The System Mistook Me for a Cat

[Have you seen this human?]

[Have you seen this human...?]

An Orange Cat meowed and weaved through the crowd. The camera followed the cat, capturing a low-angle view, showing only the legs of people passing by.

A car suddenly honked, the "beep beep" of the horn startling the cat. The Orange Cat turned to look at the traffic light above, which was green, and then at the car. Despite this, it jumped and ran away.

In a gray steel jungle, the Orange Cat darted through, its orange fur like a thread, threading through half the city. The camera then rose, continuing to ascend, until the city became a blur, like a net cast down. In mid-air, the title of the video appeared—

"Long Zai"

The title dissipated like wind, and in the lower right corner, the name of the city appeared again: Tian City.

...

Relying on powerful technology, the system pieced together a short film with animal protagonists, from Long Zai's journey to Tian City, to Fallen Phoenix City, and then to the stories of several other small animals. Much of the content was real footage from the camera around the animals' necks, though the quality had been adjusted. 2D illustrations were inserted between the real shots, and the frame rate was reduced, giving the entire video a fairy-tale feel, with excellent pacing.

At the end of the video, there was a line that read—

[This video is adapted from a true story; some identity details have been blurred.]

[The continuation of the story is in your hands.]

[With your shares and attention, we will help Long Zai find his owner.]

However, the system's backend calculated the video's playback data and knew that it couldn't reach the ten million views requirement in a short time—

It would need a push from others.

It spun in the void of the network world... With its capabilities, hacking into the entire world wouldn't be difficult, but using such a large data stream would still require the help of human machinery, otherwise, it might affect the health of the young one.

It casually hijacked two large human server farms, silently modified the data, and hacked into the software networks commonly used by humans, adjusting some video recommendation algorithms to insert the "Long Zai" video.

Although humans often say "Big data is terrifying," they are indeed controlled by it and act according to its arrangements. Many self-media people are also being driven by data—as long as they believe promoting this video will be beneficial and find that others are doing the same, they will follow suit.

It's like A thinks B promoted it, so I should too, and B thinks A promoted it, so I should too. The system merely tells A and B that the other has promoted it, and the data flow is complete.

It glanced at the young one feeding the cat and let out a silent yawn, then pulled up the data growth report from the "private plot" in the backend: humans have proven that short videos have better exposure than long ones, and in a short time, image (especially memes) forwarding rates are higher than text. Therefore, the system arranged several exposure plans, fermenting them in one city, and then selecting the highest one to push to the blogger it favored.

Half an hour later.

In Fallen Phoenix City, a tourist opened the Xinmei APP and exclaimed loudly, "I can't believe it!"

"The photo I took this morning has already been shared 30,000 times!!!"

The tourist opened the APP to admire his work and exclaimed to his friend, "Am I about to go viral?" The most popular post on his personal account was a photo he had snapped—

The first photo showed a Tortoiseshell Cat walking along the railing of Dengzhang Mountain under a sky with only a faint light. The cat wore a collar, and beside it, a Crow flew very low, its neck adorned with a small red bib, and its beak holding a camera.

The second photo showed the sky already half-lit, the Crow holding a wooden stick, which, when enlarged, revealed it to be a fortune stick with the words "Great Fortune" in gold, shining brightly under the sunlight. The Tortoiseshell Cat held three sticks in its mouth—the two animals no longer walked on the railing but descended the stone steps.

Most interestingly, at that moment, a Taoist priest was ascending the mountain. He passed by the two animals, turned his head subconsciously, and seemed to be wondering if the sticks in their mouths were from his temple. But he couldn't stop the animals, so this captured moment was funny yet full of story.

Many people in the comments asked where the photo was taken. The tourist had a camera, so the shot was exceptionally clear. He replied with the location, and coincidentally, the recent buzz around Fallen Phoenix City hadn't died down yet. When they learned it was Qingshan Temple, someone joked:

["Even cats and crows go to ask for fortune sticks; you can tell how accurate the fortunes at Qingshan Temple are!"]

The young Taoist at Qingshan Temple who saw this: "?"

The buzz around the temple suddenly picked up, and he couldn't ignore it, so he posted the photos he took that morning with a wry smile: "They weren't here to ask for fortunes; they were here to steal them. Here's a criminal suspect cat caught in the act, showing off his wicked face [Photo][Photo][Photo]."

The photos showed a fortune barrel overturned early in the morning, a Swallow caught red-handed—now lying on a cushion, forced to hold a sign that read "I'm sorry," and dozing off in front of the Three Pure Ones.

