A cat went around the small flowerbed at the door and nimbly jumped onto the window.
Onoka opened the window as usual, holding a small bag of cat food and bottled water in her hands.
The wild cats in this area are very vigilant and basically appear in groups to forage for food at regular times. During this period, if the cats see people coming, they will stop looking for food and run away. So she often comes earlier to replenish cat food and water at this time.
The windows creaked slightly and the wind blew up the thin curtains.
The dark red cat took advantage of the moment when Onoka opened the window, slipped into the window and fell straight to the ground, its long whiskers trembling twice with the movement.
"Huh? It's a new cat." Onoka was a little surprised.
She had seen most of the stray cats that came here to eat cat food, but the one in front of her was... definitely unfamiliar. Judging from the cleanliness of its fur, it didn't look like a stray cat, but more like a pet that had escaped.
0829, now he should be called Oda Sakunosuke——that is, the big cat in front of Onoka.
It has only been three hours since he turned into a cat. He is almost familiar with this cat's body and can run briskly. However, his sight line is too low, which makes it inconvenient.
In fact, considering Oda Sakunosuke's current appearance, it might be more appropriate to describe him as 'it', but in the final analysis, his essence is still a human being, so the word 'he' is more normal.
Walking on a cat's body is a very novel experience.
Putting aside those chaotic thoughts, Oda Sakunosuke shook his head, took a two-minute break, and slowly stretched his waist.
The cat's habits and personality have some influence on him.
According to the card description, he is now a complete cat - except that he can speak human language occasionally, which is very different from normal cats. Therefore, the aroma of cat food that humans don't think is so delicious wafts into his face with his breath, as if tempting him.
Oda Sakunosuke: “…” Suddenly feeling a little hungry.
But he had no intention of trying the real taste of cat food. Business was more important.
The brief summary of the mission description only mentioned "Armed Detective Agency" and nothing else. It was confusing and I couldn't understand why the world consciousness issued the mission.
The character card of Oda Sakunosuke states that he is a member of the Armed Detective Agency, but the two worlds are not the same.
In the world of Oda Sakunosuke, there are only cats and no humans. It is a paradise for cat lovers and fur lovers. Every day in the news, cats in formal clothes are talking seriously about the news...
The curry in the cat curry shop near the detective agency is also delicious. The owner is a big fat cat. When Oda has nothing to do on weekdays, he will bring the cats at home to sit, chat or eat with the owner.
It seemed to be going too far. Oda's long tail lifted slightly and swayed in the air.
In that world where there are only cats, there are actually different organizations of different sizes.
Oda Sakunosuke belongs to the Armed Detective Agency in Yokohama and is a relatively new member. Before joining the detective agency, Oda was a member of the bottom of the port mafia.
In addition to Oda, there are many other types of cats gathered in the detective agency.
- For example, there is the unique detective cat who often wears a hat, the president who has an aura that easily scares away strange cats, the black cat with a bandage who jumped from Hong Kong Black to the detective agency a few months later than Oda, and the white cat whose cat color and pattern are similar to those of a white tiger, and so on.
His thoughts gradually drifted away, and he unconsciously patted the ground with his front paws, leaving a plum blossom print stained with external mud on the clean floor.
Oda Sakunosuke hesitantly retracted his claws, lowered his head and stared at the claw mark, feeling that he might have gotten into trouble.
The cat food bag was opened a little and several small boxes were quickly filled with food. Onoka was twisting the bottle cap to add water to the bowl when she heard something behind her and turned around to see that it was the big cat that ran into the house, staring at a dirty paw print in front of it.
Onoka didn't understand what was going on for a moment. She held up the water bottle, took a step forward and observed carefully. She intuitively felt that there seemed to be a look of annoyance in the big cat's eyes.
Onoka couldn't help but chuckle, turned back, poured the water slowly, then took two tissues and started wiping from the windowsill where the cat stepped in, all the way to the front of the cat.
Then she moved to a clean area with tissue paper and moistened the corner of the paper with the last bit of water left in the bottle.
Onoka tentatively lifted the big cat's paw, which also had dark red fur. Seeing that there was no resistance, she slowed down her movements and wiped the four paws, whose pads were all tender pink, clean.
After wiping, the big cat meowed softly to her, as if to say thank you. Different from the tender cry of a kitten, it was more low and steady.
Somehow, Onoka always felt that what was in front of her was not a cat, but a person.
She raised her hand and tapped her head to let go of those crazy thoughts. When she looked up again, the big cat had gone away quietly.
In short, let's try to find the Armed Detective Agency in this world first.
After briefly going over the expected steps in his mind, Oda avoided the crowd and found a quiet place.
He jumped onto a bench by the roadside, his tail unconsciously sweeping back and forth behind him. He was not sure if the location of the Armed Detective Agency in his memory was the same as here.
