Chapter 96 What kind of gem beasts there are
96.
It seems that the guest who wanted to be gay with you did not actually do so. Instead, after admitting defeat, he said goodbye to you politely and said he would visit you again next time.
Watching the NPC in white leave gracefully, you hold down the two little rats who want to rush over to open their eyes, while collecting the rewards for the side quest - the rewards are pitifully small, but even a little is still meat, so take it easy.
Isn't there a next time?
For some reason, there were no customers the entire day, and business was so bad that you started playing Landlord with two mice.
In the afternoon, you let Rimbaud, who was forced to wear a new dress and had a look of death on her face, continue to watch the store, and then you turned around and rode your bird to the mysterious store that appeared from time to time.
The beautiful store manager is still very beautiful. You glanced at Ichihara Yuuko's new outfit, slid over to her, and smoothly took the Azema Rose to your mouth: "The new clothes are also beautiful...!"
"Beautiful sister, do you know? I just played rock-paper-scissors with the mouse in the store, but the cat man only played scissors, because beautiful sister, you are my fist-paper."
You flicked your tail, took out the flawless ring from your backpack, and said affectionately, "...So are you willing to marry the cat man so that he can be teleported to the store anytime, anywhere?"
The secret shop is pretty good, but the shop refresh location is not fixed, and it takes a long time to search for it in the sky even when riding a Mirai hat.
It is still faster to be together with the beautiful sister* and use the ring to teleport. In addition, the system will give the cat man new clothes and a new wife - a white chocobo that can be ridden by two people.
Ichihara Yuko calmly took the flawless ring you handed over, threw it to Mokona, and shouted towards the kitchen: "April 1st, the customer has already paid, remember to cook an extra fish--"
"Grilled fish! Grilled fish!" Mokona bounced back and forth on the chair, "Good wine! Good wine!"
"Ah? I'm rejected, meow... Then can the cat man place a small teleportation crystal in the yard?"
Cat Man has no bad intentions. He just wants to find a bug and teleport to the store to play at an unlimited time to save himself some trouble.
"April 1st - remember to add chili to the guest's portion of fish."
"Hey - no need for spicy food! I want to eat two fish, meow!"
"I say——" April 1st Junxun, holding a spatula, angrily opened the partition door: "What are your requests that cannot be said all at once? Ahhh, really, why am I doing these things..."
You glanced at April 1st, then walked over to Ichihara Yuuko and said loudly, "Beautiful sister, this wage earner has a bad temper, unlike the cat man. The cat man will never lose his temper with you, so you should marry the cat man..."
Ichihara Yuuko stuffed a snack into your mouth and looked at April 1st with a smile: "Oh, April 1st, didn't you hear that the guests are hungry? If you don't go back, the fish in the pot will be burnt."
April 1st was looking around and complained a few times, but when he really smelled a burnt smell, he lost all thoughts and ran back to the kitchen in a panic, waving a spatula: "Xiao Duo and Xiao Quan, why didn't you call me? My fish, ah ah ah——"
…
The burnt grilled fish is also delicious.
You wiped your mouth and said sincerely, "Thank you for the treat. Thank you for the gift from nature."
April 1st, who was cleaning up the dishes, glanced at you and whispered, "Isn't it me who cooked?" Why is it nature that you are thanking? !
"Worker, you don't understand." You said with a serious expression, "Cats have their own ideas and plans... Everything is in the cat's rhythm, just don't bother asking."
Slowly getting used to your words, April 1st picked up the stacked bowls, sighed, and replied perfunctorily: "Hey, I don't understand, I don't understand."
"You don't understand this?" You looked at Ichihara Yuuko again, "Beautiful sister, your part-time worker is an idiot."
Xiaoduo nodded and agreed with you: "Stupid, April 1st is stupid."
Xiaoquan smiled and squeezed next to Xiaoduo: "April 1st, stupid."
April 1st, who was angry and embarrassed, said: "Hey!"
After eating and drinking, Yuuko Ichihara was replacing the tobacco in her cigarette. She lowered her eyes, fiddling with the cigarette in her hand, and said nonchalantly: "Sir, we already have a clue to what you are looking for."
"Eh? What am I looking for?"
Oops, have you forgotten something again? Quickly use your cat man's brain to think about it... Oh! You suddenly realize that it is the main plot!
"Any clues?"
After so long, we finally have some clues. It was not easy... Which genius planned and designed this decryption part?
"This thing will appear at the right time..." Ichihara Yuko looked at you, slowly exhaled smoke, and said meaningfully: "Guest, every choice you make has meaning."
"There is no such thing as accidental happening in this world, only inevitability."
You weren't listening at all, but the only thing in your mind was: It's over, the Whisperer's wind finally blew onto the beautiful NPC.
No, I don't want to leave you alone as a cat in this world full of mystery tellers - return the removed ESC key to the cat man!
You have to skip all the dialogues that you don't understand. As long as you haven't heard them, it doesn't count as Cat Man not understanding them.

Regardless of whether you understand the clues or not, what you need to do now is to complete the daily tasks to level up.
You were originally worried that you wouldn't be able to defeat a level 50 murloc without the Knife Master, but then you realized that you were already level 70, which is not the maximum level yet, but -
Chocolate Catman can summon the Dragon God Bahamut to spray them!
You looked at the tentacled fishmen and smiled crookedly: "Come out, little Pokémon!"
