Zhao Yao"s eyebags drooped down like heavy sandbags as he spoke, "You guys searched way too fast... Or should I say..." He suddenly reacted, "Does this guy have a huge background? You both share the same surname Ho, this guy here might even be your son."
"Have you watched One Piece?" Uncle Ho ignored Zhao Yao"s question and asked instead.
Zhao Yao was left in a daze as he didn"t expect a question like that coming from Uncle Ho. Nonetheless, he answered, "Are you saying that this fellow here is Luffy? Someone with strong abilities, an intimidating background, and connections with people from both ends of the spectrum. "
"No." Uncle Ho responded. "I"m saying that this fellow here is like the Celestial Dragon. Anyone who fights him is simply unlucky. "
Zhao Yao rolled his eyes. In One Piece (Anime), Celestial Dragon has an intimidating background and the fact that Uncle Ho compared Celestial Dragon to He Hao Cang highlighted the problem that they were faced with.
Zhao Yao shook his head and responded, "It doesn"t even matter to me. Even if he is Saiyan, I"ll still beat him up!"
Uncle Ho a.s.serted, "Zhao Yao! Don"t you get too c.o.c.ky! You beat him up today and trust me, I"ll bring all my men to where you are now. I"ll station people to stand outside your cafe every day and we"ll see how you can continue to run your business."
"Are you fooling around with me?" Zhao Yao snapped. "Let me tell you something. I"ve raised my supercats for so long and until today, I"m still afraid that they will turn mad one day. They may not know how to play fetch, but I"m sure they can fight and kill people if I allow them to. What do you say?"
"Are you threatening me now?!"Uncle Ho bellowed.
"You are the one who"s threatening me, sir!" Zhao Yao replied. "I"ve achieved so much on my own relying solely on my bravery, money, and cats. And now you want to tell me what"s the right thing to do?"
"Oh, you think you are young and dangerous?" Uncle Ho mocked. "Aren"t you still a virgin little guy?"
"You invaded my privacy?" Zhao Yao pretended to be angry but was extremely humiliated.
"Listen up. I am a respectful and pure man. It"s not that I don"t want to lose my virginity. I am a believer in s.e.x after marriage. "
"Come on, there"s nothing shameful about being a virgin. Who hasn"t been through that stage? Shall I bring you to the ma.s.sage parlor?" Uncle Ho smiled as he tried to tempt Zhao Yao with an alluring tone.
"Ma...Ma.s.sage parlor? What kind of ma.s.sage parlor?"
"Come on... We all know." Uncle Ho sighed and continued. "The kind that lets you release all your raging hormones which you kept in your body all these years."
Zhao Yao stuttered and asked, "T...That"s not very nice, isn"t it? Won"t we get caught? What if they tell our relatives? My parents are very conservative..."
"What are afraid of? It"s a public ma.s.sage parlor!" Uncle Ho continued to tempt Zhao Yao. "I heard that there"s a new opening in the east district recently and they are all fresh university graduates. You know you could get her to ****. "
"****?!" Zhao Yao"s eyes widened in surprise and started to breathe heavily. "Won"t that be too disrespectful?"
"They are all professionals. In fact, if you continue to act like this, you"re the one who is humiliating them. So what do you say? I"ll settle everything and I promise that you"ll have a good time."
By this time, Zhao Yao"s face was already glowing red as his breathing got heavier and heavier. All sorts of s.e.xual images and clips started to flash through his mind.
Suddenly, Elizabeth slapped Zhao Yao on the face with her paw and snapped, "Zhao Yao! Are you h.o.r.n.y? Suggest another request!"
Matcha also appeared all of a sudden and stared at Zhao Yao with a look of disdain on his face. "Hey... Where did your virtues go..."
"You are not a virgin anymore yourself." Zhao Yao squeezed the cats back to where they were as he got back to his senses. He suppressed his inner desires and suggested, "I won"t hit him but on one condition. Help me pay rent (the cat cafe) for 20 years."
