Chapter 118 The Daily Life of Raising an Internet Celebrity Cat
When did it get there?
Yu Liu found it strange. White things are more conspicuous in the dark, let alone a completely white dove. She had glanced at it casually when she entered the study, and she did not recall seeing any doves outside the window.
If it wasn't the first one to stand there, then it must have been one that stood there later. But it's pitch black now, and birds like pigeons are completely invisible at night. How did it manage to fly so precisely to the branch?
Unlike Yu Liu's doubt and relaxation, the orange cat had completely lowered its body, its eyes fixed on the white doves outside the window. Its right paw rose silently, and it had completely entered hunting mode.
The white doves stood quietly outside the window, seemingly motionless.
"Little Meow—"
Yu Liu wanted to reach out and stop the orange cat, but the white dove was standing outside the window. Even if it wanted to catch it, there was still a window in between. The computer desk was also some distance from the window. Judging from the orange cat's stealthy posture, it would take at least ten minutes to get there. Even if it did get there, wouldn't it just crash into the glass without opening the window?!
The orange cat remained completely unaffected by Yu Liu's voice, its demeanor unchanged, though its claws had already extended. Yu Liu saw this clearly, hesitated for a moment before reaching out, and ultimately failed to touch the orange cat.
What if I disturbed her and she gave me a good whack... I don't even want to think about it, it would definitely hurt!
Yu Liu shamefully chickened out.
Since there was no way to stop Xiao Miao, finding a way to drive away the pigeon would also be a way to stop Xiao Miao from "suicidally crashing into the glass." Yu Liu jumped off the swivel chair, ran to the window, thought for a moment, and then tentatively knocked on the glass.
The white dove was standing very close to the window, probably only about 30 centimeters away. The noise from the window should have alerted it.
"bang bang bang-"
The sound of knocking on the glass was particularly loud in the quiet night, but the white dove was not affected at all, and did not even change its posture.
Why aren't you moving?
Yu Liu muttered something strange to herself, then glanced back at the orange cat that had somehow gotten off the computer desk. After thinking for a moment, Yu Liu opened the window.
It's about 30 centimeters away. You should be able to reach it by stretching your arm, right?
Yu Liu dragged a chair and placed it under the window. The window wasn't high, and Yu Liu could reach it by standing on tiptoe, but she needed a tool to reach out.
After climbing onto the chair, Yu Liu reached out and measured the distance. When she felt it was about right, she slowly stretched out her hand and tried to grab the pigeon outside.
The pigeons seemed oblivious, remaining motionless on the branch.
"Little pigeon, be good, okay? Don't peck me, I..."
Yu Liu chattered on and on, trying to ease her nervousness. She didn't know why, but she kept feeling quite uneasy.
However, before Yu Liu could finish speaking, the pigeon that had been motionless finally stretched its neck and opened its tightly closed eyes.
Yu Liu finally realized that the pigeon had kept its eyes closed the whole time. Only when its eyes opened did Yu Liu understand why the orange cat was behaving so strangely.
An eerie red light poured out from the pigeon's eyes, very conspicuous. The pigeon slowly turned its head, gradually turning it toward Yu Liu.
“Puppet, puppet…hehehe…” Yu Liu’s eyes were fixed on the pigeon’s curved beak. The beak was not only sharp but also had a certain curve, much like the beak of an adult eagle. Yu Liu had no doubt that if this puppet pigeon pecked at her, a large chunk of flesh would be torn off her entire arm.
"...Hehe, no wonder I could see the way in the middle of the night..." Yu Liu chuckled, her embarrassment obvious. Since it was a puppet, it must be controlled by someone behind it. The fact that the other party could find this place so accurately was very likely the exorcist who hurt Xiao Miao!
The pigeon ignored Yu Liu's mutterings. Its wings, which had been folded to its sides, slowly unfolded, its movements nonchalant.
Yu Liu understood that the person behind the pigeon must be controlling it personally, and that the person was obviously very confident, believing that she and Xiao Miao were definitely his.
"What, what are you planning to do?" Yu Liu asked in a panic, spreading her arms out in front of her. She watched as the pigeon lowered its body slightly, preparing to push off with its feet.
Just as the pigeon's feet provided upward elasticity, its wings spread, and it was about to take flight, Yu Liu finally stopped pretending.
"Get down here!"
Changing her palm into a blade, Yu Liu leaped up, stretching her arm straight out, her hand covered in a layer of willpower, and struck the pigeon's outstretched wing directly.
With one wing struck, the pigeon's body, which had just taken off, immediately tilted to the side. Just when Yu Liu thought it was going to fall, the severed wing suddenly flapped twice and was surprisingly undamaged. During its descent, it quickly adjusted its body and soared into the sky once more.
It was incredibly fast. Yu Liu only felt a flash of red light before her eyes, and the pigeon brushed past her body, entering the study through the open window. Its target was the orange cat that had already reached the window.
"Little Meow—"
Yu Liu was extremely anxious. Little Meow was currently powerless, and if she were hit by this pigeon, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The orange cat reacted very quickly. Its eyes were fixed on the pigeon. After the pigeon took off, its head turned as well, as if its eyes could keep up with the speed of the pigeon. When the pigeon flew towards it, its fur suddenly stood up, and its low body arched up like a spring. It suddenly sprang up and jumped nearly a meter high.
The pigeon missed its target, flying too fast to stop effectively, and struck the floor of the room with a loud bang, sending pebbles flying. Using the force of the impact, the pigeon actually turned around and flew back into the air, seemingly without any obvious damage.
The flying pebbles terrified Yu Liu. Luckily, the blow hit the ground; if it had hit Xiao Miao...
The orange cat adjusted its body in mid-air, flicked its tail, and landed safely.
Yu Liu looked at the orange cat, which had moved further away from her, and flicked her right hand. Her willpower twisted into a rope, which she threw out and quickly wrapped around the orange cat that had just landed.
Just as Yu Liu was about to use her wish power to pull the orange cat to her side to protect it, bursts of golden light suddenly erupted in the room, stinging Yu Liu's eyes and causing her to reflexively shed tears.
Yu Liu wanted to raise her hand to cover her eyes, but for some reason, she suddenly felt dizzy. Before her brain could even process what she was thinking, darkness swallowed her thoughts.
"jingle--"
Yu Liu's figure vanished suddenly, leaving behind a cat bell that was still ringing.
