with their money tree, became the first cats to understand what kind of despicable creature this scoundrel was.

And it must be admitted that the cunning bird is very clever.

Even when Lingo got annoyed by its noise and climbed the tree, jumped onto the cage, and opened the cage door, the mischievous bird stubbornly refused to go out. Even if Lingo forgot to close the cage door one night, leaving it open all night, the bird would only peek out from the doorway, resolutely refusing to step out of its free world. And when a strange cat came the next day, it would cleverly close the cage door with its beak before starting to provoke and tease the cat under the tree.

until one day……

The snowclaw tiger burrowed inside.

That morning, Lin Ge was woken up by the little hawksbill turtle pushing its head against him. He was still half asleep and didn't know what was going on, but he saw that the little hawksbill turtle looked very nervous. When it saw that Lin Ge was awake, it quickly ran outside, then turned back at the door and meowed, urging Lin Ge to go out and check.

"what happened?"

This was the first time Lin Ge had ever seen the little hawksbill turtle so anxious. Usually, it was so calm and composed that it didn't seem like a young cat, but rather like an elegant princess.

So Lin Ge curiously got up and followed the little hawksbill turtle outside.

Looking up, I was completely dumbfounded.

Incredibly, an extremely large tuft of fur appeared in the birdcage that originally belonged to the cheap bird, and was now stuck tightly inside.

The cramped cage was so confining for the cat that the furry creature could only curl up into a ball, completely immobile. Its body was pressed tightly against the cage bars, so much so that some fur and flesh were squeezed out. The tabby stripes on its fur blended seamlessly with the bars, making it look like an American prisoner in a uniform. However, the cell was far too small for it; it couldn't even move or struggle.

The cat occupied more than 80% of the space in the cage, leaving only a small space at the top for a bewildered, mischievous bird to stand. The bewildered bird cautiously stepped on the snow-clawed tiger's head, slowly moving forward, but no matter what it did, it couldn't escape the tiny space.

Inside the cage, the snowclaw budgie struggled to raise its head, its large, bell-like eyes occasionally meeting the beady, small eyes of the scoundrel, causing the scoundrel to emit even more panicked and confused cries. It flapped its wings, trying to get away, but the flapping of its wings startled the snowclaw budgie, causing it to quickly close its eyes, its whiskers trembling as it tried to bury its head in its belly…

"How...how did this guy get in there?"

Lin Ge stared in disbelief at the birdcage above his head, realizing for the first time that cats really are a very unscientific fluid animal.

Putting aside the size of the birdcage, just considering the cage door, which is less than a third the size of the Snowclaw Tiger's face, how it managed to squeeze in is a miracle.

But the snowclaw budgie managed it! Not only did it get inside, it packed the cage completely. Because its tail was stuck in another section of the cage door, it was stuck, unable to move forward or backward, and couldn't even back out.

"Meow!"

Smelling Lingo's scent, the snowclawed budgie cried out pitifully for help. It struggled desperately, shaking the cage violently, which startled the shrewish bird above its head, causing it to squawk incoherently.

On the tree trunk next to the hook at the top of the cage, the little tabby perched on the tree, watching the scene curiously. It didn't do anything foolish, but it was startled by the bird's flapping, and then patiently continued to use its claws to pluck the feathers squeezed out by its brother in the cage.

Lin Ge quickly climbed up the tree, and this time he could finally see the Snowclaw Tiger's face. The poor thing's face was all scrunched up, and its whole body was twisted in an exaggerated way. There was even a bird that would occasionally hop onto its nose, cawing and making the Snowclaw Tiger meow even more dejectedly.

It's obvious this guy didn't just crawl in. Judging from his exhausted state, he's been struggling in the cage for a long time.

"Tsk! It's a good thing you didn't kill that bastard bird."

Lin Ge sighed and carefully lowered his upper body onto the cage. He tried to disassemble the cage, but found that it wasn't pieced together; every wire was welded shut. To rescue the Snowclaw Tiger, one would either need extraordinary strength or completely destroy the cage.

"Are you a genius? How did you even get in there?"

Lin Ge sighed, knowing that he would have to find someone to help solve this problem. Besides that, he also had to consider the bird's accommodation. It was so cheeky and loved to provoke cats; could it really survive without a cage?

Looking at the sky, it wasn't time for his shift yet. Although he felt sorry for his colleagues working the night shift, Lin Ge had no idea what would happen if he kept the snowclaw tiger-striped tiger inside.

So he quickly jumped down from the tree and ran towards the duty room.

Halfway through, I passed the steps at the end of the yard and found the mother hawksbill turtle squatting there expressionless. She seemed completely unconcerned about the snowclaw tiger's unfortunate situation; even the baby hawksbill turtle knew to seek help from Lingo, but the mother didn't budge an inch.

