After explaining to Inspector Ho, he finally dispatched his subordinates down to Zhao Yao’s apartment in order to bring the Japanese back for questioning.

The person who came down was Lin Chen. He was brimming with energy but seemed somewhat edgy as he constantly glanced at his watch.

“Alright, is it just the four of them?” Lin Chen asked as he began putting on the handcuffs on them.

When the Japanese saw Lin Chen coming for them, it was as good as seeing a long lost relative as tears welled up in their eyes. However, just when they were about to escape this hell hole, Zhao Yao stopped them at the door. Terror flashed in their eyes instantly.

“Wait a moment,” Naturally, Zhao Yao had already recognized Lin Chen. They had met several times during the cases involving the killer cat and the KFC incident. However, Lin Chen had no idea that Zhao Yao was the one behind them.

“What is it? Can you hurry up?” Lin Chen glanced at his watch restlessly and grumbled, “I paused my DOTA game to come here. My teammates are still waiting for me to return and continue the game.”

“Huh?” Zhao Yao instantly slid Lin Chen a condescending glare. Zhao Yao had no idea that the quality of our government officials had slumped to such a level.

Hanako was hiding in her bedroom as she observed the handing over of the trespassers. She thought, “Are all Chinese men so addicted to computer games?”

Even though flames of anger shot through Zhao Yao’s body, he still spoke in his most polite tone, “Officer, could you kindly leave behind your handphone number?”

“Why? Do you not trust me?” Lin Chen asked as his right eyebrow shot up.

Zhao Yao tried his best to suppress his anger and forced the most amiable smile he was capable of before explaining, “No, I just found this group of Japanese so warm and friendly as if they were my long lost friends. They have no friends in China so I hope you can contact me when they are released so that I can fetch them.”

Zhao Yao still held out hope that Sato would have further requests that Zhao Yao could help out with when he was released. Maybe there was also a cooldown time for these missions and the exclamation mark would return by the time they are released.

“Oh,” Lin Chen shot a suspicious glare at Zhao Yao and found his behavior extremely strange. However, he still whipped out his phone and said, “How about you just give me your number. I’ll call you when they are released.”

“No!” Sato exclaimed even before Zhao Yao managed to answer. With his body trembling in fear, he looked earnestly towards Lin Chen and explained, “Sir, do not trust him. This guy is psychopathic. He is only doing this to torture us.” The other three nodded their head violently in response. The past hour had them experienced a form of torture which they had never imagined possible.

“Stop making so much noise! You will explain the entire incident to me when we get back!” Lin Chen turned a deaf ear to their pleas and started exchanging number with Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao beamed from ear to ear after sending Lin Chen off. He thought, “Even though I might not be able to upgrade my cat rice, I can use such opportunities to earn more experience points! I must find a pattern to understand how these missions appear.”

With the delightful thought at the back of his head, he looked towards Hanako and asked, “Hanako, do you know of any Japanese international students?”

Hanako’s body started trembling as Zhao Yao’s voice rang in her head. Somehow, she felt a cold chill down her spine.

...

Within the dugout, the tattooed man stumbled along as he tried to escape with the teenager thrown across his back.

He was overcome with excitement and shock when memories of their adventure in the dugout flooded his head.

Initially, they came out in search of supercats. After realizing that the rocks were simply an obstacle, they circumvented it in an attempt to find an entrance. However, their efforts were in vain.

Suddenly, they heard cat meows coming from the other end of the cluster of rocks. Then, they found themselves inundated by a series of shrieks and screams which sounded exactly like a baby’s cry.

Naturally, they had no idea that these noises were actually produced by the supercats that were enjoying themselves in the Village of Dreams. In their heads, the screams turned increasingly shrilling as panic assailed them.

Reaching this stage, they had already contemplated the option of giving up since this dugout was too creepy and was something beyond their control.

When they were about to leave, the teenager whipped out his phone and took a photo to report the situation to his boss. He needed his boss to send in further reinforcements.

However, there was something fishy with the photos taken. The photos produced were different from what their eyes saw.

This discovery tempted them to explore the depths of the underdog, enchanted with illusion. One person was responsible to illuminate the interior of the dugout with his phone while the other explored further down. With their sense of sight, smell, touch, and hearing hindered by the illusion, they began their exploration within the illusion.

Within the dugout, all they saw was pitch darkness. Their head was flooded with the sound of babies’ cries. With their sense of touch affected by the illusion, they felt as if they were standing at the entrance to hell.

Suddenly, the teenager’s body went limp before collapsing to the floor. At first, they were clutching tightly onto each other’s arms as they ventured forth. This sudden collapse frightened the tattooed man and he immediately dragged the teenager out of that horrid place. Naturally, they had no idea about the existence of the illusion which would rob every one of their five senses. He thought the teenager’s soul had simply been taken away by some sort of devil.

“We caught a big fish! This cat king of Jiangmen University ... This strength ... I must capture it!”

“I need to go back and report everything to boss!”

...

The second morning, Zhao Yao reported to the cafe with two dark circles adorning his face. However, his eyes were brimming with excitement as he was thinking about finding people for more missions.

However, he was taken aback the moment he sat in his usual spot in the cafe.

“Illusion?” Zhao Yao rubbed his eyes vigorously and saw Matcha pushing Mango across the floor as if Mango was a piece of rag. From the looks of it, Matcha seemed pretty serious about it.

“Matcha, what are you doing?’

“Oh, boss, when did you arrive? I didn’t even see you coming!” Matcha replied earnestly, “I’m just taking care of the cleanliness of the café. I notice the floor was getting somewhat dirty and I decided to clean it. Don’t worry about me, I’ll be done soon.”

After explaining, Matcha resumed his hard work and began dragging Mango across the entire café. Mango squinted his eyes together and seemed like he was enjoying this process.

“This silly cat ...” Zhao Yao was left speechless by Matcha’s sudden change of behavior, “What stupid idea does he have in his head?”

Matcha was sniggering as he continued to clean the floor, “Meowhaha, I bet the old fool has been moved by my love for the café. Just pass the café down to me already! I am your true successor! Meowhahaha!”

For the next half an hour, Matcha continued cleaning the floor relentlessly in hopes of impressing Zhao Yao.

However, Zhao Yao was oblivious to Matcha’s actions. He was still deep in thought about his abilities, “Hanako had promised me to help contact some of her Japanese friends. However, I do not believe that nationally is the determining factor. I must start finding people that would allow me to help them. There surely is some pattern behind this phenomenon.”
