Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 305 Cat Movies
Zhao Zhigao suspected that he had guessed the truth.

But now wasn't the time to talk about that. Seeing the cat staring at him impatiently, Zhao Zhigao knew exactly what he needed to do. A smile appeared on his lips, and with a flick of his fingers, the clasp was replaced with another one.

"What a stupid cat! It doesn't even make a sound when its paw gets pricked by a thorn?"

Just in case, Zhao Zhigao muttered something under his breath and reached out to grab the paw pads of Lin Ge's front paws and rub them. His hand only brushed across Lin Ge's belly before the clasp disappeared into Lin Ge's fur.

At this moment, Zhao Zhigao suddenly realized that cat paws were really fun!
Soft yet slightly firm, with those adorable little toes. Wow, how can there be such interesting animals as cats in this world? No wonder cat owners are called cat slaves or poop scoopers. Tsk tsk! They really are lovable.

Zhao Zhigao was overjoyed and deeply regretted his malicious slander.

so good!
So cute!
Tsk tsk, this cat.

Zhao Zhigao's attitude toward Lin Ge changed drastically in an instant.

Looking at this cat now, it's pleasing to the eye, intelligent, and adorable no matter how you look at it.

Fortunately, he remembered that the important matter was that he gave Ling Ge a couple of hard tugs on the head before excitedly darting into the bathroom.

When he came out again, he looked refreshed and satisfied, which made the people in the repair shop suddenly realize what was going on.

Ah Gao, he must have been constipated before, right?

"hey-hey……"

Zhao Zhigao ignored these words and simply returned to the back of the tree. Seeing the cat digging in the dirt under the tree, he didn't stop it. He just stared like a madman at the cat's raised tail, watching the cat's movements stiffen before it slowly turned its head and adopted a fierce expression.

"What the hell are you looking at?!"

Lin Ge felt both ashamed and agitated, and his whole body felt uncomfortable.

He didn't want to go to the toilet in public, but what could he do? He couldn't show anything unusual in front of those people. A cat that can go to the toilet by itself, wouldn't it be obvious that it would be suspected? And now, he had to endure the shame and find a secluded place to do his personal hygiene, only to be stared at by a pervert whose anus was itchy, you bastard.

Lin Ge glared at Zhao Zhigao with his tail between his legs, feeling that coming here to infiltrate with this guy was a huge mistake.

"hey-hey……"

Zhao Zhigao had no idea what a cat was thinking. He just excitedly came over, squatted down, and held out his hand to Lin Ge: "Mimi, it's up to you. Don't delay, this intelligence is more important than the previous one, it must be delivered to the higher-ups as soon as possible."

The second clasp appeared at Zhao Zhigao's fingertips. He intended to help Lin Ge put it on, but Lin Ge slapped it away, turned around and fiddled with it for a bit, and the clasp disappeared into the cat's fur.

Lin Ge had no idea how Zhao Zhigao had managed to put the intelligence into such a small device, nor how he had saved the data without a computer. Perhaps besides its small size, the card might contain some highly sophisticated components. However, none of this mattered to a cat. After confirming the importance of the card with Zhao Zhigao again, Lin Ge turned and left without looking back, dashing into the bushes like a wild animal.

"Tsk!"

Zhao Zhigao clicked his tongue, unsure how to react to the scene before him. But it was still good news; he just hoped the cat would be more reliable and not disappoint him.

Next... I should start thinking about how to please Brother Yang.

Gee!

Lin Ge was already very familiar with Zhangzhou City, so even though the repair shop was in a relatively remote location, it was a minor issue for him.

After walking slowly along the sidewalk for more than ten minutes, the number of pedestrians gradually increased, and even the temperature warmed up a few degrees. Lin Ge soon arrived at the jurisdiction of Zhanghe Police Station and then ducked into a small alley.

Lin Ge didn't know if anyone was watching him, but he figured taking a longer route would be safer. He spent another ten minutes wandering around before finally arriving back at the Youcheng residential area near the police station.

Climbing a tree, Lin Ge gazed at the brightly lit Zhanghe Police Station in the distance, a strange feeling creeping into his heart. He even saw that the police station's courtyard was fenced off by large, brightly colored iron plates, with people moving around inside, seemingly carrying out repairs or reconstruction. This reminded him of Nie Guoqiang's plan to renovate the police station that day, but he hadn't expected Nie Guoqiang to be so efficient, starting construction before the New Year.

"Ow!"