Lin Ge glanced back at the money tree under the tree, which was still staring blankly upwards. This godmother seemed to be more worried about the snowclaw tiger than the mother hawksbill turtle!
"Oh dear! Unlucky kid!"

Lin Ge sighed, stopped thinking about it, and quickly went to find someone to help.

Upon entering, Lin Ge discovered that Zhao Zhigang was on duty again last night. The guy was fast asleep, slumped over the table, with drool even dripping onto his arm. He wore a lewd smile that left Lin Ge speechless, seemingly having a sweet dream.

"Stop dreaming, get up and party!"

Lin Ge punched Zhao Zhigang on the nose with his claw.

"Woo~"

Zhao Zhigang woke up with a start, covered his nose, and screamed.

Seeing the disdainful look on the cat's face, he was even more speechless. The cat lowered its head, slammed it against the table, and stretched out its arms and legs, refusing to move an inch.

"Ancestor, don't wake me up! I finally managed to get to the crucial part of my dream..."

"What crucial part? A wet dream?"

Lin Ge was stunned for a moment, then remembered that Zhao Zhigang didn't have a girlfriend, let alone a wife! Of course, now was not the time to talk about that; he had to hurry up and rescue that stupid cat from its cage, you bastard!

Lin Ge pressed his claws against the back of Zhao Zhigang's head and slapped him again.

At this moment, Zhao Zhigang was fully awake.

He looked up, sighed, and rubbed his face vigorously with both hands. Zhao Zhigang said helplessly, "Grandpa, what's wrong? Do you need a ride later, or do you need me to help you buy something? Just tell me, and I'll definitely do it."

"Bullshit! I have Li Siyu, I don't need your help to buy things!"

Lin Ge glared at Zhao Zhigang with disdain, then jumped off the table, walked to the door, and turned back to give Zhao Zhigang a urging "Awooo".

"They're here! They're here!"

Zhao Zhigang stretched and stood up, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

To be honest, it's not comfortable to sleep sitting up like this, not to mention he had to go out on two calls last night.

"What happened?" Feng Yi asked, rubbing his eyes as he walked out of the next office.

There's a sofa in his office; if he's not busy, he can cover himself with a military overcoat and lie down for a rest. At Zhanghe Police Station, the duty office is also tacitly designated for auxiliary police officers on duty to rest; on the contrary, regular police officers, frankly speaking, absolutely do not have the privilege of lying down to sleep.

"The devil knows!"

Zhao Zhigang shrugged, but still followed Lin Ge.

Upon arriving at the police station compound, Zhao Zhigang immediately noticed the enormous clump on the tree trunk. He blinked in disbelief, then turned to look at Feng Yi, before bursting into laughter, clutching his stomach.

"Haha...wait...wait, what is this?! Holy crap! I can't take it, I'm dying of laughter! Mimi, did you call me here to see this? How can your kid be so funny, hahaha~"

"Pfft~ Hehehe..."

Feng Yi, standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh; it was the first time he'd ever seen something so funny.

Especially when the snow-clawed tiger heard the noise behind them and awkwardly turned its head, revealing its pitiful expression, Zhao Zhigang and Feng Yi burst into laughter, almost unable to stand up straight.

"Meow~"

The snowclaw tiger-striped dog felt even more aggrieved.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and save it!"

Lin Ge was both angry and helpless, and he really didn't know how to describe the bizarre things the snowclaw tiger had done.

"This is hilarious...it's killing me! It woke me up from my nap! Mimi, I bet I won't need to catch up on sleep today. Hehe...just thinking about what I'm seeing now makes all my sleepiness disappear with laughter. Haha..."

Zhao Zhigang laughed until tears streamed down his face. He rubbed his tears as he slowly walked to the tree.

He tried to reach the cage on tiptoe, but found he was a little too short. Remembering there was a ladder at the cattery, he gestured for Feng Yi to keep watch at the door, while he laughed and carried the ladder over.

"Meow!"

The little tabby was still trying to pry open the hooks on the birdcage, but unfortunately there was something weighing at least six or seven pounds in the cage, so the little tabby couldn't hook the hooks out at all.

However, it was also patient, repeatedly pawing at the cage with its claws. Suddenly, it hooked onto the cage's metal bar, and with a strong pull, it made the cage rotate half a circle, causing the snowclaw budgie and the rascal inside to scream in pain. The little budgie's eyes lit up.

So it stretched out its claws again, hooked its curved nails onto the wire, and pulled itself hard towards itself.

"Meow~"

"Quack!"

The cage began to spin, and the snowclaw budgie and the rascal chirped together, while the little budgie seemed to have found an interesting toy.

It hooked and hooked again, making the birdcage slowly but continuously rotate counterclockwise. As soon as the cage showed the slightest sign of stopping, the little tabby would immediately extend its claws to help it keep spinning.

