The Last Cat in the Universe
Chapter 46
Yue An was as tired as a dead cat.
Poor Kitty Cat suffered from Ji Xiuyun's torture, both physically and mentally.
Every day, he was squeezed dry by Marshal Ji. He could do nothing but lie on the sofa and stare at the ceiling with his belly exposed. Even his eyes were blank.
Yue An couldn't tell if Ji Xiuyun really wanted him to quickly adapt to his human identity, or if Ji Xiuyun wanted him to be so tired that he couldn't go out and do extreme training.
Today was a rare day. Ji Xiuyun went out to do something, but he didn't go to the military headquarters to sit in the office. He had other activities.
This meant that he didn't have time to beat Yue An up physically in the name of practical training. He also didn't have time to wear a cognitive helmet in the military headquarters and torture Yue An mentally.
Yue An's learning progress was amazing these days. He had no problem moving in human form, and his fighting skills had improved greatly. As for his speech, the fastest improvement was in scolding people and acting like a spoiled child.
The shameless poop-picker Ji Xiuyun was able to reject the cute Kitty Cat's attempts to act like a spoiled child and insisted on giving him poor practical training.
Yue An found it hard to believe, and in the end, he simply gave up on treatment.
Today, Yue An finally had some free time to stay at home. He finally remembered his long-lost broadcasting career.
He was lying on the sofa with his belly exposed. His tail was wagging leisurely, and he was playing with his optical computer like a salted fish.
The screen of the live broadcast was suspended at a very suitable distance in front of him. Bubbles rushed out one after another. The audience was crying, and they were talking about how hard it was to live without a cat.
[Without fresh cat breath, life is worse than death.]
[Without fresh cat breath, the world is falling apart.]
[Without fresh cat breath, I can't live.]
[I'm crying. I used to broadcast every day and I was spoiled. I feel uncomfortable if I don't breathe.]
Yue An tilted his head. He didn't have any special feelings about these comments.
Although it sounded like a heartless scumbag, the Yue An was not short of money now.
Various toys and games based on his image had already been put into production.
This kind of entertainment product was not like the Internet. There was no wall between the sale of toys and games.
Yue An's sales were spread all over the galaxy, and the profits were considerable. Every day, he would just lie at home and earn money. He was like a little rich cat. Even Ji Xiuyun couldn't compare to him. Of course, this was without taking into account Ji Xiuyun's various fixed assets.
Yue An flipped over and lay on his stomach. The optical computer's interface fell and stopped at a suitable distance in front of him.
When Yue An did not say anything, the viewers in the live streaming room were especially good at chatting and making jokes to entertain themselves.
They could talk about everything from current affairs and politics to food farming. Occasionally, they would even talk about investment and financial management.
There were many tyrants in Yue An's live streaming room. Being able to stay at the top of the comments bubble without being covered up quickly was one of the privileges of this class.
This title could only be obtained by spending at least 50 million yuan a month on the platform.
It was said that many people did not come for the cat. Instead, they came for the various small lessons that these tycoons brought out. Some people even took notes seriously and tried to fly with these tycoons.
Yue An was playing a little game recommended by the viewers in the live streaming room with his tail. He was too lazy to even move his paws.
[Today's big news again.]
[Our planet is in the middle of a war. There's big news all day long.]
[Our planet destroyed a large poisonous plant base the day before yesterday. We're following up on it. There's big news all day long.]
[… I overestimated you. It's normal that you don't pay attention to this if you're not in the entertainment industry. Look at the galactic entertainment section.]
There had been a lot of big news in the Empire of Sintes recently.
Not long after the military section reported that Marshal Ji Xiuyun was attacked and disappeared, the social section reported that there was the last cat in the universe. Then, the legal section suddenly reported that the Empire's Supreme Court was in session. Before this matter had settled down, it was reported that there was a large-scale illegal transaction under the central business district of Imperial Planet.
Just a week after the military cracked this large-scale illegal transaction case, another big news broke out in the entertainment section.
Marshal Kevin's wife, the famous galactic movie star, Lady Ellie, was filming an advertisement on the 31st film planet in the 2nd Galaxy. She was described as intimate with a strange man.
Along with this piece of news, there was also a long list of photos that were obviously taken secretly.
The paparazzi profession had been worn down for countless years, but it still hadn't been slapped to death by the torrent of time. Instead, because of the development of technology, it had become even more difficult to guard against.
This also led to the current situation where disguises were becoming more and more popular in the entertainment industry.
Regarding the opinions of this news, it was inevitable that there would be arguments about portrait rights and privacy issues. After that, there would be discussions about the news itself.
[We're back after watching it. Can we team up and catch the sheep above Marshal Kevin's head?]
[I don't care!
Ellie is so good-looking!]
[Clickbait. That's not a strange man. The one sitting next to Ellie is less than 30 years old.]
[Let's not talk about other things. That young man is really good-looking.]
[Little fresh meat!
Little wolf puppy!
Little cutie!]
[Marshal Kevin: I don't think so.]
[Isn't the age difference a little too big …]
[Forget about the age difference. These two faces together are really pleasing to the eye.]
[Wait a minute. Are you guys just going to accept the fact that Lady Ellie might have cheated so easily?!]
[Marshal Kevin: I don't think so.]
Yue An put down his tail and looked at the game ending notification on the interface. He looked up at the comments and then looked at the news.
He was stunned when he saw it.
Wasn't this the fake photo that he had taken two days ago when he was with Lady Ellie?
[Lady Ellie said that she would hold a press conference to clarify the matter.]
[Hey, I saw a close-up. Why hasn't such a good-looking young man been exposed before??]
