Chapter 35 The Cat's Tracking
I skipped class on Monday.
The young lady has connections everywhere.
The target's information was sent over last night.
Jiang Kun, male, 24 years old, junior high school graduate, lives at...
Gu Zhibei observed his surroundings and got out of the taxi.
"There's a small park behind here? Perfect for hiding my clothes."
Gu Zhibei found a secluded bush and, after confirming that there were no surveillance cameras around, transformed into a tabby cat.
He stuffed his clothes and phone into the empty bag he had brought.
"It's seven in the morning, there's still plenty of time, we can take our time."
He walked into the residential area.
According to the information, Jiang Youyu's second uncle runs a small building materials store, and his family's financial situation is considered quite good among ordinary people.
The neighborhood I live in is in a very good location.
Unfortunately, the ancestral grave had poor feng shui, resulting in a gambling addict.
Gu Zhibei arrived at the target building.
Originally, he planned to wait for the other party to come out before following them.
Fortunately, the other party lived on the third floor.
Very short.
Looking at the protruding eaves of the building, Gu Zhibei took a few steps, pushed off with his hind legs, and successfully climbed to the second-floor balcony using the water pipe.
Tabby cats are already superhuman among cats, and this one seems even more agile than ordinary cats, easily climbing to higher floors.
Gu Zhibei repeated it and climbed to the third-floor balcony.
He tiptoed inside. The living room was empty, but a faint aroma of rice porridge lingered in the air, likely from not long ago.
"Apart from one room with the door closed, there was no one else."
Gu Zhibei quickly checked the room.
It seems that Uncle Jiang and his wife left early, as there was still warm white rice porridge in the rice cooker.
So, that room must be Jiang Kun's bedroom, Jiang Youyu's cousin.
Gu Zhibei narrowed his eyes slightly.
He specifically checked the living room carefully and found no surveillance cameras.
That's very convenient.
The tabby cat tried turning the doorknob in the bedroom, and to everyone's surprise, the door opened immediately.
Wasn't it locked?
Gu Zhibei silently observed the situation inside.
A pungent smell of alcohol immediately filled his nostrils.
A short, thin young man was fast asleep on the bed.
Seeing this, Gu Zhibei had no more reservations and swaggered in.
He jumped onto the bedside table and saw the young man's face clearly.
It matches the appearance in the documents perfectly.
well.
You almost caused Jiang Youyu to lose her home, and you turned me into a rich young lady's pet. And you still have the mind to drink and sleep?
A cold glint flashed in the tabby cat's eyes.
But he suppressed the restlessness in his heart.
Each time he transforms into a cat, it takes him an hour to transform back into a human.
Scratching him with just a cat's paw is way too lenient on this guy!
How can you appease the cat's anger without giving him a good beating?
Time flew by, and soon an hour had passed.
Gu Zhibei transformed back into a human and left a note on the bedside table.
Then, he used a blanket to bind the young man's body.
He then grabbed a wet rag and smeared it on the other person's face.
Finally, the boy raised his fist.
boom! boom! boom!
The boy raised his hand and threw three punches, each one heavier than the last, causing the unconscious young man to scream in agony.
Gu Zhibei was very careful; he didn't touch his temples, which could be fatal.
He targeted areas like the sides of the nose and cheekbones—places that would hurt terribly but wouldn't cause serious injury or death.
The young man woke up screaming from his sleep, but his face was covered by something, making it impossible to see anything, and even breathing was extremely difficult.
He tried to struggle, but his limbs, already weak and limp from alcoholism, seemed to be wrapped up by something, making it impossible for him to break free.
"Ah! You fucking—!"
"Still dare to yell?" Gu Zhibei punched him several more times.
He only stopped when the young man's screams became hoarse, and quickly transformed into a cat and scurried under the bed.
...
Fuck!
What a bastard!
Jiang Kun ripped the rag off his face, the excruciating pain stimulating his nerves.
Damn it, before that guy stopped, he deliberately kicked a certain spot.
Only when the pain gradually subsided did he manage to sit up in bed, panting heavily.
The room was empty.
When did you run away?!
"hiss--"
Jiang Kun touched his face, and another sharp pain shot through him.
It's completely swollen!
My face and eyes were almost closed!
Damn, your mother really went all out!
He wanted to get something cold to put on his face, but suddenly he saw a piece of white paper on the bedside table.
There were also a few large, crooked characters written on the paper.
[Tonight at midnight]
[Refusing to repay the money]
【die!!!】
Hold!!
The instant the handwriting became clear.
Jiang Kun was terrified, his soul nearly leaving his body.
He quickly took out his phone and dialed a number:
"Brother Li, Master Li, it's me! Little Kunzi!"
"I just want to ask you to give me a few more days..."
"My dad got money! My dad really got money! In just a few days—"
The phone went dead; the call was disconnected.
Jiang Kun stared blankly at the screen.
After a while, he came to his senses, hurriedly put on his clothes, and stumbled out of the house.
A moment later, a tabby cat crawled out from under the bed.
He stared at the figure in the living room until the person ran out in a panic.
The door wasn't even closed.
Gu Zhibei took a step and followed closely behind him.
After leaving the residential area, Jiang Kun walked through three streets and finally stopped in front of a car repair shop.
He hesitated outside the store for a long time before nervously walking in.
The store was crowded, so Gu Zhibei could only crawl under a car to secretly observe the situation inside.
He saw Jiang Kun find a burly, strong man and grovel before him, saying something obsequious.
Then they were led to a hidden door inside the house.
Gu Zhibei glanced around.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him for the time being, he quickly ran up behind the burly man.
The noise inside the auto repair shop, along with the sound dampening effect of his pads, ensured that his actions went unnoticed by anyone.
"...Haha, I'm just here to talk to Master Li about something. I'll pay you back soon!" Jiang Kun said obsequiously.
Gu Zhibei had no interest in listening to what they were saying, and instead turned his gaze to the small door that was slightly ajar.
The light inside was very dim, but fortunately, the cat's night vision was good enough to ignore it.
He saw a staircase leading straight down, and at the end of the staircase, he could see half of a gambling table.
So, it really is an underground casino?
"That's strange, where did this cat come from!"
Suddenly, a voice came from behind Gu Zhibei.
The two people who had been facing away from him immediately turned their gazes toward him.
The tabby cat thought to itself, "This is bad luck," and dashed away.
This group of people will absolutely not show mercy to small animals.
However, he has already achieved his goal.
Gu Zhibei returned to the small park where he had hidden his clothes, transformed back into a human, and took out his phone.
Concerned citizens called the police.
