Chapter 83 Let's escape from prison together now

83.

This uncle... he stared at Oda Sakunosuke for a while, then wagged his tail happily. He's quite sensible.

"Xiaozhu, why were you arrested?"

You want to find a place to sit and chat with someone, but when you look up, you find that the detention room is empty and even the potted plant at the door has been put into your backpack.

Oda Sakunosuke had already stood up, silently watching from the corner as you attacked the detention room like a cat tornado, clearing out all the decorations with one click.

"Sorry, Xiaozhu, I asked you to stand up." You took out a small stool for the goal formation from your bag without any guilt, and enthusiastically handed it to Oda Sakunosuke, "Come on, Xiaozhu, talk to the cat, how did you get in?"

Before Oda Sakunosuke took the bench, he stared quietly at the base of your tail for a while, his blue eyes filled with great confusion - why could you take something out from under your tail - but he didn't ask anything and politely thanked you.

As you look forward to hearing his story, he thinks for a moment and slowly tells you his past: "I used to be a killer."

Is it so cool? You are in awe. This ordinary sentence has already made you imagine a series of legendary plots. Maybe Xiaozhu looks miserable, but his life experience can be written into a killing creed.

"Later... I read a book, but I didn't see the end of the book." Oda Sakunosuke raised his head and looked at you without any emotion in his eyes, "...Finally, I was brought here."

"ah?"

This... that's it? You just took out the popcorn and haven't even taken a bite yet. Isn't this life story too short?! How can there only be a cause and an effect?

Although one can guess that it was because the ending of the book was not about being a killer - maybe you saw it or maybe you didn't, anyway, the assistant changed his job - in the end he accidentally committed a crime and was arrested again.

But the people in the police station didn't know that they had arrested a heartless killer. On the night when Xiaozhu was imprisoned, the police station was flooded with blood and miserable wails echoed all night long...

You automatically made up a whole story in your mind and embellished it. In the end, you decided to call this story "The Cold-Hearted Killer King Can't Be Provoked."

Although the fan fiction story is good, the original life is more of a concern for Nekoman. So you kept asking, "Is that all? What's the reason why Xiaozhu didn't become a killer? And why was he arrested? You still haven't told me!"

You said bitterly, "If you were to write a novel, you wouldn't be able to get it approved if it turned out like this."

"Ah..." Oda Sakunosuke blinked slowly, a hint of smile in his eyes, "I thought you knew."

"Why?"

"Because you are the cat god," he answered slowly, "Aren't all gods omniscient and omnipotent?"

Oh my god, your name, Mimi Boy, has spread from the leveling battlefield to the seaside city of Yokohama. Is it known to everyone? Even the reserve inmates in the detention room know your nickname...Isn't it that the frequency of calling you the cat god is a bit too high recently?

Who on earth spread the rumor that Mimi Boy is Mimi God? It's so scary! If you catch the person who spread the rumor, you will definitely hang him on a tree and pour pepper ice cream on him.

However...

"Xiaosuke." You stood up, patted Oda Sakunosuke's shoulder like a cat, and said sadly, "Has anyone ever told you that you are a bit sinister?"

Don't ask, just follow your intuition.

"No." Oda Sakunosuke paused and explained to you, "The only person who communicated with me before was my employer." And his employer only gave him money and target information.

As for the goal, it will only become his money and performance.

"What about me? Don't you think cats are human beings?" You raised your tail and yelled, "Discrimination! This is species discrimination!"

"You are Mimigod."

"… Xiaozhu, you just smiled, didn't you?"

"no."

"You were obviously laughing, and you never stopped!" You screamed in dissatisfaction. This guy must be a black-hearted person. How can an honest person be like this? You want to report this person for his appearance fraud.

“But Xiaozhu.” You tilted your head and twitched your ears, “Do you believe in God?”

“I don’t believe in God, but…”

The red-haired young man paused, as if thinking about what to say next. He looked at you again, his eyes like the sea still calm.

“Your spicy curry rice is delicious.”

He said.

"Can I become your disciple, Catman?"

*

Because of a delicious bowl of hot spicy curry, you gained the first believer in a cat's life - rather than saying that Oda Sakunosuke believes in the "Cat God", it is better to say that he believes in "hot spicy curry".

Oda Sakunosuke, who became your "believer", helped you light up the "employee" section in the system panel. You looked at it and found that this section can view the most basic information of NPCs and assign people to work - such as farming, brewing wine in a brewery, picking eggs and milking milk on a ranch.

You can also define wages. As long as you are a slave enough, you can give the NPC a bottle of impure mineral water as a reward after working for him for eight hours... However, too low a salary may cause the NPC to resign.

It's quite perfect. You stroked your chin and thought, the new dungeon is actually a novice dungeon, which is the expansion DLC of your homeland...

"Hey, Xiaozhu, you are a postman now." You looked up suddenly from your immersion in the new section, wondering, "Why was the postman arrested?"

Speaking of postmen, it seems that the one before… Edogawa or something, Death No. 2 was also a mail deliveryman, right? He was fired for simplifying the mail reading process for others, how tragic.

"Well..." Speaking of the reason, Oda Sakunosuke was also a little depressed, "I ran into the consignee's mistress who came to my house."

