Chapter 984: Stalker

The first time Zhang Zian heard about the Shimen Street Primary School, he had considered whether or not he should go to the place and take a look; however, he was about to leave for the capital and he needed to pack a lot of things. Furthermore, the internal team in the film group needed to prepare a statement for the media and had given him some lines to memorize.

Shimen Street Primary School was not far from Zhonghua Road Primary School––they could be considered neighbors––so upon hearing Wang Yaning mention the situation again, he knew that Vladimir was definitely planning on making a trip there itself. Since Zian wasn’t doing anything, he decided to follow along.

Wang Yaning said, “It can’t be that you’re going to be doing bad things, right? I’m warning you––if you want to do anything bad, go alone. Don’t bring Little Celery along.”

“I’ll go by myself. Little Celery, you should go back.” Zhang Zian had not planned on bringing Little Celery along. If they really met a young cat that had been harmed a lot, it might scar the girl.

Little Celery was still hesitating a bit, but Wang Yaning urged, “Little Celery, you have to come here in the afternoon for duty. It’s better if you go back. Come over earlier, after you finish your meal. Otherwise, there will be no one taking care of the hamster.

“Then… Brother Store Manager, I’ll go. Bye-bye.” Little Celery waved at Zhang Zian.

Zhang Zian said, “Bye-bye! Be careful on the way back. Go directly home, and don’t talk to strangers or enter their cars.”

“I know!” Little Celery quickly jogged off.

“All right, then I’ll go, too. Are you not leaving yet?” Even though Zhang Zian really wanted to leave Wang Yaning, who was scary to provoke, he needed to still pretend.

“Do I need you to care about what I’m doing? Of course I also need to go, but I won’t go with you!” Wang Yaning hugged her chest with both arms, backing away like she was on guard in order to get further away from him.

Zhang Zian was helpless and called out, “Vladimir, let’s go now.” The human and the cat walked towards the entrance to the school.

“Where did you go just now? Your whole body is dirty,” Zhang Zian inquired.

It raised up a front paw and rubbed its face. Instead of rubbing its face clean, it rubbed it until it was even dirtier. It said, “I was dealing with the stray cats nearby. I wanted to see where they usually ate, where they rested, and then I wanted to dissuade cats that were fighting from fighting in the territory.”

“You were quite busy.” Zhang Zian did not think that in such a short time it would be able to do so much.

It sighed and said, exasperated, “Really, even though they are all poor, middle-class peasants, they fight so hard for the remnants. They are not bandits who occupy the mountains as kings, so why are they fighting for territory? At present, the big enemy is in front, and stray cats should unite against the outside world. First, they should concentrate their efforts on solving the main external contradictions. The internal contradictions among the cats can be solved slowly… To put it bluntly, it’s the mindset of small-scale peasants that cause them to make a fool of themselves.”

Zhang Zian was speechless. It was such a pity his middle school politics teacher died so early.

“However, most of the stray cats here understand logic. After my persuasion, they are willing to leave behind their suspicions from before and unite together. They joined The National United Front Against the Holy Cat Statue,” it added. “Oh, right, I just thought of the name. It doesn’t have any special meaning.”

Before Zhang Zian managed to say something insulting, Vladimir seemed to have noticed something and turned its head to take a look. “The little girl who’s constantly tense and class conscious is following you.”

That was such a long way of describing a person… Zhang Zian said in his heart he did not know any girl that was class conscious… He turned his head back to look and, around 50 meters behind him, a primary school girl was suspiciously following him, using the trees on the sidewalk as cover.

It was Wang Yaning. Even if she turned into ashes he would still recognize her.

Zhang Zian had just followed the human traffickers a short time ago. He couldn’t let the pedestrians around him find out that he was tracking more. Otherwise, he would be reported every minute. As long as the pedestrians around him were not blind, they could all see who Wang Yaning was tracking, but they just laughed and felt that it was funny. People’s tolerance for naughty children was really too high.

He complained secretly, saying that naughty children were both male and female. How could she insistently feel that he was perverted? Did he have a label on his forehead?

“Actually, I quite admire her,” Vladimir said. “She is not lacking in ambition, courage, and action. Although mistakes are made occasionally, young people make mistakes. It doesn’t matter as long as she doesn’t stand for the wrong team.”

“I don’t admire her. She’s really not cute at all!” Zhang Zian said angrily.

If he had enough space, he knew he could lose her, but he saw the main gate of Shimen Street Primary School just ahead of them. She also knew his destination was the bamboo forest behind the school, so it would be very hard to lose her.

There was no way… He decided to just pretend that he did not know. Anyway, he was not doing something illegal or morally wrong. If he was upright, he was not scared that his shadow was not, and he would not let her find anything wrong with him.

There were also guards at the gate of Shimen Street Primary School. Zhang Zian would not be able to get it, but the good thing was that he did not need to. He just followed the walls of the school and turned towards the back.

Very quickly, a medium-sized bamboo forest appeared in front of them.

The bamboo forest covered an area about the same as three, 400-meter runways and its shape was irregular. It was likely set up in order to provide a suitable place for sports activities for the people nearby. The density of bamboo was not high. There were some small spaces in the middle. The middle-aged and old people nearby liked to play diabolo, kick shuttlecock, and practice taijiquan in the morning. They were all popular sports among the people of Binhai City.

Because the floor was loess, it was not flat. On sunny days, it was all soil, and on rainy days, it was all mud. Temporarily, there were not aunties dancing in the parade square.

According to the [Collapse The World], he or she had found the kitten whose eyes had been dug out.

The bamboo forest was close to the back door of Shimen Street Primary School. It was a small campus, so sometimes when they were having Physical Education lessons, the teacher would bring the children to the bamboo forest. Normally, during such lessons, there were children who came to play there. Their timing worked out so they were not there at the same time as the older people.

The current rumors that such cruel actions were actually done by primary school children made people’s hearts go cold.

However, because it was the weekend, the pupils did not have classes. The bamboo forest was so quiet that he could not hear any noise. There were only rustling sounds like the sounds of the tide when the wind blew into the bamboo forest.

Vladimir seemed to notice something and used its claws to pull aside the grass nearby. It pulled out a few pieces of cat food.

Zhang Zian squatted down, picked up the cat food, and pressed on it; he then put it under his nose to sniff. He was a professional, after all, and as soon as he pressed and smelled it, he could tell that this was the cheapest domestic cat food on the market. It was probably sold in bulk.

It seemed that the rumors were true: There were indeed middle-aged and old people feeding stray cats. Middle-aged and old people had always been more thrifty, so they were reluctant to buy good cat food. They only took the cheapest food to feed the cats.
