Zhao Yao chucked and continued, “It’s nothing. Someone always dies in a drama series. If Jack is dead, you can find another Mike or John.”

He grabbed the phone and started to search for another drama series for Elizabeth, “1 Liter of Tears, I guarantee that you will forget all your sorrows and be on cloud nine when you finish this show.”

“Really?” Elizabeth blinked at Zhao Yao with a look of naivety.

Zhao Yao replied with a matter of fact tone, “I’m serious. This is extremely healing; humans always watch it after having a bad breakup.”

“Alright, I’ll try one episode.”

Elizabeth was devastated after watching Titanic. However, Zhao Yao took it as the emptiness you felt after watching a good movie and went back to his training.

While everyone was fast asleep, spirit cat snatched the phone from Elizabeth’s paw and ran to the rooftop.

It used Elizabeth’s phone to add a few contacts on her WeChat and sent a few messages. Then, it deleted the messages and contacts from her phone and returned to the apartment.

…

Tianhe Royal Court, 42nd Mansion.

Ho Hao Cang was vexed by all the things which had happened today and could not fall asleep as he flipped and turned on the sofa.

The maids in the house tiptoed past him as they felt his anger in the air and did not want to do anything to infuriate him.

Suddenly, there was a loud clank, and a female maid immediately bowed down and repeatedly apologized, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’ll clean this up immediately.”

Hu Hao Cang opened his left eye to take a peep at what had happened. The maid was busy cleaning up the mess that she had made. His eyebrows were knitted together, but he did not say a word.

However, his eyes seethed with anger when he saw the maid putting all the food which she had spilled on the floor back onto the plates.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

The maid was a little confused and whispered, “This … this is for the cats; I think it’s okay for them to eat food that has dropped onto the floor…”

“You want to feed my cats with food that has been polluted by this filthy floor?” Ho Hao Cang sat up and stared daggers at the maid’s eyes. He retorted, “Would you eat this food if I offered it to you?”

The maid was trembling from head to toe and did not dare to respond.

Just when she thought she was about to faint, Ho Hao Cang went back to his sofa and said, “Alright, just throw away the food in your hands. But remember, the food which the cats eat in this house must be of superior quality. The cats’ food must be better than the food that you eat.

You can eat the food that has spilled onto the floor, but you can never feed my cats with it.”

Ho Hao Cang let the maid go before thinking about the things which worried him.

He had planned to take down the Xiaos for months, and he was on the verge of succeeding. However, it got destroyed by an anonymous figure, and now both his apostle and supercat were missing. His lips pursed with suppressed fury at the thought of it.

However, he was still not done with the Xiaos. Even though he had committed a major screw-up this time, he still had some ways to take them down.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated, and he saw someone had added him on WeChat with a message: I am Nekomata

Ho Hao Cang sprang up when he saw the message and accepted the friend request. He immediately asked, “Nekomata, what happened? Where are you? I’ll send someone over to save you immediately.”

“I’m fine,” Nekomata continued, “I’m currently stalking the person who defeated Specter.”

“Where are you guys at?”

Then, an enormous but invisible wave spread radially from the 42nd Mansion and turned into a huge undercurrent. This undercurrent penetrated every nook and crannies within Jiangmen city.

When the sun rose the following day; Ho Hao Cang had already collected a stack of detailed information regarding Zhao Yao.

“He had just graduated from university one year ago and was a programmer. He suddenly amassed a large amount of wealth and opened a cat café.” Ho Hao Cang spent the entire night reading through Zhao Yao’s information. He pondered, “How am I supposed to deal with him?”

Because of Inspector Ho’s attempt to hide Zhao Yao’s identity, Ho Hao Cang did not manage to acquire the most vital information regarding Zhao Yao for the past few months.

In Ho Hao Cang’s eyes, Zhao Yao was just an ordinary guy who was lucky enough to find a supercat and turned into an apostle. He got rich using his power and spent it in his apartment, house, and café.

However, Zhao Yao was the person who destroyed his master plan to take down the Xiaos. He was also the one who defeated Specter.

No matter what, he still had the power to take down the Xiaos. The only thing he had to consider was how he intended to deal with Zhao Yao.

While Ho Hao Cang was busy pondering over what to do, an orange spotted cat came over to him and took a look at Zhao Yao’s photo.

This was the cat which had saved Shi Yu’s live with its power of regeneration, and it was the cat which Ho Hao Cang had named Lucifer.

Lucifer’s heart sank when it saw the photo in Ho Hao Cang’s hands. It recognized Zhao Yao as the person who tried to find it alongside Shi Yu and was the one who defeated the killer cat and saved Shi Yu’s live.

Even with the power of regeneration, Shi Yu would have died if Zhao Yao did not intervene and stopped its rampage.

At that moment, Lucifer was hiding in the shadows and did not dare to retaliate and save Shi Yu when it saw killer cat’s rampage. It was Zhao Yao who rescued her.

Lucifer knew that Zhao Yao was in trouble the moment Ho Hao Cang identified the man behind the mask.

Even though Lucifer understood how strong Zhao Yao was during his fight against the killer cat, Lucifer also knew how terrifying Ho Hao Cang was, and no one in this world could defeat him.

“No matter how strong Zhao Yao is, he would still be crushed by Ho Hao Cang if he decided to take care of Zhao Yao.” Lucifer thought, “I must find a way to delay this and prevent Ho Hao Cang from taking any drastic actions against Zhao Yao.”

Hao Cang caressed the fur on Lucifer’s back and asked, “Lucifer, what do you think I should do to deal with this Zhao Yao?”

Lucifer jumped onto a phone and typed out a string of words: “This Zhao Yao used to take care of me when I was a stray cat. Can you think of a way to recruit him instead?”

“He fed you?” Hao Cang scratched his chin and thought, “Hmm, he does live pretty near to where I found you. I guess it doesn’t hurt for me to visit him.”

…

Zhao Yao rubbed his eyes as he was awakened by the sunlight which flooded his room. However, he sensed a strange smell in the apartment.

He took in another breath, but the scent had disappeared.

He shook his head before crawling out of his bed. He looked at Matcha which was fast asleep with his head buried in his chest, “Get up and go to work!”

“I’m coming,” Matcha mumbled, “Just give me one more minute.”
