[Net King] My Family Trace Department Meow

Sanaki Xing used a towel to absorb the water in her hair until it was half dry, then filled a whole bottle of milk, and finally returned to her room satisfied.

When the door was opened, a boy with purple-gray hair was sitting at her desk.He crossed his legs, put the book on his knees, and rested his hands on the edge of the table, resting on his temples.The shadow of his eyelashes covered his eyes, making it difficult to see clearly, as if he was seriously reading the book in his hand.

Maki Xing walked over curiously, bent down to look at the cover of the book, "Are you interested in this too?"

What Atobe read was the professional book she had thrown on the bed before, which recorded the habits and characteristics of various common animals.Maki Xing glanced at it, as if it was the page about cats.

"In order to better understand my current body?" the girl teased.

"You don't have any other types of books to read here." After closing the book, Atobu stood up from the seat, "Are you still asleep?"

As soon as the words fell, Maki Xing yawned very appropriately: "Well, I'm going to sleep. Are you going to sleep? I'll get you a quilt—"

"Go to bed first, I'll go out for a walk."

San Muxing blinked: "You don't plan to sleep on the sofa again, do you? Dad will find out..."

"My uncle will be back!"

After being looked at suspiciously, Atobe stared back gloomily, and walked straight towards the door.

Looking at the half-closed door, Maki Xing couldn't help touching her cheek.

What is Atobe doing so fast?

Could it be... was she thrown out of the psychological shadow yesterday?

Thinking of yesterday's embarrassment, Maki Xing quickly got into the quilt.

As long as she can fall asleep before Atobe comes back, the situation like yesterday will definitely not happen again!

Knowing that he is now using the body of a cat, Atobe's steps are subconsciously lighter.

He quietly came to the second floor, looking at the place where there was a ray of light in the corridor, he leaned against the wall and leaned carefully.

Through the crack of the door, Atobe saw Mamoru Shinaki with his back to him, leaning over the table to record today's accounts-this is what Mamoru Shinaki, as the director of the garden, does every night.

Maki Mamoru is serious and focused, and nothing seems to affect him.

If it weren't for the scene where he had a conversation with the black cat ten minutes ago, Keigo Atobe might have thought that he had found the wrong person.

"It's been more than 20 years...you are still alive, you are not an ordinary cat."

A moment ago, Atobe, who was hiding behind the tree, heard Maki Mori whispering in ecstasy.

The black cat in front of Maki Mamoru did not respond to him.

From the perspective of Atobe, you can see the appearance of the black cat: the black cat, which is funny and hateful when facing him, but obediently widens its eyes when facing Shoushi Maki, with an ignorant and dazed look.It means "I don't know you".

Its attitude made Mamoru hesitate: "Isn't it? But these eyes..."

Mamoru Maki squatted down, trying to get closer to confirm.As if startled by his invasion, the black cat stood on tiptoe and took half a step back, ready to run away.

Seeing this, Maki Mamoru sighed in disappointment: "You really are not it."

Mamoru took a few steps back, looked at the black cat whose tail was still blown, and comforted him: "Are you hungry? I'll go get you some cat food."

It wasn't until Mamoru Maki left completely that the black cat said coolly: "Come out."

"You know him, so... you turned me into a cat to repay the Shinaki family?"

Atobu rested his fingers on the center of his eyebrows, and his tone gradually became firm.

But why was he chosen?

Hearing Atobe's question, the black cat paused in licking its forelegs, and then gave him a meaningful glance, "Knowing too much is not good."

Atobe took a step forward, approached the black cat, and said firmly, "As an innocent person implicated, I have the right to know the whole story."

"I do owe him something."

The black cat turned its head sideways, with the reflection of the crescent moon in its pupils, it jumped lightly in front of Atobe, and the golden crescent moon in its eyes gradually became round and full.

"But... I'm in a hurry now, I'll tell you next time."

These were the last words he heard before he passed out.

When he woke up again, he returned to Maki Xing's room.

After hiding outside the door of Maki Mori and watching for a while, he didn't find any useful information.

Stretching his stiff shoulders, Atobe leaned against the wall, silently guessing when Maki Xing fell asleep, the rustling sound inside the door made him turn his head.

Mamoru Maki stood up, stretched himself, put the ledger into a drawer, and then took out a photo album from another drawer.

Atobe squinted his eyes, trying to see the contents of the album clearly, and moved his neck forward unconsciously.

"Kyoko's cat?" From the corner of his eyes, Maki Mori caught a glimpse of the furry mass outside the crack of the door, and faced him across the door, "Is it called... Atobe?"

The door in front of him was suddenly pushed open, and it was too late to escape, Atobe could only stay where he was.

Mamoru Maki looked down at the cat squatting at his feet, very helpless: "Didn't Kyoko take you back to the room? It seems that you are a cat who can only open the door."

Of course, this uncle is not a real cat!

Atobe slandered in his heart, and suddenly discovered the misunderstanding in his thinking all along.

He is now a cat in Shinaki's eyes—a cat who can't understand human words, does whatever he wants, acts arbitrarily, and makes humans helpless.

