Chapter 136 Punishment World 2 HPD Dad 2

The bright incandescent light burned through his eyelids. Zhuozhuo opened his eyes with difficulty and found himself lying in a cage with a soft floral cushion under him. His hind legs and stomach felt restrained, and there was a milky fragrance in his mouth that he couldn't tell if it was an illusion.

Zhuozhuo cautiously remained silent, twisting her head to see half her body wrapped in white gauze. The thought flashed through her mind: "The doctor is applying medicine and bandaging her," but her cat-like nature made her stare wide with fear as she struggled to support her limbs and stand.

When I pushed forward, I realized that there was a splint on my hind leg, so I couldn't bend it at all and could only drag it straight.

Zhuozhuo understood that it was because her leg was broken, but she was still frightened. She tried to support her body with her front paws, dragged her immobilized hind legs to the side of the cage, and pushed hard with her round head.

The cage is locked and cannot be opened.

Zhuozhuo was not alarmed by this. She changed direction and pushed again.

Still can't open it.

But Zhuozhuo the little cat was full of perseverance. She continued to change direction and continued to hit the iron bars with her head.

When Shen Qingxian emerged from the bathroom, he saw the kitten whimpering and pushing against its cage. Its long fur peeked through the gap, giving the illusion of a cat in disguise. He coughed, and the kitten shuddered, suddenly scrambling to the back of the cage, curling up and staring at him.

He doesn't look very smart.

Shen Qingxian walked over, opened the cage door and ignored her. He casually brushed his hair with a bath towel and lay lazily on the sofa.

Zhuozhuo arched her back and panted, her paws kicking in fear. Seeing Shen Qingxian walk away without even looking back, she was a little confused. After a while, seeing that the person on the sofa didn't move, Zhuozhuo tentatively moved forward and waited nervously for a moment, but still nothing happened.

The kitten struggled to paw its way out of the cage.

There is still a strange world outside the cage, with dark gray carpets, light gray walls, and various furniture of varying shades of gray, which looks particularly depressing.

Zhuozhuo quietly observed her surroundings. Aside from the couch where someone lay, the rest of the place was impossibly tidy, as if an invisible vacuum cleaner was operating 24/7 in every corner. She couldn't find anything resembling a door, and was struggling to decide which way to go when a slight "click" startled her. She turned and ducked into the cage, staring out with wide eyes.

It turned out that the person on the sofa had fallen off his slippers.

It was a false alarm.

But the kitten didn't dare to embark on her second adventure right away. She huddled in the corner of the cage, staring at the other creature in the room, intending to drive him away.

Suddenly a voice rang out, "Baby, go call daddy and hug his thighs."

Zhuozhuo shuddered with fear and looked around with her little head shaking in terror. When she realized that the noise was caused by the cat head with a very low sense of presence, she meowed angrily and waved her claws to swat the cat head floating in the air down.

After the photoshoot, Zhuozhuo finally realized what the cat head had said. She was shocked and still didn't understand. The mother cat said that her cat father could be a muscular tabby cat, a fat long-haired orange cat, or a lame white cat who fights to the death.

But it was never mentioned that her cat father might be a human.

It turns out that humans and cats can also have babies!

Zhuozhuo stuck out his little head to look at Shen Qingxian, this time mainly to observe the similarities between him and himself.

This observation is truly remarkable! She and her father look so much alike! They both have two ears, two eyes, two nostrils, a mouth, and four legs! However, her father walks on his hind legs like other humans, and I don't know if that's tiring.

Of course there are some differences, for example, daddy has no tail and only has hair on the top of his head.

Zhuozhuo was very happy. Fortunately, she inherited these two characteristics from her mother cat. She didn't want to be a kitten without a tail and hair. However, Zhuozhuo has long hair, while her mother and father have short hair. She didn't know whose hair she inherited from.

Maybe it's a genetic mutation.

Zhuozhuo Cat Face was thinking deeply, and this word popped up in his mind.