The cats and birds inside were so dazzling, it was almost overwhelming.

"Tsk tsk! Playing with it like that, aren't you afraid of breaking the cage? Or is it just something you play with, and you'd be happier if it fell off?"

After placing the ladder under the tree and securing it, Zhao Zhigang climbed up while laughing at the little tiger.

"Meow!"

The little tabby looked down at Zhao Zhigang, and this time it behaved itself and stopped causing trouble.

But... everyone overlooked one thing.

This cage was a discarded item, practically abandoned on a train. It appeared perfectly fine, perfectly capable of holding a bird. However, when a cat squeezed in and stretched the cage, and then another cat vigorously spun it, the cage's hooks and latches had already quietly loosened. If it continued to spin at a constant speed in the same direction, it wouldn't have been so bad. But when it slowly stopped, allowing the snowclaw budgie inside to breathe a sigh of relief and shake its head vigorously to clear its dizzy eyes, coupled with the bird's angry flapping of wings, the latches finally gave way.

To Lingo's astonishment, the birdcage and hook snapped off with a 'click' and the bird fell straight down.

At that moment, Zhao Zhi had just climbed the third step of the A-frame ladder, his head still tilted back, looking upwards. In that instant, his eyes widened as he saw the base of the birdcage coming towards him, getting closer and closer.

'Boom! '

With a muffled thud, the birdcage base made intimate contact with Zhao Zhigang's face. After flicking against his thin cheek, the birdcage tilted to one side and fell, catching Zhao Zhigang off guard and causing him to fall backward.

"Fuck!"

Startled, Lin Ge rushed forward and pushed Zhao Zhigang from behind to slow him down. He then quickly moved aside and watched as Zhao Zhigang fell to the ground next to the ladder with a thud, letting out a muffled groan.

"Holy crap, are you alright? Hey!"

Hearing Zhao Zhigang's groan, Lin Ge was quite startled.

The good news is that Zhao Zhigang's head didn't hit the ground because he was changed in his falling position. The bad news is that he fell hard, and even twisted his ankle on the step of the ladder.

Ignoring the birdcage that was finally falling apart and rolling on the ground, and the snowclawed tiger that had panicked and run away, Lin Ge quickly went to Zhao Zhigang.

"Don't scare me! If you end up in the hospital, I really won't know how to describe your bad luck."

Lin Ge shoved Zhao Zhigang in the face.

"Ouch... Don't touch me, you bastard! Ouch... Damn, that hurts! I think I twisted my shoulder."

Zhao Zhigang opened his eyes with a contorted expression, impatiently wanting to shoo Lin Ge away, but the pain prevented him from moving his arm. He lay on the ground for almost half a minute before getting up, feeling dizzy, and simply sat on the ground, gently shaking his head, grimacing as he rubbed his right shoulder and stretched his legs.

Poor Zhao Zhigang, his face was covered in large red and black smudges, it seemed the birdcage had hit him quite hard. But compared to that, his shoulder seemed to be the bigger problem, Zhao Zhigang's expression didn't look like he was joking.

"Why don't we go to the hospital right away?"

Lin Ge felt extremely guilty at this moment. If it weren't for the Snow Claw Tiger Stripe talking nonsense, if the little tiger stripe hadn't been so ignorant, and if he hadn't asked him for help, Zhao Zhigang wouldn't have ended up like this.

"Hiss... Phew! It's alright, it's not a big problem!"

Zhao Zhigang waved his hand, took a deep breath, and stood up. Seeing Lin Ge still looking at him with concern, he grinned and said, "You helped me from behind just now, right? Thanks a lot! Damn, if I had hit the back of my head, it would have been a big problem. I'm fine now, and it doesn't hurt anymore. Hehe... But I still twisted my shoulder, looks like I'll have to take a few sick days this month. Mimi, you need to make it clear to Nie Guoqiang that this time it wasn't my fault."

"Pah! Look how smug you are!"

Seeing that Zhao Zhigang wasn't concerned about his health but was shamelessly considering taking leave to rest, Lin Ge breathed a sigh of relief.

The fact that you're still thinking about this shows that the situation isn't serious.

Looking to the other side, Lin Ge saw that the Snowclaw Tiger didn't seem to be affected by what had just happened. After being frightened for a while, it was now fighting with the little tiger for some reason.

Beside the remains of the birdcage, the wicked bird emerged unharmed. Perhaps because its food bowl was blocked by the snow-clawed tiger-striped bird, it hadn't eaten for a while and was now slowly pecking at the scattered sunflower seeds on the ground.

All in all, it seems to have been a false alarm; no one, whether human, cat, or bird, was seriously injured.

"Brother Zhao, there's an emergency!"

Feng Yi suddenly rushed over.

"Holy crap! I'm getting off work in less than an hour!"

Zhao Zhigang let out a scream.
