The Strange Cat from Fuuto

"Philip!"

"I know!"

Shotaro, transforming into blazing steel, rushed towards the dopant's back, only to find it empty. His futile swinging of his stick was met with a touch of the now iron-gray dopant. The grotesque claw marks on the dopant's neck rapidly spread, engulfing its entire body. The next second, it shattered into a pile of fragments. A gust of wind sent dust scattering everywhere.

"We're late, Shotaro!"

"I know, partner!"

Miku stood on a beam of the Ferris wheel, watching Shotaro transform from afar. A glimmer of light flashed in his blood-red eyes before quickly fading away.

Chapter Sixteen: Cats Eating Candy Are the Most Deadly!

The stalker case involving Wakana was eventually solved, and the culprit turned out to be the usually timid manager, Ageo. However, he was beaten to ashes by Miku, so his motive for the crime remained unknown. But Miku felt there was more to the story. After all, although they didn't know much about Ageo, it was clear he wasn't the kind of person who would dare to touch the Gaia Memory.

"You...investigate...the...sales...records...of...the...Upper...Tail...Memory...and...the...detailed...process!"

After giving orders to the middle-aged man named Wei Li, whom the old man had appointed, Miku never left his house again. In the last battle, Miku appeared invincible, but only he knew the hardships and suffering he endured!

"Still too weak. I don't know how the original owner fought before, there's no reference point!"

"I'm so tired!"

Just as Miku was pondering his question, Wakana's voice came. Upon hearing it, Miku squinted his eyes and greeted Wakana cheerfully.

"Miku, look what I brought you!!"

Wakana excitedly opened the door, holding a gift box tied with a bow. "What...wh...what?" Miku jumped off the cat tree and came to Wakana's side, habitually rubbing against her, her eyes wide as she waited for the gift box. After seeing the gift box placed on the table, Miku jumped onto it, revealing its paws, and with a gentle flick, cut the outer ribbon, beginning to tear open the gift's wrapping.

"I went to that detective's office today to see Shotaro's partner, Philip!" Wakana said absentmindedly as she helped Miku open the gift box. "But that guy is too shy; he kept hiding behind the door and wouldn't come out!"

"You are...not...happy!"

Upon seeing the lollipop in the box, Miku looked disappointed. "I can't even suck on it, why did you give me this?!" she thought. And it wasn't even the usual translucent lollipop; the color was like poop! It was absolutely disgusting for a cat!

"I'm not unhappy, just a little disappointed!"

"After all, I was very grateful to them for helping me so much, but after I got there I realized it was all wishful thinking on my part!"

Wakana continued talking to herself, shoving the poop-like lollipop into Miku's mouth. "What the hell are you doing? Don't put poop in my mouth!" Miku internally screamed, but unconsciously licked the lollipop with her barbed tongue. Her eyes lit up, her mouth filled with the aroma of plants, a subtle sweetness that made her saliva flow uncontrollably. Her brain immediately went blank, leaving only one thought: Lick it, lick it, lick it now!

Standing upright, Miku held the lollipop in its paws, opened its mouth wide, and frantically licked it with its tongue. With each thrust, its saliva-laden tongue would leave a fine layer of plant debris clinging to the barbs of its tongue. This behavior only fueled Miku's obsession!

"What does Philip actually look like?"

Wakana, holding a lollipop in one hand and resting her chin on the other, was lost in thought. Philip's appearance was like a ray of light, suddenly illuminating her path. Before, she had been like a puppet on a string, being led along aimlessly by her father. She had chosen to be an entertainer as a form of rebellion, like a rebellious child standing with their hands on their hips, shouting to their parents, "I want to live my own life, and I don't need you to tell me what to do!" Her entertainment career had almost been ended because of this guy, Ueto. When the police were at a loss, Philip told her the key, like Zixia being bound and forced into marriage by the Bull Demon King, only to be greeted by Supreme Treasure riding on a colorful cloud.

"What kind of person do you think he is?!"

Wakana then turned her gaze to Miku, but what did she see?!

It lay sprawled on the table, its lower body dangling over the edge, clinging to its hands with its paws to keep from falling. Its eyes rolled back, drool dripped from the corner of its mouth, and its tongue lolled out. Its once smooth fur was now a mess, and its two testicles were exposed in broad daylight.

"Miku, what's wrong?!"

"Lollipop...it's so...so delicious, I...want...more!"

"Lollipop...candy, lollipop...candy, lollipop..."

Miku's translation machine malfunctioned even more severely at this point, constantly emitting lollipop-like sounds. When Ruocai turned her head, she realized that the cat-specific catnip stick she had bought had been chewed up to the last crumb, leaving only a small stick lying forlornly in Miku's saliva.

When I turned my head again, Miku was nowhere to be seen, only a series of glistening water stains remained on the floor.

"Oh no, where did Miku go?!"

When Wakana went outside, she looked around, but Miku was nowhere to be seen.

On this day, everyone in the Sonozaki mansion experienced the terror of being dominated by a cat!

When Miku regained consciousness, she found herself tied up like a pig, with several members of the Sonozaki family surrounding her.

"What's wrong with me?!"

Miku, realizing his precarious situation, opened his mouth and his body writhed like a caterpillar.

"Have we been discovered?"

A bad feeling rose in Miku's heart, and she quickly widened her eyes, trying to fool the situation.

