The cat"s legs were unusually short, but it had a voluptuous b.u.t.t. Its yellowish fur was thick and long which contributed to its stout build.
It resembled a Persian cat, but the leopard spots on its face made it look somewhat different.
"Tsk, I knew it. You are just an ordinary cat and not the king of the beasts," Zhao Yao commented smugly, "Furthermore, you"re so fat and short. I don"t think you can even defeat a dog and you dare to call yourself the king of the beasts."
"You are the one who cannot defeat a dog, don"t come here and start spouting all your nonsense!" The cat retorted, "Are you blind? How can you call me a cat? Open your tiny Asian eyes and take a good look at me! I"m a Pallas"s cat! The king of the open fields! The savage of the desert!"
"Pallas"s cat? Is this a new breed?" Zhao Yao immediately took out his phone and went on Baidu to find out more about this cat.
The Pallas"s cat opened its mouth and bared its two, long fangs while its eyes seethed with anger, "Can you see this? I killed a tiger with this pair of fangs. The entire mountain was painted red as the tiger"s blood flooded it. If you do not release me, I"ll let you have a taste of my fangs!"
"You"re pretty c.o.c.ky, silly cat!" The smile faded from Zhao Yao"s face, and he started grabbing something in midair. It turned out to be a giant pile of s.h.i.+t, and Zhao Yao"s arms went through the gap in the cage and stuffed the pile of s.h.i.+t right into the cat"s mouth.
"Meow!" The Pallas"s cat struggled with all its might, but Zhao Yao still managed to force everything in.
"I thought you were the king of the beasts?" Zhao Yao scoffed at it and started clapping his hands, "You should just shut your mouth and continue to eat your s.h.i.+t!"
After Zhao Yao released his grip, the cat immediately reached its paws inside its mouth as it tried to get rid of the s.h.i.+t that Zhao Yao had stuffed inside. It cried, "F*cking human! What did you just do to me?"
"How did you create s.h.i.+t out of thin air?"
"I"m just teaching you a lesson. Stop acting all c.o.c.ky and pretend as if you were truly the king of all beasts!" After reprimanding the silly cat, Zhao Yao"s attention switched back to his phone as he continued researching about the Pallas"s cat.
"Oh? I didn"t know that this cat was an endangered species. Based on the information, it is quite a vicious species. I really cannot tell from the looks of it." Zhao Yao reached out his arm and tried to pet Rice Cake.
However, Rice Cake consistently evaded Zhao Yao"s hands as she looked down on him with disdain and commented, "Even cats understand the importance of licking our paws clean after stepping on s.h.i.+t. Can you please observe some basic hygiene etiquette?"
Zhao Yao bit his lower lip but hesitated from telling Rice Cake that it was just an illusion as the Pallas"s cat was around.
Zhao Yao just turned his head around and warned the cat, "Silly cat, if you continue to spout your nonsense. I"ll ensure that you cannot speak for the rest of your life!"
"Back in the days, I even resorted to eating my s.h.i.+t to survive in the wilderness! Do you think I"m afraid of s.h.i.+t?" The Pallas"s cat revealed its fangs once again and frantically bit onto the steel bars of the cage, "If not for the cage, I would have ripped your neck into two!"
"Oh, you"re so scary!" Zhao Yao said while rolling his eyes, "Based on the information online, I gather that your diet consists of rabbits, rats and some other small birds. I didn"t know that the king of the beasts consumed such animals."
The Pallas"s cat replied arrogantly, "Little brat! Release me if you dare, and you"ll see if I"m capable of killing you!"
"Hey, why are you draping the cloth over my cage? Are you afraid of me?"
"Stop! Stop it! I promise you that I will not bite you! Okay?"
"Please open the door to my cage and release me! I will even let you bite me! …"
Facing the barrage of taunts by the Pallas" cat, Zhao Yao was left with no choice but to drape the cloth over the cage once again. Deep down, he was coming up with a plan to deal with this supercat.
At this moment, Dr. Liu reappeared with the examination report in her hands.
Rice Cake was much older than Zhao Yao had expected. She did not suffer from any other illnesses or diseases other than osteodystrophy. Now, she only had to come down to the pet hospital for her periodic vaccinations.
After hearing Rice Cake"s condition, Zhao Yao"s attention gravitated towards the cat beneath the cloth. He turned his head around and asked, "Dr. Liu, what"s inside that cage? An animal had been screaming the moment I came here."
"Oh!" Dr. Liu seemed pretty fl.u.s.tered when Zhao Yao broached the topic about the Pallas"s cat, "Erm, it"s nothing! A customer brought his cat here for a regular vaccination but has not returned to collect his cat. I"m just temporarily keeping it here till he returns."
"Hmph," Zhao Yao just nodded his head and decided not to pry into the matter. He continued, "Dr. Liu, why not you add me on WeChat. I believe this cat has a rather foul temper. If you need any help with it, feel free to find me."
Dr. Liu"s legs started trembling when she noticed the mysterious smile on Zhao Yao"s face. However, she tried her best to compose herself and added Zhao Yao on WeChat. When she saw Zhao Yao leaving the hospital, a thought flashed across her head, "Don"t tell me that he knows something about it."
Dr. Liu opened her mouth and was on the verge of saying something. However, she suppressed her urge to do so when she recalled the anomaly of the Pallas"s cat.
In an office in Jiangmen city, Inspector Ho was sitting on his swivel chair with his most competent subordinate, Lin Chen, at his side.
Opposite him sat a stern-looking middle-aged man.
Inspector Ho slowly spun the ballpoint pen in his hand and asked, "So you want me to mobilize my manpower in Jiangmen city to help capture that female apostle?"
"Her name is Sun Meng," The middle-aged man reported, "Please trust me. She is extremely dangerous because of her supercats. We have stalked her all the way to Jiangmen city. Please co-operate with us in capturing her to prevent her from hurting other apostles."
"Regardless of how powerful or dangerous she is, I still cannot afford to mobilize my entire apostle force just for her alone. This is Jiangmen city. Do you how many problems we face in a day? Do you know how many dangerous apostles and their supercats are lurking around in the shadows? How do you expect me to help when you cannot even divulge information about her power?"
"Sun Meng is unlike a regular apostle." The middle-aged man replied, "However, because of the security cla.s.sification of her information, I am not allowed to divulge anything about her power until I receive the green light from my higher-ups. There is one thing I can promise you. If she starts going crazy in Jiangmen city, not even you or I would be able to stop her. Jiangmen city would be destroyed by her alone!"
Inspector Ho glanced at Lin Chen, and he responded, "There will be no end to this discussion. I"ll send three of my subordinates to you to help locate Sun Meng. This is what I can do. My subordinates have been working round the clock since the emergence of supercats. It"s not that I do not wish to help you, but I really cannot offer any more manpower."
The middle-aged man heaved a sigh of despair and whispered, "You will regret your decisions."
Rice Cake did not want Zhao Yao to touch her fur probably because of the previous incident. She just hid inside the cat bag.
Next, Zhao Yao found an inconspicuous spot and absorbed the Panamera into his belly. Then, he used Suck Me In to transport himself and Rice Cake back to his apartment by emerging from Dust Ball"s mouth.
He saw a giant shadow leaping towards him the moment he crawled out of the extradimensional belly. It was actually Matcha as he immediately latched onto Zhao Yao"s calves and pleaded, "Zhao Yao! You have to help me!"
