404 The Stalkers ? (1/2)

Matcha screamed in response, ”That was barely a minute! I'll be out the moment I get that photo! Just be patient.”

”No, there is no room for discussion. You leave the moment your time is up.”

Matcha could literally feel a suction force slowly wrapping around his body as it lifted him off the ground. Sweat beaded his forehead as Matcha relented, ”Alright, alright! I'll transfer you the money when I'm out.” Actually, he was sniggering in his head, ”Only a fool will transfer you the money when he is out.”

However, the suction force did not subside. Instead, it grew even stronger. Dust Ball explained, ”There is wifi inside my belly. Transfer the money to me now or I'll throw you out.”

”D*mn it, that niggard.” Matha's paw darted across his screen before tapping on the wifi button. Transacting that money over was like cutting a piece of his own meat and giving it away. Pain seared through him as he screamed, ”Give me another minute!”

Matcha's abnormal behavior got Elizabeth all curious, ”What is he doing? Did he come in here to play his stupid phone games?”

After transferring the money over, Matcha immediately switched over to the camera function and recorded evidence of Roly Poly's mutiny.

Meanwhile, Ishida nibbled on his bottom lip before finally answering Roly Poly. With his earnest gaze staring right at Roly Poly, he explained, ”I'm just an ordinary person hired by the lending platform. I've heard of the name Zhao Yao, but there's not much that I know about him. Is he an apostle?”

On Roly Poly's end, she detected another presence inching towards her as a shadow loomed over. She didn't even bother to turn her head and offered, ”Ten for an hour, five hundred for half an hour, and two thousand for the entire night.”

Rice Cake was trembling with fury when she heard that exorbitant sum, ”Wasn't it just RMB five for a minute just now?”

”What's wrong? Can't I increase the price?” Dust Ball interrupted Rice Cake's protest.

Rice Cake's eyes were riveted to Dust Ball and it was filled with anger and indignation. She muttered, ”Roly Poly, Matcha, and Elizabeth are all gone. We were supposed to play PUBG together!” Rice Cake had spent the last ten minutes in her futile search for her teammates. Only one possibility remained: they were in cat nation.

Dust Ball asked again, ”So are you going in or not? I can't guarantee that the price will stay the same a minute later.”

Fury blinded her as she made the decision, ”I'll just pretend that I've fed my money to some crazy dog.”

…

Roly Poly could feel that immense weight lifted off his tiny shoulder when those reassuring words echoed in his head.

Ishida noticed the change in his expression and muttered, ”This cat seems rather gullible.” Hence, he continued by saying, ”Actually, I have some money stored in my bank account. To express my heartfelt apology, I'm willing to share with you my bank account and password and my hotel room number. My debit card and credit card are all there. There should be approximately RMB 1,000,000.”

Roly Poly could literally feel his heart pounding against his chest when that astronomical sum was mentioned, ”RMB 1,000,000? How much is that?” His tiny brain couldn't even comprehend just how much it was. He simply concluded that it was a large sum.

”I no longer have to cower in apprehension for fear that Zhao Yao might learn about the money I borrowed using his name. This fortune will last me a lifetime!”

Even though he had already extracted the vital information, Roly Poly did not stop with his questioning, ”I guess you have a way to contact the boss behind the lending platform. He should technically be hiding in this place as well.”

He continued by typing a string of words on the phone, ”If you can contact him, tell him these six words. Do not respond to Zhao Yao! Do not respond to Zhao Yao!”

Meanwhile, Matcha was happily taking photos with the fervor of a paparazzi snapping footages of the most recent scandals, ”I bet they're up to something evil! Just look at that sly smile on their face. I'll extort him using all these photos! After that, I'll betray him by giving these photos to Zhao Yao. From today onwards, he will be the abandoned prince that no one ever talks about.”
