At night, Jin Chu took his two big bags and left the scrap collection station. He found a remote place, dug a hole, buried the two big bags of things in it, filled it with soil, and buried a seed. He then provided energy to allow the seed to take root and sprout. The thin roots surrounded the two big bags layer by layer and also wrapped the surrounding soil.
Don't be fooled by the thin roots, they are very hard and solid. Unless you dig hard, you can't dig it open. You will just think there is a big rock underneath.
After burying his treasure, Jinchu clapped his hands and looked at the fat cat at his feet: "Little meow, thank you for your hard work tonight!" After that, he turned into a tiny plant with long leaves, just like ordinary grass, wrapped around the cat's neck, covered by soft fur, and could not be seen unless you looked carefully.
"Meow." The half-grown fat cat with shiny orange and white fur twisted its body and ran briskly to the corner of the wall not far away. It jumped onto the wall, scratched with its four claws, and jumped onto the roof in a few seconds. It ran on the roof like chasing the wind. Even if someone saw it, they would just think it was a wild cat.
Jinchu came out at night to gain a deeper understanding of the human world and to find a market for his treasures.
However, after running for most of the night, it seemed that I didn't gain anything except eating a mouthful of wind and seeing countless night scenes that were not very beautiful.
Jin Chu sat on the roof of an abandoned building, sighing. He had thought it was a place full of opportunities, but in the end he had nowhere to start. He couldn't just sell things to anyone he met. "I have a lot of good stuff, do you want it?"
The only consolation is that the planet has good sunlight and moonlight. Although the air is not very good, it is a small problem when you can finally have a full meal.
He stretched out many branches, hung them on the dilapidated building, and spread the leaves towards the moon in the sky. Suddenly, he saw three figures walking stealthily in the distance.
"Brother, do you think it's okay for us to cheat like this?"
"We have to do it anyway. What they want is a psychotropic drug. How can we get that?"
"This isn't bad either, an alcohol purifier. Honestly, being drunk and crazy is pretty much like going berserk."
"That's right. As long as we can get the money, it's fine. If the buyer finds out it's fake, can they come after us?"
"By then we will have already escaped, hahaha!"
"The shadow is gone, hahaha!"
"No shadow, hahaha!"
“…”
"Are we there yet? Third brother, are you taking the wrong path?"
"No, that place is quite remote."
"Hey, why are you supposed to make some adjustments? Why are you changing the venue every few days? Isn't this annoying?"
"Really?"
The wind blew the fragmented conversation into Jinchu's ears, making him feel awkward. So, were these three humans out to deceive people? His curiosity was piqued. "Little Meow Meow, let's follow them and see." He turned into a blade of grass, wrapped it around Little Meow Meow's neck, and followed.
This time they followed the cat to an underground trading center. It was originally an underground shopping mall, but it was abandoned and turned into a black market after being cleaned up. Jin Chu was hanging on the cat's neck, with limited vision, and he stretched out his little roots and leaves to look upwards.
There are so many things for sale here, there are many sellers and even more buyers.
"Is this a white bear cub?"
"Yes, it's a first-class protected animal in the Empire. This is the one we got."
"Do you have the new XXX gun?"
"Yes, come inside."
"This is the latest arrival, I guarantee you'll be blown away!"
"Can I try it?"
Everyone was busy, so few noticed a half-grown orange cat walking silently and looking around. Some people saw it and kicked it: "Where did this wild cat come from? Get out of here!"
The orange cat jumped to the side nimbly, looked up at the person, and raised the slender leaves on its neck, "looking" at the person. Very good, it remembered your face.
Keep moving forward.
The three guys who were trying to scam people were just around the corner, dancing and excitedly recommending the "Psychic Madness Squeeze" to people.
"You just give them a stab, no need to push, and the liquid will go right in. Three minutes later, the person will jump up..."
The buyer probably didn't know whether he was in a hurry or was frightened by the three strong men jumping up and down, so he bought several in one go and left in a hurry.
A cat, a grass, no, a flower, looked seriously at the three people with their backs turned and grinning as they counted money.
"Little Flower, do you think I can come here and sell things? The humans seem a bit silly... The business is done quickly, and they pay cash."
"Meow." The little cat said it couldn't give any advice.
"This is really a genuine optical computer! All personal information has been deleted." An urgent voice that sounded familiar rang out. Jin Chu turned the leaves and saw that it was an acquaintance. Wasn't it the bearded man who tried to rob him during the day but was instead robbed of a car by him?
The bearded man, with a gloomy expression and wearing old clothes that looked who knows how many years old, was holding a golden bracelet-shaped optical computer to sell to people: "It's an upgraded version, capable of accessing the virtual interstellar network. Look at the gold casing. It looks so stylish on your wrist. I tell you, illegal immigrants love this the most. I'm selling it to you at a low price because I think you look good..."