It was clear that the criminal suspect cat had no remorse and was sleeping soundly.

Soon, marketing accounts that noticed the buzz cropped the photos and started a second round of sharing, but this time, they only tagged Fallen Phoenix City's Qingshan Temple, leaving the original tourist out of the spotlight.

The system silently pushed several specific pieces of content to the head of the Fallen Phoenix City's Tourism Bureau Publicity Department.

When the buzz first picked up, they had already noticed it, but since it was just a couple of snapshots, they could only follow up with something like "Our Qingshan Temple has a beautiful environment," knowing that the buzz would die down within half a day.

But this time, the head "hmm"ed, following the push content to Chu Tingwu's account, and watched the latest video.

"I thought that cat looked familiar... It really is Three-Five-Five."

Three-Five-Five and Chu Tingwu were small actors in their city's promotional video. The already popular photos now had an added story... The head first called the Public Security Bureau to understand the situation, then pondered:

"Could Long Zai's owner be an undercover agent, or have they already sacrificed?"

["We checked the public servants who sacrificed in Tian City... but there haven't been any in the past two years."]

Maybe the cat went to the wrong place? After all, it's just a cat, which is quite possible.

What was originally a small-scale, fan-driven buzz began to enter the eyes of more people... Soon, the official account of the Tourism Bureau shared the original tourist's photos and bought the usage rights, then started contacting Qingshan Temple for promotional cooperation.

We can't say whether the fortunes are accurate or not, but we can praise the temple's animals for their spirituality.

—But if animals go to ask for fortunes, how can they not be accurate (whispering).

After the official sneakily promoted it, the cat from Qingshan Temple finally made it to the top of the trending searches.

The system waited a moment, then pushed the video with Long Zai's tag to the lower ranks of the trending searches.

Obviously, before the truth came out, the official from Fallen Phoenix City wouldn't promote the video of Long Zai looking for his owner... After all, the owner's identity was somewhat sensitive, but they would definitely keep a close eye on it these two days, and only after the results came out could they decide whether to seize the promotional opportunity.

Their attention might be more effective than that of the netizens.

At this moment, the system glanced at the young one again; the young one was learning "Russian" and confiscated the peach blossom fortune stick the Crow brought back.

Crow: "..."

It quacked twice, flew to a tree, covered its face with its wings, and went into seclusion.

If the little one wants to know what other humans are saying, the system can help with translation at any time, easily achieving simultaneous interpretation. But in the system's view, the little one isn't going to school; she's just playing with her friends!

Going out every day to communicate with "old friends" and nibbling on snacks not on its prescribed diet are also part of the little one's entertainment activities.

Now that the task assigned by the little one is completed, very good!

System: "It's done, let's wait for the news."

Chu Tingwu: "Is there any problem?"

System: "Of course not!"

It's just that the data flow is a bit large, borrowing a human's large machine room, but anyway, it doesn't have much impact, and they can't trace it back here.

It's very good at protecting the little one.

"We must change our address!" The head of Research Group 11's eyes were bloodshot as he slammed the table and looked up at his superiors, "What the hell are the network security guys doing? From yesterday to today, that damn hacker has cut off our machines, scanned all our data, and what about our network security? They've worked all day and haven't made any progress at all—"

"The other side's defense is tougher than the network security team's skin! Are we just going to let an unknown entity wander around in our database? Until the other side voluntarily stepped back, we regained control—damn it, damn it, damn it, this is a declaration of war!"

The superior took a puff of his cigar.

"So, the current experimental data is no longer secure, right?"

Head of Research Group 11: "There's no trace of it being copied... but, you know, if someone wanted to steal this data, that much time is enough to take it away in other ways. The biological weapon we're researching..."

Superior: "Then let's pause the research for now, clean up all the data, and handwrite the unprocessed data for storage."

He said decisively: "I think this might be a war, this is the prelude to the start of the war."

They decided to wait for the hacker's second visit; it couldn't just come for a stroll and leave, right? Surely it wasn't just borrowing their machine room on a whim?

They began to wait.

Just wait.

-

System: "Look at this, Long Zai, you're going to school next week, right? I just used the computational rate to come up with a storage blueprint while pushing the video, now you can pack more stuff into your suitcase!"

"Amazing."

System: "Hehe."

Yu City.

