King of 25 Cubs

[What do you think of this? 】

The system asks me.

"According to my plan, I will soon leave the military and police. Whether there is any problem with Fukuchi Sakurachi is their internal matter, and it has nothing to do with me."

So I put it on hold for now.

In the next few days, I collected all the families with Sanhua male cats through the mailbox, and after a thorough investigation, I picked out the most suspicious ones.

One set of messages caught my attention——

"Isn't this Miss Haruno Kirako, Butei's clerk?"

I clicked on the photo of the cat she raised, and then glanced at the pet information form: "...I was adopted just the day before yesterday, what a coincidence, this is Mr. Natsume!"

For this possibility, I went to the Armed Detective Agency in the scorching afternoon sun.After passing by the supermarket near the detective agency, I bought a box of ice cream and moved it to the detective agency to relieve the heat.

The moment I pushed the door open, Kunikida looked up and saw me, and his expression suddenly became tense.He stood up, took a few big strides and ran over to take the box in my hand and put it on the table beside him, stretched out his arms to help me onto the chair, and even took out a fan to fan me.

... What a good boy who respects the old and loves the young.

If it weren't for the resistance on my face, he might even beat my back.

"Well, I brought you ice cream—"

Before the words fell, Kunikida showed a disapproving look: "Senior sister, remember to call me in advance if you bring something heavy in the future, don't move it by yourself, the bones of the elderly are fragile, what should I do if my waist or ankle are sprained?" ?”

While Kunikida was chattering like chanting sutras, I gestured to Dr. Yosano with my eyes: Does he still know my real age?

Dr. Xie Ye shook his head and spread his hands: I don't know.

"..." I raised my hand: "Xtep, why don't you pick up a box of ice cream first?"

"It's Dupo, senior sister." Kunikida pushed his glasses, and said solemnly: "I'll forget about this kind of snacks that children eat."

Just happened to be picking ice cream with Dr. Yosano, when he heard this, he went behind Kunikida and slapped him on the back of the head, then grabbed Kunikida by the back collar and forcibly pulled him away.

"You can pick if you want, there's so much nonsense!"

Edogawa came out of the lounge in disorder, looking listless, he swayed to the carton containing the popsicles: "It's too hot, Mr. Detective is going to melt."

Me: "Strawberry or pineapple?"

"Strawberry~"

I picked out a box of strawberry ice and threw it to him, and he murmured while smacking the crushed ice: "Miss Chunye, your cat has been selected~"

"You know again?"

"Of course, don't look at who I am."

After seeing Haruno Haruko, I found a reason to "shoot cat competition promotional pictures".

"Really? There is such a good thing!"

Miss Haruno looked very happy, and promised to take me home to see her pussy after get off work.

There was still some time before I got off work, so I enjoyed Kunikida's service for the elderly again - he not only poured me tea, but also placed a magazine on the coffee table in front of me as before to relieve my boredom.

The magazine I read last time seemed to be "48 Knitting Skills: Knit a Scarf for My Grandson That All My Classmates Say Goodbye".

This time, I changed to "Purification of the Mind: Enjoying the Pastoral Life Slowly".

"..."

I opened the book with a sullen face, and spent the afternoon learning how to grow rice in cold regions.

After finally waiting for the members to get off work, I closed the book in my hand and followed Haruno Kirako to her house.

On the way, I started to say: "Sister Qi Luozi, I read the email received by the project team. It has been less than a week since Xiaomi arrived at your house?"

"Xiao Mi was a stray cat at the beginning. Do you remember that it rained a few days ago? After the rain stopped, it appeared outside my window sill. I saw that it was watered quite pitifully, so I let it in and gave it back. I took a shower and it stayed at my house afterwards."

Speaking of the cat she raised, Haruno Kiroko looked very happy, holding her face in her hands and said intoxicatedly: "Xiao Mi must be a gift from heaven to me."

——It may also be the uncle sent to you by God.

I thought with a slumped face.