Before he could finish his words, the two people he had stopped from selling jumped up and started punching and kicking him.
"You are the illegal resident!"
"I am an illegal resident myself, and yet I say others are illegal resident too!"
The bearded guy was so big that he was knocked down in a few moves and was kicked many times before he was let go. The rich man's golden head was also robbed, but of course he didn't get anything back and lay on the ground crying.
Jinchu: "...Humans are also quite cruel. There are risks in doing business."
The orange cat tilted its head and meowed in agreement.
At this moment, Jin Chu suddenly felt something, and suddenly stood up a slender leaf on the cat's neck, looking towards the entrance of the underground mall.
A group of people dressed in black combat uniforms and holding weapons rushed in: "Seventh Army Mobile Force, don't move!"
The people who were doing business enthusiastically inside were stunned. They picked up their goods and money and fled. Some people even took up weapons to resist. Suddenly, chaos broke out everywhere.
Someone shouted in the chaos: "Army! They say they are an army!"
Over the past two years, the Empire has been rectifying the planet of Belfield, with cracking down on illegal trade being a major priority. However, they've only deployed the local police and, at most, the local garrison. Now, a full-fledged army is coming! Has the Empire gone mad? This is just a small trading point!
But no matter what, this cry really made many people wake up and give up fleeing and resisting. In the eyes of many people, the group army is a very remarkable and powerful existence, which is completely different from those miscellaneous legions.
At the same time, in just a moment, the armies took control of the situation.
Those who wanted to resist were knocked down, and those who gave up resisting squatted on the spot and trembled.
Then the people blocking the entrance parted, and a tall and straight man slowly walked in.
This man was also wearing a black combat uniform, but the same clothes looked particularly oppressive on him. His sharp eyes swept across the entire audience, and the dim light seemed to brighten when it shone on that fair and handsome face.
His eyes suddenly fell on the front of him. A few dozen meters away, standing against the wall was a medium-sized cat. Its orange and white fur reminded him of another cat, but that cat was much larger and its fur was not as dark.
But why did he feel familiar? No, it wasn't because of the cat, but because of something around the cat's neck.
Jinchu immediately retracted his leaves, becoming thinner and smaller and hiding himself in the cat's fur.
Meet, meet, meet!
Look, look, I see you!!
Is it too fast?
I'm not ready yet!
No, I haven’t gotten rich yet!
He was so powerful at first. He could drive people away at will and confidently lead the planet towards a better future. However, he ended up destroying the planet to the point of being half dead. Now he has come to the human world in shame. All he got from the whole process was a hover car frame and 20 credit coins.
Wow, I feel a little embarrassed.
Ye Ruisheng still had important matters to attend to, so he suppressed his uneasiness and averted his gaze. He walked slowly across the dusty and garbage-covered ground, making a slight noise, and spoke nonchalantly, "Rajerk, the leader of the third-ranked star pirate group on the Empire's most wanted list, has fallen into this predicament and still refuses to show himself?"
None of the people who fell to the ground and fainted moved.
The atmosphere was suffocating.
Ye Ruisheng walked back and forth in the small underground mall. When he passed by the cat, he took another look. There was a thin string around the cat's neck?
Then, as he was walking back, he suddenly reached out from among the squatting people.
A tall and strong man immediately jumped up, holding a weapon in his hand, and rushed towards Ye Ruisheng.
Several screams broke out all around, and the three scammers on Jinchu's side screamed the loudest.
But before they could finish shouting, the two men over there were finished. The tall and strong man was knocked to the ground by Ye Ruisheng with a quick and heavy chokehold. The other men rushed up and captured him tightly.
Jin Chu quietly poked out the tip of the leaf and was stunned. When did this guy become so powerful?
One of his subordinates asked Ye Ruisheng, "What should we do with these people?"
Ye Ruisheng took a look at the scene and said, "This is illegal trading. Should we arrest them all and hand them over to the relevant authorities?"
He was about to walk towards the cat when suddenly a loud cry erupted from the corner. Then a bearded man rushed out and grabbed Ye Ruisheng's thigh. "Sir, I'm innocent! I just came here to sell a laptop, and today I encountered a robber passenger. Not only did he knock me out, he also stole my car, stripped me naked, took all the valuables from me, and beat me up like this!"
Ye Ruisheng certainly wouldn't let this man touch even a single piece of his clothing. The man fell to the ground, but nothing was done. Without even crying out in pain, he stood up and tore off his shirt, revealing a bruised chest. He burst into tears and said, "I don't have money to go to the hospital, so I had to sell my laptop. This is my first time in a place like this. I'm innocent!"
Ye Ruisheng: ...
Jinchu: ...
Jinchu was furious. "Nonsense! Who stripped you naked? Who took anything from you? This is a blatant slander!"
