92 Getting out of bed ? (1/2)
”Right.” Inspector Ho finally got serious after hearing Xiao Shi Yu's reply and asked, ”How is he today? Is he exceptionally bad-tempered today and did he do anything out of the ordinary?”
Shi Yu responded, ”Zhao Yao did not do anything extraordinary today. He spends most of his time in the cat cafe playing online games. Other than the mysterious aura that is emitted from one of his cats, he did not use any of his other powers.”
Inspector Ho asked in a serious tone. ”Mysterious aura?... I remember you telling me about this before. What's the use of the aura?”
”The use of the aura?” Xiao Shi Yu knitted her eyebrows and answered, ”I'm not that sure of its actual purpose but I'd say that it makes you feel really comfortable and relaxed.”
”Comfortable?” Inspector Ho was intrigued by such a vague description and asked, ”Other than feeling comfortable, are they any other uses?”
”It seems like I slept better these few days.” Shi Yu replied.
”Oh.” Inspector Ho seemed slightly disappointed as he nodded his face. ”In that case, please continue to observe Zhao Yao's daily activities. As long as he doesn't go about wrecking havoc and killing people, you don't have to do anything to stop him. If the situation goes out of control, contact me immediately.”
”Roger.” Xiao Shi Yu continued,” I've got to admit that the weird aura does make you feel very comfortable. With this energy emitted from his cat cafe, Zhao Yao's cat cafe business has seen a vast improvement these days.”
However, it seemed like Inspector Ho wasn't interested in what Shi Yu was saying as he instructed, ”Right, don't forget to watch out for your own safety. You don't have sufficient training and you don't have any superpowers. If you encounter a fight, run as far as you can. Never ever go in and try to be a hero, understood?”
”Yeah yeah I know. Do you really think that someone like me who is afraid of death would charge in like that?” Shi Yu laughed as she answered.
”Good, stay that way. Surviving is our only hope.” Uncle Ho sighed and sounded like there was a tinge of sadness in his tone.
After speaking what he wanted to say, Uncle Ho hanged up. Xiao Shi Yu stared at the phone display and mumbled, ”This old man... He's a decent leader after all.”
She looked at the time and it was only 11.
”10 more hours to work tomorrow.”
Somehow, Shi Yu was really looking forward to work tomorrow.
”Ahh, it really felt so comfortable.”
...
Zhao Yao was rudely woken up from his sleep.
He opened his eyes and saw Matcha's entire body resting on his face; he was almost suffocated in his sleep.
Zhao Yai grabbed Matcha by the neck and hurled him away as Matcha backflipped and rolled several times on the bed. Miraculously, Matcha was still sound asleep and continued to snore loudly.
”What the... This guy snores louder than I do.”
Zhao Yao rolled his eyes as Matcha slept like a dead log.
Normally, cats tend to be very vigilant animals. While they seem to sleep all day, most of the time they were just taking a quick shut-eye and would wake up in the slightest of movement. They only enter deep sleep for a few hours each day.
However, it clearly wasn't the case for Matcha. As an intelligent cat, Matcha does not stay vigilant when he is at home. Coupled with the fact that he spends most of the day staring at a phone display, it takes up a lot of his energy and makes him easily tired. In order to quickly energize himself, he would enter deep sleep.
Zhao Yao kicked Matcha on the head but Matcha responded by hugging his feet and licking it. Zhao Yao shook his leg and said, ”Rise and shine, let's get ready for work.”
Matcha stuck out his tongue and continued to sleep, showing no intention of waking up anytime soon.
Zhao Yao began rubbing Matcha's head, back, and butt in an effort to wake him up. However, after several minutes of shaking and rubbing, Matcha remains soundly asleep and snored even louder than before.
Zhao Yao tickled Matcha's white furry belly, rolled him a couple of times and Matcha still hasn't woken up.
