"No food, no clothes. That human will send it to us!"
"No guns, no cannons. Humans will build it for us!"
"We grew up here. Every inch of land is our own!"
"No matter who wants to take it, we'll fight them to the end!"
In order for the stray cats to get rid of Fina's influence, Vladimir loudly sang a song that he had heard from the television. The stray cats present were intoxicated by it. Although they didn't quite understand the content of the song, they were deeply affected by the high fighting spirit and the ambition to fight against the heavens and the earth.
At the same time, their sense of ownership was slowly awakening. This was the territory of all stray cats, and it was no longer a small territory divided by each stray cat, fighting all day for the ownership of a trash can. Instead of falling into endless internal friction, it was better to unite and protect the rights and interests of all stray cats.
Towards the end of the song, there were even a few stray cats that clumsily imitated its tone and sang along with it. Big Orange's voice was even more like a ghost's wail and a wolf's howl. The stray cats' morale also rose with the tone-deaf singing.
"That's all for today. Everyone, dismissed!"
Vladimir was very satisfied with the effect of the song. He wondered if he should simply establish a tradition of singing. Two groups of stray cats would sing whenever they didn't agree. Just thinking about it made him feel good.
The stray cats dispersed and returned to their stations to convey their future work guidelines.
Vladimir also trotted all the way out of the secret stronghold and ran towards the pet shop.
Wang Qian and Li Kun were helping Zhang Zian move the stray cats out of the small cart and then take it to the green space to release them. They then sent the iron cages and small carts back to the pet clinic.
Fina had already returned. It was lying on the highest level of the cat tree, napping. Because it was Golden Week, there were people coming and going in the shop. No one noticed that it had left the pet shop for a short time. Usually, it needed to be repeatedly urged and tempted before it would be reluctant to go out.
Zhang Zian carried Aunt Liu's American Shorthair down from the second floor and picked up the bristle comb to comb its fur for the last time.
When it first came to the pet shop, the American Shorthair was a little malnourished, but now it was smooth and sleek, and its body was well-proportioned and strong from playing hide-and-seek with Galaxy. However, in the hide-and-seek game between Galaxy and the Abyssinian cats, due to the congenital limitations of its physical condition, it could not keep up with them, and often lost its target.
"Are you going to return it to that woman now?" Vladimir asked.
"Well, it has lived here long enough. It's time to go back to its home." Zhang Zian looked up at it and replied.
"Meow! Bye bye! When you have time, you can come back and play with everyone! "
Xinghai also ran over and raised a front paw to bid farewell to the American Shorthair.
The American shorthair didn't know what had happened and looked around in confusion.
"Let's go! Say goodbye to everyone! "
Zhang Zian picked up the American shorthair, lifted one of its front paws, and waved at Xinghai and the other elfins.
When he brought it past Fina's cat tree, Fina snorted coldly and opened its eyes a little. "Where are you taking my people?"
Zhang Zian had already thought of a countermeasure, so he calmly replied, "Its original owner has already been punished and has shown signs of repentance, so I think it's better to send it back and let it enjoy the one-to-one worship of humans."
Fina was very satisfied with this answer. "Well, that makes sense, but if my people suffer even the slightest bit of harm, I will hold you accountable!"
Zhang Zian shrugged helplessly. Forcing himself to be a scapegoat was really bad.
He carried the American Shorthair outside and found a low wall. He stood on his tiptoes and stretched out his arms to put it on the wall.
"Be good and don't move," he said.
He then picked up the proposal, found Aunt Liu's name at the back, and dialed the phone number she had left.
"Hello? Is this Aunt Liu? This is Zhang Zian. I just saw another stray cat that looks like your American Shorthair. Do you want to come over and take a look? Then hurry up, maybe it will run away in a while! Where? It's at … "
He told Aunt Liu the location, then stood in the shadow of the wall, waiting for Aunt Liu to appear and preventing others from taking the American Shorthair away.
Vladimir followed him and watched in silence.
After a while, Aunt Liu ran out wearing a set of home clothes and slippers. As she ran, she looked around anxiously, searching for any trace of the American Shorthair.
"Aiya! Don't move! Don't move! Wait for me to carry you down! "She immediately recognized the American Shorthair squatting on the wall as the one she had lost.
The top of the wall was a little high. No matter how she stood on her tiptoes and stretched out her arms, she couldn't reach it.
Zhang Zian was hesitant to show himself, but he was afraid that if he showed himself, the American Shorthair wouldn't leave with Aunt Liu and would instead follow him back to the pet shop. Then he would be exposed.
At that moment, the American Shorthair seemed to recognize Aunt Liu. It hesitated for a moment, then jumped down and was hugged by her.
"Aiyo! My little baby! Where have you been all this time? I've been looking for you for so many days! " Aunt Liu couldn't stop complaining, but her expression was very gratified, as if she had let go of a heavy burden.
She checked and found that the American Shorthair wasn't injured or sick, and it wasn't very dirty. She was even more satisfied. "Let's go home. I just bought some fish from the market. The steamed fish is on the stove. Consider it a bargain for you!"
Aunt Liu, who was wearing home clothes, carried the American Shorthair and walked in the direction of her home.
"Okay, the show is over. We can go back … After a long morning, I'm hungry. I want to eat steamed fish too …"
Zhang Zian walked out of the shadows, stretched, and said to Vladimir.
Vladimir looked at him with a faint smile, and said meaningfully, "You know what? You just saved the world! "
"Saved the world?"
Zhang Zian was stunned at first, then he laughed.
This wasn't some Hollywood popcorn blockbuster where they could save the world just because they didn't like each other.
"Well, since I saved the world, are there any benefits? For example, let me reincarnate as a tall, rich, and handsome man in my next life? I don't have to be very rich, just about the same as Principal Wang, but it'd be best if I'm more handsome than him, "he joked.
Vladimir shook its head regretfully. "Unfortunately, reincarnation is impossible. For humans and cats, the most precious thing is life. It can only be given to us once. "
Its eyes burned with a raging flame, and it clenched a front paw. It said firmly, "A cat's life should be spent like this: Looking back on the past, it won't regret wasting its time, and it won't be ashamed of being mediocre. On its deathbed, it can say: My whole life and all my energy have been dedicated to the most magnificent cause in the world — fighting for the liberation of stray cats!"
