I was the fourth disaster in Yokohama and was loved by everyone.

The calico cat carefully tilted its head back and touched the tip of the black-haired girl's nose with its nose. The moonlight from outside the window scattered on the bed, casting a faint halo on the calico cat's fur. Even brighter was the gentle light that shone in the cat's eyes in the darkness.

Wow, what a heartwarming CG image!

Based on her experience collecting many CG images, the use of "CG" usually indicates that she experienced a special event with an NPC, or that her relationship with the NPC has progressed further.

In summary, more or deeper bonds were formed.

Sure enough, Mimi is the player's chosen pet; players have even created cutscenes with Mimi!

After browsing, the CGs are automatically added to the "CG Memoirs," which also includes CGs featuring Zhu Yu and many NPCs.

After turning off the memoir, Zhu Yu was in a good mood and chose to forgive the heartless cat, after all, they were also a bonded owner and pet!

She moved the calico cat to the head of the bed, nimbly climbed onto the bed, lay straight, clasped her hands together on her lower abdomen, and said peacefully, "Goodnight, Mimi."

Click "Rest".

[Players are taking a break...]

The screen went dark, and when it lit up again, the moon outside the window had been replaced by the sun.

After recovering her strength, Zhu Yu jumped out of bed, scooped up the drowsy calico cat, and went to work.

On the way, I entrusted the calico cat to Junsuke and rushed to make a batch of desserts before finally arriving at the Port Mafia building late.

"Good morning, Mr. Yamazaki." Zhu Yu greeted the passing NPC in a black suit.

"Good morning, Kawakami-san." The man in the black suit nodded, a smile appearing on his serious face.

"Good morning, Miss Miura." Zhu Yu noticed the kind NPC who often fed her.

"Ah, good morning, Kawakami." The older sister gave her a small cookie, patted her head, and left with a smile.

She chatted and exchanged pleasantries along the way, and it took her another half hour to finally reach her office.

Ah, the player is indeed the most popular Hong Kong gangster today! (smug)

After several months of hard work since joining the Port Mafia, she now has her own office.

Of course, a private office was out of the question. Originally, she was supposed to share an office with other members of the Ozaki faction, but Ozaki Koyo waved her hand and let Zhu Yu and Nakahara Chuuya work in her office as well, so the large office for executives was shared by the three of them.

"Good morning, Sister Hongye!" Zhu Yu spotted Sister Hongye maintaining her swords and rushed over, excitedly initiating a conversation.

"It's such a wonderful start to the day to see you so early in the morning~ Good morning, my little girl."

The sword in Ozaki Koyo's hand had just been serviced and gleamed with a cold light.

Seeing Zhu Yu approach, she quickly sheathed her sword. The moment she finished, the scabbard and the hilt collided, making a crisp and pleasant "click" sound.

Her cold and austere aura vanished the moment she sheathed the sword. She hung the sword at her waist, her eyebrows curving into a smile, the sleeve of her kimono half-concealing the smile on her lips.

When Ozaki Koyo looked over, she felt wet petals running down her cheeks, leaving winding marks on her body.

“You’re popular today too~” Ozaki Koyo teased.

She was well aware of Zhu Yu's popularity within the Port Mafia. Just the walk from the door to the office every morning, which should have taken five minutes, was stretched to more than half an hour because she had to enthusiastically interact with Port Mafia members.

"Everyone is very enthusiastic," Zhu Yu replied, obediently accepting Ozaki Koyo's daily morning head pat.

As Ozaki Koyo reached out and touched Zhu Yu's soft hair a few times, she felt a strange sensation on her fingertips—soft, yet with a slight resistance.

It has a different texture than regular hair; it's thicker.

She subconsciously rubbed her fingers together, and a few tiny hairs immediately stuck to her fingertips, shimmering with a golden light in the sunlight, and upon closer inspection, they were different colors.

The person in front of me seemed oblivious, still keeping their head slightly lowered, with more fine fluff visible in their hair, scattered on the surface of their clothes like dandelion down.

