The cat has an innocent expression on its face, just like an ordinary kitten.
"… "
"You can speak human language, right?"
Xue Jing spoke frankly and planned to have a good chat with the cat. What on earth was it, why could it talk, what was the platinum tail ring on its tail, how could one find the same thing, and why did such a magical talking cat fall to the point of being almost killed by the stray cat world.
However, the cat in front of me had an innocent expression on its face, as if it said "I don't understand what you are talking about", just like an ordinary cat with nothing special about it.
"Meow~~"
"Stop pretending, I heard everything, just speak properly."
"Meow?"
"Just tell me how much dried fish you want."
"Meow~"
The cat licked its paw and remained indifferent.
Xue Jing raised his eyebrows: "Are you pretending again?"
He placed the cat on his lap, one hand on the back of its neck and the other hand at the base of its tail.
This is one of the areas with the most dense nerves in a cat's body. Most cats like to be touched here and will involuntarily arch their backs to feel the pleasure.
Xue Jing's five fingers moved flexibly, scratching the fur at the base of the tail, and the little black cat's eyes widened instantly.
"Meow!!!"
It let out a cry that could almost be described as tragic, its hips involuntarily raised high, and its limbs began to struggle, but Xue Jing held its neck firmly, so it could not move, and could only meow continuously.
After a while, Xue Jing stopped what he was doing. The cat had given up struggling and was lying on Xue Jing's thighs, its whole body weak, its tongue hanging out, its eyes rolled up, and it was gasping for breath, looking like it had been played with.
However, even though it was tortured like this, it didn't say a word from beginning to end, and always acted like an ordinary little cat.
This made Xue Jing a little unconfident.
Could it be that the divine absorption on the skill panel has absorbed its ability to speak human language? Has it really become an ordinary little cat
If it hadn't let out a very loud meow after it woke up, Xue Jing would have really believed it.
But Xue Jing really had no way to deal with it.
As long as the cat doesn't intend to communicate with him honestly, he will just pretend. He can't really torture it to force it to speak.
Xue Jing had just benefited from someone else's kindness, and no matter how flexible his moral bottom line was, he would not do such a thing.
Shaking his head, he said, "Okay, let's do this for now. Are you hungry?"
The cat meowed weakly.
Xue Jing just thought it was hungry.
He put the cat on the sofa, then stood up, went to the kitchen to get a large bowl, came to the table, opened the supermarket bag, took out the bag of cat food, tore it open from the opening, and poured it into the bowl.
Putting the bowl full of cat food in front of the cat, Xue Jing thought that the cat, which must have suffered a lot in the stray cat world, would immediately show off.
Unexpectedly, the cat just glanced at the cat food in front of it, made a "tsk" sound, and turned its head away without hesitation, without even looking at it again.
"Um?"
Seeing this scene, Xue Jing suddenly felt something in his heart.
This reaction is... not right.
This doesn't seem like the reaction of a picky cat who dislikes the food because it's not tasty. It's more like... the thing in front of it is not even in its diet.
Xue Jing suddenly understood something as he had a flash of inspiration.
He may have misunderstood from the beginning.
The words that the cat had spoken earlier came to mind.
“I never thought… the world of stray cats… would be so cruel.”
There are two possibilities for the information contained in this sentence.
The first type is that it is a domestic cat that has never wandered outside, so it is not familiar with the world of stray cats.
It was because of hearing this sentence and thinking of this, coupled with the fact that it was so weak that it was bullied by stray cats, that Xue Jing subconsciously felt that it was essentially a cat, but for unknown reasons, it learned to speak human language.
But there is actually another possibility... The reason why it is not familiar with the world of stray cats and can speak human language is because it is not a cat at all, but some kind of creature that can speak human language and has transformed into the appearance of a cat.
The biggest possibility is... people.
Xue Jing narrowed his eyes, didn't say much, turned into the kitchen and started preparing dinner for today.
After he left the living room, Maomao, who was unaware that Xue Jing had already inferred a lot of information from her unintentional action, immediately stood up from the sofa.
It jumped to the ground, walked in cat-like steps, and silently came to the corner leading from the living room to the kitchen. It stealthily poked out half of its head, and secretly confirmed that Xue Jing was indeed cooking, then it breathed a sigh of relief.
"I didn't expect that he heard what I said earlier."
The cat was a little distressed, and turned its tail, looking up at the tail ring.
"GOD-1391 Cat Tail Ring... That bastard took so much money but didn't explain the specific effect of this divine relic clearly. Once you transform, you can't change back!"
The cat has a very anthropomorphic expression of gritting its teeth on its face.
After being furious for a while, Maomao collected his thoughts and looked at the environment of the house.
'This is a good place to hide. The security company won't think I've turned into a cat and am hiding in an ordinary person's home.'
Recalling the experience of being chased and bitten by various cats in the stray cats' territory, it shuddered.
"Just stay here until I get used to this divine relic and can change back to normal, then leave."
Maomao was thinking in his mind.
"But... in order not to involve this kind-hearted boy, let me be an ordinary cat."