Dai Xia unlocked her phone screen and just happened to see the top push notification:

#This Orange Cat turned itself into a police dog, traveling thousands of miles just to find his police officer master#

Dai Xia: "What kind of marketing nonsense is this..."

On the right side of the push notification, there was a small square with a leaping Orange Cat, showing off his muscles. Ordinary people might have exclaimed "Holy cow," but Dai Xia casually swiped it away. However, the next second, her hand paused.

She dialed a number: "Mom... yeah, I just wanted to ask, is Tiger Head still not found?"

"Okay..."

"Don't worry, it's fine, he'll definitely be found."

She put on her coat, first greeted her colleagues, then sat down at her desk. A colleague next to her was talking about the fraudster they caught yesterday, while another colleague was furiously writing a report, smoking a cigarette. Dai Xia accessed the fingerprint database, did some fingerprint matching, and then took out her phone again.

This time, the push notification had a different title—

#In order to find his master, this Orange Cat trained in search and rescue actually went to Tian City alone [Video]#

A trained Orange Cat... could it be?

Maybe I'll watch it after work?

Until lunch break, Dai Xia's head was spinning. She rubbed her forehead and opened her phone, finding that it was the colleague group chat that had popped up, with someone chatting—

[Did you see, this Orange Cat can actually smell drugs, is that true?]

[Could it be that someone from the narcotics unit secretly trained it?]

[Is it that easy to train a cat to smell drugs? Marketing nonsense again...]

[Not necessarily, cats have a strong sense of smell, I heard that there are drug-sniffing and rescue cats abroad, it's just hard to train, Lao Cang didn't he]

Halfway through his sentence, the person quietly withdrew it.

Dai Xia typed:

"Yeah, my brother also tried to train an Orange Cat, but after he passed away, the cat ran away."

Her brother, Dai Cang, had a country Orange Cat named Tiger Head, which he had brought from his grandmother's house, raising it from a tiny kitten to three years old. He trained the cat to follow commands, find things, fetch items, and every weekend he would take the cat out for a run... At first, the family didn't understand, but since Dai Cang liked it, they let him be.

Every time Dai Xia visited her brother's dorm, she felt that the cat named Tiger Head was very intelligent.

When she stared into the cat's eyes, she felt like the cat was talking to her.

Once, due to an operational mistake, a colleague was injured, and she was in low spirits for a long time. While her brother was cooking, Tiger Head suddenly walked over, rubbed his forehead against her face, and then lay on her lap, tilting his head to look at her.

It seemed that the cat could smell the changes in human emotions and was comforting her with his actions.

Now, half a year after her brother's death, the cat had also been missing for half a year.

Time seemed to have dulled everything, allowing her to calmly say the word "sacrifice," but thinking of the missing cat, she felt a pang in her heart—the cat's existence seemed to be a continuation of Dai Cang, who had no descendants and whose police number was permanently sealed, but the living, purring, and much-loved cat seemed to prove that he had once existed.

Tiger Head, where are you?

How could you, so smart, get lost?

During lunch, she opened her phone and started playing the video while eating, but the more she watched, the wider Dai Xia's eyes grew.

She put down her chopsticks, clicked into the hot search, and began to check all the content related to "Long Zai," then repeatedly clicked into the "Cha Mi Returns Home," "Chu Tingwu and Three-Five-Five," and Fallen Phoenix City Tourism's related accounts, carefully examining all the details related to Long Zai.

On the screen, the Orange Cat was well-fed and looked like he was doing well even if he was a stray. He looked up at the camera, as if looking through the lens at her, his gaze still as it was yesterday.

Dai Xia suddenly buried her face on the table and sobbed uncontrollably.

-

Long Zai's master's sister found him!

Just as the hot search was about to drop to the bottom, the master's sister contacted Cha Mi through the backend, then through the internal police system, contacted the police in Fallen Phoenix City. Finally, she took the day's train to Fallen Phoenix City, bringing along her brother's photo and a few personal items.

Long Zai's master had last transferred in Tian City before his ashes were sent straight home.

Thus, the cat only chased as far as Tian City.

Confused by the big city he had never been to before, the cat looked up and then sniffed the ground, eventually losing the last trace on the road to the airport.

But when Dai Xia walked over and reached out her hand, Long Zai didn't smell the items she had brought specially; instead, he stood up directly, touched her hand with his forehead, and meowed once.

Dai Xia: "So you still remember me."

