Chapter 529 (1/2)

Let’s come back to Hao Ren. He had left Raven 12345’s house together with two people (including a cat). He was walking along the only commercial street in the Southern Suburbs. Rollie would not stop looking around and there were times when she almost transformed back into her cat form. But luckily, Hao Ren had been keeping an eye on her.

It was the first time that the cat girl could observe the old familiar street from a human perspective. After she transformed into a human in the wilderness the previous night, she went home to sleep early in the morning as usual. She did not have the time to go for a stroll on the street.

“It’s different,” the cat girl muttered while she touched her hair uncomfortably. Hao Ren quickly held her hand and warned, “Don’t take off your hat! Don’t wag your tail! If you get exposed, you’ll never be allowed to go out again.”

On the way home, Hao Ren suddenly remembered that he had to get two sets of clothing for Rollie. After all, she could not keep wearing Lily’s clothes, so he took her to the shopping street. In order to prevent the cat girl from exposing her identity, he put a soft, wide-brimmed hat on her head. He then hid her tail with a coat, and also got her to carry a small backpack to cover up. Such a disguise was supposedly enough. Usually, Y’lisabet just wore a hat and contact lenses, and it worked well. However, Hao Ren had apparently underestimated a cat’s nature. A simple act of keeping Rollie walking upright had already drained his energy… This cat was much more difficult to deal with than the demon princess!

Now he was glad that he had expected Rollie’s inability to control her tail. He had already tied her tail to her back, and he got her to wear a very big shirt, which easily covered the tail.

But even so, Hao Ren still felt a bit scared the entire time. He was thinking about how easy it was for the cat girl to expose her identity on the street. What was he to do in the future?

He did not think that he could keep the wild cat girl at home for long. It was difficult enough to control her when she was still a cat, not to mention now when she was a human. The girl had always wanted to go out, but Hao Ren could not just let her walk on the street with her cat ears on her head and a tail behind her. This would surely become a hot topic on social media.

However, the cat girl was not aware that her owner was worried about her. She was just strolling along the street when she suddenly saw someone selling grilled fish. She got excited and rushed towards it straightaway. By the time Hao Ren saw it, she had already reached the stall and…

Then she found a safe place to squat down. And then, she kept a sharp eye on the customers who were eating grilled fish, waiting for table scraps dropping from them while being ready to flee when someone threw stones at her. She looked so skilled in it that she obviously did it very often.

Hao Ren stunned for a moment before he could react. “Come back!” he yelled.

But he was too late as the boss of the stall found a beautiful lady rushing to his stall and squatting in front of him. He thought that she wanted to buy grilled fish (although the cat girl’s posture was a little out of ordinary). “Want a grilled fish?” he asked and handed her a freshly grilled fish.

The cat girl thought it was for her, so she quickly grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth. The next second she spit it out, scratching her throat and crying, “Aargh, it hurts! Hurts so bad!!”

The boss was stunned. He had probably never seen such a sensitive tongue throughout his career and he thought that the girl was sent by the stall selling roasted mutton to disrupt his business. Luckily, Hao Ren and Nangong Sanba kept explaining and apologizing. They also bought some grilled fish from the boss and finally smoothed things out. Then, they quickly dragged the cat girl away and left the place.

“Don’t you know that cats can’t eat things that are too hot?!” Hao Ren stomped his foot while he scolded the cat. She was still stupid even after turning into a human. “And, don’t you know that you have to pay for the food!?”

“I don’t know!” the cat girl said it with pride even though her tears were on the verge of streaming down.

Hao Ren was angry, but then he thought for a moment and figured it out. Even if Rollie was able to speak the human language, she would not understand the rules of human society.

And for the first time, she knew that she could not eat anything hot. “So, that’s how ‘hot’ feels like? The food is very hot, so it hurts to eat? But, why was I never hurt when I was eating before?”

“Because I cooled the food down before I gave it to you, and you could never pick up anything hot on the ground when you roamed outside.” Hao Ren rolled his eyes and said, “Can you please listen to me? Did you forget what I’ve just told you? If you’re exposed, you’ll never be allowed to go out again.”

The cat girl was not listening to Hao Ren. She just stuck out her tongue to cool it down as she muttered, “Poop Scooper, I didn’t realize you’ve been treating me so well.”

Hao Ren was furious when he heard “Poop Scooper”. “How many times have I told you, stop calling me that! If you know I treat you well, then why can’t you show me some respect?!”
