Am I A God?

A few hours later, Project X stepped barefoot on the cement road. Coffee followed behind him, looking at Project X pa.s.sionately with full admiration and respect for him.

However, X just shut his eyes and twitched his ears and nose as if he was sensing something.

“Have they caught up?”

In the distance, the sound of an armed helicopter gradually approached them as all kinds of kind thoughts, evil thoughts, enmity, and murderous intentions flowed into his brain continuously.

Just as Project X was about to close off his senses, he suddenly frowned. “Blackmailing, threats and violence against supercats…”

“I feel a strong evil force… somewhere far far away… westwards from where I am.”

Millionaire"s Cat Wonderland, in an underground location.

Zhao Yao slumped on the sofa, playing games as he heard the supercats chatter around him.

A tri-colored cat lay on the floor as he kept pleading with Zhao Yao, “Brother Yao, Brother Yao, I will pay up after three days. Please give me another three days. Please, I"m begging you.”

Zhao Yao scratched his head and said lazily, “Roly Poly, how much does she owe?”

Roly Poly took out his phone and checked the ledger before replying in a stern voice, “Brother, she owes a total of RMB 127 500.”

The tri-colored cat immediately replied, “No… that can"t be. I didn"t owe so much originally.”

Roly Poly narrowed his eyes at her and said, “Miss, there"s interest when you borrow money. Though we are a small business, we can"t let our brothers starve.”

Zhao Yao asked as he continued playing his game, “How long has her payment been overdue?”

Roly Poly glanced at the ledger and said, “Two weeks, Brother.”

Zhao Yao sighed and glanced at the tri-colored cat as he said, “Mei Mei, I saved you from the hands of the Mao Gang, right?”

The tri-colored cat called Mei Mei immediately nodded, “Yeah, yeah, thank you Brother Yao for saving me back then.”

Zhao Yao shook his head and continued, “You are considered an old cat. By right I shouldn"t be pressing you so hard for payment.”

Mei Mei nodded her head vigorously.

Zhao Yao continued, “But even a landlord doesn"t have extra food to spare. Don"t be deceived by the looks of this Cat Wonderland. Though it"s big and business is good, everything about it needs money. I still owe the bank a few billions worth of loans, I can"t sleep every night because of that.”

Mei Mei started crying. “Brother Yao, I really didn"t mean it. How would I know that Portugal would lose to Uruguay… I talked to Cristiano Ronaldo"s cat on the phone yesterday. He clearly told me that there would be no problem. Who would"ve guessed that they still lost in the end.

I actually climbed all the way up to the rooftop. Then I thought I should pay my dues to you properly so I came back down.”

Zhao Yao shook his head and said, “Then tell me, how do you intend to pay off your debt?”

Mei Mei bit on her teeth before she said, “I don"t need my pay for the next two years. I can use that to pay off my debts instead. Would that be okay?”

“No no, if you don"t have your pay how will you eat and play? I will still have to give you your pay.”

Mei Mei let out a breath as she thought how Zhao Yao still had that bit of humanity in him.

However, Zhao Yao continued to say, “But you"re earning too little down here. You should go up and work from now on.”

Mei Mei"s face changed as she replied, “Go up? Brother Yao, you want me to go up and attend to customers?”

Zhao Yao nodded, “Yeah, why? You don"t want to?”

Mei Mei cried, “Brother Yao! I"m a cat from a decent household too. Can you give me another job?”

Zhao Yao"s face darkened. “You"re saying that my business is indecent?”

Mei Mei immediately crossed her paws as she replied, “No, that"s not what I meant.”

“Then that"s right. You will have many opportunities up there,” Zhao Yao said sincerely. “I took your looks into account, that"s why I recommended you go up. After working for a few years up there, you can earn enough money to retire on Cat Island, that"s not too bad right?”

Seeing how Mei Mei was about to rebuke him, Zhao Yao waved a hand to stop her and continued, “Where"s Matcha? Bring him up to talk her into this. Don"t mistake good intentions for ill intent. Once you make big money you will understand that it"s all for your own good.”

Matcha jumped from the sofa at the side and smiled lewdly, “Leave it to me. I will definitely educate her well.”

Mei Mei was immediately dragged away by Matcha and his cats. However, once this incident was settled, Fūjin was seen trotting over right away before he whispered into Zhao Yao"s ear, “Brother Yao, bad news: Cannon is seeing red after losing money from betting above. Now he"s even betting on his tail and forcing us to place bets, what should we do?”

“That rascal,” Zhao Yao said angrily. “Roly Poly, go and drag him down right now. From today onwards, he is not allowed to step into the casino.”

After settling Cannon"s problem, Zhao Yao lay down on the sofa again, shaking his head as he sighed. “Each of them cause trouble all day long. It"s really hard to lead a team.”

At the thought of this, he took out his phone and started to surf the cat web. “How come no one ever talks about the situation in OX city? Has the news been censored?” His face changed when he checked the news headlines.

“Armed rebels in desert countries attack the capital with the help of apostles, occupying the whole country and defeating the American Peacekeeping Force.”

“An extraordinarily huge supernatural incident occurred locally in America. More than 200 apostles were killed.”

Zhao Yao frowned at these two headlines. “They actually stole the headlines from me.” He searched for a long while before he found in a small corner ‘OX city Supernatural Incident, supercats disguised as ghosts and monsters, scaring apostles from many countries".

“What"s going on? Even if they don"t know me, they can"t just write some c.r.a.p in the news. Shouldn"t it be ‘Mysterious apostle saves the whole city, battling thousands of ghosts and monsters singlehandedly"?”

Zhao Yao sighed and started to search for news about Kun Wu. He was still very concerned about this special supercat. Furthermore, Doll"s abilities were not to be underestimated. Zhao Yao had already reported the situation to Uncle Ho and his men. Hopefully, they would be able to find traces of both Doll and Kun Wu.

On the other side, Matcha was just done with educating the wailing Mei Mei when a supercat suddenly walked up to him and said, “Manager Cha, there"s a cat looking for you. He says he knows you.”

“He knows me? Who"s that?”

“Matcha, it"s me!” Yellow Mud stared at Matcha, slightly abashed, as he said, “They said this Cat Wonderland is run by you guys. I didn"t believe them at first, but wow Matcha you"re really amazing! You"re already a manager at such a young age!”

Matcha patted Yellow Mud"s head affectionately and said, “So it"s you, Yellow Mud. Come, come, let me treat you to some meat. We brothers haven"t met in such a long while.”

Not long after, plates of fish and meat were served on the table. Yellow Mud gaped at the food before him and said agitatedly, “Matcha, this… this is really your treat for me?”

“Yeah, go ahead and eat.”

Yellow Mud looked at the meat that was still being served and immediately waved his paws and gestured to stop as he said, “Enough, enough, we can"t finish so much food.” Especially after seeing the price of the food on the menu, Yellow Mud was so shocked that he dropped a whole bunch of fur. He told Matcha in a small voice, “Matcha, this place is so expensive.”

Matcha waved him off and said, “Relax, you don"t need to pay when you eat with me.”

“Really? Matcha you really made it big now, how amazing…” Yellow Mud"s eyes immediately glowed with admiration.

After three rounds of meat, Matcha looked at Yellow Mud and asked, “Old friend, is something bothering you? Is there something you need my help with?”

Yellow Mud rubbed his paws together as he replied shyly, “Recently there has been a ma.s.sive clean up of the streets so there"s been less and less food available…”