Haruno Qiluozi lived not far from the detective agency, only about ten minutes away.After opening the door with the key, the owner turned on the light in the entrance, handed me a pair of slippers, went into the house and carried the cat out.

The "Little Mi" struggled a few times in Haruno Kirako's arms, and when he turned his head to glance at me, he struggled even harder.

"Xiao Mi, if you move around again, I will send you to be sterilized!"

It made a pause, lowered its head in a heartless manner, slowly lowered its head, and glared at me before lowering its head.

Haruno Qiluozi raised the cat's little paw with the pad, and waved it up and down: "Come on Xiaomi, say hello, this is sister Yugo."

I was startled, and quickly waved my hands: "Don't dare to act, don't dare to act, what a loss of life!"

Haruno Kirako: "???"

I was instantly sure that this was Natsume Soseki, with a strange expression on his face, hesitating for a moment, and I asked: "Well, why do you need to be neutered? Aren't all male and three flower cats..." Infertile?

Haruno Qiluozi raised her head, and asked half a beat later: "Ah? Is it? Is it male?"

Me: "...you don't know?"

"I don't know, it won't let me see it." This silly sister tilted her head: "But every time I threaten Xiaomi to be sterilized, it will be obedient. Speaking of it, it is quite humane, and it can take a bath by itself !"

Immediately an idea came to my mind: "You must see whether it is a male or a female, otherwise it will be a problem whether it is neutering or finding other kittens to breed. I have many years of experience in raising cats, and I must listen to this matter. of!"

I was very happy to stretch out my sinful hands: "Sister, hold it steady, let me see!"

"Meow meow meow?"

"Meow--!!!!!!!"

Sanhuamao broke free from Haruno Qiluozi's grasp and ran around the room.

"Hahaha, little cat, don't run away."

I jumped up and chased after it. In an instant, cat hair and furniture flew together, screaming and laughing together.

Haruno Qiluozi pinched her chin and looked at us for a while, then said with a smile: "It's such a good relationship, I'm so happy when we first meet."

After a while, people and cats couldn't run anymore, Haruno Kirako went to the kitchen to make tea, I slumped on the sofa and turned my head away.

"Mr. Natsume." I said softly.

Sanhuamao straightened up slightly, and looked at me with condescending and slightly reproachful round eyes, as if to say, "Why do you want me? Can't I let me be a kitten that has lived peacefully for a long time?"

Of course he didn't say this, but it's amazing that I understood it.

"After I leave in a while, can you find an opportunity to come out and remove the ability, let's have a good talk."

Natsume Soseki ignored me and concentrated on licking his paws.

I rolled my eyes, squeezed my throat and acted like a baby with him: "Master~"

Unmoved, he changed his paw to lick it, as if he was really a kitten.

I scratched my head, thinking that this little kitty is so difficult to deal with.

"I want to tell Master that you are hiding in his female subordinate's house."

I looked at him blankly and spoke coldly.

Probably seeing my attitude of insisting on talking, Miao Mi lowered her paw and let out a "meow" helplessly, as if agreeing.

Haruno Qiluozi just walked out of the kitchen with fruit tea at this time, and smiled: "You get along very well."

Mr. Natsume patted the back of my hand with his cat's paw angrily. The pad was soft and didn't hurt at all.

"Sister Haruno, this is what I think about the promotional photos..."

Next, Haruno Kirako and I discussed the time and place to take the promotional photos, and bid farewell at the right time.After I left Haruno’s house, I didn’t go far. Instead, I found a nearby park and bought a packet of dried fish. I wanted to feed the stray cats. However, recently, those stray cats are harassed by me and Dazai, so they don’t go out for a walk during the day. up.

There is no cat around, so I feel lonely.

After a while, Mr. Natsume found me, my eyes lit up, who said there are no more cats, isn’t this a cat?

I took out a small dried fish and waved it in front of Mr. Natsume's eyes.

He jumped up and accurately grabbed the small dried fish in my hand, landed in front of me, took a few steps forward, and turned to look at me again.

