The cat had gotten used to being alone in its empty bed. In its drowsy state, it heard the creaking sound of the door being slowly pushed open, but it didn't pay any attention. It just rolled over and moved to the side.
"Chen Yan, why are you so late? If you stay this late again, I won't leave the door open for you. You won't be able to get in and will have to sleep at Naomi's..."
While moving to a new spot and complaining, the cat didn't forget to scratch its belly, with a few shiny black and white hairs fluttering around.
Recently, every evening, Chen Yan, the beautiful class monitor, would post a message at the dormitory entrance right on time, startling Hua Miao several times.
Because Naomi can blend perfectly into the night with her skin tone, as long as she doesn't open her mouth, probably very few people in the entire base can see her.
Whenever Chen Yan saw Naomi, he would feign concern and tell her to rest early, then grin and eagerly approach her.
"Hmph, shallow humans! Little do they know that without a woman in their hearts, one can draw their sword with divine skill. Do you think my powerful moves came from somewhere? They were all created by me, day and night, under the moonlight, through solitary contemplation and deep thought!"
The cat muttered to itself, waiting for Chen Yan to get into bed so it could lie on his stomach and sleep. But this time, it waited and waited and waited but Chen Yan didn't come. Instead, it heard a rustling sound of insects chirping.
"Hey Chen Yan, you didn't go off to the woods with Naomi to catch bugs in the middle of the night, did you? I'm warning you, you better not let me see you, or I won't mind having some midnight snacks—"
Halfway through the sentence, the cat, which had been lazily curled up in a ball a second ago, suddenly exerted its strength, which was hidden by its fur. It leaped off the bed in just half a second and then threw the deliberately crumpled blanket out with a paw.
Anyone who can sneak into a hideout silently in the middle of the night is definitely not an ordinary petty thief.
Hua Miao dared not neglect its duty; with Chen Yan absent, the wealth they had accumulated throughout their lives could only be protected by it.
Taking advantage of the blanket obscuring their view, Hua Miao nimbly hooked her tail by the bedside and drew her katana, which she never took off, even when bathing or sleeping.
With the weapon in hand, the blanket fell just in time to cover the petty thief who hadn't yet reacted.
This quilt is very thick; Chen Yan brought it from the Old World on purpose. He has a little-known habit: he only feels at ease sleeping under such a thick and heavy quilt.
As the two bulging balls under the blanket appeared, the cat's dark eyes narrowed to almost a straight line. The moment it landed, it unleashed a powerful spinning attack, aiming to cleave both the blanket and the little thief in two.
"Hmph! You're unlucky to have stolen from your Flower Cat Grandpa!"
Just as it was grinning maliciously, preparing to use the little thief as a sacrificial knife, a furry tail suddenly peeked out from the gap in the blanket.
Hua Miao was stunned, and the katana in her hand suddenly hovered in the air.
Then, it watched in disbelief as a Dettel Lynx, with dark orange fur, charming brown stripes, and adorable cat paw patterns on its belly, awkwardly and frightenedly backed out of the blanket.
That's right, its long tail comes out first, then its butt, then its slender waist, and finally its little head. If the cat wanted to, it could easily cut it horizontally into eight pieces, and then vertically into eight pieces.
But Flower Cat just stared in astonishment at the timid Dettel Lynx in front of her.
It's easy to tell from the pheromones emanating from the other animal that it's a female Dettel lynx.
"I knew it! The old cat grandpa next door wasn't lying to me. Little Meow Meow, the Dettel Lynx from the New World, really doesn't wear pants; her two furry legs are just sticking out!"
On the surface, the flower cat held the knife still, looking like a calm and collected expert, but in reality, it was using all its strength to suck the fat off its belly, revealing the abdominal muscles that had been submerged in a sea of fat for years.
Looking at the petite lynx, which was no more than a meter tall, Flower Cat remained silent, but mentally gave it a score.
"Their ears are slightly more pointed than mine, and they have long, intelligent fur. Full marks."
"The pupils are golden, which matches my dark pupils perfectly. A perfect score."
"The paw pads on the limbs are pink, and I love pink the most, so I give it a perfect score."
"The face, neck, and abdomen are covered with a ring of fluffy, soft white hair. If it all blends together, wow, you're wearing a bikini, aren't you? A total hit!"
"Perfect score plus perfect score plus perfect score plus a jackpot, wow, this is just too amazing!"
Flower Cat is almost blinded by beauty.
Before it could even say hello, another small and equally adorable Dettel lynx emerged from under the covers.
The two Dettel Lynxes looked almost identical in size and appearance, with no difference in fur patterns. Even their panicked eyes were remarkably similar, and their pheromones were virtually indistinguishable.
Flower Cat is certain that these are a pair of Dettel Lynx sisters.
"I knew God wouldn't let any cat down. Knowing I'd been lonely for over a decade, He specially sent me a pair of beautiful Dettel Lynxes. Alright, watch me unleash my divine power and capture them!"
Just as Hua Miao cleared her throat to greet them, she saw the two Dettel Lynxes opposite her simultaneously release their paws. Hua Miao subconsciously looked down and saw the faint light turn into an extremely dazzling light in just half a second.
Completely oblivious to the fact that the cat was only thinking about how to eat the roast duck that was offered to it, the cat was blinded by the flashing effect of the flashing winged insect. Its pupils changed shape uncontrollably, and tears streamed down its face.
The Dettel Lynx sisters looked at the flower cat, who was standing motionless with tears streaming down her face, exchanged a glance, and were both hesitant to approach.
Based on their insect-rearing experience, even an Anjanathus would cry out and shake its head in discomfort if it were exposed to such a close-up flash of light, but why didn't this fat cat make any move?
They hesitated, unsure whether to go up or run, while the cat's ears twitched slightly. Hearing nothing, he already guessed what they were thinking.
The cat fell to the ground and rolled around, screaming in pain.
That's more like it.
The Dettel Lynx sisters breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, each took out a vine, and rather clumsily tied up the completely unresisting Flower Cat.
The binding method was both crude and wild. Even though her eyes were stinging, the cat could tell that they were using clumsy kidnapping techniques. Moreover, the vines binding it were just ordinary vines from the forest. The two Dettel lynx sisters didn't even notice that they had missed binding a paw after binding it for a long time.
Its left paw was deliberately hidden in the belly fat.
Once the stinging in her eyes subsided and her vision returned, the flower cat extended its sharp claws, hooked onto the vines, and was about to sever them with a single claw when it suddenly heard one of the Dettel Lynx speak.
"Boss, we've successfully caught this fat cat!"
"Hmm, don't get too excited yet. Getting it back is still a problem. It's too fat for the two of us to lift. Here's what we'll do: I'll stay here and you run back and get some more girls. Then we can work together to carry it back!"
The cat paused in its action of hooking the vines.
"Call more sisters, call more sisters, call more sisters..."
It silently retracted its claws and even tightened the vines binding it.
Two roast ducks are certainly delicious, but it has always had a big appetite since it was a baby, so two might not be enough. It would be great if it could eat more.