[I saw it too …]
[You guys … Don't you think that this young man looks a little like Xiao Yu 'an?]
[I wouldn't have thought so if you didn't mention it. Now that you mention it …]
[White hair and blue eyes. He looks delicate. A kitten spirit?]
Yue An looked at the comments and was finally willing to move his mouth. He meowed softly.
How could they not look alike?
Yue An thought proudly. Such a good-looking young man is me!
[Xiao Yu 'an thinks so too. I wonder if this young man is a newbie in the entertainment industry.]
[If he is, I'll see how Ellie's press conference goes. If it clarifies that he didn't cheat, I'll be a fan.]
[Isn't it great to suck kittens while sucking kittens?]
[Hahaha, maybe the press conference will say that this young man is a newbie in the studio. Everyone, please take care of him.]
Yue An looked at the comments and guessed what Lady Ellie was going to do.
Ha, naive humans.
Yue An patted his little belly and stretched out his paws to take out the snacks that he had bought for a few days but didn't have time to eat them. He opened the packaging.
The reporters will scare you to death when they come out!
Lady Ellie's press conference was very lively. Basically, all the reputable media outlets in the entertainment industry were there.
Lady Ellie didn't say much and went straight to the point.
"I know what everyone is here for today."
Lady Ellie's expression was calm. She was still elegant and reserved. She seemed to be in a good state of mind and didn't show any signs of panic because of the big news.
"First of all, as usual, we will pursue the legal responsibility of the Weekly Magazine for secretly taking photos and making false reports. Secondly, I will explain the identity of the young man in the photo that everyone is concerned about."
"I met him a month ago on Movie Planet No. 31. Because he looks like Yue An … Yes, that cat, we chatted for a while and gradually became familiar with each other."
Lady Ellie's words were too suggestive. The audience was so shocked that their jaws dropped.
What was going on?! It was as if she was declaring that her true love had cheated!
Marshal Kevin, are you okay? Marshal Kevin?
Quickly look in the mirror and see if there is a faint green light above your head.
"He is an orphan and hasn't reached the age to leave the orphanage. He only has a number and no name."
"As everyone knows, my husband and I have been married for more than a hundred years. However, because both of us are busy with work, we don't spend much time together. Our best childbearing age is about to pass."
Lady Ellie paused. The audience watching the press conference also paused for two seconds.
After two seconds, they came back to their senses and carefully thought about it. Why did these two sentences sound a little strange?
Then, the beautiful woman with the title of "Interstellar Beauty" revealed a gentle and bright smile to the camera. It was like the warm sunshine in winter.
"Therefore, my husband and I have decided to adopt this child."
Lady Ellie said, "Today is the day my husband is bringing him to register his identity."
Yue An was slightly stunned when he heard this. His ears on the top of his head trembled slightly. He heard a rustling sound coming from the window on the second floor.
Hearing this sound, he knew that it was broad daylight. The grand Marshal of the Empire was climbing through the window again!
Yue An clapped his paws and quickly turned off the live broadcast. He left the stunned audience in the live broadcast room and raised his head to look at Marshal Kevin who was climbing through the window on the second floor.
Marshal Kevin waved at him from the second floor with a pile of fake materials that he had prepared in advance. He shouted happily, "Son!"
Yue An shook his fur and didn't want to talk to him.
Marshal Kevin came down from the second floor and threw away the bag of snacks next to Yue An. He picked up the Yue An who was lying on the sofa and weighed him.
Then, like an old father who hadn't seen his son in a long time, he said, "You've lost weight."
Yue An: "…"
Wake up.
Ever since this cat gained intelligence, his weight and body shape have been fixed.
Don't give yourself too much drama.
Marshal Kevin didn't know that his fatherly love wasn't appreciated at all.
He hugged the soft and warm cat in his arms. He wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, he asked Yue An, "Do you want to go out and play?"
Yue An's ears trembled slightly. He turned his head to look at Marshal Kevin.
Marshal Kevin rubbed Yue An's little head and said, "Daddy will take you out to play after you've registered!"
"Meow!"
Yue An sat up and stared at Marshal Kevin with his blue eyes.
Marshal Kevin smiled and stretched out his hand in front of Yue An. He asked, "Let's go play mecha. Do you want to come?"
Yue An didn't hesitate. He placed his paw on Marshal Kevin's hand.
Go, go, go!
Anything was better than being beaten up by Ji Xiuyun!
The man and the cat reached a perfect consensus. They changed their clothes and left through the window.
Yue An's human name was still registered under Yue An's name. Marshal Kevin and the new cat under the suspicious gaze of the staff in the household registration department went through all the procedures in a serious manner.
However, the two of them didn't expect to bump into Ji Xiuyun the moment they stepped into the military's mecha training ground. He was there to look at the design sketches of the new Silver Blade. He was also there to give the mecha master the latest form so that he could confirm all the data.
Marshal Ji looked at the two dumbfounded people. He looked at his teacher and finally at Yue An.
He immediately guessed what the two of them were there for.
He was very familiar with Marshal Kevin's tricks.
When Ji Xiuyun was still under him, he realized that Marshal Kevin only had one trick for coaxing children.
I'll take you to play mecha.
"You want to play mecha?" Marshal Ji asked calmly.
Yue An, who had been beaten up for a week, almost meowed out loud.
However, he stubbornly resisted his instinctive impulse and nodded at Ji Xiuyun with a taut face, replying with perfect articulation, "Yes."
"That's good." Marshal Ji nodded. "I happen to be free. I'll be your sparring partner."
Yue An, "…??"
I don't want you to be my sparring partner!
Why do you always have time?!
The highest ranking general was always slacking off. Why was the military still standing?
Yue An couldn't believe it.
