◇ Chapter 73 Taking a Bath
Imur stepped over the doctor's pants, leaving a black footprint.
The doctor picked him up by the scruff of the neck.
Bai Yu patted his pants: "It's really a bit dirty."
He let Tuanzi out of the bedroom and went into the kitchen to cook the beef. Tiger Skin and Hawksbill Turtle were peeking out of the door, hesitating whether to come in.
Platinum Tuanzi unceremoniously occupied the kitchen door and glared at the two new kittens: "Meow!"
——This is my home! The doctor is cutting the meat I want to eat!
Tiger-skin hawksbill turtle: “…”
The tiny little kitten posed no threat at all. The brother and sister glanced at him sideways, walked around him, and then with a step of their long legs, they easily jumped onto the operating table, perched beside the doctor, and glanced lazily at the platinum kitten.
Imur: “…”
He was the first to arrive, but he has no status in the family at all!
He gathered his strength and lunged back,
My legs were too short and I couldn’t jump up.
Pounce again—
Haven't jumped on yet.
Bai Yu rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
It was hard to ignore the clanging sounds behind him. He turned around, grabbed Tuanzi's abdomen with one hand and lifted him up. Imur's four paws had nowhere to put their weight on, and they swayed helplessly in the air before being gently placed next to the operating table.
He leaned over to the doctor's hand and sniffed the plate.
Bai Yu had already prepared the ingredients and pushed the plate to Yimuer: "You must be hungry after wandering outside. Come eat."
Imur stuck out his tongue and licked it gently.
In cat form, his sense of taste is slightly different from that of humans. Raw meat and bones taste bland and bloody to humans, but just right for a kitten's taste buds. The food on the plate was delicious, but Imur couldn't eat it.
He had just had dinner at the Grand Duke's Palace, and was served by a doctor.
Ever since he was injured, Imur has had a poor appetite and ate with difficulty. It was only today when the doctor was beside him and looked so delicious that he took a few more bites of the food.
So Tuanzi ate a few bites and then stopped moving.
Bai Yu was slightly surprised and touched the kitten's belly. Imur cooperated and burped.
I’m full.
Bai Yu raised his eyebrows: "It seems that you are living a comfortable life wandering around outside?"
Imur tilted his head and pretended to be stupid.
Bai Yu then took the basin away from him and placed it next to the salivating tiger-skin hawksbill turtle brother and sister: "Come, eat it."
Imur: “!”
He bit the doctor's sleeve.
No! How can I give it to another cat?
Bai Yu sighed: "You have to give way to your brothers and sisters, they are still young."
Imur refused to let go and even held on tighter, starting to grit his teeth angrily against Bai Yu's sleeve.
You little devil, your legs are so long and you’re still so small!
At this time, Budgie and Hawksbill also came over. They usually didn't like to eat beef, and they hadn't finished the fish and chicken that Bai Yu cut for them. But now they insisted on squeezing in here, crushing the hair on Platinum Tuanzi's head.
For a moment, the three kittens huddled together, pushing and shoving each other like loaches, rushing left and right, and Bai Yu couldn't catch them.
Veins on his head were visible, and he finally reached out and grabbed the tiger-skinned tortoises, one in each hand, and carried them out of the kitchen along with their food bowls. He said in a cold voice, "Okay, brother just came back, you guys should give way to him, and dad will make you delicious food tomorrow."
Imur wagged his tail, and arrogantly perched beside the food bowl, watching coldly and showing a proud look to the two kittens.
Look, even though you are here, Bai Yu’s favorite kitten...wait——
Imur reacted belatedly and looked up at the doctor in disbelief.
What did the doctor just call himself?
……dad?
dad? ! ? !
Bai Yu claimed to be the father of Hawksbill Tiger, and said that Yimuer was the brother of Hawksbill Tiger, so...
Imur: “!!!”
The kitten's feet slipped, and it rolled off the operating table, belly down, and hit the rice jar with a thud.
The height was not high, but Imur still felt dizzy. He slapped his head with his claws, and it was like a bolt of lightning, with his brain feeling like a scorched earth.
...What the hell?