The old man said very seriously, "From today onwards, Miku, you are not allowed to touch the wood catnip again!"

"Ruocai, you all remember this too, no one is allowed to buy this kind of thing for Miku!"

"Miku, if you touch me again, I'll send you to the hospital to be castrated!"

"you understand?!"

The old man's expression seemed genuine, and Miku felt a chill run down his spine, quickly nodding like a grasshopper kowtowing. Only then did the old man allow Wuyan to untie Miku.

"What...is...this...situation, Wakana?!"

Miku whispered to Wakana, asking her a question. Wakana picked him up and quickly left, whispering to Miku, "After you ate the catnip, you became very abnormal. Your eyes were lifeless, you were drooling, and your limbs were crooked..."

"Then what"

"Then....."

Recalling the scene after Miku ate the catnip, Ruocai still feels lingering fear. It was a complete disaster, and today's scene will probably leave a deep shadow on her family! In the future, she should stop giving him these things; it's too unfriendly to both him and her family.

"What exactly did I do?"

Miku stretched in Wakana's arms, lost in thought, but his memory was too blurry, like a blackout from drinking too much.

My only memory is of myself munching on that lollipop, and then what?

Hmm, I can't remember!

They say drinking alcohol leads to trouble, but cats eating candy can also be fatal!

"For the sake of your health, it's best to avoid gastrodia elata!"

"Ugh, I don't want to think about it anymore, my head hurts!"

Miku, who had a slight headache, lay relaxed in Wakana's arms, her eyes half-closed. Every maid she encountered ran away as soon as she saw Miku, not even the serious and meticulous head maid, Sugishita.

"Looks like I'll have to behave myself for a while!"

As Miku sighed inwardly, the middle-aged man she had sent out to investigate the results appeared in front of Miku and Wakana. Upon seeing them approach, he bowed respectfully and said, "Lady Wakana, hello!"

"I need to borrow Lord Miku for a while; I have something very important to discuss!"

"Let's go... Ootachi."

Miku, who had jumped out of Wakana's arms, walked ahead with a stern face, followed by the middle-aged man. Watching Miku leave, Wakana couldn't help but pout. She thought to herself, "Miku's like this now, so annoying!"

Unaware of Wakana's thoughts, Miku led the middle-aged man to the garden. Looking at the butterflies fluttering in the flower field, Miku asked, "What...did you...find...?!"

"According to my investigation, it wasn't Ageo who bought the Violent Memory, but this woman named Motoko!"

"She forcibly took Ueto to one of our sales staff, and then, against Ueto's wishes, performed a bio-connection injection on him. In the end, this woman even paid for it!"

"who is she?!"

"She was the host of Fuuto's Voice, but then Ms. Wakana appeared and she lost her former status, so..."

"This... kind of situation... is called... holding a grudge... right?!"

"Yes!"

Miku, whose tail was wagging behind him, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "You...handle...it...after all...I'm...just...a...cat...I...don't...understand...your...human...rules...!"

"People...have good hearts...but they're hard to understand!"

"Yes!"

Otachi immediately left to deal with the matter, leaving Miku alone in front of the flower field, watching the butterflies fluttering and drawing graceful curves in the air.

"It seems we need to put the plan on the agenda!"

Chapter Seventeen: The Cat's Gender Changed!?

The morning breeze rustled through the streets and alleys, and the windmills that could be seen everywhere in the city kept turning. Since the last stalker incident was resolved, Wakana's work continued, but judging from the old man's attitude, she wouldn't be able to keep it up for long before being called back. Now, Miku was trying his best to accompany Wakana to and from get off work.

That's all for today's program. Thank you for listening!

After saying her last sentence, Wakana took off her headphones with a sigh of relief. From her personal perspective, she quite liked this job and always tried her best in every job.

"Your family is becoming increasingly dissatisfied with your work, and they'll probably stop you from working soon!"

"Yeah!"

A long silence followed between them until they arrived at the Sonozaki mansion. After getting out of the car, Miku went straight to the hall without saying a word. Finding the old man, who was reading a newspaper, Miku said, "I...want to...help...the...family...on behalf of...Wakana!"

"Oh, why would you think that?!"

The old man looked at Miku with some surprise. What was wrong with his cat? Why had it changed its attitude today? It usually didn't care about these things at all! It didn't care about anything except Wakana's matter!

Thinking of this, the old man suddenly realized, "For Wakana?!"

"Hmm!" Miku squatted on the ground, looked up at the old man, and said, "I'll take over...a part of...work...for...Wakana, as...exchange, so that...Wakana...can...continue...her...entertainment...career!"

"Even if you say that, Wakana will eventually have to take over the family business; it's her duty as a member of the Sonozaki family!"

"I am also... a member of the... Sonozaki family!"

"Hahaha!"

The old man, laughing heartily, picked up Miku and gently stroked his fur, saying, "Since you want to take over, then I'll give you a part of it!"

"it is good!"

.............................

During dinner, the old man announced this to everyone present, which surprised them all, especially Saeko and her husband.

"Father, are you sure you want Miku to take over?"

Saeko spoke with some excitement, and Kirihiko nodded in agreement, seemingly puzzled by the decision. The old man stood up, walked around the table to Miku, and said, "This was Miku's suggestion!"

"After all, he's also a member of the Sonozaki family!"
