Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 212 Kemeow and the little black cat
West District, the Nighthawks team.

Klein, who was finishing an extraordinary mission, received a new mission.

Cooperate with the police department and catch a black cat that may be a problem.

When Klein heard the mission description for the first time, he also thought he had heard it wrong. No matter what he said, he was still a Sequence 8 clown, and he was only short of enough credit to be a Sequence 7 magician in exchange for the corresponding Extraordinary potion. Successfully promoted.

No matter how extravagant the Nighthawks team is, it's still not enough to send a team member to deal with a black cat, right?
But when he finished reading the file, his brows were slightly frowned, and he had a new understanding of the case.

Although the outrageous propaganda slogan of returning my peace at night in the West District did not come true, but as the number of people attacked by the little black cats increased, the police station did send a three-person team to haunt the alleys where crimes frequently occurred late at night.

Unexpectedly, after two or three days of squatting, they actually met a rather special black cat.

The black cat walked from the roof to every nearby alley like a midnight ghost.

They didn't take it seriously at first, until the little black cat taught a drunk man who was bullying stray cats in front of them, they realized that this cat was unusual.

But they couldn't catch up with the little black cat that was able to shuttle freely on the roof, so they could only watch each other leave.

The drunk man who was attacked had his face almost scratched by the cat's claws.

When Klein saw this, he didn't sympathize with the drunks who were attacked by cats, but felt sorry for the innocent stray cats who were hurt.

He doesn't keep cats, but he likes cats for no reason. These little guys seem to be very close to him.

The situation of stray cats is already very difficult. It’s fine if they don’t feed them, and they are brutally abused after drinking. Such people are attacked by cats, and they don’t deserve sympathy at all.

The people above believe that this series of attacks may be related to the Witch Sect.

It is possible for a cat to attack a person if the frequency is small, but if the frequency is too high, there may be other factors.

During this period of time, the group of guys secretly looking for followers of the stars stopped, and their captain entrusted him with this small task and gave him a lot of freedom.

Klein chose to accept this mission. While looking for the black cat, he could also look for traces of Lanerus.

This is a very cost-effective task for him.

Through the divination above the gray mist, he successfully obtained the revelation that Lanerus might be active in the vicinity of the Eastern District.

……

In the middle of the night, a little black cat was lying on the roof of a house, looking lazily at everything below.

When its eyes swept across the sewer below, there was an obvious expression of disgust on its face.

There was a small rustling sound from the dirty and smelly sewer, and suddenly waves of mice ran out of the sewer crazily.

Such a large number of rats quickly attracted the attention of some stray cats nearby. They gathered one after another, and some stayed outside the sewer, waiting for the fleeing rats to come to their door.

Some stray cats choose to enter the dirty and smelly sewers to prey because of hunger.

But the strange thing is that there are many stray cats entering the sewer, but there are very few stray cats that can finally come out alive.

"Meow."

In this regard, the little black cat meowed in confusion. It has been paying attention to this sewer for a while, seeing how many stray cats and dogs and other animals it swallowed in its dark opening.

It wanted to go into the sewer to investigate, but the stench was so unbearable that it gave up every time.

It can't tolerate its beautiful, smooth and fragrant hair, and the stench of sewers.

So it just stays out and waits for something new to happen.

Tonight, it squatted patiently as usual.

Suddenly, besides the stray cats and dogs who were attracted by the sewer, there was also a chubby man who also entered the sewer.

But not long after, the man screamed and retreated from the sewer, holding a bunch of weed-like things in his hands.

Something terrible seemed to be chasing the man in the sewers.

When the thing poked its head out of the sewer, the little black cat let out a shocked meow.

That thing turned out to be a mouse, a very big mouse, bigger than a normal stray cat, and about the size of a stray dog.

Its eyes were flickering with madness and gore, fresh blood dripped from the corner of its mouth, and there were many cat hairs on its body.

Should have just preyed on more than one stray cat.

"Meow!"

The little black cat stood up, put away its lazy gaze, and galloped angrily towards the entrance of the sewer below.

The big black mouse, who was planning to go back to the sewer, saw a kitten that was obviously several sizes smaller than him, and was about to die.

It lowered its head slightly, making a gesture of pouncing on the food, and its eyes were fixed on the little black cat that was getting closer.

