Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

It understood that it really seemed impossible to go back to the past.

"Eh? Little guy, we meet again?"

Stan was walking aimlessly and daydreaming when he suddenly heard a familiar voice nearby.

When I looked up, I saw a familiar blonde girl with blue eyes. If it were based on human standards, she would be extremely beautiful. She was squatting very close to me, holding a small stick in her hand and poking me curiously again and again, and asked with a concerned look on her face,

"What's wrong? You look listless? Did someone bully you again?"

"..."

Stan was stunned when he saw Yulan Dell suddenly appear. Why was she here?

I turned my head and looked around, then suddenly realized...

It turned out that it had unknowingly walked back to the leisure square that it had visited twice before.

Why did he end up here? Stan wondered in surprise.

"Little guy, you came here specifically to see me, right?"

Yulan Dale unceremoniously held Stan in his arms, grabbed his little head and looked at it left and right, then lifted up each of his paws to examine them carefully. Finally, when he was about to separate his two hind legs, Stan couldn't help but kick him lightly.

Hey, that's enough, Stan said with some embarrassment.

"Fortunately, I'm not hurt."

Youlan Dale smiled nonchalantly and returned it to the ground as it was. Then, while gently stroking its soft fur and admiring the pattern on Stan's forehead that looked like a stigmata, he said softly,

"Little guy, you came at the right time. If you had come a little later, you wouldn't have been able to see me!"

"Meow?"

When Stan heard this, he looked at her with some confusion.

"What a clever little fellow!"

Youlan Dell looked at its extremely human appearance and could not help but stroke it greedily a few times, saying with some regret,

"I just received an order to complete some work. It may be difficult for me to have time in the future. I'm waiting for you here~"

"Meow..."

When Stan heard the news, he lowered his ears again and felt a little regretful, although he didn't understand what he was regretting.

Chapter 130: Jerky (5,000 words)

"I just received an order to complete some work. It may be difficult for me to have the free time like now to come here and wait for you~"

Yulan Dell said with a smile, feeling somewhat regretful and reluctant in his heart.

"You look so listless. Now that you're not being bullied, are you hungry?"

Yulan Dell spoke as if talking to herself, took out a piece of dried meat from the small bag she carried with her, and was about to hand it to Stan's mouth, but hesitated before reaching out her hand.

She remembered that every time Rita "fed" her, she would carefully process the food into small pieces that were most suitable for her to eat. So, she imitated Rita, clumsily tearing the dried meat into small pieces of different sizes, and then passed them to the kitten's mouth, saying with a smile,

"Okay, I'll treat you to a snack as a farewell!"

To be honest, the smile that Yu Lan Dale showed when teasing Stan was something that even Rita had never seen before. It was even so bright that it seemed a little heartless. It was hard to imagine such a pure and happy smile appearing on Yu Lan Dale's face.

Yulan Dell never wastes time on internal conflicts. Although she is reluctant, since she has decided to say goodbye, she will not hesitate at all.

However, this would not prevent her from playing seriously one last time with this strange kitten whom she met by chance but with whom she got along quite well.

Just like this piece of dried meat, she accidentally discovered it during her sightseeing these few days. It tasted pretty good, so she bought some more as a snack. It was just right to share it with her "friends" at this time.

"Meow?"

The dried meat was already stuffed in front of Stan. He couldn't help but wrinkle his nose and sniff it, then raised his head to glance at the blonde girl whose face was full of smiles and love. After hesitating for a moment, he turned his head away with a bit of arrogance and lay down again.

"I'm no longer a stray cat. Foolish human girl, do you think you can bribe me with just a few things?"

Stan thought with disdain, as if he didn't want to look at Youlan Dell anymore.

"Hmph, I don't care. If you want to leave, leave now!"

But the long tail behind it curled up disobediently to the side where Youlan Dell was.

"Meow..."

Stan let out a low cry in his throat, feeling even more upset.

Because it found that its action seemed like it was acting out of anger and being coquettish; but in front of its real owner, the jackal, it did not dare to do so at all, as it would make her angry.

He knew very well that he was just a weapon and a creation of his master, and he did not have any other identity;

Only in front of this girl does it look like an ordinary cat...

This contrast, which even a cat would find a little ridiculous, made Stan even more depressed.

"Huh? You don't like it?"

Seeing Stan's lack of interest, Orchiddale was a little confused for a moment, so he picked up a small piece and threw it into his mouth, chewing it carefully, wondering,

"It's delicious, isn't it?"

While Yu Lan Dale was still confused, Stan suddenly stood up silently, shook his body, gently buried his face in Yu Lan Dale's hand that had been placed in front of him, and chewed it with big mouthfuls.

It thought it through and decided to say goodbye properly. After all, they might never have the chance to meet again.

If I act like a spoiled brat at this moment, it would be such a pity to think about it later.

"Does a cat also think about 'later'?"

Stan couldn't help but think, and suddenly, he felt that he was becoming less and less like a cat.

"It's better not to meet in the future. At least I can leave a good impression on her without worrying about my true appearance and accidentally scaring her."