With his head tilted back, Lin Ge let out a loud howl.

A pedestrian under the tree was startled by the strange howl. Looking around, he saw no animals or beasts. Feeling a chill run down his spine and his heart pounding, he quickly pulled his down jacket tighter, lowered his head, and hurried away.

Lin Ge ignored the man and quietly waited for the contact to arrive.

"Meow!"

Soon, three lively, half-grown cats came running towards them, meowing as they went.

As they were running, the little tabby and the snowclaw tabby bumped into each other. The two silly creatures immediately forgot about their father's shouts, glared at each other and cursed each other for a bit, and then started waving their tails and playing around.

This scene left Lin Ge speechless, but at least he still had a reliable little tortoiseshell daughter. Without hesitation, the little one came to the tree, her eyes quickly spotted the cat perched on a branch, and she swiftly jumped up, using both hands and feet to climb up.

"Meow!"

The little hawksbill turtle, which hadn't seen Lin Ge for a few days, affectionately rubbed its head against Lin Ge before quietly squatting down beside him.

"So good, so good!"

Lin Ge exclaimed in satisfaction and patted the little hawksbill turtle's head.

The little hawksbill turtle immediately became even happier, and its tail stood up like a flagpole.

It nestled closer, wanting to continue its affectionate act, but Lin Ge quickly stopped it. He then hurriedly removed the clasp he had been hiding on his body and fastened it to the little hawksbill turtle.

The little hawksbill turtle didn't struggle at all, even though it didn't understand what Lin Ge was doing. As long as it was its father, it wouldn't resist. It remained motionless as Lin Ge hid the buckle under its belly, only glancing at it curiously before moving on.

Lin Ge patted the little hawksbill turtle's head again as encouragement, and the little hawksbill turtle quickly rubbed against Lin Ge a couple more times, making a satisfied purring sound.

"Meow!"

The mother hawksbill turtle followed at the back, slowly making her way over. Ignoring her two foolish sons fighting, she looked up at Lingo and the baby hawksbill turtle from under the tree and barked twice, but made no attempt to climb up.

"Go down."

Lin Ge called out to the little hawksbill turtle, then nimbly jumped down from the tree.

As soon as he got to the female tortoiseshell cat, he saw that the cat's expression changed instantly, glaring at him fiercely as if he were criticizing the head of the household who had been away from home for a long time.

"Meow?"

The little hawksbill turtle that followed him down tilted its head to watch its mother and Lin Ge confront each other.

However, she eventually got used to it and quickly put the matter aside, squatting down and slowly licking her fur. The little hawksbill turtle even deliberately avoided the place where Lin Ge hid the clips, which was truly admirable in its intelligence.

"What are you yelling for? I'll be back in a few days."

Lin Ge was quite exasperated with the mother tortoiseshell. Why was this guy so impulsive? Besides, he didn't run off to play; he had to leave home to do something important.

"Meow!"

The mother hawksbill turtle completely ignored Lin Ge's explanation, glaring at him and letting out a piercing howl.

The sound even startled the playful tabby and snowclaw tabby. The two little guys quickly ran over and squatted down properly behind the little hawksbill turtle, staring curiously at the two big cats in front of them without moving.

"Meow!"

The mother hawksbill turtle was still throwing a tantrum and was in a very unstable emotional state.

Lin Ge figured it out; this guy was probably in heat again. Hmm...maybe?

After thinking for a moment, Lingo stepped forward and rubbed the mother hawksbill turtle's head twice with his paw.

"Don't do that! You're making me sound like a heartless man. If it really doesn't work out, just find another male cat. I promise I won't be jealous or angry, really..."

As he spoke, Lin Ge clicked his tongue, feeling somewhat inexplicably confused. It seemed as if he was wearing a bright green hat, but he didn't completely see himself as a cat, so there was no way he could give the female tortoiseshell what she wanted.

"Meow?"

To Lin Ge's surprise, the mother tortoise's emotions inexplicably stabilized after he patted her like that.

No longer agitated or throwing a tantrum, the mother hawksbill turtle tilted her head and glanced at Lin Ge. She was no longer angry and felt no physical abnormalities. So she slowly meowed, came over, rubbed her head against Lin Ge, and then wandered over to a nearby tree to rub against it and play.

"Did I... end its heat cycle?"