"Meow!"

The little black cat took the lead in attacking.

Its body was extremely flexible, and when the big black mouse pounced on it, it dexterously avoided the pounce, and instead waved its cat's claws to leave a small bloodstain on the big black mouse.

The pain provoked the ferocious nature of the big black mouse, and it began to use its rough skin, thick flesh, and huge body to attack like crazy.

The little black cat fought and avoided, always kept a certain safe distance, always seized the opportunity, and won back a bloodstain with its paws.

After repeated defeats and injuries, the big black mouse found an opportunity to run back into the sewer, no matter how the little black cat yelled, it ignored it, and quickly disappeared.

The little black cat tried to come forward, but when it smelled the pungent smell of the sewer, it hurriedly avoided, and waved its paws, trying to dispel the smell of the sewer.

After leaving, the little black cat found a place with water and washed its bloody cat paws. After confirming that the cleaning was complete, it left here and returned to the home it was longing for along the same route.

When it returned home after a long journey, its owner was already standing in the house waiting for it to come back.

It landed on the window sill, squeezed its head away from the glass that was closed by the wind, let out a happy meow, and wanted to jump into the arms of its owner.

But just as he was in mid-air, he was picked up by the back of his neck.

"Azshara, where did you go tonight? Why is there a disgusting smell on your body?"

"Meow!"

Azshara's cat fur exploded all over her body. It had obviously smelled it several times, so she probably didn't get the smell of that sewer.

"This is not good, it needs to be cleaned first."

"Meow."

Azshara lowered her head and made a reluctant voice.

After cleaning several times, it was sprayed with a little rose essence that is harmless to cats.

After becoming fragrant again, Azshara lay down in her den, staring at her master in dissatisfaction.

It has obviously been washed, but he still seems to dislike himself and refuse to let himself stay in his arms.

"Meow."

Azshara looked away a little aggrieved, and buried her head in her two front legs.

Suddenly, the little head sank, and the familiar feeling of scratching made it feel comfortable and poked out his head again, closed his eyes, and let out a happy meowing sound.

"Azshara, the West District seems to be under martial law recently, you should try to avoid it during this time."

"No matter what happens in the future, you must be patient and not impatient. You are a born assassin. Assassins don't fight people face to face. You have to learn to find the enemy's flaws."

"Then wait for the right opportunity to come, and strive to achieve a one-hit kill."

Hastur told Azshara a lot about the essentials of playing an assassin.

Tonight he also followed Azshara in a spirit body, and witnessed Azshara's fight with the big black mouse.

Azshara has the upper hand in dexterity, and if the opportunity is right, there is a chance to scratch the weak throat of the big black mouse with a claw.

You can also choose the eyes, lower abdomen and other positions to start.

After educating Azshara, Hastur went back to his room to rest.

The big black mouse that suddenly appeared in the sewer tonight may have something to do with Lanrus.

He remembered that after Lanevus fled from Tingen to Backlund, he had been imprisoned by members of the Aurora Society because of his special reasons for being different from the real Creator.

In order to escape the grasp of the Aurora Society, he adopted many self-rescue methods.

One of the methods is to pretend to be out of control, then go to the sewer, secretly infect some of the creatures there with blood, turning them into vicious mutant monsters.

Combined with tonight's situation, that sewer is very likely to be the place where Lanerus secretly infected with blood.

"Lan Erwusi, let Klein solve it by himself."

Hastur didn't have any particular thoughts about Lanevus. Of course, if Lanevus really appeared in front of him, he wouldn't mind taking a shot to solve him.

The power related to the real creator in him does contain a lot of danger, it would be bad if he accidentally hurt Azshara.

……

Above the gray mist, Klein once again divined the whereabouts of Lanerus. This time, he saw a sewer, and he also saw clearly the specific buildings nearby.

He was going to investigate tomorrow, find this sewer, and then use the excuse of looking for the little black cat to go to that sewer to guard at night.

Klein was still very excited when he thought that he was about to meet Lanwusi and repay Tingen's hatred.

What made him even happier was that if Lanevus could really be solved, his contribution should be enough to be promoted to Sequence 7 Magician.

"Langerus, Ince Zangwill, wait for the revenge from Tingen!"
