Qin Xiao guessed that the cat had probably been stifled for too long and wanted to go out for a walk.

Stopping the Guo Chao Ming that wanted to hug back the cat to rua, Qin Xiao said: “Come back to eat lunch.”

It was as if he was instructing a small kid that was crazily running about, “Don’t cause trouble for the doctors, play here in the hospital.”

Bai Xia Xia waved her tail, counting it as a reply, and casually walked along the corridor while looking left and right; the design of the hospital was a bit odd, she searched for half a day before finding the narrow stairway.

The inside was very dirty, the little cat that walked while sticking to the corner of the wall disappeared into the darkness, four jiojio[1] stepped past the stairs.

The first and second floor of Tong City Military Region Hospital had people placed especially to guard, there were special hospital rooms for governmental officials and military men to recuperate, and only those with a state rank could live in them.

From the third floor onwards were the rooms for general patients to live in, Bai Xia Xia had imagined herself as a police officer, guessing about Li Ai Guo’s plan.

Old Liao and the other people had capital felonies on them, so the possibility of escaping from the hospital could not be denied.

People came and went in the hospital, and the personnel was mixed, unless they completely blocked entrances and exits, it would be very difficult to guard against other things.

Out of consideration for safety, they should have placed them on the second floor, to reduce the risk of the criminals escaping.

Bai Xia Xia guessed that Li Ai Guo probably wanted to use Old Liao as a bait to fish.

She did not believe that smuggling gangs could have such big guts, to be willing to risk their life for their accomplices and come save people while bearing such great danger.

Unless, the three people had a reason for which they had to be saved.

Bai Xia Xia felt that it was not possible, Li Ai Guo thought deeper and farther than her. There had to be other things taken into consideration, something that she had not thought about.

Yesterday, she had experienced Li Ai Guo’s strong logical thinking ability, and she had also heard Song Bei mention Li Ai Guo’s abundant achievements.

She felt that, just looking at the simple plot, Li Ai Guo could become a suspense plot male lead just by changing his name. For example, Li Ye? Using Song Bei’s words, Li Ai Guo was naturally fit to be in this line of work[2].

Some people did not have to study, immediately after starting, they would know how to investigate a case, how to check a suspect.

Wild Cat Xia ran up to the fourth floor in one breath without panting, she shook her paws that had stepped on dust, shaking them left and right in dislike, jiojio grinding the ground.

The hallway was filled with a choking smell of dust, Bai Xia Xia once again rubbed her paws against the white walls, and after carefully making sure that her paws were clean, she gallantly and full of vigor started working with her tail held high.

“407, 407…”

The cat walked through the noisy hallway, pacing and stopping, the roof outside of the corridor was full of clothes and quilts drying under the sun, the multiple colors blocked the distant sky.

The rooms here were all four-people rooms, talking sounds floated through the door and into the ear.

Very quickly, Bai Xia Xia found her target, because room 407 was particularly quiet in the noisy corridor, not even a bit of sound was there.

The snow-white Persian cat stopped at the door of ward 407, looking left and right; an old granny that was tremblingly carrying a red thermos flask came out from the next ward.

The elder’s eyesight was not very good, and she did not see that there was a cat at the bottom.

Bai Xia Xia smoothly jumped and turned the doorknob, turned over and used her small body, and closed the door with a ‘pa-da’.

The soldiers in charge of guarding Old Liao had not changed, one person had gone to rest, two people holding guns were sitting at the end of the bed, their posture seemed relaxed, but the reality was that they were relaxed on the outside, but tense on the inside, immediately after hearing a sound, the two practically turned their heads at the same time, holding the gun with one hand, “?”

“???” There’s no one??

Li Wen and Zhao Zi Bin’s line of sight moved down; the beautiful Persian cat’s tail that was previously raised had swiftly hung on the floor after entering.

Dragging its tail, the fluffy cat face was cute and soft. It harmlessly blinked its cat eyes at them, lifting its white paw and waving it up and down like a lucky cat[3], “Meow~” Hiya.

Lucky cat figurine

“We met each other yesterday! You don’t remember me already ?” Bai Xia Xia knew that her cat eyes were unusual enough, so she got close and acted spoiled intentionally, with her tail slightly raised.

Old Liao and the other two heard movements and sat up too, Zhao Zi Bin immediately turned his body sideways in an alerted state; Li Wen was a very energetic little fellow, he, who was a scout from his roots, instantly recognized Bai Xia Xia: “Cat?”

“It’s me! Yo, this boy has good prospects!” The snow-white Persian cat meowed as if it was replying, happily trotting to the side of Zhao Zi Bin’s leg, whose attitude had softened, her long tail clung to his trousers, gently circling around once.

“…it’s really it?”

Zhao Zi Bin slightly hesitated, the truth was, he did not remember well the appearance of that cat that had saved Captain Qin. At that time, when he had come over with Colonel Song, Bai Xia Xia was a small bundle of dirty gray.

He could roughly discern that it was a Persian cat; the breed of the cat in front is the same, and its fur color matches. There probably shouldn’t be such a coincidence, for two Persian cats to appear at the same time.

Even so, it can’t be that this cat has run here to visit a patient, right? Li Wen hit his head, the corner of his mouth twitching: What nonsense am I thinking! This isn’t a supernatural story!

But looking at this cat’s familiar attitude… I heard that when cats catch mice, they like to play with their prey, is this a case of it remembering the prey that it had scratched and coming to see how miserable he is? Cough, cough… Zhao Zi Bin said to Li Wen, “It’s that cat.”

“How did it run over here?” Captain Qin’s ward is on the second floor, this cat was even able to precisely find us.

Li Wen …it’s f*cking paranormal!

They were somewhat surprised, thinking that it was interesting. Zhao Zi Bin softly stroked the Persian cat, the touch was soft and warm, Bai Xia Xia did not avoid it.

— —I’m relying on them to protect me in a moment, let’s first get a round of good impression.

The soft and obedient appearance, it was completely different from the big boss appearance in 212. In conclusion, if Xiao Guo Zi saw it, he would want to hit Cat!

Translator’s notes:

[1] Jiojio is a way of saying ‘foot’ in Chinese. It was written in the raws exactly as stated.

[2] The author used ‘this bowl of rice’, but ‘bowl of rice’ is used to say ‘work (noun)’ in Chinese.

[3] A lucky cat, or maneki-neko, is a Japanese figurine of a cat with its paw raised in a beckoning gesture. It is believed to bring good luck to the owner of the figurine. It’s used popularly in China, so much that people tend to mistake it as having originated from China (the translator, I, also thought so until Wikipedia said otherwise). The translation of its name in Chinese is ‘wealth inviting cat’.
