Chapter 26 - A cat does not serve two masters, do you understand?_1

Translator: 549690339

"Should have said so earlier!"

Mu You sighed with relief, it was much easier to communicate directly.

"Indeed, I am not the original Watchman, but I later inherited everything from him, and I learned about you from his diary, so I came specifically to find you..."

Mu You thought about it and decided to explain the situation directly to the cat.

Being able to call him Fool outright, the cat must possess some ability to discern lies. So instead of beating around the bush, he decided to lay his cards on the table. He needed help from this cat, but he believed the cat also needed his assistance even more at this point.

"What? You mean, as a Fool, you can communicate with the Star Spirit World?" The American shorthair cat looked at Mu You in astonishment.

"That's about right. Anyway, I have a way to move around in that world."

Mu You didn't know how to explain the existence of the 'Fool' game, they didn't have things like smartphones and hand-held games in the Star Spirit World.

"Great! Hurry up and contact my owner! Come quickly and take me back to the Star Spirit World, I don't want to stay in this awful place!" The American Shorthair cat was overjoyed, stopped struggling, and lay in front of the cage, looking at Mu You expectantly.

"I can help you find your owner, but you must also promise me one thing," Mu You said.

"What?"

"Before we find your owner and take you back to the Star Spirit World, you must stay by my side. I will provide you with food and a safe place to live, but within your capabilities, you also need to help me out," Mu You said.

"Stay at your place? Do you want me to be your pet?"

The American Shorthair cat looked at Mu You in disbelief, then angrily said, "What's with your jokes? The demons in our Star Spirit World have dignity! One cat does not serve two masters, get it? I already have an owner. There's no way I'm going to accept anyone else as my master, forget about it!"

Mu You smirked. Didn't expect it, but this cat was rather loyal.

"I am not asking you to acknowledge me as your master, you can consider me a master, a friend, or a companion, I don't care. But I believe you should have understood after hiding in this factory for ten or more days, this is not your Star Spirit World, this is a world dominated by us Fools! You were just lucky to be found by me first, and because I have no malice towards you, we can now converse equally like this. If you were found by someone else, you'd be in big trouble! You could easily be tortured or imprisoned, or even captured for dissection research in some labs..."

Mu You tried to present a worst-case scenario.

After only a few sentences, as expected, the American Shorthair got scared. It started licking its fur anxiously in the cage, growing increasingly restless. The idea of feline dissection for research... those Fools are truly cruel!

"Alright, for your sake, I will begrudgingly be your pet for a short while. However, let's be clear, I'm not a battle-type demon, I'm not doing anything dangerous!"

"Hehe, even if something dangerous happened, you wouldn't have a chance to get involved."

Seeing the cat's acceptance, Mu You chuckled. He mainly needed the cat's knowledge and insights about the Magic World. As for fighting, he never relied on it from the beginning.

"Let me out first!"

"I can let you out, but if you run away after being let out, then I won't trust you anymore." Mu You said to the American Shorthair, then opened the cage door for it.

The American Shorthair cat quickly crawled out of the cage and onto the open ground, finally letting out a breath of relief.

Then, as expected, it didn't run away. Instead, it stretched out its body, tail high in the air, body pressed downwards, with its forepaws stretching as far as it could; a cat's stretch.

Mu You knew that cats only behaved like this in front of people they trusted well. It looked like after presenting the pros and cons, it had truly let go of any hostility towards him.

Having stretched and moved around, the American Shorthair squatted down, licking its forepaws and calling out to Mu You: "I want food. Hurry up and feed me. I have been hungry for days!"

"I didn't bring food with me, it's all at home. Let's go home first."

Mu You took off his backpack, opened the zipper, and motioned for it to get in.

"Meow? You have Spatial Equipment?"

The American shorthair looked at Mu You in surprise but didn't ask further. It jumped into the backpack, and its voice came from inside: "I'm going to sleep now. Remember to wake me up when we get home."

"Carefree huh…"

Mu You twitched the corner of his mouth. Was this the same cat that had just been hissing and scratching him? The transition was too abrupt!

But it was a good thing that it stopped creating chaos.

Mu You closed the backpack, walked over to where he'd shot the arrows, picked up the remaining Anaesthetic Needle from the ground, and prepared to leave.

At this point, Lin Hai and the cameraman finally managed to break through the blockade on the first floor and made it to the third floor.

Seeing the unconscious figure lying on the ground, they hurried over to check. Upon finding out he was only unconscious, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, turning their heads, they saw Mu You walking down the hallway.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Mu You asked curiously. He looked at the unconscious youth on the ground, then sighed, "You should hurry and take him away. Don't wander around late at night in the future."

Lin Hai ignored his words and excitedly said, "Master, where did the ghost run off to? Did you catch it?"

"The 'ghost' has been subdued. There's nothing left for you to film here, you should hurry and leave," Mu You nodded.

But as soon as he finished his sentence, siren sounds came from the street outside. He frowned and looked at Lin Hai, "Did you call the police?"

Lin Hai quickly shook his head, "No, not me, it was the viewers in the live broadcast. You shot through our camera and the live broadcast suddenly cut off. They probably thought I was in danger, so they... "

Mu You frowned slightly, thought for a while, patted Lin Hai's shoulder and said, "I broke your equipment, but I also saved your friend's life, so let's call it even. If anyone asks you in the future, don't tell them about my existence, okay?"

Originally, Mu You planned to threaten and persuade them both and force them to keep his secret.

But he didn't expect Lin Hai to show a knowing expression after listening. With confidence, he said, "Master, you don't have to say it, I understand. All of you hidden experts don't want to expose yourselves to the world, right? Rest assured, even if we're beaten to death, we'll definitely keep your secret!"

Mu You looked at Lin Hai approvingly. The lad was teachable!

"Alright then, we won't meet again."

Mu You patted his shoulder and jumped off the balcony.

"Hey, Master?"

Lin Hai wanted to say something, but in the blink of an eye, the figure had jumped down. He hurriedly called out to the young cameraman, "Let's go downstairs!"

Two of them hurriedly helped the fainted youth downstairs and saw that Mu You had disappeared without a trace.

"What a master!"

"So strong!"

"What a pity we didn't catch it on tape..."

...

The two huddled together and sighed in awe.

At this time Lin Hai's phone rang. He saw that it was a call from his older sister!

Lin Hai hurriedly picked up the call, excitedly began talking before the other side could speak, "Sis! Let me tell you, I just met a real master! He can teleport, can shoot with unerring accuracy, and is capable of using light body skills to leap three feet high..."

Standing by, the young cameraman looked at Lin Hai with disdain. What happened to keeping secrets?
