Chapter 122: Tom Gets a Well-Deserved Beating
May 20th, 6:00 AM.
"Beep beep beep beep beep beep!!!" As the clock struck 6:00, the alarm immediately went off.
Bai Song, who was still sound asleep in bed, furrowed his brows upon hearing the annoying sound. He reached out with both hands and pressed the ends of the pillow against his ears, trying to block out the noise.
After a few seconds, it seemed that the alarm, realizing that Bai Song had no intention of waking up, decided to remind him even louder, urging him to quickly get out of bed before he missed out on free breakfast at the beach amusement park!
"Beep beep beep beep beep beep!!!" This time, the piercing sound of the alarm managed to penetrate through the pillow and directly into Bai Song's ears, causing his expression to change instantly.
Still in a daze, Bai Song transformed his left hand into a chopping motion and forcefully brought it down on the alarm clock positioned to his left.
"Bang!" Bai Song's fist instantly collided with the metallic alarm clock, splitting it into two halves with a single strike. If it weren't for witnessing it firsthand, many would have thought the alarm clock had been cleaved in half by an axe.
After Bai Song's strike, it was evident that the alarm clock's life had come to an end. It could no longer produce even the slightest sound, only faint electrical crackling confirmed its previous "existence."
"Mmm~" Feeling the return of tranquility, Bai Song, still half-asleep, displayed a satisfied smile. He shifted his body to the right and comfortably settled back into sleep.
However... just as Bai Song was about to sink back into deep slumber, he suddenly seemed to remember something. In the blink of an eye, his drowsy eyes shot open!
Gazing at the dimly lit window, Bai Song immediately realized that it was already time. "Oh crap! It's morning?!"
Upon realizing this, Bai Song didn't make any attempt to linger in bed. While staying in bed might be incredibly comfortable when indulging in laziness, and even have a forbidden thrill if one is a student with classes to attend, Bai Song couldn't afford such luxuries. His goal was of utmost importance!
He was here to save the world. To ensure the world's salvation, he needed to have a full meal. Not only that, but he also had to ensure his cats, dogs, and mice were well-fed. Therefore, he couldn't miss the opportunity for a free meal!
After getting dressed, Bai Song prepared to leave immediately. However, as soon as he got out of bed, he noticed the alarm clock on the left bedside table split in half. Bai Song's fists clenched involuntarily. His suspicion told him that Tom or Jerry must have been responsible for breaking the clock!
"Tom..." Feeling the anger rising within him, Bai Song was about to call the cat and the mouse, but he stopped himself after uttering just one word. "Forget it, I'm running late today." Bai Song took a few deep breaths, although he felt a bit irritated, he ultimately chose to forgive the cat and the mouse. That's what you call magnanimity!
After calming his emotions and tidying himself up, Bai Song pushed open the door of his room, ready to call the cat, mouse, and dog downstairs. He had looked at the map of Fuyuki City's location in the beach amusement park last night on Ryuunosuke's computer. According to the map, the southern part of Fuyuki City was the coastline, and it was about two to three kilometers east along the road.
It wasn't too far, but it wasn't exactly close either. However, compared to running hundreds of miles to another city, this was within Bai Song's acceptable range. Smiling, he descended the stairs and just as he reached the first floor, Bai Song was about to call his cat, dog, and mouse.
Then, Bai Song smiled as he saw... a large iron pot flying towards him.
"Bang!!!" The iron pot landed perfectly on Bai Song's face, without the slightest deviation, as if it had been waiting specifically for him to show up. Feeling something stuck to his face, Bai Song hurriedly tried to remove it but couldn't budge it. "Wuwuwu~!!!"
Jerry, the intended target of the attack, quickly fled. Meanwhile, Tom, who had thrown the frying pan, got scared and his soul promptly escaped from his body. Tom decisively took action, stepping on his own soul's tail and grabbing it, then stuffing it back into his body. Laughing, he realized that if his soul ran away, he would be the only one who would get beaten, and that would be quite unfair.
After putting his soul back into his body, Tom swiftly arrived at Bai Song's location, climbed onto Bai Song's body, and planted his feet on Bai Song's shoulders. He grabbed the sides of the frying pan and forcefully pulled it off.
"Gugugugu... plop~~~" Finally, after a sound resembling a plunger being pulled out of a toilet, the frying pan was successfully removed by Tom.
"Whoosh~" Tom jumped down from Bai Song's shoulder and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
"...Tom!" Bai Song rubbed his sore face and shouted with anger. It was bad enough that his alarm clock was broken in the morning, and he had tolerated it to enjoy some freebies. But now, Tom dared to kick him in the face, targeting his handsome face! It had only been a few days since they last fought, and Tom was already causing trouble. If he didn't teach it a lesson now, things might escalate to the point of blowing up the house!
Upon hearing Bai Song's angry shout, Tom was frightened and quickly stood up straight, with hands and legs together, chest out, and head held high. If one ignored the scared expression on its face, it looked like a standard military posture.
Bai Song didn't say a word, just stood with one hand on his hip and extended his right hand.
Seeing Bai Song's gesture, Tom couldn't help but gulp and tremble as it pointed to the frying pan in its left hand and looked at Bai Song with a questioning expression. Bai Song simply nodded.
Tom thought to itself, "Just as I expected, my owner is cunning... I mean, smart. He will definitely teach me a lesson!" Tom took a deep breath and reluctantly handed the frying pan to Bai Song. Its left hand was shaking as if it had Parkinson's disease.
After Bai Song received the frying pan with his right hand, he smiled at Tom and patted its head with his left hand. Seeing this, Tom suddenly felt like maybe it wouldn't get punished after all?
Suddenly, its tense inner self relaxed.
"Smack!" However, in that instant, Bai Song pressed Tom's head with his left hand, turning it in a different direction, and swiftly smacked the frying pan on Tom's buttocks, sending Tom flying away!
"Owww!!!!" During the process of being flung away, Tom felt incredibly sad. It was truly fed up with this troublemaker!