"Do you want me to follow you?"

Mr. Natsume nodded the cat's head, turned around and continued walking forward.This walk has gone a long way, not only went to the suburbs, but also climbed a hill, and finally Mr. Natsume stopped in front of an old dilapidated bungalow.

Push open the rusty gate and follow the guidance of the cat through the courtyard. Weeds are overgrown in the courtyard, and the cobblestone path is paved into a soft green carpet. A few clumps of chamomile that no one cares about grow unscrupulously here and there.

"Mr. Natsume, if your ears were longer, this would be Alice in Wonderland." I joked.

There is also a well in the yard. At first I thought the well was dry. When I passed by, I glanced at the bottom of the well, only to find that it was not dry. There were even two koi swimming in the clear well water.

Compared with the vibrant courtyard, the old bungalow looks like a product of the last century. If it weren't for the dust swirling lively in the sunset, I would think that this house was frozen in the gap of time.

But looking at the broken ornaments and broken glass around, I bet someone must have fought here.

Carefully avoiding the broken stained glass, I followed Mr. Natsume to the open and spacious rotunda,

The cat stopped three steps away from me, turned around, and looked at me silently.

Looking at his eyes that seem to be able to speak, I suddenly felt blessed: "Would you like me to step back?"

Cat nods.

I always felt that the opponent was going to use a big move, so I retreated ten steps away in embarrassment.

"is this okay?"

Cat nodded again.

The next development was beyond my expectation. I only heard a loud "boom", the ground seemed to shake, and the dazzling light blasted from Mr. Natsume's body.When I opened my eyes again, there was smoke and dust that seemed to be after an explosion. When the smoke and dust cleared, an elderly gentleman in a windbreaker and a top hat who looked very elegant appeared ten steps away.

He even has three-flowered hair under the hat!

The solid marble floor under Mr. Natsume's feet has cracked into a large pit, exposing the foundation and gray-white stones below. I suspect that he just jumped up from the pit.

Fortunately, this is the first floor, otherwise the whole floor might collapse in half.

I fell silent, and finally couldn't hold it back, and choked out a sentence: "Your fart is really powerful."

At this moment, I especially miss Aitford's Sakura Chi, who also farts. Every time Captain Hound farts, the team members dislike him, and Mr. Natsume's fart can collapse a floor.

Mr. Natsume deserves to be the strongest supernatural being.

Natsume Soseki, the king of farting: "..."

Maybe I was too indifferent, Mr. Natsume was so angry that he ran over to beat me with a cane.

"How did Fukuzawa Yukichi educate you? It's too rude!"

I hugged my head and ran around while apologizing: "I'm sorry for embarrassing my master, but you just changed your body, why are you making such a big fight!"

Natsume Soseki hit me on the head with a cane: "Do you think why I don't like to restore my human body? Isn't it because changing from a cat to a human is too exciting!"

"Then it's fine if you don't become a cat!"

"If I don't become a cat, the people who look for me every day can line up from Yokohama Port to Hokkaido! I'm getting old, can't I enjoy my retirement life?!"

"Retirement is retirement. Why did you go to Miss Chunye's house? Do you think it's appropriate for a single girl to raise an uncle?"

"Who did I become a house cat because of? Where did you learn all those bad ideas? That's what Fukuzawa Yukichi taught you?"

"One thing to say, my master is definitely not as flexible as I am!" I squatted down protecting my head, and continued to run forward after avoiding a cane sweep.

"Smelly girl no matter how big or small, stop for me!"

……

We went around the hall for several times, and finally a truce was finally made. The main reason was that Mr. Natsume felt that it was a bit of a waste of value to care about me as a child, so he unilaterally decided to forgive me.

He patted the dust on his sleeves, cleared his throat: "Hey, what do you have to make a long story short."

At this time, I thought of what Gao Suiyujiang said before. She said that on the night I was born, she saw a three-colored cat near the trash can.

I thought about it and asked, "What did 'I' say to you the night you first met me?"
