422 Capture the Cat I ? (1/2)

The sky was adorned with a rainbow of colors shooting out from that weird sun. Zhao Yao couldn't help but shake his head at this scene. All of a sudden, a gate appeared out of nowhere as Zhao Yao disappeared into his dimensional belly.

Zhao Yao's eyes glanced across his mission panel and he realized that he had yet to complete the mission even though he had already met all the supercats back in his apartment in the real world.

”I guess most people are still clueless that this world is nothing but an extension of their imagination, a part of their dream state. In that case, my mission remains the same – find my remaining suupercats and kill everyone living in this world to transport them back to the real world.”

Zhao Yao's fingers were running through his hair when a thought suddenly popped into his head, ”Do you know where Dust Ball, Ares, and Red Packet are hiding at?”

Zhao Yao was inundated by a sea of shaking heads. This was the first time the supercats had gathered together since arriving in this dream world. However, they did share the common vague memory that everyone had left Zhao Yao's apartment.

Suddenly, Sphynx Cat began to lick the corner of his lips before muttering, ”I do have some idea as to where Ares and gang are hiding.”

Moments later, Sphynx Cat and Zhao Yao had re-appeared at a bustling street along Jiangmen City with Zhao Yao trailing immediately behind Sphynx Cat, ”How did you even learn about their whereabouts?”

Sphynx Cat replied matter-of-factly, ”I was with them the moment I arrived in this dream world.” Suddenly, a whiff of familiar scent rushed into his nose, confirming the route.

Look of suspicion and doubt appeared on Zhao Yao's face as he sneered, ”Are you sure? I don't want to spend the rest of the day looking for them in vain.”

”Stop complaining! I told you that I remembered! Anyway, we are almost there already. It should be around that corner.”

Half an hour later, the duo continued to linger around that same spot as Sphynx Cat continued tracking that familiar scent. However, Zhao Yao had already stopped in his tracks. A monstrous object, resting in the middle of the road had caught his eye, ”What the hell is that?”

Sphynx Cat slid him a disdainful glare and commented, ”Isn't that just a regular transit elevated bus? Haven't you been on one before?” Evidently, an extended stay in the dream world had distorted the individual's perception of the world.

”Your perception of the world gets increasingly skewed as you spend more time in here. This means I have no time to waste.” Zhao Yao was left speechless, ”However, this transit elevated bus seems rather familiar … don't tell me he was the one who created it.”

The monstrous object lying in the middle of the road looked too futuristic to be real. The vehicle was at least six meters tall, towering over your normal cars and vans. However, there was a huge hollow gap beneath its chassis, allowing all vehicles to whizz under it. This was the project which Xiao Ming had invested in previously. I guess it finally took off in the dream world.

As expected, a photograph of Xiao Ming was printed on the back of the vehicle. Xiao Ming was smartly dressed in his Canali suit, sporting his most radiant smile. He even had a cat in his arms.

”How narcissistic! Which person would even want their face printed on this monstrosity? And that cat…” Zhao Yao's eyes squinted into a hard line as he recognized that cat from the picture, ”So that's where Red Packet has been hiding.”

…

Perched on top of Jiangmen City's beautiful skyline was the tallest skyscraper. In it stood Xiao Ming dressed in his bathrobes with a bottle of champagne in his hands. From there, he had the perfect view of the city all to himself.

”This is spectacular.” A broad smile stretched across Xiao Ming's face. Memories of him turning his transit elevated bus project from a dream into reality flooded his mind. Now, he was a multi-millionaire sitting on his transportation throne. That warm, fuzzy feeling fluttered through him everytime he thought about it, ”With a new line opening tomorrow, the company's stock will immediately skyrocket, turning me into the richest man in the world!”

Red Packet was sunbathing on his exquisite Fabio leather sofa when his claws accidentally tore a hole in it.

”Hmph, if I was in a regular household, my owner would have killed me. However, I'm the pet of the richest man alive. What is a Fabio sofa to me? Nothing! Absolutely nothing!”
