Alien Creatures

Chapter 6 Please, are you a werewolf?

Lily scurried behind the sofa, and before that she had already turned into a werewolf.

She squatted behind the sofa, cautiously sticking out half of her head, so that her long silver hair fell to the ground, and her furry silver-white ears trembled sharply, as if she was ready to fight at any time. Hao Ren saw that this mysterious creature was still biting half a noodle and a vegetable in her mouth, which seriously damaged her somewhat "dignity", and what damaged her dignity even more was Lily's next move: she grabbed the chopsticks and pointed at the black and white cat under Hao Ren's feet, her tone almost crying: "Cat... Cat!"

"Meow?" The black and white cat tilted its head curiously and looked at the uninvited guest in the house. This meow made Lily shiver twice, but then the cat ignored Lily with the elegance that a cat should have.

Hao Ren stared at all this in amazement. His brain squeaked and squeaked before he realized what was going on. He looked at Lily, who was facing a formidable enemy, in disbelief: "You... are afraid of cats?"

"I... I'm not afraid of cats!" Lily raised her head stubbornly, like a proud fighting dog, "I'm just scared."

"Isn't it the same!" Hao Ren felt that not only his values ​​were not enough, but even his brain was not enough. He even ignored the fact that the other party was a werewolf, and a werewolf he had just met, and pointed at Lily angrily, "Please! You are a werewolf, okay?!"

"I am a werewolf!" Lily seemed to finally realize that her reaction was a bit embarrassing, and it might be that Hao Ren's eyes and words stimulated the werewolf girl a little. In short, she bravely slipped out from behind the sofa, and then pretended to return to the dining table, but actually tiptoed along the wall of the living room and slid around to the other end of the living room, "Are you sure this cat is safe?"

"What's unsafe about that?" Hao Ren picked up the black and white cat. "I've never seen such an easy-to-raise cat, right? Go away?"

The black and white cat immediately meowed softly, looking extremely obedient. Seeing this, Hao Ren was overjoyed. He stood up and took the cat-feeding bowl and filled it for his pet, and placed it on the ground next to the table: this is the cat's exclusive dining place. At the same time, Hao Ren pointed at Lili and introduced her to his cat: "Her name is Liu Lili, she's a werewolf... Uh, it doesn't seem to mean anything to you. Anyway, you just need to know that she is our new guest. Your future food depends directly on how much rent she can pay. Be respectful to your benefactor, okay?"

The black and white cat seemed to really understand what people said. It looked up and nodded reservedly to Lili, who was alert not far away, to show its approval, and then continued to eat with its head down.

Lily seemed to have finally confirmed the harmlessness of the black and white cat. She carefully rubbed back to the dining table, but still moved her noodles to a safe spot farthest from the cat. Then she suddenly remembered something: "What did you call this cat just now?"

"Go away," Hao Ren looked down at his only "family" at the moment, "Its name is Go, the one with three water drops."

Lily's silver hair and wolf ears slowly faded away as her emotions calmed down, and a look of surprise appeared on her face: "Why is it called such a strange name?!"

"This cat came to my house last year," Hao Ren laughed and introduced the origin of his cat, "I don't know what breed it is. This place is desolate and remote, with wild cats and dogs everywhere. It's normal for one or two to run into people's homes when people are not paying attention, but this cat didn't leave after it came. I chased it away several times but it was useless..."

"So you named it 'Go away', hoping that it can go away soon?" Lily asked with her eyes wide open.

"No, it likes to jump onto the bed when I'm watching TV. Every time I yell 'get out' to drive it away, it worked at first, but after a while, it would come over and rub against me when I yelled 'get out' - the cat thought it was yelling 'get out'. Then it really yelled 'get out'."

Lily listened with eyes wide open, lowered her head and ate silently, and muttered after a while: "I feel like I've come to a very strange place."

