Chapter 924: Bathing and the Capture

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Hearing Elizabeth’s resolute tone, all the cats started to think twice about her words.

Deep down, Elizabeth was panicking. “If these guys don’t protest, I’ll be the only cat protesting. If that’s the case, I will definitely be doomed to a bath!”

The thought of bathing her long fur made Elizabeth feel awful.

She was gifted with extraordinary fur and had been given the title of “Miss Furry” from a young age, when she was still in the cattery. She had always been the cat with the bushiest, longest, thickest, and prettiest fur out of all her cat peers.

The beauty of her fur allowed her to stand out from the other cats and catch the eye of humans as well. Both the cat world and the human world were her oysters.

However, her long fur also required Elizabeth to do many other things that most cats would not need to do.

For example when licking their fur every morning, Shorthairs like Rice Cake only needed 10-30 minutes to lick their paws and wash their faces. Elizabeth, on the other hand, had to lick herself from head to toe, which took at least an hour. If she wanted to lick herself clean it could even take up to two hours.

Everyday when she shat in the toilet, it required more cleaning up as well. Being a Ragdoll cat made things worse as she had a weak stomach to begin with…

However, the thing that Elizabeth hated the most about her long fur is having to bathe with it.

It either made her feel wet all over, either she would have to be blown by a hot and noisy hair dryer for an hour or she could slowly lick her fur for several hours. Whichever method she adopted, the experience would be equally awful.

Hence, Elizabeth was vehemently against bathing.

She was only heard saying, “Everyone, now is the time to show Zhao Yao know our powers! Why would we need to be scared of one Zhao Yao when there’s so many of us here?”

“I’m scared,” The Ragdoll cat father Caesar said. “If we protest, Zhao Yao will definitely beat us up. He might even shave off our fur, starve us, lock us in cages, shoot us with water guns…”

“Shut up,” Elizabeth glared at her father and continued, “Zhao Yao is but a mere human! He can only use one kind of superpower at one time! As long as we work together, we can definitely beat Zhao Yao! No more baths for us then!”

Caesar cowered in a corner, trembling. “But Zhao Yao’s physical capabilities are too strong. He can demolish a building with just a punch. We will definitely be punished really badly, be soaked in the water indefinitely and Zhao Yao might even resort to using an automatic cat washing machine to bathe us…”

“A cat washing machine?” Rice Cake exclaimed. “Why would he use such an evil thing?!”

“He might really use it.” Dust Ball wagged her black tail and said seriously, “When I went over last time, I saw Zhao Yao stealthily browsing through all sorts of cat wash machines on Taobao. He closed the app the moment he saw me.”

“Oh my goodness, Zhao Yao actually wanted to buy a cat washing machine?”

Lightning said, “Ah Qiang, who stayed next to the Cat Wonderland, told me that he suffered from impotence after bathing in one! He could only maintain it for seconds!”

Elizabeth suddenly felt tired from listening to all the chatter amongst the cats, who had become distracted and started discussing the dangers of cat washing machines. “Sigh. When it comes to things like cats, it’s really too hard to lead a team.”

In a beachside villa, Zhao Yao stood before a pool in the toilet. The pool had a pot basin in it. Mango began soaking in this pool at that moment, with a blank look on his face.

Zhao Yao squeezed some pet shampoo on Mango’s head and slathered it all the way down as he began to scrub Mango’s back.

Mango opened his mouth foolishly and his tongue lolled out. A look of annoyance flashed across his face.

Zhao Yao did not care about that and continued to scrub Mango. He then washed the shampoo off Mango and took out the hairdryer to blow dry his fur.

Looking at Mango who occasionally shook his head as if he wanted to leave, Zhao Yao remarked, “Mango, you’re the only one who’s this obedient during baths. When will the other cats learn from you?”

Right at that moment, Zhao Yao’s phone rang. It was a Wechat message from Roly Poly. “Zhao Yao, Zhao Yao, Elizabeth, Matcha and the other cats are discussing how to rebel against you and refuse to bathe!”

“These guys.”

Zhao Yao shook his head. He put Mango, whom he had blown dry, down on the floor, rubbing Mango’s head as he said, “Mango you were so obedient when bathing today. Let’s give you a can of cat food as a treat.”

When he heard the words “cat food”, Mango’s eyes widened as he stared at Zhao Yao expectantly.

Zhao Yao controlled the cupboard with his mind and forced it open. A can of cat food flew out and opened by itself before it landed in front of Mango.

As he watched Mango savor the canned food, Zhao Yao’s body flashed and he disappeared into thin air.

…

On the other side of Cat Island, Roly Poly giggled as he kept away his phone. He thought to himself, “Humph, Zhao Yao’s favor for Elizabeth and Matcha will definitely diminish this time.”

In Roly Poly’s consciousness, Project X remarked, “So this is your way of conquering the world?”

“What do you know?” Roly Poly said nonchalantly. “If I want to conquer the world, I have to first conquer Zhao Yao. To conquer Zhao Yao, I must first ruin Matcha and Elizabeth.”

Project X replied, “Humph, Zhao Yao is nothing. If it wasn’t for me…”

Roly Poly cut him off. “You have already lost. Admit it. You have lost to the point where not a strand of your fur is left. Can you stop making all these unnecessary comments? It just makes you look like a sore loser.”

Project X replied angrily, “I’m a sore loser? How am I a sore loser? I wouldn’t have lost if that kid Zhao Yao hadn’t played dirty tricks and avoided fighting me up front! Who knows if my capabilities are above him now?”

Roly Poly mimicked Project X’s tone and replied, “Let me sleep… Just let me sleep for a while… I have really reached my maximum point…”

“Hello? Project X?”

“Are you still there?”

“Did you close yourself off?”

Roly Poly pursed his lips. He turned to walk off and check on the situation with Elizabeth and the rest when he suddenly came face to face with Kun Wu, which scared him.

“What are you doing! You scared the cat out of me!”

Kun Wu stared at Roly Poly suspiciously and asked, “Who were you talking to just now?”

Roly Poly was startled. He immediately broke into a laugh and said, “There’s no one here, I’m just talking to myself.”

“Really?” Kun Wu stared at Roly Poly and said, “Why do I feel like you were talking to another cat, as if there were another cat in your mind.”

Roly Poly’s heart dropped as he continued with his pretense, “Are you saying I have bipolar disorder? You’re the crazy one. I can’t be bothered with you.”

Kun Wu watched as Roly Poly hastily left. She cocked her head to one side and wondered to herself, “Why… did I dream of him again recently?”

On the other side of the Cat Island, ear-splitting cat screams erupted all around. Zhao Yao had started capturing the cats to bathe them.

…

Three days later, Maria walked out of Jianghai Airport in a crisp black suit with two white people behind her, one male and one female.

Maria glanced at her watch and said, “It’s 12.43pm now. Our return flight is scheduled at 8.45pm tonight. It takes around 2 hours to get to the target’s workplace. If we take 4 hours to travel back and forth from our destination, we will have around 4 hours to capture the target.”