Lin Ge looked down at his claws in disbelief. Why was the matter resolved so inexplicably and easily?
Or is it that the guy wasn't in heat at all, but was just being affectionate and throwing a tantrum?
Lin Ge didn't understand, and of course, he didn't intend to understand. Although the companionship of the mother hawksbill turtle and the three little ones made him feel warm, if all of this came at the cost of the mother hawksbill turtle feeling uncomfortable, he really wouldn't mind giving her back her freedom.

"Damn it, why should I care about a cat's heat cycle? What does this have to do with me!" Muttering to himself, Lin Ge approached the three little guys again.

"Good girl, remember to go back to the police station and find Nie Guoqiang."

First, without hesitation, he gave the little tiger-striped and snow-clawed tiger-striped cubs a good beating, making the two little fools understand that being naughty and ignorant would result in a beating. Only then did Lin Ge pat the little hawksbill turtle's head, greet the mother hawksbill turtle from afar, and turn away gracefully.

"Meow!"

The mother tortoiseshell glanced at Lin Ge with disdain, gave a perfunctory call to indicate that he could get lost, and then continued to rub herself against the tree trunk to relieve her itch.

Lin Ge quickly disappeared into the depths of the residential area.

"Meow!"

The mother hawksbill turtle's tail drooped, her movements no longer as joyful as before, and her mood was no longer as indifferent as it had seemed.

Cats are, after all, very emotional animals.

Seeing her three kittens staring at her curiously, the mother tortoiseshell cat flicked her tail and turned to leave. The kitten walk wasn't over yet; the cattery was too noisy, so she could linger outside a little longer before going back.

"Meow!"

Surprisingly, the baby hawksbill turtle refused to follow and instead called out to its mother in another direction.

The mother hawksbill turtle turned her head and stared quietly at her daughter. Seeing that the little hawksbill turtle's expression was firm and stubborn, and that she really didn't intend to follow her, she looked up, meowed, and turned to leave without hesitation.

The kitten grew up, and eventually, it had to leave its mother. The mother tortoiseshell knew this very well. Just like the kitten now, she had suddenly decided to leave her mother when she was a kitten, and then began her wanderings, searching for a mate…

"Meow~~"

Suddenly feeling even more depressed, the mother hawksbill turtle lowered her tail to the ground, listlessly losing interest in taking a walk, and walked back towards the police station from the other side.

"Meow?"

The little tabby and the snowclaw tabby stared in astonishment at the scene.

They hadn't had enough fun yet! But seeing that their mother seemed to be in a bad mood, the two little ones could only obediently follow behind.

The three cats strolled leisurely across the bustling street, even waiting for the traffic lights to change before following the humans across the road.

Soon after returning to the police station, the mother hawksbill turtle unexpectedly saw the baby hawksbill turtle being held in Nie Guoqiang's arms.

The two cats looked at each other and both stared blankly.

"Weren't you leaving?"

"Aren't you going to continue your stroll?"

The mother hawksbill turtle and her baby hawksbill turtle stared at each other.

The two cats looked a bit strange, and Nie Guoqiang watched the scene with curiosity. But ultimately, what was in his hands was more important. He put the little tortoiseshell cat down, rubbed its little head a couple of times, and chased away the tabby and snowclaw tabby cats that were trying to play around before turning and heading towards his office.

"Meow~"

The little tabby cat looked at Nie Guoqiang's back with a sullen expression. Why could its sister be hugged by this human?

That guy... he doesn't seem to have ever hugged me before, does he?
hateful!

The snowclaw tabby seemed indifferent, but when it turned its head and saw that its cat house was covered by a mess of metal and netting, and the yard where it used to play every day had become crowded, messy and smelly, it immediately showed a very unhappy expression.

But it eventually became lazy. It let out a lazy meow at its mother, lowered its head, and crawled through the gap in the green netting to go back to its cat house to catch up on sleep.

"Meow?"

The little tabby looked around and realized that playing alone wasn't fun, so it had no choice but to follow the snowclaw tabby home.

Only the mother hawksbill turtle and her baby hawksbill turtle remained at the scene.

The two cats stared at each other, then squatted face-to-face without moving.

The workers on the other side watched this scene curiously, wondering what the two cats were communicating about. But soon he saw the mother tortoiseshell cat affectionately rub against the kitten and then slowly lick its fur, and he realized that nothing had happened.

"Tch! I thought the cats in the police station would be different from the cats outside!"

The worker pursed his lips in boredom, shivered from the cold wind, wrapped his coat tighter, and turned to continue working.

"Tsk tsk! The cats at the police station are really different from other cats, awesome!"