Hao Ren rolled his eyes at the sky: Is there anyone weirder than you in this house? A werewolf lady who completely subverts common sense!

It was past nine o'clock when we finished eating, and the time for the 'get out' activity arrived. The black and white kitten ran to the second floor with great pride to patrol his territory, while Hao Ren threw all the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen sink to soak and wait until tomorrow to wash them. Then he lit a cigarette and sat in the living room in a daze - continuing to sort out his experiences of the day, and sighing at his strong ability to accept.

The werewolf was running up and down the stairs very energetically, familiarizing herself with the new home she would rent for a while in an almost rude and familiar way. Every time she arrived at a place, she would sniff her nose hard as if she was memorizing the smell. Although she was currently in human form, Hao Ren couldn't help but imagine her with a pair of pointed ears and a tail swinging back and forth. In normal times, he would still say a few words if there was such a familiar tenant running around everywhere, but now he didn't want to say a word: it's normal for wolves to mark their territory after arriving at a new place. Now I just hope that this werewolf's territorial awareness can be combined with human common sense. As long as she always remembers that this is actually someone else's home and she is just a tenant, it should be fine. Considering Lily's current personality, this should not be difficult.

Anyway, no matter what happens, Hao Ren is sure that he can't beat this werewolf.

Is it right or wrong to invite a creature with high combat power that is estimated to be non-human into the house?

After calming down again, Hao Ren couldn't help thinking about this question, but in the end he still felt that his choice was right, and to be honest... he was quite looking forward to what would happen next.

This is a very suicidal mentality. A normal person should learn to seek benefits and avoid harm, instead of being curious and rashly contacting a mysterious new world that might take his life, but Hao Ren has lived this ordinary and boring life for long enough.

He likes to read novels, watch TV, and watch all kinds of bizarre fantasy stories. This is the life state that every unemployed, unmarried, and single young man with an empty life will almost inevitably have. Although he is not so middle school-aged that he has not yet felt unbearable about boring days, even if he really encounters a "yes" or "ok" dialog box suddenly popping up on the computer, his first reaction is definitely to unplug the power supply, but this can't stop him from having an eager mentality when facing some "new stimulation". This is the most common curiosity of people. Some people will be deterred when their curiosity is satisfied, but another part of people...

Probably will have the same reaction as Hao Ren.

And no matter what, he still had to beware of the strange and dangerous big bat. Although he didn't know why he was targeted by that strange thing, it was a fact that had already happened, so he could only move on. Hao Ren was not a person who would escape from reality. He would actively find ways to improve his safety factor: for example, keep the werewolf who looked very strong and seemed to be easy to talk to by his side.

"By the way, landlord, here's the rent!" Lily ran up and down the stairs for several times, and finally remembered her current identity. So she went back to the house with a kind of jumping spirit to get her wallet, counted out the rent and stuffed it into Hao Ren's hand, "According to what you wrote in the advertisement, pay three months' rent in advance, and how much for meals?"

Oh, not only is he easy to talk to, but he is also a werewolf who will pay the rent obediently - which book has ever had such a good thing?

"The meal fee is waived," Hao Ren noticed that Lily frowned when she smelled the cigarette, so he consciously put out the cigarette, "Anyway, it won't make much difference if you're the only one. Also, don't keep calling me landlord, I have a name, just call me Hao Ren."

"Got it, landlord."

"Call me Hao Ren..."

"Okay, landlord."

"... Forget it, I'll go back to my room and sleep first, you can do whatever you want, don't go into those locked rooms, and you can do whatever you want in other places." Hao Ren sighed and got up to go back to the room, and Lily turned around and left, but she had a new topic when she was halfway there: "By the way, landlord, you won't come to attack me at night, right? It seems that there are only two of us in this house, this is the first time I rent a house from a single male landlord..."

Hao Ren almost fell to the ground, then turned his head and glared at the annoying werewolf: "For my own safety, I will never attack you at night, so you can rest assured!"
