Chapter 458: Chapter 458 Little Mo

"OK, time to get to work."

You chuckled as you snapped your fingers, watching the cat doze off.

"You’re not going to activate the Talisman Formation now, are you?" Xian Qianling turned to look at you while also glancing at the cat sprawled across the car seat, seemingly asleep, "The Cat Spirit’s still inside."

"Don’t worry, as someone as reliable as Brother, how could there possibly be any slip-ups."

You tilted your head up at a 35-degree angle and pretended to be smug.

Then, amidst the rolling eyes of Xian Qianling and Zhao Tianjiao, you stretched out your hand to hover over the Little Black Cat; at this tense moment watched by the two, you gently bent your middle finger, with your thumb swiftly following, and used your thumb to press against your middle finger’s nail, before flicking forcefully at the forehead of the Little Black Cat!

"Meow!"

The cat, which appeared to be fast asleep, sprung up instantly, covering its face with its tiny front paws, its eyes wide and gleaming as though shining with tears, giving you a look of utter grievance.

In reality, Little Black Cat had wanted to cover its forehead with its paws, but alas, its legs were just too short, nowhere near able to reach, resulting in this cute, dumb, and amusing scene.

"See, it’s back, isn’t it?"

Xian Qianling and Zhao Tianjiao turned to look at the screen; at this moment, there was no trace of Little Black Cat’s Spiritual Body in the basement, only a bunch of stunned Beihai residents.

The two women exchanged glances, genuinely surprised that you had summoned the Cat Spirit back using such a simple and direct method!

"Alright, now we can make a move."

"Make a move?" Seeing you looking at her, Zhao Tianjiao said doubtfully, "Aren’t you the one who’s supposed to trigger the Formation? You don’t need to look at me if you’re going to make a move."

You said with a smile to Zhao Tianjiao, "Hey, how did you even become the captain? Can’t you see that this Formation of mine is just for show? If I really had the ability to trigger the Wu Xing Liumo Formation, would I need to be here blabbering with you?"

Zhao Tianjiao and Xian Qianling both exclaimed in surprise, but Zhao Tianjiao quickly reacted. The moment she heard you speak, she hastily shouted commands into her wristwatch, "Sun Yang, the Cat Spirit has been dealt with, the Talisman Formation is a decoy. You all must act swiftly and capture these thieves!"

Quickly, six young men emerged from an alley not far ahead, immediately rushing toward the building where the Beihai residents were. Meanwhile, an elderly man with a beard as white as snow sauntered out from a room nearby, sipping from a teapot as he walked.

"Elder Sun, why have you come?"

Zhao Tianjiao showed great respect for this Elder Sun.

A leisurely smile played on Elder Sun’s face, and he gave Zhao Tianjiao a nod before heading straight towards you, saying with a chuckle, "Impressive youth. I truly didn’t expect someone your age could set up the Wu Xing Liumo Formation using such a method."

"You flatter me, Elder. It’s just a façade, a mere ornamental display."

Elder Sun laughed, and then asked, "Young man, which eminent figure of the Taoist Sect are you the disciple of?"

"Me? I’m just a wild Taoist who took up the way halfway through. Half of what I know was taught by my family, the rest I pieced together from various books I’ve read, without much system. What I’ve learned is scattered and chaotic; most of it resembles eye-blocking techniques. They work fine on the small fish and shrimp, but if a real expert came along, a flick of their finger would probably be enough to break through it."

Elder Sun looked at you with a profound gaze and said with a smile, "Impressive youth, truly impressive."

With the return of Little Black Cat’s Spiritual Body, the image on the windshield naturally vanished. You casually grabbed onto the cat’s body and placed it on Xian Qianling’s hands.

Little Black Cat clearly had a fondness for Xian Qianling, immediately snuggling into her embrace and rubbing itself against her soft and tender front.

This randy cat!

You felt quite disgruntled as you grabbed it by the neck and lifted it up, taking a look at its crucial parts.

Eh?

Female.

The females are randy these days.

o(︶︿︶)o Sigh, no match for a cat.

"Why are you grabbing it like that?" Seeing Little Black Cat meowing pitifully, Xian Qianling quickly snatched it from your hands and held it in her arms.

"I’ll leave this little cat in your hands from now on."

"Ah?" Xian Qianling paused for a moment, then shook her head, "No, I have to start work in a few days; I’ll have no time to keep it company then. Didn’t you say Zhao’er was very fond of it? Give it to her."

Recalling Little Black Cat rubbing against Zhao’er, you immediately refused and said to Xian Qianling, "Don’t underestimate this thing. You might as well take it with you when you’re on duty in the future. With it around, the Criminal Police Team won’t be approached by the average ghost or monster. If there’s any special case that comes up, don’t look for me, just take it with you to handle it."

Xian Qianling looked down at Little Black Cat in her arms, her eyes darting around before she nodded, "Alright, in that case, Little Mo will stay with me from now on."

"What’s that? Little Mo?"

"Yes, Mo as in ink." Xian Qianling lifted the cat in her arms up to the sunlight. Surprise, surprise, Little Black Cat’s fur was so lusterless that it was like a misty veil of black mist enveloping its coat.

Elder Sun took a particularly long look at Little Mo, squinting his eyes slightly, then turned to you and said, "Young man, I still don’t know your name."

"Oh, almost forgot."

You promptly took out a very plain business card from your pocket and formally handed it to Elder Sun. It wasn’t too complicated—just white paper with black text—Li Muyun, President of Supernatural Detective Agency, mobile number: >

Upon seeing your name, Elder Sun’s face naturally revealed a look of recognition, "Turns out you are Little Li, whom Qingming always mentions. Young man, to be so accomplished at such a young age, you’re sure to achieve great things."

"Heh heh, I’ll take your auspicious words, Elder."

While talking, you suddenly paused and then turned to glance at the building, smiling as you said, "Since everything has been settled, I won’t stick around any longer."

You snapped your fingers, and the Wu Xing Liumo Formation in the sky immediately crumbled, vanishing without a trace.

Saying so, you bowed to Elder Sun and got back into the car.

As the car started, Xian Qianling, carrying Little Mo, took her seat beside you in the passenger seat.

"Hey, what are you doing up here?"

Xian Qianling turned her head and looked at you naturally, "What do you mean, what am I doing? Do you see what time it is?"

Glancing at the time, oh, it was two o’clock.

"I haven’t had breakfast or lunch, and now my stomach’s empty. As a gentleman, shouldn’t you treat me to a meal?"
