Chapter 775: Is this human being a devil?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A black sheriff cat sat uneasily in a metal cage. Beside him were other supercats whose thoughts filled his mind.

“What shall I do? What shall I do?”

“We are doomed once we are captured by the Headless Horseman!”

“I heard he likes to play with cats. We will surely be played to death.”

After hearing the panicky thoughts of the nearby cats, the black sheriff supercat shook his head and shut off his superpower. He felt better when all was quiet.

An obese black and white cat came to the cage and sized him up before saying, “Are you sheriff? The mind reading supercat?”

The black sheriff supercat looked intensely at Roly Poly and listened to his thoughts.

Roly Poly thought, “If you listen to my thoughts, I will torture you to death.”

“Well...” The sheriff said reluctantly, “Yes, I am. Though I can read minds, I don’t usually use it as it affects my quality of life.”

“You are wise. Knowing too many things will shorten your life.” Roly Poly nodded and opened the cage as he said, “Follow me. My boss wants to see you.” As the sheriff walked out of the cage, Roly Poly reminded him, “Be smart. Don’t offend my boss otherwise you will suffer.”

The sheriff nodded and said, “I understand.” His eyes rolled around as he listened to Roly Poly’s thoughts.

Roly Poly thought, “He is pretty smart. Well, I didn’t expect Matcha to gain the favor of the supercats by inviting them to a sumptuous meal. Previously, he was only interested in playing Mobile Legends. This is going to be difficult for me...”

The sheriff quivered his ears and asked warily, “How should I address you?”

“This cat will be placed in an important position by Zhao Yao.” Roly Poly looked askance at the sheriff and said, “Call me Master Roly.”

The sheriff complimented Roly Poly, “Master Roly, you look quite gentlemanly. Though you are young, you look impressive and powerful. I suppose you are one of the highly regarded supercats of the Headless Horseman?”

Roly Poly frowned and said, “Yes, indeed.” He was flattered and he thought happily, “Good lad, he is able to see my qualities beneath my thick fur. With such a glib tongue, he will... have a bright future.”

The sheriff scoffed at Roly Poly in his heart but he blinked his eyes and asked innocently, “Master Roly, why am I being summoned? I am new and ignorant so I need your guidance, Master Roly. I will be very grateful to you.”

Roly Poly looked surprised as they walked into the Extradimensional Belly. Roly Poly said, “Let me give you some advice so that you won’t die here accidentally.

“Thank you, Master Roly.”

Roly Poly said slowly, “You have seen the place. There are more cats than humans. The most important and powerful person here is the Headless Horseman, Master Zhao.”

Roly Poly raised and clasped his paws in the direction of Zhao Yao. “Master Zhao cares for all cats and possesses the power to move both Heaven and Earth. We depend on him for a living. If you want to survive, you have to love and respect him.

I am giving you a word of wisdom. You have to remember this in your heart. Heaven is great and the Earth is large but neither compare to Master Zhao. Do you understand?”

“Oh...” The sheriff nodded and said, “I understand, thank you, Master Roly, for your advice.”

“Don’t mention it. I am worried that you are green, overestimate yourself and will offend Master Zhao. Then I will be concerned with you.”

Roly Poly swayed his head and said, “Remember what I am about to tell you. Besides Master Zhao, you cannot antagonize Lady Zhao and Steward Bai. Lady Zhao is Master Zhao’s blood sister. She has the ability to transform into a cat that only Master Zhao is allowed to touch and cuddle. Previously a few people tried to touch her and were severely punished by clearing night soil that is at least 30 meters high.”

Roly Poly pointed at the nearby Midnight and Lang Gou who were working hard clearing night soil.

The sheriff pitied them and nodded as he said, “I will remember. When I see female cats, I will not touch them.”

Roly Poly nodded and said slowly, “Steward Bai is Master Zhao’s most trusted man. Most of his assets are managed by Steward Bai. You must not antagonize him.”

The sheriff nodded wildly.

Roly Poly continued saying, “Let’s talk about cats. In Cat Nation, there are six sections and their leaders are the elite supercats that you cannot afford to offend. Look over there, those criminals who kidnapped Matcha are going through their tribulations.”

The sheriff turned his head and saw Matcha shoving Speedy into the ice shaver machine. He felt a cold shiver as he thought, “The cats here are terrifying!!”

“I understand.” He nodded and said, “Master Roly, you are so smart and capable, you must be one of six sections’ leaders.”

“Hehe, you are observant.” Roly Poly said, “The Royal Cat Police Force, one of the six sections, is led by me. We hold the responsibility of watching over hundreds of cats.” Roly Poly laughed arrogantly and said, “Besides the six sections...”

His eyes turned and he saw Milk Tea playing with the toy rat nearby. He laughed merrily and said to him, “Milk Tea, are you playing by yourself? Why isn’t Matcha with you?”

Milk Tea glanced at Roly Poly and ran away with his toy rat, thinking, “Brother Matcha told me not to play with this fat cat as he will lead me astray.”

Seeing Milk Tea run away, Roly Poly’s face turned grave and he said, “Why is Matcha so lucky to have a son?” He sighed silently. “Since Matcha had a son, Zhao Yao showed him some favor. Could this be a grandfather’s love for his grandson? Perhaps Matcha gained favor by having a successor and Zhao Yao is less worried about him? Why don’t I have a son too?”

Although the sheriff activated his mind reading, he pretended not to hear anything. However, he thought, “It is not easy to survive in the Headless Horseman’s Cat Nation. There are so many supercats. They scheme against each other and their methods are extremely ruthless. This is going to be much more tiring than my time with the gangsters.”

Roly Poly walked with the sheriff and showed him around. After leaving the Extradimensional Belly, they went into Cat Wonderland to meet Zhao Yao.

There were luxurious fittings and numerous supercats strolling about Cat Wonderland. The sheriff gaped like a country bumpkin and tripped over Roly Poly.

“Don’t act like a country bumpkin.”

The sheriff composed himself and said with astonishment, “Master Roly, where are we? Why is the renovation looking so slick? Why are there so many supercats?”

“This is Millionaire’s Cat Wonderland. It belongs to Master Zhao.” Roly Poly grabbed the sheriff by the neck and dragged him to Zhao Yao’s office upstairs.

Before entering the office, they saw Lucifer, whose body was lacking in good fur, slowly crawling out. He was moaning and left a trail of blood in his path.

The sheriff asked Roly Poly in shock, “Roly Poly, this cat...”

“He is called Lucifer and is one of Master Zhao’s favorite play cats.” Roly Poly said telepathically.

“Play?” Seeing the moaning and crawling Lucifer, the sheriff shivered in fear. He looked at the office door and a great sense of terror arose in him. “The Headless Horseman is a pervert!!”

Lucifer crawled around the corner as the sheriff looked on with terror and sympathy. After crawling for a few meters, Lucifer stood up intact and walked off with a satisfied face.

Roly Poly brought the sheriff into the office and gave a flattering smile to Zhao Yao as he said, “Zhao Yao! I have brought the cat.”

The sheriff looked behind the office desk and saw a human figure hidden in the shadows cast by the sofa. The shadows seemed to absorb all the light and obscured Zhao Yao’s face.

The sheriff activated his mind reading superpower to listen to his thoughts. He was immediately overwhelmed by pervading dark shadows as though black ink had been poured into clear water. Images of cuddling cats, pinching cats, beating cats, torturing dogs, blackmail, smuggling catmint, extortion, robbery, murder, bullying flashed by and stunned the sheriff for a long while.

“Is there such evil in this world? Is this human being the devil?”
