959 Racing Each Other (1/2)

Zhang Zian watched as the light on the screen moved. Before that, the light cluster covered the whole range of the Forbidden City. Now, there was almost half a circle that was already out of the Forbidden City.

He thought in his heart that it was horrible. Before that, the elfins he had met were fixed on a particular position and didn't move. That was the first time he had met a situation where the elfin was moving, and the speed of movement was quite fast.

Wen Li wasn't walking very fast. She was quite slow carrying the orange tabby, and she would occasionally ask questions concerning the three types of viruses. Zhang Zian did not have the time to be delayed there any longer so he asked, ”Something urgent has come up and I must leave. Where's the exit?”

”Oh, that way,” she said, pointing northeast. ”After you take a few turns, you'll see it. It's not far from the Gate of Godly Prowess.”

”All right, then I'll go. Bye! If I have time I'll come back again,” Zhang Zian said, distracted by his phone screen. He ran off.

”Ah! You're running in the wrong direction! Just walk straight past this doorway, don't turn. You're heading to the Respectability Room!” she called out from behind.

Zhang Zian: ”…”

”Meow, meow, meow! The Respectability Room is right!” Snowy Lionet could not contain itself.

”Ah? Why is there the sound of a cat calling?” Wen Li was confused and looked around. ”There's no cat around…”

Zhang Zian pretended to not hear her and prepared himself to jog the whole way. He left the Forbidden City from the Gate of Godly Prowess.

The northwest of the Forbidden City was Beihai Park, and directly to the north was Jingshan Park. The light circle had already left the Forbidden City and it was first running towards the northeast for a while before it turned towards the southeast. It ran into a very crowded area.

They had walked around the Forbidden City for the entirety of the morning, and it was now almost afternoon. There were a lot of people, and there were a lot of cars; the difficulty of finding it was increasing.

Galaxy was originally excitedly running right in front, but as soon as it left the Forbidden City and saw the large crowd in front, it hesitated.

Normally, Pi did not exercise, and after jogging, it was also panting.

Snowy Lionet was also like that. It was having a lot of trouble running with its short legs, and its fur was too long. It was very hot after exercising, and was asking to be returned to the phone.

Fina was not scared of people, and was rather athletic, but it was not willing to lower itself to chase another cat elfin. It was acting lazy and unenergetic.

Zhang Zian had to watch where the light was moving and also had to make sure they were not hit by a car. It was very hard to do all those things at once, so he had no other choice but to keep the four of them in his phone and leave only Famous, Old Time Tea, and Richard out.

This old city area had a lot of alleys and old style housing; sometimes he would also see courtyard dwellings, full of the old capital feels. The Warding Off Evil Cat seemed to be very familiar with the layout, and when it was walking through the streets and the alleys, it kept changing directions, which caused Zhang Zian to be tiredly running for his life.

The good thing was that Richard had flown to somewhere high to look for the cat. Old Time Tea had climbed up to the top of the walls and the eaves of the houses, and Famous was leading the way by following its scent; it could just manage to smell its faint scent. If Zhang Zian chased it by himself, he would have been left behind a long time ago.

There were quite a few times, according to Richard's words, that the cat had run into a dead-end and had nowhere else to escape to. As they continued to chase it, it kept managing to find unknown, small roads, or even dog holes, or it would turn around and slide into another alleyway, causing him to not be able to trap it.
