Although Rollie was excited to go out for a stroll, the Southern Suburbs had nothing much to do at this time. This was originally a sparsely populated and remote suburb. Now that the temperature of the province had dropped, more than half of the population in the Southern Suburbs were old men and women. At this time, there were not many people walking on the streets in the cold. Hao Ren led the cat girl around the deserted streets, and they did not meet anyone along the way. This was a good thing for him: at least he did not have to worry about the dumb cat suddenly grabbing someone's pants and causing a lot of trouble.
But although Hao Ren did not see many familiar faces, Rollie saw a lot of them — they were all stray cats in the vicinity. Just like Lily had her own army of wolves, Hao Ren saw that the cat's forces were not small either …
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Hao Ren deliberately picked the inaccessible places to walk, and the scenery around them was getting more and more desolate. If he was leading a normal girl out, he would not have done this, but Rollie was a cat demon, and she did not care where they were going. In fact, to be able to stroll in all kinds of strange deserted streets was exactly what the cat girl wanted. She ran around Hao Ren energetically, and whenever Hao Ren was slightly distracted, she would immediately run to places where she was not allowed to run, such as walls and trees, and within a few seconds, she would be yelled at by Hao Ren. It was as if she was deliberately doing something disobedient to attract attention.
Before they knew it, they had come to a place far away from the last residential area. All the houses here were particularly dilapidated, and there were no buildings above two floors on either side of the road. What they saw were brick houses built thirty or forty years ago. In front of the road, they could see a few larger houses. On the mottled and peeling walls, they could still vaguely see the words "XX grain station", "XX wholesale department" and so on. The words had almost faded out of shape.
This was a completely abandoned city, the oldest street in the Southern Suburbs. Time seemed to have stopped here, and everything had an atmosphere that only existed a few decades ago. Ten years ago, when the last few families moved out of the nearby bungalows, the street was completely deserted, and it had been deserted until today. It was said that the city's reconstruction project had been included in the plan, but just like the entire Southern Suburbs, time was slow here, and it was hard to say when someone would come and renovate the dilapidated brick houses here.
Hao Ren even remembered that when he came here to play as a child, this was what he saw. Although there were only a few families living on the west side of the street at that time, the dilapidated street was almost no different from the complete desertion now.
The scene on the street reminded him of his childhood. Hao Ren was a little emotional, and then he looked up at the old poplar tree by the roadside. Although his body was not afraid of the cold, he still subconsciously rubbed his hands. "The weather is really getting colder."
While Hao Ren was distracted, the cat maiden ran to the low wall next to him and climbed up to the roof of a nearby house. She quickly climbed up the wall and climbed up to the roof of a nearby house. She looked around and quickly locked on her target: a fat pigeon on the roof not far away.
Rollie happily rubbed her hands, and suddenly felt that the meaning of her life had returned to her. She arched her body and carefully walked along the roof, ready to add an extra meal for herself. But the silly cat had forgotten one thing: when she left the house, Hao Ren had forced her tail to be tied under her clothes. So the cat girl only took a few steps forward before she felt her body swaying. She subconsciously wanted to straighten her tail to regain her balance, but the next second, she still fell from the roof. This old house, which had been in disrepair for many years, could not withstand her torment at all. Thus, there was only the sound of tiles shattering, and a hole directly appeared in the roof. Rollie was stunned at first, and then she immediately scrambled, but she still fell unstoppably through the hole.
Hao Ren was busy lamenting the passing of time, and he did not notice that the dumb cat beside him had disappeared. Then he heard the loud noise made by the cat. He followed the sound and saw the scene of Rollie falling into the big hole. Before he could react, the cat was already gone.
Two seconds later, he heard the panicked meowing of the cat girl coming from a nearby house.
"This idiot!" Hao Ren smacked his lips and quickly ran towards the abandoned house. He knew that all the houses here were already in danger. With Rollie's demonic physique, she might even collapse the houses. "Don't move around in there! I'll help you! "
Even the doors and windows of this abandoned old house had rotted, and Hao Ren only had to gently push the door down. When he ran in, he found that the abandoned house was dark. Only a beam of light shone through the big hole in the roof, allowing him to see the situation in the middle of the house. The open space in the middle of the house was covered with broken tiles. Rollie was crawling out of it with her face covered in dirt. She looked like she had just been beaten up by Lil Pea.
When the cat girl heard the movement at the door, she immediately looked up, and then with a meow, she rushed over. "Big Boss Cat! I fell down! "
She did not sound embarrassed at all, but rather excited. It seemed that the cat girl had completely treated the accident as a fun thing.
"How many times have I told you not to run around!" Hao Ren pressed the cat girl's head that was rubbing against him, and stopped her from acting coquettishly. "If you do this again, I won't let you go out again!"
The cat girl stiffened her neck and said, "But I have never fallen down before when I was running on the roof!"
Hao Ren glared at her. "Nonsense, how much did you weigh before? Why don't you look at yourself now? Hurry up … Huh? "
Halfway through his scolding of the dumb cat, Hao Ren suddenly felt an inexplicable chill coming from nowhere. He almost had no time to think, and subconsciously pushed Rollie aside, and then jumped to the side!
However, after he dodged, the chill did not go far at all. It was like maggots in the tarsal bone, following his dodging movements, sticking to his skin and spreading along his limbs. The next moment, Hao Ren felt his hair stand on end, and at the same time, the chill suddenly condensed into something like a blade, slashing diagonally at his throat!
Hao Ren's muscles tightened. His eyes could see everything in the dark, but this time, he could not see anything at all. He could only intuitively feel that there was a sinister blade coming at him. At the last moment when the blade almost touched his skin, he used all his strength to twist his body and narrowly avoided it.
But what did he avoid? Hao Ren did not even know what he had avoided. He did not see anything. There was only the usual air in front of him. From the beginning of the chill to the moment when he felt the blade, it all seemed like an illusion. There was only perception, but there was nothing real. But Hao Ren was sure that he must have avoided some kind of attack, because he saw a little silver light on his skin in the dark, which was produced when the Steel Membrane Shield automatically activated and collided with something.
After this dangerous assassination mistake, the chill seemed to suddenly appear and quickly began to fade. But Hao Ren knew that something was still lurking around him, and it was lurking very close. His sixth sense, which had been honed from all kinds of dangerous environments, was sounding an alarm. He felt a slight cool air hovering under his feet like a breeze. It was like a cheetah lurking in the grass, waiting for the moment when its prey would relax.
After being pushed away by Hao Ren, Rollie bounced a few times before she finally stood firm. If this dumb cat encountered such a situation, she would have foolishly jumped up and asked why he pushed her, but this time, even she seemed to have sensed something strange in the air. The cat girl's muscles tightened, and she unconsciously bent her back on all fours. Her eyes glowed faintly in the dark. The contact lenses used to conceal her cat pupils had been taken off, and now a pair of cat eyes were staring at the space of one meter around Hao Ren in the dark.
"Meow —" Rollie made a threatening sound from her throat, showing a strong hostility like a wild animal.
Hao Ren looked around and asked the cat girl, "Rollie, what do you see?"
"I don't know …" Rollie sounded confused. "I can't see, but I can smell and feel it. What a terrible thing, meow …"