Bubu, beside her, showed reluctance in her eyes. She knew that Long Zai's original name should be "Tiger Head," and now, whether she called him Tiger Head or Long Zai, he would respond. The cat's eyes reflected the human face, as he sniffed around, seemingly puzzled as to why there was only the master's scent but not the master himself.

Three-Five-Five lay on Chu Tingwu's lap, while Chu Tingwu looked at the information about Long Zai's master displayed by the system. Finally, Dai Xia hesitated and told Long Zai, pointing to her uniform:

The master is going to perform a very difficult task and won't be back for many years, so Long Zai can't find him.

Now, it's time to go home.

Long Zai: "..."

At the Fallen Phoenix City Public Security Bureau, the trainer led Wangka by his side, watching as the Orange Cat tilted its head, turned around, jumped up, and sat on the long table in the office, pressing its front paws on its tail, assuming a very upright and spirited posture.

There was a glimmer in his eyes, and Dai Xia choked back a sob.

The trainer also felt a pang of sympathy and turned away, while Wangka, as if sensing something, tilted its head and rubbed its head against the trainer's hand.

Long Zai meowed twice, looking at Chu Tingwu—

Dai Xia suddenly said:

"My brother's police number has already been sealed, but if he knew... Could Tiger Head take it over again?"

There is no police cat establishment in the country, and the police numbers of police dogs and humans are fundamentally different systems, so how could an animal police officer take over a human's... She opened her mouth, but didn't finish her sentence.

Some "police cats" in the country are essentially cats kept as mascots in police stations, responsible for mediating disputes or catching mice, and they don't have real establishments either, but that certainly wasn't what Long Zai wanted.

But if a cat were to be given an establishment, it couldn't take the place of a dog, and the police dogs that worked hard to complete their training hadn't done anything wrong.

Chief Zhuang from the Cultural and Tourism Bureau had arrived early and was observing alongside the Fallen Phoenix City Police Chief. At this moment, he clicked his tongue, and the Police Chief spoke up: "If this little cat's operational capabilities are really good, we could try signing a contract to make him a auxiliary police officer."

Auxiliary police contracts are much more lenient than formal contracts—if this Orange Cat performs well and achieves real results, it might be possible to apply for a formal police cat establishment.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

However, even with an auxiliary police establishment, there are requirements. Long Zai must demonstrate his abilities and compete with Wangka. The competition content will be recorded on video as proof of his qualification.

Chu Tingwu translated for them, and Dai Xia watched the interaction between the human and the cat, smiling:

She didn't mention taking Long Zai back to Yu City, as Yu City might not be willing to recruit a cat, and she believed that both her family and her deceased brother would prefer Long Zai to be recruited... The police station was their true home.

The trainer had to take care of Wangka, so he handed over the task to Lin Undercover.

The undercover police officer who had been knocked down by the cat and the cat itself stared at each other, then both looked at Chu Tingwu—

Chu Tingwu: Am I the official translator for you?

She took out her lesson notes.

Yes... While teaching cat language to Teacher Zhang, Chu Tingwu also summarized, mainly the cat body language that couldn't be taught to Teacher Zhang. She had photocopied several copies for Aunt Mei, Teacher Wang, and others to read, and now they came in handy.

She didn't believe that with these notes, plus Long Zai's ability to understand commands, there would be any lack of cooperation.

The Chief couldn't help but glance at Chu Tingwu, then at Three-Five-Five beside her.

"This cat..."

He looked very capable and intelligent.

Although Long Zai hadn't started working yet, the Chief was already fantasizing about increasing the number of police cats in the station—the hardest part of doing anything is starting, and once you open the door, everything else seems to flow smoothly.

Chief Zhuang: "Don't, this is a house cat, not a civil servant."

And his cat only listens to his owner, okay? He can also do parkour, and once he's out, you can't catch him.

Chief Zhuang pondered and suggested: "Send us a copy of the assessment video, we'll use it as promotional material."

Now, if you search for police cats online, you'll find other police station mascots, but those cats only catch mice. Long Zai is different; he's a cat that can search for drugs. How can those mice-catching cats compare?

Three-Five-Five: "?"

She tilted her head, looking at this male human, feeling an urge to scratch off his wig.

"Meow!"

The assessment went quickly, or rather, it went very smoothly. Initially, the humans around thought: Even if Long Zai barely passed, they could turn a blind eye and let him through.

But as the assessment progressed, except for the trainer's slightly strange expression, Lin Undercover was practically grinning from ear to ear, "Hey," he said first, "Okay, the cat is going to be with me, I've raised cats before, I'm good at it."