Shen Qingxian followed the doctor's advice and didn't disturb the kitten too much, letting her get used to the unfamiliar environment and smells. He closed his eyes and listened to the noises the little one made. Suddenly, he wondered if she had been quiet for too long this time.

After a while, there was still no sound. Shen Qingxian couldn't help but open his eyes, and suddenly met a pair of big round eyes. The cat's eyes were very close, right at his feet. He didn't know how she crawled over, there was no movement at all. The kitten's eyes were sparkling, not afraid or confused, but full of curiosity and...admiration?

Shen Qingxian confirmed that it was indeed Ru Mu.

Let’s not talk about why the kitten feels admiration for him. Would a normal kitten have this kind of look?

Interest flashed in Shen Qingxian's eyes, and he watched quietly to see what else this little cat could do.

The kitten fell flat on his feet with a meow, as weak as a victim of fraud, but she climbed up with a strong will and climbed up his legs...

As expected, he fell down again.

Shen Qingxian glanced at the distance between the cage and here, and felt that if the little guy continued to struggle, his wrapped legs would break again. However, he did not stop him, but watched leisurely.

But after failing several times, Zhuozhuo realized that she couldn't climb up due to her current leg problems, so she gave up. She looked at Shen Qingxian's flat belly reluctantly, but she really felt that it was not as comfortable and beautiful as her mother's plump belly, so her reluctance dissipated.

Zhuozhuo wanted to snuggle up to Shen Qingxian's feet, but the cat head was clamoring beside her ear: "Baby! Your feet stink! We can't sleep at his feet! Let's go to the bed! Occupy Shen Qingxian's big bed! Sleep on top of Shen Qingxian's head! Make him treat you like his sweetheart and give you everything!"

9972 was very excited. It didn't expect that Zhuozhuo was not even a human being, but could be picked up and taken home by the target of the mission. She was a "holy body born to carry out missions"!

Whenever 9972 thought about the fact that no host had yet successfully completed the task of punishing the world, its data began to jump around, as if it had already seen the happy time when Zhuozhuo completed the task and it won easily to become the number one ruler of the main world.

Worried that Zhuozhuo, who was in a state of amnesia, would miss the mission target and the opportunity to interact and cultivate feelings with the mission target, 9972 could not help but urge him on, and he wished he could use a sliding shovel to pick up the little cat Zhuozhuo and carry it to Shen Qingxian's bed.

Seeing that the cat head dared to scare her, Zhuozhuo stared at it, her pupils constricted. Suddenly, she jumped up and smacked it to the ground with her soft claws. She even wanted to chase it and give it another claw. But her hind legs were too weak, so she had to give up for the time being.

[……]

9972 understood Zhuozhuo's regretful look and didn't dare to get any closer. Instead, he huddled in the gap between the cabinet and the wall and shouted to Zhuozhuo, "Baby, I'm your guardian... my companion spirit. My name is 9972. I'm here to be your good friend. Please don't treat me like a bad person, and don't take pictures of me anymore, okay?"

It wanted to say "guardian angel", but it was too shameless.

Zhuozhuo ignored these words and didn't care at all. After careful consideration, she also felt that sleeping at the feet was not a good idea. She raised her little head to observe the surroundings and took a fancy to Shen Qingxian's bath towel.

The bath towel was white, a rare color in the room, and was half hanging on the sofa. The kitten could reach it with its claws if it tried hard. If it tried harder, it could pull the bath towel down bit by bit.

The bath towel smelled nice, almost the same as the smell on Daddy's body. The little kitten climbed on it, stepped on it with its front paws, and lay down happily.

9972 quickly impressed Zhuozhuo before she fell asleep, "Baby, we want Shen Qingxian to treat you well and give you everything he has."

As soon as the words were spoken, the kitten's claws flashed and slapped the kitten's head away without warning. It was like a ghostly and shadowless claw.

