Chapter 140 – Cat Dad is Arrested Again?
“Add-on skill?”
Xiaomao was stunned.
From what he knew, superhumans relied on the raw abilities that they learned in the game. However, none of the superhumans could learn new skills in the real world. But now, Mu-Nyang showed him the possibility of acquiring new skills in the real world.
Secondly, the skill was something that Xiaomao had never heard of.
The game’s add-on skills were mostly passive skills, which benefited a character’s growth in the long run. Later on, active add-on skills showed up to trick inexperienced players, but many ultra-rare skills could replace them.
And lastly, karmic things seemed to be exclusive skills or abilities of powerful NPCs, such as Cernun. Even the Instinct and Foresight skill warned him in-game that he was not ready to get involved with karmic skills.
Seeing how Mu-Nyang gave him a mysterious ability in real life, Xiaomao’s favorable impression of Mu-Nyang rose to 5 stars.
But there was a problem. He couldn’t summon a system menu or a game menu to check the skill detail.
Unable to identify the skill, Xiaomao followed Mu-Nyang to his bedroom. He asked the cat.
“Mu-Nyang, what can the skill do?”
But upon getting back to his bedroom, Mu-Nyang was no longer there. Only Nyanko and Mama Cat were around, watching the scenery through the window.
“Nyanko, mama cat, where’s Mu-Nyang and Mir?”
Nyanko and Mama Cat turned around.
Meo? (Who knows?)
Nya? (They aren’t with papa?)
“Huh?”
Xiaomao was sure that Mu-Nyang went back to his room. He looked around on the second floor, looking for his cat.
Looking around for 10 minutes, Xiaomao stopped. He couldn’t find both Mir and Mu-Nyang on the second floor no matter how hard he looked.
“Meh, are they hiding somewhere? Forget it.”
Xiaomao returned to the kitchen table and fetched the laptop and the scroll. He brought them back to his bedroom.
TUTUTUTUTUTU
While Xiaomao was carrying the laptop to the second floor, the loud sound of a helicopter was audible.
‘A passing by helicopter…’
Xiaomao ignored the chopper and got back to his bedroom. He opened the scroll and the laptop, trying to read and decipher the ancient language.
TUTUTUTUTUTU
For some reason, the noise kept louder. Nyanko and Mama Cat ran away from the window and went into hiding.
Xiaomao was about to use his camera to compare the text with the online dictionary. Suddenly, his right eyebrow uncontrollably twitched.
He frowned and looked at the window.
At that moment, Xiaomao heard the voice of Mu-Nyang in his mind.
Munya (Shove the scroll into your chest and act natural!)
“…”
Xiaomao pursed his lips. Although he had a thousand questions, he folded the scroll and pressed it against his chest.
Magically, the scroll sank into his chest as if his body was a mass of liquid.
Seeing the phenomenon in front of his eyes, Xiaomao stopped thinking about logic.
“Screw it. Scrap it. I don’t know anymore.”
Despite saying that, Xiaomao attempted to push his laptop into his chest. Unfortunately, he failed.
Xiaomao attempted to pull out the scroll from his chest. Surprisingly, his hands went inside his chest, and he could touch the scroll in there.
“I see. Only game items work, right?”
Mu-Nyang didn’t answer. Even if the cat replied, Xiaomao could no longer hear him.
TUTUTUTUTUTU
The helicopter’s sound was so loud, and the wind hit the windows. His entire house trembled because of the down-pressed wind from the chopper’s blades.
Xiaomao stopped what he was doing and looked through the window.
In front of his house, a military APC was already there, and soldiers in green fortified behind barricades.
The helicopter in question had already descended so low that the landing rails almost touched the electric poles. The Z-10 attack chopper rotated and pointed its guns at Xiaomao’s window.
Xiaomao was confused and shocked. He didn’t understand why the PLA was surrounding his house.
In front of the house, a man in a suit stood behind a group of soldiers with riot shields. He held a speaker phone and declared.
“To whoever inside the house, come out and do not resist!”
Several laser pointers were aimed at Xiaomao’s forehead. He looked up and found several snipers on the roof of the other buildings.
Since when did they get there?
As Xiaomao wanted no trouble, he came down to the first floor and opened the front door. When Xiaomao walked out of the house, a dozen soldiers pointed their rifles at him.
The cat dad raised his hands, showing no sign of resistance.
The man in a suit and a group of soldiers approached Xiaomao. At the same time, the attack helicopter changed its position and hovered over Xiaomao’s house, but it still aimed the guns at him.
“What the hell is going on?!” Xiaomao bellowed.
The black-suit man approached Xiaomao, “Are you Miao Xiaomao?”
“Who’s asking?”
“Police here. You’ll be coming with us.”
The man showed his badge, but he put the badge away in a hurry as if he didn’t want Xiaomao to read his ID and his name.
Xiaomao looked around. From the looks of it, the soldiers seemed to be dead serious as they were ready to pull the trigger at any moment.
“Am I under arrest? For what?!” Xiaomao was still confused about why the police and soldiers wanted him.
The man took a deep breath and brought out a paper.
“We have a warrant. You’re under suspicion of the recent terrorist attack on the school bus a few days ago.”
“Huh?!” Xiaomao couldn’t believe what he had heard, “But I’m a victim!”
“We’ll know once we head to the station.”
Xiaomao still didn’t believe in the black suit man.
Still, Xiaomao played along and followed the man to the police van. A soldier cuffed his wrists and threw him into the custody van. Four soldiers followed Xiaomao inside and sat next to him.
Before the van was closed, Xiaomao noticed that the man in the suit directed the soldiers to search the house.
BAM
The soldiers closed the van’s door, and the driver started the engine.
