In the courtyard, Lin Gantang invited Xiao Wan to sit down in the leisure area under the parasol.
Xiao Wan swept through the luxurious surroundings of the courtyard and the servants nearby waiting for instructions, and couldn’t help but sit up straight.
“No need to be nervous, Uncle Wen isn’t at home, and Yanqing is upstairs,” Lin Gantang said with a smile, telling him to relax.
Was it about being nervous? It was just that I, a country bumpkin, had never been in a house so fancy, Xiao Wan expressed that he couldn’t relax.
“Mr. Wan, here’s your drink,” a servant gently placed the drink in front of Xiao Wan.
“Thank you, thank you,” Xiao Wan thanked him repeatedly.
Lin Gantang’s attention had already fallen on the iron cage.
A gray cat was locked in the cage, with a skinny and sunken belly, now lying inside scratching its neck with its hind leg, its neck bare without a collar.
Seeing her looking, Xiao Wan pointed at the cat’s ear and said, “The notch in this cat’s right ear is real, the other characteristics also match up, it’s just gotten thin from roaming around for a while.”
Xiao Wan became depressed as he spoke, “I called it Vitamin E, but it ignored me, making me think I got the wrong one and started searching from scratch again, but it turned out to be it.”
Lin Gantang reached out to the edge of the cage, the gray cat acted affectionate, sniffed her fingertips with its nose, and, not knowing if it recognized Lin Gantang’s scent, it extended its pink tongue to lick and rub against her.
Lin Gantang opened the cage, and the gray cat slowly walked out without running away.
“Ew, you’re so dirty,” Lin Gantang crouched down and pinched off some grass clippings stuck on its body with distaste: “Look at your dull gray paws, your belly is also dirty with mud, did you fall into a mud pit?”
“Meow.”
“How many washes will it take to get you clean, huh?”
“Mew meow-”
“Meowing is no use, won’t you speak up? You dirty little cat.”
“Meow, meow-woo! Awo~”
Xiao Wan watched, dumbfounded, as the woman and the cat started chatting.
“It’s definitely Vitamin E,” Lin Gantang got up and said after chatting, “After all, I doubt there’s another cat nearby that can chatter as much as it does.”
“But why wouldn’t it respond to anyone?” Xiao Wan wondered.
Lin Gantang fell silent for a moment, “Could it have forgotten its name?”
Lin Gantang tried calling, “Vitamin E.”
The cat ignored her and scratched its ears.
“Vitamin E?”
After scratching its ears, it licked its fur.
Lin Gantang thought it had forgotten and helplessly fondled its little ear, saying, “Luckily your distinctive feature is still there, a small C notch.”
“Meow-um~”
Lin Gantang paused, “Small C?”
“Meow-”
It responded, it actually responded?
Lin Gantang’s face was full of black lines, “What’s this, you roam around outside for a while and come back wanting to change your name?”
No way, Vitamin E was the name you chose for yourself in the first place.
“Where did you find it?” Lin Gantang looked up to ask Xiao Wan.
“In Zishi Park, hiding in the bushes. There were other stray cats nearby, all very cunning. It took me a lot of ham sausages to lure it into the cage.”
“Thank you so much for your help,” Lin Gantang felt Xiao Wan had some skills and thus mentioned, “Have you really not considered becoming a pet detective?”
“No,” Xiao Wan was full of ambition, clenching his fist, “I have to become the greatest detective; that’s my dream.”
“Well, good luck,” Lin Gantang took out her phone to make a transfer, “I’ve sent your payment, check it, and by the way, would you consider helping me look for Joy, too?”
“Miss Lin, to achieve my dream, I need to take on some official investigation cases to practice. Although I really would like to work with you, but…” Xiao Wan spoke as he looked down to receive the payment, and on seeing the transfer amount, he was speechless.
“But I didn’t expect our cooperation to come this quickly!” Xiao Wan sincerely shook his employer’s hand, “Miss Lin, I am very honored to continue serving you, and I will do my best to find Joy..”