Ozaki Koyo's gaze followed the fluff, patiently brushing away the floating fluff: "Huh—why do you have so much cat hair on you? Do you have a cat?"

"Yes, my battle pet is named Mimi."

Because of Ozaki Koyo's reminder, Zhu Yu opened the panel and found that her "cleanliness" had decreased due to the large amount of cat hair stuck to her body.

But at least it didn't drop into negative numbers. She thought to herself, and then closed the panel.

Ozaki Koyo, who doubted whether she had misheard upon hearing the words "battle pet": ...

"Battle pets?" Sending pets to fight?

“Yes, Sister Hongye.” Zhu Yu nodded and said with a proud tone, “Mimi is no ordinary kitten; she can defeat any opponent in the interrogation team.”

The interrogation team is a special squad under Ozaki Koyo that is responsible for interrogation and torture. Although they are not as strong as the Port Mafia's "Black Lizard" squad, which is active on the front line of combat year-round, each member is still highly skilled.

They could beat up the entire interrogation team...

Really? Such an amazing cat!

Wait, are there really cats that powerful?

Ozaki Koyo fell into deep thought...

Although she didn't know if such a powerful cat really existed, Ozaki Koyo went along with her words: "If there is such a powerful cat, then I must see it for myself."

Cats like to lie in the sun and air out their fur, leaving a sun-kissed scent. Things that come into direct contact with sunlight are more likely to get burned.

Cats are such unpredictable creatures that you can't force them to behave or restrain them.

She never takes the initiative to approach or get close to cats.

At that moment, she picked up a cat hair stuck to the back of Zhu Yu's neck, lowering her eyes to conceal the turbulent emotions in her pupils. Cats are fragile, and if she could, she wished this child would never have to experience separation.

I just hope that the cat is really as strong as the little girl said.

Live a little longer, cat.

Looking up again, she had composed herself and chuckled as she reminded, "I wonder how old Mimi is? If she's due, you could consider getting her spayed."

sterilization?

Zhu Yu discovered a blind spot—so the pets in the game need to be spayed or neutered?!

The player was shocked and decided to go back and check whether Mimi was male or female.

She couldn't help but wonder: If Mimi had children, would she be very powerful? Would that mean players could have a group of super-powerful battle pets?

Players' solo battles will turn into group battles; with just one command from the player, the cat army will take over the entire Yokohama.

Players will become "Kami" in the Yokohama map!

Hahahaha! The player laughed heartily, hands on hips.

In the game, this translates to someone suddenly starting to jump around in place while displaying a strange smile.

Ozaki Koyo, who witnessed everything: ......

Ozaki Koyo closed her eyes briefly, then quickly pushed the person down onto the sofa and covered them with a thin blanket.

She comforted herself: the child must have just gotten tired and will be fine after a rest.

Coming to her senses, she found the game character had teleported to Zhu Yu on the sofa: ? ? ?

Chapter 54 As long as nothing unexpected happens~

Zhu Yu, her face full of resentment, manipulated the little man to go home.

After implementing the Stokka Plan again, she lost track of Dazai Osamu, whose evasion skills were perfect.

Why is he better at dodging than players with minimaps?

It is strongly recommended that the game mark the locations of NPCs on the map...

That wretched Dazai! Players will keep stalking you forever!

Zhu Yu drifted into the house like a ghost, and her listless appearance caught the attention of the calico cat.

The calico cat's amber eyes were filled with worry as it gently rubbed against her leg.

Zhu Yu was lost in thought when she suddenly noticed a cat with a name box on its screen. She was startled, but thankfully she didn't accidentally touch it this time, otherwise the poor cat would have suffered a serious blow from its owner.

Zhu Yu squinted, observing the elusive Mimi.

The calico cat had quietly returned to the room without making a sound, and she hadn't even noticed when it had approached.

In an instant, a thought flashed through her mind like lightning.

Her gaze toward Mimi grew increasingly intense, like two burning flames.