"A year is the most I can offer you. Anything more than that and our department would go bankrupt.
"A year? Don"t fool around with me! 10 years or I"ll smash this mansion flat!"
"You think you are a qigong master? 3 years, nothing more."
"Seven years. Last chance before I..."
"5 years, I"ll pay the rent and you don"t have to pay any tax. I even pulled out my savings for this, don"t you dare reject this offer."
Uncle Ho thought to himself: "A cat cafe won"t earn that much anyway. The tax money is negligible."
Zhao Yao acted as if he was in deep thought and eventually agreed, "I guess I have no choice. For the sake of harmony between humans and supercats and for the sake of social stability, I"ll have to make this sacrifice on my part. Let go of him."
Elizabeth and Matcha spat in disgust in the kitty bag. "Hypocrite."
Zhao Yao thought to himself: "Hmm, I can"t do anything about this guy since Uncle Ho knows about it. Hehe, I"ll just have to wait for the next opportunity to find trouble with him." Anyway, Zhao Yao had to complete this mission one day.
In fact, the moment Zhao Yao received the call from Uncle Ho, he already knew that he wouldn"t have the chance to attack today.
Zhao Yao took a last look at the villa in front of him and turned around to leave as he muttered under his breath. "What an old creep. To think that he tried to tempt me through s.e.xual means."
Uncle Ho was watching from the satellite imagery all this while. As he saw Zhao Yao turning around to leave, he heaved a sigh of immense relief and threw his body onto the couch. He sighed, " Man... Can"t believe we wasted the chance of visiting the ma.s.sage parlor."
"What did you say?"
"Nothing."
Zhao Yao asked, "Have you sent people over to the female cat breeder? She"s a pretty decent girl and her cats seem to have the power to control animals."
"Yeah, I"ve sent people to talk to her. Rest a.s.sured, we won"t make things difficult for people who are nice."
"Oh right, I still have a black man over here."
"Black man..." Inspector Ho replied. "Just leave him there, I"ll send someone to pick him up."
"He"s naked, you ought to bring some clothes for him."
"Naked?" Uncle Ho raised an eyebrow.
Uncle Ho hanged up the phone and recalled what Zhao Yao said during their call. He was glad that Jiangmen"s strongest apostle turned out to be such a righteous man.
"Oh man... I really wanted to try out that ma.s.sage parlor though..."
"This Zhao Yao... He really looked like he wanted to experience it..."
Soon after hanging up, a muscular man with neatly shaven inch-long hair barged into the room.
Lin Chen snapped as he walked in and saw a dull-looking Uncle Ho. "Inspector, the masked man just appeared at the wildlife zoo right? Why didn"t you tell me."
Inspector Ho laughed it off and said, "He already escaped anyway, there"s no point in going down there now. Let"s just wait for Xiao w.a.n.g to collect the all the clues and evidence."
Lin Chen stated at Inspector Ho with a doubtful pair of eyes. Ever since Lin Chen lost the battle against the killer cat, he had been training hard every day in an effort to overcome his physical limits and unleash his true potential.
Compared to a month ago, Lin Chen"s powers are now much more advanced and his combat strength has improved tremendously.
All this time, the only thing he wished to do was to defeat and capture the masked man.
However, after countless rounds of investigation, they were still unable to track down the ident.i.ty of the masked man. Somehow, video footages of the masked man were always corrupted or lost. Lin Chen suspected that there"s someone from the inside who have been helping to cover up his tracks and keep his ident.i.ty well-hidden.
"I will personally find him, defeat him and capture him. I promise." Lin Chen announced as he looked at Uncle Ho.
Uncle Ho laughed. "Lin Chen, there"s no need to work that hard. We are all civil servants; we come to work and get off work on time. It"s fine if you don"t want to work your s.h.i.+ft. Just treat me to a sauna or karaoke session."
Lin Chen stared at Uncle Ho with a look of disdain in his eyes as he took a few steps back. He said, "Please take note of the consequences, Inspector Ho. As civil servants, we will get fired if we are found in those places."