9972 collapsed on the ground, marveling at Zhuozhuo's immense strength. He was sure he'd be unbeatable when he grew up. After being beaten so many times, he calmed down a bit, and this calmness made him remember how incompetent he was. He no longer dared to dictate Zhuozhuo's tasks, and even prayed that Zhuozhuo would forget what he had just said.

Seeing that the cat's head was beaten into submission, the little kitten Zhuozhuo stood up on its front legs and stared at it, saying in a baby voice, "Meow!" before staggeringly lying down again, closing its eyes and going to sleep.

Unable to sleep, with discomfort in her stomach and hind legs, Zhuozhuo flexibly twisted her body and patiently began to lick the gauze. She knew the gauze could not be licked off, but she just couldn't help it, she wanted to lick it so badly that she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't.

There was a sound of fabric rubbing against each other, and the little cat immediately looked up alertly, and then was hit by the falling bath towel, "Meow——"

The kitten was immediately smashed into a cat pancake. She was stunned for a few seconds before she tried hard to push in one direction and finally managed to push out tremblingly.

When the kitten's round head emerged, a soft laugh echoed from above. She strained to look up, but before she could see a face, Shen Qingxian squatted down, pinching the back of her neck and lifting her up. Zhuozhuo immediately froze, her limbs dangling like a kitten pendant. Shen Qingxian shook it, and the kitten pendant swayed silkily in wavy lines.

Shen Qingxian laughed again, "Silly little cat, I'm sorry, I accidentally knocked half of the bath towel off the sofa. Did it break? Touch your head to make it less painful."

Zhuozhuo didn't care about this at first, but after hearing what he said, she inexplicably felt that he did it on purpose. Before Xiaomao could express her emotions, Shen Qingxian used one finger to smooth the fur on her head twice, and then touched her stomach, "Are you hungry? Your stomach is flat."

Zhuozhuo had been tossing and turning since waking up, and had consumed a lot of energy. When she heard this, she immediately felt hungry, but obviously not as hungry as she was in the cafeteria that night. She thought that Shen Qingxian had fed her, and she immediately felt a little closer to him, forgetting the unpleasantness just now, and called to him softly, "Meow——"

Come on, feed me.

"Wait, I'll make you some milk powder."

Shen Qingxian put the kitten on the sofa. He rummaged through the bag on the table, spread the contents everywhere, and finally pointed to three bags of goat milk powder, a bottle, and a cat food bowl and asked her which bag she wanted to drink from and whether she wanted to use the bottle or the bowl.

Zhuozhuo carefully observed the items and finally chose the bag of goat milk powder and cat food bowl with the most colorful packaging. As for why he didn't choose the bottle, it was simply because it was not as big as the bowl.

Although the kitten is small in size, she is a big foodie and feels that the small bottle of milk is not enough to satisfy her!

"So smart." Shen Qingxian looked at Zhuozhuo a few more times in surprise. He just asked casually and pretended to do so, but he didn't expect the kitten to actually respond.

More interesting.

Shen Qingxian got up to make milk powder. He moved very quickly and used a lot of tools, including a water cup, thermometer, stirring spoon, electronic scale, etc. He even accidentally spilled a small amount of water on the floor.

Everywhere it goes is messy, which is out of place in the tidy kitchen, just like a messy sofa table is very eye-catching in the living room.

But Shen Qingxian had no intention of cleaning up at all.

"Here comes the goat milk."

Shen Qingxian glanced around the living room and chose the French window as his permanent feeding spot. He took a few quick steps, carrying the goat milk, and somehow kicked the cat's head in the corner. The cat's head was intangible to the people in the small world, so he kicked at nothing. But 9972 felt a chill run down his spine, his data scrambling, as if Shen Qingxian had really kicked it.

Anxiety made the system think, and 9972 couldn't help but wonder. At present, the target of the mission seems to be cheerful and outgoing, gentle, kind and loving, and is a top student with very good interpersonal relationships. Why would this small world become the most dangerous and highest mortality punishment world?
