Chapter 52 A Little Bit of Confession

While Lin Xiyue and Lingji were chatting for a short while, Lingyu had already told Liu Meng to rest and then left.

“He told a lot of lies, but the very first point should be true, which is that the evil ritual was found there. We should immediately send people to inspect all hospitals, yes, all over the country. Such a well-hidden place is just too insidious.”

Lingyu disinfected the area while speaking to Lingji.

Lingji mostly handles these matters that require contacting the authorities.

"Okay, but we need to finish cleaning up here first. Is that red wave that Liu Meng mentioned reliable? No one here has seen it."

Lingji noted these down and then asked the next question.

"In my opinion, he was telling the truth at that time, and his fear was undeniable. If he could fake that, then we cannot believe anything he said afterward. I will interrogate him again in a few days; his body cannot withstand too much interrogation right now."

Ling Yu frowned and wiped his face with his hand. Then he took off a mask, revealing that the seemingly ordinary face was actually an optical mask.

After removing his mask, it's clear that Ling Yu's face features are all exquisite, yet when combined, they create a bewitching effect. However, when he speaks, he has a deep, resonant voice, which feels completely disjointed.

"!!! ?)?Д?( ”

"W-what happened?! You...you...you!!! ヽ(;′Д`)?"

Lin Xiyue was stunned. She never expected that Ling Yu's ordinary face was actually a mask, and she never expected him to be so handsome. He was so handsome that she, a girl herself, felt embarrassed. He was too alluring.

"Oh, just necessary for interrogation. I'll be going now; the mission report will be delivered to you sometime today."

Lingyu didn't seem to like talking much, except for having to do his work. He gave a casual reply, said something to Lingji, and left.

"Then we'll be going too. We'll also give you the mission report today, Sister Lingji."

The person who had been quietly listening to everyone said something to Lingji before leaving.

"Hmm, everyone's left, should I go too?"

Lin Xiyue stood there feeling somewhat lost, since she didn't need to write a task report.

"Okay, your tent is B7. You can wander around the safe camp, but it's best not to go out, as there might be some survivors outside. You can't go back until this place is completely cleaned up and everyone has been disinfected and checked. However, the signal jamming has been turned off, so you can make a phone call to your family and friends."

Lingji could tell that Lin Xiyue really wanted to leave, so he gave her a few words of advice and let her go out to play.

"Okay~ Don't worry, Sister Lingji. (????)"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiyue happily waved to Lingji and carried Fugui out.

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

After leaving the camp, Lin Xiyue first found a quiet spot in the camp and sat down. Then, with a serious expression, she placed Fugui on the table in front of her, making sure that Fugui's line of sight was level with hers.

"Meow?"

The black kitten sat innocently on the table, tilting its head with an utterly innocent expression.

"!!!"

"Stop, stop acting cute! I... I know you understand me. (`ー′)"

Despite the cat's adorable antics, Lin Xiyue tried her best to stick to her principles and had a proper talk with him. However, it seemed difficult, after all—what bad intentions could the cat possibly have?

"Meow~ Aww~"

The cat lay down, its paws tucked inside, its eyes wide as it stared at you, meowing softly.

! ! ! !

"?! You! You! No, I can't let you get away with this. You need to explain yourself. Why are you in here? Shouldn't you be at home?!"

Lin Xiyue said this, but her body involuntarily lunged forward and hugged the cat.

Humans vs. cats.

KO!

Humanity has been utterly defeated!

ORZ

Lin Xiyue, who involuntarily knelt down in her heart for her soft heart, still insisted on being stubborn and demanded an explanation from Maomao.

"I know you're smart, so type it out, or draw it. Explain to me how you got to such a dangerous place."

No matter what Lin Xiyue did, she remained firm in her words, determined to get to the bottom of things.

As Moros watched Lin Xiyue open the terminal's notepad in front of him, he hesitated whether to play dumb and cover it up, when he heard Lin Xiyue's leisurely voice reach his ears.

"I think any cat that watches the TV series 'Seven Babies in One Birth: The Genius Baby Shocks and Makes the Heirless CEO Regret It' must also be able to write!"

"Meow! Meow! Awooo! Awooo!~~"

He heard the name of this TV series again. Meros was on the verge of death; he thought he was over, but he never expected to hear it again. Even though it was Shadow Cat watching this series, it was still a part of him!

"Okay, okay, I won't talk about this anymore. But you also need to tell me why you're here~ ┐( ̄ヮ ̄)┌"

Lin Xiyue looked at the little cutie who kept punching her arm like a cat, and couldn't help but smile and take another step back.

"Meow-"

After thinking it over, Moros decided to confess part of the truth to Lin Xiyue. After all, if he kept it a secret and she found out later, he might not have a wife anymore.

With that in mind, Meros began typing on the terminal.

[I can only tell you what you can know right now. I'm here to reclaim my power. A portion of my power was taken by my enemy and placed on that tumor-like monster. I sensed it, so I've come to take it back.]

Lin Xiyue wasn't particularly surprised as she watched Meros type out those words on the terminal, word by word. After all, she already knew he was extraordinary after learning that he could command a group of cats.

"Okay. Then you must tell me first next time, and we'll do it together, okay? We're family and friends, right?"

Lin Xiyue thought about it and decided that she still wanted to face these dangers with her cat. It was her first friend and family member since she came into this world.

"Meow~"

Meros nodded, then continued typing.

I will tell you.

"So, do you have your own name? Can you tell me what it is?"

Lin Xiyue asked Molos seriously.

"Just call me Mo."

Moros still didn't give Lin Xiyue a pseudonym.

"Okay, I'll call you Amo. Let's go and see the tents we've been assigned! This is my first time living in a tent!"

After chatting briefly with Molos, Lin Xiyue happily hugged Molos and headed towards the tent assigned to her.
