Chapter 453 Even when stealing, there should be reciprocity.



The sound came from the throat.

The black cat looked at the two people, its golden cat eyes glowing faintly in the night, which was rather eerie.

The two people turned around instantly upon hearing the sound!

The two exchanged a glance. Wasn't this the black cat they were looking for? It was even wet, with a small sea turtle in its mouth. Had it gone to the sea to catch turtles?

Whatever it did, it's just in time to come back!

They noticed the black cat's alertness, and one of them nimbly flipped over from the side to behind it.

The person in front slowly pulled out a small dried fish from his pocket. He lowered his body and used the dried fish to lure the black cat over.

The black cat didn't move. It looked at the fool in front of it. Did he think it was a three-year-old kitten?

The man clearly realized that a single dried fish was no longer appealing, so he reached into his pocket and pulled out a bag of dried fish!

This is all the cat food he brought.

The man dared not make a sound, but he still tried his best to wave at the black cat. However, even though his hand was almost broken from waving, the black cat remained unmoved.

The man was unwilling to give up, but he didn't dare to stay there any longer, lest he disturb the people on the boat. So, he gave a look to his companion behind him.

His companion immediately understood, and he slowly spread out a fishing net before suddenly pouncing on the black cat!

The black cat had its back to him the whole time, and this seemingly foolproof pounce missed its target!

The man quickly stood up, only to find the black cat already perched on the railing! Its pale golden eyes stared at them with an eerie look that made it seem as if it were watching a joke!

Both abandoned the gentle trapping method. One held a fishing net, and the other held a tranquilizer gun. One chased, and the other blocked!

In this narrow passage, no more than five meters in front and behind, the black cat leaped around with ease, while the two people stumbled and pounced about.

The fierce roar of the waves at sea drowned out any sounds from here.

Suddenly, someone said, "What should we do? If we can't catch this cat, we might as well jump into the sea and commit suicide!"

Another person said, "Keep catching it, don't give up! This cat is so smart, which just proves that our judgment was correct!"

So the two continued to surround the black cat.

Just when the two were about to be driven crazy by the black cat, suddenly, several more people climbed overboard from outside the boat!

They were all agile and nimble, nimbly vaulting over the railings and standing on the deck.

The two men from the front looked warily at the latter! There were also two of them!

However, the four people stared at each other for only two seconds before two more people suddenly appeared in the corridor! The two people, one in front and one behind, looked at the scene with a mixture of vigilance and shock.

In an instant, the group of people snapped back to their senses!

These people are not on this ship!

Since they're all thieves, there's no need to be so particular.

The two people who were at the beginning continued to pounce on the black cat!

The four people who arrived later were also after Black Cat! After a brief assessment of the situation, they immediately joined the battle!

Several people were trying to catch the black cat while also preventing it from being captured by others. They bumped and jostled in the cramped space, and somehow a fight broke out. The light was so dim, and they were all wearing almost identical clothes, that they couldn't even tell friend from foe.

Why did you hit me? I almost caught it!

"Damn it, I must have misread it!"

The black cat stood on the railing, watching these foolish humans. It wondered how to end this game. Should it send them into the sea to feed the fish?

Just then, the high-powered lights in the corridor suddenly turned on!

It captured this place clearly in an instant!

Several people instinctively turned around and jumped into the sea, not lingering for even a second longer!

After only a slight splash on the sea surface, no trace was left.

The cat slowly kicked the door open with her foot, leaned against it, and stood in the dark corner of the bedroom without the lights on. She didn't know how long she had been watching.

The black cat gracefully jumped down and put down the little turtle it was carrying in its mouth.

Meow~

The black cat meowed very obediently and rubbed against the cat's leg.

It didn't cause any trouble; it even went for a walk with its little turtle. Who knows why these people suddenly came to catch it?

The cat picked up the black cat from the ground; the seawater on its fur hadn't completely dried yet.

"Meow!" Even while hanging in the air, the black cat still tried its best to look pitiful. It really didn't have a new pet that was abusing the cat. It wanted to use its eyes to convince the cat!

But the cat said, "You're very popular now. There were four groups of people just now. There are only ships from five countries here. They were all here to steal you."

Meow~

The black cat was somewhat puzzled by this sound. Had its status in the eyes of humans suddenly skyrocketed? Why were they all trying to take it away?

No matter what it did, the black cat still bared its teeth at the cat, as if in a smile. Its stance was firm: it looked down on them.

Cat put the black cat down, not worried at all about it being stolen. What she found interesting was how the people on the other ships were so unscrupulous in their attempts to get inside the ancient shipwreck!

Just then, Bai Jiang suddenly came over. He looked at Maomao and asked, "Sect Leader, is something the matter?"

The cat shook its head, its tone a little regretful, "Someone came, but not to steal cultural relics, but to steal my cat."

Bai frowned and said, "It seems they've all noticed that the black cat is different from others."

Cat specially asked Bai to keep watch tonight, because she suspected that someone might come to inquire about the cultural relics they had salvaged, or even steal them.

However, quite a few people did come, but they were all there to steal cats!

Bai Jiang then asked, "Or perhaps I should go and check out the other ships?"

The cat didn't decide immediately; she thought about it for a moment.

After a while, the cat said, "Reciprocity is the right thing to do... Let's go!"

It was already 3 a.m.

While everyone else is sound asleep.

Cat just changed into some light clothes and didn't wear a diving suit. Since there were no outsiders around, she didn't need to bring so much equipment.

However, just in case, she also threw two oxygen cylinders into the life-saving space.

Walking to a very dark corner, the cat climbed over the railing and jumped into the water.

As she fell into the water, she cast a water-repelling spell, and a transparent membrane appeared around her body, enveloping her like a bubble.

The black cat ran around the deck a few times; it wanted to go too! But the cat didn't give any instructions, so could it go or not?

After only a brief moment of hesitation, the black cat jumped down quickly! It caught up with the cat in no time.

Suddenly, a person appeared at the door of the cat's bedroom.

A hand, gleaming coldly in the night, turned the doorknob and gently kicked it with its foot.