Stan consoled himself.

The closer they were to parting, the more Stan found himself reluctant to leave this seemingly not-so-bright blonde girl who had once saved his life.

Thinking of this, Stan suddenly realized that he seemed to still not know her name until now?

"Meow?"

Stan raised his head, looked at Yulan Dell's face, and tried to ask.

"Huh? You finished eating so quickly?"

Yulan Dell looked at the kitten's eyes that seemed full of desire and immediately misunderstood.

"Do you still want to eat? Wait here for a moment, I'll buy it for you!"

Having said that, he stood up and ran away in a hurry.

"……Meow!"

Stupid humans, you still can’t understand cats’ language!

Stan looked at Youlan Dale's rapidly disappearing back and muttered in frustration.

Who told you that jerky was delicious? It was so dry and full of salt!

It's just you, silly girl. If someone else dared to feed this thing to me, I would have slapped him to death with one claw!

Stan thought a little proudly, but he stayed where he was, quietly waiting for Youlan Dale to come back.

On the other side, Youlan Dell ran into a delicatessen as if he knew the place well, took out the last piece of jerky from his bag, and gestured to the boss,

"Hello, give me some more jerky like this."

The boss just took a quick glance and asked,

"Okay, how much this time?"

Youlan Dell thought for a moment, took out a wad of banknotes from his pocket, slapped them on the table, and spoke the arrogant lines lightly.

"all!"

"Gah?"

The boss was shocked by Youlan Dell's momentum on the spot.

This is just a small episode.

The boss couldn't bear to agree to Youlan Dell's obviously impulsive request, and advised her to stop and not waste it, then packed a large bag for her according to the weight.

"I am back!"

Yulan Dale returned to Stan with a large bag of dried meat, opened the package, took out a piece and handed it to Stan, who ate it quickly.

Yulander smiled happily, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, took out half of the dried meat from the big bag, and carefully piled them on the paper to prevent them from falling on the ground and getting dirty; then he gently pushed them in front of Stan.

"...This little girl, how much can I eat?"

Stan was stunned by the huge pile of dried meat in front of him. It looked like the amount was almost half of what he had.

Is that a bit exaggerated?

"Eat slowly, there's more!"

Yulan Dell enthusiastically shook the half-deflated bag in his hand.

She used her own appetite as a benchmark - considering Stan's size, she cut her own meal in half, then cut it in half again; then she hesitated for a moment, afraid that it was still too much and would make the cat sick, so she hardened her heart and cut it in half again.

After chopping to this extent, Yulan Dell finally nodded with satisfaction - this time it should be enough.

Then, she came back with almost ten kilograms of dried meat, which was not very watery and was exactly the right weight...

"Is this how you feed your cat?"

Stan looked at her with an incredible look, and even had the urge to teach her step by step.

This time, Yulan Dell didn't look at it, but reached out to tie up the bag with only half of it left, then squatted down and carefully tied it around Stan's neck, making sure it was hung securely without affecting his breathing.

Stan was confused and didn't move.

"Well, that's it!"

After tying it, Youlan Dell checked it again, then withdrew his hand with satisfaction. He stroked Stan's soft hair lovingly and said with a smile,

"This is my parting gift! Take it home and let your master feed you~"

Then, Youlan Dale shook his head slightly and said helplessly,

"It's a bit of a shame. I was thinking about whether I'd have the chance to meet your master. But now it seems that there won't be a chance."

She knew that once her mission was completed, she would have to return to headquarters immediately, and then there would be more new missions waiting for her.

This means that it will be difficult to have the opportunity to come to this city again in the future; even if I come again, it will not be like now, where I can leisurely look for an unknown kitten in the city and play some small games with it.

Therefore, this also means that this is really the last time they will see each other, and Yulan Dell knows it very well.

"Meow?"

Stan was stunned for a moment. So fast? He was a little reluctant and couldn't help but raised his paw and gently scratched her palm.

It's a bit reluctant.

"Okay, little one, go home after you finish eating. It doesn't matter if you can't finish it."

Yulan Dale finally rubbed Stan's head and said,

"Don't be so naughty next time. If you get into trouble, I can't save you anymore~"

After saying that, Youlan Dell stood up casually, smiled at it, waved gently, sighed softly, and then turned and left without any reluctance.

"Meow……"

Really gone...

Stan watched Yulandel's departing back, thinking a little lonely.

He raised his paw and touched the bag that was gently tied around his neck. The clear touch was exactly the same as when Yulan Dell had just hung it around his neck.

I really won't see you again...

Stan thought half sadly, half relieved.

At least, he no longer had to worry about the human girl being frightened by his true appearance.

In the past, after going through life-threatening trials and becoming that tall and terrifying figure, Stan was once complacent about the power he had gained.

Because, in the world of stray cats, only those with strong enough strength and quick enough reactions can snatch enough food from their own kind, stray dogs, and even stray humans who are also looking for food in garbage dumps to keep themselves full and avoid falling into the weakness called "hunger".
