Chapter 460: 456 Choice
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
After sending away all the supercats that wanted to leave, those that were left over included those who were originally there. There were approximately 50 of them, inclusive of Ares and the rest.
It was much more manageable to take care of them. The supercat which was hidden by Faceless and had life preserving abilities was among them.
As he looked at him gaming on the xbox with a serious expression, Zhao Yao felt like he was staying put in the extradimensional belly for the games.
Speaking of which, the ability of this supercat seemed to be the most effective among those under the control of Faceless. It was a spotless defence as all attacks could be directed to beneath his feet. As long as his feet were placed on something, he would not get hit. It was no wonder that Faceless hid him.
After sending off the supercats, Zhao Yao appeared beside Faceless. He looked at Faceless expressionless.
Faceless felt a tinge of panic while being looked at. He had already removed his mask and was wearing ordinary attire. He looked to be over thirty and was just like any ordinary employee of a company. He seemed to have lost the aura he previously had as the leader of the Mao Gang.
Zhao Yao looked at him and spoke, “I shall give you two choices. First, I let you go but you must wash away your memory of the past 24 hours.”
Caesar was the one who was able to cleanse memory. This father ragdoll was able to cleanse the past 24 hours of a person’s memory in his or her dream.
After listening to Zhao Yao, Faceless revealed a bitter expression. If he was to be let out now, there wasn’t going to be a beneficial result. He would likely be captured and locked up for the rest of his life. In addition, if his recent 24 hours of memory was erased, he wouldn’t be left with a single ability. His worth would plummet and besides a lifetime jail sentence, there wasn’t an alternative.
Hence, Faceless looked at Zhao Yao attentively as he awaited the second option.
Zhao Yao spoke, “The second option is that you stay here and take care of the cats. But because of what you did in the past, resulting in dire consequences for the society, seriously damaging the relations of the people. These were irreversible damages and hence by staying here, it will be a lifetime stay.”
Faceless took a deep breath. Even though he knew he did not have any other choice but when he really heard it, he was still bitter.
But on the flip side, he wouldn’t be beaten to death and he heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhao Yao looked at him and said, “Alright, start choosing…”
Faceless revealed an expression of serious deliberation and the entanglement in his heart reached the peak. Zhao Yao looked at the clock and said, “You have 5 minutes. There’s no need to rush, think it through slowly.”
Faceless had a persistent gaze as he answered Zhao Yao, “I choose to stay here.”
“Oh?” Zhao Yao looked at him and continued, “Let me remind you, if you think that you have a chance of escaping by staying here or even borrow the abilities of the cats, you are overthinking. You will only be allowed to stay in this space to work.”
“Rest assured, I don’t have other intentions.” Faceless replied, “If I was to leave and be apprehended, I’m dead. Many people would want that. It’s pretty good that I can stay here and take care of the cats for the rest of my life too.”
He looked at Faceless’ dispirited face and nodded, “That’s alright, let me remind you again, your decision is final.”
“I won’t regret.” Faceless said, “I have understood your strength after the past few days. I wouldn’t be so foolish as to do otherwise.”
Zhao Yao relaxed his shoulders and suddenly snapped, “Matsuo.”
“Yes, my owner.”
Accompanied by mandarin with a heavy Japanese accent, Matsuo suddenly appeared right in front of Faceless and Zhao Yao.
Faceless was taken aback, “This is…”
“A specter. Before you were here, he was in-charge of taking care of the cats here.” Zhao Yao continued, “You just follow him in the future.”
Faceless was shocked as he looked at Matsuo and then he realised that in the extradimensional belly, there were weird occurrences like the toilet being cleaned, catmint being swept up as well as computer being started up in the middle of the night. It seemed like they were all done by the specter in front of him.
As he watched Faceless leaving with Matsuo, Zhao Yao called Old Cat and said, “Find a time to speak to this Faceless. I don’t want to kill him but don’t want him to do as he wishes. Don’t be too overboard, let him be a person who love the cats and don’t keep thinking of taking revenge for me.”
Old Cat smiled at Zhao Yao knowingly, nodded his head and replied, “Yes.”
Zhao Yao thought that with Old Cat’s guidance, even if Old Cat’s ability could only last for 24 hours. But with the culmination of time and effort, it should reform Faceless and would be more effective than prison.
As he finished sorting out the matters of the supercats, Zhao Yao headed home and lay on his sofa satisfyingly. Mango who was a distance away rushed to him excitedly and leaped into his embrace.
As Zhao Yao stroked the cat, he switched on the phone that was connected to cat web and entered the forum.
At this moment, he did not need to be cautious and can use that phone whenever as he wasn’t afraid of Uncle Ho and the rest knowing his position.
Zhao Yao accessed the cat web with the intention of looking at news of himself. After flipping through a few pieces of news, he instantly saw discussions about the auction.
But the news that were received by most were that the Mao Gang was taken down by apostles of the authority. They were unaware of the appearance of the Headless Horseman and it was evident that the news was altered by the authority.
Mao Gang was relatively reputable. They were entirely eradicated this time and this had a big impact. The associations became more honest and they was greater respect towards the capabilities of the apostles of the authority.
As for the apostles on the outside, they were condemning and there was an incessant request to release the people but no one cared.
Zhao Yao was pretty satisfied at this circumstance. He allowed the country to be notified about certain things but he didn’t want to be known in the realm of superpowers. Afterall, it was better to keep a low profile and develop. Secrecy was a trump card, if he was more well known, he would be more of a target too.
At this moment, Roly Poly jumped onto Zhao Yao. While he rubbed Zhao Yao’s knee, he spoke, “Zhao Yao Zhao Yao, you’ve worked hard.” He rubbed Zhao Yao’s thigh and ran to the rear of the sofa and placed his paws on Zhao Yao’s shoulders to massage them.
“Let me massage for you.”
As he looked at Roly Poly’s obedience, he shut his eyes and enjoyed the massage. He then asked, “What happened?”
Roly Poly licked his paws and said, “Nothing can escape your eyes.” He lifted his eyes and looked at Red Packet who was standing at the corner of the wall with his paws held high and said, “Red Packet had stood there for such a long time already. He is sincerely repenting and wouldn’t dare to run away again.”
“After standing for so long, his body will be damaged and would require Zhao Yao’s money to heal himself. Let’s just forget it.”
