Chapter 39: School Bullying (End)

Tuanzi is already ten years old. Perhaps it was due to his early experiences, or perhaps it was just that he could only live this long.

Its physical condition deteriorated sharply, and the three of them spent more time talking to it, and it heard a lot.

For example, if the Law on Protection of Minors is amended, perpetrators will receive the appropriate punishment.

For example, Wang Youyou and Xu Chi have also become excellent lawyers, and they are best at handling cases involving campus violence.

Furthermore, when Wang Youyou was able to stand on her own and even make some money, she quit her job and took care of Tuanzi every day.

They always go home when they have time and talk about many things with Tuanzi.

From childhood stories, to the misfortunes when growing up, to meeting each other.

Sometimes Xu Chi would sigh and wonder how nice it would be if she could also meet a kitten like this.

But he turned around and denied it. After all, the past cannot be changed. If you are too immersed in the past, you will lose the future.

It could still see their faces clearly, and would occasionally bark and stretch out its paw to comfort them.

The sadness was so obvious on their faces, but they always smiled when they talked about it.

But Tuanzi really wanted to say something to them, and he did.

"Meow, meow, meow." [Don't laugh. Do you know that you look ugly now? Just cry. Don't feel sad for me.]

Although, it is also sad, no matter how many worlds it has experienced, it still cannot face it calmly.

It wanted to stretch out its paws to pat them, and rub against them to act coquettishly like before.

But, I just couldn't muster the strength.

It knew it was not going to die, but this state would make them even more sad...

"Meow... Meow?" [Can I...leave early? ]

[Sorry host, early departure from the plane is not supported. ]

Tuanzi lay in the cat bed again, watching them talk to him in a relaxed tone and watching them smile at him all the time.

But their eyes were not happy, but bloodshot, and when they looked at them again, even the corners of their eyes were red.

It suddenly realized that maybe it wasn’t that they didn’t want to cry, but just... wanted it to leave happily in the end, and wanted it to know that they would be fine.

But they couldn't lie to anyone, not even the cat, and it could sense that they were all very unhappy.

Tuanzi no longer had the energy to meow, and every day he just kept his eyes open and looked at them intently.

Finally, it received a prompt from the system.

[Host, this world will end within a month, please be prepared.]

Tuanzi was wondering in a trance, what preparations should it make?

As time passed, it slowly discovered that it could no longer see their faces clearly.

Maybe it wasn't staring at them, anyway, she heard a cry, vaguely.

She heard Wang Youyou say to it in a happy but choked voice

"Kitten, I haven't said thank you yet, right? Thank you for protecting me, giving me courage, and letting me find hope...

If, I mean if there is an afterlife, can you be our kitten again?"

It wanted to say, you're welcome, and that it couldn't be their kitten anymore.

Then, it heard Xu Chi's gentle voice again, and then a pair of hands covered it with the blanket and folded it inside.

"Kitten, I'm very happy to be with you. You are the smartest and cutest kitten I have ever seen, so I will always remember you!"

Tuanzi is very happy and likes the feeling of being praised.

This made it very proud, and it wanted to rub against Xu Chi, but it only moved slightly.

Zhao Chunlan didn't say anything, but just kept patting the dumpling gently with her hands.

Until Wang Youyou and Xu Chi went to cook, she stared at Tuanzi's cloudy eyes and slowly spoke

"Actually, I know that the thing next to my pillow was put there by you. I wasn't asleep at the time, and I thought it was Youzi who asked you to deliver it."

Tuanzi was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to realize what it was.

That was the only gift it ever gave to Zhao Chunlan, a mini cat head made of its fur.

After so many years, it actually overturned.

"I don't know where you stole it from. I was wearing that little thing to pick up Yuzi, and she actually asked me where I bought it. Otherwise, I would have been fooled by you."

Tuanzi almost wanted to hide after hearing what she said, and then he heard Zhao Chunlan talking to herself.

"Actually, I am quite grateful to you. Sometimes I wonder if I hadn't ruined Yuzu without you. I really couldn't have imagined that..."

Tuanzi was being slapped again and again. He couldn't see the people clearly and couldn't move much. After a long time, he heard a sound and Zhao Chunlan went out.

It was feeding time again. It could still swallow, but it was slow and always dropped a little, making everything dirty.

But they didn't complain and were always fed patiently to make sure they were full.

It seemed to vaguely hear them talking.

Family photo? Ah, it seems so. It’s time to take one.

They invited a photographer to their home, and Tuanzi felt like she was being hugged and heard a strange voice.

This should be the filming, right?

Tuanzi tried to open his mouth and gave an awkward smile, but it seemed that the picture was not taken, so he had to change the position to take the picture.

Just when it was about to close its mouth in frustration, Xu Chi noticed it and suggested taking a few more pictures.

Tuanzi smiled with satisfaction like a kitten

After the photo shoot, they huddled together in the cat bed and looked at the photos taken by the photographer. They all agreed that the kitten looked cute when smiling.

Tuanzi also wanted to see, but his vision was already blurry.

When they asked it whether it looked good or not, it couldn't answer. But seeing how much they liked it, it must be good-looking, right?

After the photos were developed, they gently took its paw and pressed juice squeezed from some unknown plant on it.

After pressing the button several times, the photo was finally colored. Then they wiped Tuanzi's paws and carefully put the photo into the frame.

When Tuanzi's condition became worse and worse, the three of them basically stopped going out and spent most of their time with Tuanzi every day.

Looking at this group of people, they suddenly had an idea: why not try euthanasia?

How could they bear to have the idea rejected right after it was proposed?

How could I have the heart to let Tuanzi, a cat, leave lying in the operating room?

Tuanzi often sleeps at any time. He has experienced this feeling, the feeling before death. So, he is leaving, right?

It used all its strength to climb up, and stood up again and again despite the three people's attempts to stop it.

Finally, they stopped putting Tuanzi back to rest and watched Tuanzi rub against them.

Then it lay down between them. Wang Youyou reached out and picked it up carefully. Xu Chi and Zhao Chunlan stood close to Wang Youyou.

Tuanzi rubbed against Wang Youyou again, making snoring sounds that became smaller and smaller.

When the snoring stopped, they finally couldn't help crying.

In fact, they still have a lot to say...

Wang Youyou whimpered, and Xu Chi was unable to utter a word. He just touched the still warm fur again and again.

Zhao Chunlan looked at the two people and the cat and held back her tears, not wanting them to fall.

But she has taken care of the kitten for ten years, watching it grow from that small to its current appearance.

That is, her child...

Sadness spread in an instant, and Tuanzi's stopped heartbeat would never beat again.

He would not open his eyes and continue to rub them as they expected to do to stop them from crying.

The family portrait in the photo records the people and cats in the past, but life always involves separation.
