Chapter 847 Cat Hell
Lu Jingxing smiled: "Probably a little bit..."
He also wondered, was there a cat cafe near the bar street? He doesn't even know?
After the two took inventory, they drove and prepared to set off.
According to the location posted by Officer Hu, he was found quickly.
This store is located behind the store where the bar owner called the police. The original store was on the second floor of the entire building and was connected to the back of the second floor of the bar.
Fortunately, the front door of the cat cafe is locked, and you can't see what's going on inside at all from the outside. If the bar owner hadn't found out, all the little guys inside would probably have died inside.
However, the current situation is not much better.
The police officer at the scene came downstairs to pick up Lu Jingxing and took him upstairs.
The bar owner saw Lu Jingxing and introduced the situation to him: "I actually called for help, but they said the cat was an owner and could not be rescued unless it was particularly dangerous, so I had no choice but to call the police. …”
Lu Jingxing nodded after hearing this. The same was true for their rescue team. It was an owner-occupied cat, and since it was indoors, there was really no way for them to break down the door and come to help unless the owner called for help.
"This boss probably ran away years ago. At first, I helped deliver food to them, but this is not a long-term solution. What needs to be solved..." He led Lu Jingxing upstairs. Walk.
The higher you go, the stronger the pungent stench becomes, and you can imagine how bad the situation inside is.
Ji An couldn't help but cover his nose, which made the bar owner miserable.
The bar owner continued: "After the new year, the water and electricity will be cut off in this shop. There are a lot of cats. The smell of excrement is nauseating. The weather will gradually get hotter. There are already flies circling around the rotten food inside. ”
He led the way with a flashlight and pushed the door open forcefully: "We opened it with the consent of the police. This house belongs to some company, but they haven't come forward. We can't even contact the landlord..."
After the door was opened, Lu Jingxing, even though he was wearing a mask, was used to seeing so many big scenes, he still couldn't help but retched - the mother cat and the kitten had been locked up in the cage for who knows how long, and the kitten's body was lying in the cat litter. In the basin.
This scene can be described as "cat hell".
Seeing people coming in, the cats gathered around them. They were not afraid of people, they were just hungry. No matter whether these people would hurt them or save them, they just wanted to eat and survive.
Lu Jingxing didn't even dare to look at the pair of eyes asking for help, he was so sad.
Most of the cats in the store were stuffed animals, with a few British shorthair cats. Lu Jingxing also saw a long cat, Garfield, in the corner.
Because they have not been taken care of for too long, the little ones are very thin, especially the long-haired cats, whose hair is all tangled. It turns out that the noble princesses have become destitute stray cats, even worse than some stray cats.
Lu Jingxing didn't say much and cooperated with the police to clean up a little first.
Then he asked Ji'an to go to the car and get cat food and canned food. No matter how he dealt with these little guys, at least he was here and let them eat first.
As soon as the cat food was put away, the little ones came running over in a swarm.
Even the thinnest ones use all their strength to push forward.
"They all have some kind of physical problems. They need a comprehensive physical examination. Can I contact their owner and how to deal with it?" Lu Jingxing finally stopped.
The two policemen, the hotel owner, and Ji An joined him. After cleaning a little, they began to discuss how to deal with these little guys.
"I have a phone number, but he hasn't responded much to previous calls. I don't know..." the bar owner said and took out his mobile phone.
"Give me the phone and I'll call him..." the police officer said.
After calling several times in a row, the boss finally answered the call. When he heard that it was the police who called him, his attitude immediately changed: "It's not that I won't handle it, I really can't handle it..."
"Can you come here now? We have asked another boss to come over. Let's discuss it..." The police had no choice. Officer Hu told him about Lu Jingxing's situation.
Lu Jingxing looked at these little guys, and he knew that the boss definitely didn't want to throw them away directly. After all, they were all bought with money, and they were all breed cats, so he was afraid they would have to talk about them later.
Not long after, the boss hurried over.
He came in through the front door. After entering, he looked tired and quickly came up to share cigarettes with everyone.
"I'm sorry, I really can't help it. The child at home is sick, or...well, leukemia. My wife passed away last year, and I am powerless now..." He said in a crying voice as soon as he came up. .
This surprise was unexpected by everyone.
The bar owner swallowed all his complaints, and patted the cat cafe owner on the shoulder: "..."
Everyone didn't know what to say.
It was the police officer who broke the silence: "How is the child doing now?"
"In the hospital, oh, it's okay, I..." The man choked up a little, but still smiled pretending to be strong.
He squatted down and touched a Fold-eared Shorthair near him: "Little Lizi, I'm sorry for making you suffer..." Then he raised his head and said, "I don't have money to buy cat food for them now. The rent for the store is due this month. I really have no choice. The child’s situation is sudden and I was caught off guard..."
The police officer glanced at Lu Jingxing, and Lu Jingxing immediately understood: "You guys, I dote on people with families, and I also have cat lovers. In your case, I... I will take all these cats. You can quote me a price..."
Lu Jingxing would not normally do business like this, but he could indeed see that this boss was really difficult.
Therefore, even if it was out of humanitarianism, he wanted to help him.
The boss looked at him gratefully: "Thank you, I did buy this at a high price. Alas, when I did it, it was also for my wife's last wish. She had wanted to start a cat cafe before, but I also Unexpectedly, it turns out that without experience, it is really impossible to do it, let alone..."
The boss said one after another that he still had some savings and when his wife was dying, he opened this cat cafe in order to fulfill her last wish.
At the beginning, the business was okay. Later, because I didn’t know much about this industry, the cats became seriously ill. Later, it became more and more difficult. In the end, I was just barely making ends meet.
After his wife left, he hired someone to help look after the store. However, at the end of last year, his child was suddenly diagnosed with leukemia. This was the last straw for him, and the store could no longer continue.
