My Cat Has Superpower?!
Chapter 53 - 53 53 Life is Tough the Cat Sighs

53: Chapter 53: Life is Tough, the Cat Sighs 53: Chapter 53: Life is Tough, the Cat Sighs “Let’s not talk about that now.”

Long Jiuri stretched out his hand and opened a drawer, taking out a file folder, “What about that orange cat?”

Upon hearing Long Jiuri suddenly mention Lu Zixun, Xiong Kang subconsciously glanced at the curled-up figure beside him and replied, “It’s sleeping right now, Ninth Brother, are you looking for it?”

As he opened the folder, Long Jiuri’s face remained calm as he read the information inside.

The entire A4 sheet was filled with everything that had happened to Lu Zixun since his arrival in this world.

“Let it sleep, no need to call it.”

While reviewing the information, Long Jiuri’s eyes became three shades deeper, “Does Yaya like this cat a lot?”

“Mhm.”

Nodding, Xiong Kang hesitated before speaking, “Yaya misses you and your wife deeply, Ninth Brother, have you been able to see her lately?”

Upon hearing this, Long Jiuri placed the documents back on the desk, his gaze dimming slightly.

He sighed, “Without dealing with the Blood Worm Queen, I can’t spend more time with Yaya, you know that.”

He turned to look at Long Ya.

Even in her sleep, her little brows were furrowed.

Xiong Kang felt a twinge of guilt, “Can’t you see her secretly?”

At this suggestion, a contemplative look crossed Long Jiuri’s face, his fingers tapping lightly on the desk as if he were pondering something.

Suddenly, there was silence on the other end of the phone?

Knowing that Long Jiuri was considering the viability of this matter, Xiong Kang didn’t rush him, quietly waiting for Long Jiuri’s decision.

“It’s possible, but Yaya would have to come to me.”

After a while, Long Jiuri finally spoke.

It wasn’t that Long Jiuri didn’t miss Long Ya; that was impossible.

However, considering his daughter’s safety, Long Jiuri could bear not to see her.

But now the situation was different.

STO was severely weakened, and the abnormal creatures hadn’t fared any better.

After weighing his options, Long Jiuri felt this was an opportunity to see his daughter.

“To the headquarters?”

This question raised Xiong Kang’s eyebrows, “Wouldn’t that be dangerous if it’s at the headquarters?”

“Who told you it’s at the headquarters.”

The corner of Long Jiuri’s mouth lifted into a slight smirk on the other end of the phone, “After such a big incident, you definitely need to investigate at STO, let’s meet there.

Remember to bring the orange cat.”

Hearing Long Jiuri’s words, Xiong Kang immediately understood and said with a smile, “All right, Ninth Brother, I got it.”

…

“The Blood Worm Queen must be inside one of these buildings nearby, exactly where your Mother Sword withdrew and we failed to investigate.”

“In that case, we need to send someone to secretly investigate the enterprises within these buildings.”

“Yes, as to who exactly we dispatch and how we conduct the investigation, we still need to discuss the details with Elder Zeng.”

Lu Zixun, half in a daze, heard the conversation between Xiong Kang and a man.

Their voices were loud, disturbing his sleep, and he covered his ears with his paw in irritation.

“At the same time, we must also be aware that Yaya’s identity has been exposed, and it’s always risky for her to stay in Chunhua City.”

“Can’t we awaken Yaya’s superpower?

Ninth Brother, you and your wife are both Superpower Users…

Logically, Yaya should be able to awaken her superpower too.”

“She’s too young, forcibly awakening her superpower could be life-threatening.”

That’s it, no more sleep.

As their voices grew louder and more irritating, Lu Zixun reluctantly opened his eyes.

Upon opening his eyes, he saw a dignified man looking at him with a smile.

Lu Zixun instantly felt a chill, who was this, staring at him like that, what did he want to do?

“Ding—Curiosity Value from Long Jiuri +500.”

“Are you awake?”

Lu Zixun nodded unconsciously to Long Jiuri’s smiling voice.

Jiuri…

He had heard this name from Zeng Haoyang’s mouth before; if not mistaken, this man should be Long Ya’s father.

He rose, and the blanket slid to the floor, Lu Zixun shook his fur.

He leaped up with a push from his hind legs, landing on the desk in front of Long Jiuri, raising his head and sizing up Long Jiuri.

As Lu Zixun sized up Long Jiuri, Long Jiuri also scrutinized Lu Zixun, one man and one cat locking eyes.

After a long moment,

The silent Long Jiuri finally spoke, “Should I call you Orange Cat, or…

Lu Zixun?”

Hearing his own name pronounced by Long Jiuri, Lu Zixun was taken aback.

How did this man know his name?

When he had spoken to Lin Qiang, it was all very vague.

Watching Long Jiuri waiting for an answer, Lu Zixun fell silent for a moment before activating his translator device, “Either is fine.”

“Why would a cat have a human’s name, did Lin Siyin give it to you?”

With his arms crossed on the desk, Long Jiuri stared at Lu Zixun with a deep gaze.

“I like the name; is there a problem?”

Confronted with the somewhat aggressive Long Jiuri, Lu Zixun responded evenly.

Hearing Lu Zixun’s retort, Long Jiuri couldn’t help but curve the corners of his mouth upward.

Sure, cats have tempers too.