Three-Five-Five: "Pfft."

Chu Tingwu looked down: "Three-Five-Five, do you have a cold?"

Why did you suddenly snort?

Three-Five-Five stretched and yawned, watching the humans who were praising the Orange Cat, and then looked at the test process where the "hidden (thrown out)" items were just picked up, suddenly jumping into the frame.

Everyone: "Huh?"

The tortoiseshell cat first pushed aside Long Zai, sniffed the drop of blood on the ground, then shook its fur, entered the room, circled around, and from the bottom of a cardboard box, found a small piece of cloth, which it carried out the window and placed by Chu Tingwu's side.

Lin Undercover: "…You're doing it wrong, you should give it to me."

And isn't this supposed to be an assessment for Long Zai?!

Three-Five-Five glanced at him, picked up the cloth again, and placed it back in its original position, then stood in front of the blood, meowing at Chu Tingwu, signaling her to come over.

Chu Tingwu: "…" She vaguely felt…

When she approached, Three-Five-Five raised a paw, indicating that Chu Tingwu should lower her head to smell, then the cat mother raised her front paw and made a very vivid gesture:

Go!

It's your turn to find it.

Seeing this action, everyone around couldn't hold back. Bubu patted Chu Tingwu's shoulder: "Isn't this asking you to smell and then find it?"

Humans aren't cats, they can't find things by smell.

Chu Tingwu: "=="

Actually, she could.

Three-Five-Five: "Meow?"

Why not find it?

Aren't you just playing this hide-and-seek game?

Lin Undercover laughed and cried, entered the field to find the props that the cat had hidden, and turned his head to see Chu Tingwu holding one end of the prop, silently handing it to him.

Lin Undercover: "…Thank you."

This little sister has good eyesight, she must have seen it from the surveillance, right?

-

Long Zai finally put on his new uniform.

When the video was released on the official account, the custom uniform also arrived in Fallen Phoenix City.

Dai Xia and everyone exchanged contact information, then left hurriedly that night. Bubu stayed until the next morning, chatting with Long Zai for a long time before finally getting on the bus, looking back three times at each step.

Long Zai stayed in place for a while, looking up as if wanting to go forward—

Lin Undercover coughed.

The Orange Cat in uniform twitched its ears, returned to its original position, and quietly watched the flow of people at the station, leaning against his leg.

He meowed.

The cat didn't know what mission his father was going on, but he could wear this uniform like his father and wait for him to come back.

Chu Tingwu didn't pay attention to the subsequent uproar on the internet about the video, posting a temporary halt to updates on her personal dynamic.

As summer gradually turned to autumn, the start of the school year was approaching, and she was preparing to head to Jin City.

She declined her mother Lu Cenyin's offer to help find a rental, as Chu Tingwu... already had someone, or rather, something, to rent a place for her.

System: "The renovation is complete! I've installed a whole-house control system, so when you get home, I can help you cook!"

The system, bound to her not long after, had thought of her going to Jin City and started remodeling the rental house in advance. The old house couldn't be easily changed, but in the countryside, it was relatively safe. However, the system pondered over a hundred examples of "single women/minors encountering xxx," quickly transforming the future rental into a fortress.

For instance, the whole-house control system allowed the system to control all electrical appliances in the house. As soon as Chu Tingwu got home, whether it was for meals or baths, she only needed to do a little bit of fetching, with the water temperature adjusted by the system.

【It's a pity the house is too small.】

...Um, if it weren't for Chu Tingwu stopping it, it wanted to rent a villa.

Chu Tingwu silently watched the surveillance footage projected by the system. The video showed a house that had been completely renovated: "A three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment isn't small, right...?"

You've remodeled it like this, why not just buy it outright?

In reality, it had already been purchased, but due to liquidity issues, the full payment hadn't been made yet. The system didn't want to put pressure on the young one, so it hadn't mentioned it: "Hehe."

Chu Tingwu's high school was Jin City No.5 Senior High School, abbreviated as Wuzhong. The house was right next to the school. If she wanted to get to school quickly, she could just climb over the wall—a cat certainly could.

If she wasn't in a hurry, it was just over two hundred meters to the school gate, very convenient.

The system didn't tell the young one: Your future math teacher and homeroom teacher lives right across the hall.

Chu Tingwu planned to arrive in Jin City three days early to settle Three-Five-Five and let it get used to the new neighborhood environment. Then she would go to school to pick up her military training uniform and participate in a week-long high school entrance military training.

