The mouse was drunk and told a joke about looking for a cat.

One day, a mouse was drunk and walked unsteadily. It is holding a wine bottle, which contains the rest of the wine. The mouse got lost and couldn't find its way home.

Suddenly, it saw a cat passing by. The mouse was very scared, but it came up with a clever plan-it wanted to ask the cat for help.

The mouse said to the cat in a trembling voice, "Mr. Cat, I'm lost." Can you help me find my way home? " The cat looked at the mouse, then at the bottle in its hand, and replied, "Sure, what's in your hand?" The mouse said, "This is my only property. I will give it to you as a thank-you gift. "

Hearing this, the cat immediately replied, "no, no, it's my duty to help you." I don't need any thank-you gifts. " Let me tell you the way home: go straight ahead until you see a big hole, and that's your home. "

The mouse thanked the cat very much for its help, and then went straight ahead according to the cat's instructions. Soon, it saw a big hole and jumped in without hesitation.

Unfortunately, this hole is the cat's home. As soon as the mouse entered the room, the cat jumped up and caught it. The mouse was frightened and asked the cat, "Why did you do this?" Didn't you say it was your duty to help me? "

The cat replied, "Yes, my duty is to catch you. That's why I help you find your home!" " "

The point of this joke is that the mouse misunderstood the cat's intention and thought that the cat was really helping it. It turns out that cats are actually looking for excuses to catch mice. And the cat's reaction also revealed this truth.