Shaking his head, Long Jiuri picked up his aura and said with a smile, “Of course it’s possible.

I was just curious.”

Lu Zixun, who was licking his paw and cleaning his face, did not respond to Long Jiuri upon hearing this.

He looked around.

Where had Xiong Kang brought him?

“This is the STO Investigation Bureau.”

Saying this casually, Long Jiuri took out a file and threw it in front of Lu Zixun: “Can you understand this?”

Lu Zixun tilted his head slightly and saw his own photo on the file at first glance.

Was this his profile at STO?

After staring at it for a while, Lu Zixun looked up at Long Jiuri: “Why are you showing me this?”

“Just now, Xiao Kangning told me…

Oh, Xiao Kangning is Xiong Kang,” Long Jiuri explained and continued, “You were a bit panicked when facing Abnormal Creatures.”

Lu Zixun frowned slightly at this non-sequitur.

After thinking for a while, he shook his head: “I’m just a little cat.

A task like maintaining peace is too heavy for me.”

“Little cat, huh?” Hearing Lu Zixun’s words, Long Jiuri chuckled: “Little cats don’t transform into big cats, and their strength isn’t that great either.”

Seeing that Lu Zixun seemed to be growing more nervous, Long Jiuri quickly added, “Don’t be afraid, I don’t intend to harm you.

I just want to say that your panic stems from a lack of strength.”

“This task truly exceeded your capabilities, and STO will provide you with appropriate compensation.”

So it was about compensation.

Lu Zixun breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Lu Zixun muttered to himself about Long Jiuri, ‘Compensation is just compensation.

Why so serious, trying to scare a cat to death?’

“The compensation will be given to you by Xiong Kang later.

The main reason I wanted to see you today was to ask you to…

complete a task.”

Thinking about the difficulty level of this task, Lu Zixun immediately shook his head to refuse.

Life is hard enough, and a cat’s life is even harder.

One shouldn’t make the same mistake twice.

“Got cold feet?” Seeing Lu Zixun shake his head without hesitation, Xiong Kang, who had his arms crossed and stood to the side, teased him.

“As a public servant, I’m entitled to take time off to rest,” Lu Zixun said calmly, glancing at Xiong Kang.

Got cold feet?

Not at all.

Lu Zixun stated his feeling was from the heart.

“If you want to take time off, you can do so after the task is over.

Then you can take as many days off as you like,” Long Jiuri said softly, with his gaze on Lu Zixun: “Don’t worry, this task isn’t dangerous.

It’s just asking you to take on an advertisement.”

To validate Long Jiuri’s words, Xiong Kang nodded in confirmation, “It’s an advertisement for cat food.

If you do well, you might even become a star.”

“???” Hearing the two of them, Lu Zixun was full of question marks.

What were these two talking about?

Seeing Lu Zixun’s obvious confusion, Long Jiuri took out another file and handed it to Lu Zixun.

“This is about the advertisement you are going to take on.

It’s a request for proposals from Yuesha Co., Ltd.”

Glancing down, Lu Zixun suddenly felt something was amiss.

He flicked the document aside with his paw, and quickly shook his head, “I refuse.

I want to go home.”

“Clang!”

“Ding—Threat level from Xiong Kang detected: +100.”

Just as Lu Zixun finished speaking, a glint flashed in his eyes.

Xiong Kang, with his arms still crossed, unsheathed his Mother and Child Dual Swords with a mischievous smile at Lu Zixun.

“I’m just a little cat.” Seeing the threat coming his way, Lu Zixun said seriously, “Let me first see what the advertisement is about.”

“Ding—Smile value from Long Jiuri detected: +500.”

What in the world was ‘smile value’?

Lu Zixun turned to look at Long Jiuri and, seeing his serious expression, immediately understood what this ‘smile value’ was.

The funniest thing was the desire to laugh but having to restrain it.

His whiskers twitched twice.

Knowing the wisdom of seeing through things without saying them, and still being able to be friends, Lu Zixun focused on the document.

Looking more carefully this time, Lu Zixun realized that wasn’t this the same woman he met in the parking lot, Yue Sichen, who gave him something to eat?

Well, it was quite tasty.

“What does this tender mean?”

After reading through it carefully, Lu Zixun looked up, puzzled at Long Jiuri.

“It means finding a cat that can cooperate to make a promotional advertisement,” Long Jiuri pondered for a moment before adding, “Oh, it might also serve the purpose of creating a corporate persona.”

“…

Is that what I asked?” Lu Zixun fiddled with his ear with his paw, a bit exasperated: “I mean, STO is a big agency.

It wouldn’t care about the little money from a commercial, would it?”

Xiong Kang, leaning against the wall with his arms folded, shook his head and sighed, “Not being the head of the household means not knowing the cost of living.

Even a large family needs some extra income.”

Both were deliberately avoiding his question.

Lu Zixun’s tail hit the metal table, leaving a dent: “Don’t I have the right to know the main content of the mission?”

Long Jiuri and Xiong Kang exchanged glances and smiled at each other.

Long Jiuri said, “Just kidding.

The task indeed is to take on the advertisement, but more importantly, we want you to investigate…

Yuesha Group.”

“Investigate Yuesha Group?”

Recalling what he had overheard by chance, Lu Zixun licked his nose: “Is the Blood Worm Queen hiding in this group?”