Then he can do whatever he wants!

Thinking, Atobe followed the door pushed open by Mamoru Maki, and walked into the room openly.

"You're really welcome."

Complaining like this, Mamoru Maki didn't stop Atobe.

Maki Mori's room is slightly larger than Maki Anko's room, but it is also old and simple.The only decoration in the room is a photo wall, on which there are photos of Mamoru and animals over the years.

After looking at it for a while, he didn't find the black cat in the group photo. Atobe leaned against the table and looked at the photo album that Mamoru Maki just took out.

"Want to see it?"

Mamoru Shinaki sat back in the chair and opened the photo album in front of him, "I haven't seen these photos for a long time..."

The photo in the album was a group photo of Sanmu's family more than ten years ago, and it was placed on the first page, but Zhenmu looked at it for a long time.

Until Atobe had to remember the appearance of Maki Xing when she was a child, Maki Mori finally turned to the next page.

However, the next page is almost full of photos of Maki Xing when she was three or four years old: the one holding a puppy, riding a pony, being splashed with mud by animals...

The album appears to be organized in reverse chronological order.The more you turn back, the younger and younger Maki Mamoru becomes.

In the same way, Atobu noticed with sharp eyes that the background behind Mamoru Shinaki in the photo was becoming more and more luxurious.

Atobe looked at the decoration of the room in the photo, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

That idiot Maki-Xing said that Maki's family used to be a local rich man, but Maki's family environment when he was a teenager may be comparable to his father's when he was a teenager.

What kind of rich man is this?

If Mamoru Maki could manage well at the beginning, perhaps it would not be worse than the Atobe family now.

No... not right.

Atobe thinks of his father's achievements after he came to power-the Atobe family started from his great-grandfather's time.But it was after his father managed the company that really brought the group to the top.

Even if Mamoru Maki doesn't open a zoo, he probably can't be compared with his father.

Atobe raised his head, Mamoru Maki seemed to be in a daze looking at the photos of himself when he was young, and rubbed the spine of the book unconsciously with his fingers.

In the photo, Maki is an upright young man with high spirits.Looking at Mamoru Maki in front of him again, there are many white hairs in the hair, and there is unconcealable fatigue in the eyes and eyebrows.

"If I hadn't met it then..."

Suddenly, Atobe seemed to hear Mamoru Maki's murmur.His ears moved slightly, and he wanted to capture more, but was pushed by Mamoru Maki.

"It's getting late, I'm going to bed too. I'll take you back to Kyoko's room."

Saying that, Mamoru Maki stretched out his hand to hug Atobe, and Atobe hurriedly walked out of the room in shock.

The experience of being "hugged" by Renzu once is still printed on his shame column, and he doesn't want to be hugged by others again.

The footsteps coming out were too hasty, Atobe remembered another thing he saw in the drawer of Maki Mori, and was about to turn around to take another look, but the door behind him was quickly closed by Maki Mori.

When the door was closed, Mamoru Maki could still be heard whispering: "Why do you seem to understand human speech?"

Maki Anko had a dream.

In the dream, she saw her father when she was young.

Wearing a black school uniform, he walked out of the school with his classmates, talking and laughing.When passing a certain intersection, he stopped suddenly.

San Muxing followed her father's footsteps into the gloomy alley, and she saw her father pick up a black, bloody "thing" from the stinking trash can.

Its appearance was so miserable that Maki Xing couldn't even tell whether it was a cat or a dog, so she couldn't help getting closer.

However, at the same time as she took a step forward, the thing seemed to raise its head in response.

His pair of strange-colored eyes stared straight at Maki Xing, and in the blue eye, the golden part like the moon was still shining.

These eyes—

It's the black cat Atobe mentioned!

Maki Xing woke up suddenly, sat up from the bed, panting heavily.

"Have a nightmare?"

After turning into a cat, Atobu sleeps very lightly, and can be woken up by a little movement.

He stared at Maki Xing who was sitting on the bed, and he didn't know what he dreamed of. Her forehead was full of cold sweat, and her fingers were tightly clutching the corner of the quilt.

"You still have nightmares...it's not too gorgeous." Atobe couldn't help complaining, stood up, and turned on the lamp by the bed for her, "Go out and have a glass of water."

Under the faint orange halo, Atobe's disgusted expression softened a lot.

Maki Xing looked at him for a while, seemed to finally come back to her senses, swallowed her throat, nodded and said: "...En."

Standing alone in the kitchen, drinking a whole glass of cold water suddenly, Maki Xing finally woke up from that dream.

She didn't know what the dream meant—was it something that happened in the past, or was it her obsession to help the trace department find the black cat, so she thought about it every day and dreamed about it at night.

But the dream was so realistic that she couldn't help but choose to believe that this was what happened.

She remembered every wound on that black cat, and it wasn't something she could weave in a dream by relying on obsession.

However, if her dream is something that actually happened——

Her father saved the black cat.

The black cat turned Atobe into a cat and sent it to Maki's house.

So, it is because of their family that Atobe became what it is now? !