The calico cat, startled by the gaze, bristled with fur on its tail. Knowing the little girl as it did, it was certain that something shocking was about to happen.

The calico cat instinctively took a step back and then saw...

Zhu Yu, who had been standing still, turned and rushed into the bathroom, but a few breaths later she came out—but it wasn't her who emerged.

Instead, it is?!

A black and white cat ran towards the calico cat, stopping abruptly when it was very close. It then stood steadily in front of the calico cat, deliberately puffing out its white chest as if to say: "Praise me, even as a cat, I'm the most beautiful one."

The calico cat that witnessed the "cat transformation" suddenly straightened its whiskers as if it had been electrocuted, and its originally lazy, squinted eyes widened, with its pupils contracting sharply.

Now, not only the tail fur, but all the fur on his body has stood on end, turning him into an electrified dandelion.

The calico cat, or rather Natsume Soseki, the ability user whose special ability is called "I am a cat," suddenly began to wonder if Zhu Yu's special ability was also "I am a cat."

The calico cat's face vividly displayed the terror of "seeing a ghost" and the bewilderment of "who am I, where am I?" Under such a complex emotional impact, Natsume Soseki did not respond for a moment.

Zhu Yu was very dissatisfied. She pushed the calico cat with her paw and slowly walked around in front of Natsume Soseki, just to show off the cat's cool body from all angles.

Actually, the perspective didn't change much after she turned into a cat; all the objects on the screen just looked a bit bigger, but it didn't prevent her from performing some basic operations.

They can even use supernatural abilities.

Zhu Yu happily swished its tail, very satisfied with the effect of its prop.

【Cat Drowning Spring Water (Diluted Version): This cursed spring water originates from Zhouquan Township, Qinghai Province, China. It is cursed and will turn the user into a cat; contact with hot water will restore them to human form. The curse lasts for 24 hours. Please use with caution.】

The spring water that could turn you into a cat was stored in a mineral water bottle. It was a prop she found in a trash can. At the time, she thought it was just a prop that could turn you into a cat, not a very powerful one, so she didn't pay much attention to it and kept it at the bottom of her drawer.

I never thought I'd need it...

Sure enough, players can't live without trash cans (very loudly)

Another benefit of turning into a cat is that she can understand Mimi's speech.

"Hello, Mimi." This sentence automatically turned into a cat's meow.

Natsume Soseki was silent for a moment, then called out "Mi" in response – Hello to you too.

Zhu Yu got excited and kept pulling Natsume Soseki to communicate with him in cat language.

—"Meow meow meow"

“Mmm…” Natsume Soseki sighed helplessly.

—"Meow~ Meow meow!"

“…Mmm…” Natsume Soseki sighed.

After patiently replying several times... the calico cat's voice became hoarse.

The calico cat simply curled up, buried its head in its body, and covered its ears with its tail, making a gesture of "rejecting harassment."

Alright alright.

Zhu Yu nudged the calico cat with her paw, but received no response. Disappointed, she ran to the bathroom, soaked herself in hot water, transformed back into a human, and lay back on the bed to "rest."

Everything depends on tomorrow.

[Taking a break...]

*

Dazai Osamu skipped work early today.

Based on his patient prediction of a certain young lady, after repeatedly hitting a wall, she would definitely unleash her "ultimate move" today—she might even get Chief Mori to help her find him.

To avoid this possibility, he simply skipped work and left the Port Mafia building, wandering aimlessly through the streets of Yokohama.

Zhu Yu's schedule was easy for him to predict: during the day, he would go to the dessert shop first, then go to work at the Port Mafia, spending half his time on fieldwork and the other half at the Port Mafia building with Sister Hongye.

Although it's called an office, Sister Hongye lets her wander around the Port Mafia building. At this time, she'll enthusiastically help Port Mafia members who pass by with all sorts of things, from helping to capture targets to running errands to buy things. She enjoys it all.

He sometimes wondered what motivated her to act this way.

She clearly didn't lack thank-you gifts for helping complete tasks—mostly food and household items that weren't particularly expensive.