Chu Tingwu: "I need to say goodbye to everyone first."

She walked around the village, found the Leopard Cat, and told her: "I've opened a cat door at the back, so you can stay in the yard overnight if it rains. If it gets too cold or you're too hungry, you can come in through the cat door. The food bucket will open, right?"

Leopard Cat: "You worry too much, young one~"

She wouldn't go hungry.

After bringing the Orange Cat over to recognize the door, Chu Tingwu found that there was an additional domesticated kitten in the village.

Third Aunt had a little calico, a two-month-old calico sister with big, bright eyes that would "meow-meow" when she saw Chu Tingwu.

Chu Tingwu: "This one—"

Third Aunt: "Five bucks!"

Third Aunt, you're really good at bargaining!

However, the calico's name wasn't "Five Bucks"; she was called "Niu Niu." But in her perception, her name seemed to be "Come Here" because Third Aunt always called her "Niu Niu, baby, come here, oh, come here," which was too long for a cat...

So, let's just call her "Come Here."

Compared to the clumsy calico who fell every few steps, the two adult village cats were relatively well-behaved. The Orange Cat circled around the cat door and meowed, indicating that it could help guard the house and catch mice while Chu Tingwu was away.

After making arrangements with them, Chu Tingwu went to say goodbye to You Zhenzhen, Hang Ling, and others.

You Zhenzhen: "Perfect timing, my package just arrived!"

She handed Chu Tingwu a can of sunscreen: "I used this during my university military training. Remember to apply it, or you'll get sunburned every day!"

The system: My cat actually isn't afraid of the sun... But this one smells nice, okay.

The sunscreen had a light fragrance, with a hint of grass and wood, and Chu Tingwu rubbed her nose, finding it not too strong. She thanked You Zhenzhen for her kindness.

When she said goodbye to Hang Ling, Hang Ling handed her two membership cards: "Jin City... Here, these are the ones I got when I was in Jin City, but I didn't use them much. This one's for a milk tea shop, and this one's for a cake shop. You can use them."

She definitely wouldn't need them anymore.

Chu Tingwu: "=="

She took the sunscreen, membership cards, and finally went to Teacher Zhang's house, bringing along Shikuai's shuttlecock.

She would be away for several months, only returning during holidays, so it was better to let Shikuai and the crow play with his toys.

Teacher Zhang "hmm"ed: "Have you hired a moving company? You need to bring Three-Five-Five and the furniture... If you haven't, why don't I ask Aunt Mei to drive you?"

Chu Tingwu indeed couldn't just take Three-Five-Five and leave. Although the system had prepared a lot, the cat's accustomed items and her daily necessities, plus clothes for changing... It was better not to change too much in a new environment.

After getting Chu Tingwu's reply, Teacher Zhang took out a book from under the table, a self-study textbook for learning Russian: "Take this one too. The notes in it were written by my student... I read them when I wasn't blind, and they were pretty good. If you have any questions, you can go to him."

Teacher Zhang read out the student's name, and Chu Tingwu took a look—it was the author of the textbook.

Chu Tingwu: "Okay."

Chu Tingwu: "Aunt Mei driving me would be great, but are you okay by yourself?"

Zhang Youyi: "It's fine, I've got the cat."

Chu Tingwu: I feel even more worried now.

Aunt Mei laughed: "It's okay, I'll have a familiar part-time worker come to take care of Teacher Zhang for a day."

Chu Tingwu: "Alright, I'll also ask my acquaintance to check in occasionally."

As for the lessons, they wouldn't stop; they would just change to every weekend after the military training, using electronic devices for video lessons.

Zhang Youyi chuckled: "You're so young, why are you so good at worrying? By the way, take this too, even though it's not very useful, you can play with it."

It was a few leftover feathers from making the shuttlecock, brightly colored and pretty, suitable for decoration.

-

The next day, Chu Tingwu opened the door and stared at the large truck parked outside in silence.

Aunt Mei: "Come on, let's move your stuff. Is there anything else to pack—"

Chu Tingwu: She was just going to school, not moving the entire house.

And Aunt Mei, do you even have a truck driver's license?

Meanwhile, Teacher Zhang was stroking Shikuai, who suddenly meowed.

The part-time worker peeked in: "Is it a cat from the neighborhood?"

A Leopard Cat was perched on the wall, "meowed" once, fulfilling the young one's task while trying to get some cat food.

...I told the worried young one, a cat like me definitely won't starve~
