After shopping, it was almost time for dinner, so Xu Huo and his party found a place to eat.
Both the Wan family and the old lady didn't have a good appetite, while Pao Dou fell into the mentality of a big eater and ordered a lot of dishes.
Xu Huo took a sip of tea and added a cup to the old lady next to him who kept drinking water. "You don't have to be so nervous. The matter has reached this point and there is nothing you can do. Why not think about how to support yourself in old age in the future."
"The Wan family has lost several people because of you. You don't know what kind of trouble they will get into in the future. Don't always think about your family's feud. Also think about the people who were involved for no reason and how to repay the debt."
"A child was born in the Wan family recently. I think you are strong and healthy, so you might as well work in the Wan family to pay off your debts. Anyway, you are a loner and a bit twisted. Getting along with a child with a simple mind may extend your life."
"What? You don't like it? You are the only one left in your family. Instead of looking at the photos every day and remembering them, why not do something beneficial to society. If you really feel that you can't survive, you can just take a knife and find someone to die with."
"You don't like this either? You old lady is really hard to take care of."
Pao Dou was dumbfounded. He looked at the old lady's livid face and gave a thumbs up, "I thought you were taciturn, but I didn't expect you have such a poisonous mouth. You have so much energy!"
The old lady couldn't stay any longer. She slammed the table and wanted to leave. However, she tried twice, but she couldn't stand up.
Staring angrily at the man beside her, she said bitterly: "You want to torture me to vent your anger? I didn't ask you to follow me. What does it have to do with me if you can't pass the test!"
Xu Huo drank tea calmly, "You think too much. You can't just use words when you torture someone."
"Old man, just sit still and don't think about running away and not following us. Believe it or not, you will disappear from this world when you step out of Medicine City?"
The old lady was so angry that she thought he was threatening her, but at this time the long-haired player alerted: "Is there anyone else following us?"
"Others found that the Cat Beard Fruit they snatched back was of no use, so they probably wanted to come back and kill them to silence them," Xu Huo said.
The faces of Paopao Bean and others were slightly different, "I bet the thing she just took was fake!"
"How can something that is more important than one's life be handed over to a stranger so easily?" Xu Huo said calmly: "The council election is heating up. It is estimated that the following things will come to an end before the official election."
"If you wait a few days, your cat mustache will probably be useless. Naturally, no one will follow you anymore."
The old lady really couldn't sit still. She changed her previous anger and hostility and begged: "Go to the hotel manager, he knows who to give the things to!"
Xu Huo was unmoved, and after a while he said: "It's not that easy to enter Fengxing City. The hotel manager you mentioned may have been arrested. Is the Cat Beard Guo you took out true or false? Maybe it's him."
If you can identify him, do you still want to find him?"
"Or are you hiding something else?"
The old lady closed her eyes and finally said: "It's not that I deliberately hid it from you, but it's useless if you go."
"You have seen those free-range kittens in Maoguo Town. Their evolution is not obvious compared with other mutant species, and they are not very useful, but they are very smart and recognize people."
"Is your real goal a cat?" Xu Huo raised his eyebrows.
"Are you kidding?" Pao Dou looked cold, "Are you kidding us?"
The old lady who always told half-truths and half-falsehoods along the way said with great sincerity: "I didn't remember until I got to Fengxing City that my grandson Xiaofeng brought a cat with him when he came home last year. I thought it was...
It’s the town cat.”
"I don't like cats very much, but Xiaofeng said that cats are very smart and recognize people. They will also remember who treats them well. Not only will they take revenge, but they will also repay kindness."
"When I was being hunted in Fengxing City, I saw a missing cat notice on the street. The cat was the same color as the one Xiaofeng brought home."
"Xiao Feng only told me to go to the bookstore owner. If I can't find it, go to the hotel manager. If I'm unlucky and can't see anyone, just ask me to wait nearby. Someone will come to me and it will recognize me."
Everyone was silent after hearing this.
"It's a bit nonsense." Paopao Bean commented, "You can't count on people, but you count on a cat? It can't be your imagination, right?"
"Cat missing notice, the cat is missing." The long-haired player said: "The cat disappeared before. Is there any contact information on the cat missing notice?"
The encounters that had occurred over the past few days had already made the old lady doubt her life. "I can't believe it. Is the contact information on the cat search notice real?"
"So now we can only believe and look for a cat." Xu Huo concluded.
"Does anyone really take a cat as a companion?" Pao Dou didn't understand and was shocked.
"It's not necessarily possible to be partners," the long-haired player said, "Maybe someone trained them as messengers, similar to the homing pigeons and homing crows long ago."
"This is actually not a niche event. Some people have trained pets to carry items a long time ago, but most of them were for fun. No one would really use them to transport particularly important things. After all, they are animals."
"Are we going to find the cat?" The painting girl raised her head and asked, "I'm going to find the cat."
"Come back to Fengxingcheng now?" Pao Dou asked Xu Huo's opinion.
"I won't go back." Xu Huo said, "Since we can contact someone outside, we can let them come out."
"You can definitely find the cat search notice on the Jixin terminal." Pao Dou fiddled with the watch terminal and quickly found the cat search notice. After the old lady confirmed it, she dialed the contact information above.
After a while, the call was connected, and a rough and tired voice said: "My cat has been found, please don't contact me again."
"Are you sure the cat you found is your original one?" Pao Dou said: "I also found an identical cat here, don't you confirm it?"
After hesitating for a moment, the other party said: "You open the holographic communication."
Bubble Bean couldn't turn into a cat, so he had to say: "Don't look at the cat yet, have you prepared the money?"
The price listed on the cat search notice was already quite high, but he offered three times the price, and stated that if he didn't pay, he would stew the cat to replenish its health.
The person on the other end really became anxious, "I'm on a business trip right now, and I can't go back for a while. Don't mess around. It only takes half a day, no, three hours, and I can go back. I will bring the money with me!"
"Ask him for his address." Xu Huobi mouthed.
Paopao Dou followed the instructions and was told that it was near Renzhi Pharmaceutical City.
After making an appointment, Pao Dou cut off the communication, "Isn't it a coincidence that it happens to be near here?"
"It's not a coincidence," the long-haired player said: "If the cat's owner knew the inside story, it would be normal for him to hide outside his sphere of influence, but this person cannot be trusted."