Wu Chengrong looked at the clips on the desk, marveling at them as he chatted with Nie Guoqiang.

Lei Hanqin had already taken the contents of the clip and was working hard to decipher it. None of them had expected that Mimi could transmit the information back so quickly and smoothly, and even the kitten that connected with them was so sensible.

"Thank you for making this trip, Lao Nie."

Wu Chengrong refilled Nie Guoqiang's cup with hot water before smiling and saying, "Things have gone so smoothly, it feels like a dream. Now it seems that Zhao Zhigao and Mimi have done a good job, and I can finally relax a little."

"I just hope this time it's good news."

Nie Guoqiang was even calmer than Wu Chengrong. Despite the significant difference in their social status, his attitude remained neither humble nor arrogant.

He didn't even respond to Wu Chengrong's lighthearted joke, but said in a deep voice, "Mimi sent the information so early, something must have happened that we don't know about. The situation in Zhang City is already bad enough, hopefully it's not some more troublesome unexpected situation."

Wu Chengrong shook his head and laughed, "Hehe... What haven't we seen in our line of work? No matter how rampant those criminals are, they'll be crushed to pieces by the iron fist of justice sooner or later! Right now, it seems that group is just a traditional drug trafficking gang. Their methods are all the same, so catching them is only a matter of time. We've even used the undercover tactic. We're willing to risk our comrades' lives to fight them to the end. What else is there to worry about?"

Nie Guoqiang shook his head and didn't say anything more.

He understood Lin Ge better than Wu Chengrong, and knew very well that the cat was opinionated but also very lazy. Unless it was something extremely important, it would never risk its life to bring back intelligence in such a hurry.

Sure enough, a moment later, Lei Hanqin walked into the office and reported some bad news.

"Another group of drug traffickers, targeting Zhangzhou City as well?"

Wu Chengrong looked down at the document in his hand. It contained only a little over a hundred words, but the secrets it revealed were shocking. "That group is even more vicious than the Yangs' side. Even the person in charge sent to Zhangzhou is a repeat offender from generation to generation? Hah... Three generations of their family have been executed, and that's become their bragging rights. It's really interesting. Lao Lei, what's your Second Brigade's opinion on the intelligence about e-cigarettes that Zhao Zhigao sent back?"

"This was indeed our oversight."

Lei Hanqin's face was grim. He lowered his head and said, "Actually, when Director Nie gave us the intelligence last time, we suspected that e-cigarettes were involved in drug use. But at that time, we only thought that someone was using e-cigarettes as a guise for drug use. We only investigated the dark and gray areas of Zhangzhou City. We didn't expect that they could do it so openly. To openly sell drug-related e-cigarettes in shopping malls is just too illogical."

Lei Hanqin looked up at Wu Chengrong and said, "To be honest, if it weren't for Zhao Zhigao's secret mark on the intelligence, I would have thought someone was joking with me. This is not a matter of common sense, but where did the other party get such audacity? Even if he can evade the sight of our police and market supervision departments, who can guarantee that those smokers won't report him? If a drug dealer becomes a local resident, isn't that the same as sitting and waiting to die?"

"..."

After thinking about it, Wu Chengrong had to admit that Lei Hanqin's explanation was indeed reasonable.

Openly selling drugs is indeed convenient and can be very profitable. But...the police can't be completely stupid, can they? How long can they keep doing this? Being open and aboveboard means leaving no trace, which the police can then follow...

"This only shows that they have an absolutely secure trump card that prevents our police from making arrests even if they discover problems."

Nie Guoqiang spoke slowly.

"The trump card?"

Wu Chengrong spoke with a chilling smile, gritting his teeth, "They really don't take the Zhangzhou anti-drug police seriously! But now that I know about this, I want to see what kind of methods they have! Lei Hanqin, investigate!"

Wu Chengrong decisively issued an order, commanding the anti-drug squad to inspect all e-cigarette counters throughout the city.

To his surprise, the test results two days later showed no abnormalities.

The e-cigarette counters in the city's major shopping malls all sell legitimate e-cigarettes that do not contain any toxic substances, as if Zhao Zhigao's message was just a joke.

This means that Wu Chengrong trusted Zhao Zhigao enough; otherwise, he might even have suspected that Zhao Zhigao had already betrayed him.

After all, Zhao Zhigao himself admitted in the report that he was forced to take drugs. He even stated that if he ever couldn't hold on any longer, he hoped the organization would not hesitate to eliminate him...
