Transmigrating into a 90’s Cat, I Want to Work for My Home Country

Professor Wen thought about it again and again, pondered again and again: “Vice Captain Guo, what we saw just now… were snub-nosed monkeys, right? Right?”

Professor Wen believed that he could still do some salvaging, he was afraid that what happened just now was an imaginary dream.

Just now, he had tentatively tried to get the box of cultural relics that Xiao Fang regarded as a treasure, but he was rejected like he was a thief.

Xiao Fang had subconsciously raised up his guard: “Professor Wen, what’re you doing?”

At that moment, Professor Wen had pushed up his round frame glasses and replied politely: “I was afraid that I was dreaming, so I wanted to try it.”

“You can pinch yourself.”

“I’m afraid of pain.” Professor Wen said it confidently.

It was Guo Chao Ming’s second time hearing Professor Wen asking questions like these, he muttered things in his heart, and glanced at Professor Wen with a strange gaze.

Professor Wen thought that it was weird, but Guo Chao Ming suspected that it was done by a certain cat. The tiger that was lying outside of the campsite, the cat that had disappeared, the monkeys that delivered the merchandise to their door… a rare combination, only a cat could connect them all together, plus, Bai Xia Xia also knew about the matter of the cultural relics…

Guo Chao Ming scolded himself for thinking ridiculously while also believing with certainty— —It was definitely what the cat did behind my back.

It has even learned to do good deeds without leaving behind its name.

After all, other than that cat, who could help like a ghost spirit. Who else could call monkeys to bring back the box??

No matter what Guo Chao Ming thought about it, he would never expose Bai Xia Xia, so he intentionally jested and poked fun to fool, “Professor Wen, if the prescription of your glasses isn’t appropriate, how about changing it for yourself.”

“If they were not snub-nosed monkeys, what were they?”

He can’t even identify snub-nosed monkeys, there’s no need for this professor, let’s throw him away fast.

“Rest for ten minutes, we’ll return to the base.”

Since the cultural relics had been found, there was no need to continue staying in the perilous uninhabited region.

Guo Chao Ming sat with his knees bent up, with both of his hands hugging his knees, Xiao Fang, who was across him, was happy like a fool— —I won’t be reprimanded anymore.

These days, all types of news flew everywhere. Everything that could be said was said, which exasperated Xiao Fang greatly.

We’ve finally gotten it back, he did not dare to let go, being extremely careful as if he was holding a kid.

When Guo Chao Ming saw the box, he remembered Bai Xia Xia again. That cat that’s unbelievably smart… In his daze, he seemed to have heard a familiar, reserved, and that deserved a spanking: “Meow~”

Guo Chao Ming moved his ears, the Persian cat, which was sticking out its head and looking around, had popped out its cute and round head from the side of Guo Chao Ming’s waist; its paws hooked on to Guo Chao Ming’s combat uniform belt that had been tied tightly, fiddling with it.

Guo Chao Ming: I’m not dreaming?

Moving like lightning, he caught the criminal cat that was stealing his military use canteen on the spot.

“Meow~” The cat that was held by the life-defining back of its neck meowed unhappily, the camouflaged face of the young military official revealed a big and bright smile; he fiddled with her white paws that were drooping down vertically, playing with the left one and then the right one, enjoying left and right excitedly: “Stealing things is a crime, do you know?”

“I announce, you’ve raided a military officer and have been caught.” Guo Chao Ming: “I sentence you to twenty years in prison, when the time comes, we’ll just jail you in my place, to serve a supervised sentence!”

“Do you submit?”

“My case was an unsuccessful attempt at committing a crime!” White Meow resisted but was forcefully made to nod by comrade Guo Chao Ming who pressed on her small head, “Very well. Seeing that you’re changing because you know your wrongs, and for daring to admit your mistakes, your sentence will be reduced by five years.”

Bai Xia Xia: Cat laugh.

The cat was forced to cooperate with Guo Three Years Old’s act: I’m bearing a burden that I shouldn’t have had to bear at my age.

Bai Xia Xia shook off Guo Three Years Old, her fluffy tail waved left and right; the kitty stood up like a human, with its fore limbs pressing on Guo Chao Ming’s belt, and hooked on the military use canteen.

You naïve being, I’ve played with you, it’s time to give Cat her pay.

The tiny cat kept its small head buried, leaving out only the back of its round head and its small ears; it was focused on working with its head lowered.

Bai Xia Xia: Diligent cats are the cutest.

And so, she was once again sneakily kissed on her fluffy small head.

The kitty’s heterochromatic eyes were wide open, it turned back its head to fiercely scowl at the pervert that had once again kissed her sneakily.

It was completely unaware, that a certain person’s filthy palm had completely rubbed dirty Bai Xia Xia’s remaining clean fur.

The cat was focused and dedicated to its job, Guo Chao Ming was like a kid with ADHD that insisted on disturbing the other person, making the cat feel extremely annoyed, only wanting to give him a death dealing slap.

“Get up!”

Guo Chao Ming poked the cat’s rosy meat pads that had sharp claws sticking out of them; he showed her an opened military use tin: “I just want to ask you if you’re hungry.”

“Having been in the mountain for a day, you must be hungry, right?” Guo Chao Ming was not going to admit that he was intentionally teasing the cat.

“I’m not hungry!” The Persian cat extremely fiercely bared its teeth with bristling fur, its tail was raised high, putting on a posture of scratching you to death if you disturbed it again, then it continued fighting with the military use canteen.

Guo Chao Ming persevered in his efforts[1]: “Do want to drink water?”

“Let me touch?”

“…”

On the other side, Xiao Fang and the other team members silently watched the Vice Captain Guo that was much ‘livelier’ than in the past.

Team Member A: “Captain Guo really deserves a beating; he’s asking for the cat’s hate ah!”

“Captain Guo…” Team Member B: “You can’t even let go of a cat…” That’s going too far.

Look at that cat, it looks very much like it’s working diligently but is always being disturbed… there seems to be something wrong.

Normally speaking, isn’t it always the poop shovel officers working diligently, and the cats who insist on playing with you?

Now look at the cat that’s working hard, and Guo Chao Ming who insists on disturbing…

“Eh, did that cat become dirtier?” Xiao Fang, who was holding the box, asked doubtfully; when Bai Xia Xia came, her body had some dust on it, but it was not as dark as now.