Modern people who keep cats and dogs all call themselves the parents of their pets. Due to his profession, Bai Yu has added many people who keep pets on WeChat, and the remarks are often XX dad and XX mom, such as "Lucky dad" and "Wangcai mom". He now raises three kittens by himself, and he feels that there is nothing wrong with calling himself "kitten dad".
Imur: “…”
When Bai Yu tried to reach out and hug him, the Duke stretched out his claws and slapped the doctor on the back of his hand.
The claws were hidden in the pads and not extended, but the force was quite strong, which was the maximum force the Duke could use.
Damn it, he actually took advantage of him!
He is just a male servant, and he doesn't know his own identity!
Imur glanced at the doctor, jumped down from the rice jar with cat steps, ran to the door, and tried to push the kitchen door.
The stimulation was too great and Imur didn't want to pay attention to the doctor anymore. He wanted to find a quiet place.
But before she could push him away, the doctor lifted her up again by her butt.
Bai Yu sighed: "Stop running around and take a shower first."
Imur slapped the back of his hand angrily again.
Damn it, don’t touch me until you figure out my name!
Although the kitten used all its strength, it was just a light slap to Bai Yu, and it couldn't even penetrate the doctor's defense. He carried the kitten to the bathroom, put it in the bathtub, took off the shower head and adjusted the temperature: "Okay, take a bath first."
The Duke takes a bath every day, and if he hadn’t gone to the roof to see Bai Yu, his fur wouldn’t have gotten dirty.
As the Grand Duke of Illia, it would be too strange to be forced to take a bath.
Ymur struggled violently.
Although he was small, he was very powerful when he fluttered. Bai Yu failed to catch him. The doctor looked at Tuanzi who jumped out of the bathtub and asked in surprise, "You don't want to wash?"
He said meaningfully: "...But it's dirty and a little ugly."
"?"
Imur turned his head and looked at the mirror.
"!"
Its fur was wet and stuck to its body limply, and its tail and belly were covered in dust, making them look grey.
It's indeed a bit ugly.
So Bai Yu successfully brought Yandada's kitten back home.
The sink in his house was not big enough, and the original owner had no idea what he had washed in the sink. The bottom of the basin was covered with rust, so Bai Yu simply used the bathtub.
The height of the bathtub was still too high for the kitten. Tuanzi clung to the edge of the bathtub and stared at Bai Yu, as if he was a little scared.
Bai Yu held him up with his hand, scratched his little head, adjusted the water temperature and flow rate, and poured it gently over him. During this time, he pushed aside the hair on his abdomen to look at the wound.
Imur: “Meow.”
He rubbed the bathtub and kicked his legs uncomfortably.
It felt strange to have my belly exposed and be stared at.
Bai Yu: "Don't move."
The doctor carefully examined the wound and found that it had healed, leaving only a shallow mark. The uneven scar was on the lower abdomen, and was completely covered by the hair.
Ymur trembled slightly and also looked down.
So ugly.
When he turned into a human, he also had a scar like this on his abdomen. The newly formed scar was still light pink, and it would tremble sensitively when touched lightly. Now the doctor was groping along the wound to check the healing process. The warm fingertips traced the scar bit by bit, going lower and lower...
“…”
Imur lost his balance and fell directly into the bathtub. The water was not deep at that time. He choked twice and stood up.
Bai Yu was stunned and said with a smile: "Can this also be wrestled?"
He stretched out his hand, trying to hold Tuanzi, but he couldn't use any strength hanging on the edge of the bathtub. Bai Yu pondered for a moment, then simply took a step forward and entered the bathtub.
Imur: “!”
The doctor sat cross-legged in the bathtub, and he was placed on the doctor's lap.
When he was injured, the Duke often slept on the doctor's thighs. The muscle there felt full and elastic. He stood there stupidly, not daring to move.
The doctor was still wearing his footman's lining, which was now soaking wet.
The pure white cloth was soaked with water and stuck to his body. Imur looked up and could even faintly see a hint of red through the cloth.
The kitten lowered its head in panic.
Imur had never known that the male servants' clothing in the Duke's Mansion could be so tempting. At this moment, he seemed to have learned a certain Eastern idiom without any guidance: "Do not look at what is not proper."
