After hearing Elizabeth’s words, Napoleon froze as though he was hit by lightning.

“Is this bald and fat cat really Elizabeth?”

“I’m finished. Zhao Yao will know that I’m here for the cats.”

“Am I going to be eaten? Braised or steamed? Steaming sounds very painful!”

Numerous thoughts ran through his mind and it was about to explode. He did not know what to do and looked in a daze at Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao said, “You’re here to capture my cats? You are brave. I’ll…”

“No!” Napoleon recovered himself and shouted in a shrill voice, “Don’t eat me! Don’t eat me, I’ll do whatever you say! Ooo, ooo, ooo, please don’t eat me!”

Zhao Yao finished a piece of braised meat and said slowly, “Whatever I say?”

“Whatever you say!” Napoleon roared, “Don’t eat me! I’ll be your slave!”

“Great, I like your sense of responsibility. Remember your words.” Zhao Yao straightened his body and showed his admiration. “You’ll help me earn money to repay the debt.”

Napoleon heaved in relief and thought, “Finally, I’m safe.”

Matcha and the cats looked at each other and they looked at Napoleon with pity.

Matcha thought, “The future of Napoleon… no… Napoleon has no future.”

Elizabeth thought, “Pitiful cat. Napoleon has to live in Zhao Yao’s shadows.”

Roly Poly thought, “It doesn’t mean Zhao Yao’s going to really eat him. Paying his debt means he’s selling his 10 kilograms of meat to Zhao Yao…” When Roly Poly recalled that he was paying his debt to Zhao Yao monthly, Roly Poly lowered his head and shed tears of sadness.

Zhao Yao counted with his fingers and said, “Since you are willing to pay, then things are easy. I’m a reputable person. I’ll tell you how much money you owe me. I’m a just person. You’ll never pay more nor pay less than your debt.

When you pay for all the damages caused on the Cat Island, I’ll release you.”

Napoleon nodded and he was feeling moved. “Who said the Headless Horseman’s unreasonable and despotic? He’s understanding. I caused damages here so I should compensate.

Fortunately, I’ve been saving up these few years for a house. Should be about five million? I think it’s sufficient to pay…”

“Hmm, let me calculate.” Zhao Yao squeezed his chin and said, “Environmental conservation fees for damaging the trees and grasses… Fees for causing mental anguish to supercats… I’ll give you a discount. An eight figure sum.”

“Eight figure sum?”

“Eight billion.” Zhao Yao said, “I’m giving you a chance. If you transfer eight billion to my account by the end of the month, I’ll let you go.”

“Eight billion?!!” Napoleon stuck out his tongue in shock. He gazed at Zhao Yao and said, “You… could you calculate again? You didn’t use a calculator and you counted in a few seconds…”

Napoleon was angry inside. “You are bulls*itting. How did I cause eight billion in damages?!”

“I don’t have to use a calculator. Don’t think that I’m a normal person. My brain calculates faster than a calculator. Don’t worry, I won’t make a mistake,” Zhao Yao said gently. “How’s that? Are you using Alipay or credit cards?”

Napoleon gazed at Zhao Yao and thought gloomily, “What Alipay? Where can I get eight billion? You are too unscrupulous!”

Zhao Yao looked at Napoleon and said, “What? You aren’t willing to pay?” He took a piece of braised meat and swallowed it as he gazed menacingly at Napoleon.

Napoleon nodded his head and said, “I’m willing… I’ll pay… pay the money!!”

“That’s good.” Zhao Yao took out a piece of paper from his back and put it in front of Napoleon. “Sign and put down your paw print. From now on, I’m your debtor. As long as you pay up, you won’t be eaten. You’ll have peace daily.”

“Yes, I’ll be safe from being eaten and I can lead a peaceful life.” Napoleon signed the paper and printed his paw on the agreement. He thought, “The Headless Horseman is well prepared. I’m able to sign immediately.”

Zhao Yao took back the signed agreement and examined it. He smiled with satisfaction and said, “Good, from now on, you’ll be my cat. What’s your name?”

Napoleon said in a daze, “Napoleon.”

Zhao Yao smiled merrily and said, “Fine, Napoleon, please wait a moment before I make work arrangements for you.” Zhao Yao looked at the humans, who were with Napoleon, and said, “As long as you finish paying for all the damage, I’ll let you go.”

Napoleon heaved in relief. “Everyone will help to pay the eight million. If that’s the case…”

“What nonsense.” Zhao Yao said in surprise, “Each one of you pays eight billion.”

Napoleon gaped for a long time.

An apostle who was tired of living jumped out and shouted, “Eight billion?! Why don’t you kill me? I’ve got no money but you can take my life!”

“Hehe.” Zhao Yao laughed coldly and everyone felt a cold draught blowing on their bodies.

“Tired of living?” Zhao Yao took out his Dragon Slaying Saber from his neck and said, “I’ll never kill the innocent and I’ll never kill you.”

“Thinking of not paying up? Where’s the law and order? ” Zhao Yao flicked his finger and the saber turned into a golden ray and stabbed the apostle’s arm.

The apostle screamed in pain and rolled on the ground violently. His gut wrenching screams made everyone’s hair stand up and they felt depressed.

As the saber was about to stab him again, the apostle screamed, “I’ll pay! I’ll pay! Don’t stab me.”

Zhao Yao glanced at other apostles and asked, “Is anyone else not paying up?”

All the supercats felt disheartened. Midnight, Lang Gou and other companions, who were busy in the kitchen, looked at each other and said, “Finally, we’re getting help in the kitchen.”