"Boss, you can touch that cat."
Oda shook his ears to detect the source of the sound, he turned his head to look, but due to his cat-like body shape, he had to raise his head to see the person's appearance.
This is a little familiar. This thought popped into Oda Sakunosuke's mind.
The familiar aura made Oda Sakunosuke unconsciously identify this tall man with the cat president in his own world, as if they were exactly the same.
The two of them exchanged a few words in front of Oda, and then the silver-haired man squatted down, took out a small dried fish from his sleeve with a serious expression, and handed it to Oda Sakunosuke.
Oda Sakunosuke: “…” It seems like he wants him to eat it.
He tilted his head to figure out the reason for his action, and ate the dried fish very naturally. At the end, he raised his paw to wipe his face as a simple cleanup.
Under Oda's cat-like gaze, the man slowly stretched out his hand, as if waiting to see if he would run away - and gently rubbed Oda Sakunosuke's furry and pleasantly touched head.
Then another hand suddenly appeared on his head. The owner of the hand gently tapped the half-furled hair on his head, opened his eyes briefly for two seconds, and then closed them again.
The emerald green eyes were also very similar to the Ranpo cat in the detective agency. Oda Sakunosuke thought that since he had not received the facial features of the main characters in this world, he naturally could not recognize that this was the person he was looking for.
It seemed like the two of them just came over to pet the cat, without any childish thoughts of saying hello to the cat, and left together under Oda's gaze.
After thinking for a moment, Oda jumped off the bench with the mentality of rather finding fault than letting it go.
Cats make little noise when they walk, so he didn't really care whether he would lose them or not. He just followed his instinct and followed the two people.
——In fact, I never thought of hiding it, Oda Neko.
"Mr. Ranpo!" Nakajima Atsushi hurried to open the door. The president who went out with Edogawa Ranpo had to come back a few minutes earlier because Ranpo said he wanted to wait for someone downstairs alone and would not let others go downstairs to accompany him.
Nakajima Atsushi looked out the door hesitantly, but saw no one coming up. He was about to ask when Ranbu raised his hand and pointed at a dark red cat outside the door.
Dun: "…………Mr. Ranbu?"
"This is the person Lord Ranpo is waiting for." Edogawa Ranpo sat back in his seat and looked towards the sofa. There was no one lying there to rest as usual.
Nakajima Atsushi's face was filled with confusion.
The big cat naturally walked into the detective agency before he closed the door, met Nakajima Atsushi's puzzled gaze, raised its front legs politely, and gently hooked a tissue that Luanbu casually handed over with its claws, wiping off all the dust on its claws along the way.
That cat actually throws away garbage. Nakajima Atsushi's expression gradually became numb.
The detective took out a bag of snacks from the drawer, and when he met the big cat's eyes, his hands paused for two seconds.
"I know you can speak." said Ranpo Edogawa.
"Mr. Ranbu?" Dun felt a chill on his back and subconsciously thought that there was something unscientific in this room.
——To some extent, this idea is correct.
Then, under Dun's horrified gaze, he thought that the cat, who was at most a little bit human, opened his mouth.
"I'm sorry for the intrusion," the cat said in a low voice.
"Ah, what's wrong with you, Dun?" The black-haired man pushed the door open with a bang, and he was soaking wet, obviously just pulled out of the river. He greeted Dun, who was standing at the door and almost hit by the door, with great energy, but the rest of his words were cut short by the sound from inside the house.
Oda's vision was suddenly blocked by the man squatting down, and water droplets dripped from the hem of his windbreaker into a pool.
"What a cute cat." He sighed, but there was no tenderness in his eyes to match his words, and one hand quickly reached out to touch Oda's head.
Oda did not hide. After following Ranpo to the Armed Detective Agency, he matched these people with the cats in his memory one by one.
As expected, no matter which world you are in, you will often go into the water. Oda felt that this was common sense, which came from the countless experiences of catching cats in his memory. This feeling solidified into a certain emotion before that hand was placed on his head.
Judging from the reactions of other members of the detective agency, it's obvious that this happened more than once or twice.
——Dazai.
A faint blue light flashed under his hand, and "No Longer Human" was successfully activated. Dazai Osamu's eyes were gloomy, he stood up and took a few steps back, staring at the figure that gradually appeared in front of him because of his ineffective ability -
His eyes suddenly widened.
So contact with "No Longer Human" would turn me into a human. Oda sighed inwardly and raised his hands to look at them.
——No wonder there is an explanation about being good at Soukura. Will it be the same if I come into contact with Dazai Neko in the cat world? (No)
Oda was distracted for two seconds in front of everyone, and then he collected those lost thoughts and roughly felt how long he could maintain his human appearance.
"Nice to meet you." He began to introduce himself, which he had wanted to say before. "I am Oda Sakunosuke."