It knows that if a kind person who is willing to take a strange talking cat home communicates with it and develops feelings for it, it will easily put them in danger.
Therefore, this possibility must be eliminated from the very beginning.
If there is no communication, there won't be too much involvement. When the time comes, it will just leave and disappear without a trace, and the two will never have any intersection again.
'Even though he has heard me talking, it doesn't matter, it's all his fantasy. Just let him think that he is just a cat-loving boy who loves cats so much that he has auditory hallucinations!'
"As long as I don't admit it and pretend to be an ordinary cat, no one can expose me!"
Having made up his mind, the cat nodded with satisfaction, and his tail stood up and swayed from side to side in excitement.
…
Xue Jing was busy in the kitchen for a long time and prepared three simple home-cooked dishes: spicy fried beef, bitter gourd scrambled eggs, and tomato and meat soup.

Xue Jing opened the refrigerator, took out the leftover rice from yesterday, filled two bowls with it, and heated it in the microwave. After it was heated up, he brought it all out and placed it on the dining table.
He didn't say anything, picked up one of the bowls of rice and started eating.
The cat, who had been hungry for two days and was trying to force himself to eat cat food, was stunned when he saw the delicious food on the table.
The aroma turned into an alluring little hand, pinching its nose and making it involuntarily move closer to the dining table, without even noticing that it had kicked over the bowl of cat food.
When it came to its senses, it found itself sitting at the dining table, with another bowl of white rice served by Xue Jing in front of it.
It turned its head awkwardly and found that the handsome boy was eating while looking at it with a half-smile in his eyes.
As if to say, are you pretending again

Xue Jing's almost mocking eyes made Maomao's face hurt a little, and he just wanted to jump off the table immediately, but his body would not listen to him.
"… "
After being silent for two or three seconds, it pretended not to understand Xue Jing's eyes at all, meowed, lowered its head, and took a bite of the white rice.
There are cats that eat whatever their owners eat. As an ordinary cat, it is reasonable and logical for it to eat the same thing as its owner. There is nothing strange about it.
I eat the same things as humans ≠ I am a human.
The cat who had convinced himself completely ignored Xue Jing's increasingly mocking look and started showing off!
First take a bite of rice, then pop out the claws and use them as chopsticks to pick out a piece of spicy fried beef from the plate, huh~huh~
Xue Jing looked speechlessly at the cat that was blowing air because it was afraid of getting its tongue burned.
After blowing a few times, the cat carefully put the beef into its mouth.
The delicious taste spread between the cat's lips, teeth and tongue. The cat, who had not eaten for two days, couldn't help but reveal a very anthropomorphic expression of bliss.
With the first bite into the mouth, the taste buds were activated, the stomach was opened, and the inner bottom line was completely broken. The cat sped up its eating speed, taking a bite of rice and then a bite of vegetables, eating happily.
Sometimes, I would eat too fast and not have time to blow out the air, and get burned, making a 'rua' sound.
"Eat slowly, I'm not trying to steal from you."
Xue Jing smiled helplessly, and seeing that it was having a hard time picking up the food with its claws, he helped it to pick up the food and put it into the bowl, so that it didn't have to use its claws and just had to eat. He also served it a bowl of broth full of meat.
By the time the meal was over, the dishes on the table were gone, with one third of them going into the cat's stomach. Considering its size, this was a pretty incredible appetite.
There was not even a grain of rice in the bowl as it had licked it all clean. The cat lay on its side on the table with its belly so round as if it was pregnant.
Xue Jing cleaned up the dishes, wiped the table, and washed his hands before he picked up the cat from the table and put it on the sofa.
Looking at the cat licking its paws like a human picking its teeth, Xue Jing coughed and said:
"Well, you've been completely exposed. Can we talk now?"
The cat's ears moved, and it stopped licking its paws. It looked at Xue Jing with an innocent face.
"Meow?"
I have no idea what you are talking about. After all, I am just a harmless little kitten.
"… "
"Why, you don't want to admit it after getting the free stuff, right?"
Xue Jing laughed angrily.
He stretched out his hands, pinched the cat's face, and started scratching its cheeks with his ten fingers.
This is also one of the parts of a cat that people like to touch the most, it feels very good.
"Meow~"
The cat immediately couldn't stand it anymore. It squinted its eyes at Xue Jing's actions and meowed with pleasure.
It has made up its mind anyway, so it just installs it.
As long as you don't talk and don't communicate, no problems will arise.
"… "
Seeing that it still refused to admit it, Xue Jing had no idea what to do for the time being.
"Forget it, go take a shower first."
Although I had washed it before, many parts of my body were dirty because I brought the cat home, and I also cooked some dishes that produced a lot of oil smoke, so my body was not clean at this time.
Thinking of taking a bath, Xue Jing glanced at the cat lying on the sofa, which had already made the sofa dirty. He moved the corners of his mouth, reached out and picked it up.
"Elbow, wash with me."
The cat was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he made a French salute with his paws, shook his head like a rattle, and his ears turned back into airplane ears.
“Meow meow meow meow!”
"Fuck you, you're going to take this bath, and even Jesus can't stop you, I say!"