Bai Yu washed very gently, perhaps thinking of the kitten's previous experience, he rubbed Tuanzi's head from time to time to comfort him. After finishing the washing, he carried Imur out and wrapped him in a towel.
The doctor wiped it carefully with a blanket, then turned the hair dryer to the lowest setting, covered Tuanzi's ears, gently blew the fur clean, and put Tuanzi on the ground.
Very patient and meticulous.
Bai Yu was also soaked, so he took a shower. Yimuer then walked around the clinic with a cat-like gait. Through the window, he suddenly saw someone at the door.
It was a young man dressed as a postman who delivered the letter to the doctor's mailbox.
The man was dressed in ordinary clothes and looked hurried, just like any other young man in Illia who was barely making ends meet with a tight salary. There was nothing noteworthy about him. Imur took a quick look at him and then looked away.
The doctor came out of the shower.
66 always turned off his phone when his host was taking a shower or sleeping, so he turned it back on. He stopped on the doctor's shoulder and yawned, "Someone sent you a letter."
Bai Yu paused: "Black Robe Society?"
66: "That should be the case. Apart from them, no one else can send you letters."
Bai Yu took out the key and took the letter out of the mailbox. He didn't even think about avoiding the kitten and just sat down at the desk to read.
Imur stepped on the doctor's thigh and jumped onto the table, then tilted his head to look.
He narrowed his eyes slightly.
It was an advertisement, printed crudely, with some fonts of varying sizes. It looked normal, but as Imur looked at it, he inexplicably felt something was wrong.
Although it was an advertisement, the doctor's visit took too long.
Bai Yu held the advertisement paper in his hands, his eyes focused, as if he was reading word by word.
The Black Robe Society used its usual encryption method, with a few special fonts in bold, disguising it as if the printer was leaking ink. 66 quickly scanned it and said, "Host, the Black Robe Society reminds you not to forget the gathering, and has also assigned you a second mission. In addition to investigating the forbidden area, they also want you to mix a powder into the Grand Duke's tea before the Duke summons the ministers in seven days."
Bai Yu: "Powder?"
66: "The letter said that these spices were brought from foreign lands. They still need time to transport them, so they will be sent to you through my wife."
Bai Yu nodded.
According to the novel, he should have died long ago. This is a plot that has never appeared. The novel requires Bai Yu not to reveal his undercover identity on his own initiative, which means that the Black Robe Society wants him to cooperate and he has to act along.
Bai Yu tore the advertisement into irreparable pieces and then rushed into the sewer.
Imur tilted his head: "...Meow?"
It's just ordinary advertising paper, is it necessary to treat it like this?
The Grand Duke frowned slightly, something flashed through his mind, but before he could think clearly, the doctor stood up.
Bai Yu hugged the kitten and said, "I'm going to take a nap, do you want to join me?"
The cat’s brain capacity is a little bit big, and Imur instantly forgot about the advertising paper: "Meow!"
want!
He wrapped his tail tightly around the doctor's arm to show his determination.
Budgie and Hawksbill also wanted to come over, but they hadn't had a bath for a while, so the doctor refused.
Imur was lying on the doctor's shoulder. He was originally shorter than the hawksbill turtle, but now he was much taller. The kitten's tail was proudly raised. He looked at the two meowing on the ground with smugness and meowed reservedly.
Goodbye!
Imur was used to sleeping in the doctor's big bed. He rolled to the center of the bed without any instruction and jumped twice on the doctor's pillow.
Bai Yu half lay down.
He had the habit of reading books and newspapers before going to bed. He took a book and read. His pajamas stuck to his body under the action of gravity, outlining the curve of his waist and abdomen.
Ymur tentatively extended his paw and placed it on the doctor's pectoral muscles.
He tilted his head to see Bai Yu's reaction.
No response.
Imur stepped on it twice. When his muscles were not exerting force, it felt soft. Pushing it felt like pushing a piece of tofu, and there were shallow ripples, which was very comfortable.
The doctor continued reading, ignoring the kitten, and did not turn over or throw it away.
The kitten observed carefully for a moment and raised its tail.
No response, you can step on it!
The author has something to say:
Black Robe Society: Stop feeding the cat. Do you still remember that you are an undercover agent? Hey!
