"It's the Mao Gang! They are the ones responsible for your cats' disappearance." Naturally, the fat cat pushed all the blame away from itself to this third party, "They were spotted by Mao Gang the moment they set foot in this city. I merely sent them to XX town. By now, they should already be in their hands. Just give up already."

"Mao Gang?" Zhao Yao's face turned into a scowl, "What is that?"

The fat cat slid Zhao Yao a condescending glare as if he were a r*tard, "You don't even know who they are and here you are shooting your mouth off in their territory."

Zhao Yap responded with a resounding slap against its plump cheeks and commanded, "Stop your bullshit and tell me everything about them."

"Mao Gang is the strongest apostle organization in Ürümqi, led by none other than the revered cat king of Ürümqi. Your cat is as good as dead the moment they set their eyes on it." A sinister smile tugged at the corner of its lips as it announced, "Just give up already. There is no chance of you getting your cat back!"

Instead, this managed to pique Zhao Yao's curiosity, "An apostle organization in Ürümqi? Interesting. Don't tell me that they specialize in kidnapping supercats?" Zhao Yao felt his hands squeezed into fists unknowingly. He had heard of news regarding such organizations specializing in kidnapping services but he had never expected to come head to head against them.

Zhao Yao stared intently at the fat cat before shooting his next question, "Where do they normally hide all their cats?"

The fat cat exclaimed, "Why would I know? It's their trade secret! Don't tell me that you're actually thinking of rescuing your cats. You're crazy!"

Zhao Yao did not speak but simply threw his palms together into a cap. Instantly, an extradimensional belly gate materialized behind the fat cat before Zhao Yao threw it in with one kick.

There was nothing more that Zhao Yao could get from this interrogation. Furthermore, he had no way of verifying the authenticity of that fat cat's words. Hence, he might as well throw it into the belly and dragged him out when the situation called for it.

Roly Poly stared curiously at Zhao Yao and asked, "What now, Zhao Yao? Are we going to take down that organization?"

Zhao Yao gave a shake of his head, "I cannot trust this cat completely. Also, it's unwise to judge your actions based on the words of a single individual. You might just end up with an innocent victim. I'll need to corroborate this information with another source."

"Who?"

Zhao Yao whispered, "I've already contacted Inspector Ho on the situation. Let's see what information the local government apostles managed to collect."

…

The fat cat stared dumbfoundedly as its vision spiraled into an abyss of darkness. In a blink of an eye, he found himself straddled in a never before seen world.

Its mouth went slack as it attempted to comprehend these strange surroundings, "This is …"

Like any ordinary cat, the fat cat's instinct was to bury its body into the nearest hiding spot whenever it found itself in a new environment. With its body buried in the comfortable cat bed, it began to steal a glance at its surroundings from time to time.

"Hey, is that a new cat?" Ares craned his neck towards this conspicuous fat cat, "Stop glancing around and get your fat ass out of there."

Timidly, the fat cat raised its head towards the source of this mysterious voice. Fear continued to splinter its heart as it asked, "Where is this place? Where am I?"

"According to the rules here, a newcomer is responsible for the cleanliness of the place." Ares instructed as he pointed his index finger towards the toilet, "You can start by cleaning the toilet. Do you understand?"

The fat cat's eyes swept towards the direction which Ares pointed at and was flabbergasted by the atrocity staring back at it. The entire automatic self-cleaning litter box was covered with all sorts of unknown grimes and stains. In a human context, it was the equivalent of a public toilet which was left uncleaned for more than 10 days. A strong urge to vomit ran through its body.

Immediately, the fat cat began to quiver with indignation and retorted, "Why do I have to listen to you and clean it up?"

"Feisty newcomer. Are you trying to say that you do not agree with our long-established rules?" Ares scoffed.

Uncle Egg shook his head and tried to reason, "Young cat, calm down. Initially, you might find this treatment rather unfair but you'll start to grow used to it. After some time, you might even like it here."

Instead, its annoyance flared as it screamed, "D*mn it! But I'm a supercat!"

Uncle Egg continued to nod his head nonchalantly, "Just like the rest of us here."

"Uncle Egg, don't waste your breath on such an adamant fool." Ares threw his paws in the air as his deflective field concentrated in a single point, "It will listen after a good beating."

Ten minutes later, the fat cat was adorned with two giant bruises at the top of its head and two pieces of tissues stuffed up its nostrils. With its paw pressing against the cloth, it began to clean the interior of the toilet meticulously. It was whispering in its head, "Who is this blind a*shole? Can't he just aim into the hole when he's peeing? Look at all these pee stains accumulated here!"

Ares roared out his next instruction, "Hey, hurry up! After this, you still have nine more litter boxes to clean!"

The fat cat stared at the remaining litter boxes and felt tears welling in its eyes.

…

As promised, Zhao Yao met Inspector Ho at the location which they had agreed upon. However, both Sphynx Cat and Roly Poly were by his side, while remaining invisible.

From afar, Zhao Yao had already noticed a woman casually standing by the side of the road. Even the jeans she donned was exactly the same as the one in the photograph Inspector Ho sent.

Objectively speaking, she was not the most beautiful women around but she did have a pair of long and slender legs. Somehow, there was this unknown strength radiating from it. To Zhao Yao, it even felt somewhat threatening. This was the exact feeling Zhao Yao had when he saw a weapon.

"An ordinary person would think that I have fallen for this pair of legs. However, I am no ordinary human. I have the strength of 'five is better than four', my instincts tell me that there is something unique about her legs. Her power is definitely connected to her legs."

Zhao Yao approached her with a self-introduction, "Hi, I am Daniel Wu."

This girl immediately slid Zhao Yao a curious glance. Everything about Zhao Yao was classified information, restricted to the higher-ups. Naturally, she was left out of the loop. However, she knew the significance of this individual in the higher-ups' eyes. Hence, she was instructed by her superior to co-operate as much as possible in this mission.

However, she still felt somewhat embarrassed to hear Zhao Yao introduced himself as Daniel Wu, "Hi, Daniel. Hi, I'm Ye Mei. Are you here to find your two cats?" She continued scrutinizing Zhao Yao's ordinary appearance and found no logical reason for her superiors to regard this man with such significance.

Zhao Yao then flashed the photos of Red Packet and Lightning in her face before clarifying, "My two cats were last spotted in this area. I believe they might have boarded the bus towards XX town. Hence, I hope you can help me access the security cameras on route to this place. Also, I think their disappearance might be connected to the Mao Gang."

"Mao Gang?" Ye Mei's expression immediately turned into a frown, "Are you sure it's related to them?"

Obviously, Zhao Yao noticed the stark change in tone and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with this Mao Gang?"

"Mao Gang is a local apostle organization. They are rather strong." In actual fact, 'rather strong' would be a vast understatement. Their leader was the champion of the inaugural Urumuqi cat king competition. His power should not be underestimated.

With his clout, the organisation began to earn a massive amount of money through its supercat trades. By connecting with powerful players across the country, Mao Gang had created an elaborate market, meant to serve those who craved for their own supercats.

With such a huge network, the apostles and supercats working for Mao Gang were naturally the strongest around. Their resources had been evenly split amongst their territory. Many a time, Ye Mei and fellow government apostles would even resort to asking Mao Gang for help.