"My turn - Dragon God Summoning! Death Reincarnation! Star-level nuclear explosion! Vacuum wave! Vacuum wave! Vacuum wave again!*"
The plush Pokémon that just recently could only follow you around while wagging its tail now tilts its head towards the red-named monsters and imitates your expression with a crooked smile: "Meow!"
The next second, a giant dragon that was tens of meters tall and emitting blue fluorescence replaced the Gem Beast.
"roar--"
As the dragon roared, blinding beams of light descended from the sky, and the fishmen, bathed in the cycle of death, screamed in unison.
"Wow." You've maximized the size of the summoned beast. Wearing sunglasses and earplugs, you can't help but whistle as you look at the cool scene of the summoned beast. "Cool."
Under the attack of the summoned beast, the red-named monsters slowly dissolved into a pool of foul-smelling slime. The Gem Beast, which had recovered, walked proudly to the Murloc, who had not yet completely dissolved, and said arrogantly: "Meow!"
After doing all this, the Pokémon turned around again, swayed and ran to you, looked up at you and said cutely: "Meow~"
Seeing this, you said: "What a satisfying Pokémon revenge."

A few days later, at Lupin Bar.
"Alas..." Dazai Osamu leaned on the table, sighed deeply, and complained to Oda Sakunosuke, "Oda Sakunosuke - Dr. Mori has thrown another difficult task to me -"
"That's really hard work, Dazai." Oda Sakunosuke took a sip of wine, "The leader also gave me a new mission."
At this point, he was a little depressed: "I'm going to investigate the reason why GSS was attacked."
Oda Sakunosuke looked at you who were trying to make a drink with your limbs tamed, and a little expectation appeared in his eyes: "Cat man... do you know?"
"Ah? Me?" You stopped attacking the shaker, with a look of pure stupidity in your eyes, "I'm just a cat man, I don't understand what GSS is."
"Is that so?" Oda Sakunosuke turned to look at Dazai Osamu, "Then, what is Dazai's mission?"
"Didn't a mysterious psychic appear these days?" Dazai Osamu was a little unhappy when talking about this. He pretended to vomit. "Last time it was Aragami, this time it's Ryujin. Eh... the slug content won't increase, right?"
"Dr. Mori wants to bring people into Hong Kong // Hei... well, a middle-aged uncle's unrealistic fantasy."
While you weren't paying attention, Dazai Osamu pushed the milk cup away, quietly moved the drink you had just mixed in front of him, then raised the cup and took a sip under Oda Sakunosuke's increasingly horrified gaze.
"Odasaku, I seemed to see an old lady calling me to cross the bridge..." Dazai Osamu fell to the ground with a peaceful smile, "Is this what death feels like..."
The next second, Dazai Osamu, who had happily embraced death, jumped up from the ground and began to rub his arms, shaking like a cat with paper stuck to its paws: "Wow! I met a guy with horns on his head and a fierce face, and he beat me back with a mace..."
"Dazai." Oda Sakunosuke patted Dazai Osamu's shoulder and interrupted him. His expression was solemn. "If you are too tired, you should have a good rest."
"The man with horns in hell?" You poked your head out, "That's the first assistant officer of hell. By the way..." Your expression became serious, "He's a super scary sadist."
“Is that so?” Oda Sakunosuke showed a look of enlightenment, “I didn’t know about these things.”
"…It's obvious that they are lying, right? Mr. Oda, at this moment, you should use a hammer to hit them hard on the back of their heads!"
Sakaguchi Ango, who had just finished overtime, walked over from the entrance. He pushed up his glasses and said sternly to Oda Sakunosuke, "It's because of your attitude, Mr. Oda, that the two of them have been so reckless!"
“Hey——Ango, what you said is so hurtful. Sob, sob.”
"That's right, Tucao-kun hurt the cat, you have to pay me!"
Sakaguchi Ango showed a forbearing expression.
"Ango, are you done with your work?" Oda Sakunosuke knew a little about the other party's job content, "Were the people who were attacked yesterday also done by the Dragon God?"
"Thanks to the new psychic..." Sakaguchi Ango pulled open the chair next to Oda Sakunosuke and sat down, "I can't finish my work. I haven't slept for three days..."
The spy who has dark circles under his eyes darker than his skin because of working two jobs sneered: "Haha, it doesn't matter. As long as you don't get off work, there is no concept of going to work..."
"Ango made such a terrifying declaration..." Dazai Osamu hid behind Oda Sakunosuke, "Such a strong resentment."
"Is there?" You put the tomato juice in front of Sakaguchi Ango, scratching your head, confused, "Is it strange to not sleep for three days?"
Let's not talk about you, the blade of Honmaru can also work for several days without rest... So the NPC in this dungeon can't work without sleep for several days? What about your factory? If the NPC can't be 007, doesn't it mean that you will earn less money?
You feel a little creepy when you see three people become quiet at the same time and stare at you without saying anything.
“Why are you looking at the cat man like that…” You crossed your arms, “Let me make it clear, I sell wine, not cats.”
"...Cat God." Sakaguchi Ango's tone suddenly became serious, "I believe in your words..."
"Cat's words?"
"Can I not sleep?"
For a moment, I didn’t know whether to call this request humble or pitiful. I also didn’t know whether Tucaojun liked his job or hated it…
But your future factory will need this kind of talent!
You quickly ordered a few bottles of Mian Mian Po from the system mall, and then, with a sympathetic and kind look, you stuffed the bottles into Sakaguchi Ango's hands: "Cat Man supports you with Mian Mian Po."
"Remember to give the cat man five stars, Aligardo."
