Am I A God?

After Zhao Yao saw the sheriff, he waved his hand and sent the two cats off. While the sheriff was leaving the office, he saw Milk Tea leaping and jumping as he ran into the office, with Yellow Mud behind Milk Tea yelling, “Don’t run so fast! Take care not to fall!”

The sheriff shook his head and thought, “Such a pity that a little kitten is going to be…” He sighed and left with Roly Poly.

Milk Tea jumped into Zhao Yao’s arms, scraping here and there and saying, “Master Zhao! I received my salary!”

Zhao Yao smiled as he nodded. “Where did you clean today?”

Milk Tea gestured with his paws and said, “We cleaned the main hall and the casino below. We started yesterday once the business was closed when there were no guests around!”

Zhao Yao was pleased as he cuddled Milk Tea’s head and said, “Milk Tea, you’re so skilled.” He took out a wad of dollars and gave it to Milk Tea. “Take this Milk Tea. This is your reward!”

Seeing so much money, Milk Tea opened his eyes in surprise and looked at Yellow Mud. He shook his head and said, “No… I can’t. My salary is not worth that much.”

Zhao Yao was moved as his eyes flashed with the image of Matcha.

…

“Zhao Yao! I have no money!” Matcha bit the lap of Zhao Yao’s pants and wailed, “No money! No money! No money! No money! No money! No money! No money! No money…”

“Enough, I will transfer 500 dollars to you.”

“That is not enough for me!” Matcha leaped on Zhao Yao’s head and shouted, “Give me money! I want money! Money! Money! Money…”

…

“They are both orange cats. Why is the difference so great?” Zhao Yao sighed with mixed feelings and caressed Milk Tea’s head. “It’s alright. You did your job well so I am rewarding you.”

“No, I can’t!” Milk Tea bat the cash with his paw and looked at Yellow Mud, who was encouraging him by nodding. Milk Tea inhaled deeply and said, “My salary is not worth that much. Master Zhao, I can’t take this hard earned money from you.”

“Silly kid.” Zhao Yao cuddled Milk Tea’s back from the head to the tail. Seeing Milk Tea squint his eyes in comfort, Zhao Yao asked, “Okay, I will not reward you with money. Since you worked so hard, I will reward you with a gift. Tell me what you want. I will get it for you as a gift. Don’t refuse.”

Milk Tea stared at Zhao Yao with his large eyes and hesitated as he wagged his tail. He said with anticipation, “Master Zhao, can you play with the cat stick with me? I saw it on the television. People were playing with the cat stick with the little kittens.”

Milk Tea’s gaze was full of yearning. Zhao Yao covered his mouth and thought, “Yes, almost identical to Matcha when he was young…”

He recalled the past and thought of the current Matcha.

…

The cat stick waved in front of Matcha before he became impatient and pushed the cat stick away as he said, “What are you doing? Trying to fool me?”

“This is a cat stick Matcha! You loved playing with this when you were young!”

“You are boring me with the past. I am already grown up! I don’t play with such silly things now.” Matcha said and he abruptly leaped on Zhao Yao’s legs. He turned and tossed as he yelled, “I want money! Help me charge my game account with money! Money, money, money! If you don’t help me, I won’t get up!”

…

Zhao Yao stroked Milk Tea with mixed feelings. He took out the cat stick that had not been used for a long time and played with it with Milk Tea.

As the cat stick was waved and turned around, Milk Tea’ body was twisting and turning correspondingly. He looked intently at Milk Tea, who would occasionally swipe his paw at the cat stick.

Seeing Milk Tea happily playing and focusing on the cat stick, Zhao Yao could not resist smiling and thought, “I hope, Milk Tea, that you will grow up happy and healthy. Don’t be like your unreliable dad.”

…

In the Extradimensional Belly, Matcha was lying below the ice shaver machine licking the ice shavings when he had an idea and sat up.

Old Cat was concerned and typed the words that said, “What happened, Sir George?”

Matcha frowned and his expression turned grim. He licked on the ice shavings and said, “I feel that it will be better with strawberry sauce!”

“Understood!” Old Cat shouted to the cats to the side, “Get some strawberry sauce!”

Speedy who was stuck in the ice shaver machine roared, “That is enough! My ability is limited! I can’t possibly produce ice forever!”

Matcha kicked the ice shaver machine and said, “Why are you yelling? The weather’s hot and we are wearing a thick coat of fur so we may get heat stroke. Why are you complaining when you are only contributing a small amount of ice? What a miser.”

Speedy looked at the long queue of supercats standing before the ice shaver machine and wept but failed to shed a tear. “You call this a small amount of ice?”

Matcha shouted at the top of his voice, “Free strawberry slurpee! Come and help yourself!”

…

Zhao Yao played with Milk Tea for more than half an hour. Milk Tea started panting heavily, his stomach rising and flattening but his large eyes remained focused on the cat stick.

Zhao Yao let Milk Tea lie down as he made the cat stick dance above Milk Tea, who swiped happily at it.

Yellow Mud looked at the scene and giggled discreetly. “That is great, I shall play with the cat stick with Floret too. It had been a long time since I played with her.”

As Zhao Yao indulged in playing with the cat stick, his cell phone rang.

“Someone called me directly on my cell phone? What happened?” Zhao Yao looked surprised as he picked up the phone. “Nanako?”

His brow raised as he opened up the phone and heard a feeble voice coming through.

Nanako said, “Mr Zhao Yao, sorry to bother you.”

“Nanako?” Zhao Yao was surprised and asked, “Your voice sounds very bad, what happened?”

“I…” Nanako’s voice was filled with tremendous sorrow as she said, “My brother… has passed away.”

Zhao Yao was dumbfounded and he answered gravely, “I send my condolences. Is there anything I can help you with?” He stood up and his body exuded a serious aura.

When he last saw Hideki Kujyo, he was a smart and capable young man. Zhao Yao did not expect him to pass away in just a few months.

Milk Tea felt the change in Zhao Yao’s attitude. He climbed up and stood by the side obediently.

Nanako inhaled deeply and said, “Five supercats attacked us and they were powerful and cruel. After they created a lot of trouble in the United States, they came to Japan.

They attacked all the powerful apostles in Japan and stole their supercats. According to the latest intelligence, they have arrived in China.”

“Oh!”

“Mr Zhao Yao, you have to be careful. They are extremely dangerous.”

Zhao Yao comforted Nanako and said, “Don’t worry Nanako. If they look for me, they will be in a very bad shape.”