"Oh oh......!" It's another exciting battle between the mistress and the original wife. The winner is still decided by the rich but x-boy man, right? Poor Xiaozhu was arrested for this kind of thing.

"…The original wife and the mistress teamed up to kill the consignee, but I stopped them." Oda Sakunosuke's tone sounded a little aggrieved, "I just wanted them to receive the goods, but after they killed the consignee, they called the police."

Hiss, such a familiar plot. Why do I feel like you’ve watched this episode before?

"Didn't the police investigate?" You felt for Oda Sakunosuke. "How rude! He was just an ordinary postman passing by. Why did they arrest him?"

"Ah, this..." Oda Sakunosuke replied calmly, "Because I didn't get paid, and the curry rice in this police station is delicious."

"It would be nice if they could provide chili powder." He sighed, seeming a little regretful, "Spicy curry is delicious too..."

Xiaozhu is really a believer of the "Spicy Curry Cult", right? !

Sitting in the detention room, you feel a little bored, so you start asking Oda Sakunosuke to tell you stories from the past. However, what he tells is always different from the story you imagined in your mind: "The life of a cold-blooded killer, accompanied by confusion and blood, but he never fails."

Rather than talking about his previous work, Oda Sakunosuke prefers to talk about the flowers he saw blooming again, the brother and sister he met on Leibo Street sharing a candy, the old man selling ice cream secretly giving a penniless child a strawberry ice cream...such trivial and heartwarming things.

He said he read a novel whose protagonist was a killer, but unfortunately he never got to read the second volume. Later, he met the author, who gave him the book with the ending torn out.

“…I thought, if I can write about the protagonist’s ending, maybe I can also know my ending.” Oda Sakunosuke looked at his hands, “I don’t know if a person covered in blood can have a good ending…but I still want to try to write it.”

“So, I gave up killing people.”

"So you want to write your own ending and retire as a novelist?" You summed it up, feeling very sad. "Awei, no, Xiaozhu, you must have been deceived by the author! This person tore off the ending and didn't show it to you, so it must be a bad ending!"

An author who has written a perfect work would be eager to show it off to the whole world, right?

"Is that so?" Oda Sakunosuke looked at you blankly, "Mr. Natsume... did you tear off the ending because it was a bad ending?"

"It's much better to let readers work hard to write the ending of the book than to say, haha, the ending of Private Marseille is terrible, don't read it, right?" You said faintly, "Xiaozhu, you won't be the author of a terrible ending, right?"

When it comes to writing, you become alert again: "Xiaozhu, tell me honestly, how much of your novel have you written so far?"

The young man who always kept a blank expression on his face felt guilty for a rare moment. He looked away silently and tried to defend himself: "...I am accumulating materials and inspiration. As for writing, I am...not yet able to do it."

"That won't work." You start shaking your head, then suddenly clap your hands, and teach Oda Sakunosuke the art of writing, "How do you know if you can do it if you don't write? Xiaozhu, set a small goal first, and write 10,000 words a day. When you write 100,000 or 1 million words, you will definitely be very good."

"Don't worry. In order to protect Xiaozhu's dream of becoming a writer, I, Mimi Boy, will always monitor you." You made a special mark for Oda Sakunosuke on the system panel, pointed at your eyes, and then pointed at Oda Sakunosuke, "Cat Man is always watching you——"

Oda Sakunosuke opened his mouth and seemed to want to say something, but unfortunately, as he seldom communicated with others, he couldn't find any words to refute you for a while. In the end, he had to shut his mouth and curled up on the bench in grievance.

At this time, the green nightingale landed outside the window.

"Master." Uguimaru jumped twice on the windowsill and tilted his head towards you, "Are we still going to Yokohama today?"

"Swim, keep swimming." You took out the summons and said righteously, "The evil police actually slandered our assistant. Justice may be late, but it will never be absent."

You turned your head and gave the confused Oda Sakunosuke your signature cat-man smile: "Don't worry, leave everything to the cat-man, he will definitely screw it up for you!"

"Summon, Ruby Beast!"

If a player comes to prison but doesn't try to escape, it's like a fish without a bicycle or a bird without a router. In short, it's a completely failed cat life!

The moment you blew open the holding cell wall, the entire police station shook violently.

You listen to the chaotic sounds outside the detention room, and lament that the buildings in the new dungeon can be destroyed. You thought that players' attacks would only cause 0 damage to the buildings. At the same time, you invite Oda Sakunosuke, who seems to be in a distracted state, to jailbreak together.

"Come on, assistant." You extended your hand to him, saying enthusiastically, "Come and escape from prison with your cat man."

Seeing that Oda Sakunosuke was unmoved, you changed your posture again, raising your chin at a 45-degree angle: "The cat just took some medicine, do you know what it is, Xiaozhu?"

Oda Sakunosuke shakes his head

"You are very important to Catman."

Why haven't you responded yet? Did Xiaozhu not hear me? Damn it, you are a cat man, say it again... Strange, are you asleep?

Seeing that Oda Sakunosuke has not responded, you are getting anxious - if you don't run away, you will be caught by the NPC chasing you, and this jailbreak will definitely be considered a failure, right? How can you do that!

You walked straight up to Oda Sakunosuke, and in the latter's increasingly confused eyes, you lifted him up with both hands, and then ran out at full speed.

"Catman can't wait, let's escape from prison together now."
