The Calico Cat had settled in the East District courtyard.
Early in the morning, Zheng Tan had seen that fellow squatting by the flower bed facing Building B while dropping off Little Youzi at school.
Yesterday, the cat had followed Ermao to handle some matters and probably had been forcefully rejected by Ermao when trying to follow him back. Hence, changing strategies, it began guarding the entrance to the building.
Just like Li Yuanba had sought out an owner for himself, this one seemed to have similar plans, eyeing someone, and then simply showing up at their door.
Upon seeing Zheng Tan and Little Youzi, the cat just half-opened its eyes for a look, then continued to doze off. Its ears perked up, ready to spring open at the sound of the entry system's "click."
