Chapter 210: After the modification: Chapter 210 The Rat

"Meow—"

The harsh cry of a cat echoed through the quiet alley, followed by the heavy sound of something falling.

With a faint glance at the black cat perched on the wall, its pupils glowing an eerie green, he loosened his grip and threw the unconscious man beside the other man who had fallen to the ground just a moment ago.

Perhaps because the movement was too large, as the man hit the ground, the black cat on the wall hissed and arched its back, its black fur standing like cold needles, and its ghostly green eyes stared cautiously at the boy it perceived as dangerous.

Noticing the black cat’s gaze, the boy slightly turned his eyes towards the cat, a sneer echoing in the empty space, and a sinister voice slowly said, "What are you afraid of? You who live in darkness and I who dwell in darkness, aren’t we used to those cowardly mice who fear for their lives..."

Clapping his hands, he frowned disdainfully, hands in his pockets, and strolled to the two men, his cold star-like eyes staring indifferently at them. A flash of blue light flickered, and he stepped on one of them, his voice chilling and devoid of warmth, "Tell that person, I’m right here waiting for him. If he has the guts, he can come at me directly, playing dirty is fine too, but don’t mess with my family, or else..."

His eyes narrowed, and his red lips curled into a wicked smile, "Then I’ll play with him slowly, until—"

"Until he dies!"

The boy slowly walked out of the alley, his footsteps rhythmically echoing within, growing fainter and fainter...

"Meow—" Feeling that the person who made it so alert had finally left, the black cat tilted its head, glanced at the two men lying in the alley, meowed once, then turned and leapt off the wall.

"Brother, you’re back!"

From a distance, Xiaoyuan saw Bi Xia carrying a bag across the street, stood on tiptoe, and waved while shouting loudly, "Brother, Brother~~~"

The previously expressionless face gradually softened upon seeing Xiaoyuan. He raised the bag in his hand, took his hand out of his pocket to make a waving gesture, smiled as he crossed the road, and embraced the approaching Xiaoyuan, "What’s the rush? Is it because you saw this bag of snacks?"

Xiaoyuan pouted and hummed, "No way, I missed you and was worried about you."

He tilted his head innocently, "What did you just do, brother?"

Bi Xia squinted his eyes, his expression unchanged, and said calmly, "Just dealt with a few rats."

"Rats?" Xiaoyuan’s eyes widened, "Why would you deal with rats, isn’t that a cat’s job?"

"Indeed," Bi Xia said, "So I left them all to the cats there, although... even cats might find them too dirty."

"Then why did you go buy snacks?" Xiaoyuan asked, puzzled.

Bi Xia patted Xiaoyuan’s head, "Why so many questions? Are you called ’Why-So-Many-Questions’?"

"I’m not called ’Why-So-Many-Questions’, I’m called Bi Xiaoyuan... no! I’m called Bi Yuan!"

"Hahaha," clear laughter rang out, Bi Xia laughed and took Xiaoyuan’s hand, "You are Bi Xiaoyuan, stop struggling."

"I’m Bi Yuan!" Xiaoyuan pouted, looking at Bi Xia, his face blushing uncontrollably when he saw Bi Xia’s doting expression. He lowered his head and muttered softly, "Alright, whatever you say, brother... but, only you can call me Xiaoyuan~~"

With keen hearing, Bi Xia caught everything Xiaoyuan muttered, laughed, and led Xiaoyuan into the store while saying, "This bag of snacks is to encourage you for the sports day. Check if there’s anything else you want to eat, we’ll go buy it."

Hearing it was for him, Xiaoyuan instantly beamed a smile, his voice soft and milky, "Okay~~~ I love snacks the most!"

Bi Xia curved his lips slightly, "I love them the most too..."

With the elder brother buying snacks for the younger, "brother" giving "brother" snacks, he looked up at the sky, Fourth Brother, I want some chocolate...
